SunCal Homes San Francisquito Development On Hold Again
The residents in San Francisquito keep fighting back, and winning. The large home builder, SunCal, is interested in developing a piece of land just north of Copperhill in the San Francisquito area, long known for its equestrian feel.
SunCal had an original plan to develop 60 homes, each with a varying lot size, however nearby existing residents argued that the lot sizes would not accommodate the housing of horses since it is after all an equestrian community. SunCal argued that the lot sizes indeed were sufficient and the plan for the 185 acre development fit in with the existing theme of San Francisquito. The department of regional planning for Los Angeles county disagreed and sent SunCal back to the drawing board.
SunCal came back this year in March and offered their new solution to the problem, by reducing the number of homes to be built to 45 from 60. This would increase the average lot sizes in theory and lay rest to some concerns. It is noted that SunCal planned on lot sizes ranging from 15,000 to 60,000 sq ft. Because the community consists of two different zoning requirements, SunCal would not be required to adhere to the 2 acre minimum lot sizes.
The department of regional planning for Los Angeles County yet again struck down the development plan, and has asked SunCal to change the plan to reflect each lot to be a minimum of 1 acre and report back to the Los Angeles subdivision committee. After the committee has reviewed the revised map the decision will be back up for review with the Board of Supervisors on June 26th of this year.
