Environmental Assessment No. T-6432/P23-02268/P23- 02269/P23-03234

The project involves the annexation of approximately 9.46 acres from the Kings River Conservation District and Fresno County Fire Protection District into the City of Fresno, accompanied by pre-zoning changes to convert roughly 4.18 acres from RA-NB to RS-5 and 4.80 acres from AL20 to RS-5/ANX, establishing medium-density residential use per City of Fresno standards. A vesting tentative tract map has been submitted to subdivide 3.97 acres into 44 single-family residential lots, with associated planned development permit applications seeking modifications to standard zoning requirements, including authorization for private streets, reduced minimum lot sizes and depths, decreased setbacks for garages and yards, and increased allowable lot coverage. All infrastructure improvements—including circulation roads, private streets, curbs, gutters, sidewalks, water and sewer utilities, and landscaping—are to be constructed by the developer to meet City of Fresno specifications, with sewer services provided directly by the City and water services managed by the Bakman Water District. Environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) is being conducted as an Environmental Assessment to evaluate potential impacts on air quality, water supply, traffic, land use, and cumulative effects, culminating in the preparation of a Mitigated Negative Declaration with defined mitigation measures. The lead agency for all approvals is the City of Fresno Planning and Development Department, with primary contact oversight provided by Planner III Juan Lara, and submissions are required to be made by August 28, 2025, via email, mail, or in-person delivery to the City Hall office in Fresno, California. No federal procurement elements, pricing data, contract types, or government contracting clauses are present; the activity is strictly a municipal land use and environmental compliance process tied to local planning and zoning regulations, with inspections and acceptance handled exclusively by City of Fresno officials against CEQA guidelines and municipal code standards.
