A. Recitals.
1. Fountainhead Development filed an application for the approval of Tentative Parcel Map
SUBTPM19433, 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 23rd day of October 2013, 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 October 23, 2013, including written and oral staff reports,
together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. The project area is located on an 11.18-acre parcel located at
11884 Foothill Boulevard within an existing shopping center within the Community Commercial(CC)
District of the Terra Vista Community Plan at the northwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and
Rochester Avenue; and
b. The property to the north of the subject site contains single-family residences and is
within the Low Medium (LM) Residential District within the Terra Vista Community Plan;the property
to the south consists of commercial retail buildings and is within the Community Commercial (CC)
District within the Terra Vista Community Plan; the property to the east contains a retail commercial
center within the Community Commercial (CC) District as well as single-family residences within the
Low Residential (L) District; and the property to the west is vacant land within the Community

d. Section 17.36 (Table 17.36.030-1) of the Development Code states that parcels
created within shopping centers are exempt from minimum lot area, lot width, and lot depth
requirements. Therefore, since the subdivision takes place within an existing shopping center, the
proposed Tentative Parcel Map is in compliance with this requirement; and
e. The proposed subdivision is in connection with the proposed development of a
4,994 square foot building on the newly created .47-acre parcel. The development will provide
sufficient parking and landscaping per the requirements indicated in the Development Code.
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 parcel map is consistent with the General Plan, Development
Code, and Terra Vista Community Plan, which allow for the subdivision of land in conjunction with
proposed development; and
b. The design or improvements of the subdivision is consistent with the General Plan,
Development Code, and Terra Vista Community Plan. Section 17.36 (Table 17.36.030-1) of the
Development Code states that parcels created within shopping centers are exempt from minimum
lot area, lot width, and lot depth requirements. Therefore, since the subdivision takes place within
an existing shopping center, the proposed tentative parcel map is in compliance with this
requirement; and
C. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed. The proposed
subdivision is in connection with the proposed development of a 4,994 square foot building on the
subject .47-acre parcel. The development will provide sufficient parking and landscaping, per the
requirements indicated in the Development Code; and
d. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause substantial environmental
damage, avoidable injury to humans and wildlife or their habitat,and serious public health problems.
The existing site has already been developed in accordance with a previously approved project.
Furthermore, this subdivision along with the proposed development is consistent with the establish
surrounding development; and
e. The design of the tentative parcel map 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. 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 15 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines
Section 15315 (Minor Land Divisions) because the project consists of the division of commercial
property into four or fewer parcels, it conforms with the General Plan and zoning, no variances or
exceptions are required. 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.
