• Conditional Use Permit 25-4 (CUP-25-4; “Building 1”). In accordance with the Zoning Text Amendment proposed as part of ZTA-25-4, revised Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code would be amended to require approval of a CUP by the City of Calimesa Planning Commission for warehouse and distribution buildings up to 1,100,000 s.f. in size that are zoned for L-I land uses and that are located within a WOZ. Although no new development is proposed on site as part of the Project, CUP25-4 is required to fulfill the requirements of (amended) Municipal Code Table 18.30.030 for Building 1, which is the existing warehouse building in the western portions of the Northern Annexation Area. The overall site plan for CUP-25-4 is presented on Figure 6, CUP-25- 4 and CUP-25-5 Overall Site Plan. As shown, Building 1 includes a total of 811,000 s.f. of warehouse space and 10,000 s.f. of oƯice space, for a total building area of 811,000 s.f. A total of 130 truck trailer docking doors are accommodated, with 65 dock doors each on the western and eastern sides of the building. A total of 274 passenger vehicle parking stalls are provided to the north and south of the building, while a total of 271 truck trailer parking stalls are accommodated in the truck courts located to the east and west of the building. Approval of CUP-25-4 would meet the requirements of the L-I zone (as revised by ZTA-25-4) for buildings up to 1,100,00 s.f. in size, and would ensure that Building 1 is consistent with all applicable City zoning requirements. • Conditional Use Permit 25-5 (CUP-25-5; “Building 2”). As noted above, pursuant to Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code would be amended to require approval of a CUP by the City of Calimesa Planning Commission for warehouse and distribution buildings up to 1,100,000 s.f. in size that are zoned for L-I land uses and that are located within a WOZ. Although no new development is proposed on site as part of the Project, CUP-25-5 is required to fulfill the requirements of (amended) Municipal Code Table 18.30.030 for Building 2, which is the existing warehouse building in the eastern portions of the Northern Annexation Area. The overall site plan for CUP-25-5 is presented on Figure 6, CUP-25-4 and CUP-25-5 Overall Site Plan. As shown, Building 2 includes a total of 992,760 s.f. of warehouse space and 20,000 s.f. of oƯice space, for a total building area of 1,012,760 s.f. A total of 170 truck trailer docking doors are accommodated, with 85 dock doors each on the northern and southern sides of the building. A total of 432 passenger vehicle parking stalls are provided to the north and south of the building, while a total of 248 truck trailer parking stalls are accommodated in the truck courts located to the south and north of the building. Approval of CUP25-5 would meet the requirements of the L-I zone (as revised by ZTA-25-4) for buildings up to 1,100,000 s.f. in size, and would ensure that Building 1 is consistent with all applicable City zoning requirements.
In addition, and following approval of ANNX-25-1, GPA25-2, ZC-25-2 , ZTA-25-4, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25- 5 by the City of Calimesa City Council, the Riverside LAFCO would be responsible for approval of the Project’s proposed annexation, which, if approved, would modify the City of Calimesa boundaries to include the 313.4-acre Annexation Area. No detachment process or other actions are required by the County of Riverside.
In addition to the boundary annexation described above, resolving water and sanitary sewer service jurisdiction for the Annexation Area would require a separate action by the Riverside County LAFCO. The Northern Annexation Area currently is within the Yucaipa Valley Water District's (YVWD) service area for potable water service. The Southern Annexation Area, however, is not currently within the jurisdictional

boundary of any water or sanitary sewer provider; it is located within the Sphere of Influence (SOI) of the Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District (BCVWD) for potable water service, and is not within the jurisdictional boundary or SOI of any provider for sanitary sewer service. Riverside County LAFCO will make the determination as to the service providers in the Northern Annexation Area and the Southern Annexation Area. A full discussion of existing water and sanitary sewer service conditions and the supporting capacity analysis is provided in subsection 2.1.19, Utilities and Service Systems.
9. Surrounding Land Uses and Setting: The proposed Annexation Area abuts the City of Calimesa city limits on the east and southeast, while the City of Beaumont city limits occur to the south of the Northern Annexation Area and to the east of the Southern Annexation Area.
Areas abutting the Northern Annexation Area to the north, east, and southeast are within unincorporated Riverside County, while lands to the west of the Northern Annexation Area are located within the City of Calimesa. Lands to the north of the Northern Annexation Area mostly consists of open space, along with several scattered rural residential homes and associated structures. Properties to the east and west of the Northern Annexation Area consist of small-scale agricultural uses and scattered rural residences.
Lands to the south of the Northern Annexation Area are within the City of Beaumont city limits and consist of scattered vacant parcels, a truck services business, and the former Sunny Cal Egg Ranch. The Sunny Cal Egg Ranch site previously received entitlement approval for a planned residential development consisting of approximately 560 residential units. Land to the west of the Northern Annexation Area and to the north of the western portion of the Southern Annexation Area are located within the City of Calimesa city limits and include rural residential, agricultural uses, and undeveloped lands, while the Rancho Calimesa Mobile Home Park is located approximately 0.26-mile northwest of the Northern Annexation Area.
Lands to the northwest, west, and south of the Southern Annexation Area are located within the City of Calimesa, while lands to the east of the Southern Annexation Area are located within the City of Beaumont. To the west of the Southern Annexation Area is I-10, beyond which are undeveloped lands, agricultural uses, single-family residential uses, and an existing commercial shopping center that includes a Stater Brothers Market. To the south of the Southern Annexation Area is I-10, beyond which are undeveloped lands and single-family residential uses, along with an existing utility corridor. Lands to the east of the Southern Annexation Area are within the City of Beaumont city limits and consists of scattered vacant parcels, a truck services business, and the former Sunny Cal Egg Ranch (as described above). To the north of the Southern Annexation (and to the west of the Northern Annexation Area) are small scale agricultural uses and scattered rural residences.
10. Other public agencies whose approval is required: The Project’s proposed annexation request will require approval by the Riverside County Local Area Formation Commission (LAFCO). No approvals from other public agencies would be required.
11. Have California Native American tribes traditionally and culturally aƯiliated with the project area requested consultation pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21080.3.1? If so, is there a plan for consultation that includes, for example, the determination of significance of impacts to tribal cultural resources, procedures regarding confidentiality, etc.? In accordance with the provisions of Public Resources Code Section 21080.3.1 and the provisions of California Senate Bill 18 (SB 18) and Assembly Bill 52 (AB 52), the City of Calimesa conducted Tribal Consultation eƯorts with the following tribes:
City of Calimesa Final Negative Declaration
Annexation Project Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8
• Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians
• Augustine Band of Cahuilla Mission Indians
• Cabazon Band of Mission Indians
• Cahuilla Band of Mission Indians
• Los Coyotes Band of Cahuilla and Cupeño Indians
• Morongo Band of Mission Indians
• Pala Band of Mission Indians
• Pauma Band of Luiseno Indians
• Pechanga Cultural Resources Department
• Quechan Indian Tribe of the Fort Yuma Reservation
• Ramona Band of Cahuilla Mission Indians
• Rincon Band of Luiseno Indians
• Santa Rosa Band of Cahuilla Indians
• Serrano Nation of Mission Indians
• Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians
• Torres-Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians
• Yuhaaviatam of San Manuel Nation
As a result of the Native American consultation eƯorts, no significant tribal cultural resources were identified by the consulting tribes, and there were no requests for mitigation measures.
Note: Conducting consultation early in the CEQA process allows tribal governments, lead agencies, and project proponents to discuss the level of environmental review, identify and address potential adverse impacts to tribal cultural resources, and reduce the potential for delay and conflict in the environmental review process. (See Public Resources Code section 21080.3.2.) Information may also be available from the California Native American Heritage Commission’s Sacred Lands File per Public Resources Code section 5097.96 and the California Historical Resources Information System administered by the California OƯice of Historic Preservation. Please also note that Public Resources Code section 21082.3(c) contains provisions specific to confidentiality.

City of Calimesa Final Negative Declaration
Annexation Project Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8
DETERMINATION
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
☒ I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant eƯect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
☐ I find that although the proposed project could have a significant eƯect on the environment, there will not be a significant eƯect in this case because revisions in the project have been made by or agreed to by the project proponent. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. ☐ I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant eƯect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT (EIR) is required.
☐ I find that the proposed project MAY have a “potentially significant impact” or “potentially significant unless mitigated” impact on the environment, but at least one eƯect 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets. An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the eƯects that remain to be addressed. ☐ I find that although the proposed project could have a significant eƯect on the environment, because all potentially significant eƯects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION pursuant to applicable standards, and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project, nothing further is required.

