The Los Angeles City Council approved the final map for Tract No. 83416, allowing the subdivision of one 50,985-square-foot lot into five single-family residential lots at 21815 and 21825 West San Jose Street, west of Jordan Avenue. The project includes the construction of five two-story single-family homes, each with an attached two-car garage. The approval also includes a Subdivision Improvement Agreement with security documents. The project will replace an existing 3,890-square-foot residence and detached garage, and it requires the removal of nine unprotected trees while preserving 15 protected trees on-site. The subdivision was reviewed for environmental impacts under CEQA and determined to be categorically exempt under Class 32 (infill development).
This subdivision enables the development of five new single-family homes in the Chatsworth-Porter Ranch community, increasing housing availability in a desirable suburban neighborhood. The project balances development with environmental considerations by preserving protected trees and ensuring compliance with city planning and zoning regulations.
