-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Accept the improvements for Capital Improvement Program (CIP) No. 17-01, Gale Web, Kids- R-#1 Action Sports Park located at 26533 Craig Avenue; and
2. Authorize the City Clerk’s office to file the Notice of Completion with the Riverside County Recorder’s Office.
DISCUSSION
The Evans Park Pump Track and Bike Trail, now named the Gale Webb, Kids-R-#1, Action Sports Park is located on a six-acre lot on the southeastern corner of Evans Road and Craig Avenue.
The construction of the pump track was completed October 2022, however, the second phase consisted of the street expansion portion. This included the construction and installation of various improvements along the southern section of the pump track on Craig Avenue including curb, gutter, driveway approach, an expansion of the roadway, and a new water line.
On September 21, 2022, City Council approved an agreement to Roadway Engineering and Construction Corporation for the pump track street expansion portion of the project with a construction budget of $466,042. The contract included the construction and installation of various improvements along the southern section of the pump track on Craig Avenue including curb, gutter, driveway approach, and expansion of the roadway. One change order totaling $8,820 was necessary. The change order was due to a delay in approval of the contractor insurance by Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD). The final construction cost for the project was $474,862.
Filing a Notice of Completion (NOC) protects the city from future claims against the project by providing proper notification to each contractor, subcontractor, and material supplier that the Item Title: 10.28

TPM No. 38139 (PLN22-0041) was approved by the Planning Commission for the consolidation of eight parcels into one industrial parcel. The Project site is approximately 40.03 gross acres and
36.81 net acres.
PP No. PLN21-0370 was approved by the Planning Commission for construction and operation of a 700,037 square-foot warehouse/industrial building with 10,000 square feet of office space and 690,037 square feet of warehouse space on a 36.8-net acre (40.03 gross acre) site. There would be three points of access on Byers Road and two points of access on Wheat Street.
Associated facilities and improvements of the Project include on-site landscaping, parking, regional Project access, and off-site improvements (roadway improvements, storm drain, utilities).
The Project is generally located west of Interstate 215 (I-215) and south of Ethanac Road, within the City of Menifee (City), County of Riverside, State of California. The Project is north of Corsica Lane, south of Kuffel Road, east of Wheat Street, and west of Byers Road. The Project site is located in the Economic Development Corridor-Northern Gateway (EDC-NG) zone of the City and is currently bordered by a scattering of existing rural residential properties (1-5 acres) and vacant land. The Project site consists of eight parcels (Assessor Parcel Numbers: 330-190-002 through -005 and 330-190-010 through -013).

Appeal No. PLN24-0182
The City of Perris filed an appeal of the Planning Commission’s August 14, 2024 approval of TPM No. 38139 (PLN22-0041) and PP No. PLN21-0370, claiming areas of the Project (as outlined below), including the environmental analysis, were not adequately analyzed/addressed. The appeal letter raises concerns with the following:
1. Incomplete Project Description
2. Insufficient Analysis of Transportation Impacts
3. Insufficient Analysis of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions
4. Insufficient Analysis of Air Quality Impacts
5. Insufficient Analysis of Noise Impacts
6. Inadequate Project Alternatives Analysis
In response to the City of Perris appeal letter, staff, in conjunction with the City’s California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Consultant, has prepared detailed responses to each topic as an attachment to this report. A summary of the appellant’s concerns are provided below:
1. Incomplete Project Description
The appeal letter asserts there are multiple aspects of the Project, particularly offsite improvements, which were not presented in the Project Description of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and therefore the potential impacts of those aspects were not evaluated.
However, the City of Perris does not provide sufficient evidence that supports how the Final EIR failed to address their concerns or why the EIR is an inadequate environmental document pursuant to CEQA as it relates to an incomplete Project Description.
A Project Description should not supply extensive detail beyond that needed for evaluation and review of the environmental impact. Because the off-site improvements associated with the proposed Project do not involve significant construction that would impact any of the analyses or conclusions in the EIR, mention of off-site improvements is not required to be included in the Project Description. The off-site improvements associated with the proposed Project are not considered intensive construction work that would expand the scope of project construction impacts already discussed thoroughly in the Draft EIR.
2. Insufficient Analysis of Transportation Impacts.
The appeal letter raises concerns regarding the environmental impact analysis performed for the Project regarding traffic impacts, specifically related to geometric hazards, the preparation of a global traffic study, existing traffic volumes, Project trip generation rates, particular intersection operations, and the improvement requirements for direct impacts.
Regarding geometric hazards and intersection operations, the intersection of Barnett Road/Case Road at Ethanac Road operates as one intersection and it was determined that it should be analyzed as one for analysis purposes. The Project does not take direct access from Barnett Road and would add eastbound and westbound through traffic on Ethanac Road at the intersection of Ethanac Road at Barnett Road/Case Road. Therefore, the Project would not directly impact the turn pockets at the intersection, as is stated, and would not create hazards due to geometric design features. In addition, contrary to Item Title: 11.1

