Summary
The commission voted 5–0 to approve Tentative Tract Map 22‑003, a subdivision of about 20 acres into 77 single‑family lots in the R‑7,000 zone; staff noted CDFW requested minor revisions to preconstruction survey mitigation measures that were included in commission packets.
The Lancaster City Planning Commission approved Tentative Tract Map 22‑003 on May 4, authorizing the subdivision of roughly 20 acres at the southeast corner of Avenue H‑8 and 20th Street East into 77 single‑family residential lots.
Mitzi Alvarado, the case planner, described the site and said lots would range from about 7,000 to 13,000 square feet; streets within the subdivision would be private, and meandering sidewalks were proposed along Avenue H‑8 and 20th Street East. Alvarado said an IS/MND was prepared and circulated for 30 days and that one comment letter came from the Antelope Valley Air Quality Management District. Alvarado added that CDFW submitted a letter the day of the meeting requesting minor revisions to mitigation measures related to preconstruction surveys; those draft changes were included in the commissioners' packets.
Chris Penner, representing Rodeo Credit Enterprises, was present and offered to answer questions. One commissioner asked whether environmental impacts listed in the report were being mitigated; Alvarado confirmed that the minor revisions reflect those mitigations and are included in the packet.
A motion to adopt Resolution 26‑004 approving Tentative Tract Map 22‑003, adopt the IS/MND and MMRP, and authorize staff to execute and file the Notice of Determination was seconded and approved by the commission by voice vote, later recorded as 5–0 with two absent.
The action authorizes the environmental document and entitlement consistent with the staff recommendations; subsequent director's review will be required for production homes.
