Initial Study No. 8664 and Amendment Application No. 3878

The project involves a rezoning request for a 7.79-acre parcel located at the northeast corner of Valentine Avenue and Whitesbridge Road in Fresno, California, currently zoned AL-20 for limited agricultural use, to be reclassified to M-1(c) for light manufacturing with conditional uses. The proposed development includes a 22,000-square-foot office building, a 10,000-square-foot truck maintenance and service facility, a CNG/RNG fueling station, EV charging infrastructure, a truck wash station, and associated parking and utilities, all without residential components. The proposal also includes the vacation of Valentine Avenue, which forms the western boundary of the parcel. Environmental review under CEQA is underway with Initial Study No. 8664 and Amendment Application No. 3878, assessing impacts on hydrology, air quality, biological resources, greenhouse gas emissions, hazards, cultural resources, and geology. Key compliance standards include SJVAPCD Regulation VIII and Rule 8021 for fugitive dust, California Building Code Title 24 for energy efficiency, Fresno County stormwater and grading regulations, and the Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map. The project sponsor, Joseph Kalpakoff, is responsible for ensuring adherence to all regulatory requirements, while the Fresno County Department of Public Works and Planning serves as the lead agency overseeing environmental review and approval. Public comment is accepted via email or mail between July 24, 2026, and August 24, 2026, with primary contact information provided through Planner Alyce Alvarez. No contract values, pricing, payment terms, delivery schedules, or federal acquisition clauses are included, as this is a land use and environmental compliance matter under state law, not a federal procurement contract.
