ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NUMBER 666-241-06 (VILLA PALOMA)
WHEREAS, Willow Partners has submitted an Architectural Control
application proposing to develop "Villa Paloma," an Affordable Senior Housing project
on property located at 27191 Paseo Espada; and,
WHEREAS, the project site was previously approved for the
development of "Casa Paloma," a senior "assisted care facility" and the recent
General Plan update classified the property as "Assisted Care Facility" reflecting the
recent discretionary approvals for the project site; and,
WHEREAS, the subject property is designated "Assisted Care Facility"
by the General Plan Land Use Element and the proposed project is more
appropriately classified as "Affordable Family/Senior Housing," which is necessary
to develop such housing at a market -feasible density and to develop such housing
under the "density bonus' provisions of Title 9, Land Use Code; and,
WHEREAS, the initiation of General Plan amendments does not
constitute a project under the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act
and is therefore exempt from environmental review.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the
City of San Juan Capistrano does hereby make the following findings:
1. The proposed project warrants further study to determine
consistency with the Land Use Element and Housing Element of the General Plan
of the City of San Juan Capistrano; and,
2. The proposed project warrants further study because it presents
the opportunity to address affordable housing goals and objectives, specifically
through the provision of affordable senior housing.
