General Project Description

The City of Hesperia is seeking proposals from qualified consulting firms for a comprehensive update and restructuring of its Development Code (Title 16 of the Municipal Code). This project aims to modernize the Code, ensure clarity, consistency, and compliance with current State and Federal laws, and align with the City's General Plan, Housing Element, and Objective Design Standards.