Evaluation of Environmental Impacts:
1) A brief explanation is required for all answers except "No Impact" answers that are adequately supported by the information sources a Lead Agency cites in the parentheses following each question. A "No Impact" answer is adequately supported if the referenced information sources show that the impact simply does not apply to projects like the one involved (e.g. the project falls outside a fault rupture zone). A "No Impact" answer should be explained where it is based on project-specific factors as well as general standards (e.g. the project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants, based on a project-specific screening analysis). 2) All answers must take account of the whole action involved, including off-site as well as on-site, cumulative as well as project-level, indirect as well as direct, and construction as well as operational impacts. 3) Once the Lead Agency has determined that a particular physical impact may occur, then the checklist answers must indicate whether the impact is potentially significant, less than significant with mitigation, or less than significant. "Potentially Significant Impact" is appropriate if there is substantial evidence that an effect is significant. If there are one or more "Potentially Significant Impact" entries when the determination is made, an EIR is required.
4) "Negative Declaration: Less Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporated" applies where the incorporation of mitigation measures has reduced an effect from "Potentially Significant Impact" to a "Less than Significant Impact." The Lead Agency must describe the mitigation measures, and briefly explain how they reduce the effect to a less than significant level (mitigation measures from Section XVII, "Earlier Analyses," may be crossreferenced). 5) Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, an effect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration. Section 15063(c)(3)(D). In this case, a brief discussion should identify the following:
a) Earlier Analysis Used. Identify and state where they are available for review. b) Impacts Adequately Addressed. Identify which effects from the above checklist were within the scope of and adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and state whether such effects were addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis. c) Mitigation Measures. For effects that are “Less than Significant with Mitigation Measures Incorporated,” describe the mitigation measures which were incorporated or refined from the earlier document and the extent to which they address site-specific conditions for the project. 6) Lead agencies are encouraged to incorporate into the checklist references to information sources for potential impacts (e.g., general plans, zoning ordinances). Reference to a previously prepared or outside document should, where appropriate, include a reference to the page or pages where the statement is substantiated. 7) Supporting Information Sources. A source list should be attached, and other sources used or individuals contacted should be cited in the discussion.
8) This is only a suggested form, and lead agencies are free to use different formats; however, lead agencies should normally address the questions from this checklist that are relevant to a project's environmental effects in whatever format is selected.
9) The explanation of each issue should identify:
a) the significance criteria or threshold, if any, used to evaluate each question; and b) the mitigation measure identified, if any, to reduce the impact to less than significance.

No Impact. The Project as evaluated herein entails applications for ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA-25-4, ZC-25- 2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 to allow for pre-zoning of the approximately 313.4-acre Annexation Area to facilitate future annexation of the Annexation Area into the boundaries of the City of Calimesa, and to permit the two existing warehouse buildings as required by (amended) Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa

Municipal Code. Under existing conditions, the Northern Annexation Area is developed with two existing occupied large industrial buildings measuring 1,012,760 s.f. and 811,000 s.f. in size, which previously were constructed pursuant to Riverside County approvals for GPA 534, CZ 7799, TPM 36564, and PPT 25337. In addition, there is an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the north-central boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north. Approximately 4.9 acres in the north-central portions of the Southern Annexation Area previously were developed as a truck equipment and repair business (Bonafide Truck Equipment and Repair), while an existing wireless tower facility previously was constructed in the southwestern portion of the Southern Annexation Area. The Bonafide Truck Equipment and Repair previously was entitled as part of Change of Zone No. 06288 (CZ06288) and Conditional Use Permit No. 03322 (CUP0322), while the wireless tower facility most recently was entitled pursuant to Plot Plan 16147 (PP16147). Proposed ANNX-25-1, GPA25-2, ZTA-25-4, ZC-25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would not allow for any new disturbance or development within the Annexation Area beyond the uses that already exist, and the proposed Project does not include applications for any new development. Rather, the Project comprises an administrative adjustment to the boundaries of the City of Calimesa and two CUPs to permit the two existing warehouse buildings within the Northern Annexation Area, none of which would result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions. There are no components of the proposed Project that would result in changes to aesthetic or lighting conditions associated with the Annexation Area. Accordingly, the Project would not: a) have a substantial adverse eƯect upon a scenic highway corridor within which it is located; b) substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway; c) substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality of public views of the site and its surroundings; or d) create a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely aƯect day or nighttime views in the area. No impact would occur.

No Impact. Under existing conditions, the 313.4-acre Annexation Area is classified by the California Department of Conservation (CDC) Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program (FMMP) as “Grazing Land,” “Farmland of Local Importance,” and “Other Lands,” and no portion of the Annexation Area is located within a Riverside County Agricultural Preserve or is subject to a Williamson Act Contract (CDC, n.d.; RCIT, n.d.).
Furthermore, the Project as evaluated herein entails applications for ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA-25-4, ZC25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 to allow for pre-zoning of the approximately 313.4-acre Annexation Area to facilitate future annexation of the Annexation Area into the boundaries of the City of Calimesa, and to permit the two existing warehouse buildings as required by (amended) Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code.

Rather, the Project comprises an administrative adjustment to the boundaries of the City of Calimesa and two CUPs to permit the two existing warehouse buildings, none of which would result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions. There are no components of the proposed Project that would result in an increase in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions beyond what already occurs under existing conditions, and there are no components of the proposed Project that would conflict with applicable policies and regulations related to GHGs, including the City of Calimesa’s General Plan. Accordingly, the Project would not: a) generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment; or b) conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases. No impact would occur.

The Project as evaluated herein entails applications for ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA-25-4, ZC-25- 2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 to allow for pre-zoning of the approximately 313.4-acre Annexation Areas to facilitate future annexation of the Annexation Areas into the boundaries of the City of Calimesa, and to permit the two existing warehouse buildings as required by (amended) Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code. Under existing conditions, the Northern Annexation Area partially is developed with two existing occupied large industrial buildings measuring 1,012,760 s.f. and 811,000 s.f. in size, which previously were constructed pursuant to Riverside County approvals for GPA 534, CZ 7799, TPM 36564, and PPT 25337, along with an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the northcentral boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north. Under existing conditions the Southern Annexation Area partially is developed with an existing wireless tower facility and a truck equipment and repair business (Bonafide Truck Equipment and Repair) previously entitled pursuant to PP16147 and CUP0322, respectively.
As part of the existing development within the Northern Annexation Area, a cooperative agreement (herein, “Agreement”) was executed between the property owner and the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (RCFCWCD), dated March 2, 2021. As a component of the Agreement, the developers of the existing development on site were required to construct certain flood control improvements. These improvements, which are depicted on RCFCWCD Drawing No. 5-0236, required the construction of approximately 4,150 lineal feet of underground storm drain lines (Line A) in the southern portions of the property, the construction of an outlet basin for Line A, construction of approximately 510 lineal feet of lateral storm drains (Lateral A-1), the construction of approximately 1,908 lineal feet of lateral storm drain (Lateral A-2), installation of approximately 9 lineal feet of lateral storm drain (Lateral A-8), installation of approximately 7 lineal feet of lateral storm drain (Lateral A-9), and construction of an inlet basin. These improvements were constructed as part of the existing development in the Northern Annexation Area, and the required improvements were accepted by RCFCWCD as documented in a letter from RCFCWCD dated January 8, 2024. The Agreement and January 8, 2024, letter from RCFCWCD are available for public review at the City of Calimesa Planning Department and can be reviewed during the City’s normal business hours at 908 Park Avenue, Calimesa, CA 92320.
Proposed ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA-25-4, ZC-25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would not allow for any new disturbance or development on site beyond the uses that already exist in the Annexation Areas, and the proposed Project does not include applications for any new development.

There are no components of the proposed Project or Annexation Areas that would have the potential to result in alterations to existing site drainage patterns, result in changes to surface water or groundwater quality, or that could result in changes to areas subject to flood hazards.
Accordingly, the Project would not: a) violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements or otherwise substantially degrade surface or ground water quality; b) substantially decrease groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that the project may impede sustainable groundwater management of the basin; c) substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river or through the addition of impervious surfaces, in a manner which would result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or oƯ-site; d) substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river or through the addition of impervious surfaces, in a manner which would substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoƯ in a manner which would result in flooding on- or oƯsite; e) substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river or through the addition of impervious surfaces, in a manner which would create or contribute runoƯ water which would exceed the capacity of existing or planned stormwater drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoƯ; f) substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river or through the addition of impervious surfaces, in a manner which would impede or redirect flood flows; g) risk the release of pollutants due to project inundation from floods, tsunamis, or seiches; or h) conflict with or obstruct implementation of a water quality control plan or sustainable groundwater management plan.

Municipal Code. Under existing conditions, the Northern Annexation Area partially is developed with two existing occupied large industrial buildings measuring 1,012,760 s.f. and 811,000 s.f. in size, which previously were constructed pursuant to Riverside County approvals for GPA 534, CZ 7799, TPM 36564, and PPT 25337, along with an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the northcentral boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north. Under existing conditions the Southern Annexation Area partially is developed with an existing wireless tower facility and a truck equipment and repair business (Bonafide Truck Equipment and Repair) previously entitled pursuant to PP16147 and CUP0322, respectively. Proposed ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA25-4, ZC-25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would not allow for any new disturbance or development on site beyond the uses that already exist in the Annexation Areas, and the proposed Project does not include applications for any new development. Rather, the Project comprises an administrative adjustment to the boundaries of the City of Calimesa and two CUPs to permit the two existing warehouse buildings, none of which would result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions.
With approval of GPA 25-2, the light industrial uses within the Northern Annexation Area would be designated by the General Plan for “Light Industrial (LI)” land uses with a “Warehouse Overlay Zone (WOZ),” and would be zoned for “Light Industrial (L-I)” land uses with a “Warehouse Overlay Zone (WOZ).” The northern portions of the Northern Annexation Area, along with small parcel of land along the east-central boundary of the Northern Annexation Area, would be designated for “Open Space Residential (1 DU/10 ac) (OSR)” land uses and would be zoned for “O-S-R (Open Space Residential).” The existing wireless tower facility and a truck equipment and repair business within the Southern Annexation Area would be designated by the General Plan for “Community Commercial (CC)” land uses and would be zoned for “C-C (Community Commercial, FAR 50:1),” while the eastern portions of the Southern Annexation Area would be designated for “Residential Estate (RE)” land uses and would be zoned for “R-E (Residential Estate).” The LI land use designation and L-I zoning classification allow development up to a floor area ratio (FAR) of
0.5 and permit industrial activities such as low-intensity packing, manufacturing, assembly of nonhazardous products and materials, and limited retail sales and services related to or supportive of manufacturing activity and employees. The existing light industrial buildings within the Northern Annexation Area and that are proposed to be designated for LI land uses and proposed to be zoned for L-I land uses have a total FAR between 0.25 and 0.34, which is below the maximum FAR for the LI land use designation and L-I zone, while the existing warehouse buildings are occupied by light industrial warehousing uses; thus, the existing warehouse buildings would be consistent with the site’s proposed LI land use designation and L-I zoning classification. In addition, Table 1, Northern Annexation Area Consistency with City of Calimesa Industrial Development Standards, provides an analysis of the existing development’s consistency with the Industrial Development Standards as set forth in Table 18.30.040 of Chapter 18.30 (Industrial Zone Districts) of the City’s Municipal Code. As shown, the existing warehouse buildings fully comply with all applicable development standards of the proposed “Light Industrial (L-I)” zone. In addition, approval of proposed ZC25-2, ZTA-25-4, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would permit the existing warehouse buildings that currently exceed the maximum 250,000 s.f. allowed within the L-I zone pursuant to Table 18.30.030 of the City’s Municipal Code, as approval of these applications would allow for warehouse buildings up to 1,100,000 s.f. in size with approval of the proposed CUP applications. Accordingly, and assuming approval of the Project’s

