Council approves three‑lot tentative parcel map at Morgan Drive
Summary
The council adopted Resolution 2025‑35, approving Tentative Parcel Map 20989 to subdivide a 2.54‑acre vacant parcel at 193 Morgan Drive into three parcels (0.67, 0.68 and 1.19 acres); staff said no development is proposed now and CEQA common‑sense exemption applies.
The Needles City Council on Aug. 12 adopted Resolution 2025‑35 approving Tentative Parcel Map 20989, which subdivides a 2.54‑acre vacant property at 193 Morgan Drive (APN 65031808) into three lots intended to facilitate future residential development.
Planning staff (Irene Romero) and the project representative said the proposal meets R‑2 zoning standards for parcel size, width and access and that the application seeks only subdivision approval — no construction or development is authorized by the resolution. Staff said all review departments found no outstanding issues and recommended conditions of approval such as recordation within 36 months, stormwater and utility compliance, and fire‑safety confirmation. Staff also said the subdivision qualified for a CEQA ‘‘common sense’’ exemption (Guidelines section 15061(b)(3)).
Council members moved and seconded the recommendation; the council recorded affirmative roll‑call votes and adopted the resolution. Staff said any future construction on the new parcels will require separate planning review and permits.
