AGENDA REPORT
DATE: January 12, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Dr. Sean Moore, City Manager
Phil White, Director of Finance
SUBJECT: Monthly Treasurer's Report November 2025
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council receive and file the Monthly Treasurer's Report for November 2025.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
To comply with the requirements of California Government Code Section 53607 and the recommendation of California Government Code Section 53646, a treasurer's report is submitted to the Council monthly.
It is the responsibility of the Finance staff to develop the Monthly Treasurer's Report in a timely manner for review by the City Manager/Treasurer, and ultimately the City Council. It is the function of the Treasurer to deposit and invest funds in accordance with the Investment Policy of the City of Yucaipa to achieve the stated objectives of preservation of capital, liquidity, and return on investment. The purpose of the Monthly Treasurer's Report is to provide the City Council with a snapshot of the City's investment portfolio. The balances included in the Monthly Treasurer's Report represent the market value of the City's investments.
The City utilizes the Monthly Treasurer's Report as one tool to monitor fiscal performance. The City's net position or fund balance (equity) is comprised of assets less liabilities. The portfolio is just one component of assets. The portfolio balance will fluctuate based on investment performance (yield) as well as the timing of cash inflows (revenue collection) and cash outflows (expenditure payments).
The yield for the investment held with the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) was 4.096% in November.
While the City does not have outstanding debt related to bond issuances, the City acts in a fiduciary capacity for the Successor Agency to the former Redevelopment Agency and the Chapman Heights Community Facilities District, both of which maintain outstanding bonds. The City pools cash and investments of all funds, except for assets related to the bond issuances of the Successor Agency and 01/12/2026 City Council Agenda
31 Community Facilities District which are required to be held in separate accounts with fiscal agents in accordance with the bond indentures.
As required by the Investment. Policy, the attached Monthly Treasurer's Report includes a certification that (1) All investment actions executed since the last report have been made in full compliance with the Investment Policy; and (2) the City will meet its expenditure obligations for the next six months.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The recommendation does not result in a fiscal impact.

AGENDA REPORT
DATE: January 12, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Phillip White, Director of Finance 9
Ryan Blackerby, Deputy Director of Finance 813
Item No. 4
SUBJECT: Monthly Accounts Payable Check Reconciliation Register — November 2025 RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council review and ratify the Check Reconciliation Register for the period of November 1, 2025 through November 30, 2025, with the exception that Council Member Thorp recuses himself from voting on any warrants payable to the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department due to a financial interest as an employee of that agency.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
Beginning in Fiscal Year 2025-26, Finance Department Staff prepares and presents the Accounts Payable Check Reconciliation Register report to the City Council monthly. Attached is the Accounts Payable Check Reconciliation Register for the month of November 2025. The Register includes all Accounts Payable disbursements made from the City, both by check and non -check, and includes checks that may have been voided after printing (indicated in the Register). As an additional element of transparency, staff has now added these monthly Accounts Payable Check Reconciliation Registers to the Transparency Portal ( https://yucaipa.gov/transparence , filed under Financial Documents.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The recommendation does not result in a fiscal impact.

Item No. 5
AGENDA REPORT
DATE: January 12, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Phillip White, Director of Finance
Ryan Blackerby, Deputy Director of lnance �$
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2025-26 System Contracts Authorized by Staff - November 2025 RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council receive and file a report on the Fiscal Year 2025-26 (FY26) contracts authorized by staff during November 2025.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
At a recent meeting, the City Council requested that staff provide a report on staff authorized contracts.
Attachment 1 contains a list of contracts compiled by first querying Tyler Munis for 1) contracts entered into Tyler Munis from November 1, 2025 through November 30, 2025, and 2) contracts with FY26 amounts greater than $0, a revised amount greater than the original amount, and modified in Tyler Munis within the same date range (to capture any additional contracts amended within the date range). Both outputs were filtered to remove contracts that staff had already indicated in Tyler Munis as having received City Council authorization, as well as contracts that had not yet been "posted" or "approved" in the system (indicating a level of review still pending).
Though the City uses standardized templates and processes for most contracts, there is no centralized, electronic system for contract creation and execution. Tyler Munis, however, has tools for managing contracts after they are executed and entered into the system. Munis, therefore, is the best source of centralized data for this report, though it introduces certain limitations. Munis can only report on contracts that have been entered into the system by staff. As such, executed contracts not entered into Munis would be absent from the report. Similarly, dates that are used to query contracts in Munis may not reflect actual contract dates. As an example, the "Entry Date" in Munis does not reflect the date the contract was executed. Modifications made to a contract record in Munis may be technical in nature and not actually reflect a change in the contract document or agreement itself. Staff has made efforts to overcome some of these limitations and present all contracts to the City Council in an inclusive manner, but these and similar limitations of the system do affect the results.
An additional consideration is that contract records in Munis are used to represent a variety of authoritative documents that guide a relationship between the City and a third party, when helpful for financial management. Therefore, the results may include documents that many may not consider to 01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 66
be contracts such as license agreements, terms and conditions or other documents that are standard to sign or agree to when making a purchase with a vendor.
The contracts in Attachment 1 were authorized by staff members consistent with the Purchasing Authority Limits in Section 2.24.012 of the Yucaipa Municipal Code, "Purchasing Levels and Approval Authority".
FISCAL IMPACT:
The recommendation does not result in a fiscal impact.

Item No. 6
AGENDA REPORT
DATE: January 12, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Trevor Benson, Public Safety Manager
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 2026-01 - Tobacco Grant Award
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-01, authorizing the City Manager to accept a Proposition 56 Tobacco Grant award from the State of California Department of Justice in the amount of $74,709 to conduct retail enforcement operations in the City of Yucaipa.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The California Healthcare, Research and Prevention Tobacco Tax Act of 2016 (Proposition 56) funding helps promote a healthier California by reducing illegal retail sales and marketing of cigarettes and tobacco products, including e-cigarettes, to minors. The Office of the Attorney General makes these annual funds available to local law enforcement agencies through the California Department of Justice (DOJ) Tobacco Grant Program.
After an application process, the City of Yucaipa received a grant award from the California Department of Justice (DOJ) for the Proposition 56 — Tobacco Grant Program to enforce state tobacco laws and local ordinances, including the statewide flavor ban (and similar local ordinances) through retailer inspections and enforcement operations (e.g. minor decoy, shoulder tap, in stores).
Funded activities will include:
• Retail enforcement operations;
• On -site education and educational materials to retailers; • Enforcement officers with education about tobacco laws and ordinances; • Bi-Annual minor decoy operation
The grant award amount is $74,709 and projects are expected to begin on or about July 2, 2026, and must terminate on or before June 30, 2029.
01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 70
The budget breakdown is as follows:
Budget Category
FY 25/27
FY 27/28
FY 28/29
Total
Personnel
Expenses
$24,403
$24,403
$24,403
$73,209
Operating Costs
$500
$500
$500
$1500
The Grant operates on an arrear basis, in which the DOJ reimburses the City for approved expenditures.
This occurs upon receipt of invoices, submission of quarterly progress reports, and provision of other enforcement data as required by the Grant.
The grant award will provide up to $74,709 in state funding to enhance local tobacco enforcement activities over the project period. There is no match requirement for this grant; however, grant funds must be expended strictly on approved activities and reimbursed in arrears. Any unspent funds will remain available within the project performance period.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The recommendation does not result in a current year fiscal impact. $74,709 will be incorporated into the Public Safety Fund in future years' budgets.

One operation will focus on initial inspections, while the remaining one will re- evaluate businesses that previously fell short of compliance standards. This structured approach will help identify issues, support corrective actions, and strengthen adherence to regulations across all 51 tobacco retail establishments within city limits, promoting responsible business practices and public health protections.
Minor Decoy Operations
• Per year, 2 minor decoy operations will be conducted. • Per year, 51 retailers will be targeted through these operations. • Additional details regarding these operations:
o During the 36-month grant period, the Yucaipa Police Department will conduct two annual minor decoy operations, inspecting at least 51 tobacco retailers per cycle.

4. Approve the contract specifications prepared for this project.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The City continues to aggressively pursue federal, state, and local grant funding to help fund Capital Improvement Program (CIP) infrastructure projects. With direction from the City Council, staff has also pursued partnerships with other agencies to help fund and construct infrastructure projects that provide multiple benefits to residents of the City of Yucaipa.
The City has completed many traffic improvements as a result of successful grant funding applications under the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) administered by the State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). HSIP grant eligibility requirements were updated to require local jurisdictions to adopt a Local Roadway Safety Plan (LRSP) in order to be eligible for HSIP and other grant funding administered by Caltrans and the Federal Highway 01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 79
Administration (FHWA). Following a competitive Request for Proposals/Qualifications (RFP/RFQ) procurement process, a contract was awarded to KOA Corporation (KOA) to develop the LRSP for the City of Yucaipa. The LRSP was developed by KOA and City staff through collaborations with stakeholders, resulting in a final report that includes a prioritized list of vehicular and pedestrian traffic safety -related improvements and recommendations (also known as countermeasures) that have been identified on public streets throughout the City of Yucaipa. LRSP stakeholders included residents, the Yucaipa Police Department, San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, the Yucaipa Fire Department, Omnitrans and the Yucaipa-Calimesa Joint Unified School District. As a result, the City Council approved and adopted Resolution No. 2023-38 approving the LRSP for the City of Yucaipa.
One of the safety improvements identified in the adopted LRSP is the upgrading of traffic signal backplates at signalized intersections to include the installation of retro-reflective yellow tape. These improvements have been identified to increase the visibility of signalized intersections, resulting in safety enhancements aimed at reducing the frequency and severity of broadside and rear -end crashes where drivers could have difficulty seeing traffic signals in advance of an intersection. Several of the City's existing intersections are equipped with these features, as a result of a previous HSIP grant funded project, as well as the newer intersections that have been signalized as a result of development activity and/or CIP projects to align with the latest Caltrans standards that include the yellow retro-reflective tape on the signal head backplates.
In recent years, the City of Yucaipa has also experienced more frequent and widespread power outages due to SCE's public safety power shutoffs (PSPS) aimed at reducing wildfire risk. These occurrences have led to the City's existing facilities, including signalized intersections, being without power for extended periods of time and in some cases multiple days. While many of the existing signalized intersections are equipped with battery backup systems to temporarily power the signals for approximately 3-5 hours, additional measures have become increasingly important to improve motorist safety throughout the City at night, during all weather conditions, and when signalized traffic signals are without permanent and/or temporary power. City staff has partnered with the Yucaipa Police and Fire Departments on public messaging aimed at educating, informing, and reminding motorists of the vehicle code requirements on how to navigate through intersections safely during power outages and/or when signalized intersections are not operational. While this messaging and outreach is an important tool, City staff recognized an opportunity to advance the City Council Adopted 2025 Goal No. 4 to "Enhance Emergency Preparedness/Management Capabilities" to further support these efforts. As a result, City staff applied for HSIP grant funding in September of 2024 to upgrade all traffic signals with the yellow retro-reflective tape to improve traffic signal visibility.
On February 28, 2025, City staff was notified by Caltrans that the City's application for HSIP grant funding had been approved in the amount of $357,480. City staff immediately began coordination with Caltrans to formally authorize the funding to be used for the construction phase of the project.
This included processing required forms, as well as execution of the project specific supplemental agreement as required by Caltrans for State grant funded projects. Additionally, City Council's adoption of the FY26 Budget in June of 2025 included the addition of the Project as a new project into the City's adopted FY26 CIP. Subsequently, the City received notification from Caltrans on September 29, 2025, that the Project had been approved to proceed into the construction phase.
O1/12/2026 City Council Agenda 80
The bid documents and contract specifications for the project were prepared by staff and publicly advertised for construction bids in October of 2025. On December 4, 2025, five (5) sealed bids were received and opened as follows:
Bidder
Bid Amount
Select Electric, Inc. of Anaheim, CA
$128,230.00
Servitek Electric, Inc. of Norwalk, CA
214,249.00
Belco Elecnor of Chino, CA
171,524.00
Econolite Systems of Anaheim, CA
221,597.02
Bear Electrical Systems, LLC of Alviso, CA
263,150.00
Select Electric, Inc. (Select) is the apparent lowest responsible bidder. Staff has reviewed the bid documents and determined that the documents meet the requirements of the contract specifications.
Select has completed similar projects in the past for other municipalities and as part of the reference check process, their work has been deemed satisfactory. As a result, staff recommends that City Council award the contract to Select.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The recommendations result in a fiscal impact in the amount of $167,230, which is included in the adopted FY26 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget. HSIP grant funding will fund approximately 90% of the Project.

Item No. 8
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Fermin Preciado, Director of Development Services/City Engineer.
Landon Kern, Assistant City Engineer Lk"',
Lauren Smith, Public Works/Engineering Specialist.
SUBJECT: Approval of Final Parcel Map 20662
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council:
1) Find that Final Parcel Map No. 20662 is in substantial conformance with the previously approved tentative map; and
2) Approve Final Parcel Map No. 20662 in accordance with the Conditions of Approval; and 3) Accept any and all dedications for public -right -of way and easements as offered and described on the map for street and public utility purposes; and
4) Authorize the City Clerk and City Engineer to sign the map evidencing the City Council's approval; and
5) Authorize staff to process and file the map with the San Bernardino County Assessor -Recorder - County Clerk's Office.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
On September 21, 2023, Tentative Parcel Map 20662 was conditionally approved by the Planning Division to permit the subdivision of a 34.81-acre split zoned parcel into two (2) lots that will align with the zoning boundaries of the site, located at the northeast corner of Oak Glen Road and Colorado Street; APN: 0318-061-28. This subdivision will result in one (1), 28.89-acre lot in the RM-24 Land Use District and one (1), 5.92-acre lot in the CN Land Use District.
Consistent with the City's Development Code, a tentative map is valid for up to an 8-year period (pending review/approval of applications for extensions) allowing the applicant/developer to complete the necessary requirements prior to requesting City Council's approval and recordation of a final map.
In some cases, projects have also been eligible for additional time extensions as a result of State laws that automatically apply during hardships. For example, in 2020, Assembly Bill 1561 was signed into 01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 86
law and extended the validity of housing entitlements such as tentative maps by an additional 18 months due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The City Council's consent is required to approve/authorize the recordation of final maps and to accept offers of dedication for public -right-of-way. The offers of dedication included in this final map result in a thirty-three (33) foot half -width right-of-way along Colorado Street, which is consistent with the City's General Plan.
It is the responsibility of the applicant/developer to demonstrate that the project Specific Conditions of Approval have been met prior to requesting the City Council's approval of the final map. Staff has conducted a Condition Compliance Review and all necessary conditions of approval required to be met prior to approval and recordation of the final map have been met.
With the City Council's approval, Final Parcel Map No. 20662 can be recorded, and the applicant/developer can proceed with the preparation of the engineering plans, construction documents and applicable permit applications to construct the proposed residential units, street improvements and other associated public infrastructure.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The recommendations do not result in a fiscal impact.

AGENDA REPORT
DATE: January 12, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Ana V. Sauseda, Director of General Services/City Clerk Fermin Preciado, Director of Development Services/City Engineer Benjamin J. Matlock, Deputy Director of Community Development/City Planner;?'�' SUBJECT: Discussion of the Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Update RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council:
1. Adopt Resolution No. 2025-61 & Resolution No. 2025-62, calling for the holding of a Special Municipal Referendum Election on June 2, 2026, and authorizing a budget adjustment in the amount of $200,000 for the cost of the election; or
2. Rescind Resolution No. 2025-54, adopting the Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Update and Repeal Ordinance No. 448, amending the Official Land Use Plan and Zoning Ordinance of the City of Yucaipa, and provide direction on the City's long term land use goals, including the City's Housing Element, the Freeway Corridor Specific Plan area, and the City's Economic Development goals, and associated funding for those efforts.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The Freeway Corridor Specific Plan has been discussed at length at numerous City Council Meetings for several years now. On August 25, 2025, at a duly noticed public hearing, the City Council approved the Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Update by a vote of 4-1. Among staff s recommendations were the approval of Resolution No. 2025-54, approving and adopting the Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Update and the approval of the introduction and first reading of Ordinance No. 448, amending the official Land Use Plan and Zoning Ordinance of the City of Yucaipa. On September 8, 2025, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 448 by a vote of 5-0.
Both the Resolution and Ordinance are deemed to be City "legislative acts" and are subject to challenge by the referendum process as outlined in the California Elections Code (Elections Code).
On September 30, 2025, Yucaipa residents timely filed a signed petition to referend (challenge through referendum) Resolution No. 2025-54 adopted by the City Council. The petition was referred to the San Bernardino County Registrar of Voters (ROV) for official signature verification against 01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 98
official County voter records. The verification of signatures was completed, and the petition was determined to have sufficient signatures to qualify for the ballot.
On October 20, 2025, Yucaipa residents timely filed a signed petition to referend (challenge through referendum) Ordinance No. 448 adopted by the City Council. The petition was also referred to the ROV for official signature verification against official County voter records. The verification of signatures was completed, and the petition was determined to have sufficient signatures to qualify for the ballot.
At the October 27, 2025, Regular City Council Meeting, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2025-57 accepting the Certificate of Sufficiency for the Referendum of Resolution No. 2025-54 and discussed their options as defined by Elections Code § 9241. By a vote of 3-1-1, Council voted to call for a Special Election to be consolidated with the California Primary to be held on June 2, 2026, for the purpose of submitting to the voters the referendum of Resolution No. 2025-54 and Ordinance No. 448 (in anticipation of its qualification for the ballot).
At the November 10, 2025, Regular City Council Meeting, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2025-58 accepting the Certificate of Sufficiency for the Referendum of Ordinance No. 448 by a vote of 3-1-0-1.
Staff returned to Council on December 8, 2025, with Resolution No. 2025-61 and Resolution No. 2025-62 calling for the holding of a Special Municipal Referendum Election to be consolidated with the California Primary on June 2, 2026. After Council discussion, staff was directed by a vote of 3-2 to return to Council with an item that allows them to discuss and consider the option of rescinding Resolution No. 2025-54 and repealing Ordinance No. 448 instead of moving forward with the Special Election.
Ultimately, the undeveloped properties along the Interstate 10 Freeway corridor have been planned for housing, commercial and industrial development since the City of Yucaipa's earliest history acknowledging that development of the freeway corridor area is an important component of the City's economic development and future financial sustainability.
To support the development, the City Council initially authorized over $750,000 from the General Fund in 2005 for the preparation and environmental review of the FCSP. This plan, adopted in 2008, ultimately arrived as significant changes in market and consumer spending habits were occurring.
Because of the failure of the original plan, as well as updates from the City's 2016 General Plan, the City Council directed staff in 2021 to update the FCSP, authorizing over $800,000 from the General Fund and another $250,000 in grant funds, so that it can specifically address the following key points:
• Provide more flexibility for development in open space areas while allowing for views and rural appearances where appropriate.
• Preserve views of ridgelines south of the I-10 Freeway and along Oak Glen Road. • Distinguish the difference between functional open space and natural/environmental sensitive areas.
• Manage traffic impacts.
• Hide the allowed warehouses from the I-10 Freeway and adjacent City Streets. • Maintain overarching goals and objectives from the 2008 plan.
O1/12/2026 City Council Agenda 99
At the September 22, 2025, Regular City Council meeting, a study session was held to outline the potential impacts that would result from the overturn of the FCSP. Should the FCSP ultimately be overturned, either by direct action from the City Council, or through a vote directly from the community itself, direction will be needed on potential paths forward. Those potential impacts are summarized as follows:
• The most immediate impact will be the General Fund costs for the FCSP and Update (Approximately $1.9 million), which were intended to be repaid with revenues/fees from the future development of the freeway corridor and would no longer occur, resulting in the General Fund absorbing $1.2 million of those costs).
• Impact to the Housing Element — the short-term violation of the Housing Element and its programs and then planning for future housing sites once the FCSP becomes ineligible. These planning efforts will result in additional costs for the City to facilitate upzoning of different areas of the community, as required by the state of California. • Long-term financial impacts and strategy for economic development to ensure the ability to maintain services into the future. With the changes to the retail industry, significant sales tax generating uses are unlikely to develop north of Interstate 10 along Yucaipa Boulevard, and would instead likely be facilitated in neighboring jurisdictions.
Should the City Council want to explore amending the 2025 FCSP Update, additional direction will also be needed. The 2008 FCSP is opposed by all the property owners within the plan area, whereas the 2025 Update is supported by all property owners except one majority property owner who would like additional development capacity, but allows for potential development to occur. In addition, since other previous development proposals for the area have similarly ended in referendums, Council should consider whether any additional funding from the General Fund should be expended to facilitate development of these private properties. For the City Council's consideration, the following table includes the approximate amount of General Fund resources that have been spent and could potentially be spent based on the option or scenario moving forward:

CEQA FINDINGS OF FACT
AND STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS
REGARDING THE
FINAL SUBSEQUENT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
FOR THE
FREEWAY CORRIDOR SPECIFIC PLAN PROJECT
STATE CLEARINGHOUSE NO. 2006041096
Exhibit A
I. INTRODUCTION
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires that a number of written findings be made by the lead agency in connection with certification of an environmental impact report (EIR) prior to approval of the project pursuant to Sections 15091 and 15093 of the CEQA Guidelines and Section 21081 of the Public Resources Code. This document provides the findings required by CEQA. The potential environmental effects of the proposed Freeway Corridor Specific Plan project (Proposed Project) have been analyzed in a Draft Subsequent Environmental Impact Report (Draft SEIR) (State Clearinghouse [SCH] 2006041096) dated February 2024. A Final SEIR has also been prepared that incorporates the Draft SEIR and contains comments received on the Draft SEIR, responses to the individual comments, revisions to the Draft SEIR, and the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program for the Proposed Project (MMRP). This document provides the findings required by CEQA for approval of the Proposed Project.
A. STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS FOR FINDINGS
The CEQA (Pub. Res. Code 54 21000, et seq.) and the State CEQA Guidelines (Guidelines) (14 Ca.
Code Regs 5§ 15000, et seq.) promulgated thereunder, require the environmental impacts of a project be examined before a project is approved. Specifically, regarding findings, Guidelines Section 15091 provides:
(a) No public agency shall approve or carry out a project for which an EIR has been certified which identifies one or more significant environmental effects of the project unless the public agency makes one or more written findings for each of those significant effects, accompanied by a brief explanation of the rationale for each finding. The possible findings are:
Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the final EIR.
2. Such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and not the agency making the finding. Such changes have been adopted by such other agency or can and should be adopted by such other agency.

3. Specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the final EIR.
(b) The findings required by subsection (a) shall be supported by substantial evidence in the record.
(c) The finding in subdivision (a)(2) shall not be made if the agency making the finding has concurrent jurisdiction with another agency to deal with identified feasible mitigation measures or alternatives. The finding in subsection (a)(3) shall describe the specific reasons for rejecting identified mitigation measures and project alternatives.
(d) When making the findings required in subdivision (a)(1), the agency shall also adopt a program for reporting on or monitoring the changes which it has either required in the project or made a condition of approval to avoid or substantially lessen significant environmental effects. These measures must be fully enforceable through permit conditions, agreements, or other measures.
(e) The public agency shall specify the location and custodian of the documents or other material which constitute the record of the proceedings upon which its decision is based.
(f) A statement made pursuant to Section 15093 does not substitute for the findings required by this section.
The "changes or alterations" referred to in Section 15091(a)(1) above, that are required in, or incorporated into, the project which mitigate or avoid the significant environmental effects of the project, may include a wide variety of measures or actions as set forth in Guidelines Section 15370, including:
(a) Avoiding the impact altogether by not taking a certain action or parts of an action.
(b) Minimizing impacts by limiting the degree or magnitude of the action and its implementation.
(c) Rectifying the impact by repairing, rehabilitating, or restoring the impacted environment.
(d) Reducing or eliminating the impact over time by preservation and maintenance operations during the life of the action.

(e) Compensating for the impact by replacing or providing substitute resources or environments, including through permanent protection of such resources in the form of conservation easements.
Regarding a Statement of Overriding Considerations, Guidelines Section 15093 provides:
(a) CEQA requires the decision -making agency to balance, as applicable, the economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits, including region -wide or statewide environmental benefits, of a proposed project against its unavoidable environmental risks when determining whether to approve the project. If the specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other benefits, including region -wide or statewide environmental benefits, of a proposed project outweigh the unavoidable adverse environmental effects, the adverse environmental effects may be considered "acceptable." (b) When the lead agency approves a project which will result in the occurrence of significant effects which are identified in the final EIR but are not substantially lessened, the agency shall state in writing the specific reasons to support its action based on the final EIR and/or other information in the record. The statement of overriding considerations shall be supported by substantial evidence in the record.
(c) If an agency makes a statement of overriding considerations, the statement should be included in the record of the project approval and should be mentioned in the notice of determination. This statement does not substitute for, and shall be in addition to, findings required pursuant to Section 15091.

