BACKGROUND At the July 18, 2001 meeting, the Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency (the "Agency") directed staff to amend the Redevelopment Plan to reinstate eminent domain authority for a single parcel generally located south of Foothill Boulevard east of I-15 and west of Etiwanda Ave., commonly known as 12649 Foothill Blvd. (i a the Costco Property). During the Agency's most recent meeting held on October 17, 2001, the Agency authorized the transmittal of this Plan to the Planning Commission for its report and recommendations concerning the Plan and its conformity to the City of Rancho Cucamonga's General Plan. California Redevelopment Law (Health and Safety Code 33346) regwres that the Planning Commission, with tunsdiction over a Project Area, review the Redevelopment Plan and recommend its approval prior to the Redevelopment Agency's approval of the Plan. ANALYSIS As a result of Price Company's decision to relocate Costco to 4'" St. near the I-15 Freeway, the Agency has expressed a concern for the future large vacant retail buldng and economic condition of the shopping center Therefore, the Redevelopment Agency is pursuing the Amendment to help insure the center does not decline as a result of the vacancy and, if possible, improve traffic arculation and minimize the length of time the retail space remains vacant Amendment No 3 will prowde the Redevelopment Agency with the possible opportunity to acgwre the property and assist with the relocation of a new tenant into the building • ITEM A Planning Commission Staff Report Redevelopment Agency Redevelopment Plan Amendment No 3 October 24, 2001 Page 2 The Redevelopment Plan contains the provisions regwred for the Amendment The Redevelopment Plan is not a "plan" m the traditional sense of a plan, but primanly a legal document, which authorizes certain Agency activities in the Protect Area As part of this process, the Agency's relocation method and gwdelmes have been updated to be consistent with California Redevelopment Law The Amendment makes no other changes to the existing Rancho Redevelopment Plan RECOMMENDATION Adopt the attached Resolution finding that the proposed Draft Redevelopment Plan is in conformity with the City's General Plan, and recommend to the Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency the approval of the Proposed Redevelopment Amendment No 3 to the Rancho Redevelopment Protect Rope-~spectfully submitted, ~-~Yal,K.Orw aC7.

Introduction The Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency (the "Agency") has initiated the process for the adoption of Amendment No. 3 to the Redevelopment Plan for the Rancho Redevelopment Project (the "Amendment No. 3"). The Redevelopment Pian for the Rancho Redevelopment Project (the "Redevelopment Plan") was adopted by the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga (the "City Council") on December 23, 1981, by Ordinance No. 166. The boundaries of the Rancho Redevelopment Project (the "Project Area") includes approximately 8,500 acres of developed and vacant land in the eastern portion of the City, generally within the following boundaries: the unincorporated San Bernardino County on the north; I-15 Freeway and East Avenue on the east; 4"' Street on the south; and Cucamonga Canyon Creek and Channel on the west. The Redevelopment Plan was subsequently amended on August 6, 1987 by Ordinance No. 316A ("Amendment No. 1") to increase the financial limitations to the Plan and to include additional public improvements to be undertaken by the Agency. In 1994 for the purpose of establishing statutory time limitations on redevelopment activities and Agency financing, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 357 to amend the Redevelopment Plan (the "1994 Amendment') pursuant to Section 33333.6 of the Community Redevelopment Law, California Health and Safety Code Sections 33000, et seq. (the "CRL"). On June 20,2001 by Ordinance 657, the City Council approved Amendment No. 2 to the Redevelopment Plan ("Amendment No. 2") to extend the time limit for establishing loans, advances and indebtedness by ten years and to include in the Redevelopment Plan five additional public improvement protects to be carried out by the Agency. Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency I Report to the City Council for Amendment No. 3 to the Redevelopment Plan for the Rancho Redevelo ment Proeect The Agency's power of eminent domain expired in August of 1999. Amendment No. 3 proposes to amend the provisions of the Redevelopment Plan to re-establish eminent domain authority in only a portion of the Project Area that is located east of the I-15 Freeway, West of Etiwanda Avenue and south of Foothill Boulevard for twelve years following the effectrve date of the ordinance adopting this proposed amendment. The proposed Amendment No. 3 impacts no other properties. There are no provisions in the proposed Amendment No. 3 for extending financial limits or adding area to the Project Area. See Figure 1 for a map of the existing Proiect Area. Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency 2 Report to the City Council for Amendment No. 3 to the Redevelopment Plan for the Rancho Redevelopment Proiect Section 2. Report to City Council This Report to City Counal (this "Report") on the proposed Amendment No. 3 has been prepared pursuant to Sections 33457.1 and 33352 of the CRL. Under Section 33457.1 of the CRL the following categories of information required by Section 33352 of the CRL must be included in a report from the Agency to the City Council to the extent warranted by the proposed amendment. The follov~nng portions of this Report will outline the Section 33352 regwrements and prowde the applicable information as regwred by Section 33457.1 of the CRL. A. REASONS FOR THE SELECTION OF TAE PROJECT AREA Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (a): The reasons for the selection of the project area, a descnption of the specific projects then proposed by the agency, a descnphon of how these projects will improve or alleviate the conditions described m B below. The boundaries of the Project Area were adopted in 1981. Amendment No. 3 to the Redevelopment Plan does not alter the Prolect Area boundaries and there are no additional projects proposed by the Agency. Therefore, no further discussion of the reasons for selection of the Proiect Area or the speafic prolects is required in this Report. B. DESCRIPTION OF THE PHYSICAL AND ECONONIIC CONDITIONS Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (b): A descnphon of the physical and economic conditions speafied in CRL Section 33031 that exist in the protect area that cause the project area to be blighted. The descnption shall include a list of the condrt~ons described m Section 33031 that exist within the pro/ect area and a map showing where in the protect the condrt~ons exist. C~ Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency 4 Report to the City Council for Amendment No. 3 to the Redevelopment Pian for the Rancho Redevelopment Proiect The physical, social, and economic conditions of blight that existed in the Prolect Area were described and the appropriate findings were made at the time the Prolect Area was adopted by the Agency Board and City Counal to the extent then requred by the CRL. The Agency has utilized its best efforts to eliminate the conditions of blight m the Profect Area, which were identified at the time of the adoption of the Project. Despite these best efforts, some conditions of blight continue to exist. Amendment No. 3 does not increase the limitation on the number of dollars to be allocated to the Agency, nor does Amendment No. 3 add any new territory to the boundaries of the Project Area; therefore, the Agency is not undertaking any other revisions to the Redevelopment Plan which would regwre that the Agency re-examine the conditions of blight existing in the Prolect Area and no further analysis of the blighting conditions existing in the Prolect Area is required to be included in this Report. C. IMPLEMENTATION PLAN Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (c): An implementation plan that describes specific goals and objectives of the agency, specific projects then proposed by the agency, including a program of actions and expenditures proposed to be made within the first five years of the plan, and a description of how these projects will improve or alleviate the conditions described in CRL Section 33031. The Agency previously prepared an Implementation Plan for the Project Area for the period of July 1, 1999 to June 30, 2004; therefore, no implementation plan is included in this Report. D. THE NECESSITY OF R,EDEVELOLPMENT Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (d): An explanation of why the elimination of blight and the redevelopment of the project area cannot reasonably be expected to be accomplished by private enterprise acting alone or by the legislative body's use of financing a/tematives other than tax increment financing. As discussed in Section B of this Report, the Agency fully examined the blight and blighting conditions which existed within the Prolect Area upon the original adoption of the Redevelopment Plan. In addition, the Agency examined, analyzed and explained why the elimination of blight and the redevelopment of the Prolect Area could not reasonably be expected to be accomplished by private enterprise acting alone or by the City Council's use of financing other than tax increment financing, to the Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency 5 Report to the City Council for Amendment No. 