A. Recitals. 1. PRP Investors filed an application for the approval of Conditional Use Permit DRC2001-00638, (Day Creek Village) as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the subject Development Review request is referred to as "the application." 2. On the 24th day of July 2002, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a duly noticed public hearing on the application and concluded said hearing on that date. 3. All legal prerequisites prior to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred. B. Resolution. NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby found, determined, and resolved by the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows: 1. This Commission hereby specifically finds that all of the facts set forth in the Recitals, Part A, of this Resolution are true and correct. 2. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above- referenced public hearing on July 24, 2002, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application applies to approximately 12.59 acres of land, bounded by Interstate-210 to the north, Day Creek Boulevard to the east, William Lyon Tract (SUBTPM15871) single-family residences to the south, and the Lower Day Creek Flood Control Channel on the west. Said property is designated as Village Commercial and is currently vacant; and b. Storm drain improvements necessary to accommodate the project are not in excess of that provided by the master plan of storm drainage; and C. The project contemplates a plan that will provide for the logical development of the property and, together with the recommended conditions of approval, complies with all minimum development standards for the City of Rancho Cucamonga; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 02-75 DRC2001-00638— PRP INVESTORS July 24, 2002 Page 2 d. The project has been designed with an urban architectural style, including stacked stone and stucco with articulation elements to create contrast; and e. The buildings are oriented along a private aisle and along Highland Avenue and Day Creek Boulevard, with parking primarily within close proximity of the proposed buildings and berms, and landscaping along the two major streets to maximize screening from public view. 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above- referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2 above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows: a. That the proposed project is consistent with the objectives of the General Plan. b. That the proposed use is in accord with the objectives of the Development Code and the purpose of the Victoria Community Plan in which the site is located. C. That the proposed use, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. 4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application, the Planning Commission finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect upon the environment and adopts a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Monitoring Program attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference, based upon the findings as follows: a. That the Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as amended, and the State CEQA guidelines promulgated thereunder; that said Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Initial Study prepared therefore reflect the independent judgment of the Planning Commission; and, further, this Commission has reviewed and considered the information contained in said Mitigated Negative Declaration with regard to the application. b. Although the Mitigated Negative Declaration identifies certain significant environment effects that will result if the project is approved, all significant effects have been reduced to an acceptable level by imposition of mitigation measures on the project, which is listed below. C. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 753.5(c) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, the Planning Commission finds as follows: In considering the record as a whole, the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project, there is no evidence that the proposed project will have potential for an adverse impact upon wildlife resources orthe habitat upon which wildlife depends. Further, based upon the substantial evidence contained in the Mitigated Negative Declaration, the staff reports and exhibits, and the information provided to the Planning Commission during the public hearing, the Planning Commission hereby rebuts the presumption of adverse effect as set forth in Section 753.5(c-1-d)of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations." 5.
