SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM NO. 11.C
FIRST AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT FOR THE FOOD PANTRY
LOCATED AT 56 26 MISSION BOULEVARD WITH UNITED SIKH
MISSION
RECOMMENDATION
1) That the City Council ap prove the First Amendment between the City of Jurupa Valley and United Sikh Mission to install, maintain and repair kitchen equipment and authorize the City Manager to execute the First Agreement in substantially the form and format attached and as approved by the City Attorney.
BACKGROUND
On May 21, 2020, the Council approved th e acquisition of a building 5626 Mission Boulevard from the County of Riverside and legally took possession on July 1, 2020.
Although there was no purchase cost to the City, the City was responsible for the ongoing costs associated with maintaining the facility.
As Covid-19 restrictions began to loosen in the spring of 2021, the City Council directed staff to begin meeting with local non -profit organizations in an effort to determine what types of uses are most needed in the community. Staff met with several local non-profit and governmental organizations over the next few months including the Jurupa Valley Unified School District, Jurupa Area Recreation and Park District, Reach Out / Healthy Jurupa Valley, First Five Riverside, Riverside County Parks and Open Space District, Jurupa Mountains Discovery Center, United Sikh Mission (USM) and Jurupa Valley Boxing Club.
On September 16, 2021, City Council directed staff to negotiate exclusively with the United Sikh Mission to operate a food distribution and pantry at 5625 Mission Blvd.
RETURN TO AGENDA
Page | 2
At the start of the global pandemic, members of the Sikh community from the Jurupa Valley Temple took immediate action to alleviate the need for food distribution to those in the community who were suffering economically. What started out as an operation serving approximately 175 meals daily outside of the temple grew into a significant project that provided as many as 40,000 meals per week. During those months, residents thanked and praised the efforts of the Sikh community, voicing their concerns about the need for a food pantry in the heart of the City of Jurupa Valley.
In recognition of the unmet need in the community and in the interest of developing a long- range plan to feed the hungry , the USM began to discuss the possibility of a permanent food bank for the residents of Jurupa Valley. According to the USM the City facility is an ideal location for a USM food bank because of its proximity to the Sikh Gurdwara temple, which has been a valued community organization since 1985.
The USM is a philanthropic charitable organization incorporated in Southern California and also in Punjab, India since 2005 for the purposes of Human and Environmental Welfare.
In addition to food distribution, the United Sikh Mission ha s helped more than 200,000 people receive quality eye care serv ices. The eye care service consists of more than 25,000 eye surgeries and 140,000 pairs of glasses. It is their desire to begin with a food pantry and then possibly grow their services with eye care, medical services, clothing donations and youth services.
On October 21, 2021 the City Council approved a contract with the USM to operate a food pantry. They have plans to serve at least 500 hot meals per month directly to those in need and also provide food through 10 additional food pantries who will pick up food for their own distributions centers each week.
ANALYSIS
In January 2022, City Staff began developing recommendations to be considered by the City Council for the expenditure of unspent funding in the Community Development Block Grant COVID-19 (CDBG-CV3) program. This CDBG-CV3 funding has strict requirements, and must be used to mitigate the effects of COVID -19. Any unspent CDBG funds at the local level are returned to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. One available option approved by Council, was to purchase kitchen equipmen t for the new food bank. A kitchen allows the USM to store food safely and to cook and serve hot meals and to those who are impacted by the pandemic as well as for any family who is experiencing food insecurities. On March 17, 2022, the City Council awarded the CDBG- CV3 funding to purchase the kitchen equipment for the food pantry.
The kitchen equipment will be owned by the City for the life of the appliances. This agreement allows the City to purchase the kitchen equipment with these grant funds. The USM will be responsible for the costs of installation, maintenance, repair, and any utility costs associated with the kitchen equipment.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The City’s CDBG-CV3 allocation provides $50,000 for the purchase of kitchen equipment.

an assessment district formed under the Act and to levy assessments within such territory.
In connection with the City’s incorporation in 2011, the Local Agency Formation Commission of Riverside County (LAFCO) adopted its Resolution No. 12 -10 on July 22, 2010, to establish the Terms and Conditions of Incorporation, which require that the authority and responsibility for special assessment districts within the incorporated City associated with a ny County Landscape Maintenance District be transferred to the City upon its incorporation.
By its Resolution No. 2011-26, adopted on July 1, 2011, the City Council assumed all authority and responsibility for the special assessment districts within the i ncorporated City associated with any County Landscape Maintenance District and specifically assumed responsibility for any and all special assessments levied in connection with such districts.
The County’s Landscape and Lighting Maintenance District No. 8 9-1-Consolidated (the “County District”), established pursuant to the provisions of the Act includes various territories located both within the incorporated boundaries of the City (the “City Territory”) and outside the incorporated boundaries of the City (the “County Territory”). Pursuant to its Resolution No. 2016-01 adopted on February 4, 2016, the City declared that the City Territory is a district under the 1972 Act, which is separate and distinct from the County Territory, and designated such territor y as the “Jurupa Valley Landscape and Lighting Maintenance District No. 89-1-Consolidated.”
At its March 17, 2022 meeting, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-16 initiating proceedings for the annexation of territory to the Jurupa Valley Landscap e and Lighting Maintenance District No. 89 -1-Consolidated (the “District”) as Zone Y and the levy and collection of assessments within such territory. Zone Y currently includes three assessable parcels, generally located on the south side of Market Street west of Hall Avenue and north of 24th Street.
Further, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-18 declaring its intention to annex territory to the District and to levy and collect assessments with in such territory for fiscal year 2022-2023. Resolution No. 2022-77 set May 5, 2022 as the public hearing date for protests to the levy of annual assessments and the annexation.
Subsequent to the March 17, 2022 meeting and in accordance with the Act and Proposition 218, notice was mailed to the owners o f the properties within the territory to be annexed, along with an assessment ballot for such owners to indicate support for, or opposition to, the proposed annexation. The notice indicated the amount of the proposed assessment for their respective parcels and the date, time and place of the public hearing.
Page | 3
ANALYSIS
It is proposed to include the additional parcels within the boundaries of the District and to levy assessments within such territory for fiscal year 2022-2023. Such territory is shown on a map on file in the office of the City Clerk and is open to public inspection.
At the public hearing, the City Council must hear and consider all oral and written statements, protests, objections or other communications made or filed with respect to the annexation of territory to the District and the levy and collection of annual assessments within such territory.
The assessment ballots must be tabulated at the public hearing. A majority protest exists if ballots submitted in opposition to the assessment and annexation exceed the ballots submitted in favor of the assessment and annexation. In tabulating the ballots, the ballots shall be weighted according to the proportional financial obligation of the affected property. In the absence of a majority protest, the City Council may adopt a resolution ordering the annexation and levy and collection of assessments within the territory.
OTHER INFORMATION
City Council initiated proceedings for the annexation on March 17, 2022.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The property owners are responsible for the annual payments of the special assessment.
The City will file the special assessment with the County Auditor-Controller for collection via the annual property tax bills . The property owners have posted a deposit with their application to form Zone Y, in order to cover City costs incurred in connection with the annexation. Approval of this resolution does not in any way com mit the City to any financial contribution or liability for the Zone Y. The City’s cost to administer Zone Y annually will be reimbursed through the special assessment charged to property owners.
The fiscal year 2022-2023 (base year) maximum assessment for landscape maintenance and street lighting for each parcel is $6,200 and is subject to escalation beginning in FY 2023-2024 to account for reasonable increase cost for maintenance and inflation.
The revenue from this special assessment will be deposited into City of Jurupa Valley L&LMD 89-1-C and will be used to pay for the services provided in Zone Y. Both the revenue and expenses will be part of the City’s FY 2022-2023 Adopted Budget, and there is no anticipated impact to the General Fund.
CONCLUSION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2022 -38, ordering annexation of territory to the District and the levy and collect assessments with in such territory for fiscal year 2022-2023.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Applicant (“Applicant” or “Control Management, Inc.”) requests approval of a one (1) year Extension of Time (EOT) to the approved Site Development Permit and Conditional Use Permit for the approved construction of a 90,262 square foot commercial center (“Van Buren Marketplace”) on approximately 15.9 acres of real property.

According to the applicant, t he request for Extension of Time is due to the unexpected impacts of the C ovid-19 pandemic that caused multiple prospective tenants of this site to become or remain uncommitted to a lease . The Applicant stated that without committed lessees, development of the project was nonviable. For this reason, the Applicant could not begin construction. Table 3 presents the details of the approval date and expiration dates. No changes to the project are proposed with this Extension of Time applications.

ANALYSIS
The Conditional Use Permit (CUP) and Site Development Permit (SDP) are set to expire on April 22, 2022. On March 3, 2022, the Applicant submitted applications for Extensions of Time (EOT) prior to the expiration date. Approval of the EOT applications would extend the approval periods for one (1) year to April 22, 2023. The approval of this extension of time would extend the approval period of CUP to the maximum period of three (3) years.
The zoning code allows the approval period of a SDP to be a maximum period of five (5) years.
Section 9.240.280(5) of the Jurupa Valley Municipal Code requires that a CUP be used within one (1) year of the effective date or within such additional time as may be set in the Conditions of Approval which shall not exceed a total of three (3) years, otherwise the permit shall be null and void. Per Condition of Approval No. 8 of MA19041, Conditional Use Permit No. 19003 shall be used within tw o (2) years of the April 22, 2020 approval date. Prior to the expiration date, the applicant may request an extension of time in which to use the permit.
Section 99.240.330(7) of the Jurupa Valley Municipal Code, requires that a Site Development Permit be used within two (2) year s of the effective date or within such additional time as may be set in the Conditions of Approval which shall not exceed a total of five (5) years. Per Condition of Approval No. 9 of MA19041, the Site Development Permit shall be used within two (2) years of the April 22, 2020 approval date. Prior to the expiration, the applicant may request an extension of time in which to use the Site Development Permit.
An Extension of Time for a Conditional Use Permit and a Site Development Permit may be granted upon determination that valid reason exists for the applicant not using the site development permit within the required period of time. The Applicant submitted a letter explaining that the impacts of Covid -19 pandemic halted their timing for construction. In summary, because of a volatile economy and closing of businesses, prospective tenants became uncertain of their involvement with this project resulting in multiple t enants backing out which created a delay in development. At this time with the improvement of the economy, there are commitments for the anchor grocery store, two drive -thru restaurants, and the convenience store with the gas station. There are more commitments for other retail spaces that are under negotiation. Currently, the applicant has pending street improvement plans, mass grading plan, and precise grading plans that are under review. Thus, the applicant is confident that the center will be under construction this year.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
A Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project was adopted by the Planning Commission on April 22, 2020. The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) allows a previously adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) to be used as the environmental assessment for a project (including a request for an extension of time) if it is determined

Section 5. California Environmental Quality Act Findings. The City Council of the City of Jurupa Valley does hereby make the following environmental findings and determinations in connection with the approval of the Project:
(a) Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) (Cal. Pub.
Res. Code §21000 et seq.) and the State Guidelines (the “Guidelines”) (14 Cal. Code Regs. §15000 et seq.), City staff has considered the potential environmental impacts of the Extensi on of Time for Conditional Use Permit No. 19003 and the Extension of Time for Site Development Permit No. 20010. City staff has also reviewed the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (“MND”) prepared for Conditional Use Permit No. 19003 and Site Development Permit No. 20010, and adopted by the Planning Commission on April 22, 2020, including the impacts and mitigation measures identified therein and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) adopted by the Planning Commission on April 22, 2020 , and prepared a Previous Environmental Document Review Determination in accordance with CEQA for the Project. Based on that review, the City of Jurupa Valley Planning Department has determined that the Project and the circumstances under which the Project is undertaken do not involve substantial changes which will result in new significant environmental effects, and that the Project does not involve new information of substantial importance which shows that the Project will have significant eff ects not discussed in the prior MND. All potential environmental impacts associated with Conditional -4-
Use Permit No. 19003 and Site Development Permit No. 20010, and the Extensions of Time for Conditional Use Permit No. 19003 and Site Development Permit No . 20010, are adequately addressed by the prior MND, and the mitigation measures contained in the prior MND and MMRP will reduce those impacts to a level that is less than significant. (b) The City Council has independently reviewed the Previous Environmental Document Review Determination , and based upon the whole record before it, the Previous Environmental Document Review Determination, and its independent review and judgment, finds that that the Project, as modified, is not subject to further environmental review pursuant to the Guidelines because:
1) The Project and the circumstances under which the Project is undertaken do not involve substantial changes which will result in new significant environmental effects, and that the Project does not involve new information of substantial importance which shows that the Project will have significant effects not discussed in the prior MND; and 2) All potential environmental impacts associated with Conditional Use Permit No. 19003 and Site Development Permit No. 20010, and the Extensions of Time for Conditional Use Permit No. 19003 and Site Development Permit No. 20010 are adequately addressed by the prior MND, and the mitigation measures contained in the prior MND and MMRP will reduce those impacts to a level that is less than significant. (c) The custodian of records for the prior MND, and all other materials that constitute the record of proceedings up on which the City Council’s recommendation is based, is the Planning Department of the City of Jurupa Valley. Those documents are available for public review in the Planning Department located at 8930 Limonite Avenue, Jurupa Valley, California 92509.
Section 6. Findings for Approval of Extension of Time for Conditional Use Permit No. 19003. The City Council of the City of Jurupa Valley does hereby find, determine, and declare that the proposed Extension of Time for Conditional Use Permit No. 19003 should be granted because the Applicant has demonstrated the following valid reason s for the Applicant not using the permit within the initially approved two (2) year period of time:
(a) Unexpected impacts of the COVID -19 pandemic , including a volatile economy and business closures, have caused multiple prospective tenants for the Project to become uncommitted or completely back out from the Project. The development of the Project was nonviable without committed lessees. For that reason, the Applicant could not begin construction within the initially approved two (2) year period of time.
Section 7. Findings for Approval of Extension of Time for Site Development Permit No. 20010. The City Council of the City of Jurupa Valley does hereby find, determine , and declare that the proposed Extension of Time for Site Development Permit No. 20010 should be granted because the Applicant has demonstrated the following valid reasons for the Applicant not using the permit within the initially approved two (2) year period of time:
(a) Unexpected impacts of the COVID -19 pandemic , including a volatile economy and business closures, have caused multiple prospective tenants for the Project to become -5-
uncommitted or completely back out from the Project. The development of the Project was nonviable without committed lessees. For that reason, the Applicant could not begin construction within the initially approved two (2) year period of time.
Section 8. Approval of Master Application No. 22043, with Conditions. Based on the foregoing, the City Council of the City of Jurupa Valley hereby approves a one year Extension of Time for Conditional Use Permit No. 19003 and a one year Extension of Time for Site Development Permit No. 20010 (Master Application No. 22043 or MA No. 22043) to permit the phased const ruction of a 90,262 square -foot commercial center (“Van Buren Marketplace”), including a proposed gasoline service station with concurrent sale of beer and wine for off -site consumption, a proposed convenience store, including the sale of motor vehicle fue l, and a proposed car wash, on approximately 15.9 acres of real property located at the southeast corner of Van Buren Boulevard and Rutile Street (APNs: 167-330-006, -010, -015; and 167-110-039) in the Scenic Highway Commercial (C -P-S) Zone and designated Commercial Retail (CR) with an Equestrian Lifestyle Protection (ELO) General Plan overlay , subject to the recommended conditions of approval attached hereto as Exhibit “A .” Conditional Use Permit No. 19003 and Site Development Permit No. 20010 shall expire on April 22, 2023.

REQUIRED ENTITLEMENTS
Per the City’s Municipal Code, Title 9 (Planning and Zoning), Chapter 9.125 (C-P-S) Zone, Section
9.125.020 (Uses Permitted), gasoline service stations, with the concurrent sale of beer and wine for off-premises consumption and convenience stores, including the sale of motor vehicle fuel, are permitted uses subject to the approval of a Conditional Use Permit (CUP).
Additionally, the sale of alcoholic beverages for off -premises consumption within a C-P-S zone shall comply with Sec tion 9.240.490, Alcoholic Beverage Sales. Since the proposed off-sale license is not located within an over concentrated census tract, the City does not need to make the findings for a Public Convenience or Necessity (PCN).
Finally, the commercial retail and restaurant development are permitted uses subject to the approval of a Site Development Permit (SDP) pursuant to Section 9.240.330.
SITE DEVELOPMENT
The project is proposed in two (2) Phases: Phase 1 will include the development of the gas station, convenience store and car wash, and will also include the 38,000 square foot anchor market and 7,650 square foot full-service restaurant (Building 5). Phase 1 also includes all off-site public right -of-way and street improvements , including signalization and on -site parking, landscaping, decomposed granite (dg) trail and equestrian fencing. Phase 2 is for the future development of the remaining commercial structures and two (2) drive-thru restaurants see Exhibit 6.

