The project consists of a Major Use Permit (MUP) for the construction and operation of a phased cemetery on approximately 14.5-acres. Phase one of the project consists of installation of landscaping, a parking lot, and access improvements in the southeastern portion of the property. The existing residence would be retained as part of phase one. Phase two of the project consists of construction and grading of the majority of the property, the remodeling of the existing residence into an approximately 2,200 square foot construction of an administration building, additional parking and landscaping, and road improvements along Buena Vista Drive. The site is subject to the Semi-Rural Regional Category and the Semi-Rural (SR-1) General Plan Land Use Designation. The Zoning Use Regulation for the site is Limited Agriculture (A70). Earthwork of full buildout of the project consists of approximately 5,300 cubic yards of cut, 7,800 cubic yards of fill, and 2,500 cubic yards of import upon completion of Phase two. Access will be provided by a driveway connecting to Buena Vista Road. A Certificate of Compliance for merging the properties will be required as a condition of approval of the Major Use Permit. A road vacation of Keys Place will be required and the on-site road network will be constructed within portions of Keys Place. The project is located at 1505 Buena Vista Drive and near Keys Place within the North County Metropolitan Subregional Planning Area. The project has been reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act and a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) was prepared for the project and circulated for public review. The Planning Commission will determine whether to approve or deny the MUP and whether to find the project in conformance with the California Environmental Quality Act through the adoption of an MND.

On July 25, 2018, the County Board of Supervisors (Board) approved entitlements for the Harmony Grove Village South project and certified its Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR). On February 20, 2020, the trial court ruled that the Project's EIR violated CEQA. As a result of the litigation, the project has revised its Green house gas mitigation measure and added an affordable housing condition. There are no other changes to the previously entitled project. The project proposes a mixed use development, including 453 single family and multi-family residential units and 5,000 square feet of commercial/ civic uses; 35 acres of biological open space; four acres of public and private parks; public trails and a wastewater treatment facility site. The project site is located within the Harmony Grove-Elfin Forest Subarea of the San Dieguito Community Plan Area. (APNs: 235-011-06 and 238-021-08, 09, 10, -11)
