EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Annexation Application No. 2025-01, General Plan Amendment Application No. 2025-01, Rezone Application No. 2025-01 (Ordinance No. 2025-004), Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map No. 6497, and Environmental Assessment No. 2025-05 were filed with the Community Development Department by D.R. Horton CA3, Inc. and pertain to the annexation of approximately 39.7 gross acres into the City of Reedley, a general plan amendment to designate the project site in its entirety as Low Density Residential, a prezoning of the annexation area consistent with proposed General Plan Amendment Application No. 2025-01, and the subdivision of 33.98+ acres of land to accommodate future development of single-unit homes.

The proposed project includes the development of 166 single-unit homes on lots with varying sizes. The size of the proposed lots will vary from a minimum of 5,002 square feet to a maximum of approximately 11,111 square feet. The average lot size is approximately 5,561 square feet.

The proposed project also includes one 2-acre storm drain basin and seven (7) outlots. Two access points are proposed for the project area, the first access point will be located on South Buttonwillow Avenue and the second access point is proposed to be located on East North Avenue.

The proposed project is consistent with the City of Reedley General Plan Update 2030 goals and policies and the Reedley Municipal Code. Annexation Application No. 2025-01 is consistent with the Memorandum of Understanding between the County of Fresno and the City of Reedley.

The Subdivision Map Act (California Government Code Section 66400 et. seq.) findings can be made to approve Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map No. 6497. Staff has determined that a Mitigated Negative Declaration is appropriate for the project, through Environmental Assessment 2025-05. In accordance with State CEQA Guidelines, the appropriate posting, filing and noticing of such has taken place.

Staff presented Environmental Assessment 2025-05, Annexation Application No. 2025-01, General Plan Amendment Application No. 2025-01, Rezone Application No. 2025-01 (Ordinance No. 2025-004), and Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map No. 6497 to the Planning Commission for their consideration, to receive public comment, and to make a recommendation to the City Council. Planning Commission recommended approval of the entitlement

applications and accompanying environmental assessment. Rezone Application No. 2025-01 is being introduced for first reading as Ordinance No. 2025-004.

If granted, City Council’s approval of Annexation No. 2025-01 would authorize City staff to submit an annexation application to the Fresno Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo).

Upon completion of the annexation process and the general plan amendment process, the proposed project site would have a General Plan land use designation of Low Density Residential and an accompanying zone district designation of R-1-6 (Low Density Residential).

If first reading is held and approved, Ordinance No. 2025-004 would be resubmitted to the City Council for second reading and final adoption at their next scheduled regular meeting to be held on December 9, 2025.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Annexation Application No. 2025-01, General Plan Amendment Application No. 2025-01, Rezone Application No. 2025-01 (Ordinance No. 2025-004), Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map No. 6497, and Environmental Assessment No. 2025-05 pertain to the annexation of approximately 39.7 gross acres in the City of Reedley to facilitate the subdivision of 33.98+ acres of land and proposed street dedications and improvements. The proposed land subdivision is to accommodate future development of single-unit homes. The following applications were filed with the Community Development Department by D.R. Horton CA3, Inc.:

Annexation Application No. 2025-01 pertains to the annexation of approximately 39.7 acres into the City of Reedley. The proposed annexation area includes APN 370-040-10, 370-040- 22, 370-040-23, 370-40-13 and existing right-of-way contiguous to parcel boundaries. The proposed annexation is within the City of Reedley’s adopted Sphere of Influence, is adjacent to the existing City of Reedley City Limits on three sides, and promotes orderly growth and development.

General Plan Amendment Application No. 2025-01 pertains to the reclassification of a 4- acre portion of a parcel (APN 370-040-10) that currently has a High Density Residential General Plan Land Use Designation. The proposed General Plan Amendment would reclassify the portion of the parcel from High Density Residential (15.1-29 dwelling units per acre) to Low Density Residential (4-8 dwelling units per acre). If General Plan Amendment Application No.

2025-01 is approved, then the entire parcel (APN 370-040-10) would have a Low Density Residential General Plan Land Use Designation (4-8 dwelling units per acre).

Rezone Application No. 2025-01 pertains to the reclassification of approximately 39.7 acres consisting of four parcels (APN 370-040-10, 370-040-22, 370-040-23, 370-40-13) from agricultural use (AL20) within Fresno County to the R-1-6 (Low Density Residential) zone district upon annexation into Reedley City Limits. The proposed zoning designation is consistent with the proposed general plan amendment as well as the existing Low Density Residential General Plan Planned Land Use Designation of the remaining project area.

Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map (VTSM) No. 6497 (Westhaven 2) pertains to the subdivision of land and proposed street dedications/improvements to accommodate for single unit development. The proposed project would include the subdivision of one parcel of land (APN 370-040-10) into 174 lots consisting of 166 lots for single unit development with a minimum lot size of 5,002 square feet, an average lot size of 5,561 square feet, and a residential density of 5.19 dwelling units per gross acre, as well as 7 outlots and one 2-acre storm drain basin. The subdivision would have two access points, one access point would be on South Buttonwillow Ave and the secondary access point would be on East North Avenue.

Conditions specific to the development may be found within Attachment 1, Exhibit A (Draft Conditions of Approval dated October 16, 2025, and attached to Resolution No. 2025-084), which details general, department-specific, and miscellaneous requirements the development must meet and/or perform, if approved. Additionally, the proposed vesting tentative subdivision map is included within Attachment 1, Exhibit A for Resolution No. 2025-084, showing the lot configurations and required right-of-way dedications.

GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
The proposed project site is located outside of the Reedley City Limits but is within the City of Reedley’s Sphere of Influence. The City of Reedley General Plan Update 2030 designates approximately 35.7 acres of the project site with a Low Density Residential Planned Land Use Designation and the remaining 4 acres are currently designated as High Density Residential.

General Plan Amendment Application No. 2025-01 proposes that the entire project site be classified as Low Density Residential. This amendment would be consistent with the goals and policies of the Reedley General Plan 2030.

The City of Reedley General Plan Update 2030 states that the City should provide for a range of housing types, styles and densities. The essential goal for the City of Reedley is to ensure that housing opportunities are made available for all socio-economic levels. General Plan Amendment Application No. 2025-01 proposes a General Plan Planned Land Use Designation of Low Density Residential. The density range for General Plan Planned Land Use Designation of Low Density Residential is four-to-eight dwelling units per acre. The proposed project has a residential density of 5.19 dwelling units per gross acre. The Low Density Residential designation is intended for single-unit detached residential development, attached single-unit, and low-density multi-unit residential uses. Admittedly, residential subdivisions remain the primary residential land use and is represented in newly constructed housing projects within the City of Reedley. Below are those directly applicable goal and policy statements that the project would implement:

LU 2.6A New development shall be designed in a way that creates fully integrated neighborhoods with a variety of land uses arranged so that access by walking or bicycling is possible and encouraged.

LU 2.7C Preserve existing neighborhoods and create strong new neighborhoods that are well designed and maintained.

LU 2.7.3 Guide new development into compact neighborhoods around commercial centers, public open space and schools.

LU 2.7.5 Encourage and support within existing neighborhoods in-fill development.

LU 2.7.6 Ensure that residential development occurs in areas that have sufficient infrastructure to accommodate the density of residential development being proposed.

LU 2.7.7 Residential development shall be designed in a manner so that new development is well connected to the surrounding area and to encourage pedestrian and bicycle transportation.

The proposed annexation is consistent with the City of Reedley General Plan Update 2030 because the residential development proposed as part of this annexation application is consistent with the anticipated type of development identified in the proposed Low Density Residential Planned Land Use Designation.

Since the project is currently located outside of city limits, the project site (APN: 370-040-10) is not listed on the sites inventory of the Multi-Jurisdictional Housing Element. However, based on the Fresno Council of Government’s Regional Housing Needs Plan that was adopted in November 2022, the City of Reedley must plan to accommodate 1,463 housing units, divided between four different affordability levels, between July 20, 2023 and December 31, 2031. Of the 1,463 total units, the City must plan to accommodate 403 units for very low-income households, 183 units for low-income households, 211 units for moderate-income households, and 666 units for above moderate-income households. Based on similar market rate single-unit housing projects, Westhaven 2 will likely be in the above-moderate income level.

