COR25-0001 GAMBARDELLA

The project involves a ministerial amendment to the recorded parcel map for three parcels on Cummings Road in unincorporated Butte County, California, correcting the designated size of each homesite from 0.25 acres to 0.5 acres by relocating the boundary 92 feet back from the front property line. The affected parcels are identified by APNs 040-650-011, 040-650-013, and 040-650-014, and the adjustment does not alter land use, density, or the total number of parcels. The amendment is processed under a Certificate of Corrections designation and qualifies as a categorical exemption under CEQA Section 15305, classifying it as a minor land use alteration that does not require environmental review beyond administrative verification. The applicant, Mark Gambardella, submitted the request as a private individual, with no federal entity identifiers, socioeconomic certifications, or contractual obligations beyond payment of local administrative fees, which include a $50 county handling fee and a $2,916.75 Mitigated Negative Declaration fee. The approval process is non-competitive, administered by the Butte County Department of Development Services, with final authority vested in the Zoning Administrator. Documentation required for approval includes a Notice of Exemption, a CDFW No Effect Determination, a certified exemption finding, and proof of fee payment, all submitted in physical format to the County Clerk’s Office and Planning Division by the September 5, 2025 deadline. The project site is located approximately 20 feet west of Cummings Lane along a county-maintained road, and the corrected map will be recorded upon compliance with all procedural and environmental exemption criteria. Payments are to be made payable to The County of Butte and accepted via cash, check, or credit, with no federal contracting mechanisms, electronic invoicing, or federal appropriation data involved. There is no contractor, no performance period defined, no delivery schedule, and no federal acquisition regulatory framework applicable; the entire process operates solely under local land use authority and California environmental law.
