Planning commission approves two-parcel tentative map (P-2407) for vacant commercial site in Weaverville
Summary
The commission found Tentative Parcel Map P-2407 exempt from CEQA under the common-sense exemption and approved a two-parcel subdivision for future commercial development at the State Highway 299/Lancash Gulch Road intersection in Weaverville.
The Trinity County Planning Commission on Feb. 20 voted to approve tentative parcel map P-2407, a two-parcel subdivision of a 2.06-acre commercial-zoned site at the southeast corner of State Highway 299 and Lancash Gulch Road in Weaverville.
Bella Hedke, senior planner for the county’s planning division, presented the staff report. Hedke said the applicant, the Carrington Company, and its agent, Lehman and Associates Consulting, proposed to divide the 2.06-acre lot into approximately 1.11-acre and 0.95-acre parcels. The site is undeveloped apart from driveway access; no specific development was proposed with the map.
Staff recommended the commission find the project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under Guidelines section 15061(b)(3), the “common sense” exemption. The staff recommendation also included adoption of Resolution PC 2025-02 and approval of tentative parcel map P-2407 for future commercial use.
Commission discussion touched briefly on a question about conditions in the attachment that reference access-road construction; staff clarified that no building permits or development plans were currently filed and that construction conditions would apply when and if future development proposals are submitted. After opening and immediately closing public comment (no speakers), the commission moved, seconded and approved the staff recommendation. A roll-call recorded the vote as unanimous in favor.
The approval includes the CEQA exemption finding and adoption of the resolution referenced in staff materials. The applicant was not present at the hearing; SHN provided remote technical support during report preparation and review.
