Title

Humboldt Trap and Skeet Club New Skeet Field

Description

A Coastal Development Permit for the construction of a new skeet field to be located at the site of the Humboldt Trap and Skeet Club on the property of the Arcata- Eureka Airport. The new skeet field will consist of a 14'4" tall high house and 7' tall low house and a concrete walk for the shooting stations. Within the area leased by the Humboldt Trap and Skeet Club the parcel is developed with a club house, two trap fields, two skeet fields and one sporting clays field. The facility is typically open on Sundays and Wednesdays from 9AM to 3PM. Hours are extended until dusk on Wednesdays during the summer. Additionally many government and community groups use the facility on Saturdays for training. Hunter Safety courses are held in the Club House on a regular basis. The proposal to add an additional skeet field will not require extended hours of operations. The Humboldt County Board of Supervisors approved the proposal on August 27, 2007, contingent on receiving the required permits. The parcel is served by McKinleyville Community Services District. There are no trees proposed to be removed and minimal grading is required. As part of the project the applicants will implement an on-going lead removal plan. The project will occur within an area where there are known occurrences of coast checkerbloom, a rare plant. Impacts to the plant will be avoided and mitigated. A Special Permit is required for Design Review.
