Phone: (209)235-0574 Email: boyd@sjcog.org <br /> Date: September 30,2026 <br /> Local Jurisdiction Project Title: PA-2600248(W) <br /> Assessor Parcel Number(s): 097-190-23 <br /> Local Jurisdiction Project Number: PA-2600248(W) <br /> Total Acres to be converted from Open Space Use: Unknown <br /> Habitat Types to be Disturbed: Urban Habitat Land <br /> Species Impact Findings: Findings to be determined by SJMSCP biologist. <br /> Dear Ms. Leal: <br /> SJCOG, Inc. has reviewed the project application for PA-2600248(W). This project consists of a Waiver application to reduce the <br /> setback for the northem property line along West Swain in the R-L zone from 20 feet to 15 feet. This is to facilitate the construction of an <br /> attached Accessory Dwelling Unit. Access to this site is provided by the existing driveway connected to North Alexandra Place,a county- <br /> maintained road. The parcel is served by the Lincoln Village Municipal District for water, sewer, and storm drainage. The project site is <br /> located on the southeast comer of West Swain Road and North Alexandria Place,Stockton(APN/Address: 097-190-23/2122 W Swain <br /> Road,Stockton). <br /> San Joaquin County is a signatory to San Joaquin County Multi-Species Habitat Conservation and Open Space Plan <br /> (SJMSCP). Participation in the SJMSCP satisfies requirements of both the state and federal endangered species acts, <br /> and ensures that the impacts are mitigated below a level of significance in compliance with the California Environmental <br /> Quality Act (CEQA). The LOCAL JURISDICTION retains responsibility for ensuring that the appropriate Incidental Take <br /> Minimization Measure are properly implemented and monitored and that appropriate fees are paid in compliance with the <br /> SJMSCP. Although participation in the SJMSCP is voluntary, Local Jurisdiction/Lead Agencies should be aware that if <br /> project applicants choose against participating in the SJMSCP, they will be required to provide alternative mitigation in an <br /> amount and kind equal to that provided in the SJMSCP. <br /> This project is not subject to participate at this time due to structure and ground disturbance already <br /> existing. Any future structures that require ground disturbance on this or subsequent divided parcels will be <br /> subject to participate in the SJMSCP and should be resubmitted to this agency. <br /> It should be noted that if this project has any potential impacts to waters of the United States[pursuant to Section 404 Clean Water Act],it would require <br /> the project to seek voluntary coverage through the unmapped process under the SJMSCP which could take up to 90 days. It may be prudent to obtain a <br /> preliminary wetlands map from a qualified consultant.If waters of the United States are confirmed on the project site,the Corps and the Regional Water <br /> Quality Control Board(RWQCB)would have regulatory authority over those mapped areas[pursuant to Section 404 and 401 of the Clean Water Act <br /> respectively]and permits would be required from each of these resource agencies prior to grading the project site. <br /> If you have any questions, please call (209) 235-0574. <br />
