“B” Vesting Tentative Tract Map 19305 for Planning Area 3, Subarea 3.4, The Ranch Plan Planned
Community 

The applicant, Rancho Mission Viejo (RMV), requests approval of “B” Vesting Tentative Tract Map 19305 (VTTM19305) to subdivide a 5.95-acre site within Subarea 3.4 of the Ranch Plan Planned Community into 44 legal lots for Condominium purposes: 23 numbered lots for planned concept two-family (duplex) dwellings, 6 numbered lots for planned concept detached dwellings, 7 lettered lots for usable project open space, and 8 lettered lots for private streets and motor courts.

The project site is located in the southeastern portion of unincorporated Orange County, on Lots 3 through 10 and H through K of “A” Tract Map 17934, within Subarea 3.4 of the Ranch Plan Planned Community. The project site is located east of Ranch Canyon and north of Cow Camp Road, at the southeast corner of the intersection of Bucker Way and Legado Road, within the Fifth (5th) Supervisorial District.

The proposed project is covered by previous CEQA documentation, which includes Final Program EIR 589, which was certified on November 8, 2004; Addendum 1.0, approved on July 26, 2006; Addendum 1.1, approved on February 24, 2011; the Planning Area 2 Addendum, approved on March 27, 2013; and Addendum 3.1 approved on February 25, 2015. This finding is appropriate and complies with the intent of CEQA pursuant to the 2020 Orange County Local CEQA Procedures Manual, Section 13.1 for projects where a previous environmental document (i.e. Program EIR 589) is already in place. Further CEQA evaluation and clearances are not required for proposed “B” VTTM 19305.

On August 28, 2024, the Orange County Planning Commission held a public hearing, considered proposed General Plan Amendment T24-01 - Transportation Element and voted to adopt Planning Commission Resolution No. 2024-02, which recommended the Board of Supervisors make the appropriate findings under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and adopt the proposed General Plan Amendment GPA T24-01 - Transportation Element. 

Final EIR (FEIR) No. 589, previously certified by the Board of Supervisors on November 8, 2004, regarding the Ranch Plan Planned Community, together with Addendum 1.0 to FEIR 589, approved July 2006, Addendum 1.1 approved February 24, 2011, Planning Area 2 Addendum approved March 25, 2013, and Addendum 3.1 to FEIR 589, approved February 25, 2015, reflect the independent judgment of the County of Orange and satisfy the requirements of CEQA.  Collectively, these previously approved CEQA documents adequately address the effects of the proposed project, no subsequent changes have been made to the project, no substantial changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the project is being undertaken, and no new information of substantial importance to the project has become known which was not known or could not have been known at the time each of these prior CEQA documents was approved. Therefore, no further environmental review is required.
