DISCUSSION
On October 15, 2015, the Planning Commission reviewed this project and conducted a public hearing, at the conclusion of which the Planning Commission recommended the City Council act to approve the recommendation.

The developer proposes to build a new residential community of 131 detached single-family dwellings on the site of the former Will J. Reid Boy Scout Camp located at 4747 Daisy Avenue. The quasi-triangular site is 10.56 acres (460,092 square feet) in area, and is bounded by the Los Angeles River bicycle and pedestrian path on the west, a railroad on the south, and abuts an existing neighborhood of single-family dwellings in the R-1-N zoning district on the north and northeast (Exhibit A - Location Map). Both Oregon and Daisy Avenues terminate on the northeast edge of the project site. The project site and adjacent neighborhood are southwest of the intersection of Del Amo Boulevard and Long Beach Boulevard.

The developer proposes to construct a gated community of 131 single-family dwellings on individual lots, ranging from 2,405 to 6,329 square feet in area, with an average lot size of 3,218 square feet. All streets within the development would be privately owned, with access to homes provided by a 34-foot-wide ring road, with 20-foot-wide secondary access drives to homes not accessible directly from the ring road. Public street access to the development would be provided through a large circular drive and gated entry at the terminus of Daisy Avenue. A gate at the terminus of Oregon Avenue provides emergency access to the development, but would not be used for regular access (Exhibit B - Plans)...
