SPECIFIC PLAN DRC2008-00940 AND TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT16925- MILLER DEVELOPMENT CO.—
A review of the Specific Plan and Tentative Tract Map and Conceptual Grading Plan for the Carrari
Ranch project (the proposed subdivision of approximately 74 acres for 107 single-family lots generally,
located north of the City boundary, north of Delphin Place and west of Archibald Avenue in the City's

Design Review Committee Action:
The staff itemized a large number of areas of conflict in the design of the tract and the specific plan with
the current City development standards which the applicant has been unwilling to change. The
Committee discussed the possibility of recommending denial of the tract map and the specific plan, but
requested staff to notify the applicant that it was continuing the discussion of this project submittal to the
June 19, 2012, meeting to allow the applicant one more opportunity to discuss the project proposal with
the Committee before forwarding a final recommendation to the Planning Commission. Specifically, the
project has the following issues:
• The Tentative Tract Map, Conceptual Grading Plan, and the Carrari Ranch Specific Plan do not
meet the intent of the General Plan, Hillside Grading Standards, Hillside Grading Ordinance, and
the Design Guidelines.
• The applicant has not submitted copies of easement agreements for all off-site improvements. This
includes all grading easements along the west property line for the construction of the primary
access road and along the emergency access road through Thorpe Canyon. Additionally, this
Includes easement agreements to maintain all off-site Fuel Modification zones for the project(along
the east and west property line and along access roads).
• There are outstanding issues related to the private sewer pump station for Lots 37 thru 51. Both
the City and the Cucamonga Valley Water District (CVWD) has not accepted the proposal as
submitted. This outstanding condition must be addressed and submitted for approval to both the
CVWD and the Building and Safety Services Department.
• The Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) has not been accepted as complete. The WQMP
still has many outstanding corrections that if amended could affect the project and the special
studies that were analyzed in the Draft EIR.
• Additionally, there are outstanding corrections with the driveway locations and grades and on-site
drainage.
The Committee continued the item to the June 19, 2012, meeting to allow the applicant one more
opportunity to discuss the project proposal with the Committee.