Site Layout
The site has been designed to minimize any impacts to the adjacent single-family residential land uses. The placement of the car wash, vacuum equipment, gas station and convenience store are located as far away from any sensitive residential land uses as possible to reduce any potential noise impacts. As analyzed in the Noise Study prepared for this project and within the Noise Section of the Initial Study, residential uses are located more than 200 feet from Rutile Street and 500 feet to the south o f the proposed car wash. Additionally, the two drive -thru restaurants (Buildings 1 and 2) are located between 200 and 500 feet from the nearest home and are located approximately 24 feet from the front property line along Van Buren Boulevard. Based on the analysis described in the Noise Section and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) incorporated within the Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND), the project contains mitigation measures which effectively reduce any potential noise impacts to a “Less than Significant Impact”, see Exhibit A of Attachment 1.
The entrance areas to Buildings 3 through 8 are located facing the interior parking lot area, away from the residential land uses. There is also a proposed 20-foot landscaped setback area with Afghan pine trees planted 25 feet on center, along with an eight (8) foot high split face wall, along the entire southern property line. Additionally, the center proposes a 10-foot wide equestrian trail easement with 42-inch high equestrian fencing along the western property line and an equestrian hitching post area with decomposed granite to complement the existing Equestrian Lifestyle Protection Overlay (ELO).,See the General Plan section of this report for further details.
Site Access and Circulation
Access to the site will be provided via two (2) proposed driveways:
• A 55-foot wide driveway along Van Buren Boulevard includes a new signalized full-turn traffic signal; and
• A 40-foot wide driveway is proposed along the rear of the commercial center along Rutile Street.
Page | 18
Both driveways will feature stamped and stained concrete entries . Staff is recommending a condition to require reciprocal access and parking. The site contains adequate traffic circulation as determined by the Jurupa Valley Municipal Code (JVMC) and the City’s Traffic Engineer.
Furthermore, staff circulated the development plans to various internal City departments and external agencies for comment and recommended conditions. Comments from the departments and agencies have been considered and incorporated as modifications and/or conditions to this project as deemed appropriate by Planning staff, including a condition to limit the delivery of fuel to this location during “off-peak” business hours.
Architectural Style
The site is located within the eastern Mira Loma community and is primarily surrounded by single- family residential land uses. As there are existing trails within the area, the community has a rural, equestrian character. The project therefore features design elements which create a Farm style architectural theme. The development features various building materials typically associated with farm style architecture such as corrugated metal roofing, hardiplank and shiplap siding and trimming, stone veneering, and decorative barnlike lighting fixtures. The project includes rusted red, beige and other earth tone colors to complement the farm -style architectural theme . See Colored Elevations within the Architectural Plans Attachment.
The vacuum area near the ca r wash features trellis structures to provide shading within the parking area. The development also includes several trash enclosure units . One (1) trash enclosure unit serving each primary building throughout the site. The enclosure units will contain color stucco, vinyl coated aluminum trellis and wrought iron doors with opaque screening to match the new development and they are in compliance with City standards.
The site will contain ample parking lot lighting and building mounted lighting of sufficient coverage as shown the Photometric Plan. Lighting fixtures shall be consistent with the architectural theme, as shown on the colors and materials sheet. As demonstrated in the previous section, the development meets the zoning code parking requirement s per Section 9.120.240 (Off-Street Vehicle Parking).
Landscaping and Walls
The Conceptual Landscape Plan features a variety of 24 -inch box shade trees, large screen shrubs, a variety of groundcovers and colorful plant materials to accent the site with an overall coverage area of 23.75%. Additionally, a minimum of 50% of the parking area will be shaded by tree canopies. Exhibit 7 depicts the proposed 20-foot landscaped setback area and eight (8) foot high wall along the entire southern property line.
The plan was reviewed by the City’s Landscape Architect who approved the concept plan. Formal landscape and irrigation plans will be subject to final review and approval by the City’s Landscape Architect. The Conceptual Landscape Plan is provided under Attachment 5 (Sheets L1 thru L4).
As part of Phase 1, landscaping along the entire site perimeter, including the entire sou thern property line and landscaping directly related to those buildings within Phase 1, shall be installed prior to the issuance of final occupancy of the first building within Phase 1. The remainder of the interior landscaping shall be completed during the development of Phase 2.
Page | 18
EXHIBIT 7: SOUTH PROPERTY LINE SECTION
Split face walls with decorative caps and pilasters are proposed along a portion of the western and entire southern property lines. The entire length of the wall will be eight (8) feet in height along the southern property line and six (6) feet in height solid split face wall with wrought iron and pilasters along the entire western side of the property. See Attachment 5 (Sheet WP1). Staff has recommended a condition to require all walls to have an anti-graffiti coating.
Signage
The staff has recommended a condition of approval to require the applicant to submit a M aster Sign Program for the commercial center to ensure the signs are compatible and consistent with the overall architecture of the center . It must be approved prior to the issuance of first building permit of the center.
On-Site Utility and Drainage Improvements
Water and sewer service to the project site will be provided by the Jurupa Community Services District (JCSD). The project will connect to an existing 10-inch diameter water line in Rutile Street.
Sewer service is available for the p roject from an existing 8-inch diameter sewer line at the intersection of Rutile Street and Woodbridge Lane.
Development of the project will increase impervious surface coverage on the site and increase surface runoff. Surface run off, however, will be directed to the water qu ality infiltration basin proposed to be located on the south east end of the site before discharging in the storm drain system located beneath the roadways.
Public Right-of-Way Improvements
The project requires public right-of-way (ROW) dedication to accommodate 81 feet from the median centerline to the property line along the entire project frontage on Van Buren Boulevard.
ROW parkway improvements along Van Buren Boulevard include, but are not limited to , a new six (6) foot wide sidewalk, curb adjacent landscaping, and curb and gutter.
Page | 18
Proposed parkway landscaping will serve as a safety buffer between moving vehicles and pedestrians It will also provide a shaded and continuously level pathway for pedestrians, thereby increasing aesthetic value of the area.
Along Rutile Street, there is an existing six (6) foot wide sidewalk adjacent to curb and gutter which extends through the midpoint of the subject site. I mprovements will therefore include a transition from the existing sidewalk to a new six (6) foot wide sidewalk adjacent to curb and gutter and a six (6) foot wide landscaped parkway adjacent to property line.
Staff is recommending a condition to require a a Commercial/Industrial Landscape Maintenance Agreement for the continual maintenance of the landscaping in the public right -of-way. See Exhibits 8 and 9 for a view of the street sections.
EXHIBIT 8: VAN BUREN BLVD. STREET SECTION
EXHIBIT 9: RUTILE STREET SECTION
ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE SALES
The sale of alcoholic beverages for off -premise consumption is allowed within the C -P-S zone with an approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP). The property is within census tract 404.03 (Exhibit 10). According to the Alcohol Beverage Control Board (ABC), thr ee (3) off-sale alcohol licenses are permitted within this census tract. There are two (2) existing off-sale licenses (shown
Page | 18
as yellow circles on Exhibit 10), and the proposed Type 20 (beer and wine) license would result in three (3) licenses. As of April 7, 2020, the following locations held active off-sale licenses within census tract 404.03:
• Perez Market at 9790 Jurupa Road – Type 20; and
• Jurupa Dairy at 9775 Jurupa Road – Type 20
In addition to reviewing the project based on the maximum number of licenses permitted within this census tract, staff considered existing businesses that sell alcoholic beverages for off -site consumption in adjacent census tracts. The closest businesses that sell alcoholic beverages for off-site consumption are the Stater Brothers grocery store and Plaza Liquor.
The convenience store will offer ancillary food sales such as coffee, prepackaged and prepared pastries, candies, soft drinks, beer, wine, etc. typically offered at convenience stores. The facility will provid e vehicle fuel through twelve ( 12) fueling dispensers located under the proposed canopy.
The store and fueling hours are proposed at 24 hours per day, seven (7) days a week, with alcohol sales for off-site consumption between the hours of 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. as permitted by the State Alcohol Beverage Control Board. The Applicant indicates that there will be at least three (3) employees at the store.
EXHIBIT 10: EXISTING OFF-SALE LOCATIONS ON CENSUS TRACT MAP
Comments from Sheriff’s Department. The Sheriff’s Department has reviewed and considered the proposed sale of beer and wine at the proposed convenience store. The Sheriff’s Department does not consider the project location to be in a high crime area and ha s no concerns with the proposed off-site alcohol sales.
The Sheriff’s Department typically provides the following comments for beer and wine applications:
a. Limit alcohol sales to packages containing no less than 6 cans or bottles to a case. b. Prohibit the sales of single cans or bottles less than or equal to 40 ounces.
Page | 18
c. The placement of alcoholic beverages must be stored in the back of the store or behind the sales counter.
d. The owner must immediately remove any loiterers. If the owner does not immediately remove any loiterers, the Sheriff’s Department will remove the loiterer and the approval for the sales of alcoholic beverages may be subject to revocation. e. Digital security cameras should be installed and used for monitoring activity on the property.
f. An alarm system should be installed and used especially at the entrances.
The proposed alcohol display area is consistent with the Sheriff’s Department’s recommendation.
Beer and wine products will be located within a section of the refrigerator cooler. Of the 10 overall cooler doors, one (1) door will be devoted to beer and wine products, measuring approximately 127 square feet . In addition, the Applicant prop oses to store 12 and 24 pack cases of non - refrigerated beer, averaging 24 square feet near the dry foods rack, located more than 15 feet away from the store entrance. Per the Sheriff’s Department recommendation , however, staff recommends a condition that would require any alcoholic beverages to be moved to the back of the store and away from the main entrance. Overall, alcohol display area represents 5.6% of the overall store floor area. See Exhibit 11 below.

GENERAL PLAN
The General Plan land use designation is Commercial Retail (CR) which allows for commercial development. The project has been reviewed and evaluated for consistency with the City’s General Plan policies that apply to this project. The following four policies relating to design, infrastructure, and mitigation of potential impacts apply to this project:
LU 23.3: Site buildings along sidewalks, pedestrian areas, and bicycle routes and include amenities that encourage pedestrian activity.
Project: The development has been designed so that Building 1 and Building 2 are oriented towards the public right-of-way along the Van Buren Boulevard frontage. Additionally, Buildings 3 through 8 are located so that they are conveniently accessible to pedestrians who reside within walking distance from this future neighborhood retail center.
The development also includes a 10-foot wide equestrian trail with split rail vinyl fencing and public right-of-way improvements along Rutile Street which further provides connectivity for pedestrians,
Page | 18
equestrian riders, and bicyclists. In addition, the development features an on -site sidewalk connecting the public sidewalk along both Van Buren Blvd. and Rutile Street for easy access to the commercial center. These features encourage pedestrian activity.
With the proposed on and off -site required improvements and connectivity, the pr oject layout is consistent with similar commercial developments within the area. As such, staff believes that the intent of policy LU 23.3 has been met.
LU 23.5: Concentrate commercial uses near transportation facilities and high density residential areas and require the incorporation of facilities to promote the use of public transit, such as bus turnouts.
Project: The Riverside Transit Authority (RTA) will not require a bus stop at this location, as there is currently no route running on Van Buren Blvd. The closest active bus stops are on Van Buren Blvd. and Jurupa Road, with service running on Jurupa R oad. The project will provide for ADA compliant walkways connected to ADA compliant public sidewalks. Thus, the project will be ready to serve future bus stop facilities w hen RTA service does become available closer to this project,
LU 23.6: Require that commercial projects abutting residential properties protect the residential use from the impacts of noise, light, fumes, odors, vehicular traffic, parking, and operational hazards.
Project: Residential properties are located to the west and south of the project site. To buffer the use from residences to the west and south of project site, the project provides the following:
• Westerly property line : A proposed six (6) foot high decorative solid wall with on -site landscaping will be constructed up to the proposed driveway along Rutile Street, after which the project includes a six -foot-high wrought iron fence with dense landscaped setback area.
• Southerly property line: An eight (8) foot high decorative masonry wall and a 20 foot wide dense landscaped area.
Additionally, the Mitigation Monitoring Reporting Program (MMRP) provides mitigation measures to reduce potential impacts such as, but not limited to, noise, air pollution, traffic, etc. to levels of non-significance.
LU 23.7: Require that adequate and available circulation facilities, water resources, and sewer facilities exist to meet the demands of the proposed land use.
Project: Recommended condition would require dedication on Van Buren Boulevard to accommodate widening and full improvements per City Engineering standards. Water and sewer service to the project site will be provided by the Jurupa Community Services District (JCSD).
LU 23.9: Require that commercial development be designed to consider their surroundings and visually enhance, not degrade the character of the surrounding area.
The architecture of the project has been deemed to be consistent with the predominately rural/equestrian lifestyle of the Mira Loma community and densely landscaped parkways will enhance the character of the surrounding area. Restricting hours of alcoholic beverage sales and other alcohol related restrictions, as well as limiting hours of deliveries also promote compatibility.
Page | 18
EXHIBIT 12: GENERAL PLAN MOBILITY ELEMENT – EQUESTRIAN TRAIL ROUTES
EQUESTRIAN LIFESTYLE PROTECTION OVERLAY
The project site is located within the Equestrian Lifestyle Protection Overlay (ELO). Equestrian uses are commonplace in certain areas of the City and the purpose of the following policies is to protect the equestrian character of the areas throughout the City:
Policies:
LUE 5.3 Land Use Compatibility: New land use entitlement applications, whether for residential, commercial, industrial, or institutional uses, shall be designed such that there will be no interference with surrounding equestrian neighborhoods.
The project does not present any obstacle or interference with the surrounding equestrian neighborhoods.
LUE 5.1.6 Hitching Posts: Require that within the Overlay, new development shall install hitching posts and related facilities to allow safe short -term equestrian “parking” and to create a design statement that the area encourages equestrian uses.
The project provides hitching posts conveniently located to provide direct access from the trail to the shopping center.
Subject
Site
Page | 18
Proposed Equestrian Trail
While there is no General Plan requirement to construct a trail along the east side of Rutile Street, the project has been designed to include a trail along the east side of Rutile Street. It is proposed as an equestrian amenity providing connectivity from the proposed commercial center to adjacent equestrian neighborhoods and to the existing Arabella Ranch Community Trail.
The 10-foot decomposed granite (dg) trail with 42 -inch high vinyl trail fencing is designed per JARPD standards. This new equestrian amenity trail is proposed from the southwest corner of the proj ect site, within the shopping center western boundary along Rutile Street up to the northeast corner of the site at Galena and Van Buren. Additionally, the project provides hitching posts conveniently located to provide direct access from the trail to the shopping center.
Overall, the project is consistent with the goals and policies of the CR land use designation.
EXHIBIT 13: JARPD TRAILS MAP
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL OF A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT (CUP) Per Section 9.240.280.(4), “a Conditional Use Permit shall not be granted unless the applicant demonstrates that the proposed use will not be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of the community. Any permit that is granted shall be subject to such conditions as shall b e necessary to protect the health, safety or general welfare of the community.” Staff has reviewed the project and determined that the proposed use meets the following required findings:
1. The proposed sale of alcoholic beverages (beer and wine) for off-site consumption will not adversely affect or be materially detrimental to the public health, safety or general welfare of the community in that the area devoted to alcohol sales would only be 5.6% of the retail floor area. Furthermore, the use is consistent w ith other similar fueling stations with convenience stores offering the sale of alcoholic beverages for off-site consumption.
2. The proposed use will not be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of the community, in that the proposed sale of b eer and wine for off -site consumption will be conducted as an ancillary use to the primary sales of prepackaged cold and hot foods, sundry items, non-alcoholic beverages and fueling for vehicles. Furthermore, the use will not pose a threat to surrounding l and uses with the recommended conditions by staff
Page | 18
(includes Riverside County Sheriff’s Department comments). Furthermore, and ABC would impose their own conditions on the ABC license,
3. The proposed use will not be detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of the community, in that the site shall be developed and conditioned to ensure that adequate dense landscaping, masonry walls, increased setbacks, restricted delivery hours and other mitigation, such as shielded lighting, are imposed to reduce impacts to adjacent land uses. As such, the project is not expected to create any significant adverse impacts from noise, odor, or light upon the community as analyzed in the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration.
Proposed Mitigation Measures include, but are not limited to:
➢ The project will be required to shield outdoor lighting to contain glaring. ➢ The project shall comply with the Air Quality Management District’s rules regulating air quality.
➢ The project will require public improvements along both Van Buren Blvd. and Rutile St. which will serve to update the project site and help improve traffic circulation per the General Plan standards.
➢ The project will require a construction related noise mitigation plan.
With the approved applicati on and required conditions of approval, the project demonstrates consistency with the General Plan and Zoning sections within the Jurupa Valley Municipal Code (JVMC) and applicable state and federal laws . Additionally, the Applicant is required to agree to the conditions of approval within 30 days of project approval by completing the signature block located at the last page of the Conditions of Approval.
FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL OF A SITE DEVELOPMENT PERMIT (SDP) Per Section 9.240.330 (3) Requirements for Approval , no Site Development Permit shall be approved unless it complies with the following standards:
(a) The proposed use must conform to all the requirements of the Jurupa Valley General Plan and with all applicable requirements of State law and the ordinances of the City.
The subject site has a General Plan Land Use Designation of Commercial Retail (CR) and is zoned C -P-S (Scenic Highway Commercial). The proposed commercial development demonstrates consistency with the General Plan and compliance with Title 9 (Planning and Zoning) of the Jurupa Valley Municipal Code.
(b) The overall development of the land shall be designed for the protect ion of the public health, safety and general welfare; to conform to the logical development of the land and to be compatible with the present and future logical development of the surrounding property. The plan shall consider the location and need for dedi cation and improvement of necessary streets and sidewalks, including the avoidance of traffic congestion; and shall take into account topographical and drainage conditions, including the need for dedication and improvements of necessary structures as a part thereof.
In order to minimize impacts to adjacent residential land uses, t he structures as proposed far away from residential, incorporates adequate landscaped buffer setbacks, and provides an eight (8) foot high masonry wall.
The proposed shopping center is compatible with the surrounding community because it will provide the necessary services and retail in this community. Furthermore, the project will enhance the community with its attractive architecture, dense landscaping, new trees, equestrian trail and decorative perimeter walls . The project will require public improvements in the form of new
Page | 18
landscaped parkway, new street lighting, curb and gutter, new sidewalk and pedestrian walkways connecting to the center. The creation of a new sidewalk along the property’s entire frontage, on Van Buren Boulevard, will enable pedestrians to safely access the shopping center. Furthermore, the site will be graded and will drain per Engineering conditions. (c) All site development permits which permit the construction of more than one structure on a single legally divided parcel shall, in addition to all other requirements, be subject to a condition which prohibits the sale of any existing or subsequently constructed structures on the parcel until the parcel is divided and a final map recorded in accordance with Title 7 in such a manner that each building is located on a separate legally divided parcel.
A condition of approval shall be included to prohibit the sale of any existing or subsequently constructed structures on the parcel until the parcel is divided per Title 7 ( Subdivisions) of the Jurupa Valley Municipal Code.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The City of Jurupa Valley has prepared and intends to a dopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) for the Project, see Attachment 1 (a) (Exhibit A). The proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration is supported by an Initial Study that evaluated potential effects with respect to Aesthetics, Agriculture and Forest Resources, Air Quality, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Geology and Soils, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Hydrology and Water Quality, Land Use and Planning, Mineral Resources, Noise, Population and Housing, Public Services, Recreation, Transportation/Traffic, and Utilities and Service Systems.
The proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration determines that although the proposed Project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because revisions in the project have been made or agreed to by the Applicant. Staff has recommended a condition which requires that all mitigation measures of the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) be incorporated into the Conditions of Approval.
Public Review Period. The public comment period for the MND began on March 28, 2020 and ended on April 16, 2020 . To date, no comments have been received. The Mitigated Negative Declaration and MMRP are available at Jurupa Valley City Hall and on the City’s website.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
The Planning Department mailed notices to surrounding property owners within a 1,000 foot from the boundaries of the project site, and extended the radius to include all properties within the same block, see Attachment 4. Additionally, legal advertisements were published in the Press Enterprise. To date, no comments have been received.
CONCLUSION
The proposed commercial development adheres to the applicable goals and policies within the General Plan and is consistent with the requirements in the City’s zoning code. The project features site upgrades which include new public improvements, attractiv e architectural building design, decorative perimeter walls/fencing and landscape screening, equestrian trail and fencing and, overall site improvements. Potential impacts have been analyzed and mitigation measures have been incorporated to reduce any impacts to a “less than significant level.” Based upon the findings set forth in the attached Resolution No. 2020 -04-22-01, staff recommends approval of Conditional Use Permit (CUP) No. 19003 and Site Development Permit (SDP) No. 20010 subject to the Conditions of Approval.

