Chairman Comstock opens to questions from the Commission. There being none, Chairman Comstock opens the public hearing. City of Grand Terrace Page 2 Packet Pg. 5 A.1 Minutes Grand Terrace Planning Commission/Site and Architectural Review Board November 16, 2017 Burt Cilimazon (neighbor) requests for this area to be zoned differently, perhaps into multi-family or multi-use. He is sandwiched between this property being built and Lewis Properties, which is in the process of building multiple sites and he would also like to build in this area, but would like a different zoning. Chairman Comstock explained that the City would be happy to discuss this further with Mr. Cilimazon. Commissioner Goatcher requested to return to the PowerPoint aerial view and asks Mr. his home. Commissioner Allen inquired when the next scheduled general plan use map update is to occur. Director Molina replied that there is not one currently scheduled, but rather would occur as needed. Chairman Comstock asked if there were any additional comments from the general public and there being none, closed the public hearing and asked for any additional comments from the Commission before deliberation. There being no additional comments, Chairman Comstock asked the Commission if they'd like to entertain a motion.

Giroux, Commissioner SECONDER: Jeffrey Allen, Commissioner AYES: Tom Comstock, Jeffrey Allen, Edward A. Giroux, Gregory A. Goatcher ABSENT: Tara Ceseña C.CONTINUED ITEMS 1. Zoning Code Amendment 17-03 and Zone Change 17-01 Director Molina gave the presentation specifying the requirements of a conditional use permit in this flood plain zoned area. She mentioned that staff did not do a community wide survey, because the testimony that is needed is limited to the affected property owners. Although public testimony was not solicited, notification to the public was provided in the local newspaper. Director Molina pointed out that Vice Chair Ceseña is in favor of splitting the zoning and Amendment 17-03 and Zone Chance 17-01 and recommending the AG-2 Overlay District and New Zoning Chapter 18.56. It achieves the goals for allowing commercial agricultural uses with ranchette housing. Chairman Comstock opens to questions from the Commission. Commissioner Allen mentions that the parcel numbers that they received from the presentation made by Director Molina. He asked which properties are in question. Chairman Comstock opens the public hearing. Scott Heil (representing Mr. Davis from law firm Varner & Brandt) also clarified that the letter to the commissioners with the parcel number had errors. He wanted to reiterate that they do not oppose the adoption of the AG-2 overlay proposal, but do not necessarily support it either. Alternative options as proposed by the Commission would Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Nov 16, 2017 6:30 PM (CONSENT CALENDAR) impact the development options that the owner has been working towards for many years. Resident Katie Guthrie (resident on Vivienda Avenue) wanted to state for the record that she does not approve of the AG-2 overlay. She wants this to be all agricultural. Light industrial is hard on the neighborhood and nothing so far has been neighborhood friendly. City of Grand Terrace Page 4 Packet Pg. 7 A.1 Minutes Grand Terrace Planning Commission/Site and Architectural Review Board November 16, 2017 Resident Janet Rich (11701 Terrace Avenue) stated she is the oldest property owner in this area (1967). She objected to the zoning change back in 1984, in addition to several other neighbors, yet the zoning was changed. Since then nothing fruitful has come about and prefers the zoning to go back to agriculture zoning. She never received notice in the mail regarding the October meeting, neither did her neighbors. She wants all existing buildings to be grandfathered in under agricultural zoning, which was its original zoning. Owners of 24 acres who do not agree with her and her neighbors do not maintain their properties, properties are in 5-foot-tall weeds, and are responsible for several fires due to the significant amount of tumbleweeds. She has addressed this issue with weed abatement, but to no effect. Chairman Comstock acknowledged the tumbleweed code enforcement violation of the surrounding property owners who are trying to get the zoning overlay passed. Resident Janice Makshaoff (21816 Vivienda Avenue) a 20+ year resident has felt like she has had to defend her home on average every 3 years and is sick of it. She commented on the zoning of the last 30 years being light industrial, yet nothing has happened here because it is not feasible. She requested this area to be Ag-Residential as her experience with overlays has not been good. All existing buildings should be grandfathered in as the original zoning was agricultural. She would like staff to work with property owners for future zoning changes and wanted to be notified for all future meetings on this matter. Resident Jason Greeley (12279 Dos Rios Avenue) advocated for zoning the area as Agricultural and shared his experiences from growing up here. Since 1984, the agricultural land has been choked out of Grand Terrace. He expressed that he believes it