Document Description
A General Plan Amendment to the American River Parkway Plan, an Element of the Sacramento County General Plan. The project is an Update to the 1985 Parkway Plan, an Element of the Sacramento County General Plan, to reflect current interests and technical information. The project consists of a policy-level decision about allowable uses and designations within the Parkway Plan. No project-level, or construction-level, project is proposed at this time. Any future construction proposed consistent with the Parkway Plan would undergo separate review for CEQA compliance at the time the project is proposed. The Parkway Plan includes 19 “Area Plans” that detail uses within those areas. The Parkway Plan also includes six land use designations applicable to the Area Plans that are more specific than the General Plan land use diagram provides. No amendments to the Sacramento County General Plan land use diagram or Zoning designations are necessary as part of this project. The proposed Update includes amendments to 10 of the 19 Area Plans, to designate planned facilities and uses. Policies from the 1985 Parkway Plan are proposed to be amended or deleted, and approximately 125 new policies are proposed to be added as a part of the Update. The proposed changes are numerous, and range from new policies related to vegetation management and flood control to prioritization of funding for Parkway Management. The policy changes have been proposed in order to promote the objectives of the Parkway Plan. A new discretionary recreational use, which would allow walkers, runners and bicyclists to use existing unpaved maintenance/utility roads, is also proposed.
