Minor Modification No. MIM 25-049, Israel Rossiter Construction

Minor Modification No. MIM 25-049, associated with Israel Rossiter Construction, authorizes an update to the site plan for an existing dairy facility located at 15605 Avenue 208, Strathmore, California. The primary objective of this modification is to allow for the addition of a storage building to the established facility. The project site is situated within the AE-40 Exclusive Agriculture zone under the Rural Valley Lands Plan and carries a Valley Agriculture land use designation. This action updates the site plan previously approved under Special Use Permit No. 21-122 (AA) and covers specific parcels identified as APNs 196-030-007, 008, and 013. The Tulare County Resource Management Agency serves as the lead agency for this project, with oversight provided by Chief Planner Gary Mills and Project Planner David Alexander. The project has been granted a Notice of Exemption from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review based on the Common Sense Rule and CEQA Guidelines Class 3 Section 15303 for the construction of small structures, as it is determined that the addition will not result in significant environmental impacts. The modification was formally signed and approved by county officials in October and November 2025.
