A request by Willow Creek NewCo. LLC for a Minor Use Permit to allow for the phased expansion of an existing agricultural processing facility (olive oil and wine). Construction is proposed to include demolition and replacement of an existing 6,946 sf barn and two new buildings (2,600 sf and 3,000 sf) that will include processing areas, tasting room, retail sales, commercial kitchen, office, and storage. The project also includes a request for 25 temporary events annually with no more than 200 guests per event and to allow for the processing of off-site olives. The applicant is requesting modifications to ordinance standards to allow adjustments to the required setbacks, and an increase to the limits of retail sales area. The project will result in the disturbance of approximately 3.5 acres on a 120 acre parcel. The project will utilize portions of the existing access and infrastructure.
