Developer Withdraws Plans for San Diego County Sprawl Project

October 21, 2019

Thanks in large part to the firm’s advocacy on behalf of the Endangered Habitats League, in 2019 an applicant withdraws its plans to develop the Warner Ranch project just before it was slated for its hearing before the San Diego County Planning Commission. The project, widely recognized as yet another leapfrog development in San Diego’s fire-prone backcountry, would have destroyed habitat for myriad rare and endangered species such as the least Bell’s vireo, arroyo toad, California gnatcatcher, coastal cactus wren, and nesting golden eagles.
