Lennar Corp. gained initial approval for a 536-unit senior community in Rancho Peñasquitos, in San Diego.
The project, called The Junipers, was unanimously approved by the San Diego Planning Commission. It will now go to the City Council for final approval, likely sometime in June. The community will be restricted to individuals 55 and older. It will include a mix of townhouses and single-family homes, with 81 apartments set aside for low-income households. It will also include a 2.87-acre public park and a 2.82-acre loop trail near the intersection of Carmel Mountain Road and Peñasquitos Drive. The 112-acre Junipers project will be placed on a section of a shuttered golf course. Planners have discussed the project before, but the most recent meeting was to consider the completion of an environmental review of the project — which found no significant impact. Plans call for 133 single-family homes, 136 duplexes and 186 sixplexes. Almost all housing is set to be for-sale housing, but 81 one- and two-bedroom apartments will be subsidized housing for low-income seniors. Lennar did not give an estimate of the cost for the for-sale housing. Planning for The Junipers took about five years and involved community outreach.
