WHEREAS, on February 21, 2023, the City Council held a noticed public hearing at which
interested persons had an opportunity to testify in support of, or opposition to, Ordinance No. 2955.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REDLANDS DOES
ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. California Environmental Quality Act. The proposed Ordinance Text
Amendment does not require environmental review in accordance with Sections 15061(b)(3),
15308, and 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines. Pursuant to
Section 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), this proposal is an
organizational or administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical
changes in the environment, and therefore not a project. Additionally, pursuant to CEQA
Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), this proposal is exempt from CEQA review because there is no
possibility that the zoning code amendment may have a significant effect on the environment,
insofar as it would impose additional construction and operational requirements on certain
warehouse and distribution facilities within the City. Furthermore, even if the proposal is
considered a project, the proposed zoning code amendment is categorically exempt under CEQA
Guidelines Section 15308, because it is clear that it will not create an environmental impact and
the action will assure the maintenance, enhancement, or protection of the environment through the
adoption of regulations and development standards on such warehouse and distribution facilities.
Accordingly, no further environmental review is necessary.
SECTION 2. Chapter 18.156 of the Redlands Municipal Code, entitled "Development
Provisions for Specific Uses," is hereby amended to add Article XII. Warehouses and Logistics
Distribution Centers, to read as follows:
"ARTICLE XII. Warehouses and Logistics Distribution Centers
18.156.900: DEFINITIONS:

and/or consolidation of manufactured goods before their distribution to retail locations
or other warehouses. Warehouse/distribution centers are fifty thousand (50,000) square -
feet or more in gross floor area or contain six (6) or more truck docks or dock high
loading doors. They are characterized by dock high loading doors and could be on
opposing sides of the building (cross dock facility); may include grade -level loading
doors; interior clear heights a minimum of 28 to 36 feet to ceiling for the warehousing
floor area; significant movement and storage of products, materials, or equipment; may
include receiving, sorting, re -packaging, and/or re -distribution; truck activities
frequently outside of the peak hour of the adjacent street system; and need freeway
access. This definition excludes facilities owned and operated by a government agency
or any public or private utilities. Warehousing and distribution facilities include, but are
not limited to, the following types of uses:
• Warehousing distribution/high cube distribution centers
• Parcel delivery terminals or truck terminals
• Parcel sorting and distribution facilities
2
I:\Ordinances\Nos 2900-2999 in Word\2955_cleanWarehouse_dev_standards_and_CUP_required.doex
• Package allocation for delivery drivers or independent delivery contractors
• Parcel hub or high cube fulfillment center
• Freight yards or forwarding terminals
• Moving agencies
• Shipping/receiving yards
B. Warehousing, ancillary, means the use of a portion of a building for the related
storage of goods of any type by one or two businesses and used for the sale or
distribution of those goods directly to their customers. A manufacturing, assembly,
service commercial, or other type of commercial or industrial use (i.e., primary use)
manufactures and/or stores and distributes the goods or components that are produced or
contained on -site, and therefore includes the related storage of those goods or items.
Ancillary storage or warehousing is subordinate and incidental to the primary land use
(e.g., manufacturing, assembly, service commercial, or other type of primary
commercial or industrial use). Ancillary storage or warehousing may include ground
level loading doors on one or more sides of the building, or not more than five (5) dock
high loading doors on one side of the building only.
18.156.910: APPLICABILITY:
The provisions of this section shall apply to the following types of development projects:
A. New warehouse development projects that meet one of the following criteria
(note: excludes government agency facilities and public or private utility facilities).
1) Gross floor area of fifty thousand (50,000) square -feet or more; or,
2) A structure with six (6) or more truck docks or dock high loading doors
(does not include grade -level loading doors or loading spaces).
B. Development or redevelopment projects for existing or proposed warehouse
facilities involving demolition, reconstruction, repairing, or rebuilding that exceed
fifty percent (50%) of the reasonable replacement value of the existing structure
or property.
1. Estimates for this purpose shall be reviewed and approved by the building
official and the Development Services Director, or their respective
designees, and shall be based on the minimum cost of construction in
compliance with the California Building Code.
2. For the purpose of this section, "assessed value" shall mean the assessed
value of the structure as shown on the County of San Bernardino property
assessment roll in effect at the time of the occurrence of the casualty, or at
the time the repair and maintenance is first conducted.
3. Redevelopment of a property and/or building shall include the feasible
provisions of Section 18.156.930 through 18.156.960 of this Article, as
determined by the Planning Commission.

