Current Status Of This Project

The project is located at the intersection of Amboy Road and Gammel Road about six miles east of Adobe Road on Twentynine Palms. The current “pink” building on that some refer to as “the old post office” but it was most likely a Southern California Edison facility. (County ownership rolls show that Edison owned this site back to 1981, but then was transferred to a series of private owners until acquired by the current owners in 2020.

The Project site is partially designated as 3.18 acres of Commercial Service (CS), a portion of A.P.N. 0625-071-04 and 131.42 acres of Rural Living (RL-5). The Project Conditional Use Permit application includes a rezoning request for 21.22 acres of RL-5 to CS zoning to provide the 25 acres for the Project. The owners and developers of this parcel also own an additional ~134.5 acres adjacent and mostly to the south of the main parcel. The CUP application record can be viewed on the County Land Use Services Planning site as record number PROJ-2021-00163.

The developers submitted applications for the Conditional Use Permit in November 2021 and appear to be in the process of submitting various required surveys to Land Use Services (LUS) with the goal of having the project approved by the County Planning Commission and ultimately the Board Of Supervisors. It is expected that this process could take six to 12 months.

After LUS review it is expected that the public will have access to the various environmental surveys submitted at the Environment, Desert Region site. You may sign up for email updates there as they are posted.
