Bloom, Deputy City Manager/Economic & Community Development By: Jennifer Nakamura, Associate Planner Subject: UPDATE ON DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENT DRC2012-00156 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission receive and file this report. BACKGROUND: On November 28, 2012, the Planning Commission approved Resolution 12-47, recommending approval of supplementary amendments to the Development Code. One of the purposes for the proposed amendments was to reinstate development standards that were unintentionally omitted from the Code. Prior to the City Council hearing on December 19, 2012, staff discovered a development standard that was unintentionally omitted from the Code relative to setbacks for pools and was not included in the Planning Commission report. Exhibit A details the actual text changes. This standard was in the previous Development Code and was not intended to be altered as part of the Development Code Update. • On December 19, 2012, staff presented this change to the City Council with the other amendments to the Development Code that were recommended by the Planning Commission. The Council approved all of the amendments, including Exhibit A, unanimously. Respectfully submitted, Je ey A.

On April 14, 2004, a Mitigated Negative Declaration was adopted by the Planning Commission for Conditional Use Permit DRC2003-00048 (Phase 1). The California Environmental Quality Act provides that no further environmental review or Negative Declaration is required for subsequent projects or minor revisions to projects within the scope of a previous Negative Declaration (Section 15162). RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Planning Commission approve Development Review DRC2012-00616 and Conditional Use Permit DRC2012-00618 by adoption of the attached Resolutions of Approval with Conditions. BACKGROUND: On April 14, 2004, the Planning Commission approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP) DRC2003-00048, a master plan for a recreational and boat storage facility on 9.87 acres of land at the intersection of the eastbound 210 Freeway and 1-15 Freeway interchange, north of • Victoria Street. At the time the Planning Commission approved CUP DRC2003-00048, the entitlement was specifically limited to approval of Phase I, with Phase 11 only being indicated as a conceptual layout for future development of the site. Phase I approval consists of 165 covered storage spaces, 278 open spaces, a 1,200 square foot office and caretaker residence and an 1,800 Items B & C s: PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2012-00616 AND DRC2012-00618 —CHARLES JOSEPH ASSOCIATES January 9, 2013 Page 2 • square foot detail area for recreational vehicles and boats. On September 24, 2008, the Planning Commission approved Conditional Use Permit DRC2008-00204; Phase II of the project. Phase II consists of 393 self-storage units that will vary in square footage. Phase I construction was recently completed, and construction on Phase II has not started because of current market conditions being soft. The applicant is currently analyzing his business plan for Phase II and may alter the self- storage facility in the future. PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: A. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning: North - 210 Freeway and 1-15 Freeway Interchange South - Future Phase 11; Open Space District (Etiwanda Specific Plan) East - 1-15 Freeway West - Etiwanda Creek/San Sevaine Flood Control Channel and Victoria Street Retention Basin; Open Space (Etiwanda Specific Plan) B. General Plan Designations: Project Site - Low Residential, (2-4 dwelling units per acre) North - 210 Freeway and 1-15 Freeway Interchange South - Open Space/Flood Control East - 1-15 Freeway West - Low Residential, (2-4 dwelling units per acre) C. Site Characteristics: The Victoria RV and Boat Storage Facility is located at the confluence of • the eastbound 210 Freeway and southbound 1-15 Freeways. Immediately to the south is the future, master-planned Phase 11 of the project. To the west, across the San Sevaine Drainage Channel, is the Victoria Street Basin, and to the east is the 1-15 Freeway. Approximately 250 feet northwest of the project site, across the flood control channel, are single-family dwelling units. Access to the 3.6-acre parcel is from Victoria Street just west of the 1-15 Freeway overpass, via a recently installed concrete-paved maintenance road for the flood control channel and a new steel access bridge that will accommodate Recreational Vehicles. The applicant has an agreement with the San Bernardino County Flood Control District to use the maintenance road. ANALYSIS: A. General: The applicant is proposing the following revisions to the previously approved Phase 1: 1) add covered parking to the open RV parking stalls with roof-mounted solar panels; 2) modify existing Buildings A, H, and J to include roof-mounted solar panels, and 3) add 12 uncovered recreational vehicle parking stalls. The applicant has designed the ends of the covered parking to be architecturally integrated into the building design. Because of the falling elevation of the eastbound 210 Freeway to the southbound 1-15 Freeway ramp, the covered parking canopies will be only slightly visible to vehicles. The solar panels will be mounted parallel to the roof plane, thereby being only moderately visible to motorists (see cross sections on Sheet C-4). Based upon information supplied by the applicant, the solar panels will produce enough annual energy to the electrical grid to energize approximately 150 homes. B. Land Use Compatibility: The premise of all Conditional Use Permits is to ensure the • compatibility of adjacent uses and separation of potential nuisance activities. Land uses surrounding the existing facility consist of the 1-15 to the east, 210 Freeway to the north, Open B & C- 2 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2012-00616 AND DRC2012-00618 — CHARLES JOSEPH ASSOCIATES January 9, 2013 • Page 3 Space District to the south, and to the west is the Etiwanda Creek/San Sevaine drainage channel. The applicant recently completed Phase I of the project. With the completion of Phase I, the acoustic impacts on the single-family neighborhood to the west beyond the Etiwanda Creek/San Sevaine drainage channel have been dramatically lessened, a desirable environmental benefit. The proposed canopies will be located in the core of the site and the solar panels will be mounted parallel to the roof plane. Because of the site planning and screening provided by the perimeter buildings, the addition of RV parking canopies, roof-mounted solar panels and 12 open stalls will not cause an adverse impact on the single-family residences west of the project site. C. Parking: The addition of the parking canopies, solar panels, and 12 open RV parking stalls will not generate any off-street parking requirements. D. Noise. Odor and Vibration: The proposed solar panel use will not create any noise, odor or vibration. Mounting the solar panels parallel to the roof plane will minimize any potential impacts from glare. E. Grading Review Committee: The project was reviewed by the Grading Committee on December 4, 2012. No issues were identified and the Committee recommended approval. • F. Design Review Committee: The project was reviewed on December 4, 2012, by the Design Review Committee (Fletcher and Oaxaca). At the meeting, the Committee reviewed the project and recommended approval. G. Technical Review Committee: The Technical Review Committee reviewed the project on December 4, 2012, and recommended approval subject to the Standard Conditions outlined in the attached Resolution of Approval. H. Environmental Assessment: Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the City adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration on April 14, 2004, in connection with the City's approval of Conditional Use Permit DRC2003- 00048. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, no subsequent or supplemental EIR or Negative Declaration is required in connection with subsequent discretionary approvals of the same project unless: (i) substantial changes are proposed to the project that indicate new or more severe impacts on the environment; (ii) substantial changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the project was previously reviewed that indicates new or more severe environmental impacts; or (iii) new important information shows the project will have new or more severe impacts than previously considered; or (iv) additional mitigation measures are now feasible to reduce impacts or different mitigation measures can be imposed to substantially reduce impacts. Staff has evaluated Development Review DRC2012-00616 and Conditional Use Permit DRC2012-00618 and concludes that substantial changes to the project or the circumstances surrounding the project have not occurred which would create new or more severe impacts than those evaluated in the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration. Development Review DRC2012-00618 and Conditional Use Permit DRC2012- • 00618 contemplate the addition of parking canopies, roof-mounted solar panels that are substantially parallel to the roof plane and 12 open RV parking stalls. The addition of parking canopies and solar panels will not intensify the operational characteristics of the RV parking storage facility or create nuisance impacts, such as intense glare. The solar panels will be 9 & C- 3 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2012-00616 AND DRC2012-00618 — CHARLES JOSEPH ASSOCIATES January 9, 2013 Page 4 • oriented to the south and will have a matte finish, thereby mitigating impacts from glare. Additionally, the parking canopies with solar panels will capture enough solar energy to contribute to the electrical grid, thereby capitalizing on a renewable energy source and lessening the impacts to the environment and non-renewable energy resources. Staff also finds that this modification will have a negligible impact on the operational characteristics since the additional solar panels and 12 open parking stalls will not intensify the operational characteristics (traffic, noise, vibration) of the RV storage facility. Staff further finds that the project will not have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration, nor have more severe effects than previously analyzed, and that additional or different mitigation measures are not required to reduce the impacts of the project to a level of less than significant. Based on the reasons noted above, the addition of covered parking, solar panels, and 12 open stalls does not change the scope in a manner that merits further environmental review. Therefore, pursuant to CEQA, staff recommends that the Planning Commission concur with the staff determination that no additional environmental review is required in connection with the City's consideration of Development Review DRC2012-00616 and Conditional Use Permit DRC2012-00618.

On April 14, 2004, a Mitigated Negative Declaration was adopted by the Planning Commission for Conditional Use Permit DRC2003-00048 (Phase 1). The California Environmental Quality Act provides that no further environmental review or Negative Declaration is required for subsequent projects or minor revisions to projects within the scope of a previous Negative Declaration (Section 15162). CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT DRC2012-00618-CHARLES JOSEPH ASSOCIATES-A request to modify the conditions of approval for Conditional Use Permit DRC2003-00048 to permit changes to the Site Plan, modifications to Buildings A, H, and J to include roof-mounted solar panels, and covered recreational vehicle parking canopies with roof-mounted solar panels for Phase I for a previously approved recreational vehicle storage facility on 9.87 acres of land in the Low Residential District (2-4 dwelling units per acre) within the Etiwanda Specific Plan, located at the southwest corner of the eastbound 1-210 Freeway and the southbound 1-15 Freeway interchange at 13670 Victoria Street-APN: 0228-011-31. Related files: Conditional Use Permit DRC2003-00048, • Conditional Use Permit DRC2008-00204, and Development Review DRC2012-00616. On April 14, 2004, a Mitigated Negative Declaration was adopted by the Planning Commission for Conditional Use Permit DRC2003-00048 (Phase 1). The California Environmental Quality Act provides that no further environmental review or Negative Declaration is required for subsequent projects or minor revisions to projects within the scope of a previous Negative Declaration (Section 15162). Project Background: On April 14, 2004, the Planning Commission approved Conditional Use Permit (CUP) DRC2003-00048, a master plan for a recreational and boat storage facility on 9.87 acres of land at the intersection of the eastbound 210 Freeway and 1-15 Freeway interchange, north of Victoria Street. At the time the Planning Commission approved CUP DRC2003-00048, the entitlement was specifically limited to approval of Phase I, with only Phase II being indicated as a conceptual layout for future development of the site. Phase I approval consisted of 165 covered storage spaces, 278 open spaces, a 1,200 square foot office and caretaker residence and a 1,800 square foot detail area for recreational vehicles and boats. On September 24, 2008, the Planning Commission approved Conditional Use Permit DRC2008-00204, Phase II of the project. Phase II consists of 393 self-storage units that will vary in square footage. Phase I construction was recently completed, and construction on Phase II has not started because of current market conditions being soft. Additionally, the applicant is currently analyzing his business plan for Phase II and may alter the self-storage facility in the future. Project Surroundings: Immediately to the south of the project site is the 1-15 Freeway, and to the north is the 1-210 Freeway. To the southwest, across the San Sevaine Drainage Channel, is the Victoria Street Basin, and to east is the 1-15 Freeway. Approximately 200 feet west and northwest of the project site, across the flood control channel, are single-family dwelling units. Access to the 3.6-acre parcel is from Victoria Street via an access road,just west of the 1-15 Freeway overpass. �XHIBIT G B & C- 11 DRC ACTION AGENDA DRC2012-00616 AND DRC2012-00618 — CHARLES JOSEPH ASSOCIATES December 4, 2012 Page 2 • Design Parameters: The applicant is proposing the following revisions to the previously approved Phase I: 1) add covered parking to the open RV parking stalls with roof-mounted solar panels; 2) modify existing Buildings A, H, and J to include roof-mounted solar panels, and 3) add 12 recreational, uncovered vehicle parking stalls. The applicant has designed the ends of the covered parking to be architecturally integrated into the building design. Because of the falling elevation of the 1-210 eastbound Freeway to the 1-15 southbound Freeway ramp, the covered parking canopies will be only slightly visible to vehicles. The solar panels will be mounted parallel to the roof plane, thereby being only moderately visible to motorists (see cross sections on Sheet C-4). The solar panels will produce enough annual energy to contribute to the electrical grid, contributing over 5.2 million kWhr, or enough energy for approximately 529 homes. Staff Comments: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion. Major Issues: The following broad design issues will be the focus of Committee discussion regarding this project. 1. As noted above, the architect applicant has designed the ends of the covered parking to be architecturally integrated into the building design. Staff finds that covered parking canopies and the roof-mounted solar panels will be an architectural and environmental enhancement to the project; accordingly, there are no Major Issues. Secondary Issues: Once all of the major issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the • Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues. 1. There are no Secondary Issues. Policy Issues: The following items are a matter of Planning Commission policy and should be incorporated into the project design without discussion. 1. Signs are not permitted on the solar panels or canopies. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Design Review Committee review the proposed project and recommend approval to the Planning Commission. Design Review Committee Action: The Committee approved the project as presented.

