Bar None Auction

The Bar None Auction project, identified by control number PLNP2023-00290, involves the development of approximately 47 acres in unincorporated Sacramento County, California, specifically at 6190 Bradshaw Road. The project aims to establish an online auction business facility designed for the storage and auctioning of surplus heavy equipment, commercial trucks, agricultural machinery, and industrial support items. The proposed infrastructure includes a 21,510-square-foot two-story office and reception building, a 12,800-square-foot industrial workshop for inspections and minor repairs, a guard kiosk, and a customer patio. The site will feature extensive paved areas for parking and vehicle access, a 30-acre graveled auction yard for track-equipped equipment, a 6.5-acre stormwater detention and retention area, a closed-cycle wash rack, and a large water tank. Operational logistics include standard weekday business hours and monthly online auctions held on the second Saturday of each month. Environmental assessments conducted by Sacramento County indicate that the project will proceed under a Mitigated Negative Declaration, concluding that no significant environmental effects are expected if specific mitigation measures are implemented. Key environmental considerations include the management of air quality and greenhouse gas emissions, stormwater drainage, and the protection of biological resources. Specifically, the project must address potential impacts on migratory birds and western burrowing owls, with requirements for habitat conservation and potential incidental take permits. Additionally, the site contains approximately 3.82 acres of seasonal wetlands that require careful management to ensure regulatory compliance. Construction and operational requirements include strict erosion and sediment controls, the use of orange construction fencing to limit ground disturbance, and adherence to air quality permits for fuel storage tanks. The applicant has provided an initial deposit of $9,400.00 to cover administrative and monitoring costs managed by the Sacramento County Office of Planning and Environmental Review.
