Ascend Specific Plan

Description

The project applicant is requesting approval of a Specific Plan (SP25-0003) for residential development, General Plan Amendment (GPA25-0004) and Rezone (R25-0003) to change the site’s land use and zoning designation from Light Industrial (LI) to Specific Plan Area (SPA), Tentative Subdivision Map (TSM25-0004) for residential condominium purposes, Multi-Family Site Development Plan (MFSDP25-0003) for 147 residential units and associated facilities, Conditional Use Permit (CUP25-0003) for use of a temporary rock crusher during project construction, and adoption of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR25-006). The proposed Specific Plan allows for, and the EIR analyzes up to 160 residential units, but the current Tentative Map and Site Development Plan identify 147 units consisting of 59 free-standing single family residential units and 44 duplex buildings. Access to the project would be provided at the signalized intersection of Melrose Drive and Diamond Street with emergency access on the west side of the project to and from Melrose Drive. All units are designed to be three stories in height with attached two-car garages. Common open space and recreational amenities are mainly proposed at the north end of the property. The project has been designed around the existing San Diego Gas & Electric easements and utility tower. Proposed grading includes 163,197 cubic yards (cy) of cut and 217,649 cy of fill, with an import of 54,452 cy. Rock drilling, blasting and the use of a temporary rock crusher may also be required.
