STAFF REPORT
9/21/2022
TO: Planning Commission Chair and Commissioners
FROM: Gabriel Perez, Development Services Director
SUBJECT: Coachella Research Park #2 Landscape and Odor Control Plan review SPECIFICS: An approved 833,829 sq. ft. multi-tenant medical cannabis cultivation facility at 48-451 Harrison Street. Applicant: Desert Rock Development.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission consider and approve the landscape and odor control plans for Coachella Research Park #2.
BACKGROUND:
The applicant, Desert Rock
Development LLC, proposed a medical
cannabis cultivation development of a
20-acre site that has been the location of
Desert Truck and Auto Parts that
includes:
Six buildings totaling 505,520
square feet with 98,520 square
feet of indoor grow floor area in
4 building and 404,308 square
feet of greenhouse floor area in
2 greenhouse structures and 668 parking spaces. Environmental Assessment No. 17-02, Conditional Use Permit No. 280, AR No. 17-04, Variance 18-05. Planning Commission Approved and City Council on February 13, 2019 (Resolution No. 2019-02) A Development Agreement was approved establishing a taxation rate for cannabis cultivation, manufacturing and distribution.
The project is currently under construction for Building 4. Condition No. 89 of Resolution No. 2019-02 (AR No. 17-04 and CUP 280) and requires that the final design of landscaping and fencing along the street frontages be presented as an administrative item before the Planning Commission for final review and approval.
15 Item 2.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The project site included planters for landscaping along the project frontage around a large retention basin and planters on the project site as landscape planters as landscape fingers and the perimeter 5 foot width landscape planters.
Trees
The original approved conceptual landscape plan included 15 date palm trees (18 ft brown trunk height) located at the project frontage and throughout the project site (Attachment 2). California Fan Palm is proposed for a majority of the trees (117 quantity) in the new proposed landscape plan at a 9-12 ft brown trunk height (Attachment 1). The approved plan included Palo Verde for shade trees in the parking lot areas and Australian Willow and Brisbane Box trees in the 5 foot width perimeter landscape area as secondary shade trees. In total 465 trees were proposed with the conceptual landscape plan. The new landscape plan proposes 184 trees.
Figure 1 Conceptual Landscape Plan Legend Figure 2 New Proposed Landscape Shrubs
The applicant proposes changes to the shrub landscape legend and reduces the shrub varieties from 16 proposed shrubs to eight varieties. A comparison of landscape around buildings and the landscape perimeter in the proposed landscape plan versus approved conceptual landscape plan shows a sparse placement of shrubs and shade trees replaced with California Fan Palms in the new plan.
16 Item 2.
Figure 3 Conceptual Shrub Legend Figure 4 New Proposed Landscape Plan Legend Figure 4: Conceptual landscape versus proposed landscape plan in building and perimeter areas.
Approved Conceptual Landscape
Proposed Landscape
17 Item 2.
The applicant proposes to eliminate the accent boulders and the cobblestone at the bottom of the retention basin along the project frontage on Harrison Street and instead utilize 3/8 inch decomposed granite in the basin and throughout all landscape areas. Staff believes the change to the landscape plan is significant and recommends that the landscape plan be revised as follows:
Maintain original 15 date palm trees
Maintain most original proposed shade tree varieties in perimeter and parking area landscape planters by reducing California Fan Palm quantity to 30. Increase quantity of shrubs around buildings and maintain original count of shrubs in retention basin from the approved conceptual landscape plan. Utilize accent boulders in frontage area.
Utilize ¾ inch decomposed granite along frontage landscape area. Maintain original cobblestone concept at the bottom of the retention basin. Utilize deep well irrigation for trees instead of proposed above ground bubblers.
ODOR CONTROL PLAN
The applicant proposes an odor control plan for the cannabis cultivation facility utilizing a MicroCool fog system which consists of a high-pressure fog system where greenhouse exhaust fans are fitted with a ring of MicroCool nozzles that atomize liquid under high pressure into billions of micro-fine water droplets injected with odor neutralizer that traps airborne odor and biodegrades the odor (Attachment 3). Staff has reviewed the odor control plan and does not have any concern about the use of the odor control technology. Staff will monitor the effectiveness of the odor control system when the facility is operational and require modifications if necessary.
TEMPORARY PROCESSING TRAILER
The applicant proposed a temporary 4,320 sq. ft. processing trailer at the rear of Building 4, which will be used for processing cannabis plants cultivated in the greenhouse for 24 month term. An area for storage of above ground propane tanks is also proposed. Staff seeks Planning Commission feedback on the temporary trailer. The trailer will have a minimal aesthetic impact, is consistent with the activities permitted on-site and would only be used for a 24 month period.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission approve the odor control plan and landscape plan subject to recommended changes by City staff.
2. Deny the landscape and odor control plan.
3. Continue this item and provide staff and the applicant with direction.

