and Crafts is located at 8744 Hidden Farm Road in the Community of Alta Loma In 1996, the Maloof Residence and Studio, listed on the National Register of Histonc Places, were relocated from their original site to the current location to make way for the proposed 210 Freeway project The current site consists of the new Maloof residence, the former Maloof residence, woodworking shops, relocated guesthouse, and wood storage bwldings, all of which have been designated as Historic Landmark No 96-01 Conditional Use Permit 96-09 was approved on April 24, 1996, (Planning Commission Resolution Number 96-25) to convert an existing residence and accessory structures to a house and workshop museum (arts and crafts center) A copy of the previous Staff Report, Resolution, and Minutes is attached (Exhibit "F") Section 17 04 030 (G) of the Development Code states that a Conditional Use Permit may be revised or modified at the request of the applicant when there is a change such as, but not

square foot gallery archive storage and toilet rooms to the east of the proposed gallery, and a 340 square foot addition to an existing wood storage area m the western portion of the site B Site Characteristics The project site is located within the Very Low Residential (1-2 ~ dwelling unds per acre) District Parcels to the north, south, east, and west of the protect site share the same zoning The southern half of the site contains many existing fruit trees and mature eucalyptus trees that form a windrow along the top of the gorge The site features a garden consisting of drought resistant plant material that is native to California and meandering walkways The garden was funded through a grant from the Metropolitan Water District A constant +/- 8 percent slope to the south, with a gorge along the eastern boundary used for storm water retention The gorge is located within Flood Zone "A " A Storm Drain Easement is located adtacent to the west side of the gorge Soil characteristics are consistent with those of the eastern San Gabriel Foothills granite mixed with alluvial stones No known significant wildlife is present on site There are scenic views of the San Gabriel Mountains to the north Existing buildings on-site include the current Maloof residence, former residence, woodshops, visitors' center, guest home, and wood storage Currently there are 29 parking spaces provided on-site ANALYSIS A General The proposed modifications will not alter the existing historic residence, woodshop, driveways, current hours of operation, or increase the number of visitors allowed on-site at one time As there will be no increase in the number of visitors allowed on-site, it is antiapated there will not be a need to increase the number of on-site parking spaces The natural gorge located on the eastern boundary of the property is part of Flood Zone "A " A Storm Dram easement is located immediately west of the gorge, and encompasses proposed Location "A" of the future caretaker's studio The engineering department has conditioned the protect to provide a hydrology study to tustify the relocation of the existing Storm Drain Easement prior to the issuance of building permits or to relocate the proposed caretaker's studio to proposed Location "B," clear of the easement area B p otecbostteo o atednat 8744 H dden Fa me Road a N ti eshwereamailed t

limited to the hours of operation found in the 1996 Conditional Use Permit The hours would not be extended As the hours of operation and the quantity of visitors will not be expanded, there is no additional parking requirement It was discussed, however, that tour busses would drop off and pick up visitors at the Hidden Farm entrance to the property After viewing the architectural plans and speaking with representatives from 1 CEDG, Inc , the Maloofs, representatives from the City of Rancho Cucamonga, and the neighbors in attendance were satisfied that the additions to the site would not

They have also been good neighbors and have invited us to their home • In addition, we understand that there has been a bit of conflict with the parking on the streets when an event occurs there We also have the property across the street (ITidden Farm Rd) of then property and allow them to have Guests Park there during everns That being said, we feel that an additiona15,400 square feet comprising 4 new building is not m the best imerest of the neighborhood nor our property values As one neighbor so eloquently put it "if he added a ]MAX and food court he could compete with Ontario Mills" In general (not all) the neighbors accept what Sam has done and are proud to have them __ hl, 'r'1+rx+ aru in~hr nira_fnilre~n_~ggg~Brth-~--h8] Po-a-~aYe COnCfr9 t1M't - the neighborhood may change their hearts and minds and become adversaries Sincerely, Gary A.

