City Council Agenda Item Report Agenda Item No. COV-306-2020 Submitted by: Daniel Wall Submitting Department: Public Works Meeting Date: September 1, 2020 SUBJECT Amendment to Municipal Code Chapter 26 - Zoning Map Recommendation: A. Find that the proposed action is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review, because it is a continuing administrative activity that will not result in any direct or indirect physical changes in the environment, and therefore does not constitute a “project” as defined by CEQA Guidelines Section 15378, and to the extent the property owner seeks to engage in actual physical construction or development, such would be subject to separate and independent CEQA review and analysis; and B. Introduce and conduct first reading of Ordinance No. 1270 amending the Zoning Map in Chapter 26 of the Municipal Code to include the properties located at 2328, and at 2332/2334 E. Vernon Avenue in the Housing Overlay Zone, and direct staff to schedule second reading and adoption for the September 15, 2020 City Council meeting. Background: On July 7, 2020, the City Council conducted a public hearing to consider adoption of Ordinance No. 1270 (Attachment 1) amending the Zoning Map in Chapter 26 of the Municipal Code to include the properties located at 2328, and at 2332/2334 E. Vernon Avenue in the Housing Overlay Zone (Attachment 2). The hearing was continued to July 21, 2020 to provide staff the opportunity to present information as to why these properties were not included in the Housing Overlay Zone when the map was last modified in 2015 (Attachment 3). Introduction of the Ordinance failed by a 2 -2 vote (Mayor Pro Tem Ybarra could not participate in the matter and recused herself from voting on this item). In a conversation, Former Director Samuel Kevin Wilson indicated that the Housing Overlay Zone was created to allow for the construction of the Vernon Village Apartments and that the subject properties were not included in the Zone because their continued residential use would be grandfathered under the zoning code being adopted at the time. A review of the April 7, 2015 staff report adopting the current Zoning Map indicates that staff had concerns "… with compatibility issues with the introduction of any housing when industrial prevail (sic) uses throughout Vernon. Because of the range of uses allowed in the Industrial zone, at any time a new industrial use could be established that might pose hazards to residential uses. The Housing Overlay gives the City the ability to assess any proposed housing development application on a case-by-case basis and only apply the overlay to properties where it makes good sense to do so, such as the recent Meta Housing development adjacent to existing residential uses in the city of Maywood.” Those concerns would not have applied to the subject properties located at 2328, and at 2332/2334 E. Vernon Avenue as, at the time, they were being used exclusively as residences, a use that is currently an allowed (grandfathered), non-conforming use. These properties are adjacent to Vernon City School, and are across the street from the 10 City-owned homes on Furlong Place (Attachment 4). Given the residential and educational uses of the surrounding properties and the historic residential use of the subject properties, there is minimal potential for conflicts between existing residential and industrial uses at this location. Based on a conversation with staff from Bank of America, banks do not lend on residential properties that are outside of a residential zone. This means that if these properties were to be sold without Housing Overlay Zoning, a buyer would not be able to obtain a residential mortgage and that these properties would likely be converted to a nonresidential use. On July 21, 2020, during the continued Public Hearing from the July 7 meeting, the City Council raised concerns about the compatibility of the proposed zoning change with the General Plan and the ordinance failed to be approved in a two to two vote. Staff is bringing this item back to the City Council in order to address questions that were raised about making the amendments to the Zoning Map in the context of the General Plan. At the previous City Council meeting there had been discussion about the precedence of the General Plan versus the Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 26 of the Vernon Municipal Code). This is addressed on page 12 of the Introduction Section of the General Plan: “The Zoning Ordinance is the governing land use law for the City…” and again in Section 2.4 of the Land Use Element of the General Plan: “2.4 Relationship of Land Use Policy to the Zoning Ordinance The Zoning Ordinance is the primary implementation tool for the Land Use Element. Both the Element and the Ordinance describe the distribution and intensity limits for development. Whereas the Land Use Element sets forth the broad policies for future development, the Zoning Ordinance provides specific detail, enforcement mechanisms, development standards, and provides for deviations through Conditional Use Permits, Variances, and amendments to the Zoning Ordinance.” This establishes that the Zoning Ordinance has precedence over the General Plan and that the General Plan can be deviated from through amendments to the Zoning Ordinance. The General Plan also establishes the goals for land use in the City and a goal that is stated multiple times is the preservation of existing housing. Page 46 of the Housing Element in the General Plan: “…the City wants to conserve and preserve all existing 31 housing units in the City.” And Section 5.1 on page 47 of the Housing Element in the General Plan: “The major focus of housing policy in Vernon is to preserve the existing housing stock in the City and to ensure that existing housing in the City is well maintained.” And Policy 1.3 on page 49 of the Housing Element in the General Plan: “Continued Appropriateness: The City's primary housing goal is to preserve the existing housing units. The City is committed to mitigating residential displacement impacts, should they occur.” And Policy 2.1 on page 50 of the Housing Element in the General Plan: “Provide for the retention of existing residential units in the City that are economically and physically sound.” And again on page 51 of the Housing Element in the General Plan: “GOAL H-2: Maintain all existing dwelling units within the City. POLICY H-2.1: Provide for the retention of existing residential units in the City that are economically and physically sound.” The preservation of existing housing was and continues to be important to the continued existence of the City of Vernon. When the General Plan was last updated there were 31 housing units in the City of Vernon. Twenty-six of those were owned by the City and five were privately owned. Of the five privately owned units in existence at that time, only three remain housing today. The other two are currently vacant and slated to be demolished to make room for a warehouse. In order to help ensure that the three remaining housing units are preserved, it is important that residential financing be available for future residential purchasers or for future capital maintenance. Ordinance No. 1270 revises the Zoning Map in Chapter 26 of the Vernon Municipal Code to include the properties located at 2328, and at 2332/2334 E. Vernon Avenue in the Housing Overlay Zone. Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 26.6.6-3, the public hearing was legally noticed by publishing in the Los Angeles Wave, posting the notice on the City Hall posting board and website on August 20, 2020 and mailing public hearing notices to properties within a 300 foot radius of the subject property on August 20, 2020 (Attachment 5).

Vernon Avenue in the Housing Overlay Zone, and direct staff to schedule second reading and adoption for the July 21, 2020 City Council meeting. Background: The properties located at 2328, and at 2332/2334 E. Vernon Avenue are currently used exclusively as residences. The residential use of these properties preceded the the current zoning code and as such this use is currently an allowed, non-conforming use. The owner of these properties has requested that the property be rezoned to reflect the current residential use. At present, residential development is only allowed in the Housing (H) Overlay Zone which was created to accommodate housing at limited and specific areas of the City. The Housing Overlay Zone was specifically created to allow for the construction of the Vernon Village Park Apartments and this is the only property that currently has this zoning designation. The only other privately owned housing In Vernon is located at 2328, and at 2332/2334 E. Vernon Avenue. Designating these properties to be in the Housing Overlay Zone can help preserve their residential use. The existing residence at 2328 E. Vernon, built in 1985, is 35 years-old, and the residence at 2332/2334 E. Vernon, built in 1966, is 54 years-old. These properties are adjacent to Vernon City School, and are across the street from the 10 City-owned homes on Furlong Place. Given the residential and educational uses of the surrounding properties and the historic residential use of the subject properties, there is minimal potential for conflicts between existing residential and industrial uses at this location.

VERNON GENERAL PLAN INTRODUCTION Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 1 INTRODUCTION VERNON – FOUNDING OF THE CITY AND ESTABLISHING ITS MISSION The City of Vernon was founded in 1905 as an industrial city, and it remains so today. This General Plan reflects the long history and continues the City’s mission of maintaining Vernon as an ideal location for industry in Southern California. At the turn of the twentieth century, the lands now comprising Vernon were largely farmland. However, the location south of downtown Los Angeles and the presence of major rail lines led influential businessmen and property owners to encourage railroad companies to run spur lines into the adjacent farmlands. These rail extensions enabled the creation of an “exclusively industrial” city. James J. and Thomas Furlong and John B. Leonis led the city formation effort, and Vernon incorporated in 1905. Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 2 Although the presence of the rail lines facilitated industrial development, the process was slow. A few new industrial businesses located in Vernon during the colorful period between incorporation and Prohibition Period of the 1920s. Other businesses located in the City during this period, such as Doyle’s bar, which employed 37 bartenders and hosted an arena where 20 world championship boxing matches were held. Vernon also had a ballpark for the Vernon Tigers, which won Pacific Coast League championships on multiple occasions . By the 1920s, Vernon was attracting large stockyards and meatpacking facilities, including slaughtering operations. While the stockyards have vanished, meat processing remains a signature business in the City. The Farmer John’s facility, with its iconic pig mural, processes pork products, including the famous Dodger Dogs enjoyed by baseball fans. Refrigerated food storage began as an outgrowth of the early meat packing and processing activities and is now a significant activity as well. Vernon farmland along the Los Angeles River, 1926 Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 3 To provide for the service requirements of these activities, including the electrical demands of the cold storage and refrigerated facilities, in the early 1930s the City began building municipal water supply and distribution facilities, as well as its own electrical power plant, which remains in operation. The capability of the City to provide these two critical services at a relatively low cost continues to be a competitive advantage for Vernon in attracting industry. During the 1920s and ‘30s, Vernon became the location of choice for many heavy industrial plants, including steel, aluminum, paper, and glass producers. Automobile assembly, canning, and other manufacturing operations also were established in the City in this period. As economic conditions have changed over the decades, however, many of these large- scale industrial operations have relocated out of Southern California or even out of the country. Los Angeles Union Stock Yards in Vernon, 1937 Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 4 The focus of businesses has shifted to smaller, more specialized manufacturing, processing, and storage operations. The City’s business-friendly environment, competitive-cost utilities, (largely due to the recent completion of the Malburg Generating Station), and key location for trucking and rail transport continue to position Vernon as an ideal location for industrial uses. VISION FOR THE FUTURE As Vernon enters the twenty-first century, its mission and character remains unchanged. For the foreseeable future, Vernon will continue to be an almost totally industrial city, with limited retail commercial and food service operations to support the large day-time business population, and few residences. City policy, land use restrictions, and limited land availability will allow Vernon to continue its mission to attract new, highly specialized industrial businesses. As noted in the City’s 1992 General Plan, national economic and environmental regulations have resulted in the shift of many types of industrial operations to other areas of the world. These forces have affected the type and character of industrial operations in Vernon, as they have elsewhere in the United States. Technological advances, environmental regulations, the cost of labor and raw or processed materials, and the cost of energy and petroleum products necessitate Vernon Potteries, 1931 Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 5 continuing change in Vernon’s industrial operations and in the types of new industries desiring to locate in the City. Together with the aging of both private development and the public infrastructure, these factors require that a framework for guiding future growth and development in the community be developed. This General Plan addresses the continuing change, growth, and development of Vernon over the next two decades and provides a public policy statement regarding the future of the City. PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF THE PLAN Adopted by the City Council and available to all businesses, property owners, and others with an interest in the community, the General Plan is available for public review at all times. The Plan complies with the requirement by the State of California that all cities prepare and adopt a comprehensive, long-range plan to serve as a guide for the future. The Plan contains the goals, policies, and explanatory detail about issues important to the future of Vernon. Plan policies address land use (including housing), infrastructure, public safety, resources, and noise within topic-related chapters, or “elements”. These elements are: Land Use Element Infrastructure Element Safety Element Natural Resources Element Noise Element Housing Element General Plan policies and programs are supported by several key documents, listed below. While not technically a part of the Plan, each contributes to the ability of the City officials and staff — as well as the public — to understand the Plan and carry out its mandates. These documents may be updated, modified, or replaced over time, and readers should seek the current version for reference. These additional documents are: Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) and Monitoring Plan for the General Plan Implementation Plan Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 6 Five-Year Capital Improvements Program Urban Water Management Plan Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) Multi-hazard Functional Plan Other documents may be prepared over time to support implementation of the General Plan policies or as may be directed by the State Legislature. These should be reviewed for additional detail regarding various proposals contained in the General Plan. PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT IN DEVELOPING THE GENERAL PLAN As part of the General Plan program, the City undertook a public outreach program to identify issues and establish a new General Plan policy foundation. The outreach program included a City mailer, scoping meeting, and public hearings. The City distributed a mailer to property and business owners in Vernon regarding the General Plan. The mailer asked the Vernon business community to identify issues that can be addressed by the General Plan. Comments returned to the City were recognized in developing the General Plan. Those attending the scoping session (held in accord with the requirements of CEQA) were also given the opportunity to comment on the Public Review Daft of the Plan and the Zoning Ordinance. Prior to adoption of the General Plan, the Draft General Plan and associated Environmental Impact Report were circulated for public review and comment. Public hearings were conducted before the Vernon City Council. RELATIONSHIP OF VERNON GENERAL PLAN TO STATE REQUIREMENTS FOR PLANS This General Plan contains six elements, as well as a comprehensive Implementation Plan. These elements relate to the seven elements mandated by State law as follows: Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 7 Table I-1 Relationship of Vernon General Plan to Mandated State Elements Vernon General Plan Elements State Required Elements Land Use Land Use Circulation and Infrastructure Circulation Safety Public Safety Noise Noise Natural Resources Open Space Conservation Housing Housing RELATED PLANS AND PROGRAMS State law places the General Plan atop the hierarchy of land use planning regulations, although, as a Charter City, Vernon’s Zoning Ordinance is its governing law as to land use. The General Plan provides guidance to the City Council in enacting ordinances relating to zoning, land use, public improvements, and development programs. Also, regional governmental agencies, such as the Southern California Association of Governments and the South Coast Air Quality Management District, have been established in recognition of the fact that planning issues extend beyond the boundaries of individual cities. Efforts to address regional planning issues such as air quality, transportation, and housing needs have resulted in the adoption of regional plans. The policies Vernon adopts are affected by these plans. The following paragraphs describe ordinances, plans, and programs which should be considered in association with the General Plan in development and planning decisions. Federal Plans and Programs National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System As part of a multi-pronged effort to improve the quality of water resources nationwide, the federal government authorized the State Regional Water Quality Control Board and its regional offices such as the Los Angeles Regional Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 8 Water Quality Control Board to set up programs to implement National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) goals. Under the NPDES Stormwater Permit issued to the County of Los Angeles and Vernon as a co-permittee, most new development projects in the City are required to incorporate measures to minimize pollutant levels in stormwater runoff. Compliance is required at the time that construction permits are issued, as well as over the long term through periodic inspections. National Flood Insurance Program The Federal Emergency Management Agency administers the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The NFIP provides federal flood insurance subsidies and federally financed loans for eligible property owners in flood-prone areas. Vernon has no mapped flood hazard areas. Clean Water Act Congress passed the Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972 and the Clean Water Act (CWA) of 1977 to provide for the restoration and maintenance of the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the nation’s lakes, streams, and coastal waters. Primary authority for the implementation and enforcement of the CWA (33 U.S.C. 1251) now rests with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and, to a lesser extent, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. In addition to the measures authorized before 1972, the CWA implements a variety of programs, including: federal effluent limitations and state water quality standards; permits for the discharge of pollutants and dredged and fill materials into navigable waters; and enforcement mechanisms. Section 404 of the CWA is the principal federal program that regulates activities affecting the integrity of wetlands. California State Plans and Programs California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) was adopted by the state legislature in 1970 in response to a public mandate for thorough environmental analysis of projects impacting the environment. The provisions of the law and environmental review procedure are described in the CEQA Law and Guidelines. CEQA is the instrument for ensuring that environmental impacts of local development projects are Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 9 appropriately assessed and mitigated, and if not fully mitigated, ensuring that project benefits to the community are substantial. The Department of Community Services reviews projects for conformance with CEQA. California Noise Insulation Standards (Title 24) In 1974, the California Commission on Housing and Community Development adopted noise insulation standards for residential buildings (Title 24, Part 2, California Code of Regulations). Title 24 establishes standards for interior room noise (attributable to outside noise sources). The regulations also specify that acoustical studies must be prepared whenever a residential building or structure is proposed to be located near an existing or adopted freeway route, expressway, parkway, major street, thoroughfare, rail line, rapid transit line, or industrial noise source, and where such noise source or sources create an exterior CNEL (or Ldn) of 60 dB or greater. Such acoustical analysis must demonstrate that the residence has been designed to limit intruding noise to an interior CNEL (or Ldn) of at least 45 dB. The Department of Community Services enforces Title 24. Seismic Hazards Mapping Act California’s 1990 Seismic Hazards Mapping Act requires the State Geologist to compile maps identifying and describing seismic hazard zones throughout California. Guidelines prepared by the State Mining and Geology Board identify the responsibilities of state and local agencies in the review of development within seismic hazard zones. Development on a site that has been designated as a seismic hazard zone requires a geotechnical report, and local agency consideration of the policies and criteria established by the Mining and Geology Board. Over the years, the program has expanded to include mapping of seismic-related hazards such as liquefaction- and landslide-prone areas. The Safety Element discusses seismic hazards associated with faults and those identified on state seismic hazard maps. Vernon contains only liquefaction-prone areas. The Safety Element contains a map identifying these areas. AB 32 Assembly Bill 32, the Global Warming Solutions Act (passed in 2006), sets the target of reducing emissions of greenhouse gases statewide to 1990 levels by 2020. The bill assigned the task of coming up with a scoping plan for this reduction to the Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 10 California Air Resources Board (CARB). This plan, which CARB’s board approved in December 2008, has a range of greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction actions which include direct regulations, alternative compliance mechanisms, monetary and non-monetary incentives, voluntary actions, market-based mechanisms such as a cap-and-trade system, and an AB 32 cost of implementation fee regulation to fund the program. SB 375 Senate Bill 375 (2008) takes aim at reducing the single largest source of greenhouse gases in California—emissions from passenger vehicles—by working to reduce vehicle miles traveled. The law prompts California regions to work together to lower these emissions, and requires the integration of planning processes for transportation, land use, and housing. SB 375 requires CARB to develop regional reduction targets for automobiles and light trucks GHG emissions. The regions, in turn, are tasked with creating “sustainable communities strategies,” which combine transportation and land use elements to achieve the emissions reduction target, if feasible. Vernon is cooperating with these efforts. The Gateway Cities Council of Governments, comprised of 26 local cities including Vernon, completed a Subregional Sustainable Communities Strategy, which is a part of the SCAG Sustainable Communities Strategy. Vernon is also part of the larger Southern California Association of Governments, or SCAG, and as such participates in the development and implementation of the Sustainable Communities Strategy for the SCAG region. Regional and County Level Plans and Programs SCAG Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide The Southern California Association of Governments undertakes regional planning for the six-county SCAG region of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Imperial, and Ventura counties. SCAG’s efforts focus on developing regional strategies to minimize traffic congestion, protect environmental quality, and provide adequate housing. The Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide sets forth broad goals intended to be implemented by participating local and regional jurisdictions and the South Coast Air Quality Management District. SCAG has adopted companion documents to the Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide, most notably the Regional Transportation Plan (see below). Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 11 Congestion Management Plan The Congestion Management Plan (CMP) is a program adopted by the state legislature and approved by the voters in 1990 through Proposition 111. As a new approach to addressing congestion concerns, the CMP was created for the following purposes: To link land use, transportation, and air quality decisions To develop a partnership among transportation decision-makers on devising appropriate transportation solutions that include all modes of travel To propose transportation projects which are eligible to compete for state gas tax funds The Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) is responsible for preparing the County’s CMP. Metro is required by state law to monitor local implementation of all CMP elements. Local jurisdictions are required to monitor arterial congestion levels, monitor transit services along certain corridors, and implement an adopted trip reduction ordinance and land use analysis program. Regional Transportation Plan The Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) is a component of the Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide prepared by SCAG to address regional issues, goals, objectives, and policies for the Southern California region into the early part of the 21st century. The RTP, which SCAG periodically updates to address changing conditions in the Southland, has been developed with active participation from local agencies throughout the region, elected officials, the business community, community groups, private institutions, and private citizens. The RTP sets broad goals for the region, and provides strategies to reduce problems related to congestion and mobility. In recognition of the close relationship between the traffic and air quality issues, the assumptions, goals, and programs contained in the Plan parallel those used to prepare the Air Quality Management Plan. Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 12 Air Quality Management Plan The federal Clean Air Act requires preparation of plans to improve air quality in any region designated as a nonattainment area. The Air Quality Management Plan, or AQMP, prepared by the South Coast Air Quality Management District, first adopted in 1994 and updated on a three-year cycle, contains policies and measures designed to achieve federal and state air quality standards within the South Coast Air Basin. The assumptions and programs in the AQMP draw directly from regional goals, objectives, and assumptions in SCAG’s Regional Comprehensive Plan and Guide. City Level Plans and Programs Vernon Zoning Ordinance In recognition of the City’s industrial nature, the City’s Zoning Ordinance establishes one Zone (the Industrial Zone) throughout the City, and provides for several Overlay Zones. The Zoning Ordinance establishes land use regulations for the City and each Overlay Zone with respect to permitted uses, allowable intensity, and development standards. The Zoning Ordinance explains the purposes of the Industrial Zone and each Overlay Zone, specifies permitted uses and conditional uses, and establishes development standards, and includes a map describing the location of each Overlay Zone. The Zoning Ordinance is the governing land use law for the City, and to the degree practical, implements the goals, policies, and development expectations established in Vernon’s Land Use Plan. Urban Water Management Plan Vernon’s Urban Water Management Plan provides the long- term plan and vision for managing its water resources and providing a reliable supply of water to its customers. The Plan details water supplies, water quality impacts, water demand management measures, water shortage contingency plan, and water recycling methods. Water Department Emergency Response and Recovery Plan The Vernon Water Department Emergency Response and Recovery Plan is designed to prepare the City’s Water Department for a planned response to emergency situations associated with natural disasters, technological incidents, and Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 13 natural security emergencies in, or affecting Vernon Water Department’s facilities and its service area. The plan is consistent with the requirements of Government Section 8607 and is intended to be used in conjunction with the State Emergency Plan. Standardized Emergency Management System Multi- Hazard Functional Plan Vernon’s Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) Multi-Hazard Function Plan addresses the City’s planned response to extraordinary emergency situations associated with natural disasters, technological incidents, and natural security emergencies. The plan does not address normal day-to-day emergencies or the well-established and routine procedure used in coping with such emergencies. Instead, the operational concepts reflected in this Plan focus on potential large-scale disasters, which can generate unique situations requiring unusual emergency responses. Vernon General Plan Introduction Introduction - 14 This page intentionally left blank. VERNON GENERAL PLAN LAND USE ELEMENT Vernon General Plan Land Use Element Land Use Element - 1 LAND USE ELEMENT 1.0 PURPOSE AND FOCUS 1.1 Purpose of this Element This Land Use Element establishes the broad, general policies for how properties are used in Vernon, including location, distribution, type, and intensity of development, with the overarching goal of maintaining Vernon as an industrial city. The Land Use Policy Map graphically illustrates the planned pattern of land use in Vernon and the City’s sphere of influence, which consists of unincorporated lands adjacent to Vernon which have a bearing and influence on properties in the City. The General Plan and Land Use Element goals and policies provide guidance to the City Council and City officials regarding zoning, land subdivision, public improvements, and physical development programs. The Land Use Element and the circulation portion of the Circulation and Infrastructure Element are closely tied. It is intended that the land use patterns and intensities permitted by Land Use Element policies be supported by the streets, Vernon General Plan Land Use Element Land Use Element - 2 highways, and other transportation systems planned in the Circulation and Infrastructure Element. Vernon recognizes that its street system is constrained by long-established development patterns, and land use policies have been crafted accordingly to minimize the adverse effects of specific land uses on the local street system. To continue to attract and support industrial businesses, the City must be able to accommodate the vehicular traffic associated with desired uses. With regard to housing, long-standing City policy has been to discourage housing, recognizing that the traffic, noise, and odors that industrial uses produce are generally incompatible with residential development. In the past, land use policy limited housing to existing, long-established single-family homes and apartments. However, in 2011 the City Council committed to implementing new good governance practices that included adopting land use policies aimed at increasing the voting populous. Specifically, the City has identified specific locations where a limited amount of new housing can be constructed, and has adopted implementing zoning regulations. Recognizing Vernon’s mission to remain and industrial city, the locations for housing have been selected to minimize adverse interface between industrial and residential uses. Vernon’s city boundaries blur and blend into urban Los Angeles County, and many of the people working in businesses in Vernon live relatively close by in communities removed from industrial conditions and where they have access to parks, grocery stores, pharmacies, and other residential amenities. Thus, it is appropriate that new housing opportunities in Vernon remain very limited. 1.2 Focus The key policy objective of the City is to remain almost exclusively an industrial city, serving the needs of industry, including local, national, and international consumers of goods produced by manufacturers. To fulfill this objective, this Element describes a limited range of land use categories, establishes standards of use and intensity, and sets forth policies relating to use of properties. 1.3 Flood Management In 2007, the State adopted legislation that strengthened the long-existing requirement that a General Plan address flood management by specifically mandating that the Land Use Element identify flood-prone areas mapped by either the Vernon General Plan Land Use Element Land Use Element - 3 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) or the State Department of Water Resources. Flood Insurance Rate Maps, which are prepared by FEMA, identify potential flood zones. Please refer to the Safety Element, which addresses this issue in detail. 2.0 LAND USE PLAN The Land Use Plan consists of the Land Use Policy Map and text that describes the types and intensities of permitted uses. The Land Use Plan, along with the Zoning Ordinance, provides guidance and direction for all planning and land use decisions. 2.1 Land Use Terms and Concepts In discussing how properties may be developed, this Element uses the following planning terms and concepts. Land Use Designations “Designation” means a generalized category of land use type, with associated standards of use and development. Intensity Intensity is used to describe the level of development existing or permitted on a lot or parcel of land. Intensity applies to industrial and commercial land uses. Intensity means the total building square footage, percent of lot coverage, or floor-area ratio established on a property. The measure of intensity Vernon has adopted is the floor-area ratio. Floor-area ratio, or FAR, describes the relationship between the total square footage of development on a lot and the area of that lot. In general, the FAR can be determined by dividing the gross floor area of all buildings on a lot by the land area of the lot. A precise definition is contained in the Zoning Ordinance. FAR and factors such as building square footage, building height, and the percent of the lot devoted to parking, open storage, and similar uses are all interrelated. For example, a 20,000 square-foot building on a 40,000 square-foot lot has a FAR of 0.50:1. This 0.50:1 FAR can accommodate a single-story building that covers half the lot or a two-story building with reduced lot coverage. Figure LU-1 illustrates different FAR calculations. Figure LU-1: Floor Area Ratio Vernon General Plan Land Use Element Land Use Element - 4 Density For residential uses, the term density describes the level of development permitted. New residential uses, in addition to existing homes, are permitted only at a few limited locations in the City. Land use policy limits housing at these locations by establishing a maximum allowable density. Density is described in terms of the number of dwelling units allowed per net acre (du/acre). Net acre is defined as the gross project or lot area, less that portion of the site to be used or dedicated for use as a public road and for flood control purposes. Substantive Improvements Several land use policies call for the City to take action, or for new requirements to take effect, when land uses change or when substantive improvements are made to a property. In general, if a building with a nonconforming use is vacant for more than two years, there is a voluntary major alteration or repair (defined as an alteration or repair costing more than 50% of the building’s fair market value), or an increase in square footage, such change will require conformity with the permitted uses and development standards of the Zoning Ordinance. The requirements for bringing nonconforming uses into conformity with the Zoning Ordinance are described in detail in the Zoning Ordinance.

In recognition of Vernon’s unique status as an exclusively industrial city, the General Plan contains one land use category (Industrial), and five Overlay Districts (Commercial, Rendering, Slaughtering, Housing, and Emergency Shelter). Industrial (I) – The industrial designation is purposefully structured to allow for a broad range of uses that support the City’s desire to maintain its status as a regional manufacturing and industrial center. The Industrial land use designation allows manufacturing, industrial uses, refrigerated and cold storage warehouses, data centers, general warehousing, industrial gas manufacturing, and any use or activity undertaken by the City. Refineries, energy generating facilities, hazardous waste facilities, trash to energy facilities, petroleum related uses, and other complementary uses may be permitted with special approval such as a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Certain ancillary uses may be permitted in accordance with Zoning Ordinance requirements. The maximum permitted FAR is 2:1. Overlay Districts All uses allowed in the Industrial category are permitted in the Overlay Districts. Each Overlay District allows certain specialized uses not permitted in other areas of the City. The Zoning Ordinance may impose conditions on the permitted uses and may identify appropriate development standards. The Plan provides for five Overlay Districts: Commercial Rendering Slaughtering Housing Emergency Shelter Commercial Overlay District – The Commercial Overlay District, encompassing approximately 535 acres, is established along Santa Fe Avenue, Pacific Boulevard, Atlantic Boulevard, and Slauson Avenue, and along portions of Soto Street – as indicated on the Land Use Policy Map – to accommodate retail, commercial, service, and restaurant uses that support the needs Vernon General Plan Land Use Element Land Use Element - 6 of the daily employee population. Such uses may be permitted with a Conditional Use Permit. Rendering Overlay District – A Rendering Overlay District, encompassing 164 acres, exists in the area indicated on the Land Use Policy Map. With a Conditional Use Permit, lots over one acre may be used for rendering. Slaughtering Overlay District – The Slaughtering Overlay District, encompassing 83 acres, is designated in the area indicated on the Land Use Policy Map. With a Conditional Use Permit, lots over one acre may be used for slaughtering of animals. Housing Overlay District – The Housing Overlay District is applicable only to sites that have been specifically identified by the City and determined to be the best locations for housing, given surrounding uses, proximity to services and amenities, and distance from large-scale industrial operations. Residential uses are permitted in this overlay with discretionary review, such as via a Development Agreement, given the ubiquitous nature of industrial businesses in Vernon. No more than 61 units shall be permitted within the Housing Overlay District citywide. Emergency Shelter Overlay District – The Emergency Shelter Overlay District is applicable only to sites that have been specifically identified by the City and determined to be appropriate locations for emergency shelters. This Overlay is established to comply with requirements of Government Code Section 65583(a)(4). 2.3 Implications of Land Use Policy Vernon is virtually built out, and at any point in time, few, if any, vacant parcels are available for development. New development only occurs as a result of land recycling, with newer, more modern industrial buildings replacing older facilities. Because many of the oldest buildings cover properties from lot line to lot line (with little or no on-site parking or loading spaces), new development frequently BANDINIBLVD61stStFruitlandAv58thSt60thStEWASHINGTONBLVD56thStSLAUSONAVRANDOLPHSTSSANTAFEAVEAlcoaAvDistrictBlvdSotoSt54thStSBoyleAvPacific Blvd52ndStEVernonAvGiffordAvStESlausonAvFruitlandAvLOSANGELESRIVERMaywood AvFishburnAv5PineAvE26ThStStE50thStLEONISBLVDTriggs StKingAvE46thStMalabar StSevilleAvClarendonAvNoakesSt59thPlCoronaAvEVERNONAVnAv57thStUNIONPACIFICRRBURLINGTONNORTHERNSANTAFERRE27thStCarmelitaAvSt52NdPlE58thStE44thStMilesAvStStEmeryStE 49th StAlbanyStE52ndStFRUITLANDAVE54thStAlcoaAvIndianaStE56thStE54thStArbutusAvE15ThStMalburgWyExchangeAvVioletAlBickettStAyersAvE52ndPlauraAvDunham StMaywoodAvHamptonStCharterStE24thSt60thPlSHerbertAvE45thStBelgraveAvSIndianaStSierraPineAvBANDINIBLVDLOSANGELESJUNCTIONRRUNIONPACIFICRRSBonnieBeachPlPackersAvSevilleAvLosPalosStSSunolDrChambersStHolabird AvFurlongPlAlcoaAv53rdSt55thStUNION PACIFIC RRBURLINGTON NORTHERN SANTA FE RRRE49ThStSheilaSt61st StBelgrave AvDISTRICTBLVDE26thStAyersAvONAVIr v in g S t RANDOLPHSTLomaVistaAv57thStEverettAvLomaVistaAvE37THSTESLAUSONAVPACIFICBLVDE28thST30thStSaintCharlesStStStBOYLEAVSOTOSTSSotoStSSantaFeAvStSSantaFeAvE 26th StSevilleAvDOWNEYRDSATLANTICBLVDE50thSt52ndSt54thSt56thSt58thSt55thSt58thStMayflowerAv61stPlWoodlawnAv61stSt1.ctsHousingEmergency ShelterVernon City BoundaryVernon Sphere of InfluenceBase Map This page left intentionally blank Vernon General Plan Land Use Element Land Use Element - 9 results in reduced lot coverage and thus reduced building space, as the new use is required to provide parking and loading per current zoning regulations. Thus, implementation of land use policy over time is not anticipated to notably increase the overall intensity of development in Vernon. Rather, uses will shift among the various permitted industrial, manufacturing, and limited commercial and retail uses. Also, up to 61 additional residential units are anticipated to be constructed within the Housing Overlay District. Total building square footage and the number of employees in Vernon has steadily declined since the early 1990s. The Land Use Element anticipates a continuing decline in building square footage and employees during the period of this General Plan. Table LU-1 identifies the building square footage and employment for the baseline year (2007) and the decline in square footage and employment. This anticipated decline is taken into account in developing land use policy set forth in the Land Use Policy Map and the goals and policies contained in this Element. Table LU-1 Non-Residential Building Square Footage and Employment Projections The City of Vernon has, in the past, discouraged new housing development due to potential conflicts with industry. The City has revised this policy to permit very limited new residential development in specifically designated areas, with the goal of increasing the voting population and enhancing government accountability. Land use policy will permit up to 61 new housing units via the Housing Overlay District. The population increase associated with this land use policy is estimated to be 216 additional Vernon residents, assuming the average Vernon household size reported in the 2010 Census. This land use Land Use Designation Net Acreage (A) Baseline Year (2007) Development Build-out Year (2025) Development Net Increase/ Decrease Percent Change Industrial 2,775 Building Square Footage 62,636,000 61,412,300 -1,223,700 -2.0% Employment (B) 44,600 43,700 -900 -2.0% Note: (A) Net Acreage does not include streets or the Los Angeles River. (B) Number of employees Vernon General Plan Land Use Element Land Use Element - 10 policy would triple the baseline 2010 resident population from 112 persons to an estimated 328 persons. 2.4 Relationship of Land Use Policy to the Zoning Ordinance The Zoning Ordinance is the primary implementation tool for the Land Use Element. Both the Element and the Ordinance describe the distribution and intensity limits for development. Whereas the Land Use Element sets forth the broad policies for future development, the Zoning Ordinance provides specific detail, enforcement mechanisms, development standards, and provides for deviations through Conditional Use Permits, Variances, and amendments to the Zoning Ordinance. The Zoning Ordinance includes the following zoning districts to implement land use policy: Table LU-2 Relationship of Land Use Categories and Zoning Districts Land Use Designation Corresponding Zoning District Industrial General Industrial (I) Commercial Overlay Commercial - 1 (C-1) Commercial - 2 (C-2) Slaughtering Overly Slaughtering Overlay (S) Rendering Overlay Rendering Overlay (R) Housing Overlay Housing Overlay (H) Emergency Shelter Overlay Emergency Shelter Overlay (ES) Trucking and Freight Terminal Overlay (TF) 3.0 GOALS AND POLICIES Land use goals and policies related to land use and its distribution and intensity reflect the industrial nature of Vernon. Vernon incorporated in 1905 for the stated purpose of being an exclusively industrial city. This founding purpose has remained largely unchanged over the last century, with the focus of City land use policy on providing suitable sites for industry and providing the infrastructure and services required to serve industrial activities. Vernon General Plan Land Use Element Land Use Element - 11 GOAL LU-1 Promote and maintain manufacturing and other industrial uses as the primary land use within the City. POLICY LU-1.1: Designate all properties in Vernon for manufacturing and industrial use, and permit other uses only with a Conditional Use Permit or other discretionary review process.

VERNON GENERAL PLAN CIRCULATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE ELEMENT Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 1 CIRCULATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE ELEMENT 1.0 PURPOSE AND FOCUS 1.1 Purpose The Circulation and Infrastructure Element addresses the movement of goods and people along roadways and railways in the City, as well as the distribution of water, wastewater, stormwater, energy, and information through various conduits. Vernon’s industrial nature involves both manufacturing and logistics. Vernon originally was oriented around rail transport, but over the years goods movement has relied increasingly on trucks, thus heightening the importance of a local street system capable of safely and efficiently handling multi-axle truck traffic. In addition to good access to transportation, industrial businesses demand reliable, high-volume utilities to properly conduct their operations. Intense land uses require large amounts of electricity and water, and also generate large amounts of sewage. Today’s globalized Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 2 economy demands fast, high-capacity telephone and other communications systems. To remain competitive as a location for industry, Vernon must be able to deliver or otherwise provide high-quality utility services at competitive prices. 1.2 Focus California planning law requires the inclusion of a Circulation Element addressing both transportation and non-transportation infrastructure. While all elements of the General Plan must be consistent with each other, the Circulation Element must, by State law, correlate directly to the Land Use Element. 2.0 CIRCULATION PLAN 2.1 Regional Circulation Streets and Freeways Vernon lies two miles southeast of the industrial areas of downtown Los Angeles, and both the local roadway and freeway systems directly connect the industrial businesses in Vernon with industrial development in adjacent communities. Key connections include: Downtown Los Angeles, via Alameda Street and Santa Fe Avenue; The Boyle Heights district of the City of Los Angeles, via Soto Street, Washington Boulevard, and Downey Road; The City of Commerce, via Washington Boulevard, Interstate 710, and Atlantic Boulevard; The City of Bell, via Bandini Boulevard and Interstate 710; The City of Maywood, via Atlantic Boulevard; The City of Huntington Park, via Slauson Avenue, Soto Street, Pacific Boulevard, Santa Fe Avenue, and Alameda Street; Portions of the City of Los Angeles south of downtown, connected by many streets across the shared boundary of Alameda Street, including Vernon Avenue and Santa Fe Avenue. Of particular note is the Long Beach Freeway, Interstate 710. Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 3 Interstate 710 provides an important direct connection to the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles. Although less than half a mile of this freeway traverses Vernon, that portion contains the very busy Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard interchange. This frequently congested interchange carries a substantial amount of truck traffic from Vernon, particularly from the adjacent Hobart Rail Yard. In August of 2004, the Gateway Cities Council of Governments made preliminary recommendations to improve the Atlantic/Bandini interchange, as well as to build truck ramps directly from the rail yards to the freeway. Engineering plans and studies for this interchange will continue in concert with broader plans for improvements to I-710, with improvements to the interchange expected be accomplished prior to 2030. The timing will depend upon State approvals and funding. Once implemented, the interchange improvements are expected to relieve a major traffic bottleneck and improve safety by separating autos from heavy truck traffic. The City has undertaken a project to partially relieve congestion at the Atlantic/Bandini interchange. The extension of 26th Street to Bandini Boulevard will provide a means for through traffic to bypass the Atlantic/Bandini interchange. Railroads In the early years of the twentieth century, rail transport dominated the distribution of materials and manufactured goods, so an extensive rail network was built in Vernon with main lines, switching yards, and many spur lines to serve industrial properties. Over the years, trucks have come to play a more important role in freight transport, especially for access to individual businesses. Some spur rail lines have been abandoned, but rail traffic still plays a major role in the transport of materials and goods. Several rail lines cross Vernon, the most important of which is the Alameda Corridor. The Alameda Corridor, opened in 2002, serves as the primary connection between the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and the rail yards of Vernon, Commerce, and downtown Los Angeles. The Alameda Corridor places ten miles of track inside the 30- foot-deep Mid-Corridor Trench between the northern Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 4 boundary of Vernon at 25th Street south to the State Route 91 freeway. This has eliminated many dangerous and time-consuming conflicts between surface street traffic and at-grade rail crossings, both in Vernon and elsewhere along the line. While the Alameda Corridor takes much of the container shipping traffic that would otherwise use trucks or the older Union Pacific (UP) or Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) lines, the older lines do still receive some use. Many at-grade rail crossings remain in the City. These should gradually decrease as the City encourages rail lines to merge facilities, to abandon spur lines, and to participate in separating streets from remaining railways. The Hobart Yard, located in the northeastern portion of Vernon, links the Alameda Corridor and BNSF lines with the wider transcontinental rail system, serving to assemble longer trains and transfer shipping containers between trucks and trains. Vernon is also home to the smaller Malabar Yard (east of Santa Fe Avenue between Fruitland Avenue and Vernon Avenue), the Los Angeles Junction Yard (between Exchange Boulevard and the Los Angeles River), and a portion of the UP East Yard. Other important rail yards are located nearby but outside of the Vernon city limits. 2.2 Vernon’s Street System Streets in Vernon generally form a grid pattern, although not a regularly spaced grid. Many of the City’s streets do not extend more than two or three blocks, with many T- intersections. To accommodate large industrial lots, most streets in Vernon are spaced farther apart than is typical in urban residential or commercial areas; most blocks in the City are between 600 and 2,000 feet long. 2.2.1 Street Classification Vernon’s street system is differentiated by roadway size, function, and capacity. The four basic types of roadways in Vernon are described below. Figure CI-1 presents schematic cross-sections for each type of roadway that represent desirable standards. Deviations from these standards may occur in cases where physical constraints and/or right-of-way limitations are present. Provision of sidewalks and off-street parking may also affect the specific design of roadways. In addition, the median Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 5 width of arterials and collectors will vary according to the area being served, right-of-way constraints, and turn lane requirements. The assignment of these classifications to streets in the City is shown on the Circulation Plan, Figure CI-2. Freeway Freeways are controlled-access, high-speed throughways included in the State and federal highway systems. Freeways carry regional through traffic, that is, traffic passing through Vernon without stopping in the City. The Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard interchange of the I-710, the Long Beach Freeway, is in Vernon. Access to the regional highway system for Vernon businesses and visitors is provided at the interchange between I-710, Atlantic Boulevard, and Bandini Boulevard. The design, construction, and maintenance of freeways are under the jurisdiction of the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). Arterial Arterial streets, together with freeways, form a network carrying long-distance, high-speed traffic. Arterial streets transport large volumes of traffic from one part of the City to another and connect to the regional street system. The arterial streets also move traffic between cities in locations where a freeway does not link the two. Of the roadways designed, constructed, and maintained by the City, arterials are designed to have the highest traffic carrying capacity, the highest speeds, and limited interference with traffic flow by driveways. Limitations on truck access to and from abutting properties are most important on arterial streets to prevent obstructions and delays. Arterial streets aligned generally north-south in Vernon are, from west to east: Alameda Street Santa Fe Avenue Pacific Avenue (this curves broadly from north- south to east-west before continuing as Vernon Avenue) Soto Street Downey Road Atlantic Boulevard Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 6 Figure CI-1: Street Cross Sections 64 FT Co l l ec t o r St r eet s L o c al St r eet s A r t er i al 64 to 104 FT 80 to 120 FT NOTES 1.