Introduction Page 1
1.0. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose of an Initial Study
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires that before a public agency makes a decision to approve a project that could have one or more adverse effects on the physical environment, the agency must inform itself about the project’s potential envir onmental impacts, give the public an opportunity to comment on the environmental issues, and take feasible measures to avoid or reduce potential harm to the physical environment.
The purpose of this Initial Study is to provide an analysis of a proposed action to determine whether a Negative Declaration, Mitigated Negative Declaration, or an Environmental Impact Report should be prepared for a pro ject. An Initial Study also enables an applicant or the City of Jurupa Valley to modify a project, mitigating adverse impacts in lieu of preparing an Environmental Impact Report, thereby potentially enabling the project to qualify for a Negative Declaration or a Mitigated Negative Declaration.
1.2 Purpose of a Mitigated Negative Declaration
A Mitigated Negative Declaration is a written statement by the City of Jurupa Valley that the Initial Study identified potentially significant environmental effects of the Project but the Project is revised or mitigation measures are required to eliminate or mitigate impacts to less than significant levels.
1.3 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration Document
This document in its entire ty is an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), inc luding all criteria, standards, and procedures of CEQA (California Public Resource Code Section 21000 et seq.) and the CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3, Section 15000 et seq.).
1.4 Public Review and Processing of the Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
This Initial Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration and a Notice of Intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration was distributed to the following entities for a 20-day public review period:
1) Organizations and individuals who have previously requested such notice in writing to the City of Jurupa Valley;
2) Responsible and trustee agencies (public agencies that have a level of discretionary approval over some component of the proposed Project); and
3) The Riverside County Clerk.
The Notice of Intent also was noticed to the general public in the Riverside Press-Enterprise, which is a primary newspaper of circulation in the areas affected by the Project.
The Notice of Intent identifies the location(s) w here the Initial Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration and its associated Mitigation Monitoring Reporting Program and technical reports are

Introduction Page 2
available for public review. During the 20 -day public review period, co mments on the adequacy of the Initial Study Checklist/Mitigated Negative Declaration document may be submitted to the City of Jurupa Valley Planning Department.
Following the 20 -day public review period, the City of Jurupa Valley Planning Department will review any comment letters received during the public review period to determine whether any substantive comments were provided that may warrant revisions or recirculatio n to the Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration document. If recirculation is not required (as defined by CEQA Guidelines §15073.5(b)), written and/or oral responses will be provided to the decision making body for the Project (e.g. Planning Director, Planning Commission, or City Council).
At the conclusion of the public hearin g pr ocess, the decision making body will take action to approve, conditionally approve, or deny the proposed Project. If approved, the decision making body will adopt findings relative to the Project’s environmental effects as disclosed in the Initial Study /M itigated Negative Declaration and a Notice of Determination will be filed with the Riverside County Clerk.

Site Improvements
The primary site improvements are described as follows:
Street Improvements and Access
Van Buren Boulevard and Rutile Street are both fully improved roadways that currently meet City standards. In addition, t he Project is proposing to construct one (1) new driveway approach each on both Van Buren Boulevard and Rutile Street.
Water and Wastewater Improvements
Water: The Project will connect to the existing 10-inch diameter water main in Rutile Street.
Sewer: The Project will connect to the existing 8-inch diameter sewer main at the intersection of Rutile Street and Woodbridge Lane.
Drainage Improvements
Currently the site drains from northwest to southeast at Van Buren Blvd. as overland flow. The site is bounded on 3 sides, 2 sides by streets on the west and northeast and the 3rd side the south by existing homes. Both of the streets will be improved as part of this project. On the south are existing homes will have a new wall constructed and a shallow landscaping / retention area to help desilt and clarify the water before it will be picked up by catch basins and convey ed to the underground detention basin. The area is designed for only 6” depth of water to allow for water to settle. At 6” in depth the water will flow into the catch basins. If the basins were to plug up, the water will get to a depth of 1’ before the wat er will overflow to the next basin and so on till it will eventually flow to the above ground detention basin in the southeast corner of the site. All of these basins are below the adjacent grade to the south to keep the water from flowing to the south and from the site. The wall along the south property line will keep the water from leaving the site and flowing to the south.
Operational Characteristics
The Project wo uld be operated as a commercial shopping center . As such, typical operational characteristics include employees and customers traveling to and from the site, delivery of merchandise and supplies to the site, and maintenance activities.
2.3 Existing Site Conditions/Environmental Setting
CEQA Guidelines §15125 establishes requirements for de fining the environmental setting to which the environmental effects of a proposed project must be compared. The environmental setting is defined as “…the physical environmental conditions in the vicinity of the project, as they exist at the time the Notice of Preparation is published, or if no Notice of Preparation is published, at the time the environmental analysis is commenced…” (CEQA Guidelines §15125[a]). A Notice of Preparation was not required at the t ime the Initial Study was commenced. Thus the e nvironmental setting for the Project is the approximate date that the Project’s Initial Study Checklist commenced in March, 2019.

Project Background Page 5
The 16.2 -acre site is triangular in shape and is located at the southeast corner of Van Buren Boulevard and Rutile Street. T he Site is located adjacent to residential developments to the south and west, Rutile Street followed by commercial development to the east, and Van Buren Boulevard followed by industrial development to the north. The site is bound by Van Buren Boulevard o n its northern boundary, Rutile Street on its western boundary, and residential developments on its southern boundary.
The Project site primarily consists of vacant, undeveloped land that has been subject to a variety of anthropogenic disturbances that was historically used for agricultural land uses. Due to existing land uses, no native plant communities or natural communities of special concern were observed on or adjacent to the project site. The Project site no longer is used for agricultural activities but has been subject to on -going weed abatement activities and disturbance associated with surrounding development and equestrian use (e.g., horse rings, trails).
The vegetation on -site can be characterized as a heavily disturbed land cover type that i s sparsely vegetated with a variety of non -native and early successional weedy plant species. Early successional and non-native weedy plant species compose a majority of the project site as a result of the on -going disking/weed abatement activities. Plant species observed on -site include Russian thistle (Salsola tragus), puncture vine ( Tribulus terrestris), sow thistle ( Sonchus oleraceus), London rocket ( Sisymbrium irio ), ragweed ( Ambrosia psilostachya ), wild oat ( Avena sp.), goldenbush (Isocoma menziesii), cheeseweed (Malva parviflora), pigweed (Chenopodium album), ripgut (Bromus diandrus), red brome ( Bromus madritensis ssp. rubens ), lambs quarters ( Chenopodium album), and silverleaf nighshade (Solanum elaeagnofolium).
Existing and surrounding land uses are shown in Table 1 and General Plan/Zoning designations are shown in Table 2

3.0 INITIAL STUDY CHECKLIST
Evaluation Format
This Initial Study Checklist has been prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines. The Project is evaluated based on i ts potential effect on twenty-one (21) environmental factors categorized as follows, as well as Mandatory Findings of Significance:
1. Aesthetics 11. Land Use & Planning
2. Agriculture & Forestry Resources 12. Mineral Resources
3. Air Quality 13. Noise
4. Biological Resources 14. Population & Housing
5. Cultural Resources 15. Public Services
6. Energy 16. Recreation
7. Geology & Soils 17. Transportation
8. Greenhouse Gas Emissions 18. Tribal Cultural Resources
9. Hazards & Hazardous Materials 19. Utilities and Service Systems
10. Hydrology & Water Quality 20. Wildfire
21. Mandatory Findings of Significance
Each factor is analyzed by responding to a series of questions pertaining to the impact of the Project on the particular factor in the form of a checklist . This Initial Study provides a manner to analyze the impacts of the Project on each factor in order to determine the severity of the impact and determine if mitigation measures can be implemented to reduce the impact to less than signi ficant without having to prepare an Environmental Impact Report.
CEQA also requires Lead Agencies to evaluate potential environment al effects based to the fullest extent possible on scientific and factual data (CEQA Guidelines §15064[b]). A determination of whether or not a particular environmental impact will be significant must be based on substantial evidence, which includes facts, reasonable assumptions predicated upon facts, and expert opinion supported by facts (CEQA Guidelines §15064f[5]).
The effects of the Project are then placed in the following four categories, which are each followed by a summary to substantiate why the Project does not impact the particular factor with or without mitigation. If “Potentially Significant Impacts” that cannot be mitigated are determin ed, then the Project does not qualify for a Mitigated Negative Declaration and an Environmental Impact Report must be prepared:

Throughout the impact analysis in this Initial Study Checklist, reference is made to the following:
• Plans, Policies, Programs (PPP) − These include existing regulatory requirements such as plans, polici es, or programs applied to the Project based on the basis o f federal, state, or local law currently in place which effectively reduce environmental impacts. • Project Design Features (PDF) − These measures include features proposed by the Project that are already incorporated into the P roject’s design and are specifically intended to reduce or avoid impacts (e.g., water quality treatment basins). • Mitigation Measures (MM) − These measures include requirements that are imposed where the impact analysis determi nes that implementation of the proposed P roject would result in significant impacts. M itigation measures are proposed to reduce impacts to less than significant levels in accordance with the requirements of CEQA.
Plans, Policies, or Programs (PPP) and the Project Design Features (PDF) were assumed and accounted for in the assessment of impacts for each issue area if applicable.
Mitigation Measures (MM) were formulated only for those issue areas where the results of the impact analysis identified significant impacts that could to be reduced to less than significant levels.
All three types of measures described above may be required to be implemented as part of the Project, and will be included in the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Project

Determination
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
I find that the proposed use COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be recommended for adoption.
I find that although the proposal could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because revisions in the Project have been made by or agreed to by the Project Applicant. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be recommended for adoption.
I find that the proposal MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
I find that the proposal MAY have a significant ef fect(s) on the environment, but at least one effect 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheet s, if the effect is a “potentially significant impact” or “potentially significant unless mitigated.” An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed.
I find that although the proposed Project could have a significant effect on tyhe environment, because all potgentially significnat effect (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION, pursuant to all applicable standards, and (b) have been avoided or mitigated p ursuant to that earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION, including revisions or mitigation measures are are imposed upon the proposed Project, nothing further is required.

Impact Analysis
The 16.2 -acre site is triangular in shape and is lo cated at the southeast corner of Van Buren Boulevard and Rutile Street. The s ite is located adjacent to residential developments to the south and west, commercial development to the east, and Van Buren Boulevard and industrial developments to the north. The Project site primarily consists of vacant, undeveloped land that has been subject to a variety of anthropogenic disturbances. According to the General Plan, scenic vistas are points or corridors that are accessible to the public and that provide a view o f scenic areas and/or landscapes. Given the existing site conditions, the Project site does not meet the criteria for a scenic vista.
A scenic vista in the Project vicinity are the Jurupa Mountains located approximately 1.5 miles northeast of the Project site. The public view vantage points for the Jurupa Mountains from the Project site are from Rutile Street traveling northbound.
Both building height and floor area ratio ( which is the measurement of the amount of non - residential building floor area divi ded by site area, in square feet ) serves to limit the lot coverage and the height o f buildings on the Project site, which in turn allows view corridors to scenic resources.
As r equired by PPP 3.1 -1, any building s proposed on the Project site are restricted to 50 feet in height and in no case higher than 75 feet unless a zoning variance is appr oved. As proposed, the highest proposed building height is 35-feet. As such, the Project will not exceed the maximum height allowed. As required by PPP 3.1 -2, maximum floor area ratio allowed is 0.35. The proposed Project has a floor area ratio of 11.5. As such, the Project will not exceed the maximum floor area ratio allowed
Based on the analysis above, development of the Project will not block or completely obstruct views from surrounding public vantage p oints to the Jurupa Mountains visible in the horizon under existing conditions. Impacts to scenic vista are less than significant.
3.1 (b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not limited to, tree s, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway? Determination: No Impact.

through special conservation treatment. The state laws governing the Scenic Highway Program are found in the Streets and Highways Code, Sections 260 through 263.
According to the California Department of Transportation, the Project site is not located within a State Scenic Highway. As such, there is no impact. In addition, according to General Plan Figure 4 - 23: Jurupa Valley Scenic Corridors and Roadways, the Project site is not located within or adjacent to a scenic corridor or roadway.
3.1 (c) In non- urbanized areas, substantially degrade the exi sting visual character or quality of public views of the site and its surroundings? (Public views are those that are experienced from publicly accessible vantage point).

