Residential Redevelopment

Golden Valley is a fully developed community. New single-family housing will likely occur through the splitting of an existing lot or the tear down and rebuild of an existing home. New middle housing or multi-family housing will likely occur through the combining of existing lots. The City has processes in place to allow for these types of activities while protecting neighboring properties and homeowners from the disruptions associated with construction to the extent possible.

The process to split or combine lots is regulated through the City's Subdivision regulations found in City Code Chapter 109. Subdivisions are approved by City Council after a review by the Planning Commission. Tear down and rebuild actions are permitted by the Building Inspections Division.
