Council members and staff responded that the city would investigate code compliance and encouraged immediate reporting.
Sue Covey described repeated disturbances from a property she identified as 2217 Glenaire Court. \"Since this property was purchased in October 2021, it has been continuously rented out through Airbnb,\" Covey said. She said vehicles often parked throughout the street, garbage accumulated and two large parties caused late-night disturbances; she asked the council to investigate whether the property complied with Rancho Cordova's short-term rental rules requiring a permit and primary-residence occupancy.
Another neighbor, Sean (Shawn) Mongan, described single-family residents on Gran Air Court experiencing repeated parking conflicts and noise from long-term contractor crews using an Airbnb as lodging. \"They'd often arrive with probably 4 or 5 large trucks that would only fit where 3 trucks could go,\" Mongan said. He said some stays lasted three to four weeks and asked the council to step in where neighborhood covenants do not.
City staff and a council member told the speakers that staff had already been engaged: the city manager noted that residents had spoken with \"Mr. Russ Ducharme earlier today\" and pointed out Ducharme was available in the chambers to speak with them after the meeting. A council member also emphasized the need for residents to call and report problems promptly so staff and police can respond; Vice Mayor Gary Gatewood said, \"If in doubt, call ... don't wait 4 years, right, or even 4 days. Maybe wait 4 minutes, then call, and just let us know what the problem is,\" urging immediate reporting to accelerate enforcement or policy response.
Council and staff referenced existing short-term rental ordinance requirements and encouraged the residents to follow up with code enforcement staff. The speakers were advised to meet with code enforcement staff (Russ Ducharme) immediately after the hearing for next steps.
The council took no formal action during the meeting but the record shows staff were asked to investigate potential code or permit violations and to work with law enforcement on immediate disturbances.

Dr. Dennis Detillion, who conducted the survey with city staff, said 350 residents were surveyed by phone in May and the results were broadly consistent with the two prior survey cycles. \"Overall, there's a very high level of satisfaction among residents for living in Rancho Cordova,\" Detillion said, noting that 88% of respondents agreed they could have a good quality of life in the city (90% in 2023, 84% in 2021).
Key findings from the presentation included: 75% of respondents rated police services in their neighborhood as \"very good\" or \"good,\" 82% were satisfied with trash disposal and recycling, and 82% said they were satisfied with the city's website and online services (an increase from 78% in 2023). By contrast, only 31% rated the city's handling of homelessness as \"very good\" or \"good,\" while 37% rated it \"poor\" or \"very poor.\" Respondents also said streets/ infrastructure improvements and attracting quality businesses were top reasons the city's image had improved.
Staff noted shifts in how residents contact the city: 39% used online services for inquiries in 2025 (up from 33% in 2023), while in-person/telephone contacts fell. Detillion cautioned that some newer questions (for example, rating progress on the city mission/vision) may require revision for clearer measurement in future cycles.
Council members used the presentation to identify follow-up areas. Several asked staff about targeted actions to improve residents' sense of safety and whether follow-up survey questions could probe which concrete measures (for example, lighting, police presence, or navigation services) would make respondents feel safer. Staff agreed to consider more granular follow-up questions in future surveys and noted the city has already increased technology and enforcement tools in response to certain crimes.
The council did not take action on the survey but asked staff to bring additional detail for items flagged as lower-rated (homelessness response, code enforcement, business attraction and beautification) and to consider whether to increase survey frequency or expand to annual tracking.

Michelle Mengeff, the city finance manager, briefed the council on the financing item and said the bonds would be special-tax bonds secured solely by special taxes collected within the CFD boundaries for Improvement Area 3. She noted a typographical error in the resolution included in the meeting packet (it referenced Improvement Area Number 2), and said the correct references to Improvement Area Number 3 were made elsewhere in the financing documents.
\"The correct reference was made throughout the documents, so it is just typographical,\" Mengeff said during her presentation and asked council to adopt the corrected resolution.
No public comment was received on the item. The council moved to adopt the resolution authorizing the sale of bonds and approving related documents, including the fiscal agent agreement and the preliminary official statement. A roll-call vote recorded Council Member David Sander, Council Member Joe Little, Council Member Linda Budge, Vice Mayor Gary Gatewood and Mayor Pulapati voting in favor. There were no no votes or abstentions.
Mengeff and staff said these bonds are secured by special taxes levied within the CFD and do not constitute a general obligation of the city; the resolution authorizes use of proceeds to finance infrastructure and impact fees tied to the Ranch project and approves related procedural documents for sale.
City staff will finalize bond sale documents and proceed with the sale process consistent with the resolution and fiscal agent agreement approved by the council.

