May 1 , 2023 Dear Mr . Guisepppe Sanfilippo , am opposing the development of a non - agricultural building at 12925 W . Bethany Road in Tracy , CA . Application # PA - 2100238 ( UP ) This land is zoned A & 40 and is in a floodplain . The property in question is surrounded by Agriculture and is not in the path of development . Even though the county allows Religious Assembly on Agriculturally zoned ground , this development has several obstacles to overcome . Bethany Road is a narrow two lane road with no shoulders to speak of . There needs to be mitigation for an ingress and egress to the property . A middle lane is needed so that traffic is not impacted . That would consist of widening Bethany Road to accommodate the middle turn lane which includes PGE poles and a drainage ditch . There should not be parking allowed on the shoulders of the road , as currently occurring at the Religious Assembly on Larch and Corral Hollow Roads . All members have to be able to park on the facilities premises . Instead of this facility paying mitigation for a traffic light on the corner of Tracy Auto Plaza and Tracy Volkswagen on Naglee Road ( 2 Miles from the proposed project ) , a traffic light on the corner of Lammers Road and Bethany Road makes more sense . This is where the developers should have to pay mitigation . There should be a traffic study of that corner which consists of 24 hours a day for a week . There is already a huge amount of traffic because of Waze sending commuters through country roads in the area ( Lammers , Bethany , Corral Hollow and Naglee ) , which is very detrimental to the normal movement of agriculture equipment and commodities . This part of Tracy is very windy and the development needs to be fenced or otherwise landscaped so that any trash is not being blown onto neighboring farms . On either sides of the corner of Naglee and Bethany Roads , Naglee Burk operates an Irrigation ditch . The road is very narrow and widening it will be needed . The costs of these improvements should be borne by the developers and not the Irrigation District or the farmers affected . Hours of operation and large events should be addressed . No more than two large events should be allowed per year and noise levels need to be contained . No music or noise past 9 pm . own property on Naglee and Bethany and in the last few years approximately every month someone speeding cannot negotiate the turns and manages to land in my alfalfa field . As farmers , we have to deal with traffic , water , weather and development . The County does not have enough Sheriff Officers and Code Enforcement Officers to be able to handle all the problems that will arise . I feel that the planning commission should revisit the ability to have Religious Assembly on Agricultural zoned land in the county unless it is in the path of development . respectfully ask the conditional use permit is denied . Sincerely , zf 7La i Nanette Martin 12067 S . Lammers Road Tracy , CA 95304 209 - 479 - 5862
