Under the Etiwanda Specific Plan, these portions of the tract aze being developed under the Optional Development Standazds While the Ehwanda Specific Plan does not regmre specific azchitectural styles for projects, the plan points out traditional styles found in Ehwanda (Victonan, California Bungalow, Cahfonua Ranch) and requees an integrated theme to reflect traditional styles that meet the intent of the plan Other site design requirements aze also part of the plan The applicant has been working closely with staff to work through the site design and architectural design challenges The applicant used the expenence of bnnging the first phase to the Committee to design these portions of the protect. The architectural styles chosen for these portions of the protect aze the same as those proposed for the first phase. In addition, the applicant has made substantial stndes m enhancing the elevations for this project Wrap-azound porch elements and meaningful breaks between the upper and lower floors on many elevations have succeeded in breaking most of the "boxiness" of the structures Some large expanses of two-story walls still remazn and some attention to matenals may assist m mitigating these areas The cntical constraint that differs from the first phase of the protect is the size of the lots The first phase had large lots (13,637 squaze foot average) wlile the lots for these phases are significantly smaller (6,985 squaze foot average). The applicant is proposing all two- story homes as a result. Despite the constraints, the applicant has been able to meet most of the Etiwanda Specific Plan requirements (except as noted below), the skewed house siting requirement, the garage placement requirement, and the "extra deep setback" requirement for comer side setbacks of two-story houses ~ E R~q Staff Comments The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion Malor Issues The following broad design issues will be the focus of Committee discussion regazdmg this project 1 The following enhancements are recommended • Increase the amount of honzontal siding on Califorma Ranch, Cottage, and Bungalow styles • Provide umque chimney cap treatment for each azchrtectural style 2 Provide greater articulation on the following elevations to avoid "boxy" appeazance • Plan One -California Ranch and Bungalow reaz elevations 3 On corner lots, pronde enhanced azchitecture, such as pop-outs, wrap-azound porch, siding, etc. Avoid plotting Plan One and Plan Two left elevations on comer side because of their un-articulated two-story flat walls. 4 The conditions of approval for this tract require replacement of the Eucalyptus windrows, Ohve trees, and Oak trees Further, the Etiwanda Specific Plan Optional Development Standazds require new windrow planting at a rate of SO lineaz feet per acre Their locations aze not shown on the Conceptual Landscape Plans For the placement of trees in pazks, make a note on the plan in the place of the pazk about what types and the number of trees that will be placed there. The Conceptual Landscape Plan should be revised 5 The Etiwanda Specific Plan regwres no less than 25 feet from the mtenor site boundary to a structure Of the 65 lots that abut tlvs boundary, 25 aze less than the 25-foot minimum. However, each of these conditions appeaz to be able to have the house sluff forwazd on the lot and still meet the front setback as well as provide a vanation of front setbacks 6 The Etiwanda Specific Plan Optional Development Standazds require a mimmum 20-foot building sepazation. There are many locations where the project does not comply; however, in some instances these are porches Further, homes have been "skewed" (i e., plotted not perpendicular with street), as required by Etiwanda Specific Plan, which results in situations where an average 20-foot building sepazation is maintained The project does not comply with mimmum 20-foot building sepazation on these lots, excluding porches: 14759 18-19, 20-21, 59-60, 71-72 14759-2 5-6, 12-13, 31-32, 46-47, 50-51, 54-55, 60-61, 63-64, 68-69 14759-3 24-25, 26-27, 77-78, 79-80 • ~.yo Secondary Issues Once all of the mayor issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues The protect does not comply with the 5-foot wall setback behind the sidewalk on these corner lots 2. A Minor Exception request is pending for wall height along the westerly tract boundary that spans several locations in two of the three phases. The westerly tract boundary abuts flood control land that is currently undergoing extensive re-working of the flow azeas The applicant is working closely with the distnct to sort out interface issues as well as the channehzatton of the creek for the necessary Banyan Street bndge improvements Policy Issues The following items aze a matter of Plamung Comrmssion policy and should be incorporated into the protect design without discussion Staff Recommendation Staff recommends that the project be revised and retain as a full item Design Review Committee Action Members Present McPhazl, Stewart, Coleman Staff Planner Vance Pomeroy The applicant has addressed Malor Issues #5 and #6, and Secondary Issues. The Committee continued this item to give the applicant the opportunity to work with staff on the following issues Architecture Expand the use of stone/bnck by adding it to the first floor pantry pop-out, raising the level on the front elevations and covenng the chimneys ~` The protect does not comply with the 15-foot usable rear yazd azea between the home and the top/toe of the slopes on these lots Add retaining walls to pull back the toe of the slope. • Place appropnate brackets/corbels under the left elevation pop-outs on Plan 4 and6 • Work with staff to carry the nchness of matenals onto the side and reaz elevations • Incorporate proposed chimney caps 2 Substitute Floor Plans for Lot 37 to meet the front and tract boundary setbacks Staff will review the solutions provided at the meeting for building separation, house skewing, usable reaz yazd, 5-foot wall setback from the sidewalk, and the tract boundary setback The Committee recommended that revisions come back to DRC as a consent calendaz item, or a regular agenda item ~f staff is not comfortable with the revisions. ~~a DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 7.05 p m Vance Pomeroy July 5, 2005 DESIGN REVIEW DRC2004-00654 - PULTE HOMES - A request for elevation/design approval of 266 lots of a previously approved residential subdivision of 358 single-family homes and 3 lettered lots for common open space/parks totaling 18 3 acres on 132 acres of land in the Low Residential Distnct (2-4 dwelling amts per acre), located on the east and west sides of Wazdman-Bullock Road, south of Wilson Avenue - APN 0226-102-17for Tracts 14759, 14759- 2 and 14759-3 Design Parameters The Planning Commission approved Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14759 on November 10, 1999 The apphcant is now proceeding with proposals to design homes for the tract The tract will be developed m four phases The first phase, wlvch contains the lazge house product, was reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission on February 9, 2005 This current application request is for the remazmng three phases that includes 266 lots (Tracts 14759, 14759-2, and 14759-3) These phases are south of Wilson Avenue and west and south of Wazdman-Bullock Road and include two of the three pazk sites The Design Review Committee (McPhail, Stewart, Coleman) reviewed this protect previously on May 31, 2005 At that time, the Committee continued the item to give the apphcant an opportunity to address the design issues raised by the Committee and to venfy that the site design solutions presented to the Committee are complete Staff has reviewed the revised Site Plan and has venfied that the standazds for usable rear yard area and mtenor site boundary have been met Lot 37 has been revised to substitute Floor Plan 4 for Floor Plan 5 so that the front and rear setbacks aze met In addition, the 5-foot wall setback behind the sidewalk on corner lots is met Only two situations where the minimum building separation is not met have been ~denhfied but appeaz to be solvable.

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 protected 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 project. 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: Rev 10/26/04 C~ \ Initial Study for DRC2004-01290 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 6 Less Than SiBnifipm Less Issues and Su ortin Information Sources PP g Potentially 9Bmfimnl wan MmgaOOn man SiBrvfirant No i a m led i n i a • 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 suscept~bdity of large areas to erosion over extended periods of time. • Schedule activities to minimize the amounts of exposed excavated sod during and after the end of work periods • Dispose of surplus excavated material m accordance with local ordinances and use sound engineering practices • 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 24-inch freeboard ratio on sods haul trucks or cover payloads using tarps or other suitable means 6) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and the Regional Water Quality Control Board [RW~CB]) daily to reduce Particulate Matter (PM~B) emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403. 7) Chemical soil-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~B emissions. 8) The construction contractor shall utilize electric or clean alternative fuel- powered egwpment 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. After implementation of the preceding mitigation measures, short-term construction air quality emissions would remain significant as noted in the General Plan FEIR (Section 5 6) Based upon on the URBEMIS7G model estimates in Table 5 6-4 of the General Plan FEIR, Nox, ROG, and PM~B would exceed SCAQMD thresholds for significance, therefore, would all be cumulatively significant if they cannot be mitigated on a protect basis to a level less than significant The General Plan FEIR identified the cdywide increase in emissions as a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council In the long-term, development consistent with the General Plan would result in significant operational vehicle emissions based upon on the URBEMIS7G model estimates in Table 5 6~ of the General Plan FEIR, therefore, would all be cumulatively significant if they cannot be mitigated on a protect basis to a level less than significant The following mitigation measures shall be implemented 10) All industrial and commercial facilities shall post signs requiring that trucks shall not be left idling for prolonged periods (i.e., in excess of 10 minutes). 11) All industrial and commercial facilities shall designate preferential parking for vanpools.

