On October 27, 2026, staff gave an informational presentation on the History of the Nine Mill Hill Ranch. The project site is located in Northern Tehama County, west of Interstate 5, between Red Bluff and Redding. The project site consists of approximately 3,320 acres and 11 parcels.
In 1992 the county approved a plan for approximately 1,500 homes with commercial uses and golf and certified the EIR. In 1994 a modified resort property was approved with a subsequent EIR. In October of 2006 Board of Supervisors certified a new EIR and approved the General Plan Amendment, Specific Plan and Development Agreement. The Development Agreement was executed on November 16, 2006, with a 20-year term.
The Specific Plan and Development Agreement consists of approximately 3,700 homes on over approximately 967 acres, 1,500 acres of open space, 18-hole golf course, approximately 67 acres of commercial mixed used (which includes approximately 8 acres for medical), and public facilities which include a fire and emergency services site; sewer, water, and drainage.
