A. Recitals.
1. Traigh Pacific filed an application for General Plan Amendment DRC2003-00410, as
described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the subject General Plan
Amendment is referred to as "the application."
2. On the 9th day of June 2004, 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.
4. The Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the associated Environmental
Impact Report prepared for said project.
5. By Resolution No. 04-75, the Planning Commission has certified the Environmental
Impact Report (EIR) prepared for the project as being in compliance with the requirements of the
California Environmental Quality Act(Public Resources Code Section 21000 at seq.)for purposes of
taking action on the Tentative Tract Map and has recommended that the City Council certify the EIR
for purposes of taking action on the related General Plan Amendment.
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 facts and information contained in the record of this project,the Planning
Commission makes the following findings and statements, and takes the following actions, pursuant
to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") (Public Resources Code Section 21000
et seg.):
a. The Project that has been evaluated under CEQA involves a series of actions
related to the annexation of land from unincorporated San Bernardino County into the City of Rancho
Cucamonga, the approval of a General Plan Amendment, Etiwanda North Specific Plan Amendment,
Tentative Tract Map No. 14749 ('TTM 14749") and the associated Development Agreement. The
proposed project includes 269 single-family housing units on approximately 168.8 acres and includes
a 3.1 acre neighborhood park, 2.7 acre equestrian park, .44 acre equestrian trail, and 61.5 acres of
remainder lots for flood control purposes. The gross density of the project is approximately 1.59

Page 2
dwelling units per acre, a net density of 2.5 units per acre, a minimum lot size of 8,400 square feet,
and an average lot size of 11,600 square feet.
b. The City of Rancho Cucamonga, acting as the lead agency, prepared the Draft
Environmental Impact Report ("Draft EIR") for the Project (State Clearinghouse No. 2003081085).
The Draft EIR was circulated for a 45-day public review and comment period from December5,2003
through January 28, 2004. Comments were received during that period and written responses were
prepared and sent to all commentors. Those comments and the responses thereto have been
included in the Final EIR, as have the appendices to the Draft EIR. Those documents together
comprise the Final EIR.
C. The Planning Commission finds that the Final EIR was completed pursuant to the
CEQA, and the State Guidelines for Implementation of CEQA, 14 California Code of Regulations,
Section 15000, at. seq. ("the Guidelines"). By Resolution No. 04-75,the Planning Commission has
certified the EIR as being in compliance with the requirements of the CEQA.
d. The Planning Commission finds that the Final EIR was presented to the Planning
Commission and that the Planning Commission reviewed and considered the information in the Final
EIR and has reached its own conclusions with respect to the Project and as to whether and how to
recommend approval of various components of the project approvals before makings its
recommendation in this Resolution.
e. The Planning Commission finds that the Final EIR represents the'independent
judgment of the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga and adequately addresses
the impacts of the Project and imposes appropriate mitigation measures for the Project.
f. The Planning Commission finds, based upon the Initial Study,the Final EIR, public
comments, public agency comments, and the entire record before it, that the Project may create
significant impacts in the areas of Earth Resources; Water Resources;Transportation/Circulation;Air
Quality, Biological Resources, Hazards, Noise, Public Services, Utilities, Aesthetics, and Cultural
Resources. The proposed project will also contribute incrementally to cumulatively considerable
impacts related to land use, flood control, water quality from urban runoff, loss of alluvial fan sage
scrub, hazardous material dumping, congestion of evacuation routes, overcrowded schools,
inadequate utilities, and loss of views. With respect to the impacts to all of these resources and
services, the EIR identifies mitigation measures for each of those impacts that will substantially
lessen the impacts.
g. Implementation of mitigation measures identified in the Final EIR will substantially
mitigate many of the environmental impacts described in paragraph f of this Section, to the extent
feasible, as described in Exhibit "A" of Resolution No. 04-75, which is incorporated herein by
reference. The Final EIR also identifies significant adverse impacts that cannot be fully mitigated or
avoided, including impacts from short-term impacts on air quality from construction-related
emissions, long-term impacts on air quality from project emissions, and biological resources.
h. The Final EIR describes a range of alternatives to the Project that might fulfill basic
objectives of the Project. These alternatives include the required "No Project-No Development"
alternative, and the "No Project—Open Space" alternative, the "Reduced Density" alternative, the
Modified Site Plan (clustered)" alternative, and the "Rural Density" Alternative. As set forth in the
Exhibit "A" of Resolution No. 04-75, the alternatives identified in the EIR are not feasible because
they would not achieve the basic objectives of the Project or would do so only to a much smaller
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 04-77
GPA DRC2003-00410—TRAIGH PACIFIC

