II. ANALYSIS:
A; General: The applicant is proposing to build a 72;.,,0 square
foot building, consisting of 14r000 square feet of office and
58,000 'square feet of warehouse within the Mission_ Bcrsiness
Center. The office area will serwi as the headquarters for
PRW
Paris International. To complement v'II large amount of office
space, the building's architectur;. elements have: been
upgraded beyond what has typigally been required for warehouse
buildings.
The project is in conformance with the regulations and design
guidelines of th3 Mission` Business Center r <a well as the
industrial Area Specific Plan. Upon approval'of a Negative
Declaration, the City Plannp= will grant final approval of the
project based on conditions recommended by the Design and
Technical Review Committees.
B. Design Review Committee: She project' was last seen by the
Design Review Committee (Chitiea, Melcher, Xroutil) on
March 21, 1991. At that meetinap the Committee recommended
approval subject to the following conditions:
1. The secondary entry, mid - building, and lunch court should
receive the same popped -out column treatment that is
proposed for the main entry.
2. The parapet height should be raised at the secondary
entry to match that of the main entry at the southeast
corner of the building.
3. The second floor of the lunch court columns should have
polished granite to mates the rest of the building. The
southerly panel of the garden wall purr- unding the lunch

courS'should be removed to bLtow accless from the lunch
cou=` ,to the surrounding landsc,�pin
4. Paving treatment of the pedestrian areas should utilize
washed aggregate bands surrounding sandblasted squares
f which ark e�,'tasized by rough finished granite pavers
where the aggregate bands intersect. Exposed walls in
these areas should match the corresponding horizontal
treatment.
S. The final accent color should be reviewed and approved by
staff once the shipment of granite has arrived. The
accent color should be subtle to avoid overpowering the
elegance of the polished granite.
Revised plans have been submitted which incorporate the above
items, with the exception of comment No. 5 which will be
included as a condition of approval.
C. Technical Review Oemmittee• on December 17, 1990, the
Committee reviewed tLa project and determined that >-ith the
recommended Standa_d Conditions of Approval r projsct'"is
consistent with all applicable standards and ord.;;riances.
D. Environmental Assessment• Parts I and II of'the Initial Study
NW have been cemPleted and it has. been d6termined that,`no
significant environmental impacts will be` created by ,'the
project.
III. FACTS FOR FINDINGS: The proposed use is consistent with the
Geae_al Plan and the Industrial Specific Plan. The building
design and site plan, together with recommended conditions of
approval, are in compliance with the Industrial Specific Plan and
the Mission Business Center Development Design Guidelines and all
other applicable glty standards.
i
IV. RECOMMENDATION: / Staff recommends that the Planning Commission
issue a Negative Declaration for Development Review 90 -19.

RE: Application for Tenati've Parcel Map
13693 and for vari�arce -Luna
Dear Commissioners:
As members of the Board of Dir" °4o3.s of the Northwoods Properties
Community Association, we we' attendance at the Planning
Commission's March 27th meg * ",ng �t which the first public .hearing on
the atnve applications wer, rheld.' As you know, we were represented
at that meeting by Linda Frost and our attorney, Charles Doskow.
We were pleased to be able to report to our members that the
Commission accepted our position with respect to access to the two
lots being created by Mr. Luna's for split. Although many things were
said by commission members in the course of their discussion, it was
clear to us that the commission, whatever its doubts, was prepared to
assure that access to these lots would be from the north.
After having an opportunity to dsacuss the Association's position,
the Board again strongly afi: rmt- our position on this key issue.
Two aspects of the discussion among the commissioners require
coma t_
We were somewhat puzzled by Commissioner Melcherls concern that
access to Cobrosa Place from Lot 2 might somehow be jeoaardized in
the future. That access is assured as a condition of map approval,
by a legally enforceable easement. Many valuable properties in
rw Rancho Cucamonga and elsewhere have access in this manner. There
should be no issue of the certainty.of access.
In this regard, Standard Condition A -4 is the critical item for
assuring that the concerns of the member of the Association are being
met. We urge the Commission not to alter this standard condition,
i
is
Commissioner'Melcher, in questioning the position of staff, applicant
and the Association, made the statement that planning b'y the
neighborhood is not neGassarily good planning; he expressed concerns
with respect to the area north of Northridge Drive. The Association
is concerned as to the affect the _lot split "and - granted easement
rights will have in regard to the associations property. The
principle of planning for which is 'contended could only strengthen-
the neighborhood, at no cost to any other area. We believe that this
constitutes sound planning.
The interest 'car the Commission in assuring sound planning for a
developing, -irea is obvious, and is shared by us, it appeared from
the discussion that the four week continuance was adpted solely to
allow time 'to formulate a plan which assures that the line between
the No= l,46ods Tract and the developing area will be respectc�d-
although some remarks of Commission members were not entirely clear
in that regard.
The Association does not have a vested interest in, -the time frame
within which Mr. Luna's project is approved. oL+�` members are,
however, anxious that the items which we hav;P-addressed be decidsd as
soon as possible. alanniag for the arc, b `cween Wilson and
Northridge may go on for some-time. It, appears possible for the
commission to affirm Condition A -4' independently -of the: balance of
the application. If further delays in the application are in
prospect, we urge the commission to affirm Condition A -4:
li
The courtesy with which our representatives were treated is
appreciated. You may rely on our continued participation in the::-,
consideration of these applications,
�IVVIA,

STAFF REPORT
DATE: April 24, 1991
T Chairman and Members of the Planning Commission
FROM: Barrye R. Hanson, Senior Ciea°" Engineer
BY: Betty A. Miller, Associate Engineer
SUBJECT: ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP 13693 - LUNA - A
subdivision of acre of and Into z parses !n a ery Low
Residential District (less than 2 dwelling units ner acre), located
on the north side of Northridge Drive, west of Haven Avenue -
APN: 201- 182 -29. Rebated file: Variance 91 -04. Staff reconmends
issuance of Negative Declaration. (Continued from March 27, 1991)
I. BACKGROUND: This item was co :itinued from the March 27, 1991 Planning
o�si seting in order for staff to investigate alternative master
plans for the area to the north to see if rA better assets could be
provided to Parcel 2 of th'; s proposed parcel map. A copy Of the previous
staff report is attached for your refe once.
II. DISCUSSION: The proposed parcel map and its relationship to the master
plan area s shown on Exhibit "H" Note that the Exhibits start with "H"
in this report to not be confused with A thru -G contained in the March
27, 1991 report. Several master plan layouts were 2;nvestigated.. The
main constraint controlling the master planning effort is that only one
street, aligned with Cartilla Avenue on the north side of Wilson Avenue,
can serve the master plan area from either Wilson or Haven Avenues. Both
of these streets are arterials, with intersection spacing restricted to
600 feet. Even if closer spacing were allowed, an additional street
connection would provide secondary access- to the master plan area, but
would not solve the concern of access to Parcel 2.
The master plan shown on Exhibit `I" is the most straight forward in
providing direct street access to Parcel 2; however, it has the following I
disadvantages:
1. It utilizes a four -way local to local street intersection which is
discouraged because studies have shown that they produce more
accidents than "tee" intersections.
2. It imposLes substantially more street improvements and right -of -way
upon existing Parcel 28 which already has streets on two sides.
3. The addittonai street right -of -way will precl.ade the portion
existing Parcel 28 at the southwest corner of CartilIa and Street
"A" from b! +ing subdivided into two parcels.
ITEM B
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT
TENT PM 13693 - LUNR
APRIL 24, 1991
PAGE 2
WV
4. Lot 2 of the future subdivision of existing Parcel 30 will be
dependent upon the devel ^Prznt of Parcel 28 for'aecess.
S. It restricts the future subdivision of the portion if ;existing
Parcel 30 south of Street "A" to four parcels versus f.ve as shown
on Exhibit N".
5. It increases the variance required for the proposed Parcel Map (an
additional 600± square feet of lot area lost tc street dedication
on Parcel 2).
7. Most importantly, the master plan; does not solve the immediate
concern of access to Parcel 2. The southerly extension of Cartilla
Avenue, which would provide that access, is on property not owned
by this applicant.
The second master plan .shown on Exhibit" "J" somewhat lessens
disadvantages 2 and 3 of the master plan shown on Exhibit "H ", but
introduces a skewed intersection which adversely affects safety.
Exhibit "K" is a refinement of the master plan shown on previous Exhibit
"C ". It shows that an additional two parcels could conceivably be
obtained south,of Street "A" using that master plan street alignment.
III. CONCLUSION:' Staff was able to design a master plan that could provide
long rm direct street access to Parcel 2, but that master plan does
present othlar disadvantages and does not' - provide an innediate access
solution. The Commission appaars to have the following options:
1. Approve the Parcel Map_ as proposed with Parcel 2 taking access
across Parcel 1 to Cabrosa Place.i
2. Approve the Parcel Map modified t6 require that (a) both parcels or
(b) Parcel 2 only take access from Northridge Drive.•
3. Deny the Parcel Map as proposed directing the applicant to refile a
new Parcel Map (and variance) conforming to the master plan shown
on Exhibit "I' or "J" and to obtain access rights across the
adjacent property extending to'Wilson Avenue.

TI. ANALYSIS:
hal purpose a this parcel map f.s to subdivide a one acre parcel into two
half. -acre parcels consistent with the
Very Low Resdentiau' District
designation. Staff initially recommended that both Lots front
Northridge Drive, because
onto
it was felt that the fronts of houses would
present a more aesthetic streetscape for the homes
would
to the south than
a rear yard iw,311. There was also some - concern about the master
planning implications for
vacant parcels
Project site: to the north and east of the
Staff reconme. ded that the applicant hold a neighborhood meeting on the
tentative parcel map, since Parcel
Piap` 5996 i
generated significant neighborhood interest. n Residentsiniof the
development on
the south side of Northridge Drive have made it clear,
both , during the neighborhood meeting
and in subsequent c «:+munications
directed to staff, that they object to lots fronting on the
Northridge Drive. north
side
Respecting the neighbor's wishes, the applicant is now
proposing to access both parcels off a single drive
Place,
approach on Cabrosa
with a 20 -foot wide access easement along the north property line
of parcel 1 in favor of parcel 2.
Both access configurations, using .Cabrosa Place versus Northridge Drive,
were presented to the Trails Committee
to determine what the local
equestrian trail requirements would be under the two
plans. The
optional master
applicable recommendations have been included in the
conditions of approval. Fire Protection
_A District representative has
also reviewed the proposed map and suggested a coi►dition of
allowing them to review
approval
the access to parcel 2 upon development.
A. Master Piannin
Three large vacant parcels remain north and east of the project
site. The City's access Policy for arterial-_
streets will allow one
additional intersection on Wilson Avenue between Mayberry and Haven
Avenues. Exhibit "C"
illustrates how W(s area might be developed
if the concept of no access to Northridge Drive is also
the balance
applied to
of the vacant property. Exhibit "D" shows how the same
area could be developed if
up to 5 lots were alI owed- to front onto
Northridge Drive. The issues are as follows:
1. In both alternatives, all of the roaster planned cul -de -sacs
exceed 600 feet in length. In - "C ",
7xhibi t three cull-de-sacs
(21 lots) will utilize a single access
In "D an
Exhibit point Wilson Avenue.
", two cul -de -sacs (18 lOft) will do so. The Fire
Protection District
has not expressed concern with either
alternative, since all new home
construction requires
sprinklers. The difference between 18 and 21 lots
is nominal.

2. Exhibit "D" does allow the local equestrian trail system to he
interior to the VL district rather than on the perimeter,
adjacent to Northridge Drive.
3. A detail was provided, on the Conceptual Grading Plan (Exhibit
"E ") of a north - south cross section (Exhibit "F ") taken through
parcel 1 and Northridge Drive, to illustrate the relative
position of houses, streets, trails,_ and slopes. Note that
sides of houses will be visible from the south side of
Northridge Drive in the proposed configuration, unless the
height of the perimeter wall is increased. Under the alternate
master plan, that view woad be of front yards.
4. If access to parcel 2 is taken from Cabrosa Place, that driveway
will be more than 200 feet long. The fire Protection, District
will need a way for its vehicles to turn around or have an
alternate exit route available.
B. Neighborhood Concerns:
A neighborhood meeting was held in December 18, 1990. Attendees-
included residents of Northwood Vistas, a Low- Riedium Residential
development (4 -8 dwelling units,per acre) immediately south of the
f project site, and the owners of a vacant parcel east of tote project
site. The residents of Northwood Vistas objected to i'„onting
either parcel onto Northridge Drive for three reasons:
I. The larger lots oe the north side of ,Northridge Drive can
accommodate equestrian uses. Use of tie ' neighborhood streets by
large vehicles Luch as horse trailers would conflict with the
homeowners association prohibition against recreational vehicle
storage.
2. The homeowners association currently maintains the park,vay slope
on the north side of Northridge Drive. Residents object to
driveways disrupting the existing slope landscaping and
perimeter fenc%9 .
3. The residents perceive Nortnwoods Villas as a close -knit
community and feel that the VL lots proposed would be
uncharacteristic of that community. They would not anticipate
the acceptance of those lots into the homeowners association, if
such a request were made.
Subsequent to the neighborhood meeting, the City has received 133
signed form letters (Exhibit "G ") fram members of the Northwood
Homeowners Association, objecting to any plans to construct
driveways or streets leading into the community from Northridge
Drive. They feel this would compromise their privacy and security.

