Agenda Items V4 Community Development Contra Costa County EAST COUNTY REGIONAL PLANNING COMMISSION MONDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1992 - 7:00 P.M. I. INTRODUCTION STREMEL ENTERPRISES (Applicant & Owner) - The project consists of two related applications: County File #2988-RZ: The applicant requests approval to rezone 26.62 acres of land from Heavy Agricultural District (A-3) to General Agricultural District (A-2). Subdivision #7790: The applicant requests approval of a vesting tentative map to divide 28.62 acres into six (6) lots. Variances are requested for net lot area for all six (6) lots. Five acres required, proposed net acreage ranges from 4.28 to 4.6± acres after deducting all access easements. The subject property for the above reference projects are located at the northwest corner of Camino Diablo (760 foot frontage) and Bixler Road (1 ,300 foot frontage), in the Byron area. (A-3) (ZA: Q-28m) (CT 3040) (Parcel #002-030-005). ll. APPLICATION STATUS This matter was continued from October 12, 1992, mainly because of the extensive agenda on that date. There was also a question of the relationship of the urban limit line and the General Plan use designation. The property is outside the urban limit line but shown in part for Single Family Residential-Very Low Density. The General Plan use designation would take precedence. The main purpose of the urban limit line is to preclude a General Plan Amendment outside the urban limit line. It does not restrict residential use if so designated on the General.Plan. Staff had recommended approval of the project subject to rezoning a portion of the property to Single Family Residential District (R-40), per the General Plan, which also eliminates any variances for lot size. See attached staff report. BT/aa RZXVII/2988-RZA.BT 10/19/92 Agenda Items Community Development Contra Costa County EAST COUNTY REGIONAL PLANNING COMMISSION MONDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1992 - 7:00 P.M. I.- INTRODUCTION STREMEL ENTERPRISES (Applicant & Owner) - The project consists of two related applications: County File #2988-RZ: The applicant requests approval to rezone 26.62 acres of land from Heavy Agricultural District (A-3) to General Agricultural District (A-2). Subdivision #7790: The applicant requests approval of a vesting tentative map to divide 28.62 acres into six (6) lots. Variances are requested for net lot area for all six (6) lots. Five acres required, proposed net acreage ranges from 4.28 to 4.6 t acres after deducting all access easements. The subject property for the above reference projects are located at the northwest corner of Camino Diablo (760 foot frontage) and Bixler Road (1 ,300 foot frontage), in the Byron area. (A-3) (ZA: 0-28m) (CT 3040) (Parcel #002-030-005). II. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the south 10± acres of this proposal (area of Lots 5 and 6) be rezoned to Single Family Residential District(R-40) and the remaining north 20 f acres (area of Lots 1 thru 4) be rezoned to General Agriculture'District (A-2). The area of the proposed A-2 zoning to provide for net 5 acre parcel sizes to eliminate parcel size variances. Adopt a motion recommending to the Board of Supervisors that land in 2988-RZ be rezoned from Heavy Agricultural District (A-3) to General Agriculture District (A-2) and Single Family Residential District (R-40). III. GENERAL INFORMATION A. General Plan: The front third of the property is designated Single Family Residential-Very Low Density (0.2 to 0.9 units per acre) and the remainder is designated as agricultural lands. B. Zoning: The site is currently zoned Heavy Agricultural District (A-3). C. CEQA Status: A Negative Declaration was posted for this project on Septem- ber 18, 1992. 2. D. History: Prior applications for this property include: MS 33-90: Applicant received approval for three (3) lots; 9.04 acres each. A - parcel map has not been filed. The tentative map does not expire until June 4, 1993 (unless an extension is granted for the expiration date). Subdivision 7415: Applicant applied for a six (6) lot subdivision; 4.5 t acres each. The application was withdrawn on March 23, 1990 with the subsequent submittal of MS 33-90. Caretaker Mobilehome: Previous owners.had received two use permits in the 1970's. The structure is still on the property but does not.appear to be inhabited. The LUP's have expired. IV. AGENCY COMMENTS A. East Diablo Fire Protection District: Standard requirements are recommended. See attached letter. B. Byron-Bethany Irrigation District: A 25' wide easement has been requested along the westerly and northerly property lines for irrigation delivery ditches and access routes. Specific conditions were requested. See attached letter. C. Environmental Health: Requested sewage connections not septic systems. See attached letter. D. Archaeological Inventory: No study recommended. E. Building Inspection Department: Permits may be required. V. ROAD AND DRAINAGE CONSIDERATIONS Public Works Department Report The applicant has indicated