3 to the Redevelopment Plan for the Rancho Redeuelo ment Pro'ect extent then required by the CRL. Amendment No. 3 does not add any additional area to the Project Area and the Agency is not proposing any other revisions to the Redevelopment Plan, which would require that this element be re-examined at this time. E. PROPOSED METHOD OF FINANCING Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (eJ: The proposed method of finanang the redevelopment of the protect area m suffiaent detail so that the legislative body may determine the economic feasibility of the plan. Amendment No. 3 will have no impact on the method of finanang or the economic feasibility of the Redevelopment Plan. Eminent domain was included in the original and amended Redevelopment Plan but the authority has expved. The Agency is not proposing any changes to the Redevelopment Plan in connection with Amendment No. 3 that will affect the economic feasibility of the Redevelopment Plan or that would add to or alter any of the financing methods currently available to the Agency under the Redevelopment Plan. Therefore, no further analysis of the proposed financing method is regwred in this Report . F. METHOD FOR THE RELOCATION OF FAMILIES, PERSONS, BUSINESSES AND INSTITUTIONS Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (t): A method or p/an for the re%cat~on of families and persons to be temporanly or permanentty displaced from housing faalities in the proiect area, which method or plan shall include the provision required by Section 33411.1 that no persons or families of low and moderate income shall be displaced unless and until there is a suitable housing umi available and ready for occupancy by the displaced person or family at rents comparable to those at the time of their displacement. The Agency adopted relocation gwdelines and procedures entitled "Relocation Method for the Rancho Redevelopment Project" by Resolution RA 81-10 on November 4, 1981. The Relocation Method can be found in Appendix C. The document sets forth the relocation method for commeraal businesses and residential persons and families in compliance with current guidelines adopted by the California Department of Housing and Community Development pursuant to Califoma Government Code, Section 7260 as contained in the California Administrative Code, Title 25, Chapter 6 The Agency is not proposing any additional activities or projects in connection with Amendment No. 3 • Rancho Cucamonga Redeoelopment Agency B Report to the City Council for Amendment No. 3 to the Redevelopment Plan for the Rancho Redevelonment Proiect which would displace persons or families m the Protect Area. G. ANALYSIS OF THE PRELIMINARY PLAN Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (g): An analysis of the Piel~minary P/an. Sections 33322 and 33323 of the CRL authorize the Planning Commission with the assistance of the Agency to select one or more project areas comprised of all or part of a redevelopment survey area selected by the City Council and to formulate a preliminary plan for the redevelopment of each selected protect area. A Preliminary Plan was prepared and analyzed m connection vnth the adoption of the Redevelopment Plan to the extent then requred by the CRL. No preliminary plan was required m connection with the proposed Amendment No. 3, as the Agency is not proposing to expand the boundaries of the Protect Area Therefore, there is no need to analyze a preliminary plan in this Report. H. REPORT OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (h): The report and recommendations of the P/amm~g Commission. Upon adoption of the Redevelopment Plan and in connection with the amendment to the Redevelopment Plan the Planning Commission reviewed the Redevelopment Plan and reported on the conformity of the Redevelopment Plan with the City's General Plan to the extent then regwred by the CRL. The Planning Commission was not required to act on Amendment No. 3 because the proposed Amendment merely extends the Agency's power of eminent domain and the Amendment wdl not change the land uses set forth m the Redevelopment Plan which were previously found to be consistent with the Cit}rs General Plan. However, as a courtesy to the Planning Commission, the Agency is forvvardmg to the Commission Amendment No. 3 to the Redevelopment Plan for any report or recommendations it may have to forward to the Agency. This section will be updated to reflect any report the Planning Commission may have prior to the Joint Public Heanng on Amendment No. 3. I. PROJECT AREA COMMITTEE Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (i): The minutes of the Pro/ect . Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency 7 Report to the City Council for Amendment No. 3 to the Redevelopment Plan for the Rancho Redevelooment Proiect Area Committee (~f applicable) and all mformat~on presented to them. Section 33385.3 of the CRL provides that if a protect area committee does not exist, and the agency proposes to amend a redevelopment plan, the agency must establish a prolect area committee if the proposed amendment to a redevelopment plan that would do either of the folloNnng: Grant the authority to the agency to acquire by eminent domain property on which persons reside in a project area in which a substantial number of low- and moderate-income persons reside. Add territory m which a substantial number of low- and moderate- mcome persons reside and grant the authority to the agency to acquire by eminent domain property on which persons reside in the added territory. The project area committee may be composed of persons from only the added area or both the added and the existing pro/ect area. The proposed Amendment No. 3 does not further grant or extend the Agency's eminent domain power over residential property or add territory to the Prolect Area on which a substantial number of low- and moderate- mcome persons reside. Therefore, it was not necessary to form a prolect area committee m connection with the proposed Amendment No. 3. J. REDEVELOPMENT PLAN CONFORMANCE TO GENERAL PLAN Health and Safety Code Section 33352 Q): A report from the Planning Commisson determining the conformance of the Redevelopment Plan to the City's General Plan. As set forth m Section H of this Report, Amendment No. 3 v~nll not alter the Redevelopment Plan's compliance with the City's General Plan which was previously evaluated upon the adoption and amendment of the Redevelopment Plan to the extent then required by the CRL. Therefore, no further analysis regarding the conformance of the proposed Amendment No. 3 to the City's General Plan is required. K. THE ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED BY THE PUBLIC RESOURCES CODE Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (k): The environmental documentation required by the Public Resources Code. Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency g Report to the City Council for Amendment No. 3 to the Redevelopment Plan riot the Rancho Redevelopment Proiect The Agency has prepared an initial study and draft Negative Declaration • pursuant to the regwrements of California Environmental Quality Act and the Rancho Cucamonga CEQA Guidelines, which indicates that the proposed amendment to the Redevelopment Plan will not have any significant impact on the environment. This initial study is available for public review until November 19, 2001 and it recommends that a negatroe declaration of environmental impact be approved. The Draft Negative Declaration can be found in Appendix C. L. REPORT OF THE COUNTY FISCAL OFFICER Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (l): The report of the county fiscal officer as required by Section 33328. Section 33352(1) of the CRL regwres that the report of the agency to the legislative body include the report of the county fiscal officer as required by Section 33328 of the CRL ("33328 Report"). This 33328 Report generally contains information regarding the assessed valuation of property within the protect area and identifies all the taxing agencies, which levy taxes in the protect area. The regwrements regarding the need for a "33328 Report" in connection • with a redevelopment plan amendment are set forth in Section 33328 3 which provides that: If the boundaries of an existing project area for which the redevelopment plan contains a provision for the division of taxes as permitted by Section 33670 are changed pursuant to Article 4 (commencing with Section 33330), the redevelopment agency shall notify the county officials by transmitting to them... the information required by Section 33327 indicating the areas to be added or detached. Within 60 days from the date of filing... the county officials shall prepare and submit to the redevelopment agency and the taxing agencies a report containing the information required under section 33328, Huth respect to those areas to be added or detached from the project area. Upon original adoption of the Redevelopment Plan, the Agency requested that the County prepare a Fiscal Report to the extent then required under the provisions of the CRL. Amendment No. 3 does not add any additional territory to the boundaries of the Project Area. Therefore, it was not necessary for the Agency to submit the information requred by Section 33327 to the County officials and the County officials are not regwred to prepare the 33328 Report and no such information is included m this Report • Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency 9 Report to the City Council for Amendment No. 3 to the Redevelopment Plan for the Rancho Redevelo merit Proeect M. NEIGHBORHOOD