General Plan Amendment and Rezone Application No. PLN2023-0166 – Gallo Glass Company

Request to amend the General Plan designation of 24 parcels from Industrial Transition to Industrial, and to amend the zoning designation of all 24 parcels from Single-Family Residential (R-1) to Planned Development, to allow for the expansion of outdoor storage associated with the adjacent Gallo Glass Company facility (Gallo). No construction is proposed initially; however, the project includes the potential construction of a 150,000± square-foot warehouse building, up to 75-feet in height, to accommodate the growth of the Gallo Glass Company if and when additional indoor storage is required in lieu of outdoor storage at a future date. The project site includes a former segment of Modesto Irrigation District (MID) Lateral Canal No. 1, between Santa Cruz and Santa Rita Avenues that has since been abandoned, identified as Assessor Parcel Number (APN) 035-004-070. On March 26, 2024, the Stanislaus County Board of Supervisors approved the formal abandonment of the following County road rights-of-way which lie adjacent to the project parcels: the southerly segment of Santa Rita Avenue beginning at the south edge of Mono Park; the westerly segment of Tenaya Avenue beginning mid-block between Santa Rita and S. Santa Cruz Avenues; and the westerly segment of Del Mar Court, beginning mid-point between its two termination points at Tenaya Avenue. These roadways will be maintained for interior private drive aisles for the existing Gallo Glass Company facility. Gated access is proposed to be installed on Santa Rita Avenue and Tenaya Avenue where the public right-of-way ends, and along South Santa Cruz Avenue. The project applicant intends on requesting formal abandonment of additional Tenaya Avenue right-of-way adjacent to adjacent to APNs 035-010-012, -013, and 035-011-006 at a future date, by separate application made to the Department of Public Works. In the meantime, the 20-foot-wide alley which runs north-south from Del Mar Court to Tenaya Avenue is proposed to be graveled and utilized for emergency vehicle access.
