Document Description
The proposed Project would construct a new infill Mixed-Use Planned Development consisting of up to 70 residential units for seniors and individuals with disabilities, a four-story Mixed-Use Community Center, a greenhouse, garden space, orchard, recreation facilities, and walking trails at 1515 Central Ave, McKinleyville CA. The Project proposes construction of up to 70 total residential units to house approximately 100 to 120 occupants. The Community Center will host residential uses, retail use, and temporary uses, such as classes, trainings, meetings, community meals, and indoor and outdoor weddings. The primary outdoor grounds will be host to temporary uses as well. A total of 13,470 square feet of existing wetlands are proposed to be filled to accommodate the proposed development. To mitigate the loss of wetlands, 16,052 square feet of upland area is proposed to be converted to wetlands expanding the footprint of existing wetlands on the Project Site, shown on the Site Plan as “Wetland Mitigation Areas”. The site is served water and sewer from the McKinleyville Community Services District. The project also includes a Lot Line Adjustment of four parcels to accommodate the proposed development.
