Planning Commission - 9/14/26
Episode 269
Tuesday, 15 September, 2026
The Sacramento County Planning Commission met on Monday, September 14, 2026. Roll call was taken with Members Munoz, Rockenstein, Virga, and Chair Borja present, establishing a quorum. Item 1: Aspen Six Use Permit Amendment (PLNP 2025-00262) The main business item was a request for a use permit amendment for the 752-acre Aspen Six surface mining site, located on the north side of Jackson Road, approximately 2,000 feet east of Bradshaw Road, within the Vineyard and Rancho Cordova communities. • Project History & Request: Mining has occurred on the property since early 1999 and is now complete. A 2017 permit amendment previously authorized three additional years of mining and eight years of reclamation wor. The applicant requested a four-year time extension to complete all remaining site reclamation work, replacing entitlement Condition No. 69 to set a final completion deadline of December 31, 2030. The amendment strictly prohibits any additional mining on the site. • Reclamation Plan & Environmental Review: The site will be returned to agricultural use, consistent with the approved reclamation plan. The project is Categorically Exempt under CEQA guidelines (Class 1, Section 15301) because it involves solely a time extension with no new buildings or mining proposed. Both the Vineyard CPAC (July 9) and the Cordova CPAC (July 16) recommended approval. • Commission Action: No public comments were received. Commissioners disclosed brief ex parte contacts where the applicant reached out prior to the meeting to offer clarification. The Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval of the amendment to the Board of Supervisors. Administrative & Upcoming Meetings • Reports: The Planning Director and Clerk's office had no items to report. • Next Meeting: The next Planning Commission meeting is scheduled for September 28, 2026. • Adjournment: The meeting adjourned at 5:39 p.m.
