NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING

INTENT TO APPROVE PARCEL MAP AND

INTENT TO ADOPT ORDINANCE REZONING LANDS

LASSEN COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS

The Lassen County Planning Commission held a public hearing on July 5, 2022, and is recommending that the Board of Supervisors approve the following project:

Applicant: Laurence and Denice Crabtree

File No.: Rezone #2022-001 and Parcel Map #2022-003

Project:   Proposal to rezone a single 79-acre legal parcel from A-1 (General Agricultural District) to A-3 (Agricultural District), and divide said parcel into a 1-acre parcel (Parcel 1, “homesite” parcel) and a 78-acre parcel (Parcel 2), pursuant to Lassen County Code Section 18.108.250 (Segregation of Homesites in Agricultural   Zones). The proposed rezone is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Sections 15061(b)(3) and 15183 of the CEQA  Guidelines, as the A-3 zoning district is generally more restrictive than the A-1   zoning district and a rezoning of the subject parcel to the A-3 district is consistent with the Lassen County zoning code and Lassen County General Plan, 2000.             Additionally, pursuant to Section 15300.4 of the CEQA Guidelines, the proposed  parcel map is exempt from CEQA, as the segregation of homesites has been  identified by Lassen County Board Resolution No. 01-043 as locally exempt under  Section 15315 of the CEQA Guidelines.

Location:    The parcel is located at 661-960 Susanville Road, approximately 4 miles   northeast of Bieber, CA.

General Plan Designation:   Intensive Agriculture

Existing Zoning: A-1 (General Agricultural District)

Proposed  Zoning:   A-3 (Agricultural District

A.P.N.: 003-090-025                       

Staff Contact:   Nancy McAllister, Senior Planner

A complete copy of the proposed ordinance to affect the rezone will be available for public review no later than five days prior to the Board of Supervisor’s public hearing in the office of the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors.

The Board of Supervisors will hold a public hearing to receive the Planning Commission’s recommendation and consider approval of the projects at 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, August 9, 2022, in the Board Chambers, 707 Nevada Street, Susanville. All interested persons are invited to attend the meeting and be heard, or to submit comments to the Dept. of Planning and Building Services, 707 Nevada St., Suite 5, Susanville, CA 96130.
