U-Haul Moving and Storage Project

The U-Haul Moving and Storage Project, identified as PLP19-0042, involves the redevelopment of a 2.8-acre parcel at 3601 Santa Rosa Avenue in Santa Rosa, California. Managed by the Sonoma County Permit and Resource Management Department, the project requires the demolition of three existing buildings to make way for a new five-level self-storage facility totaling 116,600 square feet with 1,063 units and a single-level retail frontage building of approximately 4,578 square feet. Additional site improvements include a 28-space surface parking lot, landscaping, and necessary utility connections. The project has undergone environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act, resulting in a Notice of Determination on June 2, 2026, stating that the project will not have a significant environmental effect. Construction is scheduled to span approximately 22 months, beginning in May 2026 and concluding in March 2028. Key compliance requirements include adherence to the California Fire Code, ADA-compliant restrooms on multiple levels, and the maintenance of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. The project is subject to the South Santa Rosa Area Plan and the Highway 101 Scenic Corridor guidelines.