Impact Analysis
According to the Census 2010 Urbanized Area Outline Maps, the P roject site is l ocated in the Riverside-San Bernardino, CA Urbanized Area. As such, the Project is subject to applicable General Plan and zoning regulations governing scenic quality. General Plan Policy COS -9.3 requires that urban development implement the aesthetic princ iples for design context, utilities and signs, streetscapes and major roadways and G eneral Plan Policy COS 9 requires the consideration of the effects of new development, streets and road construction, grading and earthwork, and utilities on views and vis ual quality. In addition, the Project is subject to the development standards required by Municipal Code Section 9.4 for the C-P-S zone and the City’s design standards . Through the Site Development Permit (SDP) review process, the Project has been determi ned to be in c ompliance with these mandatory General Plan and Municipal Code requirements.
Based on the analysis above, the Project will not degrade the existing visual character or quality of public views of the site and its surroundings and impacts are less than significant and no mitigation measures are required.
3.1 (d) Create a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area?

3.2 AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY RESOURCES
In determining whether impacts to agricultural
resources are significant environmental effects,
lead agencies may refer to the California
Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment
Model (1997) prepared by the California
Department of Conservation as an optional model
to use in assessing impacts on agr iculture and
farmland. In determining whether impacts to
forest resources, including timberland, are
significant environmental effects, lead agencies
may refer to information compiled by the
California Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection regarding the state’s inventory of forest
land, including the Forest and Range Assessment

Impact Analysis
Federal Air Quality Standards
Under the Federal Clean Air Act, the Federal Environmental Protection Agency establishes health - based air quality standards that California must achieve. These are called “national (or federal) ambient air quality standards” and they apply to what are called “cr iteria pollutants.” Ambient (i.e. surrounding) air quality standard establish a concentration above which a criteria pollutant is known to cause adverse health effects to people. The national ambient air quality standards apply to the following criteria pollutants:
• Ozone (8-hour standard)
MA 19041

Air Quality Page 23
• Respirable Particulate Matter (PM10)
• Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5)
• Carbon Monoxide (CO)
• Nitrogen Dioxide (NOx)
• Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), and
• Lead.
State Air Quality Standards
Under the California Clean Air Act, the Ca lifornia Air Resources Board also establishes health-based air quality standards that cities and counties must meet. These are called “state ambient air quality standards” and they apply to the following criteria pollutants:
• Ozone (1-hour standard)
• Ozone (8-hour standard)
• Respirable Particulate Matter (PM
10)
• Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5)
• Carbon Monoxide (CO)
• Nitrogen Dioxide (NOx)
• Sulphur Dioxide (SO2), and
• Lead
Regional Air Quality Standards
The City of Jurupa Valley is located within the South Coa st Air Basin which is under the jurisdiction of the South Coast Air Quality Management District. The District develops plans and regulations designed to achieve these both the national and state ambient air quality standards described above.
Attainment Designation
An “attainment” designation for an area signifies that criteria pollutant concentrations did not exceed the established standard. In contrast to attainment, a “nonattainment” designation indicates that a criteria pollutant concentration has exceeded the established standard.
Table 3 shows the attainment status of criteria pollutants in the South Coast Air Basin.

Air Quality Management Plan
The South Coast Air Quality Management District is required to produce air quality management plans directing how the South Coast Air Basin’s air quality will be brought into attainment with the national and state ambient air quality standards. The most recent air quality management plan is 2016 Air Quality Management Plan and it is applicable to City of Jurupa Valley. The purpose of the 2016 Air Quality Management Plan is to achieve and maintain both the national and state ambient air quality standards described above.
In order to determine if a p roject is consistent with the 2016 Air Quality Management Plan , the South Coast Air Quality Management District has established consistency criterion which are defined in Chapter 12, Sections 12.2 and 12.3 of the South Coast Air Quality Management District ’s CEQA Air Quality Handbook and are discussed below.
Consistency Criterion No. 1: The proposed project will not result in an increase in the frequency or severity of existing air quality violations or cause or contribute to new violations, or delay the ti mely attainment of air quality standards or the interim emissions reductions specified in the 2016 Air Quality Management Plan.
Consistency Criterion No. 1 refers to violations of the California Ambient Air Quality Standards and National Ambient Air Qualit y Standards. As evaluated under Issues 3.3 (b), (c), and (d) below, the air emissions from construction or operation would not exceed regional or localized significance thresholds for any criteria pollutant. Accordingly, the Project’s regional and localize d emissions would not contribute substantially to an existing or potential future air quality violation or delay the attainment of air quality standards.
Consistency Criterion No. 2: The proposed project will not ex ceed the assumptions in the 2016 Air Quality Management Plan.
The 2016 Air Quality Management Plan demonstrates that the applicable ambient air quality standards can be achieved within the timeframes required under federal law. Growth projections from local general plans adopted by cities in th e district are provided to the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), which develops regional growth forecasts, which are then used to develop future air quality forecasts for the AQMP.
The General Plan Land Use Designation current ly assi gned to the Project site is CR (Commercial Retail). The future emission forecasts contained in the 2016 Air Quality Management Plan are primarily based on demographic and economic growth projections provided by the Southern California Association of Gover nments. The Project site was planned for commercial development MA 19041

at the time the 2016 Air Quality Management Plan adopted. Therefore, the Project will not exceed the growth forecast estimates used in the 2016 Air Quality Management Plan.
For the reasons sta ted above, the Project would not result in an increase in the frequency or severity of existing air quality violations or cause or contribute to new violations, delay the timely attainment of air quality standards or the interim emissions reductions specif ied in the 2016 Air Quality Management Plan. In addition, the Project would not exceed the growth assumptions in the 2016 Air Quality Management Plan . As such, the Project would be consistent with the 2016 Air Quality Management Plan and impacts would be l ess than significant and no mitigation measures are required.

Plans, Policies, or Programs (PPP)
The following apply to the Project and would reduce impacts related to air quality violations. These measures will be included in the Project’s Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting P rogram to ensure compliance:
PPP 3.3-1 The Project is required to comply with the provisions of South Coast Air Quality Management District Rule 403, “Fugitive Dust.” Rule 403 requires implementation of best available dust control measures during construction activities that generate fugitive dust, such as earth moving and stockpiling activities, grading, and equipment travel on unpaved roads.
PPP 3.3-2 The Project is required to comply with the provisions of South Coast Air Quality Management District Ru le 1113 , “Architectural Coatings ” Rule 1113 limits the release of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the atmosphere during painting and application of other surface coatings.
PPP 3.3-3 The Project is required to comply with the provisions of South Co ast Air Quality Management District Rule 1186 “PM
10 Emissions from Paved and Unpaved Roads and
Livestock Operations” Adherence to Rule 1186 reduces the release of criteria pollutant emissions into the atmosphere during construction.

The South Coast Air Quality Management District has developed regional and localized significance thresholds for regulated pollutants. Any project in the South Coast Air Basin with daily emissions that exceed any of the indi cated regional or localized significance thresholds would be considered to contribute to a projected air quality violation. The Project’s regional and localized air quality impacts are discussed below.
Regional Impact Analysis
The Project has the poten tial to generate pollutant concentrations during both construction activities and long -term operation. The following provides an analysis based on the applicable regional significance thresholds established by the South Coast Air Quality Management District in order to meet national and state air quality standards which are shown in Table 4 below.

Both construction and operational emissions for the Project were estimated by using the California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod) which is a statewide land use emissions computer model designed to provide a uniform platform for government agencies to quantify potential criteria pollutant emissions associated with both construction and operations from a variety of land use projects. The model can be used for a variety of situations where an air quality analysis is necessary or desirable such as California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) documents and is authorized for use by the South Coast Air Quality Management District.
Construction Related Impacts
It w as assumed that during construction activities that heavy construction equipment would be operating at the Project site for eight hours per day, fi ve days per week . It is mandato ry for all construction activities to comply with several S outh Coast Air Quality Management District Rules, including Rule 403 for controlling fugitive dust, PM
10, and PM 2.5 emissions from construction
activities. Rule 403 requirements include, but are not limited to, applying water in sufficient quantities to prevent the generation of visible dust plumes, applying soil binders to uncovered areas, reestablishing ground cover as quickly as possible, utilizing a wheel washing system to remove bulk material from tires and vehicle undercarriages b efore vehicles exit t he Project site, covering all trucks hauling soil with a fabric cover and maintaining a freeboard height of 12 inches, MA 19041

and maintaining effective cover over exposed areas. Compliance with Rule 403 was accounted for in the construction emissions modeling.
Implementation of South Coast Air Quality Management District Rule 1113 governing the content in architectural coating, paint, thinners, and solvents, was accounted for in the construction emissions modeling. Implementation of South Coast Air Quality Manag ement District Rule 1186 to reduce the amount of particulate matter entrained in the ambient air as a result of vehicular travel on paved and unpaved public roads was also accounted for in the construction emissions modeling. These South Coast Air Quality Management District Rule Rules are included as PPP 3.3 -1 through PPP 3.3-
3. Short-term criteria pollutant emissions will occur during site grading, building construction, paving, and architectural coating activities. Emissions will occur from use of equi pment, worker, vendor, and hauling trips, and disturbance of onsite soils (fugitive dust). The estimated maximum daily construction emissions are summarized in Table 5 below. Emissions resulting from the Project construction would not exceed numerical th resholds established by the SCAQMD and therefore no mitigation is required.

Based on the analysis above, regional air quality impacts for construction would be less than significant and no mitigation measures are required.
Long-Term Regional Operation Related Impacts
Long-term criteria air pollutant emissions will result from the operation of the commercial facility portion of the Project site. Long-term emissions are categorized as area source emissions, energy demand emissions, and operational emissions. Operational emissions will result from automobile, truck, and other vehicle sources associated with daily trips to and from the commercial facility portion of the Project site. Area source emissions are the combination of many small emission sources that include use of outdoor landscape maintenance equipment, use of consumer products such as cleaning products, and periodic repainting of the proposed commercial facility. Energy demand emissions result from use of electricity and natural gas.
The results of the CalEEMod model for operation of the Project site are summarized in Table 6 below (Maximum Operational Daily Emissions). Based on the results of the model, operational emissions associated with operation the commer cial facility portion of the P roject site will not exceed the thresholds established by SCAQMD.

Based on the analysis above, regional air quality impacts for opera tions would be less than significant and no mitigation measures are required.
Localized Impact Analysis
As part of the South Coast Air Quality Management District’s environmental justice program, attention has been focusing more on the localized effects of air quality. Although the region may be in attainment for a particular criteria pollutant, localized emissions from construction and operational activities coupled with ambient pollutant levels can cause localized increases in criteria pollutant that e xceed national and/or State air quality standards. The South Coast Air Quality Management District has established Localized Significance Thresholds (LST) which were developed in response to environmental justice and health concerns raised by the public regarding exposure of individuals to criteria pollutants in local communities.
Localized Significance Thresholds are only applicable to the following criteria pollutants: oxides of nitrogen (NO
X), carbon monoxide (CO), particulate matter less than 10 micro ns in aerodynamic diameter (PM 10) and particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in aerodynamic diameter (PM2.5). Localized Significance Threshold’s represent the maximum emissions from a project that are not expected to cause or contribute to an exceedance of the most stringent applicable national or state ambient air quality standard, and are developed based on the ambient concentrations of that pollutant for each source receptor area and distance to the nearest sensitive receptor.
Construction-Related Localized Emissions
Construction localized impacts were evaluated pursuant to the South Coast Air Quality Management District’s Final Localized Significance Thresholds Methodology for the Project site. This methodology provides screening tables fo r one through five acre project construction scenarios, depending on the amount of site disturbance during a day. Maximum daily oxides of nitrogen (NOX), carbon monoxide (CO), and particulate matter (PM 10 and PM 2.5) emissions will occur du ring building con struction, grading , and paving of parking lots and drive aisles. Table 7 below (Construction Localized Significance Threshold Analysis) summarize on -site emissions as compared to the local screening thresholds established for Source Receptor Area (SRA) 23 (Metropolitan Riverside/Mira Loma) at 25 meters from the closest residential receptor located adjacent to the southern boundary of the Project site. Emissions resulting from construction would not exceed LST numerical thresholds established by the SCAQMD and no mitigation is required.

Operational-Related Localized Emissions
On-site operational activities can result in localized increases in criteria pollutant levels that can cause air quality standards to be exceed even if standards are not exceeded on a regional level. On - site area and energy sources were evaluated. As shown in Table 8, emis sions result ing from the Project would not exceed LST numerical thresholds established by the SCAQMD and no mitigation is required.

CO Hot Spots
CO Hot Spots are typically associated with idling vehicles at extremely busy intersections (i.e., intersections with an excess of 100,000 vehicle trips per day). There are no intersections in the vicinity of the Project site which exceed t he 100,000 vehicle per day threshold typically associated with CO Hot Spots. In addition, the South Coast Air Basin has been designated as an attainment area for CO since 2007. Therefore, Project ‐related vehicular emissions would not create a Hot Spot and would not substantially contribute to an existing or projected CO Hot Spot.
Based on the analysis above, impacts would be less than significant and no mitigation measures are required.

Impact Analysis
According to the SCAQMD, individual projects that do not generate operational or construction emissions that exceed the SCAQMD’s recomm ended daily thresholds for project specific impacts would also not cause a cumulatively considerable increase in emissions for those pollutants for which the Basin is in nonattainment, and, therefore, would not be considered to have a significant, adverse air quality impact. Alternatively, individual project -related construction and operational emissions that exceed SCAQMD thresholds for project -specific impacts would be considered cumulatively considerable.
As discussed in Issue 3.3(b) above, the Project would not exceed the regional or localized significance thresholds for construction or operational activities. As such, the Project will not result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant.
Based on the analysis above, impacts would be less than significant.

Impact Analysis
Sensitive receptors (i.e., children, senior citize ns, and acutely or chronically ill people) are more susceptible to the effects of air pollution than the general population. Land uses that are considered sensitive receptors typically include residences, schools, playgrounds, childcare centers, hospitals, convalescent homes, and retirement homes. The closest sensitive receptors in the vicinity of the Project site are the single-family residences adjacent to the southern and western boundaries of the Project site.

As shown on Table 8 above under the discu ssion of Issue 3.3 (b), the Project would not exceed any of the South Coast Air Quality Management District’s Localized Significance Thresholds during near- term construction or long-term operation. In addition, the Project would not create a CO Hot Spot.
Accordingly, Project-related localized emissions would not expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations during construction or long -term operation and impacts would be less than significant.
Fueling Stations
A cancer risk analysis was prepared using the Emission Inventory and Risk Assessment Guidelines for Gasoline Service Stations promulgated by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). The purpose of the following analysis is to estimate cancer risks from retail gas oline dispensing facilities. The analysis is consistent with (1) SCAQMD’s risk assessment procedures for Rule 1401 and (2) California Air Pollution Control Officer Association (CAPCOA) risk assessment guidance for gasoline service stations.
Emissions from gasoline transfer and dispensing mainly occur during loading, breathing, refueling, and spillage as described below:
• Loading – Emissions occur when a fuel tanker truck unloads gasoline to the storage tanks.
The storage tank vapors, displaced during load ing, are emitted through its vent pipe. A pressure/vacuum valve installed on the tank vent pipe significantly reduces these emissions.
• Breathing – Emissions occur through the storage tank vent pipe as a result of temperature and pressure changes in the tank vapor space.
• Refueling – Emissions occur during motor vehicle refueling when gasoline vapors escape through the vehicle/nozzle interface.
• Spillage – Emissions occur from evaporating gasoline that spills during vehicle refueling.
All retail service stations under SCAQMD jurisdiction have Phase I and II vapor recovery systems to control gasoline emissions. Phase I vapor recovery refers to the collection of gasoline vapors displaced from storage tanks when cargo tank trucks make gasoline deliveries. Phase II vapor recovery systems control the vapors displaced from the vehicle fuel tanks during refueling. In addition, all gasoline is stored underground with valves installed on the tank vent pipes to further control gasoline emissions.
The California A ir Resources Board (CARB ) and the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA) recommend a 50 -foot separation between gas stations and sensitive receptors; therefore, the approximately 275 -foot separation from the single -family residentia l dwelling units to the west and approximately 610 -foot separation from the southern property line to the fueling pumps is more than adequate.
The Emission Inventory and Risk Assessment Guidelines for Gasoline Service Stations show that the Maximum Indiv idual Cancer Risk at residential receptors 25 meters (the tanks and pumps are located further away @ approximately 84 meters) from the fuel source would not exceed 4.141 in a million (per 1,000,000 gallons of through put); which is a reasonable assumption given the size of MA 19041

the Project and number of pumps). The proposed project is estimated to have approximately 1.87 MM gallons of through put per year which equates to an ap proximate 1.72 in a million cancer risk , at a distance of approximately 75 meters. The risk is below SCAQMD’s 10 in a million threshold.
Based on the preceding analysis, the facility has a Maximum Individual Cancer Risk of 1.72 per million which is less than the screening threshold of 10 per million. Therefore, the fueling station portion of the Project will not expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations.

