Sywest Industrial Project - Case No. 170121-DP

Sywest Industrial Project - Case No. 170121-DP

The City of Goleta has chosen to approve an alternative design from the one originally approved called “Alternative 2: 100-Foot Streamside Protection Area Setback” (“Alternative 2”) which has fewer impacts than the original project. The components of Alternative 2 include: • Demolition of the existing drive-in theater, including the freestanding movie screen, concessions stand, projector building, two drive-through ticket booths, one walk-in ticket booth, and an agricultural box, and removal of one of the dewatering wells. • Construction of a 70,594 square foot industrial warehouse building with 60,939 square feet of landscaping, 101 parking spaces, six loading zones, and 10 bicycle parking spaces. The maximum building height would be 35 feet measured from the finished grade with the site being raised 4-6 feet to elevate the finished floor of the building out of the floodplain. The industrial warehouse building could be divided into up to four sections and would be available for use by up to four tenants. • Observation of the 100’ Streamside Protection Area buffer from San Jose Creek • Access to and from the project site would continue to be provided from South Kellogg Avenue via an existing access road that runs along the northeast project boundary. The east curb of the existing driveway would be widened in order to provide an adequate maneuvering area for delivery trucks to enter and exit the project site. • Stormwater runoff from the majority of the project site would be directed to a detention basin constructed at the southern border of the development area with a new 18-inch outfall to be constructed in the existing San Jose Creek concrete channel wall. Stormwater runoff from the northeastern portion of the project site would be directed to a vegetated drainage swale located along the eastern side of the entry driveway prior to discharge to the existing storm drain outlet located approximately 115 feet south of the intersection of South Kellogg Avenue and the entry driveway. • The project site is within a mapped 100-year floodplain. Between 4 to 6 feet of fill would be used to elevate the proposed building above the 100-year floodplain elevation. Development of the proposed project would require approximately 600 cubic yards (CY) of soil cut and approximately 38,000 CY of soil fill.
