Chacon Farms Project

The Chacon Farms Project, identified by solicitation number 2025101241, involves the subdivision of approximately 73.97 to 75.7 acres of agricultural land in San Jacinto, California, into a residential community. The development will feature 419 single-family detached residences with minimum lot sizes of 4,500 square feet and structures ranging from one to two stories. The project scope includes the construction of onsite roadways, four open space lots, and community amenities such as parks, pickleball courts, and picnic areas. Key infrastructure improvements include the widening of Esplanade Avenue and the installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Cawston Avenue and Esplanade Avenue. The project is governed by a Planned Development Permit and a Mitigated Negative Declaration, ensuring compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act and local San Jacinto Development Code. Comprehensive environmental assessments have been completed, including a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, a habitat assessment, a noise impact study, and a geotechnical investigation. These reports confirm no recognized environmental conditions and provide guidelines for stormwater management and water quality protection. Construction is scheduled to begin on July 1, 2025, with an expected completion date in 2027 and an operational year of 2029. Performance guarantees, including bonds or cash certificates determined by the City Engineer, are required prior to the issuance of the first phase building permit.
