Residents getting a fresh look at the Village of Marble Valley and Lime Rock specific plans during a June 11 open house shared their concerns about fire mitigation, traffic and transportation impacts, water usage, General Plan amendments and the magnitude of the developments as they viewed environmental documents and project-specific information. The projects' sites south of Highway 50 cover more than 3,000 acres — land that once thrived as a limestone quarry and mining operations. Together the developments propose more than 4,000 mixed-density housing units along with commercial components and other amenities, which residents had a chance to learn about during the open house hosted by county officials at the Cameron Park Community Center Tuesday evening.
Draft environmental impact reports have been released for both projects and are currently available for public and agency review at edc.gov.us/Planning or the El Dorado County Government Center Building C 2850 Fairlane Court in Placerville.
