The first designs of the Northern Heights development will be looked over by the Riverside City Council.

The preliminary plat is the next step in beginning work on the new development that sits between Tulip Avenue and Tupelo Boulevard. The plat shows a total of 71 plots with room for both single- and multi-family homes. Riverside Mayor Allen Schneider says he hopes to start construction of the infrastructure as soon as the weather allows. The meeting will start at 6:30 p.m. Monday at City Hall.