Project Design Features (PDF)
There are no Project Design Features applicable to the Project related to this issue.
Impact Analysis
According to the South Coast Air Quality Management District CEQA Air Quality Handbook, land uses associated with odor complaints typically include agricultural u ses, wastewater treatment plants, food processing plants, chemical plants, composting, refineries, landfills, dairies, and fiberglass molding. The Project does not propose any of the above described uses.
Potential odor sources associated with the propose d Project may result from construction equipment exhaust and the application of asphalt and architectural coatings during construction activities and the temporary storage of typical solid waste (refuse) associated with the proposed Project’s (long -term op erational) uses. The construction odor emissions would be temporary, short-term, and intermittent in nature and would cease upon completion of the respective phase of construction and is thus considered less than significant. It is expected that Project -generated refuse would be stored in covered containers and removed at regular intervals in compliance with the City’s solid waste regulations. The proposed Project would also be required to comply with PPP
3.3-4 to prevent occurrences of public nuisances. Th erefore, odors associated with the proposed Project construction and operations would be less than significant and no mitigation is required.

Impact Analysis
Existing Conditions
The Project site primarily consists of vacant, undeveloped land that has been subject to a variety of anthropogenic disturbances that was historically used for agricultural land uses. Due to existing land uses, no native plant communities or natural communities of special concern were observed on or adjacent to the Project site. The Project site no longer is used for agricultural activities but has been subject to on -going weed abatement activities and disturbance associated with surrounding development and equestrian use (e.g., horse rings, trails).
The vegetation on -site can be characterized as a heavily disturbed land cover type that is sparsely vegetated with a variety of non -native and early successional weedy plant species. Early successional and non-native weedy plant species compose a majority of the project site as a result of the on -going disking/weed abatement activities. Plant species observed on -site include Russian thistle (Salsola tragus), puncture vine ( Tribulus terrestris), sow thistle ( Sonchus oleraceus), London rocket ( Sisymbrium irio ), ragweed ( Ambrosia psilostachya ), wild oat ( Avena sp.), goldenbush (Isocoma menziesii), cheeseweed (Malva parviflora), pigweed (Chenopodium album), ripgut (Bromus diandrus), red brome ( Bromus madritensis ssp. rubens ), lambs quarters ( Chenopodium album), and silverleaf nighshade (Solanum elaeagnofolium).
Sensitive Species
Based on the propo sed P roject footprint and existing site conditions, none of the special -status plant or wildlife species known to occur in the general vicinity of the P roject site are expected to be directly or indirectly impacted from impl ementation of the proposed P roject except for the Burrowing Owl (BUOW).
Burrowing Owl
Per the literature review, the most recent documented BUOW occurrence is located approximately 2 miles southwest of the Project site near Limonite Avenue and the Santa Ana River. The closest documented BUOW occurrence is located approximately 0.7-mile northwest of the Project site.

Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
March 23, 2020
Biological Resources Page 35
Despite a systematic search of the Project site, no BUOWs or sign (pellets, feathers, castings, or white wash) were observed on the Projec t site during the habitat assessment. The majority of the Project site does not support suitable burrows of appropriate size (greater than 4 inches in diameter), aspect or shape. No BUOW individuals were observed. Although approximately four to six California ground squirrel burrows were observed in a small portion of the northwest corner of the Project site, the burrows were occupied by ground squirrels and no burrowing owls or sign (i.e., pellets, feathers, castings, or white wash) were observed at the bu rrows. Further, power poles adjacent to the site decrease the likelihood that bu rrowing owls will occur on the P roject site as these features provide perching opportunities for larger raptor species (i.e., red -tailed hawk [Buteo jamaicensis]) that prey on burrowing owls. Based on this information, it was determined that burrowing owls are absent from the P roject site and focused surveys are not recommended.
However, because Burrowing Owls have been known to occupy disturbed sites, Mitigation Measure BIO-1 is required:
Mitigation Measure
MM-BIO-1: Pre-Construction Burrowing Owl Survey. Within 30 calendar days prior to the issuance of a grading permit, a qualified biologist shall conduct a survey of the proposed impact footprint and make a determination regarding the presence or absence of the burrowing owl. The determination shall be documented in a report and shall be submitted, reviewed, and accepted by the City of Jurupa Valley Planning Department prior to the issuance of a grading permit and subject to the following provisions:
a. In the event that the pre
‐construction survey identifies no burrowing owls in the impact area, a grading permit may be issued without restriction.
b. In the event that the pre
‐construction survey identifies the presence of at least one individual but less than three (3) mating p airs of burrowing owl, then prior to the issuance of a grading permit and prior to the commencement of ground ‐disturbing activities on the property, the qualified biologist shall passively or actively relocate any burrowing owls. Passive relocation, including the required use of one
‐way doors to exclude owls from the site and the collapsing of burrows, will occur if the biologist determines that the proximity and availability of alternate habitat is suitable for successful passive relocation. Passive reloca tion shall follow California Department of Fish and Wildlife relocation protocol. If proximate alternate habitat is not present as determined by the biologist, active relocation shall follow California Department of Fish and Wildlife relocation protocol. T he biologist shall confirm in writing to the Planning Department that the species has fledged or been relocated prior to the issuance of a grading permit.
With implementation of BIO-1 and PPP 3.4 -1, impacts related to candidate, sensitive, or special status species are less than significant.

Wildlife Corridors
Wildlife movement includes seasonal migration along corridors, as well as daily movements for foraging. Migration corridors may include areas of unobstructed movement of deer, riparian corridors providing cover for migrating birds, routes between breeding waters and upland habitat for amphibians, and between roosting and feeding areas for birds. The Project site is surrounded by roads and existing development that already restrict wildlife movement in the project vicinity. The proposed Project would not substantially limit wildlife movement.
Nursery Sites
The P roject site prov ides limited nesting habitat for year -round and seasonal avian residents, as well as migrating songbirds that could occur in the area. Although heavily disturbed, the Project site has the potential to provide nesting opportunities for avian species, in par ticular ground -nesting species such as killdeer ( Charadrius vociferus) Most birds and their active nests are protected from “take” (meaning destruction, pursuit, possession, etc.) under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and/or Sections 3503 –3801 of California Fish and Game Code. Activities that cause destruction of active nests, or that cause nest abandonment and subsequent death of eggs or young, may constitute violations of one or both of these laws. Therefore, if vegetation is to be removed during the nestin g season, a pre-construction nesting bird survey shall be conducted and avoidance measures taken to ensure that no take of birds or their nests will occur per Mitigation Measure BIO-2.
Mitigation Measure (MM)
MM-BIO-2- Nesting Bird Survey. Prior to the i ssuance of a grading permit, the City of Jurupa Valley Planning D epartment shall ensure vegetation clearing and ground disturbance shall be prohibited during the migratory bird nesting season ( February 1 through August 31 ), unless a migratory bird nesting survey is completed in accordance with the following requirements:
a. A migratory nesting bird survey of the Project’s impact footprint shall be conducted by a qualified biologist within three business (3) days prior to initiating vegetation clearing o r ground disturbance.
b. A copy of the migratory nesting bird survey results report shall be provided to the City of Jurupa Planning Department. If the survey identifies the presence of active nests, then the qualified biologist shall provide the Plannin g Department with a copy of maps showing the location of all active nests and an appropriate buffer zone around each nest sufficient to protect the nest from direct and indirect impact. The size and location of all buffer zones as determined by a qualified biologist, shall be subject to review and approval by the Planning Department. The nests and buffer zones shall be field checked weekly by a qualified biological monitor. The approved buffer zone shall be marked in the field with construction fencing, within which no vegetation clearing or ground disturbance shall commence until the qualified biologist and Planning Department verify that the nests are no longer occupied and the juvenile birds can survive independently from the nests.
With implementation of Mitigation Measure BIO-2, impacts are less than significant.

Impact Analysis
The Project site is located within the Western Riverside County Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP). The MSHCP, a regional Habitat Conservation Plan was adopted on June 17, 2003. The intent of the MSHCP is to preserve native vegetation and meet the habitat needs of multiple species, rather than focusing preservation efforts on one species at a time. The MSHCP provides coverage (including take authorization for listed species) for special ‐status plant and animal species, as well as mitigation for impacts to sensitive species.

Based on the Biological Resources Assessment and MSHCP Consistency Analysis, Report (Appendix B):
1) The site is not mapped within any MSHCP Criteria Cell or subunit.
2) The site is not mapped within an area where additional surveys are required for any Amphibian, Mammal or other Criteria Area Species.
3) The project will not impact any Riparian/Riverine or Vernal Pool areas.
4) The site is not within or adjacent to any MSHCP Conservation Areas and therefore does not require mitigation measures pursuant Section 6.1.4 (pertaining to Urban/ Wildlands Interface) of the MSHCP, which presents guidelines to minimize indirect effects of Projects in proximity to the MSCHP Conservation Areas.
5) The si te is mapped within a Burrowing Owl (BUOW) required habitat suitability assessment survey area. Therefore, to be thorough, a habitat suitability assessment for BUOW was conducted during site visit. The result of the assessment was that no BUOW habitat or B UOW sign was detected on site, and this species is currently considered absent from the Project area. However, because BUOW have been known to occupy disturbed sites, Mitigation Measure BIO-1 is required.
6) The site is mapped within a Narrow Endemic Plan t Species required habitat suitability assessment survey area. Therefore, to be thorough, a habitat suitability assessment for the three listed Narrow Endemic Plant Species was conducted during site visit. Based on habitat requirements for specific species , availability and quality of habitats needed by the three Narrow Endemic Plant Species, it was determined that the project site does not provide suitable habitat for Narrow Endemic Plant species San Diego ambrosia, Brand’s phacelia, and San Miguel Savory.
Conclusion
With implementation of Mitigation Measure BIO -1 and PPP 3.4-1, impacts related to conflicts with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan are less than significant.

Impact Analysis
Historic resources generally consist of buildings, structures, improvements, and remnants associated with a significant historic event or person(s) and/or have a historically significant style, design, or achievement. Damaging or demolition of historic resources is typically considered to be a significant impact. Impacts to historic resources can occur through direct impacts, such as destruction or removal, and indirect impacts, such as a change in the setting of a historic resource.
CEQA Guidelines §15064.5(a) clarifies that historical resources include the following:
1. A resource listed in, or determined to be eligible by the State Historical Resources Commission, for listing in the California Register of Historical Resources.
2. A resource included in a local register of historical resources, as defined in section 5020.1(k) of the Public Resources Code or identified as significant in an historical resource survey meeting the requirements [of] section 5024.1(g) of the Public Resources Code.
3. Any object, building, structure, site, area, place, record, or manuscript which a lead agency determines to be historically significant or significant in the architectural, engineering, scientific, economic, agricultural, educational, social, political, military, or cultural annals of California.

Records Search
A records search dated November 13, 2018, was obtained from the Eastern Information Center (EIC) at the Univers ity of California, Riverside , providing information on all documented cultural resources and previous archaeological investigations within 1 mile of the project area. Resources consulted during the records search conducted by the EIC included the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), California Historic al Landmarks, California Points of Historical Interest, and the California State Historic Resources Inventory. Results of the records search and additional research 11 previously recorded cultural resources were recorded within the 1 -mile records search ra dius.
None are located within the Project site.
Pedestrian Survey
The Project site’s exposed ground surface was examined for artifacts (e.g., flaked stone tools, tool - making debris, milling tools, ceramics), ecofacts (e.g., marine shell and bone), soil discoloration that might indicate the presence of a cultural midden, and features indicative of the former presence of structures or buildings (e.g., standing exterior walls, postholes, foundations) or historic debris (e.g., metal, glass, ceramics). Ground disturbances such as burrows were visually inspected for both cultural resources and paleontological resources.
Because no surface historic resources were identified within the Project site as a result of the record search or the pedestrian survey, no im pacts to surface historic resources are expected as part of the proposed Project.

archaeologist can evaluate the nature and significance of the finds per the following mitigation measures:
Mitigation Measures (MMs)
MM- CR-1: Archaeological Monitoring. A qualified archaeologist (the “Project Archaeologist”) shall be retained by the developer to prior to the issuance of a grading permit to be on-call to monitor ground- disturbing activities and excavations on the Project site if archeological resources ar e encountered during grading.
If archaeological resources are e ncountered during grading, activities will be temporarily redirected from the vicinity of the find. The Project Archaeologist will be allowed to temporarily divert or redirect grading or ex cavation activities in the vicinity in order to make an evaluation of the find. If the resource is significant, Mitigation Measure CR-2 shall apply.
MM- CR-2: Archeological Treatment Plan . If a significant archaeological resource(s) is discovered on the property, ground disturbing activities shall be suspended 100 feet around the resource(s). The archaeological monitor, the Project Proponent, and the City Planning Department shall confer regarding mitigation of the discovered resource(s). A treatment plan shall be prepared and implemented by the archaeologist to protect the identified archaeological resource(s) from damage and destruction. The treatment plan shall contain a research design and data recovery program necessary to document the size and content of the discovery such that the resource(s) can be evaluated for significance under CEQA criteria. The research design shall list the sampling procedures appropriate to exhaust the research potential of the archaeological resource(s) in accordance with current professional archaeology standards (typically this sampling level is two (2) to five (5) percent of the volume of the cultural deposit). At the completion of the laboratory analysis, any recovered archaeological resources shall be processed and curat ed according to current professional repository standards. The collections and associated records shall be donated to an appropriate curation facility.
A final report containing the significance and treatment findings shall be prepared by the archaeologist and submitted to the City of Jurupa Valley Planning Department and the Eastern Information Center.
With implementation of Mitigation Measures CR-1 and CR-2, impacts are less than significant.

Impact Analysis
The Project site does not contain a cemetery and no known formal cemeteries are located within the immediate site vicinity. As noted in the response to Issue 3.5 (a) above, the Project site has been heavily disturbed and the potential for uncovering human remains at the Project site is considered low. Nevertheless, the remote potential exists that human remains may be unearthed during grading and excavation activities associated with Project construction.
In the event that human remains are discovered during Project grading or other ground disturbin g activities, the Project would be required to comply with the applicable provisions of California Health and Safety Code §7050.5 as well as Public Resources Code §5097 et. seq. California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 states that no further distur bance shall occur until the County Coroner has made the necessary findings as to origin. Pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section 5097.98(b), remains shall be left in place and free from disturbance until a final decision as to the treatment and disposition has been made by the Coroner.
If the Coroner determines the remains to be Native American, the California Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) must be contacted and the NAHC must then immediately notify the “most likely descendant(s)” of receiving notification of the discovery. The most likely descendant(s) shall then make recommendations within 48 hours, and engage in consultations concerning the treatment of the remains as provided in Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. Based on t he analysis above, with implementation of PPP 3.5 -1, impacts would be less than significant and no mitigation measures are required.

Impact Analysis
Short-Term Construction Impacts
Construction of the proposed project would require the use of construction equipment for grading, hauling, and building activities. Electricity use during construction would vary during different phases of construction —the majority of construction equipment during demolition and grading would be gas or diesel powered, and the later construction phases would require electricity - powered equipment, such as for interior construction and architectural coatings. Construction also includes the vehicles of construction workers traveling to and from the project site and haul trucks for the export of materials from site clearing and demolition a nd the export and import of soil for grading. The project area is already served by electrical infrastructure by Southern California Edison (SCE)
The proposed P roject would require site preparation, grading, building construction, paving, and architectural coating during construction. Energy usage are summarized in Tables 9 through 12.