As discussed above, the intent of Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map No. 6497 is to subdivide and develop the 33.98+ acres of property into 166 single-unit residential lots. The proposed project is consistent with the proposed General Plan Designation and proposed zone district designation for the area. Development of the land is consistent with the development standards prescribed within the Reedley Municipal Code.

ZONING ORDINANCE CONSISTENCY
The project site parcel is situated within the County of Fresno’s jurisdiction and is currently zoned by the County as Exclusive Agricultural (AE20). This zone district is intended to be an exclusive district for agricultural and for those specified uses which are necessary and an integral part of the agricultural operation. The proposed project includes pre-zoning approximately 39.7 acres into the R-1-6 (Low Density Residential) zone district. With an approved General Plan Amendment Application No. 2025-01, the proposed pre-zoning for the proposed project remains consistent with the GPU Planned Land Use and Zoning District Consistency Matrix (GPU, Table 2-4, Page 30).

Upon annexation, the parcel would have a R-1-6 (Low Density Residential) zone district designation. The density range in the R-1-6 (Low Density Residential) zone district is four to eight dwelling units per acre with a minimum parcel size of 5,000 square feet. According to Section 10.10.010 of the Reedley Municipal Code, the intended purpose of the R-1-6 (Low Density Residential) zone district is to allow for a mixture of housing types and densities in newly developing and predominantly low-density residential areas of the City. These zone districts allow one-unit dwellings and encourage missing middle housing types (i.e., two-unit and three-unit dwellings), as well as complimentary human services land uses on a variety of parcel sizes. For example, public and private schools are permitted by-right within the R-1-6 (Low Density Residential) zone district.

The lots proposed to be subdivided through Tentative Subdivision Map No. 6497 meet the designation, lot and area requirements for the proposed zone district designations they are in, which confirms consistency with the Reedley Municipal Code.

STANDARDS FOR ANNEXATION
In order for territory to be annexed into the City, the Planning Commission and the City Council would have to authorize an application to be submitted to the Fresno Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo). LAFCo regulates, through approval or denial, the boundary changes proposed by other public agencies or individuals. If the City Council of the City of Reedley, upon recommendation from the Planning Commission, authorizes the submittal of an annexation/reorganization application to LAFCo, the Fresno Local Agency Formation Commission would take action on the annexation request and record the boundary change if the Commission’s action is to approve. The annexation/reorganization application has to be consistent with a variety of documents and laws, including: the City’s General Plan, ordinances, and policies; the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act; and the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the County of Fresno and the City of Reedley.

As mentioned in the above section, the City of Reedley has determined that the application is consistent with the City of Reedley General Plan Update 2030, ordinances, and policies.

The three main purposes of the Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act are to discourage urban sprawl, encourage orderly governmental boundaries, and preserve open-space and prime agricultural lands. The City of Reedley has historically taken a conservative approach to expansion of the Reedley City Limits, thus avoiding premature conversion of farmland. The City continues to take this approach. For example, one of the City of Reedley’s General Plan 2030 Land Use Policies (LU 2.5.8) is to not consider annexation of new territory for residential development until at least eighty percent (80%) of the existing residentially designated land inside the city limits is developed. As of the time of this staff report, more than 80% of the existing residentially designated land is developed.

The City incentivizes development to occur within city limits and the city center by reducing development impact fees and entitlement application fees. The proposed annexation application is adjacent to the existing Reedley City Limits on the north half of its eastern border (Silas Bartsch Elementary School) in addition to being adjacent to the existing Reedley City Limits on the entire length of its northern, western, and southern borders (low density residential development). This demonstrates orderly governmental boundaries and efforts to avoid urban sprawl.

Annexation Application No. 2025-01 identifies imminent development within the subject property, with more than 25% of the area proposed for annexation a part of the proposed development through a submitted tentative subdivision map application, which complies with the standards of annexation. Therefore, this annexation application is consistent with the City of Reedley General Plan Update 2030 and the Memorandum of Understanding between the County of Fresno and the City of Reedley.

TENTATIVE MAP FINDINGS (VESTING TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP NO. 6497) Pursuant to the Subdivision Map Act and Reedley Municipal Code (RMC) Section 11.04.080, a tentative map shall be approved if the following findings can be made:

1. That the proposed tentative map is consistent with the general plan or any applicable specific plan as specified in Government Code section 65451.

As noted in the General Plan Consistency discussion above, the proposed vesting tentative subdivision map is consistent with the City of Reedley General Plan Update 2030. Further, pursuant to Title 11 (Subdivision Ordinance) of the RMC, the proposed vesting tentative subdivision map design meets the zoning ordinance criteria for development in the existing zone district classifications.

2. That the design or improvement of the proposed subdivision of land is consistent with the general plan or any applicable specific plan.

The proposed vesting tentative subdivision map, with its design and improvements, is consistent with the City of Reedley General Plan Update 2030 because its design helps achieve many of the General Plan’s adopted goals and policies, including orderly growth patterns, and designing well-connected neighborhoods with pedestrian amenities. The proposed vesting tentative subdivision map provides for improvements that are also consistent with the City of Reedley General Plan Update 2030 in terms of circulation and the future buildout of streets.

3. That the site of the proposed subdivision of land is physically suitable for the type of development.

This site is physically suitable for the proposed type and density of development, because the proposed extension of streets and conditions of approval prepared would ensure adequate access within and around the site, and that development shall occur in accordance with adopted standards, goals, objectives, and policies for development in the City of Reedley.

4. That the site of the proposed subdivision of land is physically suitable for the proposed density of development.

The site is physically suitable for the ultimate proposed average density of development set forth in the Reedley General Plan Planned Land Use Designation of Low Density Residential. The project density is approximately 5.19 dwelling units per acre, which is within the density range of 4-8 dwelling units per acre.

5. That the design of the proposed subdivision of land or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause significant and unavoidable impacts to fish, wildlife or their habitat.

The proposed vesting tentative subdivision map design and improvements are not likely to cause substantial and considerable damage to the natural environment, including fish, wildlife or their habitat, because the site is located adjacent to an area that has developed with urban uses.

6. That the design of the proposed subdivision of land or type of improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems.

The proposed vesting tentative subdivision map design and improvements are not likely to cause serious public health and safety problems because the conditions of approval have shown and would ensure that the subdivision of land conforms to City health and safety standards, specifications, and policies.

7. That the design of the proposed subdivision of land or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision.

The proposed vesting tentative subdivision map design will not conflict with public easements within or through the site, because the project design and conditions of approval will assure noninterference with any existing or proposed easements on the subject property.

8. That the vesting tentative subdivision map meets or performs any of the requirements or conditions imposed by the Subdivision Map Act or the Reedley Municipal Code.

The vesting tentative subdivision map is subject to conditions of approval imposed by the Subdivision Map Act and the Reedley Municipal Code, therefore the development of the vesting tentative subdivision map is required to comply with all conditions, standards, and policies.

9. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66473.1, the design of a subdivision of land for which a vesting tentative subdivision map is required pursuant to Section 66426 shall provide, to the extent feasible, for future passive or natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision.

The design of the associated subdivision provides, to the extent feasible, for future passive and natural heating or cooling opportunities due to the required compliance with the California Energy Code and sufficient landscaping throughout the site as required by the RMC.

The vesting tentative subdivision map, subject to the recommended conditions of approval, complies with the design and property development standards of the Zoning Ordinance, the Subdivision Map Act, and local Subdivision Ordinance. Based upon the plans and information submitted by the applicant and the recommended conditions of project approval, staff has determined that these findings can be made.

Therefore, the appropriateness of the proposed project has been examined with respect to its consistency with guiding land use principles, goals and policies of the City of Reedley General Plan Update 2030 and regulatory standards set forth in the RMC and its compatibility with

surrounding existing or proposed uses. These factors have been evaluated as described above.

