Mira Mesa Community Plan Update

Mira Mesa Community Plan Update

The proposed Mira Mesa Community Plan Update and associated discretionary actions (collectively referred to as the “project”) entails a comprehensive update to the Mira Mesa Community Plan, which is intended to guide future development of the Mira Mesa Community Plan area (Community Plan area). In addition to adoption of the Mira Mesa Community Plan Update, the project includes: adoption of amendments to the General Plan to incorporate the Community Plan land use designations and update the Economic Prosperity Element including Figure EP-1, Industrial and the Prime Industrial Land, for the Community Plan area; adoption of a Rezone Ordinance rezoning land within the Community Pan area to be consistent with the Mira Mesa Community Plan Update; adoption of an Ordinance amending the San Diego Municipal Code Section 132.1402 to adopt a new Community Plan Implementation Overlay Zone (CPIOZ) for the Community Plan area; amendment to the City’s Land Development Manual Historical Resources Guidelines; approval of a request for adjustments to the inland boundary of the Coastal Zone pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 30103(b) and 14 C.C.R. Section 13255.2 et seq. by the California Coastal Commission; and certification of the PEIR and adoption of Findings, Statement of Overriding Considerations, and Mitigation, Monitoring and Reporting Program for the project. These actions together with the proposed Mira Mesa Community Plan Update form the project for this PEIR. The project entails a comprehensive update to the Mira Mesa Community Plan, which is intended to guide future development in the Community Plan area. It articulates an overall vision, designates land uses, and provides a comprehensive set of policies for new development within the Community Plan area. The project provides community-specific policies that further implement the General Plan with respect to the distribution and arrangement of land uses and the local street and transit network, implementation of urban design, recommendations preserving and enhancing natural open space and historic and cultural resources, and the prioritization and provision of public facilities within the Mira Mesa community. The project maintains existing employment areas and identifies new and expanded mixed-use urban village areas that would allow increased density and residential uses. The project also enhances community connections with a comprehensive network of complete streets, urban paths, and paseos.
