East End Annexation: The East End Annexation area in not located within or near a wildfire State Responsibility Area, nor is the land classified as a VHFHSZ. No physical development is proposed on any property within the East End Annexation area except on the 3.59-acre Industrial Development Site, and the balance of the annexation area is already developed with industrial uses, local roads, and access to State highways. Therefore, the proposed annexation action would not impair an emergency response or evacuation plan.

Significance Conclusion: Based on the above discussion and analysis, the proposed project would not substantially impair an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan within a VHFHSZ. Impacts are less than significant and mitigation is not required. 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?
Less than Significant Impact
Discussion of Effect:
Industrial Development Site: As described above, the Industrial Development Site is not located within or near a wildfire State Responsibility Area, nor is the land classified as a VHFHSZ. The land on site and vicinity is relatively flat. Wildfires have the tendency for uncontrolled spread when the terrain is hilly or mountainous and not conducive to practicable firefighting capabilities. The likelihood of uncontrolled spread of a wildfire near or on the Industrial Development Site would be relatively low since the surrounding topography is relatively flat and substantially developed.
San Bernardino County and Chino are subject to seasonal wind events including times during the fall when Santa Ana Wind conditions are prevalent. Santa Ana Wind conditions in the area of the Industrial Development Site typically blow from a northeast to southwest direction (an offshore flow).
Wildfires have been recorded to occur in such Santa Ana Wind events sometimes leading to uncontrolled spread of wildfires. CAL FIRE and the San Bernardino County Fire Department have taken these conditions and the locations of Fire Hazard Severity Zones into consideration when determining potential impacts associated with wildfire spread within the City of Chino and surrounding cities. If such a conflagration240 driven by winds were to get out of control, the CVIFPD and San Bernardino County Fire Department have procedures in place to respond to such an emergency and evacuate residents and employees as needed.241 Additionally, the industrial development would be required to comply with the City’s Weed Abatement Program to reduce fire risk. 242 Wind events can also result in smoke drift from nearby wildfires resulting in smoke settling in lowlying areas. The City is located in a valley between the San Gabriel Mountains and the Chino Hills; as such, the potential for smoke settlement from nearby wildfires can be expected to occur. Such smoke settlement would be temporary and would more than likely clear out within a couple days of when settlement commenced (based on weather conditions).
East End Annexation: The East End Annexation area in not located within or near a wildfire State Responsibility Area, nor is the land classified as a VHFHSZ. The land within the annexation area and vicinity is primarily developed with industrial uses and is relatively flat. Future development within the annexation area would be subject to CEQA review and would be required to comply with the City’s 240 Conflagration is an extensive fire that destroys a great deal of land or property. 241 Chino Valley Fire District. 2018 Master Plan Update.

Significance Conclusion: Based on the discussion and analysis above, implementation of the proposed project would have a low probability of exposing occupants to pollutant concentrations from a wildfire or the uncontrolled spread of a wildfire due to slope or prevailing winds. Impacts would be less than significant. Mitigation is not required.
c. Require the installation or maintenance of associated infrastructure (such as roads, fuel breaks, emergency water sources, power lines or other utilities) that may result in temporary or ongoing impacts to the environment?
Less than Significant Impact
Discussion of Effect:
Industrial Development Site: As described above, the Industrial Development Site is not located within or near a wildfire State Responsibility Area, nor is the land classified as a VHFHSZ. The site plan includes development of three industrial warehouse buildings with office space, on-site utility infrastructure, surface parking lots, and off-site improvements to existing surrounding roads and utility infrastructure. The industrial development would not incorporate infrastructure (such as roads, fuel breaks, emergency water sources, power lines, or other non-existing utilities) that may exacerbate fire risk because all improvement would be implemented in an urbanized setting in accordance with the 2022 CBC, California Fire Code, and applicable local ordinances. Additionally, the project would reconfigure the existing utilities within the right-of-way dedication area by relocating them underground along Philadelphia Street and East End Avenue pursuant to City Municipal Code Section 13.32.030 (Requirement to underground utility devices), which would further reduce wildfire risk in the site vicinity.
East End Annexation: The East End Annexation area in not located within or near a wildfire State Responsibility Area, nor is the land classified as a VHFHSZ. The land within the annexation area and vicinity is primarily developed with industrial uses, roads, and utility infrastructure. Future development and improvements within the annexation area would be required to comply with the 2022 CBC, California Fire Code, and applicable local ordinances when site-specific development applications are submitted to the City for those properties.
Significance Conclusion: Based on the above discussion and analysis, the proposed project would not incorporate infrastructure (such as roads, fuel breaks, emergency water sources, power lines, or other non-existing utilities) that may exacerbate fire risk. Impacts would be less than significant, and mitigation is not required.
d. Expose people or structures to significant risks, including downslope or downstream flooding or landslides, as a result of runoff, post-fire slope instability, or drainage changes? Less than Significant Impact

According to the City’s Local Hazard Mitigation Plan, the Industrial Development Site is not located in flood hazard or inundation zones,243 and the site is not located near bodies of water or enclosed water storage features which could result in tsunamis or seiches. Therefore, risks associated with runoff caused by post-fire slope instability or post-fire drainage change are low.
The Industrial Development Site is located on land that is relatively flat, and the foothills of the Chino Hills are approximately 2.25 miles south of the site. Additionally, the land between the Industrial Development Site and the Chino Hills is developed with residential, commercial, and industrial uses.
The distance, slope, and intervening uses between the Industrial Development Site and the foothills of the Chino Hills precludes the site from significant risks due to landslides caused by post-fire slope instability or post-fire drainage changes.
East End Annexation: The East End Annexation is not located within or near a wildfire State Responsibility Area, nor is the land classified as a VHFHSZ. Similar to the Industrial Development Site discussed above, the annexation area is relatively flat and land between the annexation area and the foothills of the Chino Hills is developed with residential, commercial, and industrial uses. The distance, slope, and intervening uses between the annexation area and the foothills of the Chino Hills precludes the annexation area from significant risks due to landslides caused by post-fire slope instability or post-fire drainage changes. Additionally, future development within the 53.28-acre East End Annexation area would be subject to CEQA review to evaluate risks from landslides caused by postfire slope instability or post-fire drainage changes when site-specific development applications are submitted to the City for those properties.
Significance Conclusion: Based on the above discussion and analysis, the proposed project would not expose persons or structures to post-fire slope instability or post-fire drainage. Impacts would be less than significant, and mitigation is not required.

a. Have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory?
Less Than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated
Discussion of Effect:
Industrial Development Site: Implementation of Mitigation Measures CUL-1 and CUL-2, Mitigation Measures TCR-1 through TCR-3, and Mitigation Measure GEO-2 would ensure that potential impacts to historic, archaeological, tribal, and paleontological sources that could be uncovered during construction activities would be reduced to less than significant levels. Implementation of Mitigation Measures BIO-1 would ensure that potential impacts to nesting birds are reduced to a less than significant level. Therefore, with the incorporation of mitigation measures, development of the Industrial Development Site would not: (1) degrade the quality of the environment; (2) substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species; (3) cause a fish or wildlife species population to drop below self-sustaining levels; (4) threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community; (5) reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal; or (6) eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history.

