Jens & Claire Sund Coastal Development Permit Assessor Parcel Numbers (APN) 403-031-071 Record No.: PLN-2020-16392 Mitchell Road / Eureka area A Coastal Development Permit (CDP) is requested to authorize construction of an approximately 1,800 single-family residence on a vacant parcel. The 2.78-acre property was previously developed with a manufactured home within the same location as the proposed new residence. A prior Coastal Development Permit (CDP-06-25) was approved in 2007 for construction of a new home on the property but has since expired. In addition to re-approving new residential development on the parcel, the current Coastal Development Permit request seeks after-the-fact approval of various remediation measures taken to address issues from a 2009 violation (VIO-09-158) involving the unpermitted placement of fill on the property within the 100-foot buffer of a nearby wetland and seasonal watercourse. Following discovery of the violation, a remediation and mitigation plan was developed for the violation and implemented without the benefit of state and local review. The plan included various erosion control measures, the removal and re-contouring of perched fills from the top of an embankment, hillside stabilization measures and a revegetation plan for the riparian and wetland buffer area, and off-site mitigation involving enhancement of nearby wetland habitat on an adjacent parcel (APN 403-031-072). Additionally, in 2013 the parcel was re-acquired by the former owner and the manufactured home was removed around that time. The proposed new residence will be approximately 18 feet in height and will be served by a new on-site wastewater treatment system to be developed on the parcel. Water is already provided to the property by the Humboldt Community Services District. Four redwood trees are proposed to be removed and minimal grading is expected to be required during residential development of the site.
