WHEREAS, the City of Redlands is located within the "warehouse concentration region"

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
REDLANDS AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Exemption from environmental review. The proposed General Plan
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
C\Resolutions\Res 8700-8799\Resolution No. 8739.11.2625bm.doex
Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), this proposal is exempt from CEQA review because there is no
possibility that the General Plan amendment may have a significant effect on the environment,
insofar as it would impose modified truck routes for certain warehouses and logistics distribution
facilities within the City. Additionally, if the proposal is considered a "project," the proposed
General Plan Amendment is categorically exempt under CEQA Guidelines Section 15308 (Actions
by Regulatory Agencies for Protection of the Environment), 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 State -imposed regulations on truck routes for certain
warehouses and logistics distribution facilities. Accordingly, no further environmental review is
necessary.
