Briefly

Copies of the draft environmental report for Costa Mesa’s revised Home

Ranch development proposal are available at City Hall, 77 Fair Drive; the

Mesa Verde Library, 2969 Mesa Verde Drive East; and the Costa Mesa

Library, 1855 Park Ave.

Home Ranch, a 90-acre project originally scheduled for Planning

Commission review in June, has been redesigned to add housing, as well as

reduce building heights and the square-foot density of the office space.

The modified proposal for the site, a lima bean farm bordered by the

San Diego Freeway, Fairview Road, Harbor Boulevard and Sunflower Avenue,

calls for a 17-acre Ikea furniture store, 950,000 square feet of office

space and 464 homes.

The city will accept public comments on the project until Feb. 16.

The Planning Commission will review comments about the report at a

public hearing at 6:30 p.m. Feb. 12 at City Hall.