Odor Control
MB-26, Coachella
Preamble.
NOTICE: MicroCool do not supply odor control additives directly. MicroCool supply the carrier/delivery equipment and carrier for the odor control chemical. We have worked with various odor control chemical companies over the years and have a good understanding of the operation and function of the system.
It is up to the individual to purchase a suitable chemical. Odor Gone is a client of ours and we are aware of the many successful operations where it has been used successfully.
Odor Control with MicroCool Fogging systems – overview.
The malodors of any type are airborne; they come from various sources in the greenhouse. Working with the greenhouse constructor, we isolate the “Point Source Emissions” of the malodor and provide material to remediate the odor at these locations.
At the source of the problem, MicroCool will supply a ring or array of nozzles to surround the outlet and “cover” the malodors as they escape.
MicroCool manufactures and supplies custom made systems for this application. Clean city water is routed to a high-pressure pump (1,000 +psi). Before entering the pump, a suitable odor control chemical is injected into the water at between 1:500 – 1:3,000 dilution.
A network of Stainless steel and flexible tubing route the water to the Point Source Emission locations. The water is then forced into a patented nozzle with a 0.008” orifice. Here the water solution is atomized into billions of minute droplets averaging about 10 microns in size (1/10th the diameter of a human hair).
The objective of the small droplets is that water will only flash evaporate from the surface, having a small droplet vastly increases the surface to volume ratio.
The water will immediately flash evaporate (adding humidity and reducing temperature) leaving the droplets of the odor chemical floating in the air (also with a large surface to volume ratio) to attack the malodor.
The odor control additive will then attach itself to the malodor and proceed to eliminate the malodor biologically leaving a “top note” residue in the air. This effect is known as “Van der Waals Forces” (a reaction of two dissimilar chemicals to combine when in close proximity).
IMPORTANT DISTINCTION: On the market there are many chemicals available. A true odor control chemical will merge and eliminate the malodor. Some chemical manufacturers claim to eliminate odors but do this by “masking” the malodor creating a 3rd odor. In our experience these do not work and should be avoided.

“World Leaders in Adiabatic Cooling Technology”
System Operation:
Each bay of the greenhouse has extraction fans on the roof of the corridor. All air must pass through these fans before reaching the outside ambient conditions. It is here that the work of the MicroCool system and Odor chemical is done. Also note that MicroCool fog on its own provides a degree of odor elimination by diluting the malodor.
The speed and operation of the fans can be controlled from the climate computer. Generally, as soon as the fans are in operation the MicroCool system is running. Each bay is controlled individually so that the system is only operating when the fans in that bay are running.
There are various conditions that can also control the operation of the extractor fans, these are governed by the climate computer operator. The greenhouse manager will tune the system to his/her environment and conditions
Result and fine tuning.
When in operation (under normal circumstances), the observer should only be aware of the “top note” left by the Odor Control Chemical. It is generally not noticeable at a distance from the greenhouse. The malodors then fall slowly to ground level where they continue to be bio digested by the odor control chemical.
Adjustments.
The dilution rate of the Odor Control chemical can be adjusted by the operator as required. The nozzle lines on the fans can also “pulse” to reduce the application of the odor control chemical as required.

