RE: Review of the Supplemental EIR for San Luis Ranch
Dear Chair Stevenson and Commissioners:
I'm asking you to continue this item to a future date and request staff the time to prepare a project proposal in
legislative draft form. The proposal should show the changes to the original documents which are described in the staff
report and the Supplemental EIR. A project proposal is needed on which to base a CEQA analysis and findings. There is
no such document attached to this item in the public record for tonight's hearing.
It seems presumptuous to ask your Commission to review and comment on a supplemental EIR when the project is not
completely identified. All I learned is that the phases are proposed to be eliminated, so that a mix of development types
might be in some other phase, perhaps. Or that more than one of the approved phases can be constructed without
meeting the infrastructure requirements for those phases or a portion of one. It throws into question what will activate
an infrastructure requirement that was identified in the Final EIR for San Luis Ranch.
Finally, some proposal is also made that the Director may allow 50 percent of the (total?) development potential to be
built at one phase. I assume that this means that 290 residential units (half of the approved 580) could be built first; or
half of the commercial area first. This is just confusing, without seeing the language of the proposals. And, it would help
to have a staff analysis of the proposals and their detailed effect. Thank you.