C. Trails Advisory Committee:
The Committee reviewed the project on February 20, 1991, and
recommended the following trail requirements:
I. If the prop,-sed access configuration is used (access from
Cabrosa Place), a 15 foot wide local feeder trail should be
provided along the entire southerly boundary of Parcel's 1 and 2,
and a 10 foot wide local feeder trail should be provided along
the east side of Parcel 2.
2. If the alternate is used (access from Northridge give), a 15
foot wide local feeder trail should be provided along the entire
northerly boundary of Parcels I and 2.
III. CONCLUSION: The proposed subdivision is compatible with adjacent
property on the north side of Northridge Drive and the related master
plan (Exhibit "C "'), although not optimal, is workable. Staff' has
reservations about providing - access to Cabrosa Place for parcel 2 across
parcel IS but given the concerns of the existing residents, %Ai Northridge
Drive, believes the applicant has offered a viable solution..
IV. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The applIL.:. completed Part I of the Initial
Study. to con acted a field investigation and completed. Part 1I of
the Initial Study. No adverse impacts upon the environment are
anticipated as a result of this }project. Therefore, issuance of Negative
Declaration is appropriate.
V. CORRESPONDENCE: Notice,. of Public bearing have been sent to surrounding
properly owners and plac ?d in tN, Inland Vailey Daily Bulletin. Posting
at the site has also beet, completed.
VI. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Planning Commission consider
all — input anrelements of the Tentative Parcel Map 13693. If after such
consideration, the Commission can recommend approval, then the adoption
of the attached Resolution and issuance of a Negative Declaration wodld
be appropriate.

II. ANALYSIS.
A. Generale- The purpose and intent of the Variance is to provide
Flexibility from _the strict applicat ^•nn of deirelopment
i
standards when special circumstances ;pertaining to the
property such as size, shape, topography, or, location deprive
such property of privileges enjoyed by other properties ir. the
vicinity and in the same district inconsistent with the_; .
objectives of the De f-lopment Code. In reviewing indiLidual'
{ cases for variance, the lollowirg criteria must be considered:
1._ Special Circumstances.
a. Is the property unique with respect of sizi -, shape,
topography, or location?
b. Are there exceptional or extraorWnary circumst':°n._•s
applicable to the property or proposed use that do
not apply generalll!, to other properties, -in the 'same
zone?
2. Preservation of property Right (Hardsh %e
a. Can ;'seasonable use be made of the property without
this Variance?
b. Without this Va:.ixance, the appli::ant denied
privileges enjoyed by owrit?v -;f other properties in
the area?
C. Is 'he hard__.. , self- imposed or created by the
physical constraints of the site?
3. Damage to Others:
a. Will the Variance be detrimental to the public
health, safety, or welfare?
b. Will the granting of this Variance be a special
privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other
prop xties in the samerzone?
B. Specific: Tbi applicant is proposing to subdivide a lot,
approximately one acre in si_e, into two parcels. Parcel 1 is
20,580 square feet_, and parcel 2 is 22,500 square feet. The
Development Code requires a minimum lit size of 20,000 square
feet for the very Low Residential District. Both lots meet
the minimum lot size "requirement of 20,000 square feet.

However, the parcel map falls 960 square feet short of meeting
the fainimum average _ lot size requi'.:ement of 22,500 square
=
feet.
1�
The parcel map is bounded on the south by Northridge Droe, on
the north and west by larger single family lots, and or. the
east by vacant land. ~resent and future lots to the north,
east, and we::•c of the„ site are within the Very Lo,-,Re =-?pu; ial
District, and mt'kt 'Riaintain a minimum size of 20, 0Lu
square feet.
a
The minimum average lot size requirement was
adopted in 1983
to foster and encourage more creative Subdivision 'layouts
t .e., more cul -de -sacs and curvilinear streets). The
stand,rd was not intended to p_oh bit the subdivision of
smaller parcels of lau`i into lots consi -' with the Very Low
Resident,_al District.
A number of the parcel maps which created the surrounding lots
in the Very Low Residential Distri do not have a minimum
average lot size Of 22,Bub square :feet. The adjacent: Parcel
Map 5996, which created four lots on thc-- west side of Cabrosa
Placc, required a Variance (Variancw 87 -18) to meet the
minimum average 'lot size requ;tkement. The average lot size
for that Parcel Flap is 21,750 square feet. Located along the
east side of Mctberry .'_venue and adjacent to Parcel Map 5996
is Parcel Map 7902, which created four lots with, an average
square footage of 21,257 square feet. Approved in 1983, and
granted an ex ;Ision in 1985, Parcel Map 5745 is located on
the west side of Mayberry Avenue and is a mirror image of
Parcel Map 7902-
Allowing a reduction in the average ln;: size req:rement will
not create an usually small lot because both lots will meet or
exceed the minimum lot size and ill other code standards. It
does not appear that approval of this Variance will constitute.
a special privilege, nor will it impact adjacent properties in
any way.
III. FACTS FOR FINDINGS: Before granting a Variance, the Planning
Commission must make all of the f011Ow!m9 required findings:
A. Ti, =_ ALrict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the
aVecif_ -d regulation would result in practical difficulty cr
unnecessary physical hardsh::p inconsisteia with the objectives
of this Development Code.

conditions applicable to -the_ property ; ivolved or to the
intended use of the property. that do not apply generally to
othertproperties in the same zone.
C. Tr:at strict or literal interpretation and enforcement °'ol the
specified regulation would deprive the applicant of the
privileges enjoyed by the owners, of other properties in the
same :zone.
D. That the granting of the Variance will not constitute a grant
of special privilege inconsistent with the limitation cnthe
other properties classified in the same zone.
E. That the granting of ,,the Variance will not be detrimental to
the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious
to properties or improvements in the vicinity.'
IV. CORRESPONDENCE: This item has beou advertised as a public hearing
in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspape the property has
been posted, and notices have been sent tosll property owners
within 300 feet of the project.

To Whom it May Concern,
it
The purpose of this letter is to fulfill'yhe second
requirement under section B. Filing Requirements of the Variance
-. request form.. This item 'requests written justification outlining
the reasons for the variance and why this variance is compatible
with the surrounding area.
This variance is being requested in conjunction
.. with tentative parcel map number 13693. Under the provisions
of the subdivision being requested the individuz.l lot size has
j
been exceeded in the case of both lots; however, the minimum
� average lot size is just barel y below the required level.
It is £ult that this variance would be compatible
with the surrounding area. A variance of this exact nature has
�- already been granted for other lots in the immediate area along
Cabrosa Place. We feel that the small deviation from the required
s;.ze would not adversely affect any of the home or land owners
in the area.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding
this application please feel free to contact me at (714) 987 -2868
between 8 A.M. and 5 P.M. Thank you for your time and consideration
in this matter.

SUBJECT: APnEAL OF DETERMINATION OF INCOMPLETENESS FOR CONDITIONAL
USE PERMIT 91 -01 - VICTORY CHAPEL. - An appeal of staff's
determination that the applicat #'on for Conditional Use
Permit 91 -01 is incomplete. This application is a request
tc locate a temporary m'Aular multi- purpose building of
912 square feet on the 'site of the existing 6,000 square
foot Victory Chanel, located on .74 acres within the
Industrial Park District (Subarea 7) of the Industrial
Area Specific Plan at 11837 Foothill Boulevard, west of
Rochester Avenue APN: 229 - 011 -1 Related File:
Conditional Use Permit 02 -06.

I. ABSTRACT- The purpose of this public hearing is to consider the
completeness of the above referenced application. The appellant
has appealed staff's decision of incompleteness based on the
provision requiring a,. master plan-for the development of permanent
buildings as specified in Section. 17.10.030.F.4 of the Development
Code, (see Exhibit "D "). Please refer to the appellant's letter
(Exiti.bit "A ") for their justification for not submitting the
required master plan.
II. BACxGROUND: Because of the need for additional area for church
related activities, the church moved a modular trailer on -site.
The Code Enforcement- Division contacted tha_;_hurch and advised
them that a Conditional Us- Permit was required. The installation
of the trailer violates both the Development Code and the
Conditional Use Permit for the church. Subsequently, the
appellant submitted an application for a temporary modular
building on January 8, 1991. Staff 'formally deterrvined :he
application to be incomplete on January 30i, 191)1, (Exhibit "b ")
and again on March 1, 1991 (Exhibit "C ").. Oti March 5, 1991, staff
received the appeal letter for staff's decision; of
incompleteness. Subsequently, start scheduled this item for
review of the Planning Commission at the next available public
heart ig.
III. ANALYSIS: In analyzing the appellant's request, staff notes that
two items have yet to ;ae submitted to the Planning Division from
the January 30, 1991, incompleteness letter:

and
2. A conceptual landscape plan. (For clarifications the appellant
is will+tg to submit a conceptual landscape plan; the appeal
request;•, ems 'from staff's request for the permanent building
master r,-,A only.)
State law requires he City to determine in writing whether a
project application il"'complete, not later than 30 calendar 11"
after'/ submittal, pursuant' to Government Code 114(1,tion 65143.
Fur #'vier, state law gram authority to the City to establish
submittal requirements for projects, which Faust- be listed and:mad_
available to applicants (GC Section 65940). In thirjcase, the
zoning regulation itself lists the requirement for '' "a master '1an
for development of permanent buildings aha).1 be submitted in
conjunction with such request (see Exhibit "D; The applicant
Aas the right to appeal the determination that
their application
is in- omplete ..
rie appellant does not challenge whether the master plan is a
submittal requirement, but rather, contends that the requirement
itsei ,,is not valid given their unique circumstances. The proper
mechanism for granting flexibility or relief from a 'zoning �+
requirement. is. :.he variance process -.
IV `_I.CO�RFtbaBONDENCE: This . item has been advertised as a public hearing
in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper and notices sent to
all property owners within a 300 foot radius c the project.;

uphold the determination that the project application is

SUBJECT: Petition to appeal planning division decision of
incompleteness concerning conditional use permit 91-oi.
To whom It May Concern: ,:i
Victory Chapel requests an appeal to the planning divisions
decision of incompletGness in regards to our application cor a
conditional use permit for the addition of a modular building at
our present location.
As stated in our initial application, the justification for this
modular involves several needs:
1) Room for children and youth ministries. we have outgrown our
present facilities and need additional spare to properly
facilitate our growing congregation.
2) The present building is very old and we are currently on a`
month to month lease with our landlord due to the fact that he
intends to demolish it. His plans are to build a business park on
this property in which we have negotiated to lease a new building
near our present location. Therefore it is� both- impractical and
impossible for us to bui -I'l a permanent addition, thus
necessitating the need for a temporary one:
the _fanning divisions decision of incompleteness is based uV,
our I.nability to provide a waster plan for a builkiina to repla .
the modular. we obviously cannot do this snce" the entire
property is slated for demolition and reconstruction by the
owner, thus predenting us from meeting the city's requirements
for the placing of temporary buildings.
we therefore respectfully request an exemption to City Co4mcil
Ordinance No. 211, such as the schools in our city currently
have. we are able and more,than willing to meet the requirements
for the setting up of & modular building, both safety and
appearance wise. )

I. ABSTRACT:
Staff is recommending denia' without prejudice of the project application l
due to the lack of complete information considered :.3sential for a proper
evaluation of the project,
II. BACKGROUND:
This projrzt was formally submitted on May 17, 1989, after being reviewed
as a prelimi:iary review in December of 1988 and February of 1989.
Following formal submittal the application was deemed incomplete on three
separate occasions, inust recently in August 1989. As a courtesy Po the
developer•, the project was reviewed by the Grading, 'technical Review, and
Design Review Committees in October of 1989 with the provision that the
project would be again reviewed by the committees once deemed complete.
The developer has been working with staff to resolve all compl etene' ss
items.
III. DISCUSSION;
State law requires that a subdivision application be acted on by the
approving agency, within specified time limits which begin when the
application has been accepted as complete. Although the application was
submitted on May 17, 1989, w;;ich t„ almost 2 years ago, it has not beer,
deemed complete by staff., This "completeness" determine tivn is contested

by the applicant and given the excessive amount of time since suNnittal,
the City Attorney has advised staff• to submit the appl i catitn-) to the
Plantring Commission for action.
The main item `not ;yet completed is the drainage report. This re�+rt is
necessary tc- determine the size and vocation of the required detention
basin for the
site and the surrounding area. The design of the retention
basin could have substantial effect upon the 'gout of the development,
the rel..ated park site, and the adjacent property. ,Secondly, the proposed
alignment of the storm drains to be
constructed with the project differ
substantially from those shown on the adopted City Master Plan 'for the
'?
area. It is essential that the evaluation of the realignment be
completed to determine the economic' and service impacts upon the total
area served by the'ttormr drain lines.
The latest comments on the project drainage report were returned to the
Developer's Engineer on June 11, 1990. Staff had a meeting with the
Developer and his Engineer on October 17, 199Di to discuss ea ne'r approach
to the basin design whif}a utilizes the area designated for a park site.
The developer submitted this request to the Park and Recreation
Commission which the Commission denied. Staff feels that completion of
this design
is essential prier to submitting the project to the Planning
Commission for action.
' In addition, the developer has been requested to acquire the of,-site
right- of�way necessary to provide infastructure for this project. Staff
has discussed the possibility of schedul i <g the project for an advisory
City Council hearing for possible future condemnation action to acquire
this right -of -way; however, the Developer has not requested! "that course
of action.
Staff sent a letter to the Developer on February 27, 1991, stating the
proje,.t would be scheduled for' a denial hearing unless 'a letter waiving
the time limits was provided. Staff met with the Developer and hi .
Attorney on March 28, 1991 to discuss the project, but }bey did not agree
to submit a al.fver of time limits. The developer takes issue with
several staff recommended conditions for the project, but those items are
not releverrt to this action.
IBc CORIZE:>PONDEECE:
This item has been advertised in The Inland Valley Daily Bulletin
newspaper as a public h,laring. The property ,s been poste an not ces
were sent to all property owners within 300 feet of the project site.