American DisabilityAct (ADA) requirements must be met for all pedestrian access. 4. Parking on major roadways will depend on land width and available right-of-wa y. 80 FT Minimum 42 to 49 FT 60 to 65 FT Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 7 Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 8 Arterial streets aligned generally east-west in Vernon are, from north to south: Washington Boulevard Bandini Boulevard (this continues as 37th Street west of Soto Street) District Boulevard between Downey Road and Atlantic Boulevard (this continues as Leonis Boulevard west of Downey Road) Slauson Avenue East Vernon Avenue/Pacific Boulevard Collector Collector streets are intended to serve as intermediate routes, handling traffic between arterial streets and local streets. Collectors are designed primarily to move traffic, but also to provide access to abutting properties. Collectors differ from arterials in that collectors distribute trips from the arterials to ultimate destinations. Conversely, collectors also collect traffic from local streets and channel it onto the arterials. Ideally, collector streets should form a network, but with no one collector extending so far that it functions as an arterial street. Collector streets in Vernon aligned generally north-south include: Boyle Avenue Collector streets aligned generally east-west in Vernon are, from north to south: 25th Street/26th Street 38th Street/37th Street (these two streets flow into each other, and continue as Bandini Boulevard east of Soto Street) Vernon Avenue (this street is discontinuous and offset at Santa Fe Avenue) Leonis Boulevard (this street continues as District Boulevard east of Downey Road) District Boulevard east of Atlantic Boulevard Fruitland Avenue Local Local streets provide direct access to individual parcels. The local street is not designed for through traffic. Rather, local streets should move traffic toward the nearest Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 9 collector street. Therefore, speeds on local streets are relatively low, and on-street parking is usually permitted. Local streets are two-lane roadways without medians. When traffic congestion is detected through closed circuit detection cameras and/or via electronic traffic loops, the current signal patterns are adjusted to relieve or reduce the congestion. 2.2.2 Measuring roadway performance Evaluating the ability of the circulation system to serve Vernon’s businesses and other users requires establishing suitable performance criteria. Within the Circulation and Infrastructure Element, two measures are used to describe traffic flow on Vernon’s roadways and freeway access points: Volume to Capacity Ratios (V/C) and Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU). These measures are used to establish Level of Service (LOS) categories describing the performance of roadways and access points throughout the City. Each of these measures is described briefly below. Volume to Capacity Ratio (V/C) This measure, consisting of a ratio between volume and theoretical capacity, is used to measure the performance of roadway facilities. Volume is established either by a traffic count (in the case of current volumes) or by a forecast for a future point in time. Capacity refers to the vehicle carrying ability of a roadway at free flow speed, and is a critical component of roadway design. For example, a roadway that carries 16,000 vehicles per day, with the capacity to accommodate 20,000 vehicles per day at free flow speed, has a V/C of 0.80. Intersection Capacity Utilization (ICU) This measure is applied using peak hour volumes and considers the geometric configuration of intersections when measuring capacity. Intersection Capacity Utilization sums the V/C ratios for the critical movements of an intersection, and thus accounts for the overall performance of intersections, which are the most critical limitations within the City roadway system. Level of Service (LOS) Level of Service (LOS) describes the efficiency and quality of traffic operations. Six categories of LOS – the letter designations A to F – are used to identify traffic conditions, with LOS A representing excellent conditions and LOS F Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 10 representing extreme congestion. The LOS designations are based upon V/C ratios calculated for freeway access ramps and roadway segments, as well as ICU values calculated for intersections. Table CI-1 shows V/C and ICU ranges and the corresponding LOS, with a description of corresponding traffic conditions. The City of Vernon uses LOS D as its minimum standard for traffic operations. Table CI-1 Level of Service Descriptions Level of Service Description of Traffic Conditions V/C or ICU A Very short delays at intersections and free flow operation. Vehicles are completely unimpeded and can maneuver freely within traffic. 0.00 – 0.60 B Short delays of 10 to 20 seconds at intersections. Vehicles are completely unimpeded and can maneuver through traffic. 0.61 - 0.70 C Stable flow, with delays of 20 to 35 seconds at intersections. Some waiting vehicles may fail to go through the intersection before the green light turns red. Ability to maneuver and change lanes at mid-block is somewhat restricted. 0.71 – 0.80 D Congestion becomes more noticeable, with delays of 35 to 55 seconds at intersections. Many vehicles are required to stop at signals, and travel speeds along these roadways become slower. 0.81 – 0.90 E Unstable traffic flow, with delays of 55 to 80 seconds at intersections. Most vehicles are required to wait at least one traffic signal cycle. 0.91 – 1.00 F Traffic volumes exceed capacity, resulting in jammed intersections. This can result in delays greater than 80 seconds, and/or two-cycle signal waits. Above 1.00 Source: Highway Capacity Manual 2000, Transportation Research Board, National Research Council Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 11 2.2.3 Circulation System Improvements Needed to Meet Level of Service Goals The City is investigating the following programs with the intent of improving the overall traffic flows throughout Vernon during morning and evening peak hours. These programs include physical improvements, such as widening streets, as well as advanced technological strategies, such as monitoring traffic flows using video and computer systems. Transportation System Management Although widening some roads in Vernon may help in reducing traffic congestion, Vernon must pursue alternative cost effective and efficient methods in improving traffic flows. Due to narrow streets and limited right-of-ways, Vernon’s traffic congestion can no longer be resolved by capacity enhancements such as lane re-striping or roadway widening. An alternative strategy is implementation of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), which allows a city to control traffic signals by using advanced computer technologies, monitor traffic using video monitoring, and provide traveler information to motorists. The City intends to work toward implementing ITS systems at strategic locations to improve traffic flows. The City recommends implementing an ITS program, the Los Angeles County automated traffic surveillance and control (ATSAC) system, in an effort to improve traffic flow and increase capacity throughout the City. Traffic signal surveillance and control is a developing method of measuring the efficiency of traffic signal systems. This approach consists of installation of surveillance cameras and traffic volume counters to monitor traffic flow. Implementation of a citywide ATSAC system will improve many of the deficient intersections to an acceptable level of service. In addition to the ATSAC system, the following physical improvements will also help alleviate traffic congestion in the City. 26th Street Extension The City is planning to improve east to west access, near the I-710 Freeway and Atlantic Boulevard, by extending 26th Street easterly across Atlantic Boulevard and connecting with Bandini Boulevard. This improvement Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 12 will help improve intersection conditions at Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard/I-710 Freeway interchange. Atlantic Boulevard Bridge Widening The City of Vernon is planning to widen the Atlantic Boulevard Bridge over the Los Angeles River. The project plans to widen bridge to six lanes. Soto Street Widening Soto Street is a key north-south arterial that brings traffic from Interstate 10 to and through Vernon. Of the north- south arterials in the City, Soto Street has the best ability to handle higher volumes, and particularly through volumes. In 2002, the City of Vernon conducted the Soto Street Corridor Study to identify the best way to improve traffic flow along Soto Street and also relieve peak-hour congestions on parallel arterials. The preferred alternative involves widening Soto Street from four lanes to six lanes, three in each direction. This configuration requires widening the public right-of-way between 37th Street/Bandini Boulevard and Olympic Boulevard. Widening the public right-of-way will require each property owner with frontage along this section of Soto Street to dedicate between eight and 14 feet of property, depending on location, to public use. The City will require this dedication when a property undergoes a complete redevelopment or substantial improvement. The City may also proactively acquire some rights-of-way to achieve the planned configuration. When fully implemented, this plan will allow traffic to move more freely on Soto Street, improving the Level of Service. It will also have a secondary traffic-moderating effect on nearby streets. I-710 Freeway Improvements In a regional effort to improve truck movement from the ports to inland areas and overall increase the capacity of the I-710 Freeway, Caltrans has embarked on a major improvement program for the I-710 Freeway. The following improvements have been identified for the I-710 Freeway, between Slauson Avenue and Washington Boulevard, which will significantly contribute to traffic improvements in Vernon: Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 13 The addition of two dedicated truck lanes with direct access to Hobart Rail Yard; Added general purpose lanes on the Freeway; Modication of Atlantic and Bandini Boulevards interchange; Addition of Slauson Avenue interchange; Closure of Washington Boulevard Interchange; and Extension of District Boulevard and creation of new intersection at Slauson Avenue. 2.3 Off-Street Parking and Loading Facilities Vernon’s streets support a significant load of heavy truck traffic. Since the street system was developed early in the twentieth century, streets are typically narrower than industrial street standards, and the streets were not designed to handle today’s truck sizes and volume of traffic. Large multi-axle vehicles encounter difficulties maneuvering on the streets, and congestion and traffic back-ups frequently occur as trucks enter and leave properties. Many properties have small driveways and inadequate loading bays, and trucks making these difficult maneuvers to access properties can block traffic and cause delays. Further contributing to on-street congestion is significant on-street parking. Many businesses do not provide adequate off-street parking for employees, largely because the properties were developed before parking of any maginitude was required. As properties transition to other uses, creating sufficient off-street parking to meet current zoning standards is extremely difficult. The City has considered many approaches to addressing the problems associated with inadequate off-street parking and loading facilities, including establishing criteria (such as vacancy in the building for over a year, major alteration or repair, or increase in square footage of a building) that would require the owner of a non-conforming property to bring parking and loading facilities into compliance with the City’s zoning standards. However, the widespread nature of the non-conformities makes this a difficult and costly proposition. Thus, the City will look to implement over time a variety of techniques to minimize congestion resulting from on-street parking and undersized or poorly configured loading facilities, which may include: Restricting truck movements at key intersections and along key road segments; Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 14 Allowing for development of shared parking facilities; Establishing parking restrictions along key travel corridors; and Requiring that parking and loading comply with current zoning code requirements whenever substantial property modifications are proposed, the property has been vacant for over a year, or there is a proposed increase in floor area. 2.4 Other Transportation Modes Vernon is served by buses operated by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transit Authority (Metro). As an important center of employment, several Metro bus lines serve Vernon, providing an important alternative to personal automobiles as a means of commuting to and from work. Buses are particularly important for Vernon for several reasons. First, they provide transportation for workers who may be low income and cannot readily afford an automobile or gasoline. Second, by reducing the number of cars on the road, they reduce traffic and conflicts between cars and heavy trucks. Third, bus service reduces the strain on employers to provide parking for their workers. Located west of the City of Vernon, the Metro’s Blue Line light rail system also provides an important regional link for Vernon commuters. The Blue Line has a station at Vernon Avenue, approximately one-quarter mile west of the City boundary. From this station or adjacent stations at Washington Boulevard or Slauson Avenue, workers may walk to their workplaces or connect to one of several bus lines. While bicycles represent an additional mode of travel, biking is not encouraged on Vernon’s streets due to the heavy truck traffic and narrow configuration of many streets, which would present dangers to cyclists. The City of Vernon will cooperate with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority and other local agencies in their efforts to complete a bicycle path along the levee of the Los Angeles River connecting downtown Los Angeles with the waterfront in Long Beach. Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 15 3.0 MEETING INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS 3.1 Water and Wastewater Three water agencies supply water to the businesses, residents, and utilities in Vernon (see Figure CI-3). The majority of the City’s water is supplied by the City of Vernon’s Water Department. The area north of the Los Angeles River and east of a line just west of Indiana Street is supplied by the California Water Service Company (Cal Water), East Los Angeles District. The small portion of Vernon south of the Los Angeles River and east of Atlantic Boulevard is serviced by Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3. The City of Vernon water system has received a Class I rating, the highest possible, by the Insurance Service Organization. The City’s water distribution system consists of 250,000 linear feet of pipe, nine wells, seven ground-level reservoirs, one elevated tank, and a below- ground reservoir. The total storage capacity is 16 million gallons. In addition, Vernon has a direct interconnection to the Metropolitan Water District (MWD). The MWD connection provides both a supplemental water source and an emergency supply in the event of a major power outage. The average pressure in the distribution systems is about 75 pounds per square inch (psi). Details of the sources and levels of water consumption used by the City of Vernon Water Department are provided in the Resources Element. The City owns its own sewerge collection system which discharges into the system managed by the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts (LACSD). The majority of Vernon is within District 23, but also contains territory in Districts 1 and 2.

This agreement provides for the operation and maintenance of an interconnected Joint Operating System of wastewater collection, treatment, reuse, and disposal facilities across a large portion of the urban region. The Joint Operating System includes the following treatment plants: Joint Water Pollution Control Plant, Carson; Whittier Narrows Water Reclamation Plant (WRP), near South El Monte; Los Coyotes WRP, Cerritos; San Jose Creek WRP, near Industry; Long Beach WRP, Long Beach; and Pomona WRP, Pomona. All of the sewerage generated in Vernon is treated by the Joint Water Pollution Control agency. 3.2 Storm Drainage Stormwater runoff in Vernon is conveyed through local and and Los Angeles County Flood Control District storm drainage systems. Discharges are regulated under an existing NPDES permit for municipal stormwater (NPDES Permit CAS004001, Order No. 01-182, and in particular, Subsection 8.14.6.3-Industrial Stormwater). This permit was not written specifically for Vernon; it covers most of Los Angeles County and includes Vernon as a co- permittee. The permit establishes a framework of requirements for monitoring discharges and water quality, performing best management practices, and submitting reports to the Regional Water Quality Control Board, Los Angeles Region. To address growing concerns with stormwater runoff contamination in urban areas, the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWCB) looks for co- permittees to capture and treat runoff on individual parcels at the time properties are redeveloped. The LARWCB policy is to seek to infiltrate as much of the stormwater as practical. In Vernon, this approach is difficult,primarily due to the industrial nature of the City and the potential for ground water contamination and the need to utilize available surface area to meet parking and loading requirements. The City supports a more comprehensive approach and will continue to explore Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 18 options to meet NPDES requirements creatively and in ways that can help achieve other City goals as well. 3.3 Electrical Generation and Distribution The City of Vernon operates its own Light and Power Department, supplying customers throughout the City with reliable and comparatively low-cost electrical power. The City generates electrical power and also purchases power from third-party suppliers through its connection with the Southern California Edison bulk power system and the Cal-ISO grid at the Laguna Bell Substation. For many years, the City’s power-generating facility has supplied local customers with local power, supplemented as needed through connections to the grid. More recently, the Malburg Generating Station, which is a combined cycle plant with two natural-gas-fired combustion turbines and one steam turbine, has been providing additional power. However, in an effort to be able to supply nearly all of the local electrical demand, the City intends to construct a new natural gas-fired power plant at 3200 Fruitland Avenue. When constructed, the Vernon Power Plant is expected to have a capacity of 914 megawatts of electric power using three natural-gas-fired combustion turbines and one steam turbine. Vernon anticipates that when this facility is operational, Vernon will not need to import electricity from outside sources, and will even be able to contribute to the regional electricity reserves through a line connecting the plant to Southern California Edison’s Laguna Bell substation in Commerce. 3.4 Communications and Information Technology To attract new businesses and to accommodate businesses’ ever-changing telecommunications needs, Vernon has established a network of fiber-optic cables in the City. This enables businesses to receive exceptionally clear telephone and internet service, giving Vernon an advantage when competing for business. The City will continue to be proactive in developing telecommunications systems beneficial to businesses, including the development of data centers in the City. Vernon General Plan Circulation and Infrastructure Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element - 19 3.5 Gas System As a means of attracting and retaining industrial users, the City has developed a system for transporting and providing natural gas to businesses within the City at competitive prices. The City is currently providing natural gas to the Malburg Generating Plant and other businesses. A fully developed distribution system exists and connection is available to all businesses. 4.0 GOALS AND POLICIES To support the needs of existing businesses in Vernon and to attract new enterprises consistent with the City’s vision to remain an industrial city, Vernon will continue to improve its infrastructure – from the street system to energy facilities to communications systems.

VERNON GENERAL PLAN Adopted February 2013 2014-2021 HOUSING ELEMENT Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 1 HOUSING ELEMENT 1.0 INTRODUCTION Vernon is located near the geographic center of Los Angeles County. The City is bounded on the north and west by Los Angeles, on the east by Commerce and Bell, and on the south by Huntington Park and Maywood. Vernon is three miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles (Figure H-1) and 15 miles north of major harbor and port facilities in San Pedro and Long Beach. The City’s fully industrial nature generally creates conflicts with housing due to safety and environmental concerns. The Southern California Council of Governments (SCAG) historically has assigned Vernon very low housing production goals – and in the case of this cycle, a Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) of two units - in recognition of Vernon’s unique status as city devoted almost exclusively to industrial uses. Past City policy has precluded the development of any new residential units due to potential conflicts with industry. However, efforts by the City to create and implement a number of reforms and initiatives to enhance the accountability and transparency of its government and better provide for the Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 2 welfare of its residents and businesses have led to a policy change regarding housing. Specifically, the City of Vernon has established a policy to increase the City’s population to enhance government accountability through the construction of approximately 30 to 50 new non-City owned housing units, including units specifically designated for low- and very low- income households. Also, the City of Vernon is committed to maintaining the existing, long-established housing stock of 31 units. Figure H-1: Regional Location Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 3 1.1 State Requirement The California Government Code is very specific concerning the preparation and content of a housing element. It is the only element which must be reviewed by the State for completeness and compliance with the law before it is adopted. The element examines existing conditions and, through analysis, identifies housing needs and presents programs to meet those needs. The legislature has deemed that the Housing Element is the appropriate mechanism to implement State-wide goals regarding the provision of decent and suitable housing for all persons. The Government Code also makes it clear that the provision of affordable housing is the responsibility of all local governments and that they, using vested powers, should make a conscious effort to see that there are housing opportunities for all income groups (Section 65580). The intent of the State housing element requirements is based on the following concerns (Section 65581): 1. Local governments should recognize their responsibilities in contributing to the attainment of the State’s housing goals; 2. Cities and counties should prepare and implement housing elements coordinated with State and federal efforts to achieve the State’s housing goals; 3. Each local jurisdiction should participate in determining the necessary efforts required to attain the State’s housing goals; and 4. Each local government must cooperate with other local governments to address regional housing needs. This Housing Element was prepared in compliance with State requirements, and covers the 2014-2021 planning period for jurisdictions in the SCAG region. Many of the housing goals and programs which are desirable in non-industrial jurisdictions are not feasible in Vernon. The noise, dust, vibration, chemical wastes, and odors from Vernon’s local industries (many of which operate around the clock) serve as a deterrent to housing development in almost all locations within the City. Moreover, housing generally should not be encouraged in close proximity to heavy industry Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 4 for health and safety reasons. The Government Code makes it clear that the local government has the responsibility to consider such environmental factors in the Housing Element (Section 65580[e]). Therefore, while each requirement of State housing element law is referenced, this Housing Element reflects the unique realities within the City of Vernon. Potential sites for new housing have been analyzed in detail, including the conduct of a health risk assessment to identify the most preferable sites. 1.2 Relation to Other General Plan Elements The Vernon General Plan is comprised of the following six elements: Land Use; Circulation and Infrastructure; Housing; Safety; Resources; and Noise. The Housing Element builds upon the other General Plan elements and is entirely consistent with the policies and proposals set forth by the Plan. The General Plan was comprehensively updated in 2007. As portions of the General Plan are amended in the future, the Plan (including the Housing Element) will be reviewed to ensure that internal consistency is maintained. 1.3 Sources of Information The City of Vernon consists of two Census Tracts in the 2010 Census, including all of 5324.00 and a small portion of 5323.04. The 2010 Census incorrectly indicates that a portion of Census Tract 5323.02 is located in the City of Vernon; however, any actual overlap of the City boundary and Census Tract 5323.02 is a mapping error and does not represent any substantial area. The 2010 Census indicates that there are 29 housing units in Vernon, of which 28 were occupied as of 2010. However, both the 1990 and the 2000 Censuses has incorrectly documented the City’s unit count figures. The State Department of Finance (DOF) provides more up-to-date housing information based on the Census data. For the 2012 DOF housing estimates, the Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 5 housing count has been adjusted to accurately reflect Vernon’s housing count known number of units: 31.. The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) also prepares growth forecasts for the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) and the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) for cities within the SCAG region. SCAG’s 2012 adopted growth forecasts identify Vernon as having 30 households in 2008, with a projection for 30 units in 2035. The City has verified the existence of 31 units within its jurisdiction (of which 30 were occupied as of September 2012), the addresses for which are listed in Appendix C. While Census and SCAG data are used within the Housing Element, it is hereby acknowledged these data represent an undercount of two units and one unit, respectively. In addition, because of the City’s extremely limited housing stock, combined with the fact that the City owns 26 of these units, original data from the City on housing and household characteristics are utilized where available in place of the Census. In addition to housing conditions and market information provided by the City, the following documents serve as supplemental material to the Vernon Housing Element and are incorporated by reference: 1. 2012 SCAG Regional Transportation Plan Socioeconomic Projections 2. 2010 Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS) data; HUD tabulations based on 2006-2010 American Community Survey Five-Year Estimates developed by the U.S Census Bureau 1.4 Public Participation Section 65583 (c)(6)(A) of the Government Code states: “The local government shall make a diligent effort to achieve public participation of all economic segments of the community in the development of the housing element, and the program shall describe this effort.” For purposes of this Housing Element, outreach to the community was conducted to assess the types of and locations for housing to be considered as part of the City’s reform Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 6 process. The following meetings were held to gather input into the development of the Housing Element: Housing Commission Workshop, February 9, 2012. The Housing Element consultant made a presentation to the Commission that provided an overview of the City’s housing commitments, reviewed options to meet those commitments, identified known constraints, and identified sites under consideration for potential housing. Vernon Chamber of Commerce Meeting, March 29, 2012. The Housing Element consultant met with Chamber representatives and made a presentation similar to that conducted with the Housing Commission. City Council Workshop, April 17, 2012. Based on input received during the two meetings described above, the Housing Element consultant refined the presentation to focus on preferred housing sites, options for housing types, and potential environmental and health risks located on or near the preferred sites. In addition, community residents were provided the opportunity to review and comment on the Draft Element prior to adoption. Upon receipt of comments from the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) on the Draft Element, the City Council conducted a public hearing on the Element. (The City Council has not created a separate Planning Commission, so all public hearings are conducted before the Council.) For all hearings, notice was published in the local newspaper, posted in the City, and mailed to those who have a request for notice on file in advance of the hearing. The Draft Element was available for review online and in the City’s Community Services Department. Copies were made available on request to any person at a nominal charge. The public hearing provided an opportunity for public comment, and recommendations were considered by City Council for incorporation into the Element. In December of 2007, the City adopted a comprehensive revision to its Zoning Ordinance. As part of this process, the City held a series of public meetings with property and Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 7 business owners to discuss changes to the document. This successful outreach process resulted in full support of the revisions to the Zoning Ordinance. As part of this Housing Element Update, the Zoning Ordinance was again amended to create an overlay zone to be applied to sites where housing will be permitted. A second overlay was created to allow for the establishment of emergency housing pursuant to Government Code 65583(a)(4). The City conducted a comprehensive review of the most viable housing sites in the City, and through the new overlay districts has established implementing zoning to facilitate housing development. The City made the draft Housing Element, with revisions as recommended by HCD, available to the public in December 2012 through January 2013. Notices of the public hearing held on February 5, 2013 and availability of the document for review were mailed to the following service providers: Human Services Association, Bell Gardens Los Angeles County Social Services Department, Cudahy St. Matthias Social Service Center, Huntington Park Mexican American Opportunity Foundation – Community Services, Commerce Ability First/East Los Angeles Center, Los Angeles Eastern Los Angeles Regional Center, Alhambra The notice indicated the web location of the draft Element for download by interested parties, and asked that comments be directed to S. Kevin Wilson, Director of Community Services and Water. Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 8 2.0 HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT 2.1 Population and Housing Trends City records indicate that Vernon’s housing stock and related resident population base has undergone little change since 1980. The City had a 1980 housing stock of 35 dwelling units, supporting a resident population of 85 persons. Only one residential unit has been constructed since that time. Several substandard residential units have been removed from the housing stock, including three units in 1984, one unit in 1985, and one in 1992, bringing the current unit count to 31. These housing units are all located west of Downey Road. Since 1980, the resident population has ranged between 77 and 120 persons, with the current population estimated by the 2010 Census to be 112 persons. For 2012, the Department of Finance reported 120 persons. The 2006-2010 American Community Survey indicates that the majority of residents in Vernon are employed in management, service, and sales industries.

As illustrated in Table H-2, SCAG projects that in 2035, the households and population in Vernon will remain constant at 30 and 100, respectively. SCAG’s projections were made at a time prior to the City’s reform commitments and thus do not reflect the population and household growth that will result from new housing units.

Average household size is 4.0 persons per unit. Housing vacancy is generally very low in the City, with only one rental unit unoccupied according to the 2010 Census. No owner-occupied housing is vacant. Table H-3 presents 2012 data on housing units per structure, as reported to the State Department of Finance. The majority of Vernon’s housing stock is comprised of single-family dwellings, with only one apartment building located in the City. The City owns 84 percent of the total housing stock: 26 dwelling units, 18 of which are single-family dwellings and one of which is an eight-unit apartment building. The City rents these units. As part of the reform initiative, the City established a lottery system for the units to allow a broader base of persons to be eligible to rent units in Vernon.

Sacramento, California, May 2012. Housing Condition Given the limited housing stock in Vernon, City staff is able to assess housing conditions on an ongoing basis. Although the housing stock is older (largely built before 1950), City staff has determined that all 31 units, or 100% of the housing stock, is well maintained and in good condition. No units have been determined to need replacement. One unit, which had fallen into disrepair, was demolished by its owner in 1992. A major reason for the unusually good quality of housing conditions in Vernon is the City’s ownership of 84 percent of the housing stock and its responsibility for maintaining these units. As needed, the City performs any required repairs and upgrades. The great demand for industrial space in the City means that unnecessary or poorly maintained units are unlikely to remain unless acquired by the City. Housing Affordability The California Health and Safety Code Section 50052.5 provides the following definition of affordable housing cost based on the area median income level (AMI) adjusted by family size and income level: Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 11 Table H-4 Housing Affordability Based on Income Calculation of Affordable Housing Cost for Owner Calculation of Affordable Housing Cost for Renters Extremely Low Income (0-30% MFI) 30% of 30% AMI 30% of 30% AMI Very Low Income (0-50% MFI) 30% of 50% AMI 30% of 50% AMI Lower Income (51-80% MFI) 30% of 70% AMI 30% of 60% AMI Moderate Income (81-120% MFI) 35% of 110% AMI 30% of 110% AMI Because the City’s resident population is so small, household needs are negligible when traditional needs analysis methods are applied. The Comprehensive Housing Affordability Strategy (CHAS)—special 2000 Census tabulations developed by HUD—provides a specific breakdown of household income adjusted for family size. According to CHAS Data, one-quarter of the households in Vernon were low income, earning between 51 and 80 percent of the Los Angeles County median family income (MFI) of $64,800. All other households earned more than 80 percent MFI. Due to the fact that the City owns and rents most of the housing at unusually low monthly rents, housing overpayment is virtually non-existent.1 As of 2012, City-owned apartments and houses largely rented at the following monthly payments, well below market levels for the region: 1-bedroom apartment $120 2-bedroom apartment $240 1-bedroom house $120 2-bedroom house $240 3-bedroom house $360 1 No housing units in the City have been sold in recent years. As such, an estimate of ownership housing costs is unavailable. However, recent (2012) land sales for large industrial sites have been priced at approximately $40 per square foot, depending on location, soil condition and necessary demolition costs. Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 12 Implementation of the good government reforms now underway will result in annual rent increases for persons currently living in the units. Using the California Health and Safety Code’s updated affordability thresholds, current housing affordability at the County level can be estimated for the various income groups (Table H-5). Housing overpayment occurs when a households pays more than 30 percent of gross monthly income on housing costs. A comparison of housing costs in Vernon and maximum affordable prices for low-income households in Los Angeles County shows that the City’s rental rates are well below the maximum affordable rents for very low-income (less than 50% MFI) households, and some one- and two-bedroom apartments may even be affordable to extremely low-income households (although the CHAS data indicate that there are no very low- or extremely low-income households in the City). As such, no households in Vernon experience a housing cost burden. As rental rates rise over time pursuant to the good government reform initiatives, households will experience increased housing costs. Rental rates are anticipated to transition to market rate costs by 2016, as shown below, through annual increases in rent. Additionally, when there is a change in tenancy, new tenants will pay market rate. Market rate costs will be affordable for very low and moderate income households. 1-bedroom unit: $120 to $696 2-bedroom unit: $240 to $1,450 to $839 to $1,450 3-bedroom unit: $240 to $1,114 to $1,000 to $1,700 Certain segments of the population may have a more difficult time finding decent, affordable housing due to special circumstances. Government Code Section 65583(a) requires cities to evaluate the following special needs households in the Housing Element: elderly, disabled persons, developmentally disable persons, large families, female-headed households, farmworkers, and the homeless. Due to the small size of the City’s resident population, the magnitude of households in Vernon with special needs is very small.

According to the 2010 Census, 14 residents in Vernon are age 65 and above, representing 12 percent of the population. The proportion of elderly persons in Vernon is likely to remain low as the majority of the City’s limited housing stock is occupied by working-age persons. Disabled Persons Disability is a physical or mental condition that affects the functioning of a person. Physical disabilities can hinder access to housing units of conventional design, as well as limit the ability to earn adequate income. The Census defines a disability as a long-lasting physical, mental, or emotional condition. This condition can make it difficult for a person to do activities such as walking, climbing stairs, dressing, bathing, learning, or remembering. This condition can also impede a person from being able to go outside the home alone or to work at a job or business. The City’s heavily industrial environment presents added constraints to the disabled. Large volumes of street and rail traffic, and delays caused by trains and parked trucks additionally limit the maneuverability of handicapped individuals. In order to address the needs of its handicapped residents and employees, the City enforces requirements for handicapped accessibility in new construction, and has undertaken a program to install curb ramps for wheelchairs. Developmentally Disabled According to Section 4512 of the Welfare and Institutions Code a "developmental disability" means a disability that originates before an individual attains age 18 years, continues, or can be expected to continue, indefinitely, and constitutes a substantial disability for that individual which includes mental retardation, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and autism. This term shall also include disabling conditions found to be closely related to mental retardation or to require treatment similar to that required for individuals with mental retardation, but shall not include other handicapping conditions that are solely physical in nature. Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 15 The State Department of Developmental Services (DDS) currently provides community based services to persons with developmental disabilities and their families through a statewide system of 21 regional centers, four developmental centers, and two community-based facilities. Vernon is served by the South Central Los Angeles Regional Center and the Frank d. Lanterman Regional Center. These facilities provide point of entry to services for people with developmental disabilities. In Vernon, only one person is a consumer of the services provided at the local Regional Center. In order to assist in the housing needs for persons with developmental disabilities, the City will implement programs to coordinate housing activities and outreach with the Regional Center and, encourage housing providers to designate a portion of new affordable housing developments for persons with disabilities, especially persons with developmental disabilities, and pursue funding sources designated for persons with special needs and disabilities. Large Families/Overcrowding Large families are identified as a group with special housing needs based on the limited availability of adequately sized, affordable housing units. Large households are often of lower income, which can result in the overcrowding of smaller dwelling units and in turn accelerate unit deterioration. The 2010 Census identifies eight renter-occupied households as having five or more members. The City’s industrial character presents similar disadvantages for families with children as it does for the handicapped. Access to residential services, such as education, recreation, and local retail goods and services, is along roadways with high levels of truck traffic, railroad crossings, and loading activities. These conditions make pedestrian access to residential service facilities difficult and often unsafe, particularly for children. In terms of household overcrowding (defined as greater than 1.01 persons per room), the 2010 Census identifies no overcrowded rental or ownership housing in Vernon2. Thus, household overcrowding is not an issue. 2 The 2010 Census indicated that 15 rental housing units were overcrowded, but the margin of error was so high it was not used for this analysis. Also, because the City owns virtually all units in the Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 Housing Element - 16 Female-Headed Households Female-headed households tend to have low incomes, thus limiting housing availability for this group. The 2010 Census identifies two female-headed households in Vernon, representing seven percent of all households. The housing needs of female-headed households of lower income can be addressed through the continued provision of the currently existing affordable housing in the City. Farmworkers According to the 2010 Census, no Vernon residents have Farming, Forestry, and Fishingoccupations. Due to the lack of opportunities for agricultural operations and the highly industrial nature of the City, no farming operations exist in Vernon. As such, the City has no need for farmworker housing. Homeless Throughout the country, homelessness has become an increasing problem. Factors contributing to the rise in homelessness include the general lack of housing affordable to low and moderate-income persons, increases in the number of persons whose incomes fall below the poverty level, reductions in public subsidy to the poor, and the deinstitutionalization of the mentally ill. According to the Gateway Cities Council of Governments Homeless Action Plan, homeless “hotspots” surveys were conducted during the summer and fall of 2011, during which outreach workers noticed homeless couples and individuals sleeping under bridges and around the Los Angeles River on a nightly basis near the City of Vernon. Other than this one-time observation and casual comment, very few homeless persons have been recorded living in Vernon largely because the City is not desirable for the homeless given the City’s industrial environment and its lack of social and residential services. On October 15, 2007, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed into law SB2, which amends Government Code Sections 65582, 65583, and 65589.5 of State Housing Element Law. This legislation requires local jurisdictions to strengthen provisions for addressing housing needs of the homeless, including the community, the City can easily assess whether units are overcrowded. Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 17 identification of a zone or zones where emergency shelters are allowed as a permitted use without a conditional use permit. Due to very low homeless population in the City and the industrial nature of the community, the City’s policy position is that development of emergency shelters in Vernon is not a good solution for addressing regional homelessness issues. Placing a homeless shelter in an area that has been deemed largely inappropriate for new housing due to environmental concerns—including noxious odors from rendering and slaughtering, proximity to hazardous waste sites, and truck traffic pollution and noise—could raise potential environmental justice concerns. A large number of facilities for homeless individuals and families are located within a five-mile radius of the City, in locations that do not have the environmental constraints that exist in Vernon. For example, the Salvation Army Shelter in the city of Bell is a regional emergency shelter offering emergency and transitional care for up to 340 homeless adults, including 154 in the shelter, 128 in the drug and alcohol program, and 49 in longer term transitional housing. In addition to a place to stay, the Bell Shelter provides case management; substance abuse rehabilitation; individual and group therapy/counseling; on-site health care, medical referrals and HIV/AIDS education; job training; on-site adult education classes and life skills classes. However, given that State law requires all jurisdictions to comply SB2 mandates, the City has established an emergency shelter overlay zone to be applied to a single parcel at the northwest corner of the City. Future Housing Needs State law requires jurisdictions to provide for their fair share of regional housing needs. SCAG determines the projected housing needs for Southern California jurisdictions. Future housing needs reflect the number of new units needed in a jurisdiction (future demand), plus an adequate supply of vacant housing to assure mobility and new units to replace losses. These needs were forecast by the 2014-2021 Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA), which considered on a regional and local level: market demand for housing, employment opportunities, availability of suitable sites and public facilities, commuting patterns, type and tenure of Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 Housing Element - 18 housing need, and housing needs of farm workers. The 2014- 2021 RHNA establishes a future housing need of two units in the City of Vernon, with one unit to be affordable to very low- income households and one unit to low-income households. Energy and Water Conservation Compared with Vernon’s energy-intensive industries, housing consumes only a small proportion of the City’s total energy consumption. The City utilizes the California Green Building Standards Code for all construction to minimize energy consumption. Necessary sound insulation on residential units also results in effective heat insulation, thus reducing energy usage. Electric power in Vernon is provided by the City’s local power plant and municipal utility system. The Southern California Gas Company and the City of Vernon Light & Power Department Gas Division provide fuel for most natural gas heating needs, and offers programs for water heater insulation, attic insulation, and water flow limiting devices. Water is provided to all dwelling units either from groundwater pumped by the Vernon Community Services and Water Department or by import from the Metropolitan Water District. Compared to the large local industrial users, residential water use is minimal, and no special conservation steps have been deemed necessary for housing. 3.0 HOUSING CONSTRAINTS 3.1 Governmental Constraints Historically, housing growth has been virtually nonexistent in Vernon due to City policy that has discouraged, and in 2007 precluded, the development of any new residential units. City policy-makers have for decades determined that the pervasive industrial environment and land use incompatibilities related to hazardous materials storage and processing, background contamination, noxious odors, noise pollution, and truck and railroad traffic make Vernon an inappropriate location for new housing. However, as part of the City’s good governance reform initiative, City leaders have agreed to establish a way to allow for a very limited amount of new housing at a location or locations that would not result in significant land use conflicts, would minimize exposure of housing residents to adverse Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 19 environmental conditions, and would provide access to stores, schools, parks, and other amenities that residents would need. The City has made a commitment to amend the Zoning Ordinance to allow for the future development of a limited number of new residential units via a Housing Overlay zone, to be applied to two or fewer parcels. Zoning Ordinance Vernon comprehensively updated its Zoning Ordinance in 2007. The Ordinance did not include any development processes or standards to allow for residential projects, nor did the City have permit processing fees, site improvement requirements, impact fee requirements, or procedures for new residential development. With establishment of the Housing Overlay zone, new permitting procedures and development standards for targeted new residential development are now available. Given the unique conditions in the City and the fact that the sites to which the overlay will be applied are owned by the City, the City permitting process consists of a Development Agreement. In addition, the Housing Overlay zone allows transitional and supportive housing subject to the same permitting processes as other housing in the Housing Overlay zone without any special regulatory requirements. A Development Agreement is considered the most appropriate way to permit housing in Vernon given the unique characteristics of this industrial city. A Development Agreement provides a high degree of flexibility in defining the development standards for a housing project. Through a Development Agreement, the City can work with prospective housing developers to craft the provisions that will apply to site planning, provision of parking and open space, height limits, etc. Because the General Plan allows up to 30 units per acre, a prospective developer can propose innovative approaches to multifamily housing. Rather than establish concrete development standards, Section 26.4.5-5 of the Zoning Ordinance sets forth performance standards for residential development as follows: Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 Housing Element - 20 “Sec. 26.4.5-5 Findings. After a public hearing, the City Council shall approve a proposed residential development and related Development Agreement only after first making all of the following findings: a)The design, location, size, and operating characteristics of the proposed residential will be compatible with the existing land uses in the vicinity; b)The proposed density is consistent with density standards and all applicable policies contained in the General Plan; c)The site and site plan are physically suitable in terms of design, location, shape, size, and the provision of public and emergency vehicle access, and public services and utilities, including but not limited to (fire protection, police protection, potable water, schools, sewerage, solid waste collection and disposal, storm drainage, and wastewater collection, treatment, and disposal; d)On-site traffic circulation for pedestrians and vehicles is designed into the development to allow residents to move easily through the development and to avoid pedestrian/vehicular conflicts and further, to ensure appropriate access for fire and police response and surveillance equal to or better than what would normally be created by compliance with the Site Planning Standards of Section 26.4.1-7; e)The proposed project provides suitable, usable common and/or private open space that will meet the passive and/or active recreation needs of the resident. Common open space areas and setbacks are provided with landscaping and other improvements suitable for the development proposed; f)The proposed project provides adequate parking to meet the residents’ needs and to avoid parking impacts on surrounding properties; g)Refuse/recycling collection areas are located to provide easy access to for all residents and collection vehicles, and to minimize noise impacts on residents; Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 21 h)To the extent feasible, the project design incorporates sustainable development features.” Given the flexibility of these standards and the need to address unique conditions in Vernon, the requirement for a Development Agreement is not considered a constraint. In fact, in response to a request for proposals for housing development on the site on 52nd Street, the City received five submittals and selected the one which can achieve objectives for providing affordable housing. Renovation, Restoration, Maintenance, and Repair The City will continue to permit the renovation, restoration, maintenance, and repair of existing residential uses. Residential rehabilitation projects are permitted in Vernon, and the rehabilitation is a “Minor Alteration or Repair,” as defined in the Zoning Ordinance (less than 50 percent of the fair market value of the buildings on the lot).3 As a practical matter, the expansive definition of “Minor Alteration or Repair” and lack of development standards result in limited governmental constraints (other than complying with the building code) that would prevent a homeowner from upgrading or improving a residence within the existing square footage. If the hard costs of improvements equal or exceed, over a three- year period, 50 percent of the then-current fair market value of the building, then the improvement, if voluntary, will be defined as a “Major Alteration or Repair” and terminate the legal nonconforming status of the residence. A Major Alteration or Repair is considered to be the functional equivalent of a tear-down and re-build, which the City does not permit, for the same reasons that it does not permit new construction of residences. However, if the Major Alteration or Repair is necessitated by a natural disaster, such as an earthquake or fire, the owner does have the right to rebuild the residence. At that time, the development standards for the home would be developed. The City did not undertake to 3 A minor alteration is that for which the hard costs charged, incurred, or paid for such renovation, alteration, or repair, over a three year period, commencing when the permit required is issued, or if no permit is required, when the physical portion of the renovation, alteration, or repair is commenced, is less than 50 percent of the current fair market value of all of the buildings located on the same lot. Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 Housing Element - 22 develop those criteria at this time since there are only five private residences in Vernon. The Major Alteration provision does not constrain the maintenance of the existing housing stock, as property owners are permitted to undertake a broad array of improvements that extend the life of residential structures and improve unit conditions. Under State law, any and all such improvements can be pursued consistent with Health & Safety Code Section 17922(d) and Section 17958.8 relating to the alteration and repair of existing buildings. Section 17922(d) relates to the standards adopted by the State, which the Zoning Ordinance in no way invalidates. This section discusses the use of original materials and methods for the repair, replacement, or extension as long as it meets Building Code standards. The Zoning Ordinance has no provisions or limitations on the construction materials utilized. Section 17958.8 is similar, as it is addresses the use of original construction materials and methods. Nothing in the Zoning Ordinance or Building Code prohibits the use of original materials and methods, with the exception of an unreinforced masonry structure, which would have to be seismically retrofitted. As no residential units in Vernon are constructed of unreinforced masonry, this does not affect any housing units. All residential units in the City are in good condition, with no units requiring a major alteration during the planning period. Of those units owned by the City, the City intends to renovate seven units due to age, although all are currently in good, habitable condition. These seven units have had new HVAC systems installed in recent years. No residential property owners have proposed major renovations to their properties. Residential property owners participated in the recent Zoning Ordinance revision process, and none expressed opposition to the standards that apply to existing, nonconforming residential structures in the City, including the prohibitions on increasing square footage and undertaking major alterations. All residences – whether owned by the City or others – are in good condition, according to City staff. As described above, residential rehabilitation that constitutes a minor alteration (costing, over a three year period, less than 50 percent of the market value of the building) is permitted. Because minor alterations are permitted and existing standards will allow renovations of these units, the limit on major alterations is not considered an impact to the Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 23 maintenance and improvement of the City’s housing stock. As discussed later in this section, to accommodate housing needs of the disabled, the Zoning Ordinance has be revised to remove restrictions on major alterations as needed through the implementation of reasonable accommodation procedures. It is the City’s intent to encourage and actively participate in the rehabilitation of existing residential units. The process is straightforward and not burdensome; there is no entitlement process required for rehabilitation projects. Residential rehabilitation projects that are Minor Alterations or Repairs and do not exceed the existing square footage require only a building permit. The building permit process timeframe depends on the complexity of the renovation. Complex renovations involving new electrical systems, plumbing, etc. can take up to three weeks to process. The City has no intention of removing any of the 31 units in the City, as all units are in good condition. Replacement of housing units that have been demolished or destroyed due to force majeure (defined as an event that is not within the control of the owner of the property, including, without limitation, earthquake, flood, fire, and acts of war or terrorism) are permitted. A building permit would be required, and a housing unit would be permitted to be rebuilt up to the existing building square footage. The development standards for the reconstructed dwelling would be determined at that time. Building Code Amendments The City has adopted the California Building Code with some minor local amendments related primarily to industrial buildings in the City. Per Health and Safety Code Sections 17958.5 and 17958.7, the City made required findings and filed such findings with the California Building Standards Commission. The amendments include administrative processes such as the establishment of City permit fees and appeals boards, as well as requirements specific to hazardous and industrial uses such as fire access roads, spray booths, and storage of explosive and flammable materials. Vernon has also made additional amendments to protect the safety of workers and residents within the City. Specifically, the City requires all wiring to be in a metallic conduit, to protect workers and residents from hazards of accidentally driving a nail or screw through wiring. There is a marginal cost increase associated Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 Housing Element - 24 with this precaution, but the benefit associated with safer installation outweighs the cost. The City has also made amendments to require Class A and B roofing material, which is more fire resistive and can stop the potential spread of fire. While this type of roofing material may be more expensive than some standard materials, this amendment is necessary to prevent and quickly extinguish fires that may have far more costly impacts. As such, no restrictions or amendments have been adopted in the Building Code that would constrain housing in the City. Permit and Infrastructure Fees The City assesses various fees to cover the costs of permit processing (Table H-6). Most of the fees charged are flat fees based on the cost of services, or tiered fees based on the size and cost of the improvement. Fees charged are comparable to surrounding communities in Los Angeles County, and as such, do not pose a constraint to housing maintenance and preservation. Owners intending to renovate or improve existing residential units are required to obtain a building permit for a minor alteration. The fee, which is reviewed annually, is based on the cost of the improvement. Because future residential development will occur on no more than two parcels on properties owned by the City, no special fees will be required for processing development applications. The vehicle for approving projects will be through a Development Agreement with the City. Because the development will occur on existing lots well served by streets, water lines, sewer lines, and all other urban- level infrastructure, no off-site improvements will be required to allow housing development to proceed.

