Rams Hill in Borrego to get redesign

The San Diego-based civil engineering and land planning firm of Lundstrom + Associates has been retained to provide civil engineering and planning services for Rams Hill Country Club, a master-planned community in Borrego Springs that will be redesigned to feature custom and estate homes, 36 holes of championship golf on the 3,200 acres. Rams Hill is a 1980 plan.

With lot sizes ranging from 4,000 square feet to over 2 acres, the redesign will offer attached and detached residences, including custom and estate homes, in six neighborhoods. In addition, the developers are recruiting a nationally recognized golf course design professional to design the community's two 18-hole championship golf courses.

Four recreation centers within the community will offer spa and fitness facilities, tennis courts and swimming pools.

Planning is now under way and construction is anticipated to begin in June 2005 with a build out projected through 2011.

Lundstrom was retained by The Wiles Group, G.H. Capital and Borrego Investors LLC. The Wiles Group is a full-service, national management and consulting development firm that specializes in envisioning, strategic planning, development management, marketing and sales for the real estate, golf, country club and resort development industry.
