Esperanza Estates, Esparto, CA

Challenge

Create site plans and improvement plans to maximize the number of units for an approximately 27 acre parcel located on the west side of town. The site is limited by agricultural buffers on the North and West sides and an existing subdivision on the East side.

Solution

Laugenour and Meikle coordinated with other design consultants, multiple regulatory agencies and the developer to complete a 95 unit single family subdivision. Onsite improvements consisted of grading plans, underground utilities and drainage design. The developer also was required to complete offsite improvements including extension of a 10" wastewater main within Woodland Avenue, from Yolo Avenue to Alpha Street, and one additional wastewater treatment pond.

Outcome

The project maximized the number of residential units, while meeting all storm drainage detention requirements, offsite improvements, and regulatory agency requirements.
