Protect the Covenant
- Who We Are -
Protect the Covenant is a rapidly growing group, consisting of hundreds of Rancho Santa Fe Association members and numerous residents of other homeowners associations within the San Dieguito River Valley area, that is working to preserve the area’s rural character and oppose commercial development outside of the downtown area of Rancho Santa Fe. We are extremely concerned about the proposed Silvergate high-density rental project at the corner of Calzada del Bosque and Via de la Valle.
This project threatens:
- Traffic safety and flow
- The dark sky policy
- Disaster, if Hodges dam breaks or a major flood occurs
- The continued relevance of Rancho Santa Fe’s Protective Covenant, which has served to inform and regulate the types and sizes of developments within our community for over a century.
If approved, this project will set a precedent that will further encourage other high-density developments within Rancho Santa Fe and the surrounding area, which will ultimately lead to the accelerated erosion of the rural character of Rancho Santa Fe and the broader San Dieguito River Valley community.
Now is the time for residents of Rancho Santa Fe, and of the numerous homeowners associations that lie within or along the San Dieguito River Valley, to raise our collective voices in opposition to this massive project.