IMPACT REPORT Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (m): If the project area contains low- or moderate-income housing, a neighborhood impact report which describes in detail the impact of the project upon the residents of the protect area and the surrounding areas, in terms of relocation, traffic circulation, environmental quality, availability of community facdit~es and services, effect on school population and quality of education, property assessments and taxes, and other matters affecting the physical and social quality of the neighborhood. The neighborhood impact report shall also include all of the /ollowing: (1) The number of dwelling units housing persons and families of low or moderate income expected to be destroyed or removed from the low- and moderate-income housing market as part of a redevelopment project. (2) The number of persons and families of low or moderate income expected to be displaced by the project. (3) The general location of housing to be rehabilitated, developed, or constructed pursuant to Section 33413. (4) The number of dwelling units housing persons and families of low or moderate income planned for construction or rehabilitation, other than replacement housing. (5) The pro/ected means of financing the proposed dwelling unds for housing persons and families of low and moderate income planned for construction or rehabilitation. (6) A protected timetable for meeting the plan's relocation, rehabilitation, and replacement housing o6~ectives. Upon adoption of the Redevelopment Plan and amendment of the Redevelopment Plan, the Agency prepared a neighborhood impact report to the extent then required by the CRL. Anew neighborhood impact report is not required in connection with Amendment No. 3 which does not alter the Protect Area boundaries or otherwise affect the impact of the Protect on the neighborhood. N. ANALYSIS OF FISCAL REVIEW REPORT Health and Safety Code Section 33352 (n): An analysis by the agency of the report submitted by the county as required by Section 33328, which shall include a summary of the consultation of the agency, or attempts to consult by the agency, with each of the affected taxing entities as i Rancho Cucamonga Redevelopment Agency IO Report to the City Council for Amendment No. 3 to the Redevelopment Plan for the Rancho Redevelopment Proiect required by Section 33328. if any of the affected taxing enttties have expressed wntten obiechons or concerns with the proposed pro/ect area as part of these consultations, the agency shall include a response to these concerns, add~bonal mformat~on, ~f any, and, at the d~scret~on of the agency, proposed or adopted mitigation measures. As set forth in Section L of this Report, no 33328 Report was prepared or regwred in connection with Amendment No. 3, therefore, no analysis of such a report is regwred herein. In addition, as Amendment No 3 merely extends the Agency's power of eminent domain and has no fiscal impact on the Agency or any taxing entities there was no need for the Agency to consult with any affected taxing agencies.

(ii) Reasonably accessible to the site occupant's place o[ employment. (u4 Priced within site occupant's ability to pay. -4- a' / i/~ b. Occupancy Standards An otherwise standard dwelling may not be constdered as standard for a specific family unless it•provides adequate sleeping space for all the family members. Living Rooms should not be constdered• for sleepmg purposes except to the case of an e!liciency or studio apartment. The following standards will be constdered as a guide in determining sleepmg space needs for a famtly, always bearing in mind that the age, sex, and relationship of the individual famtly members, or health factors, may cause some variance. Number of Number of Occupants Bedrooms Mtmmum Maximum I I J (tf child is under • J years of age) 2 2 S 3 0 7 0 6 9 S 8 12 c. Standards for Disolacee's Ability to Pay The reloeanon staff will give conmderanon to [he particular fmanaal situation of each famtly or tndtvtdual and will seek the site occupan['s concurrerxe in the anal determination of what he can afford to pay for housing. Every effort will be made to maintain the lowest possible housing cos[-income ratio, which at the same time provides the relocatee adequate houstng. As a general rule, displacees are usually able to pay gross monthly rentals based on the following criteria: (U Families and individuals - 23% of adlusted gross income. (2) Displacees eligible for public housing rrnts as established by the Housing Authority, which are graded to income. (J) Public Assistance cases -maximum rent allowances under statutory or other limitations governing the disbursing agency. Income, assets and debts are to be evaluated to determining the rela[tve ability of a relocatee to purchase a home. A