Minutes , October 18, 1985 Paye 2 He distributed a letter from Alexander Henson, Attorney represent- ing adjacent property owners. Jose L. Alva, representing the Stockton Terminal and Eastern ltail- road which is the subdivider and principal owner of the Fairchild Industrial Park, stated that the formation of this County Service Area was required by the County as a condition of the subdivision approval. Fie explained that the "storm drainage" function applies to drainage of roadways only. Individual owners must pond and dis- pose of their on-site storm drainage. He asked that the Commission approve the formation of CSA #40 , Fairchild Industrial Park. Alexander Henson, Attorney for Concerned Citizens of San Joaquin County, stated that his clients oppose the formation of this County Service Area for Fairchild Industrial Park and specifically the Quality Assured Packing tomato cannery. His clients were unsuc- cessful. in blocking the building permits for the cannery and cur- rently have a temporary court order prohibiting offensive odors. lie has also filed suit concerning the adequacy of the County Gonoral Plan. He opposes approval of this CSA for two reasons . First, the FTS, is inadequate due to change in circumstances in tile v ci _ it (increased r ential development, sewage problems , and traffic problems) and m u ated rior to a decision. econd- y, e a eport is incomplete because it does not iscuss all factors required by G.C. Section 54796. lie submits that the County General Plan is inadequate for use as a factor considered by The Commission. For these reasons, he asked that The Commisssion deny the proposal or continue consideration until you have sufficient information on which to base your decision. Kathy Sousa, nearby property owner, spoke in opposition because of odor, ponding, traffic, noise and lights. Russell Woodrum, nearby property owner, spoke in opposition. lie stated that The County ' s report stated that a tomato cannery could not go there . .lose Alva spoke in rebuttal. He asked that The Commission focus on the issues of forming a County Service Area. Services would include only maintenance and operation of roadway storm drainage, street lighting , and a water system for fire protection. This is required by the: County . All facilities have been or will be provided by the duvcloper. He asked that the Commission approve the proposal as recommended by staff. The question of adequacy of the EIR was discussed with Mike McGrew. The Commission may proceed if it finds that the environmental asses- sment is adequate for the three purposes and services of the County Service Area. That is the limit of the Commission ' s jurisdiction in this matter.
