Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Victorville public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Standards Update
The city is updating its zoning code to align with recent California ADU and JADU laws. These updates streamline permitting and allow up to eight detached ADUs on qualifying multifamily properties.
Objective Design Standards for Multi-Family Infill
Victorville is writing new objective design standards that will control how future apartment and multi-family buildings look and are laid out. Because state housing laws limit cities' subjective design review, these written standards are now the city's main tool for shaping development aesthetics — and residents' input now shapes what gets drafted.
Old Town Specific Plan Updates
The city is updating rules for the Old Town neighborhood to make it easier to host farmers' markets, put up temporary signs, and paint historic wall murals. These changes are designed to support local businesses and spark pedestrian activity ahead of the Route 66 centennial.
