Dear Interested Community Members, We want to hear from you! The County of San Diego (County) Planning & Development Services (PDS) invites you to attend a virtual Open House for the Tiered Winery Rural Residential (RR) Expansion project. Staff will present proposed zoning ordinance updates, review key public feedback received during the draft review period, and share how that feedback shaped the final draft. Draft zoning ordinance amendments were available for public review from July 7 to August 6, 2026. These amendments addressed the Board of Supervisors (Board) 2024 direction to explore allowing smaller winery tiers in RR zones. The draft ordinance amendments also incorporate revisions in response to 2026 Board direction to review the 30% criteria for designated tasting and retail sales area to provide greater flexibility for outdoor spaces and to reassess how outdoor amplified live music is assessed for compliance with the County’s Noise Ordinance. Other proposed changes include, but are not limited to; • Proposed standards to allow a by-right pathway for Boutique Wineries in RR zones. • Provisions allowing a temporary waiver of the grape sourcing requirements in the event of a natural disaster causing crop failure. • Allowing vehicles with an occupancy greater than 15 people to serve a Boutique Winery during special, closed-to-the-public activities to ensure occupancy is not exceeded. • Allowances for informal seating in outdoor areas. This project includes updates to the Tiered Winery Zoning Ordinance (Section 6910), new and revised operating standards, and a review of potential environmental effects under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Open House Topic: Proposed Final Draft Zoning Ordinance Changes Staff will present the final draft zoning ordinance changes planned for Planning Commission and Board consideration later this year. The Open House will highlight key themes in public feedback, how public and interdepartmental feedback shaped the final draft, and staff will gather any final comments. Residents, business owners, agritourism partners, and agricultural organizations are encouraged to participate.
