BACKG ROUND: At the meeting of January 10, 2001, the Commission addressed public comments regarding the applicant's request to allow retail use and additional time to comply with the outstanding issues. The Commission concluded the review and directed staff to set a public headng to consider revocation of the Conditional Use Permit. At the meeting of February 14, 2001, the applicant presented the latest information including plans to bring the existing parking lot up to code with assistance from the newly hired contractor. Since the meeting, the applicant has completed the upgrades to the existing parking lot including double striping the 14 parking spaces, landscaping, repaying, and re-striping the "no parking" area at the front of the building. The existing wheel stops were also relocated to the new parking area. The applicant has made a good faith effort in resolving the outstanding site compliance issues. The Commission also requested that the applicant present a schedule that would clarify their intent to process plans for the retail use of their properly. ANALYSIS: Staff has not yet received a project schedule or a phasing plan for the ultimate site improvements desired by the applicant. Staff, the applicant and the contractor have met on the issues and staff anticipates receiving a schedule and phasing plan on Tuesday, February 27, 2001. Since staff was unable to review it for this report, an oral report will be given at the Planning Commission meeting. If the applicant continues to make a good faith effort in completing their Conditional Use Permit (CUP) Application, staff would support a 60-day continuance of this revocation hearing to allow the applicant additional time to complete his application for retail use. The application will be a non- construction CUP application for retail use, and therefore, the City Planner will be the headng officer for the request unless otherwise directed by the Planning Commission. The phasing plan and schedule will be considered in conjunction with their Conditional Use Permit application. If within the next 60 days the applicant is unable to successfully complete the CUP application process the matter of revocation would come before the Planning Commission again at the end of April. ITEH A PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT REVIEW OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 98-08 - BASELINE BARGAIN CENTER PageFebruary2 28,2001 CORRESPONDENCE: This item was originally advertised as a public hearing in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were mailed to all property owners within a 300-foot radius of the project site. The Planning Commission has continued the public hearing without further notice. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Corr~mission review the progress of the project and allow the applicant 60 days to complete their processing of a CUP application for retail use and that this revocation hearing be continued to April 25, 2001. Respectfully submitted, Brad Buller City Planner BB:EW\jc Attachments: Exhibit "A" - Approved minutes of January 10, 2001 Exhibit "B" - Adopted Resolution 98-06 for CUP 98-08 team worked hard and that the project as presented is acceptable. He noted that this is a property and the developer made exceptional efforts to bring the project to this point, he would approve it right now but he added that Alternative #3 is not acceptable. Motion: Moved nnerino, seconded by Stewart to continue Variance 00-09 and Environmental Assessment ment Review 00-47 (Tract 10035) to the January 24, 2001 meeting to allow staff the ~C&Rs. Motion carried by the following vote: AYES: MANNERINO, . STEWART, TOLSTOY NOES: NONE ABSENT: MAClAS, - carried The Planning Commission recessed from 9:20 p.m. PUBLIC COMMENTS Jim Peugh, the Treasurer from the Orchard Meadows Homeowners' addressed the Planning Commission about the large retail box develo 3f Foothill Boulevard and Vineyard Avenue. He reported that in response to the EIR, the homeowners had several concerns: 1) A possible loss in property value because type of development proposed and that it is his belief the area is designated for residential 9nt, 2) Traffic impacts, and 3)Light and glare that will be caused by the new development. COMMISSION BUSINESS H. REVIEW OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 98-08 - BASELINE BARGAIN CENTER - A periodic review of the business operation located at 9456 Roberds Street- APN: 202-092-008. Emily Wimer, Assistant Planner, gave the staff report and noted that she had received a letter from Lora Iftikhar (the applicant) just prior to the meeting. The letter cites the applicant's perspective on their efforts to be in compliance and their desire to continue operating their retail business even if all the requirements have not been met. Commissioner Mannerino confirmed that at this hearing the Commission decides if we will have a Revocation Hearing and that the Commission does not decide upon revocation at this time. Ms. Wimer indicated that is correct. Chairman McNiel asked if this is a public hearing. Brad Buller, City Planner explained that it is and that this Evidentiary Hearing allows evidence to be presented in regard to the operation of the Conditional Use Permit and that the Planning Commission is to decide if enough evidence is presented to warrant a Revocation Headng at a later date. Chairman McNiel opened the public hearing. Planning Commission Minutes -14- January 1 O, 2001 Lord Iftikhar stated she is the applicant and that she and her husband own and operate the Baseline Bargain Center. She indicated that some measures have been taken since the City issued a Business License Correction Letter in July of 1999. Ms. Iftikhar noted that more parking area has been purchased and is in escrow, the temporary parking area has been stripped and "No Parking" signs have been posted, and that they are working towards compliance to gain a retail CUP. She noted that she felt the cimumstances are extenuating such as: A misunderstanding at the Building and Safety Counter regarding the stamp on their plans which indicated "No Permit Required," Personal savings used to open the business, her husband's lack of understanding, communication, and detail in the process of obtaining a CUP and their unwillingness to give up their income by closing the store during the compliance process. She added that they have been overwhelmed with the complicated CUP process and yet she feels with guidance they can make reasonable financial investments to come into compliance for a retail CUP. She requested more time to meet the requirements. Commissioner Stewart asked if Ms. Iftikhar owns her property. Ms Iftikhar indicated she does and that the property purchased for the additional parking is ready to close escrow. Mr. Buller noted that the copy of the Resolution of Approval for their operation specifically notes that it is for warehousing only and indicates any other use for the property would require a new CUP. He added that the parking requirements are also specified in the resolution and that the City has tried to get them to comply for more than a year. Mr. Buller noted that Mr. Iftikhar was asked at that time if he understood the requirements and he said "yes." Mr. Buller added that this was also explained to their architect. Mr. Buller assented to the fact that improvements of this property for a retail business are costly and that it is'likely they hoped to "phase in" the improvements along with running a retail business. Mr. Bulier then stated that the only issue tonight before the Commissioners is whether there is enough evidence to bring the item back for a Revocation Hearing. Norm MacKenzie, Executive Director of the Rancho Cucamonga Chamber of Commerce stated he has met with Mr. Buller and the Iftikhars to help them move in the right direction. He noted that he feels the Iftikhars are contributing to the community and although they were ignorant to the process, he felt they had made progress towards compliance. He voiced his support and suggested they be given a time line to get them in compliance. Chairman McNiel interjected that in reality, the City has thousan,~ls of small businesses that have complied with the process and that when someone else does not comply either because of ignorance or intentionally, is that fair to those who do. Mr. MacKenzie agreed that it is not fair and it is our job to help them get in compliance and to set the code of ethics in business practices. He noted that he became involved late in the process. Chairman McNiel closed the public hearing. Commissioner Tolstoy asked Mr. Buller if the applicant is aware of the costs that may be involved to bring the Roberds Street and parking up to City standards. Mr. Buller stated he has asked Mr. Iftikhar if he can comply with the parking requirements and he does not give a straight answer. Commissioner Mannerino stated that the issue is the evidence and the fact that they hold a permit in violation by running a retail store. He suggested they come into and they admit they are compliance and then set a time line to meet our parking standards for a retail use. Planning Commission Minutes -15- January 10, 2001 Commissioner Stewart asked the applicant to bring with them their future plans and that she is interested in their vision for their business. She expressed concern and doubt that the issues on Roberds Street can be overcome. She encouraged them to work with staff. Chairman McNiel voiced his agreement for the applicants to work with staff and that staff will help them wherever possible. Motion: Moved by Mannerino, seconded by Tolstoy to bring the item back to the Planning Commission for a Revocation Hearing at the soonest available date as an advertised public hearing. Motion carried by the following vote: AYES: MANNERINO, MCNIEL, STEWART, TOLSTOY NOES: NONE ABSENT: MACIAS, - carried ADJOURNMENT Motion: Moved by Mannerino, seconded by Stewart to adjourn. The Planning Commission adjourned at 9:55 p.m. to a workshop to discuss Tentative Tract 15794 - American Beauty Development Co.

BASELINE BARGAIN CENTER - A review of property phasing plan to support Conditional Use Permit for the operation of a retail establishment in the General Commercial District, located et 9456 Roberds Street , -- APN: 202-092-008. PHASE ONE Development of on-site parking for 9456 Roberds Street -.. 14 spaces (as required by CUP 98-08). Landscape/Irri.qation: Landscape planters have been completed with an automatic irrigation system that provides adequate coverage and irrigation. The landscaping includes 15-cjallon trees, and 5-gallon shrubs. Cement curb-style landscape planter perimeters have not yet been completed pending improved weather conditions. The cement planter perimeters will be completed upon the 2nd or 3rd day upon the cessation of the rain (a day or two allowed for the soil supporting the, cement to dry out from rain saturation). Security Gate: A decorative wrought-iron security gate has been installed at the parking lot entrance according to approved plan specifications. Parkin,q Lot Space Stripin(~: The parking lot space striping has not yet been completed because of rainy weather. At least 4 complete~ rainless days are required to appropriately apply the slurry material, allow it to dry completely, and correctly apply the space striping. Unfortunately, we have not had 4 completely rainless days to accomplish this since February 14, 2001. However, upon the first available forecast of several consecutive days without rain our intention is to pressure-wash the parking lot (day one), slurry the parking lot and Roberts street frontage (day two), allow slurry to completely dry/adhere (day three), and perform space striping (day four). Parkin.q Headers: The parking headers have now been removed from the Roberds : Street frontage, and will be installed in the parking lot during completion of the , slurry/spacing project (pending improved weather). Parkin(~ Sic~naRe: "No Parking" signage will be posted on the Roberds Street frontage following the completion of the slurry/striping project (pending improved weather).

BACKGROUND: Last November, the Planning Commission recommended approval of the related land use changes (General Plan Amendment 98-02, Victoria Cornmunity Plan Amendment 98-02 and Etiwanda Specific Plan Amendment 98-02) to the City Council. On December 19, 2000, the City Council approved the land use changes. As a follow up to the land use changes, the applicant submitted the above applications for the next level of review for the ¥ictoda Arbors project. They are requesting approval of the Development Agreement, Development Review for the Victoda Arbors Master Plan, a Tentative Parcel Map, and a Tentative Tract Map. Staff has been working closely with the applicant by meeting weekly with their team to assist them in preparing a plan that best meets the City's requirements. The applicant has been very cooperative and accommodating. The project schedule, however, is very aggressive. The Planning Commission has conducted three workshops with the applicant to review their development proposal on January 10, January 24, and February 14, 2001. Minutes of the workshops are attached for reference and as Exhibit "A." PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: A. Surroundin.q Land Use: North of Base Line Road Existing single-family homes, commercial center, and undeveloped/vacant land. South of Foothill Boulevard - Undeveloped/vacant lands East of Etiwanda Avenue Undeveloped/vacant lands West of Day Creek Channel- Utility corridor and single-family homes (the Rochester Tract) B. General Plan Desi.qnations: Project Site Mixed UseNictoda Community Plan North of Base Line Road Low-Medium Residential (4-8 dwelling units per acre), and Medium Residential (8-14 dwelling units per acre) of the Victoda Community Plan South of Foothill Boulevard - Regionally Related Commemial of Victoda Community Plan East of Etiwanda Avenue Low-Medium Residential (4-8 dwelling units per acre) and Office Park/Etiwanda Specific Plan West of Day Creek Channel- Flood Control, Utility Corridor, and Low-Medium Residential (4-8 dwelling units per acre}, C. Site Characteristics: The project site is part of a larger Victoda master planned community. The site is undeveloped and generally fiat and slopes to the south. It contains Iow growing vegetation. South of Base Line Road on the project site is a drainage channel and outlet with an associated drainage basin. A 1.4-acre wetland is associated with the drainage. PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DA 00-04, DR 01-04, TPM 15641, TTM 15974 - AMERICAN BEAUTY DEVELOPMENT February 28, 2001 Page 3 ANALYSIS: This section of the report will summarize and analyze the individual entitlement applications as it relates to the Victoria Arbors project. A. Development Aqreement 00-04: A Development Agreement is a contract between the City and the applicant. A Development Agreement is beneficial to both the City and the applicant. The benefits for the City include assurance that the major streets such as Day Creek Boulevard, Base Line Road, Church Street, Victoda Park Lane, and amenities to the community such as open space, parks, and a school will be built. In this case, the City will further get assurance that the applicant will sell approximately 55 acres to the City, which will facilitate the development of the regional center. In turn, the City assures that the applicant can develop and complete their project according to the approved Master Plan for a longer period of time than a normal tentative tract map. Subsequent projects such as Development Reviews for house products or commemial development within the Master Plan are still subject to the City's normal discretionary review process. The City Attorney is in the process of reviewing the Development Agreement and will forward the final version for the Commission's review at the meeting. D. Victoria Arbors Master Plan - DR 01-04: The proposed project is within the last village of the Victoria Community Plan. A condition of approval for changing the land use for this village to a Mixed Use Zone last December requires that the applicant create a Master Plan with the submittal of a subdivision map. The master plan entitled "Victoria Arbors Master Plan" serves as a zoning code for guiding development within the project area. The document establishes an overall land use arrangement under a Mixed Use zone and a design theme that creates a unique identity for the Arbors Village. It contains site planning, streetscapes, community entry design, amhitectural and house plotting standards and guidelines supplemented by colorful pictures that illustrate the design concepts. There is language in the master plan that requires master planning for any commemial development adjacent to the existing winery property. The master plan also shows special village features such as an elementary school, a neighborhood park, greenway buffedng and paseos. At the January 24th workshop, the applicant presented the concept of the Master Plan to the Planning Commission, and again on February 14th, the Planning Commission conducted a second design review workshop on the master plan. The Commission supported the concept and the format of the master plan document. The Commission directed the applicant to continue to work with staff in fine-tuning the text and the graphics in the document to ensure that the vision of creating an up-scale, high quality, and unique residential village, is carried throughout the plan. A condition of approval requiring the final version including all the document refinements be reviewed and approved by City Planner has been included. E. Tentative Parcel Map 15641: The Tentative Parcel Map is intended to create large parcels for the purposes of financing, create parcels that follow the Master Plan Land Use and Circulation pattern, and create parcels that will be sold to the City under the terms of the Development Agreement. F. Tentative Tract Map 15974: The applicant also proposes a residential subdivision of 554 single family lots and a phasing plan as shown in Exhibit "D." On January 10th, the Planning Commission conducted a design review workshop on the Tentative Tract Map and the phasing plan. The subdivision design and phasing plan complies with the Victoria Arbors Master Plan PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DA 00-04, DR 01-04, TPM 15641, TTM 15974 - AMERICAN BEAUTY DEVELOPMENT February 28, 2001 Page 4 and all applicable City policies and regulations. The propo=sed maps do provide alternative development layouts for several "not a part" parcels that are within the project area. Staff has placed conditions of approval for the necessary public improvements for each phase of development. A condition of approval has also been placed to ensure the completion of the proposed park pdor to issuance of building permits for morE: than 50 percent of the total lots. G. Technical Review Committee: Staff conducted a combined Technical Review and Grading Committee review on January 24, 2001. All special require~rnents pertaining to the Tentative Tract Map, Tentative Parcel Map and the Master Plan are included in the attached Resolutions of Approval, and all standard requirements have been identified in the Standard Conditions of Approval. H. Trails Committee: The Trails Committee reviewed the proposed trail and greenway system within the Victoria Arbors Village at their January 24th meeting. The Committee supported the proposed trail system and made recommendations to improve the design. Their recommendations have been incorporated into the Master Plan document or placed as conditions of approval. I. Park and Recreation Commission: The Park and Recreation Commission has participated in the review of the location of the park dudng the review of the land use change. At their October 19, 2000, meeting, the Park and Recreation Commission reviewed and recommended approval of the location of the park with the condition that the design be subject to their review. The applicant has continued to work with the Park Development staff to accomplish this. J. Environmental Assessment: An Environmental Impact Review (EIR) for the land use amendments associated with Victoda Arbors was certified as adequate and complete on July 7, 1999. An addendum to the EIR, along with a Statement of Findings and Overriding Considerations was adopted on December 20, 2000. An Initial Studywas prepared to address the specific mitigation and environmental impacts of the Development Agreement, the Master Plan, the Tentative Parcel Map and the Tentative Tract Map. According to the City Attorney, a Mitigated Negative Declaration is not necessary because the certified Final EIR covers the proposed project and that there are no more impacts which have not been identified in the EIR. Based on Section 15183 of the Califomia Environmental Quality Act, an addendum to the EIR would suffice. The City's environmental consultant has modified the environmental information as an addendum to the EIR, which is attached to the report as Exhibit "F." Therefore, the issuance of a Mitigated Negative Declaration and a Notice of Determination are not required. CORRESPONDENCE: This item was advertised as a public headng in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted with three, 4-foot b3/8-foot public hearing signs, and notices were mailed to all properly owners within a 1,000 foot radius of the project site. PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DA 00-04, DR 01-04, TPM 15641,TTM 15974 - AMERICAN BEAUTY DEVELOPMENT February 28,2001 Page 5 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Planning Commission recommend approval of the Development Agreement to the City Council through the adoption of the attached Resolution, and staff recommends the Planning Commission approve Development Review 91-04 for the Master Plan, Tentative Pamel Map 15641 and Tentative Tract 15974 through the adoption of the attached Resolutions with Conditions.

VICTORIA ARBORS - AMERICAN BEAUTY - A review of the Master Plan for residential development within a project known as Victoria Arbors. Brad Bullet provided an introduction and explained the purpose of the meeting. He indicated that since the Commissioners received a copy of the Master Plan document as they entered the room, the applicant would provide an orientation and description of the Master Plan and the Commission would be asked only for comments as related to the presentation. Bob LaCoss, the applicant's representative, provided a presentation of the Master Plan in a chapter- by-chapter overview. He stated the predominant theme of the Master Plan is "Wine Country" and this Master Plan will be the guideline used to judge all future Development and Design Review applications. Commissioners Macias, Mannerino, Tolstoy, and Stewart indicated that the overall direction of the Master Plan was acceptable. They thought the neighborhood elements as proposed by the applicant, including front porches within 10-feet of the front right-of-way, should result in a neighbor- fdendly environment. They noted garage doors are always to be set back a minimum of 20 feet, and often much greater, as shown in the Site Planning concepts. They observed that standard street sections will be used (36-feet curb to curb); however, various design elements will be used to create the effect of a narrowed streetscape. Commissioner McNeil was more skeptical of the neighborhood concept. He expressed concerns that such neighborhoods would be crowded and congested with small front setbacks and street parking encouraged. Commissioner McNeil encouraged the addition of the wide/shallow lot concept to the mix, which is not currently represented in the Master Plan. The applicants responded to the Commissioners by expressing that they are trying to incorporate many of the New Urbanism concepts that are being encouraged in new communities. In order to allow staff and Commission additional opportunity to review the details of the Master Plan, a subsequent workshop was tentatively set for February 14, 2001 to complete review and discussion of the Master Plan.

VICTORIA ARBORS - AMERICAN BEAUTY - A review of the Master Plan for residential development within a project known as Victoria Arbors. Brad Buller, City Planner, provided an introduction and explained the purpose of the meeting. He indicated that the Commissioners had already received a copy of the Master Plan document. Nancy Fong, Senior Planner, presented the staff report and listed the remaining issues for discussion and direction from the Commissioners. Bob Lacoss, the applicant's representative, stated they were willing to work with staff to address issues identified by staff. The consensus of the Commission was as follows: 1. Central Spine Street. Change the name to Arbor Lane. Reduce the depth of the left turn lane as much as needed to be safe. Special streetscape to create a unique boulevard through increasing the use of hardscape and lawn and closer spacing of trees. 2. Location of Victoria Park Lane trail to Central Spine Street. Directed the applicant to work with staff to move the trail southerly along the wetland to connect to the Central Spine Street. 3. Directed the applicant to add design criteria and a requirement for master planning of commercial development adjacent to the winery. 4. Directed the applicant to add language referencing the block south of Church Street, west of Day Creek and north of Foothill Boulevard to follow the desien, standards of the future regional center master plan. 5. Directed applicant to modify the Architectural Guidelines section of the Master Plan as follows: · Add strong design language to ensure that builders understand the expectations of following the quality architectural standards of house products. · Stronger language to require architectural elements. · 2-story house products with no roof variation should be discouraged. · Establish a minimum depth (8 feet) and square footage for porches and balconies. · All houses shall have balconies and porches. Provide a percentage that use courtyards and trellis instead of porches. Staff suggest 30 percent maximum. · Add criteria for a hierarchy of fencing design. · Plot 75% of the houses with alternative garages instead of front-on, with provision to reduce the percentage to 60 if the front-on garages are architecturally treated. 6. Directed the applicant to work with staff in addressing lot layouts and master planning for several areas of the tentative tract. PUBLIC COMMENTS There were no public comments at this time.

SETTING The Village of Victoria Arbors is a very special place in Rancho Cucamonga. It will include a regional commercial center as well as residential neighborhoods. This center will become the City's "downtown," - the commercial heart of the City. Victoria Park Lane, the unique "road within a park' containing bicycle and hiking trails, that connects all of Victoria, culminates in Victoria Arbors. The historic Elena (now Filippi) Winery is located here. It is important that all parts of this Village, including residential neighborhoods, reflect an overall design theme and project the unique identity of Victoria Arbors. To accomplish this goal, Victoria Arbors is planned as a unique, multi-use community with an overall design theme of "Wine Country." It will have a comprehensive trail and open space system that connects residential neighborhoods to a central school-park, its historic winery and a regional center with a town square and village green. ~I~e Cucamonga Valley bas a long history in vineyards and wineries. In the early Victoria Arbors is the remaining village of the 1920's, it was borne to the largest vineyard Victoria Community Plan. The other three villages, in the u~orld - over 6,000 acres. In 1995, Cucamonga Valley was d~signated as an Victoria Groves, Victoria Vineyards and Victoria approved Viticulture Appellation, by the Windrows are built-out. Each of the four villages Department of the Treasury (BATE). has a school, park and community facilities as a village center, and are connected by a pedestrian corridor, Victoria Linear Park (See diagram on following page and description on page 5-3).

Adherence to these guidelines and standards will result in a high quality of appearance and land use compatibility. These standards and guidelines are intended as implementation criteria for use by builders, planners, architects, landscape architects and civil engineers who are preparing design and construction drawings for individual proiects within the Village. This assures a benchmark of quality that directly enhances the value of each development. The Master Plan will be used by the City of Rancho Cucamonga to review each builder's design submittal package to assure conformance with the overall Village design obiectives. -- INTRODUCTION ° CHAPTER1 3 ~'~ ~gk~V1CTORIA ARBORS MASTER PLAN C.GUIDELINE GOALS AND OBJECTIVES These goals will serve to direct the overall planning and design effort, as well as to outline the intent of the guidelines and standards.

DESIGN CONCEPTS The Village of Victoria Arbors is a multi-use community thematically tied to its historic winery and agrarian roots. The design theme for this Village is wine country. The design, architecture and choice of materials should work to enforce this wine country theme. This character can reflect not only Rancho Cucamonga's history but the character of other wine regions, including Napa and Sonoma Valleys and those of France, Italy and other parts of Europe. These regions should be a source of inspiration for design and development of Victoria Arbors. B. VICTORIA ARBORS PLAN Victoria Arbors has been designed with a strong pedestrian/bicycle/auto spine (Arbor Lane) extending from the center of the northern The design theme for this Village is WINE residential community to the middle of the regional COUNTRY. The design, architecture and commercial center to the south.

PEDESTRIAN-FRIENDLY RESIDENTIAL STREETS In addition to Arbor Lane and greenways/ paseos, the pedestrian network includes the walkways along residential streets. To make these streets as pedestrian-friendly as possible, several design concepts have been made a part of this Master Han. a. Intimate Streets Although the paving of residential streets will be a typical 36 ft. wide, the street will Narrow streets calm traffic and create an be made to feel more intimate, by planting inviting pedestrianscale, street trees in a planting strip between curb and walk.

In addition the plan identifies the Community Entries and City Gateway, the desigh of which is shown on the following pages of this chapter. Further information regarding the plant material to be used, see the Plant Palettes in Section D of this chapter. Plant material shown in the Conceptual Landscape Plan were selected to be consistant with existing streets or master plans (Day Creek Blvd. and Etiwanda Avenue), or fit with the agrarian/vintner character of the area (Base Line Road and Arbor Boulevard), or fit with the its urban situation (Church Street). Interior street trees were chosen for their scale, color and suitability for residential streetscapes. B.

SCHOOL AND PARK LAND As a village focus, Victoria Arbors has an Elementary School and Neighborhood Park complex. The park will function on its own as a separate entity (when school is in session), with its own children's play equipment area, picnic benches, parking and basketball court. The school will also function on its own, but will have access to some park facilities during school hours. However, park facilities will not be isolated for school use. The school-park complex is a community facility. The intent is for residents of the community to have access to all of the recreation facilities, play equipment areas, and play fields of both school and park after school hours; and to expand school play facilities during school hours. The intent is for the school's gymnasium/multi-purpose building to also be open to the community after hours. The School/Park Illustrative Plan (Exhibi~ 15) is shown for illustrative purposes only. The school building and layout uses the Etiwanda School District's prototype school plan. The final school layout and design may different than what is shown. Likewise, the park design shown illustrates what could occur on the site. Actual final design may be different than what is shown. The Parks Department will be responsible for determining what facilities will actually be included and for the final design.

These trails include the following: 2 CHAPTER 5 · COMMUNITY RECREATION & OPEN SPACE VICTORIA ARBORS MASTER PLAN · Victoria Linear Park - Victoria Linear Park connects each of the Community of Victoria's villages' central open spaces and, in turn, connects the residential portions of the community together. This park contains Victoria Park Lane, literally a ~road within a park. The park has a rustic, natural feeling with informal tree masses and naturalized shrubs and grasses with meandering pedestrian and bicycle trails running its entire length. This linear park culminates in the Village of Victoria Arbors, at the Town Square in the Regional Center. When this linear park reaches Victoria Arbors at Base Line Road, it transitions from rustic to a more urban, park-like setting as it traverses through the villages neighborhood park and becomes part of Arbor Lane, a "park within a road." Arbor lane is a unique, iow-traffic boulevard with a 40 ft. wide pedestrian island as a median, and narrow 22 ft. paved area on either side, with one-way lanes and Class II bike trails.

RESIDENTIAL STREETSCAPES The design intent is to create residential streets that accommodate both the automobile and people. The residential neighborhoods in Victoria Arbors are connected to each other and to the school-park, regional center, winery and village commercial area by a system of greenways or paseos. The roadways within each neighborhood must provide pedestrian connections from each home to the greenways, in a comfortable manner. TYPICAL RESIDENTIAL STREET PLAN EXHIBIT 1~6"b~ SITE PLANNING GUIDELINES CHAPTER TYPICAL RESIDENTIAl STREET SECTION E X HIBIT I-~'~,% Residential Streets must be perceived intimate and safe for pedestrians. Intimate-feeling streets tend to calm traffic and make a more peaceful neighborhood. Standard 60' ROW's with 36' of paving can be made to seem much narrower, human-scale and pedestrian- friendly by doing the following: ' -'~'-~ · Homes with porches should~e set back a minimal distance from s ........ ~ (10). /a~/N~ · The majority of garages should be set back from the street, be side-in, or entered off of side-drives. (See Parking, below) · Street trees should be planted between curb and sidewalk to make street feel more intimate, and shelter pedes{rians. 2 CHAPTER 6 · SITE PLANNING GUIDELINES VICTORIA ARBORS MASTER PL^N B~ ~['~ ALTERNATIVES An objective of this Master Plan is to make residential streets more pedestrian- friendly. A major component of successfully achieving that objective is to reduce the actual __ _4 ~ i and perceived presence of the automobile. The impact of garage doors as part of the house facades lining streets, particularly on lots less than 70' wide, greatly increases the presence of the car. , There are three practical methods to reduce this impact: 1) Set the garage back further from the street, 2) Turn the garage to the side to reduce visibility of the door from the street, -- and 3) Enter the garage from the back or side of the house. These guidelines show several alternatives that use the three methods ALTERNATIVE to achieve impact reduction from the typical EXHIBIT2{~ straight-in 20 ft.. setback situation.

