192 ORDINANCE NO, 192
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE, CALIFORNIA,
AMENDING THE GRAND TERRACE ZONING CODE BY ADDING
CHAPTER 18.84 PERTAINING TO REGULATIONS AND PROCEDURES
FOR ADMINISTRATIVE CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS
WHEREAS, many times the nature of a particular request requiring a conditional use
permit suggests that the extensive review of a regular conditional use permit with a public hearing
is not warranted; and
WHEREAS, an expedited conditional use permit process for certain qualified uses would
help small businesses and further the City's planning and economic development goals; and
WHEREAS, there are several sites in the City with existing buildings having suites of
limited area where the requirement for a public hearing for a conditional use does not seem
appropriate given the size and nature of the proposed use; and
WHEREAS, several other jurisdictions in the State of California have adopted similar
administrative procedures to review and approve minor conditional use permits without setting the
matter for a public hearing; and
WHEREAS,the proposed criteria to determine whether a conditional use qualifies for an
administrative review and approval will insure that no adverse impacts will result to the surrounding
area,the community or the environment; and,
WHEREAS, the proposed criteria will insure that the larger, major kinds of projects
requiring a conditional use will only be reviewed through the regular, conditional use permit
requirements, including a public hearing, of Chapter 18.83 of the Zoning Code; and
WHEREAS, the City of Grand Terrace desires to expedite all of its case processing
procedures where possible; and
WHEREAS, a Negative Declaration was prepared by the Community and Economic
Development Department and duly posted for public review and recommended for approval by the
Planning Commission on February 17, 2000 at a publicly noticed meeting; and
WHEREAS,the following findings have been set forth in the Staff Report to the Planning
Commission of the City of Grand Terrace:
1. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan in that the expedited and
streamlined administrative conditional use permit process will further the City's Goals to continue
the development of new and old commercial areas and promote light,non-polluting industrial uses.
2. The proposed amendment to the Grand Terrace Zoning Code is consistent with all other

1) A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are
adequately supported by the information sources a lead agency cites in the parentheses
following each question. A"No Impact" answer is adequately supported if the referenced
information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects like the one
involved(e.g.the project falls outside a fault rupture zone). A"No Impact" answer should
be explained where it is based on project-specific factors as well as general standards(e.g.
the project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific
screening analysis).
2) All answers must take account of the whole action involved,including off-site as well as on-
site,cumulative as well as project-level, indirect as well as direct, and construction as well
as operational impacts.
3) "Potential Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is
significant. If there are one or more "Potential Significant Impact" entries when the
determination is made, and EIR is required.
4) "Potential Significant Unless Mitigated Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of
mitigation measures has reduced an effect from "Potential Significant Impact" to a"Less
than Significant Impact." The lead agency must describe the mitigation measures, and
briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a less than significant level(mitigation measures
from Section XVII, "Earlier Analyses,"may be cross-referenced).
5) Earlier Analyses may be used where,pursuant to the tiering,program EIR, or other CEQA
process, an effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration.
Section 15063(c)(3)(D). Earlier analyses are discussed in Section XVII at the end of the
checklist.
6) Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist references to information
sources for potential impacts (e.g., general plans, zoning ordinances). References to a
previously prepared or outside document should, where appropriate,include a reference to
the page or pages where the statement is substantiated. A source list should be attached, and
other sources used or individuals contacted should be cited in the discussion.

A brief explanation to answer V:
The proposed project is an amendment to the City's Zoning Code which will authorize the Community
and Economic Development Director to consider, approve or modify applications for certain minor
conditional use permits without setting the matter for a public hearing. One of the criteria to be eligible
for this procedure is to have the proper clearance from the regional air quality management district. This
will insure that no adverse impacts to air qualify will occur.

Brief explanation to answers XVI.
Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project is an amendment to the City's Zoning Code
which will authorize the Community and Economic Development Director to consider, approve or
modify applications for certain minor conditional use permits without setting the matter for a public
hearing. In order to quality for an administrative conditional use permit,the request will have to be
"categorically" exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act. Therefore, by definition, any
proposed use approved under the administrative conditional use permit process will have a"less than
significant impact" on the environment.
XVII. Earlier Analysis.
Earlier analysis may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, one or
more effects have been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR, or negative declaration. Section
15063(c)(3)(D). In this case a discussion should identify the following on attached sheets:
a) Earlier analysis used. Identify earlier analyses and state where they are available for
review.
■ Used the Grand Terrace General Plan Master Environmental Assessment and
EIR for most of the base impact information. Both documents are available at
the Grand Terrace Community and Economic Development Department.
b) Impacts adequately addressed. Identify which effects from the above checklist were
within the scope of and adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to
applicable legal standards, and state whether such effects were addressed by mitigation
measured based on the earlier analysis.
• Not Applicable
c) Mitigation measures. For effects that are "Less than Significant with Mitigation
Incorporated," describe the mitigation measured which were incorporated or refined
from the earlier document and the extent they address site specific conditions for the
project.
