NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT the Colusa County Board of Supervisors will conduct a Public Hearing on December 14, 2021 at 9:30 a.m. in the County Board of Supervisors’ Chambers at 546 Jay Street, Suite 108, Colusa, CA, 95932 to consider a Zoning Text Amendment (#PD-21-03) to amend the zoning code of Colusa County by adding a new definition in Section 44.0.10 Definitions as follows:

Tiny Home.   A Tiny Home is a structure that meets the definition of a Tiny House in Appendix “Q” of the 2019 California Residential Code.  A Tiny Home (Park Trailer) located outside of a County and State approved Mobile Home and/or Special Occupancy Parks is considered an approved type of accessory dwelling unit if the following criteria are met: (1) All utilities are connected to County approved systems under an issued County permit; (2) The wheels and tongue are removed, and the structure is supported by a County approved foundation system for which a building permit has been issued; (3) The exterior design shall include typical residential design elements so that the structure resembles a residential structure and not a recreational vehicle.  Such design elements shall include but not limited to slope roofs, roof material, siding material, window details and the like to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director; and (4) Skirting shall be installed which matches/complements the exterior of the structure and screens the underside chassis and foundation system to the satisfaction of the Community Development Director.

Pursuant to Title 14, Article 19 of the California Code of Regulations, the project is considered exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15305(a) Minor Alteration to Land Use Limitations because the project consists of adding a new allowable residential housing type which is considered a minor land use change. 

Documentation and information regarding the project may be obtained at the Community Development Department, 1213 Market Street, Colusa, CA or by calling (530) 458-0480.   If you have questions, concerns, or would like to submit comments regarding this matter you may do so to: Greg Plucker, Community Development Director, 1213 Markey Street, Colusa, CA (530)458-0480, or by e-mail at gplucker@countyofcolusa.com.  Additional documentation is available for review in accordance with Agenda Scheduling Deadlines at the Office of the Clerk of the Board, 547 Market Street, Ste. 102, Colusa, CA (530)458-0508.
