Redlands Unified to vote on stadium upgrades, student travel plans and training contracts
Stay informed before decisions are made — here’s what’s coming up at this week’s Planning Commission, school board, and city committee meetings.
From City Hall to the classroom, local decision-makers have full agendas this week. The Redlands Planning Commission will revisit a proposed warehouse ban that could reshape industrial development citywide, while the Redlands Unified School Board considers stadium upgrades, student trips, and new wellness programs. Here’s a look at what’s coming up before decisions are made.
🚚 Warehouse ban back on the table
The Redlands Planning Commission will revisit a proposal Tuesday to ban new warehouses and logistics centers citywide while allowing existing facilities to remain in operation. The discussion follows months of debate over how to balance industrial development with residents’ concerns about pollution, truck traffic, and land use.