In summary, the City conducted all required noticing and scoping for the Proposed Project in accordance with Section 15083 of the CEQA Guidelines, and conducted the public review for the SEIR, which exceeded the requirements of Section 15087 of the CEQA Guidelines.
B. FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT AND CITY COUNCIL
PROCEEDINGS
The City prepared a Final SEIR, including Responses to Comments to the Draft SEIR. The Final SEIR/Response to Comments contains comments on the Draft SEIR, responses to those comments, and revisions to the Draft SEIR. A total of nine comment letters were received from public agencies and organizations.
The most prevalent concerns raised in these comment letters included pertained to air quality, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, hydrology and water quality, and transportation.
The Final SEIR found that prior to mitigation, implementation of the Proposed Project will result in potentially significant impacts to Aesthetics, Air Quality, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Geology and Soils, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Hydrology and Water Quality, Noise, and Tribal Cultural Resources. However, mitigation measures (MMs) have been developed to avoid or reduce all of these impacts to levels considered less than significant, with the exception of Air Quality, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, and Noise. The City prepared a Statement of Overriding Considerations for the impacts found to be significant and unavoidable:
Air Quality
Impact 5.3-1: Specific Plan. Operation of the Proposed Project would exceed the South Coast AQMD regional significance thresholds and have the potential to conflict with the South Coast AQMD's AQMPP, Mitigation Measures for construction (see Impact 5.3-2) and operation (see Impact 5.3-3) would reduce emissions to the extent feasible. However, Impact 5.3-1 would be significant and unavoidable for the Proposed Project.
Impact 5.3-1: Pacific Oaks Commerce Center. Operation of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would exceed the South Coast AQMD regional significance thresholds and have the potential to conflict with the South Coast AQMD's AQMP. Mitigation Measures for construction (see Impact 5.3-2) and operation (see Impact 5.3-3) would reduce emissions to the extent feasible.
However, Impact 5.3-1 would be significant and unavoidable for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center.
Impact 5.3-2: Specific Plan. Construction of the Proposed Project, like the Approved Project, would exceed the South Coast Air Quality Management District (South Coast AQMD) regional significance thresholds. While mitigation would substantially reduce construction -related volatile organic compounds (VOC), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions, the regional significance thresholds for these criteria air pollutants would still be exceeded for Phase
1. Implementation of mitigation would reduce the maximum daily emissions of VOC for Phases 2 through 7 to below the regional significance threshold. However, due to the remaining Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project
CEQA Findings of Fact and
Statement of Overriding Considerations - 6 -
01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 123
exceedances for Phase 1, Impact 5.3-2 would be significant and unavoidable for the Proposed Project.
■ Impact 5.3-2: Pacific Oaks Commerce Center. Construction of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would exceed the South Coast AQMD regional significance thresholds. Mitigation Measure AQ-6 would reduce VOC emissions to below the regional significance threshold. However, construction activities associated with the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would continue to generate NOx and CO emissions that exceed the respective South Coast AQMD regional significance thresholds. Therefore, Impact 5.3-2 as it pertains to the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would be signidcant and unavoidable.
■ Impact 5.3-3: Specific Plan. Long-term operation of the Proposed Project, like the Approved Project, would exceed the South Coast AQMD regional significance thresholds. While mitigation would reduce emissions, the regional significance thresholds for these criteria air pollutants would still be exceeded. Impact 5.3-3 would be sign&cant and unavoidable for the Proposed Project. ■ Impact 5.3-3: Pacific Oaks Commerce Center. Long-term operation of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would exceed the South Coast AQMD regional significance thresholds.
While mitigation would reduce emissions, the regional significance thresholds for these criteria air pollutants would still be exceeded. Impact 5.3-3 would be signi&cant and unavoidable for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project.
■ Impact 5.3-4: Specific Plan. Localized construction emissions associated with buildout of the Proposed Project have the potential to exceed the South Coast AQNID's cancer risk threshold.
Implementation of Mitigation Measure AQ-6 would require future projects accommodated under the Freeway Corridor Specific Plan (FCSP) to use off -road equipment fitted with engines that meet the USEPA Tier 4 Final standards for emissions. This measure would reduce toxic air contaminant (TAC) emissions from off -road construction equipment. Due to the scale and construction intensity of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project, it is assumed to represent the worst -case project accommodated under the Specific Plan in terms of construction impacts. Thus, it is anticipated that individual future development projects accommodated under the Proposed Project would have similar health risk levels and would have less than significant health risk impacts. However, while individual future projects might have less than significant health risk impacts, the combined construction activities associated with development of all the land uses accommodated under the Proposed Project could contribute to elevated levels in the area.
Therefore, out of an abundance of caution, Impact 5.3-4 is conservatively identified as significant and unavoidable.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
■ Impact 5.8-1: Specific Plan. The Proposed Project, like the Approved Project, would generate GHG emissions that exceed the conservative no net increase threshold. Implementation of Mitigation Measures AQ-2 through AQ-5 and Mitigation Measures GHG-1 and GHG-2 would reduce emissions to the extent feasible. However, Impact 5.8-1 would be sign&cant and unavoidable.

■ Impact 5.8-1: Pacific Oaks Commerce Center. The Proposed Project, like the Approved Project, would generate GHG emissions that exceed the conservative no net increase threshold.
Implementation of Mitigation Measures AQ-2 and AQ-4, and Mitigation Measures GHG-1 and GHG-2 would reduce emissions to the extent feasible. However, Impact 5.8-1 as it pertains to the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would be significant and unavoidable.
Noise
■ Impact 5.13-2: Specific Plan. Implementation of the Proposed Project would result in a substantial long-term operation -related noise that could exceed the City's noise standards. The City requires applicants for new development projects to submit a noise study to mitigate operational noise impacts in accordance with the standard COAs. At the plan level, Impact 5.13-2, is considered sign&cant and unavoidable.
■ Impact 5.13-3: Specific Plan. Implementation of the Proposed Project would result in a substantial increase in long-term traffic -related noise levels that exceed local standards. The Certified EIR identified that it is not considered practical or feasible to mitigate traffic noise impacts, as it would require making alterations to private off -site properties over which applicants of future development projects would have no control. Impact 5.13-3, plan -level and cumulative traffic noise impacts are considered sign£rcantand unavoidable. ■ Impact 5.13-3: Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Plan. Implementation of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would result in a substantial increase in long-term traffic -related noise levels that exceed local standards. The Certified EIR identified that it is not considered practical or feasible to mitigate traffic noise impacts, as it would require making alterations to private off - site properties over which applicants of future development projects would have no control.
Impact 5.13-3 traffic noise impacts are considered signs&cant and unavoidable for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project.
Members of the public can view searchable agendas for scheduled City Council meetings and access agenda -related City information and services directly on the following website:

the south. Regional access to the plan area is provided by I-10 from the east and west. Local access is provided by Live Oak Canyon Road, County Line Road, Oak Glen Road, Wildwood Canyon Road, and Calimesa Boulevard.
Land uses in the FCSP consist primarily of agricultural land (ranching and farming), a limited number of residences, a wastewater treatment plant, and miscellaneous commercial uses such as an outdoor pottery store and storage. The Live Oak Canyon Pumpkin Farm operates seasonally, with its peak season in the fall. The pumpkin farm operates a corn maze (fall only), carnival -type rides and games, tractor/hay rides, pony rides, petting zoo, Christmas Tree sales (winter only), U-pick pumpkin patch, and concessions (fall only) during the fall and winter seasons.' The Henry N. Wochholz Regional Water Recycling Facility (WRF) is owned and operated by the Yucaipa Valley Water District (YVWD). This land use is isolated from the other areas in the FCSP and can only be accessed via a secondary road from County Line Road. The FCSP Update identifies these parcels as "not a part" (N.A.P.) of the Proposed Project because it is solely owned by the YVWD.
F. PROJECT OBJECTIVES
The following objectives have been established for the Proposed Project and will aid decision makers in their review of the Proposed Project and associated environmental impacts.
1. Create a place that reflects the unique character of Yucaipa and ultimately supports the community's needs into the future.
2. Allow a degree of flexibility for development that can provide a standard of quality without stifling opportunities or imposing inflexible regulations that would preclude creative development response.
3. Offer a mixture of residential, commercial, and business park development that reflects the changing conditions in Yucaipa brought about by decline in demand for brick -and -mortar stores and increase in demand for logistics/distribution.
4. Support and facilitate opportunities to meet the City's housing requirements as reflected by the Regional Housing Needs Assessment for current and future housing cycles, as well as comply with SB330 regarding "no net loss" of residential zoned capacity.
5. Provide community amenities such as trails and permanent open space areas that will preserve major ridgelines and drainage corridors.
The Yucaipa City Council had typically authorized a special event permit (SEP) annually to the Pumpkin Factory to operate the Live Oak Canyon Pumpkin Patch and Christmas Tree Farm. Live Oak Canyon Farm has operated the pumpkin patch and Christmas tree farm for over 30 years prior to the incorporation of the City of Yucaipa, and the City has authorized a SEP for the pumpkin patch and Christmas tree farm every year since 2017, which has since been memorialized with the approval of a conditional use permit. The farm has 900 parking spaces onsite and addition 300 parking spaces on Live Oak Canyon Road. Special events at the farm run from mid -September to the end of December and may generate up to 100,000 visitors over the course of the special event. The Live Oak Canyon Pumpkin Patch and Christmas Tree Farm will continue to operate with implementation of the Proposed Project.

Provide employment as well as retail and entertainment opportunities for those living in the community.
7. Take advantage of the freeway visibility and access to serve both local and regional needs.
8. Support the existing agricultural operations at the Live Oak Canyon Pumpkin Farm.
Design a safe and efficient circulation system that adequately supports the anticipated level of vehicular, pedestrian, and bicycle traffic in and around the project.
10. Comprehensively plan the FCSP area with consideration of other contiguous areas to ensure compatible and complementary development, circulation patterns, infrastructure, and services.
G. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Freeway Corridor Specific Plan (Approved Project)
The FCSP provides the planning tools necessary to guide development in the plan area. The Specific Plan includes proposed land uses, development regulations and design standards. In addition, the FCSP provides for a multimodal trail and circulation system, infrastructure facilities required to support implementation of the plan, and a plan for managing natural resources. 2008 Certified EIR
The Proposed Project in an update to the FCSP; therefore, this SEIR relies on the findings of the 2008 EIR and the 2022 Addendum and, per CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, contains all the information necessary to ensure that the certified FCSP EIR fully evaluates the Proposed Project. The 2008 EIR and addendum, though discussed separately here, are collectively referred to in this SEIR as the 2008 Certified EIR. In accordance with CEQA Guidelines Sections 15148 and 15150, this SEIR incorporates the 2008 Certified EIR (and its constituent parts) by reference. A summary of the 2008 Certified EIR follows.
2008 Final EIR
The FCSP Environmental Impact Report (State Clearinghouse No. 2004041096) was certified in November 2008. The Final EIR consists of the 2007 Draft EIR and the 2008 Recirculated Draft EIR, response to comments, revisions to the EIR based on comments, and the mitigation monitoring and reporting program. The Final EIR evaluated impacts associated with 424.7 acres for residential development, with a maximum of 2,767 dwelling units, 242.5 acres of nonresidential development,
25.3 acres of right-of-way (ROW), and 549.0 acres of open space. The Certified EIR identified significant and unavoidable impacts associated with the FCSP for the following topical areas:
Aesthetics, Agriculture, Air Quality, Biological Resource, Land Use and Planning, and Noise. 2022 County Line Road Warehouse Addendum
The Approved Project includes project updates to the Specific Plan since certification of the 2008 EIR.

Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Update (Proposed Project) The Proposed Project is an update to the FCSP to guide development within the 1,238-acre plan area.
The Proposed Project would result in a total of 2,472 residential units and 5,093,265 square feet of nonresidential uses. The Specific Plan includes a list of permitted, conditionally permitted, and prohibited land uses and development standards associated with the land use designations.
Buildout Comparison to the Approved Project
The Proposed Project would result in increases of 25 dwelling units and 69 people, a reduction of approximately 2.28 million square feet of Regional Commercial (RC), an increase of approximately
2.79 million square feet of Business Park (BP), and a reduction of 317 employees.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Proposed Project includes a project -level analysis for buildout of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center in planning areas BP 2 and BP 3 ("project area'D. Building 1 would have 1,032,500 square feet of warehouse and 20,000 square feet of office use, for a total of 1,052,500 square feet of building space.
Building 2 would have 981,500 square feet of warehouse and 20,000 square feet of office use, for a total of 1,001,500 square feet of building space. Each building also would allow up to 25 percent of the building square footage for cold -storage uses. As a result, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would result in development of up to 2,054,000 square feet. Additional truck parking spaces are also provided as part of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center.

III. CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT FINDINGS
A. FORMAT
Section 15091 of the CEQA Guidelines requires that a Lead Agency make a finding for each significant effect for the project. This section summarizes the significant environmental impacts of the project, describes how these impacts are to be mitigated, and discusses various alternatives to the proposed project, which were developed in an effort to reduce the remaining significant environmental impacts. All impacts are considered potentially significant prior to mitigation unless otherwise stated in the findings.
This remainder of this section is divided into the following subsections:
■ Section B, Findings on "No Impact" and "Less Than Significant Impacts," presents environmental issues, as identified in Chapter 5 of the SEIR, which would result in no impact or less than significant impacts.
■ Section C, Findings on Impacts Mitigated to Less Than Significant, presents significant impacts of the Proposed Project that were identified in the Final SEIR, the mitigation measures identified in the Mitigation Monitoring Program, and the rationales for the findings. ■ Section D, Significant and Unavoidable Impacts that Cannot be Mitigated to Below the Level of Significance, presents significant impacts of the Proposed Project that were identified in the Final SEIR, the mitigation measures identified in the Mitigation Monitoring Program, the findings for significant impacts, and the rationales for the findings. ■ Section IV, Findings on Responses to Comments and Revisions to the Draft SEIR, presents the City's findings on the response to comments and revisions to Draft SEIR, and decision on whether a recirculated Draft SEIR is necessary or not.
■ Section V, Alternatives to the Proposed Project, presents alternatives to the project and evaluates them in relation to the findings set forth in Section 15091(a)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, which allows a public agency to approve a project that would result in one or more significant environmental effects if the project alternatives are found to be infeasible because of specific economic, social, or other considerations.
■ Section VI, Statement of Overriding Considerations, presents a description of the Proposed Project's the significant and unavoidable adverse impacts and the justification for adopting a statement of overriding considerations.
B. FINDINGS ON "NO IMPACT" AND "LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS" Based on the environmental issue area assessment in the Final SEIR, the City determined that the Proposed Project would have no impact or less than significant impacts, including direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts, for the environmental issues summarized below. The rationale for the conclusion that no significant impact would occur in each of the issue areas is based on the environmental Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

Plans, programs, and policies (PPP) are listed and numbered in the SEIR, and include applicable development standards and design guidelines, and conditions of approval.
The SEIR concluded that all or some of the impacts of the proposed project with respect to the following issues either will not be significant or will be reduced to below a level of significance by implementing conditions of approval, and/or the Specific Plan's development standards and design guidelines as detailed in Chapter 5 of the SEIR. Those issues include the following topical areas in their entirety or portions thereof. Aesthetics, Agriculture and Forestry Resources, Air Quality, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Energy, Geology and Soils, Hazards and Hazardous Materials, Hydrology and Water Quality, Land Use and Planning, Mineral Resources, Noise, Population and Housing, Public Services, Recreation, Transportation, Utilities and Service Systems, and Wildfire.
CEQA Guidelines Section 15901 requires that an EIR may not be certified for a project which has one or more significant environmental effects unless one of three possible findings is made for each significance effect. Since the following environmental issue areas were determined to have no impact or a less than significant impact, no findings for these issues are required.
1. Aesthetics
Specific Plan PPPs
The following are plans, programs, and policies (PPPs) that would reduce the Proposed Project's potential aesthetics impacts:
Development Standards
Chapter 4, Development Standards, of the FCSP regulates the planning and development of all properties in the plan area. The FCSP identifies general provisions; permitted land uses; development standards; landscape standards; sign regulations; common open space, parks, trails, and hillside preservation; and infrastructure for residential and nonresidential uses. For example:
■ Landscaping Standards:
• Strategically place large specimen (48-inch box) to assist new development in looking "established" as quickly as possible. Parkways shall be planted with shade trees and shrubs to provide a pleasant pedestrian environment and contribute to streetscape continuity. • Landscaping shall be used to provide screening for unattractive and/or unsightly service areas, and serve as buffers between neighboring uses.
■ Master Sign Program:
• The Master Sign Program shall ensure that commercial center and business park signage is harmonious, integrates appropriately with the architecture of the center, and provides for adequate exposure of all tenants.

Design Guidelines
Chapter 5, Design Guidelines, of the FCSP provides direction concerning the site planning, landscaping, building design, and site features for residential and nonresidential uses that promote the aesthetics appropriate for this area in order to maintain the rural character of Yucaipa. For example:
■ Development should incorporate existing natural features into the overall site design, including rock outcroppings, major landforms, ridgelines, significant trees and vegetation, streams, and drainage areas.
■ Service, utility, and loading areas should be carefully designed, located, and integrated into the site plan for convenient access by service vehicles and tenants while minimizing visibility. ■ Where commercial uses are adjacent to noncommercial uses, appropriate buffering techniques, such as increased minimum setbacks, screening, and landscaping, should be provided to mitigate any negative effects of the commercial operations. Any noise -generating uses should be located away from adjacent residential uses.
■ Lighting should be used to provide illumination for the security and safety of onsite areas such as parking, loading, and pathways.
■ Outdoor light fixtures that provide nighttime safety and security should be selected to conserve energy, protect the night sky, and minimize glare and light trespass within and beyond the project site.
■ Roof forms should be designed to completely screen roof -mounted equipment from public view.
Impact 5.1-1: Development pursuant to the Proposed Project would not impact scenic vistas. [Threshold AE-1]
Scenic Vistas
FCSP Buildout
Since adoption of the 2008 FCSP, the City of Yucaipa has adopted an update to its General Plan. The General Plan identifies that scenic features include gently sloping alluvial fans, rugged mountains and steep slopes, mountain peaks and ridges, rounded hills, and open space. Scenic vistas are views of these features from public spaces such as the Oak Glen Preserve, Wildwood Canyon State Park, Crafton Hills, and El Dorado Ranch Park.
General Plan Figure CDL-4, Hillside Overlay District, shows that there are "Other Ridgelines" in the southwestern portion of the plan area and a Hillside Overlay District along the northern boundary but no "Prominent Ridgelines" in the plan area. The General Plan identified the plan area as providing a panoramic vista into Live Oak Canyon.
Because there are no scenic vistas in the plan area and lands are privately owned, impacts to scenic vistas that are visible from the plan area would be less than significant —impacts to private views are Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project
CEQA Findings of Fact and
Statement of Overriding Considerations - 15 -
01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 132
not considered a significant impact under CEQA. Public views of the scenic vistas surrounding the plan area, such as Live Oak Canyon, would continue to be visible from public vantage points (roadways, lookout points, etc.) as development would not occur in such areas. Furthermore, per the Citywide Design Guidelines, Oak Glen Road would include ground cover, shrubs, trees, and signage to display a rustic theme while serving as the gateway to the apple orchards in Oak Glen and preserving the scenic views. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center is within the FCSP, and because there are no scenic vistas in the plan area, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would also not result in impacts to scenic vistas.
While public views of scenic vistas, such as Live Oak Canyon, surround the FCSP, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project site is located in the central portion of the plan area, and would not result in impacts to scenic vistas. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts of aesthetics to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts relating to scenic vistas. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.1-2: The Proposed Project would not alter scenic resources within a state scenic highway. [Threshold AE-2]
State Scenic Highway
FCSP Buildout
Since the 2008 EIR was certified, the Yucaipa General Plan now designates Oak Glen Road, Wildwood Canyon Road, Live Oak Canyon, and future spine roads in the Freeway Corridor Specific Plan area as scenic corridors. The nearest State -eligible scenic highway is SR-38, which is over 3.7 miles north of the plan area; the nearest officially designated scenic highway is the portion of SR-38 near Sugarloaf Mountain, which is over 8 miles northeast of the plan area.
The areas of the FCSP adjacent to Oak Glen Road, Wildwood Canyon Road, and Live Oak Canyon are designated open space, agro-commercial tourism, business park, commercial, and residential uses.
The lower density, agricultural, and open space land uses would not alter views of scenic resources that could be viewed from the surrounding roadways. Chapter 4, Development Standards, and Chapter 5, Design Guidelines, of the FCSP provide provisions that guide development in the plan area, such as incorporating natural features (e.g., rock outcroppings), into the overall site design. All development in the plan area would be required to adhere to the development standards and design guidelines of the FCSP to ensure proposed structures do not alter views from such roadways. Additionally, given Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

the distance, varying topography, and structures between the plan area and SR-38, impacts to designated and eligible state scenic highways would not occur. Furthermore, per the Citywide Design Guidelines, Oak Glen Road would include ground cover, shrubs, trees, and signage to display a rustic theme while serving as the gateway to the apple orchards in Oak Glen and preserving the scenic views from this locally designated scenic corridor. As with the 2008 Certified EIR, the FCSP would not result in impacts to scenic resources along a state scenic highway.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project is in the interior of the site with access from Oak Glen Road, which was designated as a local scenic corridor in the 2016 General Plan. No State -designated scenic highways are visible from the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center site. Similar to the impacts identified for the proposed FCSP, no impacts to designated and eligible state scenic highways would result from implementation of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts relating to scenic resources within a state scenic highway. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.1-3: Development pursuant to the Proposed Project would change the visual character of the Specific Plan site but would not conflict with applicable zoning and other regulations governing scenic quality compared to the land uses approved in the 2008 Certified EIR. [Threshold AE-3] Visual Character
FCSP Buildout
The Approved Project represents the CEQA baseline. Though impacts associated with the Approved Project were identified as significant and unavoidable in the 2008 Certified EIR, the impacts of the Proposed Project are not based on existing conditions but assume conditions of the built -out Approved Project (i.e., the developed condition). Land uses associated with the Proposed Project would generally be in the same area as the Approved Project. However, under the Proposed Project there are three major differences: (1) under the Proposed Project, the planning area known as the Pumpkin Patch would remain designated Agro-Commercial Tourism, which would preserve the existing landforms and agricultural areas adjacent to Live Oak Canyon Road and I-10 compared to development of a focused retail area under the Approved Project; (2) the introduction of the Business Park designation in the interior of the site (i.e., Pacific Oaks Commerce Center) would require substantially more landform modification compared to the residential areas previously designated under the Approved Project; and (3) the Proposed Project would result in a reduction in natural open Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

space (Open Space Conservation [OS-C] and Open Space [OS]) compared to the Approved Project because the wastewater treatment plant (which previously included open space) is now considered "not -a -part," and the OS designation now allows for agricultural uses (however, agricultural uses and grazing have continued on OS -designated areas).
The elevation change over the entire plan area is approximately 450 feet. Approximately 19 percent of the site has slopes over 40 percent (steep terrain). Development of slopes that are 15 percent and above are subject to Hillside Development Review. Grading applied to the plan area for this Amendment achieves a 2:1 ratio (height over distance), which would increase with the slope. The objectives of the FCSP include complying with applicable development standards to preserve key ridgelines and regulating hillside and ridgeline development to maintain a rural atmosphere consistent with the City's identity. The FCSP is designed to vary the slope ratio from 2:1 to 5:1 (horizontal to vertical). Where proposed grades meet existing topography, the grades would be rounded to blend and provide a natural effect.
The Grading Plan is based on the several main principles, such as preserving land designated as Open Space which includes the major significant rdgelines in the plan area, situating the finished elevation of building pads so they complement the character of adjacent natural topography, designing new roads to follow the existing topography to minimize grading, contour grading all new roads to minimize grading, and performing grading techniques consistent with the required grading permits and geotechnical reports.
Even though the development code generally prohibits development on slopes of 41 percent or greater, this is primarily meant to concentrate or intensify development on less environmentally sensitive terrain, not to prohibit development or reduce permitted density. Enforcement of ridgeline preservation is based on the significance of individual projects at the discretion of the Planning Commission.
However, the Proposed Project and Approved Project would essentially result in a similar pattern of undeveloped and developed areas. The OS-C and AT designations would preserve views of natural features in the surrounding areas. Chapter 4, Development Standards, and Chapter 5, Design Guidelines, of the FSCP include standards and guidelines for development in the plan area, such as height and placement of buildings and structures, setback requirements, and architectural design parameters. Compliance with the development standards and design guidelines would ensure that development of the residential and nonresidential areas would be compatible with the surrounding land uses and ensure that the Proposed Project would not have a substantial impact on scenic resources.
As with the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would result in substantial changes in the visual character of the plan area, with conversion of open space and animal grazing areas to urban/suburban land use. However, when compared to the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard. Therefore, impacts of the Proposed Project are less than significant.

Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
In the 2008 Certified EIR, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project area was proposed to be primarily a residential area. Under the Proposed Project, business park uses would be constructed in this area. The development of the business park land uses would require substantial landform modification to create flat pads for the warehouse buildings, which would impact some of the major ridgelines. However, to protect the viewshed of travelers on eastbound I-10 and Live Oak Canyon Road, key ridgelines would still be avoided.
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would adhere to the development standards and design guidelines in the Specific Plan. The proposed buildings would be 60 feet tall; according to the FCSP, the maximum height for structures in the Business Park land use is 80 feet. The design guidelines of the FCSP also state that buildings should include 360-degree architecture, blank walls should be softened through the use of doors and windows, and roof forms should be designed to completely screen roof -mounted equipment from public views. Additionally, the proposed buildings would include architectural design features from all directions, windows, various material and color types, varying rooflines and roof styles, other architectural features, and parapets that would comply with the design guidelines of the FCSP.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts of aesthetics to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts relating to visual character. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.1-4: For Impact 5.1-4, refer to Section C, Findings on Significant Environmental Impacts that can be Reduced to a Less than Significant Level.
2. Agriculture and Forestry Resources
Specific Plan PPPs
The following are plans, programs, and policies (PPPs) that would reduce the Proposed Project's potential impacts to agriculture resources:
Development Standards
Chapter 4, Development Standards, of the FCSP regulates the planning and development of all properties in the plan area. The FCSP identifies general provisions; permitted land uses; development standards; landscape standards; sign regulations; common open space, parks, trails, and hillside preservation; and infrastructure for residential and nonresidential uses. For example:
■ Landscape Standards

01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 136
The introduction of vineyards to support the Yucaipa Valley American Viticultural Area is allowed on disturbed slopes or agricultural areas.
Impact 5.2-1: The proposed project would not convert Prime Farmland or Unique Farmland to nonagricultural uses. [Thresholds AG-1, AG-5 (part)] .
Conversion of Agricultural Uses to Non -Agricultural Uses FCSP Buildout
Implementation of the Proposed Project would result in a new Agro-Commercial Tourism land use designation that would make up approximately 47.5 acres of the plan area. Additionally, the Open Space designation of the Proposed Project would allow agricultural uses.
The areas designated Prime Farmland and Unique Farmland would be designated Agro-Commercial Tourism under the Proposed Project, whereas the Approved Project designated these lands Regional Commercial. The agricultural operations associated with the Live Oak Pumpkin Patch and Christmas Tree Farm would continue to operate. The Proposed Project would not convert the Prime Farmland and Unique Farmland in the plan area to nonagricultural uses, and no impact would occur. In addition, existing grazing areas and other opportunities for agriculture would be allowed with the Proposed Project.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would have a beneficial impact to agricultural resources and would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project site is designated Grazing Land. CEQA does not consider impacts to Grazing Land. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in the loss or conversion of agricultural land to nonagricultural uses. No impacts would occur. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts of agriculture and forestry resources to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have no significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts relating to the conversion of agricultural land to non-agricultural land.
Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

Impact 5.2-2: The proposed project would not conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use or a Williamson Act contract. [Threshold AG-2].
Existing Agricultural Zoning/Williamson Act Contracts
FCSP Buildout
There are no Williamson Act lands in the plan area. Under the Proposed Project, the plan area would consist of residential, commercial, business park, open space, and agro-commercial tourism zoning/land use designations. As with the Approved Project, the FCSP would not conflict with zoning for agricultural uses or Williamson Act contracts. No impact would occur. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
There are no Williamson Act lands in the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project area.
In the Approved Project, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project area was proposed to be all residential, and under the Proposed Project the project area would be business park uses. Therefore, The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project area would not conflict with zoning for agricultural uses or Williamson Act contracts. No impact would occur. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts of agriculture and forestry resources to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have no significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts relating to conflicting with agricultural zoning or a Williamson Act contract.
Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.2-3: The proposed project would not conflict with existing zoning for foresdand, nor would the proposed project result in the loss of forest land on -site. [Thresholds AG-3, AG-4, and AG-5 (part)].
Forestland
FCSP Buildout
There is no forest land in the plan area. Land uses within the FCSP consist primarily of agricultural land (ranching and farming), a limited number of residences, a wastewater treatment plant, and miscellaneous commercial uses such as an outdoor pottery store and storage. The Proposed Project would not conflict with zoning for forest land or result in the loss of forest land. No impact would occur.

There is no forest land in the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project area. Land uses in the project area consist of agricultural land (ranching and farming). The Proposed Project would not conflict with zoning for forest land or result in the loss of forest land. No impact would occur.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts of agriculture and forestry resources to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have no significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts relating to conflicting with forestland zoning or a loss in forestland.
Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
3. Air Quality
Specific Plan PPPs
The FCSP Update does not include specific goals, design standards, or design guidelines related to air quality.
Impact 5.3-1: For Impact 5.3-1, refer to Section D, Significant and Unavoidable Impacts that Cannot be Mitigated to Below the Level of Significance.

Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Construction -Phase Localized Significance Thresholds
Screening -level Localized Significance Thresholds (LSTs) (pounds per day) are the amount of project - related mass emissions at which localized concentrations (ppm or µg/mj) could exceed the Ambient Air Quality Standards (AAQS) for criteria air pollutants for which the South Coast Air Basin (SoCAB) is designated nonattainment. They are based on the acreage disturbed and distance to the nearest sensitive receptor. Screening -level LSTs are based on a proposed project site size and distance to the nearest sensitive receptor. Thresholds are based on the California AAQS, which are the most stringent, established to provide a margin of safety in the protection of the public's health and welfare. They are designed to protect sensitive receptors most susceptible to further respiratory distress, such as asthmatics, the elderly, very young children, people already weakened by other disease or illness, and persons engaged in strenuous work or exercise. Table 5.3-16, Paci, fic Oaks Commerce Center Maximum Daily On -Site Locali.Zed Construction Emissions, of the Draft SEIR, shows the maximum daily construction emissions (pounds per day) generated during on -site construction activities compared with the South Coast Air Quality Management District (South Coast AQMD)'s screening -level LSTs.
The on -site PMio and PM2.5 emissions shown represent the total on -site particulate matter emissions from vehicle exhaust and fugitive dust. On -site NOx and CO emissions are from off -road equipment exhaust. As shown in Table 5.3-16, maximum daily construction emissions would not exceed the South Coast AQMD screening -level LSTs for CO. However, construction activities would exceed the screening -level LSTs for NOx, PNlio, and PM2.5.
In accordance with South Coast 1WN1D methodology, because the Proposed Project would result in construction activities that generate on -site emissions exceeding the NOx, PMio, and PM2.; screening - level LSTs, dispersion modeling was conducted using AERNIOD (v. 11.2) air dispersion modeling program. The calculated concentration levels associated with the construction activities that would not generate on -site emissions exceeding the screening -level LSTs are shown in Table 5.3-17, Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Construction LSTs, of the Draft SEIR.
As shown in Table 5.3-17, project -related construction activities would not generate emissions that would exceed the South Coast AQMD LSTs. Thus, construction activities associated with the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not generate emissions that expose receptors to substantial concentrations of criteria air pollutants, and impacts are considered less than significant. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would not result in new significant impacts or a substantial increase in significant impacts compared to the Approved Project.
Construction Phase Toxic Air Contaminants
The Proposed Project would elevate concentrations of Toxic Air Contaminants (TACs) (i.e., Diesel Particulate Matter [DPM]) in the vicinity of sensitive land uses during temporary construction activities that would use offroad equipment operating on -site, and at different levels depending on the type of activity. A site -specific construction Health Risk Assessment (HRA) of TACs was prepared to quantify potential health risk emissions during construction (see Appendix D of the Draft SEIR). The results of the analysis are shown in Table 5.3-18, Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Construction Risk Summary, of the Draft SEIR, and demonstrate that there would be no exceedance of identified thresholds.
Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project
CEQA Findings of Fact and
Statement of Overriding Considerations - 23 -
01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 140
The results of the HRA are based on the maximum receptor concentration over the entire construction exposure duration for receptors:
Cancer risk for the Maximum Exposed Individual Resident (MEIR) from construction activities would be 9.4 in a million, which would not exceed the 10 in a million significance threshold.
For noncarcinogenic effects, the chronic hazard index identified for each toxicological endpoint totaled less than one for all the sensitive receptors. Therefore, chronic noncarcinogenic hazards are less than significant.
Because cancer risks for the MEIR would not exceed South Coast AQMD significance threshold, construction activities associated with the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center are less than significant.
Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would not result in new significant impacts or a substantial increase in significant impacts compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact associated with construction -phase LSTs and TACs for the Pacific Oak Commerce Center project. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.3-5: For Impact 5.3-5, refer to Section C, Findings on Significant Environmental Impacts that can be Reduced to a Less than Significan t Level.
Impact 5.3-6: The proposed project would not result in other emissions that would adversely affect a substantial number of people [Threshold AQ-4]
Other Emissions/Odors
The threshold for odor is if a project creates an odor nuisance pursuant to South Coast AQMD Rule 402, Nuisance, which states:
A person shall not discharge from any source whatsoever such quantities of air contaminants or other material which cause injury, detriment, nuisance, or annoyance to any considerable number of persons or to the public, or which endanger the comfort, repose, health or safety of any such persons or the public, or which cause, or have a natural tendency to cause, injury or damage to business or property. The provisions of this rule shall not apply to odors emanating from agricultural operations necessary for the growing of crops or the raising of fowl or animals.
FCSP Buildout
Construction
During construction activities, construction equipment exhaust and application of asphalt and architectural coatings would generate odors. Any construction -related odor emissions would be Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project
CEQA Findings of Fact and

01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 141
temporary and intermittent. Additionally, noxious odors would be confined to the immediate vicinity of the construction equipment. By the time such emissions reached any sensitive receptor sites, they would be diluted to well below any level of air quality concern. Furthermore, short-term construction - related odors are expected to cease upon the drying or hardening of odor -producing materials.
Therefore, impacts associated with construction -generated odors are considered less than significant.
Operation
The type of facilities that are considered to have objectionable odors include wastewater treatment plants, compost facilities, landfills, solid waste transfer stations, fiberglass manufacturing facilities, paint/coating operations (e.g., auto body shops), dairy farms, petroleum refineries, asphalt batch plants, chemical manufacturing, and food manufacturing facilities. The Proposed Project includes residential and business park land uses and would not include these types of land uses. Additionally, agricultural land uses associated with the Live Oak Canyon Pumpkin Patch would be similar to existing conditions.
Additionally, the Proposed Project would be required to comply with South Coast AQMD Rule 402.
The Proposed Project would not result in a new impact or a substantial increase in the magnitude of impacts compared to the Approved Project. Therefore, like the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would not generate potentially significant odor impacts affecting a substantial number of people.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The odor impacts of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center are the same as for the Proposed Project.
Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new impacts or a substantial increase in the magnitude of impacts compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact associated with the creation of other emissions/odors that would adversely affect people.
Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
4. Biological Resources
Specific Plan PPPs
The following are plans, programs, and policies (PPPs) that would reduce the Proposed Project's potential biological resources impacts:
Development Standards

an investigation into the circumstances, manner, and cause of any death, and the recommendations concerning the treatment and disposition of the human remains have been made to the person responsible for the excavation, or to his or her authorized representative, in the manner provided in Section 5097.98 of the PRC. If the coroner determines that the remains are not subject to his or her authority and if the coroner recognizes or has reason to believe the human remains to be those of a Native American, he or she shall contact, by telephone within 24 hours, the Native American Heritage Commission. In the event soil -disturbing activities associated with the Proposed Project would result in the discovery of human remains, compliance with existing law would ensure that significant impacts to human remains would not occur.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard compared to the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would result in the same impacts to human remains as identified for the Specific Plan. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
Finding. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact on discovery of human remains. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
6. Energy
Specific Plan PPPs

Impact 5.6-1: Implementation of the Proposed Project would not result in potentially significant environmental impact due to wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of energy, during project construction or operation. [Threshold E-1]
Energy Associated with Construction and Operational Impacts FCSP Buildout
Construction
Electricity use would fluctuate during construction, and it is anticipated that most electric -powered construction equipment would be hand tools and lighting, which would result in minimal electricity use during construction. Natural gas is not generally required to power construction equipment.
Transportation energy use during construction would come from delivery vehicles, haul trucks, and construction employee vehicles as well as off -road construction equipment. It is anticipated that the majority of off -road construction equipment, such as what is used during grading, would be gas or diesel powered. Fuel consumption during construction was calculated based on fuel consumption data for calendar years 2024 to 2029 from the EMFAC2021 (v. 1.0.2) and OFFROAD2021 (v. 1.0.5) databases, and the results are shown in Table 5.6-2, FCSP Construction -Related Fuel Usage, of the Draft SEIR.
To limit wasteful and unnecessary energy consumption from transportation, the construction contractors would minimize nonessential idling of construction equipment during construction in accordance with the California Code of Regulations Title 13, Article 4.8, Chapter 9, Section 2449, which limits nonessential idling of diesel -powered off -road equipment to five minutes. In addition, the project site is served by Interstate 10 and other freeways in the region (e.g., State Route 60) that would provide direct routes from various areas of the region. Furthermore, both the Approved Project and Proposed Project would accommodate residential, retail, and commercial uses, which would be expected to require similar construction processes and result in similar energy consumption. The warehousing uses in the BP -designated areas introduced under the Proposed Project would be a new land use type compared to what was analyzed in the 2008 Certified EIR. However, it is anticipated that the construction processes needed for development of warehousing would be similar to other commercial uses. Therefore, in consideration of the factors discussed, the Proposed Project would not result in wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary consumption of fuel use during construction and would not result in new or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts compared to the Approved Project.
Operation
Operation of new development projects under the Proposed Project would result in demands for electricity and natural gas. Operational use of electricity and natural gas would include heating, cooling, and ventilation of buildings; water heating; operation of electrical systems; use of on -site equipment and appliances; lighting; and charging electric vehicles. The electricity and natural gas consumption for the Proposed Project and the net change from the Approved Project are shown in Table 5.6-3, FCSP Electricity and Natural Gas Demand, of the Draft SEIR. As shown in the Table, the Proposed Project Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project
CEQA Findings of Fact and
Statement of Overriding Considerations - 29 -
01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 146
would result in a decrease in electricity and natural gas demand compared to the Approved Project.
The decrease is generally attributable to the decrease in the regional commercial space.
Land uses accommodated under the FCSP would be subject to the Building Energy Efficiency Standards and CALGreen which would contribute to reducing building energy demands through energy efficiency and use of renewable energy. The 2022 Building Energy Efficiency Standards prescriptive approach includes photovoltaic and battery storage requirements for residential and nonresidential land uses, which would increase renewable energy use. For the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center, the two proposed warehouses would each have a photovoltaic system installed. Each system would generate up to 150,000 kWh per year of renewable electricity.
Under the Building Energy Efficiency Standards, buildings that are designed to meet the prescriptive approach are referred to as the "Standard Design Building." As an alternative, the Building Energy Efficiency Standards also allows projects to demonstrate under the performance approach that the building's energy efficiency would be equivalent to or greater than the Standard Design Building —that is, what the Proposed Project's energy efficiency performance would be if it were to include solar and battery storage. Compliance with the Building Energy Efficiency Standards would also include installation of a higher efficiency heating, ventilation, and thermal envelope (e.g., insulation materials), which would contribute to reducing natural gas demands and decreasing overall reliance on fossil fuels.
Furthermore, SCE is required to comply with the state's renewable portfolios standard (RPS), which mandates utilities to procure a certain proportion of electricity from eligible renewable and carbon -free sources and increasing the proportion through the coming years with an ultimate procurement requirement of 100 percent by 2045. The RPS requirements would support use of electricity by the Proposed Project that is generated from renewable or carbon -free sources.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in wasteful, inefficient, or unnecessary energy demands as it pertains to building energy and would not result in new or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts compared to the Approved Project.
Transportation Fuels
Table 5.6-4, FCSP Annual Operation -Related Fuel Usage, of the Draft SEIR, shows the annual transportation -related fuel usage for the Proposed Project and the net change compared to the Approved Project under buildout year conditions.
As shown in the Table, the FCSP would result in an increase in diesel fuel and compressed natural gas (CNG). The primary cause for the increase in diesel would be attributable to use of off -road cargo handling equipment, and to a lesser degree, an increase in heavy duty trucks that are associated with proposed warehousing uses. For CNG, the increase would be attributed to an increase in trucks generated by the proposed warehousing uses accommodated by the FCSP. Although there would be an increase in diesel and CNG demand, the Proposed Project would generally result in a decrease in Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT), which is consistent with the decrease in overall vehicle trips associated with the Proposed Project which would also result in a general decrease in gasoline and electricity demand.
Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project
CEQA Findings of Fact and
Statement of Overriding Considerations - 30 -
01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 147
In addition to the decrease in VMT per service population, fuel efficiency of vehicles during the next couple of decades to buildout year would, on average, improve compared to vehicle fuel efficiencies experienced under existing conditions, resulting in a lower per capita fuel consumption in later and buildout years assuming travel distances, travel modes, and trip rates remain the same. The improvement in fuel efficiency would be attributable to the statewide fuel reduction strategies and regulatory compliances (e.g., CAFE standards) that will make new cars more fuel efficient as well as the attrition of older, less fuel -efficient vehicles. The CAFE standards are not directly applicable to land use development projects, but to car manufacturers. However, compliance with the CAFE standards by car manufacturers would ensure that vehicles produced in future years have greater fuel efficiency and would generally result in an overall benefit of reducing fuel usage by providing the population of the project site's region with more fuel -efficient vehicle options.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts compared to that of the Approved Project, and impacts would be less than significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Construction
Table 5.6-5, Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Construction -Related Fuel Usage, of the Draft SEIR, shows the transportation energy use during construction of Wildwood Canyon Road and the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center warehouse facilities and trailer parking lot. Overall, the FCSP discussion regarding potential construction -related energy impacts is also applicable to the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Project. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new impacts or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts compared to the Approved Project.
Operation
Table 5.6-6, Pacfic Oaks Commerce Center Operation -Related Fuel Usage, of the Draft SEIR shows the transportation energy use associated with operation of Pacific Oaks Commerce Center warehouse facilities and trailer parking lot. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project is within the overall FCSP and accounted for in Table 5.6-4. Thus, the FCSP discussion regarding potential operation -related energy impacts is also applicable to the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Project. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new impacts or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from energy use to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact on energy resources. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

Impact 5.6-2: The Proposed Project would not conflict with or obstruct implementation of plans for renewable energy or energy efficiency. [Threshold E-2] Plans for Renewable Energy
FCSP Buildout
California Renewables Portfolio Standard (RPS) Program
The state's electricity grid is transitioning to renewable energy, such as wind, solar, geothermal, etc., under California's RPS Program. In general, California has RPS requirements of 33 percent renewable energy by 2020 (SB X1-2), 44 percent by 2024, 50 percent by 2026, 52 percent by 2027, 60 percent by 2030, 90 percent by 2035, 95 percent by 2040, and 100 percent by 2045. The statewide RPS requirements do not directly apply to individual development projects, but to utilities and energy providers such as Southern California Edison (SCE), whose compliance with RPS requirements would contribute to the state objective of transitioning to renewable energy. Similar to the Approved Project, the land uses accommodated by the Proposed Project would comply with the current and future iterations of the Building Energy Efficiency Standards, which have requirements for installation of photovoltaic systems and battery storage for residential and non-residential land use types. Therefore, implementation of the Proposed Project would not conflict or obstruct implementation of California's RPS Program and would not result in new or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts compared to the Approved Project.
City of Yucaipa Climate Action Plan (CAP)
The City's CAP includes State and local energy -related measures. As discussed above for the Scoping Plan, the energy -related measures at the State level (e.g., Measure State-2: Title 24 Standards for Non - Residential and Residential Buildings) would provide downstream benefits at the local level. The local CAP energy -related measures primarily cover solar installation for existing residential and commercial uses and would generally not be applicable to the Proposed Project. While not directly energy -related, the Proposed Project would utilize recycled water for its landscaping and general outdoor water needs, which would be consistent with the Wastewater-3: Recycled Water local CAP measure. Use of recycled water would contribute to reducing electricity consumption associated with the transport of water.
Additionally, and overall, as discussed in Impact 5.6-1, the Proposed Project would result in a net decrease in energy demand compared to the Approved Project. This net decrease in energy demand would generally be consistent with the CAP goal of reducing energy demand to reduce energy -sector emissions (see Table 5.8-4 in Chapter 5.8, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, of this Draft SEIR). Therefore, implementation of the Proposed Project would not conflict or obstruct implementation of the City of Yucaipa CAP and would not result in new or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts compared to the Approved Project.

would each install a photovoltaic system that would generate 150,000 kWh of renewable electricity per year per system. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not conflict or obstruct implementation of California's RPS program and would not result in new or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts compared to the Approved Project.
City of Yucaipa Climate Action Plan
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project is encompassed within and part of the FCSP. Thus, the FCSP discussion regarding consistency with the City of Yucaipa CAP is also applicable to the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Project. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not conflict or obstruct implementation of the City's CAP and would not result in new or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from energy to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact on consistency with the RPS and Yucaipa Climate Action Plan. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
7. Geology and Soils
Specific Plan PPPs
The following are plans, programs, and policies (PPPs) that would reduce the Proposed Project's potential geology and soils impacts:
The Specific Plan includes a variety of provisions, including Section 3.6 and Section 4.8, of the Specific Plan, which describe the required use of contour grading with undulating slopes and native plantings to provide for a transition between open space and future development that is intended to ensure that site grading efforts maintain a more naturalistic appearance.

Earthquakes and Ground -Rupture
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project site is not located within an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone or a designated fault zone. As indicated in the geotechnical report prepared for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project, the possibility of significant fault rupture on the site is considered to be low. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would be required to adhere to the latest version of the California Building Code (CBC) which provides procedures for earthquake resistant structural design. The Community Development Department would verify that the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project will adhere to the recommendations of the geotechnical report. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard, when compared to the impacts in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Landslides and Liquefaction
According to the geotechnical report, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project is not located within an area of liquefaction, and based on historic high groundwater research, which is considered to exist in a depth in excess of 50 feet, liquefaction is not considered to be a design concern for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center site. Evidence of large-scale landslides or slope instability at the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center site was not observed; however, some of the slopes descending from the terraced older alluvium to the drainages below are relatively steep and it is expected that some near -surface slide material is likely present within some of these slope areas. The San Bernardino County Geologic Hazard Map indicates a low to moderate landslide susceptibility. The Community Development Department would verify that the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project will adhere to the recommendations of the geotechnical report. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard, when compared to the impacts in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to seismic -related hazards. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Project
In accordance with Mitigation Measure GS-1 and GS-2, site specific geotechnical (see Appendix H of the Draft SEIR) and hydrology studies (see Appendix L of the Draft SEIR) have been performed for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project.
Soil Erosion
According to the geotechnical report, artificial fill consisting of loose/medium stiff clayey fine to medium sand to fine to medium sandy clay, younger alluvium consisting of loose to medium dense silty fine sand and silty fine to coarse sand, older alluvium consisting primarily of loose to dense silty fine to medium sand and silty fine to coarse sand, and San Timoteo Formation bedrock consisting primarily of dense to very dense fine- to coarse -grained sandstone with variable silt content were encountered on the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center site. Implementation of the CBC, as well as best management practices in the hydrology report would ensure that erosion would be minimized. The Community Development Department would verify that the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project will adhere to the recommendations of the hydrology report.
According to the geotechnical report, preliminary site grading recommendations include remedial grading within the proposed building areas in order to remove all undocumented fill soils, which would generally be at a depth of approximately 10 feet. Soils classified as younger alluvium are expected to require overexcavation to a depth of at least 10 feet below the existing grade. The geotechnical report indicated that recommendations should be confirmed as part of the design -level geotechnical im-estigation. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant and the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard than were analyzed in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Expansive Soils
The geotechnical report indicated that the expansion potential of soils in the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project site ranged from non -expansive to medium expansion. However, mass grading of the site is expected to blend onsite soils, resulting in a very low to low expansive potential. The geotechnical report indicates that additional expansion testing should be performed at the time of the design -level geotechnical investigation. The Community Development Department would verify that the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project will adhere to the recommendations of the geotechnical report.
Therefore, impacts would be less than significant and the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard than were analyzed in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Lateral Spreadin_g
According to the geotechnical report, the static groundwater table is considered to exist at a depth greater than 50 feet below existing grades. As the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center site is not mapped within an area susceptible to liquefaction, impacts would be less than significant. The Community Development Department would verify that the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project will adhere to the recommendations of the geotechnical report. As such, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project
CEQA Findings of Fact and
Statement of Overriding Considerations - 35 -
01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 152
would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard than were analyzed in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Subsidence
According to the geotechnical report, removal and recompaction of the near -surface fill and alluvial soils is estimated to result in an average shrinkage of 5 to 15 percent. The groundwater table is considered to exist at a depth greater than 50 feet, and sustainable groundwater management practices by local water companies reduce the potential for future land subsidence. The geotechnical report indicates that no significant subsidence is expected to occur in excavations that are underlain by bedrock. The Community Development Department would verify that the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project will adhere to the recommendations of the geotechnical report. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant and the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard than were analyzed in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to soils -related hazards. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.7-3: Soil conditions may not adequately support proposed septic tanks. [Threshold G-5]

8. Hazards and Hazardous Materials
Specific Plan PPPs
The following are plans, programs, and policies (PPPs) that would reduce the Proposed Project's potential hazards and hazardous materials impacts:
Development Standards
Development is required to adhere to the requirements identified in the Specific Plan.
Fire Protection Plan
Development within the FCSP is required to adhere to the requirements identified in the FCSP Fire Protection Plan (see Appendix S of the Draft SEIR).
Section 2.2. 5 Fire Protection Features' Beneficial Effect on Wildfire Ignition Risk Reduction
1. Ignition Resistant, Planning, and Maintained Landscape. Landscaping within the plan area, including common areas and Fuel Modification Zones (FMZ), would be subject to strict plant types that are lower ignition plants. Landscaping close to structures will require irrigation to maintain high plant moistures.
2. Fuel Modification Zones. All development within the plan area will provide an FMZ, which would be 100 feet and includes specifically selected plant species, very low fuel densities (only 30 percent retention of native plants in outer zones and irrigated inner zones), and ongoing maintenance, resulting in a wide buffer between the developed areas and the off -site native fuels.
3. Annual FMZ Inspections. All developments within the Specific Plan area, each developer would have a contracted, 3rd party, Yucaipa Fire Department —approved FMZ inspector perform two inspections per year to ensure that FMZs are maintained in a condition that is consistent with the City's and Fire Protection Plan requirements and would provide a benefit of a wide barrier separating wildland fuels from on -site ignitions.
4. Ignition Resistant Structures. Structures within the plan area would be built to the CBC Chapter 7A ignition resistant requirements that have been developed and codified after fire save and loss assessments. These measures would result in structures that are designed, built, and maintained to withstand fire and embers associated with wildfires.
5. Interior Fire Sprinklers. Developments within the plan area would include interior fire sprinklers, which are designed to provide additional time for occupants to escape the structures. Sprinklers are also designed to provide structural protection.
6. Fire Access Roads. All roads within the plan area would provide code -consistent access throughout each development, including at least two points of ingress/egress.

