Bullert contractor storage yard rezone near Redding Regional Airport
A local electrical business wants to expand outdoor storage onto two vacant parcels near the airport, which requires changing the zoning and general plan from commercial to industrial. The Airport Land Use Commission flagged a technical inconsistency with the airport plan, so the City Council will need a two-thirds vote to overrule it. Commissioners added a 50-foot storage height limit and fencing requirements to protect nearby homes across Clover Creek.
Planning Commission appointments
The mayor's picks — Kent Manuel and Josh Johnson — were confirmed, but one speaker objected that Johnson, a local contractor, has a conflict of interest. Council members pushed for a bigger applicant pool for city commissions.