Upon consideration of this evaluation, it can be concluded that the vesting tentative subdivision map is appropriate for the subject property.

PUBLIC NOTICING
Pursuant to the Government Code Section 65091 (Planning and Zoning Law) and Reedley Municipal Code, §10.110.040, it is required that a notice be published in a newspaper of general circulation and be sent to surrounding property owners. Such notices were appropriately disseminated to surrounding property owners on October 23, 2025; additionally, a notice was published in the October 23, 2025, publication of the Mid-Valley Times. See Attachment 5 for the proof of Public Noticing.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The City of Reedley has conducted an environmental analysis for the above-described project (Environmental Assessment No. 2025-05). The project has been determined to be a subsequent project that not fully within the scope of the certified Program Environmental Impact Report (SCH No. 2010031106) prepared for the City of Reedley General Plan Update 2030 (GPU). Therefore, the City of Reedley, as the lead agency, proposes to adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration for this project.

The completed environmental impact checklist, the associated narrative, and any proposed mitigation measure(s) reflect applicable comments of responsible and trustee agencies, as well as research and analysis conducted to examine the interrelationship between the proposed project and the physical environment. The information contained in the project application and its related environmental assessment application, responses to requests for comment, checklist and initial study narrative combine to form the record indicating that an initial study has been completed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act and CEQA Guidelines.

All new development activity and many non-physical projects contribute directly or indirectly toward cumulative impacts on the physical environment. It has been determined that the incremental effect contributed by this project toward cumulative impacts is not considered substantial or significant, and/or that cumulative impacts accruing from this project may be mitigated to less than significant with application of feasible mitigation measures.

For some categories of potential impacts, the checklist may indicate that a specific adverse environmental effect has been identified which is of sufficient magnitude to potentially be of concern without mitigation to reduce the level of significance. Such an effect may be inherent in nature and magnitude of the project. The completed environmental checklist form indicated whether an impact would be less than significant, or less than significant with mitigation. Effects so rated are not sufficient in themselves to require the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report, and have been mitigated to the extent reasonably feasible as required by CEQA. The City has proposed to self-regulate urban growth, which has a direct impact on premature and an unnecessary conversion of agricultural lands, by committing to annexing a maximum of five hundred (500) acres from within the existing SOI (See Policy LU 2.5.18) before implementing the Farmland Preservation Program.

The project is not located on a site which is included on any of the lists enumerated under Section 65962.5 of the Government Code including, but not limited to, lists of hazardous waste facilities, land designated as hazardous waste property, hazardous waste disposal sites and

others, and the information in the Hazardous Waste and Substance Statement required under subdivision (f) of that Section.

The initial study has concluded that the proposed project would not result in any adverse effects which fall within the “Mandatory Findings of Significance” contained in Section 15065 of the State CEQA Guidelines.

With the project specific mitigation imposed, there is no substantial evidence in the record that this project may have additional significant direct, indirect or cumulative effects on the environment that are significant and that were not identified and analyzed in the certified Program Environmental Impact Report prepared for the GPU. After conducting a review of the adequacy of the Program Environmental Impact Report (SCH No. 2010031106) pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21083.3, as the lead agency, finds that no substantial changes have occurred with respect to circumstances under which the Program Environmental Impact Report (SCH No. 2010031106) was certified, and that no new information which was not known and could not have been know at the time that the Program Environmental Impact Report (SCH No. 2010031106) was certified, has become available.

Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act and CEQA Guidelines, a Notice of Intent to adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration was filed with the County of Fresno and with the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (LCI) on August 19, 2025. The comment period expired on September 18, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. Comments received by interested parties will be included in the record and responded to prior to Planning Commission consideration.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The project applicant has paid all applicable entitlement application fees. The Fresno Local Agency Formation Commission annexation application and processing fees will also be paid by the applicant.

Commercial Fruit Orchard to be removed, stripping & removal of organics, then regraded to accommodate streets, wet and dry utilities for 166 single family residential lots.

Permanent retention basin proposed for all storm water run off. Improving and extending public utilities and streets.

Acreage to be amended: The current assessed acreage is 34.73, an ALTA survey of the property found the net acreage to be 33.98 acres for VTSM No. 6497.

The existing GP Designation for APN 370-040-10 which contains 33.98 acres is 4 acres of High density Residential (HDR) and the remainder of the property Low Density Residential (LDR). Applicant is proposing all 33.98 acres be designated as Low Density Residential (LDR).

The project is outside of existing City Limits but if annexed, the proposed pre-zoning of APN 370-040-10 would be R-1-6, which would be consistent with the entire property having a proposed land use designation of Low Density Residential.

The proposed land use designation is consistent with the surrounding properties within the city limits and would maintain a uniform size of lot in the area approaching the neighboring school.

The goals and objectives are going to be maintained by this development by having the majority of the property remain its original planned use, and to facilitate Springfield being constructed as close to its original proposed alignment as possible.

For the specific 4 acres of HDR to be amended, the surrounding property to the North and East is part of the TSM No. 6497 project area. Beyond this project area to the to the North there are three parcels (with two separate property owners) that will be included within the Annexation area. We have spoken to these neighboring property owners about our project and the annexation, but we have not discussed the specifics of this GPA with them. Beyond the project area to the East there is an agricultural parcel owned by Ben Kubota that is in the County and Silas Barsch School within the city limits. To the West is an existing subdivision with homes built circa 2004. To the South is a Century Communities subdivision that is currently still selling single-family homes. We have not spoken to any of these surrounding neighbors or any others that may be potentially impacted by the proposed GPA. However, we anticipate any such impact would be minimal because the GPA is only proposing for these 4 acres to be amended to a Low Density Residential (LDR) designation that the surrounding properties (that are in the City) already have themselves.

Dear Ms. Friesen:

PROJECT NUMBER: ANX 2025-01, GPA 2025-01, R 2025-01, VTSM 6497 Annexation Application No. 2025-01 pertains to the annexation of approximately 39.7 acres into the City of Reedley. The proposed annexation area includes APN 370-040-10, 370-040-22, 370-040-23, 370-40-13 and existing right-of-way contiguous to parcel boundaries. The proposed annexation is within the City of Reedley’s adopted Sphere of Influence, is adjacent to the existing City of Reedley City Limits on three sides, and promotes orderly growth and development.

General Plan Amendment Application No. 2025-01 pertains to the reclassification of a 4-acre portion of a parcel (APN 370-040-10) that currently has a High Density Residential General Plan Land Use Designation. The proposed General Plan Amendment would reclassify the portion of the parcel from High Density Residential (15.1-29 dwelling units per acre) to Low Density Residential (4-8 dwelling units per acre). If General Plan Amendment Application No. 2025-01 is approved, then the entire parcel (APN 370-040-10) would have a Low Density Residential General Plan Land Use Designation (4-8 dwelling units per acre).

Re-Zone Application No. 2025-01 pertains to the reclassification of approximately 39.7 acres consisting of four parcels (APN 370-040-10, 370-040-22, 370-040-23, 370-40-13) from agricultural use (AL20) within Fresno County to the R-1-6 (One Family Residential) zone district upon annexation into Reedley City Limits. The proposed zoning designation is consistent with the proposed general plan amendment as well as the existing Low Density Residential General Plan Planned Land Use Designation of the remaining project area.

Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map (TSM) No. 6497 (Westhaven 2) pertains to the subdivision of land and proposed street dedications/improvements to accommodate for single unit development. The proposed project would include the subdivision of one parcel of land (APN 370-040-10) into 174 lots consisting of 166 lots for single unit development with a minimum lot size of 5,002 square feet, an average lot size of 5,561 square feet, and a residential density of 5.19 units per gross acre, as well as 7 out lots and one 2-acre storm drain basin. The subdivision would have two access points, one access point would be on Buttonwillow Ave and the secondary access point would be on East North Avenue.

SUBJECT: City of Reedley, ANX 2025-01
Dear Ms. Friesen,
The County of Fresno appreciates the opportunity to review and comment on the subject project being reviewed by the City of Reedley. The proposed subdivision of approximately 39.7-acres to allow for a 166 single-family residential units and related developments.

