On November 2, 1993, the Board of Supervisors approved the Stonebridge Estates residential subdivision in the Alamo area (Subdivision7633, Development Plan #DP91-03003 and Rezoning #RZ-2944) which created 51 new residential lots and four scenic easement common parcels, including a 39.68-acre open space parcel identified as Parcel C . Pursuant to conditions of approval for the Stonebridge Estates development, the developer recorded a grant deed of development rights granting to the County development rights on portions of several parcels within Stonebridge Estates, including Parcel C. The grant deed describes the development rights as a form of negative easement running with the property and binding future owners. Fee title of Parcel C is held by the Stonebridge Estates Homeowners’ Association (“Association”).  
  
Heather Paquette and Paul Franczyk (“Owners”) own the residential property located at 100 Bridges Court, which abuts Parcel C. On February 6, 2020, the owners of 100 Bridges Court and the Homeowners Association submitted an application for a proposed lot line adjustment between 100 Bridges Court and 2,926 square feet of Parcel C. The proposed lot line adjustment would exchange a 2,926-square-foot portion of Parcel C, which includes a small stand of trees, with a 2,926-square-foot portion of 100 Bridges Court. The exchange would allow the Owners of 100 Bridges Court to maintain the trees on their own private property.  
  
DCD staff reviewed the proposed adjustment and determined that the lot line adjustment could be approved as it did not constitute a subdivision of land, involved the reconfiguration of fewer than four parcels, and conformed to the County General Plan and Zoning Code. The Stonebridge Estates development includes approximately 58.76 acres of restricted open space. Staff has determined that accepting the development rights for a 2,926-square-foot portion of 100 Bridges Court in exchange for 2,926-square-feet of Parcel C the County will not increase or reduce the County's development right interest in Open Space Parcel C. There will be no net increase or decrease of the footprint with in the restricted open space.   
  
On August 30, 2021, the Zoning Administrator approved the proposed lot line adjustment (LL20-00002, DP20-03028). The Zoning Administrator conditioned approval of the lot line adjustment to facilitate the relocation of the County’s development rights. The proposed grant deed of development rights and quitclaim deed will meet those conditions of approval.

If the Board does not approve of the grant deed of development rights and quitclaim deed, the lot line adjustment cannot be recorded.   

No element of the proposed project will impact children’s programs within the County.
