Document Description
The Applicant is proposing a mix of multifamily dwelling/apartment units and business park uses, inclusive of some commercial and light industrial uses, streets, private drives, parking, other related infrastructure, and landscape/open space areas. The 146-acre Project site consists of two planning areas: • Planning Area 1 (PA-1): As many as 300 multifamily dwelling/apartment units and required parking, landscaping, and other on-site improvements on approximately eight acres, within the southeast portion of the Specific Plan Area (SPA). • Planning Area 2 (PA-2): Up to 1,500,000 square feet of business park uses, inclusive of some commercial and light industrial uses, required parking, landscaping, and other on-site improvements on approximately 63 acres, within the southwest and northeast portions of the SPA. In addition to the on-site development components, off-site improvements to the adjacent, approximately 30.1-acre, City-owned property to the north will be undertaken. As part of the off-site improvements, this property will be graded and ultimately developed with park improvements equivalent to the in-lieu fee set forth in subsection 17.51.010.E, Parkland Dedication or In-Lieu Fee, of the Santa Clarita Unified Development Code (UDC). The SPA would include grading of approximately 112.0 acres (6,903,310 cubic yards of cut and fill), which would balance on-site. To accommodate implementation of the proposed development, additional remedial grading may be required. Additionally, the Project would include off-site grading of approximately 88.3 acres (3,204,370 cubic yards of cut and fill) for the Crossroads/City Park Site (Santa Clarita Sports Complex). The Project site would be primarily accessed from Golden Valley Road and the future extension of Via Princessa. The extension of Via Princessa road project is a City project, under a separate review. Access to future residential and commercial development would be provided by proposed internal streets. Additionally, the project would extend Robert C. Lee Parkway via proposed internal streets, and connection to the Via Princessa road extension. It is anticipated that construction of the proposed Project would be initiated in mid-2026. The Project would be phased based on market demands, but it is anticipated that development would be completed within approximately 3-5 years. While grading of the entire site would be done as one phase, the timing of building construction would depend on market conditions at that time.
