Land Use: Distance Requirements for Warehouses

Pending the Governor’s signature, California’s AB 98 (2024 | CA), would require, with exceptions, that new warehouses be built on arterial roads, collector roads, major thoroughfares or local roads primarily used by commercial traffic. The goal of distance requirements for warehouses is to limit noise and pollution from neighborhoods and schools. The bill would also require warehouses to add landscaping screens and implement set backs for buildings.
