Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Thaxton Van Belle, Director of Water Reclamation
Sunshine Sanchez, Management Analyst
DATE June 17, 2025
SUBJECT: Follow -Up Report No. 7 — Local State of Emergency — Sewer Mainline Failure and Emergency Repairs in Fairway Canyon
Description City is retroactively pursuing environmental permits due to local emergency caused by the sewer mainline failure in Fairway Canyon.

Background and Analysis:

On March 3, 2025, City staff were notified of a major sewer mainline failure in the Fairway Canyon community caused by slope erosion behind Hogan Drive homes. The incident led to a manhole collapse and a subsequent 15 -inch sewer mainline failure, resulting in a raw sewage spill and the need for emergency response measures.

On March 4, 2025, the City Council adopted a Resolution titled, "A Resolution Of The City Council Of The City Of Beaumont Declaring A Local Emergency And Authorizing The City Manager To Take Necessary Action", which authorized emergency expenditures in an amount not to exceed $500,000, directed staff to provide ongoing reports at each subsequent City Council meeting under California Public Contract Code Section 22050, and authorized the City Manager to take all necessary actions to mitigate further damage and ensure public health and safety.

On March 18, 2025, staff brought a follow-up status report regarding the emergency repairs in Fairway Canyon. No action was taken, but updated pictures were provided, along with an estimated amount of $21,000 that had been expended.

On April 1, 2025, staff brought a follow-up status report regarding the emergency repairs in Fairway Canyon. The full financial impact to date was $432,101, including requisitions added and costs on bypass pumping, equipment and fuel. Staff were approved for an additional $500,000, increasing the total allocation to $1,000,000 to cover the costs for repairs.

Page 550 of 2775 ends

On April 15, 2025, staff provided a follow-up regarding the emergency repairs in Fairway Canyon, which included construction progress updates with pictures and expenditures paid to date.

On May 6, 2025, staff provided an update on construction activity with pictures of completed items.

On June 3, 2025, the City Council re -ratified the Local Emergency Declaration through a second resolution.

On the recommendation of legal counsel, the emergency status remains open while the City pursues environmental permits retroactively.

Fiscal Impact:

All emergency -related costs were paid from the Wastewater contingency account.

Although this account has exceeded its budget, Wastewater Fund revenues are tracking higher than anticipated, therefore no reserve funds will be required. Overall, the Wastewater Fund remains within its total appropriated budget.

The estimated cost to prepare this staff report is $150.

Recommended Action:

Direct staff to return at the next Council meeting with a follow-up report on environmental permits.

DATE June 17, 2025
SUBJECT: Second Amendment to Professional Services Agreement with Omni Pro, Inc.

Description Agreement with Omni Pro Inc. for document imaging and quality control services to be extended for one year.

Background and Analysis:

On July 7, 2023, the City entered into a Professional Services Agreement with Omni Pro, Inc., to provide document imaging and quality control services to digitize City records. This Agreement was amended on March 5, 2024, to extend the term of the agreement to July 7, 2025, and to increase the maximum compensation not to exceed Three Hundred and Thirty Thousand Dollars and Zero cents ($330,000.00).

To date, Omni Pro Inc. has digitized over 1,200,000 pages of City records ranging from letter size to large format plan sheets. Omni Pro Inc. also provides quality control checks, indexing, and boxing for long-term storage on City property.

Based on visual evaluation, this project is roughly 75% complete. The remaining documents to be digitized include a substantial amount of large format plan sheets which take more time to image. There are still funds remaining within the project budget.

At this time, staff is only recommending to extend the term of the contract through June 30, 2026, to allow time to complete the project.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no additional fiscal impact associated with this Second Amendment with Omni Pro Inc. Of the $330,000 allocated to this contract, $100,336 is still remaining to complete the project. This project has been budgeted for in GL account 100-1150-7068.

The costs of preparing this staff report is estimated to be $120.

Recommended Action:

Approve the Second Amendment to the Agreement with Omni Pro Inc. to extend the term to June 30, 2026.

Omni Pro Inc is pleased to respond to RFP #CC23-19 for City Wide Document Imaging and Quality Control Services that will be performed on site.

We understand that we will need to prep, digitize, and index paper records that are currently stored in various locations across City facilities.

OMNI PRO INC
Approach
Omni Pro Inc supports a strong communication and reporting process, providing clients with all desired reports and invoices in a timely manner. Omni Pro Inc ensure regularly scheduled meetings as requested by the city representative.

Step 1- Project Setup
Each task performed begins with the team member logging in at the beginning using unique login credentials. This provides us with a complete audit trail for all transactions and tasks.

Compiling and maintaining a chain of custody also allows the ability to conduct daily QC performance measurement for all personnel. For this project we will bring three scanners and three pcs, we will set up scanning perimeters upon arrival based on the needs of the project.

Step 2- Document/ Record Preparation
The prep team will be responsible for removing staples and paper clips, sticky notes and any other items that would impede scanning. Sticky notes are placed in a blank area or blank page before scanning. During this process the team will sort documents and or boxes into document types and include separation sheets. The documents are never separated from the folders. Folders remain in their original box and are transferred to the scan station. This box is the records" "home" throughout the entire migration process. It is also identified as a batch within Omni Pro, Inc's system and allows them to track any file and/or document back to the box to address any issues, discrepancies, etc. that may be found during any one of the QC stages.

Step 3- Scanning
The scanning technician will be responsible for viewing each page as it is processed through the scanners, verifying orientation, and removal of blank pages etc. It is always our objective to capture the best image possible on all documents. Some documents may require a grey scale and/or color scan to capture the desired details (especially if the original document is not of good quality.) We expect these items to be clarified upon completion of the validation/test run phase.

Omni Pro, Inc will provide an equal or better image than the original. Our scanners have the capacity to scan up to 600 dpi, detect double page feed, automatically remove blank pages, save files under PDF, JPG, Tiff etc. We are equipped to scan letters, legal, carbon, tabbed and large paper. Our with all of these measures in place it allows consistency. We intend to use the following scanners.
• Fujitsui Fi-6700, Fi-6800
• Kodak i-3400
• Scan Optic S0300
• Kip Large Format Scanners

Page 578 of 2775 ends

OMNI PRO INC
We will also be utilizing Kofax VRS, PaperStream, Simplelndex software and other proprietary software.

Step 4- Indexing
Indexing will be done based on the pre -agreed schema provided. Data will be keyed in by two separate technicians for comparison and accuracy. OCR will be performed as necessary or required. Our indexing system has the capability to keep related documents together by linking the numbering system used to each other.

Step 5- Quality Control
Each completed batch will then be transferred to our processing server where our document processing system will check the quality of each image, de -skew it, etc. and make sure that each image meets the predetermined parameters. This is followed by random visual checks by the quality control staff.

Step 6- Project Delivery
Upon completion and final inspection, all data and images can be delivered in a removable encrypted drive or can be transmitted to the customer via a secured transmission channel such as ONE DRIVE.

Backup Procedures
If a malfunction of a scanner should arise, we maintain backup scanners to replace that scanner allowing us to maintain the production speed.

Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Kirk Pelser, Economic Development Director
Julie Van Hook, Public Information Officer
DATE June 17, 2025
SUBJECT: 2025 ICSC Las Vegas Conference
Description Report out on Mayor Lara, Councilmember Martinez and City Staff attendance at the May 2025 ICSC Conference.

Background and Analysis:

ICSC Las Vegas is the organization's premier event and takes place annually in May. It is a two -three day gathering of industry experts, dealmakers, and jurisdictions, engaged in promoting innovation and evolution in commercial real estate. ICSC provides an environment that facilitates the creation of connections, catalyzation of deals, and formation of public policy. The name ICSC used to stand for "International Council of Shopping Centers" but was rebranded in 2021, primarily due to e -commerce coming to the forefront. ICSC is now known as the brand and not an acronym, with the tag line of "Innovating Commerce Serving Communities."
City representatives who attended:
• Mike Lara — Mayor
• Julio Martinez — Councilmember
• Elizabeth Gibbs — City Manager
• Gus Romo — Deputy City Manager
• Kirk Pelser — Economic Development Director
• Laura James - Economic Development Manager
• Julie Van Hook — Public Information Officer
• Joseph Cale — Management Analyst
• Shannan Doyle — Executive Assistant
• Michael Busch - consultant
This year, the event included approximately 1,000 exhibitors from around the globe and had an estimated attendance of 34,000. The exhibitor list is attached to this staff report

as Attachment A. The list of attendees/retailers is proprietary information and is prohibited from being reproduced or distributed.

This year's event began on May 18, 2025, with professional development workshops, a keynote presentation, an opening reception, and the global awards ceremony. The City team commenced activities on May 18 and toured the Downtown Las Vegas Container Park, a unique open-air commercial retail center largely constructed of metal shipping containers occupied by small, entrepreneurial businesses. This was followed by an early evening reception that was co -hosted by a large residential developer, Shea Properties, the engineering firm of Albert Webb & Associates, and the law firm of Allen Matkins. City representatives were able to meet with the reception hosts, neighboring city representatives, as well as 5th District Supervisor Gutierrez at the reception.

The convention floor portion of ICSC commenced on Monday, May 19th, at 8:00 a.m.

Team Beaumont had a full day of meetings and industry engagement. In prior years, the City participated in shared booth arrangements with Riverside County and other cities.

For 2025, the City invested in creating its own dedicated presence with an individual booth which proved to be especially effective. Our forward -facing presence allowed our team to directly engage with approximately 400 convention attendees. As shown in Attachment B, these photos highlight the City's booth display and marketing material developed for the event. Staff created five new flyers, an economic development brochure, and five marketing videos showcasing key vacant properties within Beaumont — tools that effectively told the City's story and drew interest from prospective investors and tenants. Staff also participated in an unprecedented eleven pre -scheduled meetings during the convention with developers, brokers and retail tenants interested in the growing Beaumont market. Many of these retail and hospitality users are highly motivated to establish a presence in the Pass Region and recognize Beaumont's superior demographics and fiscal stability within the region.

For competitive industry reasons, the names of these businesses must remain confidential for now, but they do represent highly desirable users that would bring significant economic activity in terms of sales tax, property tax and employment. For additional networking opportunities, the Council and staff rotated operating the booth and exploring the venue.

The City's attendance at this year's conference fostered relationships between the City and various retailers and developers, as well as providing staff and Council with valuable insight into the economic development process. These relationships are vital to the expansion of the local economy and the elevation of the City.

Staff also plans to attend the upcoming ICSC Western Regional gathering in Palm Springs from September 28-30, 2025. This will create additional opportunities for

Page 596 of 2775 ends

networking, as well as inspire the development of new strategies ahead of ICSC Las Vegas 2026.

Fiscal Impact:

The cost to prepare this staff report is estimated at $250. Additionally, a fully furnished dedicated 10x20 booth cost $11,500, which included seating for 10, an information desk, storage, electrical service, and visual design — featuring a branded wall display with large -format graphics and coordinated front counter to create a cohesive professional presence.

Costs for travel, including:
• Lodging (9 Rooms): $5,750.58
• Flights (2 Council Members and 2 Staff Members: $1,383.84 • Uber Costs (To and from the Airport, Hotel and Convention Center: $310.41 • Total Travel: $7,444.83
Grand Total: $18,944.83

OVERVIEW
Transportation projects and traffic concerns are the center of modern cities, shaping how we travel, live, and work. As our city continues to grow, so do challenges associated with congestion and maintaining our streets and roadways. Addressing these issues has become paramount to our residents visitors, and travelers to ensure how we travel is safe and efficient. The City Council and Public Works Department continue to make
transportation projects one of the highest priorities, seeking funding through grants, state, and local funding sources.

Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) typically involve a series of stages over several years to ensure proper planning, execution, and project completion. Funding plays a pivotal and complex role which typically involves a combination of grants, regional funding awarded through special districts, and state/local funding sources.

Staff Report
TO: City Council
FROM: Gustavo J. Romo, Deputy City Manager
Robb Steel, Economic Development Consultant
Melody Arechiga, Senior Planner
DATE June 17, 2025
SUBJECT: Development Agreement by and between the City of Beaumont and Beaumont Regency AVG LLC (PLAN2025-0177)
Description Conduct a Public Hearing for Consideration and Approval of a Development Agreement (DA) between the City of Beaumont and Beaumont Regency AVG LLC for the development of a 279,941 square -foot (sf) commercial shopping center at Oak Valley Parkway and the I-10 Freeway (Project) on a 28.95 acre site (Site), Adoption of a Resolution Approving the Off -Site Traffic Improvements Reimbursement Agreement (RA), Adoption of a Resolution to approve Amendment No. 6 to the City Five -Year Capital Improvement Plan for Fiscal Years 2025-2029 (CIP), and Amend the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Budget. The DA has been determined exempt under Article 12, Section 15183 (Projects Consistent with a Community Plan or Zoning) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

Background and Analysis:

Planning Commission Action
On May 28, 2025, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing, approved a Plot Plan for the retail center layout and design, Variances for reduction in parking and open space, and Sign Program for the subject development with conditions of approval and findings in accordance with Section 15183 of the CEQA Guidelines identifying the Project as exempt from further environmental review. The Commission also recommended approval of the DA to the City Council by adoption of an ordinance of the City Council.

