May 29, 1991 Page 2 developed with a commercial plant nursery. The property to the southeast is designated freeway and is developed with the Ontario (I-15) Freeway. The property to the west is designated Low Medium Residential and is underdeveloped with a single family residence. (c) This amendment may conflict with the Land Use Policies of the General Plan and may not provide for development, within the district, in a manner consistent with the General Plan and with related development; and (d) This amendment may not promote the goals and objectives of the Land Use Element; and (e) This amendment would not be materially injurious or detrimental to the adjacent properties and would not have a significant impact on the environment nor on the surrounding properties, but land use incompatibilities may result. 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 properties located in Subarea 6 of the application are not suitable for the uses permitted in the proposed district and are incompatible with existing and surrounding land use designations as evidenced by the site's being bordered on the southwest by a freeway on-ramp and on the north by a major arterial road and freeway off-ramp intersection; and (b) That the proposed amendment would not have significant impacts on the environment nor on the surrounding properties as evidenced by the findings and conclusions listed in Parts I and II of the Initial Environmental Study but that land use incompatibilities may result; and (c) That the proposed amendment may not be in conformance with the General Plan due to the potential of establishing incompatible land use relationships with single family uses and significant vehicle traffic activities. 4. This Commission hereby finds that the project has been reviewed and considered in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 and, further, this Commission does not recommend issuance of a Negative Declaration because the land use change may not promote the goals and objectives of the General Plan. 5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above, this Commission hereby resolves that pursuant to Section 65850 to 65855 of the California Government Code, that on the 29th day of May 1991, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga hereby recommends denial of General Plan Amendment No. 91-02B, Subarea 6.
