Project Description: This Recirculated Portion Draft Environmental Impact Report (RP-DEIR) includes relevant information and analyses that address the energy implications of the Project only. Appendix F of the State CEQA Guidelines states that, in order to ensure that energy implications are considered in project decisions, the potential energy implications of a project shall be considered in an EIR, to the extent relevant and applicable to the project. Appendix F further states that a project’s energy consumption and proposed conservation measures may be addressed, as relevant and applicable, in the Project Description, Environmental Setting and Impact Analysis portions of technical sections, as well as through mitigation measures and alternatives. This is the only section being recirculated under this RP-DEIR.
The Project proposes to subdivide and subsequently develop 229 homes on the 57.45-acre Project Site (approximately 3.93 units per acre). The development will be a private community with gated access and private roads. Lot sizes will range from 2,560 to 10,720 square feet in area. Lot widths will range from 32 feet to 40 feet: 84 lots will have a width of 32 feet, 80 lots will have a width of 35 feet, and 65 lots will have a width of 40 feet. The proposed homes will range in size from 1,800 to 2,700 square feet in building area and will have a maximum height of 30 feet (two-stories). As proposed, 137 units will have four bedrooms while 92 will have five bedrooms. Most of the homes (211 units) will be built in the southeast corner of the Project Site on the portion of the site currently occupied by the Verdugo Hills Golf Course.