Applicant
On December 19, 2024, Beaumont Regency AVG LLC, a limited liability company formed between the landowner (Oak Valley Village LLC, a California Limited Liability Company) and Regency Centers LP, a Delaware corporation (Applicant) submitted requests for the Project entitlements, including a DA. Regency Centers is a national

Page 637 of 2775 ends

owner, operator, and developer of shopping centers across the United States specializing in anchored shopping centers within suburban communities.

Development Agreements
California Government Code (Section 65864 et. seq.) and City of Beaumont Resolution 1987-34 authorize the negotiation and approval of development agreements.

Development agreements eliminate uncertainty with respect to the development process and promote more orderly and efficient development, thereby improving the local economy. The City wishes to grant such certainty to induce development that creates jobs, provides goods and services to residents, and generates revenues to support public services. Development agreements typically vest certain land use entitlements and provide other support in exchange for consideration that may include extraordinary land dedications, expanded public improvements, accelerated development timing, or general project inducement.

Resolution 1987-34 requires that the City Council, after receiving a recommendation from the Planning Commission, conduct a public hearing and make the following findings to approve a development agreement:

A. The provisions of the agreement are consistent with the general plan and any applicable specific plan; and
B. The development agreement complies with all applicable zoning, subdivision, and building regulations and with the general and any specific plan.

The DA must state the specific duration of the agreement, the permitted uses of the property, the density and intensity of use, the maximum height and size of proposed buildings, and any specific provisions for reservation of dedication of land. The City Council must approve the DA by adoption of an ordinance.

The proposed DA incorporates the required content, and the staff report addresses the required findings.

Development Agreement Negotiation Goals
The Applicant and the City negotiated the DA to accomplish the following goals:
• Develop the Site into a high -quality commercial development that will reduce retail sales leakages, maximize tax revenues to the City, create job opportunities, and provide goods and services currently lacking in the community.

Page 638 of 2775 ends

• Develop a modern community shopping center anchored by a major general merchandise retailer and grocery store, accompanied by an assortment of specialty retail, restaurant, and service businesses.
• Offset the cost of public improvements, thereby rendering the Project economically feasible to develop and operate for the Applicant. • Structure the transaction to limit the Applicant's obligation to pay prevailing wages to the public improvements of the Project by structuring the DA in accordance with State statutory requirements.

In accordance with Labor Code Section 1720(c), if the City "requires the developer to perform construction ...work on a public work of improvement as a condition of regulatory approval of an otherwise private development project, and the City contributes no more money, or the equivalent of money, to the overall project than is required to perform this public improvement work, and the state or political subdivision maintains no proprietary interest in the overall project, then only the public improvement work shall thereby become subject to the payment of prevailing wages." To minimize the risk that the DA triggers an obligation to pay prevailing wages for the construction of the private improvements, the DA only offers reimbursement of actual costs for the public improvements imposed as a condition of regulatory approval and the City does not maintain a proprietary interest in the Project. Consequently, the parties intend that prevailing wage obligations only apply to the construction of the public improvements. The Applicant must defend, indemnify, and hold the City harmless from any claim related to prevailing wage liability, and the parties agree to cooperate to address any such claims to avoid such exposure.

Site Description
The larger property consists of eight (8) vacant parcels totaling 64.3 acres on the south side of Oak Valley Parkway, easterly of the I-10 freeway. The Applicant will carve a

28.95 -acre development site area (Site) from the larger property for the purposes of the Project by processing a lot line adjustment and dedicating remaining portions of the property for habitat conservation, stormwater detention, and other purposes. The Site currently lacks public improvements along its full frontage. The landowner also owns a vacant parcel to the east of the Site that is not part of the current Project but proposed for later development (although it will benefit from the proposed Oak Valley Parkway improvements).

Project Description
The Project would develop in two (2) phases totaling approximately 280,000 square feet (sq. ft., rounded) of commercial uses. The Phase I Project consists of approximately

Page 639 of 2775 ends

230,000 sq. ft. of commercial uses, anchored by an approximately 148,000 sq. ft. Target general merchandise store and an approximately 24,000 sq. ft Sprouts grocery store.

In -line shop space and pads would add another 58,000 sq. ft. of commercial space.

Targeted tenants for the shop space and pads include a variety of fast casual restaurants and service establishments including Cava, Chipotle, Philz Coffee, Starbucks, Bath & Body Works, and Famous Footwear. The Applicant intends to ground lease pads to Target and several outparcel tenants, while also developing its own vertical improvements for direct lease to other tenants.

The Phase II Project would add another large format retailer of approximately 50,000 sq. ft. with parking on approximately five (5) usable acres of the Phase II Site. Potential tenants include, but would not be limited to, Dick's Sporting Goods, Burlington, or TJ Maxx/Marshalls.

If facilitated by an approved and adopted DA, the Applicant would construct horizontal on and off -site improvements for the Phase I Site and the Phase II Site during initial construction to achieve scale economies, minimize future construction disruption, and encourage development of the Phase II Project. During the Phase I Project, the Applicant is required to also rough grade the Phase II Site and construct the detention basin and the slope protection improvements along Noble Creek along with the retaining walls next to the freeway offramp. The Applicant would be responsible to construct the off -site improvements along the full frontage on Oak Valley Parkway from the westbound I-10 freeway off -ramp to a point approximately 700 feet easterly of Oak View Drive ensuring not less than 4 travel lanes in both directions easterly on Oak Valley Parkway. The Project would access Oak Valley Parkway via two full -access signalized intersections at Golf Club Drive and at Oak Valley Plaza and one right in/right out only driveway.

Freeway Sign Digital Display)
The Applicant seeks a waiver of the moratorium on billboard signs from the City for a future "Gateway" digital pylon sign/billboard permitting on and off -site advertising. The proposed location would be at the southeast corner of the Site adjacent to the westbound freeway off -ramp within the Phase II Site. The Applicant also submitted a Sign Program that includes pylon signage, monument signage, and storefront signage for individual tenants. The subject freeway sign is not a part of the approved Sign Program. Therefore, the sign would have to be submitted separately through an amendment to the Sign Program and reviewed through a public hearing by the City's Planning Commission. In addition, the Applicant would be solely responsible for securing permits from other governmental entities with jurisdiction for the digital pylon sign/billboard.

Page 640 of 2775 ends

Except as otherwise provided in the DA, Applicant shall assume all Project costs.

Term
The proposed term of the DA is ten (10) years from the Effective Date. The Effective Date means the later of (i) 30 days after adoption of the ordinance approving the DA, and (ii) the date the Applicant acquires the Property, but in any event not later than June 30, 2026. The Applicant and any successors would be able to request extension of the term for an additional five (5) years subject to the City approval. The ordinance approving the DA would be a legislative act subject to referenda.

Land Use Entitlements (Project Approvals, Applicable Rules and Reserved Rights) Development of the Project would be subject to the approved land use entitlements, consisting of the Project Approvals, Applicable Rules and Reserved Rights as summarized below. The Project Approvals consist of the land use entitlement applications submitted to, and approved by, the Planning Commission using adopted rules, regulations, ordinances and official policies of the City regarding land development as of the Effective Date (the Applicable Rules). With limited exceptions (the Reserved Rights in Section 2.8.2), the DA would grant the Applicant a vested right to develop the Project in accordance with the Project Approvals and the Applicable Rules.

Project Approvals: The Applicant submitted the following land use entitlement applications to the City and the Planning Commission for its Project Approvals (the Planning Commission Staff Report dated May 28, 2025, is attached hereto as Attachment A, providing details regarding the Project Approvals):
• Plot Plan (P2024-0059)
• Parking Variance (V2024-0019)
• Open Space Variance (V2025-0031)
• Sign Program (Plan 2024-0157)
On May 28, 2025, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing, approved the subject applications, imposed conditions of approval, and made findings in accordance with Section 15183 of the CEQA Guidelines that the Project is exempt from further environmental review because it is consistent with a previously approved general plan and certified environmental impact report. In addition, the Site was the subject of a certified environmental impact report for a larger commercial project in 2007. The Applicant filed a Notice of Exemption with the State Clearinghouse and County Clerk on May 30, 2025 (SCH #2025051384). The Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 2025-02 making the findings required by Resolution 1987-34 and recommending that the City Council approve the Development Agreement (Attachment B).

Page 641 of 2775 ends

The proposed DA defines the above enumerated land use entitlement approvals as the Planning Entitlements. The Project Approvals encompass the Planning Entitlements and the DA.

Applicable Rules: The Applicable Rules mean: (a) the land use regulations of the City as of the Effective Date of the Ordinance, and (b) future rules that are not inconsistent with the current land use regulations and the proposed DA and agreed upon in writing by Applicant and the City.

The Project may require subsequent ministerial or discretionary permits, licenses, environmental findings, or other similar approvals to develop the Project. The City must impose Conditions of Approval consistent with the Project Approvals and Applicable Rules unless otherwise agreed by the Applicant.

Reserved Rights: The Project would remain subject to all Federal and State Laws, Police Powers, and Uniform Codes as they exist today or as modified in the future.

These include building codes, public improvement construction standards, and other health and safety regulations. If the Applicant proposes to modify the Project in the future, such changes are not Project Approvals, and the Applicant does not retain the vested rights with respect to those changes.

The Applicant and Project would be subject to any lawfully imposed conditions of approval imposed by other governmental agencies. The Project and its occupants would remain subject to all taxes of general applicability (such as sales taxes, transient occupancy taxes, or property taxes).

The Development Agreement does not bind the Applicant to any specific schedule of performance for the private improvements.

Development Fees
The Applicant would also be required to pay all customary planning processing and permit fees for the Project in accordance with the applicable City planning, engineering, building, and development fee schedules. The Applicant would also pay, or cause to be paid, any required processing fees by other regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over the Project at the time and in the manner prescribed. Applicant would solely be responsible for all costs of land use entitlement and building permit issuance/inspection.

The Developer (or its purchaser/users) would be required to pay all Development Impact Fees imposed by the City in accordance with the schedule in effect at the issuance of building permits. The City currently levies 11 distinct capital facility impact

Page 642 of 2775 ends

fees to mitigate the costs of growth upon the City's infrastructure and burden development for its fair share of those costs. The Phase 1 Project would be expected to pay a total of between $3.6 million and $5.0 million in development impact fees to the City, depending upon when building permits are issued (before December 31, 2025, or after as illustrated in the table). The Phase 1 Project would be expected to pay a total of $2.5 million to $3.5 million to the Streets & Bridges (Transportation) Account from which the reimbursement payment for public improvements is proposed. Refer to Fiscal Impact for DIF balance discussion.

The Developer would be required to pay any development impact fees levied by other regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over the Project at the time and in the manner prescribed, including but not limited to Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF), Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP), Beaumont Unified School District (BUSD), and Beaumont -Cherry Valley Water District (BCVWD). The Developer (or its purchaser/users) would be required to pay any or all Fair Share Fees imposed by the City or other regulatory agencies with jurisdiction over the Project at the time and in the manner prescribed. The Applicant would be able to seek credit or reimbursement for eligible costs incurred under these programs.

Public Improvements
The Applicant requested a City contribution toward the cost of public improvements imposed as a condition of regulatory approval for the Project. The Public Improvements generally consist of the following:

Page 643 of 2775 ends

• Widening the south side of Oak Valley Parkway to its full width improvement standard the entire length of the Project frontage and extending to a point 700 feet easterly of the centerline of Oak View Drive to provide not less than four full lanes of travel easterly on Oak Valley Parkway (and along the full frontage of landowner's property, including property not included in the current Project). • Installation of two (2) new traffic signals and ancillary intersection improvements at Desert Lawn Parkway and Elm Avenue.
• Modifications to three (3) existing traffic signals and ancillary intersection improvements on Oak Valley Parkway at Oak View Drive, Golf Club Drive, and Oak Valley Plaza.
• Widening and intersection improvements for a Project driveway on Oak Valley Parkway between the I-10 Freeway and Golf Club Drive.
• Install necessary underground utilities (water, sewer, gas, etc.) to support the Project and adjacent properties.
• Underground overhead electrical, cable, phone, and related line utilities in accordance with the Beaumont Municipal Code.

The estimated hard cost of this scope of work is anticipated to be $7.6 million per the Applicant's estimates (the estimate is included as Exhibit D to the Development Agreement). The DA would obligate the City to make a Maximum Reimbursement payment of $6 million toward the "actual" hard and soft costs of these public improvements in accordance with the terms of an Off -Site Traffic Improvements Reimbursement Agreement. Only public improvements that will be owned and maintained by the City of Beaumont are subject to reimbursement per the agreement.

