Subject: PRIED request on APN 021-132-039
James,
From our conversation today, I understand that the predevelopment request for APN 021-132-030 outside Gridley
for Stevens and Younie was submitted with incorrect information regarding the proposed General Plan
Designation.
The maps were submitted with a note that the proposed General Plan is MDR, medium density residential.
In actuality, the request should have been to leave the existing AR General Plan designation.
This would allow for one-acre lots given a minimum lot size in the AR General Plan designation of one acre.
Please confirm or correct my understanding so that we can continue processing the predevelopment application.
Thank you and have a nice weekend.

If staff receives anadditional comments from outside agencies, the will be sent out b email.
Y g � Y Y
The following is a brief summary of the comments discussed at the meeting:
i
Planning—
1. Discussed issues of creating 1-acre lots adjacent to the city of Gridley. Is not consistent with
possible future urban expansion by the city.
2. The option of using the Flexible Lot Provision section (BCC 24-82) was discussed. Upon
further review of BCC 24-82, the Flexible Lot option is not possible based on the parcel
being in an Urban Area and that a minimum of 25 lots are required for community septic
systems and community wells.
3. There is a possibility of applying for a PUD (Planned Unit Development) Rezone. It gives
you the flexibility of smaller lot (clustering). I have enclosed the PUD section of the zoning
code. Please review and contact me if you have any questions. If this method is chosen, the
county would require comments from the City of Gridley with regard to the proposed lot
layout/design of the project.
4. Not discussed at the meeting; but it will help in processing the project, if a biological study,
wetlands survey and an archeological report be prepared and submitted with the application.
Other studies may be required during project review.
Public Works—
1. A preliminary drainage plan will need to be submitted as part of the application. Discussed
the requirement of not increasing peak-storm runoff through detention or retention. Issue of
sustained flows.
2. Discussed that different road improvement standards for City Street (Little Avenue) versus
County Street (Little Avenue and Dewsnup Avenue) along parcel frontage. A permanent
road division is required for roads and drainage maintenance.
3. Please review attached draft conditions of approval. Note that draft conditions submitted are
based on preliminary review and based on plans submitted for the Pre-Development
Meeting. The project will be re-evaluated at time of proj--ct application submittal.
Environmental Health—
1. Parcels will need to show compliance with Appencix VII, wet season groundwater
monitoring is necessary. This will be the case whether they go with individual septic
systems or a community sewage system concept.
2. A community sewage system will.require compliance with Regional Water Quality Control
Board requirements.
3. Recommend beginning their pre-application right away- in order to use the coming wet
season.
4. Testing for arsenic in at least one test well may be necessary in order to prove potable water
availability in this area. Again this will be necessary whether individual wells. or a
community system is proposed.
Page 2 of 3
-'fi
5. Community well would require additional construction standards and monitoring.
California Department of Forestry—
1. Please review attached draft conditions of approval. Note that draft conditions submitted are
based on preliminary review and based on plans submitted for the Pre-Development
Meeting. The project will be re-evaluated at time of project application submittal.
Agricultural Commissioner—
1. No concerns. Parcel not currently in production.
Note that these issues are not exhaustive. During the processing of the actual application, other
issues may arise that could place significant conditions on your project. If you have any questions,
please do not hesitate to call meat 530-538-7376, or email atmmichelena@buttecounty.net.

