Draft Environmental Impact Report for a Proposed Warehouse Project

Public Scoping Meeting to Discuss Proposed Warehouse Project A public scoping meeting will be held on Wednesday, August 29 to discuss the project and to take public comments regarding the potential environmental impacts of the proposed RPT Centerpointe West project in the City of Moreno Valley. The public review period of the Notice of Preparation for this project is August 14 through September 13, 2012.

The proposed project includes the following applications:

• PA12-0020 proposes adding 507,720 SF to an existing 779,016 SF warehouse building for a total of 1,286,736 SF on an 18.6 acre site located at the northwest of Cactus Ave. and Graham St. This project requires the vacation of existing Joy Street between Brodiaea Ave. and Cactus Ave. (APN 297-170-067, -075, and -076);
• PA12-0021 proposes a new 607,920 SF warehouse facility on approximately 30 acres located at the northwest corner of Graham St. and Brodiaea Ave. This project requires the vacation of existing Joy Street north of Brodiaea Ave. (APN 297-170-064, -065, and -082);
• PA12-0019 for either a 164,720 SF warehouse building on 7.6 acres at the northeast corner of Cactus Ave. and Frederick St. or as an interim occupancy use as an equipment/truck trailer storage area in support of the existing/expansion of the adjacent warehouse distribution facility (APN 297-170-027). This use will require a related Zone Change (PA12-0022) from BPX to LI; and
• The project will also include a tentative parcel map(s) to facilitate the creation parcels for each of the warehouse distribution buildings noted above.

During the public review period, public agencies, interested organizations, and individuals have the opportunity to comment on the proposed project and identify those environmental issues that should be addressed further by the City of Moreno Valley in the Draft Environmental Impact Report. The August 29 public meeting will be held in the Council Chamber at City Hall, 14177 Frederick Street, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