Enforcement of building code standards does not constrain the improvement of housing in Vernon but instead serves to maintain or improve the condition of the limited, existing housing stock. Of the 31 units in the City, only five are not owned by the City. City staff has investigated and determined that none of these Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 Housing Element - 26 five units requires significant rehabilitation. At this time, an active code enforcement program is unwarranted due to the limited number of privately owned units (five) and the fact all units are currently in good condition and continue to be well maintained by the owners. The City encourages active maintenance of the housing stock, as evidenced by the extensive rehabilitation the City has undertaken on those housing units that it owns. Community Services Staff is active in the community, and will respond to any visible code enforcement violations or complaints that may require rehabilitation of units. Property owners are permitted and encouraged to perform proper upkeep and maintenance, which can include renovations, as long as the existing square footage is not exceeded and the cost of the renovation, over a three-year period, does not exceed 50 percent of the market value of buildings on the lot. For all practical purposes, all other controls, permit processes, and fees do not constrain the maintenance and preservation of the City’s housing stock. Constraints to Housing for Persons with Disabilities The City has adopted the California Building Standards Code. Standards within the Code of the City of Vernon (through the adoption of the California Building Standards Code) include provisions to ensure accessibility for persons with disabilities. These standards are consistent with the Americans with Disabilities Act. No local amendments that would constrain accessibility or increase the cost of housing for persons with disabilities have been adopted, except that the Zoning Ordinance would not permit the floor area of the residence to be increased or permit any major alterations that equal or exceed 50 percent of the current fair market value of the buildings on the lot. These restrictions have been addressed the implementation of a reasonable accommodation procedures to accommodate housing needs of the disabled (discussed below). Definition of Family Sometimes, a city’s definition of “family” can limit access to housing for persons with disabilities when the word is narrowly defined. This can illegally limit the use of housing as group homes for persons with disabilities, but not limit housing for families. The Vernon Zoning Ordinance does not define family, and therefore is nondiscriminatory in its application. Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 27 Reasonable Accommodation The Fair Housing Act, as amended in 1988, requires that cities and counties provide reasonable accommodation to rules, policies, practices, and procedures where such accommodation may be necessary to afford individuals with disabilities equal housing opportunities. While fair housing laws intend that all people have equal access to housing, the law also recognizes that people with disabilities may need extra tools to achieve equality. Reasonable accommodation is one of the tools intended to further housing opportunities for people with disabilities. Reasonable accommodation provides a means of requesting from the local government flexibility in the application of land use and zoning and building regulations or, in some instances, even a waiver of certain restrictions or requirements because it is necessary to achieve equal access to housing. Cities and counties are required to consider requests for accommodations related to housing for people with disabilities, and to provide the accommodation when it is determined to be “reasonable” based on fair housing laws and the case law interpreting the statutes. State law allows for a statutorily based four-part analysis to be used in evaluating requests for reasonable accommodation related to land use and zoning matters and can be incorporated into a reasonable accommodation ordinance or procedures. This analysis gives great weight to furthering the housing needs of people with disabilities and also considers the impact or effect of providing the requested accommodation on the City and its overall zoning scheme. Developers and providers of housing for people with disabilities must be ready to address each element of the following four-part analysis: The housing that is the subject of the request for reasonable accommodation is for people with disabilities as defined in federal or state fair housing laws; The reasonable accommodation requested is necessary to make specific housing available to people with disabilities who are protected under fair housing laws; The requested accommodation will not impose an undue financial or administrative burden on the local government; and Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 Housing Element - 28 The requested accommodation will not result in a fundamental alteration in the local zoning ordinance. The City abides by the Fair Housing Act, and has instituted a clearly defined process for making requests for reasonable accommodation to provide exceptions in zoning, land-use, permitting processes, and building codes. The City has developed reasonable accommodation procedures in its Zoning Ordinance and will provide information on the procedures on the City’s website (Housing Element Program 4). The State has removed any City discretion for review of small group homes for persons with disabilities (six or fewer residents). The City does not impose additional zoning, building code, or permitting procedures other than those allowed by State law. The City does not impose special permit procedures or requirements that could impede the retrofitting of homes for accessibility. A retrofit would be permitted as a minor alteration (requiring a building permit), as long as the cost of the retrofit was less than 50 percent of the market value of the buildings. The City’s requirements for building permits are standard, straightforward, and not burdensome. No CUP or other special permitting requirements are required for retrofitting homes for accessibility. The City’s adopted reasonable accommodation procedures are ministerial and include, but not be limited to, identifying who may request a reasonable accommodation (i.e., persons with disabilities, family-members, landlords, etc.), timeframes for decision-making, and provision for relief from the various land-use, zoning, or building regulations that may constrain the housing for persons of disabilities. The procedure also includes consideration of allowing an increase in habitable floor area of an existing residence to accommodate disabled persons. The City will also explore the feasibility of offering fee reductions for permit processes that involve retrofitting residences for accessibility purposes. Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 29 3.2 Non-governmental Constraints to Housing In Vernon, limited land is available which would be suitable for the development of housing. The Housing Element inventory of vacant and underutilized sites identifies two potential sites for residential development. The limited sites available for residential development are due to serious environmental conditions which render the majority of sites throughout Vernon unsuitable for residential development. Environmental factors affecting potential residential development are related to hazardous materials storage and processing, background contamination, noxious odors, noise pollution, and truck and railroad traffic generated by the City’s pervasive industrial land uses. Inadequate access to residential services is an additional constraint to residential development in the City. These factors contribute to the limited number of sites available for residential development. Market Constraints Government Code Section 65583(a)(5) requires communities to include an analysis of potential and actual nongovernmental constraints upon the maintenance, improvement, or development of housing for all income levels, including the availability of financing, the price of land, and the cost of construction. Based upon information regarding the Vernon commercial and industrial market, recent (2012) sales for large developed industrial sites have been priced at approximately $96 per square foot, depending on location, soil condition, and necessary demolition costs.4 Effective land costs, which also include remediation required to make old industrial sites developable for residential use, make the cost of land significantly higher. Land costs for vacant sites have been priced at approximately $1.4 million per acre of land ($31 per square foot of vacant land). 5 Additional costs that would also have to be incurred to make land suitable for residential development include testing for ground contamination, remediation for residential development, and providing minimum safety and nuisance improvements.

Because the majority of the City’s housing stock is owned and managed by the City, maintenance and improvements are overseen and funded by the City. As such, there are no market constraints on the maintenance of housing in the City. The City actively performs maintenance and repairs on all City-owned buildings. Hazardous Materials With its history as an industrial City dating to incorporation in 1903, heavy and prolonged industrial use in Vernon is reflected in the following conditions (refer to Figure H-2): A high concentration of both underground (38 facilities with 82 underground storage tanks) and above-ground hazardous material storage tanks throughout the City. There are also 20 leaking underground storage tanks clean-up sites. Within the City, approximately 570 businesses handle/store hazardous materials. Thirty-eight of these businesses handle high levels of extremely dangerous materials regulated by the State.

Six sites in Vernon are on the EPA Superfund List, but none of them are on the National Priority List. Approximately 130 miles of railroad track historically treated with herbicides for weed control. Rights-of way show patterns of contamination from spilling, overfilling, or transfer of chemicals. Four California EPA-permitted hazardous waste treatment, storage and disposal facilities Ten closed landfill sites Overfilling storage tanks, leaking pipes, and leaking tanks have resulted in residual soil contamination in Vernon. Sixteen sites have been declared Proposition 65 sites (determined by laboratory tests to have excessive carcinogenic or teratogenic chemical contamination). Remediation plans are required to decontaminate the soil. Due to high background and other petroleum contamination and lack of feasible clean-up options, several sites were remediated with covenants being recorded to advise future purchasers of the presence of contamination. Due to public health concerns, these sites would be unsuitable for future sensitive land uses such as housing. A significant potential for chemical spills or accidents exists due to the high concentration of underground storage tanks in Vernon. The City’s Underground Tank Program has resulted in the removal of over 1,000 tanks. Additionally, where structures were threatened by tank removal, numerous underground tanks were abandoned in place. Another component of hazardous materials control in Vernon is the “right to know” program. All businesses in the City are required to submit inventories of all hazardous materials used or stored. The City currently has 571 businesses that handle or store hazardous materials. Class C businesses with very high maximum daily volumes (2,001 to 1,000,000 pounds) are the most prevalent, and are located throughout the City. The risk Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 33 of upset from businesses handling such high volumes of chemicals, many of which are toxic, is a factor that must be considered in land use planning. If high levels of certain highly toxic chemicals are present in a business’ hazardous materials inventory, these businesses are further regulated through the California Accidental Release Prevention Program (CALARP). Such businesses are required to provide the City’s Environmental Health Department with a CALARP report detailing how they plan to prevent the release of such chemicals, as well as presenting a plan for clean-up and notification if there were an accidental release. Such regulated chemicals include ammonia and chlorine gas and could impact a large geographic area if released. As illustrated in Figure H-2, Vernon currently has 38 businesses regulated under CALARP. The locations of businesses throughout the community with underground storage tanks and/or use or storage of chemical materials indicate that the entire City is subject to chemical spills or accidents, thereby illustrating its inappropriateness for future residential development. In summary, Vernon’s prolonged history as an industrial City has resulted in significant background contamination. Industries that store or use hazardous materials are pervasive throughout the City. Noxious Odors Numerous industries that generate noxious odors operate in Vernon, including several focused on the slaughtering and rendering of animals. Overlay districts have been designated in the City’s General Plan and Zoning Ordinance to isolate the locations of offensive industrial uses responsible for excessive noxious odors. These overlay districts include a “Slaughtering Overlay” for uses which involve the slaughtering of animals, and a “Rendering Overlay” for the location of rendering facilities. These uses generate significant adverse effects related to odor and release of toxic materials, making residential land uses highly incompatible within their vicinity. Revisions to the Zoning Ordinance will include new standards to address odor control in the Rendering and Slaughtering Overlay Districts. Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 Housing Element - 34 Noise As could be expected in a highly industrial city, properties in Vernon are exposed to high levels of noise emanating from stationary industrial activity, as well as from trucks, automobiles, and railroad operations. Numerous companies operate equipment such as large presses and pumps which produce excessive vibrations and generate noise well beyond the level of acceptability for noise-sensitive land uses within the vicinity. Arterial roadways in Vernon have a very high proportion of truck traffic (approximately 30 percent), thereby intensifying noise levels along the City’s roadways. In addition, four main railroad lines and a number of switching operations are located in the City, and these generate significant levels of noise day and night. Figure H-3, derived from the Noise Element, presents noise contours developed for Vernon in 2007 as part of the update to the General Plan. The Zoning Ordinance establishes a one-hour standard of 65 dB(A) between 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M. within 0.10 mile of a school or residence, and a 60 dB(A) standard between 10:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M. within 0.10 mile of a school or residence. As evidenced by the contour map, most properties in Vernon are exposed to noise levels of 65 CNEL6 or greater, and therefore are normally incompatible with sensitive land uses. The noise contours are based on roadway traffic and do not account for stationary noise sources. The probability is that areas mapped as being outside the 65 dB CNEL may in fact experience excessive noise levels from intermittent or other sources. Truck and Railroad Traffic Vernon is traversed by approximately 130 miles of railroad tracks, with approximately 96 at-grade and seven grade- separated railroad crossings. As previously mentioned, truck traffic is extremely heavy, comprising nearly one-third of all traffic in the City. These conditions not only contribute to excessive noise levels, but also create safety hazards for pedestrians, particularly a problem for the elderly, persons with disabilities, and families with children. 6 Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL) is a noise measure that accounts for increased human sensitivity to noise at night.

Some spur tracks have been eliminated, but have been replaced by truck transportation. Also, the rail lines are being considered as routes for future transit rail traffic connecting Orange County to downtown Los Angeles’ Union Station. Figure H-4 indicates the principal transportation elements that contribute to noise and pollution in the City of Vernon: the Long Beach Freeway, arterial roadways, collector streets and mainline railroads. Residential Service Adequacy Residential development requires the provision of services to meet the needs of the resident population. Services provided at the municipal level include education, recreation, and local retail goods and services. While few such residential services are situated within Vernon, they are generally located within close enough proximity to adequately serve currently existing residences in the City via car or public transportation. However, access to these residential services is along roadways with high levels of track traffic, railroad crossings, and loading activities. These conditions make pedestrian access to residential service facilities difficult and unsafe, particularly for children. However, areas that border the residential neighborhoods of the adjacent city of Maywood are in close proximity to community services, including schools, parks, and local shopping. Summary of Constraints to Residential Development Environmental degradation related to hazardous materials and background contamination, noxious odors, noise pollution and truck and railroad traffic present land use conflicts for future residential development in the City. In addition, the lack of adequate, safe access to residential services acts to constrain housing opportunities in Vernon. Although extensive industrial development throughout Vernon has resulted in environmental conditions that limit new housing sites, one or two areas along the City’s southern boundary could potentially accommodate a very limited amount of new residential development to meet the City’s good governance commitment to the State legislature.

The City’s policy over many decades has been to discourage development of any new housing units. However, given the City’s commitment to the State legislature to expand the voter base, sites must be identified where 30 to 50 new units could be built in Vernon, provided that impacts associated with pervasive industrial operations and extensive site contamination can be wholly addressed, and further provided that housing sites provide new residents with suitable access to schools, open space, and shopping. Proposed sites for new residential housing would be preferred along Vernon’s boundaries, near residential neighborhoods in the adjacent cities of Maywood and Huntington Park. These areas are less impacted from Vernon industrial uses and trucking traffic, but also have good access to services and amenities that support established residential neighborhoods in these adjacent cities. To assess the current potential for residential development in Vernon as required under Housing Element statutes, staff has identified both vacant properties and underutilized buildings, defined as dilapidated and/or unreinforced masonry structures suitable for demolition. City staff conducted a field survey of vacant and underutilized properties throughout the entire City. Although some of these sites are located throughout the City, staff subsequently narrowed the potential sites down to areas in the City that are in close proximity to community services and amenities. Potential sites within the Commercial Overlay District were also dismissed due to the potential impacts to residential uses being close to industrial uses. In addition, a key consideration was to ensure that any new residential development would not impede the ability of existing or future adjacent industrial properties to attract a broad range of industrial users, consistent with the City’s mission. To permit housing at the potential sites identified, the City is amending the Land Use Element to establish a Housing Overlay, where residential uses are permitted at a density of up Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 39 to 30 units per acre. A similar approach is being used in the Zoning Ordinance to correspond to the General Plan designation. In the Zoning Ordinance, the Housing (-H) overlay district will allow housing development with approval of a Development Agreement. This approach is being used given Vernon’s unique character as an industrial city. The Development Agreement will provide for maximum flexibility for development standards while ensuring appropriate features are incorporated into a project to address surrounding industrial businesses in Vernon. The Zoning Ordinance provisions for the Housing overlay district include that all Development Agreements, at a minimum address those standards outlined on pages 20 and 21 of this element. Potential Residential Housing Sites Two vacant sites and underutilized properties were considered to have some limited potential for residential development, and one site was identified as having the potential to accommodate emergency housing. These sites are described in Table H-7. The following discussion evaluates these sites in terms of environmental safety and residential service adequacy.

The south side of 52nd Drive is a residential neighborhood located in Maywood. The site is approximately 500 feet southeast of the Atlantic Boulevard and District Boulevard intersection, and several hundred feet south of the Los Angeles River. Site A is entirely vacant. North of the site is a railroad line, and to the southeast Vernon General Plan Housing Element 2014-2021 Housing Element - 40 is Sanchez Upholstery Supply. Cal SDM, Inc., a custom metal fabrication shop and steam boiler company, is located to the northeast, across from the railroad tracks. Site B Site B is a half-acre site located in the southwestern portion of Vernon, near the intersection of District Boulevard, Fruitland Avenue, and Cudahy Avenue. The site is bounded by 52nd Street to the south, Fruitland Avenue to the north, and Cudahy Avenue to the east. The property shares three of its property boundaries with the City of Maywood. The site includes a dilapidated warehouse structure built in the 1930s that occupies nearly 50 percent of the site. The remaining site includes an asphalt area overgrown with weeds. Site B is surrounded by Pacific Coast Chemical (in Vernon) to the north, a parking area (in Maywood) to the west, residential uses (in Maywood) to the south, a union assembly hall (in Maywood) to the east, and Maywood Elementary School (in Maywood) to the southeast. Potential Emergency Shelter Sites Site C Site C is a 1.6-acre site located on the southeast corner of Alameda Street and 25th Street, immediately east of the Alameda Corridor. The site is primarily vacant and includes the remains of a building foundation. The site is bounded by produce distributors to the south, a pallet storage business to the southeast, a warehouse building to the east, and the Alameda Corridor to the west and north. Environmental Safety Environmental conditions in Vernon are generally incompatible with residential uses. However, the sites chosen for potential residential development and emergency shelters are located along the City’s periphery. The land uses surrounding the sites listed in Table H-9 include vacant lots, residential uses, a chemical distributor, an upholstery supply warehouse, an assembly hall, and an elementary school. All of the sites are exposed to truck traffic due to their locations near Alameda Street, Atlantic Boulevard, and District Boulevard. Site B is located near the intersection of 52nd Street and District Boulevard, which are both Collectors. Site C is Vernon General Plan 2014-2021 Housing Element Housing Element - 41 located at the intersection at Alameda Street, an Arterial, and 25th Street, a Collector. Site C is located along the Alameda Corridor, which includes a below-ground, triple-tracked rail line. The Noise Contour Map (Figure H-3) shows that 2007 noise levels exceed 70 CNEL all along the Alameda Corridor and I- 710 freeway, indicating residential uses are normally incompatible and should be discouraged. This would primarily affect the Site C, a potential location for emergency shelters. Site A and B are exposed to noise levels below 70 CNEL. Noxious odors are primarily related to numerous industries in Vernon involved in the slaughtering and rendering of animals, geographically concentrated within the General Plan Slaughtering and Rendering Overlay Districts east of Soto Street. All of the potential housing sites (Sites A, B, and C) are located more than one-half mile from these districts, and will not likely be subjected to the odor impacts, depending on prevailing wind conditions. City records indicate that all three potential housing and emergency shelter sites are exposed to levels of hazardous materials from underground tanks, soil contamination, and chemicals used for operations in the adjacent area. With approximately 570 businesses currently using or storing hazardous materials, over 80 underground storage tanks, and four hazardous waste treatment facilities, the presence of hazardous materials and hazardous waste is evident throughout the City. A total of 37 businesses utilize regulated substances containing highly toxic materials (CALARP). If an accidental release were to occur at any of these 37 facilities, evacuation would be required for a large geographic area. Table H-8 and Table H-9 describe the locational characteristics of each site and the nearby sources of toxic materials.

However, new residential development in Vernon would also require that the new residents be provided basic residential services. The services provided at the local level include education, recreation, and grocery shopping. The estimated distances to these facilities from each site are presented in Table H-10. The California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (TCAC) has established criteria for appropriate distances between residential uses and services, and provides the basis for evaluating residential service adequacy in Vernon. TCAC’s distance criteria for public elementary, middle and high schools is a maximum of one-half mile from residential development. The nearest elementary school to potential residential Sites A and B sites is Maywood Elementary in Maywood; the nearest middle school is Nimitz Middle School in Huntington Park; and the nearest high school is Maywood Academy High School in Maywood. As indicated in Table H-9, both Sites A and B meet the one-half mile locational criteria for elementary schools. The TCAC has established a maximum one-mile distance criteria within inner city areas for the distance between residential development and a full-scale supermarket where grocery staples, fresh meat, and produce are sold. The closest full service grocery store to the potential residential sites in Vernon is a Food 4 Less, located on Slauson Avenue in Maywood. Review of Table H-9 indicates that both Sites A and B meets are located within one- mile of a Food 4 Less in Maywood. The TCAC’s locational criteria for public parks is a maximum of one-half mile from residential development. The nearest park to Sites A and B is Maywood Park at the intersection of 58th Street and Heliotrope Avenue in the City of Maywood. Adjacent to the park is the Maywood Activity Center, which includes a community center, gym, and indoor basketball court. Site A meets the one-half mile locational criteria for parks facility (Maywood Park). Site B is located approximately one mile away from Maywood Park.

Both Sites A and B are located across the street from residential uses in the City of Maywood. Both sites are within walking distance to Maywood Elementary School and less than two miles from a junior high school, high school, grocery store, and park and community center. Due to the close proximity to Maywood’s residential neighborhoods, it makes if easier for children and adults to walk to residential services and avoid the truck traffic and railroad crossings typically found in the center of Vernon. Summary of Housing Opportunities Although future residential development is inappropriate in Vernon due to its pervasive industrial character, the shift in policy to allow for an increase in the City’s population to enhance government accountability has led the City to identify two sites for potential housing development and one site for emergency shelters. The potential sites are suited for residential use since they are generally close to schools and groceries stores located in adjacent communities. The number of residential units that would be could be built on these two sites will be able to accommodate the City’s RHNA of two future housing units. The following describes the City’s quantified objectives for the 2014-2021 planning period by income group. Since most of the City-owned residential dwelling units have undergone some rehabilitation since 2007, the City anticipates rehabilitating only seven City-owned residential units. As the remaining seven that were not renovated become vacant, the City will consider rehabilitating these units. (New HVAC systems were installed in these units in recent years.) The five privately owned residential units are considered in good condition and not in need of major repair; therefore, for this planning period, no rehabilitation of dwelling units are planned. In quantifying dwelling unit Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 46 production goals in Vernon, the City wants to conserve and preserve all existing 31 housing units in the City. The City would like to produce up to 49 dwelling units, where at least two are for low and very low income categories. Table H-11 Quantified Objectives for 2014-2021 Category Very Low Income Low Income Moderate Income Above Moderate Income New Construction 2 47 0 0 Rehabilitated 0 0 7 0 Conserved 0 0 31 0 Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 47 5.0 HOUSING PLAN The Housing Plan for the Vernon Housing Element sets forth goals, policies, and implementing programs to address the housing needs particular to the City of Vernon. Prior to presenting the goals, policies, and programs, an evaluation of the programs in the previous Housing Element (2000) is presented as a foundation for developing the Plan for the 2008-2014 Housing Element. 5.1 Evaluation of Previous Accomplishments State law (California Government Code Section 65588(a)) requires each jurisdiction to review its housing element as frequently as appropriate and evaluate: The appropriateness of the housing goals, objectives, and policies in contributing to the attainment of the state housing goal; The effectiveness of the housing element in attainment of the community’s housing goals and objectives; and The progress in implementation of the housing element. Table H-12 shows the progress the City made in implementing the 2008-2014 Housing Programs. An analysis of the effectiveness and continued appropriateness of these programs is provided, and the goals, policies, and programs from the 2008-2014 Housing Element have been updated to reflect this evaluation. The major focus of housing policy in Vernon is to preserve the existing housing stock in the City and to ensure that existing housing in the City is well maintained. A secondary goal is to identify a site or sites suitable for new housing pursuant to the City’s good governance initiative, and a site that can accommodate emergency shelters pursuant to the requirements of SB2. The Housing Element addresses the health and safety of residents living on or adjacent to industrial sites. The City actively discourages the occupation or construction of dwelling units on or near industrial sites since activities on industrial sites includes operations potentially hazardous to residents. In addition, all units are required to have adequate insulation, air conditioning, approved air and water filtration systems, and sound insulation to Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 48 reduce potentially adverse air quality and noise-related impacts from adjacent industrial uses.7 7 Vernon does not require an adequate sites implementation/rezone program per Government Code Section 65584.09; the City’s RHNA of zero required no sites during the previous planning period. Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 49 Table H-11 Housing Element Accomplishments for 2008-2014 Planning Period Policy/Program Accomplishments Goal H-1: Ensure that all housing units are maintained in decent, safe, and sanitary condition. Policy 1.1 Continue to enforce all relevant building and zoning codes to ensure that all residential units are adequately maintained. Progress: The City's Department of Community Services is responsible for code enforcement activities. Due to the limited number of units in the City, staff can accurately monitor all units and has determined that all are in good repair. Effectiveness: The City has been effective in maintaining housing conditions in the City, and responds to complaints as needed. By 2008, the City completed fully renovating 19 City-owned dwelling units and added heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems and upgraded the insulation in seven other units. Continued Appropriateness: Code enforcement is an important component that ensures that the limited number of units in the City remains in good repair. Program 1 Maintenance of City-Owned Residences Program 2 Code Enforcement Policy 1.2 Require any remodeled residential units to be equipped with air conditioning and sound insulation to protect residents from exposure to adverse environmental conditions. Progress: The City actively pursues maintenance on City-owned units, providing renovations on vacated units and repairs as needed on occupied units. Effectiveness: The City successfully completed the renovation of 19 units in 2008. Renovations included adding HVAC systems, and providing insulation for sound protection and energy conservation purposes. Continued Appropriateness: The City owns a majority of residences in Vernon. The City is fully involved with the maintenance and upkeep of the properties, and will continue to provide these services on other units, as they are needed. All remodeled units will be required to provide HVAC systems and sound insulation protection, such as dual paned windows. Policy 1.3 Mitigate any residential displacement impacts occurring as a result of residential demolition. Progress: No residential units were demolished during the last planning period. Effectiveness: The City is committed to maintaining the existing housing units in the City. Continued Appropriateness: The City's primary housing goal is to preserve the existing housing units. The City is committed to mitigating residential displacement impacts, should they occur. Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 50 Table H-11 Housing Element Accomplishments for 2008-2014 Planning Period Policy/Program Accomplishments Goal H-2: Maintain all existing dwelling units within the City. Policy 2.1 Provide for the retention of existing residential units in the City that are economically and physically sound. Progress: All units in the City were retained during the last planning period. Effectiveness: The 31 residential units in the City have all been determined to be in good condition. Continued Appropriateness: The major focus of housing policy prior to 2012 in Vernon was to preserve the existing housing stock and maintain safe and viable housing units. Policy 2.2 The City will accommodate the needs of disabled residents through establishment of a reasonable accommodation ordinance or procedures for existing units. Progress: As of 2012, there are no assisted housing units in the City. The City did not allow new housing prior to 2012. Effectiveness: While there are no federally or state-assisted units in Vernon, the City owns 26 of the 31 housing units in Vernon. These units are rented at levels that are affordable to very low-income tenants. City policy focuses on retention and maintenance of the 31 existing housing units, with no plans for removal of any units, City- owned or otherwise. Continued Appropriateness: While there is no assisted housing in the City that requires monitoring, the City continued this program in the 2008 Housing Element, discussing assisted housing to address Government Code Section 65583(a)(8). Program 3 Preservation of Assisted Housing Goal H-3: Continue to promote the availability of a range in existing unit types and sizes, and equal housing opportunity in the City’s housing market on the basis of age, race, sex, marital status, ethnic background, source of income, and other factors. Policy 3.1 Prohibit discrimination in the availability of existing housing. Progress: The City has not been advised of any discriminatory practices that have occurred in regards to the availability of housing. The City will take a proactive approach in enforcing antidiscrimination laws. Effectiveness: The City has received no complaints regarding any discriminatory actions and will continue to enforce all fair housing law. Continued Appropriateness: Prior to 2012, the City's Zoning Ordinance did not allow the development of new housing in the City. As such, housing discrimination related to the siting of housing was not an issue. This program was updated in 2008 to address a range of fair housing concerns related to the existing housing stock, including access for persons with disabilities or special needs, providing greater access to equal housing opportunity. Program 4 Housing Opportunities for Residents with Special Needs Program 5 Equal Housing Opportunity Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 51 5.2 Goals and Policies GOAL H-1: Ensure that all housing units are maintained in decent, safe, and sanitary condition. POLICY H-1.1: Continue to enforce all relevant building and zoning codes to ensure that all residential units are adequately maintained. POLICY H-1.2: Require any new or residential units undergoing a major alteration to be equipped with air filtration systems (such as HVAC systems) and sounds insulation (such as dual-paned windows) to protect residents from exposure to adverse environmental conditions. POLICY H-1.3: Mitigate any residential displacement impacts occurring as a result of residential demolition. GOAL H-2: Maintain all existing dwelling units within the City. POLICY H-2.1: Provide for the retention of existing residential units in the City that are economically and physically sound. POLICY H-2.2: Continue to accommodate the needs of disabled residents through the adopted reasonable accommodation procedure. GOAL H-3: Create opportunities for the development of new housing in areas of the City that have the least potential for adverse impacts associated with established industrial uses and truck routes. Locate such new housing nearby community services. POLICY H-3.1: Implement the Housing Overlay Zone via the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning map to allow for a limited amount of new housing construction. POLICY H-3.2: Strategically locate sites for new housing so as to minimize noise, vibration, smoke, noxious gases, glare, heat, dust, odors, air pollution, and other adverse impacts associated with industrial uses, slaughtering and rendering uses, businesses that Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 52 release toxic materials, and trucking and railroad facilities and routes. POLICY H-3.3: Encourage development of residential uses in strategic proximity to schools, recreational facilities, commercial areas, parks and other public spaces, and transit routes. GOAL H-4: Continue to promote the availability of a range in existing unit types and sizes, and equal housing opportunity in the City’s housing market on the basis of age, race, sex, marital status, ethnic background, source of income, homelessness, physical disabilities, and other factors. POLICY H-4.1: Prohibit discrimination in the availability of existing and new housing. POLICY H-4.2: Address the housing needs of special populations and extremely low-income households through emergency shelters, transitional housing, supportive housing, and single-room occupancy units. 5.3 Programs As discussed in this Element, the Vernon City Council has adopted several good governance reform measures, including a commitment to at least double the housing stock within the City. Residential development is will be permitted at strategic locations in Vernon. SCAG adopted a future housing need of two units in Vernon as part of the 2014-2021 Regional Housing Needs Assessment, recognizing that although incompatibility of locating housing in such a heavy industrial environment may not be appropriate, there may be certain areas in Vernon where housing may be suitable. As such, programs to increase the City’s housing stock are included below. As indicated in the goals and policies, the primary goals of the Housing Element is to ensure the maintenance of the City’s existing housing stock and to allow for limited new housing opportunities. The following programs will implement these goals. Program 1: Maintenance of City-Owned Residences The City owns 26 of the total 31 housing units in Vernon, all of which are rented. The City is responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of these units. As indicated in Section 2.0, Housing Needs Assessment, of this Housing Element, all of the City-owned units Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 53 were determined to be in good repair. In addition, in recent years the City initiated an extensive project on all City-owned units to ensure the continued longevity of existing units. In 2007, the City renovated 12 units, and an additional 14 units were renovated between 2008 and 2011. Since 2007, all 26 units have undergone renovations. The City will continue to provide maintenance to these units, thus ensuring upkeep for the majority of Vernon’s housing stock. Responsible Agency: Department of Community Services Project Funding: Departmental Budget Timeframe: Ongoing as needed. Program 2: Code Enforcement Of the five non-City owned units located in Vernon, none was determined by the City to be in need of substantial rehabilitation. Due to the limited number of privately owned units in the City, a code enforcement program would have limited application. However, it is nonetheless imperative that residential units be adequately maintained for health, safety, and aesthetic concerns. Community Services staff is active in the community and will enforce the City’s code to eliminate and prevent unsafe conditions in residential units. Community Services staff responds quickly to code enforcement complaints in Vernon. Community Services staff is active in the community and will actively monitor all residential units in the City to ensure the health and safety of City residents.Staff will respond to reports of code violations within the week that they are reported, and enforce applicable laws to ensure the safety and preservation of all housing units within the City. Responsible Agency: Department of Community Services Project Funding: Departmental Budget Timeframe: Ongoing Program 3: Preservation of Assisted Housing State law (Chapter 1451, Statutes of 1989) requires the City to identify, analyze and propose programs within the Housing Element to address the potential conversion of all federal, State and locally assisted housing developments eligible to change to non-low-income use during the next ten-year period (2008-2018). Government Code Section 65583(8) defines assisted housing developments as the following: “multi-family rental housing that Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 54 receives governmental assistance under federal programs listed in subdivision (a) of Section 65863.10, state and local multi-family revenue bond programs, local redevelopment programs, the federal Community Development Block Grant Program, or local in-lieu fees. Assisted housing developments shall also include multi-family rental units that were developed pursuant to a local inclusionary housing program or used to qualify for a density bonus pursuant to Section 65915-65917.” Vernon has no assisted housing in its jurisdiction, as confirmed by City and State HCD staff, and through review of “Inventory of Federally Subsidized Low-Income Rental Units at Risk of Conversion” (California Housing Partnership Corporation), and the “Use of Housing Revenue Bond Proceeds - 1994” (California Debt Advisory Commission). As a result, there is no housing at risk of losing its subsidized status that must be considered in the Housing Element. Responsible Agency: Department of Community Services Project Funding: Departmental Budget Timeframe: Ongoing Program 4: Housing Opportunities for Residents with Special Needs The Fair Housing Act, as amended in 1988, requires that cities and counties provide reasonable accommodation to rules, policies, practices, and procedures where such accommodation may be necessary to afford individuals with disabilities equal housing opportunities. The City has adopted procedures in their Zoning Ordinance for housing for persons with disabilities and will provide information to residents through the City’s website. Responsible Agency: Department of Community Services Project Funding: Departmental Budget Timeframe: Ongoing Program 5: Priority Water and Sewer Services In accordance with Government Code Section 65589.7, after the Vernon Housing Element is adopted by City Council, a copy will be immediately delivered to all public agencies or private entities that provide water or sewer services to properties within Vernon. Responsible Agency: Department of Community Services Project Funding: Departmental Budget Timeframe: 2013 Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 55 Program 6: Provision of Adequate Sites The Land Use Element Housing Overlay policy allows up to 60 residential dwelling units citywide, which is more than adequate to meet RHNA objectives for all income levels (two units). According to the sites inventory capacity analysis, the 2.1-acre housing site (Site A) located at 4675 52nd Drive is estimated to accommodate up to 49 units. The 0.5-acre housing site (Site B) located at 4675 52nd Drive can accommodate up to 12 units. Adequate zoning is in place for Site A, via the Housing Overlay. Site B may be considered as a potential housing site in the future. Together, these two sites can accommodate the total dwelling units identified under the Housing Overlay policy, not to exceed 60 units. As described on pages 37-38, the Housing Overlay allows residential uses with approval of a Development Agreement. This permitting process is applied to all residential applications and is considered necessary given Vernon’s unique industrial character. Through a Development Agreement that City can assure that measures will be in place to create the best possible housing solutions. The Development Agreement must at a minimum ensure that adequate emergency access is provided, that the development includes suitable open space amenities, and parking be provided to meet the anticipated needs of residents. On the two sites where the Housing Overlay applies, Zoning Ordinance regulations will allow for densities of up to 30 units per acre. The overlay exclusively allows for residential uses (no mixed use). Given the size of the largest site, at least 16 units can be constructed, per Section 65583.2(h) and (i) of the Government Code. The Housing Overlay is being adopted in conjunction with adoption of the Housing Element. The site on 52nd Street is to be developed with units all affordable to lower-income households, with the developer seeking Low Income Housing Tax Credit funding. In the event this development project does not move forward, the City will continue to seek a developer who can provide similar housing. While no density bonus has been deemed necessary to incentivize development of affordable housing, the City recognizes that developers can request a density bonus pursuant to State law. Because land use policy will not allow for additional housing development beyond the two sites identified in this element and given that densities are sufficient to encourage affordable housing Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 56 projects, the City does not see the need to adopt specific regulations for density bonuses. Thus, the City Zoning Ordinance will be amended simply to reference State law. With regard to housing persons in need of emergency shelter, in conjunction with adoption of the Housing Element the City has adopted Zoning Ordinance to establish an Emergency Housing overlay zone. This zone, applied to a large property in the northwest portion of Vernon, allows emergency shelters by right (see Figure H-5). The property is over five acres in size and can accommodate one or more shelters. Like all other properties in Vernon, the site is surrounded by industrial uses. However, this particular site is easily accessible from transit routes along Santa Fe Avenue and Alameda Street. The site is currently vacant and owned by the Alameda Corridor Transportation Agency. Responsible Agency: Department of Community Services Project Funding: Departmental Budget Timeframe: Development of housing to accommodate the RHNA by 2015; amend Zoning Ordinance by May 2013 to include reference to State law regarding density bonus provisions; immediate availability of Emergency Housing Overlay site for any application for such use. Program 7: Equal Housing Opportunity The Vernon City Clerk’s Department is responsible for referring equal housing opportunity questions. Any questions or concerns raised by residents will be accepted by the City Clerk and brought before City Council for resolution. In order to disseminate information on fair housing resources more broadly, the City will place a link on the City’s website that refers to the Housing Rights Center Frequently Asked Questions webpage on housing discrimination. Also, persons in need of transitional and supportive housing can readily be accommodated within any housing development proposed in the Housing Overlay zone. In conjunction with adoption of this Housing Element, the City has amended the Zoning Ordinance to define transitional and supportive housing as a standard residential uses of property permitted within the Housing Overlay zone. Any proposal for such housing is subject to the same permitting requirements (approval of a Development Agreement to define the site plan and development parameters) as any other type of housing. Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 57 Responsible Agency: Department of Community Services; City Clerk Project Funding: Departmental Budget Timeframe: June 2013 5.3 Redevelopment Agency Dissolution On December 29, 2011 the California Supreme Court issued a ruling upholding AB 1X 26, legislation that called for the elimination of hundreds of local redevelopment agencies in the state, including the Redevelopment Agency for the City of Vernon. The City of Vernon elected to become the Successor Agency of the former Vernon Redevelopment Agency and established an Oversight Board. As the Successor Agency, the Oversight Board oversees certain fiscal management of former Agency fund. This includes carrying out existing projects that are in various stages of development. The City was not required to set aside 20 percent of the tax increate collected in the Industrial Redevelopment Project Area to be used by the Agency to increase the City’s supply of affordable housing, because it determined that were was no housing need in the City. Therefore, there are no existing housing set-aside funds for the Industrial Redevelopment Project Area. Vernon General Plan Housing Element Housing Element - 58 This page intentionally left blank. VERNON GENERAL PLAN SAFETY ELEMENT Vernon General Plan Safety Element Safety Element - 1 SAFETY ELEMENT 1.0 PURPOSE AND FOCUS 1.1 Purpose The Safety Element identifies the natural and man-made hazards which affect public safety in the City, and establishes policies the City will pursue to minimize associated risks to life and property. Because these hazards can have significant economic consequences, identifying, understanding, and guarding against these hazards greatly benefits those who own property, work, and live in Vernon. 1.2 Focus Several different types of events could create critical situations affecting public safety in Vernon. Generally, public safety risks can be divided into two categories: environmental events and events arising from human actions. In Vernon, environmental events include earthquakes and flooding. Human-caused hazards such as chemical spills, hazardous materials release, and train, truck or plane accidents have greater potential to cause upset in Vernon given its industrial Vernon General Plan Safety Element Safety Element - 2 nature. Increasingly in all cities in the nation, the threat of terrorist activity represents a new public safety concern requiring special treatment. This Element addresses each of these potential safety risks and discusses how the City will respond to each. Also addressed are evacuation routes necessary to move people away from hazardous conditions. 2.0 IDENTIFYING AND GUARDING AGAINST HAZARDS Four natural hazards of particular importance that could affect Vernon are identified in the Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan. Earthquakes represent a significant threat, with the associated strong ground shaking and possibility of liquefaction in some areas. Flooding is a concern as well, with Los Angeles River as the major source. Unusual rainfall amounts may also cause flooding if storm drain facilities are inadequate to accommodate the resulting high volume of runoff. Inundation from dam failure is a remote possibility but must nevertheless be addressed. The fourth natural hazard is a significant windstorm event. Southern California is occasionally raked by moderate to severe wind events called “Santa Ana winds” that blow hot, dry air into the Los Angeles Basin from the desert. These winds tend to be most severe downwind of mountain passes, but can affect the urban flatlands as well. Wind speeds of up to 65 miles per hour are not uncommon, and local gusts may substantially exceed these speeds. Vernon Fire Station #3 Vernon General Plan Safety Element Safety Element - 3 Since Vernon and its surrounding areas are completely urbanized, with little natural vegetation, there is almost no risk of damage from wildfires. Urban fire protection is discussed in Section 2.2 of this Element. Human-caused hazards include the risk of explosion or leaks from stored chemical and petroleum products, or from derailment or collision of railcars or trucks carrying hazardous chemical or materials. Chemical spills are also a concern because of the industrial nature of the uses in Vernon. Fire hazards are prevalent due to the nature of the industrial uses and intensely developed character of properties. A fire during a windstorm, which combines both a natural and a human- caused hazard, can represent a serious threat to public safety. Some events are particularly difficult to anticipate and prepare a programmed response for. Since the 9/11 attack on New York’s World Trade Center, the threat of terrorist activity has been of major concern to the nation and the world. As with both natural and human-caused hazards, a terrorist event could occur outside Vernon yet directly impact the City. Programs to deal with such an event require a cooperative approach with regional agencies. Activities such as a labor strike or other demonstration usually present a low risk to public safety, but public safety personnel must plan for responses to these situations to maintain public order. Railcars carrying materials through Vernon Vernon General Plan Safety Element Safety Element - 4 The City’s Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) Multi-Hazard Functional Plan (MHFP) discusses and contains programs and plans for emergency responses to the safety concerns described above. This document includes pre- emergency preparedness plans and programs for mutual aid between organizations for virtually any emergency situation. 2.1 Natural Hazards Seismic Event Southern California is one of the most seismically active regions of the United States, given its location at the edge of the Pacific Plate. Although no major faults have been identified by Alquist-Priolo statewide mapping efforts as crossing through Vernon, the many fault systems that traverse Los Angeles County and the broader region, along with unmapped blind thrusts, have the potential to cause damage in the City in the event of an earthquake. Figure S-1 identifies regional fault systems, including major faults within 20 miles of the City. Severe ground shaking can cause damage to buildings with corresponding threats of injury or loss of life. Figure S-1: Regional Faults Vernon General Plan Safety Element Safety Element - 5 A secondary effect of ground shaking is soil liquefaction, which can result in building instability or failure. This is not considered a serious threat in Vernon, but some areas of the City could be affected (see Figure S-2). Liquefaction can occur when loose, unconsolidated, water-laden soils lose their structure during strong ground shaking. These hazards can be mitigated at the development stage through the removal and re-compaction of suspect soils. Vernon’s standard practice of requiring engineering studies for new development projects reduces the risk of liquefaction hazards in those susceptible areas identified on Figure S-2. Figure S-2: Liquefaction Zone In addition to damage to buildings, earthquakes often result in damage to public and private infrastructure. Ruptured gas or oil lines may result in explosions or leaks, and facilities storing chemicals or flammable materials may also be damaged causing leaks or explosion. Water lines, sewer lines, and reservoirs can also be damaged. Electrical facilities, particularly transformer and power lines, are susceptible to damage resulting in a possible injury or loss of life as well as a power loss. To reduce the scope of damage in the event of an earthquake, Vernon will continue to require new construction to meet mandated seismic safety codes. Retrofit of older structures will continue pursuant to Municipal Code requirements, and Vernon General Plan Safety Element Safety Element - 6 Los Angeles River the City will continue ongoing efforts to upgrade infrastructure pursuant to the Capital Improvement Plan. In addition, the programs the City has in place to guard against hazardous materials spills and releases also help to protect these materials from being released during ground-shaking hazards. Through both preventative measures and strong, organized emergency response, Vernon will continue to take steps to minimize risks associated with earthquakes. Flooding Although the Los Angeles River flows through Vernon for a distance longer than three miles and would frequently overflow its banks under historic natural conditions, the river was contained within a concrete-lined flood control channel early in the twentieth century, substantially reducing the potential for overflowing of the river banks or overtopping of the dams that could cause flooding of adjacent areas. In the rainy season of 2004-2005, the Los Angeles area received the second highest rainfall ever recorded, approximately three times the normal amount, yet the river channel proved adequate to accommodate this flow. In the past, localized flooding has occurred during heavy rainstorms. However, storm drain improvements have substantially reduced this problem. Flood hazards related to storm events generally are described in terms of a 100-year or 500-year flood. A 100-year flood is defined as a major flood event that has a one percent or greater chance of occurring during any one year. Flood hazard planning practices address such storms, as well as 500-year events. These floods are considered severe; however, these floods can be reasonably predicted and therefore reasonably mitigated. With the flood control system of the Los Angeles River in place, the Federal Emergency Management Agency does not identify any 100-year floodplain areas in the City of Vernon. FEMA maps identify a small portion of southeast Vernon within the 500-year flood zone (Figure S-3). The existing flood control system appears to be adequate to serve the City’s needs. Vernon General Plan Safety Element Safety Element - 7 Figure S-3: FEMA Flood Hazard Zones Dam Inundation Dam inundation occurs when structural damage to a dam results in a flood. Dam failure can occur due to an earthquake, erosion, design flaw, or water overflow during storms. Dam inundation maps represent the best estimate of where water would flow in if a dam with a full reservoir suddenly failed completely. Figure S-4 shows areas that would be affected in the event of dam failure. Nearly all of the land in Vernon lies within the potential inundation areas for both Hansen Dam and Sepulveda Dam, which are located in separate areas of the San Fernando Valley, more than 20 miles northwest of the City. In the unlikely event that a catastrophic earthquake causes the collapse of either of these dams, water and debris would flow to and then generally along the Los Angeles River in a fairly narrow stream before spreading out over a swath of the coastal plain several miles wide, including Vernon. The official map from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers predicts that the flow from Sepulveda Dam, 24 miles away from Vernon, would take more than eight hours to reach the City. Flow from Hansen Dam, also 24 miles away, is predicted to take more than 19 hours to reach Vernon. The flow from either dam would probably peak at a depth of 2 feet in the Vernon General Plan Safety Element Safety Element - 8 Figure S-4: Dam Inundation Areas vicinity of Vernon. The expected long delay between dam breach and the arrival of the flow should give ample time for emergency services to respond, as outlined in the City’s SEMS Multi-Hazard Functional Plan (MHFP). Windstorms Windstorms present a potential hazard through their ability to damage buildings and public facilities such as street traffic control lights and public signs. In addition to the damage to buildings, the most significant threat to public safety is from flying debris. While this problem is not usually as severe as that experienced in hurricanes or tornados, maintaining public awareness of the hazard is important. Regionally, the hot, dry Santa Ana winds can create severe brushfire dangers, but this is not a particularly severe problem in Vernon, as there is little vegetation. Vernon General Plan Safety Element Safety Element - 9 2.2 Human-caused Hazards Risk of Explosion and Hazardous Materials Spills Many varied materials of an explosive or hazardous nature are stored and used by many businesses in Vernon. Because of the industrial nature of the City, the geographic scope is citywide. In addition, the presence of major rail lines and transfer yards, together with the Long Beach Freeway (I-710) and Alameda Corridor, which carry high volumes of truck and train traffic to and from the ports, pose real threats in the event of a spill. To address local storage issues, the City Environmental Health Department maintains a complete inventory of the locations where hazardous materials are stored and used. A detailed response program defines the actions to be taken by the Fire Department and Environmental Health Department in the event of a problem involving a spill or explosion. This program focuses on the evacuation of persons, as well as containment and cleanup. With regard to terrorism concerns, possible targets in Vernon include the major rail yards, power generation facilities, and any business with significant volumes of hazardous materials. Federal agencies are responsible for safe-guarding transportation facilities, and Vernon will cooperate with these agencies in these efforts. With regard to protection of local businesses, routine patrol activities of the Police Department and heightened training and vigilance are undertaken in order to address these concerns. The City will provide Police personnel with appropriate training to minimize such threats. Hazardous Materials Emergency Response operate the Spartan Super Vac Hazardous Materials Unit Vernon General Plan Safety Element Safety Element - 10 Fire Department The Vernon Fire Department is rated as Class I by Insurance Services Office, Inc., one of only ten cities in California and 35 nationwide to earn this distinction. The Department provides a variety of emergency services, including fire protection, emergency medical services, urban search and rescue, and hazardous materials control. Staff at each of Vernon’s four fire stations is fully trained for fighting fires. Each station is equipped with three to six response vehicles, but also has its own specialization. Fire Station 1 at 3375 Fruitland Avenue serves both as Fire Department headquarters and training center. The personnel at Fire Station 2, rebuilt in 2007 at 4301 Santa Fe Avenue, adjacent to City Hall, are all trained as hazardous materials specialists. Paramedics trained in advanced life support at Fire Station 3, at 2800 Soto Street, respond to all emergency situations, and this station is also home to a squad trained in all manners of urban search and rescue techniques. Despite being in a completely urbanized area, Fire Station 4 sends specialized personnel to respond to wildfires through the statewide mutual aid system. 3.0 GOALS AND POLICIES Vernon has fewer than 200 permanent residents, but the employment population approaches 45,000 during a typical 24-hour period. Police, fire, and paramedic facilities and personnel must be adequate to provide services to this larger community of workers. Public safety personnel must be prepared to handle potential emergency situations of all kinds: hazardous materials spills, explosions, earthquakes, and train accidents. Additionally, as an industrial city, Vernon must be prepared for the possibility of labor issues such as strikes disrupting the City and requiring responses from public safety personnel. GOAL S-1 Minimize the risk to public health, safety, and welfare associated with the presence of natural and human-caused hazards.

