MANTECA'S FUTURE
Plan to include the transfer station in the future growth of Manteca
City of Stockton has jurisdiction over the Lovelace Materials Recovery Facility and Transfer Station within a mile of Del Webb between Manteca Airport Way and Union Road.
Deputy Mayor Steve DeBrum told the Economic Development Committee on Wednesday that his city is exploring the possibilities of developing this area north of Roth Road as an urban reserve.
An analysis of the transfer station was included in the Future Land Use Strategy report by Economic Development Manager Don Smail.
Located in Manteca, the transfer station is part of the Expand Northern sphere of influence. He noted that the expansion and modernization of Union Pacific's Intermodal Station could expand the industrial area along French Camp Road in Area 2.
It also included securing the Properly Zoned Northern Land Area for development, plus an industrial spine road connecting to STAA routes for large trucks, linked logically to the Future Land Use Strategy.
Among other things, Manteca is working on coordinating, designing, promoting and developing STAA truck routes along the local interstates and highways with Caltrans and San Joaquin County.
In addition, he suggested the City construct underpasses for trains, using grade separators in the middle of town to help move motorists and goods haulers.
No separators exist in Manteca's 11 or 12 rail crossings. According to Smail, the length of train cars will likely increase with the expansion of the intermodal facility in Lathrop (along Lathrop Road).
To meet the growing demands of the community, the Future Land Use Subcommittee met from July 18 to September 17 to review places within the city limits and the sphere of influence for land-use designation and zoning.
There are over 8000 entitled lots within the city limits zoned for housing, with the current rate of production going up to 650 units per year in the next 10 to 15 years.
Subcommittee members agreed, however, to look at future land use for housing development beyond 15 years.
There is a need for more affordable housing, both in rental and owner-occupied properties, condominiums and townhouses.
Commercial development is currently feasible in Manteca due to the availability of land and buildings. The Subcommittee was concerned about the vacant commercial spaces at the Promenade Shops / Bass Pro Shopping Center but noted the new opportunity for adjacent development at Union Crossing in particular, the recent commitment of Living Spaces 130000 square feet furniture store on the new extension on Atherton Road and the development taking place on Daniels Street just east of Airport Way and abutting the Highway 120 Bypass.
Located near Eight Mile Road in north Stockton, this 9-acre parcel was identified as an office building complex of the same type found at the AG Spanos Co. building in north Stockton.
Currently, there are no plans for Austin Road Business Park in town's southeast area.
On the master plan, the area is listed as an industrial prospect.
When the area is used for housing, DeBrum hopes it will be part of Manteca Unified School District, not Ripon Unified School District.
The Economic Development Committee approved the Future Land Use Strategy report and forwarded to City Council the plan for adjusting Manteca's northern sphere of influence (north of Roth Road and the transfer station) and railroad grade separators.