comments in the appeal letter, no improvements are necessary of the Project at this intersection and the Project would not create hazards due to geometric design features.
For the comment related to a global traffic study, Ethanac Road is currently a truck route and the potential for a truck corridor south of Ethanac Road is uncertain. Therefore, the Project Traffic Study analyzed a worst-case scenario based on the potential use and the items known certain at the time of the preparation of the Project Traffic Study.
In regard to the existing traffic volumes, traffic counts in the Project Traffic Study were determined to be reasonable, as well as conservative in some locations as noted and described in more detail in the attached responses.
In addition, the appeal letter argues the trip generation rates that were used are outdated.
Staff disagrees with this assessment as the rates used are widely accepted and used by many cities in the Inland Empire. In addition, basing the trip estimates on the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) methodology (inclusive of ITE 11th Edition for the passenger car/truck splits), as is suggested, would not change the significance determinations in the Draft EIR and would not require new or modified mitigation measures.
3. Insufficient Analysis of GHG Emissions.
The appeal letter cites concerns related to what it describes as unassessed and unevaluated improvements, particularly the offsite improvements not contained in the Project Description of the EIR, and outdated modeling of GHG emissions.
Refer to Subpoint 1 above regarding City of Perris’ argument that the off-site improvements were absent from the Project Description of the EIR and that the GHG analysis was flawed.
The appeal also notes the GHG Emissions Assessment used CalEEMod version 2020.4 and acknowledges SCAQMD recommended all air quality analyses conducted after December 21, 2022 use the latest version of CalEEMod. Consistent with SCAQMD’s recommendations, the air quality and GHG modeling for the Project was initially completed in August 2022 with additional modeling completed in October 2022 to incorporate mitigation required by the Health Risk Assessment (HRA). Therefore, all modeling for the Project was completed before CalEEMod 2022 was approved for full release. As a result, CalEEMod version 2020.4 was the latest available software at the time the analysis was conducted.
The appeal letter also states that the installation, maintenance and regular testing of one or more emergency fire water pumps was not assessed. This comment is incorrect, as these emissions are addressed by the backup generator emissions evaluated in the Draft EIR. Further details are provided in the attached detailed responses.
4. Insufficient Analysis of Air Quality Impacts.
The appeal letter cites concerns related to what it describes as unevaluated improvements and mitigation lacking adequate performance standards. Specifically, the letter references Mitigation Measure (MM) AQ-3.

Again, refer to Subpoint 1 above regarding City of Perris’ argument that the off-site improvements were absent from the Project Description of the EIR and that the air quality analysis was flawed.
Regarding the City of Perris’ argument that the MM AQ-3 lacks adequate performance standards, MM AQ-3 requires the Project operator to submit a Transportation Demand Management (TDM) program to the City. The TMD program which would provide employees with information regarding the use of public transportation, carpooling/vanpooling, and walking or biking to work, rather than driving to work every day. The development and submission of this TDM is the performance standard for this mitigation measure and will help to reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT). In addition, although not acknowledged by the commenter, MM AQ-4, which requires all cargo handling equipment to be zero emissions, is the main source of air quality pollutant emission reduction. Implementation of these mitigation measures will reduce the air quality impacts to a less than significant level.
5. Insufficient Analysis of Noise Impacts.
The appeal letter cites concerns related to what it describes as incorrect thresholds and methodology related to noise impacts.
The commenter seems to suggest that a cumulative noise analysis was not prepared for the Project; however, cumulative noise impacts are discussed on pages 4.11-25 through
4.11-27 of the Draft EIR. The comment incorrectly states the Draft EIR does not identify a significant impact. However, as detailed in the attached responses, the Draft EIR identified the cumulative noise impact. However, the Draft EIR determines this impact would not be cumulatively considerable.
6. Inadequate Project Alternatives Analysis.
The appeal letter states the City failed to analyze a reasonable range of potentially feasible alternatives.
As stated in Final EIR Response to Comment, CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6 requires a project provide a range of reasonable alternatives to the project, or to the location of the project, which would feasibly attain most of the basic objectives of the project but would avoid or substantially lessen any of the significant effects of the project and evaluate the comparative merits of the alternatives. An EIR need not consider every conceivable alternative to a project. Rather it must consider a reasonable range of potentially feasible alternatives that will foster informed decision making and public participation. The City deemed that having two alternatives for the Project provides an adequate range of alternatives pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6, because those were the alternatives determined which could reduce the Project’s significant effects while still meeting most of the basic Project objectives.
Appeal No. PLN24-0169
The Golden State Environmental Justice Alliance (GSEJA) filed an appeal of the Planning Commission’s August 14, 2024 approval of TPM No. 38139 (PLN22-0041) and PP No. PLN 21- 0370, claiming the Planning Commission erred in its decision to approve the Project by Item Title: 11.1

determining the Project would not result in further impacts on an already pollution-burdened citizenry. GSEJA provided information depicting the severity of the level of pollution and health hazards the City of Menifee and its citizens are experiencing. The appeal letter reaffirms its concerns that were presented in its original letter dated April 26, 2024 (and again on August 11, 2024), which were responded to by staff, in conjunction with our CEQA Consultant, in the Final EIR.
The commenter provides a table of data which gives the false impression that the area surrounding the Project site is disproportionately impacted. However, the proposed Project would not result in significant and unavoidable air quality impacts. Localized air quality impacts would be less than significant and there are no significant air quality impacts to local residents as a result of approval of the proposed Project.
The original April 26, 2024 comment letter on the Draft EIR contained concerns from GSEJA regarding air quality, GHG emissions, land use and planning, transportation and traffic, growth inducing impacts, alternatives, and population and housing. In the appeal letter, GSEJA does not specifically argue with the adequacy of any of those City responses contained in the Final EIR.
As such, the previous responses to these resource topics are still appropriate, and no additional points were raised in the appeal letter which would require further analysis.
Environmental Determination
The Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. PC24-639 certifying an EIR on August 14, 2024 determining the Project will have a significant effect on the environment (related to GHG Emission). However, an EIR was prepared for this Project pursuant to the provisions of the CEQA.
Mitigation measures were made a condition of the approval of the Project and a Mitigation Reporting or Monitoring Plan was adopted for this Project. A Statement of Overriding Considerations was adopted for this Project and findings were made pursuant to the provisions of CEQA. Following the Project’s approval, a Notice of Determination (NOD) was filed with the Riverside County Clerk’s Office on August 16, 2024.
The Final EIR, as well as all its technical appendices, can be accessed for review on the City website: https://www.cityofmenifee.us/325/Environmental-Notices-Documents.
Public Notice
Public notices were distributed on October 27, 2024 for the November 6, 2024 City Council hearing. Notices were published in The Press Enterprise and notices were sent to owners within 300 feet of the Project site boundaries and to all relevant agencies, interested parties, and all who commented on the environmental document. On-site postings were provided.