VERNON GENERAL PLAN RESOURCES ELEMENT Vernon General Plan Resources Element Resources Element - 1 RESOURCES ELEMENT 1.0 PURPOSE AND FOCUS 1.1 Purpose As a fully developed city, Vernon has few remaining natural resources in the conventional sense of undeveloped land, native vegetation, and wildlife habitat. The two natural resources that are present and important are groundwater and the air. Both have been affected by urban development, but both sustain development in the City and respresent critical regional resources. Vernon’s groundwater serves as a portion of the City’s water supply. Clean air, of course, provides a healthier environment and may help minimize some aspects of global warming. The open spaces that exist in Vernon are limited to privately owned landscaping around buildings, utility easements, rail yards, and the Los Angeles River. Given the industrial nature of Vernon, expanses of open space are not needed for recreational purposes. However, open space does provide visual relief from hard urban surfaces. Vernon General Plan Resources Element Resources Element - 2 This Element establishes City policies intended to best manage the limited available natural resources in Vernon and to encourage continued participation in broader efforts to protect the environment from harmful human activities. 1.2 Focus This Resources Element combines two elements required by the California Government Code–the Conservation Element and the Open Space Element–and focuses on the protection and preservation of resources within the City. In addition to groundwater and air resources, additional resource issues addressed are local open space, historic/cultural resources, and the national issue of energy use. 2.0 IDENTIFYING AND PROTECTING LOCAL RESOURCES 2.1 Water Quality and Supply Potable water resources in Vernon are limited to the groundwater basins that underlie the City (and surrounding lands) and recycled water. Local groundwater is contained within the Los Angeles River and Gaspar aquifers, which supply a significant portion of the water used by businesses in Vernon. Because these basins extend beneath surrounding jurisdictions, activities both in Vernon and other cities affect the quantity and quality of groundwater. Potential contamination and depletion of the underground basins have been historic concerns, and conditions are continuously monitored to guard against possible interruption of supply. Water quality standards established by federal and State agencies and requirements for water quality monitoring protect industrial users from contamination and ensure sage drinking water supplies. In particular, National Pollution Discharge Elimination Systems (NPDES) requirements enforced by the State Regional Water Quality Control Board require the control and clean up of surface runoff prior to its discharge into storm drain systems and ultimately, into groundwater basins or surface waters. State agencies continue to press for percolation as a means of reclaiming stormwater runoff, both as a mechanism to replenish aquifers and to allow for continued natural cleaning processes. Given Vernon’s built-out condition and the severe lack of open space, clean-up and recharge via percolation proves difficult. Vernon General Plan Resources Element Resources Element - 3 As described in the Circulation and Infrastructure Element, three water agencies supply water within Vernon (see Figure CI-3). Most of the geographical are of Vernon is supplied by the City’s Water Department. The California Water Service Company (Cal Water), East Los Angeles District, Commerce System serves some of the northeast portion of Vernon, and a small portion of southeast Vernon is serviced by Maywood Mutual Water Company Number 3. Many of the food processing and other industries common in Vernon are water-intensive uses. Analysis of water resources for the City of Vernon Water Department, including supply sources, is contained in the 2010 Urban Water Management Plan (which is periodically updated). In 2005, water use in Vernon’s service area was approximately 12,000 acre-feet per year (AFY).1 By 2010, water use had decreased to approximately 9,000 AFY. Of that, approximately 84 percent of the water supply was obtained from groundwater sources. Less than eight percent was purchased from the Central Basin Municipal Water District (CBMWD), and slightly more than eight percent came from recycled water supplies. As reported in the City’s 2010 Urban Water Management Plan, water demand in 2025 is projected to increase to approximately 13,800 AFY (which assumed construction of a new power plant). As stated in the plan, Vernon’s infrastructure is designed to meet a high level of demand from the commercial and industrial sectors; associated water demand may shift over time depending on current businesses and industrial practices. By planning for this high level of demand, sufficient flexibility is provided over the long term to maintain the City’s business plan. Water conservation programs are in place, and internal water recycling by specific businesses helps reduce overall demand. Because Vernon is built out, new businesses will simply replace those that exist today, and water consumption over time normally would not be expected to increase significantly. By 2035, water supply is anticipated to increase substantially (by approximately 145 percent) due largely to the increase in supply from recycled water sources. The number of acre-feet produced from the City Water Department’s wells is not 1 An acre-foot of water equals 325,851 gallons, or about the amount of water a family of four consumes in a year. Vernon General Plan Resources Element Resources Element - 4 expected to substantially increase, and the amount purchased from CBMWD is expected to approximately double. By 2035, Vernon’s water supply profile is projected to be 37 percent from groundwater, 10 percent from CBMWD, and 53 percent from recycled sources. The majority of any new demand will be served throught the use of recycled water, indicating the City’s commitment to conservation of its water resources, good water management practices, and sustainability of resources. Parts of northeastern Vernon are within California Water Service Company’s (Cal Water’s) District. Since the area is completely urbanized, annual growth is very slow; since 1980 the amount of water used in the service area has never increased by more than 0.5 percent from year to year. Only 30 of Maywood Mutual Water Company #3’s 2,000 service connections are in the City of Vernon; the rest are in the Cities of Maywood and Bell. In 2006, Vernon’s connections totaled 34.5 acre-feet of water usage. Early in 2007 a new Matheson Tri-Gas plant opened in this area, which had been projected to add 150 annual acre-feet of usage, but has instead shown to only use water commensurate with a 30 acre- feet per year increase in water usage. Maywood Mutual #3 currently derives all of its water supplies from its own groundwater wells. Its three wells are capable of producing approximately 4,500 acre-feet per year, and have historically produced between 1,400 and 1,750 acre-feet per year. Agreements are in place with the Metropolitan Water District that would allow Maywood Mutual #3 to purchase 2,500 acre-feet of water per year if necessary, for a total possible supply of 7,000 acre-feet per year. This would be more than four times the current usage within Maywood Mutual #3’s service area. Maywood Mutual #3 reports that groundwater production is adequate for current and any foreseen future demand. 2.2 Air Quality The quality of the air in Southern California is determined by many regional factors: prevailing winds, persistent inversion conditions, the commute habits of 10 million-plus people within the air basin, and the presence of major ports and industry. Vernon lies within the South Coast Air Basin, a geographic area that extends from the Pacific Ocean to the San Gabriel Mountains, and from the Ventura County boundary Vernon General Plan Resources Element Resources Element - 5 east to the San Bernardino and San Jacinto Mountains. The air basin is a non-attainment area for federal and State air quality standards for ozone, particulate matter less than 10 microns in diameter (PM10), particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter (PM2.5), and lead. The basin is a non-attainment area for State standards with regard to nitrogen dioxide (NO2). The South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) regulates air quality improvement programs within the basin and works to improve regional air quality to achieve federal and State standards. At the local level, emissions from stationary sources (industry, power plants, etc.) and from vehicles discharge chemicals and particulate matter into the air, and these emissions are further transformed in the atmosphere by photochemical action into ozone and other health-threatening pollutants. As heavy industry is prevalent in Vernon, most local businesses are heavily regulated by SCAQMD. Emissions from trucks, cars, and trains are regulated by State and federal agencies, meaning the Vernon City Council and City staff have little ability to affect those factors that most significantly contribute to regional air quality conditions. However, the City recognizes its responsibility to participate in regional efforts to continue to improve air quality. City programs in this regard include City purchase and use of alternative fuel vehicles and fuel-efficient vehicles. In 2006, about 3.5 percent of the vehicles owned by the City used alternative fuels. As the City replaces its fleet of vehicles, consideration and priority will be given to the purchase of more vehicles using hybrid or electric engines or other emerging technologies that replace fossil fuels. Because motor vehicles represent a significant source of pollutant emissions, one key approach to reducing emissions is to reduce vehicle miles traveled. In 2006, businesses in Vernon employed 44,225 workers locally. Many employers have large workforces, offering opportunities for carpooling and other ride-sharing arrangements. Also, many Metro bus lines serve the City, and Blue Line light rail has stops that readily serve Vernon businesses (provided one is willing to walk or take bus connections from the train stations). The City is in a position to encourage transit use and ride sharing by serving as an information hub and clearinghouse for local businesses. Reducing the volume of cars on local streets can help reduce regional emissions and allow Vernon to contribute to regional air quality improvements. Vernon General Plan Resources Element Resources Element - 6 2.3 Global Warming In 2006, the California Legislature adopted AB 32, the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006, to address concerns regarding the potential impact of climate change on the State’s economy and the environment. The legislation requires the California Air Resources Board to determine the level of greenhouse gases produced in 1990 and outline strategies to ensure that the level of emissions in 2020 do not exceed the 1990 level. The overall goal is to establish a comprehensive program of regulatory and market mechanisms to achieve real, quantifiable, cost-effective reductions of greenhouse gas emissions. Specifically, AB 32 (as codified in the California Health and Safety Code) requires the California Air Resources Board to: Establish a statewide greenhouse gas emissions cap for 2020, based on 1990 emissions Adopt mandatory reporting rules for significant sources of greenhouse gases Adopt a plan indicating how emission reductions will be achieved from significant greenhouse gas sources via regulations, market mechanisms, and other actions Adopt regulations to achieve the maximum technologically feasible and cost-effective reductions in greenhouse gas, including provisions for using both market mechanisms and alternative compliance mechanisms SB 375, passed into law in 2008, has the goal of fostering development patterns—and more compact patterns in particular—that reduce the need to drive, thereby reducing air pollution from car exhaust, conserving water, and protecting habitat, among other benefits. This law is designed to align regional land use, housing, and transportation plans with greenhouse gas reduction targets. In Vernon, emissions are regulated by the Southern California Air Quality District, as well as State and federal agencies. The agencies have imposed regulations to reduce emissions from both stationary and vehicular sources. These actions have led to a substantial improvement in air quality in the Southern California air basin and presumably have had a concurrent effect on greenhouse gas emissions. Further reductions are Vernon General Plan Resources Element Resources Element - 7 anticipated as new requirements are imposed by current legislation and regulations. The City of Vernon is a built out city, and the General Plan does not provide for any substantive increase in either square footage in industrial development or substantive increases in employment (see Table LU-1 in the Land Use Element). Future residential development is limited pursuant to the Land Use Element. This limited residential development will provide a new housing opportunity for local workers to live near places of employment in Vernon, furthering SB 375 goals. Given the limited changes anticipated as part of this General Plan, the issue of increased emissions resulting from growth is not a significant concern. 2.4 Energy Supplies Industrial businesses in Vernon require reliable energy supplies for industrial processes and refrigeration. In 1932, the citizens of Vernon supported a bond measure that authorized the City to construct a power plant. This enabled the City to build its own electric power generating plant—to meet the needs of this “exclusively industrial city”. Since then, the City has been able to provide reliable and comparatively low-cost electric power to its customers. In 2005, the City completed construction of the Malburg Generating Station, a new natural-gas-powered power plant that provides electricity to many businesses in Vernon. The City recognizes that energy conservation benefits consumers in the form of lower energy costs. Conservation also reduces the need for construction of costly new energy production facilities. Finally, conservation helps efforts to improve regional air quality by reducing pollutant emissions from older power generation plants in Southern California. Vernon. The City is committed to working with local businesses to help them be energy efficient and help keep rates low. 2.5 Open Space The major open space resources in Vernon consist of the Los Angeles River Channel and utility easements. No riparian habitat exists, as the Los Angeles River channel is concrete lined along this portion of the river. Given the City’s industrial character, Vernon does not contain and does not have a need for public parks. Private open spaces on industrial properties Vernon General Plan Resources Element Resources Element - 8 are limited as well, as most buildings are built to the sidewalk line, leaving limited area for on-site landscaping. Over time, requirements for site-specific runoff control may result in property owners devoting portions of setback or parking areas to green space. Additional green space may also be added through the middle of Vernon if plans progress for the “re-greening” of the Los Angeles River. The Los Angeles River Master Plan, adopted by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors in 1996, calls for a greenway along the bank, a trail and murals along the west levee, an interpretive exhibit near the Bandini Avenue crossing, and a passive park area near Atlantic Avenue. As of 2007, no funding source or preliminary plan for creation of additional open space within the City of Vernon currently exists. 2.6 Cultural Resources In 1847, the Mexican militia fought U.S. troops under the command of U.S. Army General Stephen Watts Kearny and U.S. Navy Captain Robert F. Stockton along the San Gabriel River. The battle of La Mesa, in present-day Vernon, occurred on January 9, 1847 and ended with the Mexicans overwhelmed by a strong American advance. On January 10, Mexican leaders surrendered peacefully to the Americans, who promptly occupied the city of Los Angeles. Between 1847 and the early years of the twentieth century, the lands that now comprise Vernon were dedicated largely to agriculture, with John B. Leonis representing one of the key ranchers/landholders in the area. Vernon incorporated in 1905 as an “exclusively industrial” city and was named after a dirt road, Vernon Avenue, crossing its center. In the following years, many diverse industries established major facilities in the City, taking advantage of the rail access and, with the construction in 1932 of a City-owned power plant, low-cost electricity. The industrial buildings that house these diverse industries well serve their industrial functions, but also display architecture representative of distinct periods and styles. The busy building period of the 1920s and ‘30s produced several Streamline Moderne structures, and wonderful brick buildings can be found throughout the City. A notable landmark is the Farmer John mural surrounding the company’s meat processing facility on Vernon Avenue. Vernon General Plan Resources Element Resources Element - 9 Vernon will assist in the effort to preserve the memory of early Los Angeles, and tell the story of its growth and development, through taking and retaining photographs of buildings and structures that may have architectural or historic interest. 3.0 GOALS AND POLICIES GOAL R-1 Conserve and protect the region's water and energy resources.

VERNON GENERAL PLAN NOISE ELEMENT Vernon General Plan Noise Element Noise Element - 1 NOISE ELEMENT 1.0 PURPOSE AND FOCUS 1.1 Purpose The purpose of the Noise Element is to identify significant sources of noise in Vernon and to identify ways to protect people living and working in Vernon from extensive exposure to excessive or unhealthy noise levels. Per the California Administrative Code, all general plans must include a Noise Element. The Noise Element sets the framework for working toward and maintaining environmental noise control appropriate to individual communities. The Element establishes goals, policies, and programs that identify possible approaches to protecting the business community and the few people living in Vernon from excessive noise. 1.2 Focus In recognition of the adverse health effects associated with excessive noise, the California Government Code, Section 65302(f), identifies the types of community noise to be addressed in the General Plan. The Noise Element is to identify noise sources from: Freeways and street systems; Freight on-line railroad operations; Vernon General Plan Noise Element Noise Element - 2 Local industrial plants, including, but not limited to, railroad classification yards; and Other stationary ground noise sources identified by local agencies as contributing to the community noise environment. Vernon is unique in that its status as an all-industrial community establishes different sensitivities regarding noise than those present in typical suburban or even mixed-use urban areas. Local businesses are not significantly impacted by higher noise levels that would not be appropriate in a residential neighborhood or near schools, parks, or hospitals. 2.0 ABOUT NOISE Noise is often defined as unwanted, excessive, or irksome sound. Sound – and noise – consists of waves of energy that we receive and interpret. To describe the character of a particular noise, acousticians must have information about: The amplitude and amplitude variation of the acoustical wave, The frequency (pitch) content of the noise, and The duration of the noise. 2.1 Noise Metrics Definitions of the most commonly used terms encountered in community noise assessments and noise control are provided in the General Plan Glossary. Of these terms, the A-weighted sound pressure level, or dB(A), is the scale of measurement that is most useful in community noise measurement. This sound level is measured in decibels to provide a scale with the range and characteristics most consistent with that of peoples' sensitivity to sounds, as described below. Since decibels are logarithmic units, sound pressure levels cannot be added or subtracted by ordinary arithmetic means. For example, if one automobile produces a sound pressure level of 70 dB when it passes an observer, two cars passing simultaneously would not produce 140 dB. In fact, they would combine to produce 73 dB. This same principle can be applied to other traffic quantities as well. In other words, doubling the traffic volume on a street or the speed of the traffic will increase the traffic noise level by 3 dB. Conversely, halving the Vernon General Plan Noise Element Noise Element - 3 traffic volume or speed will reduce the traffic noise level by 3 dB. Sound pressure level alone is not a reliable indicator of loudness. The frequency or pitch of a sound also has a substantial effect on how humans will respond. While the intensity of the sound is a purely physical quantity, the loudness or human response depends on the characteristics of the human ear. Human hearing is limited not only to the range of audible frequencies, but also in the way it perceives the sound pressure level in that range. In general, the healthy human ear is most sensitive to sounds between 1,000 hertz (Hz) and 5,000 Hz, and perceives both higher and lower frequency sounds of the same magnitude with less intensity. To approximate the frequency response of the human ear, a series of sound pressure level adjustments is usually applied to the sound measured by a sound level meter. The adjustments, or weighting network, are frequency dependent. The A-scale approximates the frequency response of the average young ear when listening to most ordinary everyday sounds. When people make relative judgments of the loudness or annoyance of a sound, their judgments correlate well with the A-scale sound levels of those sounds. A range of noise levels associated with common indoor and outdoor activities is shown in Figure N-1. Vernon General Plan Noise Element Noise Element - 4 Figure N-1: Examples of Noise Levels The A-weighted sound level of traffic and other long-term noise-producing activities within and around a community varies considerably with time. Measurements of this varying noise level are accomplished by recording values of the A- weighted level during representative periods within a specified portion of the day. It is recognized that a given level of noise may be more or less tolerable depending on the duration of exposure experienced by an individual. There are numerous measures of noise Vernon General Plan Noise Element Noise Element - 5 Figure N-2: Examples of Noise at Southern California Locations exposure that consider not only the A- level variation of noise but also the duration of the disturbance. The State Department of Aeronautics and the California Commission on Housing and Community Development have adopted the community noise equivalent level (CNEL). This measure weights the average noise levels for the evening hours (7:00 P.M. to 10:00 P.M.), increasing them by 5 dB, and weights the late evening and morning hour noise levels (10:00 P.M. to 7:00 A.M.) by 10 dB. The daytime noise levels are combined with these weighted levels and are averaged to obtain a CNEL value. Figure N-2 indicates the outdoor CNEL at typical locations throughout the Southern California area. 2.2 Noise and Health Effects Sound levels which exceed 85 dB(A), when experienced for long durations during each working day, may result in severe temporary or even permanent hearing loss. State and federal safety and health regulations currently protect workers at levels of exposure that exceed 90 dB(A) for each eight-hour workday. Speech intelligibility is impaired when sound levels exceed 60 dB(A). The level of interference increases with sound level and the distance between speaker and listener. Sound levels that exceed 40 to 45 dB(A) are generally considered to be excessive for sleeping areas within a residence. 2.3 Community Noise Standards Vernon has established community noise standards to help guide land use decisions and protect sensitive uses from excessive noise levels, as shown in Figure N-3. Because the City consists almost exclusively of industrial uses and policy set forth in the Housing Element limits the construction of any new housing to only a few specifically identified sites in recognition of the hazards – including high noise levels – associated with widespread industrial activity, these Vernon General Plan Noise Element Noise Element - 6 standards discourage any new noise-sensitive use that would be incompatible with the City’s industrial focus. Similarly, zoning regulations prohibit community facilities such as schools, day care centers, and hospitals. Figure N-3: Community Noise Standards Vernon General Plan Noise Element Noise Element - 7 3.0 NOISE ENVIRONMENT IN 2007 In 2007, the City conducted a comprehensive noise survey of the community to document the noise environment. Measurements were taken at eleven locations, including two border locations in adjacent communities. Three measurements consisted of 24-hour recordings of the sound environment, and the balance were limited duration measurements at representative locations throughout Vernon and, as noted above, on the border of neighboring communities. In conjunction with an update to the Land Use and Housing Elements in 2013, focused noise measurements were taken near locations considered for permanent and emergency housing. The most significant noise-producing activity within Vernon involves the transportation systems: the arterial roadways and train movements along regional rail lines. In addition, many major manufacturing businesses create high noise levels. The only noise-sensitive land uses within the City are scattered residential units and the Vernon City Elementary School. Residences largely are clustered in four areas: on Vernon Avenue at Furlong Place, on Vernon Avenue between Downey Road and Alcoa Avenue, on Fruitland Avenue west of Downey Road, and on 52nd Place east of Atlantic Boulevard. The Emergency Shelter Overlay, which applies to a parcel in the northwest corner of the City, could accommodate emergency housing. Vernon City Elementary School is located at the southwest corner of Vernon Avenue and Santa Fe Avenue. The adjacent communities of Huntington Park and Maywood have residential neighborhoods and schools along and near their boundaries with Vernon. Vernon has long practiced good neighbor policies with respect to these uses, cooperating with adjacent cities to minimize noise impacts on sensitive uses. Vernon General Plan Noise Element Noise Element - 8 3.1 2007 CNEL Contours The noise measurements were modeled to create a community-wide “picture” of noise conditions. The CNEL contours for major arterial roadways and the I-710 freeway within the City were developed utilizing the Federal Highway Administration’s Traffic Noise Model and traffic data obtained from Caltrans and citywide traffic count data (2004-2007). The railroad contours were developed based on Wyle Laboratories’ computational procedures and on a computer model developed by the Federal Transit Administration. Operational data for the railroads was obtained from Amtrak and Metrolink schedules, the Southern California Regional Rail Authority, the Alameda Corridor Transit Authority, the Union Pacific Company, and the Federal Railroad Administration Office of Safety Analysis. These noise measurements and modeling results collectively can be represented by noise contour lines. Similar to the way topographic maps show contours indicated elevation change, the noise contour maps indicate decreasing noise levels as you move away from the noise source. Figure N-4 illustrates the noise contours for year 2007. 3.2 Transportation Noise Sources Noise along Arterial Roadways Figure N-4 shows that noise levels associated with truck and automobile traffic along Vernon’s arterial roadways are 70 CNEL along the roadway frontages. With regard to the gradual diminishment of noise as the receiver moves away from the street, the modeling does not take into account the mitigating effect of buildings that front the street. 7570606580656580606565707070756065757070658070706565656560707070 6065 7060707060756070707560606070706070608065657060706065706065657065606570706065606070606565656570706570657 0 756565656065656570656 0 658070606060656560657060656565756065707060607080 CNEL65 CNELNG (2007) NOISE CONTOURS This page intentionally left blank. Vernon General Plan Noise Element Noise Element - 11 Freeway Noise The CNEL generated in Vernon by traffic on the I-710 freeway is as high as 80 dB. However, the land uses affected by the traffic noise are largely industrial in nature and are not noise sensitive. Train Noise The City is impacted by noise from train movements on six primary rail lines, numerous spur lines, and activities at the Burlington, Northern & Santa Fe (BNSF) rail yard, as well as at the Union Pacific (UPRR) rail yard in the City of Commerce. The CNEL associated with train movements in and through Vernon is as high as 80 dB. However, the land uses affected by the traffic noise are largely industrial in nature and are not noise sensitive. The primary source of annoyance to residents in the vicinity of the UPRR line adjacent to Downey Road is train horn soundings at crossings. 3.3 Industrial Noise Sources In general, industrial noise within the City is not considered excessive because Vernon is a predominantly industrial city with few noise-sensitive properties. However, at the few scattered residences within the City, as well as at the Vernon City Elementary School, noise levels can exceed generally acceptable standards for these noise-sensitive uses. The impact is primarily related to noise generated by loading dock operations, trucks entering and leaving the area, and mechanical equipment located both inside and outside building. Adjacent to the City of Vernon are residential neighborhoods in the cities of Huntington Park and Maywood. Noise measurements taken in 2006 indicated that while average noise levels ranged up to 66.7 dB(A) and noise spikes registered 87.6 dB(A) during daytime hours, the measured CNELs of 61.5 dB in Huntington Park and 64 dB in Maywood were less than the exterior CNEL standard of 70 dB for residential properties in Vernon. Vernon General Plan Noise Element Noise Element - 12 4.0 FUTURE NOISE ENVIRONMENT Figure N-5 indicates projected noise contours for year 2030, assuming growth in regional traffic volumes through Vernon and anticipated activity along rail lines, the Alameda Corridor, and the regional rail lines. Land use policy provides for continued industrial use throughout the community, with provision for commercial uses within the Commercial Overlay to meet the needs of the daytime employee population and allow for a broader mix of uses on aging industrial sites. As indicated above, land use policy limits the introduction of any new noise-sensitive uses to specifically identified sites along the edges of the City. Thus, the City does not anticipate any new noise conflicts will arise in Vernon over the life of this General Plan. With regard to existing conditions where established residences and Vernon City Elementary School sometimes experience high noise levels, the City works with surrounding businesses to achieve noise standards established in the Zoning Ordinance. 5.0 GOALS AND POLICIES As an industrial city, the aim of the Noise Element is to address compatibility among neighboring businesses and industries, and to work with adjacent communities to resolve any conflicts that may be associated with individual businesses along Vernon’s municipal boundary. GOAL N-1 Reduce impacts from transportation noise sources to the extent they may affect industrial businesses. POLICY N-1.1: Encourage the effective enforcement of local, state, and federal noise levels by all appropriate City divisions. POLICY N-1.2: Review noise impacts when rail corridors are consolidated, and review ways to reduce impacts on adjacent businesses. POLICY N-1.3: Minimize adverse noise effects on new residential developments through carefully planned site design and construction approaches that limit noise intrusion, wherever practical. et006.80 CNEL75 CNEL70 CNEL65 CNEL60 CNELUTURE (2030) NOISE CONTOURS This page intentionally left blank.

VERNON GENERAL PLAN APPENDIX A: IMPLEMENTATION PLAN Vernon General Plan Implementation Plan Implementation Plan A- 1 Appendix A: Implementation Plan This Implementation Plan guides City elected officials and staff in the overall effort to carry out adopted General Plan goals and policies. The purpose of the implementation programs is to enable the overall direction set forth in the General Plan to be translated from general terms to specific actions. Each implementation program is a procedure, program, or technique that requires City action, either alone or in collaboration with non-governmental or quasi-governmental organizations or state and federal agencies. Some of the implementation programs are processes or procedures the City currently administers on a day-to-day basis (such as development project review), while others identify new programs or projects. Completion of the identified programs will be subject to funding constraints. The implementation programs are organized into the following six subsections corresponding to the General Plan elements: Land Use Element Circulation and Infrastructure Element Housing Element Safety Element Natural Resources Element Noise Element Each implementation program relates directly to one or more General Plan policies, drawn from the various General Plan elements. For each program, the related General Plan policies are listed, along with the responsible City departments or other governmental agencies, the recommended time frame, and likely funding source or sources. The implementation programs are intended for use as the basis for preparing the Annual Report to the City Council on the status of the City’s progress in implementing the General Plan, as described in Section 65400 of the Government Code. Because many of the individual actions and programs act as mitigation for environmental impacts resulting from planned Vernon General Plan Implementation Plan Implementation Plan A- 2 development pursuant to the General Plan, the annual report can also provide a means of monitoring application of the mitigation measures as required by Public Resources Code Section 21081.6. The programs should be updated annually concurrent with the budget process and whenever the City’s General Plan is amended or updated to ensure continued consistency and usefulness.

Noise Contours: Continuous lines of equal noise level usually drawn around a noise source, such as an airport or highway. The lines are generally drawn in five-decibel increments so that they resemble elevation contours in topographic maps. Nonconforming Use: An established use of a building or land which was legally initiated but which does not conform to the present code because of subsequent changes in land use regulations. Open Space (general descriptive term): Land without buildings. This is a general, descriptive term which places no restrictions on the use of the land.

