REQUEST: The Specific Plan proposes a maximum of 11,350 dwelling units to be constructed within seven (7) villages within 2,786 Gross Acres. The proposed land uses include: Medium High Residential (MH) (5 - 8 Dwelling Units per Acre) for 2,520 dwelling units on 490 Gross Acres; High Residential (H) (8 - 14 Dwelling Units per Acre) for 3,310 units on 371 Gross Acres; Very High Residential (VH) (14 - 22 Dwelling Units per Acre) for 2,420 units on 183 Gross Acres; Mixed Use Town Center (MU) for 3,100 units and 500,000 square feet of commercial on 288 Gross Acres; Public Facilities (PF) on 59 Gross Acres; Public Facilities/Open Space (PF/OS) on 95 Gross Acres; Parks on 155 Gross Acres ; Open Space (OS) on 998 Gross Acres; and 147 acres of right-of-way (ROW). General Plan Amendment No. 720 involves a Foundation change from Rural/Agricultural and Open Space to Community Development and changing the underlying land use designations from; Medium Density Residential (2-5 Dwelling Units per Acre); Low Density Residential (1/2 Acre Minimum); Very Low Density Residential (1 Acre Minimum); Light Industrial; Public Facility; Retail; Agriculture; Rural Mountainous; and, Conservation, to a Community Development Specific Plan (SP) land use designation. General Plan Amendment No. 721 proposes an amendment to the Circulation Element to delete, modify or add any Circulation Element roadways interior to or along the boundary of the Specific Plan to implement the roadway network illustrated in Exhibit B.2.6C - General Plan Roadway Classifications. This Exhibit is available for inspection through the contacts or at the location identified below in this notice. Key changes proposed to the County Circulation Element include, but are not limited to: the elimination of Yucca Avenue as a through street within the project boundary, the rerouting of 10th Street/Wolfskill Avenue as an Arterial and Secondary roadway east of Hansen Avenue. (The existing alignment of Wolfskill will remain a local street east of Hansen and will not be upgraded.) Hansen Avenue along the project boundary will be reclassified from a Major roadway (118' right-of-way) to a Collector Street, and Bridge Street, 3rd Street, 5th Street, and 6th Street will be eliminated on the project site and will not have direct access to Ramona Expressway as access to Ramona will be shifted to Town Center and Park Center Boulevards exclusively in this vicinity. Additionally, the above General Plan Amendment will amend the Circulation Element Trails and Bikeways System to include the Community Trail designation for a number of the trails proposed within the project boundary. A view of all the proposed trails within the project area is shown on Exhibit B.8.18.b, Project Trails Plan which is available for inspection through the contacts or at the location identified below in this notice. The Change of Zone is a request to change the zoning of the subject properties from A-1-10, A-2-10, A-P, C-P-S, C-R, M-SC, R-1, R-A, R-A-1, R-A-10, R-A-21/2, and R-R Zone to Specific Plan (SP). The Project is also proposing a Zoning Ordinance to implement the Specific Plan. The Environmental Impact Report analyzes the environmental impacts of the proposed project.