The documents received for this review were circulated to our various Fresno County Public Works and Planning divisions. See comments below.

Development Engineering:
1) According to the U.S.G.S. Quad Map, Buttonwillow Ditch is located along the eastern property line of the subject property. Any improvements constructed within or near a ditch should be coordinated with the owners of the ditch/appropriate agency. 2) Furthermore, according to the Wetlands Mapper of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, a wetland may be present along the eastern property line of the subject property. For any development on wetlands, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and other appropriate agencies should be consulted regarding any requirements they may have.

Road Maintenance and Operations:

Buttonwillow Avenue is a half county-maintained road classified as an arterial with an existing 30’ right of way east of section line and an ultimate right of way of 106’ per the Fresno County General Plan. Buttonwillow Ave has a total pavement width of 24.8’, an ADT of 10500 VPD per 2017 count date, and a PCI of 61. Roadway is in fair condition. 1) City of Reedley should be required to annex the full road right-of-way of Buttonwillow Avenue along parcel frontage.

City of Reedley
No. 2025-01

The Fresno Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo) regulates, through approval or denial, the boundary changes proposed by local agencies or individuals. LAFCo’s objectives are to:
• Encourage orderly formation and development of agencies; • Encourage consistency with spheres of influence and recommended reorganization of agencies;
• Encourage orderly urban development and preservation of open space patterns; • Encourage conservation of prime agricultural lands and open space areas; and • Identify and address disadvantaged unincorporated communities.

LAFCo should be identified in the city’s environmental document as a Responsible Agency under CEQA whose role is to consider reorganizations and spheres of influence. Commission action on the reorganization request should be noted in the environmental document. As a Responsible Agency, the Commission is required to review and consider the city’s environmental documents prior to taking its action. A Responsible Agency complies with CEQA by considering the environmental analysis prepared by the Lead Agency and by reaching its own conclusions on whether to and how to approve the project. The Commission may then make a finding that it independently reviewed and considered the information in the environmental document and that the environmental document is sufficient to support a determination on the proposed reorganization.

Project-Specific Comments
The city will be required to submit the appropriate application materials including fees to LAFCo for reorganization. These materials are enumerated on our website (www.fresnolafco.org) through the “Applications and Documents” tab under “Items Necessary for a Complete Application.” The fee schedule for changes of organization/reorganization (annexation) of 21 to 40 acres is $9,600.

The city may send notice 56654(c) to the interested and affected agencies if the annexation is 100 percent uninhabited to reduce the project timeline.

If the proposal results in the annexation of land that is subject to a contract executed pursuant to the Williamson Act (Chapter 7, commencing with section 51200 of Division 1), then the petition and/or resolution for reorganization request shall state whether the City shall succeed to the contract pursuant to section 51243 or whether the City intends to exercise its option to not succeed to the contract pursuant to section 51243.5.

Annexation of full rights-of-way contiguous to parcel boundaries should be presumed in the reorganization’s legal description and map.

LAFCo is available to attend any community outreach meetings should the need arise.

Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments. If you have any questions, please contact me at (559) 600-1702 or email at [email protected].

Subject: Automatic reply: City of Reedley Request for Comment - Annexation 2025-01 EXTERNAL EMAIL - This email was sent by a person from outside your organization. Exercise caution when clicking links, opening attachments or taking further action, before validating its authenticity.

Hello,
Thank you for contacting PG&E’s Plan Review Team. Due to high volumes of requests for review, expect delays in receiving comments or a project specific response from PG&E. Please see PG&E’s general construction restrictions and guidelines for proposed projects around gas and electric facilities and incorporate these preliminary notes into your project design.

Gas Facilities
There could be gas transmission pipelines in this area which would be considered critical facilities for PG&E and a high priority subsurface installation under California law. Care must be taken to ensure safety and accessibility. So, please ensure that if PG&E approves work near gas transmission pipelines it is done in adherence with the below stipulations. Additionally, the following link provides additional information regarding legal requirements under California excavation laws: https://www.usanorth811.org/images/pdfs/CA-LAW2018.pdf

1. Standby Inspection: A PG&E Gas Transmission Standby Inspector must be present during any demolition or construction activity that comes within 10 feet of the gas pipeline. This includes all grading, trenching, substructure depth verifications (potholes), asphalt or concrete demolition/removal, removal of trees, signs, light poles, etc. This inspection can be coordinated through the Underground Service Alert (USA) service at 811. A minimum notice of 48 hours is required. Ensure the USA markings and notifications are maintained throughout the duration of your work.

2. Access: At any time, PG&E may need to access, excavate, and perform work on the gas pipeline. Any construction equipment, materials, or spoils may need to be removed upon notice. Any temporary construction fencing installed within PG&E’s easement would also need to be capable of being removed at any time upon notice. Any plans to cut temporary slopes exceeding a 1:4 grade within 10 feet of a gas transmission pipeline need to be approved by PG&E Pipeline Services in writing PRIOR to performing the work.

3. Wheel Loads: To prevent damage to the buried gas pipeline, there are weight limits that must be enforced whenever any equipment gets within 10 feet of traversing the pipe.

Ensure a list of the axle weights of all equipment being used is available for PG&E’s Standby Inspector. To confirm the depth of cover, the pipeline may need to be potholed by hand in a few areas.

Due to the complex variability of tracked equipment, vibratory compaction equipment, and cranes, PG&E must evaluate those items on a case-by-case basis prior to use over the gas pipeline (provide a list of any proposed equipment of this type noting model numbers and specific attachments). 2 No equipment may be set up over the gas pipeline while operating. Ensure crane outriggers are at least 10 feet from the centerline of the gas pipeline. Transport trucks must not be parked over the gas pipeline while being loaded or unloaded.

4. Grading: PG&E requires a minimum of 36 inches of cover over gas pipelines (or existing grade if less) and a maximum of 7 feet of cover at all locations. The graded surface cannot exceed a cross slope of 1:4.

5. Excavating: Any digging within 2 feet of a gas pipeline must be dug by hand. Note that while the minimum clearance is only 12 inches, any excavation work within 24 inches of the edge of a pipeline must be done with hand tools. So to avoid having to dig a trench entirely with hand tools, the edge of the trench must be over 24 inches away. (Doing the math for a 24 inch wide trench being dug along a 36 inch pipeline, the centerline of the trench would need to be at least 54 inches [24/2 + 24 + 36/2 = 54] away, or be entirely dug by hand.)
Water jetting to assist vacuum excavating must be limited to 1000 psig and directed at a 40° angle to the pipe.

All pile driving must be kept a minimum of 3 feet away.

Any plans to expose and support a PG&E gas transmission pipeline across an open excavation need to be approved by PG&E Pipeline Services in writing PRIOR to performing the work.

6. Boring/Trenchless Installations: PG&E Pipeline Services must review and approve all plans to bore across or parallel to (within 10 feet) a gas transmission pipeline. There are stringent criteria to pothole the gas transmission facility at regular intervals for all parallel bore installations.

For bore paths that cross gas transmission pipelines perpendicularly, the pipeline must be potholed a minimum of 2 feet in the horizontal direction of the bore path and a minimum of 12 inches in the vertical direction from the bottom of the pipe with minimum clearances measured from the edge of the pipe in both directions.

Standby personnel must watch the locator trace (and every ream pass) the path of the bore as it approaches the pipeline and visually monitor the pothole (with the exposed transmission pipe) as the bore traverses the pipeline to ensure adequate clearance with the pipeline. The pothole width must account for the inaccuracy of the locating equipment.

7. Substructures: All utility crossings of a gas pipeline should be made as close to perpendicular as feasible (90° +/- 15°). All utility lines crossing the gas pipeline must have a minimum of 12 inches of separation from the gas pipeline. Parallel utilities, pole bases, water line ‘kicker blocks’, storm drain inlets, water meters, valves, back pressure devices or other utility substructures are not allowed in the PG&E gas pipeline easement.

