LANDMARK PRESERVATION ORDINANCE UPDATE, COUNTY-INITIATED ZONING TEXT AMENDMENTS P10-00377-ORD CEQA Status: In accordance with CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines (Sections 15168), the County is proposing to use the program level Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the General Plan Update (SCH# 2005102088, certified June 2008) as the EIR for the Landmark Preservation Ordinance Update. As discussed in a memorandum and checklist (initial study) dated August 15, 2011 and a supplemental memorandum dated November 4, 2011, this approach is consistent with CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines because (1) the proposed update is within the scope of the General Plan approved in 2008, and (2) the program EIR prepared for the General Plan Update adequately describes the activity for purposes of CEQA. In addition, (3) the County has not identified any changes in the General Plan, changes in circumstances under which the General Plan Update was adopted, or new information of substantial importance that would necessitate subsequent environmental review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162. A copy of the General Plan Update EIR may be reviewed during business hours at the offices of the Department of Conservation, Development and Planning, 1195 Third Street in Napa or on the County’s website at http://www.countyofnapa.org/Planning/.
Request: Report to the Board of Supervisors regarding the Board's requested modifications to an ordinance recommended for their adoption on September 7, 2011, and recommend adoption of two County-sponsored ordinances. The first ordinance would designate a list of six "landmarks of special significance" which may be reused for their historic use(s) if their owner(s) obtain a use permit following site-specific environmental review. The second ordinance would allow the same listed "landmarks of special significance" to be reused for a compatible new use under the same conditions. As proposed, possible commercial uses would be limited. Historic uses could not include illegal uses such as gambling, and compatible new uses could only include uses that are permitted in the County's Commercial Limited (CL) and Commercial Neighborhood (CN) zoning districts. Both ordinances would implement an action item included in the General Plan Update of 2008.