No change in physical baseline conditions would occur within the remaining 53.28 acres of the annexation area as a result of the project.
There would be no potential for physical environmental effects or reasonably foreseeable indirect environmental effects to the remaining 53.28 acres of surrounding properties under the proposed annexation action. Future development of any property within the remaining 53.28 acres of the annexation area would be subject to CEQA review and compliance with all applicable regulations pertaining to biological, cultural, and paleontological resources.
Significance Conclusion: With implementation of Mitigation Measures CUL-1 and CUL-2, Mitigation Measures TCR-1 through TCR-3, Mitigation Measure GEO-2, and Mitigation Measures BIO-1, the project would not have the potential to substantially degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, substantially reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory. This impact would be less than significant with mitigation incorporated. b. Have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? (“Cumulatively considerable” means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects.)
Less Than Significant Impact
Discussion of Effect:
Industrial Development Site: As presented in the discussion of environmental checklist Sections 3.1 through 3.20, development of the Industrial Development Site would have no impact, a less than significant impact, or a less than significant impact after mitigation with respect to all environmental issues.
The Industrial Development Site has a San Bernardino County zoning designation of Single-Family Residential (RS-20M) but is within the City of Chino Sphere of Influence and has a land use designation of Light Industrial per the Chino General Plan.244 Accordingly, the project would include a zone change of the Industrial Development Site from Single-Family Residential (RS-20M) to Light Industrial (M1) as a municipal exercise to achieve consistency of land use development in accordance with the City of Chino’s existing General Plan Light Industrial land use designation of the site (refer to Table 2.2.A:
Existing and Proposed Zoning). Because the proposed development of the Industrial Development Site is consistent with the City’s General Plan land use designation for the property, it is also consistent with growth projections of the City and therefore would not directly or indirectly induce unplanned growth in the City. Additionally, the Industrial Development Site is located within an urbanized area 244 City of Chino. General Plan 2025. Land Use Element. Figure LU-2 General Plan Land Use Designations. July 2010. https://cityofchino.org/DocumentCenter/View/415/Chino-General-Plan---04-Land-Use-PDF (accessed April 13, 2022). 397
IN I T I A L S T U D Y / M I T I G A T E D NE G A T I V E DE C L A R A T I O N J U N E 2 0 2 3 PH I L A D E L P H I A S T R E E T IN D U S T R I A L D E V E L O P M E N T S I T E A N D EA S T EN D A N N E X A T I O N P R O J E C T CI T Y O F C H I N O, SA N B E R N A R D I N O CO U N T Y , CA L I F O R N I A P:\GMS2201_Chino Industrial IS-MND\Initial Study\Public Review Draft\2nd Public Review Draft\IS-MND_Philadelphia Street Industrial Project.docx (06/26/23) 3-165 and would be connected to existing municipal roadways and adequate utility infrastructure.
Accordingly, the Industrial Development Site is designed to integrate within the City’s and region’s existing and proposed infrastructure framework, and cumulative overburdening of community infrastructure and service capacity is not expected to occur. Impacts specified throughout this Initial Study are considered project-specific in nature due to the limited scope of direct physical impacts to the environment.
East End Annexation: Annexation from San Bernardino County to City of Chino jurisdiction includes the entire 56.87-acre East End Annexation area, which includes the 3.59-acre Industrial Development Site, as determined by the San Bernardino County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) to create logical boundaries that improve services therein and to create clear jurisdictional responsibilities (refer to Figure 2). Similar to the 3.59-acre Industrial Development Site, the additional
53.28 acres of surrounding properties would include a zone change from San Bernardino County zoning designations Regional Industrial (IR), Community Industrial (IC), and Single-Family Residential (RS-20M) to City of Chino zoning designation Light Industrial (M1) and General Industrial (M2) (refer to Table 2.2.A: Existing and Proposed Zoning).
The Chino General Plan designation for the overall annexation area already is Light Industrial (LI) and General Industrial (GI). No physical development is proposed on any property within the East End Annexation area except on the 3.59-acre Industrial Development Site, and the balance of the annexation area is already developed primarily with industrial uses. Therefore, there would be no potential for physical environmental effects or reasonably foreseeable indirect environmental effects to the remaining 53.28 acres of surrounding properties under the proposed annexation action. Future development of any property within the remaining 53.28 acres of the annexation area would be subject to CEQA review when site-specific development applications are submitted to the City for those properties.
Significance Conclusion: The project in conjunction with other cumulative projects would result in a less than significant cumulative impact with respect to all environmental issues. Mitigation is not required.
c. Have environmental effects that will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly?
Less Than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated
Discussion of Effect:
Industrial Development Site: In general, impacts to human beings are associated with air quality, geology and soils, hazards and hazardous materials, hydrology and water quality, and noise. The South Coast Air Basin is currently designated as a non-attainment area for ozone, PM10, and PM2.5. Development of the Industrial Development Site would not contribute significant amounts of air pollutant emissions on either a short-term or long-term basis. Adherence to SCAQMD dust control measures would further reduce short-term construction air quality impacts, and no site-specific mitigation is required.