I:\Ordinances\Nos 2900-2999 in Word\2955_clean_Warehouse_dev_standards_and CUP_required.docx
C. Required Compliance. No new warehouse development project shall be
constructed, no redevelopment or reconstruction of a property for warehouse use,
and no existing warehouse shall be moved, altered, or enlarged, except in
accordance with the applicable development standards of this Article.
18.156.920: SITE LOCATION REQUIREMENT:
A. No warehouses shall be located on a project site more than one mile (5,280 feet)
from a freeway entrance/exit ramp to the Interstate Freeway System (Interstate 10
and Interstate 210). For purposes of this requirement, the linear distance shall be
measured as a radius from a freeway ramp to any part of the subject property.
18.156.930: SCREENING AND BUFFERING REQUIREMENTS:
A. Warehouse developments shall provide a solid decorative wall(s) of at least ten

condominiums, apartments, and living quarters, schools, preschools, daycare
centers, in -home daycares, hospitals, long-term care facilities, retirement and
nursing homes, community centers, places of worship, parks (excluding trails),
and dormitories. The exterior treatment of the wall(s) shall be decorative or
painted.
B. Unless physically impossible, loading docks and truck entries shall be oriented
away from abutting sensitive receptors. To the greatest extent feasible, loading
docks, truck entries, and truck drive aisles shall be located away from nearby
sensitive receptors. In making feasibility decisions, the City must comply with
existing laws and regulations and balance public safety and the site development's
potential impacts to nearby sensitive receptors. Therefore, loading docks, truck
entries, and drive aisles may be located nearby sensitive receptors at the discretion
of the Planning Commission, but any such site design shall include measures
designed to minimize overall impacts to nearby sensitive receptors.
C. Trees shall be used as part of the solid screen buffering treatment for any adjacent
residential properties or properties with sensitive receptors. Trees used for this
purpose shall be evergreen, drought -tolerant, minimum 36-inch box size, and

requirements, and shall include an evaluation of the City's streets and Truck
Routes that provide vehicular access to the Interstate Freeway System, including,
but not limited to: existing right-of-way width; roadway capacity to handle the
proposed quantity of truck trips to be generated by the proposed use (including
any road widening that may be necessary); roadway design and improvements to
handle the weight and frequency of proposed truck trips; intersection operations
to freeway ramps and level of service analysis to include the proposed truck trips;
truck turn radii at intersections; and other operational elements of the City's street
network to serve the proposed use. The TIA may be prepared by a qualified
consultant selected and directed by the City (and all consultant costs to be
reimbursed by the applicant), or by a qualified traffic consultant selected by the
applicant (and all work subject to the direction, review, and approval by the City).
C. Entry gates into the loading dock/truck court area with more than 20 loading
docks shall be positioned after a minimum of 140 feet of total available stacking
depth inside the property line (or alternatively, if 140 feet of depth is not feasible
due to site constraints, then provide 70 feet of available stacking depth for two
trucks side -by -side as an alternative design). The stacking distance shall be
increased by 70 feet for every 20 loading docks beyond 50 docks. Queuing, or
circling of vehicles, on public streets immediately pre- or post -entry to an
industrial commerce facility is strictly prohibited unless queuing occurs in a
deceleration lane or right turn lane exclusively serving the facility.
D. Prior to entitlement approval, applicants shall submit to the City, and obtain
approval of, all turning templates to verify adequate truck turning movements at
entrance and exit driveways as well as street intersections adjacent to industrial
buildings. Unless not physically possible, truck entries shall be located on

trucks shall be posted at warehouses and industrial commerce facilities along
entrances to the site and within the dock areas and shall be strictly enforced by the
facility operator (13 CCR § 2480).
5
I:\Ordinances\Nos 2900-2999 in Word\2955 clean Warehouse_dev_standards_and_CUP_required.docx
F. Signs shall be installed at all truck exit driveways directing truck drivers to the
truck route as indicated in the Truck Routing Plan to be routed to the Interstate
Freeway System.
G. Signs and drive aisle pavement markings shall clearly identify the onsite
circulation pattern to minimize unnecessary on -site vehicular travel.
H. Facility operators shall post signs in prominent locations inside and outside of the
building indicating that off -site parking for any Medium Heavy -Duty trucks,
Heavy Heavy -Duty trucks, truck trailers or cabs, and other operations -related
vehicles is strictly prohibited. City may require facility operator to post signs on
adjacent and nearby surface or residential streets indicating that off -site truck
parking is prohibited by City ordinance.
I. All signs under this Section shall be legible, durable, and weather-proof.
18.156.950: SUSTAINABLE ENERGY:
A. A minimum of ninety percent (90%) of the on -site motorized operational

