Present Land Use
Existing Land Use: Single-Family Residential/Undeveloped; General Plan: 1B (Suburban residential); Zoning: Coto de Caza Specific Plan
Document Description
The proposed Project includes the subdivision of the 16.1 acre Project Site into seven residential lots, including the existing single-family lot. The existing single-family home will be retained and remodeled on Lot 1 that will contain approx. 1.09 acres with a development pad of approx. 18,550 sq. ft. The six additional residential lots -- Lots 2 through 7 -- will be developed with new single-family homes. These six lots will range from approx. 1.15 acres to approx. 4.18 acres; the development pads will range from approx. 16,530 sq. ft. to approx. 28,030 sq. ft. (net developable area). The new residential lots were designed to respect the ridgelines, and to be relatively secluded from existing homes to the north and south. The proposed lots lie significantly below both the primary ridgeline to the northwest and below the three secondary ridgelines that fall from northwest to southeast, with the two flanking secondary ridgelines continuing to fall beyond the Project Site toward Coto de Caza Drive.
Although a building pad will be created within each new residential lot, the construction of the homes and their appurtenant facilities and amenities would occur on a subsequent lot-by-lot basis. All of the proposed homes will comply with the development standards and regulations for Low Density Residential development set forth in the Coto de Caza Specific Plan, as well as with additional standards and regulations that will be set forth in a new Via Terracaleta Custom Estates Area Plan that will be prepared as part of the Project. In particular, to improve compatibility with the existing homes in Planning Area 5, the new home sites will be limited in terms of their development envelop and maximum building height, and will also be regulated in terms of permitted roof and exterior wall colors.
