January 22, 2018 (Lakeside)—San Diego County Supervisors will hold a hearing Wednesday on Lake Jennings Marketplace, a proposed retail strip shopping center on Olde Highway 80 in Lakeside. The project by South Coast Development requires approval of an environmental impact report, a General Plan amendment and rezoning of residential land to commercial.
But opponents say the developer earlier promised to build multi-family housing on the site, not a shopping center. Cleveland National Forest Association (CNFF) and a local restaurant owner are heading up opposition to the project, saying what the community needs is housing, not more retail.
