Palazzo Planned Community

Palazzo Planned Community

The project proposes an annexation into the City of Calexico, a General Plan Amendment, Specific Plan, Pre-Zoning, and a Tentative Map. The Palazzo Specific Plan proposes to construct a maximum of 1,231 residential units, a mixed use village center, a regional park, pedestrian linkages and streets, retention basin, and an optional school facility. The residential units consist primarily of multi family homes, 4-plex and 6-plex townhomes, and limited single-family patio homes. The proposed multi family units will have a density of 18 dwelling units per acre (du/ac), the 4-plex townhomes will have a density of 12 du/ac, 6-plex townhomes will hace 14 du/ac, and single family homes will have 7.5 du/ac. Additionally, a 16.36 acre regional park and open space area is planned. A 14.10 acre open retention basin is proposed as part of the project and would be landscaped. There are two scenarios to the proposed development; with a school and without a school; the above mentioned proposal is the maximum development without a school. If a school is included in development, the school would encompass 10.04 acres and would slightly reduce the number of multi-family and single-family residential units.
