Council approves first reading of ordinance to ease rules for small warehouses
Summary
The Baldwin Park City Council on April 2 introduced Ordinance No. 1517 to revise municipal code definitions and allow small-scale warehouse uses by right in industrial zones, a change staff said would regularize many properties made nonconforming by a 2012 zoning update.
Baldwin Park — The City Council on April 2 voted 5-0 to introduce by first reading Ordinance No. 1517, an update to the Baldwin Park Municipal Code that redefines and reclassifies warehouse and wholesale uses so small-scale warehouses can operate by right in Industrial (I) and Industrial Commercial (IC) zones.
The revision splits warehouse uses into two categories — small-scale (building area under 10,000 square feet) and large-scale (greater than 10,000 square feet) — and would allow the smaller category as a permitted use while retaining a conditional use permit requirement for larger facilities.