If previously retired PG&E facilities are in conflict with proposed substructures, PG&E must verify they are safe prior to removal. This includes verification testing of the contents of the facilities, as well as environmental testing of the coating and internal surfaces. Timelines for PG&E completion of this verification will vary depending on the type and location of facilities in conflict.

8. Structures: No structures are to be built within the PG&E gas pipeline easement. This includes buildings, retaining walls, fences, decks, patios, carports, septic tanks, storage sheds, tanks, loading ramps, or any structure that could limit PG&E’s ability to access its facilities.

9. Fencing: Permanent fencing is not allowed within PG&E easements except for perpendicular crossings which must include a 16 foot wide gate for vehicular access. Gates will be secured with PG&E corporation locks.

10. Landscaping: Landscaping must be designed to allow PG&E to access the pipeline for maintenance and not interfere with pipeline coatings or other cathodic protection systems. No trees, shrubs, brush, vines, and other vegetation may be planted within the easement area. Only those plants, ground covers, grasses, flowers, and low-growing plants that grow unsupported to a maximum of four feet (4’) in height at maturity may be planted within the easement area.
3 11. Cathodic Protection: PG&E pipelines are protected from corrosion with an “Impressed Current” cathodic protection system. Any proposed facilities, such as metal conduit, pipes, service lines, ground rods, anodes, wires, etc. that might affect the pipeline cathodic protection system must be reviewed and approved by PG&E Corrosion Engineering.

12. Pipeline Marker Signs: PG&E needs to maintain pipeline marker signs for gas transmission pipelines in order to ensure public awareness of the presence of the pipelines. With prior written approval from PG&E Pipeline Services, an existing PG&E pipeline marker sign that is in direct conflict with proposed developments may be temporarily relocated to accommodate construction work. The pipeline marker must be moved back once construction is complete.

13. PG&E is also the provider of distribution facilities throughout many of the areas within the state of California. Therefore, any plans that impact PG&E’s facilities must be reviewed and approved by PG&E to ensure that no impact occurs which may endanger the safe operation of its facilities.

Electric Facilities
It is PG&E’s policy to permit certain uses on a case by case basis within its electric transmission fee strip(s) and/or easement(s) provided such uses and manner in which they are exercised, will not interfere with PG&E’s rights or endanger its facilities. Some examples/restrictions are as follows:

1. Buildings and Other Structures: No buildings or other structures including the foot print and eave of any buildings, swimming pools, wells or similar structures will be permitted within fee strip(s) and/or easement(s) areas. PG&E’s transmission easement shall be designated on subdivision/parcel maps as “RESTRICTED USE AREA – NO BUILDING.”

2. Grading: Cuts, trenches or excavations may not be made within 25 feet of our towers. Developers must submit grading plans and site development plans (including geotechnical reports if applicable), signed and dated, for PG&E’s review. PG&E engineers must review grade changes in the vicinity of our towers. No fills will be allowed which would impair ground-to-conductor clearances. Towers shall not be left on mounds without adequate road access to base of tower or structure.

3. Fences: Walls, fences, and other structures must be installed at locations that do not affect the safe operation of PG&’s facilities. Heavy equipment access to our facilities must be maintained at all times. Metal fences are to be grounded to PG&E specifications. No wall, fence or other like structure is to be installed within 10 feet of tower footings and unrestricted access must be maintained from a tower structure to the nearest street. Walls, fences and other structures proposed along or within the fee strip(s) and/or easement(s) will require PG&E review; submit plans to PG&E Centralized Review Team for review and comment.

4. Landscaping: Vegetation may be allowed; subject to review of plans. On overhead electric transmission fee strip(s) and/or easement(s), trees and shrubs are limited to those varieties that do not exceed 10 feet in height at maturity. PG&E must have access to its facilities at all times, including access by heavy equipment. No planting is to occur within the footprint of the tower legs. Greenbelts are encouraged.

5. Reservoirs, Sumps, Drainage Basins, and Ponds: Prohibited within PG&E’s fee strip(s) and/or easement(s) for electric transmission lines.

6. Automobile Parking: Short term parking of movable passenger vehicles and light trucks (pickups, vans, etc.) is allowed. The lighting within these parking areas will need to be reviewed by PG&E; approval will be on a case by case basis. Heavy equipment access to PG&E facilities is to be maintained at all times. Parking is to clear PG&E structures by at least 10 feet. Protection of PG&E facilities from vehicular traffic is to be provided at developer’s expense AND to PG&E specifications. Blocked-up vehicles are not allowed. Carports, canopies, or awnings are not allowed.
4 7. Storage of Flammable, Explosive or Corrosive Materials: There shall be no storage of fuel or combustibles and no fueling of vehicles within PG&E’s easement. No trash bins or incinerators are allowed.

8. Streets and Roads: Access to facilities must be maintained at all times. Street lights may be allowed in the fee strip(s) and/or easement(s) but in all cases must be reviewed by PG&E for proper clearance. Roads and utilities should cross the transmission easement as nearly at right angles as possible. Road intersections will not be allowed within the transmission easement.

9. Pipelines: Pipelines may be allowed provided crossings are held to a minimum and to be as nearly perpendicular as possible. Pipelines within 25 feet of PG&E structures require review by PG&E. Sprinklers systems may be allowed; subject to review. Leach fields and septic tanks are not allowed. Construction plans must be submitted to PG&E for review and approval prior to the commencement of any construction.

10. Signs: Signs are not allowed except in rare cases subject to individual review by PG&E.

11. Recreation Areas: Playgrounds, parks, tennis courts, basketball courts, barbecue and light trucks (pickups, vans, etc.) may be allowed; subject to review of plans. Heavy equipment access to PG&E facilities is to be maintained at all times. Parking is to clear PG&E structures by at least 10 feet. Protection of PG&E facilities from vehicular traffic is to be provided at developer’s expense AND to PG&E specifications.

12. Construction Activity: Since construction activity will take place near PG&E’s overhead electric lines, please be advised it is the contractor’s responsibility to be aware of, and observe the minimum clearances for both workers and equipment operating near high voltage electric lines set out in the High-Voltage Electrical Safety Orders of the California Division of Industrial Safety (hƩps://www.dir.ca.gov/Title8/sb5g2.html), as well as any other safety regulations. Contractors shall comply with California Public Utilities Commission General Order 95 (hƩp://www.cpuc.ca.gov/gos/GO95/go_95_startup_page.html) and all other safety rules. No construction may occur within 25 feet of PG&E’s towers. All excavation activities may only commence after 811 protocols has been followed.

Contractor shall ensure the protection of PG&E’s towers and poles from vehicular damage by (installing protective barriers) Plans for protection barriers must be approved by PG&E prior to construction.

13. PG&E is also the owner of distribution facilities throughout many of the areas within the state of California.

Therefore, any plans that impact PG&E’s facilities must be reviewed and approved by PG&E to ensure that no impact occurs that may endanger the safe and reliable operation of its facilities.

If the proposed project is adjacent/or within PG&E owned property and/or easements, we will be working with you to ensure compatible uses and activities near our facilities.

Attached you will find information and requirements as it relates to Gas facilities (Attachment 1) and Electric facilities (Attachment 2). Please review these in detail, as it is critical to ensure your safety and to protect PG&E’s facilities and its existing rights.

Below is additional information for your review:

1. This plan review process does not replace the application process for PG&E gas or electric service your project may require. For these requests, please continue to work with PG&E Service Planning: https://www.pge.com/en/account/servicerequests/building-and-renovation.html.

2. If the project being submitted is part of a larger project, please include the entire scope of your project, and not just a portion of it. PG&E’s facilities are to be incorporated within any CEQA document. PG&E needs to verify that the CEQA document will identify any required future PG&E services.

3. An engineering deposit may be required to review plans for a project depending on the size, scope, and location of the project and as it relates to any rearrangement or new installation of PG&E facilities.

Any proposed uses within the PG&E fee strip and/or easement, may include a California Public Utility Commission (CPUC) Section 851 filing. This requires the CPUC to render approval for a conveyance of rights for specific uses on PG&E’s fee strip or easement. PG&E will advise if the necessity to incorporate a CPUC Section 851filing is required.