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 IV3 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 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-significant 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 will be pedestrian friendly and conservation of valuable natural open space With these findings and the Statement of Overriding 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

square foot storage faality on 4 33 gross acres of land in the General Industrial Distnct (Subarea 8) FINDING This is to advise that the City of Rancho Cucamonga, acting as the lead agency, has conducted an Initial Study to determine if the project may have a significant effect on the environment and is proposing this Mitigated Negative Declaration based upon the following finding: re Init~ai Study identified potentially significant effects but (1) Revisions in the prolect plans or proposals made or agreed to by the applicant before this proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration was released for public review would avoid the effects or mitigate the effects to a point where clearly no significant effects would occur, and (2) There is no substantial evidence before the agency that the protect, as revised, may have a significant effect on the environment If adopted, the Mitigated Negative Declaration means that an Environmental Impact Report will not be required. Reasons to support this finding are included in the attached Initial Study. The project file and all related documents are available for review at the City of Rancho Cucamonga Planning Department at 10500 Civic Center Drive (909) 477-2750 or Fax (909) 477-2847.

Tentative Tract Map SUBTT16311 was previously approved by Planning Commission Resolution No 03-147 On October 22, 2003, a Negative Declaration was adopted by the Planning Commission for Tentative Tract Map 16311 The California Environmental Quality Act provides that no further environmental review or Negative Declaration is regwred for subsequent projects or minor revisions to projects within the scope of a previous Negative Declaration. Design Parameters The 10 8 acre lot is generally square in shape with two entrance streets and a central circulation path that also leads to property abutting on the south that is owned by a different developer The lots range from 5,105 to 10,224 square feet in area and most are suffiaent to accommodate the houses proposed while meeting the development standards Grading of the tract has eliminated some of the existing drainage issues that previously regwred open swales through 'The Hawthorns" development of the south by having all lots drain toward the street There are six Floor Plans proposed (not counting reverses), of which one is a 1-story, lending • considerable architectural variation to the tract Staff Comments. The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion Major Issues The following broad design issues will be the focus of Committee discussion regarding this project The applicant has worked closely with staff on the designs of the houses. The architecture has improved significantly over the designs originally submitted. However, the massing is still lacking meaningful modulation across the side and the rear elevations The "boxy" feel is still evident from all but the front elevation. A Floor Plan that begins with a box and adds partitions to the interior is not successful. An external exhibition of the spaces inside through articulation and creative use of fenestration is a better avenue. Walls that go straight up for two stones right up against the minimum setback are inappropriate A second floor that steps bads in such cases provides a better design solution and more pleasant livability for the neighborhood. 2 The City strongly stresses 360-degree architecture in matenals and features on all sides The descriptions provided for each design style provide clues as to those features and matenals that can be used to expand the richness shown on the front elevations. a The Craftsman Bungalow is the most successful of the four. The listing of the features is a good example of the richness needed in the other design styles L J EXHIBIT I ~~ b For the Tuscany Villa, the "stacked stone" and "heavy columns" can be employed on the other elevations and use "heavy wood overhead trellis" and "decorative corbels" as maior accent features on the sides and the rear c The success of Santa Barbara Revival will partly rely on creative workmanship in the stucco treatment, but will do well to expose dark wood (false) structural elements, along with more extensive use of wrought iron work around windows d The French Country is appropriately somewhat eclectic and would benefit from extending the use of the wood siding found in the gable ends and more liberal application of the stone Secondary Issues Once all of the maior issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues• 1. The conceptual streetscape elevations are a helpful device to illustrate design relationships However, those submitted are deceptroe in that they do not accurately depict an actual set of houses in this proposal either in Floor Plan mix or spatial (side yard setback) relationships Provide a real depiction of a proposed streetscepe, with at least six houses, with the correct setbacks and lot number labels Provide a 1/8-inch or 1/4-inch scale on a long scroll sheet if necessary 2 Replot the tract to use single-story Plan 1 on comer lots Of the nine comer lots, only Lot 1 is too narrow to accommodate Plan 1. 3 Front porches should be increased in depth to a minimum 6 feet Three plans have 4-foot . porches and one plan has a 5-foot porch Policv Issues• The following items are a matter of Planning Commission policy and should be incorporated into the protect design without discussion Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the project be redesigned and return to the Design Review Committee as a full item Design Review Committee Action Members Present Fletcher, Stewart, Coleman Staff Planner. Vance Pomeroy The Committee continued the item to give the applicant an opporturnty to work with Planning staff to address the following design concerns. 5 Increase the single-story plans in the mix of plans to nine houses (-20 percent) It appears that this plan can fit on Lots 15 and 38 6 Need more front setback variation, espeaally along the westerly stretch of homes. The mix of home may have something to do with a solution to this situation, but altering the Floor Plans may also be necessary • 7 For further rewew, provide a streetscape elevation for both 6th Street and Hellman Avenue. D53 Further revision of the house designs is needed Work with staff on ways to alter the Floor Plans to provide less bulky structures and on ways to improve the 360-degree application of design features and elements i -~s~ DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 7 20 p m Vance Pomeroy July 5, 2005 DEVELOPMENT REVIEW DRC2004-01151 - CRESTWOOD CORPORATION -The review of site plans and elevations for 47 single-family detached homes on 10 8 acres of land in the Low-Medwm Residential District (4-8 dwelling units per acre), located at the southeast comer of 6th Street and Hellman Avenue - APN 0210-062-05 and 06 Related Ftle Tentative Tract SUBTT16311 was previously approved by Planning Commission Resolution No 03-147 On October 22, 2003, a Negative Declaration was adopted by the Planning Commission for Tentative Tract Map SUBTT16311 The California Environmental Quality Act provides that no further environmental review or Negative Declaration is required for subsequent projects or minor revisions to protects within the scope of a previous Negative Declaration Desion Parameters.

Major Issues The following broad design issues wdl be the focus of Committee discussion regarding this prolect• 1.The applicant has worked with staff to rewse the unit mix for the site. Nine single-story plans (now 20 percent) have been added to the mix of plans The row of houses along the west boundary (Hellman Avenue) now has a greater variety of plans rather than lust two and provides a variety of front setbacks 2 By including asingle-story plan on the westerly row of parcels (Lot 46), the house will encroach into the front setback and a Minor Exception will need to be requested and approved 'p GJr'J 3 No streetscape elevations were provided for either 6th Street or Hellman Avenue 4 The applicant worked with staff on revising the elevations to provide 360-degree architecture. Concentrating on Plans 4, 5, and 6, the second floor side elevations have been recessed and the rear has been given apop-out The boxmess has been dimirnshed because the recess and pop-out provide opportunities for greatly breaking the vertical expanse of these walls Secondary Issues. Once all of the mator issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues 1 The front porches still have a depth ranging from 4 to 5 feet rather than the desired 6 feet Policy Issues• The following items are a matter of Planning Commission policy and should be incorporated into the protect design without discussion Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the protect with a condition that all porches have a minimum 6-foot depth Attachments May 3, 2005 DRC Minutes Design Review Committee Action Members Present Fletcher, Coleman Staff Planner Vance Pomeroy The applicant presented revised plans The Committee recommended approval of the project subtect to the following Floor Plan 2 Tuscany (Sheet 31) should expand use of stone on post bases and around the base of the house similar to the use on other floor plans with the Tuscany style. 2 Floor Plan 3 Craftsman Bungalow (Sheet 36) should employ the use of stone in the same fashion as Floor Plan 2 (Sheet 30) 3 Floor Plan 4. French Country Chateau (Sheet 45) should eliminate the second floor rear elevation stone and replace it by extending the siding material. Floor Plan 5 French Country Chateau (Sheet 51) should eliminate the second floor rear elevation stone and replace it by extending the siding material, and use the stone material on the front and side of the Office/Hobby/Bedroom #5. The applicant will need to file a request for a Minor Exception for the front setback on Lot 46 ~5~ • RESOLUTION NO OS-73 A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING DEVELOPMENT REVIEW DRC2004-01151, A REQUEST TO DEVELOP 47 SINGLE- FAMILY DETACHED HOMES ON 10 8 ACRES OF LAND IN THE LOW-MEDIUM RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT (4-8 DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE), LOCATED AT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF 6TH STREET AND HELLMAN AVENUE, AND MAKING FINDINGS IN SUPPORT THEREOF -APN 0210- 062-05 AND O6 A.

