TIME OF HEARING: October 23, 2024
DATE OF HEARING: 6:00PM, or as soon thereafter as possible PLACE OF HEARING: MENIFEE CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS
29844 Haun Road, Menifee, CA 92586
A PUBLIC HEARING has been scheduled, pursuant to the City of Menifee Municipal Code, before the CITY OF MENIFEE PLANNING COMMISSION to consider the project shown below:
Project Title: “Murrieta Road Warehouse Project” – Plot Plan No. PLN 22-0179 – Environmental Impact Report (EIR) (State Clearinghouse Number #2023110162.)
Project Location: The Project is generally located south of Floyd Avenue, east of Geary Street, west of Murrieta Road, and north of McLaughlin Road within the City of Menifee (City), County of Riverside, State of California (Assessor Parcel Numbers [APNs]: 330-210-010, -011, -013, and -062, 330-560-001 through 330-560-040, 330- 570-001 through 330-570-033, and 330-571-001 through 330-571-005).
The Planning Commission will consider whether to approve of the following project at a public hearing:
Plot Plan No. No. PLN 22-0179 includes development of an approximately 517,720-square-foot (SF) speculative warehouse building. The environmental analysis includes a development buffer to account for final design changes, equivalent to three percent of the building square footage, or 15,532 SF, which would result in a building area of 533,252 SF and a floor area ratio of 0.50. The 533,252 SF warehouse building would include approximately 20,320 SF of ground floor office space, 7,000 SF of mezzanine office space, and 505,932 SF of warehouse space, and would be approximately 55 feet tall. Additional improvements include a parking lot and loading docks, ornamental landscaping, associated onsite infrastructure, and construction of offsite street improvements.
The Project would include 90 dock-high doors and 4 grade-level truck doors. Approximately 128 trailer parking spaces would be provided in the northern truck court and 64 trailer parking spaces would be provided in the southern truck court, within areas secured by sliding gates. The proposed Project would also provide 409 passenger car parking spaces. Access to the proposed Project would be provided via two driveways from Geary Street and three driveways from Murrieta Road.
The Project would also include approximately 137,363 SF of ornamental landscaping that would cover 11.0 percent of the site. The proposed Project includes an approximately 14-foot-high retaining and screen wall along the interior of the northern and southern truck courts (outside facing wall would be 8 feet high with a landscaping berm), which would taper to a 6-foot-high screen wall along the northern property line outside of the truck court.
The Project would include approximately 4.5 acres (approximately 1.5 linear miles) of construction improvements in the form of roadway and utility improvements.
Environmental Information: On May 24, 2024, a Notice of Availability of the Draft EIR was sent to Responsible and Trustee Agencies and mailed to surrounding property owners and non- owner residents within 500 feet of the project site, stating that copies of the Draft EIR were available for public review on the City’s website, at the City of Menifee City Hall, the Sun City Library and Menifee Library. The public review period was for the State - mandated 45 days, from May 24, 2024, through July 8, 2024. Analysis presented in the Draft EIR indicated the proposed project would have certain significant and unavoidable greenhouse gas and noise impacts. The Draft EIR also presented mitigation measures, which will reduce project -specific and cumulative impacts. All other environmental effects evaluated in the D raft EIR are considered less than significant or can be successfully mitigated below the applicable significance thresholds.
The Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) responds to the comments and includes text revisions to the Draft EIR in response to input received on the Draft EIR. Unlike the Draft EIR, the City is not required to respond to comments on the FEIR. If written comments are received, they will be provided to the Planning Commission as part of the staff report for the Project. The Draft EIR and FEIR will be submitted to the Planning Commission for requested certification and action on the Project.
The FEIR is available on the City of Menifee Community Development Department website:
https://www.cityofmenifee.us/325/Environmental-Notices-Documents. A hard copy of the FEIR can be viewed at: Menifee City Hall – 29844 Haun Road, Menifee, CA 92586.
The Project site is not included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 (California Department of Toxic Substances Control list of various hazardous sites).
Any person wishing to comment on the proposed Project may do so in writing between the date of this notice and the public hearing and be heard at the time and place noted above. All comments must be received prior to the time of the public hearing. All such comments will be submitted to the Planning Commission, and the Planning Commission 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 Planning Commission at, or prior to, the public hearing. Be advised that as a result of public hearings and comments , the Planning Commission may amend, in whole or in part, the proposed Project. Accordingly, the designations, development standards, design or improvements, or any properties or lands within the boundaries of the proposed Project, may be changed in a way other than specifically proposed.
