Opinions on future of Santee

[outtamojo]

Santee seems to be the new hotspot for new construction. Standard Pacific, Lennar and Barrat’s
Fanita Ranch are just a few of the builders that I know of that arebuilding or going to build over there. Is the new Santee going to be a great place to raise a family or ????

I believe that’s exactly what the Santee city council is trying to do. I vaguely remember sometime ago reading something about developing the area with golf course homes, and they are building that big sports park. (Not to mention all our neighborhood parks.) This all sounds like the stuff they have been doing in other building boom areas. They have been trying to get in move up housing for years. They have been saying people have to move out to move up, that we have plenty of starter homes.

The large majority of folks on this blog feel Santee is nothing but a big hick town. I however grew up here, and have been raising my kids here. I think Santee is the perfect place to put in roots and raise kids.

The condos on the west end were put there after the kmart went out, it was building boom time and the city changed the
zoning from business to residential. They couldn’t get Fanita Ranch passed so they snuck in houses/condos in every available spot imaginable. 1100 or so homes, while people were distracted focusing on Fanita.

Now we have new building at every school in the district, with plans to modernize every school. New media technology centers, libraries,and for the first time actual jr high schools 6-8th grad being built. Santee has always had k-8 schools.

We were told that the new Fanita Ranch area would have new schools, but now the school enrollment is so low, the district says they don’t need it. The kids will be going to 2 different (already existing)schools.

If you believe that the “La Jolla of East County” can somehow support a few thousand $600,000+ homes over the next 5 years, good luck.

I think the “Klantee” stigma sill reigns.

I do believe that once San Diego’s population grows Santee will become more attractive to many middle-income families due to more affordable housing. However, it will never become “La Jolla of East County” due to its location away from the ocean and its history. The new developments on Rattlesnake Mountain by Lennar are nice but they are way overpriced, especially “Eaglecrest”. There is no way a buyer can make any profit within the next 10 years on a resale.
