1985 Mission Trails Regional Park Master Development Plan being updated.
The City of San Diego City Planning and Community Investment Department, Park Planning Section has initiated a formal Master Plan Update (MPU) process for Mission Trail Regional Park (MTRP). The MTRP MPU process includes a series of public workshops to engage local stakeholders and the interested public in the identification and refinement of future development options for MTRP.
As part of the MPU process, a Natural Resource Management Plan (NRMP) is also being prepared. The NRMP, a requirement of the Multiple Species Conservation Program (MSCP), is being developed concurrently with the MPU to ensure that protection and management concerns for both environmental and cultural resources have been fully assessed and integrated into the MPU.
A Programmatic Environmental Impact Report (EIR) will also be written as a part of this effort to ensure California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) compliance for all proposed facilities and management activities planned as part of both the MPU and NRMP. Due to the programmatic nature of the EIR, supplemental detailed CEQA consistency analysis may be required for the future development and management activities.
The public is encouraged to participate in the MPU process by way of three planned public workshops. The first workshop was held on January 27, 2011 and focused on the identification of objectives, issues and concerns, as well as ideas for future facilities within MTRP. The second workshop was held on March 31, 2011 and focused on a review of opportunities and constraints and the prioritization of various facility alternatives.
The third workshop was held on June 9th, 6:00 PM at the Visitor and Interpretive Center. The workshop focused on a preferred development alternative being considered for Mission Trails Regional Park, including the future expansion areas of East Elliott and West Sycamore. Comments received at the workshop will be considered during the development of the written Master Plan Update and Natural Resource Management Plan that will be subsequently presented to the MTRP Citizens Advisory Committee, MTRP Task Force and San Diego City Council for approval.
