A. Recitals. 1. The City of Rancho Cucamonga filed an application for the approval of Development Review DRC2008-00481, 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 February 2010, 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 hearing on February 24, 2010, including written and oral staff reports together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application applies to property located at southwest corner of Milliken Avenue and Grizzly Drive with a street frontage of 345 feet and lot depth of 226 feet and is presently vacant; and b. The property to the north of the subject site is vacant, the property to the south is vacant,the property to the east is Los Osos High School, and the property to the west is vacant; 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 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 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 10-09 DRC2008-00481 — CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA February 24, 2010 Page 2 d. The proposed use, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be detrimental to the public health, safety,welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. 4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the application, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application,the Planning Commission finds that no subsequent or supplemental environmental document is required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in connection with the review and approval of this application based upon the following findings and determinations: a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the County of San Bernardino adopted a Negative Declaration on January 6, 2010, in connection with the County's approval of Rancho Cucamonga Sheriffs Department Substation and Property Transfer (Exhibit A). Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, no subsequent or supplemental EIR or Negative Declaration is required in connection with subsequent discretionary approvals of the same project unless: (i) substantial changes are proposed to the project that indicate new or more severe impacts on the environment; (ii)substantial changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the project was previously reviewed that indicates new or more severe environmental impacts; or (iii) new important information shows the project will have new or more severe impacts than previously considered; or(iv)additional mitigation measures are now feasible to reduce impacts or different mitigation measures can be imposed to substantially reduce impacts. b. The Planning Commission finds, in connection with the DRC2008-00481 that substantial changes to the project or the circumstances surrounding the project have not occurred, which would create new or more severe impacts than those evaluated in the previous Negative Declaration. The project is a joint project between the County and the City to provide public safety services to the northern portion of the City and the unincorporated areas along the foothills and the project site and architectural design are consistent with the County's prior analysis. Staff further finds that the project will not have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous Negative Declaration, not have more severe effects than previously analyzed, and that additional or different mitigation measures are not required to reduce the impacts of the project to a level of less-than-significant. The project site and architectural design are consistent with the County's prior analysis. There have not been any significant changes in the surrounding area subsequent to the County's environmental action. C. Based on these findings and all evidence in the record, the Planning Commission concurs with the staff determination that no additional environmental review is required in connection with the City's consideration of the Tentative Parcel Map SUBTPM19087 and Development Design Review DRC2008-00481. 5.