Recycled water: See “reclaimed water.” Redevelopment: Redevelopment, under the California Community Redevelopment Law, is a process with the authority, scope, and financing mechanisms necessary to provide stimulus to reverse current negative business trends, remedy blight, provide job development incentives, and create a new image for a community. It provides for the planning, development, redesign, clearance, reconstruction, or rehabilitation, or any combination of these, and the provision of public and private improvements as may be appropriate or necessary in the interest of the general welfare. In a more general sense, redevelopment is a process in which existing development and use of land is replaced with newer development and/or use. Regional: Pertaining to activities or economies at a scale greater than that of a single jurisdiction and affecting a broad homogeneous area. Vernon General Plan Glossary Glossary - 7 Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA): The Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) is based on State of California projections of population growth and housing unit demand and assigns a share of the region's future housing need to each jurisdiction within the SCAG (Southern California Association of Governments) region.

(2) Requirements in a zoning ordinance that govern building and development as distinguished from use restrictions; for example, site design regulations such as lot area, height limit, frontage, landscaping, and floor area ratio. Stormwater runoff: Stormwater is a term used to describe water that originates during precipitation events or runoff water from overwatering that enters the stormwater system. Stormwater that does not soak into the ground becomes surface runoff, which either flows into surface waterways or is channeled into storm sewers. Subdivision: The division of a tract of land into defined lots, either improved or unimproved, which can be separately conveyed by sale or lease, and which can be altered or developed. "Subdivision" includes a condominium project as defined in Section 1350 of the California Civil Code and a community apartment project as defined in Section 11004 of the Business and Professions Code.

Traffic Model: A mathematical representation of traffic movement within an area or region based on observed relationships between the kind and intensity of development in specific areas. Units At-Risk of Conversion: Housing units that are currently restricted to low-income housing use and will become unrestricted and possibly be lost as low-income housing. Vernon General Plan Glossary Glossary - 9 Use: The purpose for which land or a building is designed, arranged, or intended, or for which the land or building may be occupied or maintained. Vacant: Lands or buildings that are not actively used for any purpose. Volume-to-Capacity Ratio (V/C): A ratio between volume and theoretical roadway capacity, V/C is used to measure the performance of roadway facilities.

Capacity refers to the vehicle carrying ability of a roadway at free flow speed. Zoning: The division of a city or county by legislative regulations into areas, or zones, which specify allowable uses for real property and size restrictions for buildings within these areas; a program that implements policies of the General Plan. Requirements vary between zones, but they must be uniform within the same zone. The Zoning Code consists of a map and text. Vernon refers to its zoning code as the Zoning Ordinance. Zoning Map: The officially adopted zoning map of the city specifying the location of zoning districts within all geographic areas of the city.

Introduction. I-1 Chapter 26. Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance Chapter 26. Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance Article I. Introduction. I Sec. 26.1.1. Title. This Chapter and the accompanying Zoning Map shall be known as the “Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance of the City of Vernon” (hereinafter this “Chapter”), which for convenience may be referred to as the “Zoning Ordinance” or “this Ordinance”. Sec. 26.1.2. Purpose and Intent. The purpose of this Chapter is to consolidate and coordinate all existing zoning regulations and provisions into one comprehensive zoning plan that designates, regulates, and restricts the use, location, and size of Buildings, Ancillary Structures, and land for industrial uses and other permitted purposes and that establishes performance and development standards in order to protect the public health, safety, and welfare. To achieve these purposes, this Chapter establishes one Zone within the City (Industrial) and various Overlay Zones of such number, shape, and area as have been deemed best suited to carry out these regulations and provide for the administration and enforcement of said regulations. It is declared that in the enactment of this Chapter, the City Council has given due and special consideration to the industrial nature of the City, and to the City’s continuing focus on providing a suitable location for industry and the infrastructure and services required to serve industrial activities. The City’s intent is to continue to support the ongoing industrial character of the City, while recognizing the changing industrial environment throughout the United States and globally, and to respond appropriately. The City Council has further seriously considered the impact of the City’s pervasive industrial environment and resulting land use incompatibilities with certain other uses as a result of, among other issues, the storage, use, transportation, and processing of hazardous materials; background contamination; noxious odors; noise pollution; and truck and railroad traffic throughout the City. Sec. 26.1.3. Interpretation and Conflicts. This Chapter supersedes and replaces all prior zoning codes or ordinances and amendments thereto, and represents the entire and complete zoning ordinance for the City as of the date of its effective date. Wherever the requirements of this Chapter are at variance with the requirements of any other lawfully adopted rule, regulation, or ordinance, the most restrictive or that imposing the higher standards shall govern. Sec. 26.1.4. Applicability. This Chapter shall apply as follows: Sec. 26.1.4-1. Buildings, Ancillary Structures, and Lots. Except as provided by this Chapter, no Building, Ancillary Structure, or Lot shall hereafter be used or occupied and no Building or Ancillary Structure or part thereof shall be erected, moved, or altered unless in conformity with the regulations herein specified for the Zone or Overlay Zone in which it is located, and then only after securing all permits and licenses required by any law or ordinance.

Sec. 26.1.4-3. Authority. Whenever a power is granted to or a duty imposed upon a public officer by this Chapter, the power may be exercised or the duty may be performed by the City Council, that officer or a duly authorized representative of that officer, or a person authorized pursuant to law or ordinance, unless this Chapter expressly provides otherwise. Sec. 26.1.5. Vested Right. Nothing in this Chapter shall create or be construed to create any vested right in any Person. Sec. 26.1.6. Severability. If any provision or clause of this Chapter or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of this Chapter which can be carried out without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this Chapter are declared to be severable. Sec. 26.1.7. Statute of Limitations for Actions Attacking General Plan, Zoning Ordinance, or Zoning Decisions. Except as otherwise provided in the California Government Code Section 65009, no action or proceeding to attack, review, set aside, void, or annul the City Council’s decision to adopt or amend its general plan or this Code, or any decision on the granting or denial of a Conditional Use Permit, Minor Conditional Use Permit, Temporary Use Permit, Variance, or Development Agreement, or to determine the reasonableness, legality, or validity of any condition attached to a Conditional Use Permit, Minor Conditional Use Permit, Temporary Use Permit, Variance, or Development Agreement or any other permit, or concerning any of the proceedings, acts, or determinations taken, done, or made prior to any decision in connection with any of the above, shall be maintained by any Person unless such action or proceeding is commenced and service is made on the City Council within ninety (90) days after the date of the City Council’s decision.

Article VII. Zoning Regulations for Adult or Sexually Oriented Businesses. VII-1 Chapter 26. Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance Article VII. Zoning Regulations for Adult or Sexually Oriented Businesses. VII Sec. 26.7.1. Purpose. It is the intent of this Article to prevent adverse economic impact to the businesses and residents of the City, and to take steps to minimize potential increased crime, increased incidence of communicable disease, decreased property values, and the deterioration of neighborhoods which can be brought about by the increase in the number of Adult or Sexually Oriented Businesses, or their location in close proximity to each other, or their proximity to other uses that are not compatible with Adult or Sexually Oriented Businesses.

It is, therefore, the purpose of this Article to establish reasonable and uniform regulations to prevent any increase in the number of, and any further concentration of Adult or Sexually Oriented Businesses, or their close proximity to incompatible uses, while permitting the existence of existing Adult or Sexually Oriented Businesses in certain limited areas. The requirements and regulations set forth in this Article VII Zoning Regulations for Adult or Sexually Oriented Businesses are in addition to the requirements set forth in Article VI Business Permit Regulations for Adult or Sexually Oriented Businesses or Similar Businesses of Chapter 5 Business License Taxes and Other City Taxes of the Code which set forth requirements for obtaining a business license.

No Adult or Sexually Oriented Business shall be opened as a new business, converted from an existing business, established, located, expanded, or operated within certain distances of certain specified land uses as set forth below: (a)No Adult or Sexually Oriented Business shall be established on a Lot located within one thousand (1,000) feet of any other Lot containing an Adult or Sexually Oriented Business, whether such other Lot is located inside or outside the City limits. The required minimum distance between any two Adult or Sexually Oriented Businesses shall be measured along the Street, whether public or private, from the nearest side or rear Lot lines of the Lots upon which such uses are located. (b)No person shall cause or permit the establishment or maintenance of more than one Adult or Sexually Oriented Business on the same Property. Article VII. Zoning Regulations for Adult or Sexually Oriented Businesses. Chapter 26.

The mailing was an invitation to attend one of two community workshops to discuss and provide input on the proposed revisions. Both workshops took place at Vernon City Hall Council Chambers. Comments received during the Community Workshops held on January 26th and February 5th regarding the proposed revisions are summarized in this memo. COMMENTS Residential Overlay x Long term property owner suggested that the City allow existing buildings to be used as lofts , art studios with living quarters etc. They mentioned that the City should not restrict locations for housing development, because in people eyes it seems that the only properties that can be developed are city owned properties. Instead of encouraging housing development…..it all looks one-sided. Retail and Commercial use x Why restrict wholesale businesses from doing retail. As it is, the majority of the wholesalers in Vernon are doing some type of retail. Why not make it easy for retailers, don’t restrict property owners/business owners from expanding its uses. x Owners should not be restricted from renting or leasing existing office space within their existing building and shall not limit ancillary uses. Owners rather see the space occupied rather than vacant Landscape requirement (5%) x Concern that the landscape requirement will be taking-up future parking and loading spaces, because of the increase it would also prevent more development for these smaller property sites.

6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW Air Quality 4.1 This section of the Supplemental EIR examines potential impacts to air quality in Vernon, and whether future development permitted due to changes to the General Plan and the Zoning Code and associated changes to the certified Program EIR would increase those impacts. The Initial Study (Appendix A) indicated that there will be no impacts relative to objectionable odors. Environmental Setting Vernon lies within the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB), a 6,600-square-mile coastal plain bounded by the Pacific Ocean to the west and the San Gabriel, San Bernardino, and San Jacinto mountains to the north and east. The SCAB includes all of Orange County and the non-desert portions of Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties. The SCAB is a non-attainment area for federal standards for carbon monoxide (CO). The SCAB is also a non-attainment area for federal and state air quality standards for ozone (O3), particulate matter less than 10 microns in diameter (PM10) and particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter (PM2.5). Climate and Meteorological Conditions Area climatological conditions are characterized by warm summers, mild winters, infrequent rainfall, moderate onshore daytime breezes, and moderate humidity. All seasons generally exhibit onshore wind flows during the day and offshore flows at night, after the land cools below the temperature of the ocean. The likelihood of strong offshore flows, including Santa Ana winds, is greater during winter than during summer. (California Air Resources Board, 1984) The topography and climate of Southern California combine to produce unhealthful air quality within the SCAB. Low temperature inversion, light winds, shallow vertical mixing, and extensive sunlight, in conjunction with topographical features such as adjacent mountain ranges that hinder dispersion of air pollutants, combine to create degraded air quality, especially in inland valleys of the basin. Existing Air Quality Conditions Air quality is determined primarily by the type and amount of contaminants emitted into the atmosphere, the size and topography of a basin, and a basin’s meteorological conditions. Atmospheric conditions such as wind speed, wind direction, and air temperature gradients, along with local topography, provide the link between air pollution emissions and air quality. The Program Environmental Impact Report discussed air quality standards, regulations, and pollutant concentrations. The SCAQMD regulates air quality improvement programs within the SCAB and works to improve regional air quality to achieve federal and state standards. The monitoring stations record concentrations of various pollutants including: O3, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), PM10, particulate matter less than 2.5 microns $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-2 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH in diameter (PM2.5), lead (Pb), and sulfates (SO4). An updated Table 4.1-1 summarizes the state and federal standards and sources of criteria pollutants as of 2012. Air pollution levels are measured at monitoring stations located throughout the Basin. Areas that are in nonattainment with respect to criteria pollutants are required to prepare plans and implement measures that will bring the region into attainment. Table 4.1-2 (South Coast Air Basin Attainment Status) summarizes the attainment status in the Basin for the criteria pollutants. The Basin is currently in nonattainment status for ozone and inhalable and fine particulate matter. Pollution problems in the Basin are caused by emissions within the area and the specific meteorology that promotes pollutant concentrations. Emissions sources vary widely from smaller sources such as individual residential water heaters and short-term grading activities to extensive operational sources including long-term operation of electrical power plants and other intense industrial use. Pollutants in the Basin are blown inward from coastal areas by sea breezes from the Pacific Ocean and are prevented from horizontally dispersing due to the surrounding mountains. This is further complicated by atmospheric temperature inversions that create inversion layers. The inversion layer in Southern California refers to the warm layer of air that lies over the cooler air from the Pacific Ocean. This is strongest in the summer and prevents ozone and other pollutants from dispersing upward. A ground-level surface inversion commonly occurs during winter nights and traps carbon monoxide emitted during the morning rush hour. Measurements taken by SCAQMD at the Central Los Angeles monitoring station from 2001 to 2005 were summarized in the certified Program EIR. Table 4.1-3 summarizes measurements taken from 2006 to 2012 and shows that air quality standards at these locations have been exceeded for PM2.5, PM10, and O3. This is consistent with the entire SCAB's classification as non-attainment for PM10 and O3. The following summary of pollutants was provided in the Program EIR with updated information on exceedance of standards for Ozone. All other pollutants Ozone (O3). The most pervasive air quality problem in the Basin is high ozone concentrations. Ozone is the principal component of smog and is formed in the atmosphere through a complex series of photochemical reactions involving volatile organic compounds (VOC) and nitrogen oxides (NOX), which are commonly referred to as precursors of O3 and are both considered critical in O3 formation; NOX includes various combinations of nitrogen and oxygen, including NO, NO2, NO3, etc. Significant O3 production generally requires about three hours in a stable atmosphere with strong sunlight. Ozone is a regional air pollutant because it is transported and diffused by wind concurrent with the photochemical reaction process. Motor vehicles are the major source of ozone precursors in the air basin. During late spring, summer, and early fall, light winds, low mixing heights, and abundant sunshine combine to produce conditions favorable for maximum production of O3. Ozone causes eye and respiratory irritation, reduces resistance to lung infection, and may aggravate pulmonary conditions in persons with lung disease. Ozone is also damaging to vegetation and untreated rubber. Control $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 3 strategies for O3 have focused on reducing emissions from vehicles, industrial processes using solvents and coatings, and consumer products. In each of the five latest years for which air quality data exists (2006-2012), the state 1-hour ozone standard was exceeded in Central Los Angeles for as many as eight days (see Table 4.1-4). In 1997, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) issued a new standard for O3, using an 8-hour average. After years of litigation, the standard was approved and attainment designations were made. Los Angeles County is in nonattainment for both the state and federal standards; federal standards were exceeded at the Central Los Angeles monitoring station for a total of five days between 2001 and 2005, with the most in one year being two days in 2003. In June of 2005, the federal 1-hour O3 standard was revoked by the USEPA. Carbon Monoxide (CO). CO is a colorless and odorless gas which, in the urban environment, is associated primarily with the incomplete combustion of fossil fuels in motor vehicles. Relatively high concentrations are typically found near crowded intersections and along heavily used roadways carrying slow-moving traffic. Even under the most severe meteorological and traffic conditions, high concentrations of CO are limited to locations within a relatively short distance (300 to 600 feet) of heavily traveled roadways. Overall, CO emissions are decreasing as a result of the Federal Motor Vehicle Control Program, which has mandated increasingly lower emission levels for vehicles manufactured since 1973. Concentrations of CO are typically higher in winter. As a result, California has required the use of oxygenated gasoline in the winter months to reduce CO emissions. CO interferes with the transfer of oxygen to the blood. It may cause dizziness and fatigue and can impair central nervous system functions. The 1-hour and 8-hour average CO standards have not been exceeded at the Central Los Angeles Monitoring Station during the last five years (see Table 4.1-4). Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2). There are two oxides of nitrogen that are important in air pollution: nitric oxide (NO) and NO2. NO, along with some NO2, is emitted from motor vehicle engines, power plants, refineries, industrial boilers, ships, aircraft, and railroads. NO2 is primarily formed when NO reacts with atmospheric oxygen in the presence of VOC and sunlight; the other product of this reaction is O3. Nitrogen dioxide is the whiskey-brown colored gas, more commonly known as smog, observed during periods of heavy air pollution. Concentrations of NO2 are highest during the late fall and winter. NO2 increases damage from respiratory disease and irritation, and may reduce resistance to certain infections. Neither the federal nor state standards for NO2 have been exceeded in Central Los Angeles during the last five years (see Table 4.1-4). Particulate Matter (PM). PM is a complex mixture of extremely small particles and liquid droplets. PM is made up of a number of components, including acids (such as nitrates and sulfates), organic chemicals, metals, and soil or dust particles. Natural sources of particulates include windblown dust and ocean spray. $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-4 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH The size of PM is directly linked to the potential for causing health problems. The USEPA is concerned about particles that are 10 micrometers in diameter or smaller because those are the particles that generally pass through the throat and nose and enter the lungs. Once inhaled, these particles can affect the heart and lungs and cause serious health effects. Health studies have shown a significant association between exposure to PM and premature death. Other important effects include aggravation of respiratory and cardiovascular disease, lung disease, decreased lung function, asthma attacks, and certain cardiovascular problems such as heart attacks and irregular heart beat (USEPA 2006). Individuals particularly sensitive to fine particle exposure include older adults, people with heart and lung disease, and children. The USEPA groups PM into two categories: fine particulate matter and coarse particulate matter. Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5). Fine particles, such as those found in smoke and haze, are 2.5 micrometers in diameter and smaller. Sources of fine particles include all types of combustion activities (motor vehicles, power plants, wood burning, etc.) and certain industrial processes. PM2.5 is the major cause of reduced visibility (haze) in California. Ammonium nitrates and ammonium sulfates represent a dominant fraction of PM2.5 components and are formed in the atmosphere thorough secondary reactions of precursor emissions of NOx, SOx and ammonia. Reducing the sulfur content of fuels has proven to be an effective measure of control for SOx reductions, and thereby PM2.5. Control of PM2.5 is primarily achieved through the regulation of emission sources, such as the USEPA’s Clean Air Interstate Rule and Clean Air Visibility Rule for stationary sources, and the 2004 Clean Air Non-road Diesel Rule, the Tier 2 Vehicle Emission Standards, and Gasoline Sulfur Program; or the California Air Resources Board (CARB) Goods Movement reduction plan. Coarse Particulate Matter (PM10). Inhalable coarse particles, such as those found near roadways and dusty industries, are larger than 2.5 micrometers and smaller than 10 micrometers in diameter. Sources of coarse particles include crushing or grinding operations and dust from paved or unpaved roads. The health effects of PM10 are similar to PM2.5. Control of PM10 is primarily achieved through the control of dust at construction and industrial sites, the cleaning of paved roads, and the wetting or paving of frequently used unpaved roads. Sulfur Dioxide (SO2). SO2 is a combustion product, with the primary source being power plants and heavy industry that use coal or oil as fuel. SO2 is also a product of diesel engine combustion. The health effects of SO2 include lung disease and breathing problems for asthmatics. SO2 in the atmosphere contributes to the formation of acid rain. In the SCAB, there is relatively little use of coal and oil, and SO2 is of lesser concern than in many other parts of the country. The federal and state standards for SO2 have not been exceeded in the last five years at the Central Los Angeles Monitoring Station (see Table 4.1-4). $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 5 Table 4.1-1 National and California Ambient Air Quality Standards Pollutant Averaging Time California Standards1 Federal Standards2 Concentration3 Method4 Primary3.5 Secontary3.6 Method7 Ozone (O3) 1 Hour 0.09 ppm (180 μg/m3)Ultraviolet Photometry -Same as Primary Standard Ultraviolet Photometry 8 Hour 0.07 ppm (137 μg/m3) 0.075 ppm (147 μg/m3) Respirable Particulate Matter (PM10) 24 Hour 50 μg/m3 Gravimetric or Beta Attenuation 150 μg/m3 Same as Primary Standard Inertial Separation and Gravimetric Analysis Annual Arithmetic Mean 20 μg/m3 - Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5) 24 Hour No Separate State Standard 35 μg/m3 Same as Primary Standard Inertial Separation and Gravimetric Analysis Annual Arithmetic Mean 12 μg/m3 Gravimetric or Beta Attenuation 15 μg/m3 Carbon Monoxide (CO) 1 Hour 20 ppm (23 mg/ m3) Non-Dispersive Infrared Photometry (NDIR) 35 ppm (40 mg/m3)None Non-Dispersive Infrared Photometry (NDIR) - 1 Hour 9.0 ppm (10mg/m3) 9 ppm (10 mg/m3) 8 Hour (Lake Tahoe) 6 ppm (7 mg/ m3)- - Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) Annual Arithmetic Mean 0.03 ppm (57 μg/m3)Gas Phase Chemiluminescence 0.053 ppm (100 μg/m3) Same as Primary Standard Gas Phase Chemiluminescence 1 Hour 0.18 ppm (339 μg/m3) 100 ppb (188 μg/m3)- Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) 1 Hour 0.25 ppm (655 μg/m3) Ultraviolet Fluorescence 75 ppb (196 μg/m3)- Ultraviolet Fluorescence; Spectrophotometry (Pararosaniline Method) - 3 Hour - - 0.5 ppm (1,300 μg/m3) 24 Hour 0.04 ppm (105 μg/m3) 0.14 ppm (for certain areas)9 - Annual Arithmetic Mean - 0.030 ppm (for certain areas)9 - Lead9 30 Day Average 1.5 μg/m3 Atomic Absorption -- High Volume Sampler and Atomic Absorption Calendar Quarter - 1.5 μg/m3 (for certain areas)11 Same as Primary Standard Rolling 3-Month Average10 - 0.15 μg/m3 Visibility Reducing Particles 8 Hour See footnote 12 Beta Attenuation and Transmittance through Filter Tape No Federal Standards Sulfates 24 Hour 25 μg/m3 Ion Chromatography Hydrogen Sulfide 1 Hour 0.03 ppm (42 μg/m3)Ultraviolet Fluorescence Vinyl Chloride9 24 Hour 0.01 ppm (26 μg/m3)Gas Chromatography Source: ARB, June 2012 PPM, parts per million μg/m3, micrograms per cubic meter 1.

All others are not to be equaled or exceeded. California ambient air quality standards are listed in the Table of Standards in Section 70200 of Title 17 of the California Code of Regulations. 2. National standards (other than ozone, particulate matter, and those based on annual averages or annual arithmetic mean) are not to be exceeded more than once a year. The ozone standard is attained when the fourth highest eight-hour concentration in a year, averaged over three years, is equal to or less than the standard. For PM10, the 24-hour standard is attained when the expected number of days per calendar year with a 24-hour average concentration above 150 Njg/m3 is equal to or less than one. For PM2.5, the 24-hour standard is attained when 98 percent of the daily concentrations, averaged over three years, are equal to or less than the standard. Contact U.S. EPA for further clarification and current federal policies. 3.Concentration expressed first in units in which it was promulgated. Equivalent units given in parentheses are based upon a reference temperature of 25°C and a reference pressure of 760 torr. Most measurements of air quality are to be corrected to a reference temperature of 25°C and a reference pressure of 760 torr; ppm in this table refers to ppm by volume, or micromoles of pollutant per mole of gas. 4. Any equivalent procedure which can be shown to the satisfaction of the ARB to give equivalent results at or near the level of the air quality standard may be used. 5. National Primary Standards: The levels of air quality necessary, with an adequate margin of safety to protect the public health. 6. National Secondary Standards: The levels of air quality necessary to protect the public welfare from any known or anticipated adverse effects of a pollutant. 7. Reference method as described by the EPA. An “equivalent method” of measurement may be used but must have a “consistent relationship to the reference method” and must be approved by the EPA. 8. To attain the 1-hour national standard, the 3-year average of the 98th percentile of the daily maximum 1-hour average at each monitor within an area must not exceed 100ppb. To directly compare the national standards to the California standards the units can be converted from ppb to ppm. In this case, the national standards of 100ppb is identical to 0.100ppm. 9. On June 2, 2010, a new 1-hour SO2 standard was established and the existing 24-hour and annual primary standards were revoked. To attain the 1-hour national standard, the 3-year average of the annual 99th percentile of the 1-hour daily maximum concentrations at each site must not exceed 75 ppb. The 1971 SO2 national standards (24-hour and annual) remain in effect until one year after an area is designated for the 2010 standard, except that in areas designated nonattainment for the 1971 stanards, the 1971 standards remain in effect until implementation plans to attain or maintain the 2010 standards are approved. Note that the 1-hour national standard is in units of parts per billion (ppb). California standards are in units of parts per million (ppm). To directly compare the 1-hour national standard to the California standard the units can be converted to ppm. In this case, the national standard of 75 ppb is identical to 0.075 ppm. 10. The ARB has identified lead and vinyl chloride as “toxic air contaminants” with no threshold level of exposure for adverse health effects determined. These actions allow for the implementation of control measures at levels below the ambient concentrations specified for these pollutants. 11. The national standard for lead was revised on October 15, 2008 to a rolling 3-month average. The 1978 lead standard (1.5 μg/m3 as a quarterly average) remains in effect until one year after an area is designated for the 2008 standard, except that in areas designated nonattainment for the 1978 standard, the 1978 standard remains in effect until implementation plans to attain or maintain the 2008 standard are approved. 12. In 1989, the ARB converted both the general statewide 10-mile visibility standard and the Lake Tahoe 30-mile visibility standard to instrumental equivalents, which are “extinction of 0.23 per kilometer” and “extinction of 0.07 per kilometer” for the statewide and Lake Tahoe Air Basin standards, respectively. $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 7 Table 4.1-2 South Coast Air Basin Attainment Status Pollutant Federal State O3 (1-hr) -- Nonattainment O3 (8-hr) Nonattainment Nonattainment PM10 Nonattainment Nonattainment PM2.5 Nonattainment Nonattainment CO Attainment Attainment NO2 Attainment Nonattainment SO2 Attainment Attainment Pb Nonattainment Nonattainment VRP -- Unclassified SO4 -- Attainment H2S -- Unclassified Sources: ARB 2013 Table 4.1-3 Air Quality Data for 2006 to 2012: Central Los Angeles Monitoring Station Pollutant (units) Averaging Time Maximum Concentrationsi 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 O3 (ppm) 1 hour 0.11 0.115 0.109 0.139 0.098 0.087 0.093 8 hours 0.079 0.102 0.090 0.100 0.080 0.065 0.077 CO (ppm) 1 hour 3 3 3 3 3 N/A N/A 8 hours 2.6 2.2 2.1 2.2 2.3 2.4 1.9 NO2 (ppm) 1 hour 0.11 0.10 0.12 0.12 0.089 0.110 77.3* Annual (AAM) 0.0288 0.0299 0.0275 0.0281 0.025 0.0231 24.8* PM10 (μg/m3) 24 hours 59 78 66 72 42 53 80 Annual(AAM) 30.3 33.3 30.9 33.1 27.1 29.0 30.2 PM2.5 (μg/m3) 24 hours 56.2 64.2 78.3 61.7 39.2 49.3 58.7 Annual (AAM) 15.6 16.8 15.7 14.3 11.9 13.0 12.5 SO2 (ppm) 1 hour 0.03 0.01 0.01 0.01 9.8* 19.8* 5.2* 24 hours 0.006 0.003 0.002 0.002 1.5* N/A N/A Source: South Coast Air Quality Management District, 2006-2012. * In ppb Table 4.1-4 2006-2012 Air Quality Standards Exceedance Year O3 (PPM) PM10 (μg/m3)PM2.5 (μg/m3) Fed* 8-hr State 1-hr State 8-hr Fed 24-hr State 24-hr Fed^ 24-hr 2006 0 8 4 0 3 (5.1) 11 (3.3) 2007 3 3 6 0 5 (9) 20 (0.6) 2008 3 3 7 0 2 (4%) 10 (3.0) 2009 2 3 5 0 4 (6.7) 7 (1.9) 2010 1 1 1 0 0 2 (0.6%) 2011 0 0 0 0 1 (2%) 4 (1.2%) 2012 1 0 2 0 4 4 Source: SCAQMD 2006-2012 -- pollutant not monitored * 0.075 ppm ^35 μg/m3 $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-8 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH Sensitive Receptors The SCAQMD defines sensitive receptors as populations more susceptible to the effects of air pollution than the general population. Sensitive receptors, as defined by SCAQMD and used in this section of this Supplemental EIR, include asthmatics, the elderly, very young children, people already weakened by other disease or illness, and persons engaged in strenuous work or exercise. Sensitive receptors located in or near the vicinity of known air emissions sources, including freeways and heavily traveled intersections, are of particular concern. Toxic Air Pollutants Toxic air pollutants, such as asbestos, can be emitted during the demolition of buildings that contain toxic contaminants and during the operation of certain industrial processes that utilize toxic substances. Federal and state governments have implemented a number of programs to control toxic air emissions. For example, the federal Clean Air Act provides a program for the control of hazardous air pollutants. In addition, the California legislature has enacted programs such as the Tanner Toxics Act (AB1807), the Air Toxics Hot Spot Assessment Program (AB2588), the Toxics Emissions Near Schools Program (AB3205) and the Disposal Site Air Monitoring Program (AB3374). Additionally, mobile sources can also contribute to toxic air pollution. The Multiple Air Toxics Exposure Study (MATES-II) is a comprehensive monitoring study of TACs that was initiated as part of AQMD’s environmental justice program. This study revealed that diesel exhaust is responsible for approximately 70 percent of the total cancer risk from air pollution. While diesel is considered a toxic air pollutant, and as such is called a “non-criteria” air contaminant because ambient air quality standards have not been established, diesel pollution may be addressed under measures that seek to control PM2.5 because diesel pollution manifests as ultrafine particulate matter. Regulatory Framework The Program EIR includes a summary of the Federal Clean Air Act, the California Clean Air Act, and the 2003 and 2007 SCAQMD Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP), all of which are applicable to the current project. The SCAQMD AQMP was updated in 2012. The 2012 AQMP was adopted by the SCAQMD board on December 7, 2012. The 2012 AQMP incorporated the latest scientific and technological information and planning assumptions, including the 2012 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy and updated emission inventory methodologies for various source categories. The 2012 AQMP includes the new and changing federal requirements, implementation of new technology measures, and the continued development of economically sound, flexible compliance approaches. The SCAQMD is currently in the process of preparing the 2015 AQMP update. $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 9 The SCAQMD has published a handbook (CEQA Air Quality Handbook, November 1993) that provides local governments with guidance for analyzing and mitigating project-specific air quality impacts. This handbook provides standards, methodologies, and procedures for conducting air quality analyses in EIRs. In order to control air pollution in the Basin, SCAQMD adopts rules that establish permissible air pollutant emissions and governs a variety of businesses, processes, operations, and products to implement the AQMP and the various federal and state air quality requirements. SCAQMD does not adopt rules for mobile sources; those are established by ARB or the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Rules that will be applicable during construction of future development include Rule 403 (Fugitive Dust) and Rule 1113 (Architectural Coatings). Rule 403 prohibits emissions of fugitive dust from any grading activity, storage pile, or other disturbed surface area if it crosses the project property line or if emissions caused by vehicle movement cause substantial impairment of visibility (defined as exceeding 20 percent opacity in the air). Rule 403 requires the implementation of Best Available Control Measures (BACM) and includes additional provisions for projects disturbing more than five acres and those disturbing more than fifty acres. Rule 1113 establishes the thresholds for low-VOC coatings. Global Climate Change Global climate change (GCC) refers to the change in average meteorological conditions on the Earth with respect to temperature, wind patterns, precipitation and storms. Global temperatures are regulated by naturally occurring atmospheric gases such as water vapor, CO2 (carbon dioxide), N2O (nitrous oxide), CH4 (methane), hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, and sulfur hexafluoride. These particular gases are important due to their residence time (duration they stay) in the atmosphere, which ranges from 10 years to more than 100 years. These gases allow solar radiation into the Earth’s atmosphere, but prevent heat from escaping, thus warming the Earth’s atmosphere. GCC can occur naturally as it has in the past with the previous ice ages. According to CARB, the climate change that is currently in effect differs from previous climate changes in both rate and magnitude (CARB, 2004, Technical Support document for Staff Proposal Regarding Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Motor Vehicles). Gases that trap heat in the atmosphere are often referred to as greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere by both natural and anthropogenic (human) activity. Without the natural greenhouse gas effect, the Earth’s average temperature would be approximately 61° Fahrenheit (F) cooler than it is currently. The cumulative accumulation of these gases in the earth’s atmosphere is considered to be the cause for the observed increase in the earth’s temperature. Although California’s rate of growth of greenhouse gas emissions is slowing, the state is still a substantial contributor. In 2004, the state is estimated to have produced 492 million gross metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent greenhouse gas emissions. Despite a population increase of 16 percent between 1990 and $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-10 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH 2004, California has significantly slowed the rate of growth of greenhouse gas emissions due to the implementation of energy efficiency programs as well as adoption of strict emission controls. Global climate change first became a matter of concern in the 1980s, and the United Nations in 1988 created the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change to assess the potential impacts of global warming and develop strategies that could be instituted by nations in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In California, efforts to reduce California’s energy use began in the 1970s, although not in response to global climate change concerns. Title 24 Part 6, enacted in 1978, required buildings to meet energy efficiency standards. Vehicle emissions of greenhouse gases were targeted in 2002 with the passage of AB1493, which required CARB to develop regulations to limit greenhouse gas emissions by cars and light duty trucks. These measures went into effect in 2009, and it is estimated that vehicle emissions of greenhouse gases will be reduced by approximately 18 percent by 2020. (CARB 2004) Although the United States has pledged over $29 billion for research into global climate change, the USEPA does not currently regulate vehicle greenhouse gas emissions. However, the USEPA does have the authority to regulate vehicle greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act, as found in the Supreme Court ruling in Massachusetts v. USEPA (2007). In 2006, AB 32, the California Global Warming Solutions Act, was signed into law by Governor Schwarzenegger, giving CARB the primary responsibility in reducing statewide greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. CARB is also required by January 1, 2008 to determine greenhouse gas emission levels for 1990 and to approve a statewide greenhouse gas emissions limit to be achieved by 2020 that is based on this limit. Specific, anticipated impacts to California have been identified in the 2009 California Climate Adaptation Strategy prepared by the California Natural Resources Agency (CNRA) through extensive modeling efforts.ii General climate changes in California indicate that: x California is likely to get hotter and drier as climate change occurs with a reduction in winter snow, particularly in the Sierra Nevadas x Some reduction in precipitation is likely by the middle of the century x Sea-levels will rise up to an estimated 55 inches x Extreme events such as heat waves, wildfires, droughts, and floods will increase x Ecological shifts of habitat and animals are already occurring and will continue to occur It should be noted that changes are based on the results of several models prepared under different climatic scenarios; therefore, discrepancies occur between the projections. The potential impacts of global climate change in California are detailed below. $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 11 Public Health and Welfare Concerns related to public health and climate change includes higher rates of mortality and morbidity, change in prevalence and spread of disease vectors, decreases in food quality and security, reduced water availability, and increased exposure to pesticides. These concerns are all generally related to increase in ambient outdoor air temperature, particularly in summer. Higher rates of mortality and morbidity could arise from more frequent heat waves at greater intensities. Health impacts associated with extreme heat events include heat stroke, heat exhaustion, and exacerbation of medical conditions such as cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, diabetes, nervous system disorders, emphysema, and epilepsy. Climate change would result in degradation of air quality promoting the formation of ground-level pollutants, particularly ozone. Degradation of air quality would increase the severity of health impacts from criteria and other air pollutants discussed in Section 4.3 (Air Quality). Temperature increases and increases in carbon dioxide are also expected to increase plant production of pollens, spores, and fungus. Pollens and spores could induce or aggravate allergic rhinitis, asthma, and obstructive pulmonary diseases. Precipitation projections suggest that California will become drier over the next century due to reduced precipitation and increased evaporation from higher temperatures. These conditions could result in increased occurrences of drought. Surface water reductions will increase the need to pump groundwater, reducing supplies and increasing the potential for land subsidence. Precipitation changes are also suspected to impact the Sierra snowpack (see Water Management herein). Earlier snow melts could coincide with the rainy season and could result in failure of the flood control devices in that region. Flooding can cause property damage and loss of life for those affected. Increased wildfires are also of concern as the State dries over time. Wildfires can also cause property damage, loss of life, and injuries to citizens and emergency response services. Sea-level rises would also threaten human health and welfare. Flood risks will be increased in coastal areas due to strengthened storm surges and greater tidal damage that could result in injury and loss of property and life. Gradual rising of the sea will permanently inundate many coastal areas in the state. Other concerns related to public health are changes in the range, incidence, and spread of infectious, water-borne, and food-borne diseases. Changes in humidity levels, distribution of surface water, and precipitation changes are all likely to shift or increase the preferred range of disease vectors (i.e. mosquitoes). This could expose more people and animals to potential for vector-borne disease. Biodiversity and Habitat Changes in temperature will change the livable ranges of plants and animals throughout the state and cause considerable stress on these species. Species will shift their range if appropriate habitat is available and accessible if they cannot $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-12 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH adapt to their new climate. If they do not adapt or shift, they face local extirpation or extinction. As the climate changes, community compositions and interactions will be interrupted and changed. These have substantial implications on the ecosystems in the state. Extreme events will lead to tremendous stress and displacement on affected species. This could make it easier for invasive species to enter new areas, due to their ability to more easily adapt. Precipitation changes would alter stream flow patterns and affect fish populations during their life cycle. Sea level rises could impact fragile wetland and other coastal habitat. Water Management Although disagreement among scientists on long-term precipitation patterns in the State has occurred, it is generally accepted by scientists that rising temperatures will impact California’s water supply due to changes in the Sierra Nevada snowpack. Currently, the State’s water infrastructure is designed to both gather and convey water from melting snow and to serve as a flood control device. Snowpack melts gradually through spring warming into early summer, releasing an average of approximately 15 million acre-feet of water. The State’s concern related to climate change is that due to rising temperatures, snowpack melt will begin earlier in the spring and will coincide with the rainy season. The combination of precipitation and snowmelt would overwhelm the current system, requiring tradeoffs between water storage and flood protection to be made. Reduction in reserves from the Sierra Nevada snowpack is troublesome for California and particularly for Southern California. Approximately 75-percent of California’s available water supply originates in the northern third of the state while 80 percent of demand occurs in the southern two-thirds. There is also concern that rising temperatures will result in decreasing volumes from the Colorado River basin. Colorado River water is important to Southern California because it supplies water directly to Metropolitan Water District of Southern California. Water from the Colorado River is also used to recharge groundwater basins in the Coachella Valley. Agriculture California is the most agriculturally productive state in the U.S. resulting in more than 37 billion dollars in revenue in 2008. California is the nation’s leading producer of nearly 80 crops and livestock commodities, supplying more than half of the nation’s fruit and vegetables and over 90 percent of the nation’s production of almonds, apricots, raisin grapes, olives, pistachios, and walnuts. Production of crops is not limited to the Central Valley but also occurs in Southern California. Strawberries and grapes are grown in San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. Orange County and San Diego County also contribute to strawberry production. Cherries are also grown in Los Angeles and Riverside County. Anticipated impacts to agricultural resources are mixed when compared to the potentially increased temperatures, reduced chill hours, and changes in precipitation associated with climate change. For example, wheat, cotton, maize, sunflower, and rice are anticipated to show declining yields as temperatures rise. Conversely, grapes and almonds would benefit from warming temperatures. Anticipated increases in the number and severity in heat waves would have a negative impact on livestock where heat stress would make livestock more vulnerable to disease, infection and $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 13 mortality. The projected drying trend and changes in precipitation are a threat to agricultural production in California. Reduced water reliability and changes in weather patterns would impact irrigated farmlands and reduce food security. Furthermore, a drying trend would increase wildfire risk. Overall, agriculture in California is anticipated to suffer due to climate change impacts. Forestry Increases in wildfires will substantially impact California’s forest resources that are prime targets for wildfires. This can increase public safety risks, property damage, emergency response costs, watershed quality, and habitat fragmentation. Climate change is also predicted to affect the behavior or plant species including seed production, seedling establishment, growth, and vigor due to rising temperatures. Precipitation changes will affect forests due to longer dry periods and moisture deficits and drought conditions that limit seedling and sapling growth. Prolonged drought also weakens trees, making them more susceptible to disease and pest invasion. Furthermore, as trees die due to disease and pest invasion (i.e. the Bark Beetle invasion of the San Bernardino Forest), wildfires can spread more rapidly. Transportation and Energy Infrastructure Higher temperatures will require increased cooling, raising energy production demand. Higher temperatures also decrease the efficiency of distributing electricity and could lead to more power outages during peak demand. Climate changes would impact the effectiveness of California’s transportation infrastructure as extreme weather events damage, destroy, and impair roadways and railways throughout the state causing governmental costs to increase as well as impacts to human life as accidents increase. Other infrastructure costs and potential impacts to life would increase due to the need to upgrade levees and other flood control devices throughout the state. Infrastructure improvement costs related to climate change adaptation are estimated in the tens of billions of dollars. The global warming potential (GWP) is a measure of how much a given mass of greenhouse gas is estimated to contribute to global warming. It is a relative scale which compares the gas being measured to carbon dioxide (whose GWP is by definition 1). GWP is based on a number of factors, including the heat-absorbing ability of each gas and the decay rate of each gas relative to that of carbon dioxide. The higher the GWP, the more impact the gas has on global warming. The GWP measures in this report are based on a 100-year time horizon. The principal greenhouse gases resulting from anthropogenic activity that enter and accumulate in the atmosphere are discussed below: x Carbon Dioxide (CO2): Carbon dioxide is created in the combustion of fossil fuels, forest clearing, and biomass burning. Human activity is more closely tied to carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere than other greenhouse gases, and carbon dioxide is used as a reference to compare the impacts of other greenhouse gases. Concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere have typically increased at a rate of 0.5% per year and levels today are 30% higher than those prior to the industrial revolution. $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-14 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH x Methane (CH4): Methane is a hydrocarbon produced through production and distribution of natural gas and oil, coal production, incomplete fuel combustion, waste decomposition, and animal digestion. Methane concentrations in the atmosphere are over twice their pre-industrial levels, and increasing 0.6% each year, although this rate is thought to be slowing. The global warming potential of methane is 23.iii x Nitrous Oxide (N2O): Nitrous oxide is emitted during fossil fuel combustion, biomass burning, and certain agricultural and industrial activities. Compared to carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide is an especially dangerous greenhouse gas, with a global warming potential of 296. x Fluorinated Gases: Hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, and sulfur hexafluoride are synthetic, powerful greenhouse gases that are emitted from a variety of industrial processes. Fluorinated gases are often used as substitutes for ozone-depleting substances (i.e., CFCs, HCFCs, and halons). These gases are typically emitted in smaller quantities, but because they are some of the most potent greenhouse gases, they are referred to as having a “High Global Warming Potential.” The global warming potential of these gases ranges from 140 to 23,900. Since adoption of the Program EIR, the Air Resources Board Scoping Plan, Executive Order S-3-05, the Sustainable Communities and Climate Protection Act, California Green Building Standards, and the Water Conservation Landscaping Act were adopted. In addition, the City of Vernon has established a goal to become a leader in environmentally responsible energy generation. Air Resources Board Scoping Plan The ARB Scoping Plan is the comprehensive plan to reach the GHG reduction targets stipulated in AB 32. The key elements of the plan are to expand and strengthen energy efficiency programs, achieve a statewide renewable energy mix of 33 percent, develop a cap-and-trade program with other partners in the Western Climate Initiative (includes seven states in the United States and four territories in Canada), establish transportation-related targets, and establish fees.iv ARB estimates that implementation of Scoping Plan measures will reduce GHG emissions in the state by 174 MMTC2E by 2020; therefore, implementation of the Scoping Plan will meet the 2020 reduction target. In a report prepared on September 23, 2010, ARB indicates that 40 percent of the reduction measures identified in the Scoping Plan have been secured.v ARB held the hearing for the cap-and-trade program rulemaking on December 16, 2010. The cap-and-trade program began January 1, 2012 after ARB completed a series of activities that deal with the registration process, compliance cycle, and tracking system; however, covered entities will not have an emissions obligation until 2013.vi ARB is currently working on the low carbon fuel standard where public hearings and workshops are currently being conducted. In August 2011, the Scoping Plan was reapproved by the ARB Board with the program’s environmental documentation. $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 15 Executive Order S-3-05 Executive Order S-3-05 was issued by California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and established targets for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions at the milestone years of 2010, 2020, and 2050. Statewide GHG emissions must be reduced to 1990 levels by year 2020 and by 80 percent beyond that by year 2050. The Order requires the Secretary of the California Environmental Protection Agency (CalEPA) to coordinate with other State departments to identify strategies and reduction programs to meet the identified targets. A Climate Action Team (CAT) was created and is headed by the Secretary of CalEPA who reports on the progress of the reduction strategies. The latest CAT Biennial Report to the Governor and Legislature was completed in December 2010.vii CAT also works in 11 subgroups to support development and implementation of the Scoping Plan (see California Global Warming Solutions Act herein).

