Advisory members recommend reverting dormant Cristalago planned development to rural lands
Summary
LAPAC members suggested reverting the expired Cristalago planned‑development designation back to rural lands or rural residential because the project's approvals have expired, and considerations such as slope and fire hazard argue against clustered residential there.
Members discussed the long‑dormant Cristalago project, a planned development that previously proposed clustered villas, vineyards and equestrian facilities. Staff explained that prior approvals have expiration periods and that the project would need to reapply; given steep slopes and fire‑hazard concerns, Turner said lapac could recommend returning the area to rural lands or rural residential.
Turner noted the approved plan has lapsed: "If this LAPAC would like to make a recommendation that we revert that back to what it was before, we'll put that in." Members flagged fire risk and the lack of active development as reasons to revert the designation; staff will include the recommendation in draft mapping for public review.
