Tentative Parcel Map No. PPM 26-012

Tentative Parcel Map No. PPM 26-012 is a project requested by Janet Colson Kaiser and managed by Lane Engineers, Incorporated, to divide 91.75 gross acres of land into two separate parcels. The division will create Proposed Parcel 1, consisting of 4.42 gross acres, and Proposed Parcel 2, consisting of 87.33 gross acres. This action is intended to establish a homesite parcel for an existing single-family dwelling within the AE-40 Exclusive Agricultural Zone, which typically requires a 40-acre minimum. The project is located at APN 174-160-021 on the northwest corner of Avenue 198 and Road 96 in an unincorporated area south of Tulare, California. The County of Tulare Resource Management Agency serves as the lead agency for the project. Under the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 and State CEQA Guidelines, the project has been granted a Notice of Exemption based on the Common Sense exemption, as no significant environmental impacts are expected. Key administrative contacts include Chief Planner Gary Mills, Environmental Planner Jessica Wills, and Project Planner Frances T. Garcia.