It is important that alt parts of this Village, including residential neighborhoods, reflect an overall design theme and project the unique identity of Victoria Arbors. To accomplish this goal, these guidelines have been written to support and reinforce the theme of wine country. To assure instant recognition that a visitor has entered Victoria Arbors, some specific architectural elements will be required as a part of all buildings. In the case of residential buildings, these architectural icons will be the porch and trellis. All houses must have a porch and/or trellis as part of its design. Depending on style, balconies with balustrades are strongly encouraged. Outdoor courtyards ~J~,w~ an important part of homes in Victoria 1~. ' Additionally, no red barrel tile roofs are allowed in Victoria Arbors (this in itself will set Victoria Arbors apart in Rancho Cucamonga). The following guidelines discuss these requirements and others in detail. RESIDENTIAL ARCHITECTURE A SIZE AND MASSING Buildings should be simple, rectilinear volumes, one and two stories in height, well articulated with window/door treatments, balconies, dormers, porches and trellises. ARCHITECTURAL GUIDELINES · CHAPTER 7 ~VICTOR1A ARBORS MASTER PLAN B CHARACTER AND STYLE The overall architectural character in Victoria arbors will reflect the theme: Wine Country. in Note: The photographs on the following addition to historical Rancho Cucamonga, wine four pages are intended to capture and country refers to Napa and Sonoma Valleys, as well display the character of actual period as wine producing areas in Europe - particularly houses of desired styles. It is not intended that they be replicated, in France and Italy. These regions should be a source of inspiration for design and development of Victoria Arbors. These areas are agrarian, and ~,~'~,~ ':':'~' buildings range from farm houses to estates and .;<, ·; i villas; arranged in rural hamlets to tightly clustered ~ agrarian villages. Houses and buildings in Victoria : :' Arbors should reflect these influences. :' Certain styles are prohibited. ~Santa Barbara" style with white or pink stucco walls and shallow-pitched red tile roofs, which proliferates Southern California, is prohibited in Victoria Arbors, as are the Spanish Colonial styles with Farm House with Europeanlnfluence similar characteristics. The use of red barrel tile is prohibited. European and Mediterranean influenced architec- ture is encouraged, particularly from France and Italy. Monterrey style architecture is an acceptable Spanish-influenced architecture. Craftsman and English Cottage/Bungalow styles are also appropriate. Buildings shall include characteristics of single styles and not mix them. They must include enough of the materials, elements and details to reflect the character of the style. In encouraging l'rovencial Farm House styles, it is not the intent of these guidelines, to have the architecture replicated. Rather, it is to encourage designers to capture the feeling and character of the style in a contemporary way, by using appropriate roof mass and pitch, 2 CHAPTER 7 ARCHITECTURAL GUIDELINES w cToRi^ ^R ORS M^STER P L^. {b--F--- architectural shapes, materials and details of Such elements as windows, doors, dormers, porches, trellises and balconies. FRENCH INFLUENCE: French Provincial houses tend to be square and symmetrical. They resemble small manor homes with massive hipped roofs and window shutters. Frequently, tall second floor windows break through the cornice. French style houses usually have these features: 1. Brick, stone, stucco or horizontal siding House with French Influences 2. Hipped roof 3. Flared eaves 4. Dormers 5. Multi-paned windows Some also have: 6. Decorative half-timbering, 7. Round tower at entryway 8.

Young English touring the Continent in the early 1800's took Country Home in French Quebec note of the stimulating forms of the medieval Italian fortresses with their high military towers and asymmetrical masses. Such structures were seen as alternatives to the classical architecture of the Italian Renaissance, the classical architecture preferred by their parents and grandparents. When these young English came into their own money, they often would build country homes in the new Italian style. This Italian style was noticed by Americans who built more modest variations. The style is characterized by a rectangular massing of the body of the house, often arranged ltalianate Home picturesquely into asymmetric blocks to imitate the sprawling look of centuries-old villas in Italy AI~CHITi~CTURAL GLIID[LIN[S CHAPTER? 3 ~_~ ~V1CTORIA ARBORS MASTER PLAN that had been modified and enlarged by many generations.

ENGLISH COTTAGE/BUNGALOW English Cottage The English or Noi'man Cottage is a one story structure generally composed of brick, stucco or occasionally stone. The most distinguishing feature is the steeply pitched roof and steeply pitched projecting front entrance. Many cottages have arched or straight-headed picture windows on the front facade, but other fenestration is limited. Windows are occasionally casements divided by English Cottage heavy metal mullions. Decorative brickwork, arched entrances, and small paned windows are also characteristic. Popular during the 1920s and 1930s, these small one-story homes were considered an alternative to the Bungalow. Defining characteristics: 1. Steeply pitched roof 2. Steeply pitched gable entrance 3.

Identified as the most common example of Craftsman architecture, the Bungalow spread quickly across the country during the early 20th century. Bungalow The typical Bungalow is a one or one-and-one-half story, wood or masonry structure with a gently pitched, front or side gable roof. An additional gable occasionally covers an open porch and the overhang is usually supported by battered or "elephantine' porch piers or thick columns. Some Bungalows have dipped gables, shed dormers, or exposed rafter ends, but almost all have a front porch. 1. Front gable roof 2. Exposed rafter ends 3. Shed dormer/ t9/ ,,~.oe'-~M . 4.

PORCHES ~ When they are set hack a modest "conversational" distance from the sidewalk, porches allow persons to sit on their porch and interact and socialize with their neighbors. They therefore add safety (by putting "eyes on the street") and friendliness to the street. As a result, porches contribute to a enjoyable walk by pedestrians in Simple Porch with Arched Openings the neighborhood. Architecturally, porches add an interesting, inviting element and additional fenestration to a building. Porches (and/or other acceptable design feature that would replace the function of a porch, such as balconies) are a required element on each residential building in Victoria Arbors. The exception to the required porch is an outdoor courtyard or patio with trellis or arbor, that has Bungalow with Well Used Porch the same relationship to the street/sidewalk as a porch. However no more that 40% of the homes in any given neighborhood may replace the porch with a courtyard and trellis.

TRELLISES& ARBORS Trellises are technically a structure upon which plants and vines may be trained. As used in these guidelines, trellises take many forms: vertical trellises used to esplanade plants on walls, patio covers, porte cochers, pergolas, gazebos and arbors. The use of vines on the trellises or trellis structures is encouraged. Vines planted on trellises and arbors reflect the wine country theme, even if the vines are ornamental rather than grapes. If a courtyard and trellis is used in lieu of a porch, it must take the form of an arbor or shade structure over the court or patio. And the court must relate Trellis as Porte Cocher to the street, much as a porch does. Note Grass Drive Strip 1. MATERIALS -'c,, ' ~ Trellises are traditionally constructed of wood. However, unless properly sealed, painted and maintained, wood is not a good material for Rancho Cucamonga. The dry climate, sun and wind, termites and rot destroy natural and stained wood outdoor structures. If wood must be used, it should be pressure preservative treated and painted. Freestanding Arbor over Walk Appropriate materials that will hold up to_ the elements better than wood include steel, plastic/fiber materials specifically made for outdoor structure use, and for larger structures, concrete finished to look like wood. These will last many times longer than wood. 2. COLORS Trellises should be painted or finished in natural wood colors, or colors matching or compatible with the building or trim color. Garden Arbor ARCHITECTURAL GUIDELINES CHAPTER 7 9 ~% VICTORIA ARBORS MASTER PLA. E. BALCONIES AND WINDOW TREATMENT Balconies are a part of many styles of architecture, and can range in size from small decorative balustrades to large, inviting verandas. They add detail and fenestration to buildings, and provide an alternative, sheltered outdoor space to relax, have a drink or watch a sunset. The many examples shown here, include balconies in combination with porches, wrought iron balustrades, and usable verandas. Window treatment is an important element in A Small but Usable Balcony defining architectural styles and providing detail to buildings. Whether it is recessed or protruding, muhi-paned or single paned, rectangular or arched, framed or not, all make a difference in the building character. The window treatment should be consistent with the style of architecture. F. ROOFING Roofing is also important in establishing the character of architecture. Many of the buildings in Southern California - most in Rancho._Cucamonga - have red tile roofs. In the interest of adhering to the "wine country~ character and encouraging European influenced architecture, red tile roofs are prohibited in Victoria Arbors. The following requirements apply to this Village: · Prohibited Roofing - Red barrel tile roofs are prohibited in Victoria Village. Wood shingles or shakes and standard asphaltic A Wrought Iron Balcony Over Looks roll roofing or shingles are prohibited. This Entrance Court · Roof Pitch - Steeper pitched roofs are encouraged (depending on the chosen CHAPTER 7 · ARCHITECTURAL GUIDELINES VICTORIA ARBORS MASTER PLAN architectural style), using appropriate forms to match the chosen European style. ·Allowed Material - Roof material must be tile, slate or other substantial, long-tasting ~t material approved by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. · Color - Roof material to be blue-grey, grey or earth-toned, and fit with the chosen architectural style. * Massing - Roofs shall be fenestrated and varied with changing ridges and rooflines and features such as consistent with the architectural style add Interesting Detail and Define Style Use of Shutters and Relief make an Elegant Statement Balcony Provides Shelter over First Floor Doors ARCHITECTURAL GUIDELINES CHAPTER 7 ~2...__~VICTORIA ARBORS MASTER PLAN FENCES AND WALLS Fences and walls play make an important visual impact in the community.

These documents,, together with all other technical studies and environmental documents incorporated by reference herein, serve as the environmental review of the proposed project, as required pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq., and the State and local CEQA Guidelines. Pursuant to the provisions of CEQA and the State and local CEQA Guidelines, the City of Rancho Cucamonga is the Lead Agency, and is charged with the responsibility of deciding whether or not to approve the proposed project (modifications to the Victoria Arbors Village project as set forth in Section 2.3). As part of the decision making process, the City is required to review and consider the potential environmental effects that could result from the modification o£project analyzed in the previously certified EIR. 1.2 PREVIOUS ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION On July 7, 1999, thc Rancho Cucamonga City Council certified the Final EIR for the Victoria Arbors Village project. The Final EIR addressed potential impacts associated with thc conversion of 64.3 acres of multi-family to single family residential; 58.76 acres of regional related office commercial to single family residential, medium density residential, and high density residential; 18.74 acres of open space and lakes to residential; and 13.28 acres of multi-family residential to a school-park; 2.9 acres of community facilities to single family residential, and 8.44 of low-medium density residential to low density single family residential in the Victoria Community Plan area. Approximately 26 acres of office/professional were proposed to be converted to single, family residential in the Etiwanda Specific Plan. Because the City did not approve the Victoria Arbors Village project, no change in on-site zoning occurred. Zoning for the project site remained that which existed prior to preparation of thc Final EIR. While the City did not approve thc project, it certified as accurate, adequate, and complete the Final EIR which provided environmental evaluation of the impacts associated with the Victoria Arbors Village project. At that time, the City did not adopt Facts and Findings and a Statement of Overriding Considerations. The Final EIR identified significant and unavoidable adverse impacts that would result from the implementation of the Victoria Arbors Village project and/or its alternatives. Operational emissions of the proposed project would have resulted in total emissions of 2,034 lbs./day of CO, 153 lbs./day of ROC, 326 lbs./day of NOx, 36 lbs./day of SOx, and 47 lbs./day of PM.o. Emission levels of CO, ROC, and NOx would have exceeded SCAQMD thresholds for long-term operations. Even after implementation of the mitigation measures identified in the Final EIR, it was not guaranteed that the emissions would be reduced to below the significance thresholds. 2/22/01 (C:\WINNTxTemporary lntemet Files\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd) I-1 Therefore, the project's impact on air quality during daily operations would have remained significant and unavoidable. Victoria Arbors Village Initial Study/Addendum Subsequent to the 1999 certification of the Final EIR, an application was made to thc City for an amendment to the City's General Plan, Victoria Community Plan, and Etiwanda Specific Plan. This application requested changes in land use designations from residential and regional retail uses to mixed uses. An Addendum to the Victoria Arbors Village Final EIR was prepared to address potential impacts associated with the rezoning of the project site from residential and regional commercial uses to a "mixed use" designation. In instances where the modifications of a previously approved project arc minor and/or non-significant, a Lead Agency may prepare an addendum (CEQA Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15164). The Addendum did not identify any new impacts or significantly increased impacts resulting from the rezoning of the project site. The addendum was certified as adequate on December 20, 2000. The City approved the proposed changes to land use designations on December 20, 2000. The City Council adopted Statements of Facts and Findings and Overriding Considerations for the Victoria Arbors Village project on December 20, 2000. These Findings found the economic, social or other benefits of the Victoria Arbors Village project and its alternatives outweighed the significant and unavoidable impacts identified in the Final EIR. In making this finding, the Council balanced the benefits of the Project and its alternatives against its unavoidable impacts and has indicated its willingness to accept those adverse impacts. 1.3 FINDINGS OF THIS INITIAL STUD Y/ADDENDUM Pursuant to CEQA, the State CEQA Guidelines, and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, this Initial Study/Addendum has been prepared in order to determine whether development of the Victoria Arbors Village project (proposed project) will result in a change in circumstances, new impacts, or new information of substantial importance requiring the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR. This addendum reviews any new information of substantial importance that was not known and could not have been known with exercise of reasonable diligence at thc time the Final EIR was certified. It further examines whether, as a result of any changes or any new information, preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR is required. This examination includes an analysis of the provisions of Section 21166 of CEQA and Section 15164 of the State CEQA Guidelines and their applicability to the proposed project. The focus of the examination is on whether the Final EIR adequately addresses the impacts associated with development of the proposed project. Pursuant to CEQA, the State CEQA Guidelines, and the City's CEQA Guidelines, the City's environmental review of the proposed project is limited to examining the environmental effects associated with the changes between the previously certified Final EIR and the potential impacts which may result from implementation of the proposed project. This focus is due to the fact that the Final EIR has already addressed the environmental impacts associated with development of the proposed project and that the Rancho Cucamonga City Council certified that the Final EIR was adequate and met the provisions of CEQA. 2/22/01 (C:\WlNNT~Temporary lnternet Files\OLK2\Initiat Study.wpd) 1-2 LSA ASSOCIATES, INC Use of an .4ddendum to a Previously Certified ElR Section 15164 of the State CEQA Guidelines states that an Addendum to an EIR shall be prepared "if some changes or additions are necessary, but none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred." Section 15162 of the State CEQA Guidelines identifies the conditions that require preparation of a subsequent EIR. A proposed change in a project will require preparation of a subsequent EIR if: 1. The change in the project is substantial. Substantial changes in the project are those that would require major revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects, or if a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects has occurred. 2. The circumstances under which the project is undertaken ,~ave substantially changed. Substantial changes in circumstances are those defined as those that would require major revisions of the previous EIR in order to describe and analyze new significant environmental effects, or any changes that would cause a substantial incn.'ase in the severity of the previously identified significant effects. 3. New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could have not been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified, shows: A. The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR; B. The significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than identified in the previous EIR; C. Mitigation measures or alternatives previously fomqd not to be feasible would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponent declines to adopt the mitigation measures or alternatives; or D. Mitigation measures or alternatives that are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponent declines to adopt the mitigation measures or alternatives. If none of the above conditions are met, the City is not permitted to require preparation of a subsequent EIR. Rather, the City may require preparation of a Mitigated Negative Declaration or an Addendum, or the City may decide that no further environmental documentation is necessary. This Initial Study/Addendum has evaluated each of the issues addressed in the Final EIR, as well as each of the issues contained in the checklist presented in Section 3.0 of this document.

Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730 Tel: (909) 47%2750 2.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION 2.1 PROJECT SITE SETTING The proposed project consists of approval of Tentative Tract 15974 (TT15974) within the City of Rancho Cucamonga, its accompanying Development Agreement, and Parcel Map 15641. Thc project site is located within the limits of the Victoria Arbors Village, which itsel£is located in the eastern portion oft_he City (Figure 2.1). Base Line Road forms the northern boundary while Foothill Boulevard and Interstate 15 (I-15) form the southern boundary, gal active Edison utility easement runs in a north-south direction parallel and adjacent to the east side. of Day Creek Channel forming the westerly boundary. Etiwanda Avenue forms the easternmost boundary. Regional access to the site is provided via interchanges with 1-15 at Base Line Road and Foothill Boulevard. The project lies within the boundaries o£ the Victoria Community Plan. The project site is largely undeveloped, but is surrounded by pockets of development, which are not a part of the project site. These developments include the Filippi Winery, a historic landmark owned by the City, and two houses with associated buildings immediately east of the winery. A small, 1950s era Craftsman Style home is located at the southeast comer o£ the intersection of Victoria Park Lane and Base Line Road. South of these structures on Etiwanda Avenue is the Nichiren Shoshu Buddhist Temple and 1950s ranch house located on the northwest coruer o£ Church Street and Etiwanda Avenue near the 1-15 freeway. At the northeast comer o£the project site is tract of new homes in the process of being developed. 2.2 PROPOSED DISCRETIONARYACTIONS The proposed project requires the following approvals by the City o£ Rancho Cucamonga: · Approval of Tentative Tract 15974 · Approval of the Development Agreement for TT 15974 · Approval of Parcel Map 15641. 2/22z01(C:\WINNT~Temporary Intemet Files\OLK2~initial Study.wpd) 2- l Base Map Source: Eagle Aerial Photography, April 23, 1996. Figure 2.1 LSA Associates, Inc. ~~ TT15974 ~ ~ Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration o' ~oo' ~.ooo' N R e~oinn~l/Prni~f T 2.3 PROJECT DESCRIPTION As previously stated, the proposed project consists of thc approval of TT 15974 and its accompanying Development Agreement. Specifically, thc proposed project includes thc construction of 554 single- family residential units, required roadway improvements, and thc installation of necessary utility infrastructure. The project proposes a reduction in thc number of dwelling units (by 172 units) from that permitted under the approved Addendum. In addition, the project includes 11.89 acres of commercial acreage (the previously approved Addendum included 8.71 acres of commercial acreage), which when developed under a floor to area ratio (FAR) of 0.25, will yield 129,482 square feet of commercial uses. This increase in commercial acreage will increase the amount of commercial space permitted within the limits of TT15974 by 34,630 square feet beyond that identified in the approved Addendum. The proposed TT15974 includes a 10.67-acre school site. Though 2.85 acres of demonstration vineyards approved in the Addendum have been eliminated from TT15974, the proposed project provides approximately 10.71 acres of park space, 1.59 acres of wetland park, as well as a system of trails. Approval of Parcel Map 15641 will result in the creation of 35 parcels within thc limits of the previously approved Victoria Arbors Village project. The proposed land use plan is illustrated in Figures 2.2A through 2.2D. Proposed on-site uses are summarized in Table 2.A. Because TT15974 consists ofaportion of the larger Victoria Arbors Village project area, Table 2.A compares land use proposed under 'IT15974 and that approved under the Addendum for the area within the limits of TT15974 only.

Determination: (To Be Completed by the Lead Ageney) On the basis of this initial evaluation: The City finds that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. [] The City finds that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have been added to the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. [] The City finds the proposed project May have a significant effect(s) on the environment, but at least one effect 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets, if the effect is a potentially significant impact or potentially significant unless mitigated an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to addressed. [] The City finds that changes to the project or the circumstances under which the project would be undertaken require major revisions to the previous EIR in order to make the previous EIR adequately apply to the proposed project in accordance with Public Resources Code Section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15163. Thus, a SUBSEQUENT EIR shall be prepared. The City finds that changes to the project or the circumstances under which the project would be undertaken require only minor revision to the previous EIR in order to make the previous EIR adequately apply to the proposed project in accordance with Public Resoumes Code Section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15163. Thus, a SUPPLEMENTAL EIR shall be prepared. 2/22/01(C:\WINNTXTemporary lnternet Files\OLK2\Initial Study wpd) 3-2 · The City finds that the significant effects that would result from the proposed project have been addressed in an earlier EIR, and that none of the determinations set forth in Public Resources Code Section 21166 and State CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 can be established. Thus, an ADDENDUM to the University/Crest Supplemental EIR shall be prepared. Signature Date Title Agency Evaluation of Environmental Impacts This/nitial Study/Addendum uses an Environmental Checklist Form (Form) to compare the anticipated environmental effects oftbe project with those disclosed in the previous EIR and to review whether any of the conditions set forth in Section 15162 of the State CEQA Guidelines requiring preparation ora subsequent EIR are met. The Form is used to review the potential environmental effects of the proposed project for each of the following areas: · Aesthetics · Agricultural Resources · Air Quality · Biological Resources · Cultural Resources · Geology/Soils · Hazards and Hazardous Materials · Hydrology/Water Quality · Land Use/Planning · Mineral Resources · Noise · Population/Housing · Public Services · Recreation · Transportation/Traffic · Utilities/Service Systems Mandatory Findings of Significance. This Initial Study/Addendum is based on an Environmental Checklist Form, as suggested in Section 15063 (d)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines. The Form includes a checklist to indicate whether the conditions set forth in Section 15162 of the State CEQA Guidelines that would require a subsequent or supplemental EIR are met, and whether there are new significant irnpacts resulting from the project. The Form is found in Section 3.0 of this Initial Study/Addendum. It contains a series of questions about the project for each of the areas. Following the Checklist Form in Section 3.2 is an explanation for each answer on the Form. 2/22/01(C:\WlNNTxTemporary Interact Files\OLK2\Initial Study.wpd) 3-3 [5- LSA A$SOC [ATIrS, There are six possible responses to each of the questions included on the Form: 1. SubstantialChangeinProjectRequiringMajorRevisionofPreviousEIR. This response is used when the project has changed to such an extent that major revisions of the previous EIR are required due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or an increase in the severity of the previously identified significant effects. 2. Substantial Change in Circumstances under which Project is Undertaken Requiring Major Revision of Previous EIR. This response is used when the circumstances under which the project is undertaken have changed to such an extent that major revisions of the previous EIR are required because such changes would result in the project having new significant environmental effects or would substantially increase the severity of the previously identified significant effects. 3. New Information of Substantial Importance Showing New or Greater Significant Effects Than Identified in Previous EIR. This response is used when new information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified in, shows that the project would have a new significant environmental effect or more severe significant effect than identified in the previous EIR. 4. New Information of Substantial Importance Showing Ability to Substantially Reduce Significant Impacts Identified in Previous EIR. This response is used when new information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete, shows: A. The significant environmental effects of the project could be substantially reduced through imposition of mitigation measures or alternatives that although previously found to be infeasible are in fact now feasible, but the project proponent declines to adopt them; or B. The significant environmental effects of the project could be substantially reduced through imposition of mitigation measures or alternatives that are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR, but the project proponent declines to adopt them. 5. Less Than Significant Impact/No Changes or Circumstances and No New Information That Would Require the Preparation of a Subsequent or Supplemental EIR. This response is used when 1) the potential impact of the project is determined to be below known or measurable thresholds of significance and would not require mitigation, or 2) there are no changes in the project or circumstances and no new information that would require the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental Eli>, pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21166 and Section 15162 of the State CEQA Guidelines. 6.

EARLIER ANALYSES Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, one or n'~re effects have been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or Negative Declaration (Section 15063(c)(3)(D).) Final Environmental Impact Report for the Victoria Arbors Village Project (SCH No. 98041137], LSA Associates, Inc., May 20, 1999. .~ddendum for the Victoria Arbors Village Project (SCH No. 98041157~, LSA Associates, Inc., December 20, 2000. 2/22/01 (C:\WINNT~Temporary lntemet Files\OLK2\Initial Study.wpd) 3-14 3.2 RESPONSES TO QUESTIONS INCLUDED IN THE ENVIRONMENT.4L CHECKLIST 1. Aesthetics. Would the Project... a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? Less than Significant Impact/No New Information or Changed Circumstances Requiring Preparation of an EIR. The Victoria Arbors Village EIR (Final ELR) identified impacts associated with development of the project site with a variety of residential, commercial, and community serving uses. Potential impacts to local viewscapes and/or scenic resources would be no greater than that identified in the Final EIR and Addendum. Mitigation measures included in the Final EIR reduced aesthetic/visual resource impacts resulting from the development c,f the Victoria Arbors Village project to below a level of significance. Approval and implementation of ~7F15974 will not alter this assessment. These mitigation measures will remain in force; therefore, potential impacts to scenic vistas from implementation of the proposed project will be reduced to below a level of significance and no further mitigation is required. b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not' limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway? Less than Significant Impact/No New Information or Changed Circumstances Requiring Preparation of an EIR. While the site is surrounded by pockets of development, it is largely undeveloped. The project site consists of abandoned vineyards, eucalyptus windrows, native and non-native vegetation, and a concrete water channel located in the central portion of the ske. The Final EIR included mitigation measures, which reduced aesthetic/visual resource impacts to a less than significant level. These mitigation measures will remain in rome. Therefore, potential impacts to scenic vistas resulting from approval and implementation of TTi5974 for the proposed project will reduce impacts to a less than significant level. c) Would the project substantially degrade the existing visua,e, character or quality of the site and its surroundings? Less than Significant Impact/No New Information or Changed Circumstances Requiring Preparation of an EIR. The Final EIR included mitigation measures, which reduce potential impacts to aesthetic/visual resources to below a level of significance. Implementation of the proposed project would generally result in the same level of development envisioned in the Final EIR. In addition, approval of TT15974 will not alter this assessment; therefore, potential aesthetic/visual resource impacts would not exceed that identified in the Final EIR. d) Would the project create a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area? Less than Significant Impact/No New Information or Changed Circumstances requiring Preparation of an EIR. Approval and implementation of TT15974 will not alter the original assessment from the Final EIR and Addendum. The Final EIR states, "the Design Review Process for commemial establishments, high density housing, and public places shall ensure that no significant light or glare impact shall result from the proposed project." Adherence to mitigation included in the Final EIR will reduce potential impacts associated with this issue to a less than significant level and no further mitigation is required. 2/22101(C:\WINNTXTemporary Internct FilesXOLK2\lnitial Study.wpd) 3-15 LSA ASSOCIATES. INC Mitigation Measures from the Final EIR The Final EIR included the following mitigation measures: 4.6.1A New buildings within 100 feet of future Day Creek Boulevard and Etiwanda Avenue shall be restricted to 35 feet in height to protect the view corridor of the mnuntains for motorists traveling north. 4.6.1B Noise walls along future Day Creek Boulevard, Etiwanda Avenue, Base Line Road, Foothill Boulevard, and Church Street shall be no more than 8 feet tall to avoid a sense of "visual enclosure" for these Scenic Corridors, and should be set back an adequate distance to allow landscaping on the road side of the sound wall. This requirement shall be attached as a condition of approval by the City Planning Department prior to approval of any development bordering future Day Creek Boulevard, ~ ....... ~ .... :~", Base Line Road, Foothill Boulevard, and Church Street. 4.6.1C Landscape requirements shall be established for the far southern end of the project site to screen new development from the view of motorists along 1-15 looking north. However, this landscaping should also allow views north towards the mountains, using the view corridor provided by the future Day Creek Boulevard and Etiwanda Avenue. The CiVy Planning Department shall address such landscaping as a condition of approval for any development in the area of I-15. 4.6.2A The Design Review process for commercial establishments, high density housing, and public places shall ensure that no significant light or glare impacts shall result from the proposed project. peclfic ~ssues to be evaluated at the time of&sign review shall include the following: proposed exterior lighting and landscaping of parking areas to reduce visible lighting from outside these areas; use of shielding on exterior lights to focus light onto the ground; and, proposed architectural materials to ensure that reflective materials are minimized. 4.6.2B The developer shall account for the loss of the aesthetic benefit of the lakes by providing a new focal point concept within residential area to be submitted for Design Review. The focal point concept could include an open space trail system linkage to the winery site and commercial areas to the south by an open space corridor, and incorporate such features as fountains, large gazebos, public art, public furniture, and/or increased open space/trails systems. 4.6.3A Provisions shall be made to account for protection of viewsheds and plant palette plans shown in the Victoria Community Plan for major intersections along future Day Creek Boulevard, Victoria Park Lane (Victoria Loop), and Church Street. Such provisions may include the following: building setbacks within the project site; varied allowable heights with lower heights nearest the interchanges; clustering of buildings; and, landscaping to complement the viewshed. These issues shall be addressed by the City Planning Department as recommendations for the Design Review process at the time of developing conditions of approval for any projects within the proposed project corridor. 4.6.3C The Community Design Criteria Part II of the Victoria Community Plan shall be amended immediately following project approval to address new uses proposed as part of the project. However, as part of this amendment, some requirements shall be included to reduce visual impacts of new development by inclusion of landscaping near major roads th.'tt matches those proposed by the Plan. For example, trees shall be planted along the site's property lines and along roadways to screen new development from view. Within the site and adjacent to major east-west comdors, the City shall designate areas for landscaping, ensuring that land adjacent to the roads is planted with low-growing vegetation to maintain a degree of visual open space on the project site. 4.6.3D The parkway on the east side of future Day Creek Boulevard shall be widened ~ to 25 feet to provide a multi-use trail from Base Line Road south to terminate at the City's adult sports complex. Specific design of the nail shall be determined by the City at the time development plans are submitted for review and approval for any development proposals adjacent to future Day Creek Boulevard. The .specific design shall tie in with the City's Day Creek Boulevard Master Plan design. The trail shall be designed to connect to planned and existing trail systems in the Etiwanda North Specific Plan and shall connect the residential areas north and south of Base Line to the regional commercial areas adjacent to Interstate 15. Adherence to these mitigation measures reduced potential impacts aesthetic/visual resource impacts to below a level of significance. Refined Project Mitigation Measures Implementation of the proposed project will not result in new significant impacts or increase the degree of impacts identified in the Final E1R. No new and/or refined mitigation measures are required for issues related to aesthetics and/or visual resources. Addendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. A comparison of the previous project with the proposed project has determined that there are no new significant environmental impacts resulting from implementation of the proposed project. No Substantial Change in Circumstances Requiring Major EIR Revisions There is no information in the record or otherwise available that indicates that there are substantial changes in circumstances that would require major changes to the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Greater Significant Effects than in Final EIR This Initial Study/Addendum has analyzed all available relevant information to determine whether there is new information that was not available at the time the Final EIR was certified that may indicate that a new significant effect may occur that was not reported in the Final EIR. Based on the information and analysis above, there is no substantial new information that there will be new, significant impacts requiring major revisions of the Final EIR.

