Additionally, the Project meets or exceeds all minimum 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 use proposed, as all minimum zoning requirements governing parcel size, shape, access, type and intensity of development have been met or exceeded. The 7.35-acre site is flat and will have adequate infrastructure and four points of vehicular access from Schaefer Avenue and Oaks Avenue. Utilities and stormwater improvements will be extended to serve the site;
d. The subject site for the Project 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 proposed Project, in that the Project site is located along Schaefer Avenue, which is designated as a primary arterial and Oaks Avenue, which is designated as an urban industrial collector.

Access to the site is provided from the adjacent streets. Additionally, 1590

Schaefer Avenue is designated as a truck route. Both streets are currently improved and has adequate capacity to serve the proposed Project; e. The proposed Project is compatible with those abutting properties and in the surrounding area. The Project is located within an area designated for industrial uses and is surrounded by existing industrial developments to the east, south and west. To the north, Schaefer Avenue separates the singlefamily residential development from the Project. The Project will have no significant negative light, noise, and aesthetic impacts, as the building has been designed to meet all development and design requirements of the M1 zoning district, in which it is located;
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, as the proposed Project consists of a mixed-use development with an industrial building and a food and beverage building, which is consistent with the M1 zoning district. In addition, certain safeguards have been required of the proposed Project, which the Planning Commission deems necessary to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare. These safeguards (Conditions of Approval) are attached hereto as Exhibit “A”; g. The proposed Project will not have a significant adverse impact on the environment as an Addendum to the City of Chino General Plan Environmental Impact Report (SCH# 2008091064) for the Chino Gateway Terminal Project has been prepared for this Project pursuant to Section 15164 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines. The Project is within the scope of the EIR, which adequately describes the activity for the purposes of CEQA. The Addendum satisfies the requirement of CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines (California Public Resources Code §§ 21000 et seq.; 14 Cal. Code Regs. §§ 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 and have been imposed as conditions of Project approval by the Chino Planning Commission.

development of new industrial uses that contributes to the City’s economic development, while ensuring such uses are planned and designed to prevent negative impacts on the health, safety, and welfare of residents; b. 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 use proposed, as all minimum zoning requirements governing parcel size, shape access, type and intensity of the use have already been met or exceeded and the appropriate infrastructure and public improvements are conditioned to be constructed with the development. Additionally, the proposed 158,548 square foot industrial building meets all requirements and development standards in the Zoning Ordinance;
c. 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 proposed use; as the 158,548 square foot industrial building will have direct access from one driveway off Schaefer Avenue and a second driveway off Oaks Avenue. Schaefer Avenue is designated as a primary arterial and truck route and Oaks Avenue is designated as an urban industrial collector, both streets designed to carry the volume of traffic typically generated by the use;
d. The proposed use is compatible with those on abutting properties and in the surrounding neighborhood. The Project is located within an area designated for industrial uses and is surrounded by existing industrial developments to the east, south and west. To the north, Schaefer Avenue, separates the single-family residential development from the use. The use will have no significant negative light, noise, and aesthetic impacts, as the building has been designed to meet all development and design requirements of the M1 zoning district, in which it is located. Additionally, the M1 zoning district is intended for industrial uses that are less intensive;
e. The proposed location, size, and operating characteristics of the proposed use will not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety or general welfare, as the 158,548 square foot industrial building is allowed in the M1 zoning district, subject to the approval of a SCUP. In addition, certain safeguards have been required of the proposed use, which the Planning Commission deems necessary to protect the public health, safety, and general welfare. These safeguards (Conditions of Approval) are attached hereto as Exhibit “A”;

MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM

CHINO GATEWAY TERMINAL PROJECT
Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program 1
This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program has been prepared for use in implementing mitigation for the:

Chino Gateway Terminal Project
Special Conditional Use Permits (PL24-0097 and PL24-0120), Site Approval (PL24-0098) The program has been prepared in compliance with State law and Addendum to The City of Chino General Plan Environmental Impact Report (State Clearinghouse No. 2008091064) 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 City of Chino General Plan Environmental Impact Report (State Clearinghouse No. 2008091064).

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 shall monitor and report on all mitigation activities.

Mitigation measures shall be implemented at different stages of development throughout the project site. In this regard, the responsibilities for implementation have been assigned to the Applicant, City, 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 shall then inform any affected responsible agencies. The City, in conjunction with any affected responsible agencies, shall then determine if modification to the project is required and/or whether alternative mitigation is appropriate.

REGULATORY COMPLIANCE MEASURES
Regulatory Compliance Measures 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. Regulatory Compliance Measures outline compliance with various federal, State, and/or local acts, laws, rules, regulations, municipal codes, policies, etc. 1612

Re: Comment on Addendum to the City of Chino General Plan EIR (SCH 2008091064) for the Chino Gateway Terminal Project July 15, 2025 Planning Commission Agenda Item 4
Dear Chair Alexandris, Vice Chair Fraga, Honorable Planning Commissioners and Ms. Le:

This comment is submitted on behalf of Supporters Alliance for Environmental Responsibility (“SAFER”) regarding the Chino Gateway Terminal Project (PL24-0097, PL24-0098, PL24-0120), which proposes demolition of three existing buildings and associated ancillary structures (totaling 17,716 square feet) and the development of a 158,548 square-foot warehouse building and a 3,520 square-foot multi-tenant restaurant building, located on an approximately 7.35-acre site bounded by Schaefer Avenue and Oaks Avenue intersection in the City of Chino, on Accessor’s Parcel Numbers 1021-052-04, 1021-052-06, 1021-052-09, and 1021-052-11 (“Project”), to be heard as Agenda Item 4 at the Planning Commission’s July 15, 2025 meeting.