Construction contractors are required to demonstrate compliance with applicable California Air Resources Board regulations governing the accelerated retrofitting, repowering, or replacement of heavy-duty diesel on - and off-road equipment. In addition, compliance with existing California Air Resources Board idling restrictions and the use of newer engines and equipment would reduce fuel combustion and energy consumption. Overall, construction activities would require limited energy consumption, would comply with all existing regulations, and would therefore not be expected to use large amounts of energy or fuel in a wasteful manner. Thus, impacts related to construction energy usage would be less than significant.

Long-Term Operational Impacts
Operation of the Project would create additional demands for electricity and natural gas as compared to existing conditions, and would result in increased energy use.
Based on the California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod) which is a statewide land use emissions computer model which provides data on energy consumption, the estimated potential increased electricity demand associated with the proposed Project is 1,512.692.9 kWh per year.
According to the California Energy Commission, Electricity Consumption by County, 2018) , Riverside County consumed approximately 8295.96357 million of gigawatt-hours (GWh) The proposed Project would be less than 0.001 percent of Riverside County’s total electricity demand.
Based on the California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod) which is a statewide land use emissions computer model which provides data on energy consumption, t he estimated potential increased natural gas de mand associated with the proposed P roject is 4,213,970 kBTU per year According to the California Energy Commission, Natural Gas Consumption by County, 2018) , Riverside County consumed approximately 139.193875 million of therms of natural gas. The proposed Project would be less than 0.001 percent of Riverside County’s total electricity demand.
Additionally, plans submitted for building permits of development projects in the Project area would be required to include verification demonstrating compliance with the 2016 Building and Energy Efficiency Standards and are also required to be reviewed. The Project would also be required adhere to the provisions of CALGreen, which established planning and design standards for sustainable site development, energy effic iency (in excess of the California Energy Code requirements), water conservation, material conservation, and internal air contaminants.
Based on the above analysis, the proposed Project would not result in potentially significant environmental impact due to wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy resources, during project construction or operation.

Impact Analysis
The Project site is located in a seismically active area of Southern California and is expected to experience moderate to severe ground shaking during the lifetime of the Project. This risk is not considered substantially different than that of o ther similar properties in the S outhern California area. As a mandatory cond ition of Project approval, the Project would be required to construct the proposed structures in accordance with the California Building Code (CBC). The City’s Building and Safety Department would review the building plans through building plan checks, iss uance of a building permit, and inspection of the building during construction, which wo uld ensure that all required CBC seismic safety measures are incorporated into the building. Compliance with the CBC as verified by the City’s review process, would red uce impacts related to strong seismic ground shaking.
Based on the analysis above, with implementation of PPP 3.7 -1, impacts would be less than significant and no mitigation measures are required.

Impact Analysis
Liquefaction is a phenomenon in which loose, saturated, relatively cohesion -less soil deposits lose shear strength during strong ground motions. The factors controlling liquefaction are:
• Seismic ground shaking of relatively loose, granular soils that are saturated or submerged can cause soils to liquefy and temporarily behave as a dense fluid. For liquefaction to occur, the following conditions have to occur:
o Intense seismic shaking;
o Presence of loose granular soils prone to liquefaction; and
o Saturation of soils due to shallow groundwater.
Based on the Riverside County TLMA Geotechnical/Liquefaction map, the site is located in a”high” liquefaction zone. Detailed design -level geotechnical studies and building plans pursuant to the California Building Code
is a mandatory requirement prior to approval of construction on the Project site, as required by PPP 3.6 -1. Compliance with the recommendations of the geotechnical study for soils conditio ns, is a standard practice and would be required by the City Building and Safety Department. Therefore, compliance with the mandatory requirements of the California Building Code as identified in a site specific geotechnical design would be reviewed by the City for appropriate inclusion, as part of the building plan check and d evelopment review process, will reduce the low potential for liquefaction to a less than significant level.

Impact Analysis
Generally, a landslide is defined as the downward and outward movement of loosened rock or earth down a hillside o r slope. Landslides can occur either very suddenly or slowly, and frequently accompany other natural hazards such as earthquakes, floods, or wildfires. Landslides can also be induced by the undercutting of slopes during construction, improper artificial co mpaction, or saturation from sprinkler systems or broken water pipes. The Project site is relatively flat and contains no slopes that may be subject to landslides. As such, there are no impacts.

Impact Analysis
Construction
Construction of the Project has the potential to contribute to soil erosion and the loss of topsoil.
Grading and excavation activities that would be required for development of the Project will expose and loosen topsoil, which could be eroded by wind or water.
The City’s Municipal Code Chapter 6.05.010, Storm Water/Urban Runoff Management and Discharge Controls, implements the requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) stormwater permit, which establishes minimum stormwater management requirements MA 19041
Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
March 23, 2020
Geology and Soils Page 51
and controls that are required to be implemented for construction of the proposed Project. To reduce the potential for soil erosion and the loss of topsoil, a Stormwater Po llution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) is required by the City, (as required by PPP 3.9-2). The SWPPP is required to address site- specific conditions related to specific grading and construction activities. The SWPPP would identify potential sources of erosion an d sedimentation loss of topsoil during construction, identify erosion control Best Management Practices (BMPs) to reduce or eliminate the erosion and loss of topsoil, such as use of: silt fencing, fiber rolls, or gravel bags, stabilized construction entran ce/exit, hydroseeding.
With compliance with the City Municipal Code Chapter 6.05.010, Storm Water/Urban Runoff Management and Discharge Controls , Regional Water Quality Control Board requirements, and the best management practices (BMPs) in the SWPPP, con struction impacts related to erosion and loss of topsoil would be less than significant.
Operation
The Project includes installation of landscaping throughout the development site and areas of loose topsoil that could erode by wind or water would not exist upon operation of the Project. In addition, as described in Section 3.9, Hydrology and Water Quality, the hydrologic features of the Project have been designed to slow, filter, and retain stormwater on the development site, which would also reduce the pot ential for stormwater to erode topsoil. Furthermore, pursuant to Municipal Code Chapter 6.05.010, Storm Water/Urban Runoff Management and Discharge Controls , development of the Project requires the preparation of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP), which would ensure that appropriate operational BMPs would be implemented to minimize or eliminate the potential for soil erosion or loss of topsoil to occur during operation of the Project.
Based on the analysis above, with implementation of PPP 3.9-2, impacts are less than significant.
3.7(c) Be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of the Project, and potentially result in on -or offsite landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction or collapse?

Landslide
As noted in the response to Issue 3.7 (a) (4) above, the Project site is relatively flat and contains no slopes that may be subject to landslides. Therefore the site is not considered susceptible to landslides
Lateral Spreading
Lateral spreading is a term referring to landslides that common ly form on gentle slopes and that have rapid fluid -like flow horizontal movement. Most lateral spreading is caused by earthquakes but it is also caused by landslides. As noted in the response to Issue 3.7 (a) (4) above, the Project site is relatively flat and contains no slopes that may be subject to landslides. Therefore the Project site is not considered susceptible to lateral spreading.
Subsidence
According to the Riverside Coun ty Map My County website , t he Project site is considered “susceptible” to subsidence. With implementation of PPP 3.7-1, impacts are less than significant.
Liquefaction
As noted in the response to Issue 3.7 (a) (3) above, the site is located in a “high” liquefaction zone.
With implementation of PPP 3.7-1, impacts are less than significant.
Collapse
Collapse occurs in saturated soils in which the space between individual particles is completely filled with water. This water exerts a pressure on the soil particles that influences how tightly the particles themselves are pressed together. The soils lose their strength beneath buildings and other structures. The near -surface soils at the site generally consist of loose to medium dense native alluvial sands and silts. Based on the results of laboratory testing, the near -surface soils have the potential to experience collapse. With implementation of PPP 3.7 -1 and impacts are less than significant.

Expansive soils are those that undergo volume changes as moisture content fl uctuates; swelling substantially when wet or shrinking when dry. Soil expansion can damage structures by cracking foundations, causing settlement and distorting structural elements.
The near -surface soils generally consist of sandy gravelly soils and ar e not considered to have a “very low ” expansion potential. In any event , d esign-level geotechnical plans pursuant to the California Building Code are required prior to approval of cons truction, as required by PPP 3.7 -1.
Compliance with the California Building Code is a standard practice and would be required by the City Building and Safety Department. Therefore, compliance with the requirements of the California Building Standards Code as identified in a site specific geotechnical design would be reviewed by the City, as part of the building plan check and development review process, would ensure that potential soil stability impacts are less than significant

Paleontological Resources
Paleontological resources are the preserved fossilized remains of plants and animals. Fossils and traces of fossils are preserved in sedimentary rock units, particularly fine to medium grained marine, lake, and stream deposits, such as limestone, siltstone, san dstone, or shale, and in ancient soils. They are also found in coarse -grained sediments, such as conglomerates or coarse alluvium sediments. Fossils are rarely preserved in igneous or metamorphic rock units. Fossils may occur throughout a sedimentary unit and, in fact, are more likely to be preserved subsurface, where they have not been damaged or destroyed by previous ground disturbance, amateur collecting, or natural causes such as erosion.
Prior to the survey of the Project area, a paleontological reso urces literature and records search was conducted by the San Diego Natural History Museum (SDNHM) on November 21, 2018. This search included the current Project area with an additional 1 -mile radius. This search included a review of geological maps coverin g the Project footprint to determine the fossil -bearing rock units underlying the Project area. The objective of the records search was to identify fossil specimens or unique geological formations reported within the Project area or surrounding 1- mile vicinity.
Research also included a review of published and unpublished reports relevant to the paleontology and geology of the Project area.
Results of the paleontological records search were positive for significant vertebrate fossil localities within the Project area at depths below 5 -10 feet below surface grade. The deposits at these levels are assigned high paleontological potential according to Riverside County guidelines, based on the possible presence of paleontological resources at an uncertain depth b elow existing surface grade.
Therefore, the following mitigation measures are required.
Mitigation Measure (MM)
MM-GEO-1: Paleontological Monitoring. A qualified paleontologist (the “Project Paleontologist”) shall be retained by the developer prior to t he issuance of a grading permit. The Project Paleontologist will be on -call to monitor ground -disturbing activities and excavations ground-disturbing activities if excavation depth exceed approximately 5 -10 feet below surface grade on the Project site . If MA 19041
Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
March 23, 2020
Geology and Soils Page 55
paleontological resources are encountered during implementation of the Project, ground -disturbing activities will be temporarily redirected from the vicinity of the find. The Project Paleontologist will be allowed to temporarily divert or redirect grading or excavation activities in the vicinity in order to make an evaluation of the find. If the resource is significant, Mitigation Measure GEO-2 shall apply.
MM-GEO-2: Paleontological Treatment Plan. If a significant paleontological resource(s) is discovered on the property, in consultation with the Project proponent and the City, the qualified paleontologist shall develop a plan of mitigation which shall include salvage excavation and removal of the find, removal of sediment from around the specimen (in the laboratory), research to identify and categorize the find, curation in the find a local qualified repository, and preparation of a report summarizing the find.
Based on the analysis above, with implementation of Mitigation Measure GEO-1 and GEO-2, impacts are less than significant.
Unique Geologic Feature
Unique geologic features are those that are unique to the field of Geology. Unique geologic features are not common in Jurupa Valley. The geologic processes that formed the landforms in Jurupa Valley ar e generally the same as those in other parts of the state. What makes a geologic unit or feature unique can vary considerably. A geologic feature is unique if it:
• Is the best example of its kind locally or regionally;
• Embodies the distinctive charact eristics of a geologic principle that is exclusive locally or regionally;
• Provides a key piece of geologic information important in geology or geologic history;
• Is a “type locality” ( the locality where a particular rock type , stratigraphic unit or mineral species is first identified) of a geologic feature;
• Is a geologic formation that is exclusive locally or regionally;
• Contains a mineral that is not known to occur elsewhere in the City; or
• Is used repeatedly as a teaching tool.
The Project site is relatively flat and the subsurface material encountered at the site is underlain by sandy gravelly soils. These features are not considered “unique.”
Based on the analysis above, the Project will not directly or indirectly destroy a unique geo logic feature. There is no impact and no mitigation measures are required.

GHG Emissions
No single land use project c ould generate enough greenhouse gas ( GHG) emissions to noticeably change the global average temperature. Cumulative GHG emissions, however, contribute to global climate change and its significant adverse environmental impacts. Thus, the primary goal in adopting GHG significance thresholds, analytical methodologies, and mitigation measures is to ensure new land use development provides its fair share of the GHG reductions needed to address cumulative environmental impacts from those emissions.
A final numer ical threshold for determining the significance of greenhouse gas emissions in the South Coast Air Basin has not been established by the South Coast Air Quality Management District.
The City of Jurupa Valley is using the following screening threshold as i nterim thresholds for commercial projects:
• Commercial projects that emit less stationary source green house gas emissions less than 3,000 MTCO2e per year are not considered a substantial greenhouse gas emitter and the impact is less than significant. Projects that emit in excess of 3,000 MTCO2e per year require additional analysis .While not final, these thresholds can be used in the interim on a case-by-case basis to analyze conformance with AB 32.
A summary of the projected annual operational greenhouse g as emissions, including amortized construction-related emissions associated with the development of the Project is provided in Table

MM- GHG-1: GHG Reduction Documentation. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, documentation that the following GHG reduction measures shall be shall be implemented by the project is required.
MA 19041
Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
March 23, 2020
Greenhouse Gas Emissions Page 58
Documentation may consist of a letter stating how the project will comply and identify the verification mechanism for each measure required below (e.g. shown on building plans, landscaping plans, etc.)
1. The project shall devise a comprehensive water conservation strategy to reduce water use during project operation. The strategy will include the following:
• Install drought-tolerant plants for landscaping.
• Install water -efficient irrigation systems, such as weather -based and soil -moisture- based irrigation controllers and sensors, for landscaping according to the California Department of Water Resources Model Efficient Landscape Ordinance.
• Ensure that all landscape and irrigation measures are in compliance with the City’s Municipal, Landscaping and Water Conservation requirements.
MM-GHG-2: Building Design . The project will design building shells, building compon ents, such as windows, roof systems and electrical systems to meet 2016 Title 24 Standards, which are 5 percent more stringent than the 2013 Title 24 Standards for nonresidential buildings.
MM-GHG-3: LEED Features. Buildings will be designed to provide CALGreen Standards with Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) features for potential certification and will employ energy and water conservation measures in accordance with such standards. This includes design considerations related to the bui lding envelope, HVAC, lighting, and power systems. Additionally, the architectural expression such as roofs and windows in the buildings will relate to conserving energy.
MM-GHG-4. Energy Efficient Lighting. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, building plans shall require that high -efficiency lighting (such as LED lighting that is 34 percent more efficient than fluorescent lighting) be installed within buildings on-site.
MM-GHG-5. Efficient Building Materials/Equipment. The project will utilize bu ilding materials/methods and heating equipment that are efficient and reduce emissions.
MM-GHG-6.Parking Lot Shading. A parking lot shading plan shall be required, which includes a shading calculation table. Within 15 years after establishment of the aut omobile parking area, the project shall require that a minimum of 50 percent automobile parking area to be shaded by shade trees.
MM-GHG-7: .Reduce Indoor Water Demand. Prior to the issuance of a building permit , building plans shall require that all fau cets, toilets and showers installed in the proposed structures utilize low -flow fixtures that would reduce indoor water demand by 20% per CalGreen Standards.
With implementation of Mitigation Measure s GHG-1 through GHG-6, the P roject’s GHG emissions would be reduced to 4,322.47 MTCO2e per year resulting 37% reduction in GHGs when compared to the unmitigated scenario. Impacts are less than significant.
GHG Plan Consistency
The Project will be subject to the policies and ordinances pertaining to air quality and climate change stated in the City's General Plan. The City of Jurupa Valley is also participating the Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG) Subregional Climate Action Plan. The WRCOG MA 19041
Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
March 23, 2020
Greenhouse Gas Emissions Page 59
Subregional CAP establishes a community -wide emissions reduction target of 15% below 2010, following guidance from CARB and the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research. CARB and the California Attorney General have determined this approach to be consistent with the state- wide AB 32 goal of reducing emissions to 1990 levels.
As the City of Jurupa Valley does not currently have their own Climate Action Plan (CAP), and the goal of the Subregional CAP is to be consistent with AB-32 and the CARB Scoping Plan (based on the goals of AB -32), the Project has been co mpared to the applicable measures of the CARB Scoping Plan.
The California Governor issued Executive Order S -3-05, GHG Emission, in June 2005, which established the following reduction targets:
• 2010: Reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 2000 levels
• 2020: Reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels
• 2050: Reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 80 percent below 1990 levels.
In 2006, the California State Legislature adopted AB 32, the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006. AB 32 requires CARB, to adopt rules and regulations that would achieve GHG emissions equivalent to statewide levels in 1990 by 2020 through an enforceable statewide emission cap which was phased in starting in 2012.
By reducing the Project's GHG emissions by 37%, the Project w ould contribute to meeting the reduction targets stated above.
Furthermore, all of the post 2020 reductions in GHG emissions are addressed via regulatory requirements at the State level and the project will be required to comply with these regulations as they come into effect. Therefore, the Project will not conflict with any applicable plan, policy or regulation of an agency adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases.
Impacts are considered to be less than significant.

