Title

Rancho Las Flores Specific Plan Amendment and Williamson Act Contract Cancellation

Description

The amendment includes the elimination of the golf course within Village 1 which was previously eliminated by administrative action of the City and was subsequently proposed for a recreational lake/swim club and is now proposed to be developed as a community park and a swim park; the elimination of a potable water treatment plant, relocation of the proposed wastewater plant to the Rancho Las Flores Ranch pastures, the development of several parks including a 60-acre community sports park, a 40-acre community park, a 25-acre lake amenity and up to 49-acres of scattered neighborhood parks. The 9,867 acre Rancho Las Flores Specific Plan will result in the following: 15,995 residential dwelling units at varying land use densities on approximately 3,810 acres, approximately 87-acres of neighborhood commercial uses, a 314-acre town center; and a variety of public facilities including schools, parks, golf course, churches, day care, fire station site, etc on 642 acres, and open space lincluding the 490 acre historic Las Flores Ranch. The combination of parks, recreation, preserve areas and natural open space will cover approximately 5,063 acres or 51% of the total project area. In addition, approximately 325.1 acres of related infrastructure (roads, bridges, etc.) will be constructed on the site. In addition to the proposed residential and commercial development, a variety of public facilities, such as schools, library, utilities, and other civic facilities are to be incorporated within proposed rsidential areas as special uses. The devleopment of the community is expected to take place over a period of approximately 15 years. The phasing and duration of development will be determined by several factors. These factors include the rate of infrastructure provisions, local and regional economic and housign trends, landowner and public agency decisions, and project prioritization. The phasing of development may not necessarily coincide with village boundaries. California Aqueduct runs through the site.
