Redondo Beach voters will head to the polls on Election Day, November 3, 2026, to decide the fate of Measure ART. The ballot initiative seeks to modify the city General Plan and Zoning Ordinance to adjust local development standards.
Why it matters
The measure addresses specific land-use regulations that govern the look and density of business corridors. Changes to the city code could alter the scale and operation of future projects along major local thoroughfares.
Measure ART introduces amendments to the city General Plan and Zoning Ordinance. It specifically addresses floor area ratio limits, height restrictions, and rooftop dining regulations along the Artesia and Aviation boulevard corridors.

Political Context
Measure ART serves as a direct legislative challenge to the existing Redondo Beach General Plan. Opponents of the initiative often argue that such changes to zoning ordinances risk altering the character of established neighborhoods or exceeding local infrastructure capacities.
The passage of Measure ART would lead to new regulatory requirements for developers, potentially changing the types of businesses or structures that open along key boulevards. Residents can use the Los Angeles County election portal to access sample ballots and track their registration status ahead of the vote.
The takeaway
Voters should review the specific zoning adjustments outlined in the measure to understand how their neighborhood landscape may evolve. Understanding the registration deadlines is essential for those planning to cast a ballot in the upcoming local election.