The design of the parking canopies will blend with the existing buildings; and e. The solar panels will be mounted parallel to the roof plane on existing buildings, thereby minimizing any potential impacts from glare; and f. The installation of solar panels will be an environmental benefit, reducing energy consumption by capturing energy from a renewable source, contributing energyto the electrical grid and reducing the consumption of green house gases, all of which are desirable benefits; and g. The installation of parking canopies, solar panels and 12 additional recreational vehicle parking stalls will be of negligible impact on the operational characteristics of the recreational vehicle storage facility as reviewed and approved under Conditional Use Permit DRC2003-00048; and h. Related case file Conditional Use Permit DRC2012-00618 pertains to the request for the modification of Conditional DRC2003-00048 for site plan changes and modifications to the building to permit additional recreational vehicle parking stalls, parking canopies and roof-mounted solar panels. 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above- referenced meeting and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2 above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows: a. The proposed project is consistent with the objectives of the General Plan; and • b. The proposed use is in accord with the objectives of the Development Code and the purposes of the district in which the site is located; and C. The proposed use is in compliance with each of the applicable provisions of the Development Code; and d. The proposed use, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. 4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the application, together with all written and oral reports included forthe environmental assessment for the application,the Planning Commission finds that no subsequent or supplemental environmental document is required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in connection with the review and approval of this application based upon the following findings and determinations: a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act("CEQA")and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the City adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration on April 14, 2004, in connection with the City's approval of Conditional Use Permit DRC2003-00048. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, no subsequent or supplemental EIR or Negative Declaration is required in connection with subsequent discretionary approvals of the same project unless: (i) substantial changes are proposed to the project that indicate new or more severe impacts on the environment; (ii)substantial changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the project was previously • reviewed that indicates new or more severe environmental impacts;or(iii)new important information shows the project will have new or more severe impacts than previously considered; or (iv) B & C- 14 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO.13-01 DRC2012-00616 - CHARLES JOSEPH ASSOCIATES January 9, 2013 Page 3 • additional mitigation measures are now feasible to reduce impacts or different mitigation measures can be imposed to substantially reduce impacts; and b. The Planning Commission finds that substantial changes to the project or the circumstances surrounding the project have not occurred which would create new or more severe impacts than those evaluated in the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration. Development Review DRC2012-00616 pertains to the request for the addition of parking canopies, roof-mounted solar panels that are substantially parallel to the roof plane, and 12 open RV parking stalls. The addition of parking canopies and solar panels will not intensify the operational characteristics of the RV parking storage facility or create nuisance impacts, such as intense glare. The solar panels will be oriented to the south and will have a matte finish, thereby mitigating impacts from glare. Additionally,the parking canopies with solar panels will capture enough solar energy to contribute to the electrical grid, thereby capitalizing on a renewable energy source and lessening the impacts to the environment and non-renewable energy resources. Staff also finds that this modification will have a negligible impact on the operational characteristics since the addition of solar panels and 12 open parking stalls will not intensify the operational characteristics(traffic, noise,vibration) of the RV storage facility. Staff further finds that the project will not have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration, nor have more severe effects than previously analyzed, and that additional or different mitigation measures are not required to reduce the impacts of the project to a level of less than significant. Based on the reasons noted above, the addition of covered parking, solar panels, and 12 open stalls does not change the scope in a manner that merits further environmental review; and • C. Based on these findings and all evidence in the record,the Planning Commission concurs with the staff determination that no additional environmental review is required pursuant to CEQA in connection with the City's consideration of Development Review DRC2012-00616. 5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above, this Commission hereby approves the application subject to each and every condition set forth below and in the Standard Conditions, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

A. Recitals. 1. Charles Joseph Associates filed an application for the issuance of Conditional Use Permit DRC2012-00618, as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the subject Conditional Use Permit request is referred to as "the application." 2. On the 9th day January 2013, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a 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 January 9, 2013, including written and oral staff reports,together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application applies to a 9.87 acre property developed under Conditional Use Permit DRC2003-00048 for Phase I of a recreational storage facility located at the southwest comer of the eastbound 1-210 and southbound 1-15 Freeway interchange. Access to the recreational vehicle and self-storage facility is from an access and maintenance road off Victoria Street; and b. Phase I is part of a master-planned recreational vehicle and self-storage project, previously approved under Conditional Use Permit DRC2003-00048 on April 14, 2004, by the Planning Commission at a public hearing; and C. The property to the north consists of the 210 Freeway;to the south is Future Phase II/Open Land District; the east consists of the 1-15 Freeway; and to the west is the Etiwanda • Creek/Sevaine Drain Channel and the Victoria Street Retention Basin; and B & C- 27 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 13-02 DRC2012-00618 — CHARLES JOSEPH ASSOCIATES January 9, 2013 Page 2 d. Conditional Use Permit DRC2012-00618 pertains to a request for minor site • alterations consisting of 12 additional open recreational vehicle parking stalls, the installation of parking canopies to provide covered parking and solar panels that will be mounted parallel to the roof plane; and e. The solar panel improvements contemplated in this application will provide for reduced energy consumption and contributions to the electrical power grid, a desirable environmental and energy goal; and f. The installation of the parking stalls, parking canopies and solar panels are designed in a manner that will be of minimal visibility to motorists on the 1-15 Freeway and 210 Freeway Interchange because of the differences in grade between the facility and the eastbound 1-210 to the southbound 1-15 connector ramp; and g. The architecture of the proposed parking canopies will compliment the existing storage buildings. 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. The proposed use is in accord with the General Plan, the objectives of the Development Code, and the purposes of the district in which the site is located; and b. The proposed use, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be • detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity; and c. The proposed use complies with each of the applicable provisions of the Development Code. 4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the application, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application,the Planning Commission finds that no subsequent or supplemental environmental document is required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in connection with the review and approval of this application based upon the following findings and determinations: a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act("CEQA")and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the City adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration on April 14, 2004 in connection with the City's approval of Conditional Use Permit DRC2003-00048. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, no subsequent or supplemental EIR or Negative Declaration is required in connection with subsequent discretionary approvals of the same project unless: (i) substantial changes are proposed to the project that indicate new or more severe impacts on the environment; (ii)substantial changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the project was previously reviewed that indicates new or more severe environmental impacts; or(iii)new important information shows the project will have new or more severe impacts than previously considered; or (iv) additional mitigation measures are now feasible to reduce impacts or different mitigation measures can be imposed to substantially reduce impacts; and b. The Planning Commission finds that substantial changes to the project or the • circumstances surrounding the project have not occurred which would create new or more severe impacts than those evaluated in the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration. Conditional Use B & C- 28 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 13-02 DRC2012-00618 — CHARLES JOSEPH ASSOCIATES January 9, 2013 Page 3 • Permit RC2012-00618 pertains to the request for the addition of parking canopies, roof-mounted solar panels that are substantially parallel to the roof plane, and 12 open RV parking stalls. The addition of parking canopies and solar panels will not intensify the operational characteristics of the RV parking storage facility or create nuisance impacts, such as intense glare. The solar panels will be oriented to the south and will have a matte finish, thereby mitigating impacts from glare. Additionally, the parking canopies with solar panels will capture enough solar energy to contribute to the electrical grid, thereby capitalizing on a renewable energy source and lessening the impacts to the environment and non-renewable energy resources. Staff also finds that this modification will have a negligible impact on the operational characteristics since the additional of solar panels and 12 open parking stalls will not intensify the operational characteristics(traffic, noise,vibration)of the RV storage facility. Staff further finds that the project will not have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration, not have more severe effects than previously analyzed, and that additional or different mitigation measures are not required to reduce the impacts of the project to a level of less than significant. Based on the reasons noted above, the addition of covered parking, solar panels and 12 open stalls does not change the scope in a manner that merits further environmental review; and C. Based on these findings and all evidence in the record, the Planning Commission concurs with the staff determination that no additional environmental review is required pursuant to CEQA in connection with the City's consideration of the Conditional Use Permit DRC2012-00618. 5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above, this Commission hereby approves the application subject to each and every condition set forth below and in the Standard Conditions, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. • Planning Department 1) Approval is for Conditional Use Permit DRC2012-00618,to modifythe conditions of approval for Conditional Use Permit DRC2003-00048 to permit changes to the Site Plan, modifications to Buildings A, H, and J to include roof-mounted solar panels, and covered recreational vehicle parking canopies with roof-mounted solar panels for Phase I of the master-planned recreational vehicle storage facility. 2) The applicant shall adhere to all conditions in Resolution 04-44 for Conditional Use Permit DRC2003-00048. 3) The site improvements and modifications to the buildings for Phase I will be developed and plan checked in accordance with plans on-file in the Planning Department as approved by the Design Review Committee on December 4, 2012 for Development Review DRC2012- 00616. 4) The solar panels shall be mounted parallel to the roof plane as shown in the plans and details on file for Development Review DRC2012- 00616. 5) Any modification or any intensification of the use beyond what is • specifically approved by Conditional Use Permit DRC2012-00616 and the Conditions of Approval shall require review and approval by the Planning Commission.

