urban infill housing developments, and the Project satisfies all statutory requirements of Assembly
Bill 130, including mandatory tribal consultation and completion of a Phase l hazardous materials
assessment, and is therefore exempt from CEQA; and
h. The Applicant requested a Density Bonus Compliance Review pursuant to the
State Density Bonus Law and proposes to set aside five percent (5%) of the total 180 residential
units (9 units) as housing affordable to very low-income households, which qualifies the project
for an automatic parking reduction, one concession or incentive, and unlimited waivers from the
City development standards, as provided by State law; and
i. Pursuant to the State Density Bonus Law (Government Code Section 65915),
the Applicant has requested, and the Project includes one (1) incentive for the reduction in target
mixed-use and non-residential intensity; and
j. Pursuant to the State Density Bonus Law (Government Code Section 65915),
the Applicant has requested, and the Project includes multiple waivers from City development
standards, which are necessary to accommodate the Project's affordable housing component and
would otherwise physically preclude or render infeasible the proposed development, specifically
related to the following:
1) Site and block configuration waivers.

k. The existing land uses, General Plan land use designation, 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
site Vacant/Undeveloped Traditional Town Center Center 1
Dwelling, Single-Family/ Traditional Town Center/
North School, Academic (Public) General Open Space and Center II/Parks
Facilities
West Dwelling, Single-Family Traditional Neighborhood Low Medium Residential
South Dwelling, Single-Family Suburban Neighborhood Low Medium Residential
Low — Etiwanda Specific Plan
East Dwelling, Single-Family Traditional Neighborhood Low Medium Residential
— Etiwanda Specific Plan
I. The Project complies with all applicable development standards of the Center 1
(CE 1) Zone and Traditional Town Center land use, except as modified by the waivers and
incentive requested pursuant to applicable State law.
3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to the Planning Commission at the
above-referenced public hearing meeting and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in
Paragraphs 1 and 2 above, the Planning Commission hereby finds and concludes the following
with respect to the Major Design Review:
a. The proposed Project is consistent with the General Plan upon application of the
requested incentive and waivers pursuant to the State Density Bonus Law. The Project is
consistent with the Traditional Town Center land use designation with respect to land use,
development intensity, built form, and overall character, and is consistent with applicable General
Plan policies, except for the recommended minimum non-residential use mix. The Traditional
Town Center designation recommends a minimum non-residential use mix of 33 percent for sites
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2026-006
TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT20790 and MAJOR DESIGN REVIEW DRC2024-00429
Page 4
zoned Center 1 (CE-1); however, the Project proposes approximately five percent (5%) non-
residential floor area. This deviation is permitted through the requested incentive under the State
Density Bonus Law, which allows modifications to development standards that would otherwise
physically preclude construction of the Project. Despite the reduced non-residential component,
the Project maintains the mixed-use intent of the Traditional Town Center designation and
provides neighborhood-serving commercial space integrated into a primarily residential
development. Therefore, upon application of the requested incentive, the Project remains
consistent with the General Plan; and
b. The proposed Project is in accord with the objectives of the Development Code
and the purposes of the Center 1 (CE 1) zoning district in which the site is located. The Applicant
submitted a Senate Bill 330 preliminary application concurrently with the full project submittal,
thereby vesting the Project to applicable objective development standards in effect at the time of
submittal, consistent with State law. Through the Application of the requested waivers and one
incentive, as permitted under State law and as listed on Section 2(i) of this Resolution, the Project
complies with the applicable objective development standards of the Center 1 (CE 1) zoning.
Accordingly, the Project is consistent with the intent and objectives of the Development Code and
the zoning district; and
C. The proposed Project complies with all applicable provisions of the Development
Code, except as modified by the waivers and incentive permitted pursuant to SB 330 and other
applicable State law; and
d. The proposed Project, together with any applicable conditions, will not be
detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or
improvement in the vicinity; and
4. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to the Planning Commission at the
above-referenced public hearing meeting and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in
Paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 above, the Planning Commission hereby finds and concludes the following
with respect to the Tentative Tract Map:
a. The tentative tract map, design, and improvements are consistent with the
General Plan and Development Code. The project site will be subdivided into two lots to facilitate
a mixed-use development consisting of a residential lot of approximately 8.69 gross acres (Lot 1)
which would accommodate the construction of 180 units and a commercial lot of approximately
0.68 gross acres (Lot 2) which would allow the development of approximately 8,100 square feet
of commercial lease space. The project is consistent with the Traditional Town Center
designation, the purpose and intent is to provide neighborhood-serving commercial uses and
amenities within an active, walkable mixed-use environment. The designation encourages infill
development with a mix of uses, as is intended to create appropriate transitions to surrounding
neighborhoods of lower densities while supporting pedestrian pathways, bicycle facilities, and
street improvements. Accordingly, the proposed tentative tract map, project design, and
improvements are consistent with the Traditional Town Center designation.
b. The site is physically suitable for the proposed subdivision and for the proposed
density. The tentative tract map would consolidate six existing vacant parcels into two lots, a
residential lot and a commercial to support a mixed-use development. The project proposes a
residential density of approximately 19.8 units per acre, which is below the maximum allowable
density of 30 dwelling units per acre permitted under the Traditional Town Center land use
designation. Therefore, the proposed density is consistent with the City's General Plan and
appropriate for the site.

