Oceanside Planning Commission approves 77-unit building for lot near El Camino Real
An Oceanside 55-and-over community of about 1,000 single-story homes built in the 1960s is unhappy about its likely new neighbor, a six-story, mixed-use “tower” proposed for their access road to El Camino Real.
“The development plan is shockingly large in scale for a plot of land less than two acres in size, with or without a density bonus,” said a letter from Rena Wallenius. Despite that, the Oceanside Planning Commission voted 3-1 to approve the project Monday, with Commissioner Louise Balma voting no. Balma said she agreed with the concerns raised by residents.
Representatives of the developer said they are doing their best to build much-needed housing within state and local guidelines, which is sometimes a balancing act. “We are in a new era,” said Gary Miller, an architect working on the project. “These new laws have turned housing development on its ear.”
