2. Supervisor McGowan made a substitute motion to adopt the staff’s recommended action. 3. With continued discussion, the Board voted on the original motion, and the following minute order was adopted:
Dunnigan:
General: Designate between 650 and 1,5002000 new acres as “Specific Plan” to potentially allow for future development as described below. Any Specific Plan prepared under this approach must ensure consistency with both the County General Plan update and the local community General Plan. Project specific goals and policies for new development will be established in the Specific Plan, as well as design standards that address the character of the existing community. Provisions will be included in both the Specific Plan and accompanying Development Agreements to require phased economic development, and to require a match between jobs and housing (“concurrency” policies). Policies to ensure the creation of a downtown area will also be required.
Residential: Allow for the possible development of between 2,500 5,000 and 7,500 new residential units. The developer would be required to show significant net benefit to the community after accounting for all capital and operational costs including the following minimum “quality of life” needs for a sustainable community: community-wide sewer system, community-wide water system, community-wide drainage system, grocery store, basic medical service, elementary school, sheriff’s services, and professional fire department
Develop housing with an average density of less than 8 units per acre. Housing should be located away from Interstate 5 and should connect the Hardwood Subdivision and the Old Town area. Smaller lots and higher densities would be located on the valley floor, while larger lots and lower densities would be located in the poorer hill soils. Schools should be centrally located.
Commercial/Industrial: Add 230 new commercial/industrial acres, proportionate to meet local retail demand, target an average jobs density of 16 jobs per acre, and to ensure a balanced jobs/housing relationship of 1.2 jobs per house, at build-out. Include requirements for concurrency between housing and jobs, and/or other mechanisms to constrain housing to stay balanced with job creation through build-out of the area. Each phase of housing shall be required to be accompanied by balanced job-generating development. Overall wages shall be matched to home prices. Concentrate commercial and industrial uses between Interstate-5 and Road 99W. Commercial trucking uses should continue to be concentrated at the County Road 8 and Interstate-5 interchange.
Moved by Rexroad, seconded by Chamberlain.
