Wildomar Considering Changing A Rural Residential Area To Allow For More Homes

Lennar home builders has applied to the city to subdivide the acreage located at the southwest corner of Prielipp Road and Elizabeth Lane into 67 lots to ready it for housing tract development.

The City of Wildomar is scheduled to consider whether to allow 23 acres of its rural residential area to be converted to more dense housing.

Lennar home builders has applied to the city to subdivide the acreage located at the southwest corner of Prielipp Road and Elizabeth Lane into 67 lots to ready it for housing tract development.

The application requires that the city first change the zoning from rural residential to medium high-density residential.

If the zoning change is approved by the city, it would allow five to eight single-family attached and detached homes per acre at the site. Under the current rural residential designation, the allowable number of homes is one per half-acre lot.

The issue is expected to come before the Wildomar Planning Commission next month.