should be agricultural again because there is nothing else that can be done with it. and is upset that she has not been a part of the planning of this city. In addition to all the negative environmental impacts of the current zoning on agriculture and wildlife, she expressed discontent that the community has not been a part of this zoning process. Although they are not the main property owners, they cycle, walk, and enjoy quality time in the area. She is concerned about the future transportation and environmental impacts. Resident William Mahaney (lives on Vivienda Avenue) stated the he and wife are dead Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Nov 16, 2017 6:30 PM (CONSENT CALENDAR) set against industrial zoning and wants it to revert to the original agricultural zoning. He is concerned about the poor present property management and the tumbleweeds on the 24-acre property. Ron Kemper (1770 N. Arrowhead Avenue) stated he represented Highland Service Corporation / owners of 24 acres of the northern subject properties. He claimed all property owners are local residents who obtained a loan for this property based on the M-2 zoning. He is not opposed to the overlay. City of Grand Terrace Page 5 Packet Pg. 8 A.1 Minutes Grand Terrace Planning Commission/Site and Architectural Review Board November 16, 2017 Resident Bobbie Forbes (Burns Avenue) advocated for five-acre minimum lot sizes, and that subdivision should not be allowed because of the flood plain and power lines pose a danger. She does not want to see development disturb existing residents. It should only be one house on the existing five-acre parcel that has been vacant for a long time. She stated that it may not be the intent to subdivide right now but it could happen in the future and that it could cause mayhem with traffic onto a dirt road without street lights or fire hydrants. Michael Simon, resident, stated the area should all be rezoned agricultural. Stated there is so much infrastructure that needs to be developed in order to be commercial/industrial, that it is cost-prohibitive, and it does not make sense to develop with overlay. Resident Jeffrey McConnell (Walnut Avenue) reiterated he has been fighting this for over a decade. He has practiced real estate for over 40 years - acknowledged that M-2 land is worth more that AG. Criticized the owners of the properties - owner has only built ill the property despite owning it for 14 years. Tumbleweeds were never cleaned up. Recommended that the Council change all 40 acres back to agriculture. Requested that the Commission please grandfather all existing buildings as the originally intended use. He asked the Commission to direct staff to work directly with property owners in the area for the details of the new A-1 zoning. He also asked the City Manager to please realize that this is the last battle and to please listen to the people who live in the area and not staff members that do not live in the town. There being no further testimony, Chairman Comstock closes the public hearing and invites the City Manager to take the floor for thoughts and a response to what citizens have shared. City Manager Duffey explained that the overlay was proposed in order to provide 1-acre ranchettes instead of the area only being 40 acres of green zone. He stated that he is a pro itself to future liabilities. He reassured the Commission that checks and balances existing on the part of the Council and staff ensure that no property is developed in a manner that negatively impacts the surrounding property owners. This overlay, instead, acts as a vehicle for the City to market this area. AG-2 zoning is the best way to methodically have this area come to fruition. Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Nov 16, 2017 6:30 PM (CONSENT CALENDAR) Chairman Comstock opened the agenda item to the Commission for discussion. Commissioner Allen asked John H Douglass and Associates for their professional opinion and requested Mr. Douglass to come to the podium. Consultant John Douglass approached the podium but had nothing additional to share beyond what had already been shared by the City staff. City of Grand Terrace Page 6 Packet Pg. 9 A.1 Minutes Grand Terrace Planning Commission/Site and Architectural Review Board November 16, 2017 want to keep an M-2 zoning and 1/4 who want to revert back to an AG-1 zoning. He does not want to hinder these property owners. Going back to AG-1 would restrict owners that want it M-2. He completed his own research to understand the history of this zoning change in 1984 and felt that previous meetings were given proper prior es. AG-1 is a restrictive zoning that does not allow many options. The overlay would allow more opportunities. He liked the idea of the ability to subdivide property into 1-acre lots and build homes on them. He mentioned that by placing an overlay on this area, as a city, they are officially declaring this area a - solution is an AG-2 overlay as it does not restrict property rights, allows additional options, and allows agricultural uses to continue. He believed that this was the best way to go. He reassured those in attendance that he has been on the Commission when manhole