The contractor shall ensure that all construction equipment is being properly serviced and maintained as per manufacturers' specifications. Maintenance records shall be available at the construction site for City verification. 2) Prior to the issuance of any grading permits, the developer shall submit construction plans to the City denoting the proposed schedule and projected equipment use. Construction contractors shall provide evidence that low emission mobile construction equipment will be utilized, or that their use was investigated and found to be infeasible for the protect. Contractors shall also conform to any construction measures imposed by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) as well as City Planning Staff 3) All paints and coatings shall meet or exceed performance standards noted in SCAQMD Rule 1113. Paints and coatings shall be applied either by hand or high volume, low-pressure spray. 4) All asphalt shall meet or exceed performance standards noted in SCAQMD Rule 1108. 5) All construction equipment shall comply with SCAQMD Rules 402 and 403 Additionally, contractors shall include the following provisions: Reestablish ground cover on the construction site through seeding and watering. Pave or apply gravel to any on-site haul roads. Phase grading to prevent the susceptibility of large areas to erosion over extended periods of time Schedule activities to minimize the amounts of exposed excavated soil during and after the end of work periods Dispose of surplus excavated material in accordance with local ordinances and use sound engineering practices. t~ J ~ "~~ C • Initial Study for DRC2004-00363 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 7 Less Tttan Sipmhcam Less Issues and Su ortin Information Sources PP g Potentially Significant wnn MNgahm than Siprvfrcant No Impact Incoryoratatl Impacl Impact • Sweep streets according to a schedule established by the City if silt is carved over to adjacent public thoroughfares or occurs as a result of hauling Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction. • Suspend grading operations during high winds (i.e., wind speeds exceeding 25 mph) in accordance with Rule 403 requirements. • Maintain a minimum 241nch freeboard ratio on soils haul trucks or cover ~ i payloads using tarps or other suitable means. 6) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved by SCA~MD and Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWOCB]) daily to reduce PMtp emissions, in accordance with SCA~MD Rule 403 7) Chemical soil-stabilizers (approved by SCAOMD and RWQCB) shall be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PMtp emissions. 8) The construction contractor shall utilize electric or clean alternative fuel powered equipment where feasible. 9) The construction contractor shall ensure that construction grading plans include a statement that work crews will shut off equipment when not in use.

MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE a) Does the protect 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 motor periods of California history or prehistory b) Does the protect have impacts that are individually () () () (/) limited, but cumulatively considerable ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a protect are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past protects, the effects of other current protects, and the effects of probable future protects) c) Does the protect have environmental effects that () () () (/) will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly Comments• a) The site is not located in an area of sensitive biological resources as identified on the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan Exhibit IV-3 Additionally, the area surrounding the site is developed Based on previous development and street improvements, it is unlikely that any endangered or rare species would inhabit the site b) If the proposed protect were approved, then the applicant would be required to develop the site in accordance with the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan The 2001 General Plan was adopted along with the certification of a Program FEIR, Findings of Fact, and a ~~~ Initial Study for DRC2004-00363 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 26 Less Than Sipnihcant Less Potentially WM Than Issues and Supporting Information Sources $grvnWnt A4apaaw sipnn¢an, Ho I an Into retell I an i an Statement of Overriding Considerations for significant adverse environmental effects of build- out in the City and Sphere of Influence The City made findings that adoption of the General Plan would result in significant adverse effects to aggregate resources, prime farmland, air quality, the acoustical environment, library services, and aesthetics and visual resources Mitigation measures were adopted for each of these resources, however, they would not reduce impacts to less-than-signficant levels As such, the City adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations balancing the benefits of development under the General Plan Update against the significant unavoidable adverse impacts (CEQA Guidelines Section 15092 and 15096(h)) These benefits include less overall traffic volumes by developing mixed-use protects that well be pedestrian friendly and conservation of valuable natural open space With these findings and the Statement of Overriding Considerations Considerations, no further discussion or evaluation of cumulative impacts is required c) Development of the site under the proposed land use change would not cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly The Initial Study identifies construction-related emissions of criteria pollutants as having a potentially significant impact Proposed mitigation measures would further reduce emission levels Additionally, impacts resulting from air quality would be short-term and would cease once construction activities were completed The Initial Study identified potentially significant impacts associated with the exposure of people to increased noise levels Mitigation measures contained in this Initial Study will ensure impacts are at less-than-significant levels 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

