Document Description
The approximately 17.68-acre proposed project site is generally located at 2100 East Thousand Oaks Boulevard; refer to Exhibit 2, Site Vicinity. The project site is currently designated Institutional and Commercial Neighborhood, and zoned SP-11 and SP-20; refer to Exhibit 3, Existing Land Use Designations. The site is specifically bound by Thousand Oaks Boulevard and commercial uses (i.e., Saremi and Johnstone Dentistry) to the north, Conejo School Road and commercial uses (i.e., The Lakes shopping center) to the east, Highway 101 to the south, and Oakwood Drive, commercial uses (i.e., Enhanced Landscape, a private landscape company), and single-family residential uses to the west. The site is located within the Civic Arts Specific Plan (SP-11) and Thousand Oaks Boulevard Specific Plan (SP-20), and consists of three public right-of-way segments (i.e., Thousand Oaks Boulevard, Dallas Drive, and Oakwood Drive). The proposed project would use the parking facilities at 265 South Rancho Road and 110 South Conejo School Road for satellite parking during peak demand times. These locations would also be utilized for off-site construction laydown areas. The proposed project involves a General Plan Amendment to change the land use designation of a 5.33-acre portion of the project area to Mixed-Use and increase the height within that area, refer to Exhibit 4, Proposed Land Use Designations; amendment of the Civic Arts Plaza Specific Plan (SP No. 11) to facilitate development of a new pedestrian-oriented downtown, including mixed-use residential, a hotel, commercial, office, and entertainment uses; partial reconstruction of the existing City Hall; public amenities such as a park plaza and outdoor amphitheater; and supporting infrastructure, including new roadways, reconfigured utilities, and stormwater management improvements; a Tentative Tract Map consolidating 14 existing parcels into 9 new lots; a Development Permit for construction of four new buildings, including a seven-story, 142-key hotel; a seven-story, 161-unit mixed-use building (26 affordable units) with subterranean garage; a four-story, 79-unit mixed-use building (13 affordable units) with subterranean garage; a two-story restaurant building; and a public park with a children’s play structure, splash pad, interactive play equipment, informal stages and seating areas, and flexible open space; a Special Use Permit for the sale and consumption of alcohol; and a Protected Tree Permit for the removal and replacement of protected trees, as well as the encroachment into the protected zone of protected trees. The proposed project would be constructed in five phases, (refer to Exhibit 5, Phasing Plan) which are anticipated to commence in 2027 and be completed by 2032.
