APN: 0225-161-45.
A. Recitals.
1. Young California Homes, L.P. filed an application for the approval of Development
Review No. DRC2003-01186, 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 14th day of July 2004, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho
Cucamonga conducted a meeting on the application and concluded said meeting on that date.
3. All legal prerequisites prior to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.
B. Resolution.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is herebyfound, determined, and resolved bythe 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 meeting on July 14, 2004, including written and oral staff reports,this Commission hereby
specifically finds as follows:
a. The application applies to property located at the'southwest comer of Day Creek
Boulevard and Banyan Street with a street frontage of approximately 289 feet along Day Creek
Boulevard and a street frontage of approximately 658 feet along Banyan Street; and
b. The property to the north of the subject site is vacant and is zoned Low Residential;
the property to the south is developed with single-family residences zoned Low Residential; the
property to the east is developed with single-family residences and is zoned Low Residential; the
property to west is developed with single-family residences and is zoned Low Residential; and
C. The project site has a density of 3.42 dwelling units to the acre, which is within the
permitted density range of the Low Residential District; and
d. The project site is located on previously approved Tentative Tract Map
SUBTT14493, approved by the County of San Bernardino on October 26, 1999, and consists of 15
lots; and
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 04-82

e. The project falls within the Rancho Etiwanda Planned Development,which included
a conceptual layout for a 15 lot single-family development at this location; and
f. The project meets or exceeds all applicable technical requirements and design
guidelines of the Rancho Etiwanda Development Agreement and the Development Code.
3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the
above-referenced meeting and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2
above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows:
a. The proposed project is consistent with the objectives of the General Plan; and
b. The proposed use is in accord with the objectives of the Development Code and the
purposes of the district in which the site is located; and
C. The proposed use is in compliance with each of the applicable provisions of the
Development Code; and
d. 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. An Environmental Impact Report(State Clearinghouse No. 8808291)was prepared and
certified by the County of San Bernardino as a Master Environmental Impact Report for the
University/Crest Planned Development. The California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA)provides
that once a Master Environmental Impact Report has been certified, no further Environmental Impact
Report or Negative Declaration is required for subsequent projects within the scope of the Master
Environmental Impact Report. On October 26, 1999, the County of San Bernardino Board of
Supervisors certified a supplement to the Environmental Impact Report (State Clearinghouse
No. 98121091) because of a revision to the University/Crest Planned Development. In August 1999,
the City of Rancho Cucamonga prepared an Addendum to address issues associated with the
adoption of the Rancho Etiwanda Development Agreement. The Addendum identified no substantial
changes in the project that would require a major revision to the previous Environmental Impact
Report. Based upon the facts and information contained in the certified Environmental Impact
Report, together with all written and oral reports, the Planning Commission finds that there is no
substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect upon the environment.
a. There have not been substantial changes in the project that require major revisions
to the previous Environmental Impact Report because of no new significant environmental effects or
substantial increase in the severity of the previously identified significant effects.
b. There have not been substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under
which the project is undertaken, which will require major revisions to the previous Environmental
Impact Report because of the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial
increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.
C. There is no new information of substantial importance, which was not known and
could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the Environmental
Impact Report was certified as complete, that shows any of the following: 1) the project will have
one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous Environmental Impact Report;
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 04-82
DRC2003-01186—YOUNG CALIFORNIA HOMES, L.P.

Page 3
2) significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the
previous Environmental Impact Report; 3) mitigation measures or alternatives previouslyfound notto
be feasible would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects
of the project but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or
4) mitigation measures or alternatives, which are considerably different from those analyzed in the
final Environmental Impact Report,would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the
environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative.
5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above,
this Commission hereby approves the application subject to each and every condition set forth below
and in the Standard Conditions, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
