BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The Community Development Department is in receipt of a request from Schuler Homes of Northern
California fora General Plan Amendment Study to change the land use designation for.the southern
one-third portion of the sixty-acre Delta Lakes Project located at 4440 Point of Timber Road in the
Discovery Bay area.
Schuler Homes of Northern California has previously filed a development application with the County for
the Delta Lakes Project,a 220 unit residential subdivision.According to the County General Plan's Land
Use Element Map,about two-thirds of the site area is currently designated as Single Family Residential-
Medium Density (SM) with approximately one third of the site designated. as Delta Recreation and
Resources(DR). In support of their development application,Schuler Homes is proposing to change the
land use designation for the southern one-third portion of the sixty-acre site from Delta Recreation and
Resources(DR)to Single Family Residential-Medium Density(SM)and they have reconfigured the Delta
Lakes Project site plan to a 192 unit residential subdivision.
The location of,the Delta Lakes Project, which is the subject of the General Plan Amendment study
request by Schuler Homes, is depicted in the map attached as Exhibit"A". The subject site sits within
the Urban Limit Line.
The Town of Discovery Bay Community Services District is aware of the General Plan Amendment study
request, and has no objection to the study.
Staff believes the request for a study is reasonable and recommends that it be authorized.
Authorization for this study does not imply any support for the application to amend the General Plan,but
only that this matter is appropriate for study.
