Bella Monte, located between Willow Pass Road and the Pittsburg/Bay Point BART corridor, is a residential and hillside Bay Point neighborhood with curving cul-de-sacs and broad East Bay views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Willow Pass Road and Port Chicago Highway junction, where small taquerias, auto shops, and everyday services set a practical, on-the-go tone. Housing leans toward late-20th-century subdivisions with garages, short driveways, and pocket greenbelts stitched into the slopes. Nearby Bay Point Regional Shoreline frames the edge with marsh paths and open sky. Ambrose Park adds courts and open lawn for casual recreation. For local culture, the Pittsburg Theatre Company, California Theatre, and New Mecca Cafe in Old Town Pittsburg act as familiar anchors a short drive away.

Planned Unit District
A large-scale integrated development or a general plan special area of concern provides an opportunity for, and requires cohesive design when flexible regulations are applied; whereas the application of conventional regulation, designed primarily for individual lot development, to a large-scale development or special area may create a monotonous and inappropriate neighborhood. The planned unit district is intended to allow diversification in the relationship of various uses, buildings, structures, lot sizes and open space while insuring substantial compliance with the general plan and the intent of the county code in requiring adequate standards necessary to satisfy the requirements of the public health, safety and general welfare. These standards shall be observed without unduly inhibiting the advantages of large-scale site or special area planning.
