The City proposes to vacate portions of the street rights-of-way along Trabuco Creek and Rosenbaum Roads that are no longer needed for public street purposes. The City also proposes to sell approximately 1,115 sq. ft. of unimproved property to an adjacent property owner, as the parcel’s size and irregular configuration make it unsuitable for standalone public use. A map of the proposed street vacation areas is available for public inspection at the City Clerk’s Office, 32400 Paseo Adelanto, San Juan Capistrano, CA 92675. The areas generally include portions of Rosenbaum and Trabuco Creek Roads lying southeasterly of the northwesterly right-of-way line of Trabuco Creek Road, except for the northeasterly 80 feet. The street vacation proceedings are conducted pursuant to the California Streets and Highways Code, Division 9, Part 3, Chapter 1. A public hearing will be held on May 19 to receive protests regarding the proposed street vacations and property sale, and to consider approval of the street vacations and a Purchase and Sale Agreement. The agreement will be available on the City’s website at www.sanjuancapistrano.org once the May 19, 2026, City Council agenda is published.