CANODOR1701 MICROCOOL PALM SPRINGS, CA 92276 [email protected] microcool.com MicroCool has built a 35+ year track
record of building fog systems for use
in horticulture greenhouses around the
world. High-pressure fog systems maintain constant temperature and humidification levels while integrating with existing climate computers, ventilation systems
and other control elements.
Our fog systems have been utilized in a
wide variety of odor control applications
in industries where noxious odors are
an unwelcome by-product. From waste
transfer stations to sewage treatment
plants, odor elimination is effective and
environmentally safe.
MicroCool fog systems are the perfect
fit for optimizing cannabis growth while
maintaining an odor free grow facility.
Why Choose MicroCool Fog?
Provides non-toxic
odor elimination
Avoids costly fines
Traps airborne odors
almost instantly
MICROCOOL FOG APPLICATION CANNABIS ODOR CONTROL
The pervasive, heavy scent of the cannabis plant during the flowering stage is a concern for every cannabis grower. Municipalities are beginning to pass regulations around noisome odors that can invade a community’s quality of life.
This is especially true in cities or counties which have enacted special zones for marijuana grow facilities. Failure to provide an adequate odor control system can generate complaints and potentially escalate into costly environmental fines and penalties.
Eliminating (not masking) unpleasant odors is the answer – and MicroCool has the solution.
The Solution
Greenhouse exhaust fans are fitted with a ring of MicroCool nozzles that atomize liquids under high-pressure into billions of micro-fine water droplets (or fog). The MicroCool system injects a highly concentrated (1:1000) mixture of odor-neutralizer into the water fog before dispersing into the air. The droplets’ small size (1/10th the diameter of a human hair) creates more surface area which speeds evaporation, instantly releasing the odor-neutralizing product that traps airborne odors and biodegrades the unpleasant smell.
The complete system includes high-pressure pumps, distribution lines, fog rings and injector(s). One pump unit can accommodate multiple exhaust points and support separate zones as required.
Recommended Odor Neutralizer
There are many products on the market that simply mask odors and can contain harmful and equally noxious chemicals. MicroCool partners with OdorGone® industrial strength odor neutralizer to completely absorb and eliminate odors.
Their non-toxic, eco-friendly botanical extracts have undergone extensive tests and provide a safe solution that works well with MicroCool’s systems.

OdorGone® INDUSTRIAL ODOR NEUTRALIZER …Is an environmentally responsible, stand-alone, “Eco-Degradable” odor neutralizer. OdorGone is specifically formulated for emergency odor neutralization and daily odor control throughout the waste industry. OdorGone will neutralize the unlimited variety of noisome that result in community complaints and hostile neighbors. OdorGone will replace the hazardous chemical masking agents and perfume fragrant products available today.
OdorGone is manufactured in America by an Exothermic Reaction Synthesis; creating a proprietary, one of a kind odor neutralizer of non-toxic, eco-degradable” botanical extracts, all having a long history of safety in use. The result of the process is a water base compound that features a semi-rigid, concave molecular structure giving OdorGone the unique ability to capture and hold malodor such as mercaptans, amines and sulphides. We prefer the term "Eco-Degradable" rather than the more restrictive term biodegradable. The reason is the degradation of OdorGone can go on even without a living organism. OdorGone has built into the molecules weak points, making them eco-degradable, such that they are destroyed naturally after performing their task, leaving your environment completely odor free.
OdorGone will eliminate all unwanted airborne, static, or imbedded odors almost instantly. With multipurpose applications, OdorGone can be atomized, sprayed, squirted, sponged, mopped or poured to reach and neutralize the odor at its source. OdorGone contains no enzymes, alcohols, perfume fragrances or chemical masking agents. OdorGone’s natural signature scent is derived from a proprietary blend of botanicals or plant extracts that will neutralize along with the unwanted odor. As we like to say…Bring your environment “Back to Natural” so environmental responsibility is not a question.

municipalities, school districts, and independent
contractors. Ken L. Eberhard founded the company in
1945. There are two locations within Southern
California, the first location is at Santa Ana in
operation for over 40 years and the second location is
the subject property in the City of Coachella. The site was once the location of California Pools and Spas and
the development was approved by the Planning
Commission on October 17, 2001 as Architectural
Review No. 01-14 with a monument sign at the corner
of Tyler Street and Avenue 54.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The applicant, Eberhard Equipment No. 2, has submitted a request for an Architecture Review for freestanding identification sign. The freestanding sign consist of a pylon sign at 21 feet in height located at the southern portion of the property along Avenue 54 as shown in the Figure 2 below. 76 Item 3.

