PC: 10-15-92 <br /> MS-92-133 <br /> The proposed Parcel 3 contains an existing cattle feed lot, a storm retention pond, a larger pond <br /> for the collection of animal waste, and a pole barn. Public Health Services staff have indicated <br /> that the feed lot has been approved by their office and has passed its most recent inspection. <br /> The Manure Waste Management Plan that was required by Public Health Services to determine <br /> if the feed lot operation could be accommodated on a 46-acre parcel has been approved by both <br /> Public Health Services and the Regional Water Quality Control Board. For these reasons, the <br /> continued operation of the facility and its placement on a 46-acre parcel are not expected to result <br /> in any significant land use conflicts with surrounding land uses. For additional discussion, see <br /> 'Land Use Compatibility' under 'Neighborhood Opposition.' <br /> Access: <br /> The parcel currently has frontage on Roberts Road and Rollerson Road. According to the <br /> Department of Public Works, the latter is maintained by the County nearly to its end, one-half mile <br /> east of Roberts Road. Following subdivision, the resultant parcels would have the following <br /> frontage: Parcels 1 and 2 to have frontage on Roberts Road, Parcel 3 to have frontage on <br /> Rollerson Road, and the designated remainder to have frontage on both the public roads. <br /> Williamson Act: <br /> The subject parcel is under Williamson Act Contract and is, therefore, subject to the 10-acre <br /> minimum parcel size requirement of Planning Title Section 9-2351f al. The recommended <br /> Conditions of Approval include the requirement that the homesite parcel contain 10 acres. The <br /> owner is aware of the Planning Title's requirements and has submitted a tentative parcel map that <br /> is consistent with this requirement. <br /> Neighborhood Opposition: <br /> The seven property owners who submitted letters in response to the application referral were <br /> generally opposed to the project on the grounds that it represented fragmentation of agricultural <br /> land. More specifically, the opposition was based on the proposal's inconsistency with the AG-40 <br /> zone's minimum parcel size, the fact that parcels of less than 40 acres in the Delta are not <br /> agriculturally viable, and that additional houses would represent a land use conflict with the area's <br /> existing agricultural land uses. <br /> Minimum Parcel Size: <br /> The minimum parcel size in the AG-40 zone is 40 acres, and both the designated <br /> remainder and Parcel 3 conform with that requirement. The size of Parcels 1 and 2, <br /> containing 30 and 10 acres respectively, reflect the fact that the application is composed <br /> of the subdivision of the property into 40-acre parcels and the further subdivision of one <br /> of those parcels to create a 10-acre homesite parcel. The 30-acre parcel represents the <br /> remainder of the 40-acre parcel after the 10-acre parcel is subdivided. <br /> -9- <br />