CADO Menifee Industrial Warehouse Project
Perris Appeal Comments and Responses
A-1This comment explains that this letter is the City of Perris’ appeal letter in objection to the City of Menifee Planning Commission’s August 14, 2024 decision approving the Tentative Parcel Map and Plot Plan to permit the construction and operation of the CADO Menifee Industrial Warehouse Project (Project) and the Final Environmental Impact Report (EIR) approved for the Project. This comment does not raise any substantive issues with the Final EIR and therefore no further response is needed. The following responses were prepared to address the substantive comments raised in the rest of the City of Perris’ appeal letter. Please refer to Responses to Comments A-2 through A-64.
A-2This comment summarizes the Project and does not raise any specific comments regarding the Final EIR. No further response is warranted.
A-3This comment is a general description of the Green Valley Specific Plan (GVSP), a master-planned community within the City of Perris. No specific comments concerning the deficiency of the Final EIR were made, and, therefore, no further response is warranted.
A-4The City of Perris notes the residential units within the GVSP and the vicinity of the Project site but makes no specific claims on how the Final EIR did not adequately address impacts to surrounding residences. As addressed in the Final EIR Response to Comments G14, G16 and G18, Ethanac Road is currently a truck route. A global Traffic Study for the Menifee Economic Development Corridor (MEDC) area, including the addition of a truck corridor south of Ethanac Road, is currently being prepared in coordination with the City of Menifee and the City of Perris.
Any improvements to portions of intersections or roadways shared with the City of Perris would be coordinated between the City of Menifee and City of Perris prior to final engineering for the Project.
A-5The City of Perris states that the City of Menifee did not adequately address the City of Perris’ concerns expressed in the Project’s Notice of Preparation (NOP) scoping process, Draft EIR public review period, and following the Final EIR, but does not provide further detailed information why their concerns were not adequately addressed. No further response is warranted. Additionally, the City of Menifee believes all previous responses to Perris’s Draft EIR comment letter were thorough and adequate.
A-6This comment reiterates that the City of Perris’ letter constitutes an appeal of the Planning Commission’s approval of the Project but does not raise any specific deficiencies. Please refer to the following Responses to Comments A-7 through A-64 prepared in response to the City of Perris’ comments.
A-7This comment states that the City of Perris provided comments dated April 26 and August 14 on the Draft EIR’s Project Description. This comment is acknowledged, and the City of Menifee responded to all comments on the Draft EIR - see Response to Comments G3 through G7 in the Final EIR that were prepared in response to the City of Perris’ comment on the Project Description Item Title: 11.1

being inadequate. This comment does not provide any evidence how the Final EIR failed to address their comments or is an inadequate environmental document pursuant to the CEQA.
A-8The Project Traffic Study recommended that the intersection of Wheat Street at Ethanac Road (intersection #9) is anticipated to be right-in-right-out (RIRO) access. With this improvement, the intersection operates at an acceptable LOS and a traffic signal is not warranted. Therefore, no other improvements were recommended at intersection #9. Also, the Traffic Study recommended that a traffic signal be installed at the intersection of Ethanac Road at Byers Road (intersection #10). The recommended improvements for intersection #9 and intersection #10 were imposed on the Project as conditions of approval by the Planning Commission (see Condition of Approval 209).
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15124, a Project Description should not supply extensive detail beyond that needed for evaluation and review of the environmental impact. Because the off-site improvements associated with the proposed Project do not involve significant construction that would impact any of the analyses or conclusions in the EIR, mention of off-site improvements is not required to be included in the Project Description. The off-site improvements associated with the proposed Project are not considered intensive construction work that would expand the scope of project construction impacts already discussed thoroughly in the Draft EIR.
A-9Because the improvement of a 350-foot westbound left-turn lane at the intersection of Ethanac Road and Byers Road does not involve significant construction that would impact any of the analyses or conclusions in the EIR, mention of this off-site improvement is not required to be included in the Project Description. The comment incorrectly assumes that off-site impacts were not evaluated but does not provide any substantial evidence to support this claim. The impacts of project construction, include roadway improvements (i.e. noise, air quality, etc.), were included in the assumptions underlying the technical studies. The City explained in its Responses to Comments in the FEIR (G18 and G21) that there would be no operational/roadway geometric hazards caused by the 350 foot westbound left-turn lane. As such, the DEIR and FEIR adequately incorporated the 350-foot westbound left-turn lane at the intersection of Ethanac Road at Byers Road and all impacts associated therewith.
A-10See Responses to Comments A-8 and A-9.
A-11See Response A-9. As noted in Final EIR Response to Comment G7, the analysis included in the Draft EIR concerning this proposed improvement was provided for informational purposes only for the City’s use in evaluating the Project and considering conditions of approval outside of CEQA’s framework. The implementation of this improvement would be based on direct discussion between City staff and the Applicant and would be imposed via the Conditions of Approval process, not through CEQA. Nevertheless, any improvements to portions of intersections or roadways shared with the City of Perris would be coordinated between the City of Menifee and City of Perris prior to final offsite engineering for the Project. Additionally, the improvements associated with the proposed Project are not considered intensive construction work that would expand the scope of Project construction impacts already discussed thoroughly in the Draft EIR.
A-12The comment incorrectly assumes that off-site impacts were not evaluated but does not provide any substantial evidence to support this claim. Page 2-3 of the Draft EIR describes the Project site Item Title: 11.1

