DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION
This
proposal is for a rez6nin9 of 6.3 acres from 1. -SR (agr au]:ture-
Suburban
Residential) to C!-2 ( General Commercial) on jip# 44 -47 -LO.
The parcel
is located north of Chico along Hwy,..99E, just south of '
the Eaton
Rd. exit. liccess to the property is off Hack amore L`sne to
the east.
Zoning Surrounding the parcel ranges f rom A-40 (north of
Eaton) to
A -SR to R--1, & 2. The parcel in:,question is currently
undeveloped,
open grassland. Immediately to the east, along Hacka-
r',pre Lane
and also to tie south of the parcel, are single --family
r-esidendes.
The parcel to the north is undeveloped.
10b.
Commercial development on this parcel could potentially
result in substantial overcovering and compaction of
the soil: through the constrii6tion of buildings, parking
and access. Gener4l dommercial', and light industrial uses
are allowed " within the C--2 Zone.-,-.,,
1
2aUses
�; �14
permitted
p d under' C-�2 zoning could adversely affect:
_
local' air quality. Increased traffic associatdd with
this land use could also degrade air quality.
31c,f.
There will be a substantial increase in the rate and
amount of surface water runoff with commercial development.
Impermeable surfaces 11ill cause this. petroleum products
1
and chemicals could be washed into drainage systems by
�isurface
runoff.
6a,,b.
n substantial increase in noise levels may result :from
commercial uses and traffic generated by them. Currently,
Hwy 99E ,generated) 70 dB ( decibels) within 100 Feet.
Residential use, which is growing in the area, would )3e
adversely affected by an increase in noise levels,
Various 'commercial uses might create local nuisance with
o
external lighting.'
8a,h.
The Butte County General Plan designates this parcel and
surrounding area as Low Density residential, 1 -4 du/ac're.
The proposed rezone %ould require a general pl;n amendment.

Dear Mr. Nelsol n,
I would, like to appeal your request for an EIR on the six acre parcel
to the Board of Supervisors. The reasons being are as follows;
l.My-Act has done an EIR to the north of me-.
2, Commercial zoning is taking pl Ike to the north of this 'property.
3. Tho freeway is to the West of the property:
4, There i- a drainage canal to the south and also Dan Drake's
housing level opinent, has 61 solid board fencing on his side of,
the drainage canal: s
y. With a nursery operation the traffic floe isnot substantially
increased since most,nurseries relate to residential., areas and ,
do not generate a lot of outside traffic:
Thank you for your help in this project.
