Street vacation No. 199 (Domestic Avenue)
Staff presented Street Vacation No. 199 as a request to vacate two excess portions of right-of-way along the western terminus of Domestic Avenue to incorporate the remnant areas into adjacent park space and residential tracts. Staff cited California Government Code section 65402(a) and recommended the Planning Commission find the street vacation in conformity with the City’s General Plan and exempt from CEQA review under the general rule (CEQA Guidelines §15061(b)(3)). The commission moved to adopt Resolution No. 1708 to determine that Street Vacation No. 199 is in conformity with the General Plan; the motion was made by Commissioner Wells and seconded by Commissioner Sanson. The motion carried.

Street vacation No. 198 (Wabash Avenue)
Staff described Street Vacation No. 198 as an unimproved dedication north of East Sunset Drive North that is a remnant of an original road alignment and not needed for present or prospective public use. Staff again cited Government Code section 65402(a) and recommended a conformity finding and CEQA exemption under §15061(b)(3). Applicant Marcela LaVestida spoke briefly, stating the intent to develop the parcel for custom homes and noting a prior, adjacent street vacation had been completed more than a decade earlier. The Planning Commission moved to adopt Resolution No. 1709 to determine that Street Vacation No. 198 is in conformity with the General Plan; the motion was moved by Commissioner Stanson and seconded by Commissioner Elliot. The motion carried.

Conditional Use Permit No. 1210 (wine tasting room) — 570 Nevada Street, Suite M
Staff presented Conditional Use Permit No. 1210, which would allow ancillary wine‑tasting and retail sales at an existing wine production facility operating under a Type 2 winegrower’s ABC license. Staff noted the site’s Commercial‑Industrial designation and the East Valley Corridor Specific Plan zoning, and concluded the proposed use is consistent with the General Plan and zoning. The applicant, Patrick York, said the tasting operation would occupy about 390 square feet of the unit, operate limited hours (retail 10 a.m.–2 p.m. Mon–Wed; tasting/social hours Thu–Fri evenings and Sun midday), expect one employee per shift and a typical maximum of 15 patrons at any one time, and comply with State ABC rules.

Staff recommended approval and provided a draft resolution (Resolution No. 1706) with standard conditions. Commissioner Stanson moved to adopt Resolution No. 1706 approving CUP No. 1210 based on the staff findings; Commissioner Wells seconded. The commission voted in favor and the motion carried.

Public comment and written input
For the street vacations staff said the commission received several written comments raising questions about historic resources; staff advised that the parcels are not historic‑designated and that any future development proposals would allow the commission to revisit those issues when entitlement applications are filed. For CUP No. 1210 staff and the applicant reported no written opposition and no public commenters opposed; the applicant answered commissioner questions about access, employee levels and occupancy and confirmed compliance with ABC licensing requirements.

Next steps
Resolutions approving the street vacations are conformity determinations; City Council action is required for final street vacations. The wine tasting CUP approval allows the applicant to pursue final permits, ABC clearances and any building permits needed for the interior fit-out.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City of Redlands - Planning Commission - Jun 24, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","At its June 24 meeting the Planning Commission approved two street‑vacation conformity determinations and granted a conditional use permit for a wine tasting room; motions and staff findings are summarized below.","taxTitle","Redlands City, San Bernardino County, California","taxId",12807,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6523148,"Planning commission approves 193,469-sq-ft warehouse at 301 Tennessee with added landscaping condition",5130,1599000,6729000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5065599-3b669e628745d97a6c9da42ee4631614&start=1599&end=6729","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5065599-3b669e628745d97a6c9da42ee4631614/thumbnail_1599000.jpg","/articles/6523148/Redlands-City/San-Bernardino-County/California/Planning-commission-approves-193469-sq-ft-warehouse-at-301-Tennessee-with-added-landscaping-condition","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6523148-3312900d185d47cfe12cb6b90f8ac1ba/orig.mp4?Expires=1775080983&Signature=V9B7BCG0ptYiMsBI2n-nRnmYd3cGKoKMGFy2m3EnLg42p~HE5qlgw~m6rhCLWF5Ywt3v9FPmXTAsumZLXD-eD7FgI-cT8IzXow0W9LNdGtjYjLJxt6Ci~MZyYgjOuGxqdE8kTNRWfSSVdc3UQtvIycX2t4wFWHvqXLKQJLV6VwAQdO7Oh6w5I2f3zsxRNJQT09ygsO8-P5H8kfsgIYd7JxCX12vA5boBXOnR3qJP5JJQbgpljCEXYY2HeeGiHmH7bfMpDTn2Ch00Ck8vHGQoK-zcfUe3YzzPLkdawYn4BxingeL6KTSKfGe9-e5DFX6XOVOcJTSm-TPuDpeoe9QcZg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Redlands Planning Commission on June 24 approved a conditional use permit and related approvals allowing construction of a 193,469-square-foot warehouse and distribution facility at 301 Tennessee Street, with an added condition directing the developer to increase tree/shade coverage in the rear parking area subject to review and approval by the Development Services director.

