ANALYSIS:
Latitude Business Park, LLC, the owner of PM 37608, is proposing to construct 1,074,771 square feet of warehouse, industrial park, and office uses for light industrial land use. The project is located at the northwest corner of Tom Barnes Street and Temescal Canyon Road, east of Interstate 15, in the Light Industrial designation of the El Cerrito Specific Plan, as shown on Exhibit "A."
In compliance with Grading Ordinance No. 2568, the owner will enter into a Grading Agreement to secure the mass grading operations, which include drainage improvements. A cash deposit has been posted to guarantee grading activities and erosion control. The grading design conforms to the Grading Ordinance and is consistent with sound engineering standards and practices. The elevation design minimizes significant height and slope differentials from surrounding properties, while maintaining the City's obligation to protect the health and safety of citizens and property.
The owner, at a future date, will also enter into Precise Grading and Improvement Agreements with the City and post sufficient securities to guarantee construction of final grading, water, reclaimed water, storm drain, and sewer public improvements associated with the project.
