University Industrial Park

Merced

Description

A proposal to change the general plan land use and zoning on about 376 acres from industrial to a mix of business park, general commercial, and residential, potentially adding 1,000–2,300 housing units. The council approved the environmental study that starts the process.

Impact summary

If approved later, the area could see business park jobs and a large wave of new housing near Campus Parkway — the project will still go through planning commission and council hearings.