Figure 1: Sign Plan
The proposed freestanding sign at 21’ in height depicts the business name “Kubata,” “Eberhard Equipment,” and “Coachella, CA” with vacuum formed acrysteel pan faces internally illuminated with LED lighting. The “Kubata” name and “K” symbol are embossed letters on the pan faces. The Kubata portion of the sign is orange in color with black lettering. The remainder of the sign is colored black and lettering for the business and location are in white.
The proposed sign complies with all development standards for signs (C.M.C. Chapter 17.56 Signs) as identified in Table 1, except for sign face size. The applicant proposes a sign with a 96 sq. ft. sign face area and the Zoning Ordinance allows a maximum sign face area of 75 sq. ft, and therefore the sign cannot be approved without approval of a variance and making the variance findings. Staff cannot support the variance as there are no practical difficulties and unnecessary physical hardships; there is observed disparity of privilege to remedy, or the need to permit a use substantially inconsistent with the limitation upon other properties in the same 78 Item 3.
zone and vicinity. If the Planning Commission elected to support the sign, staff would recommend that all black portions of the sign face be masked to reduce glare.
Environmental Setting:
The subject site has an existing building with on-site improvements on a 3.86 site, consisting of a
1.35-acre parcel and a 2.51-acre parcel, and generally surrounded by industrial and agricultural uses, with adjoining zoning and land uses as follows:
North: Vacant Land (M-H) Heavy Industrial Zone
South: Avenue 54 and Vacant Agricultural Land (M-H) Heavy Industrial Zone East: Industrial Building (M-H) Heavy Industrial Zone
West: Vacant Agricultural Land (M-S) Manufacturing Service Zone Site Plan / Parking and Circulation:
The project site includes two adjoining parcels with a main entrance located on Avenue 54 with secondary access for stored vehicles and equipment on Tyler Street. The business currently displays/stores farming/agricultural vehicles on existing parking spaces located to the south and west of the building.
CONSISTENCY WITH THE GENERAL PLAN:
The proposed freestanding identification sign is intended to attract customers to the subject site business. The location of the proposed sign is within the General Plan Subarea 5 – Airport District, which includes a policy to “Encourage the development of a variety of industrial and manufacturing uses within this subarea.” The site is within the Industrial District land use designation of the General Plan. The proposed sign would be compatible with the vision and goals of the General Plan.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff has determined that the proposed project is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to the guidelines of the California Environmental Quality Act as “Accessory StructuresOn premise signs” CEQA Guidelines, Section 15311, Class 11).
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. PC 2022-21, denying Architecture Review No. 22-06 with findings.
2. Deny the proposed project.
3. Continue this item and provide staff and the applicant with direction. 79 Item 3.

WHEREAS Joe Rodriguez, on behalf of Eberhard Equipment No. 2 filed an application for Architectural Review No. 22-06 and Variance No. 22-03 to freestanding identification sign at 21 feet high and 96 sq. ft. sign face area for an existing agricultural equipment rental business located on a 3.86 acre site at 86100 Avenue 54 (Assessor’s Parcel No. 763-141-009 and 763-141- 007); and,
WHEREAS on October 7, 2001 the Planning Commission approved Architectural Review No. 01-14 to allow the construction of a 10,000 sq. ft. industrial building with offices, warehouse, and outdoor storage space with a corner monument sign located at 86100 Avenue 54 for California Pools; and,
WHEREAS on September 11, 2022, the Planning Commission of the City of Coachella published a public hearing notice and conducted a duly noticed public hearing on Architectural Review No. 22-06 and Variance No. 22-03 and considered the application as presented by the applicant, findings, conditions and staff recommendations; and WHEREAS the Applicant and members of the public were present and were afforded an opportunity to testify regarding the Project; and,
WHEREAS the proposal to allow the proposed freestanding sign would be inconsistent with the City of Coachella Zoning Ordinance with respect to total sign area as the proposed sign proposes a sign area of 96 sq. ft. which exceeds the 75 sq, ft. maximum size permitted in the Zoning Ordinance and the findings to support granting of the variance cannot be made; and, WHEREAS, the proposed project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act, as amended; and,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission of the City of Coachella, California hereby resolve as follows:
Section 1. Incorporation of Recitals
The Planning Commission hereby finds that all of the facts in the Recitals are true and correct and are incorporated and adopted as findings of the Planning Commission as fully set forth in this resolution.
Section 2. CEQA Findings
81 Item 3.
Resolution PC2022-21
Based upon its review of the entire record, including the Staff Report, any public comments or testimony presented to the Planning Commission, and the facts outlined below, the Planning Commission hereby finds and determines that the proposed project is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Class 11) “Accessory Structures” as the applicant proposes an on-premise sign which is consistent with the Class 11 exemption for construction, or placement of minor structures accessory to existing industrial facilities.
Section 3. Variance Findings
With respect to Variance No. 22-02, the Planning Commission finds as follows for the proposed variance request:
1. That the strict application of the provisions of this chapter would not result in practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships inconsistent with the general purpose and intent of the chapter the Coachella Municipal Code as the subject site is located in the Heavy Industrial Zone that permits monument signs or freestanding signs consistent with the Coachella Zoning Ordinance. The subject site has direct street frontage on Avenue 54 and Tyler Street and a sign constructed for consistency with the City’s Sign ordinance would be visible to customers and would not pose a practical difficulty or unnecessary hardship.
2. That there are no special circumstances applicable to the subject property such as size, shape, topography, location or surroundings, that do not apply generally to other property in the same zone and vicinity. The Zoning Ordinance Chapter 17.56 allows for a sign face size based on ten (10) square feet of sign per acre to a maximum area of seventy-five (75) square feet per face for businesses with one more than two and one-half acres of land.
The subject site is more than two and on-half acres and allows for the largest sign face of 75 square feet available to businesses citywide.
3. That such variance is unnecessary for the preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right or use generally possessed by other property in the same zone and vicinity as the previous business on the subject site utilized a monument sign on-site less than 6 feet in height. The applicant is able to propose a sign of up to 25’ in height with a 75 sq. ft. sign face area which is much larger than the originally approved sign for the subject site.
4. That the granting of such variance would be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the same zone or vicinity in which the property is located as it would establish a precedence for larger signs in the area when no practical difficulties or unique circumstances exist for this subject site.
5. That the granting of the variance will not adversely effect any element of the general plan.
Though the general plan does not preclude a larger sign at this location, the Zoning Ordinance does not support such signs at the sign face size proposed.
Section 4. Architectural Review Findings
82 Item 3.
Resolution No. PC2022-21
With respect to Architectural Review No. 22-06, the Planning Commission finds as follows for the proposed freestanding sign request:
1. Compatibility with neighboring property. The proposed sign would not be compatible with signage for industrial properties in the vicinity and can be constructed to be compatible with the Zoning Ordinance.
2. The Zoning Ordinance development standards allows for a maximum sign area of 75 square feet considered suitable of industrial sites larger than 2 ½ acres and architectural review by the Planning Commission to determine suitability of the sign for the site. A variance for allow for the larger sign would result in a precedence where other industrial signs could be proposed at a similar size or larger beyond the size permitted in the Zoning Ordinance which would result in a negative aesthetic impact within the vicinity.
3. Though the proposed sign would not impact traffic congestion, the proposed sign would have an adverse effect on neighboring property as the proposed sign would have an appearance too large for the subject site and result in the potential increase in light glare.
4. That approval of the Architectural Review No. 22-06 will not adversely effect any element of the general plan. Though the general plan does not preclude a larger sign at this location, the Zoning Ordinance does not support such signs at the sign face size proposed.
Section 5. Planning Commission Denial
Based on the foregoing recitals and findings above, and the written and oral comments, facts and evidence presented, the City of Coachella Planning Commission denies Architectural Review No. 22-06 and Variance No. 22-03 for the Eberhard Equipment No. 2 freestanding sign project.