This letter does not constitute PG&E’s consent to use any portion of its easement for any purpose not previously conveyed. PG&E will provide a project specific response as required.

Attachment 1 – Gas Facilities
There could be gas transmission pipelines in this area which would be considered critical facilities for PG&E and a high priority subsurface installation under California law. Care must be taken to ensure safety and accessibility. So, please ensure that if PG&E approves work near gas transmission pipelines it is done in adherence with the below stipulations. Additionally, the following link provides additional information regarding legal requirements under California excavation laws: https://www.usanorth811.org/images/pdfs/CA-LAW-2018.pdf

1. Standby Inspection: A PG&E Gas Transmission Standby Inspector must be present during any demolition or construction activity that comes within 10 feet of the gas pipeline. This includes all grading, trenching, substructure depth verifications (potholes), asphalt or concrete demolition/removal, removal of trees, signs, light poles, etc. This inspection can be coordinated through the Underground Service Alert (USA) service at 811. A minimum notice of 48 hours is required. Ensure the USA markings and notifications are maintained throughout the duration of your work.

2. Access: At any time, PG&E may need to access, excavate, and perform work on the gas pipeline. Any construction equipment, materials, or spoils may need to be removed upon notice.

Any temporary construction fencing installed within PG&E’s easement would also need to be capable of being removed at any time upon notice. Any plans to cut temporary slopes exceeding a 1:4 grade within 10 feet of a gas transmission pipeline need to be approved by PG&E Pipeline Services in writing PRIOR to performing the work.

3. Wheel Loads: To prevent damage to the buried gas pipeline, there are weight limits that must be enforced whenever any equipment gets within 10 feet of traversing the pipe.

Ensure a list of the axle weights of all equipment being used is available for PG&E’s Standby Inspector. To confirm the depth of cover, the pipeline may need to be potholed by hand in a few areas.

Due to the complex variability of tracked equipment, vibratory compaction equipment, and cranes, PG&E must evaluate those items on a case-by-case basis prior to use over the gas pipeline (provide a list of any proposed equipment of this type noting model numbers and specific attachments).

No equipment may be set up over the gas pipeline while operating. Ensure crane outriggers are at least 10 feet from the centerline of the gas pipeline. Transport trucks must not be parked over the gas pipeline while being loaded or unloaded.

4. Grading: PG&E requires a minimum of 36 inches of cover over gas pipelines (or existing grade if less) and a maximum of 7 feet of cover at all locations. The graded surface cannot exceed a cross slope of 1:4.

5. Excavating: Any digging within 2 feet of a gas pipeline must be dug by hand. Note that while the minimum clearance is only 24 inches, any excavation work within 24 inches of the edge of a pipeline must be done with hand tools. So to avoid having to dig a trench entirely with hand tools, the edge of the trench must be over 24 inches away. (Doing the math for a 24 inch PG&E Gas and Electric Facilities Page 4
Internal
wide trench being dug along a 36 inch pipeline, the centerline of the trench would need to be at least 54 inches [24/2 + 24 + 36/2 = 54] away, or be entirely dug by hand.) Water jetting to assist vacuum excavating must be limited to 1000 psig and directed at a 40° angle to the pipe. All pile driving must be kept a minimum of 3 feet away.

Any plans to expose and support a PG&E gas transmission pipeline across an open excavation need to be approved by PG&E Pipeline Services in writing PRIOR to performing the work.

6. Boring/Trenchless Installations: PG&E Pipeline Services must review and approve all plans to bore across or parallel to (within 10 feet) a gas transmission pipeline. There are stringent criteria to pothole the gas transmission facility at regular intervals for all parallel bore installations.

For bore paths that cross gas transmission pipelines perpendicularly, the pipeline must be potholed a minimum of 2 feet in the horizontal direction of the bore path and a minimum of 24 inches in the vertical direction from the bottom of the pipe with minimum clearances measured from the edge of the pipe in both directions. Standby personnel must watch the locator trace (and every ream pass) the path of the bore as it approaches the pipeline and visually monitor the pothole (with the exposed transmission pipe) as the bore traverses the pipeline to ensure adequate clearance with the pipeline. The pothole width must account for the inaccuracy of the locating equipment.

7. Substructures: All utility crossings of a gas pipeline should be made as close to perpendicular as feasible (90° +/- 15°). All utility lines crossing the gas pipeline must have a minimum of 24 inches of separation from the gas pipeline. Parallel utilities, pole bases, water line ‘kicker blocks’, storm drain inlets, water meters, valves, back pressure devices or other utility substructures are not allowed in the PG&E gas pipeline easement.

If previously retired PG&E facilities are in conflict with proposed substructures, PG&E must verify they are safe prior to removal. This includes verification testing of the contents of the facilities, as well as environmental testing of the coating and internal surfaces. Timelines for PG&E completion of this verification will vary depending on the type and location of facilities in conflict.

8. Structures: No structures are to be built within the PG&E gas pipeline easement. This includes buildings, retaining walls, fences, decks, patios, carports, septic tanks, storage sheds, tanks, loading ramps, or any structure that could limit PG&E’s ability to access its facilities.

9. Fencing: Permanent fencing is not allowed within PG&E easements except for perpendicular crossings which must include a 16 foot wide gate for vehicular access. Gates will be secured with PG&E corporation locks.

10. Landscaping: Landscaping must be designed to allow PG&E to access the pipeline for maintenance and not interfere with pipeline coatings or other cathodic protection systems. No trees, shrubs, brush, vines, and other vegetation may be planted within the easement area.

Only those plants, ground covers, grasses, flowers, and low-growing plants that grow unsupported to a maximum of four feet (4’) in height at maturity may be planted within the easement area.

PG&E Gas and Electric Facilities Page 5
Internal

11. Cathodic Protection: PG&E pipelines are protected from corrosion with an “Impressed Current” cathodic protection system. Any proposed facilities, such as metal conduit, pipes, service lines, ground rods, anodes, wires, etc. that might affect the pipeline cathodic protection system must be reviewed and approved by PG&E Corrosion Engineering.

12. Pipeline Marker Signs: PG&E needs to maintain pipeline marker signs for gas transmission pipelines in order to ensure public awareness of the presence of the pipelines.

With prior written approval from PG&E Pipeline Services, an existing PG&E pipeline marker sign that is in direct conflict with proposed developments may be temporarily relocated to accommodate construction work. The pipeline marker must be moved back once construction is complete.

13. PG&E is also the provider of distribution facilities throughout many of the areas within the state of California. Therefore, any plans that impact PG&E’s facilities must be reviewed and approved by PG&E to ensure that no impact occurs which may endanger the safe operation of its facilities.

PG&E Gas and Electric Facilities Page 6

Attachment 2 – Electric Facilities
It is PG&E’s policy to permit certain uses on a case by case basis within its electric transmission fee strip(s) and/or easement(s) provided such uses and manner in which they are exercised, will not interfere with PG&E’s rights or endanger its facilities. Some examples/restrictions are as follows:

1. Buildings and Other Structures: No buildings or other structures including the foot print and eave of any buildings, swimming pools, wells or similar structures will be permitted within fee strip(s) and/or easement(s) areas. PG&E’s transmission easement shall be designated on subdivision/parcel maps as “RESTRICTED USE AREA – NO BUILDING.”

2. Grading: Cuts, trenches or excavations may not be made within 25 feet of our towers.

Developers must submit grading plans and site development plans (including geotechnical reports if applicable), signed and dated, for PG&E’s review. PG&E engineers must review grade changes in the vicinity of our towers. No fills will be allowed which would impair ground-toconductor clearances. Towers shall not be left on mounds without adequate road access to base of tower or structure.

3. Fences: Walls, fences, and other structures must be installed at locations that do not affect the safe operation of PG&’s facilities. Heavy equipment access to our facilities must be maintained at all times. Metal fences are to be grounded to PG&E specifications. No wall, fence or other like structure is to be installed within 10 feet of tower footings and unrestricted access must be maintained from a tower structure to the nearest street. Walls, fences and other structures proposed along or within the fee strip(s) and/or easement(s) will require PG&E review; submit plans to PG&E Centralized Review Team for review and comment.

