Environmental Review Documents
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), adopted by the State Legislature in 1970, establishes a process for identifying and evaluating the environmental impacts of proposed projects. The resulting environmental documents are provided to decision-makers to support informed, responsible choices on entitlement requests. Most discretionary projects are subject to this environmental review.
The CEQA process follows established statutes and guidelines set by the State of California, which are available for public reference on the state’s official website. The environmental documents shared here are intended to promote transparency and encourage community involvement in the entitlement process. Please note that only larger-scale projects requiring State Clearinghouse review will be posted on this page.
The following documents are currently available for public review.

Cargo Solutions Truck Warehouse Project
Project Description: The City of Hesperia (City) is processing a request to implement a series of discretionary actions that would ultimately allow for the development of a truck warehouse development (project) at the southeast intersection of Poplar Street and Three Flags Avenue in the City of Hesperia in San Bernardino County, California (APNs: 3064-591-17, -18, -12, and -13 and 3064-631-01). The project proposes development of two truck warehouse buildings and a surface parking lot on an approximately 20.32-acre site.
The City’s General Plan Land Use and zoning designation for the project site is Com/Ind Business Park (CIBP) within the Main Street and Freeway Corridor Specific Plan. The CIBP zoning designation is to create employment-generating uses in a business park setting. This zone is intended to provide for service commercial, light industrial, light manufacturing, and industrial support uses, mainly conducted in enclosed buildings, which will produce only a small environmental impact, such as noise, vibration, air pollution, glare or waste disposal. Permitted uses include commercial storage facilities, manufacturing, offices, repair shops, warehousing and wholesale distribution centers, and other similar uses. Additionally, the CIBP zoning designation would allow vehicle wash facilities with a conditional use permit (CUP). The entire 20.32-acre project site is currently undeveloped land. The project site is located in a semi-rural, lightly developed portion of the city with undeveloped land to the north; industrial, commercial, and undeveloped land uses to the south; the Interstate 15 (I-15) freeway to the east; and commercial and undeveloped land uses to the west.
Public Review Period/Responses and Comments: The IS/MND will be available for public review and comment pursuant to California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 15087. The City will accept responses and comments for 30 days, starting on June 18, 2025 to July 21, 2025. All comments must be submitted in writing; either in a letter or email.

Dara Industrial
The Project proposes the development of a single 750,000-square-foot industrial building. Of this total, 15,000 square feet would be dedicated to office uses associated with the industrial uses. The Project also includes two water retention basins to be located at the site’s northeasterly (0.6 acre) and southwesterly (2.0 acres) corners. The basins will reduce post development stormwater flows to levels similar to existing conditions. The Hesperia General Plan designates the Project site as Specific Plan (Main Street and Freeway Corridor Specific Plan). Within the Specific Plan, the site is zoned for Commercial/Industrial Business Park (CIBP) uses. This zone is intended to provide for service commercial, light industrial, light manufacturing, and industrial support uses, mainly conducted in enclosed buildings. The Project is conditionally permitted by the site’s existing land use designations. The Project does not propose or require any General Plan or Specific Plan land use modifications.
Public Comment Period: The Draft EIR and its technical studies are available for the CEQA required 45-day public review and comment period from July 27 through September 12, 2022.