Article III. Zone Districts*
24-210 PUD (Planned Unit Development) Zone.
(a) Purpose. The purpose of the Planned Unit Development(PUD)Zone is to allow diversification
in the relationship of various uses, buildings, structures, lot sizes and open spaces, to encourage
and take advantage of opportunities for more integrated, flexible and superior design than is
available through the application of conventional regulation which anticipates individual lot
development. It is the intent of this zone to provide a flexible means to implement the goals,
policies and programs of the Butte County general plan while ensuring the provision of adequate
standards to protect the public health, safety and general welfare. It is also the purpose of this
zone to encourage innovative, high-quality design, efficient use of land and modern site planning
for residential, agriculture, commercial and industrial purposes.
(b)Adoption and use limitations. A planned unit development(PUD)zone shall be established by
the adoption of an ordinance by the board of supervisors rezoning the property to the Planned
Unit Development Zone and adopted by reference a land use and development plan, the
provisions of which, together with any other provisions which in the opinion of the board of
supervisors are necessary and included in the ordinance, shall constitute the regulations for the
use, improvement and maintenance of the property within the boundaries of the zone. Except as
hereinafter provided, no use, building, structure or parcel may be made, created or otherwise
altered except as it complies with the ordinance adopted pursuant to this chapter.
(c) Land use density area. The residential land use density of any planned unit development zone
shall not exceed that allowed by the Butte County general plan designation for the proposed site.
(d) Preapplication conference. Before filing any application for planned unit development zoning,
the prospective applicant is encouraged to submit to the planning division preliminary plans,
sketches and basic site information for consideration and advice as to the relationship of the
proposed development to the applicable general and specific plans and policies. Other
departments and agencies with responsibilities for review, comment or other regulation of the
proposed development may participate at the discretion of the director of development services,
and with the participation of appropriate responsible agencies, pursuant to section 210800.3 of
the Public Resources Code and section 15066 of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) Guidelines.
(e) Development criteria. In addition to the criteria listed on the attached sheet[of Ordinance No.
3176], the following items are required:
(1) Each PUD shall, as a minimum, provide off-street parking in accordance with chapter 24, off-
street parking. Additional parking equal to fifty (50) percent of the required spaces shall be
provided unless modified by the director of development services or planning commission.
(2) In residential PUDs plans shall provide that not less than twenty-five (25) percent of the
residential portion of the project shall be utilized for purposes other than residential dwellings and
paved areas for vehicular uses. No less than forty-five (45) percent of such twenty-five (25)
percent shall be utilized for recreation or park areas available for use by all residents. The same
criteria for open space area shall apply to agricultural PUDs which may or may not include
residential uses.
(3) Each industrial or commercial PUD shall provide that not less than ten (10) percent of the
project shall be developed as landscaped areas.
(4) Each PUD shall obtain tentative clearance from the Butte County health division, division of
environmental health, for sewage disposal and water supply for the project at the density
proposed. Soil tests, drilling of test wells or geologic reports are among the steps that may be
required to provide evidence of sewage disposal capability and water availability for domestic
use. Minimum lot areas for septic systems must comply with section 20-120.1 of the Butte County
subdivision ordinance and appendix VII of the improvement standards for subdivisions.
(f)Applying for a rezone to PUD. The planned unit development is intended to allow
diversification in the relationship of various uses, buildings, structures, lot sizes and open spaces
while ensuring substantial compliance with the general plan and the intent of the County Code in
requiring adequate standards necessary to satisfy the requirements of public health, safety and

Re: Request for Comments on development of Assessor Parcel No 021-
132-039; Denise Young and Denny Stevens.
\ Dear Mr. Michelena:
The City of Gridley has received the above-noted request for comments on
City Qfa rezone application to change the above-noted County land use designation for
this parcel from A-5 to AR-1. It is our understanding that this change would allow
development of up to 14 parcels adjacent to the City of Gridley.
Gridley
As background, City staff has met with the applicants on several occasions
to discuss annexation of this property. The applicants were informed of our
685 Kentucky Street current General Plan Update and Sphere of Influence Amendment process that
Gridley, CA 95948 projects growth to occur north of the current City limits to South Avenue. The
City is concentrating efforts on completing their General Plan Update and is not
entertaining additional Sphere Amendments at this time. However, depending on
growth pressure and development rates, the City may look at including this
property at a future date. We anticipate completion of our current Sphere
Amendment within 18 months.
While there may be a market for this type of development(1 acre lots),
urban development should occur within City limits. Allowing this type of
development seems to be poor planning that will have long term consequences
contrary to both our goals of achieving smart growth and preserving agricultural
land.
When additional information is submitted by the applicant, we would
appreciate the opportunity to review and comment. If you would like to discuss
this matter further, please feel free to call me at(530) 846-3631.