BACKGROUND The applicant, with staff in attendance, held a neighborhood meeting on July 28, 2005, at the Lion's West Community Center Approximately 10 residents were in attendance with general concerns indicated as supporting future single-story houses versus two-story, view protections, and circulation improvements In general the attendees were supportive of the single-family master plan Refer to the attached meeting notes for additional details (Exhibit C) ANALYSIS A General The site is bordered on the north and south by single-family residential uses and a public park on the west side to the east across Archibald Avenue Therefore, the requested amendment is compatible with the neighborhood It should be noted that when the area to the south was rezoned November 17, 1999 from Industnal to Low-Medium Residential, it was a consideration at that time to change the subtect site as well However, the property owner objected and therefore the site was left within the Industnal Park designation The requested designation would generate less traffic, air pollution, and have only a marginal increase in park and recreation needs than the current Industnal Park designation In addition the designation would be highly compatible with the other residential uses in the area Master Plan The Master Plan as submitted illustrates that a conventional Low-Medium Subdivision of 79 single-family residential lots (4.24 dwelling units per acre) can be reasonably developed on the site It should be noted that the Master Plan is Illustrative only and that a separate Tentative Tract Subdivision Map and application, will need to be processed at a later date B Environmental Assessment The Initial Study indicates possible temporary environmental impacts that may occur as a result of future development and grading activities, such as air quality and noise With the noted mitigations in place, the temporary impacts will be reduced to a less than significant level No development is being proposed at this time A Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared for this protect and staff recommends adoption CORRESPONDENCE This item was advertised as a public heanng in the Inland Vallev Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were mailed to all property owners within a 300-foot radws of the project site RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the adoption of the attached resolutions recommending the City Counal approve the requested applications for General Plan Amendment DRC2004-00699 and Development Distnct Amendment DRC2004-00700, and to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration of environmental impacts Respectt y submitted, Br City Planner Attachments Exhibit A -Location Map Exhibit B -Master Site Plan Exhibit C -Neighborhood Sign-in Sheet and Comment Sheet • Exhibit D -Initial Study Parts I and II Draft Resolution of Approval for General Plan Amendment DRC2004-00699 Draft Resolution of Approval for Development Distnct Amendment DRC2004-00700 E~- ~a /\ ~ 300 0 300 600 Feet DRC2004-00699 (GPA) DRC2004-00700 (DDA) C S Exhibit LOCATION MAP ~~-~r3 ~ ~ CAMERON ST offnwwac ar D DEERBROOK ST ~_ `CAMERON ST vc~~o v~ v-,mivnv.nu inumva e~'$ Ai e~ .IBiI[IS SiL]L6 S30NiAV Q7Y~Htl EiHflQ1.tlS ~~~~Eg$~ II~D[Qd0'LiA.~ fDNYE[QBYiII~Q L y kk77 ~i£ '~ co NVH aiic ~ie~a~sA,_. yya~~~ 2 ~ ~ ~ 4 g ~ ~ ~` ~ ~ ~~ ~~ ~n q ~ ~E~~ 6 ~~R~~E ~~ s p# 9~ p E € ~ 3~ ~ ~5~ ~ ~tl I € ~ ~ ~ d ~ ~ ~Q~~,. p6p 6ax a 6 ~ ~ ~~ ~ a ~ y~ D g 4 ~n8 ~~ !~ ~~ ~ tS ~ A ~ gg ~ ~ K gg ~ ~ om ~f~? ~ ~~~~° ~~~~5~~~~ ~~~ ~ !~5~~~ 6~$ ~~ Q ~ 3wan~ n . .

Tel/Fax: 909.981-3171 • E-mail: jaramos®gte•~t Community comments Of the community members present all favored the GPA & zone change with only one property owner expressing concern over residential development and favonng industnal or commercial development instead Their concern was based on the lack of schools in the area to provide for additional residential development, they were also concerned with the possible blocking of their view to the north since their home backs up the to the proposed development They indicated they paid a premium for their home based on the view, upon reviewing the proposed site plan it showed that the proposed property line north of their property is located approx in the middle of their lot, which would still allow for a view corridor between the 2 proposed homes. Other contains included the existing grading pertaining to the Hawthorn Development to the south and how this project would affect it. We indicated that in the next phase of submittals for Tcntativc Tract Map, a preliminary grading would be developed to address any issues pertaining to grading and drainage. Residents to the north expressed concerns about the existing traffic and what impact this project would have It was explained that a traffic study as well as noise and air quality reports were done to address those issues. One resident was also concerned that 2 story homes along 6's Street could possibly see across into then backyard and encroach on their privacy. They suggested the possibility of a landscaped center medium along 6'" Street to buffer their home. It was indicated that if necessary a sight study could be done to see if that would be a problem. Density was discussed as to whether it the GPA and zone change was approved could higher density be requested. It was made clear that it would not and if any thing the density may decrease based on Final conditions and requirement from the city. There was discussion in reference to the impact of the existing city park to the west and whether there were any pbms to enlarge it due to the possible increase in population in the area. There was also discussion on various non-project related issue and expressed an appreciation for the meeting and the opportunity to be able to at least discuss these issues publicly. Conclusion: Atl the commwuty members present had the opportunity to speak and were apprecuihve of the opportunity to be informed of what was being proposed As indicated all present except one family indicated approval of the proposed GPA and wne change to residential. In closing the community members were informed that they would be notified of any future public hearing and community meeting as the project progresses. Two of the members present indicated they did not get the notice, we indicated that we would check our marling hat to verify its accuracy for fumre mailings Contact numbers were given to 6e community members and were enwuraged call if they had any further questions or concerns. 9:00 pm: Community members were thanked for their attendance and participation and the meeting was adjourned Architect r l , 2 ~d- f' 7 L_J COTVITVIIIVT CARD: Please provide us with any comments you may have pertaining to our project.

Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow the rapid removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to the site full-time during the interval of earth-disturbing activities. Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded, divert earth-disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has completed salvage. If construction personnel make the discovery, the grading contractor should immediately divert construction and notify the monitor of the find. Submit summary report to City of Rancho Cucamonga. Transfer collected specimens with a copy of the report to San Bernardino County Museum d) The proposed protect is in an area that has already been disturbed by development The protect site has already been disrupted by on going farming No known religious or sacred sites exist within the protect area No evidence is in place to suggest the protect site has been used for human burials The California Health and Safety Code (Section 7050 5) states that if human remains are discovered on-site, no further disturbance shall occur until the County Coroner has made a determination of origin and disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code Secticn 5097 98 As adherence to State regulations is required for all development, no mitigation is required in the unlikely event human remains are discovered on-site No adverse impacts are anticipated 6.