7. Water. Future development within the plan area will provide water for firefighting throughout the project site, including fire hydrants accessible by fire engines, which is a critical component of suppressing both structural and vegetation fires. All development in the plan area will provide firefighting water volume, availability, and sustained pressures to the satisfaction of Yucaipa Fire Department.
Section 5.4 Defensible Space and Vegetation Management
This section of the Fire Protection Plan includes defensible space and FMZ requirements. An FMZ is a strip of land where combustible vegetation has been removed and/or modified and partially or completely replaced with more adequately spaced, drought -tolerant, fire-resistant plants to give structures a reasonable level of protection from wildland fire. The FMZ would include a minimum 5- foot-wide noncombustible Zone A, a 45-foot-wide irrigated Zone B, and a 50-foot-wide thinning Zone C. In areas that would be unable to achieve 100 feet of FMZ, the incorporation of enhanced construction features, such as a 6-foot heat deflecting wall constructed of concrete masonry units between on -site structures and unmaintained open space would be used to provide a functional equivalency for a full FMZ. FMZs would be maintained on at least an annual basis or more often as needed to maintain the fuel modification buffer function. An on -site inspection will be conducted by the Yucaipa Fire Department upon completion of landscape installation before a certificate of occupancy being granted by the City's building code official.
Additionally, a fire access road zone would provide 10 feet of horizontal clearance on each side and 20 feet of vertical clearance along all fire access roads. This zone would also require an unobstructed vertical clearance of 20 feet, appropriate placing of landscaping and native plants, lower flammability trees, and maintenance of landscaping and other features.
Prior to the start of construction, perimeter fuel modification areas would be implemented and approved by the Yucaipa Fire Department from combustible materials that are brought on -site. This includes removing 50 percent of the existing flammable vegetation and removing dead fuel, ladder fuel, and downed fuel.
Appendix D of the Fire Protection Plan contains a list of undesirable plants that have highly flammable characteristics. These characteristics can be physical (structure promotes ignition or combustible) or chemical (volatile chemicals increase flammability or combustion characteristics). These plants could not be planted or allowed to establish opportunistically within the FMZs or landscape areas.

Commercial and industrial buildings in excess of 20,000 square feet and with an interior area more than 150 feet from exterior exit, shall be equipped with a Class I standpipe system or as needed to meet California Fire Code Section 905. Standpipe connections shall be configured to reach any portion of interior space within 150 feet in any direction of travel. This system shall be calculated to provide 500 gpm from an adjacent automatic fire sprinkler riser at 100 psi nozzle pressure for two hand lines flowing.
To ensure that the construction of the proposed structures does not impact the Yucaipa Fire Department's Insurance Services Office (ISO) rating, applicant shall pay to the City approximately half of the cost of a ladder truck fire apparatus (with associated equipment) in the amount of $490,000 to be used by the City to assist with the purchase of the ladder truck.
Impact 5.9-1: Project construction and/or operations would involve the transport, use, and/or disposal of hazardous materials but would comply with existing regulations to minimize risk. [Thresholds H-1, H-2, and H-3] Transport, Use, and Disposal of Hazardous Materials
FCSP Buildout
In comparison to the land uses for the plan area designated in the 2008 Certified EIR, the Proposed Project would designate 47.5 acres for agro-commercial tourism. Similar to the 2008 Certified EIR, the residential regional commercial and business park uses, the residential areas, and the regional commercial and business part. arcas of the Proposed Project would result in the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials. The agro-commercial tourism portion of the Proposed Project is not introducing new areas of agriculture because this area is already being used that way. The nearest school to the plan area is the Mesa View Middle School approximately 0.27-mile south of the plan area in the City of Calimesa, and therefore, would not handle hazardous materials within a quarter mile of a school site. Hazardous materials use in the plan area was anticipated and addressed in the 2008 Certified EIR. Overall, existing regulations with respect to hazardous materials transportation, management, and disposal are designed to be protective of human health. The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, Emergency Planning and Community Right -to -Know Act, and state regulations all minimize potential hazardous material impacts. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would result in the same impacts to hazards and hazardous materials as identified for the Specific Plan. As identified above, the nearest school to the plan area is the Mesa View Middle School approximately 0.27-mile south of the plan area in the City of Calimesa, and therefore, would not handle hazardous materials within a quarter mile of a school site. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.

Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from hazards and hazardous materials to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact from transport, use, and disposal of hazardous materials. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.6-2: The plan area is not on a list of hazardous materials sites. [Threshold H-4] Hazardous Materials Sites
FCSP Buildout
According to a review of online databases that identify hazardous materials sites (EnviroMapper, GeoTracker, and EnviroStor), there are no hazardous materials cleanup sites or hazardous waste facility sites on or immediately adjacent to the plan area. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard, when compared to the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center site, like the plan area, does not contain any hazardous materials cleanup sites or hazardous waste facility sites. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would result in the same impacts to hazards and hazardous materials as identified for the Specific Plan. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from hazards and hazardous materials to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact associated with hazardous materials sites.
Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.6-3: The project site is not located in the vicinity of an airport or within the jurisdiction of an airport land use plan. [Threshold H-5] Airport Hazards
FCSP Buildout
The closest airport to the project site is the Redlands Municipal Airport, 5.3 miles northwest of the plan area. The plan area does not lie within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, or within an airport land use plan. Additionally, the Proposed Project would not construct new development that would interfere with airport operations. There has been no change in conditions since the 2008 Certified EIR. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts related to airports when compared to the Approved Project.

Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from hazards and hazardous materials to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact associated with airport hazards. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.6-4: Project development would not affect the implementation of an emergency responder or evacuation plan. [Threshold H-6]
Emergency Responder/Evacuation Plans
FCSP Buildout
The City of Yucaipa Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) provides guidance and procedures for the City to prepare for and respond to extraordinary emergency situations requiring coordinated response.
Development of the plan area in accordance with the Proposed Project would include construction that may temporarilN, impact traffic in the plan area. Temporary traffic diversion, truck haul routes, and impacts to the roadway would be coordinated with the City and applicable emergency response agencies to ensure adequate access during any construction activities. The City's Building and Safety Department, along with the Yucaipa Fire Department/Fire Marshall and Sheriffs Department, would review building plans during plan check to ensure that adequate site access is maintained and that roadway improvements and project driveways would not interfere with circulation on adjacent streets.
The Proposed Project would include the various features to ensure fire access and evacuation on the plan area roadways, such as ensuring compliance with access road standards, internal roadways to be a minimum of 20 feet wide, fire apparatus access road gradients do not exceed 12 percent, streets meet fire code requirements, adequate vertical clearance of vegetation, cul-de-sacs and fire apparatus turnarounds will meet requirements and Yucaipa Fire Department standards, traffic lights are compatible with devices on fire apparatus (traffic pre-emption devices), roadways/driveways provide fire department access within 150 feet of all portions of the exterior wall, roadway design features do not interfere with emergency apparatus, and access roads are suable by a fire apparatus prior to lumber drop onsite.
However, as discussed in Chapter 5.14, Populations and Housing, of this Draft SEIR, the Proposed Project would increase the residential units and total residents by 25 dwelling units and 69 residents, respectively, compared to the Approved Project. Additionally, the Proposed Project would decrease the number of jobs by 317 jobs compared to the Approved Project, and the employment centers would include more logistics and warehousing than the Approved Project, which would reduce the number Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project
CEQA Findings of Fact and

01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 162
of visitors to the plan area due to fewer retail and commercial uses. This change to the number of residents and jobs would reduce daily weekday trips under the Proposed Project by 81,073 trips when compared to the Approved Project, as discussed in Chapter 5.17, Transportation, of this Draft SEIR.
Therefore, if the entire plan area were to evacuate at the same time, the number of vehicles needing to evacuate would be reduced under the Proposed Project.
Effective emergency response depends on the Fire Department response times throughout the plan area. As discussed in Chapter 5.15, Public Services, and the Fire Protection Plan, Yucaipa Fire Station 3 would provide initial response to the plan area with an average response time of 8 minutes and 36 seconds. Although this response time is beyond the five-minute response standard, given the Project's fire safety features and the flexibility allowed by the response time 90 percent achievement rate, the response time is considered to substantially conform with the Fire Department's internal standards, subject to Fire Department review. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not impair the EOP more substantially than the Approved Project.
Additionally, like the Approved Project, including the approved Conditions of Approval, the Proposed Project would include fire safety features that would ensure adequate emergency fire access and resident or employee evacuation. These include ignition -resistant landscaping, fuel modification zones around roads and buildings, code -compliant access roads, and adequate water for fire suppression, which would assist the Yucaipa Fire Department and other emergency response agencies in responding to emergencies within the plan area. Additionally, the Proposed Project would be required to comply with the State and local regulations and requirements to ensure adequate road widths and clearances for emergency vehicles and access. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not substantially impair implementation of the EOP or Evacuation Routes when compared to the Approved Project.
Emergency response and evacuation could be hindered by construction activities. However, all construction staging would be within the plan area and would not block access to and from the plan area. The construction would be phased over 15 to 20 years and would have similar construction activities to that of the Approved Project. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not impede emergency access to or evacuation from the surrounding community compared to the Approved Project.
The Proposed Project would not result in new impacts or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts to adopted emergency response and evacuation plans compared to the Approved Project. Impacts would be less than significant.

Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from hazards and hazardous materials to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact associated with interfering with emergency response and evacuation plans. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.9-5: The project site is in a designated very high fire hazard severity zone and could expose structures and/or residences to fire danger. [Threshold H-7] Fire Hazard Zones
FCSP Buildout
The Proposed Project would result in an increase of 25 dwelling units and 69 people, a reduction of approximately 2.28 million square feet of Regional Commercial (RC), an increase of approximately
2.79 million square feet of Business Park (BP), and a reduction of 317 employees in comparison to the Approved Project.
The Approved Project contains several Conditions of Approval to reduce exposure to wildfire or pollutants from wildfire. Several of these conditions are now requirements in the California Building Code, California Fire Code, Fire Safe Regulations, and/or the Yucaipa Municipal Code. The Conditions of ;kpproval include a 100-foot fuel break prior construction and maintained year-round; fire hydrants installed and operational prior to framing, construction or delivery of combustible materials to a project site; ensuring water storage and delivery during construction prior to framing, construction, or delivery of combustible materials to a project site; compliance with all applicable fire codes/statutes/policies; fire department access roads and/or public and private streets shall meet the Fire Department minimum width standard of 24 feet, or 26 feet in the FR-1 Zone; cul-de-sac and dead-end streets shall not exceed 350 feet in FR-1 areas; installation of fire hydrants; a greenbelt or fuel modification zone plan; and so on.
The Proposed Project would include similar vegetation management, water, street design, and fuel break features throughout the plan area. Additionally, the California Building Code, California Fire Code, and Fire Safe Regulations have been updated since the certification of the 2008 EIR, and therefore the Proposed Project would be required to go beyond the requirements of the Approved Project for vegetation and fuel management in the plan area to reduce wildfire impacts. Furthermore, the Proposed Project would go beyond the code requirements to include a fuel management zone (FMZ) with an added noncombustible zone, advanced protection measures where a 100-foot FMZ is not possible, FMZ inspections, and a Homeowners Association education and outreach program.
A Fire Protection Plan (FPP) has been prepared for the Proposed Project (see Appendix S of the Draft SEIR), and development would comply with this plan. The FPP also describes applicable State of California, County of San Bernardino, and the City of Yucaipa building code and fire Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

prevention/protection measures. With implementation of the FPP and applicable regulatory requirements, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts related to wildfire impacts than land development for the plan area as permitted under the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would result in the same impacts fire hazards as identified for the Specific Plan. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from hazards and hazardous materials to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact associated with fire hazard zones. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
9. Hydrology and Water Quality
Specific Plan PPPs
There are no specific FCSP development standards or design guidelines pertaining to hydrology and water quality. The FCSP development standards and design guidelines for hydrology and water quality will defer to the existing policies the City has in place.
Impact 5.10-1: For Impact 5.10-1, refer to Section C, Findings on Significant Environmental Impacts that can be Reduced to a Less than Signi&cant Level.
Impact 5.10-2: The Proposed Project would not substantially decrease groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that the Proposed Project could impede sustainable groundwater management of the basin. [Threshold HYD-2]
Groundwater Supplies/Recharge
FCSP Buildout
Yucaipa Valley Water District (YVWD) supplies potable water to the City from groundwater resources, imported water resources, and local surface water resources. All outdoor water demand for the Proposed Project would be recycled water. The YVWD currently extracts groundwater from three basins: the Yucaipa Basin, the Beaumont Adjudicated Basin, and the Bunker Hill Subbasin. Future groundwater demands would be supplied by an additional fourth groundwater basin, the San Timoteo Basin.

CEQA Findings of Fact and
Statement of Overriding Considerations - 48 -
01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 165
The observed storage increase over the last 10 years in the Yucaipa basin indicates that the Yucaipa Groundwater Sustainability Agency (GSA) member agencies have been managing the groundwater resource sustainably. The Yucaipa GSA adopted a Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP) for the Yucaipa Basin in January of 2022 to manage groundwater resources for sustainable, long-term use of the Yucaipa Basin. Additionally, the adjudication of the Beaumont Basin defines overlying and appropriated pumping rights and ensures sustainable management of the basin. The Bunker Hill Basin is a subbasin of the San Bernardino Basin, which is categorized by the Department of Water Resources (DWR) as a very low priority basin and is an adjudicated basin. The San Bernardino Basin is managed by the San Bernardino Basin Groundwater Council, which was formed in 2018. The San Timoteo Basin is also a low priority basin. The San Timoteo GSA manages part of the unadjudicated portion of the San Timoteo Basin and coordinates activities to carry out the purposes of the memorandum of agreement in implementing the policy, purposes, and requirements of Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SWMA) within the boundaries of the San Timoteo Basin.
Additionally, the Proposed Project would not involve direct withdrawals from the groundwater basin and would not be in areas that are actively used for groundwater recharge. Development projects within the FCSP would be required to infiltrate, where feasible, to recharge groundwater and meet water quality standards. To protect the groundwater basin, infiltration may not be allowable in areas with a history of contamination or within 100 feet of potable wells, nonpotable wells, drain fields, and springs.
YVWD also imposes specific conditions on new development through the parcel development process and requires that applicants for a new development project fund the purchase of seven acre-feet of imported supplemental water per equivalent dwelling unit prior to issuance of grading or building permits. "Therefore, the Proposed Project would not substantially decrease groundwater supplies or interfere with groundwater recharge, and impacts would be less than significant. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard compared to the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center is within the FCSP and would be served by the same groundwater source as the rest of the proposed development within the plan area, would not involve direct withdrawal of groundwater, and would not be in an area that is actively used for groundwater recharge.
Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact associated with groundwater supply and recharge. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

Impact 5.10-4: The Proposed Project would not substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site in a manner which would impede or redirect flood flows, and would not risk release of pollutants due to project inundation in flood hazard, tsunami, or seiche zones. [Threshold FIYD-3 (iv) and FIYD-4] Flood Hazards and Release of Pollutants due to Inundation FCSP Buildout
Most of the areas within Flood Zone A, in the plan area, are zoned as open space and agricultural areas by the Proposed Project. However, portions of planning areas PA-8, PA-11, C-5, C-6, BP-4, and BP- 5 are within Zones AE and AO regulatory floodways. Although development in the 100-year flood hazard zone is not anticipated, any such development would require submittal of a letter of map revision application to Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for review and approval.
New development would be required to meet federal floodplain regulations, including that the lowest floor of the structure is raised above the 100-year base flood elevation. Development would also comply with County and local approval agency regulations on floodplain and floodway management, which includes conformance with FEMA regulations for Special Flood Hazard Areas. Wildwood Creek and Yucaipa Creek (Zone A) are the primary floodways in the plan area and would be largely protected through buffers where no construction would occur, and where appropriate, detention basins would be integrated to manage flood flows and overflow areas while protecting development farther from the creek. Furthermore, the City has Developmental Standards that ensure floodplain regulations are taken to provide safety, promote public health, and minimize public and private economic losses in flood prone areas.
The plan area is not in the inundation zone of any dams, and no surface water bodies pose a flood hazard to the plan area due to a seiche. The plan area is also not at risk of flooding from tsunami.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project is in Zone D, with a portion outside the 500-year floodplain and a portion within an area of undetermined flood hazard. The development would be required to meet federal floodplain regulations and local approval agency regulations on floodplain and floodway management. Furthermore, the City's development standards would ensure floodplain regulations are followed to provide safety, promote public health, and minimize public and private economic losses within flood -prone areas.
The plan area is not within the inundation zone of any dams, and no surface water bodies pose a flood hazard to the plan area due to a seiche. The plan area is also not at risk of flooding from tsunami.
Therefore, impacts would be less than significant. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard compared to the Approved Project.
Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

Finding. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact associated with flood hazards and release of pollutants due to inundation. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.10-5: The Proposed Project would not conflict with or obstruct implementation of a water quality control plan or sustainable groundwater management plan. [Threshold HYD-5].
Conflicting with the Implementation of a Water Quality Plan FCSP Buildout
The proposed new residential and nonresidential uses would adhere to the state Construction General Permit (CGP), implement Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs), and adhere to the City's requirements, as described in detail in Impact 5.10-1 of the Draft SEIR. This would ensure that surface and groundwater quality are not adversely impacted during construction. In addition, development of the Proposed Project would comply with the San Bernardino County Technical Guidance Document (TGD) and the municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4) requirements. As a result, the FCSP would not obstruct or conflict with the implementation of the Basin Plan.
The plan area would be connected to YVWD's public water supply, and groundwater withdrawals from the Yucaipa groundwater basin are subject to requirements in the GSP. The San Timoteo GSA manages part of the unadjudicated portion of the San Timoteo Basin and coordinates activities to carry out the policy, purposes, and requirements of SGMA in the San Timoteo basin. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant, and the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project is within the overall plan area for the FCSP and affects the same surface and groundwater resources. Future development would comply with the same requirements as other development within the plan area. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact associated with conflicting with a water quality plan. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
10. Land Use and Planning

Development Standards
The Specific Plan regulates the planning and development of properties in the plan area under Chapter 4, Development Standards. The development standards for land uses in the Specific Plan include general provisions; permitted land uses; development standards; landscape standards; sign regulations; common open space, parks, trails, and hillside preservation; and infrastructure for residential and nonresidential uses.
Design Guidelines
The Specific Plan includes design guidelines in Chapter 5, Design Guidelines, for site planning, landscaping, building design, and site design standards for proposed residential and nonresidential uses to maintain the rural character of Yucaipa.
Impact 5.11-1: Project implementation would not divide an established community. [Threshold LU-1]
Dividing and Established Community
FCSP Buildout
Division of an established community commonly occurs because of construction and development of physical features that constitute a barrier to easy and frequent travel between two or more constituent parts of a community. For example, a large freeway structure with few crossings could effectively split a community. The plan area currently consists of primarily agricultural land, a limited number of residences, a wastewater treatment plant, and miscellaneous commercial uses. The closest established residential communities to the plan area are the residential communities to the north, northeast, northwest, and southeast of the plan area in the cities of Yucaipa, Redlands, and Calimesa.
Chapter 4 of the FCSP, Development Standards, requires that uses in the Business Park designation be sited per the setback standards shown in Table 4-4 of the FCSP, Nonresidential Development Standards, which are a minimum of 15 feet for the front and streetside setbacks, and a minimum of 10 feet for the side and rear setbacks. Additionally, the landscaping standards state that landscaping must be used to provide screening for unattractive and/or unsightly service areas and serve as a buffer between neighboring uses. Chapter 5 of the FCSP, Design Guidelines, states that where commercial uses are adjacent to noncommercial uses, appropriate buffering techniques should be provided to mitigate any negative effects of the commercial operations, and that noise -generating uses should be located away from adjacent residential uses.
Section 3.5 of the FCSP, Circulation Plan, states that routes and access locations would be designed to minimize traffic impacts to surrounding areas, and FCSP Figure 3-8, Conceptual Circulation Plan, shows the commercial and residential collector streets in the FCSP. Truck traffic on the western side of the plan area, south of I-10 in planning areas BP 1, BP 2, BP 3, and BP 5, would primarily access I- 10 via Live Oak Canyon Road/Oak Glen Road until the Wildwood Canyon Interchange project is constructed, when both regional access points would be available (see Appendix P, Traffic Impact Assessment, of the Draft SEIR, Figures 6 and 11). The access point to I-10 at Outer Highway 10 in Redlands would not be the primary truck route for project -related traffic. Truck traffic in planning area Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

BP 6 would access I-10 via Countyline Road, which is in the City of Calimesa. Truck traffic would not utilize other local roadways because local roads do not provide direct regional access. Truck traffic would not divide an established community.
Proposed development in the plan area would be required to comply with the development standards and design guidelines of the FCSP, and residential and nonresidential uses within and surrounding the plan area would be separated by open space, roadways, and appropriate buffering techniques. Future development would be within the boundaries of the plan area, and the circulation pattern is generally similar to the Approved Project; therefore, the Proposed Project would have similar impacts as the Approved Project. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard, when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.

The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project site is surrounded by open space and separated by a future commercial collector road. Development under the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would be required to comply with the development standards and design guidelines of the FCSP. As with the 2008 Certified EIR, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not divide an established community in the plan area, and development consistent with the FCSP would not result in the division of an established community. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from land use and planning to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact from the potential to divide an established community. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

City of Yucaipa General Plan Consistency
The 2008 Certified EIR identified that the Approved Project would be inconsistent with the City of Yucaipa General Plan Goals for agricultural resources, noise, and natural resources. No mitigation was available to reduce these inconsistencies, and impacts were identified as significant and unavoidable in the 2008 Certified EIR. Since the EIR was certified, the City has updated its General Plan (2016), which now includes the land uses in the Approved Project. As a result, the Approved Project and Proposed Project would be consistent with the land uses in the 2016 General Plan and its policies pertaining to land use and planning for residential and nonresidential uses.

