Title

Figas Coastal Development Permit

Record Number PLN-2019-15399 (filed 2/20/2019)

Assessor’s Parcel Number: 505-192-004

Arcata Area

 

A Coastal Development Permit is being requested to authorize the installation of security fencing along the perimeter of an approximately 20-acre parcel.  Though primarily vacant at this time, since at least 1955 eastern portions of the property have hosted a series of industrial uses following establishment of a lumber mill within this area.  The property has had problems with unauthorized occupancy, trespass, and arson during past years, resulting in neighborhood complaints about garbage, drug use, and illegal camping.  New six-foot-tall fencing is proposed to be installed along the southern and western perimeters of the property and existing fencing along the northern and eastern portions of the parcel would be raised to 6 feet in height using barbed wire.  The proposed fencing is being requested to help curtail these activities and allow for ongoing monitoring and prevention.  The proposal is also consistent with terms specified under an executed compliance agreement between the landowner and the County of Humboldt.

Adopt the resolution to 1) find the project exempt from environmental review pursuant to Sections 15301 and 15303 of the State CEQA Guidelines, 2) make all of the required findings for approval of the Coastal Development Permit and 3) approve the Figas project subject to the recommended conditions.