manufacturers and tractor-trailer companies have come in and try to open businesses in this area, that he has remained steadfast in protecting the rights of the citizens who live in the area and their health and safety. He understands that an AG-2 overlay would bring greener businesses into the community. Commissioner Allen referenced a staff report from 8/23/1984 to present the question today. Director Molina confirmed that it is indeed the same area. She clarified that the northern half of the property was not originally agriculturally zone, but rather Flood Plain under the County. When the city completed the general plan update, it was changed to M-2 Flood Plain. Commissioner Goatcher asked when did 1-acre ranchettes come about. Director Molina stated city residents requested the Council to potentially rezone for 1- acre ranchette development and the Council made revisions to move it forward. Chairman Comstock clarified that 1-acre ranchettes were also part of the conversation at the last meeting. City Manager Duffey confirmed that indeed the residents presented the 1-acre ranchettes proposal and not the Council. He explained that the original proposal was Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Nov 16, 2017 6:30 PM (CONSENT CALENDAR) presented to the Council and was focused on turning the area into a green-belt. Although people may have changed their minds from that original proposal, the Council bought into the original proposal and hired a consultant and has been working to move that proposal forward ever since. But it was never the Council that conceptualized the 1- acre ranchettes. Chairman Comstock asked whether there are limitations in the zoning for that idea. City of Grand Terrace Page 7 Packet Pg. 10 A.1 Minutes Grand Terrace Planning Commission/Site and Architectural Review Board November 16, 2017 Director Molina responded that the resolution accompanying the staff report includes a draft chapter for the AG-2 overlay district and identifies the uses that would be permitted and the standards that would be applied. It also requires a conditional use permit which would come before the Commission to evaluate to make determinations regarding use and conditions of approval. Commissioner Allen questioned how M-2 zoning there is there a distinction between green and non-green industry? Director Molina emphasized that the City Council has authority to enact a moratorium, which there is currently one in place, on outdoor industry within the industrial zone districts. This is something that would come back to the Commission and ultimately the City Council with recommendations for determining regulations and/or uses for a green industry. She pointed out that what the staff has put forward before the Commission is the AG-2 overlay and that the Commission if it so chooses can make a different recommendation as their final decision. Chairman Comstock reminded the Commission that the purchase of land in this area for e sense given the soil compaction required and how costly it would be. This alone is a difficult hurdle for development to come in and overcome. Commissioner Goatcher recommended a minimum of 2.5 acres per ranchette, instead of 1- acre ranchettes. Commissioner Allen asked Director Molina if there is the option of separating the property at the railroad access road and rezone the northern portion as M-2 and the southern portion as AG without an underlying M2 zone for those who are adamant for agricultural zoning. Director Molina confirmed this option was presented at the last Commission meeting. Significant public testimony has indicated a desire for AG zoning for the entire area, not just a portion. Chairman Comstock reiterated that citizens want all the acreage's to be AG zoning, not just a portion. Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Nov 16, 2017 6:30 PM (CONSENT CALENDAR) Chairman Comstock made the motion to adopt a resolution recommending that the City Council adopt an environmental addendum and accept zoning code amendment 17-03 and zone change 17-01 amending the zoning code and revising the zoning map related to the AG-2 overlay district. He also added an additional suggestion for the Council to review the lot size for the ranchettes and further motioned for the Council to determine the wisest lot size per ranchette and wants to return this matter to the City Council. Commissioner Goatcher seconded the motion by Chairman Comstock. City of Grand Terrace Page 8 Packet Pg. 11 A.1 Minutes Grand Terrace Planning Commission/Site and Architectural Review Board November 16, 2017 Chairman Comstock acknowledges there has been a motion and a second and asks the Commission to please vote. 1) OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING CONTINUED FROM OCTOBER 19, 2017 TO THE PRESENT DATE TO DISCUSS THE STAFF REPORT; AND 2) ADOPT A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE RECOMMENDING THAT THE CITY COUNCIL ADOPT AN ENVIRONMENTAL ADDENDUM AND ADOPT ZONING CODE AMENDMENT 17-03 AND ZONE CHANGE 17-01 AMENDING THE ZONING CODE AND REVISING THE ZONING MAP RELATED TO THE AGRICULTURAL-2 OVERLAY DISTRICT RESULT: APPROVED \[2 TO 1\] MOVER: Tom Comstock, Chairman SECONDER: Gregory A.