These regulations and conditions require implementation of the recommendations cited in the project-specific Geotechnical Investigation pursuant to the City Municipal Code.
Demolition of the existing structure on the Industrial Development Site must occur in accordance with Mitigation Measures HAZ-1 through HAZ-3, which would ensure any lead or asbestos present would be abated in accordance with applicable regulatory guidelines prior to demolition. Furthermore, any hazardous materials utilized during construction and operation of the Industrial Development Site would be regulated by the CVIFPD and Cal/OSHA. Additionally, the routine transport, use, and disposal of hazardous materials at the site during construction and operation would be performed in accordance with the requirements of CCR Title 8, which would minimize potential health hazards for construction workers, landscapers, maintenance personnel, and residents.
Compliance with construction- and operation-phase storm water requirements, as set forth in Standard Conditions HYD-1 and HYD-2, would ensure post-development storm water runoff volume would not exceed the existing, pre-developed condition. Therefore, development of the Industrial Development Site would not result in substantial erosion or siltation on or off site; substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a manner that would result in flooding on or off site, or create or contribute runoff water that would exceed the capacity of existing or planned storm water drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoff.
With implementation of Mitigation Measure NOI-1, erection of temporary construction barriers would reduce noise levels to at or below the City’s construction noise standard of 70 dBA equivalent continuous sound level (Leq) at the off-site residential properties in proximity to the Industrial Development Site. Furthermore, implementation of Mitigation Measure NOI-2 would ensure potential vibration generated by construction activities would not result in building damage.
East End Annexation: No physical development is proposed on any property within the East End Annexation area except on the 3.59-acre Industrial Development Site, and the balance of the annexation area is already developed primarily with industrial uses. No change in physical baseline conditions would occur within the remaining 53.28 acres of the annexation area as a result of the project.
There would be no potential for physical environmental effects or reasonably foreseeable indirect environmental effects to the remaining 53.28 acres of surrounding properties under the proposed annexation action. Future development of any property within the remaining 53.28 acres of the annexation area would be subject to CEQA review and compliance with all applicable regulations, including the NFIP Reform Act, NFIP Section 60.3, and California Civil Code Section 1103, to ensure floodplain management pursuant to federal and State law and also ensure future development or redevelopment along the San Antonio Channel would not impede or redirect flood flows.
Significance Conclusion: With implementation of Mitigation Measure GEO-1, Mitigation Measures HAZ-1 through HAZ-3, Standard Conditions HYD-1 and HYD-2, and Mitigation measures NOI-1 and NOI-2, potential impacts on human beings would be less than significant with mitigation incorporated. 399

RESOLUTION NO. PC2023-022
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
CHINO, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING THE CITY COUNCIL
APPROVE PL20-0003 (PREZONE/ANNEXATION), A PREZONE OF
56.87 ACRES OF LAND TO LIGHT INDUSTRIAL (M1) AND GENERAL INDUSTRIAL (M2) FOR PARCELS GENERALLY LOCATED SOUTH
OF FRANCIS AVENUE, WEST OF EAST END AVENUE, NORTH OF
PHILADELPHIA STREET, AND A SMALL PORTION SOUTH OF
PHILADELPHIA STREET WITHIN THE CITY OF CHINO SPHERE OF
INFLUENCE (APNS: 1013-261-17, 1013-271-01, -10, -11, -06, -13, -14, 1013-521-04, -05, -11, -14, -15, -16, -18, 1013-531-04, -07, 1016-011- 02, -03, -05, -06, -08, -09, -10, & -15).
WHEREAS, the proposed project consists of a prezone and annexation of 56.87 acres of land generally located south of Francis Avenue, west of East End Avenue, north of Philadelphia Street, and a small portion south of Philadelphia Street (APNs: 1013-261- 17, 1013-271-01, -10, -11, -06, -13, -14, 1013-521-04, -05, -11, -14, -15, -16, -18, 1013- 531-04, -07, 1016-011-02, -03, -05, -06, -08, -09, -10, & -15) as fully described in Exhibits (the Project ); and
WHEREAS, the City of Chino has initiated the prezone of property concurrently with its review of the related annexation in compliance with State law and the requirements of the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO); and WHEREAS, a description for the annexation boundaries of the territory is set forth and the proposed prezone attached hereto and by this
reference incorporated herein; and
WHEREAS, a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) has been prepared that concludes the proposed project will not have a significant adverse effect on the environment. Potentially significant effects were identified, and mitigation measures have been incorporated to ensure the effects remain at less than significant levels. The MND satisfies the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the CEQA Guidelines (California Public Resources Code §§21000 et seq.; 14 Cal. Code Regs. §§ 15000 et seq.); and
WHEREAS, the proposed prezone is required at this time by the LAFCO, and state law, because of the proposed annexation of the properties; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Chino has completed its study of the proposed Prezone/Annexation; and
WHEREAS, on July 19, 2023 the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing for the Project in compliance with law, including compliance with the relevant 419
RESOLUTION NO. PC2023-022
provisions of the California Government Code and Chino Municipal Code, entertained the written and oral report of staff, and took public testimony on the Project; and NOW, THEREFORE, the Planning Commission of the City of Chino, California, does hereby FIND, DETERMINE, and RESOLVE as follows:
A. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein.
B. Based on substantial evidence, both written and oral, from the public hearing, the Planning Commission makes the following findings and takes the following actions on PL20-0003 (Prezone/Annexation):
1. PL20-0003 (Prezone/Annexation)
a. The proposed prezone is consistent with the goals and policies of the Chino General Plan as the land use element of the General Plan identifies Goal LU-4 providing a clear transition for properties within the Sphere of Influence (SOI). A neighborhood meeting was held to provide property owners, residents, business owners and tenants with information on the annexation process and to answer questions on the differences and similarities between regulations and services between San Bernardino County (County) and City of Chino. The proposed prezone of the properties will be consistent with the General Plan designations of the property within the annexation area that are currently designated as Light Industrial (LI) and General Industrial (GI);
b. The proposed prezone is reasonable and beneficial, and in the interest of good zoning practice as the General Plan designation of the property within the annexation area are currently designated as Light Industrial (LI) and General Industrial (GI). Upon annexation to the City of Chino, the zoning designations of Light Industrial (M1) and General Industrial (M2) will be required by State planning, zoning, and development law; c. The proposed prezone will not have a significant adverse impact on the environment as a MND has been prepared that concludes the Project will not have a significant adverse effect on the environment. Potentially significant effects were identified and mitigation measures have been incorporated to ensure the effects remain at less than significant levels. The MND satisfies the requirements of CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines (California Public Resources Code, Section 21000 et seq.;14 CCR 15000 et seq.);
d. The change will not adversely affect the harmonious relationship with adjacent parcels and land uses as the surrounding properties to the north, south and west are all designated for industrial uses, developed with a range of industrial uses, and are consistent with the proposed M1 and M2 zoning. In addition, the proposed industrial development at the northwest 420
RESOLUTION NO. PC2023-022
corner of Philadelphia Street and East End Avenue is zoned M1 and intended to accommodate a less intense industrial user. The three industrial buildings were designed to a scale and mass that is compatible with the adjacent residential properties to the east, across East End Avenue and consistent with the requirements of the M1 zoning district. The prezone of properties to M1 and M2 will be in harmony with the surrounding parcels and land uses;
e. The subject site is physically suitable, including but not limited to parcel size, shape, access, availability of utilities, and compatibility with adjoining land uses, for the M1 and M2 prezone designations, as there no proposed land use changes and only one proposed industrial development within the annexation area in which the site is designated for industrial. The industrial development will have adequate access, in that all minimum zoning requirements governing parcel size, shape, access, type and intensity of development, as all minimum development standards related to setbacks, building height, lot coverage, parking and landscaping have been met or exceeded and the appropriate infrastructure and public improvements are conditioned to be constructed as part of the development.
2. CEQA Findings. A MND has been prepared that concludes the proposed Project will not have a significant adverse effect on the environment. Potentially significant effects were identified, and mitigation measures have been incorporated to ensure the effects remain at less than significant levels. The MND satisfies the requirements of CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines (California Public Resources Code §§21000 et seq.; 14 Cal. Code Regs. §§ 15000 et seq.); and
3. Recommendation of Approval of PL20-0003 (Prezone/Annexation). The Planning Commission hereby recommends the City Council approve PL20- 0003 (Prezone/Annexation); and
4. Actions by the Planning Commission Secretary. The Planning Commission Secretary is hereby directed to attest as to the adoption of this Resolution as of the date set forth below and forthwith transmit a copy of this Resolution, by regular mail, to the Applicant at the address of record set forth in the Application.
APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 19TH DAY OF JULY 2023.

