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 25, 2007, including written and oral staff reports, together
with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. The application applies to the property located on the west side of Haven Avenue,
between Arrow Route and 26th Street with a street frontage of 1,340 feet and lot depth of 571 feet,
and is presently unimproved; and
b. The property to the north of the subject site consists of two-story apartment
buildings and a vacant abandoned vineyard across Arrow Route and is zoned Medium-High
Residential and Industrial Park/Haven Avenue Overlay; the property to the south consists of"HCS
Cutler,"an industrial and commercial supply business and is zoned Industrial Park/Haven Avenue
Overlay;the property to the east across Haven Avenue consists of office business park uses and is
zoned Industrial Park/Haven Avenue Overlay; and the property to the west consists of triplexes and
single-family detached residential under construction and is zoned Low-Medium Residential.
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:

b. The design or improvements conditioned and designed as part of the tentative tract
map is consistent with the Industrial Park/Haven Avenue Overlay requirements of the General Plan,
Development Code, and Industrial Specific Plan; and
C. The site is relatively flat with street access on three sides and infrastructure
reasonably available demonstrating that the subdivision is physically suitable for the type of
development proposed; and
d. The site was previously used for a golf course and has been recently cleared of
vegetation; therefore, the design of the subdivision is not likely to cause substantial environmental
damage and avoidable injury to humans and wildlife or their habitat; and
e. The tentative tract map is designed to allow for an office condominium project
which will meet all applicable City requirements and, therefore, is not likely to cause serious public
health problems; and
f. The information submitted with the design of the tentative tract map demonstrates
there will not be a conflict with any easement acquired by the public at large, now of record, for
access through or use of the property within the proposed subdivision.
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. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act("CEQA") and the City's local
CEQA Guidelines, City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of the
project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, City staff determined that, with the
imposition of mitigation measures, there would be no substantial evidence that the project would
have a significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated Negative
Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, City staff provided public notice of the public comment period
and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration.
b. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and all
comments received regarding the Mitigated Negative Declaration and, based on the whole record
before it, finds: (i)that the Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared in compliance with CEQA;
and (ii) that, based on the imposition of mitigation measures, there is no substantial evidence that
the project will have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning Commission further finds
that the Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the
Planning Commission. Based on these findings, the Planning Commission hereby adopts the
Mitigated Negative Declaration.
C. The Planning Commission has also reviewed and considered the Mitigation
Monitoring Program for the project that has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of Public
Resources Code Section 21081.6 and finds that such Program is designed to ensure compliance
with the mitigation measures during project implementation. The Planning Commission therefore
adopts the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project.
d. The custodian of records for the Initial Study, Mitigated Negative Declaration,
Mitigation Monitoring Program, and all other materials which constitute the record of proceedings

encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a
qualified paleontologist to monitor construction activities, to take
appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. The
paleontologist shall submit a report of findings that will also provide
specific recommendations regarding further mitigation measures
(i.e., paleontological monitoring) that may be appropriate. Where
mitigation monitoring is appropriate, the program must include, but
not be limited to, the following measures:

the rapid removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to
the site full-time during the interval of earth-disturbing activities.
• Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded,
divert earth-disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has
completed salvage. If construction personnel make the
discovery, the grading contractor should immediately divert
construction and notify the monitor of the find.
• Prepare, identify, and curate all recovered fossils for
documentation in the summary report and transfer to an
appropriate depository(i.e., San Bernardino County Museum).
Submit summary report to City of Rancho Cucamonga.
Transfer collected specimens with a copy of the report to San
Bernardino County Museum.
Geology Soils
1) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent
(approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) daily to reduce PM10
emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403 or re-planted