Director Molina reviewed the proposed list of uses and the changes made regarding outdoor uses and the ability to establish standards City of Grand Terrace Page 2 Packet Pg. 20 A.3 Minutes Grand Terrace Planning Commission/Site and Architectural Review Board March 1, 2018 Baron Bettenhausen, Assistant City Attorney stated objectionable words or terms can be difficult to enforce. By defining standards and terms in the Municipal Code, the City can identify a business in a category that will need to go before the Planning Commission and City Council who will then be able to impose conditions to mitigate and address possible issues. Commissioner Allen asked if Staff considers the size of vehicles. Director Molina explained when an application comes in staff reviews the type of use, how much traffic it would generate, noise, operating hours, what roads it will use and through that process, staff looks at what level of improvements are needed, onsite or offsite. Director Molina continued with the presentation for this item. Vice Chair Ceseña asked what the property ratio is, building storage versus outdoor storage. Director Molina stated Staff is not proposing a property/building use ratio. Director Molina continued with the presentation for this item. Tony Harris, Grand Terrace purchased his property in 1997. He spends a great deal of money annually and is opposed to Zoning Code Amendment 17-04 and the affect he believes it will have on his property. Director Molina clarified no zoning changes are being made, only determination on what uses are permitted, uses that require a Conditional Use Permit and those that do not require a Conditional Use Permit. City Attorney Bettenhausen explained that existing tenants can continue to use the property for legal non-conforming uses. When the tenant no longer wishes to continue its business, the new zoning will apply to the new tenant. Discussion was held to consider the recommendation that heavy equipment sales and services fall under the Conditional Use Permit category. Minutes Acceptance: Minutes of Mar 1, 2018 12:00 AM (CONSENT CALENDAR) Commissioner Allen asked why heavy equipment sales and services and lumber yards removed from the M-2 District. General Plan and its build out vision, the City is looking at uses that are more light industry. Bobbie Forbes, Grand Terrace stated she did not receive notification of the public hearing and believed she should have. She would like to see more public input. City of Grand Terrace Page 3 Packet Pg. 21 A.3 Minutes Grand Terrace Planning Commission/Site and Architectural Review Board March 1, 2018 Jeffrey McConnell, Grand Terrace commented on the zoning designations in the area and asked the Planning Commission to consider for the floodplain area to include outdoor storage of non-toxic organic based materials. For the record, Mr. McConnell stated he received a ticket for doing agricultural and on the ticket, it said he had to go get a conditional use permit which he still has but he does not see that under conditional use permit, he sees that under permitted uses. Director Molina explained that the subject property has other overlay districts on it that also apply so it is a separate issue. Chairman Comstock recommended Mr. McConnell go into City Hall and discuss his concerns with Director Molina. City Attorney Bettenhausen explained when a property has an overlay district, the most restrictive provision applies. Discussion was held on whether the City Manager should have the decision-making power regarding what is allowed under interim uses. Janese Makshanoff, Grand Terrace provided her definition of interim. Chairman Comstock closed the public hearing at 8:04 p.m. Chairman Comstock would like to re-open the public hearing at 8:05 p.m. and continue the public hearing to March 22, 2018.