11. ANALYSIS-
A. General: The Industrial Area Specific Plan remits retail
sales in conjunction with Light wholesale, Storage, and
Distribution operations with the approval of a Conditional Use
Permit. The primary issues to be concerned with would be
compatibility of uses and traffic conflicts. Retail sales are
normally discouraged within the industrial area because the
uses typically create more traffic. Also more signage is
generally preferred than office and industrial uses. 'Other
forms of retail are permitte^; with Conditional Use Permits,
including Automotive Sales, Convenience Sales and Services,
and Food and ,Beverage Sales.
B. specific: The applicant is proposing to use approximately
4,000 square feet of his 17,000 square foot building for the
retail sale of shoes and accessories. The building primarily
serves as a warehouse and light distribution center for the
owner's two other stores which are located in the cities of
Walnut and Corona. The warehouse operates between 8 a.m. and
5 p.m., while the retail business, which is already in
operation, is open from 10'a..m. to 7 p.m. Deliveries are made
an average of twice r4r week. The building is located on its
own parcel and hao its own driveway and parking lot;
therefore, it does not appear that traffic or parking problems
I1 will result from the additional traffic which is typically
I; created by retail uses,
The Building and Safety and Fire Divisiona have conducted
inspections and determined that several modifications dealing
with fire separations and proper exiting are necessary in
order to meet the occupancy requirements for a retail use.
Prior to allowing the retail use, these modifications will be
required to be completed to the satisfaction of the Building
and Safety and Fire Divisions.
Three parking spaces are located in front of the entrance, one
of which is a handicapped space. The remainder of the parking
is located on the north side of the building is separated
s P
from the entrance by a below -grade truck loading ramp. A

small concrete path through the landscaping allows pedestrians
access from the northerly parking area to the entrance by way
of the loading area.
C. Property Maintenance: The building was constructed in 1980
and, in staff's . opinion, could use some maintenance.. When the
site was visited in March, several items were noted. Staff
recommends that the 'Planning Commission require the applicant
to correct the following items:
1. Storage of lumber and pipes on north side of building;
2. Painted signage on western windows;
3. Unpainted roll -up doox on north side of building;
I� 4. Access door should be painted to match building;
l
S. Pink neon paint crash poles at the building entrance;
6. Hand painted "Store Parking" directional sign;
7. Ducts on roof of building;
8. Peeling, flaking paint on the building walla.
A number of suggested conditions have been included with the
attached Resolution of Approval to address these issues.
D. Conclusion: Because of the large proportion of floor area
devoted to storage and the use of the building as a
distribution point for other stores, it appears that the
industrial area is an appropriate location for this type of
mixed use. If the technical And maintenance issues can be
resolved, staff has no aerioud 'concerns with the proposed land
use.
j E. Environmental` Assessment: Upon review of Part I of the
Initial Study and completion of Part II of the Environmental
Checklist, staff has found no significant impacts related to
the propsaed use.
III. FACTS FOR ! "70.jINGS: The Commission must make all of the following
findings in order to approve this application:
A. That the proposed use is in accord with the General Plan, the
objectives of the Development Code, and the purposes of the
Industrial Area Specific Plan Subarea in which the site is
located.

findings, conditional approval may be granted through adoption of
the attached Resolution. Howevar, staff would recommend that
approval of the Use Permit be deferred pending resolu# of the

AMENDMENT 91 -03 CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONCIA A request to
amend the Industrial Area Specific Plan by adding Swap

and their development criteria within the Specific Plan
area. Staff recommends issuance of Negative

for outdoor Swao Kee+ and Snd_ >_ Wholesale /Retail Commercial
within various subareas of the Induhtrial Area Specific Plan (ISP)
and associated development criteria.
II. BAiKGROUDID: In recent months, the Planning Division has been
approached by several companies interested in establishing swap
meet facilities within the City, Swap Meets are currently :listed
as a typical use under the "Extensive Impact Comwirci.al" category,'
which is only allowed within the Heavy Industriai -zone; 'Subarea 15
(See Attached Exhibit, "A "). In .addition to the lack of
definition of the term "swap meet," there were no specific
development criteria identified within the!ISP: On January 9,
1991, the Planning Commission reviewed and approved staff's
request to initiate a modification to the Industrial Area Specific
Plan to include provisions and ;standards for the "swap meet"
use. The Planning Commission also directed staff to include the
following information within the Amendment:
A. Clarify the definition of the swap meet use,
B. Identify other industrial subareas where the use could be
conditionally permitted.
C. Establish standards and regulations for the swap meet use.
The following report and proposed industrial Specific Plan
Amendment has been prepared for the Planning Commission's review.

IIL. ANALYSIS:
A. Swan Meet History: Traditionally, swap; meet facilities have,,,
oparatad outdoors by the grouping of a number of independent "
sellers of both new and used goods within drive -in theaters,
ball fields, and raceways li.e. Saugus swap Meet, and the Rose
Bowl). Such uses opr^,:_ted periodically„ on weekends or
seasonally, but primarily on set weekends if the facilities
were not in normal use. An their popularity has grown, so too
have swap meets evAlved, changing the character of "swap meet"
facilities. The latest trend of indoor swap meets or
"discount malls" has appeared in cities such as Carson, Los
Angelee, and Santa Ana. In most instances, these uses involve
"adaptive re -use" of industrial buildings.
B. Definition: The "Swap Meet" Use is currently listed under the
Extensive Impact Commercial use within the ISP. Extensive
Impact Commercial is defined es the following:,
"those whiey: ',ap ` ,produce a substantial iitipact .
upon the surrounding area. Usea typically
include but,are not limited to amusement p5sks,,
drive -in /iovie theaters, flea markets, outdoor
auction sales, or swa `meet activities..."
The inclusion- of swap meets, -flea markets, and outdoor
auctions together within the Neavy <Industrial subarea of the
City appears to be based on the traditional view of swap meets
as an: outdoor use characterized by temporary "portable" vendor
stalls that operate on weekends. However, staff's opinion is
that an expanded definition of such commercial acti+rity is
needed to address indoor operations, including those which may
be semi- permanent or permanent installations.' The following
new land use type definitions are recommended:;
swan Meet GOutdcoift: Activities typically
include, but are n6t limited to: the retail,
wholesale, discount'` sales,, or tradeI of new or
used goods within an outdoor area by multiple
vendors. Such activities may be operated year-
round on a temporary basis, -such as on weekends,
or may be a special ` <. v
y event.,, Uses typically
include, but arls not limited to: swap meets,
flea markets, and outdoor auctions.

Indoor olemale /Retail. Commerrial: Activities
typically include,, but are limited tm- retail,
wholesale, or`-ziticount sales. Thee tyccs of
l
buainesees exclusively involve multtple vend -,re
selling new goods in separate, permanent dinE.Gay
structures. Uses typically include, but are,not
limitWif to: discount outlets and indoor swap
meets.
`1
The first definition, Swan Meets (Outdoor), adds'; sses the
traditional. 'activities and characteristics of the use. The
second definition, Indoor Wholesale /Reta_il_- _iCommercial,
addresses the activities and demands: associated with the
emerging discount commercial activity of consumers. Both land
.�.
uses are similar in that they ;both attract a high
cor:entraticn;of people to the site and may generate similar
concerns regarding circulation, par "Ing, security, and
maintenance. It is important, however, to recognize the two
as distinct uses, whilR, establishing the same criteria for
both.
C. Location Recuirgoents: There are a number of customer
dynamics related to this use. Whether held indoors or
outdoors, such a use wi31 attract a high concentration of
pepple to the site based upon observations of existing
operations. A concern expressed by the Commission was
incompatibility with residential areas. The direction of the
Plznning Commission was to explore the location- of this type
of use within the 'General Industrial, Minimum Impact heavy
IN
Industrial,
Industrial, and heavy Industrial subareas within the Specific
The General Industrial-category provides for the widest
possible range of light and medium industrial type of.activity
including manufacturing,'fabr(ication, and office uses. The
Minimum Impact Heavy Industrial group is an area intended for
heavy industrial uses with minimal impacts to the'surrounding
area and includes a range o?"', activities from woodworking
facilities to heavy machine,1/shops. Finally, the Heavy
Industrial category is intended to accommodate the heaviest
indusfrrial uses.
swap Mast (outdoors: , Az- outdoor swap meet' is
likely to have a number of aesthetic concerns
related to general appearance, ,signer refuse, and
the display of products. Typically: these uses
cater to a more t6nsient vendor, such that
displayu and goods fare independently arranged.
Because of the phylAcal characteristics of an
outdoor swap meet, this use would be more

Industr' +1 and Heavy industrial areas to mitigate
any dignifi.cant ueathe:lc effect on the
surrounding area. Staff "recommends allowing
outdoor swap meets .in Subareas 9 and 15 through
the Conditional Use Permit process.
Indoor .Wholesaie /Retail Commercial- Because all
activities re?ated to this type of proposed use
wesld take place within an enclosed building,
aesthetic considerations are limited to signs and
property maintenance (i.e., trash). Such a use
could be appropriate within the General
industrial, Minimum Impact Heavy Industrial, and
Heavy Industrial areas of the industrial Area
Specific Plan. Staff recommends ^hat this use be
allowed in Subareas 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, and 15
through the Conditional Use Permit process.
D. Parkina Standard: Another concern expresseulby the Commission
re Ated to the issue.., of parking. , Staff surveyed Southern
California cities regarding the parking requirements for swap
meet uses. Staff received 'a variety of responses to the
survey. The most conservative parking standard requirements
were reported by Pomona, which requires 6 stalls per vendor,
"!
and Santa Ana, which requires 1 parking space per 100 square
feet. Los Angeles has the most liberal requirement, l parking
space per SOIL square feet. Municipalities such as Ontario and
the City of Loa Angeles maintained the typical commercial
requirement of l space per 200 or 250 square feet for the swap
meet use.
In formulating the parking standard, a number of key issues
were recognized. In cities with operating swap meets, the
largest complaint was the shortage of parking facilities. The
Orange County Indoor Swap Meet, located in the City of Santa
Ana, which maintains a par?zing:ratio of 1 space Fsr 100 square
feet, harj'si-,perienced numerous negative. !--pacts to surrounding
land usei as a result of the sbcr',age of xiarking facilities.
Loitering, litter, and vandali_w have also occurred in
adjoining land uses as a result`cf swap meet clientele parking
off- site.
The swap meet u3e is very different from a`General Commercial
or Regional Commercial use, which maintains a parking
requirement of 1 parking apace per 250 and 220 square feet,
respectively. Swap meats typically operate as _'),kends, bi-
monthly or monthly. Therefore, the parking demand is heavily
concentrated during specific tame periods. Even though this

the industr! area, which utilizes' fairly standard peak hours
of operation- u-- 14onday through Friday, 7;00 a.m. to S:00 p.m.,
a conservative parking requirement should be required to ,
ensure that negative impacts are mitigated to maintain the
aesthetics of surrounding businesses.
Both the Swap Meet (Outdoor) and the Indoor /Wholesale Retail'
Commercial uses should meet the same standards. Staff
proposes the following:
I. Indoor Wholesale /Retail Commercial and Swap Meet
(Outdoor) uses 'shall meet the parking requirement of 1
space per 150 square feet.
E. Additional Submittal P.ecauirements: - To ensure that surrounding,
land `uses are not negatively ,impacted, additional filing
requirements shall include a Site ja agement Plan and a
.Traffic Impact Study.
1. Site Management Plan: Issues such as security and
maintenance should be addressed by the applicant$ to it
ensure that adequate services are provided for clientele
and surrounding land uses. Items to be addressed wth?;n
the Management Plan are:
a. Trash collection and site maintenance
b. Security and safetX''control measures
C. Parking attendants and circulation directors
d. Graffiti removal %and building maintenance
L.. Personnel management
2. Traffic Imoacr`Study Because of the possible traffic
intensity related to the uses, the Engineering Division
recommends that a Traffic Impact Study should be
submitted to the City Engineer addressing the following
items:
a. Trip generation
b. Traffic volume distribution
C. Access analysis
d. Internal circulation
e. Mitigation measures, if required by the analysis,
shall be shown.

SUBJECT: ADDENmm To oomxm BOULEVARD (DESIGN SUPPLWCWT STAFF 'REPORT
(ITEMS 7,,. M, is, O, AND P)
i
Following preparation of the staff report, - additional comments were
received from a representative of a „rogerty owner affected by the
incorporation of streetscape and site design standards for the "Missing
Link ". The three areas of concern raised in the Yetter (attached) are
aimed at the Milliken activity center, specifically the development of
the aouth side of Foothill Boulevard at Milliken A,),enue (Subarea 7 of
the Industrial Specific Plan). The three areas mentioned are: 1)
modification to permitted and conditionally permitted uses within the
subarea; 2) allowance for tyro - ,story structures (up to 35 feet in
height) at the activity center setback line (25 feet from curb); and 3)
provisions for reduced parking setbacks at activity Center areas.>
In assessing the comments, staff provides the following information for
Planning Commission consideration;
1. Modifications to land uses within the subarea are beyond the scope
of the amendments. The amendments are intended to provide
consistent design standards for Foothill Boulevard and do not
address land use. if the property owner desires revisions to the
land use, he sb(inid file an application for an Industrial Specific
Plan Amendment. It should also be noted that several of the
proposed uses are already parmitted or conditionally permitted in
this subarea. They are identified by "P" or "C ", respectively.
2. The activity centers identified in the Foa`_hill Boulevard Specific
Plan do not allow two -story units at the front setback; two -story
units must be set back 50 feet from curb. Staff suggests, however,
that the Foothill /Milliken intersection may be the ,appropriate
location to create a more urban setting. As a result, the
Commission may wish to consider the use of two -story buildings at
the front setbacks. This still allows for uses, such as ground
floor resta,'rants or retail, that would promote pedestrian
activity, The extent and location of two -story elements should be
based on reviEw of specific proposals through the Development Review
process; however, the following guidelines would be recommended for
inclusion in the Design Supplement:

2.) Revise proposed building setback requirements to reflect the section below.
f This is consistent with developing a more vibrant pedestrian scene. A single story
limitation on bringing a structure forward will act to sib zificantly limit the
Pedestrian Activity Zone image. A single story limitation will have a tendency to
evolve into a "strip commercial" look A second story acts to keep thirzu e'heck
while at the same time allowing fora greater spatial variety.
Within the Pedestrian Activity Zone, l and 2 sto.,y buildings and 1 and 2
store' building.00rtions up to 35 feet in height can observe a 25' minimum

3.) Revise proposed parking setback requirements to show a 25' minimum with a 45'