Dear Mr. Michelena,
Re: Denise Younie and Mark Stevens development PRE07-0007
The following are Gridley Unified School District comments relative to development
PRE07-0007.
The following issue should be addressed:
1. Bus pull out for student pick ups: As the community of Gridley continues to grow
the-School District will b&fesponsible to pick up and transport more and more
•students. Bus pull outs for loading and unloading make for a safer environment.
2. There is no mitigation for parking space that is advantageous to a community. The
Gridley Unified School District has been working with the City of Gridley to
develop joint use spaces.
3. There is no mention of mitigation for the short fall between actual cost of housing
students and the amount the school district can charge for developer fees. It would
be in the best interest of the county to encourage, strongly encourage developer to
reach an agreement with the school district for full funding for the impact of
potential new students.
Thank you,

TO: Mark Michelen,ate, Senior Planner, Butte County Planning Division
FROM: Steve Betts, Principal Planner
SUBJECT: PRED 07-0007—Denise Younie &Denny Stevens
DATE: August 8, 2007
The affected parcel is located within the boundaries of the following local agencies (TRA 075-
014):
• Gridley-Biggs Cemetery District
• Butte County Mosquito &Vector Control District
• Gridley Union Elementary School District
• Gridley Unified School District
• Butte Community College District

• Butte County Resource Conservation District
• Butte Water District
• Reclamation District 833
Thank you for the opportunity to review the above referenced project. While LAFCO has no
specific land use jurisdiction over this project located in the unincorporated area of the County,
we do have concerns regarding the nature of the development proposal. LAFCO has a
fundamental responsibility pursuant to California Government Code Section 56000 to
discourage urban sprawl, preserve open space and prime agricultural lands, ensure the efficient
delivery of governmental services, and encourage the orderly formation of local agencies. With
this legislative charge,please consider the following comments at this preliminary stage in the
project review.
1. The proposed project encompasses 16± acres of agricultural lands on the south
periphery of the City of Gridley, outside of but adjacent to the City of Gridley city limits
and the City of Gridley's Sphere of Influence. These lands are currently zoned for
agricultural uses and are intended for agricultural uses and rural residential
development. This project would alter the land use and place the project in direct
conflict with surrounding agriculturally zoned lands. This type of development appears
Mark Michelena
August 8,2007
Page 2 of 3
to be inconsistent with the LAFCO responsibility to discourage urban sprawl and
preserve agricultural lands. The following LAFCO Policies apply to the proposal:
2.3.1 Urban Development.
LAFCO will encourage proposals that result in urban development to include
annexation to a city wherever reasonably possible, and discourage proposals for
urban development without annexation to a city.
2.6 Compact Urban Form and Infill Development Encouraged.
When reviewing proposals that result in urban development, LAFCO will
consider whether the proposed development is timely, compact in form and
contiguous to existing urbanized areas. LAFCO will favor development of
vacant or under-utilized parcels already within a city or other urbanized area
prior to annexation of new territory. However, the Butte LAFCO recognizes that
under certain circumstances the redevelopment of underutilized land and infill
parcels are subject to the desires of the property owners necessitating the
annexation of vacant lands on the periphery of the city boundaries.
2.7 Adequate Services.
LAFCO will consider the ability of an agency to deliver adequate, reliable and
sustainable services, and will not approve a proposal that has significant
potential to diminish the level of service in the agency's current jurisdiction.
The agency must provide satisfactory documentation of capacity to provide
service within a reasonable amount of time.
For this proposal, the site should be annexed into the City of Gridley in order to provide
the project site with municipal services. Please note that the three parcels to the north of
property should be included in any annexation proposal to prevent piece-meal
annexation and to ensure orderly boundaries. Shou13 the proposal go forward without
annexation, LAFCO may have a difficult time making the affirmative findings to
approve any action(such as annexation to a special district or creation of a new special
district) that would be required for the proposal.
The City of Gridley is currently in the process of updating their General Plan, along
with a Sphere of Influence update. The applicant and the County should consult with
the City of Gridley to determine the City's interest in including this parcel in the SOI
update and possible annexation into the City.
2. If urban type services(e.g. street lighting, landscaping, drainage, fire protection, etc.)
for the new development are proposed to be provided through annexation to an existing
local agency or by a formation of a new local agency such as a county service area
Mark Michelena
August 8,2007 .
Page 3 of 3
(CSA) or a community service district(CSD), LAFCO as the authorizing agency,
should be consulted early to allow for a meaningful analysis of the issue prior to County
consideration of the development application. This early coordination will allow for the
anticipated LAFCO action to be fully integrated into the project review process and
should result in the proposal being:
A. Fully described in the project description; and
B. Fully addressed in the appropriate environmental documents; and
C. Circulated to LAFCO for review as an agency with an approval role; and
D. Fully integrated into the public hearing process.
The absence of this early coordination and failure to address the LAFCO related issues
as described will require additional environmental review and related studies at such
time an annexation/formation is requested resulting in unnecessary costs and delays. It
should be understood that such a request would be reviewed based on state law and
local LAFCO policies which are clearly directed at maximizing service efficiencies,
minimizing the creation of new governmental entities, limiting urban sprawl and
directing new development to areas with existing urban service providers.
3. The project site is located in an area that lacks adequate storm water drainage facilities
and is within the boundaries of Reclamation District 833. RD 833 should be consulted
early to ensure that the proposal would not cause any increase in storm water drainage
into RD 833 facilities,which are already operating at full capacity during winter storm
events.
4. The proposal could have an impact to agricultural uses on the adjoining parcels. Will
the project be designed to incorporate a 300-foot building setback, consistent with
County policies?
These comments are preliminary based on the general project descriptions provided. LAFCO
will review the project in greater detail during the CEQA review process. If you have any
questions please contact me at your convenience.

