The Rialto Planning Commission voted to approve a Conditional Development Permit (CDP) for a proposed 900‑square‑foot massage business called King Spa at 2012 North Riverside Avenue (Suite F) in Rancho Verde Plaza.
Planning staff outlined that the project sits in a C‑1 (Neighborhood Commercial) zone, and that a CDP is required under Rialto Municipal Code Chapter 18.6603(u). Staff described operating hours of 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., and explained the retail center context and the tenant space’s floor plan. Staff recommended finding the project exempt under CEQA §15301 (existing facilities) and urged adoption of Resolution (Exhibit E) approving CDP No. 25-0001 subject to conditions.
Staff highlighted several specific conditions intended to protect public safety and ensure compliance: police and city inspectors shall have access to the site to verify compliance (condition 2); Rialto PD’s compliance letter must be satisfied (condition 3); "a camera surveillance system shall be installed and shall be accessible and connected to the Rialto Police Department enforcement system" (condition 10); only the front entrance shall be used for patron access and locks are not allowed on massage suites except the office (condition 11); exterior windows must be kept free of signs or materials to permit surveillance (condition 16); and the commission may review the operation six months after approval (condition 24).
Mr. Pan, the applicant, attended with a translator. Commissioners asked if he and his staff agreed to the police‑recommended conditions, who would be on duty during daytime hours, and whether the on‑site manager could communicate with Rialto PD in emergencies; staff and the applicant’s representative confirmed there would be at least two staff on site and that the property manager and applicant would assist in emergencies.
A motion was made to find the project categorically exempt under CEQA §15301 and to adopt Resolution (Exhibit E) approving CDP No. 25-0001 based on the findings and conditions. The motion passed on roll call.
What happens next: The permit is approved subject to compliance with listed conditions; staff noted a six‑month review to verify compliance. Failure to comply could trigger enforcement or revocation per municipal code provisions.
