10 Kemp Court Two-Lot Minor Subdivision (County File CDMS24-00014)

The 10 Kemp Court Two-Lot Minor Subdivision project, identified by County File CDMS24-00014, involves the subdivision of a 1.89-acre single-family residential property in Alamo, California, into two parcels: Parcel A (52,976 sq. ft.) and Parcel B (29,262 sq. ft.). The scope of work includes the partial demolition and remodeling of the existing residence on Parcel A and the construction of a new single-family residence on Parcel B. Infrastructure improvements consist of a new private access road replacing an existing driveway, an emergency vehicle turnaround compliant with Fire Code, and the installation of a low impact development flow-through treatment planter to manage 12,423 square feet of new impervious surface area. The project requires the removal of 14 code-protected trees and is subject to review and approval by the Contra Costa County Public Works Department and the Department of Conservation and Development. Environmental compliance is managed through a Mitigated Negative Declaration and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program. Key requirements include a geotechnical report reviewed by the County Peer Review Geologist, adherence to Bay Area Air District dust emission standards, and the implementation of cultural resource safeguards, such as on-site archaeological education and a 30-yard work stoppage buffer if materials are uncovered. Construction activities are restricted to Monday through Friday, 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M., and are prohibited on state and federal holidays. The local public review period for the project is scheduled from December 8 to December 27, 2025, with Joseph W. Lawlor Jr. serving as the lead agency contact for Contra Costa County.
