A. Recitals. 1. Mr. Nicholas Mitsos filed an application forthe approval of Hillside Development Review No. DRC2011-00013, 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 13th day of July 2011, 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 meeting on July 13, 2011, including written and oral staff reports,this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application applies to the property located at 10897 Deer Creek Drive with a street frontage of approximately 230 feet and lot depth of approximately 192 feet and is presently vacant; and b. The applicant proposes to construct a single-family home of 6,776 square feet with an attached 3-car garage of 1,175 square feet on a vacant lot; and C. The house is architecturally compatible with the neighborhood and conforms to the Design Guidelines outlined in the Development Code, including carrying materials and architectural features to all elevations; and d. The lot coverage will be 23.5 percent, which is in accordance with the maximum allowable lot coverage of 25 percent set for the Very Low Residential District; and e. The properties to the north, south, east, and west of the subject site are single- family residences; and f. The proposed single-family residence is located within the Hillside Overlay District which requires approval of a Hillside Design Review. The Planning Director may approve a Hillside PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 11-33 DRC2011-00013 - NICHOLAS MITSOS July 13, 2011 Page 2 Design Review when grading is limited to cut/fill totals below 5 vertical feet and 1,500 cubic yards. Above this limitation, approval is required by the Planning Commission. In this case, the project proposes approximately 6 feet of cut and approximately 6 feet of fill, as well as a combined total of 2,400 cubic yards of excavation and fill; and g. The project was reviewed by the Design, Grading, and Technical Review Committees on May 31, 2011. They recommended approval by the Planning Commission as presented. The Design Review Committee recommended approval of the project as proposed,with the inclusion of the two faux chimneys. The Committee indicated that the two faux chimneys substantially add to the architecture style, and their removal would require review by the Committee; and h. The proposed residential use is consistent with the type of surrounding development within the Deer Creek Housing Tract,which is in compliance with General Plan Policy LU-2.4 as complimentary infill development is encouraged. 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 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. The Planning Department staff has determined that the project is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines. The project qualifies under the Class 3 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15303 (New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures)because the proposed project involves the construction of a single-family residence. In addition, there is no substantial evidence that the project may have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Planning Department's determination of exemption, and based on its own independent judgment, concurs in the staffs determination of exemption. 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. Planning Department 1) Approval is for the development a 6,776 square foot single-family residence with an attached 1,175 square foot 3-car garage and 1,256 square feet of porch, patio and loggia area on a 44,301 square foot lot located at 10897 Deer Creek Drive -APN: 1074-471-30.