I. BACKGROUND- On September 16, 1987, the City Council approved the
Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan (FBSP). The FBSP was enacted to
provide a unifi�ld development scheme for the Foothill Boulevard
Corridor through the community. A significant element of this
plan is the special streetscape desigl provisions which tie
together the visual aspects of this major commercial roadway. The
portion of Foothill Boulevard between Deer Creek Channel and the
I -15 Freeway was not part of the Specific Plan study, and
therefore, its provisions do not apply to the development of that
"Missing Link por`:ion of the corridor. At the time of FBSP
approval, the Planning Comm3,esion aiid. City Council expressed the
desire to apply the e::reetocape desijln guidelines of the Plan to
the missing section.
On April 27, 1988, the Planning Commission reviewed draft
regu7 tions for the missing link. At that time, the Commission
rec, mended that the Rochester Avenue /Foothill Boulevard
in} irsection be included as an "Activity Center. This
m,iification has been incorporated into the Foothill Boulevard
Design Supplement (see Exhibit "A ").
II. FRAMEWORK: The implementation of the Foothill Boulevard Design
Supplement is proposed as an amendment to tb "e Term Vista and
Victoria Community Plans (TVCP and VCP, respectively), the
Industrial Specific Plan (ISP), the Development District Map
(DDA), and the Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan (FBSP). The TVCP,
VCP, and ISP amendments will create an addendum to the existing
design guidelines and development standards for each plan. The
DDA and FBSP amendments will remove the northeast corner of
Rochester Avenue and Foothill Boulevard from the Gene,�l City
zoning designation of "op" (Office Processional) and wilt- include
it within subarea 4 of the PBSP within an "office" Cesignation.
The amendments to the respective plans, as proposed, will not
alter the uses that are permitted or'condirionally permitted under
the current regulations. Rather, the Foothill Boulevard Design
Supplement contains the design standards that staff believes are
essential in maintaining the flow and character of Foothill
Boulevard through the City. A brief summary of the da'sign
supplement is as follows:
III. ACTIVITY CENTERS: Activity centers are points of interest located
at major intersections along the Foothill corridor. They are to
provide individual identity by concentrating commercial and other
activitieu at specified key locations. These activity centers are
generally more urban in nature than the rest of the boulevard with
buildings closer to the street and a greater emphasis on building
design. The current FBSP calls for these "activity centers" to be
located at the following locations:

DDA 91-01 - CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA
April 24, 1991
Page 3
Foothill at Bear Gulch
Foothill at Vineyard Avenue
Foothill at ArchikAld Avenue
Foothill at Etiwaiida Avenue
The proposed "missing link" amendments would add activity centers
in the following locations:
Foothill at Milliken Avenue
Foothill at Rochester Avenue
Foothill at Haven Avenue
These activity centers are
,proposed to be developed consistent
with the PBSP regulations. The activity centers provide for a
pedestrian scale for all buildings while allowing mid-rise
levelopment as a backdrop. The main difference in the activity
centers will be the architectural style proposed:
A. Foothill at Milliken - The Milliken intersection considers a
contemporary architectural style as is presently demonstrated
on the south side Of Foothill Boulevard. Elements
anticipated to be used include, but are not 13mited to, flat
roof toper smooth and uniform wall suzfacp'�, and large
expanses of glass.
B. Foothill at Rochester _ The architectural style propcsed at
the Rochester intersection will be eclectic in nature
-ktilU ing such elements as low, long buildings, covered
Porches, stucco/plaster walls, arches, and clay tile roofs.
C. Foothill at Haven - Because of its prominence in the "heart"
of the City, the Foothill/Haven Intersection is deserving of
an activity center, designation. Howevert because three of
the four corners are developed, the activity center
improvements will be limited to the area withi ' �j the public
right-of-way. This application will permit the intersection
to exhibit consistent features of the FBSP including enriched
street paving, enriched sidewalk treatment, and special
street furniture. The new buildings will be set back from
the street an has been done with the developed corners and as
is identified in the applicable community or specific plan.
IV. SUBURBAN PARKWAY - The properties located outside of the Activity
Centers will follow the PBSP suburban parkway standards. , These
areas link the activity centers with _ less formal street,,scape
design to include meandering/undulating sidewalks and J,,ifbrmal
landscaping. Buildings in these areas have deeper setbacks and
are often separated from tile street by landscaped parking areas.

Owl
The suburban parkway standards evolved through similar design
concepts created for the TVCP, VCP, and ISP, thereby ensuring
continuity along Foothill Boulevard.
V. PROPERTY OWNER RESPONSE: Prior to scheduling this item for public
hearing, staff distributed cop ;;es of a "draft" design supplement
to several of the ,affected property owners along Foothill
Boulevard. Staff has received comments from one of the land
owners, Lewis Homes, expressing their concerns about
implementation of the guidelines (see Exhibit "B "). After having
reviewed the various comments, 'staff believes that the two main
differences between the design supplement and the Lewis Homes'
direction center around the architecture proposed and the concept
of "activity centers." While the Commission may wish to discuss
the type of architecture that should be provided at each activity
center, staff feels it is important to maintain a consistent themf,
at the intersection or "node."
Staff feels that thee: is sufficient flexibility in the
architectural guidelines to allow developers to adapt /respond to
changes in market conditions. In addition, staff suggests that
the creation of these activity centers will provide developers
with mor, flexibility in site planning by allowing buildings to be
pulled closer to the street freeing up ,areas internal to the site.
Activity centers will "tie" the visual 'aspects of Foothill
Boulevard together from one end of the City to the other through
the repetition of landscape, hardscape, street furniture, and
building setbacks. Also, the centers serve as focal points to
draw pedestrians who may then venture into a particular project
through connections to plazas, pathways, buildings, or other
features.
VI- ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT: In reviewing the environmental issues
connected with the proposed planned community and specific plan
amendments, staff notes that the amendments will provide design
standards to tie together the Foothill Boulevard corridor. There
are no changes being proposed to the land uses that are different
from those currently permitted. In that these uses were
previously addressed in the Environmental Impact Reports prepared
for the respective community or specific plans, staff has
determined that the amendments will not have a significant effect
on the environment. Staff recommends that the Planning Commission
issue a Negative Declaration.
VLI. FACTS FOR FINDINGS: The amendments will provide for the
development of comprehensively planned urban communities that are
superior to the development otherwise allowable under alternative
regulations. The amendments will provide for development of the
Planned communities and specific plans in a manner which is
consistent with the Genera- Plan and which relates to element and

growth managenent policies of the City. The amendments will
provide for the construction, improvement, and extension of
transportation facilities, public utilities, and public services
required within: the planned communities, In addition, the
-amendments will 'hot be detrimental to the public health or safety
or cause nuisances or significant adverse environmental impacts.
1, %III. CORRESPONDENCE; These items have been advertised as a public
hearing in the inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, and notices
were sent to all property owners within 300 feet of the
Development District and Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan
Amendment boundaries.

review the proposed design supplcnnent and recommend approval of

WHI PPi.ERnv:MT A zr%g f-?
On September 16, 1987. the City Council approved the Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan (FBSP), `fhe
FBSP was enacted to provide-. unified development scheme for the Foothill Boulevard corridor through the
community. Of prime importance to the FBSP are thr 'special streetscape des- ovisions which "tie.,
together the visual aspects of this cjmmercici roadway:

Figure I - Missing Link Area
The portion of Foothill Boulevard between Haven Avenue and the Interstate 15 Freeway (1 -15) was
not a part of the specific plan study; therefor, its provisions did not apply to the development of this "miss-
ing link." At the time of FBSP approval, the City Council and Planning, 'ommiss on expressed a desire to
include significant design provisions of the plan in the development of the "missiag, link." This amendment
to the Terra Vi ata Community Plan (TVCP), the Victoria Community VU), and the Industrial Area
Specific P13n (ISP) is proposed t-T include specific streetsmpe design pmvuions of the FBSP in the develop-
ment of &e properties Foothill Boulevard.
WHERE DUES IT APPLY?
The following provisions ;rill apply to all properties bordering Foothill Boulevzrd within the T ICP,
VCP, and ISP. This ,amendment augment- 6e development regulations and standards of the TVCP, Vf Zp, and
ISP. R%en an issue, condition, or situation occurs which is not covered or provided for in this amen4•nent or
} provi :ons of the TVCP, VCP, or ISP, the regulations of the Development Code of the City of Ranche
Cucamonga that are most applicable tc tie issue, condition, or situation shall apply.

11. COMMUNITY DESIGN CONCEPT
The Foothill Boulevard Design Supplement is intended to create a dynamic concourse thati,: attrac-
We and of nigh qu! *ly with a unifying community design image reflective of the community heritage and
identity, providing an economically viable setting for a balanced commerc.
mixture of A and residential uses
with safe, efficient circulation and access.:
A.
Create a community image that expresses and enhances the unique character and identity of Rai -cho
Cucamonga.
B. OBJECTIVES:
Develop a streetscape system which - Pinforces the exisiingsuburban parkways as vehicular areas
and designates major street intersections as pedestrian activity center nodes throughor t the corridor.
1
Promote compatible building elevations which provide a transition at pedest, An areas to taller
elevations while protecting adjoining residential conditions.
Promote contemporary landscape treatments throughout the corridor, particularly those that are low
maintenance, drought tolerant, and wind resistant' within intense urban conditions.
WM
MW
Provide for the elimination of visually objectionable views, such as outdoor storage and loading
areas, through the, use of design guidelines.
C. ROL
Develop consistent streetscape and architectural palettes which are sensitive to creating a "heritage"
statement for Foothill Boulevard.
Require compliance with community design guidelines in plans for new development and expansion
or redevelopnr -nt of existing development and make community design a major consideration in site phm
rev?ew and approval.
Utilize landscape materials which are clean, safe, wind resistant, and. latively low maintenance.
Formal forms and configurations should be utilized at activity center nodes while less formal configurations
should be utilized throughout the parkway links between nodes.
Designate special landscape and architectural features at major intersections. Combine themat; *.
plantings with contemporary architectural statements designed to promoter, distinctive character for the
t ,
activity centers. 41=ges in paving materials, lighting, signing, and siting of adjacent structures hould occur
rk
at major intersections to enhance their distinctiveness.

A. AGl'F�p�T1-.7 ¢$S:
Activity centers are points of intersection at major streets along the Foothill Boulevard corridor. As
such, they are points of concentrated activity which give identity to the areas in which they are located. The
activity centers are located contiguous to the Foothill Boulevard corridor as indicated in Figure 2.

fi<:cause three comer s of the Haven Avc. ti o intersection are completed, the development provisions
of the activity center are limited to those streetscape and landscape improvements within the public ight -of-
way. Therefore, many of the following standards apply only to the Milliken.Nvenue and Rochester Avenue
activity centers
1. Streetscape:
a. All building orientations will relate to the Foothill Boulevard frontage. The building
setback areas will be enriched pedestrian zones with special hardscape materials; formal landscape arrange-
ments, and pedestrian level lighting.

1. 2' Site Planning:
a. At activity center, buildings shall be. placed at or adjacent to the front setback line to
create a more appealing, active streetscape. Front yard areas of parkfnglots dominating the streetscene are
specl6callyprohibited (Milliken & Rochester).
b. Multi-story buildings dlall be designed to relate tc the pedestrian level. Ail ground
story facades shall be designed to relate to the numan scale. This can be accomp?; `led through the breaking
of facades into bays and the signage brought down in size and location. Further, it is reduction inn -tale can be
established through the use of pedestrian arcades and awnings which add horizontal articulation to the
facades (Milliken & Rochester only).
C. Buildings shall be designed to be visually connected in order to eliminate a fragmented '
strip commercial appearance (Milliken & Rochester anly).
d. Architecture and outdoor spaces along Foothill Boulevard shall be integrally desig,S,ed
and oriented toward the pedestrian experience. The experience should be visually diverse and stimulating
and should include activities that create _tense of variety and interest (Milliken & Rochester only).
e. Stru Iure s shall be designed and located to facilitate public.access across sites where
important pedestrian cor:.ections occur.
f. Building entrances shall be oriented towards Foothill Boulevard as much as possible.
3. Architectural Concept:
a. In an effort to promote a richness of architectural cha,-acter, a diversity of architectural
styles are allowed within tha Foothill Boulevard corridor rather th,' i one specific style. Within the individual
activity centers, the architectural style shall be consistent to provide continuity of design at intersection.
b. Milliken Activity Center - A contemporary architectural style is to be followed at the
Milliken Activity Center. This style is characterized by use of flat roof tops, smooth and uniform wall sur-
faces, and large expanses of windows. Use of color panels and enhanced window and entry detailing is also
encouraged.
C. Rochester Activity Center - An eclectic architectural style is to be followed at the
Roch; ;ter ?activity Center. Characteristics of this style include low, long buildings with covered porches;
arches supported t7y piers; stucco /plaster walls; and day tile roof coverings.
d. du►: i re story buildings located near the front setl•,ack line should euh ibit a "step -
back` of "stair- stepped" form at the lower levels facing Foothill Boulevard, Milliken Avenue, and Rochester.

