OVERVIEW
On December 3, 2013 (18), the Board of Supervisors (Board) declared County of San Diego (County) Parcel Number 2013-0091-A (Property 1) surplus to County needs. Property 1 is also identified as Assessor's Parcel Number (APN) 381-051-17 and consists of approximately 11.71 acres of vacant land located immediately south of the Edgemoor Skilled Nursing Facility. The property is zoned TC-R-14, 14 to 22 residential units per acre. In November 2016, the County issued a Notice of Availability per State of California Surplus Land Act (SLA) and attempted to sell the property twice to repay the Edgemoor Development Fund, per Board Policy F-38, Edgemoor Property Development.
On August 1, 2024, the County issued the Notice of Availability (NOA) as required by SLA to local public entities, as defined by Section 50079 of the Health and Safety Code, that have jurisdiction where the surplus land is located and to California Housing Finance Agency Certified Housing Sponsors, as defined by Section 50074 of the Health and Safety Code, that have notified the California Department of Housing and Community Development of their interest in surplus land for the development of affordable housing. In accordance with SLA, interested parties were given 60 days to respond to the NOA. The County did not receive interest from any public entities, but did receive proposals from three housing sponsors, and entered into a good faith negotiation period with the selected developer as required by SLA. However, the County and the selected developer were not able to agree on mutually satisfactory terms for the sale.