Staff also recommends that the Planning Commission adopt the attached Resolution of Approval with Conditions which recommends to the City Council final approval of General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727. BACKGROUND: The project was originally docketed for the November 28, 2012, Planning Commission hearing and was remanded at that meeting back to the Design Review Committee for further review (see DRC Comments below for more detail). Because a specified date to return to the Planning Commission was unknown, the items were re-advertised for the January 9, 2013, meeting date.following the Design Review Committee's approval to move forward. PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: A. . Project Density: 15.9 dwelling units per acre. B. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning —Terra Vista Community Plan: North - Multi-Family Development - High Residential (H) (24-30 dwelling units per acre) South - Vacant Site - Community Commercial (CC) East - Single Family Residences — Low Medium Residential (LM) (4-8 dwelling units per acre) and Medium Residential (8 -14 dwelling units per acre) • West - Senior Residences — Mixed Use (MHO) General Plan Designations: Project Site - Mixed Use North - High Residential South - Community Commercial East - Low Medium West - Mixed Use C. Site Characteristics: The 19.25-acre project site is located on the south side of Church Street between Mayten Avenue and Malaga Drive. The site slopes from north to south and is covered with non-native grasses that are routinely disturbed for weed control. There are no unique features, nor any existing structures or trees on the site. ANALYSIS: A. Proiect Overview: The applicant is requesting to develop a 306-unit market rate rental condominium project. The site is within the Medium-High Development District of the Terra Vista Community Plan and has a proposed density of 15.9 dwelling units per acre, which is at the lower end of the permitted density range of 14 to 24 dwelling units per acre. The site borders a vacant parcel of approximately 28 acres to the south which is in the approval process for the development of a 185,667 square foot Walmart retail store and a master planned commercial center. The project meets all related standards of the Terra Vista Community Plan and the Development Code with the exception for the necessity of up to 8-foot high perimeter walls (see Minor • Exception). The project does not conform to the General Plan Mixed Use land use designation.

Project Design: The project will be gated with one vehicle entrance on Malaga Drive and an emergency vehicle entrance on Mayten Avenue. The recreation building will be the main focal point at the end of the Malaga Drive vehicle entrance and will also serve as the leasing office. A pedestrian access gate will be located along each street frontage, with a prominent pedestrian entry portal at the corner of Church Street and Malaga Drive. The project is made up of six building types: four, 2-story buildings and two, 3-story buildings. The two, 3-story buildings are also paired together with a common entry portal forming a 10-unit building. All of the buildings have a Spanish architectural design theme with common design elements unifying the overall project. The entrances to the individual units will either be from a common courtyard/paseo or a pedestrian walkway, and each unit will include either a ground level patio area or an upper level deck (and in some cases both). There is an approximate 10-foot grade difference between the project site and the proposed Walmart site to the south. The Walmart Landscape Plan proposes dense landscaping on the slope to screen the commercial use from the residential use. C. Unit Breakdown: The development is made up of 306 units divided between duet homes (122 units), townhomes (112 units), and stacked flats (72 units). This includes 56, one bedroom • units (870 square feet to 1,015 square feet); 119, two bedroom units (1,248 square feet to 1,411 square feet); 118, three bedroom units (1,534 square feet to 1,986 square feet); and 13, four bedroom units (1,986 square feet). D. Recreational Amenities: The Development Code requires that projects between 300 and 399 units Provide 6 recreational amenities from an approved list. The project exceeds this requirement and was designed with recreational amenities that meet the interests of residents of all age groups. The residents will also have access to all of the recreational amenities at the Homecoming apartment community on the north side of Church Street. The proposed amenities include: 1. A 9,782 square foot recreation building that includes conference, entertainment, and theater rooms, a business center, and a fitness center. 2. An outdoor entertainment area adjacent to the recreation building that includes a pool, spa, multiple covered and uncovered gathering areas, and an outdoor kitchen area. 3. A community garden with outdoor kitchen and shade structure. 4. A dog park with observation patio and lattice shade structure. 5. A 6-foot wide walking path around the central core of the project with six exercise stations. 6. An open turf play area with lattice shade structure and an outdoor kitchen. 7. Multiple-themed courtyards that include common seating areas, fireplaces, and barbeque • units. 8. A community car wash.

General Plan Amendment: The applicant requests to amend the General Plan in order to change the land use designation from Mixed Use to Medium High Residential, in line with the Terra Vista Community Plan designation of Medium High Residential. The General Plan development designation for the project site was changed from Medium High (MH) residential to Mixed Use (MU) with the 2010 General Plan Update. As part of the 2010 update, the City identified large vacant parcels along Foothill Boulevard as potential mixed use sites in order to encourage the creation of transit oriented developments. The subject 19.25-acre site and the 28-acre parcel to the south were designated in the General Plan as Mixed Use Planning Site #8. The goal was to have the entire site developed as an integrated mixed use center with an urban village setting, including a pedestrian-friendly gridded street network, large public spaces, and surface parking located behind the buildings. The applicant recently purchased the existing residentially zoned portion of the site in order to develop a multi-family project in conformance with the Terra Vista Community Plan. They do not wish to develop an integrated mixed use project as outlined in the General Plan. The proposed layout will provide a land use buffer between the existing residential developments to the north, east, and west and the proposed commercial uses to the south. • D,E,F,&G 4 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2012-00727, SUBTT18856, DRC2012-00726, AND DRC2012-00759 = HOMECOMING V AT TERRA VISTA, LLC January 9, 2013 • Page 5 G. SB18 Tribal Consultation: California State Bill 18 requires that the City send project notification to California Indians when a project proposes a General Plan amendment. In this case, the applicant's environmental consultant (LSA Associates, Inc.) performed the SB18 notification. The Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians requested consultation with the City and with the applicant. The consultation took place on October 11, 2012, with the tribal representative recommending that the applicant enter into an agreement for the disposition of any Native American artifacts or human remains found on the site'and for an archeologist to monitor the site during the grading phase. These mitigation measures have been incorporated into the Mitigation Monitoring Checklist. H. Minor Exception: The applicant has filed a Minor Exception (DRC2012-00759) for an additional 2 feet of wall height above the maximum 6 feet permitted by the Development Code. The additional wall height is necessary because of a grade difference between the public right-of-way and the project site and to comply with the recommendations made in the Noise Impact Study. The findings of fact below support the necessary findings, which are required by the City's Development Code: 1. The proposed development is of sufficient size and is designed so as to provide a desirable environment within its own boundaries. In that without the additional wall height, the residents would be subjected to noise levels in excess of the City's noise standards. 2. The proposed development is compatible with the existing and proposed land uses in the surrounding area. In that the additional wall height as seen from the public right-of-way, will not be taller than wall heights in the surrounding area. • 3. Any exception to or deviations from the density requirements or design standards, resulting in the creation of project amenities that would not be available through strict adherence to Code provision. In that it is a common feature to have property line walls around multi-family developments and to allow walls over the 6-foot height limit where on-site grades and elevated noise conditions necessitate the additional wall height. 4. Granting the Minor Exception will not adversely affect the interest of the public or interest of residents and property owners in the vicinity of the premises in question. In that the additional wall height will be most visible to the future residents of the project site and will only have 6 feet of wall height visible as seen from the public right-of-way. 5. The Minor Exception is consistent with the General Plan or any applicable specific plan or development agreement. In that the General Plan and the Terra Vista Community Plan provide flexibility to the regulations where the site conditions cannot otherwise be mitigated. 6. The exception is the minimum required in that it allows the specified improvement or development to occur, but does not provide additional development rights. In that the additional wall height is the minimum necessary to address the grade change between the project site and the public right-of way and the elevated noise conditions. I. Neighborhood Meeting: A neighborhood meeting was held on October 9, 2012. All the property owners within 660 feet of the site were invited to the meeting. No property owners attended the meeting. J. Design Review Committee: The project was reviewed by the Committee (Fletcher, Oaxaca, Granger) on October 16, 2012. Staff raised six main issues regarding the project design: Four related to building articulation, one related to carrying architectural elements to all elevations, and D,E, F,&G 5 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2012-00727, SUBTT18856, DRC2012-00726, AND DRC2012-00759 - HOMECOMING V AT TERRA VISTA, LLC January 9, 2013 Page 6 • one related to the addition of tile elements. The Committee stated that additional building articulation was unnecessary and recommended that the applicant provide additional architectural elements to enhance the building elevations. The Committee directed the applicant to work with staff to determine when the project was ready for final Planning Commission review. Following the October 16, 2012, Design Review Committee meeting, the applicant made a number of changes to address the issues raised by the Design Review Committee and resubmitted the plans. Staff reviewed the changes and indicated to the applicant that the project was moving in the right direction and asked that a few additional changes be made. The applicant felt that the additional changes were above and beyond those raised by the Design Review Committee (DRC) and asked to meet with the Planning Director. Subsequently, staff scheduled a meeting with the Planning Director, staff planner, and the applicant. At that meeting, the applicant outlined the changes they had made and why they felt that the additional changes requested by staff would only increase construction costs and not enhance the overall tenant experience. The applicant expressed an openness to discuss staffs comments but was insistent that any changes made be in highly visible areas. Staff acknowledged the applicant's position and outlined changes they felt were necessary, and their willingness to compromise was warranted. In exchange for eliminating the proposed tile elements between Buildings A and B, the applicant agreed to add a metal canopy on the street side elevation and decorative eave supports to both sides of these buildings. The applicant agreed to add a scalloped edge treatment to the garage side elevations of Building C in exchange for eliminating the wood supports in the areas between the pop-outs on Buildings C and D. The applicant also agreed to add decorative eave overhangs on the rear elevation of Building E and to • the side elevations of Building F. With these changes, staff concluded the project was ready for Planning Commission Review. The project was reviewed by the Design Review Committee at their December 18, 2012, meeting. At that meeting, the Committee felt that the project was substantially complete but that additional architectural elements were needed to add color and variation to the wall planes of Buildings A, B, and F. The applicant agreed to add window shutters to these three buildings and to introduce a new decorative window sill treatment to select windows on Building F. They also agreed to explore additional enhancements where appropriate. The Committee recommended that the project go to the Planning Commission for final review with the agreed upon changes. The applicant agreed to provide updated plans to the Commissioners prior to the January 9, 2012, Planning Commission meeting. The following design changes were made after the October 16, 2012, Design Review Committee meeting in addition to what was agreed to at the December 18, 2012, Design Review Committee meeting. The applicant also provided new color exhibits depicting these changes (see Exhibit A): 1, A tile element was incorporated with the unit numbering at each unit entrance. 2. A tile element was added to either side of the entrance gates to the private courtyards along with a number of tiled niches throughout the project. 3. The half window shutter treatment was eliminated on Buildings A and B and replaced with a metal canopy. • D, E,F,&G 6 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2012-00727, SUBTT18856, DRC2012-00726, AND DRC2012-00759 - HOMECOMING V AT TERRA VISTA, LLC January 9, 2013 • Page 7 4. A scalloped edge treatment was added to half of the garage overhangs on Buildings A and B and to the garage side building overhangs on Building C. 5. Decorative wood eave supports were added to the side elevations of Buildings A and B. 6. Extended decorative eave treatments were added to the garage side elevations of Buildings E and F and to the left and right elevations of Building F. K. Grading and Technical Review Committees: The project was reviewed and approved by the Committees on October 16, 2012. L. Environmental Assessment: Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQK) and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of the project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, City staff determined that, with the imposition of mitigation measures related to aesthetics, cultural resources, hydrology and water quality, noise, air quality, greenhouse gas and geology and soils, there would be no substantial evidence that the project would have a significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, City staff provided public notice of the public comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration. A Mitigation Monitoring Program has also been prepared to ensure implementation of, and compliance with, the mitigation measures for the project. CORRESPONDENCE: This item was advertised as a public hearing in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were mailed to all property owners within a 660-foot • radius of the project site.