San Jacinto fault, capable of producing up to M„, 7 5 earthquakes is 10 5 miles northeasterly of the site and the San Andreas, capable of up to M„. 8 2 earthquakes, is 18 miles northeasterly of the site Each of these faults can produce strong ground shaking Adhering to the Uniform Building Code will ensure that geologic impacts are less than significant . b) The proposed prolect will require the excavation, stockpiling, and/or movement of on-site soils The Rancho Cucamonga area is subject to strong Santa Ana wind conditions during September to April, which generates blowing sand and dust, and creates erosion problems Construction activities may temporarily exacerbate the impacts of windblown sand, resulting in temporary problems of dust control, however, development of this prolect under the General Plan would help to reduce windblown sand impacts in the area as pavement, roads, buildings, and landscaping are established Therefore, the following fugitive dust mitigation measures shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than- significant levels 1) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and RWoCB) daily to reduce PM~g emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403 or re-planted with drought resistant landscaping as soon as possible 2) Frontage public streets shall be swept according to a schedule established by the City to reduce PM~g emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil off- site Timing may vary depending upon time of year of construction 3) Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph to minimize PM~o emissions from the site during such episodes. 4) Chemical soil stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive

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) Ii 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 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 significant 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

Attach additional sheets if necessary): 3.1 PROJECT LOCATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING 3.1.1 Protect Location The proposed Carrara Ranch Tentative Trect 16925 project area is located in unincorporated San Bernardino County (County), approximately all of which lies wdhm the sphere of influence (SOI) of the City of Rancho Cucamonga (City). The City is located in the southwestern portion of the County at the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains, approximately 40 miles east of downtown Los Angeles. Exhibk 1 (Regional Vicinity Map) illustrates the proied sde m a regional context. The City's SOI encompasses approximately 7,700 acres located between the City's northern boundary and the San Bemardmo National Forest The approximately 670-acre project ske is generally located north of Reales Street and La Colina Drive, east of Earl Court, and west of Archibald Avenue. Exhibk 2 (Site Vicinity Map) illustrates the project site vianity • 3.1.2 Environmental Setting (Existing Conditions) The protect site includes hillsides, canyons, and ravines that form part of the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains. On-site elevations range from approximately 2,180 feet above mean sea level (nisi) near the southem site boundary to approximately 4,700 feet near the northern boundary The sde drains by sheet flow generelly southward, with water dreining from hillsides Into canyons and ravines, and off-sde to the south. Most of the property is unimproved, and no improved roads exist on the ske However, remnants of former, on-sde historical uses are evident throughout the property and inGude picnic tables, an egwpment storage area, irigatlon Imes, an old water fountain, drainage pipes and culverts under roads that cross drainages, and directional signs. The egwpment storage area is located w(thin an abandoned on-site Christmas tree farts (described below), and contains old ladders, various pipes (metal, concrete, and clay), old fence posts (metal and wood), five empty 55-gallon drums, an old water tank, concrete cinder blocks, and other miscellaneous materials. Many of the on-ske pine (Christmas) trees are dead or dying, and much of the former fanning area is overgrown vinth native brush. A brush fire in 2003 killed many of the pine trees and other vegetation, and damaged many of the oak trees in the lower portions of the site Although no improved roads exist on the ske, several dirt roads traverse the property Adddionally, two public utility easements traverse the southem portion of the property along the cum:nt City corporate boundary. a Southern Calkomia Edison Company (SCE) easement and Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) easement. The project site contains United States Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) jurisdictional wetlands . and Waters of the United States, and Calrfomia Department of Fish and Game (CDFG) Jurisdictional streambed and assoaated riparian habdat.

Additionally, many of the on-site oak trees' root systems were damaged by __ __heavy rains and associated runoff flows between December 2004 and March 2005 Currently, runoff from the proiect site drains wla sheet flow off hillsides into revines and canyons, which then convey flows to off-site dramage fatalities to the south and southeast According to Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood hazard maps, the main drainage courses in the southwest comer and eastern portion of the project sde are located within a Zane A floodplain, which indicetes that it is wthin a 100-year flood zone These areas are also identified in the General Plans of the County of San Bernardino and City of Rancho Cucamonga as being located within 100-year flood zones. The remainder of the property is located within an area designated as Zone X, which indicates that this area is not within a 100-year or 500-year flood zone. 3.1.2.1 Surrounding Land Uses Land uses surrounding the project site are a mixture of open space (San Bernardino National Forest), vacant, and residential uses These uses, and their respective land use designations in the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan, rf applicable, are described as follows: • North. Open space vnthin the San Bernardino National Forest is located to the north, and prnately owned vacant land (designated as Open Space [0 to 0.1 dwelling units per acre]) is located to the northeast • South. Single-family residential uses (designated Residential Very Low [0.1 to 2.0 dwelling units per acre]) are located to the south, southeast, and southwest • East Privately owned vacant land (designated as Open Space) and several single-family homes are located to the east. West Privately owned, primarily vacant land (designated Open Space and Hillside Residential) is located to the west. 3.2 PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS The proposed project would consist of (1) the annexation of the Project site into the City of Rancho Cucemonga and pre-zoning of the properties within the annexation area as Hillside Residential and Open Space, and (2) development of 110 residential lots within the southwestern portion of the Project site (refer to Exhibit 3 [Tentative Tract Mapj), the sizes of which would vary from a minimum of approximately 10,000 square feet to a maximum of approximately 47,500 square feet. Single-family detached homes proposed to be constructed on-site would range in size from approximately 4,000 to 5,500 square feet. Although the gross overall density for the project would be approximately 0 16 dwelling units per acre (du/acre) when considering the entire 670-acre site, the net density would be approximately 1.5 du/acre on the 73.9-acre portion (11.0 percent) of the site proposed for development. Proposed residential units would be a mix of one- and two-story homes with a minimum two-car garage Additionally, a 1.0-acre reservoir sde would be provided as part of the project at an elevation above 2,950 feet above mean sea level (msl), within a portion of the sde retained as open space in the northwestern portion of the project , area. The access road to be constructed to serve the reservoir would result in approximately 0.71-ace of new impacts July 22, 2005 Cily of Rancho Cucamonga ~a ryA i rI i ~I -~~~ 1 ~~ • ~ - ~ ~ - y: - '~1 ~a '~I `di ~ ~ j`j .. .jfi 'Nj ,~',~ °~ 9 ° '~I •~j ~j ~j}j `~j ~~ ~~I c E~ 6 s~7 ,~• '~ • j •~I -~j „ .~j I 5~ -•-' O Kolb Smle •4.,.~ CMMHI RANCH Pfl0.1ECi INITIAL ST-UY • Clfl OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA Tentative Tract Map ENIdlB Initial Study - Carrad Ranch Project The proposed protect would include a network of privately owned and maintained streets and wl- de-sacs Site access would be provided by a private, gated sVeet that would be 36 feet in width (on a 60-foot right-of-way [ROW]), which would connect to the northem terminus of Dolphin Place Many of the homes would be located along cul-de-sac sVeets that would be 36 feet m width (with 50-foot ROWs), which have been designed to accommodate access by fire and other emergency vehiGes. Two 20-foot-wide all-weather emergency access roads would provide alternative access routes during a fire and/or other emergency. One fire road would traverse east-west through the middle porbon of the area proposed for development; the second fire road would provide anorth-south access road through the southern central portion of the site. Additionally, a regional multipurpose trail that runs east-west is located along the northem protect site boundary Water and sewer service for the project site would be provided by Cucamonga County Water District (CCWD) CCWD would provide domestic water service to the entire site, and sanitary sewer service to 96 of the proposed residences on-site. Based on topography and other sde conditions, the 14 remaining residences would be served by on-site septic systems. Addibonally, an on-site water storage reservoir would be constructed at the northem end of the protect site to provide additional water storage for the protect and other CCWD customers. Based on preliminary calculations, it is estimated that the proposed probed would consume approximately 66,000 gallons of water per day on average and 132,000 gallons per day under peak-use conditions, and would generate approximately 25,920 gallons per day of wastewater. The protect site would be mass-graded in a series of tiers to maximize views from on-site lots of surrounding hillsides and the City to the south. The requved grading volumes would be balanced on-site, with approximately 1,770,130 cubic yards of cut (on approximately 56.8 acres) and 1,771,160 cubic yards of fill material (approximately 33 0 acres) Grading would disturb approximately 89.8 total acres on-site. Any subsequent development of the balance of the Protect sde, once annexed into the Cdy and pre-zoned, would occur as part of a separate Project, and would be subbed to further environmental review once an application is submitted. 3.2.1 Phasing Annexation and pre-zoning of the Project site would occur upon probed approval (by affected agencies, inducting the City of Rancho Cucamonga and San Bernardino County Local Agency Formation Commission [LAFCO]), while d is anticipated that development of the proposed residential units would be completed in one single phase, with construction occumng over atwo- to six-year period. 4.

