PA-0400666 AND ZONE RECLASSIFICATION APPLICATION NO. PA-0400668 OF MARY NORDMAN, ETAL (APN: 015-020-61; 19730 N. WINDWOOD DRIVE, WOODBRIDGE) The applicant has submitted the above referenced General Plan Amendment application to change the General Plan designation of the southern 11-acres of a parcel from A/UR (Agriculture/Urban Reserve) to R/L (Low Density Residential) and Zone Reclassification application to change the zoning from AU-20 (Agriculture-Urban Reserve, 20-acre minimum lot size) to R-L (Low Density Residential). The southern portion of the parcel is currently vacant. The northern portion of the parcel contains wastewater evaporation/percolation ponds of the Woodbridge Sanitary District. The parcels to the south of the project site are residential and are a part of the subdivision created in 1990. These parcels have a General Plan designation of R/L (Low Density Residential) and a zoning of R-L (Low Density Residential). The parcel to the east of the project site has more wastewater ponds of the Woodbridge Sanitary District and has a General Plan designation of A/UR (Agriculture/Urban Reserve) and a zoning of AU-20 (Agriculture-Urban Reserve, 20-acre minimum lot size). To the west of the project site is a parcel used for agriculture with a General Plan designation of A/UR (Agriculture/Urban Reserve) and a zoning of AU-20 (Agriculture-Urban Reserve, 20-acre minimum lot size). The project site is located at the northern terminus of Windwood Drive, 100 feet north of the intersection of Windwood Drive and Riverwood Drive in Woodbridge. The Community Development Department has reviewed the proposed General Plan Amendment and Zone Reclassification and offers the following comments: Background In 1990, on the subdivision to the south of the project site, the current applicant of this project received a General Plan Amendment (GP-89-20) and Zone Reclassification (ZR-89-25) to change the General Plan designation from A/G to R/L, and to rezone the property from AL-5 and AG-40 to R1-U. A Major Subdivision application (SU-89-26) to create a subdivision of 126 lots was subsequently approved in 1990. An Environmental Impact Report was prepared for that project and addressed potential land use conflicts due to incompatible land uses. The Conditions of Approval for Major Subdivision (SU-89-26) stated that the subdivision shall be buffered from the Woodbridge Sanitary District sewage treatment plant to the north by a 200-foot by 200-foot area to mitigate for odors originating from the treatment plant and the wastewater ponds.