1. PL20-0004 (Site Approval)
a.
adopted General Plan and/or applicable specific plan(s). The Project site has a General Plan land use designation of Light Industrial (LI). The LI land use designation is intended to provide for industrial or manufacturing uses with fewer impacts on traffic, noises, odors and pollutants than General Industrial. The proposed buildings have been designed to accommodate lighter industrial uses in accordance with the Goals and Policies of the 429
RESOLUTION NO. PC2023-023
General Plan. The Project serves General Plan Goal LU-2 and Objective LU-2.1, which aims to foster the development of new industrial uses in the City while preventing negative impacts on the health, safety, and welfare of residents;
b. The proposed Project is permitted within the zoning district in which it is Code. Upon Annexation to the City , the Project site will have a zoning designation of M1 (Light Industrial). The development of the Project site includes three industrial buildings, totaling 63,900 square feet, which is consistent with the Light Industrial (M1) zoning district, and no special approvals are required for the use. The Project meets or exceeds all development standards related to setbacks, building height, lot coverage, parking and landscaping;
c. The subject site is physically suitable, including, but not limited to, parcel size, shape, access and availability of utilities, for the type and intensity of development proposed, in that all minimum development standards related to setbacks, building height, lot coverage, parking and landscaping have been met or exceeded and the appropriate infrastructure and public improvements are conditioned to be constructed as part of the development;
d. The subject site relates to streets and highways properly designed, both as to width and type of pavement to carry the type and quantity of traffic generated by the Project, in that the necessary street and roadway improvements for East End Avenue and Philadelphia Street are required to be improved as part of the development. Additionally, East End Avenue is designated as a truck route;
e. The proposed Project is compatible with those abutting properties and in the surrounding neighborhood, as the Project site is located in the M1 zoning district. Properties located to the north, south and west are all designated for industrial uses. In addition, the M1 zoning district is intended to accommodate a less intense industrial user. The three industrial buildings were designed to a scale and mass that is compatible with the adjacent residential properties to the east, across East End Avenue and consistent with the requirements of the M1 zoning district;
f. The proposed location, size, and operating characteristics of the proposed Project will not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety or general welfare. The Project is both consistent and compatible with all surrounding land uses. Conditions of Approval will also be imposed on the Project to ensure no detrimental impacts to the public health, safety, and general welfare;
430
RESOLUTION NO. PC2023-023
g. The proposed Project will not have a significant adverse impact on the environment, as a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) has been prepared that concludes the Project will not have a significant adverse effect on the environment. Potentially significant effects were identified and mitigation measures have been incorporated to ensure the effects remain at less than significant levels. The MND satisfies the requirements of CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines (California Public Resources Code, Section 21000 et seq.;14 CCR 15000 et seq.); and
h. The minimum safeguards necessary to protect the public health, safety and general welfare have been required of the proposed Project through Project design features and conditions of approval imposed on the Project.
2. PL20-0005 (Tentative Parcel Map No. 20174)
a. Consistency with plans. The proposed subdivision, together with the provisions for its design and improvements, is consistent with the General Plan, which designates the property as LI. This designation allows for a wide variety of industrial uses with fewer impacts on traffic, noises, odors and pollutants than General Industrial;
b. Consistency with zoning. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the provisions of the Chino Zoning Ordinance. Upon Annexation to the City, the Project site will have a zoning designation of M1 (Light Industrial) and the map complies with all the requirements of the M1 zoning district; c. Suitability. The site is physically suitable for the type or density of development, as all required on and off-site improvements necessary to accommodate the development will be provided in accordance with City requirements; the site is flat and does not have any development constraints that would hinder future development; and the parcels being created are sufficient size and dimension to accommodate the development in accordance with the requirements of the Chino Zoning Ordinance; d. Environmental damage. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements will not cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. The Philadelphia Street Industrial Development Site and East End Annexation Project MND has been prepared for the proposed subdivision. The MND has determined that the proposed subdivision and improvements will not cause substantial environmental damage with the incorporation of mitigation measures;
e. Wastewater. The discharge of waste from the proposed subdivision into a community sewer system will not result in violation of existing requirements 431
RESOLUTION NO. PC2023-023
prescribed by a California Regional Water Quality Control Board pursuant to Division 7 (commencing with Section 13000 of the Water Code); f. Water service. The review of the City Engineer or water service agency indicates that there is sufficient water to provide for tenants of the subdivision. The MND considered the capacity of existing water system and found it adequate;
g. Soils and geology. There are no adverse soil or geological conditions, according to a soils report provided with the Philadelphia Street Industrial Development Site and East End Annexation Project MND which was required as part of the environmental review;
h. Public health. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not cause serious public health problems, as full public improvements will be provided and will also be designed and constructed in conformance with City standards as well as applicable state and federal regulations; i. Easements. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision. Covenants, Codes, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) are required to be recorded with the final map and will include provisions for a reciprocal agreement to assure maintenance of all common areas, including landscaping, site access points and off-street parking areas, and to assure common ingress and egress between parcels;
j. Environmental documentation. The environmental documentation is adequate and conforms to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The Philadelphia Street Industrial Development Site and East End Annexation Project MND has been prepared for the Project and reviewed by the Planning Commission in accordance with CEQA. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the Project described in the MND, and all mitigation measures from the MND are incorporated as conditions of approval for the Project; and
k. Agricultural suitability. The proposed subdivision will not result in the subdivision of agricultural parcels to a size too small to sustain agricultural use under the conditions for denial listed in Section 66474.4 of the Subdivision Map Act.
3. CEQA Findings. A MND has been prepared that concludes the proposed Project will not have a significant adverse effect on the environment. Potentially significant effects were identified, and mitigation measures have been incorporated to ensure the effects remain at less than significant levels. The 432
RESOLUTION NO. PC2023-023
MND satisfies the requirements of CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines (California Public Resources Code, Section 21000 et seq.;14 CCR 15000 et seq.); and
4. Conditional Approval of PL20-0004 (Site Approval) and PL20-0005 (Tentative Parcel Map No. 20174). Based on the aforementioned findings, the Planning Commission hereby approves PL20-0004 (Site Approval) and PL20-0005 (Tentative Parcel Map No. 20174) subject to the conditions of approval attached hereto as E B , and contingent on the following:

Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program 1
This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program has been prepared for use in implementing mitigation for the:
Philadelphia Street Industrial Development Site and East End Annexation Project Prezone and Annexation (PL 20-0003), Site Approval (PL 20-0004), and Tentative Parcel Map No. 20174 (PL 20-0005)
The program has been prepared in compliance with State law and the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) prepared for the project by the City of Chino (City).
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires adoption of a reporting or monitoring program for those measures placed on a project to mitigate or avoid significant effects on the environment (Public Resource Code Section 21081.6). The law states the reporting or monitoring program shall be designed to ensure compliance during project implementation.
The monitoring program contains the following elements:
1) The mitigation measures are recorded with the action and procedure necessary to ensure compliance. In some instances, one action may be used to verify implementation of several mitigation measures.
2) A procedure for compliance and verification has been outlined for each action necessary. This procedure designates who will take action, what action will be taken and when, and to whom and when compliance will be reported.
3) The program has been designed to be flexible. As monitoring progresses, changes to compliance procedures may be necessary based upon recommendations by those responsible for the program. As changes are made, new monitoring compliance procedures and records will be developed and incorporated into the program.
This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program includes mitigation identified in the MND.
MITIGATION MONITORING AND RESPONSIBILITIES
As the Lead Agency, the City is responsible for ensuring full compliance with the mitigation measures adopted for the proposed project. The City will monitor and report on all mitigation activities.
Mitigation measures will be implemented at different stages of development throughout the project site. In this regard, the responsibilities for implementation have been assigned to the Applicant, Contractor, or a combination thereof. If, during the course of project implementation, any of the mitigation measures identified herein cannot be successfully implemented, the City shall be immediately informed, and the City will then inform any affected responsible agencies. The City, in conjunction with any affected responsible agencies, will then determine if modification to the project is required and/or whether alternative mitigation is appropriate.
STANDARD CONDITIONS
Standard Conditions are presented in instances where the proposed project would not create a significant impact but would be required to adhere to regulatory requirements in order to ensure impacts do not become significant. Standard Conditions outline compliance with various federal, State, and/or local acts, laws, rules, regulations, municipal codes, policies, etc. 455

CHINO EAST END ANNEXATION AREA (EEAA) AND PHILADELPHIA STREET INDUSTRIAL CENTER (PSIC) DEVELOPMENT: PLAN FOR SERVICE AND FISCAL ANALYSIS
The Natelson Dale Group Inc.
1 Executive Summary
This report presents the plan for service and fiscal analysis of the proposed annexation of the East End Annexation Area (EEAA), including the 3.2-acre Philadelphia Street Industrial Center (PSIC) development, into the City of Chino. Whereas a specific development project is currently proposed for the PSIC, potential development within other portions of the EEAA is unknown at this time. However, since the City will require annexation of the overall EEAA as a single “project” for LAFCo purposes, this analysis evaluates the potential fiscal impacts of the specific land uses proposed for the PSIC and an assumed land use mix for the balance of the EEAA. In this regard, the analysis does not assume full buildout of the EEAA but considers estimated development within the 5-year forecast horizon required for LAFCo fiscal studies. Chapter 2 details the study’s land use assumptions.
In keeping with the LAFCo guidelines for reports of this type, the cost and revenue categories included reflect those associated with municipal revenues and functions that would be absorbed by the City upon annexation of the Project. For the City’s budget, this includes the categories listed below.
General Fund and Relevant Other Accounts, Annual Recurring Revenues Property Taxes
VLF-Property Tax in Lieu
Property Transfer Tax
Off-Site Retail Sales and Use Tax
Proposition 172 Half Cent Sales Tax
Measure I 2010-2040 Half Cent Sales Tax
Franchise Fees
Transfers In: State Gas Tax
Transfers In: From Other City Funds
General Fund and Relevant Other Accounts, Annual Recurring Costs General Government
Police Protection
Community Services
Community Development
Public Works: Street Maintenance
Public Works: Other Costs
Property Tax Scenarios Considered in this Analysis
Consistent with the City’s current discussions with LAFCo, this analysis considers two scenarios regarding the share of the 1% property tax levy that would accrue to the City’s General Fund:
• “Half Share” Property Tax Scenario – assumes 5.4% of the 1% property tax levy accrues to City’s General Fund
• “Full Share” Property Tax Scenario – assumes 10.8% of the 1% property tax levy accrues to City’s General Fund

2 Summary Conclusion
A summation of the annexation area’s projected annual recurring revenues and costs, for the categories listed above, is shown on Table E-1 below. Based on the conservative revenue assumptions used in this analysis (as described further below), the annexation area would:
• Generate a small fiscal deficit ($2,200 per year) to the City under the “half share” property tax scenario; and
• Generate a fiscal surplus of $22,600 per year under the “full share” property tax scenario.
Under more favorable revenue assumptions (see discussion of potential sales tax revenues below), the annexation area would potentially generate a significantly larger annual surplus for the City (even under the “half share” property tax scenario).