on his Vesting Tentative Map that drainage release to be acquired form La .Sorella Family Trust. He should be aware that Title 9 of the Ordinance-Code requires that drainage releases be obtained from all property owners between the boundaries of the subdivision and the point at which the surface waters will enter a natural watercourse having a definable' bed and bank or an existing adequate public storm drainage facility. Since the proposed lots are less than 10 acres in area the applicant will be required to construct interim. width road improvements offsite to a paved.roadway which the applicant has access along to a public roadway. This requirement is inaddition to the normal requirement for frontage improvements along the frontage of this property. The applicant should be required to construct road improvements along the fronting roads to public road standards. A minimum of a 28-foot road within a 40-foot right of way would need to be provided in order for the roads to be County maintained when connected to an existing County maintained roadway. 3. VI. SITE DESCRIPTION The site is predominately fallow-farm land. -There are four structures in various states of collapse on the northwesterly corner of proposed Parcel #3. The site slopes less than 0.3%. Camino Diablo is paved and approximately 20 feet wide. Bixler Road does not connect to Bixler Road north of the project. There is a gravel roadway that serves as driveway access to properties east of the site. Coleta's Way is a private access roadway on the westerly side of the project. It currently serves three residences. The middle residence is on 5 acres that have been approved for subdivision into 4 lots (MS 7-87). Properties to the north and south of the site are 30 acres or larger, properties to the east average 10 acres, and properties to the west range from 1 to 5 acres with smaller parcels as you get closer to Byron. VII. PROPOSED PROJECT The proposed project would create six (6) new ranchette properties. Each property would have well water and be connected to sewer. No structures or a development plan have been proposed or submitted. Access to building sites Lots 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 would be by a central cul-de-sac. Access to Lot 1 would be from Coleta's Way. Easement or right of way dedications are required for Camino Diablo, Bixler Road and Coleta's Way. There is no proposed roadway for the northerly boundary. Site drainage is proposed as sheet flow. Public Works is requiring "collect and convey" and the applicant intends to.do so across the land to the north. (A drainage release would be obtained, not a storm drainage system.) Only minor grading is proposed (less than 2' cut maximum), mainly on Lots 1 and 2. IX. DISCUSSION The main issue with this project is lot size. The applicant has proposed the two largest lots (5 acres gross) along Camino Diablo and the smaller lots to the rear. Because of access easements all six lots are smaller than that required by the requested zoning (A- 2 is 5 acre net minimum). The current general plan designates the southerly 400± acres of the property as Single Family Residential-Very Low Density. A-2 zoning is consistent with this designation. Also consistent are R-40, R-65 and R-100. Staff is recommending that the rezoning requested by the applicant be modified so that no variances for lot size are required. Staff proposes that Lots.1 and 2 be zoned R-40 and Lots 3, 4, 5, and 6 be zoned A-2. Lots 3, 4, 5, and 6 would be enlarged to 5 acres net and Lots 1 and 3 would be reduced to 3± acres net each. Although the R-40 zoning would be an "island" between A-2 and A-3 zoning, it is consistent with the general plan designation and there has been a parcel map approved (MS 7-87) that created 1 acre parcels 4. immediately to the west of the subject property (the parcel map has not been recorded as of September, 1992). If the Commission is concerned that Lots 1 and 2 would be further subdividable, then the rezoning could.be made R-100. That zoning would still conform.to the general plan designation and the lots would be conforming but not subdividable. The project site is not used for agricultural production at this time, the soils re not considered prime soil (Bc) and there is a high water table. The land appears to be more suitable for the agricultural uses of a "ranchette" than to remain as heavy agricultural land. The proposed cul-de-sac will have to be widened to meet the Fire District requirement of a 20 foot wide all-weather surface. Camino Diablo is not proposed to extend east of its current terminus on the County road plan but Bixler Road would ultimately extend north to the Bixler Road that connects to Highway 4. X. CONCLUSION Rezoning of the property to Agriculture (A-2) and Residential (R-40) would be appropriate as indicated in Item IX above. This is consistent with the General Plan and would eliminate any variances to lot size. ME/BT/aa RZXVII/2988-RZ.ME 9/30/92 0 0 CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL FOR SUBDIVISION 7790 1.