full purchase price which is approximately two and one-half times annual gross famtly income, combined with monthly payments not exceeding 23% of adlusted gross monthly income, will be constdered as being within the financial means of those contemplating home ownership. -S- ~~~ • d. Environmental Standards It will be the Agency's policy to refer families and individuals to housing in areas not less desirable m regard to public unluies and services, and commercial facilities than chose available in their present location, and which are within a reasonable distance for daily commuting to the displacee's place of employment or potential employment. e. Temporary Housinz Standards Housing not meeting the Agency's established standards for permanent relocation may be used for temporary housmg only when it becomes necessary to relocate a site resident pending the availability o[ permanent quarters, in order that demolition or site improvement operations may proceed, to vacate premises which are unsa}e, and/or to effectuate the reduction of proleet cosh. In no event will the temporary housing oflered by the relocation staff b~ of less desirable chazacter than that from which the site resident is being moved. Such temporary housing shall be in a safe and habitable condition. Temporary relocations made by the Agency will be kept to a minimum both as to number and duration, and will not diminish the Agency's obligation with respect to the displacee's permanent relocation. The necessary costs incurred in temporary on-site moves made at the direction of the Agency will be paid Dy the Agency. If a self-relocatee moves into temporary housmg and declines without satisfactory reason to accept standard housing to which he is referred, it will be considered that the Agency's responsibility to the relocates has been discharged. 3. Obtaining Relocation Hous[na The Agency will obtain, inspect, and maintain current listings of standard rental and sale properties which are appropriate for relocation and available on a nondiscriminatory basis. lntormation on the size, rental or sale price, financing terms and location of available units will be given to displacees seeking referrals and, as necessary, the relocation staff will provide transportation or otherwise assist the site resident in obtaining housing. 4. Relationships with Site Occupants a. lntormation Program Throughout the planning period, the Agency will maintain a staff or qualified consultants to facilitate a close relationship with the site occupants and to keep them, the absentee owners, and the general community advised about the Agency's plans and program. The -6- ~~ v Protect Area Committee, i( one ss required, neighborhood leaders and community igenetes may also play a significant role in keeping the protect residents and general community fully informed in these matters. b. Interviews with Site Occupants As soon es practical after the date o[ purchase, Relocation Specielssts will contact personally each end every family, individual, business end institution occupying the premsses. At that time, the interviewer will explain and discuss ell relocation asssstance and benefits to which the occupant may be entitled Thss information will be contained in an information Statement which will be given to the occupant. The Relocation Speciehsts will discuss relocation needs and problems. On the basis of thss information, the site occupant will be assisted to formulating and carrying out a relocation method. As necessary, the site occupant may be referred to appropriate agencies for special services through the counseling end assistance of the Agency's staff. c.

The site shall be treated with water or other soil stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) daily to reduce PM,o emissions, m accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403. 3. Streets bordering the site shall be swept according to a schedule established by the City to reduce PM,a emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil off-site. Timing may vary depending upon time of year of construction. 4. Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph to minimize PM,o emissions from the site during such episodes. 5. Chemical sod 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,o emissions. b) During construction exhaust emissions from construction vehicles and equipment, and fugitive dust generated by vehicles and equipment traveling over exposed surfaces will increase NO, and PM,o levels in the area Table 1 shows a summary of construction emissions with and without mitigation measures As shown in Table 1, architectural coating (paint) will exceed the SCAQMD threshold for ROGs without appropriate mitigation The following mitigation measures will ensure impacts are at less than significant levels 6.