The Nexus Study for the Streets & Bridges development impact fee does not specifically identify the Oak Valley Parkway improvements. In order to make the Maximum Reimbursement payment from this Account as proposed in the Fiscal Impact Section of this staff report, the City's Nexus Study consultant (Willdan) recommended that the City (1) include the new project in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and provide a description why it is a reasonable substitute for the project(s) being replaced, and (2) identify the substituted project in the annual AB 1600 report and addressing the other AB 1600 reporting requirements. Staff proposes to amend the 2025-2029 CIP to add a new capital project (R25-16 Oak Valley Widening and Traffic Signals Update Project) in the amount of $6,000,000. Partial funding in the amount of $2,100,000 from the Streets and Bridges Account derives by replacing the following projects from the CIP and from the Nexus Study:

Page 644 of 2775 ends

1. R26-04 Traffic Signal Installation at Future Location

2. R27-04 Traffic Signal Installation at Future Location

3. R28-04 Traffic Signal Installation at Future Location

Total:
$ 600,000
$ 600,000
$ 600,000
$ 300,000
$2,100,000
The remaining funding of $3,900,000 is proposed from General Funds as described in the Fiscal Impact section of this report.

Off -Site Traffic Improvements Reimbursement Agreement
The specific procedures for administering the public improvement project and submitting a reimbursement request are included in the Offsite Traffic Improvement Reimbursement Agreement attached as Attachment C. The Applicant would be required to comply with specified elements of the Public Contract Code and pay prevailing wages to all eligible workers on this component of the Project. The Applicant would be required to secure its obligations by posting bonds for not less than 100% of the estimated project costs. Upon completion, the City would inspect and, if applicable, accept the public improvements as complete, receive post -completion maintenance guarantees and as -built drawings among other items. Thereupon, the Applicant would submit a Reimbursement Request documenting all eligible actual costs of constructing the public improvements by providing invoices, checks, and other documentation reasonably required by the City. The City would review the Reimbursement Request within 30 days after receipt, and if approved, pay the claim within 30 days after approval.

Further, the Applicant must satisfy the following conditions before the City must make the final Maximum Reimbursement payment:

1. Substantially complete the Offsite Traffic Improvements, and

2. Substantially complete the on -site improvements (i.e., horizontal work including grading, asphalt, landscape, utilities, concrete, parking lot lighting, etc. in all material respects), and either:

3. Cause a major retailer with a nation-wide presence having at least 125,000 square feet of floor space to open for business within the Project, or

4. Obtain certificates of occupancy from the City for not less than 50,000 square feet of building space for the Project (to include, as a portion of such square footage, a

Page 645 of 2775 ends

grocery store of at least 20,000 square feet in size) and ensure the City has received at least one dollar of sales revenue originating from the Project.

The projected satisfaction date for these conditions is the 2nd quarter of 2027 with a payment due date in the 3rd quarter of 2027 assuming the Applicant submits a complete reimbursement request.

Permit and Improvement Deferral
It is expected that the Owner/Applicant will diligently pursue all necessary permits from Caltrans for work within the Caltrans right-of-way and related Caltrans facilities within a reasonable timeframe following project approval. However, the Owner/Applicant is concerned with potential Caltrans delays. In the event that the required Caltrans permit is delayed beyond the completion of other public improvements or issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy, it has been the City's practice to allow Owners/Applicants to apply for an Improvement Deferral Agreement. This agreement may allow for the deferral of Caltrans-specific improvements for a period not exceeding one (1) year beyond the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy. This practice is intended to give tenants the assurance that their Certificates of Occupancy will not be delayed due to circumstances beyond their control.

Digital Display
The Applicant proposes a digital display sign that promotes on and off -site products and opportunities. A conceptual plan that would be considered at a separate public hearing is attached hereto as Attachment D.

Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.070.030 defines a billboard as a permanent sign structure used for the display of offsite commercial messages. Section 17.070.030.E finds that "the City already has a sufficient number of billboards to satisfy the community's needs for offsite commercial messages, and that any new or additional billboards, which by their very nature cause serious esthetic harm, would negatively impact the appearance of the City. For these reasons, the City completely prohibits the construction, erection or use of any billboards, other than those which legally exist in the City, or for which a valid permit has been issued and has not expired, as of the date on which this provision is first adopted, except for the relocation of existing billboards pursuant to this section."
The Applicant requests an exception to this prohibition for the Project. The City Council may, via the Development Agreement authorized by ordinance, grant an exception to this prohibition for this Project and for no other within the City. Section 2.2.1 of the proposed DA treats the approval of the digital display sign as a subsequent discretionary approval and the Applicant would be required to submit an application for sign permit approval to the Planning Commission, which will address location, design,

Page 646 of 2775 ends

and operating conditions of approval. The Applicant would also be required to secure all approvals from other jurisdictional authorities including Caltrans under the California Outdoor Advertising Act. If approved, the Applicant would agree to indemnify and hold harmless the City from any and all claims associated with failure to obtain other agency's approval of the digital display.

The Applicant has stated a willingness to discuss public service announcements for the City in the future.

Development Agreement Benefits/Costs
The DA would mitigate uncertainty for the Applicant and improve project feasibility by contributing up to $6 million of City funds to offset the cost of extraordinary public improvements. The City's cost would be recaptured from the following benefits:
• Sales Taxes: Upon Phase 1 Project completion, the City would realize potential gross sales tax revenues of $750,000 per year and net sales tax revenues of $675,000 per year (after assuming a 10% intracommunity transfer factor). Phase 2 could add another $150,000 per year in gross sales taxes upon completion ($135,000 net). The City would also recognize an increase in state and county pool allocations based upon a growing share of the regional sales tax base, with an estimated increase of approximately $81,000 per year upon buildout of Phases 1 and 2 based upon an assumed 10% share of the state and county pool allocations. • Property Taxes: The completed Phase 1 Project produces net new assessed valuations of approximately $77 million. Phase 2 would add another $12 million for total buildout assessed valuations of $89 million. This assessed valuation increase would produce approximately $104,000 per year in new property taxes to the City of Beaumont. In addition, the City would recognize an estimated increase of $85,000 per year in motor vehicle in lieu subventions due to the increased property valuation. • Jobs: Using standard employment multipliers for commercial space, the Project would create an estimated 450 new full and part-time jobs with Phase 1. Phase 2 would add another 100 jobs to the employment base.
• New Goods and Services for Residents: The Project would provide additional shopping and dining opportunities for Beaumont residents, including general merchandise, grocery, specialty retail, and dining. Currently, Beaumont suffers retail sales leakages to surrounding communities for all these merchandise categories.

Upon completion and stabilized occupancy of Phases 1 and 2, the City should receive approximately $1.1 million in net new General Fund revenue annually from sales and

Page 647 of 2775 ends

property taxes, thus, recovering the $3,900,000 initial impact on the General Fund within 3 to 4 years.

Development Agreement Risks
The City accepts certain risks under the terms of the proposed Development Agreement:
• Changes in Land Use Preferences: The DA would generally restrict the City from modifying the land use regulations that apply to the Project for a period of 10-15 years.

Neither a future City Council nor the resident voters of Beaumont would impair the development of the Project as approved for the term of the Development Agreement. • Public Revenues may not materialize in the amount projected: The forecasted revenues are based upon expected tenancies and sales volumes. The DA would provide no minimum revenue guarantee and no assurance that any specific tenant would open for business at the location. General economic conditions (recessions, inflation, consumer trends) would impact the actual performance of the Project and the City's anticipated public improvement investment payback. • Applicant may become entitled to the Maximum Reimbursement amount, but Major Retailer does not construct and or operate a store. Under the terms of the proposed DA, the City may be obligated to make the reimbursement payment for public improvements without the major retailer in operation. The major retailer may have an executed lease with the Applicant, but the Applicant does not have an operating covenant from the major retailer — in other words, an obligation to open a store for business. The public revenues would substantially diminish in this unlikely event; however, the Applicant would be highly motivated to find a suitable replacement tenant(s) to maximize the value of the shopping center.

Importantly, under any of these outcomes, the City would nevertheless benefit from the installed infrastructure and improvements to the circulation system on Oak Valley Parkway. The Site would also be fully improved and ready for immediate development.

Environmental
On May 28, 2025, the Planning Commission determined that the Project Approvals were exempt from CEQA under Article 12, Section 15183 of the CEQA Guidelines because the Project is consistent with a community plan and zoning. On May 30, 2025, the Applicant filed a Notice of Exemption with the County Clerk and State Clearinghouse. The proposed DA is likewise exempt pursuant to Section 15183, and if approved and adopted, the Applicant will file a Notice of Exemption after the second reading of the ordinance.

Page 648 of 2775 ends

Fiscal Impact:

By amending the CIP and the Nexus Study to add the Oak Valley Widening and Traffic Signals Update Project (R25-16), the City may contribute up to $2,100,000 from the Streets & Bridges Development Impact Fee Account. The Applicant and other Project developers would be required to pay an estimated $2.5 million to $3.5 million in Streets & Bridges Development Impact Fees at Phase 1 build out (with an additional $0.75M for Phase 2). Other developments within the City would also contribute to the Streets & Bridges Account prior to the date for reimbursement. The CIP Amendment would establish a priority claim on the Streets & Bridges Account to make the Reimbursement Payment to the Applicant after fulfilling all current obligations against the Account.

If the Streets & Bridges Account does not have adequate funding to make the full Reimbursement Payment, the General Fund would assume responsibility for any residual obligation. The General Fund would loan the shortfall to the Streets & Bridges Account and recover the advance from future developer deposits into the Streets & Bridges account.

The General Fund is obligated for the $3,900,000 residual obligation payable from the following adjustments in the CIP:

Proposed Amendment No. 6 to the FY25-29 CIP reallocates General Funds from projects proposed for closing or deferral in the amount of $2,000,000. This necessitates a supplemental General Fund allocation of $1,900,000 to fulfill the $6,000,000 Maximum Reimbursement.

Page 649 of 2775 ends

Section 2.7.1 of the DA would require that the City provide for the Maximum Reimbursement in the City's Capital Improvement Program and Budget at the time of adopting the ordinance. City staff noticed a public hearing concurrent with DA consideration to fulfill this proposed obligation by adopting resolutions amending the CIP and Budget.

The General Fund recovers its total contribution of $3,900,000 from the direct and indirect revenue streams, notably sales taxes, property taxes, and motor vehicle in -lieu taxes. The table below projects the Project revenues and expenses to illustrate the Estimated General Fund Investment Payback

Staff Report
Description A Public Hearing to consider a request for approval of a Plot Plan (PP2024-0059), Sign Program (PLAN2024-0157), Variances (V2024-0019 and V2025- 0031) for parking and open space, and Development Agreement (PLAN2024-0177) to construct a commercial center on a 28.95 -acre vacant site comprised of multi -tenant buildings and commercial pad sites totaling approximately 279,941 square feet of retail and restaurant floor area. The project site is located east of Interstate 10 (I-10) and south of Oak Valley Parkway within the Community Commercial (CC) zone (APNs: 414- 070-008, 414-080-001, -002, -003, -004, -005, -006, and 414-090-019). The proposed applications are exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Article 12, Section 15183 (Projects Consistent with a Community Plan or Zoning).

Background and Analysis:

Regency Centers, LP (Applicant) is requesting approval of several applications that were submitted on December 19, 2024. The individual requests are as follows:

Plot Plan (PP2024-0059). A plot plan is required by the Beaumont Municipal Code per Section 17.02.070 to establish a new land use. The proposed land use includes a commercial center comprised of two (2) major tenant buildings, two (2) multi -tenant buildings (including one with a major tenant) and four (4) commercial pad sites for future drive -through restaurants (Attachment E).The project has been conditioned to require the drive -through uses to submit Conditional Use Permits once tenants are identified (Planning Condition of Approval No. 6, Attachment B)

Page 652 of 2775 ends

Sign Program (PLAN2024-0157). The Municipal Code of the City of Beaumont Section

17.07.030.L allows Sign Programs for specific developments as well as special sign districts or special sign overlay zones, or in specific plans of land uses, when approved as required by applicable law, may modify the rules stated as to sign size, height, illumination, spacing, orientation or non -communicative aspects of signs, but may not override or modify any of the basic policies. The proposed sign program is provided as Attachment F to this staff report.

As part of the sign program, the applicant is proposing two (2) monument signs, two (2) pylon signs along Oak Valley Parkway, one (1) freeway pylon sign and sign development standards for the tenants of the two (2) multi -tenant buildings and Pad A.

The Applicant has requested allowances for a billboard sign that are being addressed as part of the Development Agreement and will require a separate application at a future date.

Variance (V2024-0019). The Applicant is requesting a variance from the parking requirements of Table 17.05-1 of the Beaumont Municipal Code. A total reduction of 181 parking stalls is being proposed out of 1,560 required spaces based on the applicant's parking analysis (Attachment J).

Variance (V2025-0031). The Applicant is also requesting a variance from the 7,600 square feet of public open space required by Beaumont Municipal Code per Section

17.03.080.G.6 due to constraints created by meeting other Beaumont Municipal Code requirements, requirements for landscaping and the conveyance of conservation areas to the RCA. The Applicant's request is included as Attachment K. Furthermore, the Applicant has requested a variance as part of the public open space request to allow some reduced dimensions for planter areas to accommodate the site plan layout in certain areas (Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.06.050.A) Development Agreement (PLAN2025-0177). Government Code, Section 65864- 65869.5 authorizes cities to enter into binding development agreements with the person having legal or equitable interests in real property for the development of such property.