STAFF REPORT

TO: Planning Commission Chair and Commissioners
FROM: Gabriel Perez, Development Services Director
SUBJECT: Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 22-07 - Amending Subsections (A) and (C) of Section 17.32.020 of Title 17 (Zoning) of the Coachella Municipal Code Modifying Regulations For Heavy Industrial Uses Within the City’s M-H (Heavy Industrial) Zone. City-Initiated. (Continuance Requested) STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission continue consideration of Resolution No.
PC2022-32, a resolution recommending that the City Council (Council) approve an ordinance amending Subsections (A) and (C) of Section 17.32.020of Title 17 (Zoning) of the Coachella Municipal Code. City staff met with representatives Imperial Western Products (IWP) before publication of this report and they expressed concern about the proposed ordinance and how it could impact their existing business. IWP has an industrial facility for the production of biodiesel fuels at 86-600 Avenue 54 within the Heavy Industrial Zone. IWP representatives would like to discuss the proposed Zoning Ordinance amendments and potential changes that minimize impact to their business. The City of Coachella City Manager is preparing a support letter for IWP’s USDA grant application for a proposed expansion of their facility to include a biodiesel and electric fueling facility, with a potential commercial establishment.
BACKGROUND:
The Planning Commission reviewed a non-hearing item in 2018 for a heavy industrial use in the City that is subject only to an administrative review by the Director. These heavy industrial uses can have significant environmental effects that are not subject to further study because the underlying land uses are permitted “as of right” and the expansions to these uses do not necessarily result in increased floor area. Staff is recommending changes to the land use regulations of the MH (Heavy Industrial) zone to require a conditional use permit review for these more intensive land uses. This could trigger an environmental assessment for expansions in floor area and expansions in footprint for new structures related to these uses.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of an ordinance (Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 18-01) at the Planning Commission meeting of November 7, 2018 that addresses zoning ordinance changes to the M-H zone presented in this report. The 2018 ordinance also addressed modifications to the Municipal Code with respect to time extension requests for Architectural Review and Conditional Use Permits. Upon a review of the 2018-19 City Council 89 Item 5.
record by Planning staff, it was determined that the 2018 ordinance was never considered by the City Council and no final action taken regarding the ordinance. In 2021, the consideration of M-H use categories in the Zoning Ordinance were separated from the consideration of the Architectural Review and Conditional Use Permit time extension, since City staff believed that the Zoning Ordinance changes were unrelated. A zoning ordinance amendment was presented for Architectural Review and Conditional Use Permit time extensions to the Planning Commission for reconsideration and was adopted by the City Council as Ordinance No. 1190 on December 8, 2021.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
Zone Text Amendment Overview
The following paragraphs summarize the current and proposed language of Subsections (A) and (C) of Section 17.32.020, and Sections 17.72.010 and 17.74.050 of Title 17 of the Coachella Municipal Code.
Subsections (A) and (C) of Section 17.32.020 of Chapter 17.32 of Title 17 of the Coachella Municipal Code are hereby amended to read as follows (deleted text in strikethrough; added text in underlined text):
“17.32.020 - Permitted uses.

