CUP No. 2025-03 and Variance No. 2025-01 – McFadden and Fairview Development (2745 W. McFadden Avenue and 1001 S. Fairview Street) March 10, 2025 Page 7 4 8 3 7 Pursuant to Section 41-199.4(a), land uses requiring a permit from a regional, state, or federal permit to handle, store, emit or discharge regulated compounds, materials, chemicals, or substances, within 1,000 linear feet of a public park, school (K-12) as defined by Section 11362.768 of the Health and Safety Code, or property used or zoned for residential purposes, are subject to approval of a CUP. In June 2023, the Planning Commission denied CUP No. 2021-41 requesting approval for a service station for the property located at 2230 N. Tustin Avenue. The Commission determined that, among other reasons, the project did not address key topics, including toxic or noxious fumes; hazardous discharges; electromagnetic disturbances; radiation; smoke; odors; dust or waste; undue noise/vibration; and other objectionable features that can be deemed to be detrimental to the public health, safety or general welfare, or that can be damaging to the physical environment, neighborhood or community. In order to address the key topics that concerned the Planning Commission in 2023, staff ensured this project prepared the necessary environmental technical studies to ensure the proposed project would not be detrimental to the public health, safety or general welfare, or that can be damaging to the physical environment, neighborhood or community. In staff’s determination, the applicant’s request for a CUP for a noxious use will not pose a significant environmental risk to any surrounding sensitive land uses. As part of the project’s analyses, the City hired a consultant from the City’s approved consultant list to prepared technical studies that evaluated the key topics aforementioned. The evaluation included short-term construction impacts, as well as site operations after the construction is completed. Table 3 – Technical Studies and Findings Potential Impacts Exceeding Regional and State ThresholdsTechnical Study Prepared During Construction After Project Completion Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Assessment None None Health Risk Assessment (HRA)None None Noise and Vibration Impact Assessment None None Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Assessment The Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Assessment, including a Health Risk Assessment (HRA) (Exhibit 8) was prepared to illustrate any potential environmental concerns. The Air Quality and GHG Assessment used regional (South Coast Air Quality Management District) and State (CEQA and California Ambient Air Quality Standards) regulations and thresholds of significance when determining whether the new construction and long-term effects would negatively impact the neighboring community. The analysis and assessment conducted illustrate that the proposed project does not exceed any regional thresholds in producing construction relation emissions nor will it emit pollutants during