The Projed site is not within a wew corridor, according to Exhibd III-15 of the General Plan (Major Community Design Features) However, scenic resources are present on the project site, including hillsides, canyons, and ravines that form part of the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains The area to the north and beyond the Project site includes the San Bernardino National Forest and Mountains. Land uses located south of the Project site and motorists along Beryl Street currently experience views, to varying degrees, of the existing scenic resources. The Project proposes approximately 1 8 million cubic yards of cut and approximately 1.8 million cubic yards of fill to accommodate the proposed residential development.' The EIR will evaluate the potential for Project implementation to substantially affect the existing scenic vistas. b) Potentially Signifcant Impact There are no State Scenic Highways within the Projed site or within the City of Rancho Cucamonga, and there are no h~stonc buildings on the Projed site. However, the Projed site contains hillsides, canyons, rawnes, trees, and rock outcroppings that contribute to the scenic quality of the Projed site. The EIR will evaluate the potential for Projed implementation to substantially damage these existing scenic resources. c) Potentially SIgnlFcant Impact The site is located north of Reales Street and La Colina Drive, east of Earl Court, and west of Archibald Avenue (refer to Exhibit 2 [Site Viamty MapJ). Land uses surrounding the Projed site include a mudure of open space, vacant lands, and single-family detached residenhaluses. - WRh Projed implementation, undeveloped open space and vacant land in the southwestern portion of the Projed site would be replaced with the proposed residential uses and associated roadway improvements Implementation of the proposed Project would increase urban charadenstics associated with sWdures and paved surfaces. The nature and scope of existing conditions would be altered, thereby permanently altering views across the site and the character of the exrsting environment The EIR will evaluate the potential for Projed implementation to substantially degrade the existing visual character of the site and its surtoundmgs.

July 22, 2005 Cily of Rancho Cucamonga Initial Study Carrari Raneh Project d) Potentially Srgniffeant Impact. The proposed residential and roadway improvements would regwre lighting of bwiding interior and exterior spaces (e.g , entryways, signs, streetlights, and security lighting) Light and glare caused by car headlights associated v~nth the proposed roadways would further influence lighting in the Protect area. The EIR will evaluate the potential for Proiect implementation to adversely affect day or nightbme views in the area from new sources of light or glare. Comments: a) No Impact The site is not designated as Prime Farmlands, Unique Farmland or Farmland of Statewide Importance. b) No Impact. There is no agriculturally zoned land within the City of Rancho Cucamonga or the Protect site There are also no Williamson Act contracts within the Cdy or the Project boundaries c) Less Than Significant Impact. Portions of the property were historically used as a Christmas tree farm, however, operations ceased years ago and the tree farm is now abandoned. Many of the pine trees on the farm are dead or dying, and much of the former fanning area is overgrown with native brush A brush fire that occur-ed in 2003 killed many of the Christmas trees The Project site is designated Hillside Residential and Open Space; therefore, the sde is not intended for farmland use according to the General Plan Land Use Plan. Additionally, there are no agricultural uses located in the vicinity of the Protect site. Project implementation would not result in conversion of farmland to nonagricultural use. n n o 0 0 ' 3. AIR QUALITY. Would fhe proled: a) Conflict enth or obsWct implementation of the applicable air ~ quality plan? July 22, 2005 Cdy of Rancho Cucamonga 10 i Inkial Study Carrad Ranch Project Comments: a) Potentially Significant Impact The Project sde is located vnthin the South Coast Air Basin (SoCA6), an area monitored by the South Coast Av Quality Management Distract (SCAQMD) The Basin is in attainment for nitrogen dioxide (NOz) and sulfur dioxide (SOz) for both State and Federal standards The Basin is m nonattainment for ozone (Os) and particulate matter (PM~o) under both Federal and State standards, and nonattamment for PMzs Federal standards. Further rewew will be conducted vnthm the EIR to confirm the Project's status ~n terms of compliance wdh current SCAQMD gwdelines. b) Potentially Significant Impact Construction and buddout of the Project would emit av pollutants from three different sources: (1) short-term emissions during construction activities, (2) long-term mobile emissions from vehides.traveling to and from the site once the Project is operational, and (3) long-term stationary emissions from power and gas consumption by machinery and equipment on-sde The greatest potential for air quality impacts from the Project would be attributed to mobile-source emissions. The Project's potential air quality impacts on a local and regional level requves an evaluation pursuant to the SCAQMD and CARB regwrements and methodology Additional analysis is necessary to quantdy potential project-related air quality impacts (both short-term and long-tens) and to identdy appropriate mitigation that would be effective in avoidmg or reduang pollutant emissions. , s c) Potentially Slgnlflcant Impact. Refer to Responses 3(a) and 3(b). d) Potentlally Significant Impact. Sensitive receptors are defined as populations that are more susceptible to the effects of pollution than the population at large The SCAQMD identifies the following as sensdive receptors long-tens health care faalities, rehabilitation centers, convalescent centers, retvement homes, residences, schools, playgrounds, child care centers, and athletic facilities. According to the SCAQMD, projects have the potential to create significant impacts if they are located within 025 mile of sensitive receptors The sensitive receptors located in proximdy to the Project site are the existing residences to the south. Construction and operation of Project- related residential uses would increase vehiGe traps on area roadways and resultant air pollutants. Grading and excavation operations may also have air quality impacts in the absence of mitigation. These Impacts regwre additional analysis to assess their level of signficence.

Adddionally, portions of the Project sRe have been characterized as ruderal and disturbed. Future development could change the diversity of on-site plant spaces The number of native spaces and their cover in the Project area could be lowered through the loss of habitat The areas of habitat supporbng these species could be replaced by land development, paved surfaces, and ornamental plantings. Future development could also decrease the diversity and number of wddlde species on-sde and in the immediate vianity through the loss of vegetation that provides shelter, nesting, and foraging habdat. Development could also impose a bamer to travel between the Project area and adjacent lands. Further analysis is required to assess potential impacts on candidate, sensdrve, and special-status species located on-site or m the Project wcimty.

