July 10, 1985 Mr. Victor Vaits, Director Community Services Department City of Vernon 4305 Santa Fe Avenue Vernon, California 90058 Re: Options Available to the City for Controlling the Expansion of Warehouses and Truck-Related Uses Dear Mr. Vaits: We have completed our review of the land use controls used by other jurisdictions for warehouses and truck-related uses. We have also incorporated the information from the land use survey completed by your staff into our background report. This report outlines the results of our analysis and our recommendations for introducing controls on the establishment or expansion of warehouse and truck-related uses. After you, the City Administrator, and City Attorney have had an opportunity to review this report, we would suggest that we meet to discuss it and agree on the direction which the general plan should take. Existing Land Use Patterns The more detailed information on the location and size of existing warehouse uses is shown on one of the attached maps. Warehouse uses are located throughout the City, but are more concentrated in the central and southeastern area between Fruitland and the Los Angeles River east of Soto Street and particularly east of Downey Road. A second map shows the lo.cation of truck-related uses, such as truck terminals, freight transfer stations, etc. Although these uses are scattered throughout the City, there are clusters of truck-related uses in the northern part of the City, and along Leonis and 46th Street east of Soto. Warehouse uses were divided into four categories based on square footage. While it is likely that many of the warehouses having less than 50,000 square feet of floor area are accessory to an industrial use, the larger warehouses are much more likely to be the primary use. These larger warehouses are of concern to the City because they generate so much truck traffic and contribute little to City revenues. Warehouses with 100,000 square feet or more are evenly distributed throughout the City. Those with 50,000 to 99,000 square feet are also scattered throughout the City, but there is concentration in the area between the Los Angeles River and Fruitland Avenue, east of Soto Street. 1028 N. LAKE AVENUE. SUITE 107. PASADENA, CALIFORNIA 91104. (818) 791-7682' (213) 681-2061 Mr. Victor Vaits -2- July 10, 1985 Traditionally, an increase in warehousing and trucking uses is seen as an indicator that an area is no longer suitable for more intensive industrial use. Although warehouses and truck terminals be considered industrial uses and restricted to industrially zoned land, they cannot compete with more intensive uses for the prime land and so are likely to locate in areas not suitable or desirable for other industries. Warehouses and truck-related uses can also be seen an interim uses in an area as it shifts from industrial to office and commercial uses. This typically occurs as a City grows and its downtown expands. If Vernon is viewed as a part of the Los Angeles regions downtown, that may be part of the impetus to change. The area south of the Los Angeles River and east of Downey Road has a number of problems which make it less attractive to industry than o,ther parts of the City: (1) Small lot sizes. Lots are typically 10,000 square feet or smaller . (2) Narrow streets. Access to the area and to individual parcels is hindered by the street system. Streets in the area average 55 feet in width, with no room for expansion. (3) Substandard water system. Because water service was extended piecemeal over time, the area has undersized pipe in places and flow levels generally below those required by manufacturing. Since this area is less desirable for manufacturing, it has substantially shifted over to warehousing--although most of the warehouses have less than 50,000 square feet and many are associated with small manufacturers. Truck Access and Circulation Using the information on turning radii for larger trucks provided by CalTrans and the Department of Transportation, and aerials of the City, we have checked each intersection to determine whether trucks could turn right or left without backing and maneuvering. The resulting map shows those streets in the City which are readily accessible to large trucks. They are: Bandini Blvd. Atlantic Avenue Downey Road Soto Street LeonisJDistrict Blvd. Slauson Avenue Pacific Blvd. Alameda Avenue Ayer Avenue Washington Blvd. Mr. Victor Vaits -3- July 10, 1985 Businesses which use the larger interstate trucks should be limited to these streets in order to avoid congestion. The City may wish to designate these streets as the interstate truck network and prohibit their use of any other streets within the City. Land Use Control Options Our survey of restrictions on industrial, trucking, and warehouse uses included not only Southern California jurisdictions but also major industrial areas of the north and east coast. In general, only those jurisdictions with little remaining vacant land and some concern about their tax bases have initiated land use controls for warehouses and truck-related, industries. There are two types or levels of control adopted: (1) Limiting such uses to certain areas consistent with General Plan and/or zoning land use designations. (2) Review and control of the specific location and facility design through the Conditional Use Permit process. Virtually every city contacted limits warehouses and trucking to areas zoned for heavy industry. Most had at least two classifications of industrial use (light and heavy industry) and some had as many as four. Currently, the City of Vernon makes very little distinction among industries other than to call out certain areas for junk yards, refineries, and slaughtering and rendering. The revised General Plan (and also the Zoning Ordinance) could delineate areas where these uses would be permitted. Conditional Use Permits were required for truck-related uses by a number of cities. The justification given (and the required findings before issuance of such a permit) were: (1) To insure adequate access and minimize circulation problems on local streets. (2) To ensure land use compatibility including appearance (screening and maintenance of improvements) as well as noise, odors, dust, vibration, run-off, and so forth. Only two cities require conditional use permits (CUP) for warehouses--Torrance and City of Industry. In both cases the CUPs are not targeted specifically at warehouses but apply to (in the case of Torrance) all industrial buildings of over 15,000 square feet or two stories, or (in the case of Industry) all industrial land uses. Either approach avoids the problem