The City of Beaumont Resolution No. 1987-34 establishes procedures for consideration of applications for such agreements.

Article 3, Section 301 of Resolution No. 1987-34 states that after hearing by the Planning Commission, the Planning Commission shall make its recommendation in writing to the City Council. The recommendation shall include the Planning Commission's determination whether or not the Development Agreement is consistent with the required findings.

Page 653 of 2775 ends

The City and Applicant propose to enter into a Development Agreement to make the Project feasible due to the costs associated with infrastructure needs. The Development Agreement vests certain land use entitlements to develop and operate the Project and mitigates risk to ensure the development is not detrimentally affected by future changes to development standards applicable to the Site. Additionally, the Development Agreement obligates the City to reimburse the applicant for certain public improvements that are required by the City as a condition of regulatory approval. The City will realize a variety of public benefits, including expanded access to goods and services, new jobs and public revenues, and improved traffic circulation.

Exemption from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Article 12, Section 15183 (Projects Consistent with a Community Plan or Zoning) Exemption 15183 of CEQA applies to the Project and is consistent with the development density established by existing zoning, community plans and the General Plan for which an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was previously certified.

Additionally, the City of Beaumont previously prepared and certified an EIR for a similar and larger project on the Site in 2007 (SCH#2006011015). Please see the Environmental Documentation section of this staff report for more information and Attachment A for the analysis of compliance with Section 15183 of the CEQA Guidelines.

Project Setting:

The 28.95 -acre project setting (Site) is currently vacant and consists of eight (8) parcels (i.e., APNs 414-070-008, 414-080-001, -002, -003, -004, -005, -006, and 414-090-019).

The southside of Oak Valley Parkway currently has asphalt curb, no sidewalk, and overhead utility lines and poles. The north side of the street has sidewalk, curb, and gutters. Furthermore, the intersection of Oak Valley Parkway and Golf Club Drive is a signalized intersection with crosswalks and street improvements.

The uses surrounding the subject properties include vacant land adjacent to the east and south of the property. To the north across Oak Valley Parkway is the Oak Valley Plaza, which includes a variety of retail uses, restaurants and a Chevron service station.

To the northwest, also across Oak Valley Parkway, is a 76 gasoline service station and vacant land. Finally, west of the property is Interstate 10.

The project setting can also be seen in the following materials attached to this staff report:

Site Design:

The Site consists of eight (8) separate parcels, all of which are vacant and unimproved.

Regency Centers, LP ("Project Applicant") is not proposing to subdivide the property; however, a lot line adjustment has been submitted to the City and is currently under review. Lot line adjustments are reviewed administratively and are not a discretionary application.

Development of the eight (8) parcels will be known as "Oak Valley Village" ("Project").

The Project will be located entirely outside the boundaries of Noble Creek. In December 2007, a Western Riverside County Regional Conservation Authority (RCA) Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP) Joint Power Review (JPR) was completed for the Project area. On July 28, 2024, the RCA issued a clerical amendment to the approved JPR. As a result, the Project will convey approximately 23.1 acres of

Page 655 of 2775 ends

conservation area to the RCA. Additional information can be found in the MSHCP consistency section of this staff report and Attachment A.

Furthermore, the Applicant will be required to provide a sewer easement west of the property to maintain access to the existing lift station. These items have been added as conditions of approval (Public Works Conditions No. 45 to 48, Attachment B).

The Project includes the plotting for four (4) freestanding drive-throughs, two (2) major tenant buildings (Major 1 and Major 3 as shown on the site plan), two (2) multi -tenant buildings (Shops 1 and 2, Retail 1 and Major 2). Major 1 is an approximately 147,624 square -foot tenant space that is proposed to be occupied by a nationally recognized retailer. Major 2 is an approximately 23,299 square -foot tenant space that is proposed to be occupied by a nationally recognized grocer. The remaining retail and restaurant space will include nationally recognized brands, as well as local operators.

The freestanding drive -through uses will require separate Conditional Use Permits once tenants and operational standards are established for each use. Individual conditional use permits will provide conditions of approval for each business and will protect other businesses from any violation of the conditions of approval by other tenants. A condition of approval has been added to the Project requiring a Conditional Use Permit application be submitted to the City for review once those tenants are identified (Planning Condition of Approval No. 6, Attachment B).

The Applicant will be maintaining the block walls constructed within and surrounding the site and has indicated that anti -graffiti coating is not an efficient way of removing graffiti.

They are requesting the Planning Commission modify the condition to allow the applicant to simply clean and maintain affected walls and re -paint any areas that have been vandalized by graffiti. This is Planning Condition of Approval No. 31 under Attachment B.

The attached Development Plans (Attachment E) include the site layout, grading, floor plans, elevations and conceptual landscaping.

Circulation and Parking:

A Traffic Impact Analysis was prepared by Linscott, Law, & Greenspan, Engineers (LLG) on March 19, 2025, and reviewed by City staff. The proposed project will provide two (2) driveways for ingress and egress along Oak Valley Parkway. These driveways will be at signalized intersections where the western driveway will align with Golf Club Drive and the eastern driveway will align with the driveway for the Oak Valley Plaza to the north. Both driveways will allow for full turning movements. Additionally, a right -in - only access into the Site is provided between Pad A and Pad B.

Page 656 of 2775 ends

Adequate and compliant vehicle and truck circulation is provided throughout the Proposed Project. Pedestrian access will be provided through paths of travel accessible from the public sidewalk and paths of travel are provided throughout the Site.

The Project is subject to traffic Development Impact Fees (DIFs), among other DIFs.

Further information may be found in the attached Development Agreement (Attachment D).

Pursuant to Beaumont Municipal Code Table 17.05-1, the required parking is as follows:
• Retail uses: one (1) space per 200 square feet of gross floor area • Drive-through/restaurant: one (1) space per 100 square feet of gross floor area, but not less than 10 spaces.

The following table summarizes the required parking and the parking provided by the Proposed Project:

The Project is deficient by a total of 181 parking stalls. As a result, the Applicant is requesting a parking variance (V2024-0019) to allow for shared parking due to different peak times and non -conflicting uses located within the commercial center. The Applicant has provided an analysis which states peak parking demand during a weekday would be 1,238 parking spaces and occurs between 12pm and 1 pm and during a weekend the peak demand is 1,316 parking spaces at 1 pm. This would result in a parking surplus of 63 parking stalls based on the analysis provided. The parking analysis is included as Attachment J.

Off -Site Improvements:

The Project will complete all half -width street improvements along Oak Valley Parkway consistent with County of Riverside Road Standards. Improvements include installation of curb, gutter, sidewalk, a raised median, and pavement to accommodate three eastbound through lanes and a Class 2 bike lane. Existing overhead utilities will be undergrounded in accordance with Beaumont Municipal Code Chapter 12.18. New

Page 657 of 2775 ends

streetlights will be installed in compliance with City of Beaumont specifications.

Additionally, the Project is required to construct off -site storm drain improvements adjacent to the northwest project boundary, including a drainage channel, riprap, and a headwall. All half -width improvements will extend beyond the Project's boundary to ensure proper and safe transition to existing conditions.

Furthermore, the Project is required to implement the traffic mitigation measures identified in the approved Traffic Impact Analysis, which include the installation or modification of traffic signals and intersection improvements. These improvements will include new turn lanes, through lanes, and upgraded traffic signal operations to support increased traffic volumes. West of the project site, the locations requiring improvements are the intersections of Desert Lawn Drive at Oak Valley Parkway, the I-10 eastbound off -ramp at Oak Valley Parkway, and the I-10 westbound off -ramp at Oak Valley Parkway. It should be noted that the I-10/Oak Valley Parkway Interchange is a Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) project; therefore, the Project will be required to pay TUMF to satisfy their I-10 off -ramp improvement obligations. Along the project frontage, the intersections of Golf Club Drive at Oak Valley Parkway and Oak Valley Plaza at Oak Valley Parkway shall be improved, including widening, restriping, and/or modifications to the existing traffic signals. A new, right -in -only driveway is proposed west of Golf Club Drive for additional access to the site. East of the Project Site, the locations requiring improvements are intersections of Oak View Drive at Oak Valley Parkway and Elm Avenue at Oak Valley Parkway.

Architecture:

The Project will have architecture in line with the branding of their nationally recognized tenants and contemporary architecture with minor incorporations of gabled roofs.

The Major 1 building will incorporate a grey color scheme and grey stone veneer along the north and east elevations. Along the south and west elevations, the grey color scheme will continue with joint lines and windows. On all four elevations, the building will incorporate an accent red color in line with the tenants' corporate branding.

Additionally, the building will be accented with Nichiha wood panels (i.e., a fiber cement siding product) on the north and east elevations. Lastly, a white metal awning will be added to the building's main entrances.

The remaining buildings will have a contemporary style with a neutral color scheme comprised of white, beige, and grey colors. Incorporated into the building are varied articulation and roof lines. Additionally, the buildings will be accented with pitched and gabled roofs and a stone veneer.

Page 658 of 2775 ends

The Project elevations and color and materials are included in Attachment E.

Landscape Requirements and Open Space:

The Project incorporates landscape throughout the Site in compliance with Chapter

17.06 of the Beaumont Municipal Code. This includes providing 15% landscaping within the parking area and providing one (1) tree for every six (6) parking stalls to meet the 30% shading requirement within the first ten years of the project. A conceptual landscape plan is included in Attachment E. The Project has been conditioned to submit a Final Landscape Plan. However, due to the Project's physical constraints, a Variance is being requested for public open space as explained in the following paragraphs.

Pursuant to Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.03.080.G.6 Public Open Space Requirements, developments with 50,000 square feet or more of non-residential floor area on sites of five (5) acres or larger are required to provide public open space. The public open space requirement states that the open space shall provide amenities to enhance the comfort aesthetics, or usability of the space, including trees, landscaping, shades structures, seating, lighting, drinking fountains, public art, or performance areas.

A development of the size of the Proposed Project would require 40 square feet of public open space for every 1,000 square feet of non-residential floor area for the first 100,000 square feet, plus 20 square feet of open space for every 1,000 square feet of non-residential floor area over 100,000 square feet. As a result, the Project requires 7,600 square feet of usable public open space; however, due to parking, access and visibility requirements of the Beaumont Municipal Code as well as the needs of the Project's prospective retailers, the applicant is unable to meet this requirement.

Alternatively, the applicant is proposing other types of open space by providing 4,680 square feet of patio space to allow for outdoor seating. Additionally, the applicant is providing 7,500 square feet of landscape planters and islands as well as conveying to RCA approximately 23.1 acres of conservation area. A copy of the request is included as Attachment K.

Similarly, due to these constraints, the Project Applicant is also requesting a variance from Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.06.050.A requiring parking lot dividers, islands, planters, and planting areas shall be a minimum of five (5) feet wide and 10 feet long except for that all new or retrofitted tree planter shall be a minimum of nine (9) feet by seven (7) feet, measured to the inside perimeter of the planter, and shall have no less than 48 square feet of permeable soil planting area. The applicant has expressed that not all planter areas will meet this size requirements due to limitations within the site created by meeting other Beaumont Municipal Code requirements and the donation of approximately 23.1 acres of conservation area.

Page 659 of 2775 ends

Alcohol Sales:

The Applicant is proposing the sale of alcohol for their nationally recognized retailer/grocer and an individual grocery store. Alcohol licenses are obtained through the Department of Alcohol and Beverage Control (ABC). The nationally recognized retailer is proposing to apply for an Off -Sale Type 21 (Off -Sale General) and an Off -Sale Type 86 (Instructional Tasting License) licenses. The individual grocer is proposing to apply for an Off -Sale Type 20 (beer and wine only) license. Pursuant to Table 17.03-3 of the Beaumont Municipal Code alcohol sales within a grocery store is a permitted use within the Community Commercial zone.

According to ABC, one (1) on -sale license is allowed for each 2,000 persons in the county and one (1) off -sale license is allowed for each 2,500 persons in the county.

Currently, based on current population ratios, two (2) off -sale licenses are permitted within Census Tract 438.22 and there are currently two existing (2) Off -sale licenses (Attachment L). If the proposed licenses are approved, it would bring the total of off -sale licenses to four(4), which would result in an overconcentration of alcohol licenses.

Therefore, a finding of "Public Convenience and Necessity" (PCN) will be required and is justified due to the nature of use being proposed (i.e., grocer).

Furthermore, the ABC requires that no alcohol licenses be issued within 600 feet, as measured from property line to property line, from public or private schools, public parks, or places of worship. Additionally, new licenses will not be issued if the new retail location is within 100 feet of a residence. The Site is located over a mile from Tournament Hills Elementary and Mountain View Middle School and is not within 100 feet of a residence. The nearest park is Noble Creek Park and is approximately 1,500 feet east from the project site. Therefore, the Project meets these criteria.

