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 January 11, 2006, including written and oral staff reports, this
Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. The application applies to a building pad with an area of about 14,000 square feet
at the northeast corner of a parcel of about 231,000 square feet(5.31 acres)located in the Industrial
Park District (Subarea 7) at the southwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and Milliken Avenue; and
b. The building pad area is part of a previously approved project, Development
Review DRC2004-01125, that was reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission on
August 24, 2005, which in turn is part of an existing master planned commercial and industrial
complex of 140 acres that is anchored by Lowes Home Improvement (warehouse retail); and
C. Construction has not yet begun on any of the buildings within the surrounding
project area and, therefore, it is vacant to the west and south. The property across Foothill
Boulevard to the north is also vacant. To the east is a commercial center that includes,among other
uses, Lowes Home Improvement and Islands Restaurant; and
d. The application contemplates the construction of a restaurant with a full-service bar

e. The hours of operation will be Sunday through Thursday from 11:00 a.m. to
10:00 p.m., and Friday and Saturday from 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.; and
f. The architecture of the restaurant exemplifies the high-quality design that has been
established along Foothill Boulevard and Milliken Avenue. The architecture is inspired by the early
California/Spanish missions,specifically the Santa Barbara Mission,and includes design details that
were derived from the Mission Inn in Riverside; and
g. The Planning Commission previously approved a Mitigated Negative Declaration
on April 28, 1999, for the 140-acre Rancho Cucamonga Corporate Park Master Plan, of which this
site is a part. Furthermore,the Planning Commission previously issued a Negative Declaration for
the update of the Rancho Cucamonga Corporate Park Master Plan and Tentative Parcel Map
SUBTPM15630 on February 13, 2005, of which this site is a part. There have been no substantial
changes in the area to warrant further environmental review; and
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. The proposed uses are in accord with the General Plan, the objectives of the
Development Code, and the purposes of the district in which the site is located.
b. The proposed uses, 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.
C. The proposed uses comply with each of the applicable provisions of the
Development Code.
4. Environmental review was completed forthis site and the surrounding developmentand
corresponding Parcel Map SUBTPM15630 approved by the Planning Commission on
April 28, 1999, and February 13, 2005, respectively. The California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) provides that once a Mitigated Negative Declaration has been adopted, no further
environmental review is required for subsequent projects within the scope of the Mitigated Negative
Declaration. The proposed development is within the scope of the prior Mitigated Negative
Declaration and Negative Declaration, as the site was always planned for development with a
development of this type and the size and scope have not changed. Accordingly, no further
environmental review is necessary. Based upon the facts and information contained in the prior
Mitigated Negative Declaration and Negative Declaration,togetherwith written and oral staff reports,
the Planning Commission finds that there are no substantial changes in the project or the site and its
surrounding conditions that would require revision to the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration or
Negative Declaration. All environmental mitigation measures from the previously approved and
updated Master Plan and parcel map shall apply to this project.
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:
