Project #U24-0017 (Singh) rezone

Property owner said the family has no plans for a truck terminal and wants a parts store with tenants already lined up, bringing revenue and jobs to Sutter County.

Former supervisor and consultant said the applicant has followed every rule, noted truck yards were ironically allowed across the highway, and voiced full support for the commercial project.

Echoed that there will be no truck yards, said the parts-retail use fits the 99 corridor near Barry School and would bring the county revenue and jobs.

Longtime area resident opposed to industrial zoning, citing the applicant's past notices of violation and lawsuit, truck yards creeping into her neighborhood, and traffic and fumes near Barry School where her grandchildren attend.

Neighborhood resident would support the project if a no-truck-yard condition were in writing, recalling a bitter fight to remove a past truck yard and concerns about a retention pond next to the school playground.

Nearby mother of two Barry School students opposed the project, citing dangerous Walnut Avenue/Highway 99 traffic, a deteriorating road serving the school, and safety concerns for children walking to school.
