2:561

Noted that Commissioner Schneider is a recluse yourself from the item moving forward on this and will return after this item has been completed. So thank you. Jason, go ahead.

3:05 – 3:486

Okay. So our our first project is master case 25Dash0022. For our tentative parcel map 20 Five-one and environmental assessment review twenty five-one. The project is a request to allow the subdivision of assessor parcel number 0264 Dash 201 Dash 24 from one parcel into two parcels. The applicant is Mr.

3:48 – 4:266

Cotperto Ramos, who's here with us this evening. The address is 1685 North Eucalyptus Avenue And APN I reviewed, it's in a single family residential R1A zone. It has a general plan land use designation of residential six. And it is approximately 5.93 acres or about 258,299 square feet. The subdivision will be into two parcels.

4:26 – 5:056

This is what parcel map would be 20047. Parcel one would be approximately 33,594 square feet or 0.77 acres. And there's currently an existing seventeen thirty five square foot single family residence on that property, and there are plans for a detached ADU. Parcel number two is approximately 224,705 square feet or 5.16 acres. And at this time, there is no planned development.

5:05 – 5:466

There is nothing on there. It's vacant land. This project is consistent with the general plan land use element. Goal six-one to maintain and improve the quality of existing household and neighborhoods in Rialto with policy dash 1.5 to preserve the existing character and quality of established single family neighborhoods and communities. This project is consistent with the single family R1A zone and the Rialto municipal code.

5:47 – 6:596

And it is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act with section 15,315, which allows for the exemption of a project consisting of the division of property in an urbanized area zone for residential into less than fewer fewer than four parcels when it is in conformance with the general plan and zoning. There are no variances and all services are accessible. It has not been divided within the previous two years and it does not have an average slope greater than 20%. Staff recommendation is that the planning commission determine the project under EAR 20 five-one is categorically exempt pursuant to section fifteen three one five minor land divisions of CEQA and to adopt the attached resolution to approve tentative parcel map number 25 Dash 0001 with the map number being 20047.

7:00 – 7:121

And thank you, sir. This time we'd like to open the public hearing and. Is there anyone in audience that would like to speak of this? Is anyone requested to speak? I'm sorry, go ahead.

7:126

I'm sorry. I've received no. No no correspondence at all.

7:19 – 7:303

good. Mister, if I may, before we let the public speak, I would recommend that you allow the applicant to make a presentation if any. Very good. Does the applicant like to dress very good?

7:311

Thank you much.

7:33 – 8:018

Good evening gentlemen. Ladies. My name is Roberto Ramos. I've owned the property for eight years now and the decision for me to do this was, you know, it just it it I'm able now to utilize the property and separate the land. Because it did it just felt like it was too big.

8:01 – 8:578

The home is on the upper slope of the of the property, and then the rest is just kind of is just and and, you know, I originally had intentions to build additional homes there, but it's just not feasible at the moment. The the last thing that I worked on was possibly with the intention to making possibly soccer fields to match with the Frisbee Park. That is not feasible in the moment for myself. So it's just a you know, I did it for the intention of just separating both and then, you know, you know, allowing myself to finally finance the property. And, you know that's just the it's been a long time.

8:598

I said I've had it for a long time so it's a I'm just requesting that I can separate and keep the house separate.

9:061

Thank you. Commissioners for. Yeah, go ahead.

9:125

Is this property? I'm trying to think about it there on the others opposite side of the street. You have residences and as you go further north, have Frisbee Park.

9:213

Yes, Super

9:22 – 9:405

clear. Is this property below grade? When I say below grade, below the grade of the of of the street? Yeah. It slopes down into the Slopes down into the wash. Into the wash. Yeah. Okay. Is that a flood basin or does it have any kind of a flood? No. Alright, no, no further. Thank you very much.

9:408

11:559

I'm ready. Good evening chair, commissioners. I'll be giving the presentation on

11:591

real quick. Just sorry. Before we start, Daniel, we have Commissioner Schneider that's rejoined us after that item for this one.

12:05 – 12:299

Thank you. I'll be giving the presentation tonight on public hearing item number two. The project is entitled the Larch Avenue Industrial Project and the applicant is Miros Enterprises LLC. So on this first slide, just going over the project site and location for you. It is comprised of one parcel of land that's just under half an acre in size.

