Staff said the proposal replaces a long‑vacant Perry’s site and that the design had undergone multiple iterations with planning staff and advisory committees to respond to neighborhood preservation area standards and floodplain constraints.

Planner Nate Dobernick told the commission the property sits about 350 feet from the nearest residential zoning edge and is inside the Victory Avenue Neighborhood Preservation Area, which requires that new commercial development avoid adverse noise, visual, air quality, health or safety impacts on abutting residential uses. The project includes a car wash tunnel, vacuum stations, trash enclosure and landscaping; the design preserves existing site grades so as not to increase flood risk along Union House Creek and retains permeable fencing where required for flood passage. Staff noted the project adds significantly more tree plantings and landscaping than presently exists on the parcel.

Key operational and environmental points in the staff presentation included: hours of operation limited by condition to 7 a.m. to 10 p.m.; interior tunnel sound‑attenuation measures and the long queuing lane designed to prevent vehicle stacking onto Stockton Boulevard; and a requirement that building and site lighting be turned off during non‑operating hours. Staff presented a simple noise attenuation analysis showing that levels from tunnel equipment at residential receptors would drop with distance below county noise thresholds. The project was found categorically exempt as an infill project under CEQA.

The applicant requested a special development permit to allow a sign that extends above the tunnel; staff explained the design rationale (functional tunnel height and machinery) and recommended approval of the limited sign deviation together with requirements that the sign be repainted to meet sign‑district standards and be architecturally integrated with the building.

The Design Review Advisory Committee recommended approval, noting the project’s durable materials and restrained color palette, and the South Sacramento CPAC recommended approval 4‑0. Commissioners asked about stormwater and wastewater handling; the applicant said tunnel water and wash chemicals would be collected, treated and routed for reuse or to the sanitary sewer system and that the site drainage has been designed with input from Department of Water Resources and county reviewers.

Vote: The commission approved the use permit, development plan and special development permit (sign deviation). Roll call recorded Commissioner Devlin — yes; Commissioner Verga — aye; Commissioner Borja — yes; Chair David Conklin — yes.

Planning staff will finalize conditions and proceed with permit processing and ministerial plan checks for construction drawings following approval.","The commission approved a use permit and development plan review for Waterfly Express at 7895 Stockton Boulevard, finding the design compatible with the Victory Avenue Neighborhood Preservation Area, adopting noise and operating‑hours limits and granting a limited sign deviation.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_47":92,"_49":93,"_51":94,"_53":95,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":96,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":97,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":56,"_73":56},6515647,"Planning commission approves 10‑lot subdivision at 8840 Phoenix Avenue with conditions addressing drainage, fencing and future design review",5258,1316000,6574000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3850055-59e4f6d487cbce7c7ab2f0ac1449c65a&start=1316&end=6574","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3850055-59e4f6d487cbce7c7ab2f0ac1449c65a/thumbnail_1316000.jpg","/articles/6515647/Sacramento-County/California/Planning-commission-approves-10lot-subdivision-at-8840-Phoenix-Avenue-with-conditions-addressing-drainage-fencing-and-future-design-review","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6515647-0cec126f5d3f51423f607d203a259c11/orig.mp4?Expires=1773736475&Signature=Xm0jkEFqVd8ME-0w6XLKmXN5pX7alhboZo7X7kPT6cXT6RCYNveXPWyRSgS1vhnNm4f1vLkEZnZNvTS9ydShfnSvDtDD6pp-Pxsq3JkvFlRrDtp5X1PT~V5l8BJIxOfmm-V5mNuBRFDi6UTep-nLvopmOGwii-E8zeb1mu6ZwG1UmrJ~sXqnQ3V-fO1spAbxpM~ETpMARF-hG5Z7r98BLlnJg7cZg65EQ3GHrpcUMs6KaKlQGG~3iiZd6QtC7~UlGcd-qbJ5b7xX0ddSFzOW9QbWLFNdPyXSRjlkLUaAtCjAQTAdCfoe-NrZ-h~5ZwLAi8s3dosNlb3GRIbvkvbs0g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Sacramento County Planning Commission on June 9 approved a tentative subdivision map to divide two parcels at 8840 Phoenix Avenue into 10 residential lots, subject to conditions addressing drainage, tree removal mitigation, frontage improvements and additional design review for specific lots.