C. The design of the subdivision and proposed improvements are not likely to cause
substantial environmental damage, avoidable injury to fish or wildlife or their habitat, or serious
public health problems. The proposed subdivision, project design, and improvements are
consistent with the Traditional Town Center land use designation and Center 1 (CE-1) zoning,
except as allowed under applicable State legislation, including Senate Bill 330, Assembly Bill 130,
and the State Density Bonus Law. The Project provides five percent (5%) very low-income
housing pursuant to the State Density Bonus Law and includes one incentive (automatic parking
reduction) and related waivers consisting primarily of minor deviations from development
standards, while continuing to meet the overall intent of applicable land use and zoning
regulations. The project qualifies for a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) exemption
pursuant to Assembly Bill 130 for infill development. As required, Tribal Consultation was
conducted, and a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, including limited soil sampling, found
no hazardous substances on the Project site. Therefore, the subdivision and proposed
improvements are not likely to result in environmental damage to human health or wildlife; and
d. The design of the tentative tract map will not conflict with any easements,
acquired by the public at large, now of record, for access through or use of the property within the
proposed subdivision. The subject subdivision does not conflict with existing public rights of way
or existing easements.
5. The approval of the project is in compliance with the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA). Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21080.66 (AB 130), the project is
statutorily exempt as a qualifying urban infill housing developments and meets all statutory
requirements under the following findings:
a. The project location is entirely within the boundaries of the incorporated City of
Rancho Cucamonga, which is considered an urban area under the 2020 Census; and
b. The Project site is considered an urban infill site since at least 75% of the
perimeter of the site adjoins parcels that are developed with urban uses, at least 75% of the area
within one-quarter mile radius of the site are developed with urban uses and at least three of the
four sides of the site are developed with urban uses; and
C. The Project, with an approximate gross site area of 9.37 acres, is in compliance
with the maximum allowed parcel size of 20 acres; and
d. The Project is consistent with the City's General Plan land use designation of
Traditional Town Center and Zoning Code designation of Center 1 (CE 1), which allows a
maximum residential density of 30 dwelling units per acre and a maximum non-residential floor
area ration (FAR) of 0.6. Pursuant to State Density Bonus Law the project request one incentive
that would allow a reduction in the minimum non-residential intensity of 33% minimum to
approximately 5%. The proposed density, incentives, waivers, and reduced parking are consistent
per State Density Bonus Law, and the project remains consistent with the General Plan and
Zoning Code; and
e. The Project is consistent with the City's General Plan and applicable local
planning regulations for mixed-use and residential development, except for specific development
standards addressed through waivers and incentives pursuant to State Density Bonus law; and
f. The Project, located in the City of Rancho Cucamonga and within the Riverside-
San Bernardino-Ontario MSA based on the 2020 Census, has a proposed density of 19.8 units
per acre, which is at least one half of the City's density of 30 units per acre; and

Prior to approval of the final project specific water quality management plan (WQMP), the WQMP
document shall meet the requirements of the State Water Resources Control Board Order No.
R8-2010-0036 (NPDES No. CAS 618036), the San Bernardino County Municipal Separate Storm
Sewers Separation (MS4) Permit reads:
Section XI.D(Water Quality Management Plan Requirements).8(Groundwater Protection):
Treatment Control BMPs utilizing infiltration [exclusive of incidental infiltration and BMPs not designed to
primarily function as infiltration devices (such as grassy swales, detention basins, vegetated buffer
strips, constructed wetlands, etc.)] must comply with the following minimum requirements to protect
groundwater:
a. Use of structural infiltration treatment BMPs shall not cause or contribute to an exceedance of
ground water quality objectives.
b. Source control and pollution prevention control BMPs shall be implemented to protect groundwater
quality. The need for pre-treatment BMPs such as sedimentation or filtration should be evaluated prior
to infiltration.
c. Adequate pretreatment of runoff prior to infiltration shall be required in gas stations and large
commercial parking lots. (NOTE: The State Water Quality Control Board defines a large commercial
parking lot as `100,000 sq. ft. or more of commercial development to include parking lot (with 100 or
more vehicle traffics), OR, by means of 5,000sgft or more of allowable space designated for parking
purposes').
d. Unless adequate pre-treatment of runoff is provided prior to infiltration structural infiltration treatment
BMPs must not be used for areas of industrial or light industrial activity{77), areas subject to high
vehicular traffic (25,000 or more daily traffic); car washes; fleet storage areas; nurseries; or any other
high threat to water quality land uses or activities.
e. Class V injection wells or dry wells must not be placed in areas subject to vehicular{78) repair or
maintenance activities{79), such as an auto body repair shop, automotive repair shop, new and used
car dealership, specialty repair shop (e.g., transmission and muffler repair shop) or any facility that does
any vehicular repair work.
f. Structural infiltration BMP treatment shall not be used at sites that are known to have soil and
groundwater contamination.
g. Structural infiltration treatment BMPs shall be located at least 100 feet horizontally from any water
supply wells.
h. The vertical distance from the bottom of any infiltration structural treatment BMP to the historic high
groundwater mark shall be at least 10-feet. Where the groundwater basins do not support beneficial
uses, this vertical distance criteria may be reduced, provided groundwater quality is maintained.
i. Structural infiltration treatment BMPs shall not cause a nuisance or pollution as defined in Water
Code Section 13050.