as 40.03 gross acres. However, CalEEMod output files in Appendix B1 and Appendix G, show that a total of 43.42 acres of development were analyzed as part of air quality and greenhouse gas assessments. The additional acres were included in the analysis under “other asphalt surfaces” to capture construction emissions associated with offsite roadway and infrastructure improvements. As a result, all potential offsite impacts including air quality impacts, energy use, and greenhouse gas emissions were evaluated in the Draft EIR.
A-13The Project includes an early-suppression fast-response (EFSR) fire sprinkler system and will use an electric or diesel-powered fire pump to provide additional water pressure. If an electric fire pump is installed, in the event that the building loses electricity, power for the electric fire pump will be provided by the emergency backup generator. As noted on page 4.2-17 and page 4.7-21 of the Draft EIR, emissions from emergency backup generators are included in the operational air quality and GHG analysis of the Project. The comment therefore incorrectly indicates that emergency fire water pump emissions are not addressed, as these emissions are addressed by the backup generator emissions in the Draft EIR.
However, diesel fuel consumption from the generator was not included in the energy analysis.
Conservatively assuming the emergency generator is tested for one hour per week as modeled in the air quality and GHG sections of the EIR instead of the half hour per week as required, the generator would consume 1,970 gallons of diesel per year. This would increase diesel fuel consumption by 0.99 percent, increasing from 199,539 gallons to 201,509 gallons per year. Due to the small increase in diesel consumption associated with the operation of the generator, the percentage increase of diesel fuel in Riverside County, associated with the Project would remain
0.08 percent as identified in Table 4.5-4: Project Annual Energy Use During Operations of the Draft EIR and impacts associated with energy would remain the same.
A-14The commenter notes that diesel powered fire pumps must be tested on a weekly basis for a minimum of 30 minutes. Conservatively, the analysis for this Project assumed that diesel generators would operate for one hour every week and included those emissions in Table 4.2-9 and 4.2-10 of the Air Quality Section and Table 4.7-3 of the GHG Section of the Draft EIR.
Therefore, the Draft EIR analysis conservatively overestimates the contribution from stationary diesel emissions sources by assuming one hour of testing rather than 30 minutes of testing.
A-15Refer to Responses A-13 and A-14. No further response is warranted.
A-16Refer to Responses A-13, A-14, and A-15 above. All analysis and technical studies for the Draft EIR have been prepared following the appropriate methodologies. All potential impacts have been addressed.
A-17The City of Perris prior comment letters raised concerns regarding traffic safety hazards due to queuing on Ethanac Road at Byers Road that will be constructed by the Project (G-18, G-21), the configuration of Barnett Road and Case Road (G-25), and queuing along Ethanac Road at the I-215 interchange (G-31). See Responses to Comments G-18, G-21, G-25, and G-31 in the Final EIR how the Project will not create safety hazards due to geometric design.
In addition, Ethanac is generally a straight and flat road, with good visibility, no visual obstructions, and no sharp curves. It should also be noted that the Project would add only eastbound and Item Title: 11.1

westbound through traffic at the intersection of Ethanac Road at Barnett Road/Case Road; therefore, the project would not impact or worsen the potential issue of the northbound/southbound offset between Barnett Road and Case Road. Further, based on the Project Traffic Study, the intersection of Ethanac Road at Barnett Road/Case Road does not decline to an unacceptable Level of Service with the addition of Project traffic. Therefore, the City of Perris' reliance on LOS/queuing analysis to prove a safety impact at the intersection of Ethanac Road at Barnett Road/Case Road has no support.
Also, queuing progression and congestion does not automatically mean there is a safety hazard.
As such, for the reasons noted above in this response, there is no evidence that those occurrences will create safety hazards in this case and the City of Perris has not provided any evidence to the contrary.
It should be noted that the Project will be directly constructing several of the Traffic Study’s recommended improvements (imposed as conditions of approval by the Planning Commission), including constructing a traffic light and the 350’ turn pocket on Ethanac Road at Byers Road, modifying Wheat Street at Ethanac Road to a right-in, right-out (RIRO) only access, adding a traffic signal at the intersection of Ethanac Road at Evans Road, as well as adding turn lanes and road widening. These improvements will further improve safety conditions in the study area and would not create hazards due to geometric design features.
A-18Ethanac Road is currently a truck route. A global Traffic Study for the Menifee Economic Development Corridor (MEDC) and surrounding area, including the possible addition of a truck corridor south of Ethanac Road, is currently being prepared in coordination with the City of Menifee and the City of Perris. However, the global Traffic Study has not been completed nor has any roadway other than Ethanac Road been designated as a truck route that can serve the Project, and thus this Project cannot speculate on or study alternative trucks routes that may or may not later be identified. Therefore, it is appropriate that the Project Traffic Study analyzes trucks utilizing Ethanac Road to determine recommended improvements along Ethanac Road at full buildout of the MEDC and surrounding area.
Based on discussion with City of Perris staff, it is understood that the Traffic Impact Analysis prepared by RK Engineering in June 2023 is in reference to a supplemental queuing analysis conducted by RK Engineering along Ethanac Road at the intersection of Ethanac Road at Barnett Road/Case Road as part of an Comment Letter in support of Appeal, prepared by the City of Perris, for the Ethanac and Barnett Development Project in the City of Menifee. As noted in Response to Comment A-17, Ethanac is generally a straight and flat road, with good visibility, no visual obstructions, and no sharp curves. The Project would add only eastbound and westbound through traffic at the intersection of Ethanac Road at Barnett Road/Case Road; therefore, the project would not impact or worsen the potential issue of the northbound/southbound offset between Barnett Road and Case Road. Therefore, the City of Perris' reliance on a queuing analysis to prove a safety impact caused by the Project at the intersection of Ethanac Road at Barnett Road/Case Road has no support.
A-19Refer to Response to Comment G-17 in the Final EIR regarding review of compliance with the City of Perris Level of Service standards and significance criteria for study intersections located entirely or a majority within the City of Perris. As Level of Service is no longer a CEQA threshold for Item Title: 11.1

transportation impacts, the analysis to confirm compliance with the City of Perris Level of Service standards and significance criteria was not included in the DEIR.
The City of Perris General Plan Circulation Element does not provide traffic safety impact criteria relevant to the Project and the City of Perris did not provide enough specifics in their comment to evaluate this comment further.

