Neighborhood Profile

The General Plan suggests no basic change in the existing pattern of development and shows a density of three dwelling units to the acre. There are several hillside areas surrounding the Bel Air subdivision which were not included as a part of this subdivision. It would be best if these areas remained as open spaces in the future. If not, however, great care should be exercised in the design of these areas to adjust development to the topography.
