The subject parcels are located along Halcon Road at the southerly boundary of the City limits. Current zoning allows for a minimum lot size of 2.5 to 10 acres depending on certain site characteristics. The proposed General Plan Amendment and Rezoning would create a 17 unit small lot single-family development (“The Groves”) encompassing 10 acres of the project site at the Viejo Camino and Halcon intersection and increase the density of the remaining 27.7 acres of the project site (“Neighbor Parcels”) to allow for 1 primary dwelling unit per acre. There are currently 6 existing units within the project area. The proposal would increase the number of primary units to a maximum of 45 residential units. The highest density (17 units) will be located on the property at the corner of Viejo Camino and Halcon Road (“The Groves”). The Groves development will preserve a portion of the existing oak woodland grove on the southeast corner of the property in permanent open space easements. Nineteen (19) native trees are proposed for removal as part of The Groves development.
