Vista Ranch Project

Vista Ranch Project

The Project Area is approximately 952 acres, all of which is currently located in the City’s Planning Area and would be incorporated into the City’s sphere of influence (SOI). The Project area includes (1) the approximately 507-acre Vista Ranch Master Plan and (2) the approximately 445-acre Non-Development Area. The Vista Ranch Master Plan contemplates the construction of up to 3,286 residential units, approximately 16 acres of commercial/mixed-uses, approximately 19 acres for an elementary school site, approximately 32 acres for mini-storage, and approximately 59 acres of parks, trails and preserved open space. The Master Plan is divided into two distinct planning areas: (1) MPArea 1, an approximately 368-acre area proposed for immediate development, and (2) MPArea 2, the remaining approximately 139 acres that is anticipated for future development. The principal objective of the proposed Project is the expansion of the City’s SOI to include the Project site, annexation, master planning, and subsequent development of land to accommodate growth. The City has established several additional project goals and objectives that more fully inform the Project purpose. The proposed Project also includes the installation of new roadways that will provide pedestrian and vehicular access to the Project site, and other improvements, including water supply, storm drainage, sewer facilities and landscaping to serve the residential uses. A detailed project description is provided in the Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR).
