CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA MEMORANDUM DATE: December 12, 1978 TO: Jack Lam, Director of Community Development FROM: Bill Hofman, Planning Assistant SUBJECT: Environmental Constraints on two proposed subdivisions located north of the City boundaries. the following is a brief analysis of Environmental Constraints for the subject properties. LOCATION: Site A - north of City boundary between Hermosa Avenue and Haven Ave. Site B - north of City boundary between Archibald and Hermosa (See attached location maps). EWIRONMENTAL CONSTRAINTS: Tectlonic Constraints - The two areas are located immediately north of the Alquisi•.- Priolo Cucamonga Fault Special Study Zone. The Cucamonga Fault is a left - lateral reverse fault, thus, damage resulting from an earthquake would likely be more severe on the north side of tre fault. Our seismic safety study group is con- sidering reco=ending extension of the Alquist -- Priolo zone further to the north. It is recommended that a geotechnical report be completed by the applicant prior to development of the land. Such'reporc should include trenching infor- mation, landslide and flooding potential, and detailed soil analysis. Topography •• Site A -- This site is located on a plateau west of Deer Canyon Wash. A stream courre runs through the center of the property and could create a flooding hazard during storm periods. The average slope is 5:1 (20X). A considerable amount of grading would have to take place to create building pads. Site H - This site is located on a plateau adjacent to Demens Canyon. The average slope of the site is approximately 5:1 (20X). As with Site A, a considerable amount of grading would be required to create building pads. Landsliding - Site A - According to the California Division of Mines and Geology Special Report 113,. "Geologic Hazards in Southwestern San Bernardin, County, Calif. ", landslide susceptibility for this site is low to moderate. Generally, superficial soil slips, debris flows, and mtid flows are the dominant landslide types of this site. Problems could be identified in a geotechnical report as previously recommended. Page 2 Site B-- .This•sitr. is generally devrid of landslides. In summary, both sites have Environmental Constraints and should be reviewed accordingly. One furttier.Bnvironmental Impact is the visual impact of development in the hillside areas. Both sides are located on hillside plateaus and are visible from the entire: City. If development were to occur, it is recommended that visual treatment be incorporated into any development plan. If you have any further questions on this, please see me.

ROLL CALL PRESENT: COMMISSIONERS: Herman Rempel, Jorge Garcia, Laura Jones ABSENT: CMDIISSIONERS: Richard Dahl and Peter Tolstoy ALSO PRESENT: Jack Lam, Barry Hogan, Bill Hofman, Councilman Jon Mikels, Ted Hopson and representatives of the various school districts a Chairman Rempel asked each of the districts to review their opinions and desires in regard to the current moratorium and proposed growth management plan. Cucamonga School District expressed a desire that the moratorium be lifted but had no comments on a growth management plan. Central School District indirated that they.are currently on double session and are in the process of purchasing portable units. for pp.semb.1y on a new site to eliminate the double session. The current enrollment -of the school district is now at 2300, by 1980, if the moratorium is lifted, the enrolltrient would be 2800. Central School District's preference was that the moratorium remain. i Alta Loma School District said that about 90% of the 800 dwelling units that are pending are in their school district. Currently 1763. dwelling units are under construction within their district. With 561 available for sale now, 1049 students total are expected out of the units currently under construction. They are on double.session and are hopeful that with the opening of the new Stork School in February, double session will be eliminated., Additionally, there would be some leeway for absorbing. additional students of the district. The capacity is approximately 3500 students in the R -6 category. Currently, they are on triple session at the junior high onccol but should be minimized in the near future. They wholeheartedly favor continuation of the moratorium for at least a year before they would be able to support lifting the moratorium. Y. Page 1 of 2 / M A. civanda School District supports a growth mauugcme t concept. They said that they can abrorb approximately 75 students at this time. They indicate that they have no bond money and therefore they need to gain as many dollars as they can through the implementation of SB201 or some alternative method. Chaffey High School District supports the continuation of the moratorium. Thty have approximately 2600 students now at Alta Loma High School and are t. /Prating at approximately 100 less than they have students than they hrd saticipated. They believe that they need more money from SB201 if the mora- rium were to be lifted. They support dealing with developers in lieu of the sends going through the City for SB201. They would support the growth manage- . meat plan if the C:Yp ]Tft.: •'.a• 4 - -1i c. +riven. i, !••wcr, they Stressed th ^_ fact that they are now on a 10 period day, (6 peria'ds being a normal day) and would object to the lifting of the moratorium. Ken Willis of the B.I.A. expressed concern that a moratorium would in fact be punishing a single industry within the community and would adversely impact jobs and incomes. Mr. Willis suggested that instead of taking the moratorium approach, that all interested parties begin identifying specific problems and trying to-develop solutions for these problrms. Chairman Rempel thanked the developers and the school districts for their input regarding the possible lifting of the moratorium avid the growth management plan. The Planning Commission then voted to continue further discussion of this .tem to November 29, 1978. Meetings was adjourned at 7:00 p.ia.

