Sadelle 'U- vv w; ` proposed Negative Declaration with mitigation measures regarding environmental impact and Rezone from A-10 (Agricultural 10 acre parcels) to SR -1 (Suburban Residential. 1 acre parcels) for property located on the east side of Highway 99, approximately 4,000 feet south of Keefer Road, identified as AP 047-440-012, Chico. (File 90-3) (Continued open from February 22, 1990) Robert Liptrap - proposed. Legative Declaration with mitigation measures regarding environmental impact and Rezone from A-10 (Agricultural - 10 acre parcels) for property located approximately 3/4 mile southeast of Keefer Road and Highway 99 intersection, on the east side of. Highway 99, identified as AP 047-260-138, Chico. (File 89-49) (Continued open from February 22, 1990) Staff suggested all three applications be heard together and the Commission agreed. Staff said since the last hearing there has been a meeting in Chico regarding an area referred to as the North Chico Area (4000 acre) which includes these parcels, Staff is trying to develop the concept of a specific plan for the entire area because the cumulative impacts of traffic and drainage would be very difficult to identify and address and mitigate on an individual basis. It is a regional issue: There is also concern about an elementary school in this area. Staff recognizes that the Board determined through the appeal process on the William Hauselt application for rezone, that a Mitigated Negative Declaration would be appropriate. Staff then applied the mitigations that had been recommended for the Hauselt property to the Levy and Uptrap properties, However at this time, it is staff's recommendation that the identified cumulative impacts for the area, can not be. considered for each individual parcel, but must be addressed for the region. Therefore, the recommendation for a Mitigated Negative Declaration for these three parcels would not be appropriate. Regional impacts are issue's that individual applicants can not address or mitigate. Staff is hoping that the property owners and/or developers will work together to finance the development of a specific plan for the area. There is no money in the County's budget to do the Plan of this size (between $80,000 to $10(1,000 cost). A Specific Plan would set out the land use for the area, roads to be developed, the .drainage system, and a plan for financing the infrastructures. Staff said that these three applications are properties that intricately tie to the circulation development of the. region inasmuch as Caltrans has approved one public road approach that would serve the three: properties, ;staff said if the Commission wants to send these projects forward staff would. caution that the ­ ivi.r6nmental determination is not appropriate at this time and that any recomaieridatioti going forward to the Board should either be for denial or to continue untl they arrow whether or not a Specif c flan for the area will be developed: Chairman Forbes asked about the document from the Department of the ,Army, would staff interpret this document for the Commission. bUttE::, co ftk PLAM9±MO CQDiAiuttt g M±M'bTt! AOJi�. 1 6 , w Staff f,,qd two comments. The Section entitled "404" regarding permits would still be .required. The same would apply to the FEMA floodplain maps. staff said there is a letter from the Corps of :13ngineers stating that the project is in an area. tha contains wetlands. Staff said the biggest concern is the riparian habitat along Keefer Slough. Staff said the problems are a'regional issue and very 'hard to look at site specific, Commissioner Lambert said she would like 'to be notified of the next meeting on an area. Specific Plan if there is one. Chairman Forbes said lye would like to be notified also, Commissioner Lynch asked how long it would ;flake to develop a Specific Plan anti how long until it would be in hearings. Staff estimated the time would be 4 months to put the Plan together (if it is financed) and approximately 9 months to one year total processing time. Commissioner Lambert questioned the time lines on the three project before the Commission now. Staff srid they have waiversfrom the applicants on the time lines in the files. y The hearing was opened to the public. Jill Bachman said that all three applicants are willing to go forward on their rezones today. She was aware of the proposed Specific Plan and EIR for the North Chico area, but these three rezones are compatible with the General Plan and Zoning of the area and the applicants have been waiting a long time for a decision. She said the traffic study was done for these projects which addresses cumulative traffic impacts: She said that approval of these 'rezones and agreements will provide for east -west circulation corridor, All road construction will be to bounty standards and the ro;a.ds dedicated to the County. She discussed the drainage retention ponds. She said the applicants are `h Ming to form a CSA for a. drainage district, She wanted approval of the three rezone requests. She said, the applicants would agree to participate in the Area. Specific Plan and VIIR. She ` people pusing t p a n + e for solution, to drainage proble.msi Sbd