Issuance of General Lease – Recreational and Protective Structure Use

The California State Lands Commission is authorizing the issuance of a General Lease for Recreational and Protective Structure Use, identified as File Ref. A5211, Item 25. This lease pertains to filled and unfilled sovereign land located in the Napa River, specifically adjacent to 1736 Milton Road in Napa County. The authorization covers an existing dock, appurtenant facilities, and a levee area that have not been previously authorized by the Commission. The lease is set to begin on February 1, 2026, and will remain in effect for a term of 10 years. The project is being proposed by private landowner Martin William Lai and has been granted a Notice of Exemption. Under Class 1, Existing Facilities, the project is categorically exempt because it involves existing structures and is not expected to cause physical environmental changes or significant environmental effects. While the specific contract value and individual pricing schedules are not provided, the scope is strictly defined by the recreational and protective use of the specified maritime structures and land area within the Napa River.
