Client: Davidon Homes Lead Agency: City of Petaluma Date Completed: In Progress The project site consists of two parcels located at the western side of the intersection of D Street and Windsor Drive, at the southwestern edge of the City of Petaluma. The two parcels consist of one six-acre parcel on the north side of Windsor Drive, and a 52-acre parcel on the south side of Windsor Drive. While the northern parcel is vacant, the southern parcel contains one single-family residence, several outbuildings, a barn and a stock pond. This parcel also contains several tributaries, wetlands and Kelly Creek. The site is characterized by rolling hills with grasslands, wetlands, and a mixture of native and non-native trees, including: Coast Live Oaks, Valley Oaks, Buckeyes and Bays, Blue Gum and Monterey Cypress. The proposed residential subdivision includes the development of 93 single-family homes. Approximately 35 acres of the project site would be developed with single-family home lots ranging in size from 10,000 to 47,955 square feet. The remaining 22 acres would become open space: 20 acres to the north and south of Kelly Creek, and 2.35 acres around the stock pond to preserve California Red-Legged frog habitat. Grading for the proposed project would require 305,000 cubic yards (CY) of cut material and 305,000 CY of fill. Cut slopes would reach a maximum of 35 feet whereas fill would reach a maximum of 32 feet. An estimated 35,000 cubic yards of landslide material would also have to be removed and replaced to depths ranging from six to 18 feet. Construction of the single-family homes would require approximately 30 months. The proposed project would require approval of a tentative subdivision map, rezoning from Agricultural to "Planned Unit Development" (PUD), and design review by the Site Plan and Architectural Review Committee (SPARC). Project approval would also require permits from and consultation with a variety of agencies such as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Regional Water Quality Control Board, California Department of Fish and Game, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. |