said there have been a onew environmental issues identified since the applications went into hearings. She said the applicants have addressed the cumulative impacts regarding drainage and traffic. She said they are willing to form an assessment drainage district for 300+ acres, Commissioner Lambert asked if these requests were sent to the Board. could the Board send the items to the Chico Issues Committee? Staff said it would be unusual for a land issue to go to that committee. Bill Hauselt said he is one 'of the ownrzt and .has 94 acres. He said the three property owners have agreed with the conditional zoning agreement. He discussed the traffic problems. He said he talked to the Fire .Department on access availability and the Fire Department would liko the access from these parcel as soon as possible. Re said his application has been in the Planni tg Department since 19M He said when the appeal of the EIR was upheld at the Board it was. 3t7n''1'E . C0�7oTY FL�NN�NG GC?i�M��Sf`1" ,r, based on cumulative traffic problems End a,study was done. He did not think it was fair to hold up these projects any longer. He said thiky have done everything the County has asked for. He said there are no additional environmental problems since the appeal of a requirement for an EIR * ' make a decision was upheld, He asked that the ornmission isic today« He said the County approved Carriage Estates and Wildflower Subdivisions contiguous to his property with no provisions for fencing to protect his property. Ethel Liptrap said. she understands the need for the Specific Plan, but wanted 0. d(.--.i84on on her application 'today. She said she agreed to the conditional zoning agreement. Commissioner Lambert asked the 'status of the legal problem that was mentioned at the last meeting. M.M. Liptrap said anthe problem has been resolved and all the property owners are in agreement with the zoning d conditional zoning agreement. She said the drainage will be addressed at the time of the subdivision map. Chairman Forbeii, said all of the applicants are aware of the issues that have to be address before development can occur and the applicants have done everything the County has asked. Mrs. 13achman again stated that all three owners would be willing to form a CSA for drainage.. She said the CSA could also include Carriage Estates because there is a clause in their deed that says they will join a CSA Drainage District When one is formed. She said this same drainage disfAct could later be expanded to include the whole north Chico area. Staff said the Commission could require that the applicants participate the Specific Plan and EM for the Vorth Chico area prior to subdivision. Mrs, Bachman said the I'3elleves that some, of the applicants Want tot P 6cced With splitting their,, property as soon as possible. Staff was concerned that the responsibility for long term impacts of a Specific Plan are carried forward to rezoning. Staff said the Commission should consider a condition to insure that the property owners will participate in the Speci ific Plan and MR for the area. Chairman Forbes asked about enforcing the conditions on a conditionalioning agreement StAt said tho enforcement is to rezone the propertyi. Commissioner Lambert asked about the Dock Crdek kedamation District, Staff said the District 18 west of Highway 99 Mrs. ,Bachman -3ald the hock Creek k6clarnation District was formed, but ,no Ver 'funded. 171 Commissioner Lynch dlsvn-,�,�ed the designing of drainage retention ponds for these three parcels. 9 0 e Ma a auselik - proposed Legative I��elaratiozr1 with mitigation measure;s regarding ernrironmentad impact and Bezand from A-10 (Ar/)►*cultural - 10 acre parcels) to SR -I 1Suburban R.es dential -1 acre parcels) for proper't'y loc;:tpd on the west side of Highway 99, idontihed as AP 047-430-0303, °north of Chico, (File 89-24) (Continued open from January 11 19190) I'll a d' t y oaaiproposed Negativ eclwith mitigation measures � ivampact andrearding .eromenP_a from A-10 (Agricultural -10 acre parcels) to „ del e SR-I(Suburban Residential - 1 acre parcels) for property located on the east side of Highway 99, approximately 4,000 feet south of ]Keefer Road, identified as AP 047-440-0121 Chico.

Staff submitted at me;tx>lo dated February 14, 1990 clarifying time lines by adding language to Conditions 2a, 2f, 21, and 2m Commissioner O trowska asked staff if they viere referring to the Staff Finding or the Agreement? Staff said the Agreement: The hearing on all three items was opened to the public: Jill Bachman said that the Rauselt property is.,in litigation in court and she would like a 60 day continuance on the Hauselt application. She requested the Commission to take action on the Levy and ..iptrap applications separately so the recommendation could be sent forward to, the Board of Supervisors and not ,held up by the Hauselt litigation Staff, said that these agreements are closely tied because of the limits d access and the number of parcels that could be developed on the total of the t1free propertie9i Staff is reluctant to recommend that `the Commiiision forward any recommendation until the Commission can respond to the whole 304+ acres.