Related files. General Plan Amendment 00-04 and Development Code Amendment 00-05 and Development Review DRCDR 00-65 Background. the Planning Commission originally approved the project on June 27, 2001, for a 393,880 square foot industnal building (General Motors warehouse tenant). On June 13, 2001, the Planning Commission reviewed the General Plan and Development Code Amendment portion of the protect, regarding the elimination of 7th street extension along the north portion of the property to Hermosa Avenue. The Planning Commission recommended to the City Coundl that the portion of 7th Street along the north boundary of the subject site should be abandoned. At the Ume of those actions the applicant intended to use the property to the north for possible future expansion of another freestanding warehouse building. Since then, a different applicant (Opus West) has expressed interest in developing to the north of the approved (General Motors). The approved project is proposed to be modfied as follows: 1. The 100+/- landscaping along the north side of properly has been scaled down to 26 feet wide with gazebos, a 26-foot wide fire lane and 8-foot wide landsppe planter adjacent to the building. 2. The square footage has been increased to 405,970 square feet and additional office portion has been increased Otherwise, elevations, improvements, site layout and such are basically the same as was previously approved (see design parameters). Design Parameters: The site contains two vacant and adjacent rectangular shaped parcels that total 19.24 acres. A stand of mature Eucalyptus trees along Hermosa Avenue were removed as a result of the Citys Capital Improvement program to install a underground storm drain system along Hermosa Avenue. There is no significant vegetation on the site. The site is currently cultivated as a vineyard. The site slopes from north to south at approximately 2 percent. The vacant indusUially designated land surrounds the entire site. The proposed building is designed to house a single industrial warehouse tenant. The pnmary building design and 21,940 square foot office portion of the building will front Hermosa Avenue. The loading area face is oriented towards the south and does face Hermosa Avenue and staff will condition that the loading area be screened with an 8-foot high solid screen wall. The buildings incorporate two pnmary building materials, however, more sandblasted concrete could be used (northeast comer of the building). The office portion of the buildings is well articulated with strong vertical and horizontals changes and recess to the building plane that are cartied throughout and on all side of the buildings Additionally, the public patio areas are designed to be accessible to the office entryways of the facilities without conflicting with on-site traffic maneuvering areas. The colorvanation of the building is silver chime, white, and cavalier blue accent squares, color scheme on a primarily concrete tilt-up facade. There is also vertical sandblast concrete element along with blue reflective colored glazing accents to help create contrast.

The Visual Improvement Plan will meet the intent of the mentioned strategies because the design concept will visually enhance the boulevard with street furniture and elements that unify the streetscape, promote cohesiveness, and preserve Historic Route 66. ITEM E PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT FOOTHILL BOULEVARD/ROUTE 66 VIP October 24, 2001 Page 2 B Visual Improvement Plan Concept The Visual Improvement Plan shows the speafic design for the two gateways at Grove and East Avenues and the eight activity centers Each intersection is uniquely designed to promote cohesiveness in all four corners. It also shows the parkway transition design and the use of the Route 66 icon "embossed" on the asphalt pavement. The Visual Improvement Plan includes a collection of approved street elements such as a bus shelter, trash receptacles, benches, color and design of the poles, etc and a palette of Route 66 icons. The intent of the Visual Improvement Plan is to include enough details and speafications so that a designer can use it in preparing construction plans C The next step: As the Visual Improvement Plan is close to completion, several planning documents, specifically the Development Code, Victona Community Plan, and Terra Vista Community Plan need to be amended to add language that references the Foothill Boulevard/Route 66 Visual Improvement Plan. The purpose is for members of the development community and design professionals to be aware of the design concept and obtain the Visual Improvement Plan for the preparation of their development plans. i RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission forvvard a recommendation of approval of the Visual Improvement Plan to the City Council and direct staff to initiate Development Code, Victona Community Plan, and Terra Vista Community Plan amendments to reference the Visual Improvement Plan in those documents. The recommendation of approval of the Visual Improvement Plan should be forwarded to the City Council concurrently with the recommendation of approval for the amendments in the various Planning documents Respectfully submitted, Brad Buller City Planner BB:NF mlg Attachment.