SB 375 tasks ARB to set greenhouse gas reduction targets for each of the California’s 18 regional Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs). Each MPO is required to prepare a Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS) as part of their Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). The SCS is a growth strategy in combination with transportation policies that will show how the MPO will meet its GHG reduction target. If the SCS cannot meet the reduction goal, an Alternative Planning Strategy (APS) may be adopted that meets the goal through alternative development, infrastructure, and transportation measures or policies. In the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) region (in which the project is located), sub-regions can also elect to prepare their own SCS or APS. In August 2010, ARB released the proposed GHG reduction targets for the MPOs to be adopted in September 2010. The proposed reduction targets for the SCAG region were 8-percent by year 2020 and 13-percent by year 2035. The 8-percent year 2020 target was adopted in September 2010 and tentatively adopted the 13- percent year 2035 target until February 2011 to provide additional time for SCAG, ARB, and other stakeholders to account for additional resources (such as state transportation funds) needed to achieve the proposed targets. In February 2011, the SCAG President affirmed the year 2035 reduction target and SCAG staff updated ARB on additional funding opportunities. The status of funding was requested to be revisited again in year 2014. California Green Building Standards New California Green Building Standards Code (CALGREEN) went into effect on January 1, 2011.ix The purpose of the new addition to the California Building Code (CBC) is to improve public health, safety, and general welfare by enhancing the design and construction of buildings using concepts to reduce negative impacts or produce positive impacts on the environment. The CALGREEN regulations cover planning and design, energy efficient, water efficiency and conservation, material conservation and resources efficiency, and environmental quality. Many of the new regulations have the effect of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 17 operation of new buildings. Table 4.1-6 (CALGREEN Requirements) summarizes the previous requires of the CBC and the new requirements of CALGREEN that went into effect in January 2011. Minor technical revisions and additional requirements went into effect in July 2012.

The ordinance is to address water conservation through appropriate use and grouping of plants based on environmental conditions, water budgeting to maximize irrigation efficiency, storm water retention, and automatic irrigation systems. Failure to adopt a water efficiency ordinance requires a local jurisdiction to enforce the provisions of the State’s model water efficiency ordinance. In 2009, the Department of Water Resources (DWR) updated the Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance pursuant to amendments to the 1991 Act. These amendments and the new model ordinance went into effect on January 1, 2010. The amended Act is applicable to any new commercial, multi-family, industrial or tract home project containing 2,500 square feet (SF) or more of landscaping. Individual landscape projects of 5,000 SF or more on single-family properties will also be subject to the Act. All landscape plans are required to include calculations verifying conformance with the maximum applied water allowance and must be prepared and stamped by a licensed landscape architect. Green Vernon Vernon is committed to green energy and development. Listed below are ways the city is planning to achieve its goal of becoming a leader in environmentally responsible energy generation and environmentally sustainable city management.x x Vernon purchased 30,000 acres of property in Kern County for the development of wind and solar-generated electricity. The initial proposed wind energy project is expected to generate 175 megawatts of renewable energy. x A climate action plan will be prepared to guide the City on how to take advantage of opportunities to reduce emissions of gases linked to climate change. x The city has commissioned a study to create a Green Industrial Development Plan to establish a series of programs to enhance environmental sustainability and support economic vitality while protecting the health of its residents and workers and the residents in surrounding communities. Threshold for Determining Significance Air Quality For the purpose of this EIR, a significant impact will occur if implementation of the updated General Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance will: A. Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan; $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 19 B. Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation; C. Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the program region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors); D. Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations; or E. Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people. Projects that exceed these thresholds are considered to have a significant adverse impact on air quality. The certified Program EIR determined that the General Plan Update would not conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan and would not result in the creation of objectionable odors which would affect a substantial number of people. This determination is still applicable, and will not be analyzed further in this Supplemental EIR. To determine if maximum daily criteria pollutant emissions from construction and operation of the proposed project are significant, the SCAQMD significance thresholds are used. These thresholds are identified in Table 4.1-7 (SCAQMD Maximum Daily Emissions Thresholds (lbs/day)). Table 4.1-7 SCAQMD Maximum Daily Emissions Thresholds (lbs/day) Pollutant Construction Operation NOX 100 55 VOC/ROG 75 55 PM10 150 150 PM2.5 55 55 SOX 150 150 CO 550 550 Lead 3 3 Source: SCAQMD 2012 SCAQMD has also established thresholds for emissions of toxic air contaminants. Toxic air emissions from a project are considered potentially significant if maximum incremental cancer risk is greater than 10 persons in 1,000,000 (1E-05). Cancer risk is determined by calculating the annual average toxic concentration (μg/m3) and multiplying it by the unit risk factor (URF) for the toxic and the lifetime exposure adjustment (LEA) of the receptor. URF represents the estimated probability that a person will contract cancer as a result of inhalation of a toxic of 1 μg/m3 continuously over 70 years. Because some receptors are exposed to toxics for less than 70 years (i.e. off-site workers), the LEA adjusts the receptors $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-20 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH exposure to represent actual exposure time. The LEA for residential uses and other sensitive receptors is 1, representing an assumed exposure of 70 continuous years. Acute and chronic non-cancer risks are considered significant if the project toxic air contaminant emissions result in a hazard index greater than or equal to 1. The hazard index is determined by calculating the average annual toxic concentration (μg/m3) divided by the reference exposure level (REL) for a particular toxic. The REL is the concentration at which no adverse health impacts are anticipated and is established by OEHHA. Greenhouse Gas Emissions The proposed project could result in potentially significant impacts related to greenhouse gas emissions and global climate change if it would: A. Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment. B. Conflict with an applicable plan, policy, or regulation adopted for the purposes of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases. As a policy document, the proposed General Plan update and revised Zoning Ordinance will not directly result in construction or operation of any development that contributes to climate change and associated impacts. However, implementation of the General Plan will guide future development that will generate greenhouse gases and will contribute to climate change. Future development projects will be required to determine if individually they exceed recognized or adopted thresholds that comply with adopted greenhouse gas reduction plans. A numerical threshold for determining the significance of greenhouse gas emissions in the South Coast Air Basin (Basin) has not been established by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). As an interim threshold based on guidance provided in the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA) CEQA and Climate Change handbook, the City has opted to use a non- zero threshold approach based on Approach 2 of the handbook. Threshold 2.5 (Unit-Based Thresholds Based on Market Capture) establishes a numerical threshold based on capture of approximately 90 percent of emissions from future development. The latest threshold developed by SCAQMD using this method is 10,000 metric tons carbon dioxide equivalent (MTCO2E) per year for industrial projects, 3,500 MTCO2E for residential projects, 1,400 MTCO2E for commercial projects, and 3,000 MTCO2E for mixed use projects. This threshold is based on the review of 711 CEQA projects. These thresholds will be utilized for implementing development in the future in determining if emissions of greenhouse gases will be significant, until an officially adopted threshold is established and accepted by the City. $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 21 Environmental Impact Impacts 4.1.A through 4.1.C Criteria Pollutants With the exception of a limited number of vacant lots, Vernon is completely built out. New development will result from rebuilding activity and the replacement of older, less efficient buildings with more functional ones. The updated General Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance provide for Vernon to remain a primarily industrial city with limited housing. All new businesses established in the City over the lifetime of the General Plan update are anticipated to be similar to those which exist today. The proposed expanded Commercial Overlay District along Santa Fe Avenue, Pacific Boulevard, Atlantic Boulevard, and Slauson Avenue, and portions of Soto Street will allow for limited commercial uses. The proposed project will also establish and apply a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay. However, as indicated in the certified General Plan EIR, long-term implementation of the updated General Plan and revised Zoning Ordinance is anticipated to result in a decrease in overall building square footage citywide, by approximately 1.2 million square feet, as older buildings are replaced by structures that meet current City standards for off-street parking and loading and other development standards. Air quality impacts for General Plan build out year 2030 were analyzed in the certified Program EIR using CARB’s land use and air pollution emissions model (URBEMIS 2007). Compared to 2007 (baseline) conditions, the previous General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update resulted in a reduction of all pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions. Since adoption of the certified Program EIR in 2007, the City of Vernon has adopted a Housing Element that identifies opportunities for housing in the City. Existing 2012 land use conditions will serve as the baseline, and year 2035 build out conditions based on the updated General Plan Land Use Plan, which includes the adopted Housing Element, will serve as the proposed project conditions. The analysis utilizes guidance provided in the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) 1993 California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Air Quality handbook as amended and supplemented. The California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod) v 2013.2.2 was used to forecast emissions levels for baseline and project operational activity. Underlying land use designations for the City is Industrial. The implementation of zoning overlays will not affect this underlying land use designation. Therefore, CalEEMod was used to model air quality and greenhouse gas emissions for general light industrial use for the entire city minus rail and utility right-of-ways, streets, and vacant parcels during baseline conditions. Project build out conditions includes vacant parcels as future development is likely to occur. Emissions Sources The zoning overlay areas are intended to allow for more flexible, non-industrial land uses. As the built-out city redevelops, older industrial uses within each Overlay may be replaced by other uses. Default CalEEMod trip and emissions rates for uses $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-22 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH anticipated within each Overlay Zone are discussed below. The General Light Industry land use category is estimated to generate approximately 6.97 daily trips per 1,000 square feet and use 4.9 kWhr/square foot/year of Title-24 electricity energy intensity, 3.23 kWhr/square foot/year of nontitle 24 Electricity energy intensity, 7.04 kWhr/square foot/year lighting energy intensity, 1.21 KBTU/square foot/year Title-24 Gas Energy Intensity, and 0.49 KBTU/square foot/year of nontitle-24 Natural Gas Energy Intensity. Consumer products include cleaning supplies and aerosol products that emit volatile organic compounds (VOC). Use of consumer products is common in all settings. Commercial Overlay Zones The C-1 Overlay Zone identifies areas for the development of mercantile facilities including commercial, service, and business operations that are necessary to support industrial uses and serve existing on-site businesses and surrounding uses by improving access to a greater range of facilities and services. The C-2 Overlay Zone identifies areas for uses that may ordinarily conflict with the industrial character of the City. Commercial retail facilities within the C-2 Overlay Zone can provide for higher levels of intensity than those permitted in the C-1 Overlay Zone. Potential commercial land uses fall under CalEEMod’s retail strip mall designation. Compared to the CalEEMod General Light Industry land use designation, retail strip malls have a higher trip rate of 44.32 daily trips per 1,000 square feet. Although the trip rate is higher, general light industrial uses will have a higher rate of heavy- duty and medium-duty trips. Retail strip malls also have a higher electricity and natural gas usage rate per square foot. According to CalEEMod, each square foot of retail strip mall space is estimated to use 4.9 KWhr/year of Title-24 electricity energy intensity, 3.23 KWhr/year of nontitle-24 electricity energy intensity, 7.04 KWhr/year of lighting energy intensity, 1.21 KBTU/year Title-24 natural gas energy intensity, and 0.49 KWhr/year nontitle-24 natural gas energy intensity. Housing Overlay Zone The Housing Overlay Zone will allow for limited residential development in Vernon. It is assumed that housing will be multi-family. The CalEEMod default trip rate for mid-rise apartments is 6.59 daily trips per dwelling unit, less than per 1,000 square foot of light industrial. Each dwelling unit is also estimated to use approximately 267.12 KWhr/year of Title-24 electricity energy intensity, 2,553.86 KWhr/year of nontitle-24 electricity energy intensity, 741.44 KWhr/year of lighting energy intensity, 5,523.82 KBTU/year of Title-24 natural gas energy intensity, and 1,662 KWhr/year of nontitle-24 natural gas energy intensity. The size of each dwelling unit varies and is not comparable to an industrial use due to the difference in equipment, appliances used. Emergency Shelter Overlay Zone The Emergency Shelter Overlay Zone is intended to allow the development of a shelter to the homeless. It is anticipated that the only vehicle trips to the facility will be limited to the on-site manager, employees, and volunteers. Energy consumption will be similar to that of multi-family residential units and is not comparable to industrial use. $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 23 Rendering and Slaughtering Overlay Zones The Rendering and Slaughtering Overlay Zones are intended to support the processing of animal products into useful, value-added materials. The rendering and slaughtering use falls under the CalEEMod manufacturing land use category and will generate approximately 3.82 daily trips per 1,000 square feet, less than that of light industrial use. Each square foot of manufacturing use is estimated to use the same amount of electricity and natural gas as general light industry. Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone Truck and freight uses fall under the CalEEMod unrefrigerated warehouse (no rail) category. Warehouse land uses are anticipated to generate approximately 2.59 daily trips per 1,000 square feet, less than light industrial use. Each square foot of warehouse use is estimated to use less electricity and natural gas as light industrial use, using 0.79 KWhr/year of Title-24 electricity energy intensity, 1.34 KWhr/year of nontitle-24 electricity energy intensity, 2.23 KWhr/year of lighting energy intensity, 0.88 KBTU/year of Title-24 natural gas energy intensity, and 0.03 KBTU/year of nontitle-24 natural gas energy intensity. The underlying land use designations of the city remain industrial. The Overlay Zones merely provide opportunities for more flexible uses as the city evolves, and does not change the underlying land use. No specific uses are being authorized at this time. The type and scale of each proposed development project will have an effect on air quality impacts and will be determined on a project by project basis. AQMP Consistency and Pollutant Emissions A significant impact could occur if the proposed project conflicts with or obstructs the implementation of the current SCAQMD AQMP. Conflicts and obstructions that hinder implementation of the AQMP can delay efforts to meet attainment deadlines for criteria pollutants and maintaining existing compliance with applicable air quality standards. As a policy document, no development is authorized or will directly occur from the adoption of the General Plan update. However, development will occur within the planning area as guided by the policies of the General Plan. Short-term criteria pollutant emissions will occur during site preparation, grading, building construction, paving, and painting/coating activities. Emissions will occur from use of construction equipment, worker, vendor, and hauling trips, and disturbance of on-site soils (fugitive dust). Long-term criteria air pollutant emissions will result from the operation of potential development. Long-term emissions are categorized as area source emissions, energy demand emissions, and operational emissions. Operational emissions will result from automobile, truck, and other vehicle sources associated with daily trips to and from future development. As indicated in the Initial Study for the certified General Plan EIR, the General Plan Resources Element includes the following policies that ensure compliance with the AQMP. The Resources Element ensures that land use decisions implement and comply with federal, state, and local regulations pertaining to air quality. The $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-24 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH policies of the Resources Element remain applicable and continued implementation would provide for continued compliance with SCAQMD regulations. The underlying land use designations of the city remain industrial, as was analyzed in the previous General Plan EIR. The proposed Overlay Zones merely provide opportunities for more flexible uses as the city evolves, and does not change the underlying land use or intent of the General Plan to support primarily industrial uses in the city. Therefore, compliance with SCAQMD regulations is consistent with the findings of the certified General Plan EIR and no additional impacts will result. GOAL R-2 Contribute to the continued gradual improvement of air quality in the South Coast Air Basin. POLICY R-2.1: Coordinate and cooperate with the South Coast Air Quality Management District and Southern California Association of Governments in efforts to implement the regional Air Quality Management Plan. POLICY R-2.2: Encourage and facilitate the use of public transportation to reduce emissions associated with automobile use. POLICY R-2.3: Continue to expand the number of City-owned alternative fuels vehicles, hybrid vehicles, and other energy-efficient vehicles as they may be available. POLICY R-2.4: Encourage the use of clean, efficient, state-of-the-art natural gas power plants. Using CalEEMod, long-term emissions from the planning area were modeled. Table 4.1-8 (Existing 2012 Total Daily Emissions (lbs/day)) summarizes the current operational daily emissions based on all general light industrial use in the city excluding approximately vacant parcels. Table 4.1-9 (2035 General Plan Buildout Total Daily Emissions (lbs/day)) summarizes the total operational daily emissions for General Plan Buildout year 2035 reflecting complete industrial use include the currently vacant parcels. These represent a worst-case scenario based on complete industrial buildout based on General Plan land use policy. Table 4.1-10 (Net Daily Emissions (lbs/day)) summarizes the change in daily emissions from the existing 2012 baseline year to buildout year 2035. $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 25 Table 4.1-8 Existing 2012 Total Daily Emissions (lbs/day) Source ROG NOX CO SO2 PM10 PM2.5 6XPPHU Area 2,977.60 0.12 12.15 0.0009 0.04 0.04 Energy 63.26 575.07 483.06 3.45 43.71 43.71 Mobile 3,992.54 13,111.85 53,171.59 109.64 212.93 195.52 Summer Total 7,033.40 13,687.04 53,667.80 113.09 256.68 239.27 :LQWHU Area 2,977.60 0.12 12.15 0.00087 0.04 0.04 Energy 63.26 575.07 483.06 3.45 43.71 43.71 Mobile 4,116.64 13,828.83 51,193.08 104.07 213.95 196.46 Winter Total 7,157.50 14,404.03 51,688.29 107.52 257.70 240.21 Table 4.1-9 2035 General Plan Buildout Total Daily Emissions (lbs/day) Source ROG NOX CO SO2 PM10 PM2.5 6XPPHU Area 3,162.03 0.11 12.27 0.00092 0.04 0.04 Energy 67.18 610.73 513.01 3.66 46.42 46.42 Mobile 1,857.18 5,226.49 23,937.84 122.42 159.88 147.51 Summer Total 5,086.38 5,837.32 24,463.12 126.08 206.34 193.97 :LQWHU Area 3,162.03 0.11 12.27 0.00092 0.04 0.04 Energy 67.18 610.73 513.01 3.66 46.42 46.42 Mobile 1,897.96 5,470.36 23,399.86 116.32 160.25 147.86 Winter Total 5,127.16 6,081.19 23,925.14 119.99 206.71 194.32 $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-26 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH Table 4.1-10 Net Daily Emissions (lbs/day) Source ROG NOX CO SO2 PM10 PM2.5 6XPPHU Existing 7,033.40 13,687.04 53,667.80 113.09 256.68 239.27 Proposed 5,086.38 5,837.32 24,463.12 126.08 206.34 193.97 Net Emissions -1,947.02 -7,849.72 -29,204.68 +12.99 -50.34 -45.30 Percent Change -27.68 -57.35 -54.42 +11.49 -19.61 -18.93 :LQWHU Existing 7,157.50 14,404.03 51,688.29 107.52 257.70 240.21 Proposed 5,127.16 6,081.19 23,925.14 119.99 206.71 194.32 Net Emissions -2,030.34 -8,322.84 -27,763.15 +12.47 -50.99 -45.89 Percent Change -28.37 -57.78 -53.71 +11.60 -19.79 -19.10 Based on modeling data, total emissions from total General Plan buildout would on average reduce reactive organic gases (volatile organic compounds) (ROG/VOC) by 27.68 percent in the summer and 28.37 percent in the winter, oxides of nitrogen (NOX) by 57.35 percent in the summer and 57.78 percent in the winter, carbon monoxide (CO) by 54.42 percent in the summer and 53.71 percent in the winter, coarse particulate matter (PM10) by 19.61 percent in the summer and 19.79 percent in the winter, and fine particulate matter (PM2.5) daily by 18.93 percent in the summer and 19.10 percent in the winter. Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) is projected to increase by 11.49 percent in the summer and 11.60 percent in the winter; however these increases are nominal and will not exceed the emission threshold. The reduction in total emissions is consistent with the findings of the certified General Plan EIR and impacts will remain less than significant. Impact 4.1.D Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations The proposed General Plan update and revised Zoning Ordinance would not authorize any specific construction; however, future development projects constructed pursuant to General Plan land use policies could potentially expose sensitive receptors to temporary, localized pollutant concentrations in excess of air quality standards, even if the broader region is in attainment. Examples include emissions of fugitive dust and vehicle and machinery exhaust during large-scale grading activities and roadway construction. Under limited circumstances, large- scale construction activities could result in emissions of fugitive dust, nitrogen oxides, and other criteria pollutants that could exceed SCAQMD daily thresholds of significance and thereby could result in a significant impact. Emissions of fugitive dust near sensitive receptors are a primary concern because, unlike gaseous pollutants that quickly rise and affect the upper atmosphere, particulate matter tends to remain close to the ground. $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 27 Future construction activities will be subject to routine control measures as required by SCAQMD (Rules 402, 403, 1108, and 1113). It should be noted that SCAQMD guidance indicates that analysis of localized criteria pollutant impacts is voluntary; therefore, future construction projects will be assessed for localized criteria pollutant impacts on a case-by-case basis under the purview of the City. Impacts related to local criteria pollutant emissions will not be significant with implementation of existing regulations and the General Plan policies. According to the Air Quality and Land Use Handbook, ARB recommends that sensitive land uses not be located within 500 feet of highways or major arterials having average annual daily traffic (AADT) that exceeds 100,000 vehicles. This is due to the concentration of pollutants that accumulate in this proximity to freeways and other major arterials. No non-freeway roadways within the planning area either currently or over the long term are projected to have an AADT that exceeds 100,000 vehicles. Interstate 10 and Interstate 215 currently and will likely continue to both have an AADT that exceeds 100,000. Based on ARB guidelines, a significant impact could occur if the General Plan would permit new residential or other sensitive uses within 500 feet of I-710, I-5, or US-101. Today, residential land uses do not exist within 500 feet of I-710, I-5, or US-101. Therefore; significant impacts to residents from heavy traffic roadway criteria pollutants would not occur. Toxic Air Contaminants Some industrial land uses have the potential to generate substantial toxic air contaminant (TAC) concentrations that could adversely affect sensitive receptors. Such emissions could be produced by a variety of interior processes and outdoor activities that generate emissions of TACs. TACs are air pollutants that may cause or contribute to an increase in deaths or serious illnesses or that may pose a present or potential hazard to human health. Unlike criteria pollutants, there are no levels of exposure to TACs that do not produce adverse health effects. The Tanner Bill requires implementation of risk reduction measures for toxic contaminant releases with cancer risks that are equal to or greater than 25 per million and the SCAQMD has established a TAC emissions cancer risk threshold of equal to or greater than ten per million. For example, common facilities within the District that have a cancer risk of approximately ten per million include forges, refineries, fuel distribution and storage facilities, and heavy plating facilities. Common facilities with a cancer risk of approximately 25 per million or more include aircraft manufacturing, large plating and machining facilities, and chemical manufacturing. The proposed General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update includes the expansion of commercial and trucking uses and the addition of housing and emergency shelter overlays. Future uses that may be developed within the designated commercial and trucking areas could result in emissions of a variety of toxic air contaminants. $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-28 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH ARB research has documented increased potential health risks for sensitive receptors as the distance to sources of hazardous emissions is reduced. Based on these findings, they have developed guidelines to assist local government agencies in siting new land uses that could be occupied by “sensitive individuals” at a safe distance from such sources. Sensitive individuals refer to those segments of the population most susceptible to poor air quality (i.e., children, the elderly, and those with pre-existing serious health problems affected by air quality). Land uses where sensitive individuals are most likely to spend time include schools and schoolyards, parks and playgrounds, daycare centers, nursing homes, hospitals and residential communities (also known as sensitive sites or sensitive land uses). Since existing and planned industrial land uses that exist make up a majority of the planning area, the City may be affected by any potential substantial industrial emission source that currently exists or may be developed in the future regardless of wind direction. Actual levels of risk can only be determined through site-specific analysis and specialized air pollutant modeling, based on an actual relationship between an industrial emission source and a specific residential site. Such assessments might determine that there are less than significant health risks, or that there could be some significant level of exposure to pollutants that need to be mitigated through siting, site design, or operational restrictions. With implementation of existing regulations that regulate and monitor toxic emitters, potential health impacts to sensitive receptors due to exposure to toxic air contaminants will be less than significant. Carbon Monoxide Hotspots A carbon monoxide (CO) hotspot is an area of localized CO pollution that is caused by severe vehicle congestion on major roadways, typically near intersections. CO hotspots have the potential to violate state and federal CO standards at intersections, even if the broader Basin is in attainment for federal and state levels. In general, the California Department of Transportation Project-Level Carbon Monoxide Protocol (CO Protocol) recommend analysis of CO hotspots when a project increases the number of vehicles operating in cold start mode by more than two percent, increases traffic volumes by more than five percent, or worsens average traffic speeds. In addition, CO hotspots are typically associated with intersections with lower ratings of Level of Services (LOS), such as LOS E or F, which indicate high congestion and high amounts of idling vehicles that have the potential to generate a CO hotspot. The following intersections operate at LOS E or F under current General Plan 2030 Conditions without improvements which was analyzed in the certified Program EIR: x Alameda Street at Vernon Avenue – West (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Alameda Street at Vernon Avenue – East (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Alameda Street at 55th Street – West (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Alameda Street at 55th Street – East (LOS F in evening peak hour) $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 29 x Santa Fe Avenue at 25th/26th Street (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) x Santa Fe Avenue at 38th Street (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Santa Fe Avenue at Vernon Avenue (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Santa Fe Avenue at Vernon Avenue/Pacific Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Soto Street at 26th Street (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Soto Street at Bandini Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Soto Street at Vernon Avenue (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) x Soto Street at Leonis Boulevard (LOS E in morning peak hour) x Soto Street at Fruitland Avenue (LOS E in evening peak hour) x Boyle Avenue at Slauson Avenue (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Downey Road at Washington Boulevard (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) x Downey Road at Bandini Boulevard (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hour) x Downey Road at Slauson Avenue (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Atlantic Boulevard at Bandini Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Atlantic Boulevard at District Boulevard (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) The following intersections are anticipated to operate at LOS E or F in either or both of the morning or evening peak hours with the proposed General Plan update and revised Zoning Ordinance without improvements. x Alameda Street at Vernon Avenue – West (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Alameda Street at Vernon Avenue – East (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Alameda Street at 55th Street – West (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Alameda Street at 55th Street – East (LOS F in evening peak hour) x Santa Fe Avenue at 25th/26th Street (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) x Santa Fe Avenue at 38th Street (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Santa Fe Avenue at Vernon Avenue (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Santa Fe Avenue at Vernon Avenue/Pacific Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Soto Street at 26th Street (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Soto Street at Bandini Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Soto Street at Vernon Avenue (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) x Soto Street at Leonis Boulevard (LOS E in morning peak hour) x Soto Street at Fruitland Avenue (LOS E in evening peak hour) $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-30 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH x Boyle Avenue at Slauson Avenue (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Downey Road at Washington Boulevard (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) x Downey Road at Bandini Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Downey Road at Slauson Avenue (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Atlantic Boulevard at Bandini Boulevard (LOS F in morning and evening peak hours) x Atlantic Boulevard at District Boulevard (LOS E in morning and LOS F in evening peak hours) All intersections determined to operate at LOS E or F in the certified Program EIR still operate at the same LOS except for one. Downey Road at Bandini Boulevard was projected to operate at LOS E in the morning peak hour in the certified Program EIR. With the proposed General Plan update and the revised Zoning Ordinance, Downey Road at Bandini Boulevard is projected to operate at LOS F in the morning peak hour. As discussed in the traffic analysis prepared by Kunzman Associates, the above intersections are not significantly impacted by the proposed General Plan update and revised Zoning Ordinance. Future development projects will be screened and analyzed pursuant to the CO Protocol to determine if a CO hotspot may occur at congested intersections. Mitigation may be required, if necessary, to alleviate traffic congestion and minimize the hotspot potential. Other mitigation could include operational restrictions on future development. Greenhouse Gases Greenhouse gas emissions were analyzed in the Program EIR and found to reduce with implementation of the 2030 General Plan. As noted in the air quality analysis above, the Program EIR analyzed a baseline year of 2007 and proposed General Plan build out year 2030. The analysis reflects the change in GHG emissions from existing 2012 baseline conditions and the proposed 2035 General Plan buildout. The analysis utilizes guidance provided in the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) 1993 California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Air Quality handbook as amended and supplemented. The California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod) v 2013.2.2 was used to forecast emissions levels for baseline and project operational activity. CalEEMod default rates for general light industrial use were used to model air quality and greenhouse gas emissions with the exception of vehicle fleet mix. The recommended fleet mix (78.6 percent passenger cars, 8 percent light-duty trucks, 3.9 percent medium heavy-duty trucks, and 9.5 percent heavy heavy-duty trucks) in the Fontana Truck Trip Study was used.xi Development that occurs as a result of the implementation of the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update will include activities that emit greenhouse gas emissions over the short and long term. While one project could not be said to $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 31 cause global climate change, individual projects contribute cumulatively to greenhouse gas emissions that result in climate change. Individual projects will have prepared a greenhouse gas emissions inventory, to determine if individual projects exceed applicable screening or impact thresholds and would thus potentially contribute substantially to climate change and associated impacts. A summary of short- and long-term emissions and the analysis for each are included below. Short-Term Emissions Future development projects will result in short-term greenhouse gas emissions from construction. Greenhouse gas emissions will be released by equipment used for demolition, grading, paving, and other building construction activities. GHG emissions will also result from worker and vendor trips to and from project sites and from demolition and soil hauling trips. Construction activities are short-term and cease to emit greenhouse gases upon completion, unlike operational emissions that are continuous year after year until operation of the use ceases. Because of this difference, SCAQMD recommends in its draft threshold to amortize construction emissions over a 30-year operational lifetime. This normalizes construction emissions so that they can be grouped with operational emissions in order to generate a precise project GHG inventory. Typically, construction-related GHG emissions contribute unsubstantially (less than one percent) to a project’s annual greenhouse gas emissions inventory and mitigation is not effective in reducing a project’s overall contribution to climate change. Implementation of AB32 and SB375 through California Air Resources Board’s (ARB) Scoping Plan and SCAG’s RTP/SCS are designed to achieve the required reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Analysis of the General Plan’s non-interference and support of these plans is presented below. With implementation of existing policies and regulations, short-term climate change impacts due to future construction activities will not be significant. Long-Term Emissions Future development projects will result in continuous GHG emissions from mobile, area, and operational sources. Mobile sources, including vehicle trips to and from development projects, will result primarily in emissions of CO2, with minor emissions of CH4 and N2O. The most significant GHG emission from natural gas usage will be methane. Electricity usage by future development and indirect usage of electricity for water and wastewater conveyance will result primarily in emissions of carbon dioxide. Disposal of solid waste will result in emissions of methane from the decomposition of waste at landfills coupled with CO2 emission from the handling and transport of solid waste. These sources combine to define the long- term greenhouse gas inventory for typical development projects. Table 4.1-11 (Existing 2012 Land Use Baseline Greenhouse Gas Emissions) summarizes current operational annual greenhouse gas emissions for an entirely light industrial city except the vacant parcels. Table 4.1-12 (2035 General Plan Buildout Total Greenhouse Gas Emissions) summarizes the anticipated total $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-32 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH operational annual GHG emissions based on light industrial buildout of the City including the vacant parcels. This represents a worst-case complete build-out pursuant to the General Plan based on the proposed land use plan. Table 4.1-13 (Net Greenhouse Gas Emissions) summarizes net annual greenhouse gas emissions. As shown in Table 4.1-13, total greenhouse gas emissions will decrease with implementation of the proposed project.

Many of the strategies identified in the Scoping Plan are not applicable at the General Plan or project-level, such as long-term technological improvements to reduce emissions from vehicles. Some measures are applicable and supported by the project. Finally, while some measures are not $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 33 directly applicable, the project would not conflict with their implementation. Reduction measures are grouped into 18 action categories, as follows: 1. California Cap-and-Trade Program Linked to Western Climate Initiative Partner Jurisdictions. Implement a broad-based California cap-and-trade program to provide a firm limit on emissions. Link the California cap–and- trade program with other Western Climate Initiative Partner programs to create a regional market system to achieve greater environmental and economic benefits for California. Ensure California’s program meets all applicable AB 32 requirements for market-based mechanisms. These programs involve capping emissions from electricity generation, industrial facilities, and broad scoped fuels. The City of Vernon has 150 qualifying heavy industrial facilitiesthat are be subject to these state requirements, and the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance Update would not interfere with their implementation. 2. California Light-Duty Vehicle Greenhouse Gas Standards. Implement adopted Pavley standards and planned second phase of the program. Align zero-emission vehicle, alternative and renewable fuel and vehicle technology programs with long-term climate change goals. This is not applicable as this is a statewide measure establishing vehicle emissions standards. 3. Energy Efficiency. Maximize energy efficiency building and appliance standards, and pursue additional efficiency efforts including new technologies, and new policy and implementation mechanisms. Pursue comparable investment in energy efficiency from all retail providers of electricity in California (including both investor-owned and publicly owned utilities). The General Plan promotes energy efficient building design, as well as implementation of existing building and other codes regulating minimum energy, and water efficiency consistent with 2011 CALGREEN requirements and would thus be consistent and not interfere with this program. 4. Renewables Portfolio Standards. Achieve 33 percent renewable energy mix statewide by 2020. This establishes the minimum statewide renewable energy mix and is not applicable at a City level or below for implementation. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not interfere with the implementation of this program. 5. Low Carbon Fuel Standard. Develop and adopt the Low Carbon Fuel Standard. This is not applicable to a City as this establishes reduced carbon intensity of transportation fuels. 6. Regional Transportation-Related Greenhouse Gas Targets. Develop regional greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets for passenger vehicles. As is detailed following, the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would potentially conflict with and would not support the implementation of SCAG’s RTP/SCS to achieve the required GHG reduction goals by 2020 and 2035 based on an inconsistency with growth projections. $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-34 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update includes policies to reduce vehicle miles traveled by encouraging alternative modes of transportation. 7. Vehicle Efficiency Measures. Implement light-duty vehicle efficiency measures. This is not applicable to a City as this identifies measures such as minimum tire-fuel efficiency, lower friction oil, and reduction in air conditioning use. 8. Goods Movement. Implement adopted regulations for the use of shore power for ships at berth. Improve efficiency in goods movement activities. Identifies measures to improve goods movement efficiencies such as advanced combustion strategies, friction reduction, waste heat recovery, and electrification of accessories. While the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update may result in facilities such as distribution warehouses that are associated with goods movement, these measures are yet to be implemented and will be voluntary. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not interfere with their eventual implementation. 9. Million Solar Roofs Program. Install 3,000 megawatts of solar-electric capacity under California’s existing solar programs. Sets goal for use of solar systems throughout the state. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not interfere with but instead would directly support installation of alternative energy sources through its policies and programs. 10. Medium- and Heavy-Duty Vehicles. Adopt medium-duty (MD) and heavy- duty (HD) vehicle efficiencies. Aerodynamic efficiency measures for HD trucks pulling trailers 53-feet or longer that include improvements in trailer aerodynamics and use of rolling resistance tires were adopted in 2008 and went into effect in 2010. Future, yet to be determined improvements, includes hybridization of MD and HD trucks. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update may result in development of industrial uses that utilize large MD and HD truck fleets. These potential future developments would be required to have their fleet equipment be consistent with the current applicable efficiency measures at the time of operation. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not interfere with implementation of this program. 11. Industrial Emissions. Require assessment of large industrial sources to determine whether individual sources within a facility can cost-effectively reduce greenhouse gas emissions and provide other pollution reduction co- benefits. Reduce greenhouse gas emissions from fugitive emissions from oil and gas extraction and gas transmission. Adopt and implement regulations to control fugitive methane emissions and reduce flaring at refineries. These measures are applicable to large industrial facilities (> 500,000 MTCO2E/YR) and other intensive uses such as refineries. If a qualifying heavy industrial facility would be located in the City, it would be subject to these state $LU4XDOLW\ 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW 35 requirements; the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not interfere with their implementation. 12. High Speed Rail. Support implementation of a high speed rail system. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not interfere with implementation of this program. 13. Green Building Strategy. Expand the use of green building practices to reduce the carbon footprint of California’s new and existing inventory of buildings. The General Plan promotes energy efficient building design as well as implementation of existing building and other codes regulating minimum energy, and water efficiency consistent with 2011 CALGREEN requirements and would thus be consistent and not interfere with this program. 14. High Global Warming Potential Gases. Adopt measures to reduce high global warming potential gases. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not directly result in generation of high global warming potential gases, and would not interfere with implementation of any future changes in air conditioning, fire protection suppressant, and other emission requirements. 15. Recycling and Waste. Reduce methane emissions at landfills. Increase waste diversion, composting and other beneficial uses of organic materials, and mandate commercial recycling to move toward zero-waste. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update is consistent since implementing development will be required to recycle a minimum of 50 percent from construction activities and warehouse operations per state requirements. 16. Sustainable Forests. Preserve forest sequestration and encourage the use of forest biomass for sustainable energy generation. The 2020 target for carbon sequestration is 5 million MTCO2E/YR. This is not applicable as the City does not contain any areas defined as forest. 17. Water. Continue efficiency programs and use cleaner energy sources to move and treat water. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update is consistent since implementing development will include use of low-flow fixtures and water efficient landscaping per state requirements. 18. Agriculture. In the near-term, encourage investment in manure digesters and at the five-year Scoping Plan update determine if the program should be made mandatory by 2020. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update does not contain any agricultural land use designations, and any policies related to agriculture land uses would not be applicable. As summarized above, the proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update would not conflict with any of the other provisions of the Scoping Plan. The proposed General Plan and zoning ordinance update in fact supports four of the $LU4XDOLW\ 4.1-36 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH action categories through energy efficiency, green building, and water conservation through these proposed and current policies: GOAL R-1 Conserve and protect the region’s water and energy resources. POLICY R-1.1: Encourage water conservation and the use of recycled water in new developments and by all industries. POLICY R-1.2: Support the use of energy-saving designs and equipment in all new development and reconstruction projects. Consistency with Applicable Plans, Policies, or Regulations The underlying land use designations of the city will remain industrial as analyzed in the certified General Plan EIR. The proposed Overlay Zones merely provide opportunities for more flexible uses as the city evolves, and does not change the underlying land use or intent of the General Plan. As the underlying land use designation remains industrial and has not changed, the proposed project will remain consistent with regional plans, including efforts to reduce regional and statewide greenhouse gas emissions considering current land use plans are considered during preparation of regional plans such as the RTP/SCS. In addition, as discussed above, total greenhouse gas emissions would decrease with implementation of the proposed project. Therefore, compliance with SCAQMD regulations is consistent with the findings of the certified General Plan EIR and no additional impacts will result. Mitigation Measures Impact will be less than significant at the programmatic level and no mitigation is required.