degree and, therefore, leave unaddressed the significant economic, infrastructure,and General Plan
goals that the Project is intended to accomplish, and are thus infeasible due to social and economic
considerations, and/or they are infeasible because they would not eliminate the adverse
environmental impacts of the proposed Project. Accordingly,the Planning Commission recommends
that the City Council find each of the alternatives is infeasible.
i. Mitigation measures described in the Mitigation Monitoring Program will avoid or
substantially lessen the potentially significant environmental effects of the Project. Further, the
environmental, physical, social, economic and other benefits of the Project, as set forth in this
Section and Resolution No. 04-75, and specifically Exhibit"A"thereto, which is incorporated herein
by this reference, outweigh any unavoidable, significant, adverse impacts that may occur as a result
of the Project, including short-term impacts on air quality from construction-related emissions,
cumulative long-term impacts on air quality from project emissions, and impacts to biological
resources. Therefore, due to overriding benefits of the Project and because the alternatives
identified in the EIR are not feasible, as discussed in paragraph i above, the Planning Commission
hereby recommends that the City Council find that any unavoidable impacts of the Project, including
the mitigated but unavoidable impacts from short-term impacts on air quality from construction-
related emissions, long-term impacts on air quality from project emissions, and impacts to biological
resources are acceptable based on the findings contained herein and in Resolution No. 04-75 and
the staff report, which are incorporated herein by this reference. This determination shall constitute
the Planning Commission's recommendation to the City Council for a statement of overriding
considerations within the meaning of CEQA and is based on any one of the following environmental
and other benefits of the Project identified in the Final EIR and the record of the Planning
Commission's proceedings:
i. Providing for the use of land consistent with the established policies and goals
of the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan, Etiwanda North Specific Plan, City Development
Code, and all other City Development guidelines;
ii. Annexing the project site into the City of Rancho Cucamonga;
iii. Integrating the project with the character of the surrounding neighborhoods
and establish a development that results in logical, coordinated growth;
iv. Establishing a project-wide circulation system that meets regional and local
transportation needs and accommodates both vehicles and pedestrians;
V. Providing a system of publictcommunity facilities, including trails,open space
areas, and landscaping to support the residents of the project and surrounding area in an efficient
and timely manner;
vi. Limiting Impacts to surrounding uses and residents, and to the community
character;
vii. Providing backbone public infrastructure(i.e. roads, utilities)to serve project
residents and the surrounding community;
viii. Minimizing impacts to, and generate revenues in excess of costs for, various
public service agencies, and
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 04-77

ix. Providing quality housing opportunities compatible with existing and planned
development that responds to market demands.
j. The Planning Commission recommends that the Mitigation Measures in the FINAL
EIR that correspond to the environmental impacts which may result from the Project be adopted and
made a condition of approval of, or incorporated into, the Project. The Planning Commission also
recommends that the City Council adopt the"Mitigation Monitoring Plan"attached hereto as Exhibit
"B." The Mitigation Monitoring Plan will be used to monitor compliance with the mitigation measures
and conditions that have been adopted or made a condition of Project approval as set forth in this
Section of this Resolution and Exhibit "B" of this Resolution.
3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the
above-referenced public hearing on June 9, 2004, including written and oral staff reports, together
with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. The application applies to approximately 168.77 acres of land, basically a
rectangular configuration, located north of the SCE corridor between Etiwanda Avenue and East
Avenue, and is presently vacant, undeveloped, land. Said property is currently designated as Very
Low Residential (.1-2 dwelling units per acre) and is proposed as Low Residential (2-4 dwelling units
per acre) and Resource Conservation as shown in Exhibit "A" attached; and
b. The property to the north of the subject site is designated Flood Control/Utility
Corridor and Hillside Residential and is comprised of vacant land, utility corridors, and scattered
single-family residences. The property to the southeast is designated Very Low Residential,

south is designated Flood Control/Utility Corridor, Conservation, and Very Low Residential and
includes vacant land, and utility corridors and is the proposed site of Tentative Tract Map 16072—
Richland Pinehurst; and
C. This amendment does not conflict with the Land Use Policies of the General Plan,
and will provide for development within the district in a manner consistent with the General Plan and
with related development; and
d. This amendment promotes the goals and objectives of the land use element; and
e. This amendment would not be materially injurious or detrimental to the adjacent
properties and would not have a significant impact on the environment nor the surrounding
properties.
4. 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, 2
and 3 above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows:

measures on the project. These mitigation measures are attached hereto as part of the Mitigation
Monitoring Program and are incorporated herein by this reference.
d. The EIR identified unavoidable project related impacts to short-term and long-term
air quality as described in the Findings and the Final EIR; mitigation measures are incorporated into
the project to reduce all other impacts to less than significant levels. The cumulative impacts of the
project in relation to other projects in the area have been considered. The EIR identified unavoidable
cumulative impacts as described in the Findings and the Final EIR related to land use, flood control,
water quality from urban runoff, loss of alluvial fan sage scrub, hazardous material dumping,
congestion of evacuation routes, overcrowded schools, inadequate utilities, and loss of views.
6. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3,4, and 5 above,
this Commission hereby recommends approval of General Plan Amendment DRC2003-00410.