24-82 Flexible lot size provision- Page 1 of 5
Chapter 24 ZONING*
Article III. Zone Districts*
24-82 Flexible lot size provisions.
(a) Purpose and intent. The purpose and intent of the flexible lot size provisions contained in this
section is to increase the retention of natural resources, open space, and wildlife habitat, avoid
hazardous areas, and further implement the goals and policies of the Butte County General Plan.
Following are specific goals of the flexible lot size provisions:
(1) Provide an incentive to create quality residential developments, particularly where special
conditions exist that prevent the attainment of the maximum permitted density of a property that
could otherwise be attained through conventional subdivision desicn;
(2) Require the avoidance of hazardous areas (e.g., one hundred (1 00)year flood zones) and
preservation of environmentally sensitive areas (e.g., wetlands and special-status species
habitat), productive agricultural and timber lands, and important cultural and scenic resources;
(3) Facilitate innovative development concepts that achieve greater consistency with the Butte
County General Plan;
(4) Provide permanent open space for a variety of natural resource purposes;
(5) Preclude additional development that may conflict with neighbo.-hood quality of life;
(6) Provide increased open space which may include active and passive recreation features that
reduce demand for public park land;
(7) Reduce infrastructure requirements by reducing the length of streets and water and sewer
lines and by potentially reducing street width requirements.
(b)Applicability. The provisions contained in this section are applicable, as described in this
section:
(1) Processing requirements. Allowed by right in all residential zoning districts that allow flexible
lot size provisions, as specified in this section. A conditional use permit, planned unit
development(PUD), or other rezoning application is not required;
(2)Applicable parcel size. Parcels that could potentially be subdivided based on the minimum lot
size specified in the applicable zoning district;
(3) Land divisions. This process is applicable to all subdivisions, parcel maps and parcel map
waivers regardless of the number of lots proposed;
(4) Optional use. Use of the flexible lot size provisions is optional. Persons wishing to subdivide
and develop land may utilize this section or may proceed under other existing County Code
requirements without use of these provisions;
(5) Reference to flexible lot size provisions. Residential development applications submitted
pursuant to this section shall be clearly identified as being so-designed on the tentative map;
(6) Limitation on location. The use of the flexible lot size provisions shall not be applicable in
urban areas designated in the Improvements Standards for Subdivsions, Parcel Maps and Site
Improvements for Chapter 20 of the Butte County Code or within any adopted airport
Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
(c)Application requirements. The following processing procedures apply to the flexible lot size
provisions. These procedures must be followed once a decision has been made to utilize the
flexible lot size provisions. Subsequent to completion of the steps described in this subsection, a
formal application filed pursuant to the flexible lot size provisions shall be processed and acted
upon in accordance with standard provisions of the County Code governing tentative map and
waiver applications, as specified in subsection (d) of this section.
(1) Preliminary consultation. It is recommended that applicants proposing to utilize the flexible lot
size provisions meet with development services staff prior to making an application. Once the
decision has been made to proceed, the applicant must submit information specified in
subsection (c)(2) of this section in order to begin the pre-development review process required in
subsection (c)(3) of this section.
(2) Supplementary application materials. The following materials sl-all be submitted:
a. Opportunities and constraints mapping. At a minimum, this mapping shall illustrate land not
suitable for development, as described in subsection (g)(1) of this section.
b. Conceptual development plan. The conceptual development plan shall identify building

