CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA
TENTATIVE TRACT 14475
COMPREHENSIVE MITIGATION IMPLEMENTATION AND MONITORING PLAN
September 1992
PURPOSE
This document provides a complete listing of all mitigation measures recommended for adoption if the
City of Rancho Cucamonga approves the proposed Tentative Tract 14475. For each measure, this
Monitoring Plan also identifies the agency(or agencies)responsible for implementation, and designates
the project phase during which each measure is to be implemented. The format and content of this
Mitigation Plan comply with State Public Resources Code Section 21086.6, which requires Lead
Agencies to monitor and report on the implementation of adopted mitigation measures.
ADOPTION OF MITIGATION MEASURES
As part of its deliberations concerning the proposed TT 14475 project, the Planning Commission of
the City of Rancho Cucamonga will be required to consider adoption of mitigation measures. If the
Planning Commission approves the project, it will be necessary for the City to specify which of these
measures are to be formally incorporated into the project. The current Mitigation Implementation and
Monitoring Plan contains all measures recommended as of 14 September 1992.
The mitigations itemized in this section include measures described in the Draft Subsequent EIR for
TT 14475, as well as measures developed in response to comments on the Draft EIR and later during
public hearings on the Final MR. A total of 60 measures are suggested, covering a wide variety of
subjects that range from fire safety to biological resource protection.
MONITORING AND REPORTING
Upon project approval, the City of Rancho Cucamonga will be responsible for ensuring that adopted
mitigation measures are actually implemented during project design and construction, as well as
subsequent operation and maintenance. City staff will be responsible for ensuring that mitigations are
enforced and will also be responsible for reporting to the Planning Commission regarding progress
in implementing these measures. Reports shall be made as often as needed, but no less than annually
until all measures are complete. The Planning Commission will be responsible for adopting the
mitigation implementation and monitoring plan, considering the reports and determining the adequacy
of the implementation effort.
DEED RESTRICTIONS
Note that this Mitigation Program contains requirements for deed restrictions. The restrictions address
three subjects, including the status of Big Tree Road as a public access into the National Forest;
notification of site inclusion in an area of high-to-extreme fire hazard; and restrictions on residents'
household pets and use of off-road vehicles to protect the Cucamonga Canyon Wash.