Staff said if the Commission is placed in a position of making a determination on the applications toady, staff's recommendation would be for denial. Staff said the Commission could not isolate any one of the properties from the other in regards, to coy -c r ,s that were raised' environmentally, Staff said because of the difficulty in coming to a raasopial.le agreement on where an access would be on Highway 9 the most northerly P P.e ro r, aiau'Rhe concerns of Caltrans and the traffic study, �7 itis clear only one access should be allowed onto Highway 99. Staff said this limits the other properties. Mrs. Bachman said the conditions definitely tie all three properties together and the ,rezoning would not change this She wanted the Levy, and I..iptrap application: to go forward and not be held up by the Hauselt applicant. Sine said that approving the zoning would not allow Levy or L iptrap to proceed with development that was contrary to the conditions. She said the applicants Want to be able to start planning future development. Commissioner Lambert noted that. in the memo from the Fire Chief, he stated that there must be ingress and egress for all three properties to 'Highway 99 and there must be an :access route connecting Highway 99 to Garnet Lane. Staff said they talked to the Fire Departmont for clarification and the department said if the southerly property develops first, the Fire Department would :Fant to see then first vestiges of the through street being developed at 'least as an all weather road in order to give access to the outherly parcel through the Hauselt northerly property. Staff said at this time, the Hauselt :property is the key to this proposal. Staff said that the comparison condA( ons provided show that if the Commission sends any one forward without the �i#her, they are talking about conditions dependent upon a future action and they do not know what that action is going to be. If this was done the Comrn fission would be imposing a condition upon someone that might not be able to be achieved: Commissioner Lynch said the Commission harts not seen any designs of what the sub:;equent subdivision will be Staff was concerned with access and circulation and did not want to send one or two of the; three projects forward. Commissioner Lynch asked if circulation for the three properties was going to be interlocked other than the access onto Highway 99 Staff ;said the three parcel owners have to work together in order tO develop their property.

Mrs; Bachman said there are letters in the files of Levy and Laptrap to waive the CEQA time lines and staff acknowledged that this is correct. She said she would like the Levy iwd Liptrap hearings sent forward to the Board or continued with the I-lauselt hearing. She did not want the. projects denied. Commissioner Matson asked Mrs. Bachman if the nature of the litigation would change the agreements?

Pi^cemeal development (4 at a time) in this. area with no chance. for hydrant or water requirements is a problem:" ANALYSISr This projectis a request to rezone 68.19 acres located ori the east side of State Highway 99, north of Chico, from A-10 to SR -1. This project is one of three separate, but adjacent, applications requesting SR -1 zoning in this area. All three properties are currently orchards and front on State Highway, 99, This Parcel also fronts on Garner Lane. This frontage is compromised dup to existing development on small neighboring parcels and the proximity of the bridge across Keefer Slough: The ex staig A-10 zoning was adopted in 1981 as part of the Chico Airport trivirons Rezone. The A-10 zoning was chosen due -to concerns regarding flooding of the properties by Keefer Slough, downstreamdrainage, and traffic hazards on Highway 99. '!'%-e Initial Study for the first project, (Hauselt) determined that these potential impacts still exist and an EL'S was requited.Mr. Plauselt .appealed to the Board of Supervisors, Mr. Hauselt and his engineer proposed methods to avoid further impacts on flooding and drainage (see attached list of conditions), and the three applicants commissioners a i;affic study of the area that identified potential iMPacts and developed requirements for any further development (see attached Tmffic Study). CalTrans and the Department of Public Works corioarred and suggested specific constitttior standards. The Board of Supervisors then do.termined that Any signiticant impacts can be mitigated by proper design of :subsequent subdivisions; The design features will be required by conditional zoning. 2 BUTTE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF FINDINGS - January 2, 1990 f.mpacts related to flooding a.,a drainage 'will be minimized by meeting the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FE1V, ) requirements for development in flood-prone areas and by the use of on-site retention ponds for storm drainage waters. This will keep storm water on site until Keefer Slough flows drop to a point that the slough can accommodate runoff from the site. Minimizing traffic impacts will require the co-operation of all three of the applicants. The Traffic Study _and CalTrans have determined that only one new public road approach can safely be constructed along the three property frontages. This road can only be located at the southerly boundary of the Hauselt property. It will be necessary for the three property owners to deed each other road rights-of-way that will connect through to Garner Lane along the Liptrap frontage. Any roads will have to be built to county standards for gaintenance and offered for dedication to the County, Additionally, the Butte County Subdivision Ordinance will require the connection between Highway 99 and Garner Innbe plily n ancted and offered for dedication before morethan twenty lots are but on Y F,gle cul-de-sac. Thud, 20 lots could' be created on a cul-de-sac accessing Highway 99 and 20 lots could be created On a similar cul-de-sar, off of Garner Lane; Any additional development will require the two cul-de-sacs to be connected'. - '.Phis should be restated as a condition in order to make it clear to any subsequent owner or developer that the through circulation: is necessaiy, and so` " that no exception to the Subdivision Ordinance is granted. While }his property does have frontage on Highway 99, its pr mAmity to the fire' station and the curve in the highway make development of a road approach in this area inappropriate. The frontage on Garner Lane should not be developed With a road approach because of limited sight distance due to the bridge and exising development. Accordingly, further subdivision of this property will have to access area streets via neighboringproperties`, This will be coordinated with other development tcs the north and south as indicated in the attached list of zoning conditions. This will encourage southbound traffic from the developed property to flow toward Garner Lane and to access Highway p9 at arcels the an existing inu GaarnWork ole t r tf fi of sieasements 'Conditional ad a reementt loci all three P P agreements between the owm: rs that will ensure the ability to dtwelop all three: properties in a logical manner.