Rempel, and Peter Tolstoy ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: none ALSO PRESENT: Jack Lam, Lloyd Hubbs, Michael Vairin, Ted Hopson, Barry Hogan, Bill HofmAn and N .qrry Empey. A The Director displayed the approved tentative list indicating the number of sewered dwelling, units approved and the number of non - sewered dwelling units app roved, indicating that this establishes the scale to work with. The tentatives not approved (approximately 2,700) were displayed also. It was noted that many of these may drop out hence reducing the unapproved tentatives significantly. It was stresard that this list is tentative and have not been reviewed or approved by any agency. The Director reviewed the growth management strategy and its constraints explaining that there are three phases: 1) Phase development and create procedures for establishing development for approved tentatives; 2) continue ` the B.I.A. agreement for non - sewered tentatives and begin allocation of the approved tentatives through a growth management strategy; 3) development and implementation of the growth management plan and begin processing those tentatives submitted but not approved. The Director displayed the work pro- gram and indicated the time involved for the implementation of the growth management plan from its inception to City Council adoption on July, 1979. Time Constraints or Development was reviewed. The Director indicated a 14 month lag period from time of issuance of permits to occupancy of the dwelling units. i After considerable discussion a motion was made by Commissioner Dahl and se- tonded by Commissioner Garcia to 1) schedule some phasing of the approved V i •G: Y f F i' r 0 :entativea and 2) work with the B.I.A., Lewis development, Trinity development and two membera of the Planning Commission on ways of solving the problem of a schnnl rite for the Alta Loma School District. Appointed to that committee were Commissioners Jones and Garcia. Motion passed unanimously. :ieeting was adjourned at 9 aS to the December 13 Planning Commission meeting.

Included in your packet is a reduction (Exhibit "A "), for the proposed shopping center now under con- struction: Building "D" is the Pomona First Federal Savings and Loan; Building "C" is Bob's Big Boy Restaurant; Building "B" is retail shops; Building "A" con- tains the proposed 2,700 square foot Erirs Head Restaurant. The purpose, as stated in the Zoning Ordinance, of the C -1 District is for small, limited shopping centers planned and designed to meet neighborhood shopping needs. The code allows for cafe or restaurant but excludes enter- tainment and dancing. ANALYSIS: The questions posed by the application are as follows: 1) Is the proposed use allowable in the C -1 District? 2) Is the proposed use compatible with the existing center and the surrounding land uses? 3) Can the Commission adequately condition the use so that it does not become �)bnoxicus or detrimental to the area? Liberally interpreting the code, we believe that the proposed use, subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit is allowable in the C-1 District* It can be seasonably inferred that cafe or restaurant exclusive of dancing and entertainment are not problem uses, but with dancing and entertainment could have a propensity to cause problems and therefore require conditions of approval to mitigate or eli- minate those possible problems. In regard to the adequacy of parking, it is our belief that the primary operation of the use would occur in the off hours of the center; that is, the primary parking and traffic generatinns would be at night when the shops in the Buildings "A" and "B" would be closed. Therefore, there would be extra parking. However, it should be noted that any additional requests for similar uses would be scrutinized quite closely for parking adequacy. ITEM "A" Regarding compatibility, the building housing the proposed use is designed -to have its primary openings facing the streets or the center, therefore limiting any possible noise intrusion onto the adjacent residential property. Question 44 speaks of the ability for the Commission to condition the use so that it is compatible to the surrounding land uses. In this regard we suggest that the Planning Commission consider: a) establishing hours of operation in keeping with the neighborhood usage of the center; b) establish a one time review period whereby the Commission would assess the present situation and determine whether or not the use was still proper for the arza, RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Planning Co =ission approve Condi- tional Use Permit No. 78 -03 and adopt Resolution No. 78 -40.

