Staff said the lot, located on the west side of G Street between Ninth Street and Case Road, is intended to accommodate additional Public Works vehicles as the department’s fleet and equipment needs grow. The report cited Government Code Section 65402 as the authority for a General Plan conformity determination and said the project is categorically exempt from CEQA under Section 15332 (infill development).

Sylvia Garcia, planning staff, told commissioners that a separate administrative development-plan review is being processed for the parking-lot layout and that tonight’s action only determines whether the land use is consistent with the General Plan. She said the lot sits across the street from the existing Public Works yard at 1015 South G Street and that the expansion supports municipal operations and downtown investment goals.

Questions from commissioners focused on operational details that will be resolved during administrative review. Brian Hill of Public Works said the gate will be setback from the street, staff arrivals are typically one or two vehicles at a time, and a pedestrian crosswalk with a rectangular rapid-flashing beacon (push-button style) is proposed to improve pedestrian safety. Hill said the parking area is intended for regular-size work trucks (pickups), not oversized vehicles, and that a shoulder widening will reduce the risk of queueing onto the main travel lane.

Chair Jo Hammond called for a motion; the commission voted 5-0 to adopt Resolution 25-25. Staff said final sidewalk, landscaping and security-gate details will be reviewed administratively and returned to commissioners if changes to land use are required.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Planning Commission - October 1, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Planning Commission voted 5-0 to approve a General Plan conformity determination for a 0.72-acre parking expansion for the city Public Works maintenance yard on G Street; staff said detailed site-plan review and safety measures (sidewalks, landscaping, pedestrian crossing) will be handled administratively.","taxTitle","Perris, Riverside County, California","taxId",4294,"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},6427895,"Perris planning panel backs rezoning to site future Green Valley fire station",1495,448000,1943000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5898928-a2a44e23145e2bc76c86d1d2e31acd99&start=448&end=1943","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5898928-a2a44e23145e2bc76c86d1d2e31acd99/thumbnail_448000.jpg","/articles/6427895/Perris/Riverside-County/California/Perris-planning-panel-backs-rezoning-to-site-future-Green-Valley-fire-station","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6427895-2e45293f0312d220859c76426db3b97e/orig.mp4?Expires=1775497514&Signature=SBMWLSBPqmGzRKj4qa1GNFFzP0pgHmSRMHVE7MxL8gh2kjBUih6QaoAxYmxAqUcEXcSfRDBijTuepk2WNjbLVnzQ1dJocovP-t0W44M37ITixoVJMp3wMFwfAzHRZ8vutid9zPzmJXKnMeFJ5cY0orywE4WGJl0MWAZ5LFo7UwhcZ0PFwA66Wpmor6-CUsVWPQdHsbhzSqVoAh4ZfJoWg4LGAWTXsiDymRfaquZJNygGfHuwD3u8X-Hr2DJMqyihjEsZ8d5g0-rRJf-kZ87NIPlKLgFGVgcXxZ4HFb9R-LQcR0D7ZiqKBbGtaurSiQeX3vs7cxbn2zODJdNXlecNzA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Perris Planning Commission voted 5-0 Oct. 1 to recommend that the City Council adopt a CEQA addendum and approve Specific Plan Amendment 25-00001 to rezone about 3.4 acres in Planning Area 57A of the Green Valley Specific Plan from open space to public facility to facilitate a future fire station.

Staff said the site, at the northeast corner of Murrieta Road and Watson Road, was identified previously in the Green Valley plan and was formally transferred to the city on May 13, 2025. Nathan Perez, planning staff, told commissioners the change is intended to facilitate construction of a station the specific plan had anticipated.

Perez said the city is recommending adoption of the fifth addendum to the previously certified environmental impact report and a finding the amendment conforms with the city’s General Plan pursuant to Government Code Section 65402 and CEQA Guidelines sections 15162 and 15163. “This concludes my presentation. I’m here to answering any questions. And just to let you know, this is a city sponsored project,” Perez said.

Commissioners asked for details about offsite work, school proximity and noise. Brad Brown, a city project representative, said additional design work would be required once funding is available, including widening Murrieta Road to accommodate fire truck turning radii and completing sewer and water connections. Brown said noise and siren use were discussed with Riverside County fire personnel and that crews “really won't use the sirens unless absolutely necessary, like, when they get to the intersections or things like that.”

Brown also described site circulation intended to reduce backup beeper noise: a circular driveway with two driveways so engines can exit directly onto Murrieta Road without reversing near residences or the planned school. He said only the western half of the 3.4-acre site is expected to be developed initially and that the conceptual plan anticipates an approximate 170-foot setback between the station and the school.

Commissioner Jimenez, who said she previously worked at an elementary school, asked about sound impacts on students and sought assurance that siting and operations considered trauma-sensitive approaches. “It is so distracting the way the sound carries ... that sound can reescalate even for adults that have had traumatic experience,” Jimenez said. Brown and staff said minimizing siren use near schools and having the circular vehicle circulation were among measures considered in the addendum and conceptual site plan.

Staff emphasized that the rezoning decision is limited to land-use conformity and that final building elevations and detailed design will proceed through administrative review and the Public Safety Committee. Perez said the project was identified through prior public-safety planning involving city staff and Cal Fire as the most suitable location to serve southern Perris.

A motion to recommend adoption of Resolution 25-23 (adopting the fifth addendum to the Green Valley EIR and approving Specific Plan Amendment 25-00001 to rezone approximately 3.4 acres in Planning Area 57A from open space to public facility) was moved and seconded and carried 5-0.

The commission’s recommendation now goes to the City Council, and staff said further design, funding and administrative approvals will be required before construction can begin.","The Perris Planning Commission voted 5-0 to recommend a rezoning and CEQA addendum that would reclassify 3.4 acres in the Green Valley specific plan to allow a future fire station, with staff noting traffic, utilities and noise-mitigation details will be handled during later administrative review.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6427877,"Planning commission names ad hoc members to screen development applications",876,2772000,3648000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5898928-a2a44e23145e2bc76c86d1d2e31acd99&start=2772&end=3648","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5898928-a2a44e23145e2bc76c86d1d2e31acd99/thumbnail_2772000.jpg","/articles/6427877/Perris/Riverside-County/California/Planning-commission-names-ad-hoc-members-to-screen-development-applications","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6427877-8ba1ad8d3a2bb95057a831d9b4f3fb96/orig.mp4?Expires=1775497514&Signature=U7LdS8GsJXOHA1eBgJbhkF05KZgBJGu2HlF4xKi3haTK6SLxVoRJWl~UQSedkcZ~1rL7aVAbJmcWuHUkjbucbc6C31EfIKAmYnxa9BXiiUOqV9rgZh-0KyJkdGt-dr7YUq68HvR6vAuSYkCN1YMPoM6u7vYnhsOj0ZlMF4nsTUYpoJ9EhLvwkv-62T7fsGLpWeP3nPtaMEdLmcSMIw5MCwltvXf3iY~qVRugqwUZMS8OFi7b~-LjinbhNy0ibliSWCWmJtMCcBu2NEorFbln7jYGdmDGfkKW8k7mmu4Ncl2FWHJszDyNr32WXoQPlM1uFCx912lfxCP9hJeD4Gty2g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Perris Planning Commission appointed two primary members and an alternate to its ad hoc committee on Oct. 1 to assist with early-stage project review.