The investigation concluded that the study area contains one main jurisdictional drainage, 29 associated tnbutanes, and numerous subtnbutanes According to PCR, the total jurisdiction within the study area indudes approximately 8 00 acres that are either 'wvaters of the U S " or'wvaters of the State," induding 0.87 acre of turisdictional wetlands Jurisdictional streambeds and associated nparian habitats also occur throughout the study area. Further analysis is required to assess potential impacts on nparian habitats, wetlands, and other sensitive natural communities, refer also to Response 4(a). c) Potentially Significant Impact Refer to Responses 4(a) and 4(b). d) Potentially Significant Impact Refer to Response 4(a). e) Potentially Significant Impact. On-site vegetation indudes coast live oak woodland. Removal of these trees may be required to accommodate the proposed residential development and associated roadways Further analysis is requred to determine the potential conflicts associated with removal of these trees Refer also to Response 4(a) f) No Impact The Protect site is not located within an existing or proposed conservation area, according to Exhibit IV-3 of the General Plan (Sensitive Biological Resources). Protect implementation would not conflict with the provisions of an adopted Habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation Plan, or other approved local, regional, or State habitat conservation plan. Comments: a) Potentially Significant Impact A preliminary cultural records search for the westem portion of fhe Protect site was conducted by EDAW, Inc in Apnl 2004. The search identfied five previously recorded archaeological resources within a 1.0-mile radius of the site, including a prehistonc sde composed of a scatter of flaked and ground lithics, and four histonc archaeological resources consisting of an agricultural site and three structures (a 1691 rural residence, a carriage house circa 1902-1919, and a set of transmission lines dating to circa 1912-1936). The transmission lines have been determined eligible for the National Register of Histonc Places. Based on the records search results, the Archaeological Information Center at the San Bernardino County Museum July 22 2005 13 City of Rancho Cucamonga Initial Study Carrarl Ranch Project ranked the prehistoric and historical sensitivity of the Prolect area as high, and the sensitivity for historic period resources also as high Construction activity associated with the proposed residential development, particularly grading, sod excavation, and compaction, could adversely affect or eliminate existing cultural resources A cultural resources assessment would be conducted to confirm the presence or absence of such resources and assess potential impacts Chapter 2 24 of the Municipal Code (Historic Preservation Commission) was adopted to'designate, preserve, protect, enhance, and perpetuate those historic structures and sties which contribute to the cultural and aesthetic benefit of Rancho Cucamonga " Prolect implementation would be subject to compliance wdh the requirements of Chapter 2.24. b) Potentially Significant Impact Refer to Response 5(a). c) Potentially Significant Impact The General Plan FEIR (Section 5 11) indicates that the Rancho Cucamonga area is on an alluvial fan. According to the San Bemarilino County database, no paleontological sites or resources have been rewrded within the City of Rancho Cucamonga or the SOI, including the Prolect site, however, the area has a high sensitivity rating for paleontological resources. Further analysis is required to assess whether Prolect implementation would adversely affect a unique paleontological resource/site or unique geologic feature. A cultural resources assessment will be conducted to confirm the presence or absence of such resources and assess potential impacts d) Less Than Significant Impact. No known religious or sacred sites exist vnthin the Prolect area and there is no evidence that suggests that the Prolect site has been used for human burials. However, portions of the Prolect ske have not been disrupted by historical uses of the property. Human remains in a previously unknown burial site could be encountered during construction activities associated with the proposed residential development. In the event human remains are encountered during earth removal or disturbance, all activity shall cease immediately and a qualified archaeologist and Native American monitor shall be immediately contacted, pursuant to the Caldomia Health and Safety Code (Section 7050.5). The County Coroner shall be contacted pursuant to Section 5097.98 and 5097.99 of the Public Resources Code relative to Native American remains. Should the Coroner determine the human remains to be Native American, the Native American Heritage Commission shall be contacted. With adherence to State regulations, a less than signrficent impact would occur regarding potential disturbance of human remains. ~~ LJ u July 22, 2005 14 City of Rancho Cucamonga Comments: a) An analysis was conducted to rdentdy and evaluate mator geotechnicel and geologic constraints affecting the portion of the Project site proposed for development with residential uses (i.e ,Review of Ma/or Geotechmca/ and Geologic Constraints, 396-Acre Residenha/ SecLon 15, T1N, R7W N/O Beryl Avenue & Almond Street, Rancho Cucamonga Area of San Bemardmo County, CA, RMA Group, Apnl 17, 2003) The analysis conGuded the following regarding potential seismic hazards Fault Rupture Potentially Significant Impact Two faults pass through the Protect srte• The Cucamonga fault passes through the southem portion of the site and the Demens Canyon fault passes diagonally through the western part of the site.' According to the RMA report, regional geologic maps show other apparently discontinuous faults within or near the site and aerial photographs show two lineaments possibly suggestive of faulting. u) Strong Seismic Ground Shaking Potentially Signlfcant Impact The sde rs located rn a seismically active area, as is the case throughout southem California There are a number of faults rn the region that could generate earthquake-induced ground shaking that could be felt at the site Notable faults located nearest to the Protect sde are the Cucamonga and Demens Creek (traverse the site), San Jose (6 miles), San Jacinto (7 miles), Sierra Madre (9 miles), and Chino-Central Avenue (12 miles) faults Several other discontinuous faults pass through the subject site. iii) Selsmlc-Related Ground Failure Potentially Significant Impact Potential secondary seismic hazards are soil liquefaction, tsunamis, serches, seismically induced ground settlement, lurching, seismically induced flooding, and seismically induced landslydrng The RMA analysis conGuded the follovng regarding these potential seismic hazards ' RMA Group, Rewew of Malor Geotechnrcal and Geo/og~c Constraints, 396-Acre Resrdenha/ Section 15, T1N, R7W N/O Beryl Avenue 8 Almond Street Rancho Cucamonga Area of Sen Bernardino County, CA, Apnl 17, 2003, Page 4 July 22, 2(105 15 Cdy of Rancho Cucamonga _ - Initial Study Camari Ranch Project - Initial Study " Carrara Ranch Project Liquefaction The ProteG site involves hillside areas underlain by metamorphic bedrock, therefore, liquefaction is not expected to be a hazard at the site However, this requires further evaluation, with particular attention duetted to ravine areas Tsunamis and Seiches Because of the inland location and high elevation of the sde, and lack of nearby bodies of standing water, tsunamis and scathes do not pose hazards to the sde. Seismically Induced Settlement and Lurching. Development is antiapated to occur in areas underlain by surtace or shallow bedrock, therefore, seismically induced settlement is not expected at the site, provided that any man-made materials are properly placed and compacted Further evaluation is required to determine fill and compaction regwrements. The Cucamonga fault, the Demens Creek fault, and other apparently discontinuous faults pass through the site, therefore, the potential exists for lurching near these faults Further evaluation of the potential for lurching is required Seismically Induced Flooding. There are no reservoirs or dams within or upslope of the Protect site, therefore, no potential for seismically induced flooding exists. However, the Protect proposes development of a 1 0-acre reservoir in the northwestern portion of the site. Further analysis is required to determine the potential for seismically induced flooding assocated wdh the proposed reservoir. iv) Seismically-Induced Landslides Potentially Signltlcant Impact. The surficial sods and weathered bedrock that exist on steep natural slopes found on the Protect site are potentially prone to seismically induced landsliding In addition, the potential exists for seismically induced landsliding related to the possible landslide features noted on the aerial photographs reviewed by RMA. Further evaluation of these potential hazards is requved Overall, further review is necessary to evaluate the potential exposure of people or structures to adverse effects involving rupture of a known earthquake fault, strong seismic ground shaking, and secondary seismic hazards The RMA analysis further conGuded that adddional geologic and geotechmcel studies are required to verify the findings, contusions, and recommendations of its report (April 17, 2003), and to develop specdic design parameters. b) Potentially Significant Impact Alluvial soils, metamorphic bedrock, surfiaal sods, and a few localized areas of fill urideriie the Project site ~ Grading and excavation during construction of the Project's residential component would involve stockpiling and movement of on-site soils, thereby increasing the potential for erosion. Additionally, the Rancho Cucamonga area is subject to strong Santa Ana Nnnd conditions between September and April, which generate blow sand and dust, and create erosion problems. Construction activities may temporarily exacerbate the impacts of windblown sand, resulting in temporary problems associated with dust control Implementation of erosion control measures as required by the City, and adherence to all requirements set forth in the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Construction Pertnd required for construction activities, would lessen potential impacts in this regard. Further analysis is necessary to determine whether Project implementation would result in substantial soli erosion. c) Potentially Significant Impact. The regional geologic maps reviewed by RMA do not show landslides within the site, and the San Bemard~no County General Plan Map (FH2OD) indicates a low to high landslide susceptibility at the site However, the review of aerial photographs conducted ~ Ibid., Page 3. ~aa July 22, 2005 16 City of Rancho Cucamonga Initial Study Carrari Ranch Project s= otenLal Sign wn ssue ,an Su o ng~ o o a o Sou - ~ ca s tinpa M' Ineo h) Expose people or structures to a sign~ipnt nsk of loss, injury or death involving wildland fires, inducting where vnldlands are ~ adjacent to urban¢ed areas or where residences are mtennaed with xaldlands7 Comments: a) Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed residential development would not involve the routine transport, use, or disposal of hazardous matenals; therefore, Prolect implementation would not create a sign cant hazard to future residents, the public, or the environment in this regard. Typical of residential developments, secondary activities that would occur on-site (e g., building and landscape maintenance) would use nominal amounts of hazardous matenals. The City participates in a Countywide interagency coalition that is considered afull-service hazardous materials division that is more comprehensive that any other in the State The City has adopted a Standardized Emergency Management System Multi-Hazard Functional Plan to respond to chemical emergencies. The Prolect-related development would be subject to compliance with Federel, State, and local regulations concerning the storage and handling of hazardous matenals and/or waste, which would further minimize potential impacts in this regard. b) Potentially Significant Impact. Portions of the Prolect site were histoncelly used as a Christmas tree fans, which ceased operations years ago and is now abandoned Remnants of the tree farm are evident throughout the property and include. an equipment storage area, irrigation lines in areas planted with pine (Christmas) trees, an old water fountain, dreinage pipes under roads that cross drainages, and directional signs. The equipment storage area is located within the abandoned tree fans, it contains old ladders, pipe (metal, concrete, and clay), old fence posts (metal and wood), five empty 55-gallon drums, an old water tank, concrete cinder blocks, and other miscellaneous matenals Additionally, pesticides and herbicides may have been used previously in conjunction with operation of the tree fans. Further analysis is required to confirm the presence or absence of hazardous matenals on the Prolect site. c) No Impact The proposed residential uses would not emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste d) No Impact The Prolect site is not included on a governmental Ilst of hazardous materials sites. e) No Impact. The Prolect site is not located wthin an airport land use plan, within two miles of an airport, or in the vicinity of a pnvate airstnp. Prolect implementation would not result in a safety hazard for people residing in the Prolect area. f) No Impact. Refer to Response 7(e) g) Potentially Slgni~cant Impact The City adopted a Standardized Emergency Management System Multi-Hazard Functional Plan In 1997, which ident~es the roles, responsibilities, and procedures for those who respond to natural or man-made emergencies Because of the nature and location of the proposed uses, Prolect implementation would not impair implementation of or physically interfere with the City's adopted Plan. Access to the Prolect site is proposed via a private, gated street that would connect to the northern terminus of Delphin Place A network of privately owned and maintained streets and cul-de-sac ~a3 July 22, 2005 18 City of Rancho Cucamonga Initial Study Camari Ranch Project streets would provide interior access to the proposed residential uses. Two all-weather access roads for fire equipment and other emergency vehicles are proposed to provide alternative access routes during fire and emergency conditions one access road would provide emergency access to the middle portion of the development area from the western property boundary, and the second access road would provide emergency access to the southeastern portion of the development area from the southern property boundary. Also, an easement road is planned to provide access to the proposed reservoir Further review of the proposed access routes rs necessary to determine their consistency with all applicable City codes, including local fire ordinances regarding stte access As such, further analysis of this issue in an EIR rs regwred. h) Potentlalty SIgnl~cant Impact. The City conducted an analysis to categorize structure) and wildland fire threat based upon probability of occurcence and consequences. Exhibit V-7 of the General Plan (Fire Risk Assessment) presents the results of the analysis and indicates that the Prolect area rs placed rn a High-Probability, High-Consequence category of fire nsks Also, according to the Fire Distnct Strategic Plan 2000-2005, Rancho Cucamonga's greatest ongoing threat from awind-driven fire rs rn the Urban Wddland Interface area found rn the northern part of the City and in the SOI, which includes the Prolect site A Wildland Fire Model, Urban Response Fire Model, and Fuel Modification Analysis will be prepared to detercnrne the potential exposure of people or structures to nsks involving wildland fires Further analysis in an EIR rs therefore warranted. a s can ~ u o n+ o p ou ce " n 8.

