SUBJEOfls Tentative Parcel Map for Marino Garbis, AP 56-05-6
DATE: June 10, 1982
As with the tentative neap icor Dick Chappell heard on June 13
198.2, a cluster arrangement of the homesites Would }elp reduce'
the impacts to wildlife, particularly migratory deer. This
mitigation measure was developed in consultation with Four
topresentatilres of the California Department of Fish and Game
on acid after May 6, 1982.
The measure would road, as follows or words to this effect.
"Show (on the ten, ative and final maps) the proposed
building sites in a cluster arrangement, Sates would
be around: a limited developable area adjacent to the
access road and towage disposalareas, thereby reducing
impacts of vegetation clearing; earthwork and road
building costs and encroachmen-t upon, deer range . " _
Implementation of this measure would reduce, but not completely
eliminatei the impact on the migratory wiiz]li,fe,
Conflicts are noted with t}ie tezctative map i.n relation to
Certain
policies din' the Genex•al Plan, The project would, "pe or
may be ILncons,istent with theGeneral flan policies to.
a) correlate residential density to soil, slope and
other natural site ch4racto7`a8tics, availability
of Water and sewage disposal and other public
facilities (.Land Use Ploment, Hage 34) ;
b) relate residential densities to intensity and compati-
bility of adjacent uses (band Use Diement, page 54) ,
c) regulate development in identified winter door ranges
to :facilitate the survival of deer h,ordr (1,and Use
Llement, page 41) (State Pish and Game k.onsa ',%ts
40 acres a maximum density for deer ranges); also
Section 66474(c) of the Subdivision Map Act that
the design of tentative maps are not to ''substantially
and avoidably injure fish o -r wil.dlito or their habitat"

Dear Mr. Garbis:
At the regular meeting of the Butte County Advisory Agency 'held on
May 3, 1.982, the agehay denied'your tentative parse]. trap for
AP 56-,05,61. This project was denied based upon County Counsel's
opii1ion that a map cannot be sonar? -A one4 to meet requirements of
another agency for approval. The densel was also based on the
conflict with General Plan policies of .pre 6rvation of deer migration
areas and as pointed out by the Dept. of :Gish and Game. The denial
was also based on the Planning Department's support of the Department
of Public Works' positian regarding tlae public road connection and the
need for further ehvironinental douements to process ita
if no appeai6 are timely filed --"within ten (10) days of the slate of the
Advisory Agency's denials -with the Clerl; of the Board of 8uperV'SsurS,, this
action will be final.

III. b1SCU8SION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION
This project proposes to divide 42.5 acres into four separate parcels,
ranging ;from, 3.8 to 27.3 acres in $ize. There are no structures on
'the sites, although the parcels have been partially graded. An,
unimproved, gravel road, Altat: na ',!oad, provides access to the project
area. The sites are located within 1A miles or T ghway, 32, the major
traffic route for the area
The current Butte County General Plan designates the site and surrounding
area as Agricultural Residuntial (A -R). The existing zoning is Awl
General. The size and intended use of -the parcels may not conform to
the requirements detst.led in these regulationsr the proposed division
must meet tine Conditional Development oriterLa detailed in the Bette
County General Plan.
Most chaparral brf the ash arite e dense ovea is er muchd of �of the imberl property.lthough maThenita terrain it
this vicinity is rugged, characterized by steep slopes, deep canyons
and weathered rock formations. On-site topography is sass severe,
.having more gently rolling slopes and level base areas. Shallow,
cobbly soils make the, project site susceptible to erosion problems,
a16 in dry periods, hie-hly-combustible vegetation would pose a --serious
re hazard to the awe. -1. A county fare station is located 5-6 miles
north of the project- : Lte, and on-site water storage tanks are planned
for each parcel. Scattered housing on parcels averaging 1015 acres
in size exist in this vicinity, though much of the 'surrounding 1 and
is open space on large parcels,.
Project development would not threaten any 'mitical plant habitats
or rare and endangered plant i4, The pvoj e.. would promote high energy
consumption since commerci.xl distri.o'to ,id public 'services are located
6+ miles from the project oite. Bul,te County must also absorb oosts
for maintaining A,ltat ins Road after it is ded cated to the county,
Conformance to site ;.osign standards that reduce hazards frox earth-
quakes and soil erosion, and maintenance of the primary access roads
Altatina ltoad, for surfaoe drai.na o, and emergency vehicles could
mitigate potentially si.gniiicant imp., resul.tins from the project.
The s i.te specific.and cumulative area-wido impacts have been found
significant enough to warrent the preparation of an environmental
impact report (En).

be greatly increased. Construction of imperlaious surfaces would
generate additional stormwater runoff. This additional runoff could �+
cause an is creae e in erosion along the edge of the access roads and

area. Drainage channels would be required or necessary along Altatina

Subject: Betteed Tenta ive(SCH Parcel Map
for Marino* Garbis, AP 56=CIS-61,
The Department of Fish and Game has reviewed the subject document;
The project is a proposed land division of 42.5 acres into three
separate parcels, 8.5 actes, 6.8 acres, and 27.3 acres in size,
for use as homesites. The project is located approximately 10
miles north of Chico and 1�, miles east of State Highway 32. The
proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration does not adequately address
the adverse impacts on wildlife, not does it propose wildlife
mitigation. ...We, recommend that the Tentative Parcel Map be denied.
A March 28, 1980.environmental study to.t art earlier tentative
Parcel niap for the same property `indicated there would be significant
cumulative impacts. The present analysis does not consider the
impacts significant, and no mitigation measures _are proposed:
The Department maintains the cumulative impacts ,on wil.dlite habitat
are very significant. Adjacent parcels have been developed and
adverse impacts on wildlife habitat have occurred, but this does
not render the prbperty under consideration: useless for wildlife.
Adverse impacts from past projects and those that can be expected
from present and future projects will be highly significant in the
Tittle Chico Creek Canyoh-Doe Mill Ridge area. At least two 1,000+
acre subdivisiohs and "several other tentative parcel maps are being l

Until such time as specific zoning is enacted which reflects
the policies and land use designations of the General Plan,
these types of conflicts will occur. The Planning Department
has previously indicated that a minimum parcel site of 5 acres
would be appropriate provided other planning criteria from
county and state agencies could be met, tesoluti.on of these
policy interpretations will ultimately reed to come from the
Board of supervisors.
Tile following condition would be appvopr".ate. in light of
