This area of the Stoneridge Drive Specific Plan is currently designated for commercial and light industrial uses and for a public park. A Specific Plan Amendment and Supplemental EIR accompany this application. Ms. Watt presented the staff report on the final Supplemental Enviromnental Impact Report (Pinal EIR) for the Proposed Amendment to the Stoneridge Drive Specific Plan (SP A-95-0 I) and Stoneridge Drive Specific Plan Amendment (SPA-95-01). In October 1989 the City Council adopted the Stoneridge Drive Specific Plan (SDSP) for 293 acres located east of the Pleasanton Meadows subdivision and bordered by Trenery Drive, 1-580 and El Charro Road. The General Plan called for development of a Specific Plan for the area and designated the area with a mix of Low and Medium Density Residential land uses, Commercial, Parks, and School uses. The final land use and densities were to be determined by the Stoneridge Drive Specific Plan (SDSP). Since 1989, all of the residentially-zoned properties within the SDSP have been constructed, are under construction, or have had development plans approved. The 128-acre subject site, the only property within the SDSP area which is still undeveloped. The site is designated for service commercial and light industrial uses, retail commercial uses, and a 17-acre active use community park. Since adoption of the Specific Plan in 1989, the Airport Land Use Commission adopted the Airport Protection Area (AP A) which designates areas within which no residential development should occur. Because the AP A is further to the east than originally anticipated by the Specific Plan, the applicants are requesting a modification of land uses to allow residential development up to the AP A boundary.
