Auto Lube Facility (CUP25-00001)

The City of Hesperia has approved Conditional Use Permit CUP25-00001 for the construction of a Take Five Oil Change facility located at 15621 Main Street, San Bernardino County, California. The project consists of a 1,515 square foot drive-thru building featuring three service bays on a 1.01 gross acre lot. Situated within the Neighborhood Commercial zone of the Main Street and Freeway Corridor Specific Plan, the development is scheduled to take approximately four months to complete, with phases including grading and site preparation, building construction, and final paving and landscaping. Environmental compliance was managed through a Mitigated Negative Declaration under CEQA, which determined that the project would not have a significant environmental effect. Key regulatory requirements include adherence to City of Hesperia outdoor lighting design standards and the implementation of a dust control plan submitted to the MDAQMD. Biological assessments identified the need for monitoring protected species such as the desert tortoise and burrowing owl, as well as specific mitigation fees and reporting for the relocation or removal of Western Joshua trees based on their height. Site-specific mandates also require clear marking of hazardous waste containers and the installation of signage prohibiting loud noise and unauthorized vehicle maintenance in the parking area.
