What is happening to the Lumber Yard?

The Project site has been owned by Triple H Properties, LLC since 1975 when the company acquired the land. Since then, the site has continued to operate as a lumber yard until present day. Triple H Properties, LLC, is now proposing to repurpose the site into a class-A industrial project. The approximate 9.59-acre Project site is in the central portion of the city of Huntington Beach, in the County of Orange (County), California. 

The site is located at 7600 Redondo Circle on Accessor Parcel Numbers (APNs) 159-302-06 and 159-302-07, south of Talbert Avenue, between Gothard and Beach Boulevard. 

The site is generally surrounded by industrial and commercial properties to the north, Terry Park and a townhome community to the east across Parkview Lane, single-family residential to the south across Taylor Drive, and the Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way (ROW) to the west.

The Project Site consists of one parcel of land comprising approximately 9.52 acres located on the south side ofRedondo Circle and the northwest corner of the Parkview Lane and Taylor Drive intersection within a mixed residential, commercial, and industrial area of Huntington Beach.

The Site is currently developed with five single- and two-story industrial buildings and is occupied by Reliable Wholesale Lumber, Inc. On-site operations consist of finishing and treating lumber for delivery of custom milled structural materials for building contractors. 

In addition to the primary structures, the Site is improved with asphalt-paved parking and lumber storage areas, portable containers for tire storage, a diesel filing station associated with a 10,000-gallon diesel underground storage tank (UST) located on the northwest of the property, an in-ground scale, two shed like structures located on the central portion of the property, associated landscaping, and drainage features.

The Site is bound by industrial properties to the north; commercial and residential properties, and a park to the east; residential properties to the south across Taylor Drive; and commercial and industrial properties to the west.

The Project site was undeveloped as early as 1896. In 1927, the site appears to have been developed for agricultural use, featuring three shed-like structures along the southern border of the property until 1960. From 1963 to 1972, the site appears to have been vacant. The site was then developed with the current lumber yard and associated structures in 1975and 1994 and continues to operate as a lumber yard in the present day. The property owner, Triple H Properties LLC, is has partnered with Matthew Biggs of Long Horn Equities, Inc. (LHE) to repurpose the site into a class-A industrial project. Both Triple H Properties LLC and Long HornEquities, Inc. are the Project Applicants. Currently, Land Use Designation: Industrial (0.75 FAR) Zoning Classification: IL (Industrial Limited)
