Project Update – Bickford Ranch

Placer County’s Bickford Ranch is an approximately 2,000 acre master planned community. There are an estimated 1,890 homes that are slated for construction in the community over the next 15 to 20 years, along with a park, public and private facilities, a school, and open space.

Ghirardelli was selected in July 2021 to provide construction inspection services for the first phase of this project. Scope of work includes mass grading of 1,000,000 CY of cut and fill and an estimated 43,000 CY of export material for the backbone improvements and single-family residential home pads. Other work includes coordination with Placer County Water Agency as they re-route and underground the Caperton Canal, on and off-site improvements for sewer and water, and improvements to the intersection of Sierra College Blvd and future Bickford Ranch Rd.

The Ghirardelli Team consists of Mario Santos and Keith Hixson as on-site Construction Inspectors and Gina Prchlik as the Project Manager.
