RECITALS. 1. Pitassi Architects, Inc. filed an application for General Plan Amendment DRC2004-01197 as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the subject General Plan Amendment is referred to as "the application." 2. On April 12, 2006, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a duly noticed public hearing on the application and adopted Planning Commission Resolution No. 06-20 recommending approval by the City Council. 3. On June 7, 2006,the City Council conducted a duly noticed public hearing on the application and concluded said hearing on that day. 4. All legal prerequisites prior to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred. B. RESOLUTION. NOW,THEREFORE,it is hereby found,determined,and resolved by the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows: 1. This Council 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 Council during the above- referenced public hearing on June 7, 2006, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Council hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application applies to approximately 14.77 acres of land, basically a rectangular configuration located on the south side of Church Street, between Haven Avenue and Center Avenue and is presently vacant, undeveloped, and was previously used as a Flood Control Detention Basin. Said property is currently designated as Open Space-Flood Control/Utility Corridor; and Resolution No. 06-171 Page 2 of 20 b. The property to the north of the subject site is designated Low Density Residential and is developed single-family residential;the property to the west is designated Low Density Residential and is developed single- family residential;the property to the east is designated Office Space and is vacant; and,the property to the south is designated Industrial Park and is Office and Institutional (CVWD Equipment Maintenance Yard) Industrial Park. c. This amendment does not conflict with the Land Use Policies of the General Plan and will provide for development within the district in a manner consistent with the General Plan and with the related development; and d. This amendment does promote the goals and objectives of the Land Use Element; and e. This amendment would not be materially injurious or detrimental to the adjacent properties and would not have a significant impact on the environment, nor the surrounding properties. 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Council during the above-referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2 above,this Council hereby finds and concludes as follows: a. That the subject property is suitable for the uses permitted in the proposed district in terms of access, size, and compatibility with the existing land use in the surrounding area; and b. That the proposed amendment would not have significant impacts on the environment, nor the surrounding properties; and c. That the proposed amendment is in conformance with the General Plan. 4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application,the City Council finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect upon the environment and adopts a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Monitoring Program attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference, based upon the findings as follows: a. That the Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as amended, and the State CEQA guidelines promulgated thereunder;that said Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Initial Study prepared therefore reflect the independent judgment of the City Council; and, further, this Council has reviewed and considered the information contained in said Mitigated Negative Declaration with regard to the application. Resolution No. 06-171 Page 3 of 20 b. Although the Mitigated Negative Declaration identifies certain significant environmental effects that will result if the project is approved, all significant effects have been reduced to an acceptable level by imposition of mitigation measures on the project which are listed in the Monitoring Program attached and incorporated herein by this reference. c. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 753.5(c)of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations,the City Council finds as follows: In considering the record as a whole, the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project, there is no evidence that the proposed project will have potential for an adverse impact upon wildlife resources or the habitat upon which wildlife depends. Further, based upon the substantial evidence contained in the Mitigated Negative Declaration, the staff reports and exhibits, and the information provided to the City Council during the public hearing,the City Council hereby rebuts the presumption of adverse effect as set forth in Section 753.5(c-1-d) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. 5.

Mixed Use development may occur in two ways: 1)as a combination of uses in a single development project on a single parcel of land; or 2)as a combination of uses on multiple parcels within a specified district of the City. In either case,the intent is to achieve a complete integration of the uses and their support functions into a common concept. The effect of mixed-use development in the nine opportunity areas in which it is applied is to create special urban places within the general suburban pattern of single uses somewhat isolated from each other.While such a mixture would not be feasible over extensive portions of the City, it can be desirable within limited,focused areas. The expectations commonly required of mixed use developments through site planning,design, and use configuration is that they: 1. Provide safe and convenient pedestrian movement into and within the site. 2. Provide uses that are interconnected rather than being rigidly separated. 3. Include uses that are highly urban in character, with generally higher intensities of use than in surrounding areas. 4. Contain usable public open space that is highly accessible and convenient to residents and visitors. 5. Express a common design theme that may be carried out by architectural styles, landscaping and lighting treatment, street improvements and street furniture, or other means of unifying the development. This does not precluded an eclectic mix of architectural styles; only that the development be tied together in its physical form by some means. 6. Involve a variety of scales and spaces to provide interest and diversity in the environment being created. 7.

