Proposed Ordinance to repeal the Cannabis Background Clearance Badge (CBCB) program: Calaveras County is proposing to repeal Chapter 9.22 of Calaveras County Code in order to repeal the CBCB Program. This will require concurrent changes to the cannabis permitting programs in the zoning code (Title 17). Section 17.91.090(C), and Section 17.95.080(C) of Calaveras County Code currently require applicants for cannabis permits to comply with Chapter 9.22. Because the proposed changes will amend the zoning code, the repeal of these sections must be heard by the Planning Commission. Per 15168(e) of CEQA, the proposed activity is within the scope of the program approved in that EIR, and the program EIR adequately describes the activity for purposes of CEQA.

Proposed Oak Woodlands Ordinance: Calaveras County contains four of the state's five identified hardwood rangeland habitat types including: (a) Valley Oak Woodlands, (b) Blue Oak/Foothill Pine Woodlands, (c) Blue Oak Woodlands, and (d) Montane Hardwood Forests. California’s oak woodlands perform numerous important ecosystem services including scenic beauty, erosion prevention, improving water quality and infiltration, regulating water flow in watersheds, providing habitat for bird and animal species, increasing biodiversity, carbon sequestration, as well as improving soil health. Oaks are healthy for rangelands for many of these same reasons, plus they provide shade for grazing animals and increase soil water storage for a longer “green” period. The decrease in oaks has been attributed to many factors including overgrazing, fire suppression, excessive ground squirrel and gopher activity, invasive species, poor management practices and human development. The California Oak Foundation projects that over 1 million acres of woodland will be lost to development in the upcoming 30 years.
For these reasons, the County of Calaveras must do its part to protect the species by passing an Oak Woodlands Mitigation Ordinance. This draft ordinance has been reviewed by the County’s Hardwood Advisory Committee.

PLANNING COMMISSION
NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
LEAD AGENCY: Calaveras County Building Department, 891 Mountain Ranch Rd., San Andreas, CA 95249
Proposed Ordinance to repeal the Cannabis Background Clearance Badge (CBCB) program: Calaveras County is proposing to repeal Chapter 9.22 of Calaveras County Code in order to repeal the CBCB Program. This will require concurrent changes to the cannabis permitting programs in the zoning code (Title 17). Section 17.91.090(C), and Section 17.95.080(C) of Calaveras County Code currently require applicants for cannabis permits to comply with Chapter 9.22. Because the proposed changes will amend the zoning code, the repeal of these sections must be heard by the Planning Commission. An addendum to the cannabis program EIR will be prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The proposed activity is within the scope of the program approved in that EIR, and the program EIR adequately describes the activity for purposes of CEQA.
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Calaveras County Planning Commission will conduct a public hearing on October 26, 2023. at 9:00 a. m. or soon thereafter to consider the above referenced ordinance. The public hearing will be held in the Calaveras County Board of Supervisors Chambers, Government Center, 891 Mountain Ranch Road, San Andreas, California.
Pursuant to Government Code 65009, if anyone challenges the above listed issues in a court of law, the challenge may be limited to raising only those issues you or someone else raise at the public hearing described in this notice, or in written correspondence delivered to the Commission, at or prior to, the public hearing.