12:29 – 12:559

This property is located on the West Side of Larch Avenue, about 150 feet south of Rialto Avenue. It's within the general manufacturing M2 zone and it's also within the light industrial general plan land use designation. We've got two images here on this slide for you. The lower left one is the aerial. You can see the project site there with the red boundary.

12:57 – 13:359

It is completely surrounded on both the Northeast, South and West by existing industrial developments. And then you've got the image there on the lower right. That's the street frontage view. So you can see it's currently a vacant lot. It does have some improvements, a drive approach within the public right of way, but on-site it's vacant, and there's some existing chain link fencing along proposes to do is to construct a 7,022 square foot industrial warehouse building on the site with additional associated paving, landscaping, fencing, lighting and drainage improvements.

13:35 – 14:019

In the building that they're proposing would accommodate various storage distribution uses. The M2 zone does allow industrial warehouse developments subject to Planning Commission approval of both the conditional development permit and a precise plan of design application, both of which the applicant has applied for and both of which are before the commission tonight. So just moving on to the next slide. This will show you the site design. We've got the site plan there on the right side.

14:02 – 14:329

The applicant will place the building at the southwest corner of the project site. They'll also install 15 foot landscape setback along the Larch Avenue frontage. There will be nine passenger vehicle parking spaces on both the east side of the building and at the northwest corner of the site. That equals the amount of parking required by Chapter eighteen fifty eight off Street parking of the Rialto Municipal Code. There will be asphalt driveways installed on both the north and east sides of the building to facilitate access to both the building and the parking spaces.

14:32 – 15:059

And then there will be perimeter landscape planners around the north, west and south perimeters of the site. The landscape coverage for the overall site will be 17.3%, which exceeds the 10% minimum. Access to the site will be provided via one twenty six foot wide drive driveway, which will be on the north end of the Larch Avenue frontage. I've indicated its location there with the red arrow. And then additionally, the applicant will install pedestrian pathways, lighting and a perimeter concrete wall.

15:07 – 15:399

Next slide showing you the floor plan. The applicant will break the building up into 6,522 square feet of storage space and then have a 500 square foot office that would be located on the east end of the building facing Larch Avenue. There will be one grade level roll up door on the north side of the building that would be out of public view. That dock door would be accessible only to box trucks that would have to back into the or enter the building. There'll be no truck court on the exterior of the building.

15:42 – 16:039

I'm just moving on to the exterior design. You can see these are the two dimensional elevations. The project will include significant wall plane articulation both vertically and horizontally. The project the building will feature projected masses with up to 18 inches of depth. There will also be height variations on all four sides of the building.

16:04 – 16:339

Height of the building will vary from 23 feet at the lowest point up to 26 feet. The exterior finish of the building will be of stucco. It will consist of four colors of paint, white and then some various gray tones. And then the exterior of the building will also feature additional architectural features such as metal wall trellises, metal eyebrow accents, reveals, moldings, sconce lighting and glass. And then the next image is just a three d rendering giving you a better idea of what it would look at.

16:33 – 17:029

This is we're looking west into the site. So you can see that articulation I was mentioning with both the niches in the wall planes and then also the various height variations. So that sums up the design of the building. I'll just move into some of the analysis that was conducted. There was a traffic impact analysis scoping agreement that was prepared for this project.

17:03 – 17:299

The conclusion was that it did scope out and did not require the preparation of a traffic study. That said though, the trip generation within the traffic scoping agreement estimated that the project would generate up to 40 daily vehicle trips. Of those 36 would be passenger vehicle trips from employees and any customers. And then up to a maximum of four truck trips a day. Again, those will be the box trucks types.

17:31 – 18:129

The trip generation estimated five trips in the AM peak hour and six trips in the PM peak hour. And then all local intersections, nearby intersections, roadway segments would continue to operate at their current level of service. There'd be no impact to any existing level of service from this project. The staff determined that the project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to CEQA section 15,332 infill development projects. The applicant did have air quality analysis, greenhouse gas assessment, and a noise study prepared to substantiate that infill exemption determination.

18:13 – 18:539

The project is consistent with the M2 zoning designation. All the development standards required by both the M2 and Chapter 18.112 indoor storage facilities of the Rialto Municipal Code as well as it's also consistent with the surrounding industrial uses around the site. Public hearing notices were mailed to all property owners within 1,000 feet of the project site and the notice was also published in the San Bernardino Sun newspaper. One comment letter was received in advance of tonight's meeting. It was from the Rialto Unified School District, which I have provided a copy to each commissioner and there's a copy here on the table for the public.

