NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby found, determined, and resolved by the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows: 1. This Commission hereby specifically finds that all of the facts set forth in the Recitals, Part A, of this Resolution are true and correct. 2. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above-referenced meeting on February 26, 2025, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows-, a. The application is a proposed expansion to an existing temple located to a mostly undeveloped site located at 13938 DeCliff Drive; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2025-005 TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP SUBTPM19720 February 26, 2025 Page 2 b. The project site is made up of four parcels of land. Parcel three (consisting of 35.1 acres) of SUBTPM19720 proposes to include the expansion of the existing temple facility. The project applicant is proposing to develop eight buildings which would result in a total building area of 93,003 square feet as well as associated project improvements, including, but not limited to driveways and private access roadways, and utility infrastructure connection and expansion along Dawnridge Drive, Ambleside Place, and DeCliff Drive. Improvements have been conditioned to be installed as a part of the related Design Review Conditions of Approval (DRC2021- 00187); and C. The existing land uses on, and General Plan land use and zoning designations for, the project site and the surrounding properties (relative to the above- noted parcel) are as follows: Land Use General Plan Zoning ite Existing Buddhist Rural Open Space (OS) Etiwanda Heights Temple Facility and General Open Neighborhood Conservation Space and Facilities Plan (EHNCP) os North Rural Open Space (OS) Rural Undeveloped and General Open Etiwanda Heights Land Space and Facilities Neighborhood (OS) Conservation Plan EHNCP Sout Undeveloped Land General Open Space Flood Control Utility Corridor h and Residential and Facilities (OS) (R-FCIUC) with Equestrian Neighborhood followed by Suburban Overlay and Hillside Overlay Neighborhood Very Low per Ordinance 628 within (N) Etiwanda Heights Neighborhood Conservation Plan followed by Very Low Residential — Etiwanda Highlands (14000 (VL-HC 14000 West Rural Undeveloped Rural Open Space Open Space (R-OS) and Land (OS) and General Flood Control Utility Open Space and Corridor (R-FCIUC) with Facilities (OS) Equestrian Overlay and Hillside Overlay East Undeveloped Land, a Rural Open Space (OS) Open Space (R-OS) and Water Tank, and Enright and General Open Flood Control Utility Corridor Ranch Space and Facilities (R-FCIUC) with Equestrian OS Overlay and Hillside Overlayl d. The property is currently improved with an existing structure built in 1990 at a time when the subject property was under the jurisdiction of unincorporated San Bernardino County which totals approximately 6,600 square feet and which the applicant is currently using for office hours, group worship, and prayer services throughout the week; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2025-005 TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP SUBTPM19720 February 26, 2025 Page 3 e. The subject property was annexed from the County of San Bernardino into the City of Rancho Cucamonga in November 2020 and assigned a zoning designation within the Etiwanda Heights Neighborhood Conservation Plan (EHNCP); and f. The subject tentative map is related to Design Review DRC2021-00187 for the expansion of the existing temple facility as the project applicant is proposing to develop eight buildings which would result in a total building area of 93,003 square feet as well as associated project improvements, Conditional Use Permit DRC2021-00188 which permits an assembly use for the temple, and a Tree Removal Permit DRC2021- 00189 related to the proposed removal of 46 trees and the proposed replacement of 52 trees; and g. Tentative Parcel Map SUBTPM 19720 is for the subdivision of approximately 77.39-acres of land into four parcels. Parcel three is 35.1 acres and proposes to include the expansion of the existing temple facility. Parcel three will included the develop of eight buildings within a campus environment and setting. The remaining parcels will remain undeveloped. 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above-referenced meeting and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in Paragraphs 1 and 2 above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows: a. The tentative parcel map is consistent with the General Plan, Development Code, and any applicable specific plans. The proposed parcel map will subdivide the project site into four parcels. Parcel three, as previously noted, will include the development of eight buildings as well as associated project improvements, and is consistent with the General Plan land use designations and the Etiwanda Heights Neighborhood Conservation Plan (EHNCP) zoning designation, which allow for the expansion and development of the proposed temple worship facility; and b. The design or improvements of the tentative parcel map will be consistent with the General Plan, Development Code, and applicable Specific Plan. Additionally, the proposed expansion and development of the project site complies with all of the related development standards including building setbacks, lot coverage, height, parking, and design; and C. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed. The project site is well suited for the proposed expansion and development as it is located in a Specific Plan and is bordered by sites similarly zoned for hillside developments and open space; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2025-005 TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP SUBTPM19720 February 26, 2025 Page 4 d. The design of the tentative parcel map is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage and avoidable injury to humans and wildlife or their habitat. The General Plan Update (GPU) Environmental Impact Review (EIR) considered implementation of Specific Plans, such as the EHNCP. The EHNCP implements the GPU for the portion of the Planning Area where the project site is located. Environmental review and analysis associated with the streamlined Consistency Analysis and Checklist pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) has demonstrated that the project would not have a significant impact on the environment; and e. The tentative tract map is not likely to cause serious public health problems. The subdivision and expansion of the project site is not expected to cause serious public health issues, as the proposed tentative parcel map is for the subdivision of the site into four parcels with only parcel three designated for the development of an assembly use/temple worship project. As noted, a streamlined Consistency Analysis and Checklist pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) has demonstrated that the project would not have a significant impact on the environment; and f. The design of the tentative tract map will not conflict with any easement acquired by the public at large, now of record, for access through or use of the property within the proposed parcels. The subject project does not contain any easements that would limit access to or use of the project site. 4. The City of Rancho Cucamonga adopted a comprehensive update to the City's General Plan (GP) and certified a Program Environmental Impact Report(EIR) (SCH No. 2021050261) on December 15, 2021. Pursuant to Section 15183(c) of the State CEQA Guidelines, "if an impact is not peculiar to the parcel or to the project, has been addressed as a significant effect in the prior EIR, or can be substantially mitigated by the imposition of uniformly applied development policies or standards ... then an additional EIR need not be prepared for the project solely on the basis of that impact." The 35.1- acre property (Parcel 3) is designated by the City's General Plan land use designation and the Etiwanda Heights Neighborhood Conservation Plan (EHNCP) zoning designation, which allows for the expansion and development of the proposed temple worship facility. Therefore, no subsequent or supplemental EIR is required for the proposed project. To demonstrate that no subsequent EIR or environmental review is required, a CEQA Section 15183 Compliance Memorandum dated January 202, was prepared by an environmental consultant hired by the City (EPD Solutions, 2024) (Exhibit D - CEQA Section 15183 Compliance Memorandum). Staff evaluated this memorandum and concluded that the project is within the scope of the EIR adopted and certified as part of the City's GP on December 15, 2021, upon the project's compliance with all conditions of approval. The project will not have any significant effects not discussed in the GP EIR, nor have more severe effects than previously analyzed, and that additional or different mitigation measures are not required to reduce the impacts of the project to a level of less than significant. The proposed project involves the involves the subdivision of 77.39 acres of land into four parcels, with parcel three proposed for the expansion and development of the existing temple worship facility. Staff finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment.
