The Development Feasibility Analysis (DFA) Report is Now Available!
Dear Interested Stakeholder,
The County of San Diego Planning & Development Services (PDS) is pleased to inform you that the Development Feasibility Analysis (DFA) report is now available for review. The DFA report presents the DFA’s findings, a summary of the outreach conducted, technical analyses, and recommendations.
The DFA was conducted to understand the opportunities and barriers to housing development, such as infrastructure or zoning. While the primary intent of the DFA was to identify parcel-specific barriers to development, the analysis revealed broader challenges that must be addressed to support housing development. The DFA outlines eight actionable recommendations to address these barriers to housing development by identifying investments and key actions needed to advance housing.
The study was conducted in four unincorporated communities: Buena Creek, Valle de Oro/Casa de Oro, Lakeside, and Spring Valley. These communities were selected for their potential to streamline new housing due to factors such as proximity to transit, location in VMT-efficient or infill areas, availability of vacant parcels, funding opportunities, alignment with other County initiatives, and environmental justice considerations. The County met with residents, businesses, and community organizations to support technical analyses that explore the market and financial feasibility of housing development and existing infrastructure to support development.
Thank you for your contribution!
