Cal. Gov't Code § 65302.02

(a) A county or city that is located in a warehouse concentration region, as defined in Section 65098, shall update its circulation element, as required by subdivision (b) of Section 65302, to do all of the following on or before January 1, 2026:
1. (1) Identify and establish specific travel routes for the transport of goods, materials, or freight for storage, transfer, or redistribution to safely accommodate additional truck traffic and avoid residential areas and sensitive receptors, as defined by Section 65098.
2. (2) Maximize the use of interstate or state divided highways as preferred routes for truck routes. The county or city shall also maximize use of arterial roads, major thoroughfares, and local roads that predominantly serve commercial, agricultural, or industrial uses when state or interstate highways are not utilized. Truck routes shall comply with the following:
  1. (A) Major or minor collector streets and local roads that predominantly serve commercial, agricultural, or industrial uses shall be used for truck routes only when strictly necessary to reach existing industrial zones.
  2. (B) Trucks shall be routed via transportation arteries that minimize exposure to sensitive receptors.
(b) On and after January 1, 2028, all proposed development of a logistics use development, as defined in subdivision (d) of Section 65098, shall be accessible via arterial roads, major thoroughfares, or local roads that predominantly serve commercial, agricultural, or industrial uses.
(c) The purpose of this section is to ensure that logistics use developments are sited in locations that minimize adverse impacts on residential communities and enhance transportation efficiency. This is achieved by restricting logistics use developments to roadways that are suited to handle the associated traffic and that predominantly serve commercial, agricultural, or industrial uses.
(d) For purposes of this section, local roads shall be considered to predominantly serve commercial, agricultural, or industrial uses if more than 50 percent of the properties fronting the road within 1,000 feet of the truck entrances and exits are designated for commercial, agricultural, or industrial use according to the local zoning ordinance.
(e) The county or city may consult with the Department of Transportation and the California Freight Advisory Committee for technical assistance.
(f) The county or city shall provide for posting of conspicuous signage to identify truck routes and additional signage for truck parking and appropriate locations for idling and parking.
(g) The county or city shall make truck routes publicly available in geographic information system (GIS) format and share GIS maps of the truck routes with warehouse operators, fleet operators, and truck drivers.
(h) The city or county shall provide opportunities for the involvement of citizens, California Native American Indian tribes, public agencies, public utility companies, and civic, educational, and other community groups through public hearings and any other means the planning agency deems appropriate, consistent with Section 65351.
(i) The city or county shall make a diligent effort to achieve public participation of all economic segments of the community in the development of the changes required pursuant to this section.
(j)
1. (1) An action may be brought by the Attorney General against a jurisdiction that is in violation of this section. A city, county, or city and county found by a court to be in violation of this section shall be subject to any of the following:
  1. (A) A civil penalty of up to fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) every six months, accrued from the date of the violation until the violation is cured.
  2. (B) All costs of investigating and prosecuting this action, including expert fees, reasonable attorney’s fees, and costs.
  3. (C) Other relief deemed appropriate by the court, including equitable and injunctive relief.
2. (2) In determining the application of the remedies available pursuant to this section, the court shall consider whether there are any mitigating circumstances delaying the jurisdiction from coming into compliance with this section. The court may consider whether a city, county, or city and county is making a good faith effort to come into substantial compliance or is facing substantial undue hardship.
(k) Civil penalties collected pursuant to this section shall be paid to the office of the Attorney General. Upon appropriation by the Legislature, any civil penalties collected pursuant to subdivision (j), shall be distributed by the Attorney General and returned to the local air quality management district in which the civil penalty was imposed for the district’s efforts to improve air quality.
