CARVANA STATEMENT
In the late summer of 2020, City of Pomona staff was contacted by representatives of Challenger Realty Pomona 1 and Carvana about the possibility of Copart Inc. and Carvana using a portion of the Fairplex fairgrounds for vehicle storage and the unloading and loading of vehicles during normal business hours. The representatives stated that there would be no live auctioning or vehicle maintenance functions performed at the fairgrounds. Staff was advised that due to the Covid Pandemic the Carvana operation was essential to the financial well-being of Fairplex. The City’s planning and economic development staff analyzed the proposed use. Planning staff advised Carvana that its proposed long-term use of the fairgrounds was not a permitted use and that various entitlements, including an amendment to the Specific Plan, would be required to permit the use. Staff further advised Carvana that the required entitlements were discretionary and would be subject to review and approval by the Planning Commission, which would also take into account the long-term vision for the use of the property. Carvana began using the fairgrounds as a parking lot around March 2021 without obtaining a business license from the City. In June 2021 the City began receiving complaints about the Carvana operations, including large transport trucks using residential streets, diesel fumes from the trucks, loud music in the early morning hours when trucks were delivering cars and vibrations from the heavy trucks transporting cars.
On August 3, 2021, the City sent Carvana a cease and desist letter. Carvana’s California legal counsel contacted the City Attorney on August 9, 2021 requesting a meeting to discuss a quick resolution of the dispute. As a result of this meeting, the following resolution has been reached:
- Carvana has agreed to terminate its operations at the Fairplex.
- During the next 30 days Carvana will begin to ramp down its operating hours and has agreed to immediately address noise issues by discontinuing the use of outside speakers.
- Within 30 days Carvana will cease the shipment of any additional inventory to the site.
- Within 45 days it will also cease the use of all single-car haulers which will decrease employees on the site by more than thirty percent (30%).
- Within 120 days it will completely cease all operations at the site.
The City is pleased to report on the successful resolution of this matter.

As Schools Reopen for In-Person Learning, Pomona Police Department Encourages Drivers, Parents and Students to “Go Safely”
Pomona, Calif. – As students and staff return to schools for in-person instruction, the Pomona Police Department reminds everyone to keep the safety of students in mind when traveling around schools.
This includes stopping for school buses. California law requires drivers to stop when a school bus is in front of them and extends its stop sign with flashing red lights. Drivers must remain stopped as long as the red lights are on. Drivers in both directions must stop on any two-lane road without a median or two-lane road with a center turn lane.
“Please drive carefully in school zones,” Corporal Thomas De La Vega said. “Let’s help keep students safe to ensure as smooth a transition as possible back to in-person learning.”
The Pomona Police Department offers the following tips for drivers, parents and students:
- Walk on sidewalks and use marked crosswalks, preferably at stop signs or signals.
- Watch for cars entering/backing out of driveways or leaving parking spaces.
- If you need to walk into the street to maintain social distancing, remember to look both ways for cars.
- Always look left-right-left before crossing the street. Make sure cars see you. Continue scanning for cars when entering the crosswalk.
- Do not listen to loud music or use a phone when crossing the street.
- Drivers: slowdown in school zones. Anticipate more foot and car traffic around schools for drop-off and pick-ups.
- Drivers should do their best to avoid blocking the crosswalk when making a right-hand turn
- Parents: Follow any school guidance related to dropping off or picking up students, as well as social distancing and face covering requirements.

Health Effects of Diesel Fume Exposure
In May 2002, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued its health assessment for diesel exhaust which found diesel particulate matter to be a “likely” carcinogen. Diesel particle exposure poses a unique threat due to its compound nature, consisting of a carbon core which acts as a magnet for numerous other toxins. The result is a hazardous mixture of fine particles, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and many other toxic metals and gases.
Fine particles in these fumes have been linked to a wide variety of serious health impacts, ranging from respiratory ailments such as asthma attacks to heart attacks, stroke, and premature death. A recent report of the Clean Air Task Force states that approximately 21,000 people die prematurely each year due to particulate matter pollution from diesel exposure. Approximately 3,000 of these premature deaths are due to lung cancer from these exposures, as diesel exhaust presents a lung cancer risk 7.5 times higher than the cancer risks of all other air toxins combined.
Diesel locomotives account for a significant portion of diesel emissions. The Clean Air Task Force report further states that occupational exposures to diesel fumes are among the highest environmental exposures, primarily associated with increased incidence of lung cancer. However, a study of railroad workers suggests that diesel exposure may also have caused serious and permanent impairment to the central nervous system.
Pomona Police Department to hold DUI / CDL Checkpoint and DUI Saturation Patrols this week
INCIDENT: Traffic Safety Checkpoint & DUI Citywide Patrols
DATE/TIME: Friday, August 27, 2021
Checkpoint: 9pm – 3am
Patrols: 7pm-3am
LOCATION: DUI Checkpoint at undisclosed location (DUI Patrols citywide)
UNIT: Traffic Services
Pomona, Calif. – Pomona Police Department will hold a DUI/Driver’s License checkpoint on 8/27/21 from 9.00 PM to 3:00 AM at an undisclosed location within the city of Pomona. In addition, Pomona Police Department will conduct DUI saturation patrols on 8/27/21 aimed at getting impaired drivers off the road.
DUI checkpoints and saturation patrols are done in locations with a higher frequency of DUI-related collisions and arrests. During the checkpoint, officers will be looking for signs of alcohol and/or drug impairment, with officers checking drivers for proper licensing.
In 2017, 1,120 people were killed in alcohol-involved crashes on California roads. In 2017, the Pomona Police Department investigated 127 DUI collisions which claimed 1 life and resulted in another 49 injuries.
Pomona Police Department reminds drivers that “DUI Doesn’t Just Mean Booze.” If you take prescription drugs, particularly those with a driving or operating machinery warning on the label, you might be impaired enough to get a DUI. Marijuana can also be impairing, especially in combination with alcohol or other drugs, and can result in a DUI.
Pomona Police Department offers these tips to ensure you have a safe night of fun that doesn’t involve a DUI:
- Always use a designated sober driver – a friend who is not drinking, ride-share, cab or public transportation – to get home.
- See someone who is clearly impaired try and drive? Take the keys and help them make other arrangements to find a sober way home.
- Report drunk drivers – Call 911.
- Hosting a party? Offer nonalcoholic drinks. Monitor who is drinking and how they are getting home.
Drivers caught driving impaired and charged with DUI can expect the impact of a DUI arrest to be upwards of $13,500. This includes fines, fees, DUI classes, license suspension and other expenses not to mention possible jail time.
Funding for these enforcement efforts are provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
