LA JOLLA AND PACIFIC BEACH COMMUNITY PLAN UPDATES

Project PRJ-1085883, managed by the City of San Diego, involves the development of the Cielo Mar residential subdivision located at 8303 La Jolla Shores Drive. The project entails the demolition of an existing 3,304-square-foot single-dwelling unit and accessory structures, the consolidation of three parcels into one, and the subsequent subdivision of the 4.5-acre site into six residential lots and one lot for a private street. The development plan includes the construction of six detached two- to three-story single-family homes with a total combined square footage of 81,748 square feet, including one accessory dwelling unit on lot six. Site improvements will feature a private access road, utility upgrades, sidewalks, and pools. The project is situated within the La Jolla Shores Planned District and is subject to various regulatory overlays, including the Coastal Zone Boundary, Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, and Paleontological Sensitivity Area. Comprehensive technical studies have been conducted to ensure compliance, including a preliminary drainage study, a geotechnical investigation for foundation and slope stability, a biological survey to protect sensitive species, and a Phase I cultural resource survey. Environmental compliance is managed through an addendum to the La Jolla and Pacific Beach Community Plan Environmental Impact Report, with additional mandates for a 75 percent waste diversion rate and strict storm water quality management. The project received approval from the City of San Diego Planning Commission on December 4, 2025, with a formal Notice of Determination filed on May 29, 2026.