18:54 – 19:319

In it, school district cited three items. Their first item was that they want to ensure that the project will pay school fees. The response to that is yes, there's a conditional approval in the resolution that requires the payment of school fees to the school district prior to any issuance of any building permit. Then their second comment was about traffic and air quality. The response was provided to that that indicated the level of insignificance that was identified in both the traffic scoping agreement and the air quality study.

19:32 – 20:049

And then the last comment was about safe routes to school. The response to that is that resolutions do require the project to install any missing safe routes to school improvements along the project frontage. I did provide that response to the school district before tonight's meeting and received no further response. And with that, the staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the two resolutions before you tonight approving the conditional development permit twenty twenty five zero zero one and precise plan of design number twenty twenty five zero zero zero one.

20:063

Mister chair, if I may, I just wanted to make sure that this is on the record. Does the commission have the copy of that letter from the school?

20:121

Yes, do.

20:133

Including the exhibits?

20:159

Do have the exhibits if we can get those.

20:171

I just have the the letter, which identifies the three items that Daniel went over.

20:219

Okay. Yeah. Do have them printed out here as well.

20:233

Yeah. Would commission see it like to see the exhibits? Because it's so far.

20:28 – 20:439

Yeah. The exhibits the exhibits were the location map and the public hearing notice that were mailed to as the school well as maps showing where the near schools are, Werner Elementary and Rialto Middle North. Correct.

20:45 – 20:571

Real similar to what the present the map that Daniel provided and things to do that. Yes. Commissioner need any other information about the letter that was submitted by the school district before we move on? Okay. All

20:579

right. Applicant here. And the applicant is in the eyes tonight if there's any questions.

21:011

The applicant requested for the item to be rescheduled. On 12/03/2025 Rialto PD requested for the item to be rescheduled to conduct a comprehensive review of the project. So for the February 18 meeting the project was re noticed.

25:20 – 25:537

And as for the project information, the zone is neighborhood commercial. The shopping center was built in 1989. The lot size is 9.3 acres. There are four forty six parking spaces. And the reason we are here today is because in accordance to the Rialto Municipal Code chapter 18.6603 section u of of the Rialto Municipal Code.

25:53 – 26:247

The establishment of a massage parlor requires a conditional development permit. This next slide is just an image of the floor plan. Everything exists as is. There have been no tenant improvements right now. Some of the services that will be offered are head therapy or scalp care, facials, and massage therapy.

26:28 – 27:127

I'd like to hear what those are and how staff address those.

32:447

Sure. On page two of the resolution.

32:517

Now would you like me to go through each of the findings individually? Okay.

32:56 – 33:317

So, the first is the proposed use is deemed essential or desirable to provide a service or facility which will contribute to the convenience or general well-being of the neighborhood or community. So and then I'll read the the staff finding. Is the project as conditions will provide a benefit to the community and neighborhood by providing residents and visitors with a safe and carefully monitored option for local massage services. Okay.

33:311

Next. Okay.

33:337

Number two.

33:34 – 34:327

The proposed use will not be detrimental or injurious to health, safety, or general welfare, a person's residing or working in the vicinity. The staff finding, the proposed massage parlor is consistent with the C1 zone and the surrounding land uses. The subject property and properties to the east accommodate various retail uses intended to serve the immediate residential uses. Massage parlors are generally compatible with other retail uses services typically found in commercial centers including the types of businesses that are likely to exist within the center. To ensure the health safety and general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity, the proposed use has been conditioned to include security cameras and a security plan which is to be approved by the Rialto Police Department prior to the issuance of a business license.

34:34 – 35:097

The project as conditioned will result in massage services that are properly monitored. Finding number three. The site for the proposed use is adequate in size, shape, topography, accessibility, and other physical characteristics to accommodate the proposed use in a manner compatible with existing land uses. Staff finding, the properties to the north of the project are zoned single family residential. The property to the south is State Route 210.

35:10 – 35:487

The properties to the west are within unincorporated San Bernardino County. The properties to the east are zoned neighborhood commercial. The site is an existing 900 square foot vacant tenant space within the Rancho Verde Plaza. The shopping center is approximately 9.311 acres and is located in the Northwest corner of Riverside Avenue and State Route 210. There is a shared parking lot with approximately four forty six parking spaces and with immediate neighboring uses that include a restaurant and an insurance office.

