BACKGROUND
INFORMATION:
The area depicted in Final Tract Map (FTM)
19326 is located in the southeastern portion of unincorporated Orange County,
east of Ranch Canyon and north of Cow Camp Road, at the northwest corner of
Lamkin Lane and Scarlet Road, within the Ranch Plan Planned Community (RPPC).
The tract is located within Planning Area 3, Subarea 3.5 of the RPPC. FTM 19326
provides for the development of 74 legal lots on an 8.153-acre site for
condominium purposes: 43 numbered lots for planned concept two-family (duplex)
dwellings, four numbered lots for planned concept detached dwellings, one
numbered lot for a tot lot, five lettered lots for landscaping, eight lettered
lots for slope/landscape areas and 13 lettered lots for private streets and
motor courts.
On November 8, 2004, the Board of
Supervisors (Board) approved a General Plan Amendment (Resolution No. 04-291);
Zone Change (Resolution No. 04-292 and Ordinance No. 04-014); Development
Agreement (Resolution No. 04-293 and Ordinance No. 04-015); and adopted
Resolution No. 04-290, certifying Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) No.
589 as complete, adequate and in full compliance with the requirements of CEQA
for the entire 22,815-acre area of the RPPC.
Subsequent settlement agreements regarding
regional transportation impacts associated with implementation of the RPPC and
the appropriate/desired scope of biological resource protection to be
implemented within the boundaries of the RPPC were finalized in August 2005.
The Master Area Plans and Subarea Plans
for Planning Areas 3 and 4, including Subarea 3.5, were originally approved on
February 25, 2015, by the Planning Commission (PC) (PA140072 - PA140081) and
revised administratively on May 22, 2017 (PA150047). On September 11, 2019, the
PC approved amendments and revisions to the Master Area Plans and Subarea Plans
for Planning Areas 3 and 4 (PA180030) that reflect plans to develop Planning
Area 3 in smaller phases. Additional administrative revisions to the Master Area
Plans and Subarea Plans for Planning Areas 3 and 4 were approved in October
2022 (PA22-0067), October 2024 (PA24-0104) and May 2025 (PA24-0181).
FTM 17935 was approved for Subarea 3.5 by
the Board on August 26, 2025. On October 15, 2025, the Orange County
Subdivision Committee approved Vesting Tentative Tract Map (VTTM) 19326 for
Subarea 3.5. FTM 19326 represents development plans for a portion of Subarea
3.5, as proposed by the owner/subdivider of the project, TH Ranch Mission Viejo
MR 16 LLC. FTM 19326, as attached hereto as Attachment K, is in substantial
compliance with the approved VTTM 19326.
The County of Orange (County) Surveyor has
reviewed proposed FTM 19326 and has determined that it complies with all
conditions of approval and conforms to all applicable codes and regulations.
County acceptance of the dedication of the
easements shown on FTM 19326 provides for emergency access, public utility and
public service vehicle ingress and egress for purposes of public health,
welfare and safety.
Compliance
with CEQA: The
project is a necessarily included element of the projects considered in FEIR
No. 589 (RPPC General Plan Amendment/Zoning Change/Development Agreement) and
FEIR No. 584 (Southern Subregion Natural Community Conservation Plan/Master
Streambed Alteration Agreement/Habitat Conservation Plan), which were certified
by the Board on November 8, 2004, and October 24, 2006, respectively, together
with the following addenda: Addendum 1.0 to FEIR No. 589, approved on July 26,
2006, by the PC (PA06-0023); Addendum 1.1 to FEIR No. 589, approved on February
24, 2011, by the Interim Director of OC Public Works (PA11-0003 through
PA110006); Planning Area 2 Addendum to FEIR No. 589, approved on March 27,
2013, by the PC (PA130001 through PA130004 and PA130006); and Addendum 3.1 to
FEIR No. 589, approved February 25, 2015, by the PC (PA140072-81). These
documents adequately addressed the effects of the proposed project. No
substantial changes have been made in the project; no substantial changes have
occurred in the circumstances under which the project is being undertaken; and
no new information of substantial importance to the project that was not known
or could not have been known when FEIR No. 589, FEIR No. 584, Addendum 1.0,
Addendum 1.1, Planning Area 2 Addendum and Addendum 3.1 were certified and
approved; therefore, no further environmental review is required.