The CC land use designation and C-C zoning classification allow for large-scale commercial activities serving the City of Calimesa or the subregion, allow for a maximum FAR of 0.5, and permit a variety of commercial uses, including “Appliance stores and repair (large appliances),” “Automative repair garages, which do not include body and fender shops or spray painting” (subject to compliance with the development standards for commercial districts as set forth in Section 18.25.050 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code), and wireless communication facilities (with approval of a Conditional Use Permit). Table 2, Southern Annexation Area – Existing Truck Equipment and Repair Facility Consistency with City of Calimesa Commercial Development Standards, provides an analysis of the existing Bonafide Truck and Equipment Repair facility’s consistency with the Industrial Development Standards as set forth in Table 18.25.040 of Chapter 18.25 (Commercial Zone Districts) of the City’s Municipal Code. As shown, the existing Bonafide Truck and Equipment Repair facility fully complies with all applicable development standards of the proposed C-C zone. In addition, the existing wireless tower facility is a permitted use within the proposed CC zone with approval of a CUP. The existing wireless tower facility most recently was permitted by Riverside County PP16147, which includes site-specific conditions of approval that are functionally equivalent to a CUP, and as such the existing wireless tower facility would be considered a permitted use within the proposed CC land use designation and C-C zone. Accordingly, the Project would not result in any impacts due to a conflict with the site’s proposed CC land use designation or C-C zoning classification.

The “OSR – Open Space Residential (1 DU/10 AC)” land use designation and the “O-S-R (Open Space Residential)” zoning classification are intended to preserve open space while allowing for limited detached single-family development on parcels of 10 acres or greater, and also allows for agricultural-related uses.
No development is planned as part of the Project within the areas proposed to be designated for OSR land uses or that would be zoned for O-S-R land uses. There is an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the north-central boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north. No changes are proposed to the existing equestrian shade structure/stable and pasture as part of the Project. Private equestrian stables are identified as a permitted use within the O-S-R zoning classification. Accordingly, the Project would not result in any impacts due to a conflict with the site’s proposed OSR land use designation or O-S-R zoning classification.
The “RE (Residential Estate)” land use designation and the “R-E (Residential Estate)” zoning classification are intended to accommodate single-family detached homes as well as buildings and structures related to agriculture, farm use, animal keeping, and equestrian uses on minimum 5-acre lot sizes. No development is proposed as part of the Project within the eastern portions of the Southern Annexation Area that are proposed to be designated for RE land uses and that would be zoned for R-E land uses, and there is no existing development within this portion of the Southern Annexation Area. It should be noted that under existing conditions, the Riverside County General Plan designates this portion of the Southern Annexation Area for “Community Development – Very Low Density Residential (CD-VLDR)” land uses, which allows for residential development on minimum one-acre lot sizes. Thus, the Project would not result in any impacts due to a conflict with the proposed RE land use designation or R-E zoning classification, and the Project would not allow for more dwelling units than is allowed on site under existing conditions based on the existing Riverside County CD-VLDR General Plan land use designation.
In addition, there are no components of the proposed Project that would have the potential to physically divide an established community, or that could cause a significant environmental impact due to a conflict with any land use plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental eƯect.

Under existing conditions, the Northern Annexation Area partially is developed with two existing occupied large industrial buildings measuring 1,012,760 s.f. and 811,000 s.f. in size, which previously were constructed pursuant to Riverside County approvals for GPA 534, CZ 7799, TPM 36564, and PPT 25337, along with an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the northcentral boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north. Under existing conditions the Southern Annexation Area partially is developed with an existing wireless tower facility and a truck equipment and repair business (Bonafide Truck Equipment and Repair) previously entitled pursuant to PP16147 and CUP0322, respectively. Proposed ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA25-4, ZC-25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would not allow for any new disturbance or development on site beyond the uses that already exist in the Annexation Areas, and the proposed Project does not include applications for any new development. Rather, the Project comprises an administrative adjustment to the boundaries of the City of Calimesa and two CUPs to permit the two existing warehouse buildings, none of which would result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions.
According to mapping information available from the California State Mining and Geology Board (formerly the Division of Mines and Geology), both the Northern Annexation Area and the Southern Annexation Area
City of Calimesa Final Negative Declaration
Annexation Project Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8
are located classified as occurring within Mineral Resources Zone (MRZ) 3, which is defined as, “[a]reas containing mineral deposits the significance of which cannot be evaluated from available data” (CDC, n.d.).
Accordingly, the Project has no potential to result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of value to the region or the residents of the State, and no impact would occur. In addition, the City of Calimesa General Plan, the Riverside County General Plan, and the Riverside County The Pass Area Plan (TPAP) do not identify the Annexation Area as a locally-important mineral resource recovery site, the Annexation Area is not subject to any approved specific plans, and there are no other plans that designate the Annexation Area as a locally-important mineral resource recovery site. (Calimesa, 2014; Riverside County, 2021a; Riverside County, 2021b) As such, the Project has no potential to result in potential impacts to mineral resources. Therefore, the Project would not: a) result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of value to the region or the residents of the State; or b) result in the loss of availability of a locally-important mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan.

The Project as evaluated herein entails applications for ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA-25-4, ZC-25- 2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 to allow for pre-zoning of the approximately 313.4-acre Annexation Areas to facilitate future annexation of the Annexation Areas into the boundaries of the City of Calimesa, and to permit the two existing warehouse buildings as required by (amended) Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code. Under existing conditions, the Northern Annexation Area partially is developed with two existing occupied large industrial buildings measuring 1,012,760 s.f. and 811,000 s.f. in size, which previously were constructed pursuant to Riverside County approvals for GPA 534, CZ 7799, TPM 36564, and PPT 25337, along with an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the northcentral boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north. Under existing conditions the Southern Annexation Area partially is developed with an existing wireless tower facility and a truck equipment and repair business (Bonafide Truck Equipment and Repair) previously entitled pursuant to PP16147 and CUP0322, respectively. Proposed ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA25-4, ZC-25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would not allow for any new disturbance or development on site beyond the uses that already exist in the Annexation Areas, and the proposed Project does not include applications for any new development. Rather, the Project comprises an administrative adjustment to the boundaries of the City of Calimesa and two CUPs to permit the two existing warehouse buildings, none of which would result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions. Accordingly, the proposed Project would have no potential to result in impacts due to construction- or operational-related noise or vibration beyond what already occurs under existing conditions, and there are no components of the proposed Project that would result in the exposure of people residing or working in the area to excessive airport-related noise levels beyond what already occurs under existing conditions. Therefore, the Project would not: a) generate a substantial temporary or permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the vicinity of the Project in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance; b) generate excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne noise levels; or c) expose people residing or working in the Project area to excessive noise levels. No impact would occur.

No Impact. The Project as evaluated herein entails applications for ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA-25-4, ZC-25- 2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 to allow for pre-zoning of the approximately 313.4-acre Annexation Areas to facilitate future annexation of the Annexation Areas into the boundaries of the City of Calimesa, and to permit the two existing warehouse buildings as required by (amended) Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code. Under existing conditions, the Northern Annexation Area partially is developed with two existing occupied large industrial buildings measuring 1,012,760 s.f. and 811,000 s.f. in size, which previously were constructed pursuant to Riverside County approvals for GPA 534, CZ 7799, TPM 36564, and PPT 25337, along with an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the northcentral boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north. Under existing conditions the Southern Annexation Area partially is developed with an existing wireless tower facility and a truck equipment and repair business (Bonafide Truck Equipment and Repair) previously entitled pursuant to PP16147 and CUP0322, respectively. Proposed ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA25-4, ZC-25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would not allow for any new disturbance or development on site beyond the uses that already exist in the Annexation Areas, and the proposed Project does not include applications for any new development. Rather, the Project comprises an administrative adjustment to the boundaries of the City of Calimesa and two CUPs to permit the two existing warehouse buildings, none of which would result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions.
The portions of the Annexation Area that are proposed to be designated by the Calimesa General Plan for “Light Industrial (LI)” land uses with a “Warehouse Overlay Zone (WOZ)” and that would be zoned for zoned for “Light Industrial (L-I)” land uses with a “Warehouse Overlay Zone (WOZ)” already are fully developed with warehouse uses. The portions of the Annexation Areas proposed designated by the General Plan for “Community Commercial (CC)” land uses and that would be zoned for “C-C (Community Commercial, FAR 50:1)” are partially developed with an existing truck and equipment repair facility and wireless tower. While there is a potential that additional development could occur within the areas to be designated for CC land uses and that would be zoned for C-C, such future development already is accounted by regional plans (e.g., the South Coast Air Quality Management District [SCAQMD], Southern California Association of Governments [SCAG] growth projections, etc.) because the new land use designations and zoning classifications under the City of Calimesa align with the existing Riverside County General Plan land use designation for the site. Likewise, while there is a potential for additional future development within the areas proposed to be designated for Open Space Residential (1 DU/10 ac) (OSR)” land uses and that would be zoned for “O-S-R (Open Space Residential)” and in the areas proposed to be designated for “Residential Estate (RE)” land uses and would be zoned for “R-E (Residential Estate),” any such future development also already is accounted for by regional plans and the Riverside County General Plan. In fact, development within the portions of the site proposed to be designated RE and zoned R-E within the Southern Annexation Area would be limited to one residential dwelling unit per five acres, while the existing Riverside County General Plan land use designation for this portion of the Southern Annexation Area currently allows
City of Calimesa Final Negative Declaration
Annexation Project Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8
residential development on minimum one-acre lot sizes; thus, the Project would not allow for an increase in the site’s planned residential population as compared to the site’s existing Riverside County General Plan land use designation of CD-VLDR. The land use designations and zoning classifications proposed as part of the Project for the Northern Annexation Area and Southern Annexation Area therefore would not allow for any intensification of population growth beyond what already is accounted for under existing conditions. No impact would occur.
The proposed Project would not authorize any new development on site. While existing residential communities occur to the southeast, southwest, and west of the Annexation Areas, there are no components of the proposed Project that would physically divide these existing established communities.
Even with future development on the undeveloped portions of the Annexation Areas, roadway connections between these existing communities would be maintained. As such, the Project would not displace substantial numbers of existing people or housing, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere, and no impact would occur.
Therefore, the Project would not: a) induce substantial unplanned population growth in an area, either directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure); or b) displace substantial numbers of existing people or housing, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere. No impact would occur.

