The findings are as follows:
The proposed development is in compliance with all city ordinances and regulations, unless in accordance with an approved variance; and This finding is supported by the following facts:
The Site has a General Plan land use designation of General Industrial with a Specific Plan Overlay and a zoning designation of Agua Mansa Specific Plan. The Site’s land use designation within the Agua Mansa Specific Plan is Heavy Industrial (H-IND). Those designations allow for the development and operation of truck terminal facilities, as proposed by the Project. The Project, as conditioned herein, will comply with all City ordinances and regulations, the H-IND land use district, and the Agua Mansa Specific Plan.
The site is physically suitable for the proposed development, and the proposed development will be arranged, designed, constructed, and maintained so that it will not be unreasonably detrimental or injurious to property, improvements, or the health, safety or general welfare of the general public in the vicinity, or otherwise be inharmonious with the city’s general plan and its objectives, zoning ordinances or any applicable specific plan and its objectives; and This finding is supported by the following facts:
The Site is 45.7 acres in size, bound by one (1) public street (Santa Ana Avenue to the north), and is within the Heavy Industrial (H-IND) land use district of the Agua Mansa Specific Plan. To the north of the project site, across Santa Ana Avenue, is a pallet yard, operated by Select Pallets, and to the east is an 82,000 square foot industrial warehouse building and Rialto Water Service’s Wastewater Treatment Plant. To the south is the Santa Ana River, and to the west are various industrial developments and operations, including Holliday Rock, a concrete mix supplier, and Ecology Auto Parts, auto-salvage and fleet maintenance operations. The nearby area is designated for and completely developed with industrial uses, and as a result, there are no sensitive land uses adjacent to or near the project site. The project is not expected to negatively impact any uses with the successful implementation of measures such as landscape buffering, the installation of solid screen walls, aesthetic building enhancements, and other traffic related measures.
The proposed development will not unreasonably interfere with the use or enjoyment of neighboring property rights or endanger the peace, health, safety or welfare of the general public; and This finding is supported by the following facts:
The Project’s effects will be minimized through the implementation of the Conditions of Approval contained herein, such as extensive landscaping, concrete screen walls, decorative paving, and enhanced architectural features. To the north of the project site is Jerry Eaves Park and to east is the Cactus Basin Flood Control Channel. To the north of the project site, across Santa Ana Avenue, is a pallet yard, operated by Select Pallets, and to the east is an 82,000 square foot industrial warehouse building and Rialto Water Service’s Wastewater Treatment Plant. To the south is the Santa Ana River, and to the west are various industrial developments and operations, including Holliday Rock, a concrete mix supplier, and Ecology Auto Parts, auto-salvage and fleet maintenance operations. The nearby area is designated for and completely developed with industrial uses, and as a result, there are no sensitive land uses adjacent to or near the project site. The project is not expected to negatively impact any uses with the successful implementation of measures such as landscape buffering, the installation of solid screen walls, aesthetic building enhancements, and other traffic related measures.
The proposed development will not substantially interfere with the orderly or planned development of the City of Rialto.
This finding is supported by the following facts:
The Project is consistent with the underlying Heavy Industrial (H-IND) land use designation and is a logical addition to the existing industrial developments surrounding the Site. The design of the Project will ensure a continuation of the public improvements and aesthetics present in the surrounding area. The City staff have reviewed the design of the Project to ensure compliance with all health, safety, and design requirements to ensure the Project will enhance the infrastructure and aesthetics of the local community.