L Site Planning:
a. Buildings shall W sited to create new pedestrian spaces that complement and expand
the existing pedestrian rights -of -way along Foothill Boulevard. This can be accomplished by creating plaza:t
and allowing wider sidewalks on the boulevard.
b. Euildings shall be designed and placed to minimize pedestrian /ve _`cular conflicts and
driveways and service areas shall be located to avoid interfering with the flow of boulevard pedestrian
movements.
public view. C. Auto related facilities (i.e. working bays, storage, etc.) shall be oriented /screened from
2. Parking La s:
a. Whenever possible, entries shall be located on side streets in order to minimize pedes-
trian /vehicular conflicts. When this is not possible, the Foothill Boulevard site entry shall be designed with
appropriately patterned concrete or pavers (behind the public right of -way) to differentiate it from the
sidewalks.
l;. Parking access points, - whether located on Foothill Boulevard or side sueets,.shalh be
located as far from street intersectiors as possible.
C. Parking areas shall be designed so that pedestrians walk parallel to moving vehicles
and minimize the need for the pedestn �n to cross parking aisles.
d. Individual project p srldng areas shall be linked with on -site driveways which are
clearly identified and easily recognized as connectors. New development projects shall delineate on all plans
where vehicular connections to adjacent properties are located. The applicant must also demonstrate provi-
sions for access easements for such vehicular movements to adjacent properties consistent with approved
master plans.
e. As a condition of approval, the applicant may be required to combine parking facilities
to serve more than one individual project.
f. Within suburban parkways, parking areas shall be designed in a manner which link
the building to'the street sidewalk system as an extension of the pedestrian environment. This can be accom-
plished by using design featurm such as walkwayswith enhanced paving, trellis structures, and /or land-
scape treatments
a. Landscap Design:
a. All poles, street furniture, light standards, and similar hardware within 10 feet of the
public right -of -way shall be painted a color chosen as the Foothill Corrodor Theme Color. Sign faces may
vary and match related architecture.
b. Establish a colorful landscape edge at the b ke of buildings. Asphaltedges at the base
of structures are prohibited. Plant materials in containers are appropriate.
C. Landscaping should result in a low profits image '(i e. use of blade gr..ss in lawn areas,
canopy trees in parking areas, hedges and low walls to screen service areas.

d. Internal pedestria , circulation, linking office complexes with neighboring commer-
cial or office developments, s ,Duld be lW &, d close to buildings and be partially covered.
e. Planting clusters should assume a non- uniform arrangement. The diversity of
massing types should be great enough to provide interest but kept to a level which evokes a relaxed, natural
feeling to the ob_erver.
f. Water conserving plantings and irrigation shall be used in all landscaped area;.
(Refer to City Ordinance No. 411- Xeriscape.)
g. Add large (24 -inch to 36 inch box) canopy trees to existing landscaping consistent
with City standards.
4. Streetscape Lighting;
a. It is the intent of strmtscape lighting to add a consistent, planned lookfor Foothill
Boulevard during day and evening hours. Lighting can have a dramatic effect on the quality of the
stieetscape design
b. All lighting fixtures in the public right -of -way shall be consistent and approved by
the City Engineer following recommendations of the Planning Commission. Materials shall be consistent and
in keeping with the desired theme. Lunimanes, poles, and supporting hardware shall be consistent.
C. All development areas outside the public rightDof -way shall use high pressure
sodium lighting. All direct light rays shall be confined to the limits of the building site.

IV. CIRCULATION IMPR VEIWENTS
A. QGnter Median EM.EA Based upon traffcar -lyses, a contrRuous 14 -foot wide raised
landscaped median shall be provided on Foothill Boulevard'. The median can provide beneats necessary to
accommodate increased development and traffic demand in the following areas;
® Increased vehicular capacity
® Increased vehicrar /pedestrian sa&7
® Increased vehicular mobility
® Increased vehicular level of service
Median breaks shall occur only at major signalized intersections as determined by the City Enf, ineer.
Alternate median breaks may be considered subject to a detailed traffic safety anal} .us and subject to the
review and approval of the City Engineer.
B. Median DeSlt9n - The 14 -foot wide median shall be designed to provide access control and a
unifying landscape stater*: n*. The median will feature two basic types of panting. Accent tree planting
(Crape myrtle), underplanted with a low evergreen groundcover, will be provided at median noses. Ever-
green trees (Rhos lancea), underplanted with shrubs and groundcover, will be planted throughout the
balance of the median. (See Figure 8.)

RE: Proposed Foothill Specific Elan
Rancho Cucamonga, California
Ask
Dear Scott:
Thank you for sending me a draft copy of the proposed Foothill
specific Plan, covering Rancho Cueswonga's "Missing Link," area
between Haven Avenue and Rochester:- ,;A,ter reviewing your material
internally I would like to offer the-xollowing comments.
Asok
We believe that Terra Vista should remain excluded from the
Foothill specific Plan and see no reason to amend the existing
Terra Vista Community Plan. Instead, we think that both Lewis
Homes and the City of Rancho Cucamonga would be better served if we
worked together to expand on the existing "Terra Vista Landscape
Desigp Guidelines ".
These guidelines were submitted for staff review in iioVember of
1990. They could be expanded to 'include architectural guidelines
assuring a consistency in site and building design, as well as
landscape design along our portion of Foothill. Boulevard. We
believe that such separate design guidelines would be the
appropriate vehicle to accomplish your goals.
The aft plan which you sent appears to be overly restrictive in
it
,eerningly arbitrary choice of plant materials and limitation of
s, eetscape architectural styles. The eAclosed copy of the "Terra
Vista Landscape Design Guidelines,* represents our attempt to
respond to the need for a consistent approach to landscape design
along our portion of Foothill Boulevard. We believe this will be of
help in standardizing the landscape concepts along all of the
j
Foothill corridor, and feel that expansion of this document to
}
cover site and building design is the Solution which should be
employed to unify this frontage.
Mr. Scott Murphy
April 2, 1991
Page Two
As we are all aware, successful, commercial development is market
drivzn. As a result we need the ability to respond to the 'leeds'of
major tenants, whether, office or retail, and thus can not limit '
ourselves to any one architectural style that could conceivably put
us (and the City) at a competitive disadvantage. We do recognize
that a lack of contr]l� can yield a chaotic street- scape, and for
that reason we work within the design intent of the current Terra
Vista Community P1aw, a plan which we have jointly developed with
the Planning Commission and staff, so as to develop projects which
we ,an all be proud o€ -,
Our design goal will always be to _strers t: meless design themes. I in
that con;:ext we have the following peelisW nary observations:
I:. Activity centers are fine but should occur naturally and
not be forced. If Foothill Boulevard is not
predominantly pedestrian, who will use the "Activity
Ceiite. s'*? Foothill is' „simply too wide and too "highway-
like” to attract intimate, pedestrian activity.
Pedestrians are mt going tc sit outside in the hot sun
on the north side,_ >f Foothill (which faces into the -sun)
2. Building :orientation needs to b�)multi- sided, not only
addressing Foothill front;4ge. Buildings stpuld vary in
size both width and height. Some "bu' � c
I, 9 a.13n�s s.io`i.id
ralate to the pedestrian by stepping .A';k while others
L should not step back, in order to give h-sense of scale.
3. Buildings should be separated by.'open specde containing
parking areas tirhich give a visual depth to the ptreet
i
scene..
4. The reputation and track record of tip Lewis Companies
(as evidenced by numerous award = winning designs) support
our conclusipli_ that architectural styles should ice left
to th'a Developer and his design team, j working in
conjunction with the <'esign Review Committee. Unifying
elements, sliclh as door height, color, landscape,
material selection and scale, will provide the
boulevard experience.
Mr. Scott Murphy
Apr;U 2, 1991
Page Three
We should work closely together to balance the needs of` the
community with the economic rea-iities of the„ development business.'
If we work as a team Z °'relieve that W*� c211 sta eamline the
development process and. work with fir the des bgn revi4i,w process as
professionals offerirg creative solutions "to, the city's overall
criteria within the contsxt of the existing Te:ra Vista Community
Plan.
Please let me kncw when we can - get trgether_ to discuss these
issues. -

STAFF REPORT
DATE: April 24, 1991
TO; Chairman and Members of `_he Planning Commission rj
FROM: Brad Buller, City Planner
BY: Scott Murphy, Associate Planner
SUBJECT: ADDENDUM TO FOOTHILL BOW W DESIGN SUPPLEMENT STAFF REPORT
(ITEMS L, M, H, O. AND P)
Following preparation of the staff report, additional comments were
received from a representative of a property owner affected by the
incorpor&..tion of streetscape and;, site design standards for the "Missing
Link ". The three areas of concern raised in the letter (attached) are
aimed at the Milliken activity center, specifically the development of
the south side of Foothill Boulevard at Milliken Avenue (Subarea 7 of
the Industrial Sp(;cific Plan). The three areas mentioned are: 1)
modification to permitted and conditionally permitted uses within the
subarea; 2) allowance for two -story structures (up to 35 -feet in
height) at the activity center setback line (25 feet from curb); and 3)
provisions for reduced parking:=ntbacks at activity center areas.
in assessing the comments, staff provides the following information for
Planning Commission consideration:
1. Modifications to land uses within the subarea are beyond the scope
of the amendments. The amendments are intended to arovide
consistent design standards for Foothill Boulevard and do not
address land use. If the property owner desires revisions to the
land use, he, should file an application for an Indastrial Specific
Plan Amendment. It should also be noted that" several of t�;e 'J
proposed uses are alr_ady permitted or conditionally permitted ',n
this subarea. They are identified by "P" or "C ", respectively.
2. The activity centers identified in the Foothill Boulevard Specih`ic
Plan do not allow two -story units at the front setback two -story
units must be set back 50 feet from curb. Staff suggest ;f however,
that the Foothill /Milliken intersection may be the
location to create a more urban setting. As a ;jresult, the
Commission may wish to consider the use of two - story/ buildings at
the front • setbacks. This still allows for uses, such as ground
flocr restaurants or retail, that would promote pedestrian
activity. The extent and location of two -story elements should be
based 'cn` review of specific proposals through the Development Review
process; however, the following guidelines would be iecommer_dect for
inclusion in the Design Supplement:

d. Buildings should be oriented to place
retail.' stores., restaurants,. services, .
limited retail uses (as permitted by the U
industrial Specific Plan), and other high
'intensity pedestrian uses `on the ground
levels of all buildings within activity
centers fronting major streets, including
.parking structures.
3. Allowing parking areas within the activity center to be pulled
closer to the street is inconsistent with the intent of the activity
center concept.- Staff does not feel it is appropriate to reduce the
building and parkit;j setbacks within the activity center.

AMENDMENT TO UNIFORM SIGN PROGRAM FOR RANCHO SAN ANTOI..LO
MEDICAL CENTER - An appeal of staff's decision to C Sny as
sign program amendment, located at the southeast corner of
Milliken and Chu ch Street - APH: 227- 771 -01.
i
I. ABSTRACT: The applicant, Rancho -San Antonio Medical Center
( RSAMC), is appealing the decision of Planning staff which denied
an amendment to the RSAMC Uniform_.-Ssgn Program to allow a fourth
sign for the business. (see Exhibit "E").
II. BACKGROUND: The RSAMC is an ambulatory health care facility. As
with any hospital, there are a number of services provided,
including providing emergency walk -in care, medical offices, and a
pharmacy. Phase I is existing with approximately 83,000 square
feet. Phase II will add an additional 40,000 square feet.
The Uniform Sign Program was approved in November 1989. The
program was originally approved with a monument sign at each of
the two driveway entrances, 4 or_ -site signs ilentifs:ng building
entrances, and 14 directional c #gns (See Exhibii'. "A "). In October
1990, the sign program was amended tz,%.add a wai ^, sign identifying
FSAMC on the south elevation (See Ex iibit "B "). on February 20,
-391, the applicant submitted an ame,�dmtmt to the sign program for
a wall sign on the west elevation itlent fying "Uryent,.',Q — ", the
emergency walk -in care (See Exhibit "C "). Following a review,
Planning staff denied the request to amend the Uniform Sign
Program on February 26, 1991 (see Exhibit "D ").
ANALYSIS: Within commercial and office areas, the Ranch-•.
Cucamonga Sign Ordinance establishes two different sets of sign
regulations for: 1) "businesses not within shopping centers,
including single .tenant: - -office buildings$" and 2) "multiple
professional tenants more; than three" (see Exhibits "G" and
"H "). Staff conside,s the Rancho San Antonio Medical Center to be
a jingle tenant facility. For single tenant businesses, the Sign
- 1rdinance allows a combination of monument and wall sign up to 3
Tittximum. Further, the Sig ;Ordinance is intended to provide for
,iness identificaticn am _iscourages the listing of products Or

services. Si,7e the b`.,,ilness has several related operations.' on-
_.
site, the Uniform Sign Prograw allowed for four additional on -site
signs identifying the proper entrances. In addition, 14
directional signs were approved on -site, 10 specifically to direct
customers to the Urgent Care entrance.
The appellant acknowledges that their are a single business with
multiple services and th -ot their request exceeds the allowable
number of signs for a single tenant. The appellant's letter
requests a "variance to the sign ordinance" because- they "are a
unique business with unique requirements." However, the applicant ._
never filed a variance application; hence, their request can only
be considered as an appeal tonight. The appellant feels that
their Urgent Care service, needs more visibility from Milliken
Avenue. The sign compan ' r -- eselting RSAMC states that the
additional wall sign is :A.,1ed because patients are having
difficulty finding the facil'ty (see Exhibit C -1).
Consistent with the intent ot",the Sign Ordinance, this Uniform
Sign Program allows a maximum ''t:,� three signs to identify the
business and draw people onto:;; the' ,site. once the custiomer is
wltl;in the site, further on -site signs direct the person to their
destination.
5.aff contands that the difficulty is not in finding a 4 -story
'r medical center located at a Major intersection: rather, the
problem seems to be directing patientsrnce they are on -cite. One
option would be to modify the existing 10 directional signs for
better visibility. These signs could be improved by doubling the
lettering height from 3 inches to 6 inches, which -iuld also
' -` double the distance from which they can be read. - Also, the
internationally recognizable "red cross" first -aid symbol could be
employed to give greater recognition. The directional sign
located at the end of thn Milliken Avenue entrance throat could be
moved or repeated on the south side of the driveway to improve
visibility for motorists.
CORNER MONUMENT SIGN: The appellant's letter also requests
consideration to install a third monument sign reading "Rancho San
Antonio Medical Center" with a loga',.,on the curved wall at the
corner of Milliken and Church.' --ftsff notes that this issue
constitutes a modification to their original request to ch&age the
Unform Sign Program for the Urgent Care signs. Therefore, this
issue cannot be considered ten3.ght.

