Ordinance - Amending Zoning Ordinance regarding change of zone for 52 acres
located north of Otay Lakes Road, approximately one-half mile west of
Bonita High School, from R-E and R-1-1- to R-1-10-P - Second reading and
INITIATED BY: Director of Planning adoption
BACKGROUND
On October 10, 1973 the Planning Corrnnission held a public hearing to consider rezoning
52 acres north of Otay Lakes Road, approximately 1/2 mile west of Bonita High School
from R-E and R-1-10 to R-1-10-P.
Adjacent areas Zonin9 Land Use
North R-E Vacant
South A-1 (8) Vacant (County)
East R-E & R-1-10 Vacant
West A-1 (8) Vacant (County)
The present zoning of R-E on approximately 7 acres and R-1-10 on approximately 45 acres
requires minimum lot sizes of 20,000 and 10,000 sq. ft. respectively. The applicant
has submitted a tentative map known as Ranchito Robinhood which proposes 72 homes
on the 52 acres, for a gross density of less than 1 .4 dwelling units per acre. A
small percentage of the lots are proposed at less than 10,000 sq. ft. but are
considered adequate building sites. Proposed lot sizes will vary from approximately
8100 sq. ft. to 22,500 sq. ft. with average lot size of nearly 14,000 sq. ft.
The property has an average natural slope of 24.5%. The City' s proposed Hillside
Ordinance would allow approximately 70 dwellings with a maximum of 40% grading on
the site. The proposed plan minirtiizes the on-site grading, leaving about 50% of the
site ungraded and undisturbed. This area will be placed in an open space maintenance
district together with some graded areas adjacent to Otay Lakes Road. It should be
noted that a large percentage of the grading required for this project is a direct
result of the widening of Otay Lakes Road which cannot be attributed to this develop-
ment alone.
This ordinance was placed on first reading at the meetinK of Octob r 30, 1973.