AICP, Senior Planner SUBJECT FOOTHILL BOULEVARD/ROUTE 66 VISUAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN ABSTRACT. This is an Informational Item. The purpose Is to introduce to the Planning Commission the draft design concept of the Foothill Boulevard/Route 66 Visual Improvement Plan. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS• The Clty adopted the Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan in 1987. A requirement of that Plan was to develop a Design Specification Plan for the Corridor. Last year, after several meetings and a field tour of the corndor, the Foothill Boulevard and Economic Development Task Force made a recommendation to visually enhance It with street fumiture and elements that unify the streetscape, promote cohesiveness, and preserve Historic Route 66. The Task Force then directed staff to proceed with preparing a Design Specification Plan for Foothill Boulevard to achieve that goal. Staff has hired a consultant, Urban Design Studio, to prepare the Plan. Prior to prepanng the Plan, staff obtained community Input from Foothill Boulevard businesses through the Chamber of Commerce and property owners, and the Foothill Focus Group that consisted of members of Clty staff and key business representatives. It Is through community Input that the Design Specification Plan evolved to be called Visual Improvement Plan. The draft design concept Includes the eight Activity Centers as listed In the Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan, a simulated Archibald Avenue Intersection design with visual Improvement, a vocabulary of street furniture, and Route 66 Icons and art On May 16, 2001, the Task Force reviewed the design concept and provided feedback to the consultant, who Is currently working on revising the design to address Its concerns. Staff is expecting the consultant to finalize the draft design for the two gateways at Grove and East Avenues very soon. Attached are draft minutes of the May 16, 2001 Task Force meeting. A goal of the Plan Is to have enough specifications and details, for a designer to use In preparing construction plans Another goal is for our consultant to Investigate potential funding resources for Installing the Improvements to existing and Improved sites. ~3 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT FOOTHILL BOULEVARD/ROUTE 66 VISUAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN June 27, 2001 Page 2 RECOMMENDATION: Receive and consider, and/or provide comments to staff.

Commissioner Mannenno commented that the ar around City Hall was rural at one time Chairman McNiel mulled public comment Lorraine Dexter, 13203 Highland Ave , Etiwanda, stated she is a neighbor of Dona Smerek, the resident who wrote the letter oppos the transfer of density. She reported they both live on'h-acre lots. She said that 1~-acre lots orated to the south of them, larger lots are located to the north on the other side of the free ,and larger lots are also across the street from them. She believed that if smaller lots were to be permitted, it would make sense to have a park in the area so that children m the neighb ood could walk to the park without having to cross Etrvvanda Avenue, which she felt would be afe She obtected to the amendment.

G FOOTHILL BOULEVARD/ROUTE 66 VISUAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN Nancy Fong, Senior Planner, presented the staff report Chairman McNiel observed that one of the suggestions was to paint Route 66 on the street. He asked if that was practical Ms. Fong responded that the Foothill Boulevard SpeGfic Plan and Economic Development Task Force wants to take another look at it to see if it is practical She said they may wish to move the logos away from the intersection to avoid confusion She reported that Caltrans has approved painting the shield on the street in San Bemardmo County. Chairman McNiel felt it will require heavy maintenance if the logo is painted on the street Commissioner Tolstoy observed the Task Force talked about a variety of materials. He said he heard the Task Force obtected to painting the signal poles and he asked the reasoning for the obtection Planning Commission Minutes -7- ~ ~ June 27, 2001 Ms Fong replied that four colors were suggested blue, red, brown, and silver She said the consultant recommended brown but the Task Force wanted another color Commissioner Tolstoy asked if the idea was to differentiate them from othertraffic signals in the Cdy Ms Fong confirmed that was correct. CommissionerTolstoy noted that the City of San Marcos has pavers and he suggested them several years ago but the City Engineer refused He said there do not seem to be any problems in San Marcos and they have had no maintenance because they were installed property He reported that the signal poles in San Marcos are brown and he felt they look good He hoped something could be worked out so that the shield could be placed on the street without causing maintenance problems. Commissioner Mannenno suggested that attention should be paid to the Sycamore Inn He felt it is an important asset and he feared it will be lost if the City does not pay attention Commissioner Tolstoy observed that wooden benches were proposed He felt they are a high maintenance item that should be avoided Ms. Fong replied that other materials are being considered to replace the wooden benches • f f f f no public comments at this time .. f . .
