Maps

Maps are an important, perhaps the most important, way to look at land use issues, and the county zoning map has been principal representation of the ordinances used to protect the agricultural economy these last 45 years. Other maps are beginning to crop up in this discussion of the future of Napa county and I will start putting them all in one place here.

Additional interactive maps on the site:

SCR Map and tables of winery use permits approved and under review
SCR Map and table of new vineyards under review in the county (dormant)

Napa Soda Springs Property Map

Bill Hocker - Nov 10, 2022 10:27AM Share #2289

In 2022 RH, formerly Restoration Hardware, purchased the Napa Soda Springs property with the intent to revive, and probably expand, the resort that existed there at the turn of the 20th Century, the ruins of which still exist today. The corporate entity of the project is called 1990 Soda Canyon Road LLC.

Amber Manfree has created a map of the property showing it's developable areas.

SCR will be covering the development of this project on this page. It has the potential to generate as much concern as the Walt Ranch project has.

State Minimum Fire Safe Regulations apply to this area.

Urbanization of the Ag Preserve

When does preservation not mean preservation? When building projects and parking lots are called "agriculture".

The Land Trust was produced by an outside contractor, Greening.org. I'm not sure whether or not they continue to update it.

Atlas Fire Maps

2017 Atlas Fire maps showing the extent, progression by day, and sequence of reopening areas to residents. The deep indentation in the upper edge of the fire line encircles the whole of the residences on the Foss Valley Plateau at the end of Soda Canyon Road

More Napa vineyard/winery info than you will ever need

Amber Manfree - Oct 27, 2015 12:03PM Share #1061

..one more find I just turned up - a map designed for wine makers that shows locations of vineyards with grapes available for purchase. Not directly helpful in any way that's obvious, but a really interesting project nonetheless.

Bill Hocker adds:

The hoard of information given each and every vineyard block in the county is mind-numbing. Wine freak meets database freak.

Napa's 700 Wineries

The map below is not mine - just something I found on the internet. They might be using the free, open source dataset from David Thompson's Napa Wine Project website
which lists 1,100+ commercial wine producers in Napa. Even Draselle's place is in their list, so a lot of that may be low-impact, small places that happen to have a permit.