INC 2. Agricultural Resources. Would the Project... a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency, to non-agricultural use? No Impact. The project site is not currently utilized for agricultural production and is not viewed as an agricultural resource. The Final EIR did not identify impacts related to the conversion of agricultural land to non-agricultural uses. The proposed project envisions development of the project site with residential, and commercial uses. Approval and implementation of TT15974 will not alter this assessment; therefore, no impact associated with this issue will occur. b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a Williamson Act contract? No Impact. The site is not zoned for agricultural use, nor is it subject to a Williamson Act contract. No impact related to this issue will occur. c) Would the project involve other changes in the existing environment, which due to their location or nature, could result in conversion o f farmland to non-agricultural use? No Impact. The project site is not currently used for agricultural production. Development of the project site as proposed will not result in the conversion of farmland to non-agricultural uses; therefore, no impact associated with this issue will occur. Mitigation Measures from the Final EIR The Final EIR did not include mitigation measures related to agricultural resources because no significant impacts were identified. Refined Project Mitigation Measures Implementation of the proposed project will not result in any new significant impacts. Therefore, no new and/or refined mitigation measures are required for issues related to agricultural resources. Addendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. Comparison of the proposed project with the previous project indicates that there are no new significant environmental impacts resulting from implementation of the proposed project. No Substantial Change in Circumstances Requiring Major EIR Revisions There is no information in the record or otherwise available that indicates that there are substantial changes in circumstances that would require major changes to the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Greater Significant Effects than in Final EIR C:\WINNT~Temporary Interne, Fil,s\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd ~.~.,~ ~%0 3-20 LSA ASSOCIATES, INC. This Initial Study/Addendum has analyzed all available relevant information to determine whether there is new information that was not available at the time the Final EIR was certified that may indicate that a new significant effect may occur that was not reported in the Final EIR. Based on the information and analysis above, there is no substantial new information that there will be new, significant impacts requiring major revisions of the Final EIR. 3~b New Information Showing Ability to Reduce Significant Effects in the Final EIR The analysis above shows that there are no feasible alternatives to the project or additional mitigation measures that must be considered to substantially reduce one or more of the significant effects identified in the Final EIR. 3. Air Quality. Would the Project... a) Would the project conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable air quality plan? No Impact. Approval and implementation of TT15974 will allow for development of 554 dwelling units and 129,482 square feet of commercial uses. The Addendum approved the development of 726 dwelling units and 94,852 square feet of commercial uses. The decrease of dwelling units and increase of commercial development at the proposed project will not significantly alter the type and intensity of permitted uses within the project site; therefore, significant impacts in excess of that identified in the Final EIR will not occur. b) Would the project violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation ? Less than Significant Impact/No New Information or Changed Circumstances Requiring Preparation of an EIR. The Final EIR concluded that even with implementation of mitigation measures, air quality impacts resulting from development of the Victoria Arbors Village project remained significant and unavoidable. The South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) has established thresholds for potentially significant air quality impacts based on primary land use (Table 6-2, CEQA Air Quality Handbook, SCAQMD, 1993). The threshold for residential use ranges from 166 units for single family housing to 612 units for a retirement community. The project is consistent with the Final EIR and Addendum; therefore, the air quality impacts will not be greater than was originally analyzed. c) Would the project result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)? Less than Significant Impact/No New Information or Changed Circumstances Requiring Preparation of an EIR. Development of the project site will result in short-term increases in dust and construction equipment exhaust emissions and long-term regional increases in mobile and stationary source emissions. The Final EIR identified measures which would :reduce air quality impacts resulting from development of the previous project. Development of the proposed project will not alter the type and intensity of permitted uses within the project site. No increase in the amount of C:\WINNTxTemporary Interact Files\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd 3-21 ¢- F__ \% LSA ASSOCIATES, INC. operational and/or construction emissions beyond that estimated in previous environmental documents will occur. Therefore, no impact related to this issue will occur. d Would the project expose sensitive receptors to substantialpollutant concentrations? Less than Significant Impact/No New Information or Changed Circumstances Requiring Preparation of an EIR. Development of the proposed project will not alter the 'type and intensity of permitted uses within the project site. No increase in the amount of operational and/or construction emissions Ix;yond that estimated in previous environmental documents will occur. The Final EIR identified measures which would reduce air quality impacts resulting from development of the previous project. The proposed project will not result in impacts which were not identified and addressed in the previous environmental documents. Therefore, no impact related to this issue will occur. e) Would the project create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number of people? No Impact. The Victoria Arbors Village project envisions development of residential and commercial uses within the project site. The proposed project would not generate new odors, in and of itself; however, short-term odor impacts (i.e., diesel fumes, asphalt paving) associated with project construction may occur during construction. These fumes would d~ssipate quickly, and do not pose a potentially significant odor impact. Commercial and residential uses will be required to adhere to standards which ensure the sanitary and timely disposal of solid waste. Odors associated with these uses would quickly dissipate and would not adversely affect adjacent properties or persons. Development of the proposed project will not result in the creation of objectionable odors beyond that identified in previous environmental documents. No impact associated with this issue will Occur. Mitigation Measures from the Final EIR 4.3.1A The Construction Contractor shall select the construction equipment used on-site based on low emission factors and high energy efficiency. The Construction Contractor shall ensure that construction grading plans include a statement that all construction equipment will be tuned and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications. 4.3.1B The Construction Contractor shall utilize elechSc or diesel-powered equipment in lieu of gasoline-powered engines where feasible. 4.3.1C The Construction Contractor shall ensure that construction grading plans include a statement that work crews will shut off equipment when not in use. During srnog season (May through October), the overall length of the construction period should be extended, thereby decreasing the size of the area prepared each day, to minimize vehicles and equipment operating at the same time. 4.3.1D The Construction Contractor shall time the construction activitics so as to not interfere with peak hour traffic and minimize obstruction of through traffic lanes adjacent to the site; if necessary, a flagperson shall be retained to maintain safety adjacent to existing roadways. 4.3.1E The Construction Contractor shall support and encourage ridesharing and transit incentives for the construction crew. 4.3.1F Dust generated by the development activities shall be retained on site and keep to a minimum by following the dust control measures listed below. C:\WlNNTxTemporary lntemet Files\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd ¢.~_ ~t~Q.~ 3-23 LSA ASSOCIATES~ INC a. During clearing, grading, earth moving, excavation, or transportation of cut or fill materials, water trucks or sprinkler systems shall be used to prevent dust from leaving the site and to create a crust after each day's activities cease. b. During construction, water trucks or sprinkler systems shall be used to keep all areas of vehicle movement damp enough to prevent dust from leaving the site. At a minimum, this would include wetting down such areas in the later morning and after work is completed for the day, and whenever wind exceeds 15 miles per hour. c. After clearing, grading, earth moving, or excavation is completed, the entire area of disturbed soil shall be treated immediately by pickup of the soil until the area is paved or otherwise developed so that dust generation will not occur. d. Soil stockpiled for more than two days shall be covered, kept moist, or treated with soil binders to prevent dust generation. e. Trucks transporting soil, sand, cut or fill materials and/or construction debris to or from the site shall be tarped from the point of origin. 4.3.1H The Construction Contractor shall utilize as much as possible precoated/natural colored building materials, water-based or low-VOC coating, and coating transfer or spray equipment with high transfer efficiency, such as high volume low pressure (HVLP) spray method, or manual coatings application such as paint brush, hand roller, trowel, spatula, dauber, rag, or sponge. 4.3.2A The project shall comply with Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations established by the Energy Commission regarding energy conservation standards. The project applicant shall incorporate the following in building plans: Planting trees to provide shade and shadow to building; · Solar or low-emission water heaters shall be used with combined space/water heater unit; · Refrigerator with vacuum power insulation; · Double-pained glass or window treatment for energy conservation shall be used in all exterior windows; and · Energy-efficient low-sodium parking lot lights shall be used. 4.3.3A Use of transportation demand measures (TDM) such as preferential parking for vanpooling/carpooling, subsidy for transit pass or vanpooling/carpooling, flextime work schedule, bike racks, lockers, showers, and onsite cafeteria shall be incorporated in the design of the commercial land uses. 4.3.3B The project proponent shall determine with the City and the electrical purveyor if it is feasible to pre-wire houses for electrical charges for EV cars and/or optic-fibers for home offices. If feasible, install EV charges and/or optic-fibers per the electrical purveyor's direction prior to Certificate of Occupancy. C:\WlNNTxTemporary lntemet Files\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd 3-24 4.3.3C Install EV chargers or alternative fuel stations (natural gas) for community wide use at key commercial and public location(s) such as park and ride lots, Metrolink stations, and commercial centers. 4.3.3D The developer shall contract with a mitigation monitor to assure compliance and implementation with the mitigation monitoring program. 4.3.3E The developer shall install bicycle trails per the City's General Bikeways Plan. Refined Project.Mitigation Measures Implementation of the Development Agreement for the proposed project will not result in any new significant impacts. Therefore, no new and/or refined mitigation measures are required for air quality issues. Addendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. Comparison of the previous project with the proposed project indicates that there are no new significant environmental impacts resulting from implementation of the proposed project. No Substantial Change in Circumstances Requiring Major EIR Revisions There is no information in the record or otherwise available that indicates that there are substantial changes in circumstances that would require major changes to the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Greater Significant Effects than in Final E1R This Initial Study/Addendum has analyzed all available relevant information to determine whether there is new information that was not available at the time the Final EIR was certified that may indicate that a new significant effect may occur that was not reported in the Final EIR. Based on the information and analysis above, there is no substantial new information that there will be new, significant impacts requiring major revisions of the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Ability to Reduce Significant Effects in the Final EIR The analysis above shows that there are no feasible alternatives to the project or additional mitigation measures that must be considered to substantially reduce one or more of the significant effects identified in the Final EIR. 4. Biological Resources. Would the project... a) Have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special statu:* species in local or regional LSAAS$OCIATES. INC plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department ofFish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? Less than Significant Impact/No New Information or Changed Circumstances Requiring Preparation of an E1R. Development of the proposed project would reduce the number of residential units and increase the amount of commercial acreage within the limits of TT15974. While habitat on site is substantially degraded, the project site is located within an area proposed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service CUSFWS) as "critical" habitat for the endangered San Bemardino kangaroo rat (Dipodomys merriamiparvus) (SBKR). Neither the SBKR or other threatened, or endangered species have been detected on-site. Potential impacts associated with the loss of this degraded habitat, which is devoid of SBKR or other threatened, or endangered species, would be less than significant. b) Have substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or other sensitive community identified in local or regional plans, policies, regulations or by the California Department ofFish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? Less than Significant Impact/No New Information or Changed Circumstances Requiring Preparation of an EIR. Development of the proposed project would require the removal of existing on-site biological resources from the project site, thereby substantially diminishing habitat for wildlife or plants. Development of TT15974, and the elimination of coastal sage scrub from the project site would substantially diminish habitat for wildlife or plants. The coastal sage scrub is not considered to be "pristine" or of high quality; this conclusion has been reached because portions of the site had been disturbed in the past by clearing, it is fairly monotypic, being dominated primarily by a single species (C_a_~l~mia buckwheat), and it does not support threatened or endangered species, and would, therefore,t~ a significant impact. While the Final EIR included mitigation to purchase and preserve off-site lands to compensate for the loss of on-site coastal sage scrub, the City found that the loss of this resource would not result in a significant environmental impact, acting as the Lead Agency for the project, has made the determination that because of its poor quality, the coastal sage scrub present on site did not warrant preservation; therefore, mitigation measures included in the Final EIR are not required. The City's ~_o~a.on December 20, 2000, which amended the Victoria Community Plan Amendment (Ordinance~lil~ffound that the loss of his resource would not result in a significant environmental impact; therefore, no mitigation is required. c) Have a substantial adverse effect on federally protected wetlands as defined by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (including, but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool, coastal, etc.) Through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or other means? Less than Significant Impact/No New Information or Changed Circumstances Requiring Preparation of an EIR. The proposed project would result in the loss of 0.4 acre of the 1.4 acres of mixed willow series on the site. The entire 1.4 acres qualifies as wetlands as defined for purposes of the Federal Clean Water Act. The loss of the 0.4 acre of mixed willow series/wetland would substantially diminish habitat for wildlife and plants and is, therefore, considered to be a significant impact. The following permits have been obtained by the project the applicant: C:\WlNNT~Temporary lntcrnet Files\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd ~E \ %[,..~ 3-26 LSA ASSOCIATES, INC · Section 404- U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) authorization under Nationwide Permit (N~VP) 26 A Section 404 permit is required from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) for impacts on jurisdictional waters of the U.S. This permit was issuer[ to the developer by the Corps on November 10, 1998. The expiration date has been set at February 11, 2002 for all Pre- Construction Notices (PCNs) submitted on or before March 9, 2000 (the project PCN was submitted September 11, 1998). If the authorized activity is initiated or is under contract to commence prior to February 11, 2002, one additional year will be given to complete the activity under the present terms and conditions of the nationwide permit (Federal Register Volume'65, No. 47, issued Thursday, March 9, 2000, pp. 12818 and confirmed by Jack Easton [phone conversation October 23, 2000 with Antal Szijj]). · Section 401 - California Regional Water Quality Control Board (Santa .4na Region) waiver of waste discharge and water quality certification The certification was applied for on August 10, 1999 and the certification was issued on October 25, 1999. There is no expiration date for this permit. · Section 1603 - California Department ofFish and Game (CDFG) agreement regarding stream alteration The permit was applied for on January 28, 2000 and the permit was issued on March 7, 2000. The project was authorized without a Streambed Alteration Agreement, due to expiration of the CDFG 30-day review period. There is no expiration date for this authorization. d) Interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites? No Impact. Because of the relatively uniform topography of the project site and because linkages to adjacent habitat are limited by existing barriers, wildlife movement within the limits of the project site is largely limited to localized and daily movements. Barriers to wildlife movement include major roadways (Base Line Road on the north, Foothill Boulevard on the south, Etiwanda Avenue on the east), I-15 on the southeast, and Day Creek Channel (located immediately adjacent to the western site boundary.) Implementation of the proposed project will decease the number of dwelling units and increase the amount of commercial acreage within the limits of TT15974. The Final EIR concluded that implementation of the Victoria Arbors Village project (of which TT15974 is a component) would not substantially interfere with the movement of a resident or migratory wildlife species. Therefore, potential impacts relating to this issue which may result from development of TT15974 will not OCCBr. e) ConJlict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as tree preservation policy or ordinance? No Impact. The Final EIR concluded that implementation of the Victoria Arbors Village project (of which TT15974 is a component) did not conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources. Therefore, no impact related to this issue will occur. J) Conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional or state habitat conservation plan? No Impact. The Victoria Arbors Village project (of which TTl5974 is a component) is not located within an adopted habitat conservation plan, natural community conservation plan, or other approved local, regional o~' state habitat conservation plan. No impacts associated with this issue will occur. Mitigation Measures from the Final EIR Adherence to mitigation included in thc Final EIR will reduce potential impacts associated with this issue to a less than significant level. 4.7.3C Participate in off-site mitigation bank (i.e., Team Anmdo) to provide compensation for the loss of 0.4 acres of mixed willow series. Refined Project Mitigation Measures Implementation of the Victoria Arbors Village project will not result in any new significant impacts. Therefore, no new and/or refined mitigation measures are required for issues related to biological resources. Addendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. Comparison of the previous project with the proposed project indicates that there are no new significant environmental impacts resulting from implementation of the Victoria Arbors Village project.

Cultural Resources. Would the Project... a) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource as defined in §15064.5? Less than Significant Impact/No New Information or Changed Circumstances Requiring Preparation of an EIR. A cultural resource assessment was prepared to assess potential impacts associated with development of the Victoria Arbors Village project and was included in the Final EIR. This assessment included a records search, literature review, and a pedestrian field survey. No historic building or structure, archeological, and/or cultural resource was identified within the limits of the project site. Approval of TT 15974 will not alter this assessment. While the cultural assessment did not identify on-site cultural, archaeological, or paleontological resources, the Final EIR identified the potential presence of subsurface archeological/paleontological/historic resources on site. The Final EIR includes mitigation measures 4.8.1 which states: In the event a cultural resource is uncovered during the course of the project, ground disturbing activities in the vicinity of the find should be redirected until the nature and extent of the find can be evaluated by a qualified archaeologist. Adherence to this mitigation will reduce potential impacts associated with this issue to a less than significant level. b) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological resource pursuant to §15064.5? No Impact. Please refer to Response 5(a). c) Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological resource or site or unique geologic feature? No Impact. Please refer to Response 5(a). d) Disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of formal cemeteries? Less than Significant Impact/No New Information or Changed Circumstances Requiring Preparation of an EIR. While, the cultural assessment prepared for the Victoria Arbors Village EIR did not identify human remains on site, the Final EIR identified their potential presence within the project site. Adherence to mitigation included in the Final EIR will reduce potential impacts associated with this issue to a less than significant level. Mitigation Measures from the Final EIR 4.8.1 If human remains are encountered, the San Bemardino County Coroner must be notified within 24 hours. If the Coroner determines that the bur/al is not historic, but prehistoric, the Native American Heritage Commission must be contacted to determine the most likely descendant (MLD) for the area. The MLD may become involved in the disposition of the burial.

Would the Project... a) Expose people or structures to potential substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury, or death involving: 0 Rupture of a known earthquake fault, as delineated on the most recent ~41quist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map issued by the State Geologg~t for the area or based on other substantial evidence of a known fault? Refer to Division of Mines and Geology Special Publication 42. No Impact. The project site is located approximately 1.5 miles from the Red Hill Fault, approximately 2.6 miles from the Cucamonga Fault, 9.0 miles from the San Jacinto Fault, and 12.0 miles from the San Andreas Fault. Because no on-site earthquake faults have been identified, no impact associated with this issue will occur. LSA ASSOCIATES, INC ii) Strong seismic ground shaking? No Impact. Like most of southern California, the project site will be subject to future ground shaking resulting from movement on local and/or regional faults. Structures and facilities within the project site will be designed and constructed in accordance with requirements of the latest edition of the Uniform Building Code (UBC) for Seismic Zone 4. Adherence to these requirements will reduce potential impacts associated with this issue to a less than significant level. iii) Seismic-related ground failure, including liquefaction? No Impact. Liquefaction occurs when loose, unconsolidated, water laden soils are subject to shaking, causing the soils to lose cohesion. The possibility of liquefaction occurring at a project site is dependent upon the occurrence of a significant earthquake in the vicinity, sufficient groundwater (within 40 feet of the ground surface) to cause high pore pressures, and on the grain size, plasticity, relative density, and confining pressures of the soil at the project site. The Final EIR did not identify any on-site liquefaction-related impact; therefore, development of the proposed project will not result in impacts related to this issue. iv) Landslides? No Impact. The project site is relatively flat, sloping generally to the south. As stated in the Final Draft EIR, "...The only portion of the City of Rancho Cucamonga subject to significant landslide or slope failures is in the northwest comer of the City near the foothills. The project site is located approximately 4 miles south of the foothills." Therefore, no impact related to this issue will occur. b) }Fouid the project result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil? Nolmpact. Implementation of the proposed project would result in the modification of the existing on-site topography to accommodate residential and commercial uses, and community facilities. The Final EIR did not identify impacts associated with soil erosion or the loss of topsoil. The amount of residential development permitted under the proposed project would decrease from that identified in the Final EIR and the Addendum. The location and extent of any required landform modification would approximate that required for implementation of the previously certified project. Therefore, potential soil erosion impacts and/or impact associated with the loss of topsoil will not exceed that identified in the Final EIR. c) Would the project be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, or that would become unstable as a result of the project, and potentially result in on- or off-site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction or collapse? No Impact. Please refer to responses 6a (iii) and 6a (iv). The proposed project does not involve the extraction of subsurface liquids. The proposed project will alter the geologic/seismic environment of the project site by adding residential and commercial structures in a seismically active region of Southern California; however, potential landslide, liquefaction, lateral spreading, or subsidence impacts will be no greater than that identified in the Final EIR. C:\WINNT~TemporarylntemetFiles\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd ~)~ ~_ ~,~.. 3-32 d) Would the project be located on expansive soil, as defined in Table 18-1-B of the Uniform Building Code (1994), creating substantial risks to life or property? No Impact. As stated in the Final EIR, the project site is underlain by the Tujunga soil series, "...which has a very low expansive potential." No impact associated with this issue will occur. e) Would the project have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use of septic tanks or alternative waste water disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of waste water? No Impact. The site is not currently served by sanitary sewers. Sanitary sewer service will be provided by Cucamonga County Water Dis~ct (CCWD). Wastewater flows will be conveyed to facilities operated by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency (IEUA). Implementation of the proposed project will not alter the planned method of wastewater disposal. Because the proposed project will not utilize septic or alternative methods ofwastewater disposal, no impact associated with this issue will occur. Mitigation Measures from the Final EIR The Final EIR did not include mitigation measures for issues related to geology and soils because these issues were identified as less than significant. Refined Project Mitigation Measures Implementation of the proposed project will not result in any new significant impacts. Therefore, no new and/or refined mitigation measures are required for issues related to geology and soils. ,4ddendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. Comparison of the previous project with the proposed project indicates that there are no new significant environmental impacts resulting from implementation of the proposed project.. No Substantial Change in Circumstances Requiring Major EIR Revisions There is no information in the record or otherwise available that indicates that there are substantial changes in circumstances that would require major changes to the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Greater Significant Effects than in Final EIR This Initial Study/Addendum has analyzed all available relevant information to determine whether there is new information that was not available at thc time the Final EIR was certified that may indicate that a new significant effect may occur that was not reported in the Final EIR. Based on the 2/21/OlC:\WINNT~Temporary lntemet Files\OLK2Xlnitial Study.wpd 3-33 LSA ASSOCIATES, [NC. information and analysis above, there is no substantial new information that there will be new, significant impacts requiring major revisions of the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Ability to Reduce Significant Effects in the Final EIR The analysis above shows that there are no feasible alternatives to the project or additional mitigation measures that must be considered to substantially reduce one or more of the significant effects identified in the Final EIR. 2/21/O1C:\WlNNT~Temporary lnternet Files\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd 3-34 Hazards and Hazardous Materials. Would the Project... Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous materials? NoImpact. Implementation of the proposed project permits development of mixed residential and commercial uses throughout the project site. Although, commercial outlets sell paints, petroleum products, compressed gases, solvents, pesticides, and cleaning supplies, the routine transport,. storage, and sale of these substances is not anticipated to create a significant hazard to the public or environment beyond that identified in the Final EIR. b) Would the project create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions invalving the release of hazardous materials into the environment? No Impact. The proposed project would not expose persons to hazardous substances beyond those routinely utilized within homes and commercial outlets. Implementation of the proposed project will not substantially increase the quantities of hazardous materials transported or stored within the limits of the project site. The proposed project will not significantly increase the potential for the accidental release of hazardous materials into the environment; therefore, potential impacts associated with this issue will not exceed that identified in the Final EIR Would the project emit hazardous emissions or handle ha::ardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school? Less than Significant Impact. The previously certified Victoria Arbors Village EIR included an elementary school site. Though reduced slightly in size, this elementary school site remains a component of thc TT15974. The proposed elementary school site does not lie within 0.25 mile of a hazardous material producer or user; therefore, impact associated with this issue will not occur. d) Would the project be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the public or the environmet,~t? No Impact. There are no hazardous materials on-site. Therefore, nc, impact associated with this issue will occur. e) Would the project be located within an airport land use plun or, where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? No Impact. The project site is located approximately 4.5 miles northeast of Ontario International Airport, 8.0 miles west of Rialto Municipal Airport, and 9.0 miles east of Cable Airport (Upland). Development of TT15974 will not result in a safety hazard for persons residing or working within the project site. No impact associated with this issue will occur. LSAA$SOCIATE$,INC. J) l~ould the project be located within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? No Impact. Please refer to Response 7(e). 2/21/OIC:\WINNTXTempomry lntemet Files\OLK2\Initial Smdy.wpd ~ ~.. ~k.~,,~ 3-36 ~Vould the projeet impair implementation of or physicallj~ interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan? lV-o Impact. Implementation of TT15974 will increase traffic on local and regional roadway networks. The amount of residential and commercial development permitted within the project site will not increase beyond that identified in the Final EIR, and development of the project site has been assumed during preparation of local planning documents; therefore, potential impacts associated with this issue would not exceed that recognized in previous environmental/planning documents. Developer(s) of the project site will be required to design, construct, and maintain structures, roadways, and facilities to comply with applicable local, regional, State and/or federal requirements related to emergency access and evacuation plans. Construction activities which may temporarily restrict access will be required to implement adequate and applicable measures to facilitate the passage of persons and vehicles through the project site. Adherence to these measures will reduce potential impacts related to this issue to a less than significant level. h) Would the project expose people or structures to a significant risl~ of loss, injury or death involving wildland fires, including where wildlands are adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are intermixed with wildlands ? No Impact. The project site is currently vegetated with a variety of weeds, annual grasses, shrubs, abandoned vineyards, and other plant material. This vegetation will be removed to allow for the construction of homes, and commercial sites. All new constmctinn will comply with applicable standards of the Uniform Fire Code and regulations of the Rancho Cucamonga Fire District (RCFD); therefore, no impact will occur. Mitigation Measures from the Final EIR The Final EIR did not include mitigation measures related to hazards and/or hazardous materials because no significant impacts related to hazards and/or hazardous materials are identified. Refined Project Mitigation Measures Implementation of the proposed project will not result in new significant impacts or increase the degree of impacts identified in the Final EIR. No new and/or refined mitigation measures are required for issues related to hazards and/or hazardous materials. Addendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. A comparison of the previous project with the proposed project has determined that them are no new significant environmental impacts resulting from irrtplementation of proposed project. No Substantial Change in Circumstances Requiring Major EIR Revisions There is no information in the record or otherwise available that indicates that there are substantial changes in circumstances that would require major changes to the Final EIR. LSAASSOCIATES,[NC. No New Information Showing Greater Significant Effects than in Final EIR This Initial Study/Addendum has analyzed all available relevant information to determine whether there is new information that was not available at the time the Final EIR were certified that may indicate that a new significant effect may occur that was not reported in the Final EIR. Based on the information and analysis above, there is no substantial new information that there will be new, significant impacts requiring major revisions of the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Ability to Reduce Significant Effects in the Final EIR The analysis above shows that there are no feasible alternatives to the project or additional mitigation measures that must be considered to substantially reduce one or more of the significant effects identified in the Final EIR. h) Hydrology and Water Quality. Would the Projeca.. a) Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements? No Impact. Development within the project will adhere to applicable provisions of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit as required by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), Santa Ana Region. Development of TT15974 will not substantially alter type or scale of uses within thc limits of proposed project. Adherence to applicable requirements of the NPDES permit will reduce potential impacts associated with this issue to a less than significant impact. b) Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with groundwater recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local groundwater table level (e.g., the production rate of pre-existing nearby wells would drop to a level which would not support existing land uses or planned uses for which permits have been granted) ? No Impact. Development within the limits of TT15974 envisions a reduction in the number of dwelling units from that identified in the Final EIR and/or Addendum. No increase in the amount of water required to service the project site or the amount of impermeable surfaces is anticipated. Therefore, development of the project site will not result in impacts related to groundwater supply and/or recharge beyond that identified in the Final EIR. e) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, in a manner which wouM result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site? No Impact. Development of TT15974 envisions a reduction in the number of dwelling units from that proposed in the Final EIR and/or Addendum. Changes to the number, location, and/or configuration of dwelling units will not substantially alter drainage patterns beyond that identified in previous environmental documents. No impact associated with this issue will occur. 2/21/O1C:\WlNNTxTemporarylntemetriles\OLK2\InitialStudy.wpd ~-. ~.. ~k~C~ 3-38 d) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the si~!e or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, or substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a manner, which would result in flooding on- or off-site? No Impact. On-site storm water facilities will be designed, installed, and maintained to adequately handle the ultimate drainage anticipated for the area. Development of TT15974 will not substantially modify the configuration of residential and commercial areas, from that identified in the Final EIR and/or Addendum. Therefore, no impact associated with this issue will occur. e) Create or contribute runoff water which would exceed th,,. capacity of existing or planned storm water drainage systems or provide substantial addil'ional sources of polluted runoff. No Impact. The proposed project would reduce the number of dwelling units, while increasing the amount of commercial space from that identified in the Final EIR and/or Addendum. No significant increase in the amount of impermeable surfaces is anticipated. Development of the proposed project will not create or contribute runoffin excess of that identified in the Final EIR. Development of T1'15974 will adhere to applicable provisions of the NPDES peri'nil: as required by the RWQCB. No impact beyond that addressed in the Final EIR will occur. Otherwise substantially degrade water quality? No Impact. Implementation TT15974 will not alter the type of proposed on-site uses from that envisioned in the Final EIR and/or Addendum. Development within the project site will adhere to applicable provisions of the NPDES permit as required by the RWQCB. No impact beyond that addressed in the Final EIR will occur. g) Place housing within a l O0-year flood hazard area as map'ped on a federal Flood Hazard Boundary or Flood Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map? No Impact. The project site is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area. No impact associated with this issue will occur. h) Place within a l O0-year flood hazard area structures whicJi would impede or redirect flood flows? No Impact. The project site is not within a 100-year flood hazard area. No impact will occur. 0 Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury or death involving flooding, including flooding as a result of the failure of a levee or da'm ? No Impact. Development ofT1'15974 includes the installation of on-site storm water facilities. These facilities will be designed, installed, and maintained to adequately handle the ultimate drainage anticipated for the area. The proposed project would reduce the number of dwelling units, while increasing the amount of commercial space from that identified in the Final EIR and Addendum. These modifications would not increase risks from flood related events beyond that identified in the Final EIR and Addendum. LSAASSOCIATE$,INC j) Be subject to inundation by seiche, tsunamL or mud flow? No Impact. The project site is not located adjacent to coastal waters or large, contained, bodies of water. Therefore, impacts resulting from either a tsunami or seiche will not occur. The project site is relatively flat, sloping generally to the south. The proposed project would reduce the number of dwelling units, while increasing the amount of commercial space from that identified in the Final EIR and Addendum. Previous environmental documents did not identify significant impacts related to seiche, tsunami, or mudflow hazards. Development within the limits of TT15974 are not substantially altered as to increase potential seiche, tsunami, or mudflow impacts beyond that identified in the Final EIR and Addendum. No impact with this issue will occur. Mitigation Measures from the Final EIR The Final EIR did not include mitigation measures related to hazards and/or hazardous materials because no significant impacts related to hazards and/or hazardous materials are identified. Refined Project Mitigation Measures Implementation of the proposed project will not result in new significant impacts or increase the degree of impacts identified in the Final EIR. No new and/or refined mitigation measures are required for issues related to hazards and/or hazardous materials. ~lddendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. A comparison of the previous project with the proposed project has determined that there are no new significant environmental impacts resulting from implementation of proposed project.