A-27Ethanac Road is currently a truck route. A global Traffic Study for the Menifee Economic Development Corridor (MEDC) and surrounding area, including the possible addition of a truck corridor south of Ethanac Road, is currently being prepared in coordination with the City of Menifee and the City of Perris. However, the global Traffic Study has not been completed nor has any roadway other than Ethanac been designated as a truck route that can serve the Project, and thus this Project cannot speculate on or study alternative trucks routes that may or may not later be identified. Therefore, it is appropriate that the Project Traffic Study analyzes trucks utilizing Ethanac Road to determine recommended improvements along Ethanac Road at full buildout of the MEDC and surrounding area. Additionally, there is no reason to include a failure analysis as part of the global Traffic Study.
A-28The February 2023 traffic counts for overlapping intersections in the Project Traffic Study are provided in Attachment B to this Response to Comment matrix. Based on comparison of the February 2023 volumes and the October 2021 volumes used in the Project Traffic Study, it is noted that, compared to February 2023 volumes, the October 2021 volumes are higher at the intersections of Ethanac Road at I-215 SB Ramps (Intersection #14) and Ethanac Road at I-215 NB Ramps (Intersection #15), as well as lower at the intersection of Murrieta Road at Ethanac Road (Intersection #11). The variance in existing volumes between the October 2021 and February 2023 at the three noted locations are within 10%. As such, the traffic counts in the Project Traffic Study are considered reasonable, as well as conservative in some locations as noted above.
A-29The City of Fontana Truck Trip Generation Study is not considered outdated in the industry and is widely accepted and used by many cities in the Inland Empire, including as noted in the City of Menifee LOS Traffic Study Guidelines (October 2020), as a method for obtaining truck trips and truck splits. Further, the truck mix in the Fontana Truck Trip Generation Study is comparable to Item Title: 11.1

the SCAQMD truck mix recommendations. Also, as noted in the Project Traffic Study, the passenger car/truck splits are based on the ITE Trip Generation Manual (10th Edition Supplement), which is comparable to the passenger car/truck splits in the ITE Trip Generation Manual (11th Edition). Nevertheless, in order to address this comment, the passenger car/truck split and truck mix for the proposed Project have been reviewed based on the ITE Trip Generation Manual (11th Edition) for the passenger car/truck splits and the SCAQMD Warehouse Truck Trip Study Data Results and Usage (dated July 17, 2014) for the truck mix (i.e. 2-axle, 3-axle, 4+axle trucks) . A copy of the noted resources is provided in Attachment A (Passenger Car/Truck Splits and Truck Mix Information) to this response matrix.
The passenger car equivalent (PCE) factors as noted in the Traffic Study were also applied to these trip generation estimates. Based on the methodology noted above, the Project is estimated to generate approximately 4,719 daily PCE trips, with 632 PCE trips (512 inbound and 120 outbound) in the morning peak hour and 860 PCE trips (335 inbound and 525 outbound) in the evening peak hour.
Compared to the trip estimates in the approved Traffic Study, the trip estimates based on the SCAQMD methodology (inclusive of ITE 11th Edition for the passenger car/truck splits) is estimated to generate 3 additional daily PCE trips, with 7 fewer PCE trips in the morning peak hour and 19 fewer PCE trips in the evening peak hour.
Accordingly, as described above, the use of ITE 11th Edition passenger car/truck splits and SCAQMD truck mix percentages would not change the significance determinations in the Draft EIR and would not require new or modified mitigation measures. Therefore, the Final EIR and approved Traffic Study are not flawed and do not need to be modified.

A-31Refer to Response to Comment A-29. No further response is warranted.
A-32The study intersections in the Project’s Traffic Study are based on the Traffic Scoping Agreement approved by the City of Menifee. The intersection of Green Valley Parkway and Ethanac Road was not part of the approved list of study intersections as it is a future intersection that does not provide direct access to the Project. It should also be noted that the Project would add only eastbound and westbound through traffic on Ethanac Road at the future intersection of Green Valley Parkway and Ethanac Road and would therefore not directly impact the Green Valley Parkway approach at the future intersection.
A-33Acknowledged. At the time of data collection (October 2021), the southbound approach for Intersection #11 (Murrieta Road at Ethanac Road) reflected one dedicated left-turn lane, one through lane, and one dedicated right-turn lane. As a result, the existing lane geometry was reflected as such in the Project Traffic Study. Based on review of applying the updated lane geometry to Intersection #11 under Opening Year 2024 Cumulative Plus Project conditions, the overall intersection delay for Intersection #11 would nominally increase as noted below:
•AM Peak Hour
o2021 SB Approach: 119.3 sec/vehicle
oCurrent SB Approach: 120.3 sec/vehicle

Intersection analysis worksheets for Intersection #11 under Opening Year Cumulative Plus Project conditions is provided as an Attachment to this Response to Comment matrix. As noted above, the lane geometry update to the SB approach of Intersection #11 would not change the recommended improvements at Intersection #11. With the noted recommended improvements in the Project Traffic Study, Intersection #11 would operate at an acceptable LOS.
A-34The walk and pedestrian clearance time is accounted for in the Vistro traffic modeling software based on standard HCM defaults for walk time (4-7 seconds) and pedestrian crossing speed (3.5 feet per second).
A-35The walk and pedestrian clearance time is accounted for in the Vistro traffic modeling software based on standard HCM defaults for walk time (4-7 seconds) and pedestrian crossing speed (3.5 feet per second). The City of Menifee has responded to all comments raised by City of Perris regarding traffic safety hazards due to a geometric design feature. Refer to Response A-17. No further response is warranted.
A-36A separate signalized intersection typically has its own traffic signal cabinet, which is located on a corner of the intersection to which the signal cabinet is connected to. The traffic signal cabinet assigns phasing, signal timing, and cycle length that direct the operation of the individual traffic signal. In the case of the intersection of Ethanac Road at Barnett Road/Case Road, there is only one traffic signal cabinet located south of Ethanac Road between the two offset legs of the intersection. As such, while the northbound and southbound approaches are offset, the intersection operates as one signalized intersection that has connected phasing, signal timing, and cycle length. As a result, the intersection of Barnett Road/Case Road at Ethanac Road operates as one intersection and should be analyzed as one for analysis purposes. The comment suggests that the offset nature of Barnett Road and Case Road (the north/south roads at this intersection) causes a safety hazard and that the Project will exacerbate those issues. It should be noted that the Project does not take direct access from Barnett Road and would add only eastbound and westbound through traffic on Ethanac Road at the intersection of Ethanac Road at Barnett Road/Case Road. Therefore, the Project would not directly impact the turn pockets at the intersection and would not create or exacerbate turning hazards due to geometric design features.
A-37The analysis does account for the “no right-turn on red” sign. In the traffic analysis model used for the Project Traffic Study, there is an input to indicate vehicles making a right turn on red, which typically would lower the overall delay of the intersection. As a conservative analysis in the Project Traffic Study, this input was not selected and no "right turn on red" vehicles were assumed on any of the approaches at the Intersection #13 (Barnett Road/Case Road at Ethanac Road).
A-38It should be noted that the Project would only add eastbound and westbound through traffic at the intersection of Barnett Road/Case Road at Ethanac Road. Therefore, the Project would not directly impact the turn pockets or turning movement at the intersection and thus would not create or exacerbate turning hazards due to geometric design features at this intersection.

