Downtown and Fulton Corridor Plans (in process)

El Dorado Park Neighborhood Plan (in process)
Approximately 27 acres in area, the El Dorado Park Neighborhood is generally bound by East Barstow Avenue to the north, North Fourth Street to the west, Bulldog Stadium (abutting fraternity row) to the east and East Bulldog Lane to the south. The area was originally envisioned as an area that primarily housed university students, however it is now home to many lower income families in search of affordable housing. In an effort to improve the area, both physically and economically, the City partnered with neighborhood residents, property owners and local institutions to develop a vision for revitalization of the area. After a 2-year planning process that involved community participation in over 50 meetings with over 300 stakeholders, the El Dorado Park Neighborhood Plan was adopted in October of 2009.

Community and Specific Plans

Community Plans

The City of Fresno is divided into nine Community Plan areas which were updated during the adoption of the 2025 Fresno General Plan. The plans are tailored to the specialized needs and concerns of the identifiable Community Plan areas and provide and discuss existing conditions (i.e. trends, planning issues, etc.), while also providing recommendations and/or guidelines that act as blueprints for the relative plan area.

Specific Plans

Unlike the General Plan or Community Plans which act as blueprints for relatively large geographic areas, Specific Plans focus on neighborhoods that contain certain characteristics that are deemed desirable or reflect a certain planning trend. It should be noted that only a small portion of the city is located within a Specific Plan area, although all areas are within a Community Plan. In addition, several of the Specific Plans have Plan Advisory Committees that review entitlements within the plan area.
