Analysis Background Proied Description The proposed zone change encompasses 15 acres of a 15.29-acre site that was approved for the Mountain House Water Treatment Plant. The remaining .29-acre remnant is located within the Dry Creek wetlands. It has a land use designation of Open Space/Resource Conservation (OS/RC) and AU- 20 zoning. No development is proposed or permitted in this area. The Mountain House Master Plan and the Public Land Equity Program (PLEP) designate 18.5 acres for Public uses. Specific Plan I recognized this site for initial development of the Water Treatment Plant. Although the Water Treatment Plant use is permitted under the AU-20 zone, it is now necessary to rezone the Water Treatment Plant site to 'P-F" in order to permit the creation of the 15-acre parcel that will be dedicated to the Mountain House Community Services District (MHCSD). Plan Consistency/Zoning The site for the Water Treatment Plant has been designated for Public use in both the 2010 General Plan and the Mountain House Master Plan. The Public Facilities (P-F) zone is a consistent implementing zone. Land Ownership Currently, Trimark, the applicant, owns the 25.7-acre parcel on which the Water Treatment Plant will be located as well as the 78-acre parcel lying immediately to the east. The Water Treatment Plant site is to be located on 15.29 acres of the 25.7-acre parcel (APN 209-030-06). This 15.29-acre portion will be legally established via a Lot Line Adjustment application. The remainder will be merged with the adjacent 78-acre parcel (APN 209-030-05). Upon completion of the Lot Line Adjustment and construction of the first phase of the Water Treatment Plant, Trimark will deed the 15.29-acre parcel over to the MHCSD. Future Expansion of the Water Treatment Plant The Mountain House Water Treatment plant will be built in stages as development occurs in Mountain House. The initial treatment system (Phase 1) will provide capacity for at least the first neighborhood. The ultimate treatment system will serve the complete buildout of the Mountain House development, based on a population of 44,000 with a maximum daily flow of 20 million gallons per day (MGD). Based on future raw water storage requirements, additional acreage over the 15 acres may be required for full development of the Water Treatment Plant. The PLEP allocates a total of 18.5 acres, which would allow the CSD to acquire an additional 3.5 acres at its discretion. If more land beyond the 18.5 acres is required, it will necessitate amendments to the General Plan, Master Plan, and Specific Plan I. San Joaquin County ZR-98-4\Trimark Community Development Page 6