The commission voted to adopt Resolution No. 1707, which includes a mitigated negative declaration, a mitigation monitoring and reporting program, approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 1206, Commission Review and Approval No. 975, and a lot merger. The motion passed with three commissioners voting in favor and one opposed.

The project replaces an existing La-Z-Boy-era industrial building with a ~39-foot-tall, modern logistics facility on roughly 10.9 acres. Staff described the proposal as a reduction from an earlier, larger submission: \"The reduced project is a 193,469 square foot warehouse ... with 8,000 square feet of office space,\" staff member Sean Riley told the commission. Riley said the earlier, denied proposal was slightly larger and that the current plan has fewer docks and no cold-storage component than the original submittal.

Prologis, the applicant, said the design prioritizes screening and safety. \"Trucks will enter from Tennessee Street, exit onto Kansas, head north to park and then to the freeway,\" Nicole Torstedt, Prologis, said, noting the company will preserve mature trees and add new drought-tolerant plantings. Environmental consultant Connie Dobreva summarized the city's environmental review, saying the prior mitigated negative declaration covers the current, reduced project and that construction-related mitigation measures and tribal/cultural monitoring requirements are included.

Commissioners and public speakers focused on truck routing, school safety, air quality and enforceability of operational conditions such as idling limits. Redlands Christian Schools principal Chris Winters told commissioners the school supports the project because it should remove truck parking and queuing from State Street near the school: \"Taking the trucks off of State Street ... will be a huge help to parents picking up kids,\" he said. Several other community members, trade representatives and a former councilmember spoke in favor; other commenters urged caution about traffic and cumulative air quality impacts.

Staff said the project must comply with the city’s warehouse ordinance (Ordinance No. 2955), which requires conditional use permits for large warehouses and sets routing, stacking and dock-orientation standards. Riley said the project meets the ordinance’s location requirement (site is within a half mile of a freeway entrance) and that the applicant agreed to limit truck access to Tennessee and Kansas streets. The staff report also adds a project-specific AB 98 requirement: because a house on Kansas Street will be demolished, the applicant must fund construction of two low- to moderate-income units (a 2:1 replacement requirement) within three years of paying the fee.

During deliberations commissioners asked for enforceable mechanisms to limit off‑site impacts. Staff said enforcement would be complaint-driven and routed through code enforcement; if conditions explicitly bind the property owner the city can pursue code-enforcement remedies. The commission added a condition directing staff and the applicant to increase shade-producing trees in the rear parking/vehicle area, with the final landscaping plan to be reviewed and approved by the Development Services director.

The motion to approve was made by Commissioner Stanson and seconded by Commissioner Wells. The vote as recorded in the hearing was: Stanson — yes; Wells — yes; Vice Chair Inslee — opposed; Commissioner Elliott — yes. The resolution and conditions of approval, as amended on the record to add the additional landscaping requirement, are included in the project file.

The project is subject to a Mitigated Negative Declaration previously prepared for an earlier version of the project; staff advised the commission that no recirculation of the MND was required because the reduced project did not introduce new or substantially different environmental effects. Mitigation measures included monitoring for tribal cultural resources, archaeological procedures, geotechnical measures and construction-phase air-quality controls.

Next steps: the applicant will submit final construction plans and a building permit application, address the mitigation monitoring program, and provide the landscaping revisions for Development Services director review. The AB 98 housing replacement payments and the lot merger must be completed as part of the building-permit phase schedule outlined in the conditions of approval.

The commission’s action focuses on the discretionary findings required for the conditional use permit and commission review; commissioners noted that broader policy questions about warehouse locations were previously resolved by the City Council when it adopted the warehouse ordinance and the map of eligible sites.

The public record for this item includes the staff report, the MND and mitigation monitoring program, socioeconomic cost-benefit materials, traffic study exhibits and written correspondence received prior to the hearing. The developer provided renderings, site plans, truck-routing exhibits and a landscape plan.","The Redlands Planning Commission voted 3–1 to approve a conditional use permit and related approvals for a 193,469-square-foot warehouse at 301 Tennessee Street, requiring the developer to add perimeter/parking-lot shade landscaping to be reviewed and approved by the Development Services director.","actionData","errors"]