Sign Program:

The sign program as proposed includes design guidelines for on -site signage for Pad A, Major 2, Shops 1 and 2, Retail 1, pylon and monument signs. Two monument signs are proposed on the north side of the Project — one north of Pad A and the second at the most easterly entrance to the commercial center. The monument signs are proposed to be an overall height of six (6) feet and eight (8) feet and two (2) and a half (2 1/2) inches wide with a stone veneer.

Additionally, the proposed sign program includes two (2) pylon signs — one located on the southeast corner of the I-10 off -ramp and Oak Valley Parkway and the second is located at the entrance at Golf Club Drive. These pylon signs are proposed at an overall height of 20 feet and nine (9) feet and four (4) inches wide and will be supported by two

Page 660 of 2775 ends

(2) columns with stone veneer. Additionally, the Applicant proposes a freeway -oriented pylon sign at a height of 60 feet and 25 feet wide for on -site advertising.

Furthermore, the sign program identifies other design guidelines for the identification signs of Pad A, Major 2, Shops 1 and 2, and Retail 1 buildings. This includes the placement of wall signs and the tenant name not exceeding 70% of lease frontage and not exceeding maximum of 80% of fascia height. All the signs will require a separate sign permit application for construction and installation.

Lastly, the Applicant proposes an electronic billboard that will be addressed by the Development Agreement and require a separate discretionary approval; therefore, it is not a part of the sign program being considered at this time but will be allowed via separate review and approvals based on the language provided in the Development Agreement.

The proposed sign program is included as Attachment F.

Development Agreement:

The Project Applicant requested consideration of a Development Agreement with the City of Beaumont. The key provisions of the Development Agreement are:

1. Term. The Development Agreement becomes effective upon (a) the date the Ordinance approving the Development Agreement is effective, and (b) when the Applicant acquires fee title to the Property, but in any event not later than June 30, 2026. The Development Agreement extends for 10 years, with one 5 -year option to extend for a total potential term of 15 years.

2. Vesting of Land Use Entitlements. The Development Agreement vests the land use entitlements for the Term of the Development Agreement, reducing the risk of a change in land use rules by a subsequent City Council or citizen initiative and granting the Applicant certainty with respect to the conditions for developing and operating the Project.

3. Reimbursement for Off -Site Traffic Improvements. The City shall reimburse the Applicant for the actual cost for widening and improving Oak Valley Parkway to its full half -width improvement standard (including installation or relocation of utilities). The Applicant shall also install or modify traffic signals adjacent to the site at (a) Golf Club Drive, (b) Oak Valley Plaza, (c) Oak View Drive. The Applicant shall also install or modify offsite traffic signals at (d) Desert Lawn Drive, and (e) Elm Avenue as a mitigation measure under CEQA. The City may adopt a program to recover fair share fees from future development contributing traffic to the off -site intersections for which the City reimbursed the Applicant.

Page 661 of 2775 ends

The reimbursement for actual costs is subject to (i) substantial completion of the Oak Valley public improvements, (ii) substantial completion of the on -site improvements (all horizontal improvements), and (iii) certificates of occupancy for not less than 50,000 square feet of building improvements encompassing a grocery store of not less than 20,000 square feet.

4. Digital Display Sign. Pursuant to Beaumont Municipal Code Section

17.07.030.G (Basic Policies) new billboards are prohibited; however, the City Council has the authority to allow this type of sign by adoption of an ordinance associated with a Development Agreement. The approvals granted by the proposed ordinance would only apply to this property and does not apply to other areas of the City. The Development Agreement only waives the Code prohibition and approves basic concept drawings for the Digital Display, and the Applicant must submit a formal application for subsequent discretionary Planning Commission consideration. The Applicant is responsible for securing permits from any other entity with jurisdiction and indemnifies and holds the City harmless from any costs, expenses, or liabilities resulting from claims related to such approvals.

In exchange for this assistance, the City incentivizes development of a community shopping center providing needed goods and services to the residents of Beaumont and surrounding cities. Upon completion, the Project is forecasted to provide 450 full and part-time jobs, $650,000 per year in net new sales taxes, and $100,000 per year in new property taxes. Residents will also benefit from the improved traffic circulation on Oak Valley Parkway. The Applicant will also pay all City development impact fees due, which may reach $5 million depending upon when building permits are issued.

Multi -Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP):

The Project is located within a MSHCP criteria area. A Western Riverside County Regional Conservation Authority (RCA) MSHCP Joint Project Review (JPR) was completed in December 2007, which applies to the Project Site. The JPR (07-03-12-02) was approved by the RCA and required the conservation of approximately 23.1 acres of sensitive habitat associated with Noble Creek in the southern portion of the Project Site (i.e., 6.0 acres of the conservation area are within Criteria Cell 940 and 17.1 acres of conservation are outside the conservation cells). The Project is substantially the same as the 2007 project, and the RCA concluded that "the project is consistent with both the criteria and other plan requirements". On July 28, 2024, the RCA issued a clerical amendment to the approved JPR that corrected the actual impact and mitigation/conservation acreages required for the Project.

Page 662 of 2775 ends

The Project is consistent with the JPR clerical amendment and no additional MSHCP compliance is required if the formal conservation of the approximately 23.1 acres of sensitive habitat is conveyed to the RCA.

The JPR determination is included as an attachment to the CEQA Section 15183 exemption analysis (Attachment A).

Development Review Committee (DRC):

The Development Review Committee reviewed the Project for design on January 9, 2025, and April 3, 2025. Staff from the various City departments provided written comments that have been incorporated into the proposed conditions of approval.

Consistency with Adopted Goals, Plans and Programs:

General Plan Consistency:

The proposed use is in conformance with the General Plan for the City of Beaumont.

The land use designation for the Project Site is General Commercial, as shown in Attachment G. The proposed development is consistent with the General Plan Policy

3.4.2, which promotes the development of neighborhood commercial uses in the vicinity of residential neighborhoods and larger commercial retail centers along the major transportation corridors.

Zoning Consistency:

The uses that are proposed are subject to and are consistent with the development standards for the Community Commercial zone. The overall use meets the objectives of the zone. The use and its operations are compatible with uses permitted in the zone, subject to approval of a Plot Plan. The proposed drive -through uses are subject to a Conditional Use Permit. As a result, the Plot Plan has been conditioned to require that the drive -through uses apply for a Conditional Use Permit once tenants have been identified. Furthermore, Pursuant to Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.02.110, the Applicant has requested a parking and open space variance.

Findings required by Beaumont Municipal Code, Section 17.02.070.G (Plot Plan) and

17.02.110.H (Variance) are provided in this staff report under the findings section.

Environmental Documentation:

An analysis of a CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 exemption (Projects Consistent with a Community Plan or Zoning) was prepared for the project (Attachment A). This section of

Page 663 of 2775 ends

the CEQA guidelines identifies situations for which certain CEQA-compliance procedures may apply. Specifically, Section 15183 of the CEQA Guidelines applies to projects that are consistent with existing zoning, community plan, or general plan policies for which an EIR was previously certified.

The analysis presented in the attached report has demonstrated that the proposed project meets the requirements of CEQA Guidelines Section 15183, and, as such, no additional CEQA review, such as a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR or MND, is required.

Furthermore, a project EIR (SCH 2006011015) was prepared and certified for a similar project on the Project Site in February 2007. The EIR evaluated a 441,709 square -foot general commercial project on the 41.3 -acre project site, and the project then did not proceed at that time. The Project is of less intensity than the project proposed in 2007.

The 2007 EIR was incorporated by reference in the attached analysis pursuant to Section 15150 of the CEQA guidelines.

Prior to the City's determination of a Section 15183 exemption, the City prepared notification for government -to -government consultation under AB 52. The tribes requesting government -to -government consultation included Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, Morongo Band of Mission Indians, Pechanga Band of Indians, and Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians. Due to the project being exempt under Section 15183 of the CEQA guidelines, government -to -government consultation was no longer necessary. On May 6, 2025, the City sent notification to the tribes that requested consultation to inform them that the provisions of AB 52 were not applicable to the Project due to the CEQA Section 15183 Exemption and that consultation was considered closed. Included with the letter was a copy of the public hearing notice notifying the tribes of the public hearing.

One response was received as of the preparation of this staff report from Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians requesting a copy of the previously prepared 2007 EIR.

Public Communications Received:

Property owners located within a 300 -foot radius of the project site were notified of the intended public hearing on May 6, 2025, with a 20 -day hearing notice in addition to a public notice in the Press Enterprise.

As of the date this staff report was prepared no written or public comments have been received. Any additional comments received prior to the time of the scheduled Planning Commission meeting will be provided to the Commission at the time of the public hearing.

Planning Commission Authority:

Plot Plan: A Plot Plan is required pursuant to Section 17.02.070 to establish a new land use, or to assume an existing land use, consistent with the zoning of the proposed location and requires a public hearing conducted by the Planning Commission. The Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.02.070.F authorizes the Planning Commission to approve, conditionally approve, or deny the application.

Variance: Pursuant to Section 17.02.110 of the Beaumont Municipal Code, the variance procedure is provided pert Section 65906 of the California Government Code to grant relief from zoning provisions when, because of special circumstances applicable to a property including size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, the strict application of this Zoning Ordinance deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by other property in the vicinity and under identical zoning classification. Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.02.110.F. authorizes the Planning Commission to approve, conditionally approve, or deny the application
Sign Program: The Municipal Code of the City of Beaumont Section 17.07.030.L allows sign programs for specific developments, as well as special sign districts or special sign overlay zones, or in specific plans of land uses, when approved as required by applicable law, may modify the rules stated as to sign size, height, illumination, spacing, orientation or other non -communicative aspects of signs, but may not override or modify any of the basic policies.

Development Agreement: The authority to adopt a development agreement is granted under Government Code Sections 65864-65869.5. Resolution No. 1987-34 of the City of Beaumont requires the Planning Commission, after the hearing, to make a recommendation to the City Council in writing. Findings for a Development Agreement can be found in the findings section of this staff report.

Findings:

Plot Plan

1. The proposed use is permitted, or is substantially similar to a use permitted, within the subject zone and complies with the intent of all applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance.

Page 665 of 2775 ends

The Project is subject to and is consistent with the Development Standards for the Community Commercial (CC) zone. Pursuant to Beaumont Municipal Code Table

17.03-3, the zoning allows retail uses, including the sale of alcohol for grocery stores.

The drive -through uses are conditional uses; however, the Project has been conditioned to require Conditional Use Permits be obtained once tenants have been identified.

2. The proposed use is consistent with the objectives, policies, general plan land uses and programs of the general plan and any applicable specific plans.

The Project is in conformance with the General Plan for the City of Beaumont. The land use designation for the Project Site is General Commercial. The proposed development is consistent with the General Plan Policy 3.4.2, which promotes the development of neighborhood commercial uses in the vicinity of residential neighborhoods and larger commercial retail centers along the major transportation corridors.

3. The subject site is physically suitable for the type and intensity of the proposed land use.

The Site is vacant and slopes to the south and west. The proposed project is in a community commercial and residential area that is developed or vacant and is suitable for commercial development.

4. The location, size, design and operating characteristics of the proposed uses are compatible with existing land uses within the general area in which the proposed use is located.

The zoning for the Project Site is Community Commercial and the land use designation is General Commercial. The property to the east has the same zoning and land use designation as the Project Site. To the south lies within the Kirkwood Ranch Specific Plan and has a land use designation of Single Family Residential. The properties to the north of the property are within the Solera Specific Plan and have a land use designation of General Commercial and Single Family Residential. To the west of the subject property is Interstate 10, under the jurisdiction of Caltrans and the State of California. To the north of the property are existing commercial uses including a 76 service station and commercial center with a Rite Aid, Chevron and restaurants. Further north and to the east of the Site are existing single-family dwellings. The proposed uses within the Project are compatible with the surrounding commercially and residentially zoned properties to the north, south, east and west.

Page 666 of 2775 ends

5. There are adequate provisions for public access, water, sanitation, and public utilities and services to ensure that the proposed land use would not be detrimental to the public convenience, health, safety or general welfare.

The Site will be served by the Beaumont -Cherry Valley Water District for water services upon annexation into the district. The Applicant has obtained a will -serve letter from the Beaumont -Cherry Valley Water District. The Project will be served by the City of Beaumont for sewer disposal system. Electricity will be provided by Southern California Edison, and natural gas will be provided by the Southern California Gas Company.

Solid waste and refuse services are provided by Waste Management, Inc. on behalf of the City of Beaumont. The Site can be adequately served and will not be detrimental to public health and safety.

6. The approval of the plot plan permit for the proposed uses is in compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act and there would be no significant adverse impacts upon environmental quality and natural resources that cannot be reasonably mitigated and monitored.

An analysis for a CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 exemption has been prepared finding that the project is exempt. The analysis was prepared by Ascent in April 2025. The analysis is included as Attachment A.

Variances

1. That the strict or literal interpretation and application of this Zoning Ordinance would result in practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships inconsistent with the general purpose and intent of this Zoning Ordinance or would deprive applicants of privileges granted to others in similar circumstances.