V. RECOMMENDATION: if the Planning Commission determines that this
is a single tenant business under the Sign Ordinance, then the
applicant should be directed to apply for a °variance to allpw the :>
prq)erly noticed and public hearing. However, if the Planning ;
Commission, determines that the Rancho San Antonio Medical Center
should be classified as A multiple prokessional tenant facility,
then the t`,ommission should review and consider the marits of the
appeal tonight. Should this be your direction, the Commission may
approve, Approvs with modifications, dr deixy the appeah through

Dear Mr. Eaton:
The Planning Division has receivc-d your request to amend -the Uniform Sign�, rograin
for the Rancho San Antonio Medical Center, located at tha,, southeast co',,�er of
MilliVen Avenue ano Church Strpet. Specifically, you have requested the a�,Aition
of one wall sign for the Urgent Care facility of the Rancho San Antonio Met.,ical
Center.
Your request has been denied based upon the following findings:
1. The Rancho San Antonio Medical Center is defined as one
business and is entitled to a maximum of three signs
which include a combination of monument and wall
signs. Currently, the site has one wall and two
Awk
monument signs. The introduction of an��additional sign
would exceed the maximum of three signs.�
2. Urgent Care is well ident-Ifiet; with existing�� on-site
signage. They are identified on both monument signs and
have a sign in the north parking 1-_�t. The site also
contains ten directional signs identifying Urgent Care.
3. The Sign Ordinance provides for business identification
and discourages the listing of products or services.
Tne use of terms such as "urgent care," "pharmacy," and
"family practice" goes beyond this intent.
This decision is final unless appealed in writing to the Secretary of the Planning
Commissior within ten calendar days from tha date of this–Iletter. Any appeal
shall be in writing, together with the $62 appeal fee, and shall state the reasons
for the appeal.
Sincerely,

Flancho San Antonio MP.dicat C,gn-t -r
Dear Buller:
We recognize that Rauch: Cucamonga has established .guidelines for
signage in the cowunity, and that our recent request for an Urgent
Care sign exceeds the 1-;nits. However, we are in a unique business
with unique requirements. '1
sa" A7tonic. ^-oll6unity Hospital )as been Rancho 'Cucwon9a,`t choice for
l medical care fore many years. ceci;use of our interest in the Rancho,
Cucamonga community, we built111ancho..San Antopio Medic,a? Center to meet
the , coiiiv-alty's needs. Of primary.. concerti is the availability of
TV quality Medical care to our community. it is vitally important. that
Rancho San Antonio Medical Center and ,its services be easily
identified, especially when urgent medical care is .needed.
In addressing the Urgent t=are sign, the need is evident; the Urgent
Care facility needs more visibility from Milliken Avenue. At, a
distance of 500 feet the props,ed Zl inch letters are the appropriate
height for readability. Though Urgent Care is on the monument signs
next to the entrance driveways, the copy height is 'oniy 3 inches tall
and 4 feet from the ground, which is difficult to read while driving hsI
..
the. facility.
In addition_ we also request permission to-install one elevation of
externally illuminated' letters reading "Rancho San Antonio Medical
Center" with ,a logo, to the curved wale on the, corner of Milliken
Avenue and Church Street facing northwest (See_Enctosed Sketch). The: -`
sign will not be visible from the other sign locations, and is
attractively placed on the wall. It will be the only visible
identification from the intersection. of Milliken' Avenue and Church �
Street.

OPQSED TEXT AMENDMENT_ TO THE ETIWANDA SPECIFIC PLAN TO
Ai OW CHILD CARE /Se`HOOL FACILITIES WITHIN WRIGHBORHOOD
COMMERCIAL DISTRICTS
I. BACKGROUhC: On March 20, 1991, the Planning Department received .
the attached letter from Anita Trevino- MaZeal,..,an associate c the
Land -Plan Design Group (Exhibit A). The',letter makes two
requests. The first request - is the subjer-1 of this staff
report: a ml -sire for the PJ- Winning 'Commission to consider a
praposed Text Amendment to the Etiwanda Specific Plan. The Text
Amendment would allow child care /school facilities as a
conditionAlly permissible use within a Neighborhood Commercial
Distr -t in the Etiwanda specific Pian area.
The second request of cts subject letter concerna the interest on
the part of the applicant for the Commission to r=:-ae a reading as
to the acceptance of a Land Use Amendinen!- 'to expand the
approximately 4 acres of currently zoned cdiwn vial property
the southeast earner of 24th ' St diet ar; East Averue to
approximately 14 acies total. Staff has -advised the project
proponent, both verbally and in writing (letter dated Januar,' 31,
1991, Exhibit B) that it is City ,policy when considering a request
for a Land Use Amendment that an %pplic.Ation and appropriate
en- ironmental and planning documentation be submitted before the
Commission will consider the request.
II. ANALYSIS: As previovly stated in staff's letter dated
January 31, 1991, if tF'.. Pl.annjnq Commission agrees .z -i hear the
request for a textual amendment to the plaa, than a formal
application must be submitted along with the appropriate
application fees. This application would be required to be
treated separately from any ether application3. For example, the
application for a Land Use Amendment previously indicated wokild
require both a General Plan Amendment and a a'pacific Plan
Amendment applications. Both the Text Amendment application and
the Land Use Amendment applications wovld" legally have to be
processed and treated separately. This is because the textual
amendment would have to be considered in the light of all
1'TER R

similarly zoned properties and wheth, the allowance of child caxe
facilities within thst particular zone, subjet >t to a Condx.{.ional
Us- Permit, would be appropriate for all such zoned properties.
Additioually, recent changes in State law would require the
not j ficW on of gall similarly zoned properties within then- Specific -s%
Plan ;as well as those properties within 300 feet.
It should be noted that the "Community Hub" map referenced in He.
Trevino- McZeal's letter is out of date and varies significantly
with the moat. recent land use considerations for this area.
III. RECOHMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission,
-after considering all the input on the requests for tho Text
Amendment, initiate the application through minute action, subjec! ; t
to the project- propogsntz!s payment of all appropriate application
fees.

Re: Proposed Text Amendment to the Etiwanda Specific Plan lob No.: ESP 9025
Dear Brad:
The following is to first request the Planning Commission considat-a ?ropeszd text amendirvmt to
the Htiwanda Specific Plan and second, request the Commission P-1ve direction clarifying the intent
of the land use designation for approximately 14 acres located at the soutlieast comer of 24th Street
and East Avenue. Please reference the attached letter of January 31, 1991 fro Larry Henderson
t. Aileen Brown and the Community Hub Master Plan ixh1_1 prepmrd by Larid Plan Design
Grcup.
The text amendment would allow child cart f school facilities as a conditionally permissable use
within a Neigliborhood Commercial (NC) disaict. This proposed amendment conforms to tb -,
objectives and policies of the Etiwanda Specific Plan including sections 3A, I! and 6.1 and in
some cases reinforces them. Policy 3.53.104,uf the specific plan states a neighborhood
commercial center should meet the retail and service needs of residential comm-mities — Vvious
Master Plans for dit±60 acre Community Hub planned within the Edwanda 3pecific rian at 24th
Street and Fast Avenue have included community service uses sudh as a library, religious facilities,
child care facilities, and a fire sW - VVLlile it 1s rzcognized that this master plan exhibit is not an
official City document, it does reflect many discussions with the Planning Commission. With the
exception of child care, these facilities and other service related businesses are permitted within NC
districts (reference &. zicle 5.23.203,scbeAule of permitted and conditionally pem\itted uses). As we
understand child care facilities are only Billowed in "V o- VA" residential districts neither of
V16ch are planned within the surrounding area of Etiw- , la or Etiwanda Nortbwsa of Day Creek
Boulevai.4.
firs second request is to have the Planning Commission clarify the land ix;e intent for the 14 acre
site in question lecated within the "Conrimunityllub". We agree a review of this )and u&-;should
he made in the context of Edwanda North as identified in Larry Hende ekes lette., And after
reviewing the draft Rancho Cucamonga Edwanda North Specific Plan (RCENSFN 11here seems to
be a potential lanA use conflict. Please consider the following:

1, The 14 acre site located at the south -east comer of East Avenue and 24th Street is
urrently split zoned with approximately five acres %xighborhood commercial And nine
9;.res very low density residential. City planning staff has�,on other occasions specified
that n ^ighborhood comtnerral sites should be between 10 and 15 acres. Additionally,
Section 3.53.100 of the Edwanda Specific Plan, describes •a "tiler; hat would typically
take at least 10 acres (15 acres with auxiliary uses).
2. If the site at East Avenue and 2Ath Street were to rent ain split zoned with less than nine
acres very low density residential, it is likely that no =or.- than 15 residential lots would
be developed. These lots would be bordered by 24th Street, commer; ial use, a flG:)d
control basin, and a cow..ttunitypark. Such isolated lots %"would b. undesirable from a
living and safety standpoint.
3. The December 1990 draft of the RCENSP included a acre site as Neighborhood
Commercial. This site is•also adjacciu to 24th Street less than k -%e -half mile to the
k northeast and i; zoned PD 2!1 in the County General Plan. Snot a location would seem
to be in conflict with some of the objxtives and policies (3.!i2 and 3.53. 100) of the
Etiwanda Spzcific Plan.
Prior to our filing appiications to amend the land use maps of the Etiwanda Specific Plan and
General i'lan (changing the ±9 z,,ies very low residential designation to neighborhood commercial)
wewould like to discuss the above issues. Previous market studies have indicated there is not a
sufficient market for both u 14 acre and a 15 -20 acre commercia site and City staff has indicated
additional market and economic studies an: likely to be rN tad. A cettainleve? of resolution and
direction from the Planning Commission seemsneceq.�ary `before discussing adYtionnal studies
substantiatin.r both our 14 ac-e site and City staffs proposr " I5 -20 acre site. `ioa.,Tt consideration
and direction L4 these matters is appreciated.
Please do not hesitate trn call should you have any questions: —�ariia j the sbova and we look .
forward to being sched- -! on the next available Planning � — amission agenda.

SUBJECT: PROPOSED GENERA! PLAN AMENDMENT AND SPECIFIC PLAN AMENDMEKTS
1,T 24TH STKI r` AND EAST AVENUE
Dear Ms. Brown:
This letter is a follow -up to telephone conversations thE..t yo6l ve hal
with Vince Bertoni of our staff. You have indicated to him that your
ca!!pany is considering submitting a request to amend the Etiwanda
Specific Plan and General Plan land use maps from Very Lori Residential
(VL) to Neighborhood Commercial (NC) for property on the south side of
24th Street east of East Avenue. In addition, it is also our
understanding that you are considering submitting a request to amend the
text of the Etiwanda Specific Plan to conditionally permit nursery
schools in NC districts. The foll.awing information is provided to AM
assist you in the preparation of your applications:
1. The request to amend the land use maps may be initiated by
the property owner or his /her designee. The amendment to the
text of the Specific Plan, however, must be initiated by the
City. Therefore, a letter most be submitted to the Planning
Division rp,questing that the•Planning Commission consider the
proposed text amendment. Once a letter is received by the
Planning Division, the item will be scheduled for the next
available Planning Commission meeting. If the Planning
Commission agrees to hear the request, then a formal
application must be submitted along with the .appropriate
application fees. Again, this proposal would require three
separate applications; the General Plan Amendment and
Specific rlan Amendment applications for the land use chance
and the Specific Plan Amendment application for the tez�
change.
2. The land use amendments involve changing land use
designations from Residential to Commercial; therefrre, Staff
anticipates requiring an economic analysis and market study
to support the applications. Once a formal application is
submitted, staff will prepare the request for proposal,
interview, and select the consultant. An economic analysis
r and narket study that is not commissioned by the City will
not be viewed as impartial and will not satisfy the above
requirement.

3. Due to the subject` .property's location, the land use
amendment will be viewed in the context of the Et wat,_._ -North
Specific Plan. In other words, we will review the amei inents
with all existing and future, sand uses to mittd; as as our
normal practice. ,;:e will also consider alternative land, use
designations for not only the subject property but also the
exist',Ig neighborhood commercial 'site. It is recommended
that you familiarize yourself with the overall goals; and'
objectives of the Etiwanda Specific Plan to determine how
your request complies. The Etiwanda'Specific Plan should not
be viewed in the same light as other regulatory provisions in
the City. More specifically, please r6fer to Sections 3.4,
3.5, and 6.1 of the Plan.
Our office has mailed your applications and submittal requirement
checklists for the above - described applications. If you should have any
i Vin S i or ` a
further. questions, ease do not hesitate to call Vince erton me t

felt the site in question would require'extensive mitigation meascices.
Commissioner Melcher did not object to the particular use on its own
merits. However, he thought that if the use were, approved, there would be no
basis for excluding other users. He felt that a large amcaint of retail use in
the industrial area would negatively impact the commercial area. -
Commissioner Chitiia agreed that a large amount would change the entire
Industrial Specific Plan area.
Commissioner Tolstoy commented that Archibald avenue was not designed as a
retail center, but it ha6'turned into one.
Mr. Kroutil Ftated that -the .industrial Area Specific Plan currFntly a ?'

