Commission approves use permit to replace nonconforming mobile home on East Yuba City parcel
Summary
The planning commission approved a use permit allowing replacement of a nonconforming mobile home at 4500 Sawtell Avenue with a 2,438-square-foot manufactured home; staff and Environmental Health said the existing septic system could serve the proposed house and the project qualifies for a CEQA exemption.
The Sutter County Planning Commission approved a use permit to replace an existing nonconforming mobile home at 4500 Sawtell Avenue (east of State Highway 99) with a 2,438-square-foot manufactured home.
Assistant planner Luis Enrique Hernandez explained the parcel is in the Employment Corridor zoning district and the existing mobile home qualifies as a nonconforming use. The application seeks to replace that structure; staff said the project meets criteria under the county’s zoning code and qualifies under the common-sense CEQA exemption. Environmental Health evaluated the septic system and determined the proposed three-bedroom home may use the existing septic until replacement is necessary.
Commissioners asked clarifying questions about the parcel acreage (transcript discussion referenced both 1.71 and 1.17 acres) and whether the project would create issues for future additional dwellings. Hernandez and staff reiterated that Environmental Health reviewed the site and that the parcel meets requirements described in the staff report.
No public opposition was recorded and the commission approved the use permit consistent with staff recommendations.
