AI Contract Overview

Aemetis Biogas LLC is seeking to rezone a 1.9-acre undveloped parcel in Ceres, California from General Agriculture to Planned Development to construct a private Renewable Natural Gas fueling station exclusively for its existing fleet operators. The facility will feature a 2,100-square-foot fuel canopy with two CNG dispensers, cardlock access controlled by employee credentials, and 24/7 operations. Up to 40 trucks could theoretically be accommodated daily, though initial operations are projected to involve no more than seven daily deliveries, with ten parking stalls designated for RNG trailers—only three of which are expected to be onsite at any time, primarily empty or temporarily stored after refueling. One trailer will remain onsite permanently to supply fuel to the dispensers and will be periodically transported to the Aemetis Biogas facility on APN 045-026-039 for refueling. No restrooms or utility buildings are planned, and access will be via a new driveway off Jessup Road, with a second exit approximately 285 feet from the intersection with East Keyes Road. The site will be enclosed by a seven-foot chain-link fence with privacy slats and landscaped with deciduous trees along Jessup Road and evergreens along the other boundaries. A storm drainage basin is proposed along East Keyes Road, and 12 pole-mounted lights will illuminate the property. Two 48-square-foot identification signs will be installed on the east and west sides of the fuel canopy. Two employees will regularly access the site, and no public services or facilities will be provided.

Full Description

Request to amend the zoning designation of a 1.9± acre parcel from General Agriculture (A-2-10 UT) to Planned Development in order to allow for the development of a private Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) fueling station on-site to only serve existing fleet operators of Aemetis Biogas. The proposed fueling station will include a 2,100± square-foot fuel canopy with two compressed natural gas (CNG) dispensers. Proposed hours of operation are 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The access gates to the facility and fuel dispensers are cardlock operated. Two employees are expected to access the site regularly, with four truck deliveries estimated per-day to pick up and drop off trailers for refueling. The station can accommodate up to 40 trucks per-day, but only a maximum of seven per-day are currently anticipated. Parking stalls for ten RNG trailers are proposed, but only three trailers are expected to be parked on-site at a time. Trailers parked on-site will primarily be empty, but some trailers may be parked on-site temporarily after fueling. One RNG trailer will be regularly parked on-site to supply fuel to the dispensers. This trailer will occasionally be removed from the site to be refueled at the Aemetis Biogas facility on Assessors Parcel Number (APN) 045-026-039. The site is currently undeveloped. No utility building or on-site restrooms are proposed. Access to the site is proposed to be taken from County-maintained Jessup Road via a new driveway entrance approximately 425 feet from the intersection of Jessup Road and East Keyes Road and an exit driveway approximately 285 feet from this intersection. Screen landscaping consisting of deciduous trees along the Jessup Road frontage and evergreen trees along the East Keyes frontage and eastern property line is proposed, and the applicant has proposed enclosing the property with a seven-foot-tall chain-link fence with privacy slats. A storm drainage basin is proposed along the East Keyes Road frontage. 12 pole-mounted lights 25-feet in height are proposed to provide site illumination. A 48 square-foot identification sign is proposed along the east and west sides of the fuel canopy.
