ENVIRONMENT/U_ ASSESSMENT AND DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 86-36 - GENERAL DYN/U4ICS
- The development of Phase II construction of an approved master plan on
75 acres of land. Phase II consisting of a 380,000 square foot
industrial/warehouse building in the General Industrial District
(Subarea 11) located on the south side of 6th Street between Utica and
Cleveland Avenues - APN: 210-081-8, 9 and 10.
Design Parameters
The conceptual master plan includes two single story warehouse/
industrial buildings and two multi story office buildings. The
industrial building to the south and the office building to the east are
now existing. The request at this time is for development of a second
industrial building (north-westerly portion of the site). The entire
length of Cleveland is now complete. Remaining improvements on 6th
Street and Utica Avenue are intented to be completed with this phase.
Staff Comments
Site Plan:
1. The existing field measurement area is intended to be relocated
off-site and will be reviewed under a separate Development
Review Application at a later date.
2. The master plan indicates an employee lunch area at about the
midpoint of the north side of the building. However, this area
has been slightly altered oy Phase II design, the applicant
should indicate another location where a lunch area can be
developed.
3. The proposed Phase II site plan is consistent with the approved
conceptual master plan.
Architecture:
1. The north elevation of tile building faces 6th Street which is a
designated special boulevard. The north side of the building
is the truck access and loading area. The loading area is
completely screened Dy a block wall which is 13 to 17 feet in
height, while the north wall of the storage building has been
softened with landscaped berming against the wall.
Does the north elevation portray the desired special boulevard
image?
2. The architecture is consistent with the master plan and a
recently completed office building (Phase I).

3. The proposed elevation does not indicate if the roof mounted
equipment could be screened by the parapet wall. All roof
mounted and/or roof projections should be screened on all sides
by the parapet wall or by an architecturally designed
enclosure.
Landscaping:
1. The conceptual landscape plan must be approved as part of the
master plan. The major consideration is along the north
building face and the 6th Street setback, since the
architecture is fairly simple along this elevation, perhaps the
opportunity exists for the landscape treatment to provide the
special boulevard prominance desired.
Design Review Committee Action
Members Present: Brad Buller, Dan Coleman and Larry McNiel
Staff Planner: Debra Meier
The Committee recommends approval of phase two with the foll owing
considerations:
1. The employee lunch area has been relocated to the south side of
the building where it is sheltered from prevailing winds.
2. The applicant indicated that all air conditioning equipment
will be installed inside the building, timerefore the problem of
roof mounted equipment screening is virtually eliminated,
except for such items as vens and skylights which should also
be screened from view.
3. The landscape treabnent along Sixth Street, the north building
elevation, and along the driveway entrance from Sixth Street,
should be intensified to provide the degree of prominence
desired along a special Boulevard.

DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS
6:30 - 7:00 Debra December 18, 1986
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 86-38 - BARTON The
'~evelopment of 1 multi-tenant industrial buildings totaling 107,568
square feet in the General Industrial District (Subarea 8) located on
the north side of Jersey Boulevard approximately 350 feet east of Utica
Avenue - APN: 209-142-19, 20, and 21.
Design Par~ters
The site is presently vacant, the only existing improvements being curb
and gutter along Jersey Boulevard. The property slopes from north to
south at an overall rate of about 2 percent. To the east and north of
the subject site is the approved Rancho Cucamonga Business Park II,
consisting of seven phases. Phase I abutts this project directly
east. On the south side of Jersey Boulevard are existing industrial
uses. Directly west is a recently approved industrial project as well
as other existing industrial uses.
Staff Comments
Site Plan:
1. Do the plazas located within landscape setback area and the
rear property lines meet the intent of a centrally located
plaza element? This is a single lot, multi-tenant development,
where pedestrian circulation throughout the project connecting
buildings to pedestrian open spaces (centralized plaza area)
would be desirable.
2. Provide connections between street adjacent sidewalks and
interior pedestrian circulation.
Architecture:
1. Complete screening of any roof mounted equipment should be
accomplished by use of architectural features as an integral
part of building design.
Landscaping:
1. Make use of landscaped finger islands, particularly along
property lines and between buildings four and five, for the
provision of ample parking area shade trees as required.
Design Review Committee Action
Members Present: Brad Bullet, Dan Coleman and Larry McNiel
Staff Planner: Debra Meier
The Committee recommends approval of the project with the following
considerations:
1. The plaza areas in the corners of the project are acceptable,
however, the Committee recommends the addition of textured
pavement leading to the plazas as illustrated on the attached
exhibit.
2. Pedestrian connections should be provided from the street
adjacent sidewalks to the plaza areas near the street right-of-
way and the office areas fronting Jersey.
3. The applicant indicated that all roof mounted equipment will be
completely screened by the parapet wall.
4. Staff will further investigate the requirement for perimeter
landscaping to determine if the flexibility exists to cluster
landscaping at critical nodes rather than spreading it out over
the five foot perimeter strips.

MINOR DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 86-34 - CARL KARCHER ENTERPRISES - The proposed
addition of a back-lit awning and a change of color and materials to a
existing Carls Jr. in the Neighborhood Commercial Oistrict (NC) located
at the northeast corner of 19th Street and Archibald Avenue - APN: 202-
171-52.
Oesign Parameters
The project is located in the Alta Loma Square. The owner is in the
process of submitting upgrading revisions for the center to the City
which will include green awnings and alluvial rock. The center will
remain a tan color. The Carls dr. is presently a tan brick with red
tile roof.
Staff Coaments
1. The proposal calls for the brick of the Carls dr. to be painted
a creamy pastel yellow with red accents. The roof tiles would
remain their original color, however, the trim cap and facia
would adopt the new colors. Staff determines that the color
changes are completely incomparable with the existing center
and with the proposed upgraded colors and materials for Aita
Loma Square.
2. The addition of the back-lit awning is incompatible with the
existing and proposed center's theme.
Oesign Review Cmittee Action
Members Present: Larry McNiel, Brad Bullet and Dan Coleman
Staff Planner: Chris Westman
The applicant was directed by the Committee to coordinate color and
design schemes with staff and the shopping center owner in order to
achieve a more compatable "theme" for Carl's Jr. within the center. The
yellow awning was unanimously denied, however the Committee felt that
the other proposed changes to the building could be negotiated. The
project will be reviewed again at the next convenient Design Review
Meeting.
