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