The Site is located on parcels zoned Community Commercial with a General Plan land use designation of General Commercial and is intended for commercial uses. The Beaumont Municipal Code parking requirements for specific land uses has not been updated to keep up with parking trends. Furthermore, the open space requirements of the Beaumont Municipal do not consider limitations created by other requirements within the Beaumont Municipal Code and conservation of sensitive habitat and open space.

2. That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved or the intended development of the property that do not apply to other property in the same zone.

Page 667 of 2775 ends

The Applicant is requesting a parking variance to meet parking trends for shared parking. Furthermore, the open space variance is being requested to meet other municipal code requirements and due to the project dedicating approximately 23.1 acres for conservation of sensitive habitat and open space which has reduced the project site area for development.

3. That the granting of such variance will not constitute the granting of special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the vicinity classified in the same zone.

The Applicant is requesting a parking variance to meet parking trends for shared parking. The City of Beaumont regularly receives parking variance requests, which have been successfully approved. Furthermore, the open space variance is being requested due to the reduction in the project site area for development as a result of dedicated conservation areas and limitations in meeting other municipal code requirements. Not all properties in the City are subject to conservation requirements.

4. That the granting of such variance will not be materially detrimental to the public health, safety, or general welfare nor injurious to property or improvements in the zone or neighborhood in which the property is located.

Pursuant to Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.02.070.H In granting a permit, the Community Development Director or Planning Commission may impose such conditions as deemed necessary to ensure that the public health, safety and general welfare are protected and that the proposed use is not a detriment to the community. All conditions shall be binding upon the applicant, heirs, successors, or assignees.

5. That the granting of such variance will not create any inconsistency with any objective contained in the General Plan.

The proposed parking variance will not create an inconsistency with the General Plan objectives and will assist in compliance with the Mobility Element Goal 4.7.4 to review and update the City's parking regulations to ensure that the code is kept current with the parking conditions throughout the City. Community development is currently working on a comprehensive zoning code update that will update parking requirements.

The proposed open space variance is consistent with General Plan policy 3.11.10 that requires the provision of open space linkages and conservation between development projects consistent with the conservation efforts targeted in the MSHCP. A variance of the open space requirement within the commercial center is being requested due to the project already designating approximately 23.1 acres for conservation of sensitive habitat and open space.

Development Agreement

1. The proposed Development Agreement is consistent with the objectives, policies, general land uses, and programs specified in the general plan and any applicable specific plan.

The Project is consistent with the objectives, policies, general land uses, and programs specified in the general plan. The Project Site has a land use designation of General Commercial and is consistent with General Plan Policy 3.4.2, which promotes the development of neighborhood commercial uses in the vicinity of residential neighborhoods and larger commercial retail centers along the major transportation corridors.

2. The proposed Development Agreement is compatible with the uses authorized in, and the regulations prescribed for, the applicable zoning district(s) in which the Project is and will be located.

The Project is subject to and is consistent with the Development Standards for the Community Commercial (CC) zone. Pursuant to Table 17.03-3, the retail uses are a permitted use within the Community Commercial zone. The drive-throughs require a conditional use permit, and the Project has been conditioned to require a Conditional Use Permit once tenants are identified.

3. The proposed Development Agreement is in conformity with public convenience, general welfare and good land use practice.

The Project is consistent with Goal 3.4, A City that maintains and expands its commercial, industrial, and other employment -generating land uses and Policy 3.4.1 of the General Plan, continue to promote commercial and industrial development in the Interstate Employment Subarea that capitalizes on the City's location near the I-10 and the SR -60 freeways.

4. The proposed Development Agreement is not otherwise detrimental to the health and safety of the citizens of the City of Beaumont.

Pursuant to Beaumont Municipal Code Section 17.02.070.H, in granting a permit, the Community Development Director or Planning Commission may impose such conditions as deemed necessary to ensure that the public health, safety and general welfare are protected and that the proposed use is not a detriment to the community. All conditions shall be binding upon the applicant, heirs, successors, or assignees.

Page 669 of 2775 ends

5. The proposed Development Agreement will not adversely affect the orderly development of property or the preservation of property values.

The Project is consistent with Goal 3.4, A City that maintains and expands its commercial, industrial, and other employment -generating land uses and Policy 3.4.1 of the General Plan, continue to promote commercial and industrial development in the Interstate Employment Subarea that capitalizes on the City's location near the 1-10 and the SR -60 freeways.

1 INTRODUCTION
The project applicant is proposing the development of the Oak Valley Village project (herein, "project" or "proposed project"). Specifically, the project would entail the development of an approximately 28.95 acre site into a 279,941 square -foot General Commercial Center. The project site encompasses Assessor's Parcel Numbers (APNs) 414-070-008, 414-080-001, 404-080-003, 414-080-004, 414-080-005, 414-080-006, and 414-090-019, is located south of Oak Valley Parkway and approximately 500 feet east of Interstate 10 (I-10) in the City of Beaumont. The project site's regional location is show in Figure 1-1. The vicinity map is shown in Figure 1-2 and the project site aerial is shown in Figure 1-3.

The City of Beaumont City Council adopted the City's General Plan Update (Beaumont 2040) and certified a Program Environmental Impact Report (herein, "GPU EIR"; State Clearinghouse [SCH] No. 2018031022) in October 2020. The GPU also included a comprehensive update to the City of Beaumont Zoning Code. The GPU EIR was prepared as a Program Environmental Impact Report (Program EIR) in conformance with the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"; California Public Resources Code, Sections 21000, et seq.) and the State CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Sections 15000, et seq.). According to Section 15168 of the CEQA Guidelines, a Program EIR may be prepared on a series of actions that can be characterized as one large project. Use of a Program EIR gives the Lead Agency an opportunity to consider broad policy alternatives and program -wide mitigation measures, as well as greater flexibility to address project -specific and cumulative environmental impacts on a comprehensive scale. The proposed project is consistent with the existing general plan (General Commercial) and zoning (Community Commercial) land use designations.

In addition, a project specific EIR (SCH 2006011015) was prepared in February 2007 for a similar general commercial project on a similar but larger project site (41.3 acres of a 60.5 -acre project site). The EIR was certified in April 2007 and the project did not proceed at that time. Both the 2020 General Plan Update EIR and the 2007 project specific EIR addressed the impact associated with similar, but more intense land uses than proposed by the current proposes project.

1.1 CEQA COMPLIANCE
Article 12 (Special Situations) of the State CEQA Guidelines identifies situations for which certain CEQA-compliance procedures may apply. Specifically, Section 15183(a) of the State CEQA Guidelines states that:
"CEQA mandates that projects which are consistent with the development density established by existing zoning, community plan, or general plan policies for which an EIR was certified shall not require additional environmental review, except as might be necessary to examine whether there are project -specific significant effects which are peculiar to the project or its site. This streamlines the review of such projects and reduces the need to prepare repetitive environmental studies."
Pursuant to Section 15183(c) of the State CEQA Guidelines, "(i)f an impact is not peculiar to the parcel or to the project, has been addressed as a significant effect in the prior EIR, or can be substantially mitigated by the imposition of uniformly applied development policies or standards...then an additional EIR need not be prepared for the project solely on the basis of that impact."
Accordingly, the purpose of the analysis contained herein is to evaluate whether the project would result in impacts that are peculiar to the project or project site, and to determine whether such impacts (if any) can be substantially mitigated by the imposition of uniformly applied development policies or standards. If any impacts cannot be substantially mitigated with uniformly applied development policies or standards, or if the project results in off -site or cumulative impacts that were not previously evaluated in the GPU EIR, then additional environmental review is required for the project. Alternatively, if the project does not result in any impacts beyond what was evaluated and disclosed as part of the GPU EIR, then no additional environmental review would be required.

Additionally, the City of Beaumont previously prepared and certified an EIR for a similar, but larger project on the project site in 2007. The previous 2007 project proposed to develop a larger 60.5 -acre project site into 41.3 acres of general commercial development and 23.1 acres of open space/conservation, and included an evaluation of impacts to air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, hydrology, noise, transportation/traffic, and water quality.

Ascent CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 Compliance
The 2007 project proposed 441,709 square feet of commercial development. The currently proposed project area was entirely located within the project area evaluated in the 2007 EIR and proposes 279.941 square feet of commercial development, which represents 63% of the previous development proposal intensity. The 2007 EIR is hereby incorporated by reference pursuant to Section 15150 of the CEQA Guidelines. Information from the 2007 EIR is incorporated into this CEQA compliance document.

1.2 RELATIONSHIP TO THE 2020 GENERAL PLAN UPDATE EIR
As shown in the GPU EIR (Figure 1-4), Land Use Plan, the land use designation for the project site is General Commercial (GC), with a maximum Floor -Area -Ratio (FAR) of 0.75. The GPU EIR analyzed the impacts of all future development in the City of Beaumont, with project site evaluated consistent with the GC land use designation. For the General Commercial land use designation, the GPU EIR impact analysis assumed that 70 percent of the General Commercial designated areas would be developed. In addition, the GPU EIR depicts Oak Valley Parkway as an Urban Arterial, four lane divided highway. The project proposes to develop 28,95 acres site into 279,941 square feet of general commercial land uses, which would result in a FAR of 0.22.2, and is consistent with the 2020 General Plan Update and the analysis contained within the GPU EIR.

The 2020 GPU EIR evaluated city-wide impacts to aesthetics, agriculture/forestry, air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, geology & soils, greenhouse gas, Hazards/hazardous materials, hydrology/water quality, land use & planning, mineral resources, noise, population and housing, public services, recreation, transportation/traffic, tribal cultural resources, utilities/service systems, energy, and wildfire.

Existing project site zoning is shown in Figure 1-5.

1.3 RELATIONSHIP TO THE 2007 PROJECT EIR
A project EIR (SCH 2006011015) was prepared and certified for a similar project that included the project site in February 2007. The EIR evaluated a 441,709 square foot general commercial project on a 41.3 -acre portion of the 60.5 acre project site, and the project did not proceed at that time. The 2007 project site plan is shown in Figure 1- 6. The proposed 2007 project was consistent with the general plan land use and zoning designations existing at the time the 2007 EIR was prepared and evaluated project specific impacts to air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, hydrology, noise, transportation/traffic and water quality. The EIR included a series of mitigation measures designed to reduce impacts to less than significant levels and all impacts except air quality were reduced to less than significant. A statement of Overriding Considerations weas prepared for the significant air quality impacts. 2007 EIR analysis and mitigation measures are summarized in Section 4.0.

1.4 RELATIONSHIP TO THE APPROVED WESTERN RIVERSIDE COUNTY

REGIONAL CONSERVATION AUTHORITY (RCA) MULTIPLE SPECIES

HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN (MSHCP) JOINT PROJECT

REVIEW(JPR)
A Western Riverside County Regional Conservation Authority (RCA) Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP) Joint Project Review (JPR) was completed in December 2007 for the proposed project. The JPR (07-03-12- 02) was approved by the RCA and required the conservation of 23.1 acres of sensitive habitat associated with Noble Creek in the southern portion of the 2007 project site. 6.0 acres of the conservation area are within Criteria Cell 940 and 17.1 acres of conservation are outside of conservation cells. The currently proposed project is substantially the same as the 2007 project and the RCA concluded that "the project is consistent with both the criteria and other plan requirements. On July 28, 2024, the RCA issued a clerical amendment to the approved JPR which corrected the actual impact and mitigation/conservation acreages that are required for the proposed project. The currently proposed project is consistent with the JPR clerical amendment and no additional MSHCP compliance is required as long as the formal conservation of the 23.1 acres of sensitive habitat is conveyed to the RCA.

No additional biological resource mitigation measures or MSHCP coordination is required. The July 28, 2024, MSHCP JPR amendment is contained in Appendix A.

9 2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION

2.1 PROJECT LOCATION
Regionally, the project site is located within the north -central portion of the City of Beaumont (City), Riverside County, California (Figure 2-1). The project site is located south of and adjacent to Oak Valley Parkway, approximately 500 feet east of Interstate 10 (I-10) (Figure 1-1). Noble Creek is located immediately south of the project site.

2.2 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
As shown on Figure 1-1, the project would encompass an approximately 28.95 -acre development site (APNs 414-070- 009, 414-080-001, 414-080-003, 414-080-004, 414-080-005, 414-080-006 and 414-090-019). The undeveloped parcel slopes from north to the south towards Noble Creek. Onsite elevations range from 2,525 feet above mean sea level (AMSL) in the northeast portion of the site to 2,480 feet AMSL in the southwestern portion of the site. The site is currently vacant, consisting of generally flat area and is covered by non-native grasses and riversidian sage scrub. The 2007 EIR Cultural Resources Assessment determined that the project site has been included in previous cultural resources studies and that no archaeological sites had been recorded within its boundaries. Existing commercial and single-family residential uses are located to the north, and east of the project site and across Noble Creek to the south.

