Landon Equestrian Arena

Landon Equestrian Arena

The Proposed Project is a request for a Development Plan to allow construction of a new 45,000-gross-square-foot (gsf) enclosed equestrian arena and a request for a Land Use Permit (Case No. 26LUP-00055) to incorporate the arena as an expansion of the existing equestrian facilities. The requested Development Plan and associated equestrian facility operation will include a new 300-gsf water well pump house for fire suppression and a new 22,000-sf stormwater retention basin. The proposed Development Plan includes a request for a waiver to allow unimproved, unmarked/unstriped parking areas within the AG-II Zone District (pursuant to LUDC Section 35.36.090.B.2.). Grading for the equestrian facility will include 702 cubic yards (cy) of cut, 891 cy of fill, and 189 cy net import of fill. No trees are proposed for removal. The equestrian facility will be open daily from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and available to private clients for horse training, breeding and boarding. The facility will not be open to the general public. The facility operation will include seven full-time employees. Two of the employees will live on the subject property in two existing permitted Agricultural Employee Dwellings. The expanded equestrian facility will be served by a new private on-site wastewater treatment system and the existing single-parcel domestic and agricultural water system with private well. The Proposed Project be all-electric with no natural gas hookups, and will retain Central Coast Community Energy as the energy provider or otherwise utilize 100% carbon free electricity. The Proposed Project will commit to the use of electrified off-road landscaping equipment for ongoing operations and maintenance. The Proposed Project will provide dedicated space for organic waste and recycling receptacles and implement a Solid Waste Management Plan (including posting of educational signage) to sort and collect recyclables and organic waste.