No New Information Showing Ability to Reduce Significant Effects in the Final EIR The analysis above shows that there are no feasible alternatives to the project or additional mitigation measures that must be considered to substantially reduce one or more of the significant effects identified in the Final EIR. 2/21/OIC:\WlNNT~Temp°raE/lnternetFiles\OLK2\lnitialStudy'wpd ~)--~,- ~ ~G 3-40 9.) Land Use and Planning. Would the Projecr.. a) Physically divide an established community? ]~b Impact. Thc project site is currently vacant. Implementation cfTT15974 will not physically divide an established community; therefore, no impact related to this issue will occur. b) Conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the project (including, but not limited to the generai plan, specific plan, or zoning ordinance) adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect? No Impact. The Final EIR identified impacts associated with thc modification of land use designations to approximately 192 acres within the Victoria Community Plan and thc Etiwanda Specific Plan. Tr15974 is implementing the changes already approved with the amendments to the Victoria Community Plan and is also implementing thc approved Victoria Arbors Village Plan. The underlying land use established by thc City would permit thc development of residential, commercial, community facility, and recreational uses, which transition smoothly from lower intensity to higher intensity uses. Thc approval and implementation of TT15974 will not significantly alter thc scale, intensity, or location of on-site uses from that identified in thc Final EIR and Addendum; therefore, potential impacts associated with this issue will be less than significant and no further mitigation is required. c) Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or natural community eonservation plan? No Impact. The project site is not located within a habitat conservation plan area or a natural community conservation plan area; therefore, no impact associated with this issue will occur. Mitigation Measures from the Final EIR In order to mitigate impacts related to incompatibilities of adjacent land uses, the Final EIR included the following mitigation measures: 4.1.6A Lots within the Victoria Arbors Village project with backyards that abut upon commercial or office/professional uses shall be set back 60 feet from the common property line. Homes on lots whose side yards abut commercial or office/profession uses shall be set back 30 feet from the common property line. The City determines that the requirement of an additional 20 feet landscape buffer with a non- buildable deed restriction in perpetuity will rmtigate the incompatible land use. 4.1.6B The number of windows which look onto commercial or office/professional uses shall ~ minimized. Windows which look upon these uses shall be double paned. Window insulation shall be sufficient to ensure interior noise levels to 45 dB CNEL. 4.1.6C An 8-foot slump block wall shall be constructed along the common property line which separates the residential and non-residential use. The base of the wall shall be planted with a 16-foot wide buffer (8 feet of landscaping on each side of the wall). Landscaping materials shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Director. 2/21/01C:\W1NNTxTcmporary Interact Files\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd 3-41 LSA ASSOCIATES, INC. 4.1.6I) The CC & Rs for any residential unit abutting upon a non-residential use shall disclose the presence of the adjacent non-residential use and, to the extent possible describe the potential nuisances which might be generated by the non-residential use. 4.1.6E No residential or non-residential use shall generate noise, odors, or unnecessary light, glare or shadow beyond the property line of said use. 4.1.6F A 20-foot landscape and 25-foot additional rear yard buffer shall be provided on the north side of Church Street between Etiwanda Avenue and Day Creek Boulevard. Landscaping materials shall contain a variety of species used to buffer traffic noise and light and glare from potential commercial uses south of Church Street. The landscape design shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Director. Addendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. Comparison of the previous project with the project as described in Section 2.3 of this document indicates that there are no new significant environmental impacts resulting fi.om implementation of the proposed project. No Substantial Change in Circumstances Requiring Major EIR Revisions There is no information in the record or otherwise available that indicates that there are substantial changes in circumstances that would require major changes to the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Greater Significant Effects than in Final ErR This Initial Study/Addendum has analyzed all available relevant information to determine whether there is new information that was not available at the time the Final EIR was certified that may indicate that a new significant effect may occur that was not reported in the Final EIR. Based on the information and analysis above, there is no substantial new information that there will be new, significant impacts requiring major revisions of the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Ability to Reduce Significant Effects in the Final EIR The analysis above shows that there are no feasible alternatives to the project or additional mitigation measures that must be considered to substantially reduce one or more of the significant effects identified in the Final EIR. 10. Mineral Resources. Would the Projeca.. a) Result in the loss of availability ora known mineral resource that would be of value to the region and the residents of the state? No Impact. Thc project site does not contain any extractable resource; therefore, implementation of proposed project will not result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource. No impact rented to this issue will occur. 2/21/01C:\WlNNT~Temporary Interact Files\OLK2\Initial Study.wpd 3-42 b) Result in the loss of availabili~ of a locally-important mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan? No Impact. The City's General Plan does not identify any aggregate extraction areas within the limits of the project site. The closest mapped Surface Mining and Reclamation Act resource area is located over 2.0 miles northwest of the project site. No impact associated with this issue will occur. 2/21/O1C:\WlNNT~Temporary lntemet File$\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd 3-43 ASSOCIATES. ING. Mitigation Measures from the Final EIR The Final EIR did not include mitigation measures related to mineral resources because no significant impacts to mineral resources will occur. Refined Project Mitigation Measures Implementation of the proposed project will not will not result in new significant impacts or increase the degree of impacts identified in the Final EIR. No new and/or refined mitigation measures are required for issues related to mineral resources. Addendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required.

Noise. Would the Project... a) Result in exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies? Less than Significant Impact/No New information or Changed Circumstances requiring Preparation of an EIR. The Final EIR identified potential noise impacts associated with development of the proposed project and provided mitigation measures to reduce the significance of these impacts. 2/21/01C:\WlNN~Temporary lnternet Files\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd 3-44 LSA ASSOCIATES, INC. LSA A$$0CI ATE$ I Short-Term Construction-Related Impacts Noise levels from grading and other construction activities for the proposed project may range up to 85 dBA at the closest residences to the northeast of the project site north of Base Line Road or to the east of Etiwanda Avenue for very limited times when construction occurs near them. Construction- related noise impacts would be potentially significant; however, with implementation of mitigation measures identified, the impact would be reduced to less than significant. Long-Term Traffic Noise Impacts Increases in nois~ levels could result from project-related traffic on access roads leading to the project site. Project-related long-term vehicular trip increases would be 36,134 daily. The incremental project-related traffic noise level increases would be less than 3 dBA, except along Church Street between Rochester Avenue and future Day Creek Boulevard, where the increase would be 4.2 dBA but no sensitive uses exist currently in this area. No significant traffic noise impacts on off-site sensitive uses are anticipated. However, proposed on-site residential uses would potentially be exposed to traffic noise levels exceeding the 60 dBA Ldn standard recommended for residential uses. Implementation of mitigation measures would be required to reduce such an impact to less than significant. The applicable noise standards governing the project site are the criteria in the City's Noise Element and Development Code. Approval and implementation of TT15974 will not alter this assessment. Adherence to mitigation included in the Final EIR and Addendum will reduce potential impacts associated with this issue to a less than significant level. b) Result in exposure of persons to or generation of excessive ground borne vibration or ground borne noise levels? Less than Significant Impact/No New information or Changed Circumstances requiring Preparation of an EIR. The Final EIR identified potential impacts associated with ground borne noise levels from construction of the proposed project and provided mitigation measures to reduce the significance of these impacts. Excavation, grading, and building erection on site during construction of TT15974 would result in short-term noise impacts. Ambient noise levels during construction would be higher than the existing ambient noise levels in the project area today, but would no longer occur once construction of the project is complete. Approval of TT15974 will not alter this assessment. Adherence to mitigation included in the Final EIR will reduce potential impacts associated with this issue to a less than significant level. c) Result in a substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the project? No Impact. Increases in ambient noise levels for the proposed project are temporary in nature and would not result in a permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity. No impact would occur. d) Result in a substantial temporary or periodic increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the project? 3-46 2/21/01C:\WINNT~Tcmporary Interact Files\OLK2~lnitial Study.wpd ~) ~ ,~.~_ ~ LSA ASSOCIATES.

Mitigation such as setback, concrete block wall, or earthen berm or their combination along the property line, proper building orientation, building facade upgrade, double-pained windows, and/or mechanical ventilation shall be provided. Adherence to these mitigation measures reduced potential impacts fi.om noise to below a level of significance. Refined Project Mitigation Measures Implementation of the proposed project will not result in new significant impacts or increase the degree of impacts identified in the Final EIR. No new and/or refined mitigation measures am required for issues related to noise. Addendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. A comparison of the previous project with the proposed project has determined that there are no new significant environmental impacts resulting from implementation of the proposed project. No Substantial Change in Circumstances Requiring Major EIR Revisions There is no information in the record or otherwise available that indicates that there are substantial changes in circumstances that would require major changes to the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Greater Significant Effects than in Final EIR This Initial Study/Addendum has analyzed all available relevant information to determine whether there is new information that was not available at the time the Final EIR was certified that may indicate that a new significant effect may occur that was not reported in the Final EIR. Based on the information and analysis above, there is no substantial new information that there will be new, significant impacts requiring major revisions of the Final EIR.

LSA ASSOCIATES, INC. 12. Population and Housing. Would the Project... a) Induce substantial population growth in an area, either directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for 4~ample, through extension of roads or other infrastructure) ? No Impact. No significant impact related to this issue was identified under any previous environmental documentation for the project site. The proposed project envisions the construction of 554 single-family dwelling units. Based on an average of 3.01 persons per dwelling units, these 554 units would generate a population increase of 1,668 persons. The number of dwelling units proposed is reduced from ihat approved under the Final EIR and Addendum; therefore, development of the project site as envisioned in TT15974 would not significantly induce growth beyond that anticipated by the City. No impact related to this issue will occur. b) Displace substantial numbers of existing housing or people, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? No Impact. No residential structures are located on-site. No impacts related to this issue will occur. c) Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? No Impact. Please refer to Response 12(b). Mitigation Measures from the Final EIR The Final EIR did not include mitigation measures related to population/housing issues because no significant impacts related to population/housing will occur. Refined Project Mitigation Measures Implementation of the proposed project will not result in new significant impacts or increase the degree of impacts identified in the Final EIR. No new and/or refined mitigation measures are required for issues related to population/housing issues. Addendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. A comparison of the previous project with the proposed project has determined that there are no new significant environmental impacts resulting fi'om implementation of proposed project. No Substantial Change in Circumstances Requiring Major EIR R~eisions There is no information in the record or otherwise available that indicates that there are substantial changes in circumstances that would require major changes to the Final EIR. 3 -49 LSAASSOCIATES, INC No New Information Showing Greater Significant Effects than in Final EIR This Initial Study/Addendum has analyzed all available relevant information to determine whether there is new information that was not available at the time the Final EIR were certified that may indicate that a new significant effect may occur that was not reported in the Final EIR. Based on the information and analysis above, there is no substantial new information that there will be new, significant impacts requiring major revisions of the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Abilio, to Reduce Significant Effects in the Final EIR The analysis above shows that there are no feasible alternatives to the project or additional mitigation measures that must be considered to substantially reduce one or more of the significant effects identified in the Final EIR. II Public Services: WouM the projec~.. a) Result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which would cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services: 0 Fireprotection? Less than Significant Impact/No New information or Changed Circumstances requiring Preparation of an EIR. As compared to the Final EIR and Addendum, the proposed project will reduce the number of dwelling units and increase the amount of commercial acreage within the limits of TT15974 by approximately 3.18 acres. As identified in Final EIR, development associated with the Victoria Arbors Village would increase the demand for fire protection in the area and would require additional staffing and facilities to accommodate growth. While the number of dwelling units is reduced, demand for fire protection services will be similar to that identified in the Final EIR. Implementation of mitigation included in the Final EIR would reduce impacts associated with this issue to a less than significant level. ii) Police protection ? Less than Significant Impact/No New information or Changed Circumstances requiring Preparation of an EIR. As compared to the Final EIR and Addendum, the proposed project will reduce the number of dwelling units and increase the amount of commercial acreage within limits of TT15974. As identified in Final EIR, development associated with the Victoria Arbors Village would increase the demand for police protection in the area and would require additional staffing and facilities to accommodate growth. While the number of dwelling units is reduced by 172 units (offset by an increase in commercial space), demand for police protection services will be similar to that identified in the Final EIR. Implementation of mitigation included in the Final EIR would reduce impacts associated with this issue to a less than significant level. iii) Schools? 2/21/01C:\WlNNTxTempora~ Interact Files\OLK2Xlnifial Study.wpd 3 -5 0 Less than Significant Impact/No Changes or New Information Requiring Preparation of an EIR. As identified in the Final Ell>,, development associated with build-out of the Victoria Arbors Village project will increase demand on local school facilities. Because the number of units envisioned in TT15974 is reduced from that proposed for the same area in the Final EIR, the demand for school services and facilities will be proportionally reduced from that identified in the Final EIR. Implementation of mitigation measures included in the Final EIR will reduce the proposed project's impact on school facilities. iv) Parks? No Impact. Please refer to Responses 14 (a) and (b). v) Other Public Facilities No Impact. Development of the proposed project would reduce the number of residential units and increase the amount of commercial acreage within the limits of TI 15974; therefore, no increase in the demand for library, medical, or social services will take place. No additional maintenance burden of public facilities is anticipated. Therefore, no impact associated 'with this issue will occur. Mitigation Measures from Final EIR The following mitigation measures directly correspond to the numhered impact statements in the impact analysis discussion: Schools: 4.5.1A The developer shall be required to execute an agreement with Etiwanda School District and Chaffey Joint Union High School District to provide adequate mitigation. Such an agreement shall be executed prior to Planning Comrmssion approval for any residential project within the General Plan Amendment area. Actual implementation of the agreement by the payment of fees, dedication of sites or other mitigation will take place as building permits are obtained. 4.5.1B In the event that the developer declines to execute a mitigation agreement, the City shall require full mitigation as a condition of approval. Full mitigation shall be accomplished by means of a requirement to form a Mello-Roos Community Facilities district tbr school facilities. In order to reduce the burden on the future homeowners, it is possible to structure the community facilities district such that some of the special taxes would be prepaid by the developer. Police: 4.5.3A As stated in the General Requirements and Approvals for the Police Department for the City, a signed consent and waiver form to join and/or form the Law Enforcement Community Facilities District shall be filed with City Engineering prior to final map approval or the issuance of building permits, whichever occurs first for any projects within the project area between Base Line Road and 1-15. Formation costs shall be borne by the developer. Fire: 3-51 2/21/01C:\WlNNT~Temporary Interact Files\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd ~,~__ ~k LSAAS$OCIATE$,INC 4.5.4A The developer shall join the Mello-Roos Community Facilities District to provide fire protection services to the site. 4.5.4B The developer shall install automated fire sprinkler systems in commercial, industrial, and multi-family residential units in accordance with Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District Ordinance No. 15 and Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District Ordinance No. 22. Refined Project Mitigation Measures Implementation of the proposed project will not result in new significant impacts or increase the degree of impacfs identified in the Final EIR. Therefore, no new and/or refined mitigation measures are required for issues related to public services issues. Addendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. A comparison of the previous project with the proposed project has determined tha! there are no new significant environmental impacts resulting from implementation of proposed project. No Substantial Change in Circumstances Requiring Major EIR Revisions There is no information in the record or otherwise available that indicates that there are substantial changes in circumstances that would require major changes to the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Greater Significant Effects than in Final EIR This Initial Study/Addendum has analyzed all available relevant information to determine whether there is new information that was not available at the time the Final EIR were certified that may indicate that a new significant effect may occur that was not reported in the Final EIR. Based on the information and analysis above, there is no substantial new information that there will be new, significant impacts requiring major revisions of the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Ability to Reduce Significant Effects in the Final EIR The analysis above shows that there are no feasible alternatives to the project or additional mitigation measures that must be considered to substantially reduce one or more of the significant effects identified in the Final EIR. 14. Parks and Recreation a) }VouM the project increase the use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated? LSA ASSOCIATES, INC. Nolmpact. Development of TT15974 within a portion of the larger Victoria Arbors Village project area would result in the construction and occupation of 554 dwelling units. Based on a factor of 3.01 persons per dwelling unit, this level of development would increase the City's population by 1,668 persons. The City requires 5 acres of active park space per every 1,000 residents; therefore, the population resulting from development of TT15974 will require the provision of 8.34 (1.668 x 5) acres of active park space. The proposed project provides 10.71 acres of park and trail space. Because the proposed project provides park space in excess of that required, no impact a:~sociated with this issue will occur. b) Does the project include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities which might have an adverse physical effect on the environment? No Impact. Development of TT15974 will increase the population of the City by 1,668 persons. To meet the City's active park space requirement, the proposed project will be required to provide 8.31 acres of active park space. Impacts related to the development of park space were addressed in the Final EIR. The dedication and/or development of park space within the limits of the proposed project would not result in impacts beyond that identified in the Final EIR. Mitigation Measures from Final EIR The mitigation measures Final EIR have been satisfied by the design of the proposed project. Refined Project Mitigation Measures The implementation of the proposed project will not result in significant impacts, not identified in the Final EIR. Therefore, no new and/or refined mitigation measures are required for issues related to public services issues. Addendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. Comparison of the previous project with the project as described in the final EIR of this document indicates that there are increased environmental impacts resulting from implementation of the Victoria Arbors Village Addendum. However, with refinement and implementation of new mitigation measures, these impacts can be mitigated to a less than significant level. No Substantial Change in Circumstances Requiring Major EIR Revisions There is no information in the record or otherwise available that indicates that there are substantial changes in circumstances that would require major changes to the Final EIR. LSAAS$OCIATES, INC No New Information Showing Greater Significant Effects than in Final EIR This Initial Study/Addendum has analyzed all available relevant information to determine whether there is new information that was not available at the time the Final EIR was certified that may indicate that a new significant effect may occur that was not reported in the Final EIR. Based on the information and analysis above, there is no substantial new information that there will be new, significant impacts requiring major revisions of the Final EIR. Impacts associated with parks and recreation are mitigated to a level of less than significant. No New Informat!on Showing.4bilio, to Reduce Significant Effects in the Final EIR The analysis above shows that there are no feasible alternatives to the project that must be considered to substantially reduce one or more of the significant effects identified in the Final EIR. 15. Transportation/Traffic. Would the Projeca.. a) Cause an increase in traffic which is substantial in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of the street system (Le., result in a substantial increase in either the number of vehicle trips, the volume to capacity ratio on roads, or congestion at intersections)? Less than Significant Impact/No Changes or New Information Requiring Preparation of an EIR. The proposed project would result in thc construction of 554 residential units and 129,482 square fcct of commercial uses. When compared to thc Addendum, implementation of TT 15974 would result in thc construction of 172 fewer residential units and 34,630 more square fcct of commercial space. While traffic associated with the proposed project would increase traffic volumes beyond that which currently exist, the amount of traffic resulting from thc project is no greater than that anticipated for thc certified E]R and Addendum. b) Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a level of service standard established by the coun~ congestion management agency for designated roads or highways? No Impact. No significant increase in the number of vehicle trips, volume to capacity ratios, or congestion on local roadways is anticipated as a result of development of thc project site (as entitled). Therefore, impacts to level of service standards will be no greater than identified in the Final EIR. c) Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including either an increase in traffic levels or a change in location that results in substantial safety risks? No Impact. TT15974 does not include an air transportation component, nor will thc proposed project affect operations at any local air facility; therefore, no impact related to this issue will occur. d) Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? No Impact. Development of thc Victoria Arbors Village project will not significantly increase the type or scale of permitted uses within the project site, and will not increase hazards from 2/21/01C:\WlNNTXTemporary lnternet Fi lcs\OLK2\lnitial Study.wpd 3 -54 incompatible uses or design features. Adherence to mitigation measures included in the Final EIR and applicable City standards will preclude impacts related to this issue. e) Result in inadequate emergency access? Less than Significant Impact/No Changes or New Information Requiring Preparation of an EIR. Development of the project site proposes 554 residential units and 129,482 square feet of commercial space permitted within the limits of the project site. Compliance with applicable emergency access requirements of the San Bemardino County Fire Department (SBCFD), San Bemardino County Sheriffs's Department (SBSD), and/or the City of Rancho Cucamonga will ensure that emergency response to the site will not be hampered. Approval and implementation of TT15974 will not result in inadequate emergency access, therefore, no impact beyond that :identified in the Final EIR will OCCur. Result in inadequate parking capacity? No Impact. Development of the project site as proposed will not significantly alter the type or scale of permitted uses within the project site. The Final EIR did not ide. ntify any significant impact associated with the provision of parking. Parking for commercial uses and community facilities will be provided per City of Rancho Cucamonga standards. Approval of TT15974 will not alter the previous assessment, therefore, no impact beyond that identified in the EIR will occur. g) Conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting alternative transportation (e.g., bus turnouts, bicycle racks)? No Impact. TT15974 does not significantly alter the scale or intensity of uses from that identified in the Final EIR and Addendum. Development within the project site will be subject to applicable City policies, which support the provisions of alternative methods of transportation; therefore, no impact related to this issue will occur. Mitigation Measures from the Final EIR Adherence to mitigation measures included in the Final EIR will reduce potential impacts associated with this issue to a less than significant level. 4.2.1A The project proponent shall contribute a traffic fee in accordance with the City's adopted traffic fee program for backbone infrastructure (Transportation Departraent Impact Fee Ordinance No. 445) as the project's fair share contribution to additional circulation improvements identified as necessary to maintain an acceptable level of service as identified in a Traffic Impact Analysis.