The Density Factor is based upon actual development that has occurred in the City and represents a level midway between 50%and 75%of the range, It is used to calculate the target number of dwelling units. This factor is only applied to vacant developable lands. A different Density Factor was applied to existing development to obtain on accurate baseline number. 2. The range of dwelling units is derived by multiplying the lower and upper threshold of density/intensity range by the number of acres, and rounded to the nearest whole number. This range represents the theoretical potential.Some development will produce densities at or near the top of the range;however,most will not. 3. Target dwelling units is the probable level of development based on historical development patterns,except for Mixed Use Residential, which is based primarily on a target density. 4. Mixed Use allows both residential and non-residential uses. 5. Open Space is generally a non-residential category that permits a very limited number of residential units on privately owned properties. Within the City, Open Space applies to the golf courses and the Pacific Electric Trail. In the northwest quadrant of the City, a few properties are designated Open Space and could yield residential units. However, any such development would be limited to a density of 0.1 units per acre(or one unit per parcel on lots less than 10 acres in size)and would be subject to the slope, drainage,flood zones, and fault zone analysis at a minimum under the Hillside Overlay Ordinance,further limiting any residential development potential. 0 0 0 Non-Rest entia ;t y Office,%0 n0-1.0 FAR) s 86 - 1,497 to 3,746 1,497 - 3,180 86 Neighborhood Commercial (0.2 r35 FAR), - 164 1,78510 2,500 1,785 3,030 164 Community Commpfpial(0.25-0 -FAR! --_ 119 - 1,292 to 1,810 1,292 1,970 119 General Commercial(0.25-0.35 FAR) 470 6,555 to 7,165 6,555 10,020 470 Subtotal 839 - 11;129 to. .a e`,kWr,1 ._-7PVT TS'W�.1.8 02 Ot n '17"J. ,839 . _ Mixed Use(025-1.0 FAR)'' 6-0 43, 88 le-26,996 ..- - 973 29,,270 626 +'2fi 613 6.363 to 25.456 11724 21808 613 A xy 7 Subtotal 613, 6636�to2 4 _ _ Asa„ yrr'F KZ X813' Indushi,d Park(0.40-0.60 FAR) 559 - 9,739 to 14,610 - 9,739 6,610 559 -Haven Overlay(0.40-1.0 FAR) 215 - 3,745 to 9,365 3.745 7,950 215 M General Industrial (0.50-0.60 FAR) 1,974 ' - 42,993 to 51,592 42,993 29,220 1,974 T Heavy Industrial(0.40-0.50 FAR) 891 - 15,52310 19,405 15,523 15,820 - 891 .._T- _. .-.__...j-ot �7 � Subtotal 3.639 - 72,000 to 94.972 72 0� 'A et tdl�p.gQ� Open Space(0.0_0111Wyl� � 'rz= 483 2.496 - _ _ 2,979 w Conservation '< .+ 353 983 - - 1,336 Flood Control!Utility Corridor 1.711 1,753 - - _ 3,464 ,,;,,Subtotal,, - 2,547 CiviciRegional (0.40-1.0 FAR) 130 - 2,265 to 5,662 2,265 1,050 130 Schools(0.10-020 FAR) 558 - 2,430 to 4,861 2,430 3,920 558 Parks.. 445 .445 Notes: 1.

Comments: a) There are no significant vistas within or adjacent to the project site. The site is not within a view corridor according to General Plan Figure LU-6. • b) The project site contains no scenic resources and no historic buildings within a State Scenic Highway. There are no State Scenic Highways within the City of Rancho Cucamonga. c) The site is located on the south side of Church Street between Mayten Avenue and Malaga Drive and is characterized by existing residential development to the east, west, and north and by a vacant parcel to the south that is the site of a proposed commercial development. The visual quality of the area will not be degraded as a result of this project because the site will be developed with a residential development that will compliment the existing residential developments in the surrounding area. Design review of the project is required prior to approval. City standards require the developer to underground existing and new utility lines and facilities to minimize unsightly appearance of overhead utility lines and utility enclosures in accordance with Planning Commission Resolution No. 87-96, unless exempted by said Resolution. d) The project would increase the number of street lights and security lighting used in the immediate vicinity. The design and placement of light fixtures will be shown on Site Plans which require review for consistency with City standards including shielding, diffusing, or the use of indirect lighting to avoid glare. The lighting will be selected and located to confine the area of illumination to within the project site.

(✓) which, due to their location or nature, could result in • conversion of Farmland, to non-agricultural use or conversion of forest land to non-forest use? Comments: a) The site is not designated as Prime Farmlands, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance. The site is located on the south side of Church Street between Mayten Avenue and Malaga Drive and is characterized by existing residential development to the east, west, and north and by a vacant parcel to the south that is the site of a proposed commercial development. There are approximately 209 acres of Farmland of Local Importance, Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance within the City of Rancho Cucamonga according to the General Plan and the California Department of Conservation Farmland Map 2010. Concentrations of Important Farmland are sparsely located in the southern and eastern parts of the City that is characterized by existing and planned development. Farmland in the southern portion of the City is characterized by industrial, residential, and commercial land uses and Farmland in the eastern portion of the City is within the Etiwanda area and planned for development. Further, a large number of the designated farmlands parcels are small, ranging from 3 acres to 30 acres, and their economic viability is doubtful; therefore, they are not intended to be retained as farmland in the General Plan Land Use Plan. The General Plan FPEIR identified the conversion of farmlands to urban uses as a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. b) There is no agriculturally zoned land within the City of Rancho Cucamonga. There are no Williamson Act contracts within the City. • C) There are no lands within the City of Rancho Cucamonga zoned as forest land or timberland. Therefore no impacts would occur related to the conversion of forest land to Rev. 412012 D, E, F,&G 94 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 • City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 5 Less Then Significant Less Issues and Su ortin Information Sources: Potentially Win Than PP 9 Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incomoratel Impact Imoact non-forest use. Further, there are no areas within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that are zoned as forest land, timberland, or Timberland Production. No mitigation is required. d) There are no lands within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that qualify as forest land or timberland. Therefore no impacts would occur related of the loss or conversion of forest land to non-forest use. Further, there are no areas within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that are zoned as forest land, timberland, or Timberland Production. e) The site is located on the south side of Church Street between Mayten Avenue and Malaga Drive and is characterized by existing residential development to the east, west and north and by a vacant land to the south that is the site of a proposed commercial development. The nearest agricultural use is more than 3 miles northwest from the project site. Furthermore, there are no lands within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that qualify as forest land. Therefore, there is no potential for conversion of forest land to a non-forest use. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. 3. AIR QUALITY. Would the project: a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) • applicable air quality plan? b) Violate any air quality standard or contribute ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation? C) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable Federal or State ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions that exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors? d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) concentrations? e) Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) number of people? Comments: a) As noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.3), the proposed project would not interfere with the ability of the region to comply with Federal and State air quality standards for Criterion 1 Increase in the Frequency or Severity of Violations (local air quality impacts) or Criterion 2 Exceed Assumptions in the AQMP (consistency with the 2003 AQMP). Therefore the project is consistent with the 2003 AQMP and is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. b) Both the State of California and the Federal government have established health-based • Ambient Air Quality Standards (AAQS) for seven air pollutants. These pollutants include Ozone (03), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), coarse particulate matter with a diameter or 10 microns or less (PM1o), fine particulate matter less than 2.5 (PM2.5) microns in diameter and lead. Among these pollutants, ozone and particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) are considered regional pollutants, while the others Rev. 4/2012 D,E,F,&G 95 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 6 • Less Tnan Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially g e.lm Wglabw 5lgnificant w Im ac. Incorporated Impact Impact have more localized effects. In addition, the State of California has set standards for sulfates, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), vinyl chloride and visibility reducing particles. These standards are designed to protect the health and welfare of the populace with a reasonable margin of safety. The City of Rancho Cucamonga area is within the South Coast Air Basin, which is under the jurisdiction of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). The California Clean Air Act (CCAA) provides the SCAQMD with the authority to manage transportation activities at indirect sources. Indirect sources of pollution are generated when minor sources collectively emit a substantial amount of pollution. Examples of this include motor vehicles at an intersection, a mall and on highways. SCAQMD also regulates stationary sources of pollution within in jurisdictional area. Direct emissions from motor vehicles are regulated by the Air Resources Board (ARB). The combination of topography, low mixing height, abundant sunshine, and emissions from the second largest urban area in the United States gives the Basin the worst air pollution problem in the nation. The Basin experiences a persistent temperature inversion (increasing temperature with increasing altitude); this inversion (coupled with low wind speeds) limits the vertical dispersion of air contaminants, holding them relatively near the ground. Pursuant to the Federal Clean Air Act (FCAA) of 1970, the EPA established national • ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for six major pollutants, termed criteria pollutants: ozone (03), coarse particulate matter with a diameter or 10 microns or less (PM10), fine particulate matter less than 2.5 (PM2.5) microns in diameter, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and lead. Criteria pollutants are defined as those pollutants for which the Federal and State governments have established AAQS, or criteria, for outdoor concentrations in order to protect public health. Data collected at permanent monitoring stations are used by the EPA to classify regions as "attainment" or "non-attainment" depending on whether the regions met the requirements stated in the primary NAAQS. Nonattainment areas have additional restrictions as required by the EPA. The EPA has designated the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) as the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) responsible for ensuring the Basin's compliance with the FCAA. The South Coast Air Basin is in Non-Attainment Status for Ozone, PM10 and PM2.5. Specific criteria for determining whether the potential air quality impacts of a project are significant are set forth in the SCAQMD's CEQA Air Quality Handbook. The criteria include daily emissions thresholds, compliance with State and national air quality standards, and consistency with the current AQMP. As prescribed by SCAQMD, an air impact study was prepared by LSA (August, 2010) that utilizes the CaIEEMod Version 2011.1.1 to evaluate short-term construction emissions and short-term construction emissions for localized significant thresholds, long-term operational emissions, operation emissions for localized significant thresholds, and Green House Gas Emissions. • Rev. 4/2012 D,E, F,&G 96 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 • City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 7 Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially with Than PP g Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incorporated Impact Ianact Short Term (Construction) Impacts Table 1 below shows that the daily regional construction emissions would not exceed the daily thresholds of any criteria pollutant emission thresholds established by the SCAQMD.