Commissioners said the project would create housing opportunities but required further protections for adjacent homeowners and technical requirements related to drainage and tree replacement.

The project site comprises two parcels totaling 3.54 acres in the Fair Oaks community. Planning staff said the site now contains two abandoned houses and a shed and that the requested entitlements included a tentative subdivision map, a special development permit to allow a private cul‑de‑sac (deviation from public street frontage standards) and design review to ensure compliance with county design guidelines. Staff recommended adoption of a mitigated negative declaration after public review and inclusion of mitigation measures addressing biological resources, drainage and tree replacement.

Staff presented a preliminary grading and drainage plan showing two stormwater detention basins and swales intended to capture runoff from the new lots; Sacramento County Department of Water Resources had previously approved a Level 3 drainage study and conditioned the project to require a Level 4 drainage study prior to improvement or grading plan approval. Environmental Management conditioned connection to public water and sewer. Planning staff also presented a tree exhibit showing 103 trees on site, with 37 proposed for removal; of those, 13 were protected oaks rated in poor or fair condition in the arborist report. The project includes mitigation measures and replacement requirements for both protected trees and nonnative tree canopy.

Public comment focused on Lot 6, which borders existing residences to the south. A neighbor, Tom Zlotkowski, urged additional review of Lot 6’s buildability, privacy impacts and potential retaining walls; he requested follow‑up review of that lot’s future building permits. Applicants Anne Sedgwick and Joseph Maroney said they were willing to work with neighbors and noted final home designs are not yet proposed. Planning staff noted Condition 8 already requires a staff‑level (non‑discretionary) design review for resultant parcels that propose retaining walls and said that requirement could be clarified to explicitly reference Lot 6.

After deliberation the commission approved the tentative map and associated permits with the following notable changes and clarifications: (1) instead of requiring immediate construction of Class A frontage improvements (curb, gutter and sidewalk) along the site’s Phoenix Avenue frontage, the commission required the applicant to enter a recorded deferred street frontage improvement agreement with the county (a contractual recording obligating future construction rather than immediate installation); (2) the commission amended Condition 8 to explicitly require non‑discretionary design review for Lot 6 and any resultant lots that require retaining walls prior to issuance of building permits; and (3) the commission asked staff to require perimeter screening (shade/screen trees) where feasible to address privacy concerns, subject to engineering constraints such as drainage swales and other site limitations.

Commissioners and staff emphasized that non‑discretionary design review is a staff‑level check against county development standards and design guidelines, not a public discretionary hearing, but that it would include review by the design review administrator and the county landscape architect and could require additional mitigation such as fencing or landscaping where standards support it. Staff reiterated that the map approval does not authorize building footprints; future building permits will be reviewed under the zoning code and the conditions adopted tonight.

Vote: The commission approved the project. The roll call recorded Commissioner Devlin — yes; Commissioner Verga — aye; Commissioner Verhaag — yes; Chair David Conklin — yes.

The commission also adopted the mitigated negative declaration and mitigation monitoring and reporting program and approved the special development permit and findings of design compliance as conditioned.

The commission instructed staff to prepare the final documents reflecting the amended Condition 8 language and the deferred‑improvement agreement requirement so they are recorded with the final map.","The Sacramento County Planning Commission approved a tentative map to subdivide 3.54 acres at 8840 Phoenix Avenue into 10 lots, imposing conditions including a recorded deferred frontage-improvement agreement, additional non‑discretionary design review for Lot 6 and lots requiring retaining walls, and perimeter screening where feasible.","actionData","errors"]