WHEREAS, on the 27th day of December, 1978, the Raucho Cucamonga Planning Commission held a meeting to consider the above described project. NOW, THEREFORE, the Rancho Cucamonga Planning Commission resolved as follows: 1 SECTION 1: That the following findings have been made: 1. The site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed use, and landscaping and setbacks are pro - vided which are compatible with existing development in the surrounding area. 2. The site for the proposed use relates to streets and highways properly designed, both as to width and type of pavement to carry the type and quantity of traffic generated by the rnbject use. 3. There will not be an adverse effect upon abutting pro - perty. 4. In requiring the conditions in the report, the Commission deems such requirements to be the minimum necessary to protect the health, safety and general welfare. 5. This project will not be objectionable nor detrimental to existing uses permitted in the zone district in which this project is- located, 6. This project will not be contrary to the objectives of the proposed Master Plan and will not be in conflict with the purpose and intent of the Zoning Ordinance. SECTION 2: That the Planning Commission sets the following conditions on the above described project: 1. Developer shall comply with the latest adopted Uniform Building Code, Uniform Mechanical Code. Uniform Plumbing '. Code, National Electric Code and all other applicable codes. 1! 2. Approval of this request shall not excuse compliance with all other applicable City Ordinances in effect at this time. 3.

This approach provides n more positive aesthetic image than n temporary structure unless: said temporary structure was "dressed up'.' to not. look like a temporary structure. Developers hnve noL elected to da this mince the cost for dressing up a temporary structure cost., more than converting the garage to a sales office and reconverting it back to a usable garnge. Usually the office improvements mnde to the garage, such as finishing, specSal lighting. etc., is rcc•over.ed in the sales price of the m"cicl since the person purr.hasing the model also, hnvs the finished garage. .Conversion of these garages for tract sales offices is itcc•omplisiied through an ;Ipplication fol, a temporary ecru- panty permit (T.O.p.). This is a very simple process in which a location plan is submitted. a small fee pair!. a bond posted Lo insure rcconversiou after the sales or the tract, and the release or the bend back to the developer after the j inspection of the reconversion. We have net., been faced with the question of viloLher a developer may utilize a trailer as a sales office nu site. Tn the part the County has approved a number of sale nffires of this type; however, .staff cannot find any clear authority within the ordinance wherchy ;arch nppruval may be made.

'therefore, tract sales off scr, could be ;A],Iable through a location and b.wcInpment site approval which requires a public hearing; lit-tore the I•lanninl; Commission. The question might then arise that, if tract sales offices in trailers are to he allowed, why should then ;o hnve Lo go through I public hnanin;; process. The answer is very simple.

This is only a draft for the Planning Commission to review for eventual adoption as the Commission's Rulcs.of Order.. This document covers the election of officers, meetings, agendas, voting procedures, rules for conduct of proceedings, rules of debate, decorum, policies regarding attendance, etc. I would like to draw the Commission's attention specifically to Item N -Z (Attendance). This section has some general verbage regarding atten- dance at Planning Commission meetings. We hav- left a blank space below this item to indicate that there should be some further explanation of the exact number of meetings any one Commissioner may miss b--fore that member is no longez considered an effect!.re member of the Commission, and therefore, automatically removed. This section varies from City to City and only the Planning Commission can decide that specific policy. In reviewing this document, the Planning Conrnission should note where nmodifica- tions are desired as well as additions and deletions. This is the Planning Com- mission's Administrative Regulations, and therefore, should reflect the policies and inclinations of this Planning Commission. Further attached to the Adlninia trative Regulations are exhibits which would assist the presiding officer and Planning Commission members in conducting the order of business, public* Ilea rings and making motions. If you have any questions in regard to these proposed Admini.scrative Regulations, please don't hesitate to contact me for further discussion.