Agricultural Resources
The 2008 Certified EIR identified that the Approved Project was inconsistent with the General Plan policies on agriculture preservation because the Approved Project would convert a total of 129.07 acres of Important Farmland to nonagricultural use. The City's General Plan (updated in 2016) no longer identifies the plan area for agricultural use. Furthermore, the Proposed Project preserves the Live Oak Pumpkin Patch and Christmas Tree Farm and allows continued agricultural use in the areas designated Open Space. Unlike with the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would be consistent with the policies in the General Plan regarding agriculture, and the Proposed Project would not result in a substantial increase in severity of impacts or new impacts related to agricultural preservation policies in the General Plan. Impacts would be less than significant.
Noise
The 2008 Certified EIR identified that the Approved Project was inconsistent with the General Plan because the Approved Project would result in a substantial increase in the ambient noise environment.
Section 5.13, Noise, of the Draft SEIR, identifies noise impacts of the Proposed Project compared to the Approved Project. Like the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would result in an increase in ambient noise levels in the plan area. However, the growth associated with the Approved Project and Proposed Project is planned for in the 2016 General Plan, and policies regarding noise would be applicable to the future land uses in the plan area. As a result, the Proposed Project would not result in a substantial increase in severity of impacts or new impacts related to noise policies in the General Plan, and impacts would be less than significant.
Natural Resources
The 2008 Certified EIR identified that there would be significant impacts to air quality and biological resources that could result in potential conflicts with the City's policies on natural resources. Since the 2008 EIR was certified, the City has updated the General Plan and has integrated the Approved Project into the General Plan's land use plan. In the 2016 General Plan, Policy CDL-7.7 calls for comprehensive planning to maintain the rural community character of Yucaipa. The FCSP's vision is to recognize and retain the rural character of Yucaipa through the preservation of existing scenic views, hilltop ridgelines, and natural habitat. Chapter 5 of the FCSP Update, Design Guidelines, includes guidelines for architecture and site design that reflect the scale and design of rural towns.
Policy CDL-10.4 encourages identifiable architectural designs, design variations, and well -planned projects that are visually interested and well -integrated with the surrounding uses, and Policy CDL-
11.3 strives to ensure appropriate transitions in scale, density, and intensity between residential and nonresidential uses. Chapter 4, Development Standards, and Chapter 5 of the FCSP provide standards and guidelines for development and design in the plan area. Though the 2008 Certified EIR found impacts to General Plan consistency to be significant and unavoidable, the Approved Project and Proposed Project are consistent with the City's updated policies on natural resources. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in a substantial increase in severity of impacts or new impacts related to natural resources policies in the General Plan compared to the Approved Project, and impacts would be less than significant.

Hillside Gradin
As identified in the 2016 General Plan, the Approved Project does not include protections for key ridgelines identified in Figure CDL-4 of the General Plan, Hillside Overlay District. Policy CDL-2.3 and Policy CDL-2.7 call for concentrating hillside development in areas with the least environmental impacts and promoting land use patterns that are consistent with the slopes, landform, vegetation, and scenic quality of hillsides.
For this SEIR, the Approved Project represents the CEQA baseline. As a result, the impact analysis does not compare the Proposed Project to existing conditions but to the built -out Approved Project (i.e., the developed condition). The elevation change over the entire plan area is approximately 450 feet. Approximately 19 percent of the plan area has slopes over 40 percent (steep terrain). Development on slopes that are 15 percent and above is subject to Hillside Development Review. Grading applied to the plan area achieves a 2:1 ratio (height over distance), which would increase with the slope. The objectives of the FCSP include complying with applicable development standards to preserve key ridgelines and regulating hillside and ridgeline development to maintain a rural atmosphere consistent with the City's identity. The FCSP is designed to vary the slope ratio from 2:1 to 5:1 (horizontal to vertical). Where proposed grades meet existing topography, the grades would be rounded to blend and provide a natural effect. The Grading Plan is based on the several main principles, such as preserving land designated as Open Space which includes the major significant ridgelines in the plan area, situating the finished elevation of building pads so they complement the character of adjacent natural topography, designing new roads to follow the existing topography to minimize grading, contour grading all new roads to minimize grading, and performing grading techniques consistent with the required grading permits and gcotechnical reports.
Even though the development code generally prohibits development on slopes of 41 percent or greater, this is primarily meant to concentrate or intensify development on less environmentally sensitive terrain, not to prohibit development or reduce permitted density. Enforcement of ridgeline preservation is based on the significance of individual projects at the discretion of the Planning Commission.
The grading plan of the FCSP situates building pads so that they complement the character of the adjacent natural topography and designs new roads to follow the existing topography to minimize grading. The Approved Project designated the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project area as residential uses, which would have been contoured around the ridgelines; the Proposed Project would construct business park uses in this area, resulting in the need to create flat pads. As a result, the Proposed Project requires more landform modification than the Approved Project. The FCSP Update would conform to standards that would preserve key ridgelines and viewsheds.
As with the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would result in substantial changes in the visual character of the plan area. Because the Proposed Project would preserve key ridgelines, the Proposed Project would not conflict with goals or policies on hillside preservation. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard, when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR. Therefore, impacts of the Proposed Project are less than significant.

SCAG Connect SoCal Consistency
As identified above, the 2008 Certified EIR identified that the Approved Project would be inconsistent with Southern California Association of Government (SCAG)'s Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RtP/SCS) as a result of loss of agricultural resources. No mitigation was available to reduce this inconsistency, and impacts were identified as significant and unavoidable. Since the 2008 EIR was certified, SCAG has adopted a new RTP/SCS. In addition, agricultural uses in the plan area have changed (see Section 5.2, Agricultural and Forestry Resources, of the Draft SEIR).
As described in Table 5.11-1, 2020-2045 RTP/SCS Consistency Analysis, of the Draft SEIR, the Proposed Project is generally consistent with the overarching goals of the RTP/SCS. Unlike the Approved Project, the Proposed Project preserves the Live Oak Pumpkin Patch and Christmas Tree Farm and allows continued agricultural use in the areas designated Open Space. Therefore, implementation of the Proposed Project would not result in significant land use impacts related to relevant RTP/SCS goals. Though the 2008 Certified EIR found that impacts of the Approved Project to RTP/SCS consistency were significant and unavoidable, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard. Therefore, impacts of the Proposed Project are less than significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would result in the same impacts to land use and planning as identified for the Specific Plan. Specifically, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would result in preservation of key ridgelines. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from land use and planning to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact associated with consistency with plans adopted to avoid or mitigate environmental effects. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
11. Mineral Resources

As with the 2008 Certified EIR, impacts would be less than significant. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The City of Yucaipa, including the project area, is in MRZ-3, where the significance of mineral deposits cannot be determined from the available data. No areas in the city, including the project area, are in MRZ-2, where information indicates that significant mineral deposits are present or likely and development should be controlled. Therefore, impacts to mineral resources would be less than significant.
Finding. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact associated with impacting mineral resources. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
12. Noise
Specific Plan PPPs
The following are plans, programs, and policies (PPPs) that would reduce the Proposed Project's potential noise and vibration impacts:
Design Guidelines
Chapter 5, Design Guidelines, of the Specific Plan includes the following requirement for noise:
Where commercial uses are adjacent to noncommercial uses, appropriate buffering techniques, such as increased minimum setbacks, screening, and landscaping, should be provided to mitigate any negative effects of the commercial operations. Any noise -generating uses should be located away from adjacent residential uses.
Plazas and open spaces should be sheltered, as much as possible, from noise -generating nuisances, trash enclosures, parking areas, and other incompatible uses.
Conditions of Approval
The following conditions of approval (COA) related to noise have been identified by the City for subdivisions and/or conditional use permits:
Subdivision 100, CUP 67. An acoustical study shall be performed to assess noise levels at the development and shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Division. Detailed noise analysis and precise mitigation measures shall be submitted to the Planning Division for review and approval. In the event redesign is required, a revised map shall be submitted.

Impact 5.13-1: Construction activities associated with the Proposed Project would result in temporary noise increases in the vicinity of the plan area. [Threshold N-1] Construction Noise
FCSP Buildout
Construction activities associated with the Proposed Project would temporarily increase the ambient noise environment. The municipal code exempts temporary construction, repair, and demolition activities from the noise level limits, providing the activity occurs between 7:00 am and 7:00 pm on Monday through Saturday. Construction activities associated with the Proposed Project would be similar to those of the Approved Project. Therefore, as with the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would also result in less than significant impacts. The Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard compared to the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
This section analyzes potential impacts resulting from the short-term construction activities associated with the development of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center.
Daytime Construction
Table 5.13-8, Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Constmelion Noise Levels Pacific Oaks Commerce Center, of the Draft SEIR, presents the combined noise levels for the loudest construction equipment, assuming they operate at the same time, and shows that construction noise levels are expected to range from 48.8 to
55.5 dBA Leg at the nearby receiver locations. The construction noise analysis shows that the nearest receiver locations will satisfy the reasonable daytime 80 dBA Leq significance threshold during Pacific Oaks Commerce Center construction activities. Therefore, the noise impacts due to the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center construction noise are considered less than significant at all off -site receiver locations. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Nighttime Construction
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project has the potential to require nighttime concrete -pouring activities, which support reduced concrete mixer truck transit times and lower air temperatures than during the daytime hours and are generally limited to the actual building pad area. Since the nighttime concrete pours will take place outside the hours permitted by Chapter 87.0905 [e] [1] [c] of the City of Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

Yucaipa Municipal Code, the project applicant will be required to obtain authorization for nighttime work from the City. Nighttime construction noise activities are evaluated against the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) nighttime exterior construction noise level threshold of 70 dBA Leg for noise - sensitive residential land use.
As shown in Table 5.13-9, Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Nighttime Concrete Pour Noise Level Compliance, of the Draft SEIR, the noise levels associated with the nighttime concrete pour activities are estimated to range from 24.3 to 31.7 dBA Leq at the nearest off -site noise -sensitive receiver locations. The analysis shows that the unmitigated nighttime concrete pour activities will satisfy the FTA 70 dBA Leq nighttime residential noise level threshold at the nearest off -site noise -sensitive receiver locations. Therefore, the noise impacts due to Pacific Oaks Commerce Center construction nighttime concrete -pour activity are considered less than significant at all receiver locations and will require prior authorization for nighttime work from the City of Yucaipa. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from noise to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact from construction noise. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

For Impact 5.13-2, refer to Section D, Significant and Unavoidable Impacts that Cannot be Mitigated to Below the Level of Significance.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would result in on -site noise sources such as cold storage loading dock activity, tractor trailer parking activity, roof -top air conditioning units, trash enclosure activity, parking lot vehicle movements, and truck movements. Consistent with similar warehouse uses, business operations would primarily be conducted within the enclosed building, except for traffic movement, parking, and loading and unloading of trucks at designated loading bays.
Daytime Operational Noise Levels
Operational phase noise associated with the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project site were calculated at each of the sensitive receptor locations. Table 5.13-10, Daytime Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Operational Noise Levels, of the Draft SEIR shows the project's operational noise levels during the daytime hours Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

of 7:00 am to 10:00 pm. The daytime hourly noise levels at the off -site receiver locations are expected to range from 34.6 to 43.5 dBA Leq.
Nighttime Operational Noise Levels
Table 5.13-11, Nighttime Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Operational Noise Levels, of the Draft SEIR, shows the unmitigated Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Project operational noise levels during the nighttime hours of 10:00 pm to 7:00 am. The nighttime hourly noise levels at the off -site receiver locations are expected to range from 35.9 to 43.4 dBA Ley. The differences between the daytime and nighttime noise levels are largely related to the estimated duration of noise activity, as outlined in Tables 5.13-10 and
5.13-11, of the Draft SEIR.
Day -Night Operational Noise Levels
Noise levels that would be experienced at receptor locations when the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project -source noise is added to the daytime and nighttime ambient conditions are presented on Table
5.13-12, Daytime and Nighttime Project Operational Noise Level Increases, dBA L.g, of the Draft SEIR. As indicated in this table, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would generate a daytime operational noise level increase ranging from 0.0 to 0.3 dBA Ley at the nearest off -site receptor locations. Additionally, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would generate a nighttime operational noise level increase ranging from 0.0 to 0.7 dBA Ley at the nearest off -site receptor locations. Project -related operational noise level increases would not exceed the operational noise level increase significance criteria; therefore, the increases at the off -site sensitive receiver locations would be less than significant.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from noise to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact from operational noise. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.13-3: For Impact 5.10-3, refer to Section D, Significantand Unavoidahle Impacts that Cannor he Mitigated to Below the Level of Signilcance.
Impact 5.13-4: The Proposed Project would not create substantial short-term or long-term groundborne vibration and groundborne noise that would impact sensitive receptors proximate to the plan area. [Threshold N-2]
Groundborne Vibration and Noise
FCSP Buildout
The primary vibratory source during the construction of future development projects associated with the Proposed Project would be large bulldozers. However, the impact would be considered less than significant because of the short duration of the activity and because the vibration levels would be well below the threshold of building damage. Like the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

have less than significant impacts. The Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Table 5.13-19, Vibration Damage Levels forTypical Construction Equipment, of the Draft SEIR, presents the expected Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project -related vibration levels at the nearby receiver locations, and ground vibration levels associated with various types of construction equipment are summarized. At distances ranging from 1,048 to 2,693 feet from Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project site construction activities, construction vibration velocity levels are estimated to range from 0 to 0.003 in/sec PPV. Based on maximum acceptable continuous vibration threshold of 0.2 PPV (in/sec), the typical construction vibration levels would fall below the building damage thresholds at all the sensitive receiver locations. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center vibration impacts are considered less than significant during typical construction activities at the project site. Therefore the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from noise to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact from groundborne vibration and noise. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.13-5: The plan area is not in the vicinity of an airport or private airstrip; and therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in exposure of future resident and/or workers to airport -related noise. [Threshold N-3] Aircraft Noise
FCSP Buildout
The Redlands Municipal Airport is approximately three miles from the plan area, and the plan area is not within the Redlands Airport Influence Area. There are no private airstrips within the vicinity of the Specific Plan. Therefore, no impacts would occur. The Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would result in the same impacts for airport noise as identified for the Specific Plan. No impact would occur. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from noise to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact from aircraft noise. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
13. Population and Housing
Specific Plan PPPs
There are no policies pertaining to population and housing in the Freeway Corridor Specific Plan.
Impact 5.14-1: The Proposed Project would not result in substantial unplanned growth in comparison to the Approved Project. [Threshold P-1]
Population Growth
FCSP Buildout
Housin_g and Population
The Approved Project was projected to result in 2,447 dwelling units, and the Proposed Project would allow up to 2,472 dwelling units, which is an increase of 25 units. Buildout of the Approved Project was projected to result in a population of 6,754 residents, and the Proposed Project would result in 6,823 residents, which is an increase of 69 residents. Though the Proposed Project would result in an increase in population and housing, the increase is nominal, and if the difference (69 residents and 25 units) is added to the existing population and housing estimates, shown in Table 5.14-1, Population Trends in the City of Yucaipa, and Table 5.14-2, Housing Composition in the City of Yucaipa, of the Draft SEIR, population estimates would be below the SCAG 2020 projections and would exceed the 2020 SCAG housing estimates by less than 1 percent. However, because California has a shortage of housing, Governor Newsom signed several bills to address the need for more housing, including the Housing Crisis Act of 2019 (SB 330). Therefore, the slight increase in housing, compared to the SCAG estimates, would not be a significant impact. Furthermore, the Proposed Project implements the objectives of the 2021-2029 Housing Element. Impacts would be less than significant.
Employment
The Approved Project was projected to create 2,999 jobs and the Proposed Project would create 1,709 jobs (not including employment from the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project). With the inclusion of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project, the total proposed employment of the FCSP would be 2,682 jobs, resulting in a decrease of 317 jobs compared to the 2008 Certified EIR. Though the Proposed Project would result in a decrease in jobs compared to the Approved Project, the jobs offered by the warehousing uses under the Proposed Project would be higher paying than the previously planned retail jobs, resulting in a benefit from an economic perspectivez. Further, because of market shifts in the retail market, the proposed update was developed to best meet future market trends.
Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.

Jobs-Housina Balance
A project's effect on the jobs -housing balance is an indicator of how it will affect growth and quality of life in the project area. If the Approved Project's housing and employment assumptions are added to the 2020 growth projections shown in Table 5.14-6, SCAG Growth Projections for the City of Yucapa, of the Draft SEIR, the Approved Project would have resulted in a jobs -housing ratio of 0.59 jobs per dwelling unit.3 Because the jobs -housing ratio for the city is housing -rich (0.52 jobs per dwelling unit; see Table 5.14-6), the increase in the jobs -housing ratio (0.58 jobs per dwelling unit4) from the additional jobs and housing proposed under the Proposed Project would be a slightly favorable result from a planning perspective because the Proposed Project would provide more jobs in a city that has more housing than employment opportunities. Though the Proposed Project would result in a reduction of 317 jobs compared to the Approved Project, the jobs -housing ratio under both the Approved Project and Proposed Project are similar and would result in a more balanced jobs -housing ratio compared to existing conditions.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard than were analyzed in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project area was proposed to be all residential, and therefore, no jobs were forecast for this portion of the plan area in the 2008 Certified EIR. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project is estimated to generate 973 jobs. Warehousing jobs would be higher paying than retail, which is a benefit from an economic perspective. As a result, impact of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would be similar to that identified for the FCSP Update, and impacts would be less than significant. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard than were analyzed in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact from population and employment growth associated with the Proposed Project. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds. 3 Approved Project = 2,999 jobs, 2,447 dwelling units

Displacing People or Housing
FCSP Buildout
As with the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would develop a variety of uses on vacant and previously disturbed land. Implementation of the Proposed Project would not result in the need to redevelop existing homes and would not necessitate the construction of replacement housing. The Proposed Project would result in an increase of 25 dwelling units compared to the Approved Project.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts related to potential displacement of housing and/or people in comparison to the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Impacts of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would be the same as that identified for Proposed Project. Additionally, there are no residential housing units that would be displaced during construction of the project site. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts related to potential displacement of housing and/or people in comparison to the Approved Project.
Finding. The Proposed Project would have no significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact from displacing people or housing. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
14. Public Services

This system shall be calculated to provide 500 gpm from an adjacent automatic fire sprinkler riser at 100 psi nozzle pressure for two hand lines flowing.
To ensure that the construction of the proposed structures does not impact the Yucaipa Fire Department's Insurance Services Office (ISO) rating, applicant shall pay to the City approximately half of the cost of a ladder truck fire apparatus (with associated equipment) in the amount of $490,000 to be used by the City to assist with the purchase of the ladder truck.
Impact 5.15-1: The proposed project would introduce new structures, residents, and workers into the Yucaipa Fire Department's service boundaries, which could increase the requirement for fire protection facilities and personnel. [Threshold FS-1] Fire
FCSP Buildout
Compared to the 2008 Certified EIR, the Proposed Project would result in an increase of 69 residents but a decrease of 317 employees. Yucaipa Fire Station #3 would provide initial response to the plan area. Station #3 would achieve a 6-minute, 36-second travel time to the farthest part of the plan area, the northeast, and would have a response time of 8 minutes and 36 seconds. Although this response time is beyond the 5-minute standard, given the plan area's fire safety features, such as ensuring that adequate water supply and approved paved roads are available before combustibles are brought on - site, providing adequate turnaround space for fire apparatus, installing gates to meet Fire Code requirements, creating fuel modification zones, etc., and the flexibility allowed by the response time 90 percent achievement rate, the response time is considered to substantially conform with the Fire Department's internal standards, subject to Fire Department review.
The Proposed Project would increase the volume of calls by up to 1,417 calls per year (which is a conservative assumption) compared to existing conditions. However, because the plan area is predominantly vacant, an increase in call volumes would occur under both the Approved Project and Proposed Project. Based on the existing call volumes for the Fire Department and the equipment coverage needs to address medical aid calls, the Department has identified that additional staffing will be necessary as part of the overall Citywide growth. This includes a future medic squad to specifically alleviate the medical aid calls, as well as a ladder aerial truck to address larger sized structures.

01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 186
Since the certification of the 2008 EIR, a new fire station (Yucaipa Fire Station #3) has been constructed at Wildwood Canyon Road that would provide fire services to the plan area. Under the Approved Project, impacts were considered less than significant upon construction of this fire station.
Additionally, when compared to the Approved Project, there would be no major change in impacts for fire services. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in physical impacts to the environment due to construction or expansion of fire facilities. However, funding remains a critical issue to address the Citywide equipment and staffing levels. Future development will therefore need a Community Facilities District (CFD) or Fire Service Agreement (FSA) that is approved and implemented to support the needs of the Yucaipa Fire Department to serve the FCSP. In particular, the CFD or FSA shall address the equipment requirements related to an identified need for an aerial ladder truck.
When properly implemented and ongoing, the fire protections strategies proposed in the Fire Protection Plan would significantly reduce the potential fire threat to vegetation and structures in the plan area, and therefore would assist Yucaipa Fire Department to respond to emergencies in the plan area. The Proposed Project would result in a decrease in employees and a nominal increase in residents compared to the Approved Project. Additionally, with the implementation of the plans, programs, and policies, impacts would be less than significant. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard, when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center is within the FCSP, and development of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would also result in an increase in service calls compared to existing conditions. Impacts associated with the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would be the same as those identified for the Proposed Project, which would establish the BP designation for the project site. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would result in fewer employees than the 2008 Certified EIR, and therefore, compared to the 2008 Certified EIR, service calls for the project site would also be less.
Therefore, the Pacific Oak Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard, when compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from public services to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to fire facilities and services. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.15-2: The Proposed Project would introduce new structures, residents, and workers into the Yucaipa Station's service boundaries, which could increase the requirement for police protection facilities and personnel. [Threshold PS-1] Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

Police
FCSP Buildout
The Yucaipa Station is approximately 1.7 miles northeast of the FCSP area's northern boundary.
Implementation of the Proposed Project would result in an increase in the following types of service calls/demands, compared to existing conditions: residential burglary, commercial burglary, vehicle burglary, vandalism, vehicle theft, trespassing, and domestic violence, as most of the site is currently vacant.
Compared to the 2008 Certified EIR, the Proposed Project would result in an increase of 69 residents but a decrease of 317 employees. Although the Yucaipa Station indicated that the increase in residents under the Proposed Project, compared to existing conditions, would require an additional five deputies to maintain the current staffing ratio, the Proposed Project would not require the construction of a new and/or expanded police station. The Yucaipa Station indicated that based on the location of the FCSP area, the emergency response times would be increased due to extended drive times for the deputies. However, this condition would exist for both the Approved Project and the Proposed Project, and would likely be further addressed by deputies patrolling throughout the community, including within the newly constructed roadways for the Proposed Project. Additionally, compared to the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would not result in an increase in demand for deputies.
As with the Approved Project, impacts would be less than significant. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard, when compared to the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center is in the FCSP, and development of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would also result in an increase in service calls, compared to existing conditions. Impacts associated with the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would be the same as that identified for the Proposed Project. However, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would result in fewer employees than the Approved Project, and therefore, compared to the 2008 Certified EIR, service calls for the project site would also be less. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard, when compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from public services to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to police and emergency facilities and services. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

Impact 5.15-3: The proposed project would not generate new students who would impact the school enrollment capacities of area schools. [Threshold SS-1] Schools
FCSP Buildout
The Proposed Project would result in 2,472 dwelling units. Compared to the Approved Project, this is an increase of 25 dwelling units. However, unlike the Approved Project, the Proposed Project does not include optional school sites. Therefore, additional demand for school facilities may not be accommodated within the plan area. The student generation rate for YCJUSD is 0.7 student per dwelling unit. Therefore, the Proposed Project would generate approximately 1,730 students,5 which is an increase of 18 students6 compared to the Approved Project. Table 5.15-3, Estimated Proposed Project Student Generation, of the Draft SEIR, shows the estimated available capacity for each school. As identified by the YCJUSD, existing school facilities may not be adequate to serve additional students generated by the Proposed Project.
While the Proposed Project would increase demand for new school facilities in the YCJUSD, the demand would be accommodated through the payment of development fees pursuant to SB 50.
Pursuant to California Government Code Section 65995(h), payment of the impact fees fully mitigates impacts to school facilities. If additional schools are needed, construction of additional and/or expanded facilities would be subject to CEQA review, and could be developed within the plan area if deemed necessary. Implementation of the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in regard to school facilities in comparison to the Approved Project.
Therefore, impacts of the Proposed Project would be less than significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The demand for school services is typically generated by residential uses. Under the Proposed Project, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not construct residential uses but business park uses instead. Nonetheless, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would pay impact fees, pursuant to California Government Code Section 65995(h), which would fully mitigate impacts to schools.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard, when compared to the Approved Project.
Finding. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to school facilities and services. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
5 2,472 dwelling units x 0.7 student per unit = 1,730 students / 5 schools = 346 students per school. 6 25 dwelling units x 0.7 students per unit = 18 students / 5 schools = approximately 4 additional students per school compared to the Approved Project

Impact 5.15-4: The proposed project would not result in adverse physical impacts to libraries and would not require the construction of new library facilities. [Threshold LS-1]
Libraries
FCSP Buildout
The Proposed Project would result in an increase of 69 people compared to the Approved Project.
The only library in the City of Yucaipa is the Yucaipa Branch Library, which is approximately 1.7 miles northeast of the project site. The Yucaipa Branch Library building is considered small for the population size; the estimated deficit of building area is between 5,000 square feet to 7,000 square feet.
While the Proposed Project would result in an increase in library services, the San Bernardino County Library System (SBCLS) provides free access to information, and electronic access to SBCLS's collection of materials is available through the internet. Additionally, an increase of $2.8 million has been approved for a shared project between SBCLS and the City of Yucaipa to move and build a new library in Yucaipa. Funding for library services comes primarily from property tax revenue. As development within the FCSP area occurs, property tax revenue should grow proportionally. The City is also currently exploring options to develop a new library to serve the entire community.
Therefore, with the payment of property tax, online access to electronic materials, and the operation of the new library, impacts of the Proposed Project to library facilities would be less than significant. t1s with the 2008 Certified EIR, the Proposed Project would not result in impacts to library facilities.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the Approved Project.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The demand for library services is typically generated by residential uses. Under the Proposed Project, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not construct residential uses, but business park uses.