A de minimis condition is defined as "a condition that generally does not present a threat to human health or the environment and that generally would not be the subject of an enforcement action if brought to the attention of appropriate governmental agencies. Conditions determined to be de minimis conditions are not recognized environmental conditions nor controlled recognized environmental conditions."
Construction Activities
Heavy equipment that would be used during cons truction of th e Project would be fueled and maintained by substances such as oil, diesel fuel, gasoline, hydraulic fluid, and other liquid materials that would be considered hazardous if improperly stored or handled. In addition, materials such as paints, roofing materials, solvents, and other substances typically used in building construction would be located on the Project site during construction. Improper use, storage, or transportation of hazardous materials could result in accidental releases or spills, potentially posing health risks to workers, the public, and the environment. The potential for accidental releases and spills of hazardous materials during construction is a standard risk on all construction sites, and there would be no greater risk for improper h andling, transportation, or spills associated with future development that would be a reasonably consequence of the development of the Project than would occur on any other similar construction site. Construction contractors are required to comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations regarding hazardous materials, including but not limited requirements imposed by the Environmental Protection Agency, California Department of Toxic Substances Control, South Coast Air Quality Ma nagement District, and the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board. As such, impacts are less tha n significant.
Operational Activities
Federal and State Community-Right-to-Know laws allow the public access to information about the amounts and type s of chemicals that may be used by the businesses that would operate at the Project site. Laws also are in place that requires businesses to plan and prepare for possible MA 19041

Any business that operates any of the facilities at the Project site and that handles and/or stores substantial quantities of hazardous materials (§ 25500 of California Health and Safety Code, Division 20, Chapter 6.95) would be required to prepare and submit a Hazardous Materials Business Emergency Plan (HMBEP) to the Riverside County Department of Environmental Health (RCDEH) in order to register the business as a hazardous materials handler.
Such business is also required to comply with California’s Hazardous Materials Release Response Plans and Inventory Law, wh ich require immediate reporting to Riverside County Fire Department and State Office of Emergency Services regarding any release or threatened release of a hazardous material, regardless of the amount handled by the business. With mandatory regulatory compliance as required by PPP 3.9 -1 above, potential hazardous materials impacts associated with long-term operation of the Project is not expected to pose a significant hazard to the public or environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials, nor would the Project increase the potential for accident operations which could result in the release of hazardous materials into the environment.

Impact Analysis
Waste Discharge Requirements
Waste Discharge Requirements (WDRs) are issued by the Santa Ana Regional Board under the provisions of the California Water Code, Division 7 “Water Quality,” Article 4 “Waste Discharge Requirements.” These requirements regulate the discharge of wastes which are not made to surface waters but which may impact the region’s water quality by affecting underlying gr oundwater basins. Such WDRs are issued for Publically Owned Treatment Works’ wastewater reclamation operations, discharges of wastes from industries, subsurface waste discharges such as septic systems, sanitary landfills, dairies and a variety of other activities which can affect water quality.
Water Quality Requirements
The Porter-Cologne Act defines water quality objectives (i.e. standards) as “… the limits or levels of water quality constituents or characteristics which are established for the reasonable protection of beneficial uses of water or the prevention of nuisance within a specific area” (§13050 (h)).
Construction Impacts
Construction of t he Project would involve clearing, grading, paving, utility installation, building construction, and the installation of landscaping, which would result in the generation of potential water quality pollutants such as silt, debris, chemicals, paints, and other solvents with the potential to adversely affect water quality. As such, short -term water quality impac ts have the potential to occur during construction activities in the absence of any protective or avoidance measures.

Hydrology and Water Quality Page 69
Pursuant to the requirements of the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board and the City of Jurupa Va lley, the Project proponent will be required to obtain a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Municipal Stormwater Permit for construction activities. The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit is required for all Projects that include construction activities, such as clearing, grading, and/or excavation that disturb at least one acre of total land area.
Compliance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit and the Santa Ana River Basin Water Quality Control Program involves the prepar ation and implementation of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan for construction -related activities, including grading. The Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan would specify the Best Management Practices that the Project would be required to implement during construction activities to ensure that all potential pollutants of concern are prevented, minimized, and/or otherwise appropriately treated prior to being discharged from the site.
Operational Impacts
Storm water pollutants commonly associated with the type of land uses that could occupy the proposed buildings include sediment /turbidity, nutrients, trash and debris, oxygen -demanding substances, organic compounds, bacteria and viruses, oil and grease, and pesticides.
Pursuant to the requirements of the City’s National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit, a Water Quality Management Plan is required for managing t he quality of storm water or urban runoff that flows from a developed site after construction is completed and the facilities or structures are occupied and/or operational. A Water Quality Management Plan describes the Best Management Practices that will be implemented and maintained throughout the life of a project to prevent and minimize water pollution that can be caused by storm water or urban runoff.
The site is bounded on 3 sides, 2 sides by streets on the west and northeast and the 3rd side the south by existing homes. Both of the streets will be improved as part of this project. On the south are existing homes will have a new wall constructed and a shallow landscaping / retention area to help desilt and clarify the water before it will be picked up by catch basins and conveyed to the underground detention basin. The area is designed for only 6” depth of water to allow for water to settle. At 6” in depth the water will flow into the catch basins. If the basins were to plug up, the water will get to a depth of 1’ before the water will overflow to the next basin and so on till it will eventually flow to the above ground detention basin in the southeast corner of the site. All of these basins are below the adjacent grade to the south to keep the water from flowing to the south and from the site. The wall along the south property line will keep the water from leaving the site and flowing to the south.
Based on the analysis above, with implementation of PPP 3.10 -1 through PPP 3.10 -5, impacts are less than significant.
3.10(b) Substantially decrease groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that the project may impede sustainable groundwater management of the basin?

Impact Analysis
Groundwater Supply
The Project site would be served with potable water by the Jurupa Community Services District.
Domestic water supplies from this service provider are reliant on groundwater from the Chino Groundwater Basin as a primary source.
The Chino Basin was adjudicated by the California Superior Court in 1978 to regulate the amount of groundwater that can be pumped from the basin by creating the Chino Basin Water master to oversee management of water rights. The Jurupa Community Services District currently has total production water rights of 14,659 AFY from the Chino Basin. In addition, the District has rights to “carry over” supplies of water that was previously not used. Due to the existing regulations related to groundwater pumping that are implemented by the Chino Basin Watermaster, the Jurupa Community Services District would not pump substantial ground water amounts that could result in a substantial depletion of groundwater supplies.
Groundwater Recharge
Development of the Project would increase impervious surface coverage on the site which would in turn reduce the amount of direct infiltration of runoff into the ground. This would have a less than significant impact on groundwater recharge in the areas of the Chino Groundwater Basin that are managed for that purpose, since those recharge areas do not encompass the Project site.
Based on the above analysis, impacts to groundwater supplies and recharge would be less than significant and no mitigation measures are required
3.10(c) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river or through the addition of impervious surfaces, in a manner that would:

Existing Condition
The site drains from west to southeast, where all the water drains to Van Buren Blvd. at the southeast corner of the site.
Post-Development Condition
The site is bounded on 3 sides, 2 sides by streets on the west and northeast and the 3rd side the south by existing homes. Both of the streets will be improved as part of this project. On the south are existing homes will h ave a new wall constructed and a shallow landscaping / retention area to help desilt and clarify the water before it will be picked up by catch basins and conveyed to the underground detention basin. The area is designed for only 6” depth of water to allow for water to settle. At 6” in depth the water will flow into the catch basins. If the basins were to plug up, the water will get to a depth of 1’ before the water will overflow to the next basin and so on till it will eventually flow to the above ground detention basin in the southeast corner of the site. All of these basins are below the adjacent grade to the south to keep the water from flowing to the south and from the site. The wall along the south property line will keep the water from leaving the sit e and flowing to the south.
Conclusion
Based on the design of the Project’s storm water management system as described above and with implementation of PPP 3.10 -1 through 3.10 -4,
all storms have been reduced below the pre-
developed condition to not incur any additional downstream flooding. Impacts are less than significant.

Sensitive r eceptors that may be affected by project construction and operational noise include existing residences to the west, and south.
General Plan Noise Standards
General Plan Noise Element Policy NE 1.3 states:
“New or Modified Stationary Noise Sources . Noise created by new stationary noise sources, or by existing stationary noise sources that undergo modifications that may increase noise levels, shall be mitigated so as not exceed the noise level standards of Figure 7 -3. This policy does not apply to noise levels associated with agricultural operations existing in 2017.”
The Project is an commercial use and according to Figure 7-3 of the General Plan, a noise level of up to 70 dBA is considered to be “n ormally acceptable” and up to 77.5 dBA as is considered to be “conditionally acceptable.”
Construction Noise
Project construction would include site preparation, grading, building constru ction, architectural coating, and paving of the commercial development and associated parking lot. As shown on Table 14, noise levels generated by heavy construction equipment can range from approximately 75 dBA to 90 dBA when measured at 50 feet.

Typical operating cycles for these types of construction equipment may involve one or two m inutes of full power operation followed by three to four minutes at lower power settings. Noise levels will be loudest during the grading phase. A likely worst-case construction noise scenario during grading assumes the use of 1 -grader, 1-dozer, 2-excavators, 2-scrapers and 2-backhoes operating at 50 feet from the nearest sensitive receptor. Assuming a usage factor of 40 percent for each piece of equipment, unmitigated noise levels at 50 feet have the potential to reach 81 dBA Leq at the nearest sensitive r eceptors during building constructionwhich takes into account the existing wall at the southern property line separating the project sitefrom the residences. The existing wall will provide approximately 9 dB of reduction due to the height and current desig n. Noise levels for the other construction phases would be lower, approximately 76 dBA.
Per Section 11.05.020 (9) of the Municipal Code, construction activities occurring between the hours of 6:00 AM and 6:00 PM during the months of June through September and between 7:00 AM and 6:00 PM during the months of October through May are exempt from noise standards.
Regardless of the Project’s consistency with the time limitation on construction noise per the Municipal Code as described above, construction act ivities, especially those involving heavy equipment, will result in noise levels up to 76 dBA. Therefore, the following mitigation measure is required to reduce construction noise impacts to the maximum extent feasible:
Mitigation Measure (MM)
Mitigation Measure NOI -1-Construction Noise Mitigation Plan . Prior to the issuance of a grading permit, the developer is required to submit a construction -related noise mitigation plan to the City Planning Department for review and approval. The plan must depict the location of construction equipment and how the noise from this equipment will be mitigated during construction of this project. In addition, the plan shall require that the following notes are included on grading plans and building plans. Project contract ors shall be required to ensure compliance with the notes and permit periodic inspection of the construction site by City of Jurupa Valley staff or its designee to confirm compliance. These notes also shall be specified in bid documents issued to prospecti ve construction contractors.
“a) Haul truck deliveries shall be limited to between the hours of 6:00am to 6:00pm during the months of June through September and 7:00am to 6:00pm during the months of October through May.
b) Construction contractors shall equip all construction equipment, fixed or mobile, with properly operating and maintained mufflers, consistent with manufacturers’ standards.
c) All stationary construction equipment shall be placed in such a manner so that emitted noise is directed away from any sensitive receptors adjacent to the Project site.
d) Construction equipment staging areas shall be located the greatest distance between the staging area and the nearest sensitive receptors.”
With implementation of Mitigation Measure NOI-1, impacts are less than significant.
Operational Noise (Stationary)
MA 19041
Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration
March 23, 2020
Noise Page 80
The operational stationary noise impacts associated with the proposed project would include condenser unit noise from the rooftop HVAC units, and loading/unloading, deliveries, trash truck activities from the rear service area, and the car wash. A total of sixteen (16) receptors were modeled to evaluate the proposed project’ s operational impact. As shown in Exhibit 3, Operational Noise Levels, a receptor is denoted by a yellow dot. All yellow d ots represent either a property line or a sensitive receptor such as an outdoor sensitive area (courtyard, patio, backyard, etc). Receptor number one (1) was used as a calibration point to ensure accuracy for the car wash blower output noise levels and com pared to the manufacturer’s sound level cutsheet data. It should be noted that the model includes a proposed 8-foot wall on the south property lines.
As shown in Exhibit 3, operational noise levels at the adjacent uses are anticipated to range between 38.1 dBA to 48.7 dBA Leq (depending on the location). These noise projections to the adjacent uses are below the City’s 55 dBA residential limit. T he project will increase the worst-case noise level by approximately 0.0 to 0.1 dBA Leq at residential receptors (R2 – R16). It takes a change of 3 dBA to hear a noticeable difference. The incre ase in noise level is below the typical noticeable difference in change of noise levels.
However, because the ambient existing noise levels exceed the City’s noise requirements for residential uses in the Project area, the following mitigation measures are required so as not to exacerbate the existing conditions and reduce impacts to the maximum extent feasible.
Mitigation Measures (MM’s)
Mitigation Measure NOI -2-Sound Wall : Prior to the issuance of building permits, the final site plan shall include an 8 -foot high wall on the property lines separating the project from any existing residences. The wall shall consist of decorative concrete block and shall have no decorative c utouts or other line-of-sight openings between shielded areas and the noise source.
Mitigation Measure NOI -3-HVAC Equipment. Prior to the issuance of building permits, the building plans shall require that any rooftop or ground mounted HVAC units shall be positioned at a physical distance as far as plausible from adjacent residences. In addition, the equipment shall be shielded by a parapet wall with a height equal or greater than the equipment. The height of the wall must be taller than HVAC and be designed to completely shield any noise that may be able to flank around the wall.
With implementation of Mitigation Measures NOI -2 and NOI -3, impacts related to stationary operational noise are less than significant.
Offsite Traffic Noise Impacts.
The primary source of noise generated by the Project will be from the vehicle traffic generated by the vehicle ingress and egress to the Project site. The City of Jurupa Valley considers a project to result in a significant traffic-related noise impact if traffic g enerated by that project would cause or contribute to exterior noise levels at sensitive receptor locations in excess of 65 dBA and the project’s contribution to the noise environment equals 3.0 dBA or more. (A change of 3.0 dBA is considered “barely perce ptible” by the human ear and changes of less than 3.0 dBA generally cannot be perceived except in carefully controlled laboratory environments).
The Project is anticipated to change the noise level 0.4 to 0.5 dBA CNEL. Although there is a nominal increase along these Van Buren Boulevard and Rutile Street , the proposed increase would still be MA 19041
Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration

Noise Page 81
below the 65 dBA CNEL residential standard at any off- site receptors. The Existing Plus Project 65 dBA contour would extend an additional 29 from the centerline for t he Van Buren Boulevard and 8 feet from the centerline of Rutile Street. All existing residences are located behind existing barriers and/or are located outside the 65 dBA contour. Although there is an increase in traffic noise levels the impact is consider ed less than significant as the noise levels at or near any existing proposed sensitive receptor would be 65 dBA CNEL or less and the change in noise level is less than 3 dBA.

Impact Analysis
Construction Vibration
Construction of the Project will not employ any pile dr iving, rock blasting, or rock crushing equipment during construction activities, which are the primary sources of ground-borne noise and vibration during construction. Outdoor site preparation for the proposed Project is expected to require the use of a large bulldozer and loaded trucks, which would generate ground -borne vibration of up to 87 VdB (0.089 PPV [in/sec]) and 86 VdB (0.076 PPV [in/sec] when measured at 25 feet, respectively.
At a distance of 50 feet (distance residential structure from the property line), a large bulldozer would yield a worst -case 0.042 PPV (in/sec) which may be perceptible for short periods of time during grading along the southern property line of the Project site, but is below any threshold of damage. The impact is less than significant and no mitigation is required.
Operational Vibration
The proposed Project is a retail use and would not g enerate significant levels of vibration. In addition, vibration levels generated from Project-related traffic on the adjacent roadways are unusual for on -road vehicles because the rubber tires and suspension systems of on-road vehicles provide vibration isolation. Vibration generated from project -related traffic on the adjacent roadways would be less than significant, and no vibration reduction measures are required.
3.13 (c) For a project located within the vicinity of a private airstrip or an airport land use plan or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels?

