General Plan Amendment and Rezone Application No. PLN2026-0010 – Gill RV and Boat Storage Facility

Request to amend the General Plan and zoning designation of an 8.79-acre parcel from Urban Transition and General Agriculture (A-2-10) to Planned Development to allow for the development of a recreational vehicle (RV) and boat storage facility. The RV and boat storage portion of the facility will include 197 graveled parking stalls for the storage of RV’s, trailers, and boats. Two driveways, for ingress and egress, will be developed providing access to Orange Avenue. A paved drive aisle is proposed around the interior of the site and the individual uncovered spaces are proposed to be graveled. A storm drain basin is proposed to be constructed at the northwest portion of the project site. The site will be enclosed by chain link perimeter fencing and security lighting with screening landscaping along the western and eastern property lines. Security lighting, comprised of eight individual freestanding security lights, 25-feet in height, are proposed to be installed throughout the parking area. The project will not include any covered spaces, office, or restroom facilities. The facility will be operated in conjunction with an existing RV & boat storage facility located within the City of Patterson, .5 miles of the project site. No employees will report directly to the project site and customer access to the site will be by a controlled access gate, allowing 24/7 access for customers. The applicant anticipates up to five customers accessing the site per-day. The applicant anticipates grading and installation of improvements associated with the project will be completed within one year of project approval. The project site is currently developed with a single-family dwelling and an unpermitted accessory dwelling unit (ADU), served by an existing well and private septic system, and accessory structures that will remain. Additionally, a previously approved communication facility is located on the parcel. With the exception of obtaining a building permit for the ADU, no other improvements for the residential or communication facility uses are proposed as part of the project. The project site is located within the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) adopted Sphere of Influence for the City of Patterson.
