Council approves tentative parcel map to split one lot into three at 143 N. La Esperanza, 5-0
Summary
After a brief staff presentation and public hearing, the council adopted a resolution approving a three-lot subdivision for a parcel at 143 North La Esperanza. The tentative map had been approved previously in 2018 but lapsed when no final map was recorded.
The San Clemente City Council voted unanimously to approve Tentative Parcel Map 18-137, allowing a one-lot split into three residential lots at 143 North La Esperanza.
Assistant Planner Araceli Mejia summarized the project: the site lies in the Residential Low zone and totals 21,536 square feet. The map had previously been approved in 2018 but became null and void after the applicant did not record a final map within the required 24-month period. There is an existing house on what would be Lot 1; the lot sizes proposed meet the city's minimum lot-size requirement of 6,000 square feet for the zone, staff said.
Zach Ream, Principal Planner, and the applicant's representative, Adam Alcarez, were available for council questions; the applicant explained delays were related to COVID and contractor changes. There were no public speakers on the item.
The council adopted the approving resolution by a recorded vote of 5-0.
