• PASO ROBLES <br />PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT <br />I. INTRODUCTION <br />A. SUMMARY <br />Paso Robles is a 1,338 -acre community designed to capture the rural style and beauty <br />of the Texas Hill Country. It is approximately five miles southwest of downtown San <br />Marcos and Texas State University. <br />Development of the Paso Robles Plan is based on a thorough examination of various <br />physical, environmental and social aspects including: <br />• Natural Environment (Trees, Topography and Drainage) <br />• Transportation <br />• Population and Demographics <br />• Public Facilities and Services <br />• Land Use and Zoning <br />• Development Opportunities and Constraints (including impervious cover over the <br />is Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone, protection of the Edwards Aquifer and streams <br />from the impacts of development and changes in land use) <br />Working with the City and the property's topography and vegetation, Paso Robles will <br />create neighborhood areas and community use spaces that take advantage of the <br />distant views and vistas within the community as well as to other city and regional area <br />locations. <br />The Paso Robles PDD will create a sense of place by providing for a mixture of uses. A <br />variety of housing types will offer a range of prices and recreational opportunities will <br />develop in the form of common areas, trails, and an 18 -hole golf course. The trail <br />system will offer neighborhood connectivity as well as access to daily activities that are <br />within walking distance, reducing dependency on vehicular travel. <br />In addition while Paso Robles is anticipated to be primarily an Active Adult (age <br />restricted / targeted) community, this Plan also provides for a broad range of primary <br />market residential housing. Broadening the market base greatly increases the <br />community's ability to attract a variety of demographics as it matures. <br />-1- <br />