35:48 – 36:337

The primary purpose of the C1 zone is to allow for shopping centers designed to meet neighborhood shopping needs. Other similar services such as the barber shop and a beauty parlor are permitted by rights within the zone. Under the Rialto Municipal Code section 18.28.020e, other uses are permitted with which are subject to a conditional development permit per the Rialto Municipal Code chapter 18.66. A massage parlor is listed as a permitted use with the CDP. As such, the site for the proposed use is adequate and the proposed use is compatible with existing land uses.

36:35 – 37:437

Finding number four, the site has adequate access to those utilities and other services required for the proposed use. Staff finding, the project will have adequate access to all utilities and services required through main water, electric, sewer, and other utility lines that will be hooked up to the site. The rental verde rental verde plaza was developed with all necessary utilities and services in 1989. Finding number five, the proposed use will be arranged, designed, constructed, and maintained so as it will not be interest to property or improvements in the vicinity or otherwise be inharmonious with the general plan and its objectives, zoning ordinances or applicable specific plan and its objectives. Staff finding, the proposed massage parlor will be established within an existing vacant tenant space and will be maintained in a manner consistent with the C1 zoning designation.

37:44 – 38:367

The operation of a massage parlor is permitted and compatible use within the C1 zone with the approval of a conditional development permit. Provided that all conditions of approval associated with CDP number 25,001 are fully satisfied. The project is not expected to result in an adverse impact to surrounding land uses. Additionally, the proposed use is consistent with goal 3.1 of the general plan by contributing to the strengthening of an economic base and employment opportunities. Finding number six, any potential adverse effects upon the surrounding properties will be minimized to every extent practical and any remaining adverse effects shall be outweighed by the benefits conferred upon the community or neighborhood.

38:37 – 39:207

Staff finding, the conditions of approval contained herein will minimize the project's impacts. The granting of CDP number 25,001 allowing the operation of a massage parlor will potentially maintain a long term tenant and prevent vacancy within the commercial center. Furthermore the use will provide residents and visitors an option for services such as facials and massages. CDP number 25001 has been conditioned to include security measures and monitoring therefore any potential adverse effects are outweighed by the benefits conferred upon the community and neighborhoods.

39:20 – 39:571

Very good. Thank you. I didn't like ask that to be read just for the sake of killing more time. The reason was because of the the thorough analysis and the requirements under 1866 and the required point. Point. Think questions of that's staff just me. Okay. In fact, this is the time to for the public hearing. Anyone like to speak in this item? Has anyone requested to speak?

39:570

No one.

39:581

No, we haven't. Okay. Very good.

40:004

We can close the public hearing.

40:01 – 40:331

Okay. Is there a second? To close the public hearing? Second. Second? Okay. Very good. All those in favor signify by saying aye. Aye. Opposed? Any other discussion or questions you might have for the city attorney or anything before we move forward with a motion on this item? I'd like to just clarify without going too preliminary with planning. It's just what I used to do. So let me make sure we understand what we're able to do. In the zoning code, we've got three categories.

40:33 – 41:021

You got permitted uses, things that are outright permitted under the zoning code. Prohibited uses, things that we can't do under that. And then we have the conditional uses, which evaluate and establish like we're doing conditions of approval. We evaluate these requests for these applications on a case by case basis and then determine the adequacy of that and move forward on that. Am I is that the three options that we have in the code and what we have tonight to summarize conditional development permit?

41:02 – 41:291

That's generally correct, yes. Okay, very good. That's what we have to do. The last thing I want to make sure is we've got all the conditions of approval, especially from PD, to be able to do that. Our role is city train is dealing with the land use component in the conditional development permit. Not the it's not ours to determining regulatory or licensing requirements that that go along with this. Ours is

41:293

strictly the land use component. That's correct. Yes. Okay.

41:33 – 41:461

Very good. Okay. Alright. Any other questions for the city attorney? Or I'm just like talking way too much. So, Got it. Is there a, I'll entertain a motion at this time.

41:47 – 42:042

Move to determine that the project is categorically exempt pursuant to section number one five three zero one and adopt the resolution exhibit e to approve conditional development rate number 25 dash zero zero zero one based upon the findings and subjects to conditions of approval.

42:041

Okay. We have a motion. Is there a second?