Construction of the proposed development would disturb on-site soils During a storm event, particulate matter would run off the site Urban runoff is expected to increase as a result of developing the proposed residential uses The concentration of chemical constituents dissolved or suspended in runoff waters leaving the site would vary with the distribution pattern of rainfall events Similarly, the characteristics of rain events affect the concentration of pollutants The State of California is authorized to administer various aspects of the NPDES permit under Section 402 of the Clean Water Act. The General Construction Permit treats any construction activity over 1 0 aae as an industhal activity, requiring a permit under the State's General NPDES permit. Further review is necessary regarding compliance requirements with the Statewide NPDES General Permit for Stonn Water Discharges Associated with Construction Activity, which would prevent stormwater pollution from impacting waters of the U.S. in the vicinity of the Protect site. Further analysis is required to determine whether Project implementation would violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements. • b) Potentially Significant Impact. F~chibit iV-2 of the General Plan (Water Resources) illustrates the locations of the City's groundwater recharge basins and spreading grounds. As indicated in Exhibit IV-2, the Protect site is not located within an area designated as a recharge basin or spreading ground, although some such areas exist in proximity to (downstream of) the Protect site. The Project does not propose to extract groundwater to meet the water demand created by the proposed resldential uses However, the geotechnical and geologic constraints analysis conducted by RMA noted that the U S Geological Survey Map of the Cucamonga Peak Quadrangle shows two springs in the southern portion of the site. The analysis also noted that perched groundwater can sometimes occur in canyon areas at or near the contact between alluvium and bedrock. The locations of the springs and the potential for bedrock seepage and perched groundwater require further evaluation to determine whether Protect implementation would affect groundwater supplies. 1, July 22 2005 20 Gty of Rancho Cucamonga _ Inkial Study Carrari Ranch Project India) Study - Caned Ranch Project c) Potentially Significant Impact Development of the site would involve the construction of . impervious surtaces, which would decrease ground absorption on-site, increase the quantity of surface water, and change existing drainage pattems The changes in drainage pattems, altered absorption rates, and the manner in which runoff from the site would be accommodated by existing or future flood control infrastructure improvements regwre further analysis.

As illustrated on Exhibit V-5, the southwestern and southeastern portions of the Protect site are within the boundanes of a Speaal Flood Hazard Area Further analysis is required to determine potential impacts m this regard. h) Potentially Significant Impact. Refer to Response 8(g) Potentlally Significant Impact There are no reservovs or dams within or upslope of the Project site, therefore, no flooding as a result of an existing reservoir or dam is anticipated. However, the Project proposes development of a 1.0-acre reservoir on-site. Further analysis Is requved to determine the potential for flooding assoaated vnth the proposed reservoir. Refer also to . Response 8(c) 1) Potentially Significant Impact. Because of the inland location, elevation of the site, and lack of nearby bodies of standing water, inundation by tsunamis or seiches does not pose a hazard to the site However, the RMA analysis concluded that most steep hillsides within the site have debns flow or mudflow scars from past surfiaal slope failures Further review of these existing features is necessary to evaluate their stability, particularly in relation to the proposed development areas The potential for debns and mudflows also requires consideration for building locations downslope of steep slope areas 21 Jury 22, 2005 Gty of Rancho Cucamonga Initial Study Carrari Ranch Project Comments: a) No Impact The ProleG site is located in the westem portion of the City's SOI, north of the Reales Street and La Colina Drive, east of Earl Court, and west of Archibald Avenue The Project site is located in an area that includes the northern portion of the City and the SOI, and which serves as an urban-wildland interface The surrounding area is characterized by open space and vacant lands to the north, east, and west Based on the location of the Prolect sde and the character of the sunounding area, Project implementation would not physically divide an established community b) Potentially Signl~eant Impact The Land Use Plan for Rancho Cucamonga and ds SOI area is shown on Exhibit III-1 of the General Plan (Land Use Plan) According to Exhibit III-1, the Prolect site is designated Hillside Residential and Open Space Further analysis rs regwred to determine the Project's consistency with the Land Use Plan and policies of the Rancho Cucamonga General Plan. The boundaries of the development disVicts are shown on the Development Distract Map The Project site is located in the westem portion of the City's SOI and not within the City limds; thus, the property is not currently wdhin the boundaries of a Development District. The proposed Prolect includes the annexation of the site into the City of Ranch Cucamonga, as well as pre-zoning of the site under the City's Development Code Should the City approve the proposed Prolect, a request would be submitted to the LAFCO to annex the Carran Ranch Prolect site to the City of Rancho Cucamonga. Under the existing General Plan designations for the site, the entire site could be developed with up to approximately 66 residential dwelling units As such, approval of a Development District Amendment would also be regwred, in order to accommodate the proposed residential development of 110 dwelling units The topography of the Prolect sde ncudes slopes . ranging from 10.0 to 30.0 percent or more The City has adopted a Hillside Development Ordinance, which is applicable to all proposed residential development on natural slopes of 8 0 percent grade or greater (with some exceptions). Accordingly, development on the Prolect sde would be subject to compliance with Chapter 17.24 (Hillside Development Regulations).