Further, based on review of the SWITRS data noted in the Comment from 2015-2017, there were three rear-end collisions for vehicles traveling eastbound or westbound at the intersection.
Generally, improvements are recommended based on accident data for safety purposes if there are at least five accidents that are similar in nature (i.e. rear end) within a consecutive 12-month period where the accident could be mitigated with a geometric improvement (California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, CA MUTCD). Based on review of the SWITRS data noted above and the TIMS data reference in the Comment from 2020-2023, there is not at least five accidents that are similar in nature within a consecutive 12-month period that would be caused or enhanced by the addition of eastbound and westbound through Project traffic at the intersection of Barnett Road/Case Road at Ethanac Road (Intersection #13). Therefore, no improvements are required of the Project at this intersection and the Project would not create hazards due to geometric design features.
A-39Refer to Response to Comment A-36. No further response is warranted.
A-40It is noted that the overall intersection delay improves with the addition of Project traffic under Existing Plus Project conditions at Intersection #6 (SR-74 at Sherman Road), Intersection #7 (Goetz Road at Fieldstone Drive), Intersection #13 (Barnett Road/Case Road at Ethanac Road), and at Intersection #23 (Sun City Boulevard at McCall Boulevard). Delay at signalized intersections is calculated based on the overall average of delay on each approach. The decrease in overall average delay for the noted intersections is due to the addition of Project traffic to an approach with a lower delay than the other approaches, which brings the overall average of all delay down for the intersection.
A-41See Response to Comment A-36. Based on the Project Traffic Study, the intersection of Barnett Road/Case Road at Ethanac Road (Intersection #13) would operate at an acceptable LOS under Opening Year 2024 Cumulative Plus Project conditions. Therefore, no improvements are recommended at this study intersection in the Project Traffic Study. The Project Traffic Study only provides recommended improvements to study intersections and roadway segments that would cause the deficient study locations to operate at an acceptable LOS and would more than offset the Project-related effect.
A-42The Project Traffic Study only provides recommended improvements to study intersections and roadway segments that would cause the deficient study locations to operate at an acceptable LOS and would more than offset the Project-related effect. The implementation of improvements is based on direct discussion between City staff and the Applicant via the Conditions of Approval process. Condition of Approval 209 for the proposed Project notes that the Project is conditioned to construct all improvements recommended in the Project Traffic Study for the following intersections:
•#9 - Wheat Street at Ethanac Road
•#10 - Byers Road at Ethanac Road
•#12 - Evans Road at Ethanac Road
Based on Table 4 of the Project Traffic Study, the intersection of I-215 NB Ramps at Ethanac Road (#15) would have a direct project effect. Due to the regional nature and scope of Intersection #15 as part of the Ethanac Road/I-215 interchange, the Project will be contributing a fair-share Item Title: 11.1

payment per Condition of Approval #212, instead of directly constructing improvements. It should be noted that the Ethanac Road/I-215 interchange has been identified as a Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG) Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fee (TUMF) project.
Therefore, the Project's payment of TUMF fees will cover additional costs to TUMF projects, such as the Ethanac Road/I-215 interchange. Nevertheless, the recommended improvements to deficient study locations are to address automobile delay, which are no longer CEQA impacts and therefore, not required improvements to mitigate CEQA-related impacts. A-43Refer to Response A-42. No further response is warranted.
A-44Refer to Response A12 regarding offsite improvements. Refer to Response A14 regarding the testing of diesel-powered fire pumps and/or diesel generators.
A-45The commenter notes that the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Assessment used CalEEMod version 2020.4 and acknowledges that SCAQMD recommended that all air quality analyses conducted after December 21, 2022 use the latest version of CalEEMod. Consistent with SCAQMD’s recommendations, the air quality and greenhouse gas modeling for the Project was initially completed in August 2022 with additional modeling completed in October 2022 to incorporate mitigation required by the Health Risk Assessment (HRA). Therefore, all modeling for the Project was completed before CalEEMod 2022 was approved for full release. As a result, CalEEMod version 2020.4 was the latest available software at the time the analysis was conducted.
A-46Refer to Response A-12.
A-47 MM AQ-3 requires the Project operator to submit a TDM program to the City. This measure provides employees with information regarding the use of public transportation, carpooling/vanpooling, and walking or biking to work, rather than driving to work every day. The development and submission of this plan is the performance standard for this mitigation measure, as the Project cannot compel employees not to drive their own vehicles to work. As a result, it is not possible to require an absolute VMT reduction as a mitigation target, however TDM programs are commonly used in the industry and are supported by CAPCOA,1 CARB,2 SCAQMD,3 and SCAG4 as a VMT (and thus air quality and GHG) reduction strategy. The commenter implies that this mitigation measure is the main source of NO X reductions that reduced emission to less than significant levels, however CalEEMod only took credit for 0.3 percent reduction of NOX emissions associated with MM AQ-3. Although not acknowledged by the commenter, MM AQ-4, which requires all cargo handling equipment to be zero emissions, is the main source of NO X emission reduction which resulted in less than significant levels.
A-48As discussed in Response A-12, the CalEEMod modeling for the Project included an additional 3.39 acres to conservatively include all offsite improvements associated with the Project. CalEEMod provides a list of typical construction equipment based on the size of the Project site and the types of land uses proposed. As a result, all construction equipment necessary for the offsite 1 California Air Pollution Control Officers Association. page 76. https://www.airquality.org/ClimateChange/Documents/Handbook%20Public%20Draft_2021-Aug.pdf 2 California Air Resources Board. page 100. https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/sites/default/files/2019- 11/Final%20SCS%20Program%20and%20Evaluation%20Guidelines%20Appendices.pdf 3 South Coast AQMD. page 4-52. https://www.aqmd.gov/docs/default-source/clean-air-plans/air-quality-management-plans/2022- air-quality-management-plan/final-2022-aqmp/07-ch4.pdf?sfvrsn=6 4 Southern California Association of Governments. https://scag.ca.gov/TDM Item Title: 11.1