4. Landscaping: Vegetation may be allowed; subject to review of plans. On overhead electric transmission fee strip(s) and/or easement(s), plant only low-growing shrubs under the wire zone and only grasses within the area directly below the tower. Along the border of the transmission line right-of-way, plant only small trees no taller than 10 feet in height at maturity. PG&E must have access to its facilities at all times, including access by heavy equipment. No planting is to occur within the footprint of the tower legs. Greenbelts are encouraged.

5. Reservoirs, Sumps, Drainage Basins, and Ponds: Prohibited within PG&E’s fee strip(s) and/or easement(s) for electric transmission lines.

6. Automobile Parking: Short term parking of movable passenger vehicles and light trucks (pickups, vans, etc.) is allowed. The lighting within these parking areas will need to be reviewed by PG&E; approval will be on a case by case basis. Heavy equipment access to PG&E facilities is to be maintained at all times. Parking is to clear PG&E structures by at least 10 feet.

Protection of PG&E facilities from vehicular traffic is to be provided at developer’s expense AND to PG&E specifications. Blocked-up vehicles are not allowed. Carports, canopies, or awnings are not allowed.

7. Storage of Flammable, Explosive or Corrosive Materials: There shall be no storage of fuel or combustibles and no fueling of vehicles within PG&E’s easement. No trash bins or incinerators are allowed.

8. Streets and Roads: Access to facilities must be maintained at all times. Street lights may be allowed in the fee strip(s) and/or easement(s) but in all cases must be reviewed by PG&E for proper clearance. Roads and utilities should cross the transmission easement as nearly at right angles as possible. Road intersections will not be allowed within the transmission easement.

9. Pipelines: Pipelines may be allowed provided crossings are held to a minimum and to be as nearly perpendicular as possible. Pipelines within 25 feet of PG&E structures require review by PG&E. Sprinklers systems may be allowed; subject to review. Leach fields and septic tanks are not allowed. Construction plans must be submitted to PG&E for review and approval prior to the commencement of any construction.

10. Signs: Signs are not allowed except in rare cases subject to individual review by PG&E.

11. Recreation Areas: Playgrounds, parks, tennis courts, basketball courts, barbecue and light trucks (pickups, vans, etc.) may be allowed; subject to review of plans. Heavy equipment access to PG&E facilities is to be maintained at all times. Parking is to clear PG&E structures by at least 10 feet. Protection of PG&E facilities from vehicular traffic is to be provided at developer’s expense AND to PG&E specifications.

12. Construction Activity: Since construction activity will take place near PG&E’s overhead electric lines, please be advised it is the contractor’s responsibility to be aware of, and observe the minimum clearances for both workers and equipment operating near high voltage electric lines set out in the High-Voltage Electrical Safety Orders of the California Division of Industrial Safety (https://www.dir.ca.gov/Title8/sb5g2.html), as well as any other safety regulations.

Contractors shall comply with California Public Utilities Commission General Order 95 (http://www.cpuc.ca.gov/gos/GO95/go_95_startup_page.html) and all other safety rules. No construction may occur within 25 feet of PG&E’s towers. All excavation activities may only commence after 811 protocols has been followed.

Contractor shall ensure the protection of PG&E’s towers and poles from vehicular damage by (installing protective barriers) Plans for protection barriers must be approved by PG&E prior to construction.

13. PG&E is also the owner of distribution facilities throughout many of the areas within the state of California. Therefore, any plans that impact PG&E’s facilities must be reviewed and approved by PG&E to ensure that no impact occurs that may endanger the safe and reliable operation of its facilities.

Project: Annexation Application No. 2025-01, General Plan Amendment Application No. 2025-01, Rezone Application No. 2025-01, Vesting Tentative Subdivision Map No. 6497
District CEQA Reference No: 20250475
Dear Ms. Friesen,
The San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District (District) has reviewed the CEQA Referral Documents from the City of Reedley (City) for the project mentioned above.

Per the documents, the project consists of 166 single family residential lots and a 2-acre retention basin (Project). The Project is located at 9452 S. Buttonwillow Avenue, in Reedley, CA.

The District offers the following comments at this time regarding the Project:

Project Related Emissions
At the federal level under the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS), the District is designated as extreme nonattainment for the 8-hour ozone standards and serious nonattainment for the particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in size (PM2.5) standards. At the state level under California Ambient Air Quality Standards (CAAQS), the District is designated as nonattainment for the 8-hour ozone, PM10, and PM2.5 standards.

The District’s initial review of the Project concludes that emissions resulting from construction and/or operation of the Project may exceed any of the following significance thresholds as identified in the District’s Guidance for Assessing and Mitigating Air Quality Impacts: https://ww2.valleyair.org/media/g4nl3p0g/gamaqi.pdf.

The District recommends that a more detailed preliminary review of the Project be conducted for the Project’s construction and operational emissions.

San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Page 2 of 9 District Reference No: 20250475
May 8, 2025
Construction Emissions
The District recommends, to reduce impacts from construction-related diesel exhaust emissions, the Project should utilize the cleanest available off-road construction equipment.

Operational Emissions
Operational (ongoing) air emissions from mobile sources and stationary sources should be analyzed separately. For reference, the District’s significance thresholds are identified in the District’s Guidance for Assessing and Mitigating Air Quality Impacts:
https://ww2.valleyair.org/media/g4nl3p0g/gamaqi.pdf.

Recommended Mitigation Measure: At a minimum, project related impacts on air quality should be reduced to levels below the District’s significance thresholds through incorporation of design elements such as the use of cleaner Heavy Heavy-Duty (HHD) trucks and vehicles, measures that reduce Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMTs), and measures that increase energy efficiency. More information on transportation mitigation measures can be found at:
https://ww2.valleyair.org/media/ob0pweru/clean-air-measures.pdf Recommended Model for Quantifying Air Emissions
Project-related criteria pollutant emissions from construction and operational sources should be identified and quantified. Emissions analysis should be performed using the California Emission Estimator Model (CalEEMod), which uses the most recent CARB-approved version of relevant emissions models and emission factors. CalEEMod is available to the public and can be downloaded from the CalEEMod website at: www.caleemod.com.

Health Risk Screening/Assessment
The City should evaluate the risk associated with the Project for sensitive receptors (residences, businesses, hospitals, day-care facilities, health care facilities, etc.) in the area and mitigate any potentially significant risk to help limit exposure of sensitive receptors to emissions.

To determine potential health impacts on surrounding receptors (residences, businesses, hospitals, day-care facilities, health care facilities, etc.) a Prioritization and/or a Health Risk Assessment (HRA) should be performed for the Project. These health risk determinations should quantify and characterize potential Toxic Air Contaminants (TACs) identified by the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment/California Air Resources Board (OEHHA/CARB) that pose a present or potential hazard to human health.

San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Page 3 of 9 District Reference No: 20250475
May 8, 2025
Health risk analyses should include all potential air emissions from the project, which include emissions from construction of the project, including multi-year construction, as well as ongoing operational activities of the project. Note, two common sources of TACs can be attributed to diesel exhaust emitted from heavy-duty off-road earth moving equipment during construction, and from ongoing operation of heavy-duty on-road trucks.

Prioritization (Screening Health Risk Assessment):

A “Prioritization” is the recommended method for a conservative screening-level health risk assessment. The Prioritization should be performed using the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association’s (CAPCOA) methodology. Please contact the District for assistance with performing a Prioritization analysis.

The District recommends that a more refined analysis, in the form of an HRA, be performed for any project resulting in a Prioritization score of 10 or greater. This is because the prioritization results are a conservative health risk representation, while the detailed HRA provides a more accurate health risk evaluation.

Health Risk Assessment:

Prior to performing an HRA, it is strongly recommended that land use agencies/ project proponents develop and submit for District review a health risk modeling protocol that outlines the sources and methodologies that will be used to perform the HRA.

A development project would be considered to have a potentially significant health risk if the HRA demonstrates that the health impacts would exceed the District’s established risk thresholds, which can be found here:
https://ww2.valleyair.org/permitting/ceqa/.