The use of construction equipment on-site would result in localized exhaust emissions. Fugitive Dust Fugitive dust emissions are generally emissions associated with land clearing and exposure of soils to the air and wind, and cut-and-fill grading operations. Dust generated during construction varies substantially on a project-by project basis, depending on the level of activity, the specific operation and weather conditions at the time of construction. Construction emissions can vary greatly depending on the level of activity, the specific operations taking place, the equipment being operated, local soils, weather conditions and other factors. The proposed project will be required to comply with SCAQMD Rules 402 and 403 to control fugitive dust. Architectural Coatings Architectural coatings contain VOCs that are similar to ROCS and are part of the 03 precursors. There are residential buildings proposed for the project. Based on the proposed project, it is estimated that the proposed buildings will result in a peak of 13 lbs. of VOC per day during the coating phase. The architectural coating phase of the project will occur concurrent with the building construction and paving phases. Therefore, VOC emissions from the application of architectural coatings combined with building construction VOC emissions could be as high as 25 lbs./day, which will not exceed the SCAQMD VOC threshold of 75 lbs/day. The project will comply with Global Climate Change Minimization Measure GCC-1 to • ensure the reduction of construction related emissions below the expected "Business as Usual" scenario and be subject to a variety of measures that will reduce the projects GHG Rev. 4/2012 D, E,F,&G 98 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 • City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 9 Less Than Signifwnt Less otenPalty With Than and Supporting Information Sources: Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incorppraletl Impact Impact emissions. The project shall use adhesives, sealants, caulks, paints, stains, and other coatings, carpet and carpet systems that are compliant with VOC and other toxic compound limits. Documentation will be provided to the City at time of construction to verify that compliant VOC limit finish materials will be used. Odors Heavy-duty equipment in the project area during construction would emit odors. However, the construction activity would cease to occur after individual construction is completed. No other sources of objectionable odors have been identified for the proposed project, and no mitigation measures are required. In compliance with SCAQMD Rule 402 the proposed uses are not anticipated to emit any objectionable odors. Therefore, objectionable odors posing a health risk to potential on-site and existing off-site uses would not occur as a result of the proposed project. Naturally Occurring Asbestos The proposed project,is located in San Bernardino County,. and it .is not among the counties that are found to have serpentine and ultramafic rock in their soils. In addition, • there has been no serpentine or ultramafic rock found in the project area. Therefore, the potential risk for naturally occurring asbestos (NOA) during project construction is small and less-than-significant. 2010 General Plan FPEIR Air Quality Analysis and Mitigation Measures (short term) Short-Term (Construction) Emissions - Continued development will contribute to the pollutant levels in the Rancho Cucamonga area, which already exceed Federal and State standards. During the construction phases of development, on-site stationary sources, heavy-duty construction vehicles, construction worker vehicles, and energy use will generate emissions. In addition, fugitive dust would also be generated during grading and construction activities. While most of the dust would settle on or near the project site, smaller particles would remain in the atmosphere, increasing particle levels within the surrounding area. Construction is an on-going industry in the Rancho Cucamonga area. Construction workers and equipment work and operate at one development site until their tasks are complete. Nevertheless, fugitive dust and equipment emissions are required to be assessed by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD)on a project- specific basis and in conformance with the General Plan FPEIR. Therefore, the following mitigation measures as identified in the FPEIR shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels: 1) All construction equipment shall be maintained in good operating condition so as to reduce operational emissions. The contractor shall ensure that all construction equipment is being properly serviced and maintained as per manufacturers' specifications. Maintenance records shall be available at the construction site for City verification. • 2) Prior to the issuance of any Grading Permits, the developer shall submit construction plans to City denoting the proposed schedule and projected equipment use. Construction contractors shall provide evidence that low Rev. 4/2012 D, E, F,&G 99 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 10 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Wig' SignWth ian ficant No Impact Incore.atetl Impact Im act emission mobile construction equipment will be utilized, or that their use was investigated and found to be infeasible for the project. Contractors shall also conform to any construction measures imposed by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) as well as City Planning Staff. 3) All paints and coatings shall meet or exceed performance standards noted in SCAQMD Rule 1113. Paints and coatings shall be applied either by hand or high-volume, low-pressure spray. 4) The project will comply with Global Climate Change Minimization Measure GCC-1 and incorporate the measures outlined in the Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Global Climate Change Study (LSA, August 2012) and provide verification of compliance prior to approval of building permits. 5) All asphalt shall meet or exceed performance standards noted in SCAQMD Rule 1108. 6) All construction equipment shall comply with SCAQMD Rules 402 and 403. Additionally, contractors shall include the following provisions: • Reestablish ground cover on the construction site through seeding and • watering. • Pave or apply gravel to any on-site haul roads. • Phase grading to prevent the susceptibility of large areas to erosion over extended periods of time. • Schedule activities to minimize the amounts of exposed excavated soil during and after the end of work periods. • Dispose of surplus excavated material in accordance with local ordinances and use sound engineering practices. • Sweep streets according to a schedule established by the City if silt is carried over to adjacent public thoroughfares or occurs as a result of hauling. Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction. • Suspend grading operations during high winds (i.e., wind speeds exceeding 25 mph) in accordance with Rule 403 requirements. • Maintain a minimum 24-inch freeboard ratio on soils haul trucks or cover payloads using tarps or other suitable means. 7) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and Regional Water Quality Control Board [RWQCB]) daily to reduce PMIO emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403. 8) Chemical soil-stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be • applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PMIO emissions.

The General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) analyzed the impacts of Air Quality based on the future build-out of the City. Based upon on the Urban Emissions Model (URBEMIS7G) estimates in Table 4.3-3 of the General Plan (FPEIR), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Ozone (03), and Particulate Matter (PM2.5 and PM,g) would exceed SCAQMD thresholds for significance; therefore, they would all be cumulatively considerable if they cannot be mitigated on a project basis to a level less-than-significant. Long-Term (Operational) Impacts Long-Term Project Operational Emissions Long-term air pollutant emission impacts are those associated with stationary sources and mobile sources involving any project-related changes. The proposed project would result • in a net increase in the number of residents in the project area; therefore, the proposed project would result in net increases in both stationary and mobile source emissions. The stationary source emissions would come from additional natural gas consumption for on-site buildings and electricity for the lighting in the buildings and at the parking area. The project proposes the construction of 306 multi-family residential units. Based on the trip generation factors, included in ITE Trip Generation Manual, Eighth Edition, which are also provided in the project's traffic study (LSA Associates, Inc., May 2012), and are entered in the CaIEEMod model, Long-term operational emissions associated with the proposed project are shown on Table 3 below (Long-Term Regional Operational Emissions). The proposed project will generate even less emissions than those in Table 3 because the table does not account for the proposed emission reduction measures. Area sources include architectural coatings, consumer products, hearth and landscaping. Energy sources include natural gas consumption for heating and cooking. Table 3 shows the corresponding SCAQMD daily emission thresholds for criteria pollutants and that the project related long-term air quality impacts would be less-than-significant. • Rev. 4/2012 D, E, F,&G 101 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 12 • Leas Than Signifiranl Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: potentially wm Than PP 9 Significant Mitigation SignificantNo Impact Incur orated Imoact bloat( Table 3: Long-Term Regional Operational Emissions Pollutant Emissions lbs/da Source VCNOx CO sox PMJ' PM's Area Sources 8.3 0.31 27 0 0.53 0.52 Energy Sources 0.24 1 2.1 0.88 0.01 0.17 0.17 Mobile Sources 11 26 100 0.2 22 1.4 Total Project Emissions 20 28 130 0.21 23 _ 2.1 SCA MD Thresholds 55 55 550 150 150 55' Si nificant?

The LST analysis only includes on-site sources; however, the CaIEEMod model outputs do not separate on-site and off-site emissions for mobile sources. For a worst case scenario assessment, the emissions shown in Table 4 include all on-site project-related stationary sources and 5 percent of the project-related new mobile sources, which is an estimate of the amount of project-related new vehicle traffic that will occur on-site. Considering the total trip length included in the CaIEEMod model, which is from 7.3 to 10.8 miles, the 5 percent assumption is conservative, as the vast majority of vehicle traffic will immediately leave the site. Table 4 shows that the operation emission rate would not exceed the LST thresholds for receptors at 30 meters. Therefore, the proposed operational activity would not result in a localized significant air quality impact. • Rev. 4/2012 D, E, F,&G 102 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 • City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 13 Less Than signiUcanl Less Issues and Supporting Information SPntanualiy with Than PP g Sources: significant maiganar signirmant No Impact Incorporated Imoad Impact Table 4: Long-Term Operation LST Number (lbs/day) Emissions Sources NOx CO PM11 PM25 On-site Emissions 1.6 32 1.6 0.59 LST Thresholds 270 2,193 4.0 2.0 Significant Emissions?

In the long-term, development consistent with the General Plan would result in significant operational vehicle emissions based upon on the URBEMIS7G model estimates in Table 4.3-3 of the General Plan FPEIR; therefore, would all be cumulatively significant if they cannot be mitigated on a project basis to a level less-than-significant. The following mitigation measures as identified in the FPEIR shall be implemented: 11) Provide adequate ingress and egress at all entrances to public facilities to minimize vehicle idling at curbsides. 12) Provide preferential parking to high occupancy vehicles and shuttle services. 13) Improve thermal integrity of the buildings and reduce thermal load with automated time clocks or occupant sensors. 14) Landscape with native and/or drought-resistant species to reduce water consumption and to provide passive solar benefits. 15) Comply with the AQMP Miscellaneous Sources PRC-03, and Stationary Sources Operations Enhanced Inspection and Maintenance and ADV-MISC to reduce emissions of restaurant operations. 16) All residential structures shall be required to incorporate high-efficiency/low- polluting heating, air conditioning, appliances, and water heaters. • 17) All residential structures shall be required to incorporate thermal pane windows and weather-stripping.

C) As noted in the General Plan FEIR (Section 4.3), continued development would contribute to the pollutant levels in the Rancho Cucamonga area, which already exceed Federal and State standards. The General Plan FPEIR identified the citywide increase in emissions as a significant and adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council. The project proposed is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. d) Sensitive receptors are defined as populations that are more susceptible to the effects of pollution than the population at large. The SCAQMD identifies the following as sensitive receptors: long-term health care facilities, rehabilitation centers, convalescent centers, retirement homes, residences, schools, playgrounds, child care centers, and athletic facilities. According to the SCAQMD, projects have the potential to create significant impacts if they are located within 1/4 mile of sensitive receptors and would emit toxic air contaminants identified in SCAQMD Rule 1401. The project site is located within 1/4 mile of a sensitive receptor. Potential impacts to air quality are consistent with the Public • Health and Safety Super-Element within the Rancho Cucamonga General Plan. During construction, there is the possibility of fugitive dust to be generated from grading the site. The mitigation measures listed under b) above and the following mitigation measure will reduce impact to less-than-significant levels. 18) All new development in the City of Rancho Cucamonga shall comply with South Coast Air Quality Management District's Rule 445, Wood Burning Devices. Rule 445 was adopted in March 2008 to reduce emissions of PM2.5 and precludes the installation of indoor or outdoor wood burning devices (i.e. fireplaces/hearths) in new development on or after March 9, 2009. e) Construction Odors (Short-term) may include odors associated with equipment use including diesel exhaust or roofing, painting and paving. These odors are temporary and would dissipate rapidly. Operation Odors (Long-term) are typically associated with the type of use. Odors from residential uses would be like cooking and gardening. Similarly common odors associated with mixed-use and commercial land uses would be expected (i.e. restaurants). Local odors from the majority of land uses would be similar to other urban areas and would not be considered significant. Industrial uses could create objectionable odors and therefore are located away from residential uses and sensitive receptors. Typically, the uses proposed do not create objectionable odors. No adverse impacts are anticipated. • Rev. 4/2012 D, E, F,&G 104 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 • City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 15 Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potwtnfll Wm man PP 9 Slgnificanl MiligaDcn Than No Im ad incorporated Impact Im ad 4.

Comments: a) The project site is located in an area developed with residential uses. The site has been previously disrupted during construction of infrastructure and surrounding developments and annual discing for weed abatement. According to the General Plan Figure RC-4, and Section 4.4 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is not within an area of sensitive biological resources. A General Biological Resource Assessment (LSA Associates, Inc., June 2012) was performed on the project site. The study found that because of intense site disturbance, the site is dominated by the predominance of nonnative vegetation and. the near absences of native shrubs. Wildlife species observed on the site were typical of disturbed and urban environments. None of the wildlife species observed on the site is considered sensitive. The study, though, found that the site was suitable habitat for the burrowing owl and recommended that a pre-construction burrowing owl survey be • performed 30 days prior to the beginning of site grading. A burrowing owl survey was performed on the site (LSA Associates, Inc., August 17, 2012) and observed four burrowing owls on the undeveloped lot to the south. No burrowing owls were found on the site. With the following mitigation measure the impacts will be less-than-significant: Rev. 4/2012 D,E,F,&G 105 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 16 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially with Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Int act Incorporated Impact Int aon 1) The applicant shall perform a pre-construction burrowing owl survey 30 days prior to the beginning of site grading.