Mr Henderson stated the fencing will be black metal He also stated there was no indication that the property values have been negatively affected in the area where the operation is currently located or m any of the other neighborhoods where residential-type museums are located Regarding the noise concerns, he indicated that most of the work done on the furniture is done by hand and tools are used infrequently and the operation will have to comply with the City's noise ordinance. Mr Henderson stated that he did not know of any other ewsting histonc bwldings in the area or proposed to be relocated to the area, and commercial operations are precluded from the zoning for the area unless located in histoncal bwldings He said a concern had also been raised that the commercal operation on the Maloof property might be expanded and he observed that could only happen follo~nnng another public heanng Commissioner Lumpp asked if either of the people who had wntten the letters had attended the community meeting Mr Henderson responded they were not Chairman Barker opened the public heanng David Clarke, SANBAG, 444 North Arrowhead, San Bemardmo, commended Mr Henderson on his summary of the protect He stated that SANBAG had taken great pains to comply with all federal, state, and local laws regarding national histonc properties He introduced Knox Mellon, Executive Director of the Maloof Foundation (a non-profit foundation), architect James Wilson, landscape architect Woody Dike, and Philip Douglas of Assoaated Engineers James Wilson, Thirtieth Street Architects, Inc , 2821 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach, showed slides of the current site Chairman Barker asked for confirmation on the number of employees. He said he understood Mr and Mrs Maloof would be there m addition to a part-time housekeeper, groundsman, and two carpenters Mr. Clarke confirmed that was correct An anonymous person asked the cost to the taxpayers Chairman Barker asked that Mr Clarke indicate what the cost will be to SANBAG Mr Clarke responded the relocation figure is approximately $700,000 He said other cost figures are still being developed because they have had to comply with regulations from a number of different agenaes He indicated the complete costs v~nll become public record but they will not be known until complete construction drawings are available Chairman Barker observed that the curent location is m the middle of the freeway comdor and there is a legal regwrement that histonc buildings must be saved Planning Commission Minutes -2~ ~ Apnl 24, 1996 Commissioner Tolstoy suggested that Mr Clarke mention the other mitigation measures that were considered, i e moving the freeway south which would cost far more than the relocation of the bwidings Mr Clarke confirmed that SANBAG had considered the relocation of the freeway and looked at approximately 25 different avoidance alternatives He said these included moving the freeway south which would have affected 186 homes which would have to be demolished He observed that moving the freeway would have also affected many aspects of the design of the freeway and would have cost many millions of dollars He said they also considered moving the freeway north which would have meant 150 homes would have to be demolished He reported they considered tunneling underneath the property which would be extremely expensive He said they ultimately selected relocating the property and it was extremely difficult for them to then convince the regulatory agencies that the project is feasible He said it included looking at every tree and rock and the structure and detail in the house James Schafer, 8788 Hidden Farm Road, Rancho Cucamonga, stated he lives on the northeast comer of Sunstone and Hidden Fanns He asked about the fencing going north on Sunstone He asked if they would have access to the Eucalyptus trees on the east side of the rawne or if they would be fenced off Charman Barker mentioned he had seen the tree house Woody Dyke, The Dike Partnership, One Venture, #200, Irvine, stated he is the landscape architect for the project.

(Continued from March 27, 1996) Scott Murphy, Associate Planner, Associate Planner, presented the staff report Commissioner McNiel asked if the Klusman House will have the regwred setback when Foothill Boulevard is widened Mr Murphy replied that the activity center extends almost the entve length of the protect and there will be more than ample setback Commissioner Melcher thought this was the third time the Commission was dealing vnth an application for this center Mr Murphy responded that aPre-Application review was processed in 1993 at which the Commission looked at an overall master planlsite plan for the site and provided recommendations to the applicant. He said that in late 1995 there was also a workshop at the time the formal application was submitted and the Commission provided additional direction He acknowledged this was the third time this was coming before the Commission Commissioner Melcher thought there is not yet an approved master plan for the site Mr Murphy confirmed that was correct He said there was a schematic being provided vnth this phase of development but there is not an approved master plan for the site Commissioner Melcher asked if the City code regwres that a master plan be developed as the first step in developing a commercial center Mr Murphy replied a master plan is not necessarily required; however, it is customary to require the overall master plan when dealing with a site of this size to ensure that initial phases will not result in future development problems He said an ultimate layout of buildings, drive-aisles, and parking would need to be considered for the entire shopping center in connection with this application Commissioner Melcher asked if the ultimate layout had been provided or rf it stopped at the rntemal driveway inGuded in the staff report Mr Murphy responded that the application the Commission was looking at tornght only shows - Phase 1 and does not contain detailed information to determine whether there will be variances necessary for the other portions of the site He said that staff had concerns ~nnth the design and the potential impact that the variance requests will have on the application and wanted to forward it to the Commission for feedback so that design considerations could be incorporated into the protect Commissioner Melcher thought that when the Commission previously looked at the Burger King and Zendelas faalities, it provided comments regarding the development of the site particularly with respect to the Klusman House He asked if those comments had been addressed in this plan because he thought the plan looked about the same Planning
