NAPA PIPE PROJECT: CEQA FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATION TO BOARD OF SUPERVISORS TO ADOPT THE DEVELOPMENT PLAN, DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT, AND TENTATIVE MAP
CEQA Status:
A Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was prepared for the Napa Pipe Project and certified by the Board of Supervisors on January 14, 2013. An Initial Study/Addendum (Addendum) to the County’s EIR was prepared by the City of Napa and adopted by the City of Napa City Council on July 22, 2014, concluding that the County’s EIR for the Napa Pipe Project adequately identified and analyzed the potential environmental effects of the City providing municipal services to and potential annexation of the Napa Pipe Project site. Prior to taking action to recommend Board of Supervisors adoption of ordinances and resolutions regarding the actions requested below, the Planning Commission will make recommended CEQA findings to document the reasons why the County has determined that the EIR and Addendum provide coverage for the proposed actions and that additional environmental review, in the form of a subsequent or supplemental EIR, is unnecessary prior to approval of the Development Agreement, Development Plan, Design Guidelines, and Tentative Map.

Request:
That the Planning Commission recommend to the Board of Supervisors approval a Development Agreement, a Development Plan, Design Guidelines and a Tentative Map associated with development of the following ("the Napa Pipe Project"): (1) 700 dwelling units (up to 945 units with State required density bonus); (2) a 150-unit continuing care retirement center for seniors; (3) 40,000 square feet of neighborhood serving retail uses; (4) 10,000 square feet of office; (5) a 150-room hotel with supporting uses, (6) a 154,000 square foot membership warehouse store (such as a Costco) with a gas station; (7) publicly accessible and privately-maintained parks and open space; (8) community facilities/farm; (9) publicly accessible and privately-maintained roads; and (10) infrastructure. The Tentative Map would subdivide the site into 70 lots. The Development Agreement also vests development rights on portions of the site east of the railroad tracks zoned I:AC for 90,000 sf. ft. of office and 75,000 sf. ft. of light industrial, R&D and warehouse uses, but provides that development shall be subject to subsequent discretionary approvals, if applicable, by the local agency including all applicable laws and regulations that are in effect at the time of issuance of applicable building permits. The Napa Pipe Project is proposed on a 154 acre site located at 1025 Kaiser Road, Napa, approximately ¼ mile west of State Highway 121 and ¼ mile north of State Highway 29 (APN’s: 046-400-030 & 046-412-005). The Napa River adjoins the west side of the site. The site is bisected by railroad tracks running north-south.

Staff Recommendation: Conduct a public hearing and (1) recommend that the Board of Supervisors make findings pursuant to CEQA, including adoption of a mitigation monitoring and reporting program (2) recommend that the Board of Supervisors adopt an ordinance approving the Development Agreement (3) recommend that the Board of Supervisors adopt an ordinance approving the Development Plan ; and (4) recommend that the Board of Supervisors adopt a resolution approving the Tentative Map.