B.4 AGENDA REPORT MEETING DATE:March 22, 2018 TITLE:Zoning Code Amendment 17-04 PRESENTED BY:Sandra Molina, Planning & Development Services Director RECOMMENDATION:1)Continue the Discussion of Proposed Zoning Code Amendment 17-04; 2)Consider Adoption of a Resolution recommending to Council adoption of Zoning Code Amendment 17-04 amending certain chapters of the Zoning Code pertaining to outdoor uses and storage in the Commercial Manufacturing (CM), Restricted Manufacturing (MR) and Industrial (M2) zone districts. PROPOSAL: Zoning Code Amendment 17-04 proposes to amend certain chapters of the Zoning Code as it pertains to outdoor uses and storage in the Commercial Manufacturing (CM), Restricted Manufacturing (MR) and Industrial (M2) zone districts,and also revise definitions relating thereto and propose performance standards applicable city wide. BACKGROUND: On March 1, 2018, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on the proposed code amendments and continued the hearing to a special meeting of March 22, 2018. The code amendments are proposed to address the issues raised with the adoption of a temporary moratorium adopted by the City Council. The temporary moratorium was adopted to temporarily prohibit new or expansion of existing outdoor storage and outdoor manufacturing uses in the CM, MR, and M2 zone districts. The reason for the temporary moratorium is to allow the Zoning Code to be reviewed and revised, as needed, to address impacts from outdoor uses and activities. The agenda report, excluding attachments, from the March 1, 2018, Commission meeting is attached. ANALYSIS: The Zoning Code contains existing chapters for the CM, MR, and M2 zone districts. These are attached as they are currently written as Attachment 2. The zoning code classifies the industrial and manufacturing related districts as CM (Commercial Manufacturing), MR (Restricted Manufacturing) and M2 (Industrial), and the description Packet Pg. 24 B.4 In addi in Attachment 2, as well. The revisions proposed for the definitions clarify and provide further distinction between the three levels of manufacturing. As discussed in the previous meeting, this code amendment is intended to allow the City to place reasonable conditions on outdoor activities, and place development regulations on such uses to ensure adequate screening. The revisions would subject any use which includes outdoor storage or activities to a conditional use permit. If there is no outdoor component, then a CUP would not be required. For instance, if a business is for recreational vehicle storage and the storage is within enclosed buildings, no CUP would be required. If the storage is outdoors, then a CUP would be required. Any outdoor use currently existing could continue to operate as a legal non-conforming use and would not be required to obtain a CUP. However, a CUP would be required if there were an expansion or modification to activities or if the use is abandoned for a uses, but rather to provide a greater level of distinction to determine the appropriate application required moving forward. City Staff met with Mr. Harris to discuss the amendments and the reasoning behind the amendments. While Mr. Harris understands the reasoning, he has concerns on how the amendments could impact existing uses on his property. Mr. Harris owns approximately 8 acres at the southwest boundary of the City, at Main Street. He also expressed concern regarding the requirement for a block screen wall for outdoor uses. It should be noted that the proposed revisions allow the Commission to consider alternative screening methods when topographical conditions present themselves. As proposed, the zone amendment would provide for consideration of interim uses where topographical or other conditions exist within the Floodplain Overlay District located north of Vivienda Avenue. This proposed section has been revised to state that the Planning Commission makes the determination of allowable interim uses, directed by the Commission. In reviewing the codes of other cities, Staff came across this provision for interim uses based on topographical or other environmental constraints. Given recent discussion of the Floodplain Overlay area and its limitations based on existing easements, circulation, topography, and flooding, this type of provision seemed applicable. With regard to outdoor storage of organic materials Staff is recommending that wholesale plant nurseries be permitted in the M2 zone district, and this could be considered organic material. However, Staff would advise the Commission that there was an inquiry for the open stockpiling of wood chips and mulch of various sizes within Packet Pg. 25 B.4 this area. This proposal was one of the reasons that the moratorium was put in place. The Commission should direct Staff as to this type of use. Attachment 3 of this report contains the proposed changes to the Definitions, CM, MR, M2 zoning chapters and the new Performance Standards chapters. Staff kept this attachment in redline format so the Commission can follow the recommended changes to this chapters. Changes from the March 1, 2018, meeting date, are shown in black font with either a double strike through or double underline and are highlighted in yellow. Mailed notices were sent to property owners within the CM, MR and M2 zone districts, and published in the GT News and posted in three public places. The public hearing is being conducted in a workshop format allowing for public discussion of the proposed changes. CONCLUSION: The recommended changes address the issues that were raised at the time that the temporary moratorium was put in place. The distinction between different levels of manufacturing uses and establishment of standards implements the General Plan.

