Reduction of Miller Ranch buffer lot (Lot 15)

Thousand Oaks

Summary

A Upper Ranch Road homeowner appealed the approval of a lot line adjustment that shifts about 1.36 acres of HOA buffer land to three residential lots, nearly eliminating the buffer along her property line. Neighbors say the buffer was promised in a 2013 mediated agreement; the city says that MOU is private and can't be considered.
