NAPA VAULT STORAGE FACILIY - BARNSTABLE LTD, LLC/STORAGE TECH, LLC - USE PERMIT P14-00296-UP & TENTATIVE MAP P15-00298-TM

CEQA Status: Consideration and possible adoption of a Revised Mitigated Negative Declaration. According to the proposed Revised Mitigated Negative Declaration, the proposed project would have potentially significant effects on Biological Resources and Hydrology & Water Quality unless mitigation measures are adopted. The project site is not on any of the lists of hazardous waste sites enumerated under Government Code Section 65962.5.

Request: A request for approval of a use permit to allow the construction of 130 personal storage units and common area contained in 11 buildings, where 128 units are to be sold as individual storage condominium units. The request also includes approval a modification of Tentative Map #P09-00100-PM, to create 128 condominium storage units, one owner's common area, and one storage unit. The building area in total will be 152,348 sq.ft, concrete tilt-up construction, 26-35.3 feet in height, with an earth-toned pallet and stone accents. Frontage improvements include landscaping featuring trees, native plants, boulders and a 10' wide multi-use trail. In addition, seven restrooms, an RV dump station,13 parking stalls, an on-site waste disposal system, a new well and water system, and one 191,000 gallon fire protection water storage tank are proposed. The 63-foot wide driveway aisles will allow parking in front of each storage unit. Total site coverage would be 309,465 sq.ft. The site will be operated and maintained by an owners' association (OA) of 128 owners. No employees are proposed. There will be covenants, conditions, and restrictions recorded on the property and enforced by the OA. The project proposes to utilize the same setback from Suscol Creek as the originally approved project and thereby requests consideration of the same approved development exception to allow the 75-foot setback from Suscol Creek instead of the required 150-feet, with environmental enhancement of the site area within 75-feet of the creek.

The project is located on a 10.32-acre parcel on the south side of Soscol Ferry Road, approximately 1400 feet west of its intersection with Napa-Vallejo Highway (State Route 12/29) within the Napa Valley Business Park Specific Plan (NVBPSP), and a GI:AC (General Industrial: Airport Compatibility) zoning district. APN: 057-170-018;1055 Soscol Ferry Rd., Napa, CA 94558.

Staff Recommendation: Adopt the Revised Mitigated Negative Declaration and approve the Use Permit and Tentative Map with the proposed conditions of approval.