B.4.a AGENDA REPORT MEETING DATE:March 1, 2018 TITLE:Zoning Code Amendment 17-04 PRESENTED BY:Sandra Molina, Planning & Development Services Director RECOMMENDATION:Discuss and Consider Adoption of a Resolution recommending to Council adoption of Zoning Code Amendment 17-04 amending certain chapters of the Zoning Code pertaining to outdoor uses and storage in the Commercial Manufacturing (CM), Restricted Manufacturing (MR) and Industrial (M2) zone districts. PROPOSAL: Zoning Code Amendment 17-04 proposes to amend certain chapters of the Zoning Code as it pertains to outdoor uses and storage in the Commercial Manufacturing (CM), Restricted Manufacturing (MR) and Industrial (M2) zone districts, and also revise definitions relating thereto and propose performance standards applicable city wide. BACKGROUND: On May 23, 2017, the City Council adopted a moratorium temporarily prohibiting the establishment or expansion of outdoor storage and outdoor manufacturing uses in the CM, MR, and M2 zone districts. The moratorium was extended for 12 months. The Council adopted the moratorium due to several inquiries regarding the establishment of outdoor storage and outdoor manufacturing uses. Such inquiries included contractor storage yards, with outdoor storage of construction equipment and materials; tractor/trailer storage; an asphalt manufacturing company that would combine and package materials; and outdoor storage of chipped material. Uses that include outdoor storage and outdoor manufacturing operations within theCity of Grand Terrace present unique challenges because the Grand Terrace Municipal Code does not adequately define or regulate these types of land uses. Manufacturing uses, and some outdoor storage uses, such as contractor storage yards, are permitted within certain zones but are not otherwise regulated. Meaning the zoning code does not contain regulatory or development standards, such as screening, restriction on hours of activity, or adequately define or differentiate between light, medium or heavy manufacturing. Without specific standards and zoning regulations, it is difficult to mitigate the secondary impacts generated by these types of uses. Grand Terrace is 3.2 square miles in size, predominantly made up of residential land Packet Pg. 27 B.4.a uses, with supportive commercial uses and pockets of industrial land and uses. The attached zoning map identifies with a red circle the areas that have CM, MR and M2 zoning that the amendments would regulate in the long term. (A large portion is shown as CM and MR on the zoning map; however, the General Plan identifies the area as Mixed Use and this zoning will change as part of the planned Specific Plan area. The proposed changes would affect this area in the short term.) The I-215/Barton Road Interchange is under construction, the Barton Road Bridge over the UPRR tracks will be reconstructed with an at-grade crossing and a 130-acre specific plan is underway for the properties adjacent (east) to the I-215 Freeway. The specific plan extends Commerce Way from the north to Main Street to the south. Barton Road and Main Street continue to be the two, main entry points in to the City of Grand Terrace. Much of the areas zoned CM, MR and M2 are located along these two highly visible and highly traveled roadways. ANALYSIS Grand Terrace General Plan General Plan. The General Plan serves as the blueprint for future land development and planning within the City limits. The General Plan is the City's vision for the future. The document is used by decision makers, both public and private, to guide them in decisions regarding land use and development throughout the City. The Land Use Element is often considered the most critical element of a General Plan. It provides overall guidance to all properties within the City through the distribution of land uses, by type, including residential, commercial, industrial, institutional, and open space. The Land Use Element translates the City's long range vision for development in the City and provides a Land Use Plan, goals, policies, and implementation programs to achieve that vision. The CM, MR and M2 zone districts are all designated Light Industrial or Floodplain Industrial in the Land Use Element. The Light Industrial designation identifies permitted uses for properties designated as Light Industrial include those uses that can be made compatible with other surrounding uses within the City regarding noise, dust, odors, vibration, glare, air quality, traffic, aesthetics, and hazardous materials. Typical uses may include light manufacturing and assembly, small scale warehousing and distribution, research and development, and administrative and service types of uses. Attachment: Attachment 1 PC Report_March 1, 2018 (2398 : Code Amendment 17-04_Industrial Zones) Properties designated with the Floodplain Industrial designation experience the potential for severe flooding resulting from their proximity to the Santa Ana River. Properties within this designation are planned for ultimate development as light industrial, nonpolluting uses. Proposed uses in the Floodplain Industrial designation must demonstrate that adequate measures can be implemented to ensure that the use is Packet Pg. 28 B.4.a effectively protected from identified flood hazards. The Land Use Element contains the following Goal and Policies relating to industrial uses: Goal 2.4: Provide for a mix of attractive industrial land uses designed to generate employment opportunities. Policy 2.4.1: The City shall promote the development of employment generating, light, nonpolluting industry, within the present land use pattern. Policy 2.4.2: The City shall promote the development of light, non-polluting industrial uses within