INTRODUCTION & OVERVIEW

Once used as a mountain retreat and resort, Wildwood Glen holds a rich history, remnants of which remain

to this day. The guest home, once known as Sycamore Cabin is the last remaining of the original cabins

that once hosted a wide variety of visitors from San Diego county and beyond. The main house boasts an

original stone fireplace and plenty of character left from its days of origin. The foundation of the main

home has been updated and new, pressure treated center beams and posts have been placed. Original rock

formations, footbridges and cabin foundations are found throughout the property. The site is zoned for

condominium use which makes it attractive as a private residence or for potential restoration to the popular

retreat it once was. The property lines have been recently surveyed and markers are in place.

NATURAL SETTING

Topographically, the ranch is varied. The core of the ranch features a very gentle slope at its entrance and

while traveling toward the main house, passing the guest home and meandering by the other features along

the way. The seasonal creeks and pond provide tranquil spaces and the watershed lends itself to supporting

much of the vegetation found throughout the property. At its height, the pond holds 270,000 gallons and

overflow feeds into a nearby creek, ultimately reaching Sweetwater Creek which runs near the main house

along the property. Well-fed, drip irrigation provides water to the orchard and other gardening area.

Large, mature oaks and Sycamores dominate the indigenous landscape. Great consideration was given to

the natural beauty of this property. Existing infrastructure makes this property ideal for horses and other

livestock as well as backyard poultry or other birds. The enclosed chicken coop and aviary are constructed

to protect from predators and are equipped with running water.

AREA INFORMATION

The town of Alpine is conveniently located along Interstate 8, at the base of the Cuyamaca Mountains.

This rural community is highly desirable based on its small town feel and close proximity to the major

metro areas of San Diego. Largely surrounded by the Cleveland National Forest, Alpine offers extensive

outdoor recreational activities including hiking and biking trails, as well as shopping, dining and

entertainment at nearby Viejas Casino and Outlets. There are many fine restaurants and lodging

accommodations in the immediate area of this centrally, yet privately located property.

WHAT IS ZONING?

The Zoning Ordinance was adopted by the Board of Supervisors to regulate land uses in the unincorporated (non-

city) portions of the County of San Diego. The unincorporated area is divided into zones according to the present

and potential uses of the land. A business that may be out of place in a single-family neighborhood may fit

comfortably among other businesses. By zoning land, citizens insure that new growth and development will take

place according to an orderly plan.

To fulfill the requirements of State law, the County has also prepared a General Plan. The Plan is an outline for

the future. To be effective and to conform to State law, the Zoning Ordinance and zoning maps must be consistent

with the General Plan, because they are the primary methods for achieving the objectives of the Plan. The Zoning

Ordinance is not the only land use regulation which is applicable to property. Others are listed in the back of the

brochure

HOW IS THE ORDINANCE ORGANIZED?

The San Diego County ordinance differs from most zoning ordinances in certain key respects. Many zoning

ordinances utilize zones such as RR, A70, etc., which specify not only the uses permitted, but also lot size,

density, height, building types, animal regulations and other requirements. The Zoning Ordinance of the County of

San Diego separates each of these subjects and governs each with an individual designator. The designators are

found in the appropriate schedules of the Zoning Ordinance.

A “zone” is the combination of the Use Regulation and the other regulations, i.e., the entire zone “box.” The Use Regulation is not the zone, but specifies the permitted uses. Other regulations are indicated by the designator for the subject. In most cases a dash (-) or blank space indicates that a particular designator is not used. However, in density a dash (-) indicates the General Plan Land Use Designation shall be referred to for the maximum allowed density. Because a zone is the combination of all designators, a change in any designator requires a zone reclassification.

You should be aware that the County does not have standardized zones. Side-by-side parcels may have the same use regulation but may have different animal, development, and special area regulations.

EXAMPLE OF A ZONE BOX:

This is an example of a zone box for a zone commonly used for

single family dwellings on 6,000 square foot lots:

HOW TO GET THE ZONE BOX FOR YOUR PROPERTY:

The zone box for your property is not found in the Zoning Ordinance text. The purpose of the text is to set forth the regulations listed in the box. The actual zoning regulations applied to property in the unincorporated area are found in our Geographic Information System (GIS).

To get the complete zoning information on a parcel of land, it is recommended that you visit our GIS website. To use the GIS website, you will need to know the Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) of the property.

numbers, such as RC, M50, or A72. The basic types of Use Regulations are residential (R), commercial (C),

manufacturing and industrial (M), agricultural (A), special purpose (S) and village (V).

Each basic type of Use Regulation has several variations. For example, agriculture can be A70 or A72. Part

Two of the Zoning Ordinance (beginning at Section 2000) describes each Use Regulation, what uses are

allowed in it, and what kinds of uses require a permit. The Use Regulations are summarized in Table A

(attached).

Animal Regulations

The Animal Regulations apply to the keeping of animals. Sections 3000 and 3120 of the Zoning Ordinance

contain the Animal Regulations. The Animal Regulations designator can be found in the Animal Schedule

(attached). The designator also specifies the animal enclosure setback regulations (attached).

Development Regulations

The Development Regulations are found in Section 4000 to 4920 of the Zoning Ordinance. They are intended

to establish regulations regarding the physical character and intensity of development. There are nine

development designators, which are listed in the middle of the Zone Box under Development Regulations.

When a property is located with a Village Zone, a dash (-) specifies that regulations are located within the

applicable Village Zone Development Regulations. The meaning of each letter or number is below:

Density: Number indicates dwelling units per net acres, dash (-) indicates refer to the General Plan for

density

Lot Size: Number indicates required net lot area in square feet, unless acres are specified.

Building Type: Letter indicates building designator on the “Building Type Schedule” (Schedule A,

attached).

Maximum Floor Area: Number indicates the maximum floor area expressed in thousands of square feet,

i.e., “10” indicates 10,000 and “2.5” indicates 2,500 square feet.

Floor Area Ratio: Number is ratio of total floor area to area of lot.

Height: Letter indicates height designator on the Height Schedule (Schedule B, attached).

Lot Coverage. The maximum area of a building site which may be covered by a building is indicated by

either of the following numbers:

a. A decimal fraction specifies the maximum lot coverage as a fraction of the total building site.

b. A whole number specifies the maximum coverage in square feet.

If both are specified, the more restrictive applies.

Setback: The letter indicates the setback designator on the Setback Schedule (Schedule C, attached). Be

sure to check the Setback Schedule footnotes for any special information.

Certain streets may have special setbacks. See Section 4816 of the Ordinance for the listing of those

streets. Some streets may have additional setback requirements if they are part of the County General

Plan Circulation Element.

Useable Open Space: The letter designator refers to required open space for multiple-family dwellings as

shown on the Usable Space Schedule (Schedule D, attached).

Special Area Regulations

The purpose of the Special Area Regulations is to set forth special regulations which have limited applications,

such as floodplains, and ensure that consideration is given to areas of special interest or unusual value. Table

B, attached, lists the Special Area designators. You should consult Sections 5000 to 5964 of the Ordinance for

further details.

ENCLOSURE REGULATIONS

The Enclosure Regulations are not part of the Zone Box, but they are part of the zoning regulations. Their

purpose is to set forth the type of enclosure, if any, of buildings and other structures or areas used for the

purpose of accommodating various uses, including accessory uses. The degree of enclosure required depends

on the Use Type and the Use Regulations or Special Area Regulations. See the Enclosure Matrix, Table C,

attached. Enclosure requirements are also specified within applicable Village Zone Development Regulations.

Consult Section 6814 of the Ordinance for exceptions to the enclosure requirements.
