Dear Mr. Bearquiver:
On behalf of the Butte County Airport Land Use Commission, I .have reviewed the Draft a
Environmental Assessment prepared for the Enterprise Rancheria. The following comments pertain
solely to the compatibility of the project with the adopted Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan
(ALUCP) for the Oroville Airport which was adopted on December 20, 2000.
The proposed. development by the Enterprise Rancheria is located .within four different
Compatibility. Zones; these are A, B-1, B-2, and C (refer to attached map). Each of these zones has .
limitations on residential densities and development intensities.based on noise, safety, overflight,
and proximity to airport facilities (refer to attached table). In referring to the table,'you can see that
no dwellings are allowed in Zone A. Zone B-1 limits residential density to one dwelling unit per
10 acres. Zone B-2. limits residential density to one dwelling unit per 5 acres. ZoneC has a two-
tiered density requirement of either one dwelling unit per 5 acres or > 4 dwelling units per acre. The '
proposed parcel layout in the draft environmental document is not compatible with any of the
mentioned compatibility zones. : f
In conclusion, the project cannot be found consistent with the ALUCP as proposed unless the local
jurisdiction (Butte County) adopts override findings. To develop the subject project site with 43
dwelling units and maintain compatibility with the ALUCP, only one development scenario would
work. This scenario could be achieved by clustering_ all proposed units within Zone C; the density
must also be at least 4 dwelling units per acre.
Thank you for the opportunity to review your project: Feel free to call me, or staff, should you need
any additional information or have questions.- You can reach me at (530)342-4300 or staff at -538-
6571.
Sincerely j ours,
Norm Rolene,
ALUC Chairman