Total Recurring Costs $49,024 $49,024
Annual Recurring Surplus/Deficit -$2,183 $22,641

Whereas most revenue sources associated with the project are reasonably predictable based on standard development assumptions, one key revenue item – sales tax – can vary widely for industrial buildings based on the specific tenant type(s) occupying the space. Some industrial businesses generate substantial sales tax revenue (due to “point of sale” business activities) while some industrial tenants generate little or no sales tax. Based on available data, The Natelson Dale Group, Inc. (TNDG) estimates that existing industrial space in the combined Chino/Chino Hills area generates average taxable sales of $32.20 per square foot of building area.1
Given that specific tenants are not currently known for the PSIC or the overall EEAA, it is reasonable to expect that the tenant mix (and therefore the level of sales tax generation) for project would mirror the overall makeup of Chino’s industrial market. However, in order to remain analytically conservative (per direction from City staff), the fiscal analysis assumes that no sales tax revenue would be generated by the proposed project.
Based on estimated industrial sales tax generation in other Inland Empire cities, TNDG believes that it is highly likely that the proposed project would generate significant taxable sales. TNDG estimates industrial 1 This factor was derived from two sources: 1) total taxable sales during Calendar Year 2021 in the “All Other Outlets” (i.e., non-retail) sales category as reported by the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration and 2) total square feet of industrial buildings in Chino/Chino Hills as reported by Kidder Matthews (Q2 2022 industrial “Market Trends” report for the Inland Empire). Specifically, total taxable sales of $1,758,858,921 divided by a total industrial inventory of 54,627,425 square feet equals average taxable sales of $32.20 per square foot. 518

3 taxable sales PSF in other key Inland Empire sub-markets as follows2 : Corona ($53.24), Fontana ($14.19),
Jurupa Valley ($20.33), Moreno Valley ($8.83), Ontario ($32.38), Perris ($9.12), Rancho Cucamonga ($21.51), Redlands ($7.08), Rialto ($40.77), Riverside ($32.55), and San Bernardino ($16.86). The weighted average for these 12 sub-markets is $25.11 per square foot.
As indicated by the above data, the potential exists for the project to substantially outperform the conservative “no sales tax” assumption used in this analysis. For example, if the project achieved taxable sales equivalent to the existing average for the 12 sub-markets noted above ($25.11 PSF), the project would generate a net fiscal surplus for the City of $41,600 per year under the half-share property tax scenario and $66,400 per year under the full-share property tax scenario. If the project achieved taxable sales equivalent to the existing average for the Chino/Chino Hills area ($32.20 PSF), the project would generate a net fiscal surplus for the City of $53,900 per year under the half-share property tax scenario and $78,800 per year under the full-share property tax scenario. Table E-2 below compares the net fiscal impact of the project under the various property and sales tax scenarios considered in this analysis.

4 Chapter 1: Introduction
This report presents the plan for service and fiscal analysis of the proposed annexation of the East End Annexation Area (EEAA), including the Philadelphia Street Industrial Center (PSIC) development, into the City of Chino. The overall EEAA totals approximately 46.48 acres in the County of San Bernardino unincorporated area, adjacent to the city of Chino boundary and within the city’s sphere of influence. The PSIC site totals 3.2 acres and is a part of the larger EEAA. The PSIC property consists of mostly vacant land with an existing single-family residential structure (see Figure 1). The Project developer for the PSIC proposes to construct 60,000 square feet of industrial space on the property.
Purpose of the study
The Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo) for San Bernardino County requires a Plan For Service and Fiscal Impact Analysis (Analysis) be prepared when a jurisdiction is affected by a proposed change such as the annexation proposed for this Project. According to the San Bernardino LAFCO Policy and Procedure Manual (2020), the Analysis needs to address:
A. A description of the level and range of each service to be provided to the affected territory.
B. An indication of when the service can be feasibly extended to the affected territory.
C. An identification of any improvement or upgrading of structures, roads, water or sewer facilities, other infrastructure, or other conditions the affected agency would impose upon the affected territory.
D. The Plan shall include a Fiscal Impact Analysis which shows the estimated cost of extending the service and a description of how the service or required improvements will be financed. The Fiscal Impact Analysis shall provide, at a minimum, a five (5)-year projection of revenues and expenditures. A narrative discussion of the sufficiency of revenues for anticipated service extensions and operations is required.
E. An indication of whether the annexing territory is, or will be, proposed for inclusion within an existing or proposed improvement zone/district, redevelopment area, assessment district, or community facilities district [does not apply to this analysis].
F. If retail water service is to be provided through this change, provide a description of the timely availability of water for projected needs within the area based upon factors identified in Government Code Section 65352.5 (as required by Government Code Section 56668(k)).
In keeping with the LAFCo guidelines, the cost and revenue categories included in this report reflect costs and revenues associated with municipal functions that would be absorbed by the City upon annexation of the Project. Within the City’s budget, this includes amounts for a broad range of General Fund-related activities plus specific functions associated with, primarily, the Public Works Department. The intent is to align cost categories with corresponding revenue sources, tabulating the effects on each due to the annexation. Additional discussion pertaining to the conceptual basis for the figures used in the analysis is provided in table footnotes.
Figures 1-1 and 1-2 below show Chino and the annexation area, respectively. 520

8 Chapter 2: Project Description
Planned Improvements
Within the PSIC portion of the EEAA, the Developer proposes to construct 60,000 square feet of industrial space on a 3.2-acre site. Whereas a specific development project is currently proposed for the PSIC, potential development for the balance of the EEAA is unknown at this time. However, since the City will require annexation of the overall EEAA as a single “project” for LAFCo purposes, this analysis evaluates the potential fiscal impacts of the specific land uses proposed for the PSIC and an assumed land use mix for the balance of the EEAA. In this regard, the analysis assumes that an additional 100,000 square feet of industrial space (i.e., over and above the PSIC Project) would be developed within the 5-year forecast horizon required by LAFCo. Thus, the analysis considers total EEAA development (including the PSIC) of 160,000 square feet of industrial space. See Table 2-1 for the assumed phasing of this development.

