Client: Details: Existing Spa property Hilltop property under draft Ridgeline Overlay Zone
|
Golden Door Spa The hillside portion of the property would have been greatly affected by the City of San Marcos’ draft Ridgeline Preservation Zone and would have precluded a majority of the site from any development. TRG reviewed the City’s Ridgeline Overlay Zone and concluded that the ridgelines shown in the vicinity of the Golden Door site were incorrectly mapped. TRG provided extensive computer modeling to assess the ridgelines as plotted by the City and demonstrated that the mapping had not taken into account the surrounding ridgelines and consequently the property was removed from the Ridgeline Overlay Zone. As a result of the services we provided to our client, The Blackstone Group, that successfully demonstrated to the City of San Marcos the inaccuracy of their draft Ridgeline Preservation mapping, the City of San Marcos requested our services as peer review consultants for several proposed hillside projects. Project analyses was a collaborative effort with Digital Preview. |
