The Project includes a General Plan Amendment (PDS2018-GPA-18-005), a Zone Reclassification (PDS2018-REZ-18-004), an Agriculture Preserve Disestablishment (PDS2018-AP-18-002), a Tentative Map (PDS2018-TM-5629), and a Site Plan (PDS0218-STP-18-016).

The Ivanhoe Ranch Project (Project) consists of a General Plan Amendment, Rezone, Tentative Map, Site Plan, Agricultural Preserve Disestablishment, and a Williamson Act Contract Cancellation. The Project consists of the proposed 120-lot subdivision with 119 new residential units and one existing residence to remain unchanged, 24.97 acres of biological open space, a private 1.78-acre park with a parking lot, private internal roads with concrete sidewalks, decomposed granite trails, street lighting, two bridges, landscaped areas, drainage basins, and an entry monument wall. The Project would change the existing General Plan land use designation from Open Space (Recreation) and Semi-Rural (SR-10) to SR-2 and SR-0.5. The SR-0.5 and SR-2 would allow for a maximum density of one unit per 0.5-acre or 2 acres, respectively. The Rezone would change the existing zone from Limited Agriculture (A-70) to Rural Residential (RR) and Single Family Residential (RS), would remove the “A” Special Area Designator to remove the project site from the Jamacha Agricultural Preserve #21, and establish new Design Review “D” Special Area Designator, setbacks, building type, and animal designator. The project site also requires the cancellation of the Williamson Act contract (AP71-17). The Project site is 121.9 acres and is located within the central unincorporated San Diego County, within the Valle De Oro Community Plan Area, approximately 4 miles south of the City of El Cajon, south of Interstate 8 (I-8), east of State Route 54 (SR-54) and north of State Route 94 (SR-94). Access to the site would be through Ashley Park Drive on the southeast and Ivanhoe Ranch Road from the southwest.