The indicated numbers of employees reflect an assumed employment density of one job per 1,500 square feet of industrial space. The “service population” numbers assume that on “daytime” employee is equivalent to 50% of a full-time City resident in terms of demand on public services. 524

9 Table 2-2 below provides a summary of the public streets that would become the City’s maintenance responsibility upon annexation of the EEAA. The City-maintained streets would include existing streets currently maintained by the County, as well some additional lanes that would be developed at some future date. Per City staff, the new lanes would mostly likely be developed after the five-year timeframe for this analysis. However, in order to fully account for this potential cost, the analysis assumes that the new lanes would be operational by Year 5. The analysis assumes that any new internal streets (i.e., developed within individual business parks) would be privately maintained.

14 Chapter 4: City of Chino Fiscal Analysis Assumptions The general approach to conducting the fiscal impact assessment includes the following steps:
1. Establishing baseline population, employment, and similar conditions that apply to the annexing city, including a determination of appropriate city “service populations,” in this case a combination of residents and workers.
2. Compiling data on costs and revenues for relevant categories of city services from budget documents.
3. Determining and applying methods for projecting these costs and revenues within a process appropriate for the analysis of the Project-specific fiscal impacts.
The application of these three steps to this analysis is addressed in the rest of this chapter.
Baseline Population and Employment
Population and employment figures applied to this analysis are shown on Table 4-1. Notes accompanying the table describe the data sources and rationale applied to deriving the relevant figures. 530

19 Chapter 5: Fiscal Impacts of Annexation Area
A summation of the annexation area’s projected annual recurring revenues and costs, for the categories listed above, is shown on Table 5-1 below. Based on the conservative revenue assumptions used in this analysis (as described further below), the annexation area would:
• Generate a small fiscal deficit ($2,200 per year) to the City under the “half share” property tax scenario; and
• Generate a fiscal surplus of $22,600 per year under the “full share” property tax scenario.
Under more favorable revenue assumptions (see discussion of potential sales tax revenues below), the annexation area would potentially generate a significantly larger annual surplus for the City (even under the “half share” property tax scenario).
TABLE 5-1. SUMMARY OF ANNUAL FISCAL IMPACTS AT BUILDOUT Annual Impact at Buildout
Property Tax Scenario
Half Share Full Share
Total Recurring Revenues $46,842 $71,665
Total Recurring Costs $49,024 $49,024
Annual Recurring Surplus/Deficit -$2,183 $22,641
Source: Table 5-3a and Table 5-3b.
Whereas most revenue sources associated with the project are reasonably predictable based on standard development assumptions, one key revenue item – sales tax – can vary widely for industrial buildings based on the specific tenant type(s) occupying the space. Some industrial businesses generate substantial sales tax revenue (due to “point of sale” business activities) while some industrial tenants generate little or no sales tax. Based on available data, The Natelson Dale Group, Inc. (TNDG) estimates that existing industrial space in the combined Chino/Chino Hills area generates average taxable sales of $32.20 per square foot of building area.3
Given that specific tenants are not currently known for the PSIC or the overall EEAA, it is reasonable to expect that the tenant mix (and therefore the level of sales tax generation) for project would mirror the overall makeup of Chino’s industrial market. However, in order to remain analytically conservative (per direction from City staff), the fiscal analysis assumes that no sales tax revenue would be generated by the proposed project.
Based on estimated industrial sales tax generation in other Inland Empire cities, TNDG believes that it is highly likely that the proposed project would generate significant taxable sales. TNDG estimates industrial 3 This factor was derived from two sources: 1) total taxable sales during Calendar Year 2021 in the “All Other Outlets” (i.e., non-retail) sales category as reported by the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration and 2) total square feet of industrial buildings in Chino/Chino Hills as reported by Kidder Matthews (Q2 2022 industrial “Market Trends” report for the Inland Empire). Specifically, total taxable sales of $1,758,858,921 divided by a total industrial inventory of 54,627,425 square feet equals average taxable sales of $32.20 per square foot. 535
CHINO EAST END ANNEXATION AREA (EEAA) AND PHILADELPHIA STREET INDUSTRIAL CENTER (PSIC) DEVELOPMENT: PLAN FOR SERVICE AND FISCAL ANALYSIS

20 taxable sales PSF in other key Inland Empire sub-markets as follows4 : Corona ($53.24), Fontana ($14.19),
Jurupa Valley ($20.33), Moreno Valley ($8.83), Ontario ($32.38), Perris ($9.12), Rancho Cucamonga ($21.51), Redlands ($7.08), Rialto ($40.77), Riverside ($32.55), and San Bernardino ($16.86). The weighted average for these 12 sub-markets is $25.11 per square foot.
As indicated by the above data, the potential exists for the project to substantially outperform the conservative “no sales tax” assumption used in this analysis. For example, if the project achieved taxable sales equivalent to the existing average for the 12 sub-markets noted above ($25.11 PSF), the project would generate a net fiscal surplus for the City of $41,600 per year under the half-share property tax scenario and $66,400 per year under the full-share property tax scenario. If the project achieved taxable sales equivalent to the existing average for the Chino/Chino Hills area ($32.20 PSF), the project would generate a net fiscal surplus for the City of $53,900 per year under the half-share property tax scenario and $78,800 per year under the full-share property tax scenario. Table E-2 below compares the net fiscal impact of the project under the various property and sales tax scenarios considered in this analysis.