Subsection J(2) of Section 17.72.050 of Chapter 17.72 of Title 17 of the Coachella Municipal Code is hereby amended to read as follows (deleted text in strikethrough; added text in underlined text):
“17.74.050 - Post-determination procedures.
A. Intent and Purpose. To provide flexibility in the placement and interrelationship of structures and uses subject to architectural review; to provide for the implementation of sound site plan design concepts while maintaining the overall intensity of land use and density of population; to review the site plan of those uses which are not intrinsically objectionable to the predominant use category of the district, but which have inherent characteristics which, if not properly handled, have potentials for becoming detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of the public, or to neighboring land uses; to determine whether or not a proposed development will properly comply with the architectural guidelines of the city and the provisions and development standards required by this chapter or as prescribed by the planning director, or other authorized agent; to 91 Item 5.
improve the quality of development and to provide a mechanism whereby the city can insure well-designed development.
Environmental Review
The Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it does not qualify as a “project” under CEQA. The State CEQA Guidelines provide that “[a]n activity is not subject to CEQA if … the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15060(c).) Here, Zone Text Amendment 2022-1132 does not qualify as a “project” as defined in State CEQA Guidelines section 15378 for at least two different reasons.
First, Section 15378 defines a project as an activity that “has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(a).) Here, Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 will not result in any construction or development, and it will not have any effect that would physically change the environment. Accordingly, the Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 is not a “project” subject to CEQA. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15060(c).) Any future proposed uses within existing development in the M-H Zone would be subject to the requirements of the M-H Zone and those uses that require Conditional Use Permit would be subject to any review requirements under CEQA and supported by written findings. Any future development in the M-H Zone conjunction with planned uses are subject to review under CEQA regardless if uses are permitted by right or conditionally permitted. The City Council authority, pursuant to C.M.C.
Section 17.02.030, is for the careful consideration to the suitability of each and every zone for the regulations applicable to it, and that these regulations are found to best serve the above purposes.
The City Council further finds that the Zoning regulations are in the public interest, and that due and careful consideration has been given to the relationship between these regulations and the general plan of the City, and the established plans in the unincorporated area of the County of Riverside. The Planning Commission pursuant to C.MC. Section 17.70.020 shall advise and recommend to the city council with respect jurisdiction over amendment to change the text of the Zoning ordinance.
Second, Section 15378 explicitly excludes from its definition of “project” the following:
“organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(b)(5).) The Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 constitutes organizational or administrative activity that will not result in a physical change in the environment, and it therefore is not subject to CEQA. (Ibid.) The Zoning ordinance amendment would simply change existing allowable uses in the M-H Zone to either a category of permitted uses or conditionally permitted uses which is within the authority provided to the City Council and the Planning Commission to determine the suitability of each and every zone for the regulations applicable to it. All land uses in the M-H zone would continue to be allowable uses under this Zoning Ordinance Amendment and would not prohibit any uses, but would allow the Planning Commission and the City Council to make findings for uses that would be conditionally permitted and therefore provide sufficient and adequate safeguards and conditions 92 Item 5.
to ensure that the conditional use will be operated and maintained in a manner not detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare, or harmful to neighboring property and improvements as intended.
Even if Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 is considered a “project” subject to CEQA, it is categorically exempt pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15320 (Class 20). Class 20 consists of “changes in the organization or reorganization of local governmental agencies where the changes do not change the geographical area in which previously existing powers are exercised.
Examples include but are not limited to: (a) establishment of a subsidiary district; (b) consolidation of two or more districts having identical powers; and (c) merger with a city of a district lying entirely within the boundaries of the city.” Zone Text Amendment 2022-1132 is limited to amending Chapter 17.32 of Title 17 of the Coachella Municipal Code to clarify an existing administrative process used by the Planning Commission.
Further, the Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 is exempt from CEQA under the “common sense exemption” set forth in State CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3), which provides that an activity is not subject to CEQA “where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.” Here, as noted above, the Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 merely constitutes organizational or administrative activities that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. The Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 is thus not subject to CEQA. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15061(b)(3).)
Staff recommends that the City Council direct staff to file a Notice of Exemption for this Ordinance with the County Clerk of the Riverside in accordance with State CEQA Guidelines.
ALTERNATIVES:
1) Adopt Resolution No. PC2022-32 recommending approval of an Ordinance as presented. 2) Adopt Resolution No. PC 2022-32 recommending approval of an Ordinance with amendments.
3) Recommend denial of the ordinance.
4) Continue this item and provide staff with direction.

