| The area described by the Florin-Vineyard Community
Plan comprises approximately 3,450+ acres and is
located within the communities of Vineyard and South
Sacramento. The term "Gap" has been used to refer
to this area because it is located between the existing
urban area to the west of Elk Grove-Florin Road
and a comprehensively planned urban area to the
east (i.e., North Vineyard Station and Vineyard
Springs). This area is bordered by Elder Creek Road
and the Sacramento City limits on the north; Bradshaw
Road, excluding the North Vineyard Station Specific
Plan area on the east; Churchill Downs and the Vintage
Park area on the south; and the City of Sacramento,
the Union Pacific Railroad tracks, and Elk Grove
Florin Road on the west. It is situated in roughly
the geographic center of Sacramento County, about
9 miles southeast of the central business district
of the City of Sacramento. |

The Florin-Vineyard planning area contains
approximately 660 separate Assessors parcels.
The population of this area is not known. Information
from the 2000 Census does not define the irregular
boundaries of this planning area. There are several
established single family "ranchette" neighborhoods
within this area such as those found along McCoy
Avenue, Caselman Road, and BarDu Lane. Champion
Gold Course is located at the intersection of
Elk Grove-Florin Road. A US Post Office is located
at the intersection of Elk Grove-Florin Road and
Florin Road. There are several miscellaneous industrial
busineses located along the northern boundary
of the planning area. Vacant pasture land is currently
the predominant land use pattern in this area.