It is a relative scale which compares the gas being measured to carbon dioxide (whose GWP is by definition 1). GWP is based on a number of factors, including the heat-absorbing ability of each gas and the decay rate of each gas relative to that of carbon dioxide. The higher the GWP, the more impact the gas has on global warming. The GWP measures in this report are based on a 100- year time horizon iv California Air Resources Board.

whether future development permitted due to changes to the General Plan and Zoning Code would increase those impacts analyzed in the certified General Plan EIR. The Initial Study (Appendix A) indicated that there are potential impacts related to permanent and temporary noise and vibration. Environmental Setting Noise within the Vernon planning area is comprised of cumulative noise generated by transportation activities and stationary sources. Transportation noise refers to noise from automobile use, trucking, and rail operations. Non-transportation noise typically refers to noise from stationary sources such as industrial machinery, air conditioning systems, compressors, and outdoor industrial activities. Regardless of the type of noise, noise levels are highest near their source and decrease with distance. Noise Metrics and Standards Noise is most often defined as unwanted, excessive, or irksome sound. Sound - and noise – consists of energy waves that people receive and interpret. There are three properties of noise: the amplitude and amplitude variation of the acoustical wave (loudness), the frequency (pitch), and the duration of the noise. Despite the ability to measure sound, human perceptibility is subjective, and the physical response to sound complicates the analysis of its impact on people. People judge the relative magnitude of sound sensation in subjective terms such as “noisiness” or “loudness.” Sound pressure magnitude is measured and quantified using a logarithmic ratio of pressures, the scale of which gives the level of sound in decibels (dB). In order to factor in the subjectivity of sound to the human ear and the variation of sensitivity to different frequencies of sound, the A-weighted sound pressure level, or dB(A), is the scale of measurement that is most useful in community noise measurement. This sound level is measured in decibels to provide a scale with the range and characteristics most consistent with that of peoples' sensitivity to sounds. The A-weighted sound level of traffic and other long-term noise-producing activities within and around a community varies considerably with time. Measurements of this varying noise level are accomplished by recording values of the A-weighted level during representative periods within a specified portion of the day. Because a given level of noise may be more or less tolerable depending on the duration of exposure, other measures of noise exposure have been developed. Federal and state agencies have established noise and land use compatibility guidelines that use averaging approaches to noise measurement. The State Department of Aeronautics and the California Commission on Housing and Community Development have adopted the community noise equivalent level (CNEL). To account for increased human sensitivity at night, this measure weights the average noise level at night by adding five dB to the measurement during the 1RLVH 4.3-2 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH 7:00 P.M. to 10:00 P.M. time period and an additional ten dB on noise measured during the 10:00 P.M. to 7:00 A.M. time period. The City of Vernon utilizes the CNEL measurement scale for its community noise/land use compatibility standards. In recognition of the industrial nature of the community, the current General Plan establishes 75 CNEL as the acceptable exterior ambient noise level for land use planning purposes. The current Zoning Ordinance establishes allowable exterior noise for all lots in the City of 75 dBA, except for lots located within one tenth (1/10) of a mile on any residence or school located in Vernon or abutting communities, which lots are limited to 65 dBA between 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M. and 60 dBA between 10:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M.. Existing Noise Conditions Generalized ambient 24-hour community noise conditions frequently are illustrated using noise contour maps. Similar to a topographic map, a noise contour map shows variations in conditions within a specific geographic area. In Vernon, the most significant noise-producing activity involves the transportation systems. This noise source consists of several elements: arterial roadways, Interstate 710, and train operations on rail lines and at rail yards. Hence, the noise contours show higher levels along these transportation routes and near the rail yards. Exhibit 4.3- 1 (2007 Noise Contours) depicts the noise contours within the planning area during preparation of the certified EIR. No part of Vernon is located within an area covered by an airport land use plan. The nearest airport is in the city of Compton, approximately eight miles to the south. The certified EIR determined that the adoption and implementation of the General Plan update would not result in airport noise impacts on people residing or working within the Planning Area. Adoption and implementation of the focused General Plan and zoning code update would be consistent with the determination made in the certified EIR. The City is also subject to noise resulting from occasional aircraft overflights from regional airports, even though Vernon is outside of any specific airport noise contour. To identify baseline community noise conditions during preparation of the certified EIR, a total of three 24-hour noise measurements and eight limited noise measurements were obtained within the planning area. The locations are shown in Exhibit 4.3-2 (Noise Measurement Locations), and the results of these measurements are summarized in Table 4.3-1 (Noise Measurement Summary). Traffic Noise The eight limited-period noise measurements revealed that ambient noise was most often due to traffic on the surface streets in Vernon. Traffic in Vernon consists of local traffic serving local businesses, as well as a substantial amount of through traffic (that is, no trip ends in Vernon) along arterials such as Bandini Boulevard, Soto Avenue, Santa Fe Avenue, and Slauson Avenue. The results from these measurements indicated an Leq (average noise level during the measurement period) of between 66 dB(A) and 75 dB(A). 1RLVH 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW - Table 4.3-1 Noise Measurement Summary No. Location Time Measured Noise Levels, dB(A) Leq Lmax CNEL 1 W.

Lmax is the maximum noise level during the measurement period. CNEL is the community noise equivalent level, a weighted 24-hour measure of noise exposure that considers people’s lower tolerance to noise during the evening and nighttime hours. Railroad Noise Vernon is exposed to noise from train operations on six rail lines, spur lines, and activities at the Burlington, Northern & Santa Fe (BNSF) rail yard, as well as at the Union Pacific (UPRR) rail yard in the adjacent city of Commerce. Table 4.3-2 (Existing Train Movement Data within City of Vernon) identifies the six rail lines affecting Vernon. 1RLVH 4.3-4 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH Table 4.3-2 Existing Train Movement Data within City of Vernon Average Daily Operations Rail Line Day (7 am - 7 pm) Evening (7 pm - 10 pm) Night (10 pm - 7 am) Speed BNSF line adjacent to 26th St. Freight 16 4 12 40 mph Amtrak 19 3 4 65 mph Metrolink 34 2 11 65 mph BNSF line east of Santa Fe Ave. Freight 7 2 5 15 mph UP line on Alameda St. Freight 28 7 21 40 mph UP line on Downey Rd.

However, the land uses exposed to train noise are largely industrial in nature and are not noise sensitive. The primary source of annoyance to residents in the vicinity of the UPRR line adjacent to S. Downey Road is train horn soundings at crossings. Industrial Noise Due to the industrial nature of the City, manufacturing businesses in Vernon create noise, including noise generated by loading dock operations, trucks entering and leaving the area, and mechanical equipment located both inside and outside the building. The certified EIR determined that industrial noise at a residence adjacent to an industrial property was 69.3 CNEL. In addition, noise measurements were taken in the rear yards of two residences located in the neighboring Huntington Park and Maywood. The results indicated a CNEL of approximately 62 dB in Huntington Park and 64 dB in Maywood. The location at the site of measurement in Huntington Park is a residence abutting an industrial property in the City of Vernon. As such, the primary noise source affecting this residence is noise from the industrial property, with the average noise level ranging from 51.0 to 66.7 dB(A), and the maximum noise level ranged from 66.9 to 87.6 dB(A) during the daytime hours of 7:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. During the nighttime hours, the average noise level ranged from 44.0 to 51.5 dB(A), and the maximum noise level ranged from 54.0 to 73.7 dB(A). The calculated CNEL of 61.5 dB at this residence is less than the exterior CNEL guideline of 65 dB for residential properties in Vernon. This level also does not exceed the City of Huntington Park’s CNEL standard of 65 dB. 1RLVH 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW - In the city of Maywood, a noise measurement was obtained at a residence abutting an industrial property in Vernon. This residence is affected by noise from industrial ventilation equipment, traffic on Fruitland Avenue, and aircraft flyovers. At this location, the average noise level ranged from 57.1 to 60.9 dB(A), and the maximum noise level ranged from 72.3 to 84.8 dB(A) during the daytime hours of 7:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. During the nighttime hours, the average noise level ranged from 55.1 to 58.5 dB(A), and the maximum noise level ranged from 71.1 to 84.7 dB(A). The City of Maywood zoning code lists the following noise standards for residential areas: 55 dB(A) during nighttime hours of 10:00 P.M. to 7:00 A.M. and 60 dB(A) during daytime hours of 7:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. Noise-sensitive Land Uses Noise is particularly problematic when noise-sensitive land uses are proximate to the noise. Because Vernon predominantly consists of industrial uses and because policy set forth in the Housing Element prohibits the construction of any new housing in Vernon in recognition of the hazards – including high noise levels associated with widespread industrial activity – these standards discourage any new noise-sensitive use that would be incompatible with the City’s industrial focus. However, the adopted 2014-2021 Housing Element included the addition of Housing and Emergency Shelter Overlays. The Housing Overlay supports development of residential units on approximately two acres in the eastern portion of the Planning Area and the Emergency Shelter Overlay supports development of emergency shelters on approximately 1.61 acres in the northwest portion of the Planning Area. The only noise-sensitive land uses currently existing within the City are 31 residential units (as of 2007) and the Vernon City Elementary School. These residences are primarily clustered in three areas: (1) on East Vernon Avenue at Furlong Place, (2) on East Vernon Avenue between Downey Road and Alcoa Avenue, and (3) on Fruitland Avenue west of Downey Road. In addition, there are a few mixed-use residential/commercial land uses on Leonis Boulevard at Soto Street. Vernon City Elementary School is located at the southwest corner of East Vernon Avenue and South Santa Fe Avenue. As noted above, residential neighborhoods in Maywood and Huntington Park abut Vernon. Schools are located near the City boundary as well. According to Figure 4.3-1 (Noise/Land Use Compatibility Matrix (noise standards), exterior noise levels are normally compatible up to 75 dB CNEL for residential use and 65 dB CNEL for school use. Threshold for Determining Significance In the adopted General Plan, the City establishes CNEL standards for noise/land use compatibility. The CNEL standard is up to 65 CNEL for schools and churches, up to 75 CNEL for residences and office uses, and generally up to 80 CNEL or higher for the predominate industrial uses as shown in Figure 4.3-1 (Noise/Land Use Compatibility Matrix (noise standards)). In the Zoning Ordinance, the City sets forth one-hour standards for point-source noise as follows: x 75 dB(A) citywide, except within one-tenth of a mile from any residence or public school; 1RLVH 4.3-6 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH x Within one-tenth of a mile of residences and schools, 65 dB(A) during day- time hours; and x Within one-tenth of a mile of residences, 60 dB(A) during night-time hours. Any noise source in excess of the standards specified may only be permitted with a Conditional Use Permit, which may only be permitted with a finding that the proposed use will not adversely affect the general welfare as a result of noise. 1RLVH 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW - Figure 4.3-1 Noise/Land Use Compatibility Matrix (noise standards) Environmental Impact As discussed in Section 3.0 (Project Description) of this Supplemental EIR, updated General Plan land use policy permits the establishment of housing on 52nd Place between King Avenue and Mayflower Avenue in the southeastern portion of the 1RLVH 4.3-8 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH City. With regard to the future establishment of other noise-sensitive uses such as hospitals, day-care facilities, and private schools, the Zoning Ordinance specifically prohibits these uses. The City has no jurisdiction regarding the placement of public schools within Vernon, but generally the City discourages such uses due to the industrial nature of the community. The certified EIR indicated that long-term implementation of land use policy is anticipated to result in a decline in the amount of industrial building space citywide by approximately 1.2 million square feet over the life of the General Plan. The decline will occur generally because new development will be required to meet current parking and loading standards. Older buildings that currently cover entire lots will be replaced with more modern development projects that provide sufficient off-street parking and loading facilities. The General Plan Noise Element includes the noise/land use compatibility criteria that will guide decisions regarding the siting of new land uses and protecting existing noise-sensitive uses from excessive noise. Future development projects pursuant to updated General Plan land use policy will be considered compatible with the existing noise environment if the project is deemed to be normally acceptable or conditionally acceptable. Those projects which are determined to be normally acceptable are likely to require no mitigation measures, and those which are conditionally acceptable may be required to incorporate mitigation measures to achieve City standards. Measures may include, for example, noise insulation internal or external to the building, including sound walls or building insulation. To address point-source noise associated with industrial activity, the Zoning Ordinance establishes the following standards: x 75 dB(A) citywide, except near any residence or public school; x Within one-tenth of a mile of residences and schools, 65 dB(A) between 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M.; and x Within one-tenth of a mile of residences, 60 dB(A) between 10:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M. Per the Zoning Ordinance, any noise source in excess of the standards specified may only be permitted with a Conditional Use Permit, which may only be permitted with a finding that the proposed use will not adversely affect the general welfare as a result of noise. Land Use Compatibility and Projected Future Noise Levels Noise contour modeling was performed during preparation of the certified General Plan EIR based on projected future regional traffic volumes and rail activity to determine future noise conditions. Exhibit 4.3-3 (Future CNEL Contours) illustrates the projected future noise contours for Vernon. As the Exhibit shows, the highest noise levels í up to 80 CNEL í are anticipated to occur around the Hobart rail yard, along Alameda Street, along Santa Fe Avenue between Vernon Avenue and 37th Street, along Soto Street north of Vernon Avenue, and along Bandini Avenue and 1RLVH 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW - Atlantic Boulevard north of the Los Angeles River. These increases are anticipated due to the anticipated increase in regional truck and vehicle traffic utilizing these surface streets. The focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update establishes a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay and replaces and expands the existing Commercial Overlay with the new C-1 and C-2 Commercial Overlays. Development pursuant to focused update will result in continued industrial use throughout the community, with provision for commercial uses along Santa Fe Avenue, Pacific Boulevard, Soto Street north of Fruitland Avenue, East Slauson Avenue, and select areas at the eastern boundary of the Vernon to meet the needs of the daytime employee population. The noise/land use compatibility criteria indicate that such uses are classified as normally compatible in environments with a CNEL of up to 80. Vernon General Plan land use policy and Zoning Ordinance strictly limit any new noise- sensitive uses (for example, residences, schools, day-care facilities, hospitals) into the City, except for residences in the Housing Overlay, which are subject to a Development Agreement. A Development Agreement will allow tailored development standards to be applied to proposed residential projects, thereby providing flexibility in responding to the unique land use conditions in Vernon. In addition, the certified EIR established Mitigation Measures N-1 and N-2. Mitigation Measure N-1 requires that the City continue to enforce noise regulations and to periodically evaluate regulations for adequacy and revision as needed. Mitigation Measure N-2 requires the review of all development proposals and building permits to determine whether the proposed use has the potential to exceed City noise standards. An acoustical analysis is required for all developments with the potential to exceed noise standards and for uses near existing residences and schools. All mitigation measures included in the certified EIR are applicable to the proposed focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update. Thus, consistent with the certified EIR, the City does not anticipate that any new noise/land use conflicts within Vernon will arise over the life of this General Plan update. In this regard, impact will be less than significant and consistent with the findings of the certified EIR. Industrial Noise and Ground-borne Vibrations In general, existing noise and vibration conditions associated with industrial activity within Vernon are not considered excessive because of the predominantly industrial nature of the City. As stated in the certified EIR, implementation of land use policy and zoning regulations will allow potentially noise-intensive industrial businesses to locate adjacent or in close proximity to existing residences in Vernon, Vernon City Elementary School, and residences and public schools in adjacent jurisdictions. Impact would primarily result from noise generated by loading dock operations, trucks entering and leaving the area, mechanical equipment located both inside and outside the building(s), and outdoor industrial activity. Implementation of zoning regulations that establishes one-hour standard of 65 dB(A) between 7:00 A.M. and 10:00 P.M. within one-tenth mile of any residence or public school in Vernon or adjacent communities. In addition, a conditional use permit for any use that has the potential to generate excessive noise is required for any use within one-tenth 1RLVH 4.3-10 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH MITIGATION N-1 MITIGATION N-2 mile of a residence or public school. The certified EIR determined that implementation of these regulations will allow the City to mitigate any potential impacts associated with individual projects on a case-by-case basis and reduce impact to level considered less than significant. The focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update establishes a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay and replaces and expands the existing Commercial Overlay with the new C-1 and C-2 Commercial Overlays. Potential new commercial uses along Santa Fe Avenue, Pacific Boulevard, Soto Street, and East Slauson Avenue will be located in close proximity to existing industrial, residential, and school use. Consistent with the certified EIR, implementation of zoning regulations will require potential impacts to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. In addition, implementation of certified EIR Mitigation Measures N-1 and N-2 will reduce impacts to less than significant levels. With regard to ground-borne vibrations, Vernon is a predominately industrial city with uses that involve industrial processes that produce vibrations measurable beyond the property line. As stated in the certified EIR, Article IV, Section 26.4.1-6 of the Zoning Ordinance addresses such vibrations and guards against one business adversely impacting another. The certified EIR determined that impacts related to ground-borne vibrations will be less than significant. Consistent with the certified EIR, Article IV, Section 26.4.1-6 of the Zoning Ordinance will apply to future use pursuant to the focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update. Thus, impact will be less than significant and consistent with the findings of the certified EIR. Mitigation Measures The following mitigation measures were incorporated with the certified General Plan EIR and remain applicable to the proposed General Plan update. Noise Regulations. Continue to enforce City noise regulations contained in the Zoning Ordinance to protect residents and school children from excessive noise levels associated with stationary noise sources. Periodically evaluate regulations for adequacy and revise, as needed, to address community needs and changes in legislation and technology. Siting of New Businesses and Activities near Sensitive Land Uses. Review all development proposals and building permits within the City to determine whether the proposed use has the potential to exceed City one-hour noise standards. The City’s standards are lower at locations near existing residences and schools. As appropriate, require acoustical analyses for all such development and activities near such uses, and determine if mitigation measures are required. Require property and 1RLVH 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW - business owners to implement mitigation to achieve City noise standards. Level of Impact after Mitigation Incorporation Consistent with the certified EIR, impacts will be less than significant at the program level with implementation of mitigation, General Plan policies, and regulatory requirements. 1RLVH 4.3-12 )RFXVHG*HQHUDO3ODQDQG=RQLQJ2UGLQDQFH8SGDWH 2007 Noise Contours Noise Measurement Locations - Future Noise Contours 6XSSOHPHQWDO(QYLURQPHQWDO,PSDFW5HSRUW

Kevin Wilson KWilson@ci.vernon.ca.us 323-583-8811 City of Vernon , Los Angeles County Print Form The proposed project consists of: 1) a comprehensive update to the Vernon General Plan Housing Element; 2) a related revision to the Land Use Element to introduce a new Housing Overlay (and permit a potential housing development at 4675 52nd St.) and an Emergency Shelter Overlay; 3) revisions to the Land Use, Noise, Safety, and Resources Elements to respond to newly adopted State Law; and 4) focused revisions to the Vernon Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map, including introduction of a Housing Overlay, an Emergency Shelter Overlay, and a Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay; expansion of the Commercial Overlay and revisions to allowable commercial uses; and minor edits to clarify other provisions. Based on the findings of the Initial Study, the City has identified topics for further analysis in a Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (Supplemental EIR to the 2007 Vernon General Plan and Zoning Ordinance EIR, State Clearinghouse No. 2007061031). Other impact issues were found to have no effects or would result in less than significant impacts. No mitigation measures were proposed in the Initial Study. Potentially significant effects identified that will be further analyzed in the SEIR are: Air Quality, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Hazards & Hazardous Materials, Noise, and Transportation/Traffic. Provide a list of the responsible or trustee agencies for the project. If applicable, describe any of the project’s areas of controversy known to the Lead Agency, including issues raised by agencies and the public. continued City of Vernon Vernon General PlanVernon General Planand Zoning Ordinance UpdateSupplemental EIR Scoping Meeting1 Purpose of the Scoping MeetingppggTo determine the scope and content of the environmental information to bethe environmental information to beincluded in the Supplemental Environmental Impact ReportEnvironmental Impact Report2 Supplemental EIRpp•General Plan and Zoning Ordinance EIR certified gin 2007Supplemental EIR (SEIR) CEQA Guidelines•Supplemental EIR (SEIR) CEQA Guidelines15162–Minor additions or changes would be necessary to make the previous EIR adequately apply to the proposedproject in the changed situationpp pj g3 Project DescriptionjpGeneral Plan AmendmentsGeneral Plan Amendments•Housing Element amendment–2014-2021 State-required update20142021 Staterequired update–Good governance: Allow up to 60 more units in the City•Land Use Element amendments –newHousing Overlay–newEmergency Shelter OverlayddlO l–expandedCommercialOverlay•Noise, Safety, & Resources Element amendmentsAB 162 SB 244 SB 375 d d t l t i f ti–AB 162,SB 244,SB 375, and updates relevantinformation4 Project DescriptionjpOther ComponentsOther Components•Zoning Ordinance and Map Amendments•Achieve consistency with General Plan amendmentsAchieve consistency with General Plan amendments–newHousing Overlay, newEmergency Shelter Overlay, expandedCommercial Overlay•newTruck and Freight Terminal Overlay District•Allow ancillary commercial uses on weekends5 Project DescriptionjpOther ComponentsOther Components•4675 52nd Street proposed housing developmentdevelopment•2.06-acre City-owned site •Anticipated 35-45 unitsp6 Planning Areag7 Draft Land Use Map8 Draft Zoning Map9 Project DescriptionjpGeneral Plan (Proposed)General Plan (Proposed)Land Use Capacity•No net increase in industrial building square footage or employment projections•Potential modest increase in commercial developmentdevelopment•Permit an additional 60 units of housing10(Estimated 216 additional residents) Purpose of the EIRp•Public disclosure of the environmental consequences of a proposed project or planIdentify mitigation measures and examine•Identify mitigation measures and examinealternatives to reduce or avoid potentially significant impacts•Planning tool to assist decision-makers in evaluating benefits/disadvantages of theevaluating benefits/disadvantages of theproposed General Plan and Zoning Code amendments11 SEIR Process and ScheduleMilestones Estimated Completion DatesScoping Process September 26, 2012Draft EIR Distributed for Public Review & Comment (45 days)Late November 2012 Review & Comment (45 days)End of Draft EIR Public Review PeriodJanuary 2013P epa e Responses to CommentsPrepare Responses to Commentson DEIRJanuary 2013Prepare Final EIR Certification DtJanuary 2013DocumentsJanuary 2013Public Hearings/Final Certification February 201312 Topics Included in the SEIRTopics Included in the SEIR•Air Quality•Greenhouse Gases•Hazards/Hazardous Materials•Noise•Transportation/Trafficp/•Cumulative and Growth Inducing Impacts•Alternatives•Irreversible Environmental Changes13 Focus of Requested Comments on Scope of the EIRon Scope of the EIR•Specifickinds of impacts of concern—e.g. traffic congestion at particular locationstraffic congestion at particular locations,local greenhouse gas emissions, noise or hazardous conditions from specifichazardous conditions from specificsources, etc.14 Focus of Requested Comments on Scope of the EIRon Scope of the EIR•Specificconcerns about effectiveness of existing City policies and planning and engineering programs that deal with environmental protection and protection from hazards15 Focus of Requested Comments on Scope of the EIRon Scope of the EIR•Suggestions about ways to improve or change City policies and programs tochange City policies and programs tobetter address specific environmental concernsconcerns16 Focus of Requested Comments on Scope of the EIRon Scope of the EIR•Air Quality/GHG:Industrial uses andAir Quality/GHG:Industrial uses andtransportation sources•Hazards and Hazardous Materials: Industrial uses; active earthquake faults•Noise:Business/industrial noise; traffic and train noisei / ffibl d k•Transportation/Traffic:Automobile and trucktraffic; train impacts17 Vernon General PlanVernon General Planand Zoning Ordinance UpdateSupplemental EIR Scoping Meeting18 STATE OF CALIFORNIA Edmund G. Brown Jr.,Governor PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION 320 WEST 4TH STREET, SUITE 500 LOS ANGELES, CA 90013 September 21, 2012 S. Kevin Wilson City of Vernon 4305 Santa Fe Avenue Vernon, CA 90058 Dear Mr. Wilson: Re: SCH# 2007061031 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update The California Public Utilities Commission (Commission) has jurisdiction over the safety of highway- rail crossings (crossings) in California. The California Public Utilities Code requires Commission approval for the construction or alteration of crossings and grants the Commission exclusive power on the design, alteration, and closure of crossings in California. The Commission Rail Crossings Engineering Section (RCES) is in receipt of the Notice of Preparation (NOP) from the State Clearinghouse for the proposed City of Vernon (City) Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update project. Previously on June 26 and October 5, 2007, RCES issued two (2) comment letters on the matter. RCES recommends that the City add language to the General Plan so that any future development adjacent to or near the shared railroad/light rail right-of-way is planned with the safety of the rail corridor in mind. New developments may increase traffic volumes not only on streets and at intersections, but also at at-grade highway-rail crossings. This includes considering pedestrian circulation patterns/destinations with respect to railroad right-of-way and compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Mitigation measures to consider include, but are not limited to, the planning for grade separations for major thoroughfares, improvements to existing at-grade highway-rail crossings due to increase in traffic volumes and continuous vandal resistant fencing or other appropriate barriers to limit the access of trespassers onto the railroad right-of-way. If you have any questions, please contact Ken Chiang at 213-576-7076, email at ykc@cpuc.ca.gov.

As noted in Section 15089(b) of the Guidelines, the focus of a FEIR should be on responses to comments on the Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (Draft SEIR). Accordingly, this document incorporates the City of Vernon Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Draft SEIR, Volumes I through II (State Clearinghouse No. 2007061031) by reference, in its entirety. The Draft SEIR is available for review at the City of Vernon, 4305 South Santa Fe Avenue, Vernon, California 90058 and on the City’s web site (www.cityofvernon.org). The contents of this FEIR include: Section 1: Introduction Section 2: Responses to Comments The City published a Notice of Availability and circulated the Draft SEIR for public review and comment for a 45-day review period from December 4, 2014 through January 20, 2015. A total of three different pieces of correspondences were submitted to the City during the review period. This section includes a list of all correspondence submitted to the City of Vernon, each identified by a letter for later reference, together with the authors and the dates the letters were issued. Following this list, all of the letters are presented, with numbered brackets to highlight specific comments that are responded to in the next section. Review of Environmental Documents Section 15204 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines provides guidance to the public and public agencies in reviewing CEQA documents. This section is designed not to limit the scope of comments that can be submitted but to focus comments on issues that are substantive to the environmental analysis. Commenting entities should focus on the adequacy of the document in identifying and analyzing impacts to the environment, and should identify any areas they believe to be inadequate. The guidance indicates that comments should be submitted in a manner that: Identifies a specific environmental effect Supports the effect and its significance with substantial evidence Comments should include alternatives or mitigation measures to avoid or reduce identified, specific environmental effects. This section reiterates that the lead agency is bound by “reasonableness” and “good faith” in its analysis and that the lead agency is not required to respond to comments on the FEIR that do not identify significant environmental issues. Each response provided in this Final EIR is coded to correspond to the individual comment/author and each of the bracketed comments in that letter. A summary table is included with each response to identify if the response introduces “new 1 Introduction 2 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update significant information” under any of the four categories identified in Section 15088 et seq. of the CEQA Guidelines. Evaluation of Comments Section 15088 et seq. of the State CEQA Guidelines provides guidance on the evaluation and response to comments received during circulation of the Draft SEIR. To summarize: The lead agency must evaluate all comments received during the public review period and prepare a written response to comments on significant environmental issues. The lead agency must provide the response to the commenting entity at least 10 days prior to certification of the EIR. The response must: o Identify any significant environmental issues raised in the comment; o Explain, if necessary, why any recommendations provided in the comment were not accepted; and o Be supported by reasoned analysis. Responses may be provided as direct revisions to the DEIR or as a separate section of the FEIR with marginal notes in the DEIR text indicated that it was subsequently revised. A lead agency is required to recirculate the DEIR if “significant new information” is introduced during the public comment period. “Significant new information” includes: 1. New significant impacts 2. Substantial increases in the severity of impacts 3. Feasible alternatives or mitigation that would reduce significant impacts 4. Identification of inadequacies in the analysis Recirculation is not required when new information is not significant; this includes: Revisions that clarify or amplify an adequate analysis Insignificant modifications (such as spelling and grammar corrections) Section 3: Errata This section identifies revisions to the Draft SEIR to incorporate clarifications developed in response to comments on the Draft SEIR. Additions to the text are underlined and deletions have been stricken through. No substantial revisions were made to the Draft SEIR, and recirculation of the document is not required pursuant to CEQA. Section 4: Notices and Distribution This consists of notices concerning the release of the Draft SEIR for public review and comment, and the list of agencies, groups and individuals who were sent notices and/or a copy of the Draft SEIR. Responses to Comments 2 Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 3 2 Responses to Comments The Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (Draft SEIR) was circulated for a 45-day public review and comment period beginning December 4, 2014 and ending January 20, 2015. Correspondence was received from agencies and the public during this time period. The correspondence listed in Table 1 (Draft SEIR Comments) was submitted to the City of Vernon concerning the Draft SEIR. Written responses to comments are subsequently provided. The following responses to comments include a summary statement to identify if the response will introduce “new significant information” under any of the four categories identified in Section 15088 et seq. of the CEQA Guidelines or if it does not introduce “new significant information.” The four general categories are: 1. New significant impacts 2. Substantial increases in the severity of impacts 3. Feasible alternatives or mitigation that would reduce significant impacts 4.

To adequately assess and mitigate project-related impacts, the comment includes recommended actions, including a record search, archaeological inventory survey, and a Sacred Lands File Check. The proposed project does not involve any development activity. At the time development applications are received, the City will evaluate the potential impacts to cultural resources on a project-by-project basis pursuant to CEQA/NEPA and may include a Sacred Lands File search and/or tribal consultation, as applicable. The City will comply with all applicable state and federal regulations regarding cultural resources. As stated in the 2012 Initial Study prepared for the proposed project, in the unlikely event that resources are discovered, compliance with existing regulatory procedures would be required. No further response is required. This response does not identify any new information. Responses to Comments 2 Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 9 Comment B – California Department of Transportation – District 7 2 Responses to Comments 10 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Responses to Comments 2 Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 11 Response B – California Department of Transportation – District 7 B-1 Caltrans states that a target LOS at the transition between LOS C and LOS D on State highway facilities should be maintained. If an existing State highway is operating at less than the appropriate target LOS, the existing measure of effectiveness should be maintained. Caltrans notes that Interstate 710 (I-710) currently operates near or at capacity during the peak hours and that the off-ramps at southbound I-710 and Bandini Boulevard and at northbound I-710 and Atlantic Boulevard should be analyzed. The traffic study prepared for the proposed project analyzed the City’s arterial street network and included analysis of the Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard intersection, which interacts directly with the I- 710 on- and off-ramps. As discussed on page 4.4-2 of the SEIR, this intersection directly impacts the freeway interchange, particularly due to the substantial truck traffic in the area and trucks originating from the Hobart Rail Yard. Table 4.4-2 in the SEIR indicates that the Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard intersection currently operates at LOS F during both the morning and evening peak periods. Engineering studies sponsored in part by the Gateway Cities Council of Governments call for improvements to the interchange that could include dedicated truck ramps. However, as stated on page 4.4-2 of the SEIR, detailed engineering plans and studies for this interchange will continue to concert with broader plans for improvements to I-710, with expected improvements to the interchange to be accomplished prior to 2030. The timing will depend upon State approvals and funding. The environmental documents for the I-710 improvement project, outlining the alternatives for this interchange, have yet to be released. Once implemented, the interchange improvements are expected to relieve a major traffic bottleneck and improve safety by separating autos from heavy truck traffic. This comment does not identify any significant new information and does not comment on the adequacy of the environmental analysis in the SEIR. B-2 Caltrans encourages the City of Vernon to work with neighboring cities to resolve traffic impacts on the freeways and State highways, particularly with regard to: x I-710 freeway on/off ramps x Cumulative traffic impacts x The need for fair-share payment of improvements at Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard precedent to completion of the I-710 improvement project x Payment of traffic impact fees 2 Responses to Comments 12 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update The Vernon General Plan Circulation Element already contains the following policies focused on regional cooperation to improve mobility, including both physical improvements and increased use of alternative transit modes. Policy CI-1.7: Encourage the continued improvement of services provided by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transit Authority to Vernon and adjacent cities to provide good access from home to job to job to home for persons employed in Vernon. Policy CI-1.9: Continue to work with Caltrans and neighboring jurisdictions to improve the Atlantic/Bandini/I-710 intersection and to make improvements to the I-710 Freeway, including direct truck ramps to the rail yards and exploring the potential for adding an interchange at Slauson Avenue to improve access to the City. Policy CI-1.12: Consider installing and maintaining an ATSAC system to improve traffic flow. Policy CI-1.13: Cooperate with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority and other local agencies in their efforts to complete a bicycle path along the levee of the Los Angeles River connecting to adjacent jurisdictions. The Gateway Cities Council of Governments, in which Vernon and adjacent jurisdictions participate, has initiated preparation of a Strategic Transportation Plan for the region. The consultant leading the effort will be completing a detailed study of freeways and arterials within the Gateway Cities region, with the goal of identifying a multitude of ways to improve regional mobility. The study will address multimodal mobility, including the improvements identified by Caltrans to I-710 ramps and the Atlantic Boulevard/Bandini Boulevard interchange. Also, the study will identify funding and financing strategies. The City notes that longer-term enhancements to the ramps and interchange will be accomplished as part of Caltrans’ I-710 improvement project. With regard to funding of long-term improvements, Vernon does not charge traffic impact fees at this time. Any improvements to the street/circulation system are funded consistent with Capital Improvement Program directives, with funding sources such as the general fund, gas tax proceeds, and grants. Other agencies are responsible for funding improvements to regional facilities such as freeway segments, interchanges, and ramps, and bus and transit facilities. State gas tax and other revenue sources—to which the City of Vernon and property and business owners contribute—pay for such improvements. This comment does not identify any significant new information and does not comment on the adequacy of the environmental analysis in the SEIR.

The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Statutes (Public Resources Code Sections 21000 through 21178), Section 21081 requires the Lead Agency (City of Vernon) to issue written findings for significant impacts identified in the Environmental Impact Report (EIR), accompanied by a brief rationale for each finding. Section 15091 of the CEQA Guidelines states that: “(a) No public agency shall approve or carry out a project for which an environmental impact report has been certified which identifies one or more significant environmental effects of the project unless the public agency makes one or more written findings for each of those significant effects, accompanied by a brief explanation of the rationale for each finding: The possible findings are: (1) Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project which avoid or substantially lessen the significant environmental effect as identified in the Final EIR. (2) Such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and have been, or can and should be, adopted by that other agency. (3) Specific economic, legal, social, technological, or other considerations, including considerations for the provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers, make infeasible the mitigation measures or alternatives identified in the environmental impact report. (b) With respect to significant effects which were subject to a finding under paragraph (3) of subdivision (a), the public agency finds that specific overriding economic, legal, social, technological or other benefits of the project outweigh the significant effects on the environment.” In accordance with Section 21081 of the CEQA Statutes, whenever significant impacts cannot be substantially mitigated and remain unavoidable, the benefits of the proposed project must be balanced against the unavoidable environmental consequences in determining whether to approve the proposed project. The Lead Agency must make Findings of Fact and adopt a Statement of Overriding Considerations where the decision of the Lead Agency allows the occurrence of significant effects that are identified in the EIR, but are not substantially mitigated. This document sets forth the City of Vernon’s Findings and Statement of Overriding Considerations, pursuant to Section 21081 of the CEQA Statutes, as supported by substantial evidence in the record. Pr o j ec t Des c r i p t i o n The proposed project is the adoption and implementation of a focused updated to the City of Vernon General Plan, referred to herein as the General Plan, and the adoption of focused amendments to the City of Vernon Zoning Ordinance. The project consists of several components: x Update the Land Use Element to expand the locations where commercial uses and trucking and freight terminals can be established in the City. 1 Findings of Fact 4 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update x Update the Land Use, Resources, Safety, and Noise Elements to comply all current State laws and to update pertinent information. x Update the Implementation Plan with new applicable policies related to the above revised policy changes. x Revise the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map to establish and apply a new Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay (TF) to over approximately 1,065 acres of land zoned for industrial use. x Revise the Zoning Ordinance and Zoning Map to replace and expand the existing Commercial Overlay with the new C-1 and C-2 Commercial Overlays, with the overlay zones to be applied to approximately 281 acres and 177 acres, respectively. x Establish a new Minor Conditional Use Permit process. x Provide standards for digital billboards. x Perform additional clean-up, non-substantive revisions to the Zoning Ordinance that do not affect any prior policy directives. In i t i al St u d y an d No t i c e o f Pr ep ar at i o n In accordance with Section 15063 of the CEQA Guidelines, a Lead Agency must conduct an Initial Study following preliminary review of a proposed project. Based on an initial project description, the City prepared an Initial Study in September of 2012, and prepared and published a Notice of Preparation (NOP). The NOP was circulated for public review and comment for a 30-day review period beginning on September 13, 2012. In accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15163, the City, as the Lead Agency, has prepared a Supplement to the previously certified General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Program Environmental Impact Report (SCH No. 2007061031). Mi t i g at i o n Mo n i t o r i n g Rep o r t i n g Pr o g r am As required by CEQA Statute 21081.6, a program for reporting on and monitoring mitigation measures will be adopted by the Lead Agency.

Findings on Significant and Unavoidable and Potentially Significant Impacts 2 Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 7 Fi n d i n g s o n Si g n i f i c an t Im p ac t s t h at Can B e Mi t i g at ed Hazar d s an d Hazar d o u s Mat er i al s Im p ac t s 4.2.A , 4.2.B , an d 4.2.C Section 4.2 (Hazards and Hazardous Materials) of the SEIR identifies significant impacts involving the use, transport, and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes. The project could result in potentially a significant impact involving the use, transport, and disposal of hazardous materials, as 40 to 60 percent of all businesses in Vernon store, use, or manufacture hazardous materials to the extent that a City hazardous materials permit is required. However, pursuant to the discussion in Section 4.2 of the SEIR, any potentially significant impacts involving hazards can be reduced to a level of insignificance with mitigation and implementation of General Plan policies and actions. Accordingly, based on substantial evidence in the SEIR and the Public Record of Proceedings, the City finds and declares that, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15091(a), changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the project which will avoid, mitigate, or substantially lessen any of the project’s impacts involving hazardous materials to a less-than-significant level. Any impact involving hazards has been eliminated or substantially lessened to a level that is less than significant by virtue of the following mitigation measures as identified by the certified General Plan EIR, and incorporated into the project. H-1 The City will continue to implement the provisions of City ordinances to provide for the business occupancy inspection program and the regular inspection of businesses involved in the production, storage, handling, disposal, treatment, emission, discharge, or recycling of hazardous materials. Such activity will be funded as part of the City’s annual budgeting process, special tax, and/or will be funded as a fee program. H-2 At the time any new or revised Hazardous Material Business application for a new business or activity is received for a location within one-quarter mile of any residence, school, hospital, residential assisted care facility, or similar use (sensitive uses may be located within the City or outside its boundaries), or greater distance as may be determined by the Director of Environmental Health Department for particular business types, the City will review the application and determine whether a Health Risk Assessment (HRA) is required pursuant to State law and/or City Ordinance 961 to address any potential impacts to these uses. If an HRA is deemed appropriate and further, if the HRA identifies potential risks associated with the business activity relative to proximity to the residence, school, hospital, residential assisted care facility or similar use, the City shall ensure that action is taken to address such risk. The action may consist of: -Denying the application within the limits of the Code of the City of Vernon, or -Requiring the business operator to incorporate preventative or ameliorative measures into the business processes or activities to lower the risk to acceptable levels, as set forth by federal or state regulations and policies. Mitigation Measure H-1 ensures that the City will continue to provide for the business occupancy inspection program and the regular inspection of businesses. Mitigation Measure H-2 ensures that a Health Risk Assessment will be prepared when the City deems it appropriate to address risks to any nearby sensitive receptors. Therefore, the project will have a less-than-significant impact with mitigation. 2 Findings on Significant and Unavoidable and Potentially Significant Impacts 8 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Fi n d i n g Regarding Impacts 4.2.A, 4.2.B, and 4.2.C, the City hereby makes Finding 1 that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project that mitigate or avoid the significant effects on the environment. No i s e Section 4.3 of the SEIR analyzes the potential for significant impacts involving noise from long-term implementation of the General Plan land use plan. However, pursuant to the discussion in Section 4.3 of the EIR, any potentially significant impacts related to future development can be reduced to a level of insignificance with mitigation. The City concurs in this analysis. Accordingly, based on substantial evidence in the EIR and the Public Record of Proceedings, the City finds and declares that, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15091(a), changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Project which will avoid, mitigate, or substantially lessen any future impacts involving short- and long-term noise to a less than significant level. Implementation of the focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance update may result in future development with the potential to produce noise during construction and operations. Any impacts related to noise due to future development will be analyzed on a case-by-case basis. Any impact resulting from short- and long-term noise can been substantially lessened to a level that is less than significant by virtue of the following mitigation measures, as identified by the certified General Plan EIR and incorporated into the project. N-1 No i s e Reg u l at i o n s .. Continue to enforce City noise regulations contained in the Zoning Ordinance to protect residents and school children from excessive noise levels associated with stationary noise sources.

