Analysis Background If the project is approved, then approved Lot Line Adjustment Application No.PA-1 000232 will be recorded so that the project area will become a portion of the lots to the south. The adjacent area was designated C/FS in 2000. The applicants have submitted Use Permit No. PA-1000131 for a truck stop at this site. The Use Permit will be heard by the Planning Commission after the traffic study has been reviewed by the Department of Public Works. Agricultural Mitigation Agricultural mitigation will be required for this project. It will be a condition of approval of the underlying project and must be,implemented before a building permit is issued. The purpose of agricultural mitigation is to implement the .agricultural land conservation policies contained in the San Joaquin County General Plan that are related to permanently protecting agricultural land within the County. The County requires agricultural mitigation for a General Plan Amendment that changes the designation of any land from an agricultural to a non-agricultural use or a Zoning Reclassification that changes the permitted uses from agriculture to a nonagricultural use, regardless of the General Plan designation. Agricultural mitigation shall be satisfied by granting a farmland conservation easement or other farmland conservation mechanism to, or for, the benefit of a Qualifying Entity. 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 1:1 ratio). General Plan Policies Development Title Section 9-803.4 states that prior to approving an application for a General Plan Amendment, the Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors shall determine that the internal consistency of the General Plan is maintained in the adoption of the Amendment.
