Board of Supervisors overturns planning commission denial of Faison gas station in Redwood Valley
Summary
Planning staff told the commission the Board of Supervisors overturned the Planning Commission's previous denial of a proposed Faison gas station in Redwood Valley; the Board approved the project 4–1 after the applicant agreed to traffic mitigations including median closure and acceleration/deceleration lanes.
Planning and Building Services Director Julia Crog informed the commission that the Board of Supervisors reviewed an appeal filed by the Faison corporation and overturned the Planning Commission’s earlier denial of a use permit and variance for a proposed gas station in the Redwood Valley area.
Director Julia Crog said the applicant agreed to perform required mitigations that were central to the Board’s decision, including closure of a median and construction of acceleration and deceleration lanes. Crog reported that the Board’s vote was 4–1, with Supervisor Williams dissenting.
Commissioners asked staff whether the traffic requirements would be implemented; staff confirmed the required traffic mitigations would be implemented and that easement concerns raised by adjoining neighbors appeared to have been addressed by the applicant, separate from county action. No formal action on the Faison project was taken by the Planning Commission at this meeting; the item was reported as part of the Director’s update.
