Perris Valley Storm Drain Channel Trail - Phase 2

The Perris Valley Storm Drain Channel Trail Phase 2 project, managed by the City of Perris Development Services Department, involves the construction of a trail extending from Nuevo Road to the South Perris Metrolink Station at Case Road in Perris, California. Under Addendum No. 1 to Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2351, the project incorporates specific design revisions to the southern portion of the trail. These changes include the realignment of the trail from the west side to the east side of the San Jacinto River Channel south of the I-215 freeway and the implementation of a low-flow Arizona at-grade crossing at the confluence of the 7th Street Channel and the San Jacinto River Channel. The project is governed by the California Environmental Quality Act, with approval granted on July 23, 2026. Key requirements for the project include strict adherence to adopted mitigation measures and a formal mitigation reporting and monitoring plan to ensure no significant environmental impacts occur. Kenneth Phung, Director of Development Services, serves as the primary point of contact for the agency. The project is classified under NAICS code 237310 for highway, street, and bridge construction.
