15295 Monterey Road General Plan Amendment and Rezone Project

The proposed project would involve a General Plan Amendment (GPA) and Rezone (RZ) to modify the existing land use and zoning designations of the project site. The proposed GPA would change the General Plan land use designation from Commercial to Mixed Use Flex and the proposed RZ would change the zoning from General Commercial to Mixed Use Flex (MU-F). The project as proposed does not involve construction or other physical changes; the project applicant has only applied for the GPA and RZ and has not submitted an application for a specific project. The Draft IS-MND analyzes the environmental impacts of full potential buildout under the proposed MU-F designation, anticipating that a future project could be submitted under density bonus provisions for a density bonus of up to 100 percent, which could result in the construction of up to 240 residential units in buildings up to 70 feet or six stories tall.
