Title
Northeast Area Specific Plan
Description
The City of Sebastopol is preparing a Specific Plan for the City's 54-acre northeast area, which is intended to guide the area's development and conservation. The area includes parcels east of Petaluma Ave., south of Laguna Park Way, adjoining Morris Street, and adjoining Sebastopol Ave. Both Sebastopol Avenue and Petaluma Avenue are State Highways (Routes 12 and 116 respectively). The purpose of the plan is to articulate a vision for a varied pedestrian-oriented environment that offers housing options, economic opportunities and civic functions, while supporting Sebastopol's character and quality of life. The plan includes design guidance, establishes floodplain requirements, provides biological resources information, and sets forth infrastructure and implementation strategies. Objectives include integration with the existing downtown and the adjacent Laguna de Santa rosa; provision of a pedestrian-oriented design; and establishment of improved circulation and streetscapes. While not a development project, the plan contemplates the development of 300 dwelling units and net development of 164,000 sq. ft. of non-residential uses. The EIR provides an assessment of the draft Specific Plan. Key environmental issues include but are not limited to: circulation; floodplain; water quality and hydrology issues; infrastructure and public services; aesthetics; population and housing; land use and planning; biotic and wetland resources; historical resources; and air quality and noise.
