Sunset Crossroads Specific Plan Amendment No. 26-0001
Description
NP Banning Industrial asked the city to prohibit ICE detention facilities, data centers, cold storage, and standalone battery storage in the 533-acre Sunset Crossroads Specific Plan. The commission recommended approval 4-1, and the City Council will consider it October 13 — but it only takes effect if the November 3 referendum passes.
Impact summary
If the referendum passes, the site can never host data centers, ICE facilities, cold storage, or standalone battery farms — locking in protections future owners can't undo without a new public amendment.