Therefore, no new and/or refined mitigation measures are required for issues transportation related issues. Addendum Determinations Major EIR Revisions Not Required Based on the foregoing analysis and information, there is no evidence that major changes to the Final EIR are required. Comparison of the previous project with the project as described in Section 2.3 of this document indicates that there are no new significant environmental impacts resulting from implementation of the proposed project. ~l~ No Substantial Change in Circumstances Requiring Major EIR Revisions 3-57 2/21101C:\WlNNTxTcmporary lntemet Filcs\OLK2~Initial Study.wpd ~ ~.. ~ \ (.l~ l~l- There is no information in the record or otherwise available that indicates that there are substantial changes in circumstances that would require major changes to the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Greater Significant Effects than in Final EIR This Initial Study/Addendum has analyzed all available relevant information to determine whether there is new information that was not available at the time the Final EIR was certified that may indicate that a new significant effect may occur that was not reported in the Final E1R. Based on the information and analysis above, there is no substantial new information that there will be new, significant impaqts requiring major revisions of the Final EIR. No New Information Showing Ability to Reduce Significant Effects in the Final EIR The analysis above shows that there are no feasible alternatives to the project or additional mitigation measures that must be considered to substantially reduce one or more of the significant effects identified in the Final EIR. 16. Utilities and Service Systems. Would the ProjecL.. a) Exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the applicable Regional Water Qualit~ Control Board? Nolmpact. Approval and implementation of TT15974 will not alter thc type or scale of water uses within thc project site. Consequently, thc quality of the wastcwater generated will not change from previous analysis in the Final EIR and Addendum. Therefore, no impact will occur. b) Require or result in the construction of new water or wastewater treatment facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects? No Impact. The City of Rancho Cucamonga is served by thc IEUA for treatment and disposal of commercial and industrial wastcwater. IEUA provides primary and secondary sewage treatment and reclamation, and maintains and operates sewer collection systems. IEUA operates three regional sewage treatment facilities. The closest of these is Regional Plant 1 (RP-1) in the City of Ontario. This facility currently treats approximately 34 million gallons per day, but has a capacity to treat 44 million gallons per day upon final expansion of the facility. Regional Plan (RP4), also operated by IEUA, is located on Etiwanda Avenue to the east of the project site between San Bemardino Avenue and Arrow Highway. This new plant was operational in February 1998 and is processing about 7 million gallons of effluent per day. Either of these facilities could serve the project site dependent on project phasing; however, RP-1 would be the most likely treatment facility. Approval and implementation of TT15974 would not alter the previous assessment of the Final EIR or Addendum; therefore, no impact is anticipated.

C) Require or result in the construction of new storm water drainage facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects ? No Impact. Approval and implementation of TT15974 will not alter the type or scale of uses previously analyzed in the Final EIR and Addendum for the Victoria Arbors Village project site. Ctmstmction and/or expansion of storm water drainage facilities beyond that identified in the Final EIR is not required. The study for final design of these systems, to determine size and location, will be a condition of development. Therefore, impacts greater than those identified in the Final EIR will not occur. d) Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project from existing entitlements and resources, or are new or expanded entitlements needed? No Impact. Water would be supplied to the project site by the Cucamonga County Water District (CCWD). CCWD is a member of the Inland Empire Utility Agency, which in mm is a member agency of the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD). The City of Rancho Cucamonga receives a majority of its water from well water obtained from the Chino Groundwater Basin and tunnel water (Cucamonga, Day and Deer Canyons). The MWD treatment plant and reservoir on Foothill Boulevard treats MWD and tunnel water for use in Rancho Cucamonga. Implementation of TT15974 will not alter the type or scale of uses within the project site. Therefore, no increase in the demand for water supply or delivery facilities will occur. Therefore, impacts greater than those identified in the Final Ell>, will not occur. e) Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment provider, which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project's projected demand in addition to the provider's existing commitments? No Impact. Approval and implementation of TT15974 will not alter the type or scale of uses within the project site and would not result in increased sewer flows or increased pressure on existing or planned wastewater treatment facilities by more than 4.14 percent over the previous project. Construction and/or expansion of wastewater treatment facilities will not be required as a result TI'15974. Therefore, no impact related to this issue will occur. 3-59 2/21/0, C:\WlNNTXTemporary lnternet Files\OLIC2\lnitia} Study.wpd ¢...~ ~)/~ Be served by a landfill with sufficient permitted capacity to accommodate the project's solid waste disposal needs? No Impact. Trash disposal service in the City of Rancho Cucamonga is provided by three separate collection services. Trash is currently disposed of at the Mid-Valley Refuse Site located 0.5 mile north of Highland Avenue and 0.25 mile east of Sierra Avenue in the City of Rialto. The Mid-Valley Landfill is permitted to ultimately accept 40 million tons of solid waste, an amount which is not expected to be reached until 2038. Development of TT15974 will not significantly impact current operations or the expected lifetime of this landfill. Therefore, approval of TT15974 will not alter any previous assessment in the Final Ell>, or Addendum. No impact related to this issue will occur. g) Comply with federal, state, and local statutes and regulations related to solid waste? No Impact. The transport and disposal of solid waste generated by the proposed project will be conducted in accordance with all applicable local, state, and federal solid waste standards as well as provisions/programs related to recycling. No impact related to this issue is anticipated. 17. Mandatory Findings of Significance a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory ? Less than Significant Impact/No Changes or New Information Requiring Preparation of an EIR. Based on the biological studies conducted during preparation of the Final EIR, no rare, threatened, or endangered species was detected within the limits of the project site. Approval and implementation of the TT15974 will not significantly alter the type or scale of uses from that identified in the Final EIR and Addendum. While the proposed project would result in the loss of potential habitat for rare, threatened, or endangered species, potential impacts associated with the loss of this habitat would be no greater than that identified in the Final EIR. Adherence to biological mitigation measures provided in the Final EIR will reduce any impacts to a less than significant level. No historic building or structure, archeological, and/or cultural resource were identified within the limits of the project site. While, the cultural assessment prepared for the Victoria Arbors Village EIR did not identify on-site cultural, archaeological, or paleontological resources, the Final EIR identified the potential presence of subsurface archaeological, paleontological, and historic resources on-site. Adherence to mitigation measures included in the Final EIR would reduce potential impacts associated with cultural, historic, or paleontological resources to a significance level equal to that identified in the Final EIR. b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)? No Impact. Cumulative impacts associated with development of the project site have been previously identified in the Final EIR and include: Traffic: The traffic analysis examines project impacts on the forecast year 2015 traffic conditions within the project study area. As such, ttie analysis considers the contribution of project traffic and resulting impacts on cumulative traffic conditions at intersections and on freeways in the project vicinity. Implementation of identified mitigation measures will off-set the project's cumulative contribution to potential cumulative traffic impacts. Air Quality: The cumulative study area for air quality impacts encompasses the Basin, which is designated non-attainment for ozone, PMm and carbon monoxide. Operational emissions associated with the proposed project in conjunction with build out of the City's General Plan, will result in significant, cumulative air quality impact with the Basin. Emissions of NOx and ROC from construction of the proposed project would cumulatively contribute to regional ozone formation. Because the Basin is a nonattainment zone for ozone, this is a significant air quality impact. Emissions of CO and fugitive dust from construction activity would result in mostly localized air quality locations would add to the project related localized air quality impacts. Biology: It is concluded that the proposed project will res~qt in cumulative impacts to biological resources in the region through the loss of coastal sage scrub/alluvial fan scrub, potential habitat for sensitive species, and potential habitat linkage values. The degree or magnitude of the cumulative impacts is basically speculative as habitat values of the site are currently low while other values are potential and would require other land management actions in order to be realized. Approval of TT15974 will not significantly alter the type or scale cf permitted uses within the project site. Implementation of TT15974 will not result in cumulative impacts greater than that identified in the Final EIR. Therefore, no impact associated with this issue will occur. c) Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? No Impact. Potential impacts associated with development of the Victoria Arbors Village have been identified and (where necessary) mitigated for in the Final EIR. Approval and implementation of TT15974 will not alter this assessment. Development of TT15974 will not result in direct or indirect impacts greater than that identified in the Final EIR; therefore, no impact associated with this issue will occur.

This program has been prepared in compliance with the State law to ensure compliance with mitigati{m measures adopted for the project by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. Assembly Bill 3180 (Public Resources Code, Paragraph 201081.6), effective January 1,1989, requires adoption of a report:ing or monitoring program for those conditions of approval placed on a project to mitigate or ave.id adverse effects on the environment. The law states that the monitoring or reporting program shall be designed to ensure compliance during project implementation. The monitoring program contains the following elements: 1. Conditions of approval that act as impact mitigation measures are recorded with the action and procedure necessary to ensure compliance. In some instances, one action, such as plan review, may be used to verify implementation of several conditions of approval. 2. A procedure of compliance and verification has been outlined for each action necessary. This procedure designates who will take action, what action will be taken and when, and to whom and when compliance will be reported. 3. The program has been designed to be flexible. As monitoring progresses, changes to compliance procedures may be necessary based on recomxnendations by those responsible for the program.

THIS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made and entered into as of this __ day of , 2001, by and between the CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA, a municipal corporation and general law city ("City"), and CUCAMONGA 220, L.P., a California limited partnership ("Owner") . WI TNES SETH: A. The lack of certainty in the approval of development projects can result in a waste of resources, escalate the cost of housing and other development, and discourage investment in and commitment to comprehensive planning which would make maximum efficient utilization of resources at the least economic cost to the public. B. California Government Code Sections 65864-65869.5 (the "Development Agreement Statute") were therefore enacted authorizing a municipality to enter into binding development agreements with persons having legal or equitable interests in real property. C. Owner has a legal or equitable interest in certain real property located in City more particularly described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference (the "Property"). For purposes of this Agreement, the Property shall not include the approximately 55 acres currently controlled by Owner generally south of the proposed extension of Church Street and east of the proposed extension of Day Creek Boulevard ("55 Acre Exclusion") that is contemplated to be sold to the Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency (~'Agency"). D. Subject to the provisions of the ~'Project Approvals" (as defined below), Owner's project will constitute approximately 246 acres that will be developed as depicted on the illustrative plan attached hereto as Exhibit "B" (the '~Project"). E. The Project is located within an approximately 440 acre area that includes the Property and that is undergoing a master planning process (the "Master Planning Process"). The Master Planning Process includes amendments to the relevant sections of the Cit__y's General Plan (the "G~eneral Plan"), the Victoria Community Plan (the ~Victoria Community Plan"), and the Etiwanda Specific Plan (the "Etiwanda Specific Plan"). The Victoria Lakes Section of the Victoria Community Plan has been renamed Victoria Arbors with certain other modifications. The City Council and Planning Commission approved the Conceptual Plan ("Conceptual Plan") on July 19, 2000. The amendments to the General Plan, the Victoria Community Plan and the Etiwanda Specific Plan were approved on , 2000. Owner and City agree that future non-substantive amendments to the General Plan, Victoria Community Plan, and Etiwanda Specific Plan may be necessary to ensurc continue to maintain consistency and appropriate cross-references between and among the documents. F. One key objective of the Master Planning Process is the development of a regional commercial center, including a regional mall and related uses on land adjacent to the Project ("Regional Commercial Center"), including the 55 Acre Exclusion. The Regional Commercial Center, including the 55 Acre Exclusion is depicted in the attached Exhibit "C." G. On July 9, 1999, the City Council (the "Council"), after making appropriate findings, certified a Final Environmental Impact Report entitled pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act, such Final Environmental Impact Report being more specifically identified as EIR No. State Clearinghouse No. (the "EIR"). On , the City Council adopted an addendum to the previously certified EIR with regard to the Project Approvals and this Development Agreement. H. Concurrently with adoption of the Ordinance approving this Agreement, the City has approved Tentative Tract Map No. __with Conditions of Approval ("Tentative Map"), and the Victoria Arbors Master Plan ("Master Plan"). A depiction of the Tentative Map is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "D." (Collectively, the General Plan Amendment No. , Victoria Community Plan Amendment No. VCP-98-01, Etiwanda ............. ~ Specific Plan Amendment No. ESPA 98-01, the Tentative Map, and the Master Plan are hereinafter referred to as the '~Project Approvals".) In addition to the Project Approvals, Owner shall process and City shall approve and cause to be recorded a large-lot subdivision map for f~nancing purposes only which shall offer for dedication necessary easements for public rights-of-way and related infrastructure but shall not require infrastructure improvements. The large lot parcel map shall be recorded prior to close of escrow on the 55 Acre Exclusion. I. Development of the Project will further the comprehensive planning objectives contained within City's ...... ~ ~ General Plan, as amended, the Victoria Community Plan, as amended, the Etiwanda Specific Plan, as amended and will result in public benefits, including, among others, the following: 1. Fulfilling long-term economic and social goals for City and the community; 2. Providing fiscal benefits to City's General Fund; 3. Providing both short-term construction employment and long-term permanent employment within City; 4. Financing and constructing significant infrastructure improvements that will serve the region and the community; 5. Phasing the construction of public infrastructure improvements with private development; 6. Providing housing which will help to satisfy City's obligation to meet City's share of regional housing needs; 7. Enhancing City's active and passive recreational elements; 8. Significantly enhance the possibility that the goals of the Master Planning Process will be realized, including the development of a Regional Commercial Center, including a mall site that will substantially benefit the community; 9. Facilitating the development of an elementary school site within the Project; and, 10. Facilitating the development of a 7.5 acre park within the Project. J. The Parties have entered into this Agreement based in part on the Owner's intent to sell and the City Redevelopment Agency's ("Agency") intent to buy the 55 Acre Exclusion for use as an integral part of the Regional Commercial Center. Owner is selling the 55 Acre Exclusion to Agency pursuant to that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated , 2001. K. For the reasons recited herein, City has determined that the Project is a development for which a development agreement is appropriate under the Development Agreement Statute. L. The Council has determined that this Agreement is consistent with the General Plan, the Victoria Community Plan the Etiwanda Specific Plan and the Master Plan and specifically has determined that this Agreement is fair, just and reasonable, and City has concluded that the economic interests of its citizens and the public health, safety and welfare will be best served by entering into this Agreement. M. The Planning Commission of City (the "Planning Co~nmission") held duly noticed public hearings on this Agreement on , 2001. N. The Council, after a duly noticed hearing, adopted Ordinance No. __, approving this Agreement, which ordinance will become effective on (the "Effective Date"). NOW, THEREFORE, with reference to the foregoing recitals and in consideration of the mutual promises, obligations and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows: SECTION I.

In consideration of the benefits resulting from this Project, including, but not limited to, increasing the likelihood of development of the Regional Commercial Center as a result of the proposed sale of the 55 Acre Exclusion to the Agency, the significant infrastructure improvements that Owner will be contributing to and in accordance with the infrastructure phasing plan (the "Infrastructure Phasing Plan") set forth in the attached Exhibit "E," and the benefit to the community that the development of the Project represents, all of which will provide a significant overall benefit to City, City has agreed to enter into this Agreement. SECTION III. PROJECT DEVELOPMENT. A. Permitted Uses. The parties hereby agree that, for the term of this Agreement, the permitted uses, the density and intensity of use, the maximum height and size of proposed buildings, provisions for reservation or dedication of land for public purposes and location of public improvements, shall be those set forth in this Agreement, the Project Approvals and the "Applicable Rules" (as hereinafter defined). B. Rules, Regulations and Official Policies. 1. Applicable Rules. The parties hereby agree that, for the term of this Agreement, the rules, regulations and official policies governing permitted uses, governing density, and governing design, improvement and specifications applicable to development of the Property shall be those rules, regulations and official policies in force at the time of the Effective Date, including, without limitation, the Project Approvals (collectively, the ~'Applicable Rules"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude City from applying changes occurring from time to time in the Uniform Building Code, Uniform Electrical Code, Uniform Fire Code, Uniform Mechanical Code, or Uniform Plumbing Code, provided that such changes are generally applicable to all property in City. Prior to the Effective Date, City and Owner shall use reasonable efforts to identify two identical sets of the Applicable Rules, one set for City and one set for Owner, so that if it becomes necessary in the future to refer to any of the Applicable Rules, there will be a common set of the Applicable Rules available to both parties. 2. Conflicting Enactments. Any change in the Applicable Rules, including, without limitation, any change in any applicable general, community plan, area or specific plan, zoning, subdivision rule or regulation, adopted or becoming effective after the Effective Date, including, without limitation, any such change by means of an ordinance, initiative, resolution, policy, order or moratorium, initiated or instituted for any reason whatsoever and adopted by the Council, the Planning commission or any other board, agency, commission or department of City, or any officer or employee thereof, or by the electorate, as the case may be, which would, absent this Agreement, otherwise be applicable to the Property and which would conflict in any way with or be more restrictive than the Applicable Rules ("Subsequent Rules"), shall not be applied by City to the Property. Owner may give City written notice of its election to have any Subsequent Rule applied to the Property, in which case such Subsequent Rule shall be deemed to be an Applicable Rule. 3. Setbacks, Design Guidelines, Landscape Guidelines and Park Improvements. The front, side, and rear setbacks for alii dwelling units and commercial structures shall be consistent with the Applicable Rules. Design guidelines, landscape guidelines and park improvements shall conform to the Applicable Rules. C. Future Approvals. Any development of the Property shall require all discretionary approvals required by the Applicable Rules (collectively, the "Future Approvals"). Upon granting of any of the Future Approvals, as they may be amended from time to time, they shall become part of the Applicable Rules, and Owner shall have a "vested right", as that term is defined under California law, in and to such Future Approvals by virtue of this Agreement. D. Permitted Fees. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, and specifically excluding fees set by entities not controlled by City that are collected by City, City shall only charge and impose those fees and exactions, including, without limitation, dedications and any other fee or tax (including excise, construction or any other tax) relating to development or the privilege of developing, which are in effect on a City- wide basis as of the Effective Date. Owner shall only be responsible for payment of those development fees listed in the attached Exhibit "F" to be calculated as indicated therein. This Section shall not be construed to limit the authority of City to charge normal and customary application, processing, and permit fees for land use approvals, building permits and other similar permits, which fees are designed to reimburse City's expenses attributable to such application, processing and permitting and are in force and effect on a City-wide basis at such time as said approvals and permits are granted by City. E. Permitted Conditions. Provided Owner's applications for any Future Approvals are consistent with this Agreement and the Applicable Rules, City shall grant in a timely manner the Future Approvals in accordance with the Applicable Rules and authorize development of the Property for the uses and to the density of the Project described herein. City shall only have the right to impose conditions consistent with those conditions indicated on the attached Exhibit ~G," which include the Conditions of Approval for the Tentative Map and any applicable EIR Mitigation Measures as set forth in Exhibit G, in approving subsequent tentative subdivision maps. F. Term of Map(s) and Other Project Approvals. Pursuant to California Government Code Sections 66452.6(a) and 65863.9, the term of any subdivision or parcel map that may be processed on all or any portion of the Property and the term of each of the Project Approvals shall be extended for a period of time through the scheduled termination date of this Agreement as set forth in Section V.K below. G. Timing of Development. Because the California Supreme Court held in Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo, 37 Cal.3d 465 (1984), that the failure of the parties therein to provide for the timing of development resu].ted in a later- adopted initiative restricting the timing of development to prevail over the parties' agreement, it is the parties' intent to cure that deficiency by acknowledging and providing that, subject to infrastructure phasing requirements that are set forth in the Infrastructure Phasing Plan, Owner shall have the right (without obligation) to develop the Property in such order and at such rate and at such times as Owner deems appropriate within the exercise of its subjective business judgment. H. Moratorium. No City-imposed moratorium or other limitation (whether relating to the rate, timing or sequencing of the development or construction of all or any part of the Property, whether imposed by ordinance, initiative, resolution, policy, order or otherwise, and whether enacted by the Council, an agency of City, the electorate, or otherwise) affecting parcel or subdivision maps (whether tentative, vesting tentative or final), building permits, occupancy certificates or other entitlements to use or service (including, without limitation, water and sewer) approved, issued or granted within City, or portions of City, shall apply to the Property to the extent such moratorium or other limitation is in conflict with this Agreement; provided, however, the provisions of this Section shall not affect City's compliance with moratoria or other limitations mandated by other governmental agencies or court- imposed moratoria or other limitations. I. Vesting of Owner's Rights. The rights and entitlements granted to Owner pursuant to this Agreement shall be and constitute "vested rights" or the equivalent of "vested rights", as that term is defined under California law applicable to the development of land or property and the right of a public entity to regulate or control such development of land or property, including, without limitation, vested rights in and to building permits and certificates of occupancy. J. Infrastructure Capacity. Subject to Owner's installation of infrastructure in accordance with the requirements of the Project Approvals and the Infrastructure Phasing Plan, City hereby acknowledges that it will have sufficient capacity in its infrastructure and services, including, without limitation, traffic circulation, storm drainage, flood control, and sanitation service to accommodate the Project. To the extent that City renders such services or provides such utilities, City hereby agrees that it will serve the Project and that there shall be no restriction on hookups or service for the Project, except for reasons beyond City's control. K. Infrastructure Phasing Flexibility. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Infrastructure Phasing Plan or the provisions of any of the Project Approvals, Owner and City recognize that economic and market conditions may necessitate changing the order in which the infrastructure covered by the Infrastructure Phasing Plan is constructed. Therefore, City and Owner hereby agree that should it become necessary or desirable to develop any portion of the Project's infrastructure in an order that varies from the order set forth in the Infrastructure Phasing Plan, Owner and City shall collaborate in good faith and City shall permit any reasonable variation requested by Owner so long as the variation continues to ensure adequate infrastructure consistent with the Phasing Plan. The City Manager shall have the authority to grant variations pursuant to this section. L. Development Agreement/Project Approvals. In the event of any inconsistency between any Project Approval and this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. SECTION IV. COOPERATION/IMPLeMeNTATION. A. Further Assurances; Covenant to Sign Documents. Each party shall take all actions and do all things, and execute, with acknowledgment or affidavit, if required, any and all documents and writings, that may be necessary or proper to achieve the purposes and objectives of this Agreement. B. Public Financing of Improvements. Owner may, from time to time, request City to establish one or more assessment and/or community facilities districts and/or integrated financing districts (~'IFD") and/or to adopt one or more development fees (pursuant to the provisions of Government Code Section 66000, et seq.) and/or enter into a reimbursement agreement pursuant to the IFD or the Government Code to finance infrastructure, public facilities and/or fees (~Financing Mechanism") that may be required in connection with the development of the Project. City agrees to sponsor and diligently implement such Financing Mechanism, subject to all applicable legal requirements. City agrees to use its best efforts to implement such requests subject to applicable state and federal law and subject to the following: 1. General Parameters. a) Upon written request of the City, Owner will advance amounts necessary to pay all costs and expenses of City to evaluate and structure any Financing Mechanism solely for the benefit of Owner's Property, to the end that City will not be obligated to pay any costs related to the formation or implementation of any Financing Mechanism from its own general funds. City staff will meet with the Owner to establish a preliminary budget for such costs, and will confer with Owner from time to time as to any necessary modifications to that budget. b) Any Financing Mechanism will provide for the reimbursement to Owner of any advances by Owner described in subparagraph a above, and any other costs incurred by Owner that are related to the Financing Mechanism, such as the costs of legal counsel, special tax consultants, engineers, etc. Owner agrees to promptly submit to City a detailed accounting of all such other costs incurred by Owner at such time.as Owner makes application for reimbursement. c) City shall consult with Owner prior to engaging any consultant (including bond counsel, ~nderwriters, appraisers, market absorption analysts, financial advisors, special tax consultant, assessment engineer and other consultants deemed necessary to accomplish any financing) and Owner shall be allowed an opportunity to provide input on each proposed consultant. C. Cost Sharing. 1. Cost Sharing Methodology. In connection, with Owner's development of the Project, Owner will be required by the Project Approvals to construct infrastructure improvements containing supplemental size, capacity, number and/or length ("Master Infrastructure Improvements") that will serve other properties in the vicinity of the Property, in.cludin~ the Regional Commercial Center ("Benefited Properties"). City has, with Owner's concurrence, identified Master Infrastructure Improvements and estimated Master Infrastructure Improvement costs for which the Property and the Benefited Properties will be responsible as set forth in the ~Infrastructure Cost Estimate Breakdown" attached hereto as Exhibit ~H" and incorporated herein by reference. In addition, City has, with Owner's concurrence, determined a percentage allocation reflecting the percentage of the Master Infrastructure Improvements for which the Property and the Benefited Properties are responsible as set forth in the ~Master Infrastructure Percentage Allocation" attached hereto as Exhibit '~I" and incorporated herein by reference. City and Owner hereby agree that the "Infrastructure Cost Estimate Breakdown" and the "Master Infrastructure Percentage Allocation" constitute the basis by which cost sharing is determined. City hereby agrees that it will, (a) upon Owner's reasonable request and (b) on its own initiative periodically, review and update the ~'Infrastructure Cost Estimate Breakdown" in order to ensure that the costs reflected therein are sufficient to cover the costs to construct the Master Infrastructure Improvements. 2. Funding for Master Infrastructure Improvements Beyond Project Allocable Share. [Needs to incorporate process for funding of Master Infrastructure Improvements not allocable to Project consistent with final Purchase and Sale Agreement with Agency]. D. Processing During Third Party Litigation. The filing of any third party lawsuit(s) against City or Owner relating to this Agreement, the Project Approvals or to other development issues affecting the Property shall not delay or stop the development, processing or construction of the Project, approval of the Future Approvals, or issuance of ~inistcrlal Approvalz"Ministerial Approvals" (as hereinafter defined), unless the third party obtains a court order preventing the activity. City shall not stipulate to the issuance of any such 32294/744272vll vs. 744272v10 17 order. For purposes of this Agreement the term "Ministerial Approvals" shall be defined to mean approvals rec[uirinq the determination of conformance with the Appl~icable Rules, including, without limitation, site plans, design review, development plans, land use plans, grading plans, improvement plans, building plans and specifications, and ministerial issuance of one or more final maps, zoning clearances, grading permits, improvement permits, wall permits, building permits, lot line adjustments, encroachment permits, conditional and temporary use permits, certificates of use and occupancy and approvals and entitlements and related matters as may be necessary for the completion of the development of the Property. E. State, Federal or Case Law. Where any state, federal or case law allows City to exercise any discretion or take any act with respect to that law, City shall, in an expeditious and timely manner, at the earliest possible time, (a) exercise its discretion in such a way as to be consistent with, and carry out the terms of, this Agreement and (b) take such other actions as may be necessary to carry out in good faith the terms of this Agreement. Fi Other Governmental Bodies. To the extent that City, the Council, Planning Commission or any other City agency constitutes and sits as any other board or agency, it shall not take any action that conflicts with City's obligations under this Agreement. G. Defense of Agreement. City shall take all actions which are necessary or advisable to uphold the validity and enforceability of this Agreement. If this Agreement is adjudicated or determined to be invalid or unenforceable, City agrees, subject to all legal requirements, to consider modifications to this Agreement to render it valid and enforceable to the extent permitted by applicable law. H. Desiqn/Development Standards. Notwithstanding the provisions of the Applicable Rules, the following design/development standards shall apply to the Project: 1. This Agreement shall grant owner the vested right to develop the Project consistent with the Project Approvals. 2. With regard to Planning Areas # and # depicted on Exhibit "B", Owner shall have the right to develop the Planning Areas consistent with a land-use designation which allows 5-10 single family detached dwelling units per acre. However, the City shall not reduce the density in Planning Areas #__ and #__ below the number of units that could be placed in these Planning Areas assuming lot sizes of 53 feet by 100 feet. 3. The Project shall be subject to design review, consistent with the Master Plan. As part of the design review process, the City shall not require larger lots nor allow less units than those allowed pursuant to this Agreement, including Exhibit "D." 4. Easements dedicated for pedestrian use shall be permitted to include easements for underground drainage, water, sewer, gas, electricity, telephone, cable and other utilities ~' and facilities so long as they do not unreasonably interfere with pedestrian use; and I. Day Creek Channel. City shall diligently and in good faith support negotiations with the County Flood Control District to provide the absolute right for the Project to connect with Day Creek Channel without creating any detention/retention basin. J. Condemnation. If necessary, and subject to all applicable legal requirements, including holding of a public hearing for purposes of consideration of a resolution of necessity, City shall use its power of eminent domain to, or otherwise acquire, including but not limited to, necessary ~ offsite rights-of-way and easement areas required for construction of roads, grading, temporary detention basins and offsite infrastructure to serve the Project consistent with Prcject Approval. K. Improvement Plans. City shall help coordinate and expedite improvement plans through the California Department of Transportation and other State or Federal agencies, as required. L. Foothill Storm Drain.