2.2.1 Existing General Plan Land Use Designation and Zoning According to the 2020 General Plan Update Land Plan Map, the project site has a land use designation of General Commercial (GC) which allows for "Big Box" and "Large Format" retailers within commercial shopping centers, with a maximum FAR of 0.75. The purpose and intent of this land use designation is to allow a mix of retail and restaurant uses that serve adjacent neighborhoods. The proposed project is entirely consistent with the General Commercial general plan land use designation and is well within the 70 percent buildout assumption. The existing general plan designation is shown in Figure 1-4.

The project site is zoned Community Commercial (CC), which allows for community commercial land uses including retail and restaurant uses. Existing City of Beaumont zoning is shown in Figure 1-5. The proposed project is entirely consistent with the existing zoning. The proposed project is being processed as a Plot Plan.

The Community Design Element of the General Plan identifies the project site within the North Neighborhood Sub Area. Projects within the North Neighborhood Sub Area are required to include Design Guidelines that address grading, architectural styles, details and materials, color palettes, landscaping, irrigation, walls and fencing, and other items related to future development.

2.3 PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS

2.3.1 Site Plan
The project proposes the development of the 28.95 -acre project site into 279,941 square feet of general commercial land uses (Figure 2-1). This represents a FAR of 0.22, which is well within the maximum allowable community commercial FAR of 0.75. The project proposes two major retail tenants, one mid -sized retail tenant, one series of shops and four pads (A -D). A total of 1,560 parking spaces are required by the city zoning code, 1,376 parking spaces are provided, which will require a minor variance. Of the 1,376 parking spaces, 214 will be EV ready/capable.

2.3.2 Circulation
The primary vehicular access point would be via driveways along Oak Valley Parkway east of Interstate 10 (I-10). Interior circulation would include two primary travel lanes, parking drive aisles. and parking. A total of 1,376 parking spaces are proposed. A fire department turn around is provided at the southern terminus of the [primary north -south access road.

Pedestrian circulation is provided within and along the perimeter of the site and along proposed building frontages.

2.3.3 Architecture
The proposed commercial buildings architecture styles are shown in the elevations in Figures 2-2 and 2-3.

2.3.4 Landscaping and Irrigation
The landscape intent is to provide a consistent onsite and street scene landscape for project visitors. A low -moderate plant palette would be used to enhance and complement the commercial architecture while ensuring sustainable landscape practices. Landscaping would include a variety of trees, shrubs, and groundcover. All disturbed areas would be replanted and irrigated. The landscape plan is shown in Figure 2-4.

2.3.5 Utilities
Municipal and private utility services are necessary to serve the project and are currently available within or adjacent to the project site. On -site utility infrastructure necessary to serve the project, including water, sewer, drainage, storm water runoff treatment facilities, and dry utilities, would be installed with the proposed development and would connect to the existing utilities.

DRY UTILITIES
The project site is located within the service areas of the following utility purveyors: Southern California Edison (SCE) (electricity), and Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas) (natural gas). The project includes installation of on -site utility infrastructure that would connect to the existing facilities adjacent to the project site.

WATER AND WASTEWATER
The Cherry Valley -Beaumont Water District provides water service to the project site. There is an existing water line beneath Oak Valley Parkway. The project includes installation of water lines on -site that would connect to the existing water lines in the adjacent roadways. Wastewater disposal is provided by the City of Beaumont and there is an existing 30 -foot sewer easement along the western project boundary. The existing infrastructure has sufficient capacity to accommodate the proposed uses and existing development, and no upgrades to the existing infrastructure off -site would be required.

STORM DRAINS AND WATER QUALITY FEATURES
Stormwater would flow from the northeast to the southwest via proposed onsite storm drains and surface flow, and would be detained and treated in a surface water quality basin in the southeast corner of the project site, south of Major Building No. 3. Stormwater flows exceeding the capacity of the basin would be discharged to Noble Creek.

2.3.6 Grading
Project grading would require 245,170 cubic yards of cut and 239,470 cubic yards of fill. A total of 24,950 cubic yards of offsite export (including utility trench spoils) would be required. Most of the cut would be from the northern, central, and eastern portions of the site, which would be redistributed in the western and southern portions of the site. Onsite slopes (2:1) would be up to 20 feet in height adjacent to Noble Creek will be created.

REQUESTED ENTITLEMENTS
Requested project entitlements/approvals include the: plot plan approval, parking variance, CEQA exemption adoption and annexation into the Beaumont Cherry Vallet Water District. 12 City of Beaumont

19 3 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW CONCLUSION
The analysis presented in Section 4.0 (Project -Specific Environmental Assessment) of this memorandum demonstrates that the proposed project meets the requirements of CEQA Guidelines Section 15183, and as such, no additional CEQA review, such as a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR or MND, is required for the project. Specifically:
► The proposed project would not result in environmental impacts that are peculiar to the project site not addressed in the 2020 General Plan Update EIR (CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(b)(1)); ► The proposed project is consistent with the project site's adopted 2020 General Plan Update land use designation of "GC — General Commercial (70% maximum buildout)" and there are no environmental effects associated with the proposed project that were not previously analyzed as significant effects by the GPU EIR (CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(b)(2));
► There are no potentially significant off -site or cumulatively considerable impacts of the proposed project that were not discussed in the GPU EIR (CEQA Guidelines Sections 15183(b)(3) and 15183(j)); ► There is no substantial new information which was not known at the time the GPU EIR was certified that would result in a more severe environmental impact beyond the significant impacts previously identified in the GPU EIR (CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(b)(4));
► The GPU EIR was certified in conjunction with the City's adoption of the 2020 General Plan Update, and the proposed project is consistent with the project site's existing 2020 General Plan Update land use designation of "L — Low Density Residential (0.5 du/ac — 2.0 du/ac)." (CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(d)); and ► All of the Standard Conditions of Approval (COAs) and Mitigation Measures (MMs) relied upon by the GPU EIR to reduce environmental effects and that are applicable to the proposed project are feasible and would be implemented as part of the project (CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(e)).

Accordingly, and pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15183, because the proposed project is consistent with the 2005 General Plan Update, and because the proposed project would not result in any new or more severe impacts to the environment beyond what was previously evaluated and disclosed as part of the GPU EIR, no additional environmental review is required for the proposed project beyond the analysis and conclusions provided in Section 4 of this memorandum.

3.1 OVERVIEW OF CEQA GUIDELINES SECTION 15183
Article 12 (Special Situations) of the State CEQA Guidelines identifies situations for which certain CEQA-compliance procedures may apply. Specifically, Section 15183 of the CEQA Guidelines applies to projects that are consistent with existing zoning, community plan, or general plan policies for which an EIR was previously certified. CEQA mandates that such projects shall not require additional environmental review, except as might be necessary to examine whether there are project -specific significant effects which are peculiar to the project or its site. Section 15183 is intended to streamline the review of such projects and reduce the need to prepare repetitive environmental studies.

For projects that meet the requirements of Section 15183, the Lead Agency is required to limit its examination of environmental effects to those effects which the Lead Agency determines, in an initial study or other analysis:
1) Are peculiar to the project or the parcel on which the project would be located; 2) Were not analyzed as significant effects in a prior EIR on the zoning action, general plan, or community plan with which the project is consistent;
3) Are potentially significant off -site impacts and cumulative impacts which were not discussed in the prior EIR prepared for the general plan, community plan or zoning action; or 4) Are previously identified significant effects which, as a result of substantial new information which was not known at the time the EIR was certified, are determined to have a more severe adverse impact than discussed in the prior EIR.

City of Beaumont
Oak Valley Village General Commercial Project Plot Plan 202.4-O059 693 of 2775 21 CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 Compliance Ascent
If an impact is not peculiar to the parcel or to the project, has been addressed as a significant effect in the prior EIR, or can be substantially mitigated by the imposition of uniformly applied development policies or standards, as contemplated by CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(c), then an additional EIR need not be prepared for the project solely on the basis of that impact. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(h), an environmental effect shall not be considered peculiar to the project or parcel solely because no uniformly applied development policy or standard is applicable to it. Section 15183(e) allows for the analysis to be limited for those significant environmental effects which were previously identified in the prior EIR, and for which all applicable mitigation measures identified by the prior EIR are found to be feasible. For such effects, the Lead Agency is required to make a finding at a public hearing as to whether the feasible mitigation measures would be undertaken.

Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(f), an effect of a project on the environment shall not be considered peculiar to the project or the parcel if uniformly applied development policies or standards have been previously adopted by the city or county with a finding that the development policies or standards will substantially mitigate that environmental effect when applied to future projects, unless substantial new information shows that the policies or standards will not substantially mitigate the environmental effect. The finding shall be based on substantial evidence which need not include an EIR. Such development policies or standards need not apply throughout the entire city or county but can apply only within the zoning district in which the project is located, or within the area subject to the community plan on which the lead agency is relying. Moreover, such policies or standards need not be part of the general plan or any community plan but can be found within another pertinent planning document such as a zoning ordinance. Where a city or county, in previously adopting uniformly applied development policies or standards for imposition on future projects, failed to make a finding as to whether such policies or standards would substantially mitigate the effects of future projects, the decision -making body of the city or county, prior to approving such a future project pursuant to Section 15183, may hold a public hearing for the purpose of considering whether, as applied to the project, such standards or policies would substantially mitigate the effects of the project. Such a public hearing need only be held if the city or county decides to apply the standards or policies as permitted in Section 15183.

Section 15183(j) of the State CEQA Guidelines does not affect any requirement to analyze potentially significant off - site or cumulative impacts if those impacts were not adequately discussed in the prior EIR. If a significant offsite or cumulative impact was adequately discussed in the prior EIR, then Section 15183 may be used as a basis for excluding further analysis of that offsite or cumulative impact.

4 PROJECT -SPECIFIC ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
The following analysis addresses the potential impacts from the proposed Oak Valley Village Commercial Project in relation to the analysis presented in the GPU EIR that was certified in October 2020 (SCH No. 2018031022) and in the certified EIR for the previous project (February 2007 - SCH 2006011015). The discussion below is formatted to address each of the environmental checklist items identified by Appendix G to the CEQA Guidelines, which also were relied upon by the 2020 GPU EIR and the 2007 project EIR. The analysis assumes that the proposed project would be subject to all applicable Mitigation Measures (MMs) identified by the GPU and project EIRs, applicable Standard Conditions of Approval (COAs) as identified in the GPU EIR, and any standard COAs that have been implemented since the General Plan EIR was certified that are applicable to the proposed project. Applicable MMs, and COAs that were relied upon to evaluate the project's potential environmental effects are listed under the appropriate environmental subject heading in the following subsections.

c. In non -urbanized areas, would the project
substantially degrade the existing visual character
or quality of public views of the site and its
surroundings? (Public views are those that are
experienced from publicly accessible vantage
point). If the Project is in an urbanized area, would
the Project conflict with applicable zoning and
other regulations governing scenic quality?
d. Create a new source of substantial light or glare,
which would adversely affect day or nighttime
views in the area?
The 2020 GPU EIR and the 2007 project EIR evaluated the project site for impacts to Aesthetics.

4.1.1 Applicable 2020 GPU EIR and 2007 Project EIR Mitigation Measures
2020 GPU EIR Mitigation Measures: The 2020 GPU EIR does not include mitigation measures for Aesthetics. 2007 Project EIR Mitigation Measures: The 2007 project EIR does not include mitigation measures for Aesthetics.

4.1.2 Previous Significance Determinations
The 2020 GPU EIR concluded that development associated with the buildout of the Planning Area (city limits and sphere of influence) result in the intensification of existing land uses and the conversion of vacant land into urban land uses; however, project -specific design review of projects proposed in the Planning Area would ensure that development pursuant to the General Plan (Beaumont 2040 Plan) is attractive and cohesive without diminishing the quality of the natural beauty of the general vicinity. Adherence to the Beaumont 2040 Plan goals and policies and project -specific design review of individual projects would result in a less than significant impacts to scenic vistas. In addition, the Planning Area did not propose any land uses which would significantly impact scenic resources within the Planning Area or vicinity, and site specific analysis required by the City's entitlement process and CEQA would ensure that potential scenic impacts of individual proposed projects are disclosed and mitigated to a less -than - significant level, and as such, impacts regarding damaging scenic resources would be less than significant. The 2020 GPU EIR also concluded that implementation of the goals and policies of the Beaumont 2040 Plan would ensure that urbanization of the Planning Area would not result in substantial degradation to the existing visual character or quality of the Planning Area and its surroundings, thus resulting in a less -than -significant impact. As stated in the 2020 GPU EIR compliance with the City's municipal code of ordinances would reduce new sources of substantial light and glare for daytime and nighttime views to a less -than -significant level. Therefore, all impacts were found to be less than significant, and no mitigation measures were required. 24 City of Beaumont

Page 696 ends

Ascent CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 Compliance
The 2007 Project EIR did not analyze aesthetics, as the Appendix G Environmental Checklist Form included in the CEQA Statute and Guidelines did not, at the time, have a section addressing aesthetic environmental impacts.

Therefore, a significance determination of the project's potential aesthetic impacts was not determined.

