Project Summary ​

Project Location 

The project site is situated on the north side of American River Drive, the west side of Jacob Lane, and the east side of Piccadilly Circle on the Jesuit High School Campus, in the Carmichael/Old Foothill Farms community of unincorporated Sacramento County.  Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) is 289-0210-045.

Hearing Summaries

The Planning Commission met on March 11, 2024 and voted (5 Yes – 0 No) to approve the proposed project with an amendment to Condition 10, removing the word evening; deletion of Condition 12; and an amendment to Condition 19, adding the intersection of Tennyson Way and Marlborough Way to the list of streets that will be posted with “no event parking” signs during events. Mailed notices were sent 10 days prior to the Planning Commission hearing to property owners, tenants, and identified interested persons within 1,500 feet of the project site.

On June 4, 2024, the Board of Supervisors (Board) denied an appeal of the Planning Commission’s approval of the Use Permit Amendment and Design Review. The Board approved the Use Permit Amendment with several conditions (Conditions 11-25) meant to ensure that nuisances and impacts experienced by nearby residents are avoided (Attachment 2). Condition 24 requires an Annual Report to serve as a reporting mechanism to ensure that the project proponent complies with project conditions and to gauge potential nuisances and impacts experienced by nearby residents from the stadium lights. The purpose of the Annual Report is to allow the Board to initiate revocation or modification of the Use Permit Amendment if deemed necessary.​

​Next Steps

Pursuant to Condition 24, an annual report will be submitted for three years following the effective date of the Use Permit Amendment. This includes the following academic years:

  • Year 1 – Academic Year 2024/2025
  • Year 2 – Academic Year 2025/2026
  • Year 3 – Academic Year 2026/2027​

​Condition 24

Staff will send a mailed notice to tenants and property owners within 1,500 feet of the subject property. The mailed notice will provide 30 days for public review.