SAFER objects to the City’s reliance on an Addendum to the City of Chino General Plan Environmental Impact Report (SCH No. 2008091064), certified in 2010 (“GPEIR”), for the Project. Under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), an addendum is not appropriate because the Project is not within the scope of the prior program EIR and there is new information available since certification of the 2010 GPEIR indicating new significant impacts and/or the availability of new mitigation measures. Therefore, SAFER requests that the Planning Commission refrain from taking any action on the Project at this time and, 1632

instead, direct staff to prepare an initial study for the Project, followed by a project-specific EIR or negative declaration as required by CEQA.

WHEREAS, on September 16, 2025, the City Council held a duly noticed public hearing to consider appellant’s appeal, considered the written and oral report of staff and all oral and written evidence presented and closed the public hearing.

NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council 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 City Council makes the following findings and takes the following actions on the appeal and on PL24- 0097 (Special Conditional Use Permit), PL24-0098 (Site Approval) and PL24-0120 (Special Conditional Use Permit):

1. PL24-0098 (Site Approval)
a. The proposed Project is consistent with the goals and policies of the City’s 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 for industrial uses with fewer impacts on traffic, noises, odors and pollutants and allows for a broad range of uses. The Project has been designed to meet applicable development standards and design guidelines. The Project serves General Plan Goal LU-2 and Objective LU-2.1 which aim to foster the development of new industrial uses in the City while preventing negative impacts on the health, safety, and welfare of residents and General Plan Objective LU-1.3 which encourages commercial development that will support and enhance vibrant commercial areas and serve existing neighborhoods;
b. The proposed Project is permitted within the zoning district in which it is proposed and complies with all applicable provisions of the City’s Zoning Code. The Project is located in the Light Industrial (M1) zoning district and consists of a 158,548 square foot warehouse industrial building and a 3,540 square foot food and beverage building with an outdoor dining area. The restaurant uses and the size of the warehouse building, which exceeds 50,000 square feet, require approval of a Special Conditional Use Permit. Additionally, the Project meets or exceeds all minimum 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 use proposed, as all minimum zoning requirements governing parcel size, shape, access, type and intensity of development have been met or exceeded. The 7.35-acre site is flat and will have adequate infrastructure and four points of vehicular access from Schaefer Avenue and Oaks Avenue. Utilities and stormwater improvements will be extended to serve the site;
d. The subject site for the Project 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 proposed Project, in that the Project site is located along Schaefer Avenue, which is designated as a primary arterial and Oaks Avenue, 1635
RESOLUTION NO. 2025-058

Page 3 of 7 ends

01225.0005/813665.1
which is designated as an urban industrial collector. Access to the site is provided from the adjacent streets. Additionally, Schaefer Avenue is designated as a truck route. Both streets are currently improved and has adequate capacity to serve the proposed Project;
e. The proposed Project is compatible with those abutting properties and in the surrounding area. The Project is located within an area designated for industrial uses and is surrounded by existing industrial developments to the east, south and west. To the north, Schaefer Avenue separates the single-family residential development from the Project.

4. CEQA Findings. An Addendum to the City of Chino General Plan Environmental Impact Report (SCH# 2008091064) for the Chino Gateway Terminal Project has been prepared by LSA Associates, Inc. for this Project pursuant to Section 15164 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines. The City Council has considered the Addendum and Environmental Impact Report as part of its decision on this Project pursuant to Section 15164. The City Council hereby finds that the Project is within the scope of the EIR, which adequately describes the activity for the purposes of CEQA. The City Council hereby finds that the Project will not have any impacts that would require a revision to the EIR or any other additional environmental review.

5. Deny the appeal and grant approval of PL24-0097 (Special Conditional Use Permit), PL24-0098 (Site Approval) and PL24-0120 (Special Conditional Use Permit). The City Council hereby makes the following findings:
a. SAFER’s appeal presents vague and unsupported claims that new information, significant environmental impacts and/or mitigation measures may have emerged since the 2010 GPEIR was certified and therefore claims that a new EIR or Negative Declaration is required. However, the Addendum and the Planning Commission’s decision were based on comprehensive technical analysis that evaluated the Project’s environmental impacts.
b. The Addendum provided: 1) a detailed summary of relevant General Plan policies for each environmental topic addressed in the GPEIR; 2) the level of impact for each environmental topic identified in the GPEIR; and 3) an evaluation of the Project’s impacts compared to those analyzed in the GPEIR. The Addendum appropriately compared the impacts of the Project with those anticipated from full General Plan buildout. This is backed by the numerous technical studies that evaluated potential impacts and concluded that no additional mitigation would be required for the Project. Based on this analysis, the Planning Commission found no evidence that the Project would result in new or more severe significant impacts than those previously identified in the GPEIR.
c. As documented in the Addendum, the Project would not result in any new significant impacts, nor would it cause a substantial increase in the severity of existing impacts beyond those addressed in the GPEIR. The Project’s potential impacts are equal or less than those evaluated in the GPEIR. Additionally, there have been no substantial changes in the Project’s conditions or location that would lead to new or more severe environmental impacts. Therefore, no new information has been identified that would require further CEQA review under Section 15162.

Based on such findings, the City Council hereby denies the appeal and approves PL24- 0097 (Special Conditional Use Permit), PL24-0098 (Site Approval) and PL24-0120 (Special Conditional Use Permit) subject to the Conditions of Approval attached hereto as 1639