of distinguishing warehouses from other industrial land uses in terms of their impacts on surrounding uses, or the community as a whole. The rationalization for such a requirement is essentially the same as that for trucks: 1. e., ensuring '- Mr. Victor Vaits -4- July 10, 1985 compatibility of adjacent land uses and the availability of adequate infrastructure to support the proposed use. The City of Vernon could adopt either of these approaches, however it is doubtful that there would be much support for the suggestion that the City change overnight from its current minimal review and regulation to reviewing every change of use. Recommendations: 1. In the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, designate areas for specific types of industrial land use. Our analysis indicates that some areas are clearly unsuited for large warehouses and truck-related usesf Other areas are no longer suitable for heavy industry. These conclusions are based on lot sizes and infrastructure capacity as well as use patterns. One of the options for creating land use districts in the City must be agreed upon before proceeding with the General Plan. 2. Establish a conditional use permit procedure for all truck-related uses and warehouses over 50,000 square feet. Since warehouses of this size are more likely to generate a large amount of truck traffic and use the larger interstate trucks, there is a justification for the requirement. In addition, since these uses would be prohibited outside specific areas, the number 'of permit requests would be manageable. The draft ordinance which we prepared earlier can be easily adapted to refer to applications for conditional use permits in specific areas. It exempts warehouses associated with industrial uses. The key step will be agreeing on appropriate and desirable areas for each use. 3. Designate the ten streets shown to have sufficient size and intersection diameters as the interstate truck route. Prohibit interstate trucks on other streets. If you have any further questions, please call. We would like to set up a meeting to discuss land use options and controls for warehouse/trucking uses as soon as possible. I believe we are within 60 days of completing a draft of the General Plan. I am sure you look forward to the resolution of these issues, and successful conclusion of the project, as I do. Sincerely, ffl 1 (1 /0lttuUd r..l.. ~c /fnr- Donald A.

Urban & Environmental Planning October 8, 1985 Mr. David Brearly, City Attorney City of Vernon 4305 Santa Fe Avenue Vernon, California 90058 Subject: Redevelopment Dear Mr. Brearly: From our conversation, I understand that the City is interested in pursuing not only controls of less desirable land uses (truck terminals, for example) but possible methods of encouraging desirable industries to locate or expand their operations in Vernon. One of the methods that you wish to explore is the use of redevelopment powers as defined in Section 33000 et.seq. of the State Health and Safety Code. I agree with you that redevelopment would be a worthwhile approach to correcting the infrastructure problems which exist in some areas of the City and of encouraging desirable industries to stay or locate in the City. State law with respect to redevelopment has recently been changed to curtail the practice. 'Of designating vacant land for redevelopment. However, the changes will not affect the process in Vernon, which is completely built out. Based on our knowledge of the City, there should be no difficulty justifying the desianation of some if not all of the City as a redevelopment project area under the criteria set by the State. The advantages to the City would be several: 1. Any increase in property tax revenues for parcels included in the redevelopment project area would come to the City for use in the redevelopment project; and 2. Redevelopment agencies have a variety of powers under state law which permit them to design and carry out a range of incentive programs to encourage private investment in the redevelopment project area (including site assembly, financing, and public improvements); and 3. There is also a public relations advantage in that a willingness to use redevelopment signals to developers and businesses that the City is committed to maintaining a healthy business base. 1028 N. LAKE AVENUE. SUITE 107. PASADENA, CALIFORNIA 91104. (818) 791-7682. (213) 681-2061 - Mr. David Brearly -2- October 8, 1985 Since Vernon has never pursued this option before, the first step would be to establish the redevelopment agency or commission. Once the agency or commission is created and funded (generally via a loan from the City), the process of selecting and designating a project area or areas can begin. We have prepared a simplified schematic of the redevelopment process for your information. It is attached. The procedures are straightforward and the requirements for completing a legally valid plan are spelled out in lengthy regulations prepared by the State. Familiarity with. the regulations and procedures can facilitate the process, and we have assumed such familiarity in the schematic schedule. The General Plan, which we are currently invol~ed in updating, must be completed before the Redevelopment Plan can be adopted, according to State law. In addition, the General Plan process and the General Plan can be used to identify areas which meet the requirements of State law for designations as project areas and have potential for successful redevelopment. The General Plan process also generates the supporting data necessary to the redevelopment plan. The draft Background Report which you have been reviewing contains much of this data already. Completion of the General Plan will take much less time than creation of a redevelopment project and the two processes can run simultaneously. (The General Plan and Environmental Impact Report can be completed in approximately three months, once we have reached agreement on the approximate distribution of land uses to be embodied in the plan.) If the City is interested in pursuing redevelopment, we will be happy to work with you on it. We will also ensure that the General Plan is drafted to support the redevelopment process to the greatest extent possible. I hope that this answers some of your questions about the steps involved in redevelopment, and the relationship to the General Plan process. If you have any further questions, please let me know. We are anxious to proceed with the General Plan and excited about the possibility of assisting you with establishing a redevelopment agency and creating a project area. Sincerely, ~ Donald A.