work out, they could continua the item to allow the project to be corditioned

Betty Miller, Associate. Engineer, presented the staff report and stated that
staff had received a letter from the Northwoods Properties 'Community
Associ'ition reiterating their opposition to 'either of the parcels taking
access via Northridge Drive.
Chairman MCNi-el opened the public hearing.
I
Steve Luna, 8990 19th Street, 0201, Rancho Cucamonga, stated he was available
to answer questions.
commissioner Melcher asked if Mr. Luna had any objections to Parcel 2 taking
access from Northridge Drive.
Planning Commission Minutes -2- April 24, 1991
r"
I
Mr. Luna responded he did not, but would prefer the configuration shown el "she
proposed parcel map.
Linda Froat, president of Northwoods Propd,,rtien Community Association, stated
they had presented their position in the letter and in testimony at the March
27, 1991, meeting. She felt approval of the project should be based on access
being taken from the north end of the lots. She thought that the new
homeowners would not be required to honor the CC&Rs of the Homeowners'
Association. She said the CC &Rs include strict architectural controls and
prohibitions on leaving garage -doors open and trash cans but. She reported
that the CC&Rs contain monetary penalities to members who do not comply. She
thought that allowing any of the lots to take access from Northridge Drive
would lead to deterioration of the landscaping. She felti the City has an
obligation to the Homeowners' Association to 'rohibit access to Northridge
Drive.
Charles Doecow, attorney representing Northwoods`Homeowners, Association, 222
North Mountain Avenue, Upland, felt that there had been almost complete
unanimity expressed at the March 27 meeting regarding prohibition of access
from Northridge Drive. He supported the first option suggested in the staff
report. He said he did not understand the concerns .raised by the Planning
Commission. He requested that if access were to be granted via Northridge
Drive that at least the exterior of the homes be subject to CC&Rs. He thought
the issue should not be important to the rest.of the City as there were only
two lote in question. He reiterated the 'objection of the residents to having
Planning commission Minutes -3- April 24, 1991
access via Northridge Drive.
Jim Nichols, Hoard of Directors, Northwoods Homeowners' Association and
chairman of the landscape corsnittee, 10257 Coralwood Court, Rancho Cuct,nonga,
stated that staff had objected to one of the alternatives because it would ,
require a four -way access. He said there were several such intersections in
their community, and they did not pose any problems. He felt tlgt if either
of the lot3 were given access off Northridge Drive, it would set a precedent .
for the other three lots to be developed in the future. He said the residents
wern concerned that the lots will be equestrian and vehicles would be parked
aGToss, . the street. He said the CC &Rs prohibit parking on the - street. He
thought -that if access to Parcel 2 were given .across Parcel 1, the owner �s
Parcel 1 would not be able to -deny access. Fe showed pictures of the
landucaping to the north of Northridge Drive, the community, and horse
trailers parked on a street.
Commissioner Chitiea questioned the ownership of the landscaped area north of
Northridge Drive.
Mr. Nichols responded that it is public right -of -way owned by the City.
Hearing no further testimony, Chairman McNiel closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Melcher stated he was convinced that the proposal as originally
set forth was superior to the other scenarios presented. He commented it
would allow development to go forth and would not necessarily lead to unsafe

Mo
streets. He fell Alternative 2 would require more streets. Be st:,ted that
Northridge Drive is a public street and he felt the ir'.elligRat ,planning
approach would require that at least Parcel 2 take access from Northrido
Drive.
Commissioner Chitiea concurred with Commissioner Helcher that access should "be
from Northridge Drive. She felt both parcels should do so. $be thought the
residents would be better off facing tbye front of homes, than the rear. She
reiterated that Northwoods is not a prvIllate community.
commissioner Tolsioy stated he 'hoped it would be possible for both lots to
take access to the nort't, but after looking at the ownership and existing lot
sizes, he did not feel -a street system ' could be well designed t$ accomplish
that. He thought god planning would dictate thy, the lofts facing Northridge
Drive have access to Northridge Drive. He suggested that the owners should,
1
join the Homeowners' Association.
Commissioner Valletta stated the item had been continued to allow time to plan
for a better street access. She was concerned that proper fire access be ,
provided. She indicated that although - she would like to agree with the
community's wisnea, she felt at a minimum Parcel 2, should be accessed from
Northridge Drive.
Chairman McNiel thought that ^additional zLtIe* —&E streets sheeld— net ---ha-
i ary
to accommodate only a few parcels. He did not feel that restricting
access to Northridge Drive represented good nlanninq. He concurred with the
Planning commission Minute -5- April 24, 1991
_h
remainder of the Planni,Ag Commission that the�:kioperties adjacent to
Northridge Drive Thou d be accessed from Northridge Drive.`
Commissioner Tolstoy agreed that all properties adjacent to Northridge Drive
should front onto it.
Barrye Hanson, Senior civil Engineer, asked if the Commissioners wished to add
a condition to require that owners join the Homeowners' Association.
Ralph Hanson, Deputy City Attorney, stated a condition could be added that the
prop^rty owners cooperate with the Northwoods Properties Community
Association, but the Associait would have to vote to accept, them as members.
C
Barrye Hanson asked if a sidewalk should be required on the north side of
Northridge Drive.
III -
f commissioner`Chitiea felt it would be appropriate to not require a sidewalk.
Barrye Hanson stated some additional changes would have to be made to the
resolution, such as the elimination of standard condition 4.

Ralph Hanson suggested the Commission may wish to direct staff, -.. :return with
a resolution of approval.

Chairman McNiel reopened the public hearing to ask Mr. Luna if he would object
to continuing the item.
Mr. Lunn consented to continuing the matter.
Mr. Coleman suggested that if both parcels front onto Northridge Drive, it may
change the variance request.°
Ralph Hanson stated that a'change to the variance woulaz;,require the item be

Mr. Luna agreed to continue the matter to allow for readvertising.

suggested a variance could be prucessed in connection with the conditional use
permit application.
Commissioner Melrher felt the trailer would be permanent so long as the use is
there.
Dan Coleman, Principal Planner, stated that the Commission policy in the past
had been to approve temporary trailers for a limited time, generally two
l� years, subject to Cmwassion approval of time extensions.

which has a limited life, He said they rent the building on a mono. to -month
basis. He Lndicated the owner plans to de<ncaish the building and build a
business park. He felt it would be impossible for the church to provide a
roaster plan became the owner has submitted a master plan. He said the owner
of the properly was planning to build a 10,000 Fare foot building for the
church and was in the process of subamitting the project to the City. Ha
commented that there are many modular buildings in Rancho Cucamonga and said
they were wi.11irq to accept a time 31mit. He indicated they were willing t.;
make the modular building :attractivet Iie requested a variance to ti=
requirement far a master plan.
Commissioner Vallette asked if the church was willing to landscape.
Pastor Wood said they were willing to nsicall whatever landscaping IS
requested. He felt they had Wxeady improved the condition of the overall
area. He expressed a w,illn%iness to paint the entire building plus the
modular building.
Hearing no further testimony, char -Dan McNiel closed the public hearing
Brad Buller, City Planner, stated that in the past churches Have been
requested to suimit master plans when they request temporary buildings so that
the City has ac plan for the eventual removal of the tetporaty building. He
indicated that the Development Code establishes time limits for approvals
unless extensions are granted. He said the code does not set separate time
limits for master plans and :interpretation is open regarding whather a master
plan expires if the project it was prerr for expires. He indicated the
original master plan was presented in connection with 'a conditional use permit
request for a mini-storage project. However, the °mnditional use permit has
expired. He said the properly owner has indicated they are in the process of
preparing a new master plan and no mention of a proposed church was brouyit up
in the site plan which had been preliminarily presented by the property
owner. He indicated the Commission could decide that the original master plan
still exists, but then they would have to i mr -,ke a determination regarding
whether the level of master planning requested ay the City had been met by the
original rester plan.
Palph Hanson, Deputy City Attorney, stated that if the Commission determined
that the muster plan submitted by the property owner was valid, the appeal
could then be upheld.
Chairman McNiel said he had undersi:ood that the previously submitted master
plan was not going to be built as planned.
Mr. Buller said the original master plan included a mini.- storage facility,
which the property owner has chosen to drop. He said the property owner
believes the market is different from what it was when the master plan was
originally approvP4. He said the new master plan which the property owner has
discussed with City staff is different from the nester plan previously
submitted.
Planning Commission Minutes -6- April 24, 1991
Codiiussioner Tolstoy said that one of the concerns of the Commission
granting the use of a temporary building has been how long the teq=
building would remain. He felt the master plan should indicate that
church will have a permanent facility to move into. He felt a permar
scructure should be shown to take the place of the temporary b nlduzj. He
not fee: the previously sutmitted master plan fulfilled that requirement.
Catmissioner Mel c her felt the applicant should request a variance from
requirement for a master plan as the property cmner's master plan would °t
prudence over one prepared by the church. He said that world allow
Comission to grant relief from the master plan requirement.
Commissioner Tolstcy asked how the City would define tegx
Cconissioner Belcher suggested it be set up for two years.
Cannissioner Chitiea asked if permitting the trailer for a two-year period
would hinder the further deve1cpment of the property by the owner.
Mr. coleman felt the resolution could be worded to permit the temporary use
for two years unless the property owner wished to develop the rwoperty soorwr.
Coen ssioner Melcher asked ii the Camission were to approve a conditional use-
permit and variance to allow the temporary trailer, if it could be made non -
renewable so that the church would pursue alternate arrangements if the
developer had riot moved forward with a permanent building.
Mr. Hanson stated that the Ctorrm.issien could only indicate t4iat future renewals
would be discouraged.
Camissi=eer Tolstcy asked what would make the use temporary if the master
plan sW tted years ago had not been executed..
Ccooissicner Melcher felt that Victory chapel would occupy the site until the
building was demolished for future development.
Mr. Duller indicated that the new proposed ma. -ter plan sttmitted by the
property owner included the existing structure as remaining.
Chairman McNiel reopened the public hearing to ask who had installed the
temporary building.
Pastor Wood said that the current building is being' left in the new master
plan, but a nerd building would be built by the property owner: elsewhere on the
27- acre site. He said they would relocate and they need a rmr building
because they have outgrown the current facility.
airman V.-Niel again closed the public hearing.
Mr. Buller said the. Planning Cmamussion may grant the applicant the

apporbmity to return with a variance request to naive the mater plan
condition -jn conjunc►tiion with da: conditional use permit. He said the
camai.ssion lien could grant the card tiona? use parmit with a Set tint with
the understanding that tims.-extensions may not be granted.
W. 'Hanson said that the 'ultimate- da:isionl on whether to ;grant the cm- iditicnal
use 'permit for the temporary trailer was nat currently before the coamiwicn
fuse staff had :determined"that the application: is inclete. He said the
Ccomissimi reedad to dztermi • , the incompleteness Issue only. He said the
Commission had basically three options: (1) dew the appeal and determine the
applicant needs to submit a master plan, (2) deny the appeal and request that
the applicant subnit a variance, or {3) grant the appeal by accepting rhe
master plann already on file, , ]mowing that the master plan is probably not

ti
Hone had submitted the project over two years ago. He requested that action
be taken on the project, but baid he preferred that the Commission not deny
the application. He felt the issue to be whether the applicant had provided
sufficient, information to the City. He reported that three separate traffic
analy bad been submitted and he felt that all necessary information had
been submitted to the Cif.. ;garding traffic and drainage. He said that each
time the applicant met` staff, sew information was requested. He
requested that the Planning Commission determine that sufficient studies had
been submitted because he felt they were at an impasse regarding the traffic
analysis. lie said that staff contends that the applicant miscalculated, and
staff had not been willing to supply the raw data which the City used for
their traffic r -del. He connented that staff had advised the application
would not be .- mplete until the project proponent obtained right -of -way .-om
'a other landowners. He indicated t.1he applicant was willing to return to the
Design Review Committee. He repotted they had spent over $80,000 on drainage -

studies and there was a ;disagreement because staff is ,equevting a flow-
through system with.a retention basin and their study indicated that a flow -by
system would be susf5xient.
Patrick Lang, 99 South Chester Avenue, Pasadena, stated the City's computer
traffic model for tb,, `'ear 2010 indicated traffic on Miller Avenue wial be
21,000 trips per da, -, -while his study shows 7,000 trips per flay. He :ndica -.Ied
he had requested the raw data and the City then reran the model and indicated
a reduction to 15,000 trips per day. He stid the strzat currently has only 75
trips. He said the City had not provided the raw data --o him. HP
rou u-,ted the raw data be supplied. an ,he could put the raw data into his
ct_ ter.. He said he understood the City accepted the traffic studyrs general
Ies but there was a disagreeinent over cumulative impacts.
Bill Mann, Bill Mann & Associates, 1802, Commerce Center West,- -suite A, San
Bernardino, stated he had been consulted regarding the drainage. He satd the
site has certain constraints, but he felt they had adequately addrzssed the
issues. He said over $85,000 had been spent on the drainage study. He shownd
a mss; of the surrounding area and ,indicated the major problem -is the
requirement for providing a drainage plan for the area to the north of their
development. He reported they originally looked at ,> by -pass aystem
consistent with the City's maste:`i plan, but the City was not comfortable with
the system. He said they then submitted a new plan with the northern basin as
a by -pass basin and the lower basin ab a flow- through one. He indicated they
meet with staff in March and June of 1990. He thought they had submitted
sufficient data to show the system would work.

}
Chairman McNiel asked if the ,project were being built now, how much of the
system would be built.
Mr. Mann replied that U. S. Roms,V would only have to excavate one -third of a
baoin to provide sufficient capacity for the U. S. Home site and current
development to the north.
Commissioner Toletcy asked if both, proposed basins were on U. 'S. Bome�sn°�-
property,
Mr. Mann reepondel that the basin shown across the street was not on their
property.
Mr. Schultz stated that the first developer is required to design the
system. He said that most cities do not ,require the level of sophistication
required by the City of R�nchm Cucamonga.
Chairman MaNiel said that the City has experienced severe wa eVAh_-d problems
in the past.
Barrye Hanson, Senior Civil Engineer, said he had not been aware that all of
the requested data had not been given to the applicant's traffic engineer. He
said he did not bring up the traffic icaue as an incompleteness item because
he felt they were merely at odds. He said Mr. Mann had indicated to staff
that he was working on a new plan for drainage which had not yet been

regarding their proposed alternate, _which he felt. would require that the
master plan be revised.
Ralph - Uanson, Deputy City Engineer, stated the matter had come to hi3
attention and it appeared there was an impasse. He indicated that simply
having an application stuck in the process is not acceptable. He commented
that the action before the Commission was not o.1 the merits of the
application, but - merely that staff did not feel they had 'sufficient
infcrmation to eOrA&t+G%the project. He said the Commission was being asked
to determine if the applicant had submitted sufficient information to deem the
application complete. He said the suggestion for a denial was only
recognition that the City must act. He suggested a continuance with some
direction as to which way the City would want to go. He thought Engineering
might indicate what additional information they would like to see in order to
process the application. He requested that if the Commission were to decide
to continue the application, that r. S. Homes agree to a 'a-�vier. of the time
i
limits.
Mr. Schultz skated he was prepared to stipulate to a continuance of 60 days.
He said the last time they met with staff, staff'- atated that Foothill
Boulevard must be improved adjacent to the property in order to deem the
application complete.
Chairman MoNiel closed the public hearing. He suggested that the Commission
direct staff and the applicant to resolve; the problems under the City

Attorney's guidance.
CL:..iizsioner Tolstoy asked whitt additional information ,staff would ,peed.
r'
Barrye Hanson stated staff still needs a determination of costs and an
allocation of the costs to the'suLlrounding property owners. He said staff's
largest concern with the proposed realignment is how the surrounding property '
owners will be affected.
Commissioner Tolstoy observed that,the problems appeared to be drainage basin
design and size, drainage basin location, and traffic.
Paul 'Rougeau, Traffic F,ngineer, stated that the traffic issue revolves around
the size that Miller Avenue should be (two or)i four lanes). He indicated that
the City completed its traffic model after the project was submitted. He felt
the original traffic study submitted by the applicant did not consider outside
influences on street volumes. He said he had been satisfied after minor
clarifications that minor issues of intersect'.: s could be worked out.
Commissione'% Melcher asked if the City had supplied all the raw data to the
developer.
Mr. Rougeau responded that he had given data many months ago, and becausa he
i
had not "been app_oached for additional data, he thought it had been
sufficient. He said the raw material in the study would be made available to
the applicant.

