These tract maps were approved by City Council on April 16, 2025, and Phase 1 is currently under construction.
Tract Map 37409-5 (TM37409-5) is a proposed subdivision of 22.87 gross acres into 56 single- family residential lots, with 1.14 acres dedicated and developed as part of a public paseo (Paseo Legado).
