Analysis Background On June 5, 1997, the Planning Commission heard a General Plan Map Amendment and Zoning Reclassification proposal to change the General Plan and Zoning designations of 46 acres from General Agriculture (A/G) and AG-40 to Limited Industrial (I/L) and Industrial-Warehouse (I-W) respectively. After hearing the matter, the Planning Commission voted to recommend that the Board of Supervisors only approve the General Plan Amendment and rezoning for 9.76 acres at the northeast corner of the site instead of 46 acres as requested. The Board considered the matter on August 12, 1997, and approved a Motion of Intent to approve the General Plan Amendment and Zone Reclassification for the 9.76 acres at the southwest corner of Manthey Road and Klo Road. At the Community Development Department, an error was made and the entire 46 acres was input into the Sierra system as I/L and I-W. Based on the information in the Sierra system, the 34.74-acre property was bought as industrial property and was later discovered to be agricultural. TYe Board of Supervisors issued Board Order B-01-1050, which directed the Community Development Department to "process a General Plan Amendment and Rezoning for property owner by Central Valley Construction, Inc....and determine the appropriate General Plan classification and the amount of land that should be rezoned, if any." Loss of Agricultural Land In the Initial Study performed for the General Plan Map Amendment and Zone Reclassification, the Community Development Depa tment identified the potential loss of agricultural land resulting from the change from an agricultural designation to an industrial designation as a significant cumulative impact. In order to mitigate for the impact of the potential loss of agricultural land, the owner will be required to pay the American Farmland Trust an appropriate mitigation fee at the time the property is developed. POLICY CONSIDERATIONS Limited Industrial Locational Criteria (Volume I pp. IV-31, 32) The General Plan Industrial Development Chapter contains the following locational criteria for Limited Industrial areas: 1) Limited Industrial Areas shall be located on a Minor Arterial or higher classification roadway. Squires Road, which runs along the southern portion of the property, is classified as a future Minor Arterial roadway. 2) Limited Industrial areas sha l be located in areas served by, or planned to be served by, a wastewater treatment plant, a water system, and a drainage system, all of which shall be public, unless only one parcel is involved. A limited number of areas may be zoned for development on septic tanks. The uses in these areas shall nct individually or collectively generate wastewater whose volume or quality requires a sewage treatment plant. These areas shall: a) not be served by or be expected to be served by a sewage treatment plant during the planning period This site is not expected to be served by a sewage treatment plant during the planning period.