Review all development proposals and building permits within the City to determine whether the proposed use has the potential to exceed City one-hour noise standards. The City’s standards are lower at locations near existing residences and schools. As appropriate, require acoustical analyses for all such development and activities near such uses, and determine if mitigation measures are required. Require property and business owners to implement mitigation to achieve City noise standards. Mitigation Measures N-1 and N-2 ensure that the City will continue to enforce noise regulations and review all development proposals and building permits to determine whether a proposed use has the potential to exceed City noise standards. Therefore, the project will have a less-than-significant impact with mitigation. Fi n d i n g Regarding impacts related to noise, the City hereby makes Finding 1 that changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into, the project that mitigate or avoid significant effects on the environment.

The analysis in the Initial Study concluded that, consistent with the certified General Plan EIR, potentially significant impacts would result relative to air quality, hazards and hazardous materials, transportation/traffic, water supply and solid waste, and noise. These impacts were examined in the Supplemental EIR, with the conclusions made in the Final SEIR as presented in Section 2 of this document. The Initial Study further concluded that no potentially significant impacts or less-than-significant impacts would result relative to: x Aesthetics x Agricultural Resources x Air Quality: Air Quality Plan, Objectionable Odors x Biological Resources x Cultural Resources x Geology and Soils x Hazardous Materials: Airport Land Use Plan hazards, airstrip safety hazards, impair implementation or interfere with an adopted emergency response plan, and exposure to wildland fires x Hydrology and Water Quality: Violate water quality standards, alter existing drainage pattern resulting in flooding or erosion, create or contribute to runoff water, degrade water quality, place housing or structures within a 100-year flood hazard area, expose people to loss related to failure of dam or levee, inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow x Land Use and Planning x Mineral Resources x Noise: Expose people to substantial airport noise proximate to airport land use plan or airstrip x Population and Housing x Public Services x Recreation x Transportation and Traffic: Result in a change in air traffic patterns or substantially increase hazards due to design features, increase hazards due to design feature, result in inadequate emergency access, parking capacity, and conflict with policies supporting alternative transportation. x Utilities The analysis and findings relative to the above environmental issues are contained in the Initial Study, which is included as Appendix A of the SEIR, and are incorporated herein by reference. 3 Impacts Considered in the Initial Study but Found not to be Potentially Significant 10 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update This Page Intentionally Left Blank Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 11 4 Fi n d i n g s o n Pr o j ec t A l t er n at i v es Co n s i d er ed i n t h e En v i r o n m en t al Im p ac t Rep o r t The Alternatives section of the Supplemental EIR was prepared in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15126(d), which requires the analysis of a reasonable range of alternatives capable of eliminating or reducing significant adverse environmental effects of the proposed project. The Alternatives section analyzes the effects of the following alternatives: 1) No Project/Existing General Plan 2) Additional railway/roadway grade separations 3) Zoning Ordinance provisions that allow warehousing facilities of less than 50,000 square feet citywide 4) No truck and freight terminal overlay A l t er n at i v e 1. No Pr o j ec t /Ex i s t i n g Gen er al Pl an The purpose of analyzing a No Project Alternative is to allow decision-makers to compare the impacts of approving the proposed project to the impacts of not approving the project. This alternative assumes that the focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates would not be adopted and implemented. Instead, the development in the City would continue to occur in conformance with the current land use policy map and current zoning regulations, as described in the certified EIR. The General Plan update analyzed in the certified EIR included the establishment of a Commercial Overlay District and the elimination of the so-called 2009 Rule that required all businesses that have nonconforming parking and/or loading facilities to achieve conformity by 2009. The No Project alternative would have resulted in the continued implementation of the 2009 Rule and the General Plan land uses without the Commercial Overlay. In particular, the current Commercial Overlay would remain in effect; the focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates would replace the current Commercial Overlay with two expanded C-1 and C-2 Overlays along Santa Fe Avenue, Pacific Boulevard, Soto Street north of Fruitland Avenue, East Slauson Avenue, and along the eastern boundary of the City. Also, the No Project alternative would not involve establishment of a Truck and Freight Terminal north of 37th Street west of Downey Road and north of the Los Angeles River east of Downey Road. The No Project alternative analyzed in the certified EIR has the potential to accelerate privately initiated reuse and redevelopment activity due to the application of the 2009 Rule and thereby, possibly to reduce overall building area in Vernon. The certified EIR determined that depending on the types of development proposed over the long term, reduced development citywide would reduce vehicle trips and associated air emissions, and decrease demand for potable water. Vernon consists almost entirely of industrial uses, and the extent of businesses using or storing hazardous materials could be expected to remain, depending upon the individual new uses established over the long term. The SEIR concluded the overall level of impact of Alternative 1 would be slightly lower than that associated with the proposed project. The continued application of the 2009 Rule has the potential to improve traffic flow on City streets, as on-street loading activity would be prohibited and on-street parking minimized due to the enforcement of off-street parking requirements. In this regard, the No Project Alternative was considered environmentally superior to the proposed project. With regard to noise impacts, almost all local impacts are associated with regional traffic noise and rail traffic, neither of which would be expected to be affected by the No Project scenario. No change in impact would result. The General Plan Land Use plan designates the entire city as Industrial, with commercial uses allowed only within the designated Commercial Overlay and new residential uses limited to a strictly defined housing overlay area. The proposed project includes the expansion and implementation of two commercial overlay zones and the establishment 4 Findings on Project Alternatives Considered in the Environmental Impact Report 12 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update of a Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone. The focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates do not propose any changes to underlying land use designations or building intensities. Consistent with the adopted General Plan, privately initiated reuse and redevelopment activity would result in overall reduced building area in Vernon with the enforcement of parking and setback requirements. Impacts related to air quality, hazards, noise, traffic, and utilities for the No Project alternative would be equivalent to impacts associated with the proposed project. Fi n d i n g Specific economic and public health and safety considerations make this alternative infeasible. Fac t s i n Su p p o r t o f t h e Fi n di n g New policies and zoning regulations will facilitate establishment of commercial uses in close proximity to industrial businesses, which will benefit the local economy by providing new tax-generating uses. Also, locating commercial uses in Vernon in limited areas will allow employees of industrial businesses to travel shorter distances for restaurants, goods, and services, which will reduce vehicle miles traveled and associated emissions. Establishing the Trucking and Freight Overlay will allow such uses to be established nearer the businesses and logistics centers dependent upon trucking operations. Based on these facts and findings, the City rejects adoption of this alternative. A l t er n at i v e 2. A d d i t i o n al Rai l w ay /Ro ad w ay Gr ad e Sep ar at i o n s Many rail lines cross streets in Vernon at grade, with frequent train activity between the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach largely serving the Hobart Yard and other regional cargo redistribution facilities. Intense rail activity historically has created rail/roadway conflicts in Vernon. However, as stated in the certified General Plan EIR, the City has experienced a substantial decrease in rail traffic and associated congestion as a result of the 2002 completion of the expressway Alameda Corridor. The key environmental impact identified in the certified General Plan EIR was traffic, with delays continuing to be associated in part by rail operations. This alternative, as analyzed in the certified EIR, considers including specific policies in the General Plan to pursue rail/road grade separations at Bandini Boulevard/Downey Road, Pacific Avenue, Vernon Avenue, and District Boulevard/Downey Road. The Circulation and Infrastructure Element, which was analyzed previously in the certified General Plan EIR, includes the following policy, which is non-specific regarding grade separations to be pursued: POLICY CI-1.6: Continue to pursue grade separation for railroad crossings on designated streets. The City has not conducted an analysis of the effects of providing grade separations at the above locations. However, such improvements would have the potential to improve traffic flow and possibly result in reduced air pollutant emissions due to reduced vehicle idling time while waiting for trains to cross roadways. With this assumption, traffic and air quality impacts associated with Alternative 2 would be expected to be reduced relative to the proposed project. With regard to hazards, increased grade separations would reduce the risk of train/roadway vehicle accidents at those locations where separations would be provided. Risk of upset would be slightly reduced. With regard to water use, grade separations would have no effect. Fi n d i n g Specific economic considerations make this alternative infeasible. Fac t s i n Su p p o r t o f t h e Fi n di n g The City has not identified funding for any grade separations in its current Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Also, responsible rail companies have not identified or funded any separations to be accomplished. Based on these facts and findings, the City rejects adoption of this alternative. Findings on Project Alternatives Considered in the Environmental Impact Report 4 Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 13 A l t er n at i v e 3. Zo n i n g Pr o v i s i o n s t o Per m i t War eh o u s i n g Ci t y w i d e At the time of preparation of the certified General Plan EIR, the Zoning Ordinance did not allow new non-refrigerated warehouse facilities larger than 50,000 square feet to locate anywhere in Vernon. The certified General Plan EIR examined the alternative of allowing non-refrigerated warehouse facilities of less than 50,000 square feet to be established (Alternative 3). However, since certification of the Program EIR, the Zoning Ordinance has been amended to allow warehouses uses of any size to locate within the Industrial zone, which encompasses the entire city. Therefore, Alternative 3 analyzed in the certified EIR is no longer applicable and was not discussed or analyzed further in the Supplemental EIR. A l t er n at i v e 4. No Tr u c k an d Fr ei g h t Ter m i n al Ov er l ay This alternative assumes that the proposed Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone would not be established. The proposed focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates provide for a Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone to be applied north of 37th Street and the Los Angeles River and to encompass approximately 1,065 acres. The Vernon Zoning Ordinance defines a freight terminal as a location where goods or freight are transferred or redistributed from one vehicle to another. A truck terminal is defined as a facility used primarily for storage, maintenance, or servicing of highway-type vehicles, not limited to trucks and buses. Elimination of the Truck and Freight Terminal Overlay Zone from the proposed project has the potential to reduce traffic, air quality, and noise impacts. Freight terminals include high turnover of transported goods, resulting in increased and continuous truck trips in the area. Diesel trucks are a major contributor to PM2.5 concentrations, and truck and freight terminal uses could increase the number of diesel trucks on local roads, thereby increasing the area’s PM2.5 concentrations. Overall, local and regional air quality impacts would be reduced under this alternative. Because truck and freight terminal use, if allowed, could result in additional truck traffic due to the intensive trucking operations associated with such uses, impacts on the transportation system could be slightly reduced if exclusive without truck and freight terminal uses were not allowed as proposed. The largest contributor to the ambient noise environment in Vernon is vehicle traffic, especially that of heavy-duty trucks. Noise also is associated with many of the industrial operations occurring citywide. Truck and freight terminal uses would contribute to noise from the delivery systems inherent in their operations, with large trucks driving into the City for deliveries, pick-ups, and servicing. On site, most noise is generated by loading dock operations, trucks entering and leaving the area, and mechanical equipment located both inside and outside the building. As truck and freight terminal uses may have higher levels of noise on site associated with the continuous loading and unloading of goods, noise impacts would be slightly reduced if truck and freight terminal uses were not allowed. However, given the almost exclusively industrial nature of Vernon, noise levels generally are not considered a concern. Many industrial facilities in Vernon use and store hazardous materials. Businesses are required to obtain hazardous materials permits for keeping those materials at the business. In the Industrial zone, hazardous waste facilities require a Conditional Use Permit. The uses—whether warehousing, manufacturing, or truck and freight terminal— would be subject to the same local, state, and federal regulations regarding hazardous materials. Because a similar amount and type of hazardous materials would likely be present in the planning area under this alternative, this alternative would result in a similar impact related to hazards, which is less than significant. Trucking and freight terminal uses are relatively low impact on water and solid waste systems, in comparison to many industrial uses. Industrial uses have the potential to be very water intensive, especially if water is used for cooling in an industrial process. Truck and freight terminals, by comparison, generally use less water. Additionally, because manufacturing does not occur on site with truck and freight terminal uses, the level of waste generated would be comparably less. The primary waste product from truck and freight terminal activities is likely to be packaging materials and waste from the repair and maintenance of vehicles. Overall, the impact on utilities (excluding roads) would be slightly increased if truck and terminal uses were not allowed. 4 Findings on Project Alternatives Considered in the Environmental Impact Report 14 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update Fi n d i n g The City finds that Alternative 4 represents an acceptable alternative, as it would represent continued application of current land use regulations and would result in slightly reduced impacts related to air quality, hazards, traffic, water, and landfills. Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 15 5 Im p l em en t at i o n Sc h ed u l e Given the long-term nature of General Plan implementation and enforcement of Zoning Ordinance regulations, the mitigation measures set forth in Section 2 of this document and documented in the Final SEIR will be implemented over time as needed. 5 Implementation Schedule 16 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update This Page Intentionally Left Blank Supplemental Environmental Impact Report 17 6 St at em en t o f Ov er r i d i n g Co n s i d er at i o n s The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires that a Lead Agency balance the benefits of a project against its unavoidable environmental risk in determining whether to approve the project. If the benefits outweigh the unavoidable adverse effects, those effects may be considered “acceptable” pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15093(a). CEQA requires that a Lead Agency support, in writing, the specific reasons for considering a project acceptable when significant impacts are infeasible to mitigate. Those reasons must be based on substantial evidence in the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) or elsewhere in the administrative record pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15093(b). The Lead Agency’s written reasons are referred to as a Statement of Overriding Considerations. The City will approve the City of Vernon Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance updates and implementing actions, and has prepared a Supplemental EIR that satisfies the requirements of CEQA. The following adverse impacts of the proposed project are considered significant and unavoidable based on the analysis in the Draft SEIR, Final SEIR, and the Findings of Fact. Im p ac t 4.4.A an d 4.4.B : Ci r c u l at i o n Sy s t em Per f o r m an c e. Long-term implementation of land use policy, in combination with regional contributions to traffic on the local road network, will cause an increase in traffic that will result in inadequate Level of Service. Impacts will be significant and unavoidable. The City has determined that the SEIR has identified and discussed significant effects which may occur as a result of the proposed project. With the implementation of the policies of the General Plan and mitigation measures identified in the certified General Plan EIR, these effects can be reduced to levels of less than significant except for the significant impacts identified above, consistent with the findings of the certified General Plan EIR. The City declares that, having reduced the adverse significant environmental effects of the proposed project to the extent feasible, having considered the entire administrative record on the proposed project, and having weighed the benefits of the proposed project against its unavoidable adverse impacts, the City has determined that each of the following social, economic, and environmental benefits of the proposed project separately and individually outweigh the potential unavoidable adverse impacts, and render those potential adverse environmental impacts acceptable based upon the following overriding considerations: 1.L o n g -Ter m Fi s c al St ab i l i t y an d Di v er s i t y o f J o b s .. Implementation of Land Use Element policies and application of Zoning Ordinance provisions will allow the City to maintain a strong tax base and thereby provide for long-term fiscal stability. Land use policies and zoning regulations will allow Vernon to continue to be largely an industrial city, where diverse businesses provide jobs for skilled workers in varied industries. As a city focused on industry, Vernon fills a unique role in the region as a location where industrial businesses are welcomed. 2.In c r eas ed Reg u l at i o n o f B u s i n es s es L o c at i n g n ear Res i d en c es an d Sc h o o l s . The General Plan includes policies, implemented through the Zoning Ordinance, that require new businesses locating within one-tenth of a mile of residences and schools—both in Vernon and adjacent cities—to maintain noise at levels that will not adversely affect conditions at these sensitive receptors. 3.A c c o m m o d at i n g L i m i t ed Co m m er c i al Us es .. General Plan land use policy, implemented through the Zoning Ordinance, will allow commercial uses to establish along key corridors in Vernon and provide needed goods and services for local employees. The benefits include additional tax revenues to fund City services and reduced vehicle miles traveled/associated vehicle emissions due to more localized availability of commercial goods and services. 6 Statement of Overriding Considerations 18 Focused General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Update 4.L eg al l y A d eq u at e Gen er al Pl an ..

Background: Attached is a copy of the Vernon Fire Department Activity Report which covers the period of June 1 through June 30, 2020. This report covers hours for Fire Prevention, Training, Pre-Incident, Periodic Testing, Public Service Programs and Routine Maintenance. It is important to note the following: *Due to the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in the temporary closure of non-essential businesses and in adherence to the Los Angeles County Health Officer's Orders and guidelines for social distancing to minimize COVID-19 exposure, Fire inspections ceased during the months of April and May, impacting the year-to-date figures in the activity report. The Fire Department resumed inspections effective June 1, 2020. *Due to a recent change to LA County's National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS), the department's activity report will no longer include the response time per call. Instead, LA County Fire has provided a new report titled the Vernon Incident Analysis listing only the number of responses, and first-in arrivals per unit. Fiscal Impact: There is no fiscal impact associated with this report. Attachments: 1.

COV-311-2020 Submitted by: Cynthia Cano Submitting Department: Public Works Meeting Date: September 1, 2020 SUBJECT Public Works Monthly Building Report Recommendation: Receive and file the July 2020 Building Report. Background: The attached building report consists of total issued permits, major projects, demolition permits, new building permits and certificate of occupancy status reports for the month of July 2020. The value of permitted construction in Vernon for the period from January through July 2020 was 69% lower than for the same period in 2019. On a positive note, this is a monthly first period over period increase in the trend since January. The reduction in construction is likely due to the the economic uncertainty caused by the erosion of international trade and by the decrease in economic activity caused by the response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Staff will continue to monitor activity level as as the economy reopens. Fiscal Impact: The decrease in the value of permitted construction directly impacts the fee revenues received by the Department. The decreased revenues for FY 2019-2020 were offset by other general fund revenue sources that were collected at or slightly above expectations. In anticipation of the reduced activity and COVID-19 implications, revenue adjustments were made to the FY 2020-2021 budget. Attachments: 1.

Background: As one of the key elements of the City’s good governance reforms, the City Council created the Vernon CommUNITY Fund (VCF) to provide grants to charitable and governmental entities for projects and programs that benefit those residing and working in Vernon. Given the exclusively industrial nature of Vernon, the City Council determined that the VCF was in the best interest of the City and its residents, businesses, and workers. On February 4, 2014, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1218, as amended by Ordinance Nos. 1238, 1257, and 1265 to establish the Vernon CommUNITY Fund Grant Committee (Grant Committee) and provide the basic guidelines and operational procedures for said Committee and its officers, including those related to the allocation of funds and the processes for reviewing and ranking applications and awarding grants. Fiscal Year 2019/2020 Funding Pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code Section 2.164, the City Council may appropriate funds to the VCF. Through the normal budgetary process, City Council authorized an amount of $500,000 to the VCF for fiscal year (FY) 2019/2020. Prior to the modifications set forth in Ordinance No. 1265, the Grant Committee was required to allocate funds for FY 2019/2020 in accordance with the following formula: 1) Administrative Costs shall be determined for the fiscal year and the amount shall be allocated for payment from funds appropriated to the VCF. 2) After Administrative Costs, no less than 25% of funds available in any fiscal year shall be awarded to proposals to expend funds on capital projects with a projected useful life of 10 years or more (capital project grants were eliminated by Ordinance No. 1265 and shall no longer be available for FY 2020/2021, or in subsequent years). 3) The remainder of available funds in any fiscal year may be awarded to proposals to expend funds on direct services and/or scholarship grants. No single grant of this type shall be in an amount more than $250,000. Service Grant Awards The Grant Committee held three grant award meetings during the 2019/2020 Fiscal Year. There were three separate grant dockets, with a combined total of eight (8) Service Grant Awards approved for FY 2019/2020. All grantees and their awarded amounts are listed in the attached table. The total amount awarded for Direct Service Grants was $224,125. Capital Grant Awards The Committee adopted a Capital Grants Program on May 18, 2016 which defined, among other things, the parameters of the capital award process and procedures for applicants, and criteria and timeline for awards. For FY 2019/2020, the City’s VCF capital project allocation of 25% equated to $81,375 which was expended in FY 2019/2020 to benefit three (3) separate capital grant projects in the Vernon Area. Moving forward, the VCF will no longer grant funds for capital projects, as it was determined that the administration of such grants was cumbersome and costly, and is not aligned with the goals of the Grant Committee to streamline expenses for administrative management. Scholarship Grant Awards At its November 8, 2017 meeting, the VCF Grant Committee agreed to proceed with a VCF Pilot Scholarship Program for FY 2018/2019. In response to its successful inaugural year as a pilot program, the Grant Committee approved an allocation in the amount of $20,000 toward the VCF Scholarship Program in FY 2019/2020 as well. As such, the Grant Committee awarded $20,000 in scholarship grants to a total of eight (8) high school seniors from the Vernon Area at its May 20, 2020 Grant Committee meeting. Related Administrative Expenditures In June of 2020, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Administrative Management of Vernon CommUNITY Fund Grant Activities. After a thorough evaluation of respondents’ proposals, Jemmott Rollins Group, Inc. (JRG) was awarded a three (3) year contract with the City to provide administrative management for the VCF with an effective date of August 1, 2020. JRG has extensive experience in non-profit grant-making and grants management and specialized knowledge of ethics and principles governing the grant-making process. During FY 2019/2020, JRG was instrumental in the City’s ability to accept applications, evaluate submissions and, ultimately, award 19 grants with a grand total value of $325,500. The total budgeted cost for their services in FY 2019/2020 was $174,500. For FY 2020/2021, administrative management services for Vernon CommUNITY Fund Grant Committee activities have been reduced to $106,675 (a yearly reduction of $67,825) and will continue to be paid from the Vernon CommUNITY Fund monetary allocation. A $500,000 VCF allocation was approved by City Council during the adoption of a Citywide budget for FY 2020/2021. VCF Direct Service Grants amounting to approximately $373,325 will be awarded at the November 2020 Grant Committee meeting and VCF Scholarship Grants totaling $20,000 will be awarded in May of 2021. The number of grantees and amounts awarded will depend upon the pool of applicants, their proposed projects, and/or funds available. Fiscal Impact: There is no fiscal impact associated with this report. Attachments: 1.

Background: The Vernon Police Department (VPD) has been granted a grant through the Office of Traffic Safety to participate in a Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP). The goals of the program include the following: reduce the number of persons killed and/or injured in traffic collisions; reduce the number of persons killed and/or injured in DUI related collisions; and raise public awareness about DUI enforcement activities in the Los Angeles County region. In order to accomplish the goals of the program, participating agencies will be required to take part in various enforcement activities which include saturation patrol details, motorcycle safety enforcement, distracted driving enforcement, pedestrian and bicycle enforcement, and DUI checkpoints. VPD staff will coordinate enforcement activities as required on an overtime basis. The VPD will receive reimbursement for a majority of the overtime related costs (benefits calculated at 1.45%). The VPD has participated in this program for a number of years and has been successful attaining the goals specified. To participate in the program, law enforcement agencies are required to sign an agreement to receive reimbursement for personnel overtime costs. Reimbursements will be made within 90 days of receipt of an invoice, activity log, and quarterly traffic collision reports. The term of this agreement shall remain in effect until September 30, 2021. The City Attorney's Office has reviewed and approved the proposed agreement as to form. Fiscal Impact: There are sufficient overtime funds in the FY2020-2021 VPD budget for participation in STEP. The projected overtime reimbursement for VPD's annual participation is approximately $110,000. Attachments: 1.

PROBLEM STATEIUIENT The City of Vernon will use grant funds for enforcement efforts to target DUI drivers, as well as those who commit other violations (speed, distracted driving, turning/yielding violations, etc.) that may contribute to traffic collisions. Our mission would continue to be simple in concept: continue to educate the public about the dangers and consequences of DUI divers, and reduce traffic collisions and in doing so, reduce injuries and deaths associated to such collisions. The City of Vernon Public Works Traffic Engineering Division conducted afaffic Collision Review Report in 2014. lncluded in the report are the most frequent locations of traffic collisions and a list of the top primary collision factors. Current statistics (refer to Traffic Data Summary below) from 2017 -2019 indicate the top primary collision factors have remained the same. ln examining the OTS Collision Rankings for 2017, we have also identified the below problem areas that we recognize and need to be addressed. As a part of the Group G, the City of Vernon had the following rankings: Total Fatal and lnjury: 1112 Alcohol lnvolved: 1112 Had Been Drinking Driver < 21: 1112 Had Been Drinking Driver 21-34: 1112Motorcycles: 1112Pedestrians: 2112Bicyclists: 1112Composite. '1112 Speed Related: 1112 Nighttime (9pm-2:59am): 1112 Hit and Run: 1112 With the assistance and activities a STEP grant offers our department, we will strive to reduce traffic collisions, therefore reducing injunes and deaths associated with traffic collisions. Our target population is not just limited to "infraction violators" andior "DUl suspects." The Vernon Police Department sincerely wants our entire community to know that traffic safety is a major priority to us- That is one of the reasons why the Press Release during the cycle of a grant is so important, because it communicates to the public that there is an emphasis and priority on traffic safety in our city. We intend to continue to drive home this message, through educational handouts at checkpoints and/or during routine public contacts. The following is a traffic data summary, including 2019 statistics: - 4 fatal collision with 1 victim (1 more than 2017,3 more than 2018 ). - 186 injury collisions with 260 victims (24 morc collisions lhan 2017, and 2 more than 2018). - 6 alcohol involved collisions with injuries (1 less than 2017, and 2 less than 2018), with 1 fatality. - 10 pedestrians were injured in collisions (3 more than 2017, and 5 more than 2018), with no fatalities. - 11 were injured in collisions (5 less than 2017, and 1 more than 2018), with 1 PERFORMANCE MEASURES A.

Approve and authorize the City Administrator to execute a Services Agreement with MRC Smart Technology Solutions, in substantially the same form as submitted, for a three-year term in an amount not-to-exceed $206,360 ($68,786.82 per year) for Managed Print Services (MPS) with an effective date of September 20, 2020; and B. Approve and authorize the City Administrator to execute a related Lease Agreement with Xerox, in substantially the same form as submitted, for a three-year term in an amount not-to-exceed $83,640 ($27,879.84 per year) for MPS with an effective date of September 20, 2020. Background: The Information Technology Division (IT) is requesting approval to award a Services Agreement to MRC Smart Technology Solutions (MRC) for an MPS solution that will maximize efficiency and reduce overall printing costs. In addition to the Service Agreement with MRC, IT is requesting approval of a related Lease Agreement with Xerox for 12 Xerox copiers. MRC is a subsidiary of Xerox and, as a standard practice, the company requires the execution of separate agreements for its services and leased copiers. The primary objectives for acquiring the expertise of a vendor to manage print services are as follows: *Reduce total cost to the City *Reduce print volume *Reduce burden rates (staff time consumed for managing print supplies & repairs) *Optimize device utilization *Streamline equipment maintenance and repair *Maintain high levels of user satisfaction Continuing with a managed print services model will allow the City to maintain its control and oversight of print usage, thus resulting in reduced operating costs associated with print output while still meeting business needs. In order to select an appropriate firm to provide the aforementioned services, a Request for Proposals (RFP) was issued on July 6, 2020 via the City website and posted on the PlanetBids website. Responses were required by July 20, 2020. The City received fourteen (14) proposals, but one proposal was disqualified due to not being responsive to the RFP. A review panel comprised of staff from the IT Division evaluated the thirteen (13) proposals received from qualified respondents in order to determine the vendor best suited to provide the services requested. A comprehensive, fair, and impartial evaluation of proposals was conducted in accordance with the specifications set forth within the RFP document. Established criteria were used in reviewing and comparing the proposals to determine the most suitable firm. At the conclusion of the assessment, it was determined that MRC was the most compatible choice for the award of the services agreement for Managed Print Services. MRC was the top ranked respondent due to their years of experience in the industry, exceptional qualifications, and their ability to offer quality technology and service at a competitive price. It is, therefore, recommended that City Council approve and authorize the City Administrator to execute a services agreement with MRC and the related lease agreement with Xerox. The proposed agreements have been reviewed and approved by the City Attorney' s Office. Fiscal Impact: The total combined not-to-exceed value of the agreements with MRC Smart Technology Solutions and Xerox is $96,666.66 per year for a three-year term, equating to a combined total contract value of $290,000. The annual expense for the proposed services agreement with MRC Smart Technology Solutions and Xerox has been included in the Information Technology budget for FY 2020/2021, and shall be budgeted accordingly for each subsequent year.

City of Vernon RFP No. Managed Print Services Version 1.0 2 Confidential Response between MRC Smart Technology Solutions & City of Vernon due July 20, 2020 We turn innovation investments into products and services that help our customers be more productive, profitable and sustainable. Our thought process is always about how we can simplify work, deliver more personalized experiences, and improve productivity through new technologies.

Scope of Work MRC, Xerox provides a proven methodology of assessment and analytics that utilizes the deployment of our 360 software apps to monitor client’s network devices to manage their printer/copier usage. We also conduct a site walk to pull local devices and gather invoices to understand your existing expenditure. We partner up with key departments like IT, Finance, and Operations to gather sufficient data in order to provide appropriate recommendations that are tailored and designed to the organization’s need. We work with end users to better understand their workflow and uncover their pain points. As a partner in the solution, we provide the feedback to our partner with real value add data. Our analytics help our clients to uncover the true cost of ownership of their operations with regards to printing cost, technology cost, and labor cost. We can also help to track Department Usage and Billing. MRC will also provide the following: • Maintain a readily available, accurate and up to date detailed list of all printing devices and their respective locations throughout the City’s departments/facilities • Provide quarterly usage reports for auditing (who is printing what and how much did it cost) • Provide a Citywide year end cost analysis that details total cost, costs by department, and includes a performance review along with recommendations to improve operations and reduce costs further • Control, monitor, manage, and reduce overall print costs for the City • Provide the ability to monitor print volumes by device and create incentives for staff to reduce print volumes City of Vernon RFP No. Managed Print Services Version 1.0 3 Confidential Response between MRC Smart Technology Solutions & City of Vernon due July 20, 2020 • Ability to expand or contract the overall size of document output fleet as needs change without penalties or refinancing of hardware and software (if applicable) • Service equipment on-site at the facility where equipment is located • Qualified technicians to handle multiple brands of desktop printers like HP, Brother and Lexmark • Perform all preventative maintenance services on all devices at the manufacturer’s suggested intervals • Provide full-service support for all printers during normal business hours (Monday– Thursday, 8 a.m.–5 p.m.) within the pricing proposed • Guarantee a loaner machine anytime equipment is down for more than 3 business days. The loaner will remain on site until the original unit is repaired or replaced. In the unlikely event that a loaner is not available, a new unit will be provided. • Provide a four-hour service response, 1-hour call-back, and 4 hours on-site. The 4-hour requirement is calculated from the time the first phone call is made for support to the vendor until the appropriately trained technician is on site. • Replace troubled units with a like unit until the device is repaired correctly without cost to City of Vernon whenever any device has four repeat service calls • Provide proactive vendor managed supplies alerts with help desk integration to initiate proper action • Provide proactive Vendor managed Break/Fix alerts with Help Desk integration Work Plan MRC strives to provide a well-planned and executed Implementation process for all Major Accounts. MRC has completed numerous large implementations within the State of California. It is crucial that once MRC is selected by the City of Vernon approval committee, MRC will complete a thorough physical walkthrough of the sites before the implementation. During the physical walkthrough, the assessment team validates location, department, contact information, space, electrical, network access and overall strength of the recommendation. Our assessment team will be led by the following individuals: Tara Hubsch (VP), Kirstin Maloney (Strategic Account Executive), and additional supporting individuals due to the scope of the project. MRC/ Xerox team of individuals will lead the implementation, to include a Major Account Sales Manager, Customer Care Manager, Logistics coordinator, Lead Analyst, and Lead Service Technicians and Company Certified Trainers. Coordination and timeframe of the delivery and implementation process is discussed thoroughly with the City of Vernon’s Administration team and agreed upon. MRC proactive service approach allows for a quick resolution with our 1-4-24 service response creed and remote desktop support. Our Service Call center is also trained to resolve customer issues remotely. Currently, 25% of incoming service calls are solved over the phone. This is done through remote software and superior training for our call center employees. By having the City of Vernon RFP No. Managed Print Services Version 1.0 4 Confidential Response between MRC Smart Technology Solutions & City of Vernon due July 20, 2020 opportunity to eliminate the need for a service call, MRC can maximize a company’s service uptime. Should a service call be required, the customer will receive a call back within 1 hour with an estimated time of arrival. The average response time will be within 4 hours. Resolution should occur at the time the call is placed. Most parts required are available within the technician’s car inventory. If a part needs to be ordered, resolution is still within 24 hours. Our copier technology also allows for a proactive service approach. Through our Smart Kits (CRU’s), the majority of the copiers’ key components (fuser cartridges, ink cartridges, print cartridges) can allow a customer to resolve issues within a few minutes and eliminate a service call all together. MRC also installs a software application we call the “360 app”. This application monitors all of the networked printers’ supply levels. When a networked device reaches the 20% threshold the customer will receive an automatic shipment of supplies. In addition, the 360 app will au tomate meter reads for billing/accounting. Also, each device will be tagged with a sticker which provides the equipment with an asset ID# and service/supply phone number. End Users can simply pick up the phone and place a service call when there is an issue and refer their asset ID#. Or calls can be placed centralized with your IT department. MRC will tailor a plan to meet their needs for placing service calls or ordering toner. Another key differentiator is that we meet with our clients every 90 days or at shorter intervals based on the needs of the City. A dedicated non -sales resource, Account Manager will prepare a Quarterly Business Review that provides quarterly volume trends, billing, service history, and reports. This meeting allows the client to verify the accuracy of the volumes.

City Council Agenda Item Report Agenda Item No. COV-310-2020 Submitted by: Veronica Petrosyan Submitting Department: Health and Environmental Control Department Meeting Date: September 1, 2020 SUBJECT Memorandum of Understanding with the University of Southern California (USC) for Corona Virus-19 (COVID-19) Vaccine Trial Recommendation: Approve the Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Vernon and USC, in substantially the same form as submitted, for COVID-19 vaccine trial. Background: On March 14, 2020, the City of Vernon declared a local and public health emergency in response to the increased spread of the coronavirus-2019 (COVID-19) across the country. As part of the U.S. government response, Keck School of Medicine of USC (USC) is enrolling volunteers in a multi-center clinical trial to determine if an experimental vaccine known as AZD1222 provides protection against COVID-19. The trial will also test if the study vaccine can reduce the severity of COVID-19 illness in those who become infected. One of the goals for USC is to enroll participants at the greatest risk of contracting COVID-19, such as those from the Latino and Black communities, those older than 65, and factory workers. Due to its high concentrations of factories and warehouses and large number of essential workers, USC identified the City of Vernon as a prime location to enroll participants by setting up a satellite location for the vaccine trial. As a satellite location, the City of Vernon will provide space and utility services for USC to set up two (2) stationary trailers to conduct the vaccine study. The City’s involvement with the COVID-19 vaccine trial would be a monumental effort that would be of great significance not only in the United States, but for the entire world. Staff recommends that the City Council approve the Memorandum of Understanding with USC to support the COVID-19 vaccine trial. The proposed Memorandum of Understanding has been reviewed and approved as to form by the Office of the City Attorney. Fiscal Impact: The satellite location for the COVID-19 vaccine trial will not pose a financial impact to the City of Vernon. Attachments: 1. MOU with USC CITY OF VERNON MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN CITY OF VERNON AND UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA PREFACE This Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) is entered into this September 1, 2020, by and between the City of Vernon and the University of Southern California (hereafter referred to as “Provider”).

One of the Provider goals is to enroll populations at high risk of acquiring or having complications of COVID-19 in specific industries such as healthcare and the meatpacking industry. The study entails a Phase III Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Multicenter Study in Adults to Determine the Safety, Efficacy, and Immunogenicity of AZD1222, a Non-replicating ChAdOx1 Vector Vaccine, for the Prevention of COVID-19. To support the study, the City of Vernon is collaborating with the Provider by providing space and utilities for two (2) stationary trailers that will use for the study. The study sponsor will supply the trailers via the Logistics Civil Augmentation Program (LOGCAP https://www.kbr.com/en/experience/logistics-civil-augmentation-program-logcap). All internal supplies to include personal protective equipment (PPE) will be provided by the study team.

City Council Agenda Item Report Agenda Item No. COV-317-2020 Submitted by: Daniel Wall Submitting Department: Public Works Meeting Date: September 1, 2020 SUBJECT Contract for Fire Station Remodeling Required for Transition to the Consolidated Fire Protection District of Los Angeles County (LA County Fire) Recommendation: A. Find that approval of the proposed action is categorically exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301 - 15332 for Class 1: Existing Facilities; B. Accept the bid from Fasone Construction, Inc.; C. Approve and authorize the City Administrator to execute a contract with Fasone, Construction Inc. in substantially the same form as submitted, in an amount not to exceed $547,034.72 for the required remodeling of Fire Station 76; and D. Authorize a contingency amount of $25,000 in the event of an unexpected changed condition in the project and grant authority to the City Administrator to issue Change Orders for an amount up to the contingency amount, if necessary. Background: On May 19, 2020, the Vernon City Council adopted Resolution 2020-12 authorizing the transfer of the City’s Fire Department to the Consolidated Fire Protection District of Los Angeles County (LA County Fire) for fire protection, paramedic and incidental services within the City. As part of the Agreement for Services By and Between the Consolidated Fire Protection District of Los Angeles County and the City of Vernon (Agreement), the parties agreed that any non-routine repairs in excess of $100,000 are major repairs and are the responsibility of the City. The City is obligated to make such repairs as identified by LA County Fire and agreed upon by the City Administrator. The provisions of the Agreement impose upon the City the obligation to conduct the repairs requested by LA County Fire in a manner acceptable and under the standards established by LA County Fire. LA County Fire has identified one-time conversion costs or repairs. City staff has reviewed the proposed repairs and will continue to work with LA County Fire to facilitate the necessary renovations required for each of the Fire Stations that will be occupied by LA County Fire personnel. Specifically, at Fire Station 76, there are five interior construction conversion items with a combined LA County Fire estimated cost of $666,250. These items are: *Privacy and Access Modifications *Turnout Room improvements *Kitchen Remodel *Bathroom reconstruction *Electrical Upgrades LA County Fire has identified Fasone Construction, a construction company that they have utilized in the past, to perform the repairs noted above since this vendor is familiar with the standards and specifications of LA County Fire. Fasone Construction provided a bid to the City of $547,034.72 to do this work; this is a savings of $119,215.28 from LA County Fire's estimate. As previously stated, Fasone Construction has performed work for LA County Fire in the past, is a county approved vendor, and has been regarded as a trusted partner in equivalent projects. The work proposed to be completed by Fasone Construction at Fire Station 76 in Vernon has been approved by LA County Fire's project management team, as plans meet the stringent project specifications set forth by the agency to provide standardized live/work environments for Fire personnel. Due to the highly specialized construction/rehabilitation requirements of LA County Fire and their endorsement of the firm, the selection of Fasone Construction is exempt from the City’s competitive bidding pursuant to Section 2.17.12(A)(2) which states that services are available from only one vendor for unique services. Staff consulted with the Interim City Attorney who confirmed that a direct award of this contract is permitted based upon the terms and conditions of the Agreement between the City and LA County Fire and other allowed exceptions under Vernon’s Municipal Code and Purchasing Policies. It is, therefore, recommended by staff that the City Council approve the contract with Fasone Construction in order to recognize the savings noted above and to fulfill the specific needs and requirements of LA County Fire. With the impending LA County Fire transition scheduled to occur in late October 2020, there is a limited window of time in which the City may establish a contract with a vendor directly, independent of LA County Fire. After November 1st, if such a contract is not yet in effect, LA County Fire will lead the effort in the construction/renovation project and all costs (including related administrative fees) will be passed on to the City. If the City opts to allow LA County Fire to coordinate the execution of the required construction, the City's opportunity to capitalize on any savings will be forfeited, and the project will be completed at a higher overall cost. The proposed contract has been reviewed and approved as to form by the City Attorney's Office. Fiscal Impact: An amount of $1,150,000 was budgeted in account 011.1049 for Fiscal Year 2020-2021 under "Misc Fire Station Upgrades for Transfer". The cost of the contract with Fasone Construction is $547,034.72, a savings of over $119,000 compared to LA County Fire's estimate for this work. Therefore, sufficient funds are available to cover the cost of this project. Attachments: 1. CS-1266 - Fire Station 76 Dormitory, Kitchen & Bathroom Improvements 2.
