BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

 

The area depicted in Final Tract Map (FTM) 19191 is located in the southeastern portion of unincorporated Orange County, east of Legado Road and north of Cow Camp Road, on the north side of Williams Way, within the Ranch Plan Planned Community (RPPC). The tract is located within Planning Area 3, Subarea 3.2b (a portion of Subarea 3.2) of the RPPC.

 

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 3.2, 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). On February 16, 2022, the Orange County Subdivision Committee approved Vesting Tentative Tract Map (VTTM) 19163 for the eastern portion of Subarea 3.2, referred to as Subarea 3.2b. Revision 1 to VTTM 19163 was administratively approved by the Deputy Director of OC Development Services on August 26, 2022. FTM 19163 was approved by the Board on November 8, 2022, and recorded with the OC Clerk-Recorder on November 21, 2022.

 

On April 5, 2023, the Orange County Subdivision Committee approved VTTM 19191, which represents a further subdivision of FTM 19163 and is part of the final development plan for Subarea 3.2b.

 

Proposed FTM 19191 provides for the development of a 7.86-acre site into 108 legal lots consisting of 82 numbered lots for planned-concept single-family detached dwellings and 26 lettered lots for open space, private streets and private courts.

 

The County of Orange (County) Surveyor has reviewed proposed FTM 19191 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 19191 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), which was certified by the Board on November 8, 2004, as well as 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 subsequent changes have been made to 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, Addendum 1.0, Addendum 1.1, Planning Area 2 Addendum and Addendum 3.1 were certified and approved have become known; therefore, no further environmental review is required.