Re: Request for Comments on development of Assessor Parcel No 021-
132-039; Denise Young and Denny Stevens.
Dear Mr. Michelena:
The City of Gridley has received the above-noted request for comments on
City a rezone application to change the above-noted County land use designation for
f this parcel from A-5 to AR-1. It is our understanding that this change would allow
development of up to 14 parcels adjacent to the City of Gridley.
Gridley
As background, City staff has met with the applicants on several occasions
to discuss annexation of this property. The applicants were informed of our
685 Kentucky Street current General Plan Update and Sphere of Influence Amendment process that
Gridley, CA 95948 projects growth to occur north of the current City limits to South Avenue. The
City is concentrating efforts on completing their General Plan Update and is not
entertaining additional Sphere Amendments at this time. However, depending on
growth pressure and development rates,the City may look at including this
property at a future date. We anticipate completion of our current Sphere
Amendment within 18 months.
While there may be a market for this type of development(1 acre lots),
urban development should occur within City limits. Allowing this type of
development seems to be poor planning that will have long term consequences
contrary to both our goals of achieving smart growth and preserving agricultural
land.
When additional information is submitted by the applicant, we would
appreciate the opportunity to review and comment. If you would like to discuss
this matter further,please feel free to call me at(530) 846-3631.

P'` MEMORANDUM
TO: Mark Michelena, Senior Planner, Butte County Planning Division
s
FROM: Steve Betts, Principal Planner
SUBJECT: PRED 07-0007—Denise Younie & Denny,Stevens
DATE: August 8, 2007
The affected parcel is located within the boundaries of the following local agencies (TRA 075-
014):
• Gridley-Biggs Cemetery District
• Butte County Mosquito &Vector Control District
• Gridley Union Elementary School District
• Gridley Unified School District
• Butte Community College District

