2. Conditional Use Permit (CUP 000395-2024)
Project Address: 1350 East Philadelphia Street
Project Applicant: Heady Design
Project Planner: Ata Khan
Council District: Council District 3
Request for modification to an existing Conditional Use Permit for an existing trucking facility to modify conditions of approval to establish vehicular access to an adjacent lot in the City of Chino as well as update other conditions of approval related to hours of operation, the baseline number of trucks, etc.
The City of Pomona, as lead agency, has conducted an environmental review on the proposed project per the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Pursuant to the provisions of CEQA (Public Resources Code, Section 21084 et. seq.), the guidelines include a list of classes of projects which have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and which shall, therefore, be exempt from the provisions of CEQA. The Planning Commission will consider adopting a Categorical Exemption in compliance with Article 19, Section 15301, (Class 1-Existing Facilities) in that the project is an existing development with no proposed expansions; the use of the existing driveway to access an adjacent parcel does not represent an expansion of the use, but a formal condition to establish circulation patterns on site. The proposed project described above hereby meets the guidelines for a Categorical Exemption. Therefore, no further environmental review is required.
Recommendation:
The Planning Division recommends the Planning Commission approve the request as conditioned by Staff in the draft Resolution.