01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 190
Development Standards
Chapter 4, Development Standards, of the FCSP regulates the planning and development of all properties in the plan area. The FCSP identifies general provisions; permitted land uses; development standards; landscape standards; sign regulations; common open space, parks, trails, and hillside preservation; and infrastructure for residential and nonresidential uses. For example:
■ Parks are permitted uses under the Residential, Agro-Commercial Tourism, Regional Commercial, and Open Space designations.
■ Indoor/outdoor recreation facilities are permitted uses under the Residential, Agro-Commercial Tourism, Regional Commercial, and Open Space designations. ■ All single-family residential development with lot sizes less than 10,000 square feet shall provide one pocket park of at least 10,000 square feet for each 50 residential dwelling units. ■ All common open space for multifamily unit types or high -density land uses shall be usable indoor or outdoor areas, and may include active spaces or passive spaces.
Design Guidelines
Chapter 5, Design Guidelines, of the FCSP provides direction for site planning, landscaping, building design, and site features for residential and nonresidential uses that promote the aesthetics appropriate for this area and to maintain the rural character of Yucaipa. For example:
■ For multifamily development, pocket parks and tot lots shall be sited centrally within the project in compliance with Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles.
Impact 5.16-1: The Proposed Project would generate additional residents that would increase the use of existing park and recreational facilities. [Threshold R-1] Recreation
FCSP Buildout
Since the certification of the EIR for the Approved Project, additional parks and recreational facilities have been developed in the City. Additionally, the City prepared a General Plan Update in 2016 that evaluated Yucaipa's demand for recreation in the Parks, Recreation, Trails, and Open Space Element.
The General Plan Update identified that the City of Yucaipa at buildout, which included the Approved Project, would have sufficient parkland.
The City of Yucaipa has approximately 551 acres of local, community, and regional parks and special use facilities, and 1,253 acres of natural open space. Yucaipa's parks and open space are also supplemented by the City's multiuse trails; school play areas, recreational facilities, and athletic fields; and special use facilities.

01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 191
The Proposed Project would add approximately 6,823 residents, which is an increase of approximately 69 residents compared to the Approved Project's estimated population of 6,754 residents. Based on the City's parkland standard of 3.5 acres per 1,000 residents, the Proposed Project and Approved Project would create a demand for 23.88 acres and 23.64 acres of parkland, respectively. The Proposed Project would result in a net increase in demand of 0.24 acre compared to the Approved Project.? Compared to the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would result in a slight increase in the use of existing parks and recreational facilities.
With the implementation of the Proposed Project, the City would continue to have a surplus of parkland, and the increase of 0.24 acre in demand would be nominal and would not result in substantial physical deterioration of existing parkland in Redlands, Calimesa, or Yucaipa. Like the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would be conditioned to pay park development fees and/or dedicate parkland within the plan area to ensure that sufficient parkland is available to residents.
Furthermore, the FCSP Update includes design guidelines and development standards for the provision of open space and parks in the plan area. As identified in the FCSP Update, all single-family residential developments with lot sizes less than 10,000 square feet are required to provide one pocket park of at least 10,000 square feet for each 50 dwelling units. Consequently, some of the demand for new parkland would be met on -site, which would reduce off -site recreational needs and potential impacts to parks in the vicinity of the plan area, including parks in Calimesa and Redlands. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant and the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts to parkland than what was identified in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Impacts of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project are similar to those identified above for the Proposed Project. Typically, residential uses result in a higher demand for recreation facilities compared to nonresidential uses. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project does not include the development of residential uses, and impacts would be less than significant. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to impacts in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from recreation to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to recreational facilities and services. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

Impact 5.16-2: Project implementation would not result in environmental impacts to provide new and/or expanded recreational facilities. [Threshold R-2] Expanded Recreational Facilities
FCSP Buildout
As stated in Impact 5.16-1, the Proposed Project would result in the development of trails and parks in the plan area. As identified in the FCSP Update, all single-family residential developments with lot sizes less than 10,000 square feet are required to provide one pocket park of at least 10,000 square feet for each 50 residential dwelling units. The construction of these trails and parks were analyzed throughout the SEIR. On a project -by -project basis, construction associated with individual park facilities would be less intensive than the mass grading required for development of the individual planning areas within the plan area. Like the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would not require new and/or expanded facilities outside of the plan area. The incremental increase in demand for parkland (0.24 acres) generated by the Proposed Project compared to the Approved Project would not result in additional impacts. In addition, the Proposed Project would be conditioned to pay park development fees to the City, and impacts would be less than significant. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts to parkland than those identified in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not develop residential uses, and no parks are planned on the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project site. Therefore, no impacts would occur. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard when compared to the impacts in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from recreation to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact from expanded recreational facilities. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
16. Transportation
Specific Plan PPPs
The following are plans, programs, and policies (PPPs) that would reduce the Proposed Project's potential transportation impacts:

Impact 5.17-1: The Proposed Project would not conflict with a program, plan, ordinance, or policy addressing the circulation system, including transit, roadway, bicycle, and pedestrian facilities. [Threshold T-1]
Consistency with Plan, Policy, Ordinance Addressing Circulation System FCSP Buildout
The Proposed Project would have similar impacts to alternative transportation plans as the Approved Project. Since the 2008 EIR was certified, the City has adopted an updated General Plan and transportation policies. The FCSP Update is consistent with the City's updated complete streets goals and policies included in the current General Plan. Specifically, the FCSP Update implements circulation Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

goals to ensure consistency with local alternative transportation plans, such as promoting pedestrian and bicycle activities, providing adequate and safe nonmotorized connections across I-10, connecting trails to the San Timoteo Canyon regional bicycle trail, and providing multipurpose trails within natural and improved settings to improve connectivity. The FCSP includes an updated multimodal trail and circulation system and provides interconnectivity between the planning areas. The FCSP also requires new development to provide a system of pedestrian walkways for safe and convenient access. The FCSP promotes pedestrian and bicycle activities through off -road trails and along roads, and allows for bus stops in all the planning areas.
The City's General Plan includes a Bikeway Network that shows the planned bike lanes in the City, including within the plan area. Additionally, transit service in Yucaipa at buildout is anticipated to include additional routes, as identified in the San Bernardino County Long Range Transit Plan Final Report. A new Route 5 is anticipated to travel along 5th Street, Avenue E, and Wildwood Canyon Road. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts or new impacts related to consistency with alternative transportation plans. Impacts would be less than significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Consistency of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Project with local multimodal transportation plans are the same as that identified for the Proposed Project. As identified above, compared to the Approved Project, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in a new impact or substantial increase in magnitude of impacts related to pedestrian, bicycle, or transit use in the Plan area. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from recreation to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact on policies and plans addressing the circulation system. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.17-2: The Proposed Project would not generate a substantial increase in total VMT compared to the Approved Project. [Threshold T-2]
Vehicle Miles Traveled
FCSP Buildout
Proiect Generated VMT Scenario
Table 5.17-4, Project Generated VMT Comparison of the Proposed Project to the Approved Project, of the Draft SEIR, shows that there would be a net decrease in VMT per service population (VMT/SP) from Approved Project to the Proposed Project. This is primarily due to the decrease in retail and associated employment accommodated by the Proposed Project compared to the Approved Project. Compared to the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would not result in a new impact or substantial increase in magnitude of impacts related to VMT. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.

Proiect Effect on VMT Scenario
Table 5.17-5, Project Effect on VMT Comparison of the Proposed Project to the Approved Pr ject, of the Draft SEIR, shows an increase in VMT/SP from the Approved Project. However, since VMT/SP would be less than Citywide VMT/SP, the FCSP Update is anticipated to result in a less than significant transportation impact related to VMT. Compared to the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would not result in a new impact or substantial increase in magnitude of impacts related to VMT.
Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Table 5.17-6, VMT Comparison of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Project, of the Draft SEIR, shows that the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center is anticipated to result in a less than significant transportation impact related to VMT based on the City's SB 743 thresholds. Consequently, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in a new impact or substantial increase in magnitude of impacts related to VMT. Furthermore, VMT associated with the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center is encompassed in the Specific Plan analysis in Tables 5.17-4 and 5.17-5, of the Draft SEIR, which shows that the Proposed Project would not result in a new or substantial increase in magnitude of VMT impacts compared to that identified in the 2008 Certified EIR. Therefore, project -level impacts would also be less than significant.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from transportation to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have no significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to N'ucaipa's traffic analysis and methodology. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.17-3: The Specific Plan adequately addresses potentially hazardous conditions (sharp curves, etc.), potential conflicting uses, and emergency access. [Threshold T-3 and T-4]
Hazardous Conditions and Emergency Access
FCSP Buildout
The Proposed Project would result in an increase of 25 units and 507,486 square feet compared to the Approved Project. As shown in Table 5.17-7, Trip Generation Comparison of the Proposed Project to the Approved Project with PCE, of the Draft SEIR, the Proposed Project would result in a substantial decrease in vehicle trips, and as a result, congestion compared to that of the Approved Project because of the reduction of regional retail land uses compared to business park/warehouse land use types. As a result, the Proposed Project would not result in a substantial increase in emergency hazards compared to the Approved Project. Additionally, a congestion -based Transportation Impact Analysis (TIA) has been prepared and identifies circulation improvements to maintain the City's congestion -based Level of Service (LOS) standards. These recommendations are identified as Conditions of Approval for new development within the FCSP.

The circulation system of the FCSP Update has been designed to enhance visual and physical connectivity between neighborhoods, open space, and other uses within the area. The Specific Plan implements circulation goals to improve safety and emergency access, such as providing new roadways and trail connections to serve vehicular and emergency access needs and designing routes and access locations to minimize traffic to surrounding neighborhoods. Roadways within the Plan area are required to be designed to incorporate traffic -calming measures that improve comfort and safety.
Traffic- calming design elements within the planning areas to provide a safe pedestrian environment may include narrower streets, roundabouts, intersection curb bump -outs, medians, shorter blocks, and tree canopies extending over streets. These encourage slower vehicular speeds and improve safety, and will allow efficient daily and emergency vehicular access as well as provide for multimodal (pedestrian, bicycle, and equestrian) access to all areas in the project. Public roads within the plan area would be dedicated to the City and maintained by the Public Works Department of the City of Yucaipa. Local private streets within a project boundary will be maintained though funding from the Homeowners Association fees or by the owner of the given project.
Additionally, for developments in Phases 5 and 6, secondary freeway access is required to be available prior to commencement of development to connect to I-10, as required by City public safety and emergency response personnel. A safety analysis was conducted at the interchange ramps on Live Oak Canyon Road, Wildwood Canyon Road, and County Line Road (see Appendix P of the Draft SEIR).
The TIA (Tables BB and CC) identify that the queues at the interchange ramps would not cause traffic to back up to the freeway mainline. In addition, a comparison of the queues under with Wildwood Canyon Road Interchange and without Wildwood Canyon Road Interchange shows a reduction in queues lengths at the Live Oak Canyon Road and County Line Road interchange ramps for the majority of the turning movements. The Proposed Project would not result in new impacts or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts to emergency access and safety hazards compared to the Approved Project. Impacts would be less than significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Transportation hazards associated with the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Project are the same as that identified for the Proposed Project. As identified above, compared to the Approved Project, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in a new impact or substantial increase in magnitude of impacts related to transportation hazards. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from transportation to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have no significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to roadway hazards and emergency access. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

17. Utilities and Service Systems
Specific Plan PPPs
The following are plans, programs, and policies (PPPs) that would reduce the Proposed Project's potential utility and service system impacts:
Development Standards
The FCSP does not include specific development standards for wastewater treatment and collection in Chapter 4, Development Standards; however, Chapter 3, Project Description, describes the sewer system requirements. Section 3.8, Water and Sewer System, provides the infrastructure plans and required project design features to support development in the FCSP that is required by the Yucaipa Valley Water District (YVWD).
The FCSP does not include specific development standards for water systems in Chapter 4, Development Standards; however, Chapter 3, Project Description, describes the water system requirements. Section 3.8, Water and Sewer System, provides the infrastructure plans and required project design features to support development in the FCSP.
Section 3.8 notes that water pipelines must be sized to adequately service the following water demands as defined by the YVWD:
■ Maximum day demand multiplied by 1.33 plus the fire flow with a residual pressure of 20 pounds per square inch and a maximum velocity of 10 feet per second. ■ Maximum Hour Demand with a residual pressure of 40 pounds per square inch and a maximum velocity of 5 feet per second.
This section also states that the FCSP will utilize recycled water to irrigate greenbelt areas, commercial landscape areas, roadway medians, and yards for individual homes within YVWD's service area.
Section 3.8 also requires that proposed projects in the plan area incorporate the following water conservation measures:
■ Coordinate with local water agencies to evaluate impacts of proposed developments on water supply and demand.
■ Utilize low -output water systems through recycled water (for projects within YVWD's service area), water conserving irrigation systems, and landscape design. ■ Provide water facilities that adequately serve high quality water to future residents. ■ Ensure proper maintenance to avoid loss due to leakage.

The proposed land use plan includes an overall increase of 25 dwelling units and 504,713 square feet of nonresidential uses. Table 5.19-2, Change in Sewer Generation, of the Draft SEIR, provides a summary of sewer demands for the Approved Project and the Proposed Project and shows that the Proposed Project would increase sewer flows by 213,930 gpd or 0.21 mgd compared to the Approved Project.

Project, like the Approved Project, would require the construction of new sewer infrastructure on -site and off -site since the plan area is currently undeveloped.
New lift stations and potential relocation of the existing lift station to provide adequate service and conveyance to the treatment plant may be needed. YVWD is currently evaluating the number of lift stations, capacity of the existing lift station, and potential relocation of this lift station. It is likely that this lift station would require improvements or relocation and upsizing to handle the increased flows.
The construction of the on -site and off -site sewer lines and associated improvements would primarily include trenching for the pipelines. All construction would be in accordance with the State Construction General Permit. Any work that may affect services to the existing sewer lines would be coordinated with the City and YVWD, and a construction management plan or equivalent is required to ensure safe pedestrian access as well as emergency vehicle access and safe vehicle travel. Moreover, when considering impacts resulting from the installation of any required wastewater infrastructure, all impacts are relatively short term and would cease once the installation is complete. Therefore, impacts on wastewater systems associated with construction activities would be less than significant.
YVWD has a formal process to ensure that the overall sewer system —including future sewer lines and the integrity of existing facilities —is managed efficiently. All new development projects must prepare detailed sewer reports, including detailed demands, grading plans, pad elevations, anticipated easements and public dedications, points of connection, anticipated sewer line alignments, and slopes. Once the documentation is complete, YVWD incorporates the sewer demands into the sewer hydraulic model to evaluate impacts and identify the required sewer infrastructure upgrades necessary to support development pursuant to the Proposed Project while ensuring that existing systems and service areas are not negatively impacted. YVWD has a proactive process to track the condition of sewer infrastructure through established capital improvement projects and project -by -project review of required documentation.
Since the Proposed Project is being evaluated at a programmatic level, with the exception of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Project, and there are no projects with sufficient detail to analyze at this point, site -specific sewer infrastructure details and requirements are not known at this time. As projects consistent with the Proposed Project are submitted, detailed sewer analyses will identify on- and off - site improvements. In certain instances where more precise detail is required, developers may be required to perform sewer flow monitoring at key nodes in the existing sewer system that would receive future flows from the planning area. All development would also need to pay developer fees and fair - share contributions for regional improvements.
The increase in sewer flows of approximately 0.61 mgd would increase the amount of treatment required at the WRF (see Table 5.19-2). The existing wastewater flow within the system is approximately 3.8 mgd as of 2020, resulting in remaining capacity of 4.2 mgd. Therefore, development anticipated under the Proposed Project would not exceed the available wastewater treatment capacity of the WRF.
Additionally, project -generated wastewater would comply with the Sana Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board's Order No. R8-2015-0027. Development pursuant to the Proposed Project would also be designed, constructed, and operated in accordance with the YVWD's Order No. 54-2009.

Therefore, impacts would be less than significant. The Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe impacts associated with wastewater treatment and infrastructure when compared to the analysis in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Construction of any on -site and off -site sewer lines and associated improvements would be in accordance with the State Construction General Permit and coordinated with the City and YVWD. A construction management plan or equivalent would be required to ensure safe pedestrian access, emergency vehicle access, and safe vehicle travel. Moreover, when considering impacts resulting from the installation of any required wastewater infrastructure, all impacts are relatively short term and would cease once the installation is complete. Therefore, impacts on wastewater systems associated with construction activities would be less than significant.
The 24-inch trunkline that bisects planning areas BP2 and BP3 does not have sufficient capacity for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project. A new sewer line from the proposed development to the waste treatment facility that runs parallel to the existing 24-inch line is proposed to avoid adding any flows to the impacted line. The proposed line would be within the future roadway between BP2 and BP3 and would tie into the existing line south of BP3 that leads to the treatment facility.
As with any development in the plan area, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project must prepare detailed sewer reports, including detailed demands, grading plans, pad elevations, anticipated easements and public dedications, points of connection, anticipated sewer line alignments, and slopes. Once the documentation is complete, YVWD would incorporate the sewer demands into the sewer hydraulic model to evaluate impacts and identify the required sewer infrastructure upgrades necessary to support the development while ensuring existing systems and service areas are not negatively impacted. The project applicant would also need to pay developer fees and fair -share contributions for regional improvements. Therefore, impacts on wastewater infrastructure associated with the operational phase of development pursuant to the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would be less than significant.
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe impacts associated with wastewater treatment and infrastructure when compared to the analysis in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from utilities and service systems to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to wastewater facilities. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

Water Supply and Delivery Systems
FCSP Buildout
Water Infrastructure
Proposed development within the FCSP area is anticipated to fall within Pressure Zones 9 through 12 based on the analysis completed for the 2008 FCSP. There have been no significant changes that would alter the pressure zones.
A draft water infrastructure plan for both potable and nonpotable water systems has been completed by YVWD for the FCSP. Approximately 1,364 linear feet of on -site potable waterlines would be installed connecting private water lines from each building with the public system in the proposed streets. Approximately 20,690 linear feet of off -site potable public water lines would be installed to service the Proposed Project.
Figure 5.19-4, Proposed Potable Water Infrastructure, of the Draft SEIR, shows the proposed potable water lines needed to serve the Proposed Project. A new water connection would be required and begin at Avenue D and Oak Glen Road to the north and run south under the I-10 within Live Oak Canyon and then easterly in the new proposed road leading to the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project, and new water lines would be needed for planning Areas PA14 through PA 24. For development north of I-10, existing and new water lines would service the proposed land uses. For the proposed residential and commercial uses west of Live Oak Canyon Road, water lines would be extended from Live Oak Canyon Road. In addition to proposed pipelines, the water infrastructure plan also notes additional water wells, tanks, and booster pumping plants needed throughout the FCSP project area.
Recycled water pipelines would occur adjacent to all proposed potable water infrastructure. Projects in the plan area would be responsible for implementing on -site potable and recycled water lines (if they are within YVWD's service area), water reservoirs, booster systems, and off -site potable and recycled water lines to their specific locations to bring water sources into the new service areas and ensure adequate pressure for fire flow protection. Project's within SMWC's service area would need to implement the requirements of SMWC's Standard Specification for the Furnishing of Materials and the Construction of Water Facilities.
All construction would be performed in accordance with the Construction General Permit. Any work that may affect services to the existing water lines would be coordinated with the City and the associated water district. When considering impacts resulting from the installation of any required water infrastructure, all impacts are relatively short term and would cease once the installation is complete. Therefore, impacts on water systems associated with construction activities would be less than significant.
All three water districts in the plan area have a formal process to ensure that the overall water system is managed efficiently and functions properly, including infrastructure, fire flow requirements, and water supply availability. New development projects must prepare detailed water hydraulic reports.

Therefore, impacts on water infrastructure associated with the operational phase of the Proposed Project would be less than significant. The Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe impacts associated with water delivery systems when compared to the impacts in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Water Demand
The Proposed Project increases the total dwelling units by 25 and increases the nonresidential land uses by 504,713 square feet. Table 5.19-6, Residential and Nonresidential Water Demands, of the Draft SEIR, shows the total water demands for the Approved Project compared to the Proposed Project and shows that potable water demands would increase by approximately 412 acre-feet per year (afy), and recycled water demands would decrease by approximately 177 afy.
YVWD's 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) states that there are sufficient water supplies through 2045 to meet projected demands in normal years, single dry years, and multiple dry years through 2045. As identified in the WSA (see Appendix Q of the Draft'SEIR), YVWD would enter into a long-term water supply agreement with WHWC to supplement WHWC's groundwater supplies with imported water supplied by YVWD. Additional water supplies for the Proposed Project are also expected to be secured by water rights acquired by YVWD from the South Mountain Water Company to further enhance the water supplies for proposed development within YVWD's and WHWC's service areas.
SNIWC's service area encompasses the County Line Road Warehouse project and an additional 9.7 acres of Business Park land uses. The additional 9.7 acres of Business Park uses would result in a potable water demand of 19,400 gpd (or approximately 22 afy).s 11s shown in Table 5.19-4, .S'111RY, Norval, ,Single Dj�,, and /Multiple Dg fear,Supple and Demand, of the Draft SEIR, SMWC has residual water supply to accommodate this increase in potable water demand and impacts would be less than significant.

Therefore, impacts on water systems associated with construction activities would be less than significant.
For the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project, new water service lines would be constructed to service the two industrial buildings and the future residential component (PA 10). The applicant worked with YVWD on pipe sizes, alignments, and associated infrastructure to provide reliable water supply and fire flow protection and determined the alignments for both potable and recycled water lines to follow 6 Using YVWD's potable water demand rate of 2,000 gpd/ac for Light Industrial uses.

the proposed roadway network associated with the proposed land uses. For recycled water infrastructure, proposed pipeline alignment would occur adjacent to all proposed potable water infrastructure. Separate pipelines and water storage facilities are used between the two sources to avoid mixing.
As with any development in the plan area, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would prepare detailed water hydraulic reports. Once the documentation is complete, YVWD would incorporate the water demands into the water hydraulic model to evaluate impacts and identify the required water infrastructure upgrades necessary to support the development while ensuring existing systems and service areas are not negatively impacted. The project applicant would also need to pay developer fees and fair share contributions for regional improvements. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant. The project would not result in new or substantially more severe impacts associated with water delivery infrastructure when compared to impacts in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Water Demand
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center is within the proposed FCSP, and development of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project is included in the water demand identified in Table 5.19-6. As identified in the WSA (see Appendix Q), the YVWD indicates that there would be sufficient water supplies to meet the demand for Pacific Oaks Commerce Center. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts to water supply when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from utilities and service systems to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to water supply and treatment facilities. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

San Bernardino County Flood Control District (SBCFCD) and the City require that new development complete drainage and hydrology analyses to ensure that on - and off -site drainage facilities can accommodate increased stormwater flows. New development would be required to prepare a stormwater water quality management plan that includes implementation of on -site best management practices.

