City Administrator/City Clerk Ki V W O CITY OF VERNON COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT ON UNITED CARGO LOGISTICS, INC. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT TO OPERATE A TRUCK TERMINAL AT 2065 ROSS Street (February 17, 2000) United Cargo Logistics, Inc. has submitted an application for a conditional use permit to operate a truck terminal at 2065 Ross Street. The proposed operation will include the hauling and temporary storage of general products and provide pick-up and delivery services. They are proposing to generate 16 inbound employee automobiles and 20 inbound delivery truck trips to the site daily. The site was previously occupied by Postal Freight, Inc., another trucking company, that generated approximately 13 inbound employee automobile and 7 inbound delivery truck trips to the site daily. Prior to their occupancy, Southern Counties Transport, another trucking company, generated a total of approximately 30 vehicle trips to the site daily. The neighboring facilities have similar uses that are compatible with United Cargo Logistics, Inc. The number of traffic trips generated at United Cargo Logistics, Inc. is consistent with these sites. Bret E. Jessup Transportation, Inc. and Heitz Trucking, Inc. operate approximately 40 trucks out of their facility at 3375 Ross Street per day. New Willig Freight Lines located at 2043 Ross Street generate approximately 20 delivery truck trips out of their facility daily.

In addition to the trucks and vans there will be approximately 16 automobiles that access the facility daily during normal operating hours. Approximately 20% of all trucks will go South down Alameda to Slauson to Access the 110 Freeway and approximately 5% will use 37th Street to Santa Fe Avenue for Access to the City and the 10 Freeway.
