BACKGROUND The applicant has submitted a tentative subdivision map in which he proposes to divide 68 acres into 220 single family residential lots, 2 open space lots and 7 lots reserved for future residential use. The property is on the north side of Telegraph Canyon Road between Paseo Ladera and Buena Vista Way in the P-C zone. Council recently released this area from the moratorium which has existed in E1 Rancho del Rey for approximately a year. B. DISCUSSION 1. Existing Site Characteristics a. The project site, containing 68 acres, is located on the north side of Telegraph Canyon Road between Paseo Ladera and Buena Vista Way and has 662 feet of frontage along Telegraph Canyon Road. Topographically the site has an average natural slope of 21% and is traversed by an east/west ridge with a westerly draining canyon located on the north side of the ridge. The Telegraph Canyon drainage channel traverses the southerly portion of the site. Elevations range from 500 feet near the north central boundary to 345 feet near the southwest corner. The City of San Diego's 40" water main to the Otay Lakes crosses a small portion of the southwest corner of the site. b. The property is located within the La Nacion Fault zone. Recent work indicates that the main fault trace is located west of the northwest property line while a second inferred fault trace is shown east of the eastern property line. The site also has a variety of native plant materials, some of which are biologically sensitive and therefore are addressed in the Environmental Impact Report.

Tentative subdivision map. a. The subdivision will consist of 220 single family residential lots, 2 open space lots, and 7 lots for future residential use. The average lot size is 7,650 sq. ft. while the minimum lot size is 5500 sq. ft. and the maximum is 15,000 sq. ft. Approximately 27% of the residential lots are less than 7,000 sq. ft. Seven lots are in the 5,000 to 5,999 sq. ft. range, and 52 lots are in the 6,000 to 6,999 sq. ft. range. b. The proposed subdivision will be developed in two phases. The first phase will consist of 113 residential lots and one open space lot containing 10.6 acres. Paseo Ladera will be extended approximately 1100 feet north of Sesame Street to the entrance of the tract. Telegraph Canyon Road, as well as the drainage channel, will be improved from the easterly subdivision boundary line on Telegraph Canyon Road to Paseo Ladera. Approximately two-thirds of this distance is across property not owned by the applicant. c. The second phase will consist of the remaining 107 lots and one open space lot containing 6.1 acres. In addition to extending the streets stubbed out from unit one, unit two will provide partial improvement of East "J" Street. A 10 acre school site, owned by the elementary school district, abuts the subdivision on the northeastern corner. The developer intends to pave a portion of East "J" Street from the eastern boundary to the proposed alignment of Paseo Ranchero which is planned between the subdivision and Buena Vista Way. The purpose of extending the paving is to provide a second access road to the proposed development at the time the property to the east is developed. This portion of East "J" Street would then link to Paseo Ranchero, which in turn will connect to Telegraph Canyon Road. 3. Hillside Standards Although the property is not subject to the Hillside Modifying District it does have an average natural slope of 21%. The Commission and Council have frequently asked staff to compare proposed development to the Hillside standards. If the proposed development were zoned R-1 and subject to the Hillside Modifying District, 46.25% of the site would have to be left ungraded. This amounts to 31.5 acres ungraded as compared to the proposed subdivision which leaves 14 acres ungraded. The "H" Modifying District would allow a density of 2.45 units per gross acre, or a maximum of 166 units as compared with 220 units being proposed. The grading concept involves cutting up to 35 feet off the ridge top and filling the canyon to the north of the ridge. Depth of fill in the canyon ranges up to 30 feet. 4. Parks The proposed revision to E1 Rancho del Rey General Development Plan calls for a neighborhood park adjacent to the proposed school site. This would be in keeping with the Parks and Recreation Element of the General Plan. The staff is studing two alternatives. The first alternative is to provide a 5 acre park within the boundaries of the proposed subdivision to the west of the school site. The developer has indicated the proposed park site on the map and has shown how it could be developed if not utilized for park purposes. If this site is chosen for park use it will eliminate 30 lots from the development. An alternative 10 acre park site location to the south of the school site is being considered. However, because of the topography, only 5 acres of the 10 acre parcel are ':usable for park purposes. Either site is acceptable to the Director of Parks and Recreation and staff is evaluating the difference in the cost of development and acquisition of both sites. A separate report will be presented to the Council, before the final map is filed. 5. Fencing The developer has submitted wall and fencing standards for the development which include a 4 foot high split faced masonry wall on those properties adjacent to the open space lots. This height will allow the property owners to take advantage of the views afforded by the open space. Noise from Telegraph Canyon Road will not be a factor due to the distance between the homes and the road. The developer should contact the Director of Building and Housing to have the Board of Appeals act on a blanket variance which would allow for the construction of swimming pools with a fence less than 5 feet in height. Item No. For Meeting of 2/14/78 Supplemental page 3 6. Off-Site Street Improvements The developer will be required to construct Telegraph Canyon Road from the westerly boundary of the tract to Paseo Ladera. He also has the responsibility (under the recommended conditions of approval) for the construction of Paseo Ladera to the entrance to the tract (Paseo Entrada). B.
