Planning staff reports progress on Sonic site: water connection, sidewalk, steel framing and pending hydrant testing
Summary
Staff told the Fillmore Planning Commission that the Sonic project has completed several public improvements and is preparing to pour foundations; Caltrans permit issues remain for highway work.
City staff updated the Fillmore Planning Commission on progress at the Sonic development site, saying the project has completed key public improvements and is moving toward foundation work but still has outstanding items under a Caltrans permit.
Brian, a city planning staff member, told commissioners the contractor "finished their water connection and have their hydrant in," and that the contractor has installed the sidewalk on Orange Grove. He said the steel framing had passed inspection and that the contractor was preparing to pour the foundation. Brian added that the contractor will complete hydrant testing and then proceed with final highway resurfacing under a Caltrans permit.
Commissioners raised concerns about a rough section of highway where steel plates had been used during construction and the noise and vibration for drivers. Brian said resurfacing and refilling work is tied to the contractor’s completion of hydrant testing and the Caltrans permit process.
Ending: Staff said they would continue to monitor the project and coordinate with Southern California Edison and Caltrans as needed; no formal vote or action was taken by the commission on the Sonic update.