At this.. time it is noted that there have been several changes in s ate law governing general plan content. In order to comply with state law :several elements in our General Plan must be updated. Victor Vaits has met and discussed with Mr. Donald A. Cotton of Donald A. Cotton Associates the updating of the city's general plan. Mr. Cotton was instru- mental in the preparation of our .present-plan and is familiar with our unique character. It is hereby r~comnended that authority be granted to engage-the services of Donald A. Cotton Associates for the purpose of updating Vernon's .General Plan. Thanking you in advance for your consideration in this matter. Very truly yours, Bruce V.

Vats, Director of Community Services SISBJECT; 11ERNON'`S GEP~~ERAL PLAN ~lernon`s General Plan was adopted in 1975.. Since that time there have been several chances in the State Law governing General Plan content. In order to comply with State Law several elements in Vernon's General Plan must. be updated, Irt:addition,the present plan does not address the changes in industry occurring throughout the region whereby -older heavy industrial plants are closing and are being replaced with warehousing. The analysis of the plan may indicate a desirability for the City to take advantage of State Redevelopment-Law or other State Laws to protect and encourage manufacturing i`n the City. Revision of the General Plan is a necessary precondition for such action. The updatinn of Vernon's General Plan was discussed with Donald A. Cotton Associates. Donald Cotton was instrumental in the preparation of our present plan and thus is familiar with Vernon's unique character. It is recommended that authority be granted to engage the services of Donald A. Cotton Associates to update Vernon's General Plan. UHV:ps i January 12, 1984 V-1i Tp: David B.

As you know, L .was Planning Director for Koeb,ig and Koebg during.-the development of your current General Plan.' As a result, I am familiar with the unique character of Vernon, However., ten years: have elapsed since that 'plan was ,prepared and there have been. changes both in the State law governing General Plan content. and to some degree in-the City ;of Vernon. In order- o comply with State law and .address. the new, issues which the City has identified as important, the" Plan should be .revised. .Since our discussions of last week, we have evaluated your current.-plan for adequacy given present State requirements regarding General Plan form and content. This was done utilizing the PLATO systeffi developed by the State .Office of Planning and Research. The results are attached. .Our evaluation indicates some shortcomings in six of the.nine mandatory elements. We understand that City officials and-staff are. finding that the ~lat~ does ztot addresB thQ -~~..i-ii --ndu~i~ry iahich are occurring :-nnt only in .~ernon but 'throughout the r-~gion ~--~pe°cifically zl~e eiaaa.ng .of older heavy,.i.ndustrial plants and their replacement with warehousing and non-manufacturing uses. Any revision of the plan should address the changing:, market for industrial, commercial„ and-warehouse space in the area and include polioies to .::protect Vernon's unique. place in the regional. economy. This analysis :and plan revision may indicate the desirability for"the City to take advantage of State redevelopment law or'other such State legislation to protect and encourage .manufacturing in the City. Revision of .the General Plan is a: necessary, precondition for such action. x028 N:'LAKE AVENUE ~ SUITE 207 • PASADENA, CALIFOAN1A91-.104 ~ (21.3)(818) 791-7682_• (213) 681-2061 9147 CHESAPEAKE DRIVE rSAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA 92123 i (619) 565-0407 Mr. Victor Vaits -2- January 12 1983. We are pleased to offer our services to the City to update and revise the General Plan. In addition to my previous experience with the City, our staff includes professionals wi h extensive experience in all aspec s of planning.: We are currently comp etng an update and 'reformat of the General Plan for the City pf Santa Maria and beginning a revision of the:Alhambra-General Plan. When this work is completed, the General .Plan-will be on the word;. processor 'for ease in updating and keeping recordsof amendments. - I have enclosed resumes and-a description, of our experience for your information. Based on our discussion, I have..;.al o_included a copy of ..our standard :contract for professional services and a schedule of our 'current hourly` billing rates. I wDUld suggest't]xat should you decide to update the Vernon general Plan, the first step would be to-meet o define the is-sues which''the City would like to see addressed in addition to meeting the requirements of State law. We could then prepare a detailed work program, schedule, and cost estimate. _I look forward to working with you on this project. