Title

Rutherford Winery Major Modification P19-00126 Exception to the Conservation Regulations P23-00145

Description

The proposal is to modify an existing winery Use Permit to recognize the following items that are out of compliance with the permitted entitlements: increased number of employees and weekly visitation, holding marketing events, on-premises consumption and food pairings, and additional parking spaces. In addition, the application also seeks to expand its entitlements to further increase employees and daily and weekly visitation, set up an annual marketing plan, convert portions of an existing residence to winery use, install a commercial kitchen in the winery building, increase parking, complete wastewater system improvements, implement a Travel Demand Management Plan, and clarify days and hours of operation. The project includes an Exception to the Conservation Regulations due to winery improvements located directly adjacent to an unnamed blue line stream on the property. The Exception would recognize existing improvements installed prior to the Conservation Regulations or in association with previously approved entitlements, as well as improvements installed without benefit of permits. The project includes implementation of a restoration plan for areas where unpermitted improvements are proposed to be removed.
