A. Recitals.
1. Home and Land LLC filed an application for the approval of Tentative Tract Map No.
SUBTT16510, as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution,the subject
Tentative Tract Map request is referred to as "the application."
2. On the 11th day of April 2012, 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 public hearing on April 11, 2012, including written and oral staff reports, together with
public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. The application applies to 2.12 acres (gross) of vacant property located on the
north side of San Bernardino Road, west of Vineyard Avenue, a with a street frontage of
approximately 200 feet on San Bernardino Road; and
b. The property to the northwest of the subject site is contains single-family
residences and is zoned Low Residential;the property to the south is developed with a commercial
shopping center and is zoned Community Commercial; the property to the west contains the
concrete-lined, Cucamonga Creek flood control channel and is zoned Flood Control; the properties
to the east contain two single-family dwelling units and are zoned Medium; and
C. The application proposes the subdivision of air space for residential condominium
purposes; and
d. The application, in conjunction with Development Review DRC2005-00044,
proposes the development of 13 residential condominiums; and
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO.12-14

e. The condominium subdivision will allow ownership of individual units and provide a
type of housing product for a segment of the residential market.
f. The subdivision,together with the recommended conditions of approval, complies
with all minimum development standards for the City of Rancho Cucamonga.
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. That the tentative tract is within the Medium Residential District,which permits the
construction of residential condominium units, a land use consistent with the General Plan,
Development Code, and any applicable specific plans; and
b. The design or improvements of the tentative tract is consistent with the General
Plan, Development Code, and any applicable specific plans since the Medium Residential District
permits the construction of multi-family dwelling units; and
C. The 2.12 acres site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed, a
13 unit residential condominium project; and
d. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause substantial environmental
damage and avoidable injury to humans and wildlife or their habitat because the environmental
analysis includes all appropriate studies, including an air quality analysis and cultural resources
report, along with associated mitigation measures that will mitigate all potential impacts to less than
significant; and
e. The tentative tract is not likely to cause serious public health problems because the
environmental analysis for the tentative tract concludes that all environmental impacts can be
mitigated to a level of less than significant with adherence to mitigation measures contained in the
Mitigation Monitoring Checklist; and
f. The project site used to contain an unimproved right-of-way for Carnelian Street
that was determined to be no longer needed for street and highway purposes. Utility companies,
other agencies and various City departments were notified by the Engineering Division of the
proposed street vacation and were asked for comments; no objection to the vacation was received.
On January 13, 2010, the Planning Commission, by minute action, found the vacation of Carnelian
Street to be in conformance with the General Plan; and on February 17, 2010, the City Council
adopted Resolution 10-027, thereby vacating said portion of Carnelian Street; therefore all
prerequisites for the necessary street vacation for the tentative tract have occurred and the design of
the tentative tract will not 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, togetherwith all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessmentfor
the application,the Planning Commission finds that there is no substantial evidence thatthe 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:
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO.12-14
TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT16510 — HOME AND LAND LLC

Page 3
a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's local
CEQA Guidelines, the 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, the 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
upon, which the Planning Commission's decision is based is the Planning Director of the City of
Rancho Cucamonga. Those documents are available for public review in the Planning Department
of the City of Rancho Cucamonga located at 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga,
California 91730, telephone (909) 477-2750.

Project File No.: Tentative Tract Map SUBTT16510, Development Review DRC2005-00044, Minor
Exception DRC2009-00913, and Tree Removal Permit DRC2009-00914
Public Review Period Closes: April 11, 2012
Project Name: Project Applicant: Johnson Hong Home&Land LLC
Project Location (also see attached map): Located on the north side of San Bernardino Road,
west of Vineyard Avenue -APN: 0207-091-56 and 57 and 0207-101-48.
Project Description: A proposed subdivision and design review of building elevations and detailed
Site Plan for 13 residential condominium units, and a request to allow up to 8-foot wall heights for
sound attenuation purposes and 8-foot combination retaining/freestanding wall heights for grade
differential purposes for Tentative Tract Map SUBTT16510, where a maximum 6-foot wall height is
permitted, and a request to remove two trees on 2.12 acres of land in the Medium Residential
District (8-14 dwelling units per acre).
FINDING
This is to advise that the City of Rancho Cucamonga,acting as the lead agency,has conducted an
Initial Study to determine if the project may have a significant effect on the environment and is
proposing this Mitigated Negative Declaration based upon the following finding:
The Initial Study identified potentially significant effects but:
(1) Revisions in the project plans or proposals made or agreed to by the applicant before this
proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration was released for public review would avoid the
effects or mitigate the effects to a point where clearly no significant effects would occur, and
(2) There is no substantial evidence before the agency that the project, as revised, may have a
significant effect on the environment.
If adopted,the Mitigated Negative Declaration means that an Environmental Impact Report will not
be required. The factual and analytical basis for this finding is included in the attached Initial
Study. The project file and all related documents are available for review at the City of Rancho
Cucamonga Planning Department at 10500 Civic Center Drive (909) 477-2750 or Fax
(909) 477-2847.
