The project consists of a 60-acre parcel to be subdivided into 141 lots of estate residential development. A maximum of 140 residential lots, ranging from approximately one-quarter to one-half acre in size, and one sump lot would be developed. The applicant is in the process of obtaining surface waivers from mineral owners for development of the southeast corner of the site. Should the surface waivers not be obtained, a 3.6-acre drilling island would be provided to assure that potentially productive petroleum resources are developed in a manner compatible with surrounding development. Should the surface waivers be obtained, the lots identified in the 2.6 acre area would be developed with single family homes. Discretionary actions include: a) An amendment to the Western Rosedale Specific Plan from Map Code R-IA (Resource-Intensive Agriculture) to Map Code SR (Suburban Residential-less than or equal to four dwelling units per net acre) or a more restrictive designation (SPA 70, Map 101); b) A change in zone classification from A (Exclusive Agriculture) to E (1/4) (Estate, 1/4 acre minimum parel size) and DI (Drilling Island) or more restrictive zone districts (ZC 157, Map 101); c) Exclusion of approximately 60 acres from the boundaries of Agricultural Preserve No. 9; and 10) Approval of Tentative Tract No. 6618.