No riparian habitat exists on-site, meaning the project will not have any impacts. C) No wetland habitat is present on-site. As a result, project implementation would have no impact on these resources. d) The City is primarily located in an urban area that does not contain large, contiguous natural open space areas. Wildlife potentially may move through the north/south trending tributaries in the northern portion of the City and within the Sphere-of-Influence. Therefore no adverse impacts are anticipated. e) There are no heritage trees on the project site; therefore, the proposed project is not in conflict with any local ordinance. f) Neither the City nor the SOI are within an adopted HCP, NCCP, or other approved State • Habitat Conservation Plan area. The project site is not located within a local conservation area according to the General Plan, Open Space and Conservation Plan, Figure RC-1. No conflicts with habitat conservation plans will occur. 5. CULTURAL RESOURCES. Would the project: a) Cause a substantial adverse change in the ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) significance of a historical resource as defined in § 15064.5? b) Cause a substantial adverse change in the ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) significance of an archeological resource pursuant to § 15064.5? c) Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological ( ).

Comments: a) The project site has not been identified as a "Historic Resource" per the standards of Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code Section 2.24 (Historic Preservation). Additionally, LSA Associates, Inc. completed a Cultural Resources Assessment (July, 2012)that concluded that because of the lack of cultural resources within the project area, the project would not have an impact on the areas cultural resources. As part of the Cultural Resources Assessment, LSA Associates, Inc. contacted the California Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) and requested that they search the Sacred Land File and provide a list of Native American Tribe • with ancestral ties to the vicinity of the project site. The NAHC provided a list of eight tribes who were contacted and requested to respond with any issues they may have regarding the project proposal. Two tribes responded (Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians and Rev. 4/2012 D, E, F,&G 106 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design ,Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 • City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 17 Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Z�ircalm N With siy�nSant No Impact Incorporated Impact Impact GabrielinolTongva Tribe) to the request. The Soboba Band requested that the applicant sign a Treatment and Disposition agreement between the applicant and the Soboba Band. The Gabrielino(Tongva Tribe requested that an archaeological monitor be on-site to oversee grading activities during project construction. In compliance with State Bill 18 (Native American Consultationy, the City met with a tribal representative of the Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians (Joseph Ontiveros). At that meeting, he stated that a Native American tribal monitor was not necessary but requested that the project archeologist regularly monitor the site for Native American artifacts during any grading activities. With the following mitigation measures identified by the Native American tribal consultants, no impact is anticipated. 1) A Treatment and Disposition agreement shall be entered into between the Soboba Band and the applicant prior to a grading permit being issued. 2) An archeologist shall regularly monitor the project site during any grading activities. If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or during grading, the applicant shall take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. With the assistance of the archaeologist, the City of Rancho Cucamonga will: • • Enact interim measures to protect undesignated sites from demolition or significant modification without an opportunity for the City to establish its archaeological value. • Consider establishing provisions to require incorporation of archaeological sites within new developments, using their special qualities as a theme or focal point. • Pursue educating the public about the archaeological heritage of the area. • Prepare a mitigation plan consistent with Section 21083.2 Archaeological resources of CEQA to eliminate adverse project effects on significant, important, and unique prehistoric resources, including but not limited to, avoiding archaeological sites, capping or covering sites with soil, planning the site as a park or green space or paying a in- kind mitigation fee. • Prepare a technical resources management report, documenting the inventory, evaluation, and proposed mitigation of resources within the project area. Submit one copy of the completed report with original illustrations, to the San Bernardino County Archaeological Information Center for permanent archiving. b) There are no known archaeological sites or resources recorded on the project site; however, the Rancho Cucamonga area is known to have been inhabited by Native Americans according to the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.6). Construction activity, particularly grading, soil excavation, and compaction, could adversely affect or eliminate existing and potential • archaeological resources. The General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) analyzed the impacts of Cultural Resources based on the future build-out of the City. With the mitigation measures outlined in Section A2 above, no impact is anticipated.

According to the research performed at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County and the San Bernardino County database, no paleontological sites or resources have been recorded within the City of Rancho Cucamonga or the Sphere-of-Influence, including the project site; however, the area has a high sensitivity rating for paleontological resources. The older alluvium, which would have been deposited during, the wetter climate that prevailed 10,000-100,000 years ago during the Late Pleistocene epoch of the Quaternary period, when the last "Ice Age" and the appearance of modern man occurred, may contain significant vertebrate fossils. The project site is underlain by Quaternary alluvium per the Public Safety Element of the General Plan; therefore, the following mitigation measures shall be implemented: 1) If any paleontological resource (i.e. plant or animal fossils) are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified paleontologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. The paleontologist shall submit a report of findings that will also provide specific recommendations regarding further mitigation measures (i.e., paleontological monitoring) that may be appropriate. Where mitigation monitoring is appropriate, the program must include, but not be limited to, the following measures: • • Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow the rapid removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to the site full-time during the interval of earth-disturbing activities. • Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded, divert earth-disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has completed salvage. If construction personnel make the discovery, the grading contractor should immediately divert construction and notify the monitor of the find. • Prepare, identify, and curate all recovered fossils for documentation in the summary report and transfer to an appropriate depository (i.e., San Bernardino County Museum). • Submit summary report to City of Rancho Cucamonga. Transfer collected specimens with a copy of the report to San Bernardino County Museum. d) The proposed project is in an area that has already been disturbed by development. The project site has already been disrupted by construction of infrastructure and surrounding developments/annual discing for weed abatement. No known religious or sacred sites exist within the project area. No evidence is in place to suggest the project site has been used for human burials. The California Health and Safety Code (Section 7050.5) states that if human remains are discovered on-site, no further disturbance shall occur until the County Coroner has made a determination of origin and disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. As adherence to State regulations is required for all development, no mitigation is required in the unlikely event human remains are discovered on-site. No adverse impacts are anticipated. • Rev. 4/2012 D, E, F,&G 108 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 • City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 19 Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Fot'magy with Than PP 9 Significant Mitigation Slgnifi and No Impact Incorporated Im aq Impact 6.

Comments: a) No known faults pass through the site and it is not in an Earthquake Fault Zone, nor is it in the Rancho Cucamonga City Special Study Zone along the Red Hill Fault, according to the General Plan Figure PS-2, and Section 4.7 of the General Plan FPEIR. The Red Hill Fault, passes within 2 miles north of the site, and the Cucamonga Fault Zone lies approximately 4 miles north. These faults are both capable of producing M,, 6.0 — 7.0 earthquakes, respectively. Also, the San Jacinto fault, capable of producing up to Mw 7.5 earthquakes is 8 miles northeasterly of the site and the San Andreas, capable of up to M,,, 8.2 earthquakes, is 10 miles northeasterly of the site. Each of these faults can produce strong ground shaking. Adhering to the Uniform Building Code and Standard Conditions will ensure that geologic impacts are less-than-significant. • b) The City of Rancho Cucamonga is within a designated Soil Erosion Control Area Exhibit 4.7-4 of the General Plan FPEIR. The proposed project will require the excavation, stockpiling, and/or movement of on-site soils. The Rancho Cucamonga area is subject to strong Santa Ana wind conditions during September to April, which generates blowing Rev. 4/2012 D,E, F,&G 109 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 20 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Pmantolly With Than PP 9 Significant MNgation Significant Na Impact Incarporated Impact Int act sand and dust, and creates erosion problems. Construction activities may temporarily exacerbate the impacts of windblown sand, resulting in temporary problems of dust control; however, development of this project under the General Plan would help to reduce windblown sand impacts in the area as pavement, roads, buildings, and landscaping are established. Therefore, the following fugitive dust mitigation measures shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels: 1) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) daily to reduce PMig emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403 or re-planted with drought resistant landscaping as soon as possible. 2) Frontage public streets shall be swept according to a schedule established by the City to reduce PMig emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil off- site. Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction. 3) Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph to minimize PM1g emissions from the site during such episodes. 4) Chemical soil-stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be • applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PM10 emissions. C) The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.7) indicates that there is a potential for the hillside areas at the northern end of the City and in the SOI for slope failure, landslides, and/or erosion. Areas subject to slope instability contain slopes of 30 percent or greater. Landslides may be induced by seismic activity, rain, or construction. The City Hillside Development Regulations prohibits the development within slopes of 30 percent or greater and limit the number of units that could be constructed within the Hillside Residential and Very Low Density Residential designations in the Hillside areas. The site is not within an Earthquake hazard zone or other unstable geologic unit or soil type according to General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.7-2. Soil types on-site consist of Tujunga Loamy Sand Soil association according to General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.7-3. No adverse impacts are anticipated. d) The majority of Rancho Cucamonga, including the project site, is located on alluvial soil deposits. These types of soils are not considered to be expansive. Soil types on-site consist of Tujunga Loamy Sand Soil association according to General.Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.7-3. These soils are typically on 0 to 5 percent slopes on broad alluvial fans where the soil is rapidly permeable. No adverse impacts are anticipated. e) The project will connect to, and be served by, the existing local sewer system for wastewater disposal. No septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal is proposed. • Rev. 4/2012 D,E,F,&G 110 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 • City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 21 Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially with Than PP 9 significant Mitigation Si gnifcont No Impact Incor orated Impact Impact 7. GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS. Would the project: a) Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or O (✓) O O indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment? b) Conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases? ( ) ( ) (.) (✓) Comments: a) Regulations and Significance - 1979 with the National Climate Protection Act (92 Stat. 601). In June of 2005, Governor Schwarzenegger established California's Green House Gas ("GHG") emissions reduction target in Executive Order (EO) S-3-05. The EO created goals to reduce GHG emissions for the State of California to 2000 levels by 2010; GHG emissions reduced to 1990 levels by 2020; and.GHG emissions reduced to 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. Additionally, on December 7, 2009, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) issued findings regarding GHGs under rule 202(a) of the Clean Air Act: (1) that GHGs endanger human health; and (2) that this will be the first • steps to regulating GHGs through the Federal Clean Air Act. The USEPA defines six key GHGs (carbon dioxide [CO2], methane [CH4], nitrous oxide [N20], hydroflourocarbons [HFCs], perflourocarbons [PFCs], and sulfur hexafluoride [SF6]. The combined emissions of these well-mixed greenhouse gases from new motor vehicles and engines contribute to GHG pollution. The western states, including Arizona, California, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, and Washington, already experience hotter, drier climates. California is a substantial contributor of GHGs and is expected to see an increase of three to four degrees Fahrenheit (°F) over the next century. Assembly Bill (AB) 32 requires that the California Air Resources Board (ARB), the lead agency for implementing AB 32, determine what the statewide GHG emission level was in 1990 and approve a statewide GHG emissions limit (427 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent) to be achieved by 2020 and prepare a Scoping Plan to outline the main strategies for meeting the 2020 deadline. Significant progress can be made toward the 2020 goal through existing technologies and improving the efficiency of energy use. Other solutions would include improving the State's infrastructure, and transitioning to cleaner and more efficient sources of energy. The ARB estimates that 38 percent of the State's GHG emissions in 2004 was from transportation sources followed by electricity generation (both in-State and out-of-State) at 28 percent and industrial at 20 percent. Residential and commercial activities account for 9 percent, agricultural uses at 6 percent, high global warming potential gases at 3 percent, and recycling and waste at 1 percent. • It is not anticipated that any single development project would have a substantial effect on global climate change but that GHG emissions from the project would combine with emissions across California, the United States, and the world to cumulatively contribute to global climate change. Therefore, consistent with the ARB's Climate Change Scoping Rev. 4/2012 D, E, F,&G 111 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 22 • Less Than S,pficam Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Wah Than PP 9 Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incorporated Impact Im act Plan, the proposed project was evaluated for consistency with the Early Action Measures (Scoping Plan is a recommendation until adopted through normal rulemaking). The proposed project is assessed by determining its consistency with the 37 Recommended Actions identified by ARB. In compliance with Senate Bill (SB) 97 and CEQA, the project has been analyzed based on a performance based standard") (CEQA 15064.4). Additionally, the ARB was directed through SB 375 to develop regional GHG emission reduction targets to be achieved within the automobile and light truck sectors for 2020 and 2035. SCAQMD and ARB maintain ambient air quality monitoring stations in the Basin. The stations closest to the project site are the Upland station and the Fontana-Arrow Highway station. The Upland station monitors all criteria pollutant except PM10, PM2.5, and SO2 which are monitored at the Fontana-Arrow Highway station. The ambient air quality in the project area for CO, NO2, and SO2 are consistently below the relevant State and Federal standards (based on ARB and EPA from 2007, 2008, and 2009 readings). Ozone, PM10, and PM2,5levels all exceed State and Federal standards regularly. Project Related Sources of GHG's - Based on the Guidelines for the Implementation of California Environmental Quality Act, Appendix G, a project would normally be considered 'to have a significant effect on air quality if the project would violate any ambient air quality • standards, contribute substantially to an existing air quality violation, expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations, or conflict with adopted environmental plans and goals of the community. However, neither the CEQA statutes, Office of Planning and Research (OPR) guidelines, nor the draft proposed changes to the CEQA Guidelines prescribe thresholds of significance or a particular methodology for performing an impact analysis. Significance criteria are left to the judgment and discretion of the Lead Agency. Project-related GHG's would include emissions from direct and indirect sources. Based on the Air Quality Analysis prepared by LSA Associates, Inc. (August, 2012) the project would result in the emissions of carbon dioxide[CO21, methane [CH,], nitrous oxide [N2O], and carbon dioxide equivalent [CO211- Short Term (Construction) GHG Emissions - The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.5) indicates that GHG emissions result from construction activities associated with diesel-powered construction equipment and other combustion sources (i.e. Generators, workers vehicles, material delivery, etc.). The GHG emitted by construction equipment is primarily carbon dioxide (CO2). The highest levels of construction related GHGs occur during site preparation including demolition, grading and excavation. Construction related GHG's are also emitted from off-site haul trucks and construction workers traveling to the job site. Exhaust emissions from construction activities would vary each day with the changes in construction activity on-site. The combustion of fossil-based fuels creates GHG's such as CO2, Cho, and N2O. CH4 is emitted during the fueling of heavy equipment. Therefore, the following mitigation measures shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels: 1) The project must comply with all rules that assist in reducing short-term air • pollutant emission in compliance with SCAWMD Rule 403 regarding fugitive Rev. 4/2012 D,E, F,&G 112 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 • City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 23 Less Tnan Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially ,t, Tnan PP 9 Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Inco orated 'me Impact dust including treating the site with water or other soil-stabilizing agent twice daily or replanting disturbed areas as quickly as possible. 2) The construction contactor shall select construction equipment based on low- emission factors and high energy efficiency and submit a statement on the grading plan that ensures all construction equipment will be tuned and maintained in accordance with the manufactures specification. 3) Trucks shall not idle continuously for more than 5 minutes. 4) Alternative fuel powered equipment shall be utilized in lieu of gasoline- or diesel-powered engines where feasible. 5) Construction should be timed so as not to interfere with peak-hour traffic. 6) Ridesharing and transit incentives shall be supported and encouraged for construction crew. Long Term (Operational) GHG's Emissions - The primary source of GHG emissions • generated by the proposed project would be from motor vehicles, combustion of natural gas for space and water heating, as well as off-site GHG emissions from generation of electricity consumed by the proposed land use development over a long term. CEQA requires the Lead Agency to review the project for "adequacy, completeness, and a good faith effort at full disclosure," to determine potential impacts of GHG's. Therefore the project has been analyzed based on methodologies and information available to the City at the time this document was prepared. Estimates are based on past performance and represent a scenario that is a worst case with the understanding that technology changes may reduce GHG emissions in the future. To date, there is no established quantified GHG emission threshold. Long-term GHG emissions impacts are those associated with stationary sources such as energy consumption and mobile sources such as vehicular trips resulting from project implementation. While the project is planning on building 306 multi-family units, the site could accommodate up to 316 multi-family dwelling units. The Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Global Climate Change Study performed by LSA Associates, Inc. (August 2012) bases there study on GHG emissions from the operation of 316 multi-family dwelling units. The GHG emission estimates presented in Table 1 show the emissions associated with operation of the proposed project under Business as Usual (BAU) scenario of the General Plan Mixed Use zoning designation for the project site, which includes office, commercial and residential uses. Using CalEEMod defaults for all operational parameters, a hypothetical Mixed Use project that includes 139,500 square feet of office space, 236,250 square feet of retail space, and 23 townhomes would result in 10,736 vehicle trips per day, 75.2 million gallons of water, 252 MWhr of electricity, 1,240 MBTU of natural gas and 399 tons of solid waste annually. • Table 1: Long-Term Operational Greenhouse Gas Emissions —BAU General Plan MU Zoning.