The Project as evaluated herein entails applications for ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA-25-4, ZC-25- 2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 to allow for pre-zoning of the approximately 313.4-acre Annexation Areas to facilitate future annexation of the Annexation Areas into the boundaries of the City of Calimesa, and to permit the two existing warehouse buildings as required by (amended) Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code. Under existing conditions, the Northern Annexation Area partially is developed with two existing occupied large industrial buildings measuring 1,012,760 s.f. and 811,000 s.f. in size, which previously were constructed pursuant to Riverside County approvals for GPA 534, CZ 7799, TPM 36564, and PPT 25337, along with an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the northcentral boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north. Under existing conditions the Southern Annexation Area partially is developed with an existing wireless tower facility and a truck equipment and repair business (Bonafide Truck Equipment and Repair) previously entitled pursuant to PP16147 and CUP0322, respectively. Proposed ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA25-4, ZC-25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would not allow for any new disturbance or development on site beyond the uses that already exist in the Annexation Areas, and the proposed Project does not include applications for any new development. Rather, the Project comprises an administrative adjustment to the boundaries of the City of Calimesa and two CUPs to permit the two existing warehouse buildings, none of which would result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions.
The Project does not include any proposed public facilities on site, such as fire stations, police facilities, school facilities, park facilities, or any other public facilities such as health care facilities or libraries. In addition, the Project would not allow for an intensification of land uses on site as compared to the site’s adopted Riverside County General Plan land use designations or zoning classifications; thus, the Project would not result in an increase in demand for public services beyond what occurs on site or that is planned on site under existing conditions.
The City of Calimesa Fire Marshal and Fire Chief reviewed the Project’s applications for GPA 22-04, ZC 22- 02, CUP 24-02, and CUP 24-03, and determined that because the existing buildings within the Northern Annexation Area and Southern Annexation Area were constructed in accordance with Riverside County’s building standards, including standards related to fire protection and the California Fire Code (as adopted by Riverside County), the Fire Marshal and Fire Chief determined that the existing development would not pose a substantial adverse eƯect associated with wildland fire hazards. In addition, and in response to growth in the Project area, a new fire station is planned to be constructed on a three-acre site within Planning Area TC-4 of the Oak Valley Town Center Specific Plan, which ultimately would provide fire protection services to the Annexation Area. Funding for the new fire station is anticipated to be accomplished through the imposition of impact fees on new developments within the City pursuant to City of Calimesa Municipal Code Chapter 18.115 (Development Impact Fees), including impact fees that may be assessed on future development within the Northern Annexation Area or Southern Annexation Area.
With respect to police protection services, under existing conditions police protection services to the Annexation Areas are provided by the Riverside County SheriƯ’s Department (RCSD) from their Cabazon Station, located at 50290 Main Street, Cabazon, CA 92230, located approximately 13.8 miles southeast of
City of Calimesa Final Negative Declaration
Annexation Project Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8
the Annexation Areas. The City of Calimesa contracts with the RCSD to provide police protection services within the City limits, with police protection services to the City also provided by the Cabazon Station. Thus, because the existing developments within the Project area already are served by the RCSD from the Cabazon Station, and because the existing developments would continue to be served by the RCSD with approval of the Project’s proposed annexation into the City of Calimesa, the proposed Project would not result in an increase in demand for police protection services. Mandatory payment of fees, which already has occurred as part of building permits issued by Riverside County and/or would be required for any new development proposed within the Northern Annexation Area or Southern Annexation Area, would ensure that existing or future development within the Annexation Areas has no adverse eƯects on police protection facilities and that existing or future development within the Annexation Areas would have no eƯect on service ratios, response times or other performance objectives.
As noted above, any future development within the Northern Annexation Area or Southern Annexation Area following Project approval would be required to contribute fees pursuant City of Calimesa Municipal Code Chapter 18.115 (Development Impact Fees), which, in addition to fire protection and police facilities, would provide fair-share funding for any new or expanded parks or other public facilities necessitated by such future development. Additionally, any new development within the Annexation Areas would be subject to payment of school impact fees pursuant to Leroy F. Greene School Facilities Act of 1998 at the rates established by the Beaumont Unified School District (BUSD), which would constitute full and complete mitigation for any future impacts to school services.
Accordingly, the Project would not result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered fire protection, police, school, park, library, or health care facilities, need for new or physically altered fire protection, police, school, park, library, or health care facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives.

The Project as evaluated herein entails applications for ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA-25-4, ZC-25- 2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 to allow for pre-zoning of the approximately 313.4-acre Annexation Areas to facilitate future annexation of the Annexation Areas into the boundaries of the City of Calimesa, and to permit the two existing warehouse buildings as required by (amended) Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code. Under existing conditions, the Northern Annexation Area partially is developed with two existing occupied large industrial buildings measuring 1,012,760 s.f. and 811,000 s.f. in size, which previously were constructed pursuant to Riverside County approvals for GPA 534, CZ 7799, TPM 36564, and PPT 25337, along with an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the northcentral boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north. Under existing conditions the Southern Annexation Area partially is developed with an existing wireless tower facility and a truck equipment and repair business (Bonafide Truck Equipment and Repair) previously entitled pursuant to PP16147 and CUP0322, respectively. Proposed ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA25-4, ZC-25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would not allow for any new disturbance or development on site beyond the uses that already exist in the Annexation Areas, and the proposed Project does not include applications for any new development. Rather, the Project comprises an administrative adjustment to the boundaries of the City of Calimesa and two CUPs to permit the two existing warehouse buildings, none of which would result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions.
The proposed Project does not include any proposal for new or expanded recreational facilities on site; thus, the Project would not include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities which might have an adverse physical eƯect on the environment. Additionally, according to City of Calimesa General Plan Figure OSPR-2 (Trails Master Plan), no portion of the Southern Annexation Area is planned to include any trail connections. Although the Trails Master Plan exhibit identifies “Unknown” trails within the Northern Annexation Area, the existing warehouse developments within the Northern Annexation Area were designed to accommodate on-site trails that connect with the existing “Unknown” trails present within the northern portions of the Northern Annexation Area. Thus, the Project would not conflict with the Trails Master Plan.
In addition, the Project would not authorize any new development on site beyond what already is allowed on site under existing conditions; thus, the Project would not include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities which might have an adverse physical eƯect on the environment. Any such new development within the Annexation Areas in the future would be subject to review for compliance with CEQA, and any such new development on the Annexation Areas would be required to contribute DIF fees pursuant to City of Calimesa Municipal Code Chapter 18.115 (Development Impact Fees) and/or would be required to accommodate parkland on site. As the proposed Project would not authorize any new development on site, the proposed Project would not increase the use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated.

facilitate future annexation of the Annexation Areas into the boundaries of the City of Calimesa, and to permit the two existing warehouse buildings as required by (amended) Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code. Under existing conditions, the Northern Annexation Area partially is developed with two existing occupied large industrial buildings measuring 1,012,760 s.f. and 811,000 s.f. in size, which previously were constructed pursuant to Riverside County approvals for GPA 534, CZ 7799, TPM 36564, and PPT 25337, along with an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the northcentral boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north.

