The subject site is designated Single Family Residential – Medium Density (SM) under the Land Use Element Map to the Contra Costa County General Plan, 2005-2020, it is zoned under the R-10: Single Family Residential District, and it is located entirely within the Urban Limit Line.

ATTESTED: May 11, 2010 David J. Twa, County Administrator and Clerk of the Board of Supervisors By: , Deputy cc: C.69 To:Board of Supervisors From:Catherine Kutsuris, Conservation & Development Director Date:May 11, 2010 Contra Costa County Subject:General Plan Amendment Study Authorization, 2052-2072 Olympic Boulevard, Saranap BACKGROUND: (CONT'D) seeking authorization to consider re-designating approximately 1-acre in the middle 2000 block of Olympic Boulevard to Multiple Family Residential – Low Density (ML) in support of a proposed 8-lot residential subdivision. See Exhibit “A” for a copy of letter from Mr. William Wood, Architect, requesting the General Plan Amendment study authorization on behalf of the two property owners for the subject site. The site location, comprised of Assessor Parcel Nos. 184-302-003/004, the subject of the General Plan Amendment study authorization request, is depicted in the maps and aerial photo, respectively, attached as Exhibits “B” and “C” to this report. Staff recommends the Board decline authorization of the General Plan Amendment study as requested by Mr. Wood, on behalf of the property owners at 2052-2072 Olympic Boulevard. The Department does not believe it is appropriate at this time to consider a change in land use designation along this segment of Olympic Boulevard. It is noted that the proposal involves four parcels in the middle of the 2000 block of Olympic Boulevard to increase their residential density well above the current Single Family Residential –Medium Density, making a an abrupt change in the land use pattern in the middle of the block and potentially altering the fabric of a predominantly single family residential neighborhood.
