Zone Modification No. PP-ZM-25-0010

Zone Modification No. PP-ZM-25-0010 is a land use action by the City of Bakersfield regarding Vesting Tentative Tract Map 7334, located at the northeast corner of South Allen Road and Panama Lane in Bakersfield, California. The project seeks to modify specific zoning requirements within the R-2 Small Lot Single-Unit Dwelling zone to allow for reduced setbacks. Specifically, the modification requests a 20-foot agricultural setback where the Bakersfield Municipal Code typically requires 50 feet when adjoining agricultural property, and a 9-foot front yard setback where a minimum of 15 feet is generally required for residential lots. This action is categorized as a regulatory zoning modification rather than a procurement contract. It has been granted a Notice of Exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act as a Minor Alteration to Land Use Limitations. The process is being managed by the City of Bakersfield Development Services Department, with Louis A. Ramirez serving as the Associate Planner and Isabella Herrera as the project applicant.