Proposed ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA25-4, ZC-25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would not allow for any new disturbance or development on site beyond the uses that already exist in the Annexation Areas, and the proposed Project does not include applications for any new development. Rather, the Project comprises an administrative adjustment to the boundaries of the City of Calimesa and two CUPs to permit the two existing warehouse buildings, none of which would result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions.
No new development is proposed as part of the Project, and the Project would not entail any changes to the existing transportation system. As such, the Project has no potential to conflict with City of Calimesa General Plan policies related to transportation, including the policies contained within the General Plan Circulation Element. Similarly, because no new development is proposed the proposed Project has no potential to conflict with the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) 2024-2050 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS). In addition, according to City of Calimesa General Plan Figure OSPR-2 (Trails Master Plan), no portion of the Southern Annexation Area is planned to include any trail connections. Although the Trails Master Plan exhibit identifies “Unknown” trails within the Northern Annexation Area, the existing warehouse developments within the Northern Annexation Area were designed to accommodate on-site trails that connect with the existing “Unknown” trails present within the northern portions of the Northern Annexation Area. There are no other applicable plans, policies, programs, or ordinances related to transportation in eƯect in the Project area. Accordingly, the Project has no potential to conflict with a program, plan, ordinance or policy addressing the circulation system, including transit, roadway, bicycle, and pedestrian facilities.
The provisions of CEQA Guidelines section 15064.3, subdivision (b) relate to Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT).
Any future proposals for development within the Annexation Area would be required to be evaluated under CEQA, which would require an evaluation of potential VMT impacts in accordance with the City of Calimesa’s Final City of Calimesa Transportation Impact Analysis Guidelines for Vehicle Miles Traveled and Level of Service Assessment (May 2020) (Calimesa, 2020). Notwithstanding, because no new development is proposed as part of the Project, the proposed Project would have no potential to result in an increase in VMT per capita within the local area. As such, the proposed Project has no potential to conflict with CEQA Guidelines section 15064.3, subdivision (b).
No new roadway improvements or intersections are proposed as part of the Project. As such, the Project would have no potential to substantially increase hazards due to a geometric design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections). In addition, the land use designations and zoning classifications
City of Calimesa Final Negative Declaration
Annexation Project Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8
proposed for the Northern Annexation Area and Southern Annexation Area are substantially consistent with the site’s adopted Riverside County General Plan land use designations and zoning classifications; thus, the proposed Project would not result in any impacts due to incompatible uses (e.g. farm equipment) beyond what already is allowed under the site’s adopted Riverside County General Plan land use designations and zoning classifications. Furthermore, because no new roadways are proposed as part of the Project and because the Project would not result in the generation of any new traƯic within the local area, the Project would not cause an eƯect upon or a need for new or altered maintenance of roads. Similarly, because no roadway improvements are proposed as part of the Project and no new development would be authorized with Project approval, the proposed Project would not result in inadequate emergency access or access to nearby uses.
Based on the preceding analysis, the proposed Project would not : a) conflict with a program, plan, ordinance or policy addressing the circulation system, including transit, roadway, bicycle, and pedestrian facilities; b) conflict or be inconsistent with CEQA Guidelines section 15064.3, subdivision (b); c) substantially increase hazards due to a geometric design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment); d) cause an eƯect upon, or a need for new or altered maintenance of roads; e) cause an eƯect upon circulation during the project’s construction; or f) result in inadequate emergency access or access to nearby uses.

No Impact. Changes in the California Environmental Quality Act, eƯective July 2015, require that the City address another category of cultural resources – tribal cultural resources. Tribal Cultural Resources (TCRs) are those resources with inherent tribal values that are diƯicult to identify through the same means as archaeological resources. These resources can be identified and understood through direct consultation with the tribes who attach tribal value to the resource. Tribal cultural resources may include Native American archaeological sites, but they may also include other types of resources such as a cultural landscape. Also relevant is the category termed “traditional cultural property” (TCP) which is typically associated with cultural resource management performed under federal auspices. “Traditional” in this context refers to those beliefs, customs, and practices of a living community of people that have been passed down through the generations, usually orally or through practice. The traditional cultural significance of a historic property, then, is significance derived from the role the property plays in a community’s historically rooted beliefs, customs, and practices. A TCP can be defined, generally, as one that is eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) because of its association with cultural practices or beliefs of a living community that (a) are rooted in that community’s history, and (b) are important in maintaining the continuing cultural identity of the community. A landscape can be a TCP and by extension a TCR, provided the cultural landscape meets the criteria and that the landscape is geographically defined in terms of the size and scope. The appropriate treatment of tribal cultural resources is determined through consultation with tribes.

Of the Tribes listed above, the following Tribes provided responses to the City:
• The Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians responded in a letter dated February 5, 2026, requesting consultation and copies of any cultural resource documentation. The City provided additional information via email on February 5, 2026. The tribe did not identify any TCRs and did not request any mitigation measures. Consultation with the Tribe was concluded in a letter dated February 9, 2026. • The Augustine Band of Cahuilla Mission Indians responded and declined consultation in a letter dated January 13, 2026.
• The Cahuilla Band of Mission Indians acknowledged receipt of the consultation letter on January 9, 2026, and advised that the Tribe would notify the City if they wanted to consult. No further correspondence was received, and consultation closed on April 8, 2026. • The Morongo Band of Mission Indians responded in a letter dated January 20, 2026, requesting consultation and copies of any cultural resource documentation. An initial consultation meeting occurred on February 4, 2026, and a follow up consultation meeting occurred on April 8, 2026. The Tribe reminded the City that SB 18 and/or AB 52 notifications may be required should aƯected parcels apply for future approvals that involve ground disturbance. The Tribe advised via email on April 8, 2026, that no further action was needed and consultation was closed at that time. • The Pala Band of Mission Indians responded and declined consultation in a letter dated January 29, 2026.
• The Rincon Band of Luiseno Indians responded via email on January 15, 2026, and stated that the Tribe has no information to provide. The Tribe recommended that the City coordinate with tribes that are geographically closer to Calimesa.
• The Yuhaaviatam of San Manuel Nation responded via email on January 27, 2026, that the Tribe elected not to consult. However, the tribe requested that the City reach out to discuss further if the proposed plans change to allow for any ground disturbing development that may be approved via an expeditated process for which tribal consultation pursuant to CEQA would not be initiated.
Based on the results of the consultation eƯorts between the City and the tribes, no tribal cultural resources, as defined in Public Resources Code section 21074 as either a site, feature, place, or cultural landscape that
City of Calimesa Final Negative Declaration
Annexation Project Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8
is geographically defined in terms of the size and scope of the landscape, sacred place, or object with cultural value to a California Native American tribe, were identified within the Annexation Areas. Additionally, the Project evaluated herein consists of the proposed annexation of the approximately 313.4-acre Annexation Area from the County of Riverside into the City of Calimesa, and would not authorize any new ground disturbances or development. Thus, even if tribal cultural resources did occur within the Annexation Areas, such resources would not be impacted by the proposed Project because the Project consists only of the administrative adjustment to the City of Calimesa city boundaries and would not result in any physical disturbances.
Accordingly, the proposed Project would not cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a tribal cultural resource, defined in Public Resources Code section 21074 as either a site, feature, place, or cultural landscape that is geographically defined in terms of the size and scope of the landscape, sacred place, or object with cultural value to a California Native American tribe, and that is listed or eligible for listing in the California Register of Historical resources or in a local register of historical resources as defined in Public Resources Code section 5020.1(k), and no impact would occur. Similarly, the proposed Project would not cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a tribal cultural resource, defined in Public Resources Code section 21074 as either a site, feature, place, or cultural landscape that is geographically defined in terms of the size and scope of the landscape, sacred place, or object with cultural value to a California Native American tribe, and that is a resource determined by the lead agency, in its discretion and supported by substantial evidence, to be significant pursuant to criteria set forth in subdivision (c) of Public Resources Code section 5024.1, and no impact would occur. Accordingly, Project impacts to Tribal Cultural Resources would be less than significant requiring no mitigation measures.

No Impact. The Project as evaluated herein entails applications for ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA-25-4, ZC-25- 2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 to allow for pre-zoning of the approximately 313.4-acre Annexation Areas to facilitate future annexation of the Annexation Areas into the boundaries of the City of Calimesa, and to permit the two existing warehouse buildings as required by (amended) Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code. Under existing conditions, the Northern Annexation Area partially is developed with two existing occupied large industrial buildings measuring 1,012,760 s.f. and 811,000 s.f. in size, which previously were constructed pursuant to Riverside County approvals for GPA 534, CZ 7799, TPM 36564, and PPT 25337, along with an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the northcentral boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north. Under existing conditions the Southern Annexation Area partially is developed with an existing wireless tower facility and a truck equipment and repair business (Bonafide Truck Equipment and Repair) previously entitled pursuant to PP16147 and CUP0322, respectively. Proposed ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA25-4, ZC-25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would not allow for any new disturbance or development on site

beyond the uses that already exist in the Annexation Areas, and the proposed Project does not include applications for any new development. Rather, the Project comprises an administrative adjustment to the boundaries of the City of Calimesa and two CUPs to permit the two existing warehouse buildings, none of which would result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions.
No new development or construction activities are proposed as part of the Project. Thus, the Project would not require or result in the relocation or construction of new or expanded water, wastewater treatment or storm water drainage, electric power, natural gas, or telecommunications facilities, the construction or relocation of which could cause significant environmental eƯects.
Figure 7, City of Calimesa Existing Sphere of Influence, Figure 8, City of Beaumont Existing Sphere of Influence, and Figure 9, Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District Service Area and Sphere of Influence, depict the existing jurisdictional boundaries and adopted Spheres of Influence (SOIs) for the two cities and the water district most relevant to the existing wet utility service context in the vicinity of the Annexation Area.
Figure 7 depicts the existing boundary of the City of Calimesa and its adopted SOI. Figure 8 depicts the BCVWD's existing water service boundary and its adopted SOI, which was adopted in 2006. Figure 9 depicts the existing boundary of the City of Beaumont and its adopted SOI. As shown on these figures, and as discussed further below, no single agency currently maintains a jurisdictional boundary or adopted SOI that encompasses the entire Annexation Areas for both potable water and sanitary sewer service.
The Northern Annexation Area is within the Yucaipa Valley Water District (YVWD) service area for potable water service. The YVWD’s 2020 Integrated Regional Urban Water Management Plan (2020 IRUWMP) provides information on YVWD's projected supplies and demands in five-year increments through the year 2045, and reports YVWD's progress on water use eƯiciency targets as defined in the Water Conservation Act of 2009. The 2020 IRUWMP relies on demographic forecast data available from the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), which in turn bases population forecasts in part on the land use designations specified by local general plans. The existing warehouse developments within the Northern Annexation Area were developed in accordance with their existing Riverside County General Plan land use designations, and thus water demand associated with these existing developments already was accounted for by the 2020 IRUWMP. (YVWD, 2021, p. 2-17) Moreover, as part of the development of the two warehouses within the Northern Annexation Area, the YVWD previously indicated that it has the ability to serve the existing development as part of Development Agreement No. 2021-12 between the YVWD and the developer of the warehouse buildings that was executed in August 2021, a copy of which is on file at the City of Calimesa Planning Department and can be reviewed during the City’s normal business hours at 908 Park Avenue, Calimesa, CA 92320.
The Northern Annexation area is within the jurisdictional boundary of the Yucaipa Valley Water District, which provides water and sanitary sewer to the existing warehouse development. As noted above, the Southern Annexation Area is not currently located within the jurisdictional service territory of any water or sanitary sewer provider. The Southern Annexation Area is located within the Sphere of Influence (SOI) of the Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District (BCVWD) for potable water service but is not located within the jurisdictional boundary or SOI of any provider for sanitary sewer service.

