Franklin Avenue (8328-014-040) 1158 East End Avenue (8327-024-012) Project Applicant: Enersmart Storage LLC Project Planner: Alina Barron, Senior Planner Council District: CC District No. 3 A request to determine that a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) Facility is similar to a use permitted by the Pomona Zoning and Development Code. The properties are 1474 E. Franklin Avenue (8328-014-040) within the Workplace District 2 zone and 1158 East End Avenue (8327-024-012) within the Workplace District 3 zone. The appeal case file is APL-000002-2026. Pursuant to the provisions of CEQA (Public Resources Code, Section 21084 et. seq.), the guidelines include a list of classes of projects which have been determined to not have a significant effect on the environment and which shall, therefore, be exempt from the provisions of CEQA. In compliance with Section 15061(b)(3), the proposed project is covered by the general rule exemption which exempts activities that can be seen with certainty to have no possibility for causing a significant effect on the environment. The project may be considered for the general rule exemption in that the proposed request is the consideration of a proposed land use under the Pomona Zoning and Development Code and is not granting the authority to establish a use. Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission uphold the decision of the Development Services Director denying DOS-000687-2025 and adopt PC Resolution No. 26-001. 26-1055