Initial Study Carron Ranch Project Comments• a) Less Than Significant Impact As of January 1, 2005, the City's total population was an estimated 161,830 persons, ranking it 27"' out of the State's cities.° Based on buildout protections for current zoning, the City's buildout population, including areas within the City's sphere of influence, would range between 102,096 and 218,240 persons wdh the most likely buildout scenano yielding a population of approximately 172,852 persons. This is based on a protected range of housing bwldout between 32,755 and 70,018 dwelling units and a target buidout of 55,456 dwelling units, as noted in Table III-2A of the City's General Plan, as well as a vacancy rate of 3.02 percent and an occupancy rate of 3 214 persons per household. A protect could induce population growth in an area either directly or indirectly The development of new homes or businesses could induce population growth dinecfly, whereas the annexation of property, and extension of roads or other infrastructure could induce population growth indirectly The Protect proposes development of 110 single-family residential lots, thereby, induang direct population growth in the City Based on an estimate of 3.214 persons per household (State of Caldomia Department of Finance, 2005), the increase of 110 housing unds resulting from Protect implementation could potentially increase the City's population by approximately 354 persons. The Protect sde is designated Hillside Residential and Open Space; therefore, new residential development and resultant population increases were anticipated for the site in the General Plan Further, the City's population, including implementation of the proposed Protect, would be approximately 162,184 persons, which would be well below the City's holding capacity of approximately 172,852 persons at General Plan buildout Because the population growth associated with the Protect would be within General Plan protections, it would not induce substantial population growth in the City. A less than signficant impact is conGuded in this regard. b) No Impact The Project site contains no existing housing units.

The purpose of my letter is to convince you that the proposed 110 homes by Gary Miller Development (north of Reales St off Delphin) is bad for our city and building permits should be rejected Every Rancho Cucamonga resident I have spoken with believes this project will result in tragedy for the neighborhood It may come in the form of subsidence issues causing mudslides due to the enormous amount of dirt that must be displaced We experienced the fire that tore through our neighborhood last year. To further encroach on a hillside will almost surely make public safety impossible. This safety issue is exacerbated because of the single access road on Delphin. This would also be the only escape route for homeowners of this project. Having experienced the chaos of the Grand Pnx fire, I can assure you the city and its public safety are incapable of evacuating that area with 300 more vehicles trying to utilize a single escape route. Further problems will be encountered on Beryl Street due to its severe grade Add to all of this the fact that it is a single lane road We were very fortunate in the fire not to have had more problems. Putting another 110 homes at risk puts the current neighborhood at even greater risk Deliberately overtaxing your safety departments' ability for this project is unconscionable. •c G~~ Regardless of whether a natural disaster such as flood or fire occurs, you will intentionally destroy one of Rancho's last sources of natural habitat and all the . wildlife inhabiting it I have personally seen deer, bear, mountain lion, bobcats and other wildlife in the exact area proposed for development. Enough already. One of the few positive aspects left of living in Rancho Cucamonga are the areas left unspoiled by development The city planners are already altowing out of control growth that brings congestion, crime, safety issues, and a despondency in knowing we will soon be what most of us moved here to get away from - an overcrowded, underserved, concrete bungle. You cannot support this project in my opinion because of the costs to defend the myriad of legal assaults that will be brought by your constituents. Since Rancho appears to be 'all about the money,' please look at the net effect from not only the pre-construction suits, but also those that will come after any number of inevitable disasters occur Stop it now before any damage is done I believe the citizens of our city would vote overwhelmingly against the continued onslaught of housing starts we've been experiencing Thank you AAI, CIC u • 3~ T H E C I T V O F RANCHO C U C A M O N G A Staff Report DATE.

Vacant land Is to the East of the subject site Proposed Applicatzon: Tentatzve Parcel Map As a regulated entity, Venzon is required to operate in an efficient and cost effective manner, thereby insunng that the ratepayer's interests aze best served. Part of this process involves insuring that Venzon is not canyuig or retaining property that is not necessary for the purpose of rendenng telecommumcatron services Some vacant property is retained at certain sites, to accommodate future growth However, at the subject location, after extensive study, it has been determined that most of the surplus property is not required for cwrent operatrons, nor is it necessary to be retained for future expansion Therefore, by completing the proposed Tentative Parcel Map, Venzon will be able to dispose of surplus property, allowing it to operate more efficiently and cost effectively (by eliminating overhead and carrying costs). Pursuant to the foregoing, Venzon desires to file for a Tentative Parcel Map (Exhibit "D"), compnsed of two parcels 1) Parcel 1, containing the existing Central Office (C O.), its pazking azea, and a portion of the unimproved land to accommodate potential building expansion, as maybe related to a future need to serve anticipated growth in the immediate vicinity. • ~-~~ a u Tentative Parcel Map -Rancho Cucamonga 4/5/05 Page 3 2) Parcel 2, containing the balance of the unimproved land, which Venzon has determined to be surplus As such, Parcel 1 would contun +/- 0 992 acres (+/- 43,217 sq. ft.) of land area, and Parcel 2 would contain +/- 3 362 acres (+/- 146,460 sq. ft.) of land azea Environmental Venzon has no proposed development for the surplus property (Pazcel 2) and there will be no effects to the environment As part of the apphcahon submittal, a Conceptual Master Plan (Exhibit "E'~ is regtured. The Conceptual Master Plan submitted shows four (4) proposed lots, accessed by way of a future hypothetical public street Because this proposed Conceptual Master Plan is a tumor land division of four or fewer parcels, a Categoncal Exemption under the California Environmental Quality Act is applicable (CEQA Guidelines Article 19 Categoncal Exemptions Section 15300 and Section 15315 Minor Land Divisions Class 15 ). There will be no significant effect on the environment and therefore, shall be exempt from the provisions of CEQA The Environmental Information Form (Part 1 -Initial Study) has been completed in full and is included with this apphcahon. Conceptual Master Plan The proposed Conceptual Master Plan is submitted only as an application requirement item. Venzon has no plan to develop the surplus land (Parcel 2). The proposed Conceptual Master Plan was created in accordance with the Etiwanda Basic Development Standazds and shows four (4) proposed lots with a street as a public access point A future developer or owner would submit an actual proposal, at a future date, thereby allowing the City and the residents of the azea the ability to oversee the final subdivision and development process. Conclusion: This application has been organized pursuant to Preliminary Submittal DRC2004-00496. The subl ect apphcahon has been discussed, in detail, with City of Rancho Cucamonga Engineenng staff and Planning staff, and has received favorable responses.

The traffic on Beryl now is to much for Beryl to handle. Many cars currently use Caballero Dr as an alternate route to Hillside then Carnelian. This creates a higher volume of cars on Caballero than it was designed and because these cars are driving through, their rate of speed is much more than the current speed limit. If the only access to this new development is up and down Beryl, than I am sure that will increase the volume of vehicles thrn Caballero Drive as well. I would like to know why there will not be an additional entrance to this development. Could Amethyst be a possible entrance? Is Carnelian through Kings Ranch a possible option for an additional entrance? Is it possible to put a gate at Caballero Drive blocking it's entrance from Beryl except for fire trucks and residences in our track? I work in the construction industry and understand developments and developers. I am not against the development of this project, I just know that the traffic volume on Caballero 8c Buckthorn will increase to a level that will make our street unsafe for our children.

Non mitigable events such as: rainwater percolation, excess noise (Edison substation, construction), air pollution (auto, chimney emissions) along with disturbing life cycles and habitats (trees, vines, birds, insects, and animals) will occur if the land is further developed, City resources such as fire, police, waste management will be stressed beyond current capacities and legal limits (F,B,I, stats-one officer for every 1000 residents). Also, the vineyard property has archeological heritage and a high sensativity rating for paleontological resourceso further study is suggested to mitigate the above mentioned and explore alternative property uses with consideration given to the cultural, historic, and environ- mental sensative issues. Alternate property uses could include a cultural/ history museum, enlarging Golden Oak Park or creating a community agricultural/ native center. All of these suggestions could tie in and continue the DeBerard legacy. Thank you for considering the above comments. Please keep me informed by continuing my name on the mailing list regarding this property site.
