Document Description
The proposed project is a Conditional Use Permit to construct three "High Cube" warehouse buildings, with a total of 1,536,000 sq. ft., including 50,000 sq. ft. of office space, on a site that has a gross area of 71.7 acres. The percent of building coverage of the total site area is 48.8% and landscaping covers 15.2%. The project is located at the southwest corner of the intersection of Alabama Street and Pioneer Avenue, which are County maintained roads and provide access to the site. This project site is in the unincorporated portion of the County of San Bernardino in the East Valley Corridor Planning Area, in the West Redlands of Community area. It is not within the City of Redlands' Sphere of Influence. The County General Plan designates the project site as EC/PD Land Use District with an Improvement Level One (IL-1). High Cube Warehouse is defined as follows: "Warehouse/Distribution Centers are used primarily for the storage and/or consolidation of manufactured goods prior to their distribution to retail locations or other warehouse. These facilities are commonly constructed utilizing concrete tilt-up technique, with a typical ceiling height of at least 24 feet. Warehouse/Distribution Centers are generally greater than 100,000 SF in size with a land coverage ratio of approximately 50% and a dock-high loading ratio of approximately 1:5,000-10,000 SF, they are characterized by a small employment count due to a high level of automation."
