Pending ED1 Projects in Downtown Westchester are not in compliance with the Community Design Overlay (CDO) regarding 1st floor use limitations.

Here’s exact language from the existing Downtown Westchester CDO:

Requiring ground floor use be limited in this way ensures future residents will have the local services and retail they need. It supports Downtown Westchester as a flourishing, walkable community center.

Both 8820 Sepulveda and 8819 Sepulveda Eastway applications show ground floor plans that include residential use, in violation of the current CDO.
