Project Documents


The Redding Riverfront Specific Plan process will involve the production of a wealth of technical studies, reports, and documents. These materials will provide background context to help inform the planning process, vision and guiding principles information based on community feedback, designs and concepts to help advance community discussions, and environmental analysis to help inform decisions. The following page includes all currently available documents and materials. The Project Team will update this page regularly as new materials become available. 


Vision and Guiding Principles Framework

The Redding City Council reviewed and accepted the Vision and Guiding Principles Framework during their meeting on January 16, 2024. The community's vision was developed based on extensive feedback, discussion, and refinement by the general public and the Community Coalition. This document is a foundational piece for the Redding Riverfront Specific Plan process and represents the overarching aspirational framework for how the community would like to see the area change, improve, and be enhanced in the future.