Additionally, hydromodification impacts would be addressed on a project -by -project basis in accordance with the San Bernardino County Technical Guidance Document. All projects would also be required to evaluate project -specific impervious surface calculations to ensure proper mitigation of runoff is met, and would be subject to the provisions in the 2012 Master Plan of Drainage (MPD), which requires projects to match or reduce peak flows compared to predevelopment conditions.
Additionally, all new storm drain systems would be designed in conformance with the City's standards.
Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in a new or substantially more severe significant impact associated with storm drainage infrastructure when compared to the Approved Project, and impacts would be less than significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
A preliminary hydrology report for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center was prepared (see Appendix L of the Draft SEIR). Existing peak flow rates were determined for the 100-year, 24-hour storm event and compared to peak flows for the proposed development for the same storm events. Proposed storm drain facilities would be designed and constructed in accordance with SBCFCD requirements and the City's standards. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard compared to impacts in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from utilities and service systems to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to stormwater facilities. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.19-4: Existing and/or proposed facilities would be able to accommodate Project - generated solid waste and comply with related solid waste regulations. [Thresholds U-4 and U-5]
Solid Waste
FCSP Buildout
Implementation of the Proposed Project would decrease solid waste generation by 65,015 pounds per day when compared to the Approved Project, as shown in Table 5.19-8, Change in Solid baste Generation, of the Draft SEIR. Therefore, the San Timoteo Sanitary Landfill would be able to accommodate the solid waste generated from buildout of the Proposed Project.
Furthermore, substantial reductions in solid waste from construction materials can be achieved through recycling, reuse, and diversion programs. CALGreen section 5.408, Construction Waste Reduction, Disposal and Recycling, mandates recycling and/or salvaging for reuse a minimum of 65 percent of the nonhazardous construction and demolition waste. The California Building Code also requires a Construction and Demolition materials management plan prior to issuance of building permits for large projects. Project -related construction and operation phases would comply with federal, State, and local laws and regulations that govern solid waste disposal. With continued compliance with the applicable regulations, anticipated rates of solid waste disposal would be less than Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

significant. The Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe impacts associated with solid waste disposal when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The solid waste generation for the Proposed Project includes solid waste generated by the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project, and the San Timoteo Sanitary Landfill would be able to accommodate the solid waste generated from the project. Additionally, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would implement the requirements of CALGreen, would implement a Construction and Demolition materials management plan, and would comply with federal, State, and local laws and regulations that govern solid waste disposal as listed above. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe impacts associated with solid waste disposal when compared to impacts in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from utilities and service systems to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to solid waste disposal facilities and services. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.19-5: The Proposed Project would not require or result in the relocation or construction of new or expanded electric power, natural gas, or telecommunication facilities the construction or relocation of which could cause significant environmental effects. [Threshold U-1(part)] Other Utilities
FCSP Buildout
Construction
Most large construction equipment for construction would be gas or diesel powered, and later construction phases would require electricity -powered equipment such as nail guns for interior construction and sprayers for architectural coatings. Overall, the use of electricity would be temporary and would fluctuate according to the phase of construction. Therefore, energy consumption associated with construction activities would be similar. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in a new or substantially more severe significant impact when compared to the Approved Project, and impacts would be less than significant.
Operation
Compared to the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would result in a decrease of 11,322,933 kilowatt-hours per year in electricity and 24,924,846 kilo British thermal units per year of natural gas demand. The decrease is generally attributable to the decrease in the regional commercial space in lieu of warehousing space. Land uses accommodated under the FCSP would be subject to the Building Energy Efficiency Standards and CALGreen which would contribute to reducing building energy demands through energy efficiency and use of renewable energy.

Total electricity consumption in SCE's service area is forecast to decrease by approximately 1,068 gigawatt-hours between 2020 and 2035. The total gas consumption in the SoCalGas service area was approximately 7,333 million therms in 2020, with demand projected to be 7,672 million therms in 203.
SCE and SoCalGas forecast that they will have sufficient electricity and gas supplies to meet demands in its service area.
Infrastructure supporting telecommunications services associated with the Proposed Project would be provided and installed on -site. Concealed wireless telecommunications facilities would be installed, resulting in physical impacts to the surface and subsurface of the plan area. These impacts are part of the construction phase and are evaluated throughout this Draft SEIR. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant. The Proposed Project would not result in new or substantially more severe impacts when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Construction
Energy consumption during the construction phase of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would be similar to other development pursuant to the Proposed Project. Therefore, impacts would be less than significant. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe impacts when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Operation
Energy- consumption for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project is included in the overall energy consumption for the Proposed Project. As noted above, the Proposed Project would result in a decrease in both electricity and natural gas use. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would be required to comply with the latest applicable Building Energy Efficiency Standards and CALGreen, and the two proposed warehouses would each have a photovoltaic system installed. Each system would generate up to 150,000 kilowatt-hours per year of renewable electricity. Additionally, SCE and SoCalGas forecasts that they will have sufficient supplies to meet demands in their service areas.
Therefore, implementation of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not require SCE to obtain new or expanded electricity supplies; impacts would be less than significant.
Infrastructure supporting telecommunications services would be provided and installed on -site.
Concealed wireless telecommunications facilities would be installed. These impacts are part of the construction phase and are evaluated throughout this Draft SEIR. Impacts would be less than significant. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new or substantially more severe impacts when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from utilities and service systems to less than significant levels.

18. Wildfire
The following are plans, programs, and policies (PPPs) that would reduce the Proposed Project's potential wildfire impacts:
Fire Protection Plan
Development within the FCSP is required to adhere to the requirements identified in the FCSP Fire Protection Plan (see Appendix S).
Section 2.2.5 Fire Protection Features' Beneficial Effect on Wildfire Ignition Risk Reduction
1. Ignition Resistant, Planning, and Maintained Landscape. Landscaping within the plan area, including common areas and Fuel Modification Zones (FMZ), would be subject to strict plant types that are lower ignition plants. Landscaping close to structures will require irrigation to maintain high plant moistures.
2. Fuel Modification Zones. All development within the plan area will provide an FMZ, which would be 100 feet and includes specifically selected plant species, very low fuel densities (only 30 percent retention of native plants in outer zones and irrigated inner zones), and ongoing maintenance, resulting in a wide buffer between the developed areas and the off -site native fuels.
3. Annual FMZ Inspections. All developments within the Specific Plan area, each developer would have a contracted, 3rd parry, Yucaipa Fire Department —approved FMZ inspector perform two inspections per year to ensure that FMZs are maintained in a condition that is consistent with the City's and Fire Protection Plan requirements and would provide a benefit of a wide barrier separating wildland fuels from on -site ignitions.
4. Ignition Resistant Structures. Structures within the plan area would be built to the CBC Chapter 7A ignition resistant requirements that have been developed and codified after fire save and loss assessments. These measures would result in structures that are designed, built, and maintained to withstand fire and embers associated with wildfires.
5. Interior Fire Sprinklers. Developments within the plan area would include interior fire sprinklers, which are designed to provide additional time for occupants to escape the structures. Sprinklers are also designed to provide structural protection.
6. Fire Access Roads. All roads within the plan area would provide code -consistent access throughout each development, including at least two points of ingress/egress.
7. Water. Future development within the plan area will provide water for firefighting throughout the project site, including fire hydrants accessible by fire engines, which is a critical component of suppressing both structural and vegetation fires. All development in the plan area will provide firefighting water volume, availability, and sustained pressures to the satisfaction of Yucaipa Fire Department.

01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 211
Section 5.4 Defensible Space and Vegetation Management
This section of the Fire Protection Plan includes defensible space and FMZ requirements. An FMZ is a strip of land where combustible vegetation has been removed and/or modified and partially or completely replaced with more adequately spaced, drought -tolerant, fire-resistant plants to give structures a reasonable level of protection from wildland fire. The FMZ would include a minimum 5- foot-wide noncombustible Zone A, a 45-foot-wide irrigated Zone B, and a 50-foot-wide thinning Zone C. In areas that would be unable to achieve 100 feet of FMZ, the incorporation of enhanced construction features, such as a 6-foot heat deflecting wall constructed of concrete masonry units between on -site structures and unmaintained open space would be used to provide a functional equivalency for a full FMZ. FMZs would be maintained on at least an annual basis or more often as needed to maintain the fuel modification buffer function. An on -site inspection will be conducted by the Yucaipa Fire Department upon completion of landscape installation before a certificate of occupancy being granted by the City's building code official.
Additionally, a fire access road zone would provide 10 feet of horizontal clearance on each side and 20 feet of vertical clearance along all fire access roads. This zone would also require an unobstructed vertical clearance of 20 feet, appropriate placing of landscaping and native plants, lower flammability trees, and maintenance of landscaping and other features.
Prior to the start of construction, perimeter fuel modification areas would be implemented and approved by the Yucaipa Fire Department from combustible materials that are brought on -site. This includes removing 50 percent of the existing flammable vegetation and removing dead fuel, ladder fuel, and downed fuel.
Appendix D of the Fire Protection Plan contains a list of undesirable plants that have highly flammable characteristics. These characteristics can be physical (structure promotes ignition or combustible) or chemical (volatile chemicals increase flammability or combustion characteristics). These plants could not be planted or allowed to establish opportunistically within the FMZs or landscape areas.
Conditions of Approval

portion of interior space within 150 feet in any direction of travel. This system shall be calculated to provide 500 gpm from an adjacent automatic fire sprinkler riser at 100 psi nozzle pressure for two hand lines flowing.
To ensure that the construction of the proposed structures does not impact the Yucaipa Fire Department's Insurance Services Office (ISO) rating, applicant shall pay to the City approximately half of the cost of a ladder truck fire apparatus (with associated equipment) in the amount of $490,000 to be used by the City to assist with the purchase of the ladder truck.
Impact 5.20-1: The Proposed Project would not substantially impair an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan. [Threshold W 1] Emergency Response and Evacuation Plans
FCSP Buildout
Primary access to and from the plan area would occur via multiple access points such as Live Oak Canyon Road and Outer Highway 10 South in the northwestern portion of the plan area; and Live Oak Canyon Road, I-10, and new roadways in the southern portion of the plan area. During later phases of project development, site access would also be available via the I-10 interchange at Wildwood Canyon Road.
The Proposed Project would include the features to ensure adequate fire access and evacuation in the plan area roadways, such as ensuring all roads comply with access road standards of not less than 20 feet of unobstructed width, with wider requirements within the City's FR overlay, interior roads will be constructed to minimum 20-foot unobstructed widths, with wider requirements within the City's FR overlay, gradient of fire apparatus access roads shall not exceed the maximum 12 percent, private and public streets for each phase shall meet all plan -area -approved fire code requirements, vertical clearance of vegetation will be maintained at 13 feet 6 inches, cul-de-sacs and fire apparatus turnarounds shall meet Yucaipa Fire Department standards, traffic lights shall have traffic pre-emption devices compatible with devices on the fire apparatus, roadways/driveways will provide fire department access within 150 feet of all portions of the exterior walls, ensure that roadway design features do not interfere with emergency apparatus response speeds, and access roads shall be usable by fire apparatus. Single access points, such as cul-de-sac shall be restricted, and an emphasis within the Proposed Project is to maintain at least two points of access for all individual projects.
The Proposed Project would increase the residential units and total residents by 25 dwelling units and 69 residents, respectively, compared to the Approved Project. Additionally, the Proposed Project would decrease the number of jobs by 317 jobs compared to the Approved Project; the proposed employment centers would include more logistics and warehousing than the Approved Project, which would reduce the number of visitors to the plan area due to less retail and commercial uses. This change to the number of residents and jobs would reduce daily weekday trips under the Proposed Project by 81,073 trips when compared to the Approved Project, as discussed in Chapter 5.17, Transportation, of this Draft SEIR. Therefore, if the entire plan area were to evacuate at the same time, the number of vehicles needing to evacuate would be reduced under the Proposed Project.

Effective emergency response depends on the Fire Department response times throughout the plan area. Yucaipa Fire Station 3 would provide initial response to the plan area with an average response time of 8 minutes and 36 seconds. Although this response time is beyond the five-minute response standard, given the Proposed Project's fire safety features and the flexibility allowed by the response time 90 percent achievement rate, the response time is considered to substantially conform with the Fire Department's internal standards, subject to Fire Department review. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not impair the Emergency Operations Plan more substantially than the Approved Project. In addition, conditions for new specialized equipment would provide additional resources for the Yucaipa Fire Department and its response to fires or other emergencies.
The Proposed Project would include Conditions of Approval, such as ignition -resistant landscaping and code -compliant access roads, which would ensure adequate fire safety and emergency access. The Proposed Project would be required to comply with state and local regulations and requirements to ensure adequate road widths and clearances for emergency vehicles and access. As such, impacts would be less than significant.
Emergency response and evacuation could be hindered by construction activities. However, all construction staging would be within the plan area and would not block access to and from the plan area. The construction would be phased over 15 to 20 years and would have similar construction activities to that of the Approved Project. Therefore, the Proposed Project would not impede emergency access to or evacuation from the surrounding community compared to the Approved Project.
AS such, the Proposed Project would not result in new impacts or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts to adopted emergency response and evacuation plans compared to the Approved Project.
Impacts would be less than significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center is within the proposed FCSP, and development of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would result in 317 fewer jobs compared to the Approved Project.
Therefore, fewer vehicles would need to evacuate at the same time under the Proposed Project, and impacts associated with the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would be slightly less than those identified for the Approved Project. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would include at least two points of ingress/egress from "new street," and "new street" would not be a single access road. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would be required to comply with the fire safety and construction features of the proposed FCSP and therefore would not hinder emergency response or result in inadequate evacuation due to construction activities. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard than what was analyzed in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from wildfires to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to emergency access and evacuation plans. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

Impact 5.20-2: The Proposed Project would not, due to slope, prevailing winds, and other factors, exacerbate wildfire risks, and thereby expose project occupants to pollutant concentrations from a wildfire or the uncontrolled spread of a wildfire. [Threshold W-2]
Exposure to Pollutants from Wildfire or Uncontrolled Wildfire Spread FCSP Buildout
The plan area varies from flat to steeply sloped, experiences Santa Ana wind events, and has other factors such as highly flammable grass- and herb -dominated fuels. Under current conditions, wildfires and associated smoke could potentially travel to the plan area and expose existing residents and employment centers in the project area to the uncontrolled spread of wildfire or pollutant concentrations due to slope, prevailing winds, and highly flammable fuels. However, the Proposed Project would not exacerbate these impacts compared to the Approved Project.
As with the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would include similar vegetation management, water, street design, and fuel break features throughout the plan area. Additionally, the California Building Code (CBC), California Fire Code (CFC), and Fire Safe Regulations have been updated since the certification of the 2008 EIR, and therefore the Proposed Project would be required to go beyond the requirements of the Approved Project for vegetation and fuel management in the plan area to reduce wildfire impacts. Furthermore, the Proposed Project would go beyond the code requirements to include an FMZ with an added noncombustible zone, advanced protection measures where 100- foot FMZ is not possible, FMZ inspections, and a Homeowners Association education and outreach program.
Both the Approved Project and the Proposed Project would require grading to change the slopes in the area and place development on relatively flat surfaces, according to the City of Yucaipa Grading Manual. However, this would not change the prevailing winds in the plan area. Grading would be limited to areas designated for buildings, resurfacing, and landscaping. Similar to the Approved Project, development of the Proposed Project would place buildings at the top of slopes, which could exacerbate wildfire risks. However, development of residential, commercial, and industrial structures as part of the Proposed Project would be subject to Chapter 7A of the CBC, which requires ignition - resistant materials and design that would make the structures less prone to exacerbate wildfire risks than the existing structures in the plan area, which were built prior to the stricter building codes for development in Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones. As such, the Proposed Project would not result in new impacts or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts compared to the Approved Project.
Impacts would be less than significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center is within the proposed FCSP, and development of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would be required to comply with the vegetation management, water, street design, and fuel break design features of the proposed FCSP. Additionally, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would be required to comply with the most recent versions of the CBC, CFC, Fire Safe Regulations, Yucaipa Municipal Code, and proposed FCSP development standards, which would Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

minimize the potential for ignition and spread of wildfire on the project site. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard than were analyzed in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from wildfires to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to exposure of pollutants from, or spread of, a wildfire. Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.
Impact 5.20-3: The Proposed Project would not require the installation or maintenance of associated infrastructure (such as roads, fuel breaks, emergency water sources, power lines or other utilities) that may exacerbate fire risk or that may result in temporary or ongoing impacts to the environment. [Threshold W 3] Installation or Maintenance of Infrastructure
FCSP Buildout
Buildout under the Approved Project and Proposed Project would require the installation of new roadways, fuel breaks, emergency water sources, power lines, and other utilities to serve development in the plan area.
Roadways. New roadways would connect the various FCSP uses to the City roadway network.
Both the Approved Project and Proposed Project would create new roadways in Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone areas to accommodate the new development, along with evacuation and multimodal forms of transportation.
Fuel Breaks. Both the Approved Project and Proposed Project include fuel breaks which would occur in the open space areas of the plan area, along roadways, and within 100 feet of a structure.
The Proposed Project would go beyond what is required in the Fire Safe Regulations and CFC to maintain 100 feet of FMZ where possible in the plan area, including a 5-foot-wide noncombustible Zone A, 45-foot-wide irrigated Zone B, and a 50-foot-wide thinning Zone C. Where a 100-foot FMZ is not possible, the Proposed Project would include dual -pane windows, ember resistant vents, and a 6-foot heat deflecting wall in development.
Emergency Water Sources. Both the Approved Project and Proposed Project would include the installation of fire hydrants and emergency water supplies for construction and operation of the FCSP. This would require the installation of new water conveyance infrastructure in the plan area, which is not currently served by water supplies.
Power Lines. The Approved Project did not include provisions for undergrounding power lines.
However, the Proposed Project would underground power lines throughout the plan area for fire safety purposes, in compliance with Development Code requirements.

■ Other Utilities. Development under both the Approved Project and Proposed Project would require the installation and maintenance of water systems, septic or sewer systems, internet infrastructure, and stormwater systems throughout the plan area.
These types of improvements would involve temporary construction and result in changes to existing conditions under both the Approved Project and Proposed Project. The installation of roadways, power lines, and other utilities could increase the risk of wildfire. However, the power lines and other utilities would be installed underground and therefore minimize the risk of wildfire under the Proposed Project compared to the Approved Project. Additionally, the implementation of fuel breaks and stricter FMZs would ensure that accidents and sparks from roadways under the Proposed Project would decrease fire risks compared to the Approved Project.
Furthermore, compliance with the most recent CBC, CFC, Fire Safe Regulations, and Yucaipa Municipal Code, would ensure construction and operation of the Proposed Project would minimize the ignition and spread of wildfires due to infrastructure. These State and local regulations are stricter than those evaluated under the Certified 2008 EIR. The Proposed Project would not require the installation or maintenance of associated infrastructure that would result in new or substantially more severe fire risk when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR. Impacts would be less than significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center is within the proposed FCSP, and development of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would include the installation of similar roadways, fuel breaks, emergency water sources, power lines, and other utilities as the proposed FCSP. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would be required to comply with the most recent versions of the CBC, CFC, Fire Safe Regulations, Yucaipa Municipal Code, and proposed FCSP development standards, which would minimize the potential to exacerbate fire risks and would not result in temporary or ongoing impacts to the environment. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard than were analyzed in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from wildfires to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to installation or maintenance of infrastructure that may exacerbate fire risks.
Accordingly, no changes or alterations to the Proposed Project were required to avoid or substantially lessen any significant environmental impacts under those thresholds.

Impact 5.20-4: The Proposed Project would not expose people or structures to significant risks, including downslope or downstream flooding or landslides, as a result of runoff, post -fire slope instability, or drainage changes. [Threshold W-41 Post -Fire Exposure to Flooding or Landslides
FCSP Buildout
The plan area contains a 100-year and 500-year floodplain along Yucaipa Creek and Oak Glen Creek in the northern portion of the project site, the southern portion of the plan area is highly susceptible to landslides, and the northern portion of the plan area is moderately susceptible to landslides. The high landslide susceptibility areas coincide with lands designated as Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones.
Both the Approved Project and the Proposed Project would include commercial and residential development within the floodplain; however, the Proposed Project would include more open space lands within the floodplain. The plan area is not in the inundation zone of any dams, and no surface water bodies pose a flood hazard to the plan area due to a seiche. Similar to the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would be required to meet federal floodplain regulations, County and local approval agency regulations on floodplain and floodway management, and Developmental Standards that ensure floodplain regulations are taken to provide safety, promote public health, and minimize public and private economic losses in flood prone areas. Similarly, both the Approved Project and Proposed Project would include development in areas of high landslide susceptibility.
The Proposed Project would be required to comply with the most recent version of the CBC and Yucaipa Municipal Code, including development standards required by the Floodplain Safety Overlay District and the Geologic Hazard Overlay District. These regulations would ensure fire-, floodplain-, and landslide -resilient construction, and therefore would reduce the potential for post -wildfire flooding or landslides downstream or downslope compared to the Approved Project. Additionally, compliance with the City of Yucaipa's grading manual would minimize landslide hazards. Management of stormwater and erosion controls during construction and operation of the Proposed Project would prevent downslope or downstream flooding or landslides as a result of runoff, post -fire slope instability, or drainage changes compared to the Approved Project.
The Proposed Project would not result in new impacts or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts when compared to the 2008 Certified EIR. Impacts would be less than significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project site is not within a 100-year of 500-year floodplain, however, the project site is highly susceptible to landslides. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would be required to comply with the most recent versions of the CBC, Yucaipa Municipal Code, and proposed FCSP development standards, which would minimize the potential of post -fire slope instability causing downslope or downstream flooding or landslides. Compliance with applicable floodplain regulations would minimize flood hazards associated with the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center, and compliance with the City of Yucaipa's grading manual would minimize landslide hazards.

Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would not result in new or substantially more severe significant impacts in this regard than were analyzed in the 2008 Certified EIR.
Finding. Compliance with existing PPPs would minimize adverse impacts from wildfires to less than significant levels. The Proposed Project would have a less than significant direct, indirect, and cumulative impact to post -fire exposure to flooding or landslides.