improvements identified in the Traffic Study, located in Appendix K of the Draft EIR, have been included in the construction noise model. As shown in Table 4.11-9: Project Construction Noise Levels of the Draft EIR, construction noise would not exceed noise thresholds and therefore would not result in a significant noise impact.
A-49The commenter seems to suggest that the cumulative noise threshold used in the analysis was not correct but does not provide details regarding what threshold the commenter believes is appropriate. Cumulative noise impacts are discussed on pages 4.11-25 through 4.11-27 of the Draft EIR. As discussed in response A-50 below, consistent with CEQA, a two-step process for determining cumulative noise impacts was used in the analysis.
A-50In accordance with CEQA Guidelines, the Draft EIR addresses the cumulative noise impacts by addressing the following two step process: (1) whether the effects of the Project combined with other projects are cumulatively significant and (2) whether the Project’s incremental contribution to the impact is cumulatively considerable. Draft EIR Table 4.11-13: Cumulative Off-Site Traffic Noise Levels identifies both the combined and incremental noise increases.
Draft EIR Table 4.11-13 shows the combined traffic noise levels of the Project and other future projects would increase noise levels over 3 dBA above existing conditions at two roadway segments on Ethanac Road, one between Wheat Street and Murrietta Road and the other between Murrieta Road and Evans Road. These two roadway segments satisfy the first step, in identifying cumulative impacts. Therefore, the Draft EIR identifies the cumulative impact.
However, the Project’s incremental contribution to these impacts is not cumulatively considerable as the incremental contribution must exceed 1.0 dBA to be considered significant.
As shown in Table 4.11-13, the incremental increase associated with the Project at these roadway segments are 0.99 dBA and 0.72 dBA. As discussed previously, to be considered a cumulatively significant impact, an impact must satisfy both conditions of the two-step cumulative process. As shown in Table 4.11-13, none of the roadway segments satisfy both conditions, therefore the Project’s incremental effect would not be cumulatively considerable, and the Project would not result in cumulatively significant impacts.
The comment incorrectly states that the Draft EIR does not identify a significant impact. As noted above, the Draft EIR identified the cumulative impact. However, the Draft EIR determines that this impact would not be cumulatively considerable and therefore not significant.
A-51As stated in Final EIR Response to Comment G10, CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6 requires that a project provide a range of reasonable alternatives to the project, or to the location of the project, which would feasibly attain most of the basic objectives of the project but would avoid or substantially lessen any of the significant effects of the project and evaluate the comparative merits of the alternatives. An EIR need not consider every conceivable alternative to a project.
Rather it must consider a reasonable range of potentially feasible alternatives that will foster informed decision making and public participation. The City deemed that, for this Project, having two alternatives for the Project provides an adequate range of alternatives pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15126.6, because those were the alternatives determined which could reduce the Project’s significant effects while still meeting most of the basic Project objectives.

City of Menifee
CADO Menifee Industrial Warehouse Project
Golden State Environmental Justice Alliance Appeal Comments and Responses B-1This comment summarizes Golden State Environmental Justice Alliance (GSEJA)’s reasons for their appeal letter, requesting that a new EIR be prepared due to the deficiencies of the EIR and potential health concerns to the City of Menifee’s citizens. Refer to Response to Comment B-6 below for further information.
B-2GSEJA’s opinion that the City of Menifee Planning Commission did not adequately investigate or mitigate the impacts of this Project is noted. CEQA does not require adoption of every imaginable mitigation measure. CEQA’s requirement applies only to feasible mitigation that will “substantially lessen” a project’s significant effects (Public Resources Code Section 21002). As explained by one court: A lead agency's “duty to condition project approval on incorporation of feasible mitigation measures only exists when such measures would [avoid or] ‘substantially lessen’ a significant environmental effect.” (San Franciscans for Reasonable Growth v. City and County of San Francisco (1989) 209 Cal.App.3d 1502, 1519.) “Thus, the agency need not, under CEQA, adopt every nickel and dime mitigation scheme brought to its attention or proposed in the project EIR.” (Ibid.) Rather, an EIR should focus on mitigation measures that are feasible, practical, and effective (Napa Citizens for Honest Government v. Napa County Board of Supervisors (2001) 91 Cal.App.4th 342, 365.). As disclosed in the EIR and supported by substantial evidence in the record, the Project’s EIR includes all feasible mitigation measures that are capable of substantially reducing the Project’s environmental impacts and therefore, the City of Menifee Planning Commission’s approval considered these factors. Lastly, GSEJA fails to provide any evidence supporting their claim that the Project’s EIR did not sufficiently analyze all environmental impacts, per Appendix G Environmental Checklist Form, to the CEQA Guidelines.
B-3GSEJA’s opinion of the City of Menifee Planning Commission’s understanding of the CEQA is noted. No further response is warranted.
B-4This comment lists bullet points summarizing GSEJA’s understanding of the purpose of CEQA. No further response is warranted.
B-5The City agrees that environmental justice is an important topic but GSEJA continues to fail to understand that CEQA does not require consideration of potential implications to environmental justice or socioeconomics as a specific resource. Furthermore, “environmental justice” is not listed within the “Environmental Factors Potentially Affected” in Appendix G, Environmental Checklist Form, to the CEQA Guidelines. Nonetheless, CalEnviroScreen was discussed in Draft EIR Appendix B, Health Risk Assessment (HRA) and the results of the HRA were summarized in Impact
4.2-3 of Draft EIR Section 4.2, Air Quality pertaining to the Project’s impacts to sensitive receptors.
An example of the Project’s commitment to reduce health risk to nearby sensitive receptors is further discussed in Draft EIR Section 4.2 (page 4.2-34). The Project’s implementation of Mitigation Measure (MM) HRA-1 would require that the Project use Tier 4 construction equipment or incorporation of CARB Level 3 Verified Diesel Emission Control Strategy (VDECS) Item Title: 11.1

