Unanimous vote. Zoning Ord. 0-2-86 Mayor Huntoon declared the Public Hearing open. City Clerk Ramos submitted the Affidavit of Publication and reported that no protests or objections had been received. Planning Director Aguilera reported the City Council previously approv- ed a cooperative agreement with the City of Rialto and counties of Riverside and San Bernardino, and contributed funds for the purpose of hiring a consultant to create a Specific Plan for the area known as the Agua Mansa Industrial Corridor. This area can generally be described as being the land west of Rancho Avenue, south of I-10, north of the Santa Ana River, and east of the westerly City limits. Mr. Aguilera continued the consultants prepared a Specific Plan and EIR which has had various Planning Commission public hearings, as well as public hearings by the counties of Riverside and San Bernardino, and the City of Rialto. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Specific Plan and the most relevant information is that which concerns itself with zoning designations and development standards, which are listed in Section 4.2 "Development Plan". Mr. Aguilera said the Planning Commission has observed that the Plan proposes very little actual change from the existing zoning to the proposed zoning, and those changes which will be of importance are - the area along Rancho Avenue currently zoned R-1, M-1, and M-2 will be changed to Industrial Park; the area south of Agua Mansa Road currently zoned M-1, FP -2/M-1, and FP -2/M-2 will be zoned for Agricultural since it is within the flood plain. Mr. Aguilera stated the environmental document attached to the Agua Mansa Industrial Corridor Specific Plan document has been reviewed by the Planning Commission and found to be adequate. The EIR report pre- pared by the consulting firm of Willdan & Associates identifies sever- al environmental impacts which cannot be mitigated, as outlined in Chapter 5, Section 5.1, beginning on Page 5-1. The consultants, how- ever, have prepared a list of findings and overriding considerations which is the vehicle allowed by law in order to find that an unmiti- gatable environmental impact does not prevent a viable project from being approved.