C. FINDINGS ON SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS THAT CAN BE
REDUCED TO A LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT LEVEL
The following summary describes impacts of the Proposed Project that, without mitigation, would result in significant adverse impacts. Upon implementation of the mitigation measures provided in the EIR, these impacts would be considered less than significant.
1. Aesthetics
Impact 5.1-4: Implementation of the FCSP could expose people on- or off -site to substantial light and glare which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area. [Threshold AE-41
Light and Glare
Support for this environmental impact conclusion is fully discussed in Section 5.1, Aesthetics, and in particular, starting on page 5.1-11 of the SEIR.
FCSP Buildout
Sources of light in the plan area are currently limited given the predominantly undeveloped nature of the area. As with the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would include Residential, Regional Commercial, Business Park, Public Facilities, and Open Space uses, plus Agro-Commercial Tourism uses. Light sources would predominantly be from vehicle lights, exterior lights, landscaping lights, and security lights. Chapter 5, Design Guidelines, of the FCSP, includes sign regulations and outdoor lighting provisions that would reduce light impacts, such as directing and shielding light sources.
Pursuant to the Specific Plan, outdoor light fixtures that provide nighttime safety and security are required to conserve energy, protect the night sky, and minimize glare and light trespass within and beyond the project site. Additionally, before issuing any sign permits, the FCSP Update requires preparation of a Master Sign Program for nonresidential uses for review and approval by the Community Development Director, which would also have the potential to minimize light and glare impacts.
In comparison to the Approved Project, the light sources of the Proposed Project would be similar.
The 2008 Certified EIR included Mitigation Measures AES-1 and AES-2, which require the review of lighting and signage plans and discourage the use of highly reflective materials and would be Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 223
implemented under the Proposed Project. Therefore, impacts would be potentially significant without implementation of Mitigation Measure AES-1 and AES-2.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Development of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would result in business park uses that would include various light sources (exterior lights, security lights, vehicular lights). Proposed buildings would include glazing, windows, and signs. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would be required to comply with the lighting standards of the FCSP, including sign regulations and the nonresidential design guidelines for site planning and outdoor lighting. The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would be required to implement Mitigation Measures AES-1 and AES-2, which require the review of lighting and signage plans and discourage the use of highly reflective materials. Therefore, impacts would be potentially significant without implementation of Mitigation Measure AES-1 and AES-2.
Mitigation Measure:
Specific Plan
The following mitigation measure(s) was included in the SEIR and the Final SEIR, and is applicable to the Proposed Project. The measure(s) as provided include any revisions incorporated in the Final SEIR.
AES-1 Prior to issuance of grading permits, lighting plans and signage plans for new development shall be reviewed by the Community Development Department to ensure that minimal light intrusion and spill over into adjacent residential areas occurs.
AES-2 Prior to issuance of grading permits, and during the Specific Plan review process for future development in the Specific Plan site, the Director of Communit}, Development shall ensure that mirrored and highly reflective surfaces are discouraged or, where proposed, shall be accompanied by a design -level glare impact analysis that demonstrates no adverse visual impairment to motorists or other visual nuisance occurs.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Project
Implementation of Mitigation Measure AES-1 and AES-2.
Finding:
Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the Proposed Project that avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the SEIR. These changes are identified in the form of the mitigation measure(s) above. The City of Yucaipa hereby finds that implementation of the mitigation measure(s) is feasible, and the measure(s) is therefore adopted.
Rationale for Finding
Light and glare sources are currently limited because of the predominantly undeveloped nature of the plan area. The design guidelines in Chapter 5 of the FCSP include provisions for outdoor lighting and signs, and Mitigation Measures AES-1 and AES-2 require the review of lighting and signage plans and Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

discourage the use of highly reflective materials. Implementation of the FCSP design guidelines and Mitigation Measures AES-1 and AES-2 would reduce impacts to less than significant.
2. Air Quality
Impact 5.3-5: Operation of the Proposed Project would expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations of criteria air pollutants and toxic air contaminants. [Threshold AQ-3]
Construction -Phase LSTs and TACs
Support for this environmental impact conclusion is fully discussed in Section 5.3, AirQuality, and in particular, starting on page 5.3-49 of the SEIR.
FCSP Buildout
Operational Phase LSTs
Land uses that have the potential to generate substantial stationary sources of emissions or would require a permit from South Coast AQMD include industrial land uses, such as chemical processing, and warehousing operations, where substantial truck idling could occur on -site. On -site emissions include truck maneuvering and idling, Transport Refrigerant Units (TRUs), and diesel -powered forklifts and yard trucks.
As shown in Table 5.3-13, FCSP Maximum Daily Regional Operation Emissions, of the Draft SEIR, compared to the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would result in a net decrease in long-term emissions for all criteria air pollutants—VOCs, NOx, CO, S02, PMIo, and PM2.5. However, because the Proposed Project would introduce warehousing under the FCSP, it could result in exposing nearby sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations of criteria air pollutants.
Based on the screening -level LST analysis prepared for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center warehouses (see Table 5.3-20, Pacific Oaks Commerce CenterI-ocali.Zed On -Site Operational Emissions, of the Draft SEIR), operation of a warehouse could potentially exceed the screening -level LST for PM2.5• Therefore, localized impacts from the warehousing uses would be potentially significant.
Operational Phase Toxic Air Contaminants
Land uses that generate more than 100 truck trips per day have the potential to substantially increase TAC concentrations and health risks at off -site sensitive land uses within 1,000 feet of the facility.
Operation of the warehousing uses could generate DPM emissions from diesel truck activity, TRUs, and diesel -fueled off -road equipment in proximity to the nearby off -site sensitive receptors outside of the FCSP. For the operational Health Risk Assessment (HRA), all forklifts and yard trucks were assumed to be diesel fueled, however, industrial warehousing projects typically utilize nondiesel-fueled forklifts. Therefore, the operational HRA presents a very conservative estimate of potential health risks to the surrounding community. As shown in Table 5.3-19, Proposed Project Operational Health Risk Assessment Results, of the Draft SEIR, carcinogenic risks of 156.5 in a million would substantially exceed the adjusted cumulative significance threshold value of 5 in a million for the MEIR in the vicinity of Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project
CEQA Findings of Fact and
Statement of Overriding Considerations - 108 -
01/12/2026 City Council Agenda 225
the plan area without mitigation. Because the Proposed Project would exceed the cancer risk significance threshold, operation -related health risk impacts would be potentially significant. The Proposed Project would substantially increase the amount of land designated as BP compared to the Approved Project. In addition, health risk associated with DPM was not identified as a potentially significant impact in the Certified EIR. Therefore, the Proposed Project would result in new significant impacts or a substantial increase in significant impacts compared to the Approved Project.
Carbon Monoxide Hotspots
Areas of vehicle congestion have the potential to create pockets of Carbon Monoxide (CO) called hotspots. These pockets have the potential to exceed the State one -hour standard of 20 parts per million (ppm) or the eight -hour standard of 9.0 ppm. Hot spots are typically produced at intersections, where traffic congestion is highest because vehicles queue for longer periods and are subject to reduced speeds. The SoCAB has been designated in attainment of both the National and California Ambient Air Quality Standards (AAQS) for CO. Under existing and future vehicle emission rates, a project would have to increase traffic volumes at a single intersection to more than 44,000 vehicles per hour — or 24,000 vehicles per hour where vertical and/or horizontal mixing is substantially limited —to generate a significant CO impact. Overall, the Proposed Project could generate up to 4,973 peak hour trips (PM peak hour). Per the traffic analysis prepared for the Proposed Project, development of the Proposed Project under buildout year conditions with and without the Wildwood Canyon Road Interchange would not result in peak hour volumes at intersections in the traffic study area that would produce the volume of traffic required (i.e., 24,000 to 44,000 peak hour vehicle trips) to generate a CO hotspot.
Additionally, compared to the Approved Project, the Proposed Project would result in a net reduction of 3,004 ANI peak hour trips and 6,113 PNI peak hour trips. "Therefore, the Proposed Project would not result in new impacts or a substantial increase in severity of impacts compared to the Approved Project. Impacts would be less than significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Operational Phase LSTs
The Pacific Oaks Commerce Center warehousing project would be the type of land use that has the potential to generate substantial on -site criteria air pollutant emissions. On -site emissions include truck maneuvering and idling, TRUs, and diesel -powered forklifts and yard trucks. Table 5.3-20, Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Locali.Zed On -Site Operational Emissions, of the Draft SEIR, shows localized maximum daily operational emissions. As shown in the table, on -site project -related operational emissions for Building 2 would not exceed the screening -level LSTs. However, Building 1 operations would generate on -site emissions that exceed the PMz.s screening -level LSTs. Therefore, localized criteria air pollutant emissions impacts from project -related operations would be potentially significant, and the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project could result in a new impact compared to the Approved Project.
Operational Phase Toxic Air Contaminants
An operational HRA was prepared for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project. Operation of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would generate DPM emissions from diesel truck activity, Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

TRUs, and diesel -fueled off -road equipment in proximity to the same sensitive receptors evaluated in the construction HRA. For the operational HRA, all forklifts and yard trucks were assumed to be diesel fueled, however, industrial warehousing projects typically utilize non -diesel -fueled forklifts. Therefore, the operational HRA presents a very conservative estimate of potential health risks to the surrounding community. Table 5.3-21, Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Operational Health Risk Assessment Results, of the Draft SEIR, without mitigation, the cancer risk of 131.4 in a million would substantially exceed the adjusted cumulative significance threshold value of 5 in a million for the MEIR in vicinity of the project site. Because cancer risk would exceed the cancer risk significance threshold, operation -related health risk impacts from operation of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would be potentially significant. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would result in new significant impacts or a substantial increase in significant impacts compared to the Approved Project.
Combined Construction Phase and Operational Phase Toxic Air Contaminants Sensitive receptors proximate to the project site would be exposed to elevated levels of air pollutants during construction activities and subsequent operational activities. The combined health risks from project -related construction and operational activities for the maximum exposed receptors can be determined in several ways. The most conservative calculation for combining health risks is to sum the highest predicted construction and operational health risks for each receptor type. The sum of the health risks for the MEIR are shown in Table 5.3-22, Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Operation Plus Construction Health Risk Results, of the Draft SEIR; the total chronic hazard index would be less than one, and noncarcinogenic risk impacts would be less than significant. However, total cancer risks from project -related construction and operational activities would be 140.8 in a million without mitigation, which would substantially exceed the adjusted cumulative threshold value of 5 per million. Thus, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would pose a significant health risk impact to nearby sensitive receptors from construction and subsequent operational activities. Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center would result in new impacts or a substantial increase in severity of impacts compared to the Approved Project.
Carbon Monoxide Hotspots
CO hotspots of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project are the same as the Proposed Project.
Therefore, the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project would not result in new impacts or a substantial increase in magnitude of impacts compared to the Approved Project.

Implementation of Mitigation Measures AQ-2 and AQ-4, and new Mitigation Measures AQ-7 through AQ-12.
Finding:
Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the Proposed Project that avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the SEIR. These changes are identified in the form of the mitigation measure(s) above. The City of Yucaipa hereby finds that implementation of the mitigation measure(s) is feasible, and the measure(s) is therefore adopted.
Rationale for Finding
Implementation of Mitigation Measure AQ-2 would result all appliances to be energy efficient; Mitigation Measure AQ-3 would require future residential development to utilize electric fireplaces in lieu or traditional and wood -burning fireplaces/stoves; Mitigation Measure AQ-4 would require the installation of Energy Star labeled roof materials; Mitigation Measure AQ-5 would require residential developments to install energy -reducing ceiling/whole house fans; Mitigation Measure AQ-7 would require that off -road equipment be zero -emissions only; Mitigation Measure AQ-8 would require electric standby and/or hybrid transport refrigeration units only; Mitigation Measure AQ-9 would require truck/dock bays that serve cold storage facilities to be electrified; Mitigation Measure AQ-10 would require signage to be placed at truck access gates, loading docks, and truck parking lots to instruct truck drivers to shut off engines to reduce idling; Mitigation Measure AQ-11 would require all landscaping equipment to be zero emissions equipment; and Mitigation Measure AQ-12 would Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

implement specific measures for warehouse facilities. As such, electrification and compliance with energy efficiency standards would reduce onsite sources of NOx, CO, PMio, and PM2.5.
3. Biological Resources
Impact 5.4-1: Development of the Proposed Project could impact special -status plant and wildlife species within the plan area. [Threshold 13-1]
Special -Status Plant and Wildlife Species
Support for this environmental impact conclusion is fully discussed in Section 5.4, Biological Resources, and in particular, starting on page 5.4-47 of the SEIR.
FCSP Buildout
Special -Status Plants
Direct Impacts
Future development within the plan area has the potential to result in impacts to special -status plants through clearing, trampling, or grading. Any impacts to special -status plants would be potentially significant. Potential impacts to a federal- or state -listed plant species would be significant. Potential impacts to nonlisted special -status plants are potentially significant depending on the location and size of the impact. Implementation of mitigation would reduce potential direct impacts to a less -than - significant level. However, direct impacts to special -status plant species would be potentially significant in the absence of mitigation.
Indirect Impacts
■ Construction -Related Impacts. Special -status plant species and suitable habitat for special - status plant species, including Nevin's barberry tarplant, Parry's spineflower, slender -horned spineflower, Santa Ana River woollystar, California satintail, Hall's monardella, salt spring checkerbloom, and San Bernardino aster, may be indirectly impacted during future construction within the plan area. Potential construction -related indirect impacts to special -status plant species would be potentially significant absent mitigation.
■ Long -Term Impacts. Potential long-term indirect impacts could result from development near special -status plant species or their suitable habitat. Potential long-term indirect impacts to special - status plant species would be potentially significant absent mitigation.
Special -Status Wildlife
Direct Impacts
Two special -status wildlife species were observed during surveys, and an additional 19 special -status wildlife species were determined to have a moderate or high potential (or low potential for certain listed species) to occur in the plan area based on known species distribution, species -specific habitat preferences, and habitat conditions on the plan area. Potential impacts to the following species could occur and would be significant without mitigation: western spadefoot, fully protected raptors, burrowing owl, loggerhead shrike, riparian birds, fossorial small mammals, western mastiff bat, Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

American badger, southern California legless lizard, California glossy snake, coastal tiger whiptail, red diamondback rattlesnake, Blainville's horned lizard, and coast patch -nosed snake, and crotch bumble bee.
Indirect Impacts
Construction -related impacts could indirectly impact western spadefoot, fully protected raptors, burrowing owl, loggerhead shrike, riparian birds, fossorial small mammals, western mastiff bat, American badger, southern California legless lizard, California glossy snake, coastal tiger whiptail, red diamondback rattlesnake, Blainville's horned lizard, and coast patch -nosed snake, and crotch bumble bee through increased chemical pollutants, effects from noise and vibration, increased human presence, increased nighttime lighting, etc. Without mitigation, indirect construction impacts would be potentially significant. Additionally, long-term indirect impacts could result inadvertently affect these species through chemical releases, degradation of habitat, building collision, erosion, etc. While long- term impacts to loggerhead shrike would be less than significant due to their mobility, without mitigation, indirect impacts to all other species would be potentially significant.
Pacific Oaks Commerce Center
Special -Status Plants
Direct Impacts
Nine special -status plant species were determined to have a moderate to high potential to occur within the plan area based on known species distribution, species -specific habitat preferences, and habitat conditions on the project site: Nevin's barberry, smooth tarplant, Parry's spineflower, slender -horned spineflower, Santa Ana River woollystar, California satintail, Hall's monardella, salt spring checkerbloom, and San Bernardino aster. 'These species were targeted during a 2022 focused surrey for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project site, which includes the project site plus a 500-foot buffer, for special -status plants within the focused survey area in accordance with Mitigation Measure B-5 from the 2008 Certified EIR for surveys for special -status plants. Focused surveys for special - status plants were negative. The plan area does not occur within federally designated critical habitat for special -status plant species, and there would be no impacts to critical habitat.
Robinson's peppergrass and Southern California black walnut were not included as a target species for the 2022 focused surveys because they are CRPR 4 species, which are not considered rare; therefore, CEQA does not consider this ranking significant. While Robinson's peppergrass and Southern California black walnut were identified, they were not included as target species for the focused surveys.
Indirect Impacts
As identified above, the Pacific Oak Commerce Center project site is negative for special -status plants, including the approximately 500-foot buffer around the development area. No special -status plants are expected to occur in or within 500 feet of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project site. Direct and indirect impacts to special -status plants associated with implementation of the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center Project would be less than significant.

Special -Status Wildlife
Focused habitat assessments for the were conducted for coastal California gnatcatcher, arroyo toad, San Bernardino kangaroo rat, and Stephens' kangaroo rat for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project site, including a 500-foot buffer. These species are not expected to occur and are not analyzed further. Burrowing owl and least Bell's vireo were targeted during 2022 protocol surveys for the Pacific Oaks Commerce Center project area. Protocol surveys for burrowing owl and least Bell's vireo were negative. The plan area is not in federally designated critical habitat for special -status wildlife species, and there would be no impacts to critical habitat.
Direct Impacts
Direct impacts to the following species could occur: western spadefoot, fully protected raptors, burrowing owl, loggerhead shrike, fossorial small mammals, western mastiff bat, American badger, southern California legless lizard, California glossy snake, coastal tiger whiptail, red diamondback rattlesnake, Blainville's horned lizard, coast patch -nose snake, and crotch bumble bee. Without mitigation, impacts would be potentially significant. Focused survey area studies for Least Bell's vireo were negative, and while yellow warbler were detected along Yucaipa Creek which is adjacent to the Pacific Oaks Center Commerce project site, development on the project site would not result in the loss of any riparian habitat. Therefore, no impacts would occur to Least Bell's vireo and yellow warbler.
Indirect Impacts
Potential construction -related impacts could impact the following species: western spadefoot, fully protected raptors, burrowing owl, loggerhead shrike, yellow warbler, fossorial small mammals, western mastiff bat, American badger, southern California legless lizard, California glossy snake, coastal tiger whiptail, red diamondback rattlesnake, Blainville's horned lizard, coast patch -nose snake, and crotch bumble bee. Without mitigation, impacts would be potentially significant. Long-term impacts to the following species would be potentially significant and require mitigation: western spadefoot, burrowing owl, fossorial small mammals, western mastiff bat, American badger, southern California legless lizard, California glossy snake, coastal tiger whiptail, red diamondback rattlesnake, Blainville's horned lizard, coast patch -nosed snake birds, and crotch bumble bee. Long-term impacts to the following species would be less than significant as they are relatively mobile: white-tailed kites, loggerhead shrikes, and yellow warblers.
Mitigation Measure:
The following mitigation measure(s) was included in the SEIR and the Final SEIR, and is applicable to the Proposed Project. The measure(s) as provided include any revisions incorporated in the Final SEIR.
Specific Plan
B-6 Focused Special -Status Plant Survey and Avoidance. Outside the focused survey area (see Figure 5.4-1, Biological Resources Study Area), a focused special -status plant survey shall be conducted prior to ground -disturbing activities. The survey shall be conducted for Nevin's barberry, smooth tarplant, Parry's spineflower, slender -horned spineflower, Santa Ana River woollystar, California satintail, Hall's monardella, salt spring checkerbloom, and San Bernardino aster or as otherwise required by an updated habitat assessment conducted Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

by a qualified biologist. Surveys shall occur at the appropriate time of year to capture the characteristics necessary to identify the taxon. Surveys shall be conducted consistent with California Native Plant Society, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and California Department of Fish and Wildlife protocols and by a qualified botanist knowledgeable of the local flora.
The results of the survey shall be summarized in a report and would be valid for two years.
If no special -status plants are found during the survey, no further mitigation would be required.
If special -status plants are observed, the full extent of the occurrence of a special -status plant species within the survey area shall be recorded using GPS. The location of each special -status plant occurrence shall be mapped and number of individuals for each occurrence documented. The outer extent of each occurrence shall be flagged for avoidance (to the extent feasible).
For direct impacts to special -status plant species, one or a combination of the following strategies shall be implemented:
■ Avoidance and Minimization. Impacts to special -status plant occurrences shall be avoided to the greatest extent possible and minimized where avoidance is not feasible.
Where project impacts to special -status plant species cannot be avoided, mitigation is required and is discussed further below
Salvage. If impacts to special -status plants cannot be avoided and it is feasible to effectively salvage the plants, a qualified ecologist shall develop a restoration and mitigation plan based on the life history of the species impacted, as necessary, to mitigate project impacts. The plan shall include, at minimum, (a) collection/salvage measures for plants and/or seed banks to retain intact soil conditions and maximize success likelihood; (b) details regarding storage of plants and/or seed banks; (c) location of the proposed recipient site and detailed site preparation and plant introduction technique details for topsoil storage, as applicable; (d) time of year that the salvage and replanting or seeding shall occur and the methodology of the replanting; (e) a description of the irrigation, if used; (� success criteria; and (g) a detailed monitoring program, commensurate with the plan's goals.
B-7 Construction -Related Indirect Impacts to Biological Resources. Prior to issuance of a construction permit within 500 feet of proposed open space (conserved and nonconserved), suitable habitat for special -status species with potential to occur in the project site, aquatic resources, or sensitive vegetation communities, construction plans and conditions of approval shall include the following to address indirect impacts:
■ Biological Monitoring. A qualified project biologist approved by the City of Yucaipa shall monitor ground -disturbing and vegetation -clearing activities for the duration of the project to ensure that practicable measures are being employed to avoid incidental disturbance of habitat, species of concern, and other sensitive biological resources outside the project footprint. Once ground -disturbing and vegetation -clearing Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

activities are complete, the project biologist shall conduct weekly checks to inspect construction, staking, or flagging (see "Delineation of Property Boundaries," below) and ensure that all applicable requirements from the mitigation measures are being upheld.
■ Worker Environmental Awareness Training. Prior to grading, a pre -construction meeting shall be required that includes a training session for project personnel by a qualified biologist. The training shall include (1) a description of the species of concern and its habitats; (2) the general provisions of the applicable regulations pertaining to biological resources, including the Endangered Species Act and the Clean Water Act; (3) the need to adhere to the provisions of the Endangered Species Act, the Clean Water Act, and other applicable regulations; (4) the penalties associated with violating the provisions of the Endangered Species Act, Clean Water Act, and other applicable regulations; (5) the general measures that are being implemented to conserve the species of concern as they relate to the project; and (6) the access routes to the project site and the boundaries within which the project activities must be accomplished. Additionally, the training shall include the measures and mitigation requirements for the applicable resources. Copies of the mitigation measures and any required permits from the resource agencies will be made available to construction personnel and maintained in the construction site trailer, and be made available in alternate languages if necessary.
■ Delineation of Property Boundaries. Before beginning activities that would cause impacts, the contractor shall, in consultation with the biological monitor, clearly delineate the boundaries within which the impacts will take place with fencing, stakes, or flags, consistent with the grading plan. All impacts outside the fenced, staked, or flagged areas shall be avoided, and all fencing, stakes, and flags shall be maintained until the completion of impacts in that area. In addition, any avoided environmental resources will be clearly delineated.
■ Standard Dust Control Measures. Standard dust control measures as per the South Coast Air Quality Management District shall be implemented to reduce impacts on nearby plants and wildlife. Measures include controlling speed to 15 mph or less on unpaved roads, replacing ground cover in disturbed areas as quickly as possible, frequently watering active work sites, installing shaker plates, and suspending excavation and grading operations during periods of high winds. ■ Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Prior to issuance of a grading permit for construction, the applicant shall submit a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) to the City of Yucaipa that specifies best management practices to prevent all construction pollutants from contacting stormwater, with the intent of keeping sedimentation or any other pollutants from moving off -site and into receiving waters.
The requirements of the SWPPP shall be incorporated into design specifications and construction contracts. Best management practices categories employed on -site would include erosion control, sediment control, and nonstorm water (good Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project
CEQA Findings of Fact and
Statement of Overriding Considerations - 118 -

housekeeping). Best management practices recommended for the construction phase shall include, but not be limited to:
• Limit grading to the minimum area necessary for construction, operation, and decommissioning of the project.
• Limit vegetation disturbance/removal to the maximum extent practicable. • Implement fiber rolls and sandbags around drainage areas and the site perimeter. • Stockpile and dispose of demolition debris, concrete, and soil properly. • Install a stabilized construction entrance/exit, and stabilize disturbed areas. • Ensure proper protections for fueling and maintenance of equipment and vehicles.
• Manage waste, aggressively controlling litter, and implementing sediment controls.
• Stabilize soil in disturbed areas by revegetation.
The following water quality measures will be included in the SWPPP:
■ Erodible fill material shall not be deposited into water courses. Brush, loose soils, or other similar debris material shall not be stockpiled within the stream channel or on its banks.
■ Projects shall be designed to avoid the placement of equipment and personnel within the stream channel or on sand and gravel bars, banks, and adjacent upland habitats used by target species of concern, as feasible. Projects that cannot be constructed without placing equipment or personnel in sensitive habitats shall be timed to avoid the breeding season of riparian species.
■ When stream flows must be diverted, the diversions shall be conducted using sandbags or other methods requiring minimal instream impacts. Silt fencing or other sediment trapping materials shall be installed at the downstream end of construction activity to minimize the transport of sediments off -site. Settling ponds where sediment is collected shall be cleaned out in a manner that prevents the sediment from reentering the stream. Care shall be exercised when removing silt fences, as feasible, to prevent debris or sediment from returning to the stream. • Water pollution and erosion control plans shall be developed and implemented in accordance with the Regional Water Quality Control Board. ■ Minimize Spills of Hazardous Materials. All vehicles and equipment shall be maintained in proper condition to minimize the potential for fugitive emissions of motor oil, antifreeze, hydraulic fluid, grease, or other hazardous materials. Hazardous spills shall be immediately cleaned up, the contaminated soil shall be immediately cleaned up, and the contaminated soil shall be properly handled or disposed of at a Freeway Corridor Specific Plan Project

licensed facility. Servicing of construction equipment shall take place only at a designated staging area.
■ Invasive Weeds. To reduce the spread of invasive plant species, landscape plants shall not be on the most recent version of the California Invasive Plant Council's California Invasive Plant Inventory ( http://wwwcal-
ipc.org/ip/inventory/index.php).
■ Night Work. All construction activities will be conducted during the daytime, and lights will not be kept on overnight in the construction area, as practicable. If night lighting is required during construction activities, all exterior lighting along undeveloped land shall be fully shielded and directed downward in a manner that will prevent light spillage or glare into the adjacent open space.
B-8 Long -Term Indirect Impacts to Biological Resources. Prior to issuance of a construction permit within 500 feet of proposed open space (conserved and nonconserved), suitable habitat for special -status species with potential to occur in the project site, aquatic resources, or sensitive vegetation communities, construction plans and conditions of approval shall include the following to address indirect impacts to special -status species:
■ Runoff: Future development within 500 feet of proposed open space (conserved and nonconserved), suitable habitat for special -status species with potential to occur in the project site, aquatic resources, or sensitive vegetation communities shall incorporate measures, including measures required through the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System requirements, to ensure that the quantity and quality of runoff discharged is not altered in an adverse way when compared with existing conditions. In particular, measures shall be put in place to avoid discharge of untreated surface runoff from developed and paved areas into proposed open space or suitable habitat for special -status species. Stormwater systems shall be designed to prevent the release of toxins, chemicals, petroleum products, exotic plant materials, or other elements that might degrade or harm biological resources or ecosystem processes. This can be accomplished using a variety of methods, including natural detention basins, grass swales, or mechanical trapping devices. Runoff control systems shall receive regular maintenance to ensure their effective operation. ■ Toxicants: Land uses that use chemicals or generate bioproducts such as manure, fertilizer, or vineyard waste that are potentially toxic or may adversely affect plant species, wildlife species, habitat, or water quality shall incorporate measures to ensure that application of such chemicals does not result in discharges. Measures such as those employed to address drainage issues shall be implemented. ■ Lighting: Night lighting shall be directed away from proposed open space and/or suitable habitat for special -status species to protect species from direct night lighting.
Shielding shall be incorporated in project designs to ensure ambient lighting is not increased. Any trails that intersect proposed open space will not include night lighting.
