Analysis Back-ground On August 5, 2008, the Community Development Department approved Minor Subdivision Application No. PA-0700593 to subdivide two lots totaling 425.64 acres into eight parcels and a designated remainder parcel, with each parcel containing a minimum of forty acres. The Parcel Map was recorded on December 30, 2008, On November 17, 2010, all of the parcels were sold to the present owner, Cortopassi Farms, Inc. On April 29, 2011, the new owner applied for this Reversion to Acreage application because Conditions of Approval 1.e. of the prior subdivision map application required a riparian habitat buffer that would limit his ability to farm the property. No improvements or dedications were required for the original subdivision. General Plan/Zonin The site is designated AIG (General Agriculture) and zoned AG-40 (General Agriculture-40 acre minimum). These designations will not change as a result of the reversion to acreage. Policy Consideration In order for the Board of Supervisors to approve the Reversion to Acreage application, it is mandatory that the first of the following four findings be made in the affirmative and that at least one of the remaining three findings be made in the affirmative pursuant to Development Title Section 9-869.4. Findinq No. 1 Dedications or offers of dedication to be vacated or abandoned by the reversion to acreage are unnecessary for present or prospective public purposes, based upon the policies and designations in the General Plan. • This finding can be made because there were no dedications or offers of dedications required from the original Minor Subdivision application and therefore no vacated or abandoned dedications or offers of dedication are necessary by this reversion to acreage. Finding No. 2 Consent. All owners of an interest in the real property within the subdivision have consented to reversion. • This finding can be made because all of the owners of interest of the subdivision consent to the reversion and submitted the application for a Reversion To Acreage. Finding No. 3 Lack of Improvements: None of the improvements required to be made have been made within two (2) years from the date the final or parcel map was filed for record, or within the time allowed by agreement for completion of the improvements, whichever is later. • This finding can be made because no improvements were made as none were required for the subdivision.