Ralph Hanson asked if staff thought 60 days would be sufficient time to review
the new data supplied and condition the project.
}
Sazrye Hanson did, not feel that would be sufficient time. He said that as a
courtesy, staff had preliminarily submitted the incomplete project to the
Design Review Committee and Technical Review Committa.e. He said staff had not
seen maps in their final form and the project would need to be rescheduled
through Technical Rev,'%ew and Design Review because c,7 changes. He felt staff
would need 90 -120 clays from the time information is submitted.
Chairman McNi:el reopened the public hearing to ask when the applicant could
submit the additional information.
Mr. Mann indicated the information could be submitted within 30 days
Ralph Hanson requested a waiver of time conditions pending xesubmittal. He
said the applicant could demand their rights at any time.
Mr. 'Schultz stated . th - :did not have a problem with a 150 -day delay. He said

daughter of the applicant. she said they had been working with Mr.. Ross and
had already corrected some of the itrms on the list. She reported they had
contracted to modify the fire. sarinklers and paint the building. She
indicated they currently lease the building but hope to close escrow
shortly. She report ',-they had received a business license from the City and
received approval from Planning Division for the use. She stated nothing had
been indicated on the business license that a Conditional Use Permit would be
required.
Mr. Roes stated that whet the business license was approved, it was believed
the use was permitted without; a conditional use permit.

a lot of money trying to meet the requirements. Mr. .- U.Menez stated the

problems with traffic.

space in the City. He felt granting of the conditional use permit would be
unfair to storekeepers who?lease the higher priced commercial space.
Commissioner. Tolstoy agreed that he had the same concerns. He also felt the
building was not designed for retail use because the parking layout was not
oriented properly and customers would have to enter through a loading dock
area. He opposed the conditional use permit.
Commissioner Vallette concurred.
Chairman McNiel agreed, but said there were other warehouse operations in the
City with some retail. He did not object, to the use as defined.
Commissioner Chitiea felt that a small amount of retail use in conjunction
with a warehouse is appropriate. She felt :hat if the main function is to be
sales, then appropriate amenities and parking would need to be provided. She

development in a town designed for retailing. He felt retailing in the
industrial area should be limited to incidental.
Commissioner Valletta felt incidental retailing in the industrial area could
be successfoi, but,it needs to be site specific. She was opposed to requiring
1 custnmers to cross through a loading area.
i
Commissioner Tolstoy thought retail should be conducted in a building designed
for retail use. He did not want to turn the industrial area into a retail
area,
Mr. Buller stated the provision conditionally permitting retail has always
been In the Industrial Area specific Plan, and there have not bsen many
applications. He did not feel it would be a common use. He suggested the
applicant be permitted to investigate with staff to else if a better layout
could be provided.
Commissioner Chitiea stated that 20 percent of office /professional buildings
are permitted to be etail in the Haven Avenue overlay District, but she felt
the permitted percentage of retail should be much less in a warehouse
building. She felt that the,_ application should only be approved 3f it
include4' less floor area, a total reorganization of the parking lot, and
additional laL-- soaping. She felt retail use should only be incidental.

Issuance of a Nega`ive Declaration.
I i
Anna -Lisa Hernandez, Assistant Planner, presented the staff report.
i
Chairman McNiel asked if any cities prohibit swap meets.
Ms. Hernandez replied affirmatively.
Chairman McNiel opened the publin hearing.
Richard Mager, Lewis Homes, 1156 North Mountain, Uplznd, stated that the City
Planning Commission Minutes -7- April t., 1991
of Rancho Cucamonga expects development to ba a cut above other cities. He
felt swap meats - either indoor or outdoor. - would be an incompatible use for
the City. He requested that neither indoor 9tdoor swap meets be
permitted.
Rance Clouse, Lee a Associates, stated the request for an amendment for indoor
swap meet use ha4 been brought before the Planning Commission in January 1991.
He said the purpose of the amendment is to establish high standards for
development.
Chairman McNiel asked if Mr. Clouse hdd 'looked at any outdoor swap meets.
Mr. Clou "- reepcnded negatively. He said his client's concern was that there
is no clear definition of indoor swap meets.
Commissioner Melcher asked if any industrial facilities in the City would be
able to provide the proposed required parking.
Mr. Clouse believed there to be several facilities which would meet the
requirements.
Ja+E3 Page, Carnival Malls, 6221 warner Drive, Los Angeles, stated he had
applied in Rancho Cucamonga becausa he realized his proposed type of an indoor
facility is an upgrade over traditional swag meets. He felt the use is more
Comparable to a mall . with concerns about parking, traffic, and security. He:
indicated regional malls do not eccommoeate small entrepreneurs by having.
Planning Commission Minutes -8 April 24, 1991
booths of only 100 to 200 s �
guars ;set. He commented that generally traffic
problems are created because swap, meets are located near residential areas.
He also felt his proposed use was not compatible with retail because of the
increased traffic the swap meet use would generate.
f
Commissioner Melcher asked how the proposed use di5fers from typical outdoor
strap meets.
Mr. Page responded that he proposed incubator outlet "space for" small`
manufacturers.. He Said he would provide amenities for children (such.. as
kiddie rides) and passive entertainment for other family members. Hs reported
that they would be operating on a $20,000 per month advertising budget. He
said they would only be open on weekends and only `52 percent of the total
floor space would be retail use with the remainder of the apace used for open
space and amenities.
,
commissioner ehitiea asked if Mr.. Page planned to charge an admission fee..
f
Mr. Page replied they had not decided as yet:
` Mr. Mager reportedi his firm had been approached by several swap meet operators
f- wishing to locate in the Gemco center. He eaid they had refused to consider
the use because they did not feel indoor :swap meets will be successful.. He
did not think enough retailers could be attracted to fill the space.

owner of Carnival Mall. Hn showed a sketch of a proposed mall He indicated
they had considered the Gemco center, but the center did not have suf`icient
parking.
As there was no further testimony, Chairman McNiel closed the public hearing.
He said that the Commission was currently considering standards„ so that if
the use were approved, it would be a cut above.
Commissioner Toletoy thought that incubator retail opportunities sound like an
exciting program. He did not feel outdoor swap meets should be permitted at
all except for special fund- raising events. He did not bel ±eve indoor swap
meets would be appropriate in the Heavy Industrial area.; He was concerned
that any swap meet use, vould create trash generatimi problems, graffiti, and
management problems. He felt the biggest- ,problems would be in the area of
traffic and parking. He thought parking should be at a ratio of one space per
i
100 square feet.`
Commissioner Chitiea did not feel swap meets are appropriate within -the
City. she suggested that if any swap meet use is to be considered, it should
only be indoor. She believed the use should only be in the commercial area,
because it is a retail use, but felt that traffic flow and patterns need to be
considered. She did not feel the use to be at all appropriate in the
5
industrial area. She said she had never seen any swap meets that have been
maintained properly.
Commissioner Wallet -te agreed with staff recommendations. She thought the swap

meet organizer should be required to provide a monthly listing of all vendors
..,including mailing addrssses.. She felt maintenance requirements should be
stringent and parking requirements should be at least one apace per 100 square
feet.
Commissioner Melcher stated he was inclined to agree with Commiseioner Tolstoy
regarding -,- ohibiting outdoor swap meets. He asked haw the City would police
the requirement that only new goods be sold. He hoped the use would not be
factory stores. He was ,concerned that ,eon%toring by code enforcement would be
very time consuming and expensive.
Chairman McNiel felt �?:at. outdoor swap meet - should only be permitted on an
occasional basis under the temporary use permit process. Fie concurred with a,,
parking ratio of one apace per 100 square feet. He felt the use could be
�r
permitted in the industrial area if hours were limited to weekend use.
Commissioner Chitiea stated she was concerned about staff "s time in policing
the use.. She said she was very uncomfortable with the concept as she did not
wish to undercut the retail area. She supported awap meets as a fund raiser
for charity purposes with a temporary use permit.
' Commissioner Melcher asked staff's reasoning for selecting a parking ratio of
one space per 150 square feet.
MS. Hernandez stated that staff had conducted an exhaustive study and Santa
Ana was the only city requiring one spaee per 100 square feet, but their use
Planning Commission Minutes -11- April 24, 1991
is not in an industrial area.
Dan Coleman, Principal Planner, stated that staff would be comfortable with a
ratio �Df any whFre from one space per 1G' I'll square feet to one space per 150
square feet.
Commissioner Chitiea felt introduction of the use may hurt the proposed
regional mall. She fe,t that if the use were to be approved it should he in
c. the commercial area.
Chairman Mcfliel felt the use t -`be appropriate.
Mr. Buller recommended that the item be continued for two weeks to allow staff
to prepare a resolution addressing the Commission's concerns. He suggested
outdoor swap meets could iierhaps be eliminated and the parking could be
changed to one space per 100 square feet. He said swap meets that are held on
occasion are permitted under the temporary use permit regulations. ; He
suggested staff could investigate the idea of instituting ,a fee to cover
enforcement.
Chairman McNiel reopened the public hearing.

Commissioner Chitiea asked where additional signage would be placed. She
commented that the entrance for emergency services is through the main
entrance of the building.
Mr. Neumann indicated these- proposed positu)ns.
Commissioner Chitiea wondered if .,�W sign, should be placed on a building when
0-+
the entrance is located through another building.
Commissioner Tolstoy felt the monument signs need to be larger.
Brad. Buller, City Planner, stated the issue was not the size of the signs but
the number of signs permitted. �f
Paul Eaton, Ontario Newo /Sign Company, 7777 Mi liken Asenue, Rancho Cucamonga,
felt that the directio�j 1 signs within the enter are adequate, but he -felt
additional signage needed that be easily identified from the
intersection. He showed pictures indicating where the additional signs would
be placed. He i`ad,icated --" felt the urgent care sign was theist most
pressing need.
Commissioner Tolstoy ,asked if the physicians were just leasing space in the
building.
Mr. Neumann responded that the physicians are entering a limited partnership
agreement to be owner /tenants of the buildings and they manage their own +
practices. X
chairman McNiel felt that visitors would bF.confuser! ifit a wall, sign listed

commissioner Chitiea agreed that an urgent care sign should clearly indicate
where the entrance is located.
commissioner Melcher felt that the existing sign program is inadequate. He
suggested the applicant re- evaluate the sign program for the entire center.
-=- Commissioner vallette felt that more signs are needed. She wondered if the
Commission could approve the use as a multi- tenau;t building to permit
additional signs.
Mr. Buller stated that even if the use ware determined to be multi- tenant, i
additional monument signs would not be permitted
Commissioner Tolstoy -felt there should be a wall si% �.iad tx ho San ,

thought tha south end of a building has auf #icient signage. He suggested a
well lit mo:a -eint sign to, designate the urgent care entr nces. He also felt
the direc iciz�i signs in the parking lot should be enlarged. He thought the
entire slgn program should be reconsidered.
Chairman McNiel did not want each physican requesting their own sign. He
opposed placing an urgent care sign any where that would not direct visitors
to the entrance door for emergency care.

Brad Buller, City Planner, presented the staff report.
Commissioner Melcher commented that if child care /school facilites were
permitted within Neighborhood Commercial Districts, tt would ,Rot necessarily
mean they would be located within Neighborhood Commer" al shopping centers.:
Mr. Buller responded affirmatively. He said the app,4cant proposed to locate
a facility on a 4 -5 acre site.
Commissioner Melcher stated he understood that the ,Commission was being asked
to direct staff to initiate a text amendment if the project proponent `
submitted an application ai.d P--aid`-'all ,fees.
Mr. Buller responded affirmatively and indicated that if the Commission
directed staff to proceed with an amendment request, it did not necessarily
mean the Commission concurred with the applicant's request.
Chairman McNiel commented that such facilities are situated in other
commercial areas in the City.
Commissioner Tolstoy felt day ca -' centers are needed and may be appropriate
for commercial areas. However, he commented that if such facilities are
located in a commercial center, circulation and other concerns are important..
Commissioner Chitiea felt the use should, require a conditional use permit.
Commissioner Vallette agreed to review each an application, but indicated she
typically feels the uses are not compatible.
Chairman McNiel invited public comment.
Anita McZeal, Land Plan Design Group, 1250 West Sth Street, Apt, D, Corona,
asked for direction from the Commission regarding the City's land use intent
for a 14 acre site at the southeast corner of 24th Street and East Avenue.
Chairman McNiel thought the purpose of the Etiwanda Specific Plan was to make
sure the area retained a country atmosphere.
Mr. Buller stated the project propt+nent wished to propose an amendment, but in
the past the Commission's policy had been to consider such an amendment only
after a project was submitted and environmental and planning documentation is
submitted.
Ms. McZeal stated her company felt the area deserves special Planning
Com, Ission feedback.
Commissioner Melchor felt; special treatment was not warrented.
Commissioner CUtiea cpnr-arred. She felt it was appropriate for the developer
to go through the normal process and indicated staff time is at a premium.
It was the consensus of the Commiso$on to direct staff to pursue an amendment
if an application is fil3d.