which would reduce cancer risk to 1.8 in one million, which is well below SCAQMD threshold of 10 in one million.
B-6The commenter provides a table of data from CalEnviroscreen for Census Tract 6065042731.
Although the CalEnviroscreen scores are based on 21 indicators, the table only provides data on the worst 12 indicators which gives the false impression that the area is disproportionately impacted (note that the table does show that the Pollution Burden Percentile is only 45%). As discussed in Appendix B2 (Health Risk Assessment), CalEnviroScreen and the environmental justice factors are disclosed on pages 11-12. CEQA does not require consideration of potential implications to environmental justice or socioeconomics as a specific resource, further, environmental justice is not listed within the “Environmental Factors Potentially Affected” in Appendix G, Environmental Checklist Form, to the CEQA Guidelines. Furthermore, as discussed within the Draft EIR, the proposed Project would not result in significant and unavoidable air quality impacts. Localized air quality impacts would be less than significant. Therefore, even if the topic of environmental justice was a required topic within the “Environmental Factors Potentially Affected” in Appendix G, Environmental Checklist Form, there would not be impacts to local residents as a result of approval of the proposed Project. Therefore, there are no significant impacts to local residents as a result of approval of the proposed Project. This comment is noted and will be provided to the decision makers for review and consideration. Because the comment does not raise a substantive issue on the content of the Draft EIR, no further response is warranted.
B-7This is a conclusion comment suggesting that the EIR is flawed and new EIR must be prepared and recirculated. This letter did not provide any substantial or factual evidence that supports GSEJA’s claim that the EIR is “flawed” or inadequate document. GSEJA also did not provide any evidence suggesting that the responses provided to the commenter’s April 26, 2024 letter submitted during the Project’s public review period of the Draft EIR were insufficient in addressing their previous concerns. The City urges GSEJA review the City’s responses to GSEJA’s letter in the FEIR.
B-8This is a copy of GSEJA’s letter submitted during the Project’s public review period of the Draft EIR. No additional comments were made, and the City suggests that the comment refer back to the City’s responses to their letter for further explanation and clarity.
B-9This is a receipt of GSEJA’s appeal fee. No further comment is warranted.

3 reburial, pursuant to the specific exemption set forth in California Government Code 6254 (r).
30. Inadvertent Archeological Find. If during ground disturbance activities, unique cultural resources are discovered that were not assessed by the archaeological report(s) and/or environmental assessment conducted prior to project approval, the following procedures shall be followed. Unique cultural resources are defined, for this condition only, as being multiple artifacts in close association with each other, but may include fewer artifacts if the area of the find is determined to be of significance due to its sacred or cultural importance as determined in consultation with the Native American Tribe(s). a. All ground disturbance activities within 100 feet of the discovered cultural resources shall be halted until a meeting is convened between the developer, the archaeologist, the tribal representative(s) and the Community Development Director to discuss the significance of the find.
b. At the meeting, the significance of the discoveries shall be discussed and after consultation with the tribal representative(s) and the archaeologist, a decision shall be made, with the concurrence of the Community Development Director, as to the appropriate mitigation (documentation, recovery, avoidance, etc.) for the cultural resources.
c. Grading of further ground disturbance shall not resume within the area of the discovery until an agreement has been reached by all parties as to the appropriate mitigation. Work shall be allowed to continue outside of the buffer area and will be monitored by additional Tribal monitors if needed. d. Treatment and avoidance of the newly discovered resources shall be consistent with the Cultural Resources Management Plan and Monitoring Agreements entered into with the appropriate tribes. This may include avoidance of the cultural resources through project design, in-place preservation of cultural resources located in native soils and/or re-burial on the Project property so they are not subject to further disturbance in perpetuity as identified in Non- Disclosure of Reburial Condition.
e. Pursuant to Calif. Pub. Res. Code § 21083.2(b) avoidance is the preferred method of preservation for archaeological resources and cultural resources. If the landowner and the Tribe(s) cannot agree on the significance or the mitigation for the archaeological or cultural resources, these issues will be presented to the City Community Development Director for decision.

The Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. PC24-639 which was prepared for the Project (State Clearinghouse No. 2022040622), and mitigations measures were provided. The Environmental Impact Report (EIR) determined the Project could result in significant and unavoidable impacts under the category of Greenhouse Gas Emissions based on the analysis and findings in the Draft EIR and required adoption of a Statement of Overriding Considerations. Following the Project’s approval, a Notice of Determination was filed with the Riverside County Clerk’s Office and State Clearinghouse on August 16, 2024.

All such comments will be submitted to the City Council, and the City Council will consider such comments, in addition to any oral testimony, before making a decision on the proposed project.
If this project is challenged in court, the issues may be limited to those raised at the public hearing, described in this notice, or in written correspondence delivered to the City Council at, or prior to, the public hearing. Be advised that as a result of public hearings and comment, the City Council may amend, in whole or in part, the proposed project.