This scenario, while producing area emissions greater than the BAU General Plan Mixed Use scenario, results in an approximately 75 percent decrease in the vehicle trips and a nearly 65 percent reduction in the net GHG emissions.

This is primarily because of an approximately 75 percent reduction in vehicle trips and more efficient energy and water use resulting in substantially lower GHG emissions. It can be concluded, than, that the reduction in GHG emissions achieved by the proposed project through a change in zoning and project design, would not generate GHG emissions, ether directly or indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment. Additionally, the proposed project would not conflict with AB32 or other applicable plans, policies, or regulations adopted for the purpose of reduction the emission of GHGs because is substantially reduces project related GHG emissions to substantially below the General Plan Mixed Use zoning scenario. Therefore, with the achievement of a nearly 65 percent total reduction from BAU, the proposed projects climate impacts GHG impacts would be less-than-significant, and no mitigation is required. The project is consistent with the California Environmental Protection Agency Climate Action Team proposed early action measures to mitigate climate change included in the • CARB Scoping Plan mandated under AB 32. The project will not conflict or impede implementation of reduction goals identified in AB 32, the Governor's EO S- 0-5 and other strategies to help reduce GHGs to the level proposed by the Governor. Additionally, the City is participating in the development of a Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS) with SANBAG for the San Bernardino County area pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 375. The project's long term operation emissions will contribute to area pollutants but will not exceed any of the SCAQMD's thresholds. The proposed project would have less than a significant long term impact with the following mitigation measures: 7) Construction and Building materials shall be produced and/or manufactured locally. Use "Green Building Materials" such as materials that are resource efficient, recycled and manufactured in an environmentally friendly way including low-volatile-organic-compound (VOC) materials. 8) Design all buildings to exceed California Building Code Title 24 energy standard including but not limited to any combination of: • Increased insulation Limit air leakage through the structure • Incorporate Energy Star or better rated windows, space heating and cooling equipment, light fixtures, and appliances • Landscape and developed site utilizing shade, prevailing winds and • landscaping • Install efficient lighting and lighting control systems Rev. 4/2012 D, E,f,&G 115 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 26 • Less Than SigniScant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially wim Than PP 9 Signif¢ant M,tigepon Signi9wnl No Impact Inconeoraled Impact Impact Install solar or light emitting diodes (LED's)for outdoor lighting. 9) Prepare a comprehensive water conservation strategy appropriate for the project and include the following: • Install water efficient landscapes and irrigation systems and devices in compliance with the City of Rancho Cucamonga Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance. • Use reclaimed water for landscaping within the project if available and/or install the infrastructure to deliver and use reclaimed water. • Design building to be water efficient by installing water efficient fixtures and appliances including low flow faucets, dual flush toilets and waterless urinals/water heaters. • Design irrigation to control runoff and to remove water to non-vegetated surfaces. 10) Reuse and recycle construction and demolition waste. Provide interior and • exterior storage areas for recyclables and green waste in public areas. Educated employees about reducing waste and about recycling. The proposed project will result in 3,800 MTCOZeq/yr (total project emissions) of operational related emission without reduction from project design features. Based on the reduction measures proposed for the project and the Mitigation Measures the project would reduce its GHG emission below the "business as usual" scenario by 65 percent. AB 32 requires the reduction of GHG emissions to 1990 levels, which would require a minimum 28.5 percent reduction in "business as usual" GHG emissions for the entire State. b) The project proposes the construction of 306 multi-family units. No other applicable plans, policies, or regulations adopted for the purpose of reducing GHG emission apply to the project. The 2010 General Plan Update included adopted policies and Standard Conditions that respond to the Attorney General and the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA). The General Plan policies and Standard Conditions guide infill and sustainable development reliant on pedestrian connections, re-use and rehabilitation of existing structures, link transportation opportunities, promote development that is sensitive to natural resources and incentivizes denser mixed use projects that maximizes diverse opportunities. The proposed project will conform to Global Climate Change Minimization Measure GCC-1, include water efficient landscaping, use energy star appliances and windows, and use LED outdoor lighting fixtures and therefore is consistent with the policies of the General Plan. The General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) analyzed the impacts of GHG's and determined that GHG emissions would be cumulatively considerable, which would be a significant unavoidable adverse cumulative impact. A Statement of Overriding Considerations was • ultimately adopted by the City Council. The proposed project would not hinder the State's GHG reduction goals established by Assembly (AB) 32 and therefore would be less than a significant impact.

