Permit ACO25-0125

Permit ACO25-0125 involves the replanting of 28.64 acres of vineyard located at 3443 Hwy. 116 in Sebastopol, Sonoma County, California. This project is classified as a ministerial action under the Sonoma County Department of Agriculture/Weights & Measures. The development is required to adhere strictly to the ministerial standards established in Chapter 36 of the Sonoma County Code and must comply with the Best Management Practices and Technical Report Guidelines for New Vineyard and Orchard Development, Vineyard and Orchard Replanting, and Agricultural Grading and Drainage (VESCO). The Sonoma County Agricultural Commissioner has verified that the site development meets the necessary ministerial criteria for approval as set forth in Sonoma County Code 36.02.070. A. The project is governed by a Notice of Exemption under Public Resources Code Sections 21083 and 21110, confirming that no changes to existing ministerial standards or best management practices are being sought. The notice was posted on December 12, 2025, and is scheduled to remain posted through January 12, 2026. Administrative oversight is provided by Andy Casarez, the Agriculture and Vineyard Conservation Coordinator, with Jacob Bricker serving as the Project Site Manager. As this is a land-use permit exemption rather than a competitive procurement solicitation, no specific contract pricing, evaluation factors, or federal acquisition regulation clauses are applicable.
