1 Preston Street Project

1 Preston Street Project

The proposed project is located at 1 Preston Street in Salinas, California. The project site is comprised of a single parcel, Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) 003-161-008-000. The 1 Preston Street Project would involve a General Plan Amendment (GPA) and Rezone (RZ) to modify the existing land use and zoning designations of the vacant 2.6-acre lot at 1 Preston Street. The proposed GPA would change the General Plan land use designation of Residential Medium Density (8-15 units/acre) to Residential High Density (15-20 units/acre). The RZ would change the zoning from Residential Medium Density (R-M-3.6) to Residential High Density (R-H-2.1). The purpose of the proposed GPA and RZ is to facilitate the production of high-density housing, consistent with the City’s General Plan. The GPA and RZ would affect 2.6 acres and would facilitate the development of up to approximately 76 housing units (anticipating a density bonus) across approximately 129,202 square feet. The project is intended to encourage the development of higher density development that would provide new housing that would be consistent with the Salinas General Plan. This project is being partially funded by a Senate Bill 2 grant.
