General Plan Amendment No. 721 proposes an amendment to the Circulation Element to delete, modify or add any Circulation Element roadways interior to or along the boundary of the Specific Plan to implement the roadway network illustrated in Exhibit B.2.6C - General Plan Roadway Classifications. This Exhibit is available for inspection through the contacts or at the location identified below in this notice. Key changes proposed to the County Circulation Element include, but are not limited to: the elimination of Yucca Avenue as a through street within the project boundary, the rerouting of 10th Street/Wolfskill Avenue as an Arterial and Secondary roadway east of Hansen Avenue.

Additionally, the above General Plan Amendment will amend the Circulation Element Trails and Bikeways System to include the Community Trail designation for a number of the trails proposed within the project boundary. A view of all the proposed trails within the project area is shown on Exhibit B.8.18.b, Project Trails Plan which is available for inspection through the contacts or at the location identified below in this notice.

The Project is also proposing a Zoning Ordinance to implement the Specific Plan. The Environmental Impact Report analyzes the environmental impacts of the proposed project.
