Central Healdsburg Avenue Plan (CHAP)
The Central Healdsburg Avenue Plan area is located in the
southern portion of Healdsburg. At its center is the existing
railroad, which will be used in the future for a SMART station to
connect the City to the larger region. This area shares a Mill Street
border with two other character areas, most notably Healdsburg’s
Downtown Core, making the CHAP area an important entry into
the downtown.
The Central Healdsburg Avenue Plan (CHAP) establishes goals
and design guidelines for future public infrastructure and private
investment in this area. Ultimately, this area will be transformed
into an important transit-focused area. As such, pedestrian-
friendly development that lines street frontages and creates
opportunities for mixed use, residential and commercial uses is
key to creating a vibrant area. Parking should be located at the
rear of a new development to prevent interrupting the street wall
and active uses.
The CHAP provides design guidelines for a variety of topics,
and should be referenced when designing a project here. If
CENTRAL HEALDSBURG more information about design topics not covered in this Plan is
