Planning commission approves Stallion Estate tentative parcel map to split 5-acre parcel on Avenue 50
Summary
The Indio Planning Commission voted 5-0 to conditionally approve Tentative Parcel Map No. 39093 (TPM250010), dividing a roughly 5-acre property at 80700 Avenue 50 into two parcels; staff found the division consistent with the general plan, zoning, and state subdivision law and granted a CEQA categorical exemption for a minor land division.
The Indio Planning Commission voted unanimously Tuesday to conditionally approve Tentative Parcel Map No. 39093, allowing a roughly 5-acre parcel at 80700 Avenue 50 (Assessor’s Parcel No. 602-080-003) to be subdivided into two lots.
The parcel map, submitted under case file TPM250010 for a project called Stallion Estate by applicant Andrew McClurg of Luxury Desert Escapes LLC, would create Parcel 1 at about 3.12 acres to contain the existing single-family residence, casita, garage, barn, recreational improvements and equestrian facilities, and Parcel 2 at about 1.52 acres as an undeveloped lot with recorded access and utility easements for future use. No new development was proposed as part of the request.
Nicolas (assistant planner, Community Development Department) told the commission staff had reviewed the map for consistency with the City of Indio General Plan 2040, the Unified Development Code and the Subdivision Map Act, and that the project met applicable requirements. Staff recommended approval of Resolution No. 2115 and concluded the project qualified for a categorical exemption under CEQA Guidelines §15315, which applies to minor land divisions.
Jennifer Reyes, the project manager for the Stallion Estate application, told the commission she had reviewed the staff report and “agree[d] with everything in there. It’s a simple lot split.”
After staff presentation and no public comment, a motion to approve the tentative parcel map was made and seconded. The commission approved the map by roll call: Commissioner Scarborough Echo — yes; Commissioner Santos — yes; Commissioner Ortiz — yes; Vice Chairperson Frans — yes; Chairperson Rodriguez Seja — yes. The motion carried 5-0.
Because the approval is conditional and no new construction was proposed, staff included standard conditions of approval noted in the staff report. The community development department will handle document recording and ensure required conditions are satisfied before final map recordation.