THE CITY COUNCIL AMENDMENTS TO COACHELLA
MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTERS 17.32.020 OF TITLE 17 (ZONING)
OF THE COACHELLA MUNICIPAL CODE TO REGULATE
HEAVY INDUSTRIAL USES WITHIN THE CITY’S M-H (HEAVY
INDUSTRIAL) ZONE. CITY INITIATED.
WHEREAS, pursuant to the authority granted to the City of Coachella (“City”) by Article XI, Section 7 of the California Constitution, the City has the police power to regulate the use of land and property within the City in a manner designed to promote public convenience and general prosperity, as well as public health, welfare, and safety; and,
WHEREAS, adoption and enforcement of comprehensive zoning regulations and business license regulations lies within the City’s police power; and, WHEREAS, the Coachella Zoning Ordinance currently allows heavy industrial uses in the M-H (Heavy Manufacturing) having community-wide impacts without any discretionary reviews and this has resulted in environmental effects to areas outside of the project boundaries of heavy industrial sites in the M-H zone, which is not in keeping with the City’s General Plan goals and policies; and,
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission believes that the regulation of heavy industrial uses merit additional scrutiny and consideration by the Planning Commission in order to impose reasonable land use conditions of approval upon these uses, the City Council finds that this will provide the added scrutiny needed to address the negative impacts posed by these conditional uses; and,
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission conducted a properly noticed public hearing on September 21, 2022 at which members of the public were afforded an opportunity to comment upon this Ordinance, the recommendations of staff and public testimony; and,
WHEREAS, the proposed Ordinance would amend Title 17 (Zoning) of the Coachella Municipal Code to regulate heavy industrial uses within the M-H Heavy Industrial Zone; and,
WHEREAS, the subject Municipal Code Amendment is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), and 15061(b)(3). The activity is not subject to CEQA because it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment; the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378 of the California Public Resources Code, and the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects, which have the potential for causing a significant impact on the environment. Where it can 94 Item 5.

Based on the entire record before the Planning Commission, all written and oral evidence presented to the Planning Commission, and the findings made in the staff report and this Resolution, the Planning Commission of the City of Coachella hereby recommends that the City Council adopt an Ordinance entitled: “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
COACHELLA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING SUBSECTION (A) AND (C) OF SECTION 17.32.020 OF TITLE 17 (ZONING) OF THE COACHELLA MUNICIPAL CODE TO REGULATE HEAVY INDUSTRIAL USES WITHIN THE CITY’S M-H (HEAVY INDUSTRIAL) ZONE.

SECTION 3. Findings. The Planning Commission finds that the amendments to the Coachella Municipal Code proposed by the above referenced ordinance are consistent with the goals and policies of all elements of the General Plan and exercise the City’s land use powers to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the public which would be put at risk if heavy industrial activity lacks the proper local regulation and enforcement abilities.
The Planning Commission also finds that the proposed amendments to the Coachella Municipal Code would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City in that they will regulate M-H heavy industrial zone land use, by allowing uses as either permitted or conditionally permitted uses.
The Planning Commission also finds that the proposed amendments to the Coachella Municipal Code are internally consistent with other applicable provisions of this Zoning Code, in that heavy industrial activities would be subject to the specified M-H heavy industrial zoning.
SECTION 4. CEQA. The Planning Commission finds that this Resolution is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Section 15060(c)(2) of the State’s CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3), as the action will not result in either a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and Section 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, as the action is not a project as defined in Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly 95 Item 5.

