THE FIELDS AT ALAMO CREEK SUBDIVISION Staff Contact: Noah Rumbaoa, Associate Planner (707) 449-5430 Applicant: Tom Phillippi Property Owner: G&W Holdings, LLC File No: 22-180 APN: 0138-010-200 Requests: General Plan Amendment, Annexation, Prezoning, Development Agreement, Specific Plan Amendment, Tentative Subdivision Map and Environmental Assessment for the Fields at Alamo Creek Subdivision located south of Hawkins Road in unincorporated Solano County. Project Summary: The City of Vacaville has received a development application from Phillippi Engineering, Inc. for the Fields at Alamo Creek subdivision project (“The Fields”), which consists of the following: (1) annex 33.6 acres of land into the Vacaville City limits; (2) amend the City’s General Plan Map to change the land use designation from Urban Reserve to Residential Medium Density (8.1-14.0 du/ac); (3) amend the City’s Zoning Map to prezone the site to RM (Residential Medium Density) and PF (Public Facilities) with an AB (Agricultural Buffer) overlay; (4) subdivide the land and create 241 lots for single-family residential development; and (5) amend the Farm at Alamo Creek Specific Plan to identify connectivity with future development planned in this area of the City. Primary access to the project would be provided on Hawkins Road, with additional roadway extensions connecting to the future Farm at Alamo Creek Subdivision located to the west and south. The proposed subdivision layout would create 241 lots consisting of 153 detached single-family homes and 88 half-plex lots, also known as duets, and a 0.6-acre site for a privately maintained pocket park, with 7.2 acres for a water detention basin in the agricultural buffer. The project requires an amendment to the Farm at Alamo Creek Specific Plan (“The Farm”) to illustrate roadway and utility connectivity with future development that will be located to the west and south. Primary access to the subdivision would be provided on Hawkins Road, with secondary access via future streets internal to the Farm. Pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15163, a Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) to the Farm Final EIR (“The Farm FEIR”) was prepared to evaluate the impacts of the project.
