Brief Summary of the Cannery Park Project
In June and July, 2006, Lewis Planned Communities, a member of the Lewis Group of Companies, conducted neighborhood meetings to present a proposed concept plan for the “Cannery Park” project and to receive comments and questions.
Cannery Park is a proposed master planned neighborhood of 100 acres within the northern city limits of the City of Davis. The property, formerly the location of the Hunt-Wesson tomato cannery, is north of Covell Boulevard and east of the Southern Pacific Railroad line and the F Street drainage channel. Cannery Park is proposed to provide a mix of single family homes, open space, a multi-purpose drainage system, a neighborhood park, linear parks, bikeways, offices, a public/semi-public land use area, and a small neighborhood-oriented retail/office use within a mixed use core area. 610 residential units are proposed.
Initial applications to the City include a general plan amendment, a Planned Development rezoning, a tentative map, an affordable housing plan, development agreement, and preparation of an environmental impact report. Subsequent applications will include subdivision maps and design reviews on applicable sites.
