Planning Commission grants 3-year extension for temporary mobile home at 3168 Airport Road
Summary
The Placer Road Planning Commission on Jan. 7 approved a 36-month extension for a temporary manufactured home permit while the applicant demolishes and rebuilds the primary dwelling; staff recommended the extension after reviewing demolition and building-permit activity.
The Placer Road Planning Commission voted Jan. 7 to extend a temporary manufactured-home permit for the property at 3168 Airport Road until Dec. 5, 2027, allowing the applicant to keep a 55-by-12-foot temporary unit on site while the principal residence is demolished and rebuilt.
Staff told the commission the temporary mobile home permit (TMH 23-01) was originally approved Dec. 5, 2023, and that the applicant submitted a timely extension request on Nov. 18, 2024. Planning staff said building permits for demolition and reconstruction (permits 22361 and 22360) and a temporary-home permit (BP 2024-705) are active, and that demolition is anticipated in March or April 2025 with reconstruction estimated to finish by 2027. Based on that schedule, staff recommended a 36-month extension so the permit would expire Dec. 5, 2027.
The applicant, who described labor-intensive site conditions and rock removal, told the commission that moving the electrical service and completing a foundation wall are prerequisites to occupying the temporary home, and that “That is our goal” for being in the unit by March or April 2025. Commissioners said they had observed progress on site and that unexpected delays (weather, utility scheduling) justify the three-year extension in this case.
The commission adopted findings that the project remains categorically exempt from environmental review under CEQA section 15303 and approved the requested extension subject to the original conditions of approval. The decision is subject to the standard 10-day appeal period.
The approval does not change any original conditions of the December 2023 decision and allows the applicant to seek an additional extension later if necessary.
Votes at the meeting were recorded by roll call: Commissioner Friend — Aye; Chair Keeney — Aye; Commissioner Lepper — Aye; Commissioner Smith — Aye. The motion passed 4-0.
