Pending Property Developments For Rowland Heights
Prior to developing a property or before building a non-conforming structure or initiating a non-conforming use on an existing parcel the developer must obtain approval of the Los Angeles County Department of Regional Planning (DRP). As part of its review process the DRP requires applicants with proposals for the Rowland Heights area to meet with the Development Committee of the RHCCC to enable community review and response. Listed below are links to DRP files for developments and proposals that are currently under consideration for our area. Those links that are marked with an asterisk are to large files that take several minutes to load if you are connecting via a 56k modem.