Annexation Project Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8
(YVWD Resolution No. 2020-31), which requires YVWD to provide bundled potable water, non-potable water, and sanitary sewer service to any parcel it serves, precludes YVWD from providing sanitary sewer service alone to the Southern Annexation Area while the BCVWD's SOI designation for water service remains in place. Accordingly, the Riverside County LAFCO will make the determination as to the service provider for the Southern Annexation Areas. Any future developments that would be allowed within the Annexation Area with Project approval would be required be consistent with the General Plan land use designations proposed for these portions of the site. Thus, any future development on site also would be consistent with the 2020 IRUWMP growth projections, which demonstrates that the YVWD would have suƯicient capacity to provide potable water within its service area through at least 2045 during normal, dry, and multiple dry years.
No new development is proposed as part of the Project within the Northern Annexation Area. The Northern Annexation Area's existing warehouse developments already receive wastewater treatment service from YVWD, consistent with the YVWD's Bundled Service Policy discussed above, which requires YVWD to provide bundled potable water, non-potable water, and sanitary sewer service to any parcel it serves. Thus, the Project would have no potential to result in an increase in wastewater requiring treatment by YVWD facilities within the Northern Annexation Area, and as such the Project would have no potential to result in a determination by YVWD that it has inadequate capacity to serve the Project’s projected demand in addition to the provider’s existing commitments. Any future development within the Northern Annexation Area would be required to be consistent with the City’s adopted General Plan land use designations, and because YVWD’s long-range plans anticipate providing wastewater treatment services for planned developments within its service area consistent with those designations, Thus, any such future development would not exceed the wastewater treatment capacity at existing or planned YVWD facilities.
As discussed above, the Southern Annexation Area is not currently located within YVWD's service area or SOI for potable water or sanitary sewer service, and therefore the existing demand generated by the Southern Annexation Area's existing uses was not included in the growth projections or supply planning presented in YVWD's 2020 IRUWMP. Nonetheless, the 2020 IRUWMP demonstrates that YVWD maintains substantial surplus water supply under normal, single-dry, and multiple-dry-year conditions. YVWD's water supply portfolio consists of local groundwater (62.7 percent of drinking water supply in 2020), imported State Water Project water purchased from the San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District and the San Gorgonio Pass Water Agency (35.8 percent), and local surface water and recycled water (the remainder). The 2020 IRUWMP's Normal Year Supply and Demand Comparison projects a surplus of supply over demand ranging from approximately 42,892 acre-feet per year (AFY) in 2025 to approximately 70,554 AFY in 2045, with comparable surpluses projected under single-dry-year and multiple-dry-year scenarios. No new development is proposed within the Southern Annexation Area as part of the Project, and the existing on-site land uses (i.e., the truck equipment and repair business and the wireless communications facility) would continue to generate water and wastewater demand consistent with existing conditions, without an increase in demand. Given the magnitude of YVWD's surplus water supply relative to the modest demand associated with these existing uses, YVWD would have suƯicient water supply to serve the Southern Annexation Area, once annexed into its service area, during normal, dry, and multiple dry years. With respect to wastewater treatment capacity, YVWD's Wochholz Regional Water Recycling Facility (WRWRF) has a treatment capacity of 8.0 million gallons per day (MGD) and treated approximately 4,237 acre-feet of wastewater (an average of approximately 3.8 MGD) collected from its service area in 2020, indicating substantial remaining capacity, and the facility ultimately can be expanded to treat up to 11 MGD. Because the Project would not increase
City of Calimesa Final Negative Declaration
Annexation Project Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8
wastewater generation within the Southern Annexation Area beyond existing conditions, wastewater generated by the Southern Annexation Area's existing and any future uses would not exceed YVWD's wastewater treatment capacity, once the Southern Annexation Area is annexed into YVWD's service area for sanitary sewer service as discussed above. However, the Southern Annexation Area is located within the Sphere of Influence (SOI) of the Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District (BCVWD) for potable water service, but is not located within the jurisdictional boundary or SOI of any provider for sanitary sewer service. The YVWD's Bundled Service Policy (YVWD Resolution No. 2020-31), which requires YVWD to provide bundled potable water, non-potable water, and sanitary sewer service to any parcel it serves, precludes YVWD from providing sanitary sewer service alone to the Southern Annexation Area while the BCVWD's SOI designation for water service remains in place. Accordingly, the Riverside County LAFCO will make the determination as to the service provider for the Northern and Southern Annexation Areas.
There are no components of the proposed Project that would result in the generation of solid waste in excess of State or local standards, or in excess of the capacity of local infrastructure, and there are no components of the proposed Project that would otherwise impair the attainment of solid waste reduction goals. Any future development on site would be required to comply with the City of Calimesa solid waste regulations (City of Calimesa Municipal Code, Chapter 8.30, Waste Management, Refuse Collection and Disposal Services), and there are no components of the proposed Project that would result in an increase in solid waste generation or that could result in a conflict with federal, state, and local management and reduction statutes and regulations related to solid waste.
Accordingly, the Project would not: a) require or result in the relocation or construction of new or expanded water, wastewater treatment or storm water drainage, electric power, natural gas, or telecommunications facilities, the construction or relocation of which could cause significant environmental eƯects; b) have insuƯicient water supplies available to serve the project and reasonably foreseeable future development during normal, dry and multiple dry years; c) result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project’s projected demand in addition to the provider’s existing commitments; d) generate solid waste in excess of State or local standards, or in excess of the capacity of local infrastructure, or otherwise impair the attainment of solid waste reduction goals; or e) fail to comply with federal, State, and local management and reduction statutes and regulations related to solid waste. No impact would occur.

The Project as evaluated herein entails applications for ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA-25-4, ZC-25- 2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 to allow for pre-zoning of the approximately 313.4-acre Annexation Areas to facilitate future annexation of the Annexation Areas into the boundaries of the City of Calimesa, and to permit the two existing warehouse buildings as required by (amended) Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code. Under existing conditions, the Northern Annexation Area partially is developed with two existing occupied large industrial buildings measuring 1,012,760 s.f. and 811,000 s.f. in size, which previously

were constructed pursuant to Riverside County approvals for GPA 534, CZ 7799, TPM 36564, and PPT 25337, along with an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the northcentral boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north. Under existing conditions the Southern Annexation Area partially is developed with an existing wireless tower facility and a truck equipment and repair business (Bonafide Truck Equipment and Repair) previously entitled pursuant to PP16147 and CUP0322, respectively. Proposed ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA25-4, ZC-25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would not allow for any new disturbance or development on site beyond the uses that already exist in the Annexation Area, and the proposed Project does not include applications for any new development. Rather, the Project comprises an administrative adjustment to the boundaries of the City of Calimesa and two CUPs to permit the two existing warehouse buildings, none of which would result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions.
According to mapping information available from CalFire, the Southern Annexation Area is located within a Local Responsibility Area (LRA), and is classified as having a “Very High” susceptibility to wildfire hazards, while the Northern Annexation Area is located within a State Responsibility Area (SRA) and also is classified as having a “Very High” susceptibility to wildland fire hazards (CalFire, 2025). All lands surrounding the Annexation Area similarly are classified as having a “Very High” susceptibility to wildfire hazards. No new development is proposed on site as part of the Project, and as such the Project would have no potential to exacerbate wildfire hazards in the local area beyond what already occurs under existing conditions. In addition, both of the existing warehouse buildings within the Northern Annexation Area were developed in a manner that includes a concrete parking areas and/or irrigated landscape areas that extend to at least 100 feet around each side of the existing structures, which adequately provides for fire protection under existing conditions. Although the existing Bonafide Truck and Repair Equipment facility within the Southern Annexation Area accommodates only approximately 50 feet of non-flammable areas between the existing building and natural vegetation to the east, any fire hazards associated with this existing structure already occur under existing conditions, and there are no components of the proposed Project that would increase fire hazards potentially aƯecting the existing truck and equipment repair facility. Furthermore, any future development within the Annexation Area would be reviewed by the Riverside County Fire Department to ensure that adequate areas of fuel management are accommodate to reduce potential wildfire hazards to less-than-significant levels. Furthermore, and in response to growth in the Project area, a new fire station is planned to be constructed on a three-acre site within Planning Area TC-4 of the Oak Valley Town Center Specific Plan, which ultimately would provide fire protection services to the Annexation Area. Funding for the new fire station is anticipated to be accomplished through the imposition of impact fees on new developments within the City pursuant to City of Calimesa Municipal Code Chapter 18.115 (Development Impact Fees). Accordingly, the Project would not: a) substantially impair an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan; b) Due to slope, prevailing winds, and other factors, exacerbate wildfire risks, and thereby expose project occupants to, pollutant concentrations from a wildfire or the uncontrolled spread of a wildfire; c) require the installation or maintenance of associated infrastructure (such as roads, fuel breaks, emergency water sources, power lines or other utilities) that may exacerbate fire risk or that may result in temporary or ongoing impacts to the environment; d) expose people or structures to significant risks, including downslope or downstream flooding or landslides, as a result of runoƯ, post-fire slope instability, or drainage changes; or e) expose people or structures either directly or indirectly, to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving wildland fires.

