On Tuesday, the Brentwood City Council will hear an appeal on the 272 single-family home Bridle Gate Project in the City of Brentwood.
The item comes before the city council after a July 16, 2024 Planning Commission hearing on project. The planning commission spent 7-hours discussing the item but ultimately voted 4-0 to deny the project (Anita Roberts absent). The planning commission made the denial against the recommendation of city staff and consultants due to traffic concerns, park locations, design flaws and ridge line protections.
On July 24, 2024, WCHB Development filed an appear of the Planning Commission action.
With the appeal, the City Council now has 2 options:
- Deny the appeal, upholding the Planning Commission’s action to deny the project by adopting a resolution supported by factual finds; or
- Approve the appeal, reversing the Planning Commission’s action to deny the project by adopting three resolutions: (1) certifying the Revised EIR (REIR) and making CEQA findings, (2) approving the Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map (VTSM 9586), and (3) approving the Design Review (DR 21-010).
The proposed project would include subdivision of the site for development of 272 single-family detached residences, as well as associated improvements within the project site, including two parks, open space, stormwater detention and treatment areas, utility connections, and construction of an internal roadway network on approximately 92.96 acres.
The 36.82 acres of land located north of the future Sand Creek Road extension are on a separate legal parcel shown as a designated remainder on the vesting tentative subdivision map (VTSM), and are therefore not proposed to be developed as part of this application.
The project site is bounded by Old Sand Creek Road to the north, State Route (SR) 4 to the east, a single-family residential development (Brentwood Hills) to the south, and the edge of the Brentwood Planning Area and the City of Antioch’s city limits to the west (APNs: 019-082-009 and 019-082-00).