The.Act is not intended to prevent cities and counties from establishing . policies and criterias which are stricter than those established by the Act. SPECIFIC CRITERIA The following specific criteria applies within the Special Studies Zones` . and must be included in any planning program, ordinance; rules and regulations adopted by cities pursuant to said special Studies Zones Act: 1. No structure for human occupancy, public or private, shall be permitted to be placed across the trace of.an active fault. Furthermore, the area within fifty (50) feet of an active fault shall be assumed to be underlain by active branz-hes of that fault unless and until proven otherwise by an appropriate geologic investigation and submission of a report by a geologist registered in the State of California. This 50 foot standard is intended to represent minim nn criteria only for all structures. Certain Essential or critical structures, such as high -rise buildings, hospitals, and schools should be subject to more restrictive criteria at the discretion of Cities and Counties. 2. Application for a development permit for any pre-ject (as defined previously) within a specia!,studies zone shall be accompanied by a geologic report prepared"by a geologist registered in the State of California, and directed to the problem of potential surface fault displacement through the project site, unless such report is waived pursuant to the Act. 3. One (1) copy of all such geologic reports shall be filed with. the State Geologist by the public body - having jurisdiction within thirty days following acceptance by the approving jurisdiction. The State Geologist shall place such reports on open file. 4. 'A geologist registered in tte State of California, within or retained by each City or County, must evaluate the geologic reports required herein and advise the body having jurisdiction' and authority. 5. Cities and Counties may establish policies and criteria which are more restrictive than those established herein. - In particular, the Board believes that comprehensive geologic and engineering studies .should be required for any "critical". or "essential" structure as .previously defined .whethat or not it is located within a special studies zone. 6. In accordance with Section 2625 of the Public Resources Code, each applicant for approval of a project'with'a delineated special studies zone may be charged a reasonable fee by the City or County having jurisdiction over the project. CITY OF R:1NCHO COCAHONGA - STAFF REPORT Date: November 22, 1978 To: Planning Commission From: dack.Lam, Director of Community Development Subject: CERVICE STATION STANDARDS ABSTRACT: Presently service stations are permitted in the C -1, C -2 and M -1 zones of the Counry Zoning Ordinance. They are subject to Director.Review and must comply with the setback regulations as stipulated in the Ordinance excerpt below: (1) SERVICE STATION SETBACKS: (Am. Ord. 1413. 2/26/68) (1) Street Setbacks (A) Protective pump island canopies shall maintain a setback of five (5) feet from the right -of -way shown on the adopted Master Plan of Highways. (B) Pump islands, when designed parallel co the nearest right -of- way, shall maintain a setback of fifteen (15) feet from the right- of-way shown on the adopted Master Plan of Highways. (C) Pump islands, when designed at an angle of thirty (30) degrees or more to the nearest right -of -way, shall maintain a setback of twetAty -five (25) feet from the r1ght-of -way shown on the adopted Master Plan of Highways. (D) Area lighters shall maintain a setback of one (1) foot from the right -of -way shown on the adopted Master Plan of Highways. (E) Free- standing identification signs (which have previously been approved by Planning Commission action) shall maintain a setback of five (5) feet from the right - of-way shown on the adopted Master Plan of Highways to the leading edge of the sign. (F) All other structures over four (4) feet in height shall main- tain setbacks as required in Section 61.0219(k). (2) Interior Side Yard Requirements. See Section 61.027A(i). (3) Rear Yard Required: See Section 61.027A(j) r� ITEM p M `J Memo - Planning Commiss • Service Station Stanuar Page 2 The problems that we have with the present code requirements are twofold: 1) lack of adequate standards; 2) lack of conditional use permit process. We have conducted a su-vey of the adjacent cities to gather together their requirement for development of service stations. A summary of their require- ments are attached as are our recommendations for Rancho Cucamonga. DISCUSSION: In summary, the development requirements of the Cities surveyed are very detailed. They refer to such specifics as: • lot size • lot width and depth • number of pump islands • distance of pump islands from • parking • signing • lighting • service bays • trash areas access landscaping r es trr omua . walls and fences street right of way • full service stations vs. self- service and mixed use • architectural review • conditional use permits It is our belief that it is not necessary to delineate all of the items listed above in the City's standards for service stations. Parking, signing, lot size, depth and width, trash areas, walls and fences can and will be covered in the Zoning Ordinance. Further, it is not our intent to develop such detailed stan- dards so as to restrict or confine the developers to designing one particular type of service station. Presently, the Zoning Ordinance requires that four parking spaces be provided; our proposed sign ordinance will allow 36 square feet of freestanding signing. Our Site Approval process will allow the Planning Commission the authority to condition any application and require public notification of the property owners within 300 feet of a proposed site. Further, the access policy adopted by the Planning Commission establishes the permitted number of driveways. There- fore, the issue of service station standards comes down to two points: • Amend the zoning ordinance to require Site Approval rather than the Director Review presently required; • Create development standards that would include such things as setbacks, landscape requirements, standard conditions of approval. M Memo - Planning Commia Service ration Stand ar s Page 3 The standards as presented herein are in two parts: 1) property standards, i.e. the numbers and 2) performance standards, i.e. how dox_s the City want the property to perform. RECOMMMATIOA: It is recommended that the Planning Coam:ieri.on review the proposed standards and direct staff to agendize a zoning ordinance amendment to incorporate those atandards in our Zoning Ordinance. Community Development JL:BKH :nm Attachment: Auto Service Station Standards i RANCHO CUCA14ONGA PROPOSED AUTOMOBILE SERVICE STATION STANDARDS INTENT It is the intent of these Standards to provide guidelines for the development of service stations with respect to design, traffic patterns and compatibility with adjacent land uses.

CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA STAFF REPORT DATE: December 27. 1976 TO: PLANNING COMMISSION FROM: JACK LAM, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY SUBJECT: LANDSCAPE STANDARDS FOR SPECIAL BOULEVARDS, MAJOR AND SECONDARY THOROUGHFARES. AND COLLECTOR STREETS. BACKGROUND: The Circulation Element of the General Plan denotes several different kinds of traffic ways; special boulevards, major thoroughfares, secondary thoroughfares and collector streets. 'The text of the Plan discusses the need for parkway landscaping on each. However, the Zoning Ordinance does not con_a'_n standards for implementation of these policies. It is therefore necessary to develop standards for parkway landscaping. Once standards have been formulated, they can be incorporated into the new Zoning Ordinance. :.PECIAL BOULEVARDS: Six (6) major thoroughfares are identified as special boulevards; Foothill Blvd., Archibald, Haven, Milliken, Etiwanda, and Baseline. The text of the Plan indicates that increased landscaped parkways should be used to provide a distinct identity for special blvds. In addition to increased landscaping, design elements such as meandering sidewalks, mounded landscaping, pedestrian plazas, low profile walls and fences„ and textured sidewalks and crosswalks, can be used to denote special boulevards. Since Foothill Blvd. is the City's major east /west focal point, a higher standard should be used. Following are proposed standards: Foothill Blvd.: All new development or redevelopments shall provide landscaping at an average depth of 25', measured from the front property Line, along the entire street frontage. In no case, shall the depth, as measured from the front property line, be less than 15'. This landscap- ing shall be in addition to the parkway landscaping between the curb and property line (Exhibit "A "). Other Special Blvds.: All new development or redevelopments shall provide a landscaped area across the entire boulevard frontage at an average depth equal to 20% of the depth of the property. The depth of the property shall be measured from the property line adjacent to and parallel with the boulevard to the opposite parallel property line. This landscaped area need not exceed 35' in depth; however, in no case shall there be less than 15' in depth as measured from the face of the curb. Such area shall include any required sidewalks or walkways. (Exhibit `V'). E%HIBIT Oyu t- •! Y STAFF REPORT Page 2 MAJOR AND SECONDARY THOROUGHFARES: Major thoroughfares not shown as special boulevards are; Carnelian Vineyard, Fourth St., and a portion of Milliken and Etiwanda. Secondary thoroughfares are indicated as; Carnelian, Beryl, Banyan, 19th, Arrow, Grove, Wilson, and Seventh St. The following standard is proposed for major and secondary thoroughfares. All new developments or redevelopments shall provide a landscaped area across the entire street frontage at an average depth -of 25' as measured from the face of curb. In no race shall this dimension be less than 15' in depth (Exhibit "B ") . COLLECTOR STREETS: The remaining streets indicated on the Plan are collector streets. Staff feels that landscape standards are also needed for collectors In order to establish consistency among developments. The following collector street standard is proposed: All new developments or redevelopments shall provide a landscaped area across the entire street frontage at an average depth of 20' as.measured from the face of curb_ In no case shall this dimension be less than 15' in depth. (Exhibit "B "), RECOMMENDATION. The Planning Division staff recommends that the Commission con- sider such policies and instruct staff to prepare a necessary resoltuion for future adoption. Respectfully a bmitted, JACK LAM, DIRECTOZ OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT JL:MV:em Attachments: Exhibits "A" & "B" FOOTHILL KVD. O'TAND4RD 4, •a Y.. y�1 Er f J Er 0 CITY OF RAVZHO CUCAMONGA STAFF REPORT DATE: December 27, 1978 TO: Planning Commission FROM: Jack Lam, Director of Community Development SUBJECT: CLARIFICATION OF MIXED USE CATEGORY AND STANDARDS FOR IMPLEMENTATION BACKGROUND: The proposed Land Use map indicates areas for mixed use. The designation as discussed is the text of plan indicates this use to be for apartments, offices, and institutions (i.e. churches, convalescent homes, etc.). Recently we've had inquiries as to the types of development the City would permit in the mixed use designation. Past Commission indicatioaa as to the meaning of mixed use are that A P (Administrative Professional) and R -3 (multiple residential) zoning would implement the mixed use category. Problems occur in the permitted uses of each of these zones. The A -P uses list includes not only R -3 but R -2, R -1 and agricultural uses. The R -3 uses include R -1; R -2 and agricultural uses. We believe that clarification is necessary as to the uses the Planning Commission would permit in the mixed use category. Upon further examination of the mixed use designation, we feel that office use generates limited ancillary commercial uses such as eating establishments, print shups, stationary stores arid the like. These uses are normally found in close proximity to offices if not in the same center as the office use. In order to implement t1-e mixed use designation as inttTded, we would suggest that the Commission permit, subject to Site Approval, limited ancillary commer- cial uses in vhe mixed use areas when thEy are in conjunction with a professional office center. Because these ancillary uses would be subject to Site Approval the Commission has the opportunity to look at each use in terms of how it would fit in with the center, its relation to the clientele proposed for the center, and the character of the surrounding area. It is quite possible, in -:he near future, that applications could be before the Commission requesting app-oval of single family homes or duplexes in the mixed use area. The Commission should be aware that if and when these appli- cations do occur, that it would be staff's position that these proposals would not be in conformance with the general plan and therefore would be denied. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Commission concur with the procedure described above allowing ancillary commercial uses subject to Site Approval in ITEM "G" i mixed ase areas. Additionally; R -3 zr.ing in the mixed use area would be for multiple units only. In order to resolve the conflicts existing in the A -P and R -3 zones, Staff would also uggest that the Planning Commission direct staff to prepare a zoning ordinance amendment to solidify the examples listed above. Res cct�tf��ul�l((y s�ubmitted, q. JACK LAM, Director of Co=unity DevElopment 11 r H JL:SKH: nm i r CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA STAFF REPORT DATE: 12127/78 T0: PLANNING COMMISSION. FROM: JACK LAM, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT SUBJECT: Request for waiver of site plan review for a temporary business location on the east side of Rochester south of Foothill Blvd. BACKGROUND: As you will recall, the Commission approved a site plan for the development of a retail hardware and wholesale lumber store nt its meeting of October 25, 1978 (Exhibit "A "). This facility is proposed xo be located on the south side of Foothill Blvd., west of Rochester. Steven Perryman, who is representing Mr. Dewitt, is requesting that the Commission allow them to tem- porarily locate their lumber business an a different site than that previously approved by the Commission while their permanent site is being developed (Exhibit "B "). In addition, the applicant has requested that the Commission waive fees, subrittal of plans and review of such temporary location. The applicant will have a site plan on display at the Planning Commission meeting. The applicant would also like to eventually gain Commission approval for the use of a mobile office facility on their permanent site once site improvements have been completed. ANALYSIS: Section 61.0219(a) -5 of the Zoning Ordinance permits interim office facilities for industrial and commercial uses for a specified interim period of time subject to approval of a location and development plan. Location and development plan review requires the submission of an application, fees, plans and a public hearing before the Planning Commission. Staff can find no justi- ficatioa or reason for not following the Ordinance review procedures. Staff indicaued to the applicant what review procedures are required by Ordinance; however, the applicant felt that the review procedures were burdensome in terms of costs and time. There are no provisions within the Ordinance that would allow the Commission to waive review procedures under any circumstances. RECOMMENDATION: Since there are no ordinance provisions to allow the Planning Commission to waive the review procedures for the location and development of a temporary wholesale lumber business, staff recommends that the Commission direct the applicant to file formal applications, fees, and plans for the Commission's review if the applicant chooses to pursue this matter.