Annexation Project Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8
the two existing warehouse buildings as required by (amended) Table 18.30.030 of the City of Calimesa Municipal Code. Under existing conditions, the Northern Annexation Area partially is developed with two existing occupied large industrial buildings measuring 1,012,760 s.f. and 811,000 s.f. in size, which previously were constructed pursuant to Riverside County approvals for GPA 534, CZ 7799, TPM 36564, and PPT 25337, along with an existing equestrian shade structure/stable and associated pasture that occurs along the northcentral boundary of the Northern Annexation Area and that is associated with an oƯ-site residential use to the north. Under existing conditions the Southern Annexation Area partially is developed with an existing wireless tower facility and a truck equipment and repair business (Bonafide Truck Equipment and Repair) previously entitled pursuant to PP16147 and CUP0322, respectively. Proposed ANNX-25-1, GPA-25-2, ZTA25-4, ZC-25-2, CUP-25-4, and CUP-25-5 would not allow for any new disturbance or development on site beyond the uses that already exist in the Annexation Area, and the proposed Project does not include applications for any new development. Rather, the Project comprises an administrative adjustment to the boundaries of the City of Calimesa and two CUPs to permit the two existing warehouse buildings, none of which would result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions. Accordingly, the proposed Project has no potential to result in environmental eƯects which will cause substantial adverse eƯects on human beings, either directly or indirectly, and no impact would occur.
2.2 Public Controversy
The City of Calimesa is aware that the proposed Project has generated public controversy, particularly with respect to the proposed annexation and pre-zoning of the Southern Annexation Area. However, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15064(f)(4), the existence of public controversy over the environmental eƯects of a project does not require preparation of an EIR if there is no substantial evidence in the record that the project may have a significant eƯect on the environment. Controversy alone, without substantial evidence of a significant environmental eƯect, does not constitute a basis for requiring an EIR. As demonstrated in the environmental analysis set forth in this Negative Declaration, the proposed Project consists of an administrative adjustment to the City of Calimesa's jurisdictional boundaries and associated land use entitlements for existing, previously entitled development. No new development is proposed as part of the Project. The analysis presented herein demonstrates that the Project would not result in any significant eƯect on the environment. Accordingly, consistent with Section 15064(f)(4), the public controversy surrounding the Project does not require preparation of an EIR.
2.3 Earlier Analysis
Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, an eƯect has been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration as per California Code of Regulations, § 15063(c)(3)(D). In this case, a brief discussion should identify the following:

Subject: Public Comment on Notice of Intent to Adopt a Negative Declaration – City of Calimesa Annexation Project – Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8, Annexation No. ANNX 25-1, General Plan Amendment No. 25-2, Zone Change (Pre-Zoning) No. ZC-25-2, Zoning Text Amendment No. ZTA-25-4, Conditional Use Permit No. 25-4, Conditional Use Permit No. 25-5 To Whom It May Concern:
The City of Beaumont appreciates the opportunity to provide comments on the City of Calimesa’s Notice of Intent to Adopt a Negative Declaration for the proposed annexation, zone change, general plan amendment, and conditional use permits for the proposed annexation of approximately 314.4 acres from the County of Riverside including the approximately 78.48-‑acre area commonly known as the “Golden Triangle.”
Beaumont offers no objection to the components of the project pertaining to the ongoing operations of the existing Shopoff site facilities and the proposed Northern Annexation Area. These facilities have long been contemplated as part of a coordinated regional vision, and there is no dispute in their continued functioning.
However, Beaumont must respectfully but firmly object to the proposed annexation of the Golden Triangle into the City of Calimesa. As noted in prior correspondence, Beaumont has already internally initiated annexation proceedings for this same area based on its direct proximity to Beaumont’s established infrastructure, service boundaries, and long-range planning efforts. Beaumont remains in the strongest and most efficient position to provide the full range of municipal services necessary to support future development of this strategically located‑ site.
The City of Beaumont has previously acknowledged the regional importance of the Golden Triangle and recognizes Calimesa’s interest in the area. Nevertheless, Beaumont maintains that annexing this land into its jurisdiction is the most logical and service efficient‑ outcome, ensuring cohesive infrastructure planning, public safety response, roadway connectivity, and alignment with existing service networks. Beaumont’s ability to effectively serve the area is supported by past collaborative outcomes, including the resolution of prior overlapping annexation interests in the Oak Valley and SCPGA Specific Plan area, which resulted in substantial mutual benefit to both cities and the region.
For these reasons, while Beaumont does not oppose the project elements related to the Northern Annexation Area, it strongly objects to the annexation component of the proposal and requests that the City of Calimesa refrain from pursuing annexation proceedings for the area identified in the draft negative declaration as the Southern Annexation Area, also known as the “Golden Triangle.”
City of Beaumont | 550 E. 6th Street, Beaumont, CA 92223 | (951) 769-8520 | BeaumontCA.gov Impacts of the Proposed Expansion of the Annexation Area The City of Beaumont respectfully submits the following comments regarding Calimesa’s proposed annexation areas, which extend beyond the guiding warehouses project boundaries and Northern Annexation Area identified in the Notice of Intent. Expanding the annexation footprint into additional areas presents several notable concerns related to water service governance, hydrology, land use consistency, and public service delivery.
Beaumont‑Cherry Valley Water District Sphere of Influence A significant portion of the expanded annexation area lies within the Beaumont‑Cherry Valley Water District’s (BCVWD) existing Sphere of Influence. Incorporating this territory into Calimesa would require substantial administrative, operational, and infrastructure adjustments for BCVWD, including modifications to existing water service standards, capital planning, and long‑term resource allocation.
These changes could disrupt the coordinated water supply and infrastructure planning already established for the region.
Hydrology and Water Quality Considerations
Modifying jurisdictional boundaries within an area that relies on interconnected groundwater management, drainage patterns, and water quality protection introduces additional complexity.
Shifting oversight to a different jurisdiction may require reevaluation of hydrological systems, stormwater infrastructure, and water quality responsibilities. These changes could affect regional drainage management and impose additional demands on existing water resource systems serving the area.
Land Use and Planning
From a land use perspective, the expansion of the annexation area beyond the NOI’s defined Northern Annexation Area boundaries results in less cohesive jurisdictional lines. A cleaner, more logical boundary configuration would be achieved if the approximately 78‑acre Southern Annexation Area portion of the project area were annexed to Beaumont, which maintains the most direct service adjacency and planning authority for that land. Beaumont’s existing infrastructure and adopted planning documents align more closely with the long‑term needs of this portion of the site, ensuring consistent development patterns and rational service delivery.
Public Services and Governance Efficiency
Jurisdictional boundaries that follow the existing street network are more efficient for the provision of public services, including public safety response, roadway maintenance, and utility coordination. The proposed expansion would create irregular boundary configurations that complicate emergency service routing, increase operational inefficiency, and disrupt the continuity of public service coverage.
Maintaining boundaries that align with established roadways and service lines ensures clarity for both residents and service providers.
Conclusion
For these reasons, the City of Beaumont encourages reconsideration of the expanded annexation area and recommends aligning the annexation boundaries with established service areas, infrastructure networks, and jurisdictional planning frameworks. Such an approach would support consistent land

