Tracy Northeast Business Park Project

Tracy Northeast Business Park Project

The Dermody Properties and Suvik Farms, LLC (co-applicants) are proposing the Tracy Northeast Business Park Project (proposed project), which consists of the development of up to 2,834,919 square feet of warehouse/distribution and/or manufacturing uses, including ancillary office uses and related improvements on approximately 169.05 acres (comprised of a total of five existing parcels). The five parcels consist of two Dermody parcels (totaling approximately 122.44 acres; collectively, Dermody Property) and three Suvik parcels (totaling approximately 46.61 acres; collectively, Suvik Property). The Dermody Property and the Suvik Property, collectively, are referred to herein as the “project site”. The project site is within unincorporated San Joaquin County adjacent to the City of Tracy’s northeastern city limits, adjacent to the City of Tracy NEI Specific Plan area, and is also within the City’s Sphere of Influence (10-year planning horizon). The proposed project would require several discretionary entitlements including LAFCO approval of annexation into the City of Tracy (and related detachment from the Tracy Rural Fire District), as well as City approval of the related pre-zoning, an amendment to the NEI Specific Plan, Tentative Parcel Maps or Lot Line Adjustment to create final development lots, and Development Review Permit approval. Development on the Dermody Property would consist of a total of approximately 1,811,259 square feet of warehouse/distribution and/or manufacturing space located throughout three buildings, as well as an approximately 12.44-acre stormwater detention basin with pump station (that would be City owned and managed). Approximately 12.51 acres of the Dermody Property would be reserved to accommodate a portion of a planned future interchange at Paradise Road and Interstate 205 (I-205). However, these planned interchange improvements constitute a separate project and therefore the potential impacts of constructing this future interchange would undergo a separate environmental review process pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) once funding is programmed and available and once the relevant public agencies finalize the ultimate design of the interchange; accordingly, the construction of the future interchange is not considered part of the proposed project, although the interchange is assumed to be in place as part of the cumulative conditions within the Transportation Impact Analysis in the Draft Environmental Impact Report (Draft EIR). Although Suvik intends to process a site-specific Development Review Permit subsequent to certification of this environmental document, for purposes of a conservative analysis, a conceptual building orientation plan for the Suvik Property has been prepared to provide site-specific information regarding conceptual building orientation to facilitate project- level review and analysis hereunder. For the purposes of analysis in this Draft EIR, buildout of the Suvik Property is estimated to consist of a maximum total of approximately 1,023,660 square feet of warehouse/distribution and/or manufacturing uses, which conservatively reflects the maximum allowable density per acre identified in the NEI Specific Plan. The proposed project also includes demolition of existing agricultural buildings, removal of existing trees and crops, installation of related on- and off-site road and utility improvements to serve the proposed project, and grading of a total of approximately 450,000 cubic yards, which would be balanced on-site. Of the approximately 450,000 cubic yards of material graded, approximately 300,000 cubic yards would occur on the Dermody Property, with the remaining approximately 150,000 cubic yards occurring on the Suvik Property.
