Tentative Parcel Map Case No. 6072 (Case No. Pl25-0061)

The 14.35-acre parcel located at 1000 Burnham Road in Ojai, California, is being legalized through the approval of a Tentative Parcel Map and subsequent recording of a Parcel Map under Ventura County Subdivision Ordinance No. 1787, as in effect on March 14, 1975, pursuant to California Subdivision Map Act Section 66499.35(b). The applicant, Progressive Environmental Industries, Inc., is not proposing any reconfiguration of lot lines or new development; instead, the action formalizes a parcel that has been used for animal husbandry for over four decades and agriculture for the past four years, with established access via a 30-foot-wide private driveway to Burnham Road. The project relies on vested rights to bypass current zoning and environmental regulations, allowing compliance with 1975 standards instead of modern North County Zoning Ordinance requirements. Water service is contingent upon annexation into the Ventura River Water District, and wastewater service depends on annexation into the Ojai Valley Sanitation District, both subject to approval by the Local Agency Formation Commission. No physical improvements or vegetation clearance beyond historical agricultural use are proposed, and such activities are exempt from permitting requirements under local ordinances. The project qualifies for categorical exemptions under the California Environmental Quality Act as an existing facility and a minor land use action with no significant environmental impact. Approval of the final map requires successful annexation by LAFCo and filing with the Ventura County Clerk-Recorder’s Office, with a filing fee of $50 already paid. The submission is administered by Ventura County’s Resource Management Agency, Planning Division, with Kristina Boero as the primary point of contact. No federal procurement elements, contract clauses, pricing, or deliverable schedules apply, as this is purely a municipal land use entitlement process governed by state and county regulations.
