March 23, 19 87 County SUBJECT.General Plan Amendment Request by Barratt Irving SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RETEST Authorize a General Plan review as requested by the Barratt Irving Company for an approximately 207 acre parcel located east of Oak Grove Road at the end of Arbolado Drive in the Walnut Creek area. In authorizing a review, staff will proceed with a report which will then be scheduled for public hearing before the County Planning Commission. Since this site is currently designated open space, this project would be referred to the General Plan Review Congress if they are still active when this item is subject to decision. Following this, the Commission would forward its recommendation to the Board for a final determination after public hearing. BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION Mr. Glen Worthington of the Barratt Irving Company ( 18022 Cowan Street, Suite 203 , Irvine, CA 92714) has requested a General Plan Amendment on their 207 acre property located in the Walnut Creek area. The requested change is from Agricultural Preserve to Single Family Residential Low Density and General Open Space. The site historically was in an Agricultural Preserve, but that contract was cancelled by the Board of Supervisors in 1980. The applicants have been working toward development with the City of Walnut Creek, but recent growth limitation ballot measures have encouraged the applicants that it would be preferable to have this review conducted by the County. An EIR is anticipated on the project. There are two parcels which are surrounded on three sides by this site; the plan amendment area should be expanded to include those two parcels and potentially other adjacent lands.