In addition, (a) the issuance of any bonds under any Financing Mechanism that would affect the 55 Acre Exclusion shall be: conditioned upon (and may be concurrent with) the date the 55 Acre Exclusion is transferred to the Agency and (b) no building permit shall be issued to Owner until the earlier of (i) January 1, 2002 or (ii) the date the 55 Acre Exclusion is transferred to the Agency.

Ail of the provisions, agreements, rights, powers, standards, terms, covenants and obligations contained in this Agreement shall be binding upon the parties and their respective heirs, successors {by merger, reorganization, consolidation or otherwise) and assigns, devisees, administrators, representatives, lessees, and all other persons acquiring the Property, or any portion thereof, or any interest therein, whether by operation of law or in any manner whatsoever, and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective heirs, successors and assigns. Ail of the provisions of this Agreement shall constitute covenants running with the land. B. Transfers and Assignments. 1. Right to Assign. Owner shall have the right to sell, assign or transfer all or portions of the real property comprising the Property to any person at any time during the term of this Agreement. 2. Liabilities Upon Transfer. Upon the delegation of all duties and obligations and the sale, transfer or assignment of all or any portion of the Property, Owner shall be released from its obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Property, or portion thereof, so transferred arising subsequent to the effective date of such transfer if (i). Owner has provided to City ten days' written notice of such transfer and (ii) the transferee has agreed in writing to be subject to all of the provisions hereof applicable to the portion of the Property so transferred. Upon any transfer of any portion of the Property and the express assumption of Owner's obligations under this Agreement by such transferee, City agrees to look solely to the transferee for compliance by such transferee with the provisions of this Agreement as such provisions relate to the portion of the Property acquired by such transferee. A default by any transferee shall only affect that portion of the Property owned by such transferee and shall not cancel or diminish in any way Owner's rights hereunder with respect to any portion of the Property not owned by such transferee. The transferee shall be responsible for the reporting and annual review requirements relating to the portion of the Property owned by such transferee, and any amendment to this Agreement between City and a transferee shall only affect the portion of the Property owned by such transferee. C. Mortgagee Protection. The parties hereto agree that this Agreement shall not prevent or limit Owner, in any manner, at Owner's sole discretion, from encumbering the Property or any portion thereof or any improvement thereon by any mortgage, deed of trust or other security device securing financing with respect to the Property. City acknowledges that the lender(s) providing such financing may require certain Agreement interpretations and modifications and agrees upon request, from time to time, to meet with Owner and representatives of such lender(s) to negotiate in good faith any such request for interpretation or modification. City will not unreasonably withhold its consent to any such requested interpretation or modification provided such interpretation or modification is consistent with the intent and purposes of this Agreement. Any mortgagee of a mortgage or a beneficiary of a deed of trust ("Mortgagee") of the Property shall be entitled to the following rights and privileges: 1. Neither entering into this Agreement nor a breach of this Agreement shall defeat, render invalid, diminish, or impair the lien of any mortgage or deed of ~srust on the Property made in good faith and for value. 2. If City timely receives a request from a Mortgagee requesting a copy of any notice of default given to Owner under the terms of this Agreement, City shall provide a copy of that notice to the Mortgagee within ten days of sending the notice of default to Owner. The Mortgagee shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure the default during the remaining cure period allowed such party under this Agreement. 3. Any Mortgagee who comes into possession of the Property, or any part thereof, pursuant to foreclosure of the mortgage or deed of trust, or deed in lieu of such foreclosure, shall take the Property, or part thereof, subject to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, in no event shall such Mortgagee be liable for any defaults or monetary obligations of Owner arising prior to acquisition of title to the Property by such Mortgagee, except that any such Mortgagee or its successors or assigns shall not be entitled to a building permit or occupancy certificate until all delinquent and current fees and other monetary obligations due under this Agreement for the Property, or portion thereof, acquired by such Mortgagee have been paid to City. D. Statement of Compliance. Within thirty days following any written request which either City or Owner may make from time to time, the other shall execute and deliver to the requesting party a statement certifying that to the City's Cit¥'s/Aqency's knowledge: (1) this Agreement is unmodified and in full force and effect or, if there have been modifications hereto, that this Agreement is in full force and effect, as modified, and stating the date and nature of such modifications; (2) there are no current uncured defaults under this Agreement or specifying the dates and nature of any such defaults; and (3) any other reasonable information requested.. The failure to deliver such statement within such time shall be conclusive upon the party which fails to deliver such statement that this Agreement is in full force and effect without modification and ~hat there are no uncured defaults in the performance of the requesting party. The City Manager shall be authorized to execute any such statement. E. Default. Failure by City or Owner to perform any term or provision of this Agreement for a period of thirty days from the receipt of written notice thereof from the other shall constitute a default under this Agreement, subject to extensions of time by mutual consent in writing. Said. notice shall specify in detail the nature of the alleged default and the manner in which said default may be satisfactorily cured. If the nature of the alleged default is such that it cannot reasonably be cured within such 30-day period, the commencement of the cure within such time period and the diligent prosecution to completion of the cure shall be deemed a cure within such period. Subject to the foregoing, after notice and expiration of the 30-day period without cure, the notifying party, at its option, may institute legal proceedings pursuant to this Agreement and/or give notice of intent to t,~rminate this Agreement pursuant to Government Code Section 65868. Following such notice of intent to terminate, the matter shall be scheduled for consideration and review by the Council within thirty calendar days in the manner set forth in Government Code Sections 65867 and 65868. Following consideration of the evidence presented in said review before the Council and a determination that a default exists, the party alleging the default by the other party may give written notice of termination of this Agreement to the other party. F. Annual Review. Pursuant to Government Code Section 65865.1, throughout the term of this Agreement, good faith compliance with the terms of this Agreement by Owner shall be reviewed by the Planning Commission at the regularly scheduled Planning Commission meeting next following each annual anniversary of the Effective Date. If as a result of such review, City reasonably determines, on the basis of substantial evidence presented at such meeting, that Owner has not complied in good faith with the terms and conditions hereof, City shall provide written notice thereof ("Notice of Non-Compliance"), stating in specific detail and specific reasons for such finding. After City delivers the Notice of Non-Compliance, Owner shall have the right to cure such non-compliance as provided in Section V.E. above. In the event that Owner does not timely cure the non-compliance after a Notice of Non- Compliance is delivered by City or, if during the period which Owner must cure such default, Owner ceases to make reasonable efforts to effect such cure, City may proceed to terminate this Agreement on ten days' prior written notice to Owner in accordance with the termination procedure set forth in Section V.E. above. G. Default by City. In the event City defaults (as defined in Section V.E. herein) under the terms of this Agreement, Owner shall have all rights and remedies provided herein or under applicable law, including the specific performance of this Agreement. H. Legal Action. Any party may, in addition to any other rights or remedies, institute legal action to cure, correct or remedy any default, enforce any covenant or agreement herein, enjoin any threatened or attempted violation hereof, or enforce by specific performance the obligations and rights of the parties hereto. Pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 638, et seq., all legal actions shall be heard by a referee who shall be a retired judge from either the San Bernardino County Superior Court, the California Court of Appeal, the United States District Court or the United States Court of Appeals, provided that the selected referee shall have experience in resolving land use and real property disputes. Owner and City shall agree upon a.single referee who shall then try all issues, whether of fact or law, and report a finding and judgment thereon and issue all legal and equitable relief appropriate 'under the circumstances of the controversy before such referee. If Owner and City are unable to agree on a referee within ten days of a written request to do so by either party hereto, either party may seek to have one appointed pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 640. The cost of such proceeding shall initially be borne equally by the parties. Any referee selected pursuant to this Section V.H. shall be considered a temporary judge appointed pursuant to Article 6, section 21 of the California Constitution. I. Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Failure by City or Owner to insist upon the strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement, irrespective of the len§th of time for which such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver of the right to demand strict compliance with this Agreement in the future. No waiver by City or Owner of a default or breach of any other party shall be effective or binding upon it unless made in writing, and no such waiver shall be implied from any omission by City or O~rner to take any action with respect to such default or breach. No express written waiver of any defaults or breach shall affect any other default or breach, or cover any other period of time, other than any default or breach and/or period of time specified in such express waiver. One or more written waivers of a default or breach under any provision of this Agreement shall not be a waiver of any subsequent default or breach, and the performance of the same or any other term or provision contained in this Agreement. Subject to notice of default and opportunity to cure under Section V.E., all of the remedies permitted or available under this Agreement, at law or in equity, shall be cumulative and alternative, and invocation of any such right or remedy shall not constitute a waiver or election of remedies with respect to any other permitted or available right or remedy. J. Future Litigation Expenses. 1. Payment to Prevailing Party. If City or Owner brings an action or proceeding (including, without limitation, any motion, order to show cause, cross-complaint, counterclaim, or third-party claim) by reason of defaults, breaches, tortious acts, or otherwise arising out of this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to its costs and expenses of suit including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and expert witness fees. 2. Scope of Fees. Attorneys' fees under this Section shall include attorneys' fees on any appeal and, in addition, a party entitled to attorneys' fees shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with such action. In addition to the foregoing award of attorneys' fees to the prevailing party, the prevailing party in any lawsuit shall be entitled to its attorneys' fees incurred in any post-judgment proceedings to collect or enforce the judgment. This provision is separate and several and shall' survive the merger of this Agreement into any judgment on this Agreement. K. Term. r~,^~ ......... · ......... ~ ......

Immediately after enactment or promulgation of any such new law, city and Owner shall meet and confer in good faith to determine the feasibility of any such modification or suspension based on the effect such modification or suspension would have on the purposes and intent of this Agreement. Owner and/or City shall have the right to challenge the new law preventing compliance with the terms of this Agreement, and in the event such challenge is successful, this Agreement shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect.

Related file: Tentative Tract 15963. Rudy Zeledon, Assistant Planner, presented the staff report. He indicated that two residents were in the audience and wished to discuss their concerns. D~ Planning Commission Minutes -2- February 9, 2000 Chairman McNiel observed that the applicant had appeared reluctant to enhance the buildings as requested by the Design Review Committee. He asked what assurance the City had that the applicant would do as the City desires. Commissioner Stewart concurred with Chairman McNiel's concerns. Brad Bullet, City Planner, stated he understood the Commission's concerns and he suggested they ask the applicant for assurance they are willing to comply with conditions. Chairman McNiel indicated the Design Review Committee and the applicant could not reach agreement. Commissioner Macias asked why the item was before the Commission. Chairman McNiel responded that the applicant requested that the matter be forwarded to the full Commission. He opened the public headng. Bill Kimble, 15838 Aurora Crest Drive, Whittier, indicated he is one of the developers and owners. He stated they had some thinking to do because they had six to seven months of upgrading and new requirements were added each time they met. He stated they reviewed the conditions and agreed to accept them. Commissioner Macias asked that Mr. Kimble review the conditions on a point-by-point basis and indicate if they are in agreement. Mr. Kimble agreed to all conditions and said they were proud of their buildings. Commissioner Macias asked Mr. Kimble if he had ever built in Rancho Cucamonga. Mr. Kimble responded that he had not but they had received awards in other communities. Chairman McNiel indicated that Rancho Cucamonga prides itself on being a step above. Commissioner Stewad said she was still concerned because the items that Mr. Kimble had just agreed to were the same items that he was asked to agree to at the Design Review Committee meeting. She stressed that the City is looking for enhancements, not what has already been done. Mr. Kimble said he was willing to sign a letter of agreement if necessary and that his word was good. Commissioner Macias asked why he had not agreed to the items at the Design Review stage. He was concerned that if the Commission approved the project, staff would be pressured because the Planning Commission would be out of the picture. Commissioner Mannerino felt that if staff feels it is not successful in getting compliance with the conditions, the matter could be referred back to the Commission. Mr. Buller noted that if the applicant fails to meet the conditions, staff would not sign off on building permits. He said staff felt the project has reached the point where it will work. He suggested the Commission may wish to add a condition that the project be referred back to the Design Review Committee if staff feels there is not compliance with the conditions. Commissioner Mannerino agreed that would be acceptable and noted that the Committee could refer the matter back to the full Commission if necessary. Planning Commission Minutes -3- February 9, 2000 Laura Hope, stated she lives just south of the project. She indicated they built their home four years ago adjacent to a vacant lot. She asked that their current wood fence be replaced with a block wall now that the adjacent property will be developed because her bedroom windows face the development. Chairman McNiel asked if the wood fence in located on her property. Ms. Hope confirmed that it is. She said she had indicated her concerns at the first meeting. She noted they are across the street from the development and that the read is now seldom used but will be turned into a street. She expressed appreciation that the homes will be single story. Chairman McNiel asked if her house is part of a tract. Ms. Hope replied that it was custom built. Commissioner Macias asked why she thought the developer should build a wall on her property. Ms. Hope replied that there is currently only an access road whicl'~ is used by one other parcel but it will now be a street with 13 homes taking access from it. She said they are concerned about headlights and noise. Commissioner Macias indicated he thought that is something that other residents have to deal with as well. Dan Coleman, Principal Planner, noted that the grading plan submitted by the developer shows removal of the fence as it is in the public dght of way and. it will be at the current fence line. Commissioner Macias asked if she knew her fence would be rernoved. Ms. Hope replied that she did not. She said there had been some talk about removing some trees and widening the access road. Commissioner Macias asked if it was intended that the developer build a new fence. Mr. Kimble believed there was a mistake on the engineer's plan. He said they did not intend to remove the fence because it would not be any advantage to the new development. He said the fence could be right on the property line. Dan James, Senior Civil Engineer, stated there will be a difference in elevation from her property to the new sidewalk. He said the current wood fence could not be used as a retaining wall. Commissioner Mannedno stated the applicant would have to modify the grading plans to reflect the removal of the fence. He stated that no one who owns a house adjacent to a vacant lot should expect that the lot will not be developed. He felt that if the grad,lng plan calls for removal of the fence, the fence should be replaced. He thought the homeowner and developer should work together to build a block wall and suggested they should share the cost. Mr. Bullet noted that it is standard policy for the Planning Commission to require block walls on comer side yards adjacent to public streets. He observed the Commission commonly requires developers to construct a perimeter wall around a tract and the applicant is responsible for puffing in the wall along shared property even were there is an existing fence. Kevin Ennis, Assistant City Attorney noted that if the development will have an additional impact such as additional noise, lights, etc;. it is permissible for the Commission to impose conditions to mitigate the impacts. Planning Commission Minutes -4- February 9, 2000 Commissioner Mannedno asked how many linear feet of wall would be involved. Mr. Coleman indicated it would be approximately 100 feet. He suggested modifying the standard condition to require the 6-foot decorative perimeter block wall be continued on the south side of Liberty Street if the existing wood fence is removed. John Wang, 8316 Red Oak Street, #101, Rancho Cucamonga, stated he owned some property to the north of the tract and had been told by the City that he could not develop his property to take access from Archibald Avenue when he submitted a Preliminary Review in 1988. He noted he lost some of the property dudng the recession. He asked if the policy has been changed so that the parcels he now owns could take access from Archibald Avenue. He asked if his parcel will be permitted access to Archibald Avenue when the existing house is tom down and replaced. He indicated he would like the answer on record if the City will allow such access. He stated it would be prohibitively expensive to connect to the sewer in Archibald Avenue and indicated he thought the applicant's project should be designed with two cul-de-sacs coming off London Avenue, one at the south end and the other across the north of the property being developed. He noted that would give them the ability to develop the lots to the north. He said an alternative suggested by the City was to take access from Banyan Street by purchasing access dghts for a corddor through the Metropolitan Water District (MWD) dght of way. He reported MWD wants to sell an access corridor of 120 feet by 12 feet wide with a chain link fence along either side of the corridor. He did not think that would be an attractive entrance to a home. He asked who will pay for the development of Banyan Street as this developer owns parcels between the proposed development and the MWD right of way. He said that at the first neighborhood meeting, the applicant had indicated he would process an easement through the MWD property, but by the second meeting the applicant had deleted plans to develop the parcel adjacent to Mr. Wang's. He said the applicant indicated at that time that he would give Mr. Wang an easement along the north of the property currently being developed so that he could connect utilities to London Avenue, but then backed out by saying that his engineer recommended the not sign an easement. Mr. Wang said he is also a developer but he considers adjacent properties. He asked if the City has the right to help him get an easement for access to his properbj. George Taunton, PKT Properties, LLC, 684 Dundee Court, Brea, stated they have had an on-going two-way conversation with Mr. Wang. He noted that he had purchased property that Mr. Wang lost during the recession. He said their first meeting with Mr. Wang took place right after they bought the property. He confirmed they had brought up the concern about the sewer at the neighborhood meeting. He stated that it would cost $160,000 to improve the street through the MWD right of way and it would be economically unfeasible to develop the street in order to develop a 1-acre parcel. He said he had offered to grant Mr. Wang a utility easement along the south property line of the remaining two parcels when they file a parcel map for that property if Mr. Wang's engineer would draw the easement; however, Mr. Wang merely sent him a grant deed to grant the easement. He said they met with MWD and it would be possible to hook up Mr. Wang's existing house to the sewer in Archibald Avenue. He noted there is a 30-foot easement across the property granted by the pdor owner. He said there is a 5 foot drop if they put in a cul-de-sac where Mr. Wang suggested. He said they would also be concerned because they would have to cover the storm drain in order to place the street there. He reported they have been working with the Engineering Division on howto design the subdivision in order to make the project work. He commented it would not make economic sense for them to underground utilities and to rebuild Archibald Avenue to artedal standards in order to have two cul-de-sacs. He suggested they would be willing to work on getting the easement from MWD along with Mr. Wang. Mr. Wang said his engineer prepared an easement but PKT said their engineer recommended they not sign it. Hearing no further testimony, Chairman McNiel closed the public hearing. Planning Commission Minutes -5- February 9, 2000 Mr. James indicated that the existing single family house along Archibald Avenue takes access from Amhibald Avenue. He reported it is the goal of the City to limit access to Archibald Avenue and a master plan has been developed. He indicated that Mr. Wang owns two parcels which currently have access to Amhibald Avenue and they could continue to have access to Archibald Avenue; however, any additional lots resulting from further subdivision should take access from Banyan Street. Mr. James commented on Mr. Wang's proposal for two cul-de-sacs by saying that the developer considered that layout but chose instead to drop development plans for their northern parcel He noted that the developer owns that parcel but it is a separate parcel and the City cannot force the developer to build it at the same time as the current project. With respect to Mr. Wang's question as to who will improve Banyan Street, Mr. James said i1: will be tied to the development of either the applicant's property or Mr. Wang's property. As for Mr. Wang's assertion that it would be impractical to run a sewer lateral to Archibald Avenue, Mr. James conceded that it looked difficult, but said he had not run the calculations. He did not feel the City can force the applicant to grant an easement. Mr. Ennis stated that it did not seem reasonable that the City should require the developer to give up some of his property dghts to benefit Mr. Wang. He said the applicant's proposal does not impact Mr. Wang's property, it is only that the applicant did not select an alternative that would be more beneficial to an off-site property owner. Chairman McNiel asked if creation of this tract map would create an unnecessarily undue hardship on any adjacent property owner. Mr. James replied that it would not and if the City required the alternate layout of two cul-de-sacs, that would create an undue hardship because that layout would require removal of an existing house to the south of this development. Chairman McNiel asked if approval of the project would result in any landlocked parcels. Mr. James said it would not. Mr. Ennis noted that creation of the subdivision would not put Mr. Wang's property in any worse condition than it now is. He noted the design does not maximize the benefit for Mr. Wang but it also does not make conditions any worse than what currently exists. Mr. Buller confirmed that approval of this subdivision would leave limited solutions for developing the adjacent parcels. Chairman McNiel said that each time any project is approwed, it begins to limit adjacent opportunities. Commissioner Mannerino felt the applicant is entitled to develop the subdivision as they wish. He stated that if the grading plan requires removal of the wooden fence.=, then that area of grading is the perimeter of the project and the developer should construct a block wall fence in compliance with the Commission's policy. Commissioner Macias felt the wooden fence should be replaced with a block wall consistent with the balance of the project only if the project impacts the wooden fence. He did not think it should be a requirement only for aesthetic purposes. He said that if the project does not impact the wooden fence, the neighboring homeowner has the right to retain the wooden fence or build another fence. He did not believe this project would leave Mr. Wang any worse off. Commissioner Stewart agreed with Commissioners Mannerino and Macias. Planning Commission Minutes -6- February 9, 2000 Chairman McNiel concurred with Commissioner Macias with respect to the wall. He noted it is a perimeter fence but it is on the opposite side of the street and there would be no fence built if there were no house there. He said that if the current wooden fence is impacted, it should be replaced with a block wall consistent with the remainder of the project. He agreed that nothing would change with respect to Mr. Wang's property. He noted the Design Review Committee recommended denial of the project and staff had worked with the applicant to get a design the City can accept. He indicated he expected that development would be above the minimum and anything less would not be acceptable. Motion: Moved by Mannedno, seconded by Macias, to issue a Negative Declaration and adopt the resolutions approving Tentative Tract 15963 and Development Review 99-42 with modification to require a block wall along the south side of Liberty Street if the existing wood fence is removed and that compliance with the conditions is to be to the satisfaction of the City Planner orthe project is to be returned to the Design Review Committee.