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, Donald A. Cotton, AICP DAC:LH:mbc Principal BD:V:A &nclosures PLATO Eva'uation of the Vernon General,P3an Professional Servic,~s AgrsemE°nt .Brochure: General Planning Resumes ~ _ PLATO EVALUATION OF THE VERNON GENERAL PLAN The State Office of Planning and Research (OPR) has developed'a questionnaire' which can be used to evaluate the adequacy of a General Plana.. It is called the Planning Law .Analysis and Test Organizer (PLATO). As we discussed, we have applied the PLATO eva uaton system to the Vernon.General.Plan It revealed the following: Land Use Element: " ° This element should contain a more detailed discussion of the uses considered appropra~~ in-eathlanduse category., including the appropriate building density and intensity= This requrement_of State law dovetails with the City's concern. that. expansion of warehouse uses.~ai - the City represents an underutilizaton of the City's nfrastructur-~e (streets, water, sewer, electrical power, ,etc.). Revision of thus element to provide more guidance for the changes in use which are occurring and to comply with State law is desirable, and essential if th'e City is con emplating;exercising its redevelopment or other such powers under: State law. ° The element must contain a discussion of he potential for flooding and a map of flood-prone areas. Since the Los Angeles River runs,-through: the City, the .element must address the issues even though flooding is not a problem due to channe izaton of the water course through the City..:. Circulation Element: ° The circulation element m~~t cur~t-ain a -discussion of the public util:itie systems serving-the City, as well as the street system, railroad system- public transit, and any heliports in he area. Addtion'of this analysis could serve as a"foundation for-decisions on appropriate land ..uses. for different arena. ° Lnformation on circulation 'system capacity and problems is dated, particularly in light °of changing land uses. It should be updated in order to form an adequate basis ..for planning and permit approvals. Housing E ement: Although Vernon has a limited housing stock, and is really not `an appropriate >place for extensive residential development given the conflicts. with- Indus vial development, Sta a law requires that each 'housing element contain certain base data and analysis which justify its housing...policies~ 1 t__ °'The element'must contain more information on the existing. and projected population of Vernon. ° The element must discuss in more de-tail the constraints on housing:.:. production in Vernon and-..the interre ationships of Vernon and;surroundng jurisdictions with a larger residential base. ° T:he City's housing policies and programs should be :put in the format required by State law, including more detail on implementation and projected accomplishments,-and the reasons for lim.ting,residential development. Conservation Elements adequate Open Space Element, adequate " Seismic Safetq Element: ° The element does'not contain a discussion of the risks posed by older unreinforced brick and substandard concrete industrial buildings {if any) in the event of a major earthquake and how the City proposes to deal with-these risks. Noise Elemen ° Noise measurements are outdated and are not in he scale now required by" State law, ° Noise contours must show existing and projected noise lever f~rvm streets, railroads :a.nd:x~il yazds, and industry. ° The element must identify the, number of people exposed to 'noise ,levels excess of State standards for various use's. °'The element must,-contain a discussion of the noise control mea$e~~r-e~ which the City has included in its zoning :and/or building .regulations. This discussion can serve as a basis for the decisions on: appropriate-uses revising the Land Use Element._ ::Updating of this element will require development of noise readings, and noise contours by an'accoustic engineer, and addition of noise control policie's to -the General Plan and .Zoning Ordinance. Scenic Highways Element: :adequate 2 Safety Element: ° The element does-not discuss the adequacy of the City's water §upply and:' fire prokection'`services to control a mayor fire. We understand that there are no problems in this .area, and the element should state this.- ° The element does not :address the risks posed by hazardous wastes produced :and dispo ed of by Indust-ry in the City. _The existence of such risks in the City is a further reason to limit housing and: commercial development to that supportive of the manufacturing: base,; 3 • PROFESSIgNAL SERVICES AGREEMENT -:FOR UPDATING fiHE VERNON'rGENERAL PLAN '1.
