A homeowner in a sparsely populated, rural and largely undeveloped area of San Diego County owns a parcel of approximately 20 acres, comparable to some of his neighbors, but smaller than a number of other landowners, some of whom wish to develop portions of their existing land. The homeowner’s property is located at the end of the "tract" which encompasses all of the homeowners in the area, including the group who wish to become developers.
The same homeowner’s property is contiguous to a very large tract of property presumably approved for development. A dirt road easement exists on the homeowner’s property, one half owned by the homeowner and one half owned by one of the large property owners who wish to link to the development, and enhance the value of their properties to be developed.
The group wish to pave the dirt easement and connect it to the large tract of homes proposed by using the easement on the homeowner’s property. If the easement is paved, it will permit access to both the “ approved tract “, and the proposed acreage of the property owners by way of several freeway exits. Paving the easement will make the easement literally a "raceway" and or a shortcut in times of congested traffic (almost daily) during the week.
The homeowner has a designated open space running across his property and over the 20 acres, including an area crossing the easement in question.
After numerous pieces of correspondence with the County, County Counsel, meetings with County personnel, County Counsel and others involved, and various site visits, the County did not permit a secondary access route to be placed on this easement.
