SUBJECT: Rezoning Application 2639-RZ, Development Plan 3046-85
and appeal of Sandmound Investors from Conditions of
Approval on Sub 6610, Bethel Island area.
This being the time for hearing on the recommendation of
the County Planning Commission with respect to a request by
Sandmound Investors (applicant and owner) 2639-RZ to rezone 35 acres
from Water Recreational District (F-1) to Planned Unit District
(P-1) , together with a Development Plan for 91 residential units,
Development Plan 3046-85 , and on the appeal from the conditions of
approval of Subdivsion 6610 in the Bethel Island area, and
Harvey Bragdon, Assistant Director of Community
Development, described the site and the proposed project and advised
that the Planning Commission recommended the property be rezoned
subject to all conditions imposed by the Commission and that
Sandmound Investors had appealed the conditions- of approval for
Subdivision 6610. He advised that all the appealed conditions had
been resolved except for the road fee.
The Chair declared the hearing opened and the following
persons appeared to testify:
1 . Constance Brady, Architect for Sandmound Investors,
P .O. Box 339 , Bethel Island, CA 94511 who advised that the applicant
had not had the opportunity to review proposed revised conditions.
She requested that the matter be continued for a week to give the
applicant an opportunity to review the revised conditions and
because the applicant' s counsel could not be present today.
2. Darrell Edwards, Route 2, Box 293A, Oakley, Sandmound
Committee Against Traffic, submitted petitions against the proposed
development from property owners in the area. He advised that he
would prefer that the development not be built, but if it were to be
built, one of the conditions should be that Cypress Boulevard be
extended. He commented on the narrowness and condition of Sandmound
Boulevard and the impact the additional traffic would have, and
urged that any approval be conditioned to provide that all traffic
from the proposed project use the Cypress Boulevard extension for
egress and ingress. He also expressed concern about the quality of
the water in the Delta and particularly Rock Slough if water is
pumped from holding ponds or lakes into the slough.
3 • Richard Rockwell, 113 G Street, Antioch, representing
Reclamation District 799 , advised that the Reclamation District
had requested the Planning Commission to impose certain conditions
of approval on Subdivision 6610, but that some of the conditions
were not exactly as the District had requested. He advised that
the District has the prime responsibility for maintenance of the
levy, and therefore it is important that matters such as dedication
of land, location of borings for soils studies, specifications for
levy improvements, slopes, and plantings as well as ramps, be sub-
ject to District approval.
Because of the lateness of the hour and other matters
on the agenda still to be heard, the Chair suggested referring the
above concerns to staff for review and continuing the hearing.