SC-10-00 7 ~ .. ,~ ~ ~.METROPOLITAN WATER DISTRICT OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA Office of the General Manager Planning Division City of Rancho Cucamonga c~.~ P.O. Box 807 c~~-.-/~..~g~ Rancho Cucamongn, CA 91729 Dear Sir/Madam: Notice of Public Hearing for Tentative Map15278 (APN: 201-251-049) The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (Metropolitan) has received a Notice of Public Heating (Notice) for Tentative Map15278 (APN: 201-251-049) in the City of Rancho Cucamonga (City). The applicant, PKT Properties LLC, proposes to subdivide 1.10 acres into three parcels in the Low Residential District (2-4 dwelling units per acre), located at the northwest corner of Banyan Street and London Avenue. This letter contains our response as a potentially affected public agency. Our review of the Notice indicates that Metropolitan's Foothill Feeder-Rialto Pipeline is in the area of the proposed project. The enclosed map shows this facility in relation to the proposed project. It will be necessary for the City to consider this facility in its project planning. In order to avoid potential conflicts with Metropolitan's right-of-way, we request that any preliminary engineering design drawings or improvement plans for any activity in the area of Metropolitan's pipelines and rights-of-way be submitted for our review and written approval. You may obtain detailed prints of drawings of Metropolitan's pipelines and rights-of-way by calling Metropolitan's Substructures Information Line at (213) 217-6564. To assist you in preparing plans that are compatible with Metropolitan~s facilities and easements, we have enclosed a copy of the "Guidelines for Developments in the Area of Facilities, Fee Properties, and/or Easements of The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California." Please note that all submitted designs or plans must dearly identify Metropolitan's facilities and fights-of-way. 700 N. Alameda Street, Los Angeles, California 90012 · Mailing address: Box 54153, Los Angeles, California 90054-0153 · Telephone (213) 21.7-6000 THE M~TROPOLITAN WATEB OISTRI£T 0£ $OLITHEBN ~LIFOI~NIA Rancho Cucamonga Planning Division Page 2 February 20, 2001 Metropolitan requests that the City analyze the consistency of the proposed project with the growth management plan adopted by the Southern California A~,~sociation of Governments (SCAG). Metropolitan uses SCAG's population, housing and employment projections to determine future water demand. Development above these forecast provisions may increase demand on Metropolitan's resources and facilities beyond that miticipated. Additionally, Metropolitan encourages projects within its service area to include water conservation measures. Water conservation, reclaimed water use, and groundwater recharge programs are integral components to regional water supply planning. Metropolitan supports mitigation measures such as using water efficient fixtures, drought-tolerant landscaping, and reclaimed water to offset any increase in water use associated with the proposed project. We appreciate the opportunity to provide input to your planning process and if we can be of' further assistance, please contact me at (213) 217-6242. Very truly yours, ~' Laura J. Simonek Principal Environmental Specialist DTF Enclosures Di F Guidelines for Developments in the Area of Facilities, Fee Properties, and/or Easements of The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California 1. Introduction a. The following general guidelines should be followed for the design of proposed facilities and developments in the area of Metropolitan's facilities, fee . properties, and/or easements. b. We require that 3 copies of your tentative and final record maps, grading, paving, street improvement, landscape, storm drain, and utility plans be ~ubmitted for our review and written approval as they pertain to Metropolitan's facilities, fee properties and/or easements, prior to the commencement of any construction work. 2. Plans, Parcel and Tract Maps The following are Metropolitan's requirements for the identification of its facilities, fee properties, and/or easements on your plans, parcel maps and tract maps: a. Metropolitan's fee properties and/or easements and its pipelines and other facilities must be fully shown and identified as Metropolitan's on all applicable plans. b. ~etropolitan's fee properties and/or easements must be shown'and identified as Metropolitan's with the official recording data on all applicable parcel and tract maps. c. Metropolitan's fee properties and/or easements and existing survey monuments must be dimensionally tied to the parcel or tract boundaries. d. Metropolitan's records of surveys must be referenced on the parcel and tract maps. 3. Maintenance of Access Alon9 Metropolitan's Rights_of_Wa¥ a. Proposed cut or fill slopes exceeding 10 percent are normally not allowed within Metropolitan's fee properties or easements. This is required to facilitate the use of construction and maintenance equipment, and provide access to its aboveground and belowground facilities. b. We require that 16-foot-wide commercial-type driveway approaches be constructed on both sides of all streets crossing Metropolitan's rights-of-way. Openings are required in any median island. Access ramps, if necessary, must be at least 16,feet-wide. Grades of ramps are normally not allowed to exceed 10 percent. If the slope of an access ramp must exceed 10 percent due to the topography, the ramp must be paved. We require a 40-foot-long level area on the driveway approach to access ramps where the ramp meets the street. At Metropolitan's fee properties, we may require fences and gates. c. The terms of Metropolitan's permanent easement deeds normally preclude the building or maintenance of structures of any nature or kind within its easements, to ensure safety and avoid interference with operation and maintenance of Metropolitan's pipelines or'other facilities. Metropolitan must have vehicular access along the easements at all times for inspection, patrolling, and for maintenance of the pipelines and other facilities on a routine basis. We require a 20-foot-wide clear zone around all above-ground facilities for this routine access. This clear zone should slope away from our facility on a grade not to exceed 2 percent.. We must also have access along the easements with construction equipment. An example of this is shown on Figure 1. d. The footings of any proposed buildings adjacent to Metropolitan's fee properties and/or easements must not encroach into the fee property or easement or impose additional loading on Metropolitan's pipelines or other facilities therein. A typical situation is shown on Figure 2. Prints of the detail plans of the footings for any building or structure adjacent to the fee property or easement must be submitted for our review and written approval as they pertain to the pipeline or other facilities therein. Also, roof eaves of buildings adjacent to the easement or fee property must not overhang into the fee property or easement area. - 3 - el Metropolitan's pipelines and other facilities, e.g. structures, manholes, equipment, survey monuments, etc. within its fee properties and/or easements must be protected from damage by the easement holder on Metropolitan's property or the property owner where Metropolitan has an easement, at no expense to Metropolitan. If the facility is a cathodic protection station it shall be located prior to any grading or excavation. The exact location, description and way of protection shall be shown on the.related plans for the easement area. 4. Easements on Metropolitan's Property a. We encourage the use of Metropolitan's fee rights- of-way by governmental agencies for public street and utility purposes, provided that such use does not interfere with Metropolitan's use of the property, the entire width of the property is accepted into the agency's public street system and fair market value is paid for such use of the right-of-way. b. Please contact the Director of Metropolitan's Right of Way and Land Division, telephone (213) 250-6302, concerning easements for landscaping, street, storm drain, sewer, water or other public facilities proposed within Metropolitan's fee properties. A map and legal description of the requested easements must be submitted. Also, written evidence.must be submitted that shows the city or county will accept the easement for the specific purposes into its public system. The grant of the easement will be subject to Metropoli~an's rights to use its land for water pipelines and related purposes to the same extent as if such grant had not been made. There will be a charge for the easement. Please note that, if entry is required on the property prior to issuance of the easement, an entry permit must be obtained. There will also be a charge for the entry permit. 5. Landscaping Metropolitan's landscape guidelines for its fee properties and/or easements are as follows: a. A green belt may be allowed within Metropolitan's fee property or easement. b. All landscape plans shall show the location and size of Metropolitan's fee property and/or easement and the location and size of Metropolitan's pipeline or other facilities therein. C. Absolutely no trees will be allowed within 15 feet of the centerline of Metropolitan's existing or future pipelines and facilities. d. Deep-rooted trees are prohibited within Metropolitan,s fee properties and/or easements. Shallow- rooted trees are the only trees allowed. The shallow-rooted trees will not be permitted any closer than 15 feet from the centerline of the pipeline, and such trees shall not be taller than 25 feet with a root spread no greater than 20 feet in diameter at maturity. Shrubs, bushes, vines, and ground cover are permitted, but larger shrubs and bushes should not be planted directly over our pipeline. Turf is acceptable. We require submittal of landscape plans for Metropolitan's prior review and written approval (See Figure 3). · e. The landscape plans must contain provisions for Metropolitan's vehicular access at all times along its rights-of-way to its pipelines or facilities therein. Gates capable of accepting Metropolitan's locks are required in any fences across its rights-of-way. Also, any walks or drainage facilities across its access route must be constructed to AASHTO H-20 loading standards. f. Rights to landscape any of Metropolitan's fee properties must be acquired from its Right of Way and Land Division. Appropriate entry pe~its must be obtained prior to any entry on its property. ¶?here will be a charge for any entry permit or easements required. 6. Fencing Metropolitan requires that perimeter fencing of its fee properties and facilities be constructed of universal chain' link, 6 feet in height and topped with 3 strands of barbed wire angled upward and outward at a 45 degree angle or an approved equal for a total fence height of 7 feet. Suitable substitute fencing may be considered by Metropolitan. (Please see Figure 5 for details). 7. Utilities in Metropolitan's Fee Properties and/or Easement~ or Adjacent to Its Pipeline in Public ~ .~treets Metropolitan's policy for the alinement of utilities permitted within its fee properties and/or easements and street rights-of-way is as follows: a.' Permanent structures, including catch basins, manholes, power poles, telephone riser boxes, etc., shall not be located within its fee properties and/or easements. b. We request that permanent utility structures within public streets, in which Metropolitan's facilities are constructed under the Metropolitan Water District Act, be placed as far from our pipeline as possible, but not closer than 5 feet from the outside of our pipeline. c. The installation of utilities over or under Metropolitan's pipeline(s) must be in accordance with the requirements shown on the enclosed prints of Drawings Nos. C-11632 and C-9547. Whenever possible we request a minimum of one foot clearance between Metropolitan's pipe and your facility. Temporary support of Metrgpolitan's pipe may also be required at undercrossings of its pipe in an open trench. The temporary support plans must be reviewed and approved by Metropolitan. d. Lateral utility crossings of Metropolitan's pipelines must be as perpendicular to its pipeline alinement as practical. Prior to any excavation our pipeline shall be located manually and any excavation within two feet of our pipeline must be done by hand. This shall be noted on the appropriate drawings. e. Utilities constructed longitudinally within Metropolitan's rights-of-way must be.located outside the theoretical trench prism for-uncovering its pipeline and must be located parallel to and as close to its rights- of-way lines as practical. f. When piping is jacked or installed in jacked casing or tunnel under Metropolitan's pipe, there must be at least two feet of vertical clearance between the bottom of Metropolitan's pipe and the top of the jacked pipe, jacked casing or tunnel. We also require that detail drawings of the shoring for the jacking or tunneling pits be submitted for our review and approval. Provisions must be made to grout any voids around the exterior of the jacked pipe, jacked casing or tunnel. If the piping is installed in a jacked casing or tunnel the annular space between the piping and the jacked casing or tunnel must be filled with grout. - 6 - g. Overhead electrical and telephone line requirements: 1) Conductor clearances are to conform to the California State Public Utilities Commission, General Order 95, for Overhead Electrical Line Construction or at a greater clearance if required by Metropolitan. Under no circumstances shall clearance be less than 35 feet. 2) A marker must be attached to the power pole showing the ground clearance and line voltage, to help prevent damage to your facilities during maintenance or other work being done in the area. 3) Line clearance over Metropolitan's fee properties and/or easements shall be shown on the drawing to indicate the lowest point of the line under the most adverse conditions including consideration of sag, wind load, temperature change, and support type. We require that overhead lines be located at least 30 feet laterally away from all above-ground structures on the pipelines. 4) When underground electrical conduits, 120 volts or greater, are installed within Metropolitan's fee property and/or easement, the conduits must be incased in a minimum of three inches of red concrete. Where possible, above ground warning signs must also be placed at the right-of-way lines where the conduits enter and exit. the right-of-way. h. '~he construction of sewerlines in Metropolitan's fee properties and/or easements must conform to the California Department of Health Services Criteria for the Separation of Water Mains and Sanitary Services and the local City or County Health Code Ordinance as it relates to installation of sewers in the vicinity of pressure waterlines. The construction of sewerlines should also conform to these standards in street rights-of- way. i. Cross sections shall be provided for all pipeline crossings showing Me~ropolitan's fee p~operty and/or easement limits and the location of our pipeline(s). The exact locations of the crossing pipelines and their elevations shall be marked on as-built drawings for our information. - 7 - j.' Potholing of Metropolitan's pipeline is required if the vertical clearance between a utility and Metropolitan's pipeline is indicated on the plan to be one foot or less. If the indicated clearance is between one and two feet, potholing is suggested. Metropolitan will provide a representative to assists others in locating and identifying its pipeline. Two-working days notice is requested. k. Adequate shoring and bracing is r~quired for the full depth of the trench when the excavation encroaches within the zone shown on Figure 4. 1. The location of utilities within Metropolitan's fee property and/or easement shall be plainly marked to help prevent damage during maintenance or other work done in the area. Detectable tape over buried utilities should be placed a minimum of 12 inches above the utility and shall conform to the following requirements: 1) Water pipeline: A two-inch blue warning tape shall be imprinted with: "CAUTION BURIED WATER PIPELINE" 2) Gas, oil, or chemical pipeline: A two-inch yellow warning tape shall be imprinted with: "CAUTION BURIED PIPELINE" 3) Sewer or storm drain pipeline: A two-ihch green warning tape shall be imprinted with: "CAUTION BURIED PIPELINE" 4) Electric, street lighting, or traffic signals conduit: A two-inch red warning tape shall be imprinted with: "CAUTION BURIED CONDUIT" 5) Telephone, Or television conduit: A two-inch orange warning tape shall be imprinted with: "CAUTION BURIED CONDUIT" - 8 m. Cathodic Protection requirements: 1) If there is a cathodic protection station for Metropolitan's pipeline in the area of the proposed work, it shall be located prior to any grading or excavation. The exact location, description and manner of protection shall be shown on all applicable plans. Please contact Metropolitan's Corrosion Engineering Section, located at Metropolitan's F. E. Weymouth Softening and Filtration Plant, 700 North Moreno Avenue, La Verne, California 91750, telephone (714) 593-7474, for the locations of Metropolitan's cathodic protection stations. 2) If an induced-current cathodic protection system is to be installed on any pipeline crossing Metropolitan's pipeline, please contact Mr. Wayne E. Risner at (714) 593-7474 or (213) 250-5085. He will review the proposed system and determine if any conflicts will arise with the existing cathodic protection systems installed by Metropolitan. 3) Within Metropolitan's rights-of-way, pipelines and carrier pipes (casings) shall be coated with an approved protective coating to conform to Metropolitan's requirements, and shall be maintained in a neat and orderly condition as directed by Metropolitan. The application and monitoring of cathodic protection on the pipeline and casing shall conform to Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 195. .4) If a steel carrier pipe (casing) is used: (a) Cathodic protection shall be provided by use of a sacrificial magnesium anode (a sketch showing the cathodic protection details can be provided for the designers information). (b) The steel carrier pipe shall be protected with a coal tar enamel coating inside and out in accordance with AW-WA C203.specification. n. All trenches shall be excavated to comply with the CAL/OSHA Construction Safety Orders, Article 6, beginning with Sections 1539 through 1547. Trench backfill shall be placed in 8-inch lifts and shall be compacted to 95 percent relative compaction (ASTM D698) across roadways and through protective dikes. Trench backfill elsewhere will be compacted to 90 percent relative compaction (ASTM D698). - 9 - o. Control cables connected with the operation of Metropolitan's system are buried within streets, its fee properties and/or easements. The locations and elevations of these cables shall be shown on the drawings. The drawings shall note that prior to any excavation in the area, the control cables shall be located and measures shall be taken by the contractor to protect the cables in place. p. Metropolitan is a member of Under~round Service Alert (USA). The contractor (excavator) shall contact USA at 1-800-422-4133 (Southern California) at least 48 hours prior to starting any excavation work. The contractor will be liable for any damage to Metropolitan's facilities as a result of the construction. 8. Paramount Right Facilities constructed within Metropolitan's fee properties and/or easements shall be subject to the paramount right of Metropolitan to use its fee properties and/or easements for the purpose for which they were acquired. If at any time Metropolitan or its assigns should, in the exercise of their rights, find it necessary to remove any of the facilities from the fee properties and/or easements, such removal and replacement shall be at the expense of the owner of the facility. 9. Modification of Metropolitan's Facilities When ~ manhole or other of Metropolitan's facilities must be modified to accommodate your construction or recons- truction, Metropolitan will modify the facilities with its forces. This should be noted on the construction plans. The estimated cost to perform this modification will be given to you and we will require a deposit for this amount before the work is performed. Once the deposit is received, we will schedule the work. Our forces will coordinate the work with your contractor. Our final billing will be based on actual cost incurred, and will include materials, construction, engineering plan review, inspection, and administrative overhead charges calculated in accordance with Metropolitan's standard accounting practices. If the cost is less than the deposit, a refund will be made; however, if the cost exceeds the deposit, an invoice will be forwarded for payment of the additional amount. - 10- 10. Drainage a. Residential or commercial development typically increases and concentrates the peak storm water runoff as well as the total yearly storm runoff from an area, thereby increasing the requirements for storm drain facilities downstream of the development. Also, throughout the year water from landscape irrigation, car washing, and other outdoor domestic water uses flows into the storm drainage system resulting in weed abatement, insect infestation, obstructed access and other problems. Therefore, it is Metropolitan's usual practice not to approve plans that show discharge of drainage from developments onto its fee properties and/or easements. b. If water must be carried across or discharged onto Metropolitan's fee properties and/or easements, Metropolitan will insist that plans for development provide that it be carried by closed conduit or lined open channel approved in writing by Metropolitan. Also the drainage facilities must be maintained by others, e.g., city, county, homeowners association, etc. If the development proposes changes to existing drainage features, then the developer shall make provisions to provide for replacement and these changes'must be approved by Metropoli in writing. 11. Construction Coordination During construction, Metropolitan's field representative will make periodic inspections. We request that a stipulation be added to the plans or specifications for notification of Mr. of Metropolitan's Operations Services Branch, telephone (213) 250- , at least two working .days prior to any work in the vicinity of our facilities. ].2. Pipeline Loading Restrictions a. Metropolitan's pipelines and conduits vary in structural strength, and some are not adequate for AASHTO H-20 loading. Therefore, specific loads over the specific sections of pipe or conduit must be reviewed and approved by Metropolitan. However, Metropolitan's pipelines are typically adequate for AASHTO H-20 loading provided that the cover over the pipeline is not less than four feet or the cover is not substantially increased. If the temporary cover over the pipeline during construction is between three and four feet, equipment must restricted to that which - 11- imposes loads no greater than AASHTO H-10. If the cover is between two and three feet, equipment must be restricted to that of a Caterpillar D-4 tract-type tractor. If the cover is less than two feet, only hand equipment may be used. Also, if the contractor plans to use any equipment over Metropolitan's pipeline which will impose loads greater than AASHTO H-20, it will be necessary to submit the specifications of such equipment for our review and approval at least one week prior to its use. More restrictive requirements may apply to the loading guideline over the San Diego Pipelines 1 and 2, portions of the Orange County Feeder, and the Colorado River Aqueduct. Please contact us for loading restrictions on all of Metropolitan's pipelines and conduits. b. The existing cover over the pipeline shall be maintained unless Metropolitan determines that proposed changes do not pose a hazard to the integrity of the pipeline or an impediment to its maintenance. 13. Blasting a. At least 20 days prior to the start of any drilling for rock excavation blasting, or any blasting, in the vicinity of Metropolitan's facilities, a two-part preliminary conceptual plan shall be submitted to Metropolitan as follows: b. Part 1 of the conceptual plan shall include a complete summary of proposed transportation, handling, storage, add use of explosions. c. Part 2 shall include the proposed general concept for blasting, including controlled blasting techniques and controls of noise, fly rock, airblast, and ground vibration.. 14. CEQA Requirements a. When Environmental Documents Have Not Been Prepared 1) Regulations implementing the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) require that Metropolitan have an opportunity to consult with the agency or consultants preparing any environmental documentation. We are required to review and consider the environmental effects of the project as shown in the Negative Declaration or Environmental Impact Report (EIR) prepared for your project before committing Metropolitan to approve your request. - 12- 2) In order to ensure compliance with the regulations implementing CEQA where Metropolitan is not the Lead Agency, the following minimum procedures to ensure compliance with the Act have been established: a) Metropolitan shall be timely advised of any determination that a Categorical Exemption applies to the project. The Lead Agency is to advise Metropolitan that it and other agencies participating in the project have complied with the requirements of CEQA prior to Metropolitan's participation. b) Metropolitan is to be consulted during the preparation of the Negative Declaration or .EIR. c) Metropolitan is to review and submit any necessary comments on the Negative Declaration or draft EIR. d) Metropolitan is to be indemnified for any costs or liability arising out of any violation of any laws or regulations including but not limited to the California Environmental Quality Act and its implementing regulations. b. When Environmental Documents Have Been Prepared if environmental documents have been prepared for your project, please furnish us a copy for our review and files in a timely manner so that we may have sufficient time to review and comment. The following steps must also be accomplished: 1) The Lead Agency is to advise Metropolitan that it and other agencies participating in the project have complied with the requirements of CEQA prior to Metropolitan's participation. 2) You must agree to inde~sify Metropolitan, its officers, engineers, and agents for any costs or liability arising out of any violation of any laws or regulations including but not limited to the California Environmental Quality Act and its implementing regulations. 15. Metropolitan's Plan-Review Cost a. An engineering review of your proposed facilities and developments and the preparation of a letter response - 13- giving'Metropolitan's comments, requirements and/or approval that will require 8 man-hours or less of effort is typically performed at no cost to the developer, unless a facility must be modified where Metropolitan has superior rights. If an engineering review and letter response requires more than 8 man-hours of effort by Metropolitan to determine if the proposed facility or development is compatible with its facilities, or if modifications to Metropolitan's manhole(s) or other facilities will be required, then all of Metropolitan'$ costs associated with the project must be paid by the developer, unless the developer has superior rights. b. A deposit of funds w~ll be required from the developer before Metropolitan can begin its detailed engineering plan review that will exceed 8 hours. The amount of the required deposit will be determined after a cursory review of the plans for the proposed development. c. Metropolitan's final billing will be based on actual cost incurred, and will include engineering plan review, inspection, materials, construction, and administrative overhead charges calculated in accordance with Metropolitan's standard accounting practices. If the cost is less than the deposit, a refund will be made; however, if the cost exceeds the deposit, an invoice will be forwarded for payment of the additional amount. Additional deposits may be required if the cost of Metropolitan's review exceeds the a~ount of the initial deposit. 16. Caution We advise you that Metropolitan's plan reviews and responses are based upon information available to Metropolitan which was prepared by or on behalf of Metropolitan for general record purposes only. Such information may not be sufficiently detailed or accurate for your purposes. No warranty of any kind, either express or implied, is attached to the information therein conveyed as to its accuracy, and no inference should be drawn from Metropolitan's failure to comment on any aspect of your project.

ANALYSIS: A. General: There are three current entitlements approved for the overall master planned site including Kinko's under construction at the northwest cormer, Haven Wine and Deli along Foothill Boulevard (just west of the Chipotle site), and the Rancho Cucamonga Hotel building to the south. All of these buildings include tower features similar to the theme established by the Applebee's and Buddy's Bistro restaurants. No architectural information is provided for the master planned fast food drive-thru restaurant, only the Chipotle building. The fast food drive-thru building will be subject to a future conditional use permit application. The Chipotle building will utilize bdck veneer application similar to the theme established by Applebee's and the Rancho Cucamonga Hotel buildings and will have a copper tower feature atthe northwest comer facing Foothill Boulevard. The hours of operation are proposed to be from 11:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. seven days a week. The Chipotle restaurant is expected to employ 20 to 30 people with 9 employees per shift. Chipotle intends to serve beer and wine ancillary to their food service. No bar or entertainment is proposed. Ancillary service of beer and wine with food is permitted in this land use district. B. Desi.qn Review Committee: The Design Review Committee (McNiel, Stewart, Henderson) reviewed the project on January 2, 2001, and the Committee requested that the project be revised and brought back for further review. The revised project was reviewed on January 16, 2001 (McNiel, Stewart, Henderson), but the Committee still had concerns about the parking layout. The Committee reviewed the third set of revisions on February 6, 2001, and recommended approval with conditions. Please refer to the attached Design Review Action Agendas for further details. C. Technical Review Committee: The Grading and Technical Review Committees have reviewed the project and recommend approval with conditions outlined in the attached Resolution of Approval. D. Environmental Assessment: The applicant completed Part I of the Initial Study and staff completed Part II (the Environmental Checklist). Staff did not identify any potentially significant impacts related to the project. If the Planning Commission concurs, than issuance of a Negative Declaration would be in order.

Briefly, Chipotle. is a quick-gourmet restaurant founded in 1993 by Steve Ells, a classically trained chef. We serve just two items: fresh, made-to-order burritos and tacos. Ells insists on. using only the finest, freshest ingredients. Most items are made in-house d~aily. The kitchen at Chipotle is operated like those usually only found in much higher-priced restaurants. Chipotle restaurants are open daily from 11:00 am until 10:00 pm, serving,,lunch and dinner. In addition to burritos and tacos, Chipotle serves a small selection of domestic and imported bottled beers and margaritas. Liquor sales generally account for about one percent, of total sales. Each Chipotle restaurant employs from about 20 - 30 people. The: typical ~hift includes about 8 crew members and a manager or supervisor. The design and look of Chipotle is very distinctive. The kitchen a~ad servifig line are completely open allowing people to see their burritos and tacos being prepared. Each Chipotle is designed to fit the available space, so no two are alike. None have drive-through windows. Additional information is available at our website: www.chipotle.com. If you have any questions about Chipotle, please call me at your convenience.

DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 7:10 p.m. Brent Le Count January 2, 2001 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 00-38- CHIPOTLE GRIII - A request to construct a 2,508 square foot restaurant with 495 square feet of outdoor patio area and master plan for a future 2,930 square foot fast food restaurant with,drive thru on 1.3 acres of land in Subarea 7 (Industrial Park), located on the south side of Foothill Boulevard between Aspen Street and Spruce Avenue - APN: 208-352-90, Related File: DR 99-04 (RC Hotel Master Plan). Backqround: The site is part of the 5-acre R.C. Hotel Master Plan that was approved by the Planning Commission on March 23, 1999. The Master Plan specified a single restaurant for the parcel. Now two restaurants are proposed, the Chipotle restaura~nt and a!fast food restaurant to the east. Desi.qn Parameters: The site has frontage on Foothill Boulew~rd with existing curb and gutter improvements in-place. The frontage of the site is also landscaped. The site has been rough graded and slopes at approximately 3 to 4 percent from north to south. There is an existing ddveway spine running north/south and east/west on the overall master plan site and the Chipotle building would lie at the northeast comer of the driveway spine intersection. The Happy Wok restaurant lies to the east and the Terra Vista Shopping Center to the north across Foothill Boulevard. There are three current entitlements approved for the overall master planned site including Kinko's under construction at the northwest comer, Haven Wine and Deli along Foothill Boulevard (just west of the Chipotle site), and the RC Hotel building tO the south. All of these buildings include tower features similar to the theme established by the Applebee's and Buddy's Bistro restaurants. No architectural information is provided for the master planned fast food drive-thru restaurant, only the Chipotle building. ' Staff Comments: The following comments are intended to provide '~n outline for Committee discussion. Maior Issues: The following broad design issues will be the focus of Committee discussion regarding this project: 1. Architecture - Restudy the overall architecture to avoid the large areas of blank stucco walls on the north, east, and south elevations. Use of wall..mounted trellises is acceptable in small areas only but should not be relied upon as the only' form of wall articulation. Extend the copper canopies around the entire building. Extend cornice treatment around all parapets. 2. Architecture - Restudy the north elevation and the northwest comer of the building to better relate to the Foothill Boulevard frontage and the entry statement for the overall site. Consider a tower or other vertical feature to enhance the Foothill frontage. 3. Site Plan - The fast food drive-thru restaurant is planned with the widest;part of the building facing Foothill Boulevard, which creates three major issues: 1 ) the majodty of the ddve- thru lane area will be in direct view of travelers by on Foothill Boulevard contrary to the design policies established by the Planning Commission, 2) creates a space of only 3-4 feet between the drive-thru lane and the Chipolte restaurant, and 3) forces Chipolte to use the drive-thru lane as their loading/unloading access point, which is a direct conflict with the fast food business. Re-orient the building so that the presence of the ddve thru lane is minimized relative to Foothill Boulevard. It is suggested that the building be rotated 90 degrees so that the longer part of the drive thru lane is on the east side of the building. This will also help alleviate the crowded relationship between the east side of the Chipotle building and the west side of the fast food restaurant as currently shown. DRC AGENDA CUP 00-38 - CHIPOTLE GRILL January 2, 2001 Page 2 4. Site Plan - The parking lot arrangement for Chipolte creates an awkward "dead-end," excess pavement, and some parking spaces do not have sufficient room to back-out without hitting other parked cars or would have to back-up approximately 60 feet before being able to turn around and move forward. Secondary Issues: Once all of the major issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues" 1. The chili pepper Iogos on the building comers are signs. The total of 9 signs (3 wall signs + 6 Iogos) exceeds maximum number of signs - Sign Ordinance allows one sign per building face, and allows a maximum of three signs per business. The chili pepper logo could be combined with "Chipolte Mexican Grill" text to form a single sign on each face. 2. Replace 3-inch metal tube railing and woven wire mesh around patio with bdck wall (similar to Applebee's) or higher quality design/materials. 3. Wrap the entire building with bdck wainscoting. 4. The bdck covered towers should return over the roof so that they read as actual towers rather than fancy parapets. 5. All features such as decorative paving, light standards, street furniture, etc., shall match the details established by Applebee's restaurant and Buddies Bistro. 6. Provide dense landscaping surrounding the northern patio for the Chipotle building to help buffer the patio area from Foothill Boulevard and mitigate high seasonal winds. Provide similarly dense landscaping surrounding the western patio area to buffer from the main site entry to the west. 7. Provide decorative driveway paving at site entry points to match the remainder of the master planned site. Policy Issues: The following items are a matter of Planning Commission policy and should be incorporated into the project design without discussion: 1. All roof and ground-mounted equipment shall be fully screened from public view. This will likely require the installation of a Iow wall around the transformer box at the northwest comer of the site (or relocation of the box). 2. All roof drainage features shall be handled inside the building walls. No extedor gutters or downspouts. 3. Provide a minimum of one tree per 30 linear feet of building wall plus one tree per 30 linear feet of property line plus one tree per 3 parking spaces. 4. There shall be no exterior mounted roof access ladder. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the project be revised in light of the above comments and brought back for further review. DRC AGENDA CUP 00-38 - CHIPOTLE GRILL January 2, 2001 Page 3 Desi,qn Review Committee Action: Members Present: Larry McNiel, Pam Stewart, Larry Henderson Staff Planner: Brent Le Count The applicant provided a revised design to the Committee. The Committee requested that the project be further revised in light of staff's comments and the following additional comments and brought back for further review: 1. It is not necessary to provide copper canopies on walls without windows. 2. The copper roofed tower feature on the northwest comer of the building is appropriate but should be restudied to better relate to the rest of the building. It should not look like an after thought or a tacked on feature but instead an integral part of the building. 3. Provide wall insets similar to the Haven Wine and Deli building design approved for the site to the west for the blank stucco wall areas. Wall mounted trellises can then be provided inside the insets. 4. The applicant's revised plan showed the fast food restaurant rotated 90 degrees so that the smaller side faces Foothill Boulevard. The revised layout still had parking circulation conflicts due to odd angular parking space orientation and the awkward "U"-turn movement at the southeast comer. The parking should be restudied to avoid these conflicts. The Committee strongly suggested that the fast food restaurant may be too large to be accommodated on the site and that reducing the square footage will allow for a better parking arrangement. The applicant agreed to make the above changes, including reducing the size of the fast food restaurant. The Committee agreed to allow the case to be scheduled for the next available Design Review meeting with the plans and comments provided at the meeting.

