Grading Permit GRAD2023-00164 is a project managed by the San Luis Obispo County Department of Planning and Building for a residence located at 7510 Los Osos Valley Road in San Luis Obispo, California. The scope of work involves a Major Grading Permit to facilitate the remodel of a single-family residence, which includes renovating 5,623 square feet of conditioned space and converting 900 square feet of unconditioned space into living area. Additional construction elements include a 550-square-foot attached covered entry and 535 linear feet of retaining wall. The grading activities will disturb approximately 2.02 acres of a 206-acre parcel, involving roughly 2,900 cubic yards of cut and fill. The project is designated within the Agriculture land use category and has been granted a Notice of General Rule Exemption under CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3), as no significant environmental impacts are anticipated. All work must comply with County Code, General Plan, and Area Plan standards. A critical requirement is the adherence to County Code Section 22.10.040 regarding archaeological resources; if any materials or human remains are discovered during construction, work must cease immediately, and the Department and County Coroner must be notified. The project is associated with applicant William Szymczak and Division Manager Eric Hughes.
