Wastewater The wastewater requirement within a rural community permits a septic system. (General Pian, Volume 1, pg. IV-103) Water Supply If parcels are two acres or greater and no public water system exists, individual wells may be permitted. (General Plan, Volume I, pg. IV-105) Stormwater Drainage On-site drainage may be permitted if parcels are two acres or more. (General Plan, Volume I, p. IV-109) Bases for Zone Reclassification In order to approve an application for a Zone Reclassification, the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors shall determine that the following Bases for Zone Reclassification can be made in the affirmative: a) The proposed zone district is consistent with the General Plan, any applicable Master Plan, and any applicable Specific Plan. • The proposed Zone Reclassification is consistent with the General Plan because the parcel has a General Plan designation of RIR (Rural Residential); the R-R (Rural Residential) zone is an implementing zone of the RIR General Plan designation. Parcels will be a minimum of two-acres and, therefore, may be developed with a private septic system, individual well and on-site storm drainage. b) The proposed zone district is reasonable and beneficial at the time. • The proposed zone reclassification would be reasonable and beneficial at this time as it creates infill in an existing rural community and is not an expansion of it. Furthermore, it has met the infrastructure requirements for rural communities and has a General Plan designation of RIR (Rural Residential). Agricultural Mitigation This project will be subject to the Agricultural Mitigation Ordinance of the Development Title if the project is approved. The Ordinance requires agricultural mitigation for a Zone Reclassification that changes the permitted uses from agricultural to a non-agricultural use, regardless of the General Plan designation. (Section 9-1080.3(x) (1)).Agricultural Mitigation shall be satisfied by granting a farmland conservation easement or other farmland conservation mechanism as set forth in Development Title Section 9-1080.3(d). The number of acres of agricultural mitigation land shall be at least equal to the number of acres that will be changed to a non-agricultural use (a 1 A ratio). Pursuant to Section 9-1080.3(f), submission of the required legal instrument to provide agricultural mitigation land shall occur at the time of Grading Permit or Building Permit issuance for the underlying development 3 i
