1.3.1 Regional Setting¶
The Camp Lockett Master Plan and Rezone area is located in the Campo/Lake Morena Planning Area in the south-central area of unincorporated San Diego County. The project area is approximately 39 miles southeast of downtown San Diego, 0.28 miles north of the international border with Mexico, 12 miles west of the Campo Indian Reservation and the community of Boulevard, 14 miles south of I-8 and the community of Pine Valley, and eight miles east of the community of Potrero (refer to Figure 2, Regional Location Map).
Buckman Springs Road is the primary connector to the north linking directly to Interstate 8 (I-8) and Historic Highway 80. State Route 94 (SR-94) is the primary connector for east and westbound travelers.
1.3.2 Local Setting¶
The project site is located in the unincorporated portion of eastern San Diego County, in the community of Campo/Lake Morena, immediately west of the community of Boulevard, south of the community of Pine Valley, and east of the community of Portero (refer to Figure 3, Vicinity Map).
The rural village of Cameron Corners is located just north of the site at the center of SR-94 and Buckman Springs Road. At one time, it was a stop along the historic stage routes. It is currently designated for highway-related businesses and residential lots. SYH and existing residential uses are located along Buckman Springs Road just north of SR-94. The site is physically constrained by steep topography and open space to the west.
The project site is primarily accessed from SR-94 via Forest Gate Road. The Mountain Empire Community Center sits at the heart of the site, located approximately 0.5 miles east of SR-94 and Forest Gate Road. Chaffee Park, generally located east of Forest Gate Road and west of Wheeler Road, is the most prominent organic landscape feature of the area. This natural mature grove of coast live oak trees is furnished with picnic tables and is used for recreational purposes.
