Rezoning would allow town house development

A town house development with 30 units would be built on Victoria Street between College and Thurin avenues in Costa Mesa, if the planning commission approves necessary rezoning Tuesday.

The “colonial revival”-style buildings would have balconies in front, and residents could walk pets on landscaped pathways around the site. To build the project, the developer would consolidate three lots totaling 1.68 acres. The units would be sold separately to individual owners.

The town homes would replace 18 existing units built in the 1940s and 1950s. The Costa Mesa planning commission meets at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday at 77 Fair Drive. To view the agenda visit www.ci-costa.mesa.ca.us.