Significant Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Un/ess Than 1. LAND USE AND PI. ANNI~ Would the proposah a) Conflict with general plan designation or ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) zoning? b) Conflict with applicable environmental plans or ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) policies adopted by agencies with jurisdiction over the project? c) Be incompatible with existing land use in the ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) vicinity? Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga CUP 00-38 - CHIPOTLE GRILL Page 3 Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Unless Than Significant Mitigation Significant No d) Disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of an ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) established community? Comments: a-d) The proposed restaurants are designed to conform to the Industrial Park standards of Subarea 7 and to community design policies. No increase in use beyond what is anticipated by the Industrial Park District is proposed, nor is a land use plan amendment proposed. 2. POPULA'I30N l~J~lD HOUSFNG. Would the proposal: a) Cumulatively exceed official regional or local ( ) ( ) (x) population projections? b) Induce substantial growth in an area either ( ) ( ) (x) directly or indirectly (e.g., through projects in an undeveloped area or extension of major infrastructure)? c) Displace existing housing, especially affordable ( ) ( (x) housing? Comments: a-b) The Chipotle Grill restaurant will employ 20 to 30 people, and all employees are expected to be drawn from within the City and/or the local region. This level of employment growth is not in excess of regional or local population projection. c) The site is not designated for future housing development nor does it contain any existing housing. The proposed project will not impact existing housing. 3. GEOLOGIC PROBE~S. Would the proposal result in or expose people to potential impacts involving: a) Fault rupture? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) b) Seismic ground shaking? ( ) ( ) (x) ( ) c) Seismic ground failure, including liquefaction? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) d) Seiche hazards? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) e) Landslides or mudflows? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) f) Erosion, changes in topography, or unstable ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) soil conditions from excavation, grading, or fill? g) Subsidence of the land? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) h) Expansive soils? ( ) ( ) (x) ( ) i) Unique geologic or physical features? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga CUP 00-38 - CHIPOTLI= GRILL Page 4 Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentiarly Unless T~an Comments: a-c) No known faults pass through the site, it is not in an AIquist-Priolo Special Studies Zone, nor is it in the Rancho Cucamonga City Special Study Zone along the Red Hill Fault. The Red Hill Fault, or Etiwanda Avenue Fault, passes within 2 miles north of the site, and the Cucamonga Fault Zone lies approximately 3-1/2 miles northerly. These faults are both capable of producing Mw 6.0-7.0 earthquakes. Also, the San Jacinto fault, capable of producing up to Mw 7.5 earthquakes, is 11 miles northeast of the site and the San Andreas, capable of up to Mw 8.2 earthquakes, is 15 miles northeast of the site. [:_ach of these faults can produce strong ground shaking. Liquefaction could occur at the site if a strong earthquake coincided with an extended period of heavy rains raising the local water table. The site is otherwise located on stable soils. Adhering to the Uniform Building Code will ensure that geologic impacts are less than significant. d) The site is not located near a body of water. e) The site is relatively flat, so landslides or mudflows are not likely to occur. f) The site is relatively flat. Grading will be limited to preparation of approximately I acre for building pad and parking lot development. Grading of the site is necessary to create the necessary slope gradient to allow proper site drainage. g-h) Soil type on-site and in the vicinity is Tujunga-Delhi. These soils are excessively drained, nearly level to moderately sloping soils formed on alluvial fans. They are relatively stable but are subject to liquefa~ction when the water table is relatively shallow. The Building and Safety Division will require a soils report, prior to issuance of building permits. i) The site contains no unique geologic or physical features. 4. WATER. Will the proposal result in: a) Changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, ( ) ( ) (x) ( ) or the rate and amount of surface water runoff? b) Exposure of people or property to water related ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) hazards such as flooding? c) Discharge into surface water or other alteration ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) of surface water quality (e.g., temperature, dissolved oxygen, or turbidity)? d) Changes in the amount of surface water in any ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) water body? e) Changes in currents, or the course or direction ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) of water movements? Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga CUP 00-38 - CHIPOTLE GRILL Page 5 Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Unless f) Change in the quantity of ground waters, either ( ) ( ) (x) through direct additions or withdrawals, or through interception of an aquifer by cuts or excavations, or through substantial loss of groundwater recharge capability? g) Altered direction or rate of flow of groundwater? ( ) ( ) (x) h) Impacts to groundwater quality? ( ) ( ) (x) i) Substantial reduction in the amount of ( ) ( ) (x) groundwater otherwise available for public water supplies? Comments: a) The proposed restaurant project will disturb a surface area of approximately 1 acre that is part of an existing master planned development and has been rough graded. Runoff will be increased due to the hard scape area proposed. This construction will complete the on-site drainage system providing connections to the public storm drain as necessary. b) The site is not located within the 100-year flood plain. c-e) The project site is not located near a body of water. f-i) The project will not interfere with groundwater management practices in the area. 5. AIR QUALITY. Would the proposal: a) Violate any air quality standard or contribute to ( ) ( ) (x) ( ) an existing or projected air quality violation? b) Expose sensitive receptors to pollutants? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) c) Alter air movement, moisture, or temperature, ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) or cause any change in climate? d) Create objectionable odors? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) Comments: a) Potential impacts to air quality are consistent with the Public Health and Safety Super-Element within the Rancho Cucamonga General Plan. During construction, there is the possibility that fugitive dust may be emitted from grading the site; however, the site has already been rough graded and will require little precise grading. Dust emissions could be sufficient to warrant the use of water or other dust palliatives at this site and standard construction and grading practices, including watering the site, will keep dust emissions within less than significant levels. Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga CUP 00-38 - CHIPOTLE GRILL Page 6 Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Unless Than b) The proposed project does not generate pollutants nor will it place sensitive receptors in proximity to pollutants. c) The project is of a small scale and will not alter air movement, moisture, or temperature. d) There may be various food odors generated by the restaurant activity but these are not expected to be considered objectionable to the average person. 6. TRANSPORTATION/CIRCULATION. Would the proposal result in: a) Increased vehicle trips or traffic congestion? ( ) ( ) (x) ( ) b) Hazards to safety from design features (e.g., ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? c) Inadequate emergency access or access to ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) nearby uses? d) Insufficient parking capacity on-site or off-site? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) e) Hazards or barriers for pedestrians or ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) bicyclists? f) Conflicts with adopted policies supporting ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) alternative transportation (e.g., bus turnouts, bicycle racks)? g) Rail or air traffic impacts? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) Comments: a) The proposed restaurants may incrementally increase the traffic in the immediate vicinity because the site is currently vacant. The surrounding streets, including Foothill Boulevard, have been improved to their ultimate width in accordance with Caltrans and City standards. The increase is consistent with that planned for the site and anticipated by the land use designation. The impact is not considered significant. b-c) The proposed restaurants will not create hazards or result in inadequate emergency access to the site. d) The development of restaurants includes the necessary on-site parking to compliment the use as determined by the Development Code standards for restaurants and fast food restaurants. e-f) The proposed restaurants will not impact cyclists or pedestrians nor create transportation-related hazards. The frontage of the site is fully improved with curbs, gutters, sidewalk, and the appropriate turn lanes. Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga CUP 00-38 - CHIPOTLE GRILL Page 7 Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Significant Mitigation Significant No g) Located 5 miles north of the Ontario Airport, the site is offset north of the flight path and will not be dangerous to users or aircraft. 7. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES. Would the proposal result in impacts to: a) Endangered, threatened, or rare species or ( ) ( ) (x) ( ) their habitats (including, but not limited to: plants, fish, insects, animals, and birds)? b) Locally designated species (e.g., heritage trees, ( ) ( ) ( (x) eucalyptus windrow, etc.)? c) Locally designated natural communities (e.g., ( ) ( ) ( (x) eucalyptus grove, sage scrub habitat, etc.)? d) Wetland habitat (e.g., marsh, riparian, and ( ) ( ) ( (x) vernal pool)? e) Wildlife dispersal or migration corridors? ( ) ( ) ( (x) Comments: a) The site was identified by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to be potential habitat for the Delhi Sands Flower Loving Fly (DSF). A habitat assessment was prepared with the R.C. Hotel master plan project. Results of the survey (Tierra Madre consultants, Inc. - December 28, 1998) indicated that the site did not contain adequate DSF habitat since there was a lack of actual Delhi series soil present, the site was disturbed through rough grading practices, and there were not extensive areas of exposed sand. The site has since been re-graded. There are no other unique, rare, or endangered animal species on or near the project site. b-e) The site has been rough graded and is devoid of any natural vegetation and contains no wetlands. The site is surrounded by development and does not function as a wildlife corridor. 8. ENERGY AND MINERAL RESOURCES. Would the proposal: a) Conflict with adopted energy conservation ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) plans? b) Use non-renewable resoumes in a wasteful and ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) inefficient manner? c) Result in the loss of availability of a known ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) mineral resource that would be of future value to the region and the residents of the State? Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga CUP 00-38 - CHIPOTLE GRILL Page 8 I Impact ii°~en~irlli~SignificantImpact Irnoact Less Impact Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Unless Than Significant Mitigation S~gnificant No Comments: a-c) The restaurants are relatively small and will no! result in substantial demand for energy nor will they result in wasteful use of non-renewable resoumes. The project site is not located in a Classified or Designated Mineral Resource area by the State Mining and Geology Board as identified by the San Bernardino County General Plan. 9. HAZARDS. Would the proposal involve: a) A risk of accidental explosion or release of ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) hazardous substances (including, but not limited to: oil, pesticides, chemicals, or radiation)? b) Possible interference with an emergency. ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) response plan or emergency evacuation plan? c) The creation of any health hazard or potential ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) health hazard? d) Exposure of people to existing sources of ( ) () ( ) (x) potential health hazards? e) Increased fire hazard in areas with flammable ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) brush, grass, or trees? Comments: a-e) There is no evidence of commercial or industrial uses other than prior vineyard cultivation. No evidence of discarded drums, containers, hazardous wastes, or discolored soils were observed on site. There is no indication of underground storage tanks or illegal dumping of refuse on-site. The parking layout will permit access to the buildings by fire safety equipment. The site is devoid of vegetation. 10. NOISE. Willtheproposalresultin: a) Increases in existing noise levels? ( ) ( ) (x) ( ) b) Exposure of people to severe noise levels? ( ) ( ) (x) ( ) Comments: a) The project will nominally increase noise levels as the site is currently vacant. However, any increase will not be in excess of the existing ambient noise levels generated by Foothill Boulevard traffic. b) The Chipotle Grill is proposed to have outdoor dining patios near the Foothill Boulevard frontage. These will be surrounded by Iow masonry walls and substantial landscaping to buffer traffic noise. The noise level is not expected to be in excess of that of other outdoor dining patios along Foothill Boulevard such as at the Rubio's Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga CUP 00-38 - CHIPOTLE GRILL Page 9 Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Unless 'than Baja Grill on the north side of Foothill Boulevard across from the site. The impact is not considered significant. 11. PUBLIC SERVICES. Would the proposal have an effect upon or result in a need for new or altered government services in any of the following areas: a) Fire protection? ( ) ( ) (x) b) Police protection? ( ) ( ) (x) c) Schools? ( ) ( ) (x) d) Maintenance of public facilities, including ( ) ( ) (x) mads? e) Other governmental services? ( ) ( ) (x) Comments: a-e) Fire Protection - The site, located on the south side of Foothill Boulevard, is served by a fire station located near Jersey Boulevard and Milliken Avenue, approximately 2 miles from the project site. Standard conditions of approval from the Uniform Building and Fire Codes will be placed on the project. Police Protection - The proposed restaurants may incrementally increase the need for routine police protection services, which is consistent with the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan and Development Impact Fee Schedules adopted by the City Council. Schools - The proposed Chipotle Grill restaurant may incrementally increase the need for schools, due to the increase of 20 to 30 employees to the facility. Development impact fees have been established by the school district for commercial development, which will be payable, prior to building permits being issued. Parks - The proposed Chipotle Grill restaurant may incrementally increase the need for park and recreation services, because 20 to 30 persons will be employed by the facility, a small number of these employees may be new to the community. Public facilities - The proposed Chipotle Grill restaurant may incrementally increase traffic on adjacent streets, consistent with the expectations of the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan and the Industrial Area Specific Plan. The appropriate Development Impact Fees have been adopted by the City Council to address incremental impacts to the citywide circulation system.

( ) ( ) ( ) (x) f) Solid waste disposal? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) g) Local or regional water supplies? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) Comments: a-g) The proposed restaurants will include the construction of 5,308 square feet of building area. Existing utility systems are available to the site. The proposed restaurants will not require major modifications or alterations to the existing utility systems. 13. AESTHETICS. Would the proposal: a) Affect a scenic vista or scenic highway? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) b) Have a demonstrable negative aesthetic ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) effect? c) Create light or glare? ( ) ( ) (x) ( ) Comments: a-b) The project has been designed in accordance with the City of Rancho Cucamonga commemial development design policies and the Drive Thru design policies. c) The project will increase the amount of light in the area as the site is currently vacant. It is standard practice to require a photometric diagram during building permit plan check to ascertain adequate lighting and that lighting will not cast glare on adjacent property or rights of way. 14. CULTURAL RESOURCES. Would the proposah a) Disturb paleontological resources? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) b) Disturb amhaeological resoumes? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) c) Affect historical or cultural resources? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga CUP 00-38 - CHIPOTLE GRILL Page 11 Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Unless T~len d) Have the potential to cause a physical change ( ) ( ( ) (x) that would affect unique ethnic cultural values? e) Restrict existing religious or sacred uses within ( ) ( ( ) (x) the potential impact area? Comments: a-e) No cultural resources have been observed on-site or during recent rough grading of the site. As the proposed development will impact a surface area of approximately 1 acre, and the adjacent and surrounding areas have been disturbed, the likelihood of unearthing cultural resources is minimal and impacts are considered less than significant. 15. RECREATION. Would the proposah a) Increase the demand for neighborhood or ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) regional parks or other recreational facilities? b) Affect existing recreational opportunities? ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) Comments: a) The proposed restaurants may incrementally increase the need for park and recreation services because employment will be increased by 20 to 30 persons. However, the impact is not considered significant. b) The proposed restaurants will have no impact to existing recreational opportunities. The surrounding properties have been developed with either retail, restaurant, or office park development. 16. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE. a) Potential to degrade: Does the project have ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal, or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga CUP 00-38 - CHIPOTLE GRILL Page 12 issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Unless Than b) Short term: Does the project have the potential ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) to achieve short-term, to the disadvantage of long-term, environmental goals? (A short-term impact on the environment is one which occurs in a relatively brief, definitive period of time. Long-term impacts will endure well into the future.) c) Cumulative: Does the project have impacts ( ) ( ) ( ) (x) that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerabJe when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects.) d) Substantial adverse: Does the project have ( ( ) ( ) (x) environmental effects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Comments: a) The proposed restaurants will include pa~rking lot improvements and landscaping. The frontage of the site is already landscaped and the site has been rough graded. No endangered or sensitive species or habitats will be effected by this project. b) The proposed restaurants will impact approximately 1-acre and grading will be performed in order to finish the pad for the building foundations, and development of parking areas. There are no sensitive receptors near the site that would be significantly affected by noise and fugitive dust associated with construction of the facility. c) The project does not have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable. The site is within an industrial park-zoned area that permits this type of commercial restaurant development. The Initial Study did not identify any impacts that could not be mitigated through the City's Standard Conditions of Approval. d) The site and overall project are of a relatively small scale. The proposed restaurants would not cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly. The site is located in an industrial park zoned area along Foothill Boulevard and the proposed use is consistent with this land use designation.

Issues and Supporting Information Sources: u.~ess 1. LAND USE AND PLANNING. Would the proposal: a) Conflict with general plan designation or zoning? ( ) ( ) ( (¢') b) Conflict with applicable environmental plans or ( ) ( ) ('") policies adopted by agencies with jurisdiction over the project? c) Be incompatible with existing land use in the ( ) ('") vicinity? d) Disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of an ( ) (¢') established community? Comments: a-d) The proposed RV and storage project is a permitted use ~n Subarea 8 of the Industrial Area Specific Plan area and is compatible with existing surrounding land uses, in particular the Stadium Self-Storage to the west. The site is currently vacant of structures. Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially UnleSs Than 2. POPULATION AND HOUSING. Would the proposal: a) Cumulatively exceed official regional or local ( ) ( ) ( ) ('~') population projections? b) Induce substantial growth in an area either ( ) ( ) ( ) directly or indirectly (e.g., through projects in an undeveloped area or extension of major infrastructure)? c) Displace existing housing, especially affordable ( ) ( ) ( ) ('/) housing? Comments: a-b) Construction activities at the site will be short-term and will not attract new employees to the area. Operation of the storage facility will require one full-time Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga DR 00-17 Rancho Cucamonga RV and Boat Storage Page 4 management position. The addition of this employee will not create a demand for additional housing. c) The site is currently a Southern California Edison easement and is being used as a wholesale nursery. No existing housing is located onsite or within the general vicinity of the site. Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Unless Than 3. GEOLOGIC PROBLEMS. Would the proposal result in or expose people to potential impacts involving: a) Fault rupture? ( ) ( ) ( ) (v') b) Seismic ground shaking? ( ) ( ) (v:) ( ) c) Seismic ground failure, including liquefaction? ( ) ( ) (v') ( ) d) Seiche hazards? ( ) ( ) (v') e) Landslides or mudflows? ( ('/) f) Erosion, changes in topography, or unstable soil ( ("') conditions from excavation, grading, or fill? g) Subsidence of the land? ( ('/) h) Expansive soils? ( (v') i) Unique geologic or physical features? ( (v') Comments: a-c) No known faults pass through the site, it is not in an Earthquake Fault Zone, nor is it in the Rancho Cucamonga City Special Study Zone along the Red Hill Fault. The Red Hill Fault, or Etiwanda Avenue Fault, passes within 2.5 miles north and west of the site, and the Cucamonga Fault Zone lies approximately 8 miles northwest. These faults are both capable of producing Mw 6.0 - 7.0 earthquakes, respectively. Aisc, the San Jacinto fault, capable of producing up to Mw 7.5 earthquakes is 12 miles northeast of the site and the San Andreas, capable of up to Mw 8.2 earthquakes, is 13 miles northeast of the site. Each of these faults can produce strong ground shaking. Liquefaction could occur at the site if a strong earthquake coincided with an extended period of heavy rains raising the local water table. The site is otherwise located on stable soils. Adhering to the Uniform Building Code will ensure that geologic impacts are less than significant. d) The site is not located near a body of water. e) The site is relatively flat so landsliding or mudfiows are not likely to occur. Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga DR 00-17 Rancho Cucamonga RV and Boat Storage Page 5 f) The site is relatively flat so grading will be minimal; approximately 25,000 cubic yards. Grading will even out the site and create the necessary slope gradient to allow proper site drainage. g/h) Soil type on-site and in the vicinity is Tujunga-Delhi. These soils are excessively drained, nearly level to moderately sloping soils formed on alluvial fans. They are relatively stable but are subject to liquefaction when the water table is relatively shallow. New development on such soils are required to meet current earthquake standards as required by the Uniform Building Code. ^ soils report will be required by the Building and Safety Division prior to issuance of building permits. The impact is not considered significant. i) The site contains no unique geologic or physical features. Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Un~ess Than 4. WATER. Will the proposal result in: a) Changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, 0 (¢') ( ) or the rate and amount of surface water runoff? b) Exposure of people or property to water related ( ) ( ) (,") hazards such as flooding? c) Discharge into surface water or other alteration ( ) ( ) (v') of surface water quality (e.g., temperature, dissolved oxygen, or turbidity)? d) Changes in the amount of surface water in any ( ) ( ) (v') water body? e) Changes in currents, or the course or direction ) ( ) of water movements? f) Change in the quantity of ground waters, either ( ) (,/) through direct additions or withdrawals, or through interception of an aquifer by cuts or excavations, or through substantial loss of groundwater recharge capability? g) Altered direction or rate of flow of groundwater? ( ) (,/) h) Impacts to groundwater quality? ( ) (v') i) Substantial reduction in the amount of ( ) (v') groundwater otherwise available for public water supplies? Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga DR 00-17 Rancho Cucamonga RV and Boat Storage Page 6 Comments: a) The project is expected to result in changes in absorption rates and drainage pattern. A drainage study/plan showing how stormwater runoff will be handled both during construction and operation, shall be provided to the City Engineer for review and approval prior to issuance of a grading permit. b) The site is not located within a flood zone. Flood protection is provided by the adjoining, concrete lined, Day Creek Channel. c-e) The project site is not located rear a body of water. The Day Creek Channel, which runs adjacent to the east boundary of the site, contains water intermittently generally during heavy storms. The applicant will provide a drainage study showing how stormwater runoff will be conveyed, prior to issuance of a grading permit. f-i) The project will not interfere with groundwater management practices in the area. Spills of hazardous materials such as motor oil, gasoline and other motor vehicle relate substances will be addressed in a business plan. The business plan must be reviewed and approved by the City Fire Department prior to issuance of building permits. Significant Impact Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Unless Then Significant Impact ~ncorporaled Impact Impact 5. AIR QUALITY. Would the proposal: a) Violate any air quality standard or contribute to ( ) (v') ( ) ( ) an existing or projected air quality violation? b) Expose sensitive receptors to pollutants? ( ) (v') ( ) ( ) c) Alter air movement, moisture, or temperature, or ( ) ( ) ( ) (v') cause any change in climate? d) Create objectionable odors? ( ) ( ) ( ) (v') Comments: a) Potential impacts to air quality are consistent with the Public Health and Safety Super- Element within the Rancho Cucamonga General Plan. During grading, fugitive dust (PM~0) will be generated. However, the project, at four developed acres, is below the AQMD Threshold of Potential Significance for Air Quality Impacts. Any impact to air quality from generation of fugitive dust can be mitigated by the following measures: 1. The site shall be treated with water or other soil stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) daily to reduce PM~0 emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403. 2. Haven Avenue and Sixth Street shall be swept according to a schedule established by the City to reduce PM~0 emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil off-site. Timing may vary depending upon time of year of Initial Study for City,of Rancho Cucamonga DR 00-17 Rancho Cucamonga RV and Boat Storage Page 7 construction. 3. Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph to minimize PM~0 emissions from thE: site during such episodes. 4. Chemical soil stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PM~0 emissions. b) There are no sensitive receptors within ¼ mile of the project site. During construction exhaust emissions from construction vehicles and equipment, and fugitive dust generated by vehicles and equipment traveling over exposed surfaces may cause NOx and PM~0 levels to exceed daily significant thresholds. The following mitigation measures will ensure impacts will be at less than significant levels. 5. The construction contractor shall select the construction equipment used on-site based on Iow emission factors and high-energy efficiency. The construction contractor shall ensure the construction grading plans include a statement that all construction equipment will be tuned and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications. 6. The construction contractor shall utilize electric or clean alternative fuel powered equipment where feasible. 7. The construction contractor shall ensure that construction-grading plans include a statement that work crews will shut off equipment when not in use. c-d) The storage facility on a 3.7 acre site will not generate emissions that could cause climatic changes or objectionable odors.

( ) ( ) ( ) (v') Comments: a) Vehicle trips to storage facilities are generally off-peak hours and only occasional. There is one employee on-site. The increase in vehicle trips to the area will be negligible. b/c) The site is a rectangular parcel with one entry onto Arrow Route. There is an entry set back designed so that visitors to the site will not be backed up in the street. There is an emergency access gate with a Knox device proposed. Therefore, three are no impacts. e-f) ^ Regional Multi-Purpose Trail runs adjacent within the Day Creek Flood Channel right-of-way. The trail provides trail user access to community facilities such as parks, schools and shopping centers. The Multi-Purpose trail does not cross at any point within the project area and therefore is not impacted. g) Located four miles from Ontario Airport, the site is offset north of the flight path and will not be dangerous to users or aircraft.

BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES, Would the proposal result in impacts to: a) Endangered, threatened, or rare species or their ( ) ( ) ( ) (v') habitats (including, but not limited to: plants, fish, insects, animals, and birds)? b) Locally designated species (e.g., heritage trees, ( ) ( ) ( ) (v') eucalyptus windrow, etc.)? c) Locally designated natural communities (e.g., ( ) ( ) ( ) (v') eucalyptus grove, sage scrub habitat, etc.)? d) Wetland habitat (e.g., marsh, riparian, and ( ) ( ) ( ) (v') vernal pool)? e) Wildlife dispersal or migration corridors? ( ) ( ) ( ) ('") Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga DR 00-17 Rancho Cucamonga RV and Boat Storage Page 9 Comments: a) A biological survey of the site was conducted on November 20, 1998, and the Natural Diversity Data Base consulted to identify potential sensitive species and habitats in the area. The site is currently a nursery and consists of cultivated container plants occupying cleared ground covered with gravel. No natural habitat exists on the site, and the property was reviewed and cleared for Delhi sands flower-loving fly habitat. No sensitive species were detected on-site and it is unlikely any will move on to the site due to the lack of natural habitat. b-c) There are currently mature eucalyptus trees lining the east boundary of the site and partially along the northern boundary of the site. Great care has been used to build around and preserve the trees. Any proposed removal of mature trees will be done along Arrow Highway to conform to the submitted Landscape plan. d) There is no riparian or wetland habitat on-site. e) The site, along with other sites in the vicinity, is undeveloped. However, intermittent industrial development in the area has eliminated any wildlife corridors that may have occurred in the past. Issues and Supporting Information Sources: PotenliallyUnless Than SignificantMitigation Significant No Inc~qx~ated Impact 8. ENERGY AND MINERAL RESOURCES. Would the proposal: a) Conflict with adopted energy conservation ( ) ( ) ( ) (,/) plans? b) Use non-renewable resources in a wasteful and ( ) ( ) ( ) (,/) inefficient manner? c) Result in the loss of availability of a known ( ) ( ) ( ) .(,/) mineral resource that would be of future value to the region and the residents of the State? Comments: a-b) The project will be required to conform to applicable City standards for energy conservation. c) The project site is located on the Day Creek alluvial fan, an area classified as a Mineral Resource Zone (MRZ-2). An MRZ-2 zone contains deposits of known value and marketability. However, the State Geologist has determined that the area is not a Designated Area of available resources due to urbanization.

Would the proposal involve: a) A risk of accidental explosion or release of ( ) ( ) ("') ( ) hazardous substances (including, but not limited to: oil, pesticides, chemicals, or radiation)? b) Possible interference with an emergency ( ) ( ) ( ) (v') response plan or emergency evacuation plan? c) The creation of any health hazard or potential ( ) 0 (v') ( ) health hazard? d) Exposure of people to existing sources of ( ) ( ) (v') ( ) potential health hazards? e) Increased fire hazard in areas with flammable ( ) ( ) ( ) (v') brush, grass, or trees? Coroments: a/c/d) According to the Limited Environmental Site Assessment prepared for the site, on August 28, 1998, there was no evidence of commercial or industrial uses other than nursery activities. No evidence of discarded drums, containers, hazardous wastes or discolored soils were observed. There was no indication of underground storage tanks or illegal dumping of refuse on-site. Storage of approximately 100 utility poles was noted along the north end of the parcel. The use of chemical weed control was evident. However, storage of chemical fertilizers, pesticides/herbicides was not observed. A soil sample was taken during the site visit and displayed only trace amounts of arsenic. The Environmental Assessment concluded that the detected amount of arsenic (2.87 mg/kg) was significantly lower than the hazardous waste criteria for this element (500 rog/kg). b) Traffic associated with self-storage will be negligible and will not interfere with emergency response/evacuation plans. Fencing/gating the site will limit access to the site in the event of an emergency situation. However, the project will include a knox box for emergency use. e) Brush and grasses will be eliminated from the site during grading. The site will be landscaped with ornamental vegetation shown in the landscape plan. Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Unless Than 10. NOISE.

Standard conditions of approval from the Uniform Building and Fire Codes will be placed on the project. .Police Protection - One employee will be onsite during business hours. Thorny vines will be used to discourage possible graffiti. Eight-foot walls and an entry gate, to be locked during non-operating hours, will be used at the facility to discourage entry. Therefore, the project will not require additional police protection. Schools - The proposed construction activities will not generate a substantial number of new job opportunities or induce people to move to the project area. Therefore, construction activities will not adversely impact local schools. The storage facility will have only one employee. Parks - Proposed construction activities will not generate a substantial number of new job opportunities or induce people to move to the project area. Therefore, construction of a RV and boat storage facility will not adversely impact local parks or recreational opportunities.

(A short-term impact on the environment is one which occurs in a relatively brief, definitive period of time. Long-term impacts will endure well into the future.) c) Cumulative: Does the project have impacts that ( ) ( ) (v~) are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects.) d) Substantial adverse: Does the project have ( ) ( ) (-/) environmental effects, which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Comments: a) A biological survey of the site was conducted on November 20, 1998, and the Natural Diversity Data Base consulted to identify potential sensitive species and habitats in the area. The site is currently a nursery and consists of cultivated container plants occupying cleared ground covered with gravel. No natural habitat exists on the site, and the property was reviewed and cleared for Delhi sands flower-loving fly habitat. No sensitive species were detected on-site and it is unlikely any will move on to the site due to the lack of natural habitat. b) Grading the site could generate emissions of criteria pollutants (PM~0 and Nox) above SCAQMD thresholds. The contractor will be required to minimize emissions Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga DR 00-17 Rancho Cucamonga RV and Boat Storage Page 15 through water applications per the City's standard conditions of approval. Additional mitigation measures presented in Section 5 of this Initial Study will reduce impacts to less than significant. c) The project does not have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable. The site is within a General Industrial Area and is conditionally permitted for RV and boat storage. The initial Study did not identify any impacts (other than short-term construction impacts) that could not be mitigated through the City's standard conditions of approval. d) RV and Boat storage on a small, 3.7-acre site would not cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly. The site is located in an industrial area within the SCE utility corridor so the site are limited to such uses as plant nurseries and storage yards, thus minimizin!~ exposure to potential harmful effects associated with high voltage utility lines. EARLIER ANALYSES Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, one or more effects have been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or Negative Declaration per Section 15063(c)(3)(D).
