STAFF REPORT
ON REHRIG PACIFIC COMPANY
TO OCCUPY AN ACCESSORY WAREHOUSE
IN EXCESS OF 50,000 SQUARE FEET
AT 6250 BOYLE AVENUE
January 24, 2005
Rehrig Pacific Company (hereafter referred to as "Rehrig ")
is a plastic products manufacturer in the City of Vernon,
presently operating at 4010 26th Street. Rehrig is proposing to
expand its operation by acquiring an additional building located
at 6250 Boyle Avenue. The proposed site is approximately 98,000
square feet and will be used as an accessory warehouse for their
existing manufacturing facility. The accessory warehouse will
operate as an integral part of Rehrig's manufacturing process and
store goods produced in the City.
In order to comply with the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance
and operate an accessory warehouse greater than 50,000 square
feet in the M -Zone, a conditional use permit is required. As
defined in Section 26.3.5.3(j), an accessory warehouse is an
integral part of a manufacturing operation located in the City of
Vernon and storing goods produced in that operation.
1. GENERAL PLAN The proposed use conforms to the Zoning
Ordinance and the General Plan with the granting of a conditional
use permit. The site of the proposed use is located in the M-
zone, General Industrial. An accessory warehouse in excess of
50,000 square feet is permitted in the M -Zone with a conditional
use permit.
-1-
2. SITE The subject property is located at 6250 Boyle
Avenue. The property contains one building totaling 149,067
square feet in size. The total size of the parcel is 401,267
square feet. Rehrig proposes to occupy 98,000 square feet of the
existing building, which is currently vacant. The existing
facility is adequate in size, shape, topography and drainage for
the operation.
3. ADVERSE EFFECT The proposed use is surrounded by
industrial, warehouse, commercial, residential, and a school and
other uses which are compatible with the proposed use. No adverse
impacts from traffic, parking, noise, odor, dust, smoke, light or
glare, or risk of fire, infection or explosion are expected to
occur to the adjacent or abutting properties. Pursuant to Section
15301 of the California Environmental Quality Act, this project is
exempt from CEQA, because it is an existing facility.
4. ACCESS The project site, as proposed, will have access
to two driveways along on Boyle Avenue. Boyle Avenue, which is 80
feet in width and is adequate in size and pavement type to handle
the traffic generated by the operation. The site contains a
preexisting building that has not been vacant for a continuous
period of more than one year and Rehrig is not proposing to
undertake any structural alterations. Therefore, the owner is not
required to bring the building into complete compliance with the
automobile, truck parking, truck loading, and maneuvering
requirements of the current City of Vernon Comprehensive Zoning
-2-
Ordinance at this time.
5. VEHICLE MOVEMENTS The proposed site is located at the
corner of Boyle Avenue and Randolph Street. There are two
entrances into to the property site, all of which are located on
Boyle Avenue. Rehrig estimates that approximately 1 to 3 trucks
per day will deliver and pick -up product. Only three employees
from the existing warehouse and office building at 4010 26th
Street will be relocated to the 6250 Boyle Avenue building.
Therefore, due to the low volume of vehicular traffic the City
anticipates no impact on transportation system from Rehrig's
operation. The trucks routed to the subject site will travel
south on Indiana Street to Bandini Boulevard (West) to Downey
Road (South) to Slauson Avenue (West) to Boyle Avenue (South).
6. OPERATIONS Rehrig is an existing manufacturing facility
in the City of Vernon that is proposing to expand its operation
by acquiring additional warehousing space at 6250 Boyle Avenue.
Rehrig, manufacturers different types of plastic products and
will use the subject site as an accessory warehouse for the
storage of its manufactured products. The facilities operating
hours will remain 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.
7. STATE OR FEDERAL CONDITIONS All Federal, State, and
local regulatory permits shall be obtained as required for the
operation.
8. CONDITIONS It is recommended that the following
conditions be set on the permit to adequately protect the public
interests:
a. The facility shall be operated in accordance with, and
made to conform with all current codes, rules, and regulations
and subject to permit fees as adopted by the City of Vernon not
otherwise addressed by this grant of a conditional use permit.
b. All required federal, state, local and regulatory
agency permits shall be obtained prior to operation. Prior to

BURDEN OF PROOF STATEMENT FOR CONDITIONAL
USE PERMIT TO MAINTAIN EXISTING ACCESSORY WAREHOUSE
SUBJECT: 6250 S. Boyle Ave
Vernon, CA 90058
The site for the proposed use is adequate in size, shape and topography, including
drainage and landscaping
The existing site to maintain the existing warehouse is a relatively large, flat, and trapezoidal site
that contains 8.8 acres. The site currently contains a 149,067 square foot industrial building.
Rehrigh Pacific Company currently occupies 98,000 square feet of this building for warehousing
of finished plastic goods. There is also an 8,080 (4,040 square feet/floor) square foot office.
The site is adequately landscaped for the use for which it is intended.
This site is therefore, adequate in size, shape and topography to maintain the existing warehouse.
B) The proposed use will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or abutting properties in
terms of traffic, parking noise, odors, dust, smoke, light or glare, or risk of fire, infection, or
explosion.
Rehrig Pacific company has leased this facility for warehousing only. There is no manufacturing
on site. The proposed use, therefore, will not have an adverse effect upon adjacent or abutting
properties in terms of traffic, parking noise, odors, dust, smoke, light or glare, or risk of fire,
infection, or explosion.
C) The proposed use will be compatible with the permitted uses of surrounding and adjacent
properties.
The surrounding uses of the subject site include warehousing and manufacturing to the north and
east and residential uses to the south and west in the City of Huntington Park. The residences to
the south are separated by a railroad track on Randolph Ave. The proposed use, therefore, will be
compatible with the permitted uses of surrounding and adjacent properties.
D) The site has sufficient access to streets and highways, which are adequate in width and
pavement type to carry the quantity of traffic generated by the proposed use, and that the
routes which vehicles will have to follow to reach the site are adequate in width and
pavement type to carry the volume of traffic generated by the proposed use.
The site is located on the northeast corner of Boyle Ave and Randolph Ave, both of which streets
can be used as truck routes. There are two ingress /egress on Boyle Ave. Boyle Ave is a major
north -south arterial in the City of Vernon and Randolph Ave serves as city boundary between the
City of Vernon and the City of Huntington Park. The exiting warehouse generates
approximately three trips per day, served from our manufacturing facility and administrative
office currently located at 4010 E. 26th St in Vernon. The site, therefore, has sufficient access to
streets and highways, which are adequate in width and pavement type to carry the quantity of
traffic generated by the proposed use.
E) The site has adequate off - street parking and loading facilities.
The site contains 216 parking spaces, 10 truck parking spaces and 16 truck loading spaces. We
currently have only three employees at this location as is used only as our warehouse. The
existing parking spaces on the site can adequately serve us and the other existing tenant. The
site, therefore, has adequate off- street parking and loading facilities.
F) The use, assto location, operation and design, is consistent with the general plan, any
applicable specific plan and zoning regulations of the City of Vernon and all applicable
County, State and federal law, rules and regulations.
Warehousing over 50,000 square feet is allowed at this location within the City of Vernon
subject to an approved conditional use permit by the City Council. The warehouse use at this
site is consistent with the surrounding uses as well as the intent of the Vernon General Plan. It
also complies with the applicable zoning codes of the City, as well as County, Sates and federal
rules and regulations.