Impact Analysis
The Project would not directly result in population growth because it does not propose any residential dwelling units . According to the General Plan Economic Sustainability Element : “The City is a net exporter of jobs, with more residents working outside the City than non-residents working inside the City.” (General Plan p. 11 -3.). Thus, it is anticipated that new employees generated by the Project would be within commuting distance and would not generate needs for any housing.
Typically, growth would be considered a significant impact pursuant to CEQA if it directly or indirectly affects the ability of agencies to provide needed public services and requires the expansion or new construction of public facilities and utilities.
Water and sewer service to the Project site will be provided by the Jurupa Community Services District. The Project will connect to the existing 10-inch diameter water main in Rutile Street and to the existing 8-inch diameter sewer main at the intersection of Rutile Street and Woodbridge Lane.
No additional infrastructure will be needed to serve the Project site other than connection to th e existing infrastructure in the vicinity of the Project site.

Project Design Features (PDF)
There are no Project Design Features applicable to the Project relating to this issue.
Impact Analysis
The Riverside County Fire Department provides fire protect ion services to the Project site . The nearest fire station is the Glen Avon Fire Station No. 17, an existing station located approximately
1.8 roadway miles north of the Project site at 10400 San Sevaine Way.
Development of the Project would impact fire protection services by placing an additional demand on existing fire protection resources should its resources not be augmented. To offset the increased demand for fire protection services, the Project would be conditioned by the City to provide a minimum of fire safety and support fire su ppression activities, including compliance with State and local fire codes, fire sprinklers, a fire hydrant system, paved access, and secondary access routes.
The Project would be required to comply with the provisions of Municipal Code Chapter 3.75 which requires payment of the Development Impact Fee to assist the City in providing for fire protection services. Payment of the Development Impact Fee would ensure that the Project provides fair share funds for the provision of additional public services, in cluding fire protection services, which may be applied to fire facilities and/or equipment, to offset the incremental increase in the demand for fire protection services that would be created by the Project.
In addition, as required by the City’s Inter -Agency Project Review Request process , the Project plans were routed to the Fire Department for review and comment on the impacts to providing fire protection services. The Fire Department did not indicate that the Project would result in the need for new or physically altered fire facilities in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives.
Based on the above analysis, with implementation of PPP 3.15 -1 and PPP 3.15-2, impacts related to fire protection are less than significant.

1) Van Buren Blvd/Bellegrave Ave . – Re-time/optimize existing signalized intersection for the PM peak hour to allow for a longer westbound left -turn phase. Cycle length to remain the same. This improvement may require additional equipment as determined by the Public Works Department.
2) Rutile St/Galena Ave . (N) – Convert existing one -way stop controlled intersection into a signalized intersection. Signal to be coordinated with nearby railroad crossing, existing intersection of Van Buren Blvd/Rutile St., and future traffic signal on Van Buren at project site entrance. Rutile St/Galena Ave. signal will operate as an additional pre- signal for the Van Buren/Rutile intersection due to the short intersection spacin g. Applicant will be responsible for furnishing any and all new equipment and parts required for the signal(s) and signals coordination; i.e. a second master controller that can “oversee” the operations of the various signal sets to allow for coordination and the RR pre-emption operation.
3) Etiwanda Ave/Van Buren Blvd . – Re-time/optimize existing signalized intersection for the both the AM/PM peak hour to accommodate added volumes. Cycle length to remain the same. This intersection is coordinated with t he Caltrans traffic signal at the WB SR60 Off- Ramp and the new traffic signal at the intersection of Etiwanda Avenue and Riverside Drive. A coordination plan shall be prepared between all of these signals.
MM TR -2: Fair Share Payment- Van Buren Blvd/Bell egrave Ave. - The project applicant shall contribute fair share funding as determined by the Public Works Department for the following improvement prior to issuance of the first occupancy permit: Van Buren Blvd/Bellegrave Ave – Improve northbound approach from two existing northbound through lanes, to three northbound through lanes.
Transit Service Analysis
There are no existing transit services within a one -quarter mile walking distance of the proposed Project site. The nearest transit service is Rive rside Transit Route 21, with a stop at the Rutile Street/Jurupa Road intersection. In addition, the Project is not proposing to construct any improvements would interfere with any future bus service. There is no impact.
Bicycle & Pedestrian Facilities Analysis
The Project is not proposing to construct a ny improvements that will interfere with bicycle and pedestrian use. Pedestrian and bicycle access will be ava ilable to the Project sit e from Van Buren Boulevard and Rutile Street . In addition, bicycle pa rking will be provided on the Project site.
Therefore, the Project will not conflict with an applicable plan, ordinance or policy applying to non- motorized travel. Impacts are less than significant.

Transportation Page 99
LOS has been used as the basis for determining the significance of traffic impacts as standard practice in CEQA documents for decades. In 2013, California Senate Bill (SB) 743 was passed, which is intended to balance the need for LOS for traffic planning with the need to build infill housing and mixed-use commercial developments within walking distance of mass transit facilities, downtowns, and town centers and to provide greater flexibility to local governments to balance these often competing needs. At full implementation of SB 743, the California Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) is expected to replace LOS as the metric against which traffic impacts are evaluated, with a metric based on vehicle miles traveled (VMT). On December 28, 2018, the OPR adopted several new changes to the CEQA Guidelines, including the requirement that lead agencies implement a VMT -based analysis, rather than a LOS metric, in reviewing traffic impacts. These changes to the Guidelines, however, also provide a “grace period,” and do not require lead agencies to apply a VMT metric until July 1, 2020. Because this Mitigated Negative Declaration is circulated for public review before July 1, 2020, the City, as the lead agency, was not required to use a VMT metric in its analysis of traffic impacts. For this reason, this Mitigated Negative Declaration uses a LOS metric in its traffic analysis as described in Sectio n 3.17 (a) above, and is thus in compliance with the standards in effect at the time of its circulation. As such, there is no impact.

Impact Analysis
Access to the site is from V an Buren Boulevard and Rutile Street which are existing improved roadways abutting the site. Van Buren Boulevard and Rutile Street are both fully improved roadways that currently meet City standards. In addition, the Project is proposing to construct one (1) new driveway approach each on both Van Buren Boulevard and Rutile Street that will also meet City standards.
The Project is a loc ated in an area with residential , commercial, and industrial uses. T he Project would not be incompatible with existing development in the surrounding area to the extent that it would create a transportation hazard as a result of an in compatible use (e.g. farm equipment) .
Accordingly, the Project would not substantially increase hazards due to a design feature or incompatible use. Impacts would be less than significant and mitigation is not required.

Assembly Bill (AB) 52 created a process for consultation with California Native American Tribes in the CEQA process. Tribal Governments can request consultation wi th a lead agency and give input into potential impacts to tribal cultural resources before the agency decides what kind of environmental assessment is appropriate for a proposed project.
The Planning Department notified the following California Native Am erican Tribes per the requirements of AB52:
• Gabrieleño Band of Mission Indians – Kizh Nation
• Soboba Band Luiseño Indians
• Torres Martinez Band of Cahuilla Indians.
The Soboba Band Luiseño Indians requested consultation and indicated that tribal cultural resources could be present on the site . As a result the AB52 consultation process, the following mitigation measure is required:
Mitigation Measure (MM)
TCR-1- NATIVE AMERICAN MONITORING, TREATMENT OF DISCOVERIES, AND DISPOSITION OF DISCOVERIES.

The Project will connect to the existing 8-inch diameter water main in Rutile Street.
Wastewater Treatment Facilities
The Project will connect to the existing 8-inch diameter sewer main at the intersection of Rutile Street and Woodbridge Lane.
Storm Drainage Facilities
The site is bounded on 3 sides, 2 sides by streets on the west and northeast and the 3rd side the south by existing homes. Both of the streets will be improved as part of this project. On the south are existing homes will have a new wall constructed and a shallow landscaping / retention area to help desilt and clarify the water before it will be picked up by catch basins and conveyed to the underground detention basin. The area is designed for only 6” depth of water to allow for water to settle. At 6” in depth the water will flow into the catch basins. If the basins were to plug up, the water will get to a depth of 1’ before the water will overflow to the next basin and so on till it will eventually flow to the above ground detention basin in the southeast corner of the site. All of these basins are below the adjacent grade to the south to keep the water from flowing to the south and from the site. The wall along the south property line will keep the water from leaving the site and flowing to the south.

Impact Analysis
Water use for the Project was estimated by using The Californ ia Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod). The model can be used to estimate water usage for analysis in CEQA documents. The Project is estimated to have a water demand of 8. 15 million gallons per year (or 22 ,328 gallons per day).
Water supplies to the P roject area are provided by Jurupa Community Services District, which serves 40.5 square miles of western Riv erside County and includes the Project site. Based on the most recent Jurupa Community Services District Urban Water Management Plan (2015) , the Jurupa Community Services District had a water demand of 22,381 acre- feet, and based on land use and growth projections it anticipated a demand of 24,997 acre- feet in 2020, which would be a 10 percent increase over 2015 demands (an increase of 2,616 acre- feet). The Urban Water Management Plan details that the Jurupa Community Services District has water supply to meet the projected demands over the next 20 years and beyond.
The proposed Project land uses would be consistent with existing land use and growth projections that are included in the Urban Water Management Plan projections; and thus, is included in the Urban Water Management Plan projections and Jurupa Community Services District would be able to meet all of the anticipated water supply needs. The W ater and Sewer Availability Letter (Appendix J) issued for the Project by the Jurupa Community Services District indicates that the District’s current water supply exceeds the projected daily demand projected in the next five (5) years. Therefore, the proposed Project would have sufficient water supplies available to serve the Project, and impacts would be less than significant.

Impact Analysis
Sanitary sewer service to the Project site would be provided by the Jurupa Community Services District (“District”). The District purchases treatment capacity at the Riverside Water Quality Control Plant (RWQCP), which is located on Acorn Street in the City of Riverside.
Wastewater use for the Project was estimated by using Th e California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod). The model can be used to estimate wastewater usage for analysis in CEQA documents.
The Project is estimated to have an indoor water demand of 8.15 million gallons per year which includes wastewater. Assuming (a maximum) that all the water is discharged to the sewer system, the increase in wastewater from the proposed Project would be 25.0 AF/YR (acre feet per year).
The current capacity of the RWQCP is 40 million gallons per day (approximately 123 acre -feet per day). The City of Riverside is currently in the early planning stages for construction of additions to the plant. Quantities of wastewater collected and conveyed by the District to the RWQCP in 2015 was 2,212 AF/yr. The quantities projected to be co nveyed by District and treated by the City of Riverside over the next 25 years are: 2,290 AF/yr in 2020; 2,310 AF/yr in 2025; 2,320 AF/yr in 2030; 2,330 AF/yr in 2035; and 2,350 SF/yr in 2040. In addition, the Water and Sewer Availability Letter (Appendix J) issued for the Project by the Jurupa Community Services District indicates that the District presently maintains excess wastewater capacity at the RWQCP.
Therefore, implementation of the proposed Project would not result in impacts related to wastewater treatment provider capacity, and impacts would be less than significant.

Construction Related Impacts
Waste generated during the construction phase of the P roject would primarily consist of discarded materials from the construction of streets , common areas, infrastructure installation, and other project-related construction activities. The California Green Building Standards Code (“CALGreen’), requires all newly constructed buildings to prepare a Waste Management Plan and divert construction waste through recycling and source reduction methods. The City of Jurupa Valley Building and Safety Department reviews and approves all new construction projects required to submit a Waste Management Plan. Mandatory compliance with CALGreen solid waste requirements will ensure that construction waste impacts are less than significant.
In addition, a ccording to the Cal Recycle Facility/Site Summary Details website accessed on September 30 , 2019 , the landfills serving the Project site as described below rece ive well below their maximum permitted daily disposal volume and demolition and construction waste generated by the Project is not anticipated to cause these landfills to exceed their maximum permitted daily disposal volume. Furthermore, none of these regi onal landfill facilities are expected to reach their total maximum permitted disposal capacities during the Project’s construction period. As such, these regional landfill facilities would have sufficient daily capacity to accept construction solid waste generated by the commercial facility.
Operational Related Impacts
The California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod) is a statewide land use emissions computer model designed to provide a uniform platform for government agencies to quantify potential ai r quality criteria pollutant emissions associated with both construction and operations from a variety of land use projects. The model can also be used to estimate solid waste generation rates for various types of land uses for analysis in CEQA documents. Waste disposal rates by land use and overall composition of municipal solid waste in California is primarily based on CalRecycle data. Based on solid waste generation usage obtained from CalEEMod, the Project would generate appr oximately 66 tons of solid waste per year or 361 pounds per day.
According to the Cal Recycle Facility/Site Summary Details w ebsite accessed on January 3, 2020, the Badlands Sanitary Landfill has a permitted disposal capacity of 4,000 tons per day with a remaining capacity of 15,748,799 cubic yards. The Badlands Sanitary Landfill is estimated to reach capacity, at the earliest time, in the year 2022 . The El Sobrante Landfill is has a permitted disposal capacity of 16,034 tons per day with a remaining capacity of 145,530,000 tons. T he El Sobrante Landfill is estimated to reach capacity, at the earliest time, in the year 2045.
Solid waste generated during long-term operation of the Project would be disposed at the Badlands Sanitary Landfill and/or the El Sobrante Landfill. During long -term operation, the Project’s solid waste generation of 361 pounds per day would represent a minimal amount of the daily permitted disposal capacity at the Badlands Sanitary Landfill and the El Sobrante Landfill.
The Project is not anticipated to cause these landfills to exceed their maximum permitted daily disposal volume. Because the Project would generate a relatively small am ount of solid waste per day, as compared to the permitted daily capacities for Badlands Sanitary Landfill and the El Sobrante Landfill, these regional landfill facilities would have sufficient daily capacity to accept solid waste generated by the Project.

The California Integrated Waste Management Act established an integrated waste management system that focuse d on source reduction, recycling, composting, and land disposal of waste. In addition, the Act established a 50% waste reduction requirement for cities and counties by the year 2000, along with a process to ensure environmentally safe disposal of waste that could not be diverted. Per the requirements of the Integrated Waste Management Act, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors adopted the Riverside Countywide Integrated Waste Management Plan which outlines the goals, policies, and programs the County an d its cities will implement to create an integrated and cost effective waste management system that complies with the provisions of California Integrated Waste Management Act and its diversion mandates.
The Project operator (s) would be required to coordin ate with the waste hauler to develop collection of recy clable materials for the commercial facility on a common schedule as set forth in applicable local, regional, and State programs. Recyclable materials that would be recycled by the commercial facility include paper products, glass, aluminum, and plastic.
Additionally, the Project’s waste hauler would be required to comply with all applicable local, State, and Federal solid waste disposal standards, thereby ensuring that the solid waste stream to the landfills that serve the commercial facility are reduced in accordance with existing regulations.
Based on the above analysis, impacts are less than significant.

Impact Analysis
A wildfire is a nonstructural fire that occurs in vegetative fuels, excluding prescribed fire. Wildfires can occur in undeveloped areas and spread to urban areas where the landscape and structures are not designed and maintained to be ignition resi stant. As stated in the State of Calif ornia’s General Plan Guidelines: “California’s increasing population and expansion of development into previously undeveloped areas is creating more ’wildland -urban interface’ issues with a corresponding increased risk of loss to human life, natural resources, and economic assets associated with wildland fires .” To address this issue, the state passed Senate Bill 1241 to require that General Plan Safety Elements address the fire severity risks in State Responsibility Ar eas (SRAs) and Local Responsibility Areas (LRAs). As shown in General Plan Figure 8 -11, Jurupa Valley contains several areas within Very High and High fire severity zones that are located in an SRA. SRAs are those areas of the state in which the responsibility of preventing and suppressing fires is primarily that of the Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, also known as CAL FIRE.
According to General Plan Figure 8 -11, Wildfire severity zones in Jurupa Valley, the Project site is located in the “Urba n-Unzoned” fire hazard area and is thus not located in or near state responsibility areas or lands classified as very high fire hazard severity zones. As such, there are no impacts.