• Reclamation District 833
Thank you for the opportunity to review the above referenced project. While LAFCO has no
specific land use jurisdiction over this project located in the unincorporated area of the County,
we do have concerns regarding the nature of the development proposal. LAFCO has a
fundamental responsibility pursuant to California Government Code Section 56000 to
discourage urban sprawl, preserve open space and prime agricultural lands, ensure the efficient
delivery of governmental services, and encourage the orderly formation of local agencies. With
this legislative charge,please consider the following comments at this preliminary stage in the
project review.
1. The proposed project encompasses 16f acres of agricultural lands on the south
periphery of the City of Gridley, outside of but adjacent to the City of Gridley city limits
and the City of Gridley's Sphere of Influence. These lands are currently zoned for
agricultural uses and are intended for agricultural uses and rural residential
development. This project would alter the land use and place the project in direct
conflict with surrounding agriculturally zoned lands. This type of development appears
i
Mark Michelena
August 8,2007
Page 2 of 3
to be inconsistent with the LAFCO responsibility to discourage urban sprawl and
preserve.agricultural lands. The following LAFCO Policies apply to the proposal:
2.3.1 Urban Development.
LAFCO will encourage proposals that result in urban development to include
annexation to a city wherever reasonably possible, and discourage proposals for
urban development without annexation to a city.
2.6 Compact Urban Form and Infill Development Encouraged.
When reviewing proposals that result in urban development, LAFCO will
consider whether the proposed development is timely, compact in form and
contiguous to existing urbanized areas. LAFCO will favor development of
vacant or under-utilized parcels already within a city or other urbanized area
prior to annexation of new territory. However, the Butte LAFCO recognizes that
under certain circumstances the redevelopment of underutilized land and infill
parcels are subject to the desires of the property owners necessitating the
annexation of vacant lands on the periphery of the city boundaries.
2.7 Adequate Services.
LAFCO will consider the ability of an agency to deliver adequate, reliable and
sustainable services, and will not approve a proposal that has significant
potential to diminish the level of service in the agency's current jurisdiction.
The agency must provide satisfactory documentation of capacity to provide
service within a reasonable amount of time.
For this proposal, the site should be annexed into the City of Gridley in order to provide
the project site with municipal services. Please note that the three parcels to the north of
property should be included in any annexation proposal to prevent piece-meal
annexation and to ensure orderly boundaries. Should the proposal go forward without
annexation, LAFCO may have a difficult time making the affirmative findings to
approve any action(such as annexation to a special district or creation of a new special
district)that would be required for the proposal.
The City of Gridley is currently in the process of updating their General Plan, along
with.a Sphere of Influence update. The applicant and the County should consult with
the City of Gridley to determine the City's interest in including this parcel in the SOI
update and possible annexation into the City.
2. If urban type services (e.g. street lighting, landscaping, drainage, fire protection, etc.)
for the new development are proposed to be provided through annexation to an existing
local agency or by a formation of a new local agency such as a county service area
Mark Michelena
August 8,2007
Page 3 of 3
(CSA) or a community service district(CSD), LAFCO as the authorizing agency,
should be consulted early to allow for a meaningful analysis of the issue prior to County
consideration of the development application. This early coordination will allow for the
anticipated LAFCO action to be fully integrated into the project review process and
should result in the proposal being:
A. Fully described in the project description; and
B. Fully addressed in the appropriate environmental documents; and
C. Circulated to LAFCO for review as an agency with an approval role; and
D. Fully integrated into the public hearing process.
The absence of this early coordination and failure to address the LAFCO related issues
as described will require additional environmental review and related studies at such
time an annexation/formation is requested resulting in unnecessary costs and delays. It
should be understood that such a request would be reviewed based on state law and
local LAFCO policies which are clearly directed at maximizing service efficiencies,
minimizing the creation of new governmental entities, limiting urban sprawl and
directing new development to areas with existing urban service providers.
3. The project site is located in an area that lacks adequate storm water drainage facilities
and is within the boundaries of Reclamation District 833. RD 833 should be consulted
early to ensure that the proposal would not cause any increase in storm water drainage
into RD 833 facilities, which are already operating at full capacity during winter storm
events.
4. The proposal could have an impact to agricultural uses on the adjoining parcels. Will
the project be designed to incorporate a 300-foot building setback, consistent with
County policies?
These comments are preliminary based on the general project descriptions provided. LAFCO
will review the project in greater detail during the CEQA review process. If you have any
questions please contact me at your convenience.

Dear Mr. Michelena,
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the Development/Land Use Application

16 single-family lots.
