Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
Adoption of Ordinance No. 4420 on December 4, 2018, making amendments to Chapters 10A.17 and 20.242 as well as adding Chapters 20.118 and 20.119 to County Code.
Summary of Request:
A Rezone to add a Cannabis Accommodation (CA) Combining District over fourteen (14) separate parcels (APNs: 160-150-11, 160-150-22, 160-150-39, 160-150-40, 160-190-12, 160-190-13, 160-190-14, 160-200-27, 160-200-32, 160-200-33, 160-200-34, 160-200-35, 160-200-36 and 160-200-37) totaling 27.03± acres to provide greater flexibility in development standards related to cannabis activities for existing commercial cannabis cultivation sites and suspend the ‘Sunset Provision for Residential Districts’ to facilitate continued operation. The Planning Commission, at their August 6, 2020 meeting, was not able to make a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors regarding the project or the adoption of an addendum to the previously adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration. The Planning Commission voted to send the rezoning (R_2019-0009) to the Board of Supervisors without a recommendation. Staff recommends approval of the project to the Board of Supervisors finding that: 1) an addendum to the existing Mitigated Negative Declaration (SCH # 2016112028) has been completed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and pursuant to Article 11, Section 15162 of the CEQA guidelines; and 2) the proposed project is consistent with the Rural Residential (RR) Land Use Designations; and 3) the proposed project is consistent with Mendocino County Code Chapter 20.118. See attached Resolution, Ordinance, Staff memo, Planning Commission Report and the August 6, 2020 Planning Commission Minutes.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Deny the rezone request and provide direction to staff.