A project with a significant health risk would trigger all feasible mitigation measures.

The District strongly recommends that development projects that result in a significant health risk not be approved by the land use agency.

The District is available to review HRA protocols and analyses. For HRA submittals please provide the following information electronically to the District for review:
• HRA (AERMOD) modeling files
• HARP2 files
• Summary of emissions source locations, emissions rates, and emission factor calculations and methodologies.

May 8, 2025
For assistance, please contact the District’s Technical Services Department by:
• E-Mailing inquiries to: [email protected]
• Calling (559) 230-5900
Recommended Measure: Development projects resulting in TAC emissions should be located an adequate distance from residential areas and other sensitive receptors to prevent the creation of a significant health risk in accordance to CARB's Air Quality and Land Use Handbook: A Community Health Perspective located at https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/our-work/programs/resource-center/strategydevelopment/land-use-resources.

Ambient Air Quality Analysis
An Ambient Air Quality Analysis (AAQA) uses air dispersion modeling to determine if emissions increases from a project will cause or contribute to a violation of State or National Ambient Air Quality Standards. The District recommends an AAQA be performed for the Project if emissions exceed 100 pounds per day of any pollutant.

An AAQA uses air dispersion modeling to determine if emission increase from a project will cause or contribute to a violation of State or National Ambien Air Quality Standards. An acceptable analysis would include emissions from both projectspecific permitted and non-permitted equipment and activities. The District recommends consultation with District staff to determine the appropriate model and input data to use in the analysis.

Specific information for assessing significance, including screening tools and modeling guidance, is available online at the District’s website:
https://ww2.valleyair.org/permitting/ceqa/.

Voluntary Emission Reduction Agreement
Criteria pollutant emissions may result in emissions exceeding the District’s significance thresholds, potentially resulting in a significant impact on air quality.

When a project is expected to have a significant impact, the District recommends the environmental review also include a discussion on the feasibility of implementing a Voluntary Emission Reduction Agreement (VERA) for this Project.

A VERA is a mitigation measure by which the project proponent provides pound-forpound mitigation of emissions increases through a process that develops, funds, and implements emission reduction projects, with the District serving a role of administrator of the emissions reduction projects and verifier of the successful mitigation effort. To implement a VERA, the project proponent and the District enter into a contractual agreement in which the project proponent agrees to mitigate project specific emissions by providing funds for the District’s incentives programs.

San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Page 5 of 9 District Reference No: 20250475
May 8, 2025
The funds are disbursed by the District in the form of grants for projects that achieve emission reductions. Thus, project-related impacts on air quality can be mitigated.

Types of emission reduction projects that have been funded in the past include electrification of stationary internal combustion engines (such as agricultural irrigation pumps), replacing old heavy-duty trucks with new, cleaner, more efficient heavy-duty trucks, and replacement of agricultural equipment with the latest generation technologies.

In implementing a VERA, the District verifies the actual emission reductions that have been achieved as a result of completed grant contracts, monitors the emission reduction projects, and ensures the enforceability of achieved reductions. After the project is mitigated, the District certifies to the Lead Agency that the mitigation is completed, providing the Lead Agency with an enforceable mitigation measure demonstrating that project-related emissions have been mitigated. To assist the Lead Agency and project proponent in ensuring that the environmental document is compliant with CEQA, the District recommends the environmental document includes an assessment of the feasibility of implementing a VERA.

Vegetative Barriers and Urban Greening
There are residential units located near the Project and a middle school (Silas Bartsch School) located east of the Project. The District suggests the City consider the feasibility of incorporating vegetative barriers and urban greening as a measure to further reduce air pollution exposure on sensitive receptors (e.g., residential units and school).

While various emission control techniques and programs exist to reduce air quality emissions from mobile and stationary sources, vegetative barriers have been shown to be an additional measure to potentially reduce a population’s exposure to air pollution through the interception of airborne particles and the update of gaseous pollutants. Examples of vegetative barriers include, but are not limited to the following: trees, bushes, shrubs, or a mix of these. Generally, a higher and thicker vegetative barrier with full coverage will result in greater reductions in downwind pollutant concentrations. In the same manner, urban greening is also a way to help improve air quality and public health in addition to enhancing the overall beautification of a community with drought tolerant, low-maintenance greenery.

Clean Lawn and Garden Equipment in the Community
Since the Project consists of residential development, gas-powered residential lawn and garden equipment have the potential to result in an increase of NOx and PM2.5 emissions. Utilizing electric lawn care equipment can provide residents with immediate economic, environmental, and health benefits. The District recommends the Project proponent consider the District’s Clean Green Yard Machines (CGYM) program which provides incentive funding for replacement of existing gas powered San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Page 6 of 9 District Reference No: 20250475
May 8, 2025
lawn and garden equipment. More information on the District CGYM program and funding can be found at: https://ww2.valleyair.org/grants/clean-green-yardmachines-residential/ On-Site Solar Deployment
It is the policy of the State of California that renewable energy resources and zerocarbon resources supply 100% of retail sales of electricity to California end-use customers by December 31, 2045. While various emission control techniques and programs exist to reduce air quality emissions from mobile and stationary sources, the production of solar energy is contributing to improving air quality and public health. The District suggests that the City consider incorporating solar power systems as an emission reduction strategy for the Project.

District Rules and Regulations
The District issues permits for many types of air pollution sources, and regulates some activities that do not require permits. A project subject to District rules and regulations would reduce its impacts on air quality through compliance with the District’s regulatory framework. In general, a regulation is a collection of individual rules, each of which deals with a specific topic. As an example, Regulation II (Permits) includes District Rule 2010 (Permits Required), Rule 2201 (New and Modified Stationary Source Review), Rule 2520 (Federally Mandated Operating Permits), and several other rules pertaining to District permitting requirements and processes.

The list of rules below is neither exhaustive nor exclusive. Current District rules can be found online at: https://ww2.valleyair.org/rules-and-planning/current-district-rulesand-regulations. To identify other District rules or regulations that apply to future projects, or to obtain information about District permit requirements, the project proponents are strongly encouraged to contact the District’s Small Business Assistance (SBA) Office at (559) 230-5888.

District Rules 2010 and 2201 - Air Quality Permitting for Stationary Sources
Stationary Source emissions include any building, structure, facility, or installation which emits or may emit any affected pollutant directly or as a fugitive emission. District Rule 2010 (Permits Required) requires operators of emission sources to obtain an Authority to Construct (ATC) and Permit to Operate (PTO) from the District. District Rule 2201 (New and Modified Stationary Source Review) requires that new and modified stationary sources of emissions mitigate their emissions using Best Available Control Technology (BACT).

San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District Page 7 of 9 District Reference No: 20250475
May 8, 2025
This Project may be subject to District Rule 2010 (Permits Required) and Rule 2201 (New and Modified Stationary Source Review) and may require District permits. Prior to construction, the Project proponent should submit to the District an application for an ATC. For further information or assistance, the project proponent may contact the District’s SBA Office at (559) 230-5888.

District Rule 9510 - Indirect Source Review (ISR)
The Project is subject to District Rule 9510 because it will receive a projectlevel discretionary approval from a public agency and will equal or exceed 50 residential units.

The purpose of District Rule 9510 is to reduce the growth in both NOx and PM emissions associated with development and transportation projects from mobile and area sources; specifically, the emissions associated with the construction and subsequent operation of development projects. The ISR Rule requires developers to mitigate their NOx and PM emissions by incorporating clean air design elements into their projects. Should the proposed development project clean air design elements be insufficient to meet the required emission reductions, developers must pay a fee that ultimately funds incentive projects to achieve off-site emissions reductions.

Per Section 5.0 of the ISR Rule, an Air Impact Assessment (AIA) application is required to be submitted no later than applying for project-level approval from a public agency. As of the date of this letter, the District has not received an AIA application for this Project. Please inform the project proponent to immediately submit an AIA application to the District to comply with District Rule 9510 so that proper mitigation and clean air design under ISR can be incorporated into the Project’s design.
