Present Land Use
Subject parcel is currently developed with a cabin, 3 illegal yurts, an on-site sewages disposal system (SDS) and a CDF pumphouse and water line that goes to the fire station across the street. The site is fairly heavily wooded and sits on a ledge +/- 45' above the river. It is the biologist's professional opinion that a reduction to 50' will not negatively impact the riparian corridor or other resources if mitigated as proposed.
GP: Timber (T). Residential uses are considered primary and compatible in the Timber land use designation.
Z: Unclassified (U).
Document Description
A Special Permit for a reduction of the 100' Streamside Management Area (SMA) for the Mattole River to accommodate three existing yurts and permit a fourth. The yurts are 20-30' diameter and will function as detached bedrooms for the applicant's young adult children. A new septic tank, pump chamber and bath house are also proposed within the SMA, but the leachfields are to be located more than 100' from the river. The yurts and septic facilities are +/- 40-50' from the Mattole's stream transition line. The +/- 3.25 acre parcel is currently developed with a small residence which has no bedrooms. The parcel is served by on-site sewage disposal and water from the Mattole. A biological report has been prepared and circulated to the Redding office of DFG for comments.