4.1.3 Project -Specific Analysis
The project is located within a non -urbanized area of the city and is not included within a scenic vista. Motorists, cyclists, and pedestrians traveling along Oak Valley Parkway and along the I-10 freeway see partially obstructed views of the project site due to terrain; surrounding land uses include low -density residential and commercial. The proposed commercial development would be of similar scale and height to the existing surrounding land uses and would not obstruct a scenic resource. No scenic highways are located within the project site or in the vicinity of the project site, and no trees, rock outcroppings, or historic buildings are located on the project site in connection with a state scenic highway; the nearest eligible and designated scenic highway is State Route 243 near Banning, approximately 6.5 miles east of the project site. As the project would conform to the underlying existing zoning and General Plan land use designations on -site, and due to the fact that land uses in the vicinity are commercial and low - density residential, development of the project's commercial land uses would not result in significant degradation to the existing visual character or quality of public views of the project site and surroundings. Regarding on -site lighting or glare, lighting for the project would be provided in order to illuminate building entrances, common open space areas, and parking areas largely to provide adequate nighttime visibility for patrons and visitors and to provide a measure of security; however, all exterior lighting would be designed and installed with shielding to reduce glare on to neighboring properties in conformance with City standards, such as Chapter 8.50 of the City's municipal code and the Outdoor Lighting Ordinance. Conformance to the City's municipal code and lighting ordinance standards would ensure that the project would not create a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area.

4.2.1 Applicable 2020 GPU EIR and 2007 Project EIR Mitigation Measures
The 2020 GPU EIR and the 2007 project EIR evaluated the project site for impacts to Agriculture and Forestry Resources.
2020 GPU EIR Mitigation Measures: The 2020 GPU EIR includes the following applicable mitigation measures for Agriculture and Forestry Resources:
► MM -AG -1: Because the State revaluates and changes Farmland designations approximately every two years, to determine the specific impacts to designated Farmland sites shown on Figure 5.2-1— Designated Farmland, as part of any entitlement process for any future development proposal, the project applicant shall use the most current FMMP data available to determine the number of acres of Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, and Farmland of Statewide Importance that would be permanently converted to a non-agricultural use by the proposed future development. This number shall be referred to as the "Acres of Converted Farmland." If the Acres of Converted Farmland for any future development project is greater than zero, the City shall require the project proponent to provide mitigation in the amount equivalent to the Acres of Converted Farmland. This mitigation may be provided by one or more of the following methods: (i) placement of an agricultural easement on property containing soils that meet the physical and chemical criteria for Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance, (ii) cancellation of a Notice of Non -renewal or an agreement not to file a Notice of Non -renewal for Williamson Act contracts on property (or properties), (iii) placement of a new Williamson Act contract on property or properties, or (iv) any combination of (i), (ii),or (iii). Other feasible measures to protect the soils and lands designated by the State FMMP program not listed here can be 26 City of Beaumont

Page 698 ends

Ascent CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 Compliance
implemented as determined by the City. This mitigation shall be made a condition of project approval and evidence of mitigation shall be provided to the Beaumont Planning Department prior to the issuance of a grading permit.
► MM -AG -2: In order to allow the operation of produce stands in the Industrial Zoning District as part of the revisions to the Beaumont Zoning Ordinance, Section 17.03.100 and Table 17.03-3 shall be revised to include Produce Stands as a permitted use in the Manufacturing (M) Zone. 2007 Project EIR Mitigation Measures: The 2007 project EIR does not include mitigation measures for Agriculture and Forestry Resources.

Level of Significance with Mitigation Measures
Less Than Significant Impact.

4.2.2 Previous Significance Determinations
The 2020 GPU EIR concluded that the Beaumont 2040 Plan does not designated any lands for agricultural use, and the zoning assigned which permits agricultural use also allows other non-agricultural use. Because there are no exclusive agricultural land use designations included as part of the Beaumont 2040 Plan, up to 50 acres of farmland could eventually be converted to other uses. While certain policies and proposed revisions to the City's Zoning Code support and permit agricultural land uses, the Beaumont 2040 Plan does not require the preservation of designated Farmland, and there are no policies available to mitigate the irreplaceable loss of Prime and Unique Farmland. As a result, new mitigation measure MM -AG -1 was implemented to ensure that impacts regarding the conversion of Farmland to non-agricultural uses are considered less than significant. There are currently no Williamson Act contracted lands within the Planning Area of the Beaumont 2040 Plan, and no impacts would occur regarding Williamson Act lands. No lands within the Planning Area are designated or zoned for forestland or timberland use, and no impacts would occur.

The 2007 Project EIR determined that the project would have a less than significant impact on agricultural resources, as the project site was not zoned for agricultural cultivation, nor was it under a Williamson Act contract or designed as Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance. The project site was possibly used for agricultural purpose decades ago, but had since remained vacant and undeveloped land, and although the project site might be suitable for agriculture, the project site lacked available irrigation water or irrigation facilities to support agricultural use; in addition, no agricultural lands adjoined the project site, and proposed commercial uses would not convert farmland to non-agricultural use. The 2007 Project EIR determined that there would be no impact.

4.2.3 Project -Specific Analysis
The project site is designated as Farmland of Local Importance, according to the California Department of Conservation's California Important Farmland Finder database (DOC 2025a). However, no agricultural uses, forestland, or timberland production zones exist on the project site. Therefore, the project would not convert active farmland, forestland, or timberland production areas to non -farmland, non-forestland, and non -timberland production uses. The project site is not included in a Williamson Act contract (DOC 2025b). The project site is zoned CC, which allows for community commercial land uses, including retail and restaurant uses. The project would conform to the underlying zoning on -site by developing commercial land uses, including two major retail stores, one mid -sized retail store, and a series of smaller shops. Therefore, there are no impacts that are peculiar to the project site; there are no direct or cumulatively -considerable impacts of the project that were not already evaluated by the 2020 GPU EIR and 2007 Project EIR; and there are no new or more severe impacts to the environment beyond what was previously evaluated and disclosed by the 2020 GPU EIR and 2007 Project EIR.

4.3.1 Applicable 2020 GPU EIR and 2007 Project EIR Mitigation Measures
2020 GPU EIR Mitigation Measures: The 2020 GPU EIR includes the following applicable mitigation measures for air quality.
► MM-AQ-1: In order to reduce future impacts related to exceedance of air quality standards from criteria pollutants and from TACs impacting sensitive receptors, prior to discretionary approval for development projects subject to CEQA review, project applicants shall prepare and submit a technical analysis evaluating potential air quality impacts, including TAC's where appropriate, to the City of Beaumont for review and approval. The analysis shall be prepared in conformance with current South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) methodology for assessing air quality impacts and TACs. Feasible mitigation measures for each future project shall be incorporated, if applicable.
2007 Project EIR Mitigation Measures: The 2007 project EIR included the following mitigation measures for Air Quality:
► MM -4.1-1: All vehicles on the construction site shall travel at speeds less than 15 miles per hour. ► MM -4.1-2: All material stockpiles subject to wind erosion during construction activities, that will not be utilized within three days, shall be covered with plastic, an alternative cover deemed equivalent to plastic, or sprayed with a nontoxic chemical stabilizer.
► MM -4.1-3: Where vehicles leave the construction site and enter adjacent public streets, the streets shall be swept daily or washed down at the end of the work day to remove soil tracked onto the paved surface. Any visible track -out extending for more than fifty (50) feet from the access point shall be swept or washed within thirty (30) minutes of deposition.
► MM -4.1-4: All diesel -powered vehicles and equipment shall be properly operated and maintained. ► MM -4.1-5: All diesel -powered vehicles and gasoline -powered equipment shall be turned off when not in use for more than five (5) minutes.

Ascent CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 Compliance
► MM -4.1-6: The grading contractor shall utilize equipment with Tier 3 -certified diesel engines for all equipment with an engine power rating of greater than 100 HP.
► MM -4.1-7: The construction contractor shall time the construction activities so as not to interfere with peak hour traffic. To minimize obstruction of through traffic lanes adjacent to the site, a flag person shall be retained to maintain safety adjacent to existing roadways, if necessary. ► MM -4.1-8: The construction contractor shall support and encourage ridesharing and transit incentives for the construction crew.
► MM -4.1-9: The construction contractor shall utilize water -based or low VOC coatings that comply with the most stringent SCAQMD Rule 1113 limits. Spray equipment with high transfer efficiency, such as the high volume -low pressure (HVLP) spray method, or manual coatings application such as paint brush hand roller, trowel, spatula, dauber, rag, or sponge, shall be used to reduce VOC emissions, where practical. ► MM -4.1-10: If construction equipment powered by alternative fuel sources (liquefied petroleum gas/compressed natural gas) is available at comparable cost, the developer shall specify that such equipment be used during all construction activities on the project site.
► MM -4.1-11: The developer shall require the use of particulate filters on diesel construction equipment exceeding 100 HP unless use of such filters is demonstrated to not be practical for use on proposed project. ► MM -4.1-12: All diesel -powered equipment rated at 100 horsepower or higher shall be equipped with engines that meet Tier 3 NOx emission limits.
► MM -4.1-13: The proposed project shall incorporate any available transportation control measures (TCMs). Such measures include, but are not limited to:
• Providing preferential parking spaces for employee carpools and vanpools. • Providing on -street bus shelters and well -lighted, safe paths between site uses. ■ Scheduling truck deliveries and pickups for off-peak hours where feasible. • Delivery trucks shall turn off their engines if the anticipated duration of idling exceeds three minutes.

Level of Significance with Mitigation Measures
2020 GPU EIR: Significant and Unavoidable Impacts.
2007 Project EIR: Significant and Unavoidable Impacts.

4.3.2 Previous Significance Determinations
2020 GPU EIR
The 2020 GPU EIR determined that buildout of the Planning Area in accordance with the Beaumont 2040 Plan would exceed established thresholds, even with the implementation of all feasible mitigation measures outlined above.

Therefore, regarding whether a project would introduce GHG emissions directly or indirectly that may have a significant impact on the environment, this impact was determined to be significant and unavoidable. In terms of whether the project would conflict with an applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing emissions of GHG, the 2020 GPU EIR concluded that implementation of the Beaumont 2040 Plan would contribute to the reduction of GHG emissions throughout the Planning Area and would not conflict or obstruct with the implementation of the Sustainable Beaumont Plan. It was determined that no impact would occur.

2007 PROJECT EIR
In terms of consistency with the applicable Air Quality Management Plan, (AQMP), the 2007 Project EIR determined that the project was consistent with the AQMP forecasts for the area and therefore would not contribute a significant impact associated with the implementation of the South Coast Air Quality Management District. Regarding regional air quality emissions, it was determined that the project would contribute to existing air quality violations within the air quality basin during both construction and operation, and as such, cumulative incremental increases in pollutant levels would result in significant impacts at the regional level. In terms of contributing to a local carbon monoxide hotspot, the project was found to be less than significant. Regarding impacts to sensitive receptors, existing sensitive receptors were located 110 feet north of the project site. It was concluded that although operational impacts were projected to exceed air quality standards, long-term operational impacts were unlikely to occur to sensitive receptors since the proposed commercial uses would not generate localized emissions in exceedance of air quality standards.

Regarding objectionable odors, it was concluded that the project's commercial retail space would not create objectionable odors. All impacts were determined to be less than significant, except for daily construction and operational impacts, which would continue to exceed the SCAQMD thresholds even with implementation of mitigation measures.

4.3.3 Project -Specific Analysis
The proposed project would involve the construction of 279,941 square feet of general commercial land uses (retail and restaurant) on a project site of approximately 28.95 acres, whereas the 2007 Project EIR proposed commercial development on a project site of approximately 41.3 acres in size. Because the current project would result in reduced commercial intensity compared to the assumptions of the 2007 Project EIR, it can be concluded that the current project would result in fewer air quality emissions as compared to what was evaluated and disclosed in the 2007 Project EIR, for both construction and operation. Specifically, the current project square footage would be approximately a 37 percent reduction in size compared to the 2007 project. Therefore, it can be assumed that the current project would have approximately 37 percent fewer air quality emissions compared to the 2007 project.

Therefore, consistent with the findings of the 2007 Project EIR, the current project would not conflict or obstruct implementation of an applicable air quality plan, would not expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations, and would not result in other emissions, such as odors, adversely affecting a substantial number of people. However, since the air quality basin is in non -attainment for PM10, Nitrous Oxide, Reactive Organic Gases, and Carbon Monoxide, even with approximately a 35 percent decrease in emissions, construction of the current project would still contribute to these existing air quality violations established by the SCAQMD. Therefore, consistent with the 2007 Project EIR conclusions, cumulative incremental increases in pollutant levels for these non -attainment pollutants would result in a significant impact at the regional level, and impacts would be significant and unavoidable, even after all feasible mitigation measures have been incorporated. Therefore, there are no impacts that are peculiar to the project site; there are no direct or cumulatively -considerable impacts of the proposed project that were not already evaluated by the 2020 GPU EIR and 2007 Project EIR; and there are no new or more severe impacts to the environment beyond what was previously evaluated and disclosed by the 2020 GPU EIR and 2007 Project EIR. 30 City of Beaumont