The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires that the City decision makers consider the comments received during the public review of the IS/MND prior to carrying out or approving the project (CEQA Guidelines Section 15074[b]). Comments that do not directly relate to the analysis in the Initial Study (i.e., are outside the scope of this document) or that do not include facts, reasonable assumptions predicated upon facts, and/or expert opinion supported by facts are not given specific responses; however, all comments are included in this section so that the decision makers may know the opinions of the commenter(s).
The Philadelphia Street Industrial Development Site and East End Annexation Project IS/MND was circulated for public and agency review for a 20-day period from June 28 to July 18, 2023. A comment letter from Lozeau Drury LPP dated July 18, 2023 was received by the City of Chino Planning Division and, along with responses, was forwarded with the IS/MND to the Chino Planning Commission for consideration on July 19, 2023.
On July 19, 2023, City of Chino Planning Division recommended the Chino Planning Commission:
(1) adopt Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2023-021, recommending that the City Council adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) for the Philadelphia Street Industrial Development Project and East End Annexation;
(2) Adopt Planning Commission Resolution PC2023-022, recommending the City Council approve PL20-0003 (Prezone/Annexation) in conjunction with the proposed annexation of the East End Avenue Annexation site, based on the findings listed in Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2023-022; and
(3) Adopt Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2023-023, conditionally approving PL20- 0004 (Site Approval) and PL20-0005 (Tentative Parcel Map No. 20174), based upon the findings and subject to the departmental conditions of approval.
On July 19, 2023, the Planning Commission voted 4-3 in favor of the three actions listed above.
On July 27, 2023, the Supporters Alliance for Environmental Responsibility (SAFER), represented by Lozeau Drury LLP, submitted an Appeal Application to City Staff appealing the Planning Commission’s July 19, 2023 decision to approve PL20-0004 (Site Approval) and PL20-0005 (Tentative Parcel Map No. 20174) for the project.
In order to provide the City Council with additional information upon which to base their decision whether to approve or deny the proposed project, City Staff has responded to the comments received by SAFER. The comment letter is labeled “Comment Letter A” with each individual comment identified by a number. The responses are provided following each letter. All written comments along with the City’s responses are attached and have been made a part of the public record.
Neither the comments nor the following responses to comments constitute “significant new information” (State CEQA Guidelines Section 15073.5) that would require recirculation of the IS/MND or the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report. 546

Specific Action or decision which is being appealed: The Supporters Alliance for Environmental Responsibility
(SAFER), represented by Lozeau Drury LLP, appeals the
Planning Commission’s July 19, 2023 decision to approve PL20-0004 (Site Approval) and PL20-0005 (Tentative
Parcel Map No. 20174) for the project.
Specific grounds for the appeal, and the relief requested is as follows: SAFER objects to the county’s [sic] reliance on the MND for the Project. The MND fails to adequately analyze and fully mitigate the Project’s environmental
impacts under CEQA. In addition, adoption of Planning
Commission Resolution No. PC2023-023 prior to the City
Council’s review and adoption of the MND violates CEQA.
An agency may not approve a project until after it
considers a proposed mitigated negative declaration
together with any comments received during the public
review process. See attached letter.
City staff received the appeal application dated
July 27, 2023 from Lozeau Drury LLP on behalf of
Supporters Alliance for Environmental
Responsibility (“SAFER”). The attached letter
referred to in the appeal application is the same
letter received by the Chino Planning Division on
July 18, 2023.
SAFER’s objections in the appeal application are
addressed in the City’s responses to SAFER’s

Based on our initial review, the MND fails to adequately analyze and fully mitigate the Project’s environmental
impacts under the California Environmental Quality Act
(“CEQA”). SAFER requests that an environmental impact
report (“EIR”) be prepared for the Project rather than an MND to ensure that potentially significant impacts of this Project are fully disclosed, analyzed, and mitigated. SAFER requests that the Planning Commission refrain from any
consideration of the Project until an EIR is prepared as required by CEQA.
The commenter’s opinion that the MND fails to
adequately analyze and fully mitigate the Project’s
environmental impacts under the California
Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) and that an
Environmental Impact Report (EIR) should be
prepared for the project to ensure that potentially
significant impacts of the project are fully
disclosed, analyzed, and mitigated is noted.
However, this comment does not identify any

In addition, adoption of Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2023-023 prior to the City Council’s review and
adoption of the MND would violate CEQA. An agency may
not approve a project until after it considers a proposed mitigated negative declaration together with any
comments received during the public review process. (14 C.C.R. § 15074(b); Pub. Res. Code § 21091(f); Citizens for Responsible Government v. City of Albany (1997) 56
The commenter’s opinion that adoption of
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC2023-023
prior to the City Council’s review and adoption of
the MND would violate CEQA is noted. Land use
entitlements in the City are typically approved by
the planning commission. However, the final
approving body for the Prezone and Annexation
(PL 20-0003) will be the Chino City Council.

Cal.App.4th 1199.) Even though additional approvals may be required, CEQA review is required prior to the first agency approval of a project, when the agency commits
itself to a definite course of action. (Save Tara v. City of West Hollywood (2008) 45 Cal. 4th 116, 137-138).
Accordingly, the Chino Planning Commission acts

MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM
PHILADELPHIA STREET INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT SITE
AND EAST END ANNEXATION PROJECT
Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program 1
This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program has been prepared for use in implementing mitigation for the:
Philadelphia Street Industrial Development Site and East End Annexation Project Prezone and Annexation (PL 20-0003), Site Approval (PL 20-0004), and Tentative Parcel Map No. 20174 (PL 20-0005)
The program has been prepared in compliance with State law and the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) prepared for the project by the City of Chino (City).
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires adoption of a reporting or monitoring program for those measures placed on a project to mitigate or avoid significant effects on the environment (Public Resource Code Section 21081.6). The law states the reporting or monitoring program shall be designed to ensure compliance during project implementation.
The monitoring program contains the following elements:
1) The mitigation measures are recorded with the action and procedure necessary to ensure compliance. In some instances, one action may be used to verify implementation of several mitigation measures.
2) A procedure for compliance and verification has been outlined for each action necessary. This procedure designates who will take action, what action will be taken and when, and to whom and when compliance will be reported.
3) The program has been designed to be flexible. As monitoring progresses, changes to compliance procedures may be necessary based upon recommendations by those responsible for the program. As changes are made, new monitoring compliance procedures and records will be developed and incorporated into the program.
This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program includes mitigation identified in the MND.
MITIGATION MONITORING AND RESPONSIBILITIES
As the Lead Agency, the City is responsible for ensuring full compliance with the mitigation measures adopted for the proposed project. The City will monitor and report on all mitigation activities.
Mitigation measures will be implemented at different stages of development throughout the project site. In this regard, the responsibilities for implementation have been assigned to the Applicant, Contractor, or a combination thereof. If, during the course of project implementation, any of the mitigation measures identified herein cannot be successfully implemented, the City shall be immediately informed, and the City will then inform any affected responsible agencies. The City, in conjunction with any affected responsible agencies, will then determine if modification to the project is required and/or whether alternative mitigation is appropriate.
STANDARD CONDITIONS
Standard Conditions are presented in instances where the proposed project would not create a significant impact but would be required to adhere to regulatory requirements in order to ensure impacts do not become significant. Standard Conditions outline compliance with various federal, State, and/or local acts, laws, rules, regulations, municipal codes, policies, etc. 565
