§ 65098.1.5.

(a) (1) Notwithstanding any other law, except as provided in Section 65098.1.6, any existing logistics use development in existence as of September 30, 2024, shall not be subject to the requirements described in paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) of, paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of, or paragraph (3) of subdivision (c) of Section 65098.1, as applicable, if a new sensitive receptor is constructed, established, or permitted after the effective date of this chapter. (2) Notwithstanding any other law, except as provided in Section 65098.1.6, if by September 30, 2024, a proposed expansion of a logistics use development is in a local entitlement process, then the proposed expansion shall not be subject to the requirements described in paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) of, paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of, or paragraph (3) of subdivision (c) of Section 65098.1, as applicable, if a sensitive receptor is constructed, established, or permitted after the effective date of this chapter. (3) Notwithstanding any other law, except as provided in Section 65098.1.6, if by September 30, 2024, a property is currently in a local entitlement process to become a logistics use development, then the proposed logistics use development shall not be subject to the requirements described in paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) of, paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of, or paragraph (3) of subdivision (c) of Section 65098.1, as applicable, if a sensitive receptor is constructed, established, or permitted after the effective date of this chapter. (b) (1) Any proposed new logistics use developments that require the rezoning of land and must undergo a municipal entitlement process shall not be subject to the requirements described in paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) of, paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of, or paragraph (3) of subdivision (c) of Section 65098.1, as applicable, if the start of the entitlement process for the logistics use development began before any sensitive receptor started its own entitlement or permitting process, unless the proposed sensitive receptor was an existing allowable use according to local zoning regulations. (2) During a logistics use development’s entitlement process for a new or expanded logistics use development, if a new sensitive receptor is proposed or established within the distances required by paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) of, paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of, or paragraph (3) of subdivision (c) of Section 65098.1, as applicable, then those distance requirements shall not apply to the logistics use development so long as the logistics use development was not already subject to those requirements prior to the new sensitive receptor being proposed or established. (c) The protection afforded by this section shall remain in effect from the time of the initial application submission through the completion of the entitlement process, including any necessary rezoning actions and through the development period. If no construction activity occurs within five years of entitlement approvals, the protections shall be waived.
