Analysis Background On July 28, 1998 the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution R-98-340 and Ordinance No. 3984, amending the General Plan designation of a 16.26 acre parcel from A/L (Limited Agriculture) to I/T (Truck Terminal) and reclassifying the same 16.26 acre parcel from AL-5 (Limited Agriculture 5 acre minimum lot size)to I-T (Truck Terminal). With the exception of an off premise sign constructed in 2003 (PA-0300302), the project site has remained undeveloped. On July 26, 2007, the applicant submitted a General Plan Map Amendment to amend the General Plan designation of the aforementioned 16.26 acre site from I/T(Truck Terminal)to C/FS (Freeway Service Commercial). The Zone Reclassification application was not submitted at the time to allow the Community Development Department to review the project and determine if the project site was an expansion of the urban community of Stockton. Upon review it was determined that the project site is located outside of the urban community of Stockton and therefore is not an expansion of the urban community of Stockton. On December 6, 2007, the applicant submitted a Zone Reclassification application to reclassify the same 16.26-acre site from I-T to C-FS. City of Stockton The Community Development Department received one letter of opposition from the City of Stockton Community Development Department, Planning Division. The City of Stockton recommends the project be denied because the project is inconsistent with applicable goals and policies of the recently adopted 2035 City of Stockton General Plan. Specifically, the proposal to develop an independent, freeway-oriented commercial use project should be abandoned in favor of a comprehensive residential project with integrated commercial uses. In response, the project site is located outside of the urban community of Stockton as well as the sphere of influence boundary for the City of Stockton. The proposed General Plan Map Amendment meets the Development and Locational criteria for the C/FS (Freeway Service Commercial) designation as identified in Vol 1, pp IV-25,26, of the San Joaquin County 2010 General Plan. Basis for General Plan Amendment Development Title Sect 9-803.4 states that prior to approving the General Plan Amendment, the Board of Supervisors will have to determine that the internal consistency of the General Plan is maintained in adoption of the proposed General Plan Map Amendment. The proposed change must be consistent with all of the various General Plan goals, policies, objectives, and implementation measures. Function The function of the Commercial Freeway Service is to provide for commercial uses oriented almost exclusively to serving the needs of the freeway or state highway traveler.