Apply CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) principles to provide both the reality and perception of public safety. 10. Provide a unique and engaging experience for both residents and visitors, similar to those often found in older cities. Each application of the Mixed-Use designation on the Land Use Plan has a specific intent.Therefore, the guidance for each one is tailored to that area.A land use table is provided for each mixed-use designation to establish the uses to be permitted and the general area to be devoted to each use. Flexibility is provided in the ranges to permit combinations of uses at a varietyof overall intensities. Unless otherwise specified, the most intensive combination is the most desirable. The six areas designated for Mixed-Use development under these provisions of the General Plan are: 1. The Regional Center area, bounded by Foothill Boulevard, Base Line Road, 1-15 and the Day Creek Flood Control Channel; 2 A"Town Center"node at the southwest corner of Haven Avenue and Foothill Boulevard; 3. The north side of Foothill Boulevard between Archibald and Hellman; 4. The western entrance to the City along Foothill Boulevard in the area generally know as Bear Gulch; 5. The Terra Vista Mixed Use Area, located along Milliken Avenue and Foothill Boulevard; and 6. The Industrial Area Specific Plan, Subarea 18, generally located west of Milliken Avenue, south of the railroad tracks, north of 4e,Street, and east of Utica Avenue 7. The Foothill Boulevard—Cucamonga Channel Area, located at the base of "Red Hill,"located near the Historic Route 66 Foothill Boulevard and Vineyard Avenue. 8. This Historic Alta Loma—Amethyst Site, on the east side of Amethyst Street between the neighborhood elementary school and the original commercial center. 9. The Haven and Church site, located on the south side of Church Avenue, between Center and Haven Avenues. Once the location of a San Bernardino County Flood Control District retention basin,the site was declared surplus because of drainage improvements within the City of Rancho Cucamonga and became available for private development.

DEVELOPING THE COMMUNITY R 2.5.5.7 Foothill Boulevard-Cucamonga Channel Site This 7.24-acre site is significant within Subarea 1 of the Foothill Boulevard Districts. At the southern base of"Red Hill," the site is strategically located near the northwest corner Historic Route 66 Foothill Boulevard and Vineyard Avenue. Like other newly designated Mixed Use districts,this site presents an opportunity to expand commercial office activity, while providing an opportunity for new multi-family development in the City. The following table specifies the uses and range of development that is anticipated to bring positive aspects to revitalize the area.

This has been necessary because there are not enough athletic fields at City parks to accommodate the large number of children participating in organized sports.Although the City is not party to the use agreements between schools and sports leagues, we can and have provided support to the organizations in seeking joint-use agreements and improvements to the school sites. Our City maintains a park standard of five (5)acres of parkland for every 1,000 residents. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66477, also known as the Quimby Act,we are able to collect three(3)acres of parkland or in-lieu fees from new residential subdivision,for every 1,000 residents. Pursuant to the Quimby Act,we have adopted a Local Park Ordinance(Ord. No. 105)that contains the provisions and procedures for implementing park and recreational land dedication requirements. In order to reach our objective or standard of five acres per 1,000 residents,we must pursue alternative funding sources for adding park acreage and/or park improvements. Such sources include general fund revenues, developer impact fees,state and federal grants, user group contributions, and school district joint-use contributions. Other methods for supplementing our park system include encouraging the development of private open space and recreational amenities(beyond public park requirements)to be incorporated in large residential projects. We should also seek to improve access and facilities at local school sites so schools can handle a greater demand for certain activities such as sports leagues. School grounds and facilities are an important part of our recreational system and can be counted, to a limited degree,towards meeting our parkland standard.We are currently and will continue to pursue the joint-use (or ultimate use)of utility district lands,for both parks and trails uses. the San BeFnaFd;RG fl--6y Flood COMFG!
