Council grants one‑year extension for Bertec waste operations CUP; applicant says construction ready
Summary
The council approved a one‑year extension for a conditional use permit for a Bertec Waste Industries disposal service operations facility, the last allowable extension under city code; the applicant said internal issues have been resolved and the project is ready to move forward.
Jurupa Valley City Council approved a one‑year extension of time for Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 21006, allowing Bertec Waste Industries to extend the project expiration from August 10, 2024 to August 10, 2025.
Planning staff summarized the project — a roughly 37,025 square‑foot facility with a 25,067 sq. ft. mechanic shop and a 10,275 sq. ft. office — and explained the applicant’s justification: after the City of Riverside terminated a related contract with Bertec the company needed to reassess financing and operations. The applicant’s project manager, Gary Koons, told the council the company’s internal issues had been resolved, truck fleets recovered, and that it was ready to resume construction pending ministerial plan checks.
Council approved the requested one‑year extension (the municipal code permits a maximum total approval period, and staff said this would be the last extension). The motion passed on a voice vote with no public opposition recorded during the hearing.
Council asked the applicant to proceed with plan checks and street improvement details tied to the approved site plan and to return with any outstanding construction timelines.
