August 26, 2026 - Planning Commission Meeting

The City of Tracy Planning Commission held a meeting on August 26, 2026, focusing primarily on two key agenda items related to city planning and development. The commission reviewed and recommended an ordinance to the City Council that would add Article 35.5 to the Tracy Municipal Code, establishing new standards for warehouse and logistics facility development in compliance with California's AB 98. This ordinance aims to regulate warehouse locations, truck traffic, air pollution, and environmental impacts, with specific requirements for setbacks, truck routing, electric vehicle infrastructure, and green building standards. The ordinance will apply to new warehouse developments and expansions exceeding 20% of existing square footage, but not to previously entitled projects. The commission unanimously approved recommending the ordinance to the City Council. Additionally, the commission received an informational update on the city's General Plan update process, which will guide long-term land use, infrastructure, and community development through 2050. The update includes extensive public engagement and will address challenges such as traffic, housing, and sustainable growth. No procurement or contracting decisions were made during this meeting.
