The Hollywood Community Plan (Council File 16-1019) governs land use, height districts, density, and mobility standards across Hollywood through 2035. Adopted in 2017 with subsequent amendments, it overlays LAMC zoning with neighborhood-specific design and parking rules.
The Hollywood Community Plan Update sets the long-range land use vision for Hollywood, Hollywood Hills, and East Hollywood. It establishes height districts ranging from 1L (low-rise residential) to 4D (high-rise mixed-use along transit corridors), inclusionary affordable housing targets, and mobility standards reducing parking minimums near Metro stations. New development must conform to the General Plan land use designation, applicable Q conditions, and Hollywood Redevelopment Plan provisions where they remain in effect. Discretionary approvals include site plan review for projects over 50,000 square feet or 50 units, and CEQA review tied to the certified Program EIR.
Projects inconsistent with the Plan are denied at entitlement. Construction beyond approved height, FAR, or density triggers stop-work orders, permit revocation, and fines under LAMC §11.00 enforcement.
