DISCUSSION:
Executive Summary: A petition requesting the Board accept for processing an applicant-initiated General Plan Amendment and Zone Reclassification. The amendments are needed to enable a Lot Line Adjustment in the Fickle Hill area between APN 500-081-002, owned by the Green Diamond Resource Company, and APN 500-071-012, owned by Nielen and Elicia Stander. The Lot Line Adjustment seeks to adjust the boundary of the Stander property to incorporate development inadvertently built on the Green Diamond property, but accessory to the residential uses of the Stander property. Changes to land use and zoning are only requested on an approximately 0.2-acre portion of the Green Diamond property (APN 500-081-002).

Location
The project site is located approximately 2 miles east of Arcata in the Fickle Hill area, on the north side of Fickle Hill Road, approximately 450 feet southeast of the intersection of Fickle Hill Road and Simmons Lane, on the property known as 3100 Fickle Hill Road.
