Potentially Less Than Less Than Analyzed Significant Significant with Significant No In The 9 Mitigation 9 Impact Incorporated Impact Impact Prior EIR XI. LAND USE AND PLANNING. Would the project: a) Physically divide an established community? ❑ ❑ ❑ ® ❑ b) Cause a significant environmental impact due to a conflict with any land use plan,policy,or regulation adopted for the ❑ ❑ ® ❑ ❑ purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect? Impact Discussion: a,b) This project has two components.The first is a General Plan designation change from I/T(Truck Terminal)to A/G (General Agriculture).The second is a Conditional Use Permit Application for an agricultural processing facility(Use Type: Industry-Agricultural) to include the construction of a 96,959 square foot two-story building. The project proposes two 8-hour shifts, with one shift being seasonal.The applicant states the first shift will employ 3 people, year-round.The applicant states the second shift will be a seasonal shift during harvest and employ 75 people.The applicant states that approximately 75%or the proposed building will be utilized for the fruit processing,while 25% will be rented to a third party for storage of produce containers.There is an existing agricultural processing facility on an adjacent parcel to the west that will likely rent this space,however,that use is separate to this new proposed use. The project site is surrounded by industrial and agricultural with scattered residences. The project will not physically divide an established community and is consistent with surrounding land uses. The current General Plan designation is IFF,and the Industry-Agricultural use type is not consistent with the parcel's current General Plan designation. If the General Plan designation is changed to A/G as proposed, then the development project will be consistent with the County's General Plan.The proposed project is an agricultural use and will have a less than significant impact to surrounding parcels. The project will not create premature development pressure on surrounding agricultural lands to convert land from agricultural uses to non-agricultural uses because it is surrounded by various types of urban development including industrial and residential.Therefore, this project is not growth-inducing. The proposed project will not conflict with any existing or planned uses or set a significant land use precedent.The proposed project is not in conflict with any Master Plans, Specific Plans, or Special Purpose Plans, or any other applicable plan adopted by the County. As a result,the project's impacts to land use and planning considerations are anticipated to be less than significant. 17 Planning Commission Staff Report, PA-2100295 (GP, SA) 20 Environmental Review
