Description

Request to subdivide three parcels totaling 848± acres into 21 parcels, each 40± acres or more in size in the General Agriculture (A-2-40) zoning district. The existing parcels are currently planted in almond orchards, grape vines, and forage crops; no change in the agricultural production on the proposed parcels is anticipated. The current parcels are irrigated with water from on-site irrigation wells via sprinklers and pumps. The proposed parcels will irrigate independently from wells on individual parcels. The proposed parcels are improved with the following: • Proposed Parcel 1 will encompass an existing single-family dwelling, agricultural storage building, shed, almond trees, and private well and septic system; • Proposed Parcel 20 will encompass an existing single-family dwelling, three agricultural storage buildings, almond trees and private well and septic system. • Proposed Parcels 4-5, 8-10, 14, 16-17, 19 and 21 are planted in almond trees. • In addition to being planted in almond trees, proposed Parcels 2-3, 6-7, 11-13, 15, and 18, are also improved with the following: • Proposed Parcel 2 has an existing pond. • Proposed Parcels 3, 7, 11, and 18 have existing irrigation wells and filtration systems. • Proposed Parcel 6 has an existing utility pole. • Proposed Parcel 12 has an existing natural drainage basin on-site. • Proposed Parcels 13 and 15 will be bisected by the Turlock Irrigation District (TID) High Line Canal along the eastern portion of each Proposed Parcel. The applicant proposes to continue utilizing existing access easements over the TID bridges to access portions of Proposed Parcels 13 and 15 that will be east of the canal. Proposed Parcels 19 and 20 have direct access onto Montpellier Road, a County-maintained Road. Proposed Parcel 21 has an existing 20-foot-wide access easement along a portion of the southern property line across proposed Parcel 20 for access onto Montpellier Road. Proposed Parcel 13 has an existing 30-foot-wide road right-of-way easement located along the eastern portion of the parcel to access Meikle Road, a County-maintained Road. Additionally, five 30-foot-wide private road easements are proposed as part of this request to provide primary access for proposed Parcels 1-19 and 21 to Montpellier Road and secondary access to Meikle Road. The proposed 30-foot-wide private road easements will be covered with four inches of crushed rock. The well and filter system located on proposed Parcel 3 may be abandoned in the future due to a section of the 30-foot-wide private road easement proposed over the existing well site.
