Creekside Village Specific Plan

The Creekside Village Specific Plan is a development project located on approximately 208 acres in El Dorado Hills, California, situated on the west side of Latrobe Road south of Investment Boulevard. The project involves the construction of a residential community featuring up to 918 dwelling units, which includes a mix of single-family low-density and medium-density residences, as well as a gated, age-restricted community for adults 55 and older. Additional land use components include 13.6 acres of parks, 44.8 acres of open space, and 1.8 acres of neighborhood commercial space that may be converted to park use. The development will be supported by a coordinated circulation system for vehicles, pedestrians, and emergency access. The project is governed by the California Environmental Quality Act and has undergone a Final Environmental Impact Report to disclose environmental consequences and establish mitigation measures. A 401 Water Quality Certificate has been issued by the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board, confirming that the project will have a significant effect on the environment and requiring specific mitigation as a condition of approval. Key operational requirements include the employment of a qualified biologist for environmental awareness training and barrier fence installation, a qualified botanist for rare plant salvage, and an archaeological monitor to protect sensitive resources. Additionally, the project must adhere to strict confidentiality protocols regarding tribal cultural resources and follow post-construction guidelines for stormwater retention and treatment.
