General Plan Amendment for the Merrill Commerce Center Specific Plan / PGPA 18-003 and the Merrill Commerce Center Specific Plan I PSP 18-001

The project involves the development of two industrial business park buildings totaling 518,210 square feet on 23.27 acres located at the southeast corner of Eucalyptus Avenue and Grove Avenue within the PA-1A Business Park land use district of the Merrill Commerce Center Specific Plan in Ontario, California. The development is governed by the certified Environmental Impact Report (SCH# 2019049079) and must comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and its implementing guidelines, including adherence to mitigation measures, a mitigation monitoring plan, and findings of environmental compatibility. Key deliverables include the construction of the two buildings, a 500 square foot guardhouse, decorative screen walls, and comprehensive landscaping, all aligned with the approved specific plan. Inspection and acceptance occur on-site at the project location, with formal administrative acceptance processed at City Hall in Ontario, where the Lead Agency, the City of Ontario Planning Department, retains authority to verify compliance. The project applicant is Prologis L.P., with Kimley-Horn & Associates serving as the environmental consultant, and approvals are contingent upon fulfillment of CEQA obligations, including the adoption of a Statement of Overriding Considerations and public availability of environmental documentation. No traditional contract pricing, delivery schedules, or procurement clauses are specified, as this is a land use entitlement and environmental compliance process rather than a procurement contract. Payment and accounting details are not defined within federal contracting terms, and no contract type such as FFP or IDIQ is identified. Point of contact is Edmelynne Hutter, Senior Planner, with additional coordination handled by Sam Cho of Prologis. The submission process for environmental documents is conducted through the City’s Planning Department via physical or electronic means, with no fixed deadline or electronic portal mandated. No contract clauses, packaging requirements, inspection standards beyond environmental compliance, or socioeconomic certifications are applicable, as the focus remains on municipal planning and environmental review under CEQA rather than federal acquisition rules.