BCVWD Comments on Notice of Intent to Adopt a Negative
Declaration - City of Calimesa Annexation Project - Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8, Annexation No. ANNX-25-1, General Plan Amendment No. GPA-25-2, Zone Change/Pre-Zoning No. ZC-25-2, Zone Text Amendment No. ZTA-25-4, Conditional Use Permit Nos.
CUP-25-4 and CUP-25-5
Dear Ms. Lucia and Honorable LAFCO Commissioners:
On behalf of the Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District ("BCVWD"), thank you for the opportunity to provide comments on the City of Calimesa's Notice of Intent to Adopt a Negative Declaration for the City of Calimesa Annexation Project. BCVWD submits this letter to ensure that the administrative record accurately reflects the District's existing Sphere of Influence, long-standing potable and non-potable water planning, and position regarding the parcels proposed for annexation.
BCVWD understands that the City of Calimesa's proposed annexation includes two distinct areas as set forth hereafter.
The first area (Area 1) consists of APNs 407-220-024, 407-220-026, 407- 220-028, and 407-220-029. These parcels are not currently within BCVWD's Sphere of Influence or Service Boundary. These parcels are located north of Cherry Valley Boulevard, bounded generally by the Interstate 10 freeway on the west, Cherry Valley Boulevard on the South, and by the Danny Thomas Ranch properties to the east BCVWD therefore takes no issue with the City of Calimesa's consideration of annexation of those parcels, provided that such annexation does not create, imply, or rely 1
upon any determination affecting BCVWD's existing Sphere of Influence, facilities, master planning, or service obligations elsewhere in the project area.
The second area (Area 2) consists of APNs 407-230-004, 407-230-006, 407-230-011, 407-230- 016, 407-230-017, 407-230-018, 407-230-020, 407-230-029, and 407-230-030. These parcels are located south of Cherry Valley Boulevard, bounded generally by the Interstate 10 freeway on the west and southwest, and by the Sunny-Cal Egg Ranch properties to the east, which are currently located within the City of Beaumont. These parcels are commonly understood as part of the "Golden Triangle" area.
BCVWD must respectfully but firmly object to the proposed annexation of these Area 2 southern parcels into the City of Calimesa. These parcels are within BCVWD's existing Sphere of Influence and service has been planned for by the District for many years. Any change to these service conditions would be considered an attempt by others (such as Yucaipa Valley Water District) to provide a duplication of service effort. These facts are central to the appropriate service-planning analysis and cannot be treated as incidental to the municipal annexation process. BCVWD's adopted Potable Water System Master Plan (2016) identifies infrastructure improvements intended to serve this area as development occurs.
BCVWD is well positioned to provide potable water and non-potable water service to the Area 2 southern parcels. The District's master planning identifies facilities in and along Cherry Valley Boulevard, including planned improvements capable of supporting future service to the area. The fact that the Area 2 parcels do not currently receive active BCVWD service should not be interpreted as a lack of District interest, lack of service capability, or lack of planning responsibility.
Several parcels remain undeveloped or self-serving under existing conditions; however, transition from existing self-service conditions to public water service is precisely the type of long-term planning and infrastructure coordination that BCVWD has undertaken for this area in support of orderly development, public health, fire protection, and regional water-resource management.
BCVWD further notes that many of these same issues were previously considered by Riverside LAFCO during the 1993 sphere of influence proceedings involving the "Golden Triangle" area under LAFCO 92-52-3. During those proceedings, substantial concerns were raised regarding fragmented jurisdictional boundaries, conflicting infrastructure planning, emergency-service coordination, and disruption of long-range utility and transportation planning associated with Cherry Valley Boulevard and Interstate 10. The historical record reflects that the area was recognized as closely tied to the Beaumont and Cherry Valley community from a transportation, utility-service, and community-of-interest perspective. Ultimately, LAFCO denied the City of Calimesa's request to include the Golden Triangle area within its sphere of influence under LAFCO 92-52-3. Those same planning and governance concerns remain relevant today.
BCVWD's position is also consistent with the City of Beaumont's stated interest in annexing the same southern parcels located within Area 2. The City of Beaumont has initiated proceedings to evaluate annexation of approximately 78.48 acres along Cherry Valley Boulevard, consisting of the same nine Area 2 parcels identified above. Annexation of these parcels into the City of Beaumont, with potable and non-potable water service provided by BCVWD, would create a logical and efficient jurisdictional and utility-service framework. Cherry Valley Boulevard would serve as a reasonable northern boundary, Interstate 10 would serve as a clear western and southern boundary, and the existing City of Beaumont boundary at the Sunny-Cal Egg Ranch properties would provide a logical eastern connection.
2
By contrast, annexation of the southern parcels into the City of Calimesa would create a less cohesive jurisdictional configuration and would disregard the existing utility-service planning framework already established through BCVWD's Sphere of Influence. Municipal boundary decisions should not undermine adopted water-service planning, nor should city annexation be used to predetermine or alter the appropriate water and non-potable water service provider for lands already within BCVWD's Sphere of Influence. Piecemeal annexation activity and overlapping jurisdictional claims could weaken coordinated regional planning, complicate longterm infrastructure and water-supply planning, and create fragmented service boundaries inconsistent with the orderly development principles historically applied by LAFCO.
BCVWD is also concerned that the Negative Declaration appears to rely on broad utility-service assumptions that are not accurate as applied to the southern parcels. To the extent the environmental document assumes that the entire Annexation Area is within Yucaipa Valley Water District's potable water service area, or that YVWD is the appropriate long-term provider for the southern parcels, that analysis should be corrected before the City takes action. For parcels within BCVWD's Sphere of Influence, the environmental and annexation record must recognize BCVWD's existing planning role and should not rely on another agency's water supply or service documents to support annexation findings for those parcels.
This issue is not merely administrative. The appropriate service provider for the southern parcels affects long-term water supply planning, non-potable water planning, pressure-zone planning, fire-flow capability, infrastructure phasing, capital-facility financing, interagency coordination, and regional governance efficiency. BCVWD has an established interest in ensuring that development in and around Cherry Valley Boulevard is served through a coherent and efficient public water system and has partially installed master-planned facilities necessary to serve areas below Cherry Valley Boulevard, inclusive of the Area 2 parcels. Fragmenting the area through an inconsistent municipal annexation would create unnecessary uncertainty and could impair coordinated infrastructure delivery.
BCVWD therefore requests that the City of Calimesa revise the project and the Negative Declaration to remove the southern parcels - APNs 407-230-004, 407-230-006, 407-230-011, 407-230-016, 407-230-017, 407-230-018, 407-230-020, 407-230-029, and 407-230-030 -from the proposed City of Calimesa annexation. BCVWD further requests that LAFCO consider the southern parcels in the context of Beaumont's annexation interest, BCVWD's existing Sphere of Influence, and the historical findings associated with LAFCO 92-52-3, with BCVWD retained as the potable and non-potable water service provider.
BCVWD also requests that the project record be revised to make the following points clear:
1. BCVWD takes no issue with Calimesa's consideration of annexation of APNs 407-220- 024, 407-220-026, 407-220-028, and 407-220-029, which are not currently within BCVWD's boundary or Sphere of Influence.
2. APNs 407-230-004, 407-230-006, 407-230-011, 407-230-016, 407-230-017, 407-230- 018, 407-230-020, 407-230-029, and 407-230-030 are within BCVWD's existing Sphere of Influence.
3. BCVWD is the appropriate agency to provide potable water and non-potable water service to the Area 2 southern parcels.
3
4. BCVWD has planned and partially completed infrastructure necessary to serve the area south of Cherry Valley Boulevard, including master-planned facilities within Cherry Valley Boulevard. Any change to these service conditions would be considered a duplication of service by the District.
5. Annexation of the southern parcels into the City of Beaumont, with BCVWD providing potable and non-potable water service, would result in a more logical and service-efficient boundary configuration.
6. The Negative Declaration should not assume YVWD service for parcels within BCVWD's Sphere of Influence.
7. Any future LAFCO action should evaluate municipal annexation separately from water and non-potable water service governance, and should preserve BCVWD's Sphere of Influence and service-planning role.
BCVWD is not opposed to orderly annexation, efficient municipal service delivery, or regional coordination. However, BCVWD is concerned about any efforts to provide duplication of service by others and must protect its existing Sphere of Influence, its adopted planning documents, its long-term infrastructure investments, and its ability to provide efficient potable and non-potable water service to lands that have been planned for service by the District.
For these reasons, BCVWD respectfully requests that the City of Calimesa refrain from pursuing annexation of the southern parcels and that LAFCO consider the southern parcels in coordination with the City of Beaumont and BCVWD. BCVWD further requests that this letter be included in the administrative record for the Negative Declaration, the annexation proceedings, and any subsequent LAFCO action related to this project.
BCVWD appreciates the opportunity to provide these comments and remains available to coordinate with the City of Calimesa, the City of Beaumont, Riverside LAFCO, Yucaipa Valley Water District, the County of Riverside, and the project applicant to ensure that municipal boundary decisions and water-service governance are addressed in a manner that is logical, efficient, and protective of the public interest.

Re: Comment on Negative Declaration, City of Calimesa Annexation Project (Environmental Assessment No. EA-25-8, Annexation No. ANNX-25-1, General Plan Amendment No. 25-2, Zone Change (Pre-Zoning) No. ZC25-2, Zone Text Amendment No. ZTA-25-4, Conditional Use Permit-25-4, Conditional Use Permit-25-5)
Dear Ms. Lucia:
This comment is submitted on behalf of Supporters Alliance For Environmental Responsibility (“SAFER”) regarding the Negative Declaration (“ND”) prepared for the City of Calimesa Annexation Project, which proposes the annexation of approximately 313.4 acres from the County of Riverside into the City of Calimesa, located east of Interstate 10 (I10) and Calimesa Boulevard, north of Brookside Avenue, north and south of Cherry Boulevard, and west of Fabian Lane, on APNs 407-220-(024, 026, 028, and 029) and 407- 230-(004, 006, 011, 016, 017, 018, 020 029, and 030) (“Project”).
Under the proposed Project, the Annexation Area’s General Plan Land Use designations would be updated to “LI – Light Industrial” on the approximately 138.7 acres within the Northern Annexation Area containing two existing warehouse buildings, “OS-R – Open Space Residential” on approximately 87.0 acres within the Northern Annexation Area, “CC – Community Commercial” on approximately 19.8 acres within the Southern Annexation Area, and “RE – Residential Estate” on approximately 58.5 acres within the Southern Annexation Area.
The ND does not analyze any environmental impacts associated with additional development within the Project area. Rather, it only states that “[n]o new development is proposed as part of the Project” (ND, p. 3) and that the Project would not “result in physical impacts to the environment beyond what already occurs under existing conditions” (ND, p. 16).
May 18, 2026
Comment on Negative Declaration, Calimesa Annexation Project
Because the ND does not analyze the potential environmental impacts associated with additional development, the City cannot rely on the ND for future CEQA review, and any new development within the Annexation Area must undergo new, project-specific CEQA review. To ensure that subsequent projects within the Specific Plan will in fact be subject to adequate environmental review, SAFER respectfully requests that the City adopt a binding condition of approval for the Specific Plan requiring that any and all subsequent projects will be subject to CEQA review and require a project-specific mitigated negative declaration or environmental impact report prior to approval.
Sincerely,
Victoria Yundt

Yucaipa Valley Water District has provided documentation that there are adequate provisions for water, sanitation, and public utilities and services to ensure that the proposed use would not be detrimental to public health and safety.
8. There will be adequate provisions for public access to serve the Subject Site. The existing warehouse building has already been developed on the Subject Site and already has adequate public access.
9. The proposed use is consistent with the general plan. As amended by GPA 25-2, the General Plan will allow warehouse buildings no larger than 1,100,000 square feet in size with approval of a CUP, and the Subject Site is already developed with an existing 811,000-square foot warehouse.