WHEREAS, the Coachella Zoning Ordinance currently allows heavy industrial uses in the M-H (Heavy Manufacturing having community-wide impacts without any discretionary reviews and this has resulted in environmental effects to area outside of the project boundaries of heavy industrial sites in the M-H zone which is not in keeping with the City’s General Plan goals and policies; and,

NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COACHELLA, CALIFORNIA, DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 2. Effective Date. This ordinance shall take effect thirty (30) days after its adoption.
SECTION 3. Severability. If any section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance, or any part thereof is for any reason held to be unconstitutional, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portion of this ordinance or any part thereof. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed each section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase be declared unconstitutional.
SECTION 4. Certification. The City Clerk shall certify the passage of this ordinance and shall cause the same to be entered in the book of original ordinances of said City; shall make a minute passage and adoption thereof in the records of the meeting at which time the same is passed and adopted; and shall, within fifteen (15) days after the passage and adoption thereof, cause the same to be published as required by law, in a local newspaper of general circulation and which is hereby designated for that purpose.
SECTION 5. CEQA. The City Council finds that this Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it does not qualify as a “project” under CEQA. The State CEQA Guidelines provide that “[a]n activity is not subject to CEQA if … the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15060(c).) Here, Zone Text Amendment 2022-1132 does not qualify as a “project” as defined in State CEQA Guidelines section 15378 for at least two different reasons.
First, Section 15378 defines a project as an activity that “has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(a).) Here, Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 will not result in any construction or development, and it will not have any effect that would physically change the environment. Accordingly, the Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 is not a “project” subject to CEQA. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15060(c).) Any future proposed uses within existing development in the M-H Zone would be subject to the requirements of the M-H Zone and those uses that require Conditional Use Permit would be subject to any review requirements under CEQA and supported by written findings. Any future development in the M-H Zone conjunction with planned uses are subject to review under CEQA regardless if uses are permitted by right or conditionally permitted. The City Council authority, pursuant to C.M.C. Section 17.02.030, is for the careful consideration to the suitability of each and every zone for the regulations applicable to it, and that these regulations are found to best serve the above purposes. The City Council further finds that the Zoning regulations are in the public interest, and that due and careful consideration has been given to the relationship between these regulations and the general plan of the City, and the established plans in the unincorporated area of the County of Riverside. The Planning Commission pursuant to C.MC. Section
17.70.020 shall advise and recommend to the city council with respect jurisdiction over amendment to change the text of the Zoning ordinance.
100
Item 5.
Ordinance No. ___
Second, Section 15378 explicitly excludes from its definition of “project” the following:
“organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(b)(5).) The Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 constitutes organizational or administrative activity that will not result in a physical change in the environment, and it therefore is not subject to CEQA. (Ibid.) The Zoning ordinance amendment would simply change existing allowable uses in the M-H Zone to either a category of permitted uses or conditionally permitted uses which is within the authority provided to the City Council and the Planning Commission to determine the suitability of each and every zone for the regulations applicable to it. All land uses in the M-H zone would continue to be allowable uses under this Zoning Ordinance Amendment and would not prohibit any uses, but would allow the Planning Commission and the City Council to make findings for uses that would be conditionally permitted and therefore provide sufficient and adequate safeguards and conditions to ensure that the conditional use will be operated and maintained in a manner not detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare, or harmful to neighboring property and improvements as intended.
Even if Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 is considered a “project” subject to CEQA, it is categorically exempt pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15320 (Class 20). Class 20 consists of “changes in the organization or reorganization of local governmental agencies where the changes do not change the geographical area in which previously existing powers are exercised. Examples include but are not limited to: (a) establishment of a subsidiary district; (b) consolidation of two or more districts having identical powers; and (c) merger with a city of a district lying entirely within the boundaries of the city.” Zone Text Amendment 2022-1132 is limited to amending Chapter 17.32 of Title 17 of the Coachella Municipal Code to clarify an existing administrative process used by the Planning Commission.
Further, the Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 is exempt from CEQA under the “common sense exemption” set forth in State CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3), which provides that an activity is not subject to CEQA “where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.” Here, as noted above, the Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 merely constitutes organizational or administrative activities that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. The Zone Ordinance Amendment No. 2022-07 is thus not subject to CEQA. (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15061(b)(3).)
