Bayside area
A Coastal Development Permit (CDP) for the small portion of the project that is located within the County’s jurisdiction of the Coastal Zone. The project would improve motorized and non-motorized transportation and user safety in Bayside. The Project would repave Old Arcata Road, include bike lanes on both sides of the roadway alignment, and improve and extend an existing shared use walkway along the west side of Old Arcata Road from approximately 600 feet south of the Buttermilk Road Roundabout and extending south to approximately 300 feet beyond the Jacoby Creek Road intersection. The total Project length is approximately one mile. The portion of the project within both the Coastal Zone and the County’s jurisdiction is located at the southern end of the project, is approximately 530 feet in length, and includes a portion of the proposed roundabout. As a Responsible Agency, the Humboldt County Planning Commission will consider the final EIR (SCH #2021010176) that the city of Arcata approved, per §15096 of the State CEQA Guidelines.

Adopt the resolution to 1) find that the Planning Commission has considered the EIR, including the environmental effects of the project, and 2) make all of the required findings for approval of the Coastal Development Permit and 3) approve the Old Arcata Road Coastal Development Permit as recommended by staff subject to the recommended conditions.
