Blackstone Village Park Project (Valley View)
Overview of the Valley View Specific Plan and Park/Open Space Development
Valley View Specific Plan
The Valley View Specific Plan covers the 2,037 acres of land south of Highway 50 and south of El Dorado Hills Town Center along Latrobe Road. The Valley View development is situated to the East of Latrobe Road and across from the El Dorado Hills Business Park.
The Valley View Specific Plan calls for three separate villages of housing and community development; West Valley Village, East Ridge Village, and White Rock Village. This development contains high-density residential, multi-family residential, and medium density residential.
Park & Open Space Development
There are currently three park spaces within the Valley View Specific Plan that have been acquired by the El Dorado Hills Community Services District. The first site, Valley View Sports Park, is a fully-developed park located adjacent to the Montessori school property. Valley View Sports Park opened in February 2015. There are two other sites that have been acquired and are being evaluated for development.
Park Site # 1: This park site is predominately an Oak Grove located in a ravine area, located north of Cornerstone Drive; this park is suitable for a passive/low-impact design
Park Site # 2: This park is predominately a wetland area located at Blackstone Parkway and Keystone Drive; this park could accommodate an active/moderate-impact design