B. All warehouse building roofs shall install photovoltaic (PV) solar collector system
or other form of on -site renewable energy, provided such renewable energy
source is recognized by the State of California as a renewable resource under the
Renewable Portfolio Standard Program. The renewable energy system shall be
metered separately from the nonrenewable metered power usage of the building
(if not in conflict with other applicable regulations). The renewable energy system
shall be built to generate an amount of electricity sufficient to meet the following
criteria:
1. Annualized building demand based on the approved use or, if no use is
proposed, then the demand for the most energy intensive use that could
occupy the building; and
2. Annualized demand required to charge fully electric vehicles and trucks,
assuming that all vehicles and trucks to the site are fully electric; and
3. A reasonable rate of efficiency loss over ten years.
Note: Electricity demand that exceeds the generation capacity of the on -site
renewable energy system may be obtained from off -site energy sources or
suppliers.
C. The warehouse building's rooftop that is not covered with solar panels or other
utilities shall be constructed with light colored roofing material with a solar
reflective index (SRI) in accordance with current California Energy Code
regulations. This material shall be the minimum solar reflective rating of the roof
material for the life of the building.
6
L•\Ordinances\Nos 2900-2999 in Word \2955_cleanWarehouse dev_standards_and_CUP_required.doex
D. The on -site passenger vehicle parking shall include electric vehicle (EV) ready
parking spaces in accordance with current requirements of the California Building
Code, and at least fifty percent (50%) of the required EV parking spaces shall be
equipped with working Level 2 Quick Charge EV charging stations installed and
operational, prior to building occupancy. Signage shall be installed indicating EV
charging stations and specifying that spaces are reserved for clean air/EV
vehicles. Unless superior technology is developed that would replace the EV
charging units, facility operator and any successors in interest shall be responsible
for maintaining the EV charging stations in working order for the life of the
facility.
E. Unless the owner of the facility records a covenant on the title of the underlying
property ensuring that the property cannot be used to provide chilled, cooled, or
freezer warehouse space, a conduit shall be installed during construction of the
building shell from the electrical room to all (100%) of the loading dock doors
that have potential to serve the refrigerated space. When tenant improvement
building permits are issued for any refrigerated warehouse space, electric plug-in
units shall be installed at every dock door servicing the refrigerated space to allow
transport refrigeration units (TRUs) to plug in. Truck operators with TRUs shall
be required to utilize electric plug-in units when at loading docks.
18.156.960: OPERATION AND CONSTRUCTION:
A. Cool surface treatments shall be added to all drive aisles and parking areas, or
such areas shall be constructed with a solar -reflective cool pavement such as
concrete. Solar collectors may be installed on support structures that provide
shade over parking areas to achieve minimum requirements.
B. To ensure that warehouse electrical rooms are sufficiently sized to accommodate
the potential need for additional electrical panels, either a secondary electrical
room shall be provided in the building, or the primary electrical room shall be
sized twenty-five percent (25%) larger than is required to satisfy the service
requirements of the building or the electrical gear shall be installed with the initial
construction with 25% excess demand capacity.
C. All exterior light fixtures (including but not limited to parking lot lighting, wall
fixtures, roof fixtures, light poles, etc.) visible from public right-of-way or
abutting properties shall have shielding affixed to contain illumination within the
subject property and prevent light trespass and glare overspill.
D. The facility operator shall be required to perform regular maintenance of building
structures, landscaping, and paved surfaces to ensure good physical condition and
appearance.
E. For any sites with warehouses that are abutting or adjacent to any residential
properties or properties containing sensitive receptors, any outdoor storage of
7
I:\Ordinances\Nos 2900-2999 in Word\2955_clean Warehouse_dev_standards_and CUP_required.docx
materials, high -pile storage, or any other manner of storage or staging shall not
exceed the height of the perimeter wall.
F. Additional operating conditions may be enacted for an individual Warehouse
project pursuant to a Conditional Use Permit (RMC Chapter 18.192) for the
purpose of avoiding or reducing potential off -site nuisance effects of the
warehouse facility (including but not limited to traffic, parking, noise, vibration,
air quality emissions, etc.) on nearby sensitive receptors or residential districts, or
to protect the public health, safety, or general welfare."
