consideration of a Rezone for 43.2 acres on the east side of State

parcels for residential development. The parcels are 5.41, 7.24,
17.79, and 12.79 acres in size. Sewage disposal for the project
would be provided by individual septic tanks, and water would be
obtained from a well on the project site. The property was
rezoned as a part of the Fourteen Mile House PUD rezone, and
residential development has been completed in the first two
"units" of that development. The subject property is the third
"unit" of that residential development, but is subject to a
separate homeowners association. An environmental analysis was
conducted prior to the approval of said rezone, and another
environmental review was prepared for the subdivision map approval
that created the four parcels. The property is located on the
east side of Highway 32, across from Woodland Park Road, about two
miles south of Forest Ranch, and identified as APN 063-360-018.