the City. Policy 2.4.3: Whenever feasible, industrially designated areas shall be master Policy 2.4.4: Buffering to prevent potential land use incompatibilities between industrial areas and other areas shall be given special consideration. Specific features could include increased setbacks, walls, berms, and landscaping. ncy shall assist in the consolidation and assemblage of properties to assure adequate sized quality development with areas designated as light industrial. While the General Plan identifies the vision for the City, the zoning code implements the vision. The zoning districts, permitted uses and standards need to be consistent with the intent of the General Plan, including the intent of the industrial land use designations ANALYSIS: At the time the temporary moratorium was adopted it was anticipated that review of the existing code would include the following: 1. 2. 3. Revise the intent of the CM, MR and M-2 zone districts to align them with the adopted General Plan Attachment: Attachment 1 PC Report_March 1, 2018 (2398 : Code Amendment 17-04_Industrial Zones) 4. Revise the list of permitted and conditionally permitted uses with the CM, MR and M-2 zone districts, with greater distinction of uses that would fall within the manufacturing and outdoor storage categories 6. Revise the zoning code to include land use regulations and operational Packet Pg. 29 B.4.a standards related to manufacturing and outdoor storage uses 7. Determine the permit and review process for these uses. Proposed code revisions Definitions - Attachment 2 Chapter 18.06 Definitions is proposed to be revised to better define and provide greater re those that include assembly, fabrication, or packaging and do not involve container truck traffic or transport bulky items. The resulting product is typically finished and ready for consumption. Light industrial does not generate offensive impacts. Medium manufacturing will have truck traffic, may have secondary impacts and the end product may go to another industrial user, or to another facility. Whereas heavy industrial will have frequent truck traffic, and the end product is semi-finished. Definition new definitions are also shown in Attachment 2. Chapters 18.36 -CM Commercial Manufacturing, 18.39 MR Restricted Manufacturing and 18.40 M2 Industrial zone district Attachment 3 contains the above referenced chapters, in redline format. The approach taken with the revisions to the CM, MR and M2 district were to ensure that the permitted outdoor uses are properly screened. Outdoor uses would require a conditional use permit and would require screen walls and landscaping, whereas the same use contained completely indoors would not require a conditional use permit. Manufacturing uses are only allowed in fully enclosed buildings. For all three chapters, proposed revisions to the development standards include provisions for landscape setbacks along public streets and when adjacent to residential uses; screening requirements for outdoor storage, and a general prohibition on uses that include the storage of hazardous and/or flammable material, such pallet yards and other wood products, and tire storage. CM zone district - For this chapter, very minor changes have been made to the list of permitted and conditionally permitted uses. In this zone district, C2 uses are allowed and this stays consistent. Attachment: Attachment 1 PC Report_March 1, 2018 (2398 : Code Amendment 17-04_Industrial Zones) MR zone district - Again, in this chapter, uses that tend to have an outdoor component such as building supplies sales and public storage facilities (mini storage) are permitted without a CUP when storage is indoors. Where outdoors, then a CUP is required. A major change for this zone district is to allow uses listed in the CM zone, within this Packet Pg. 30 B.4.a zone district. This would allow for C2 and CM uses. Inclusion of public utility uses is also proposed. M2 zone district - Consistent throughout out is the distinction in permitting (CUP or no CUP) when uses with storage are proposed, as discussed above. In this zone district, public utility uses are included. This change is appropriate given that SCE has facilities in this district. Staff is also recommending the inclusion of wholesale plant nurseries and recreational vehicle storage. In the City there is one area zoned M2 that also has a Floodplain Overlay District. This area has topographical and other natural challenges, as well as easement constraints. Staff is recommending a provision that would allow for interim use standards, that would allow lesser development standards for uses that are interim. The determination as to whether a use is interim is made by the City Manager. New Chapter 18.74 Performance Standards New chapter 18.74 is proposed to establish performance standards applicable to all properties and uses within the City. The standards cover such items as noise, vibration, odors, discharges into sewer/storm drains. Most zoning codes have a chapter or section that covers these types of standards, so it would be reasonable for the Grand Terrace to contain such standards in the zoning code. Additionally, in the applicability statement, it is states that the City can place conditions of approval to ensure conformance with the performance standards. CONCLUSION: The recommended changes address the issues that were raised at the time that the temporary moratorium was put in place. The distinction between light, medium and heavy manufacturing uses allows staff and users to determine the appropriate zone district the use is allowed in. The development standards address the concerns relating to screening outdoor uses, and aesthetics are addressed through landscape setback requirement.