City staff presented four implementation scenarios for the Mills Crossing site: full build-out of the entitled $120 million project (three buildings including a potential 36,000-square-foot community health building), reduced build-out (buildings 1 and 2), a site-only infrastructure build using about $9 million in grant funds, and a pause/no-project option. Staff said no financial commitments were required at this council step and stressed that grant deadlines — notably an infrastructure grant with an expenditure deadline of Dec. 31, 2026 — require near-term direction if the city wants to use the money.
After public comment from two speakers urging a pause or reconsideration, council members discussed tradeoffs including program costs, parking and feasibility, the project's intended role in revitalizing Folsom Boulevard, and the risk the Surplus Land Act could pose if city-owned land remained undeveloped. Council members expressed mixed views: some preferred pausing or seeking a private partner for full build-out, while others emphasized using the infrastructure grant to resolve on-site utility and drainage issues.
Council moved and approved the motion to pursue scenario 3 — site infrastructure work only — and to return to council with risk analysis and next steps. The motion directed staff to proceed with amending the predevelopment/project agreements as needed, work with permitting and utilities, and start a guaranteed maximum price process if applicable with the project consultant. A subsequent staff report was requested addressing Surplus Land Act risks, options for future uses of parcels, and outreach to potential partners.
Key clarifying figures presented by staff: the city holds approximately $9 million in site-infrastructure grant funding and an additional $7 million behavioral-health grant for Building 1; staff estimated Building 1 as a $31 million structure in the full-build scenario and described the overall entitled project at roughly $120 million (scenario 1) or $105 million without the event building (scenario 2). Staff emphasized scenario 3 would create the entitled parcels and leave community facilities, plaza and parking for future decisions.
The council vote on the motion was recorded by roll call with Council Member Linda Budge, Vice Mayor Gary Gatewood, Council Member David Sander, Council Member Joe Little and Mayor Pulapati voting yes; no members voted no or abstained. Council members asked staff to come back with a timeline for site work and the legal risks and procedures relevant to surplus land and future disposition, and to accelerate outreach to potential tenants or partners while completing infrastructure work.
","After a multi-year planning effort, the council directed staff to pursue site infrastructure work under available grants (about $9 million) rather than build the full $120 million mixed-use project now; council asked staff to return with details about Surplus Land Act risks and next steps.",{"_33":113,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":114,"_41":115,"_43":116,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6133193,"Rancho Cordova council approves Jackson Properties warehouse design amendment, height exception",0,5252000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5705652-b9752e5cba52eb93d2f2783bbf625367&start=5252&end=5252","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5705652-b9752e5cba52eb93d2f2783bbf625367/thumbnail_5252000.jpg","/articles/6133193/California/Rancho-Cordova-council-approves-Jackson-Properties-warehouse-design-amendment-height-exception","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6133193-16268cba0fb2a6d12161ff60b56b19fa/orig.mp4?Expires=1770414241&Signature=OxLBw4yF15H0GIp-9iRmuEFI1zv4oe7tOy7PLWvefDPPucLQHxHm5ZT-qKR7Twq6DepyKXuZSA-abxRdJkXq4mR-At-FV8nn2xGEXetmoVlIGPA-YrRFg4CJ9JFJR1uAB-ioHNW5DY-Qp8IoCllIFNCW0qo1cfKnmP5p3nffMjVx2xGE4WYpBXSAPhbk6-NIubgIJ~m8AyltATCQmbClnDFJ5i1-2yApWBk3~pqkAs3ZKFt8~l0WkpalzP5tkCg3fITd8OXnUD0RW9AsX20RdPXiDErRxOjajwU1-QiukdrNbmNlHcSjaezE1Rg3I9dYFh59~CCNwEswK-Y9m1Gd0w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Rancho Cordova — The City Council voted unanimously Sept. 3 to approve an amended major design review and a height exception for the Jackson Properties warehouse project in the Mather Field Special Planning Area. The amendment reorients the building, relocates loading docks to the rear and reduces the building footprint by about 4,000 square feet.
Nick Sosa of the city planning department presented the amendment and the requested height exception, saying the application reduces the previously approved height while still seeking to exceed the 40-foot limit \"by approximately 3 and a half feet\" to allow roof and tower features. Sosa said the project was reviewed under the Mather Field Special Planning Area and found consistent with the area plan; staff determined it was exempt from further CEQA review under section 15183.
The council heard 1 public commenter, James Garcia, who identified himself as a resident of Stone Creek, and said he supported the revised plan because the location and screening made it appropriate. \"This one's actually where it should be,\" Garcia said during public comment.
Several council members and staff discussed truck routing and rooftop equipment screening before the vote. Council member Linda Budge urged that roof-mounted HVAC units be screened, saying an existing nearby warehouse exposed its units \"like a sore thumb.\" Albert Stricker of Public Works said truck routing would vary by tenant and that the most direct route to the freeway would likely be via Mather Field Road.
Council members then moved to adopt the resolution approving the Jackson Properties major design review amendment and height exception, subject to conditions of approval and the project plans. A roll-call vote recorded Council Member David Sander, Council Member Joe Little, Council Member Linda Budge, Vice Mayor Gary Gatewood and Mayor Pulapati voting in favor; there were no recorded no or abstain votes.
The approval allows the applicant to proceed with the revised design and the larger number of rear loading docks (18 below-grade docks and six at-grade roll-up doors) while requiring landscaping, screening walls and other conditions described in the staff report. Staff and the applicant will complete any remaining conditions of approval and building permit processes.
The project site fronts Peter A. McEwen Boulevard adjacent to Old Placerville Road and is surrounded by existing office uses, including nearby buildings occupied by the California Office of Emergency Services. The applicant did not identify a tenant at the meeting; staff reviewed the project as a warehouse/light industrial use for trip-generation purposes.
Council members said they supported the plan because it placed heavy operations away from the public frontage and improved the site's street-facing appearance. The city will finalize permit conditions and monitor compliance with the approved screening and landscape requirements.
","The City Council approved a revised site plan and a modest height exception for a proposed warehouse near Mather Field, moving loading docks to the rear and reducing overall square footage from the previously approved design.","actionData","errors"]