Construction activities covered under the State's General Construction permit include removal of vegetation, grading, excavating, or any other activity for new development or significant redevelopment. Prior to commencement of construction of a project, a discharger must submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) to obtain coverage under the General Permit. The General Permit requires all dischargers to comply with the following during construction-activities, including site clearance and grading: • Develop and implement a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) that would specify Best Management Practices (BMPs) to prevent construction pollutants from contacting storm water and with the intent of keeping all products of erosion from moving off-site into receiving waters. • Eliminate or reduce non-storm water discharges to storm sewer systems and other waters of the nation. • Perform inspections of all BMPs. Waste discharges include discharges of storm water and construction project discharges. • A construction project for new development or significant redevelopment requires an NPDES permit. Construction project proponents are required to prepare an SWPPP. To comply with the NPDES, the project construction contractor will be required to prepare an SWPPP during construction activities, and a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP)for post-construction operational management of storm water runoff. The applicant has submitted a WQMP, prepared by Madole & Associates, Inc. (September, 2012), which identifies BMPs to minimize the amount of pollutants, such as eroded soils, entering the drainage system after construction. Runoff from driveways, roads and other impermeable surfaces must be controlled through an on-site drainage system. BMPs include both structural and non-structural control methods. Structural controls used to manage storm water pollutant levels include detention basins, oil/grit separators, and porous pavement. Non-structural controls focus on controlling pollutants at the source, generally through implementing erosion and sediment control plans, and various Business Plans that must be developed by any businesses that store and use hazardous materials. Practices such as periodic parking lot sweeping can substantially reduce the amount of pollutants entering the storm drain system. The following mitigation measures are required to control additional storm water effluent: Construction Activities: 1) Prior to issuance of Grading Permits, the permit applicant shall submit to the Building Official for approval, a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) specifically identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that shall be used on-site to reduce pollutants during construction activities entering the storm drain system to the maximum extent practical. 2) An Erosion Control Plan shall be prepared, included in the Grading Plan, and is implemented for the proposed project that identifies specific measures to Rev. 4/2012 D,E,F,&G 120 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 • City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 31 Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially with Than PP 9 Significant Mhigation Significant No Impact Inco orated Impact Im act control on-site and off-site erosion from the time ground disturbing activities are initiated through completion of grading. This Erosion Control Plan shall include the following measures at a minimum: a) Specify the timing of grading and construction to minimize soil exposure to rainy periods experienced in Southern California, and b) An inspection and maintenance program shall be included to ensure that any erosion which does occur either on-site or off-site as a result of this project will be corrected through a remediation or restoration program within a specified time frame. 3) During construction, temporary berms such as sandbags or gravel dikes must be used to prevent discharge of debris or sediment from the site when there is rainfall or other runoff. 4) During construction, to remove pollutants, street cleaning will be performed prior to storm events and after the use of water trucks to control dust in order to prevent discharge of debris or sediment from the site. Post- Construction Operational: • 5) The developer shall implement the BMPs identified in the Water Quality Management Plan prepared by Madole & Associates, Inc. (September, 2006) to reduce pollutants after construction entering the storm drain system to the maximum extent practical. 6) Landscaping plans shall include provisions for controlling and minimizing the use of fertilizers/pesticides/herbicides. Landscaped areas shall be monitored and maintained for at least two years to ensure adequate coverage and stable growth. Plans for these areas, including monitoring provisions for a minimum of two years, shall be submitted to the City for review and approval prior to the issuance of Grading Permits. b) According to CVWD, approximately 35 percent of the City's water is currently provided from water supplies coming from the underlying Chino and Cucamonga Groundwater Basins. CVWD complies with its prescriptive water rights as managed by the Chino Basin Watermaster and will not deplete the local groundwater resource. The proposed project will not deplete groundwater supplies, nor will it interfere with recharge because it is not within an area designated as a recharge basin or spreading ground according to General Plan Figure RC-3. Development of the site will require the grading and excavation, but would not affect the existing aquifer, estimated to be about 300 to 470 feet below the ground surface. As noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.9), continued development citywide will increase water needs but will not be a significant impact. CVWD has plans to meet this increased need to the year 2030. No impacts are anticipated. C) The project will cause changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and amount of surface water runoff because of the amount of new building and hardscape • proposed on the site; however, the project will not alter the course of any stream or river. All runoff will be conveyed to existing storm drain facilities, which have been designed to handle the flows. The project design includes landscaping of all non-hardscape areas to prevent erosion. A Grading and Drainage Plan must be approved by the Building Official Rev. 4/2012 D, E, F,&G 121 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 32 • Lass Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Patau,iaov wnn man Signi(cant Mitigation Significant No Im act K7; Impact oratetl Impact Im act and City Engineer prior to issuance of Grading Permits.

Therefore, increase in runoff-from the site will not result in flooding on- or off-site. No impacts are anticipated. f) Grading activities associated with the construction period could result in a temporary • increase in the amount of suspended solids in surface flows during a concurrent storm event, thus resulting in surface water quality impacts. The site is for new development therefore, is required to comply with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) to minimize water pollution. The following mitigation measures shall ,be implemented: 7) Prior to issuance of building permits, the applicant shall submit to the City Building Official for approval of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP), including a project description and. identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that will be used on-site to reduce pollutants into the storm drain system to the maximum extent practicable. The WQMP shall identify the structural and non-structural measures consistent with the Guidelines for New Development and Redevelopment adopted by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in June 2004. 8) Prior to issuance of grading or paving permits, the applicant shall obtain a Notice of Intent (NOI) to comply with obtaining coverage under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Construction Storm Water Permit from the State Water Resources Control Board. Evidence that this has been obtained (i.e., a copy of the Waste Discharger's Identification Number) shall be submitted to the City Building Official for coverage under the NPDES General Construction Permit. g) The project site is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area according to General Plan Figure PS-5.

The system is substantially improved and provides an integrated approach for regional and local drainage flows. This existing system includes several debris dams and levees north of the City, spreading grounds, concrete-lined channels, and underground storm drains as shown in General Plan Figure PS-6. The project site is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area according to General Plan Figure PS-5. No adverse impacts are expected. j) There are no oceans, lakes, or reservoirs near the project site; therefore impacts from seiche and tsunami are not anticipated. The Rancho Cucamonga area sits at the base of the steep eastern San Gabriel Mountains whose deep canyons were cut by mountain streams. Numerous man-made controls have been constructed to reduce the mudflow impacts to the level of non-significance within the City. This existing system includes several debris dams and levees north of the City, and spreading grounds both within and north of the City. • 10. LAND USE AND PLANNING.

As such, no impacts are anticipated. C) The primary source of ambient noise levels in Rancho Cucamonga is traffic. Because the project will not significantly increase traffic as analyzed in Section 16 Transportation/Traffic; it will likely not increase ambient noise levels within the vicinity of the project • d) The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.12) indicates that during a construction phase, on-site stationary sources, heavy-duty construction vehicles, and construction equipment, will generate noise exceeding City standards. The following measures are provided to mitigate the short-term noise impacts: 10) Construction or grading shall not take place between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any time on Sunday or a national holiday. 11) Construction or grading noise levels shall not exceed the standards specified in Development Code Section 17.02.120-D, as measured at the property line. Developer shall hire a consultant to perform weekly noise level monitoring as specified in Development Code Section 17.02.120. Monitoring at other times may be required by the Building Official. Said consultant shall report their findings to the Building Official within 24 hours; however, if noise levels exceed the above standards, then the consultant shall immediately notify the Building Official. If noise levels exceed the above standards,then construction activities shall be reduced in intensity to a level of compliance with above noise standards or halted. 12) The perimeter block wall shall be constructed as early as possible in first phase. The preceding mitigation measures will reduce the disturbance created by on-site construction equipment but do not address the potential impacts because of the transport of construction materials and debris. The following mitigation measure shall then be • required: Rev. 4/2012 D, E, F,&G 126 Initial Study for General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, Development Design Review DRC2012-00726, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18856, and Minor Exception DRC2012-00759 City of Rancho Cucamonga • Page 37 Less Than Signifwnt Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially with Than pp 9 Significant Mitigation Signiricanl No Impact Incorporated Impact ImPct 13) Haul truck deliveries shall not take place between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any time on Sunday or a national holiday. Additionally, if heavy trucks used for hauling would exceed 100 daily trips (counting both to and from the construction site), then the developer shall prepare a noise mitigation plan denoting any construction traffic haul routes and include appropriate noise mitigation measures. To the extent feasible, the plan shall denote haul routes that do not pass sensitive land uses or residential dwellings. e) The site is not located within an airport land use plan and is not within 2 miles of a public airport. The project is located approximately 5 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport and is offset north of the flight path. No impact is anticipated. f) The nearest private airstrip, Cable Airport, is located approximately 2 1/2 miles to the west of the City's westerly limits. No impact is anticipated. 13.

Induce substantial population growth in an area, either ' ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) • directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)? b) Displace substantial numbers of existing housing, ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? C) Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? Comments: a) The project is located in a predominantly developed area and will not induce population growth. The project is located in a predominantly developed area and will include the construction of 306 multiple-family homes. Although the project will increase the population growth in the area there will be a less-than-significant impact as the project is consistent with the underlying Zoning and General Plan Designation. The density was analyzed as part of the build-out in the General Plan FPEIR. Construction activities at the site will be short-term and will not attract new employees to the area. No impacts are anticipated. b) Because the property is vacant, there will be no displacement of housing or people. Therefore ,no adverse impact is expected.

( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) Comments: a) The site, located on the south side of Church Street between Malaga Drive and Mayten Avenue, would be served by a fire station located approximately 1 mile from the project site. The project will not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration • of any existing facilities or cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities. Standard conditions of approval from the Uniform Building and Fire Codes will be placed on the project to lessen the future demand and impacts to fire services. No impacts are anticipated. b) The increase in residential units may lead to an increase in calls for service. Although there may be an increase in calls, additional police protection is not required as the addition of the project will not change the pattern of uses within the surrounding area and will not have a substantial increase in property to be patrolled as the project site is within an area that is regularly patrolled. C) The Etiwanda School District and the Chaffey Joint Union High School District serve the project area. Both school districts have been notified regarding the proposed development. A standard condition of approval will require the developer to pay the School Impact Fees. With this standard mitigation, impacts to the School Districts are not considered significant. d) The site is in a developed area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The nearest park, Milliken Park, is located less than 1 mile to the north of the project site. The project will not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing facilities or cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities. In addition to the nearby public park, the site will also provides multiple recreational amenities including a pool and spa, outdoor play areas, an indoor fitness room and an outdoor fitness circuit. A standard condition of approval will require the developer to pay Park Development Fees. No impacts are anticipated. e) The proposed project will utilize existing public facilities.

Cumulative development within Rancho Cucamonga will increase demand for library services. According to the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.14), there will be a projected increase in library space demand but with the implementation of standard conditions, the increase in Library Services would be mitigated to less-than-significant impact. Additionally, the Paul A. Biane Library has an additional 14,000 square foot shell of vacant library space that is planned for future Library use. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. Therefore no adverse impact is expected. 15. RECREATION. Would the project: a) Increase the use of existing neighborhood and ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated? b) Does the project include recreational facilities or ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities, which might have an adverse physical effect • on the environment? Comments: a) The site is in a developed area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The nearest park, Milliken Park, is located less than 1 mile from the project site. This project is not proposing any new housing or large employment generator that would cause an increase in the use of parks or other recreational facilities. A standard condition of approval will require the developer to pay Park Development Fees. No impacts are anticipated. b) See a) response above. 16. TRANSPORTATIONITRAFFIC.

Comments: a) Implementation of the proposed project will generate 2,101 vehicle trips daily based on trip generation rates from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation (8th Addition)for Land Use 220 (Apartments) (LSA Associates Inc., July 2012). The project proposes the development of 306 multi-family dwelling units. As noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.16), continued development will contribute to the traffic load in the Rancho Cucamonga area. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan for • which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. The project is in an area that is mostly developed with street improvements existing or included in the project design. The traffic study (LSA Associates Inc., July 2012) concludes that the intersection at Church Street and Mayten Avenue currently operates at an unsatisfactory level of service. The project site will be required to provide street improvements (curb, gutter and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the site per City roadway standards. In addition, the City has established a Transportation Development fee that must be paid by the applicant prior to issuance of building permits. The fees will be used to install a four-way stop control at the Church Street and Mayten Avenue intersection to bring the level of service to a satisfactory level. Fees are used to fund roadway improvements necessary to support adequate traffic circulation. No impacts are anticipated. b) The traffic study (LSA Associates Inc., July 2012) estimates that the project will generate 161 trips during the a.m. peak hour and 196 trips during the p.m. peak hour In November 2004, San Bernardino County voters passed the Measure I extension which requires local jurisdictions to impose appropriate fees on development for their fair share toward regional transportation improvement projects. On May 18, 2005, the City of Rancho Cucamonga adopted a Comprehensive Transportation Fee Schedule updating these development impact fees. As a result, the San Bernardino County.Congestion Management Agency waived the Congestion Management Plan (CMP) Traffic Impact Analysis reporting requirement. This project will be required, as a condition of approval, to pay the adopted transportation development fee prior to issuance of Building Permit. The project is in an area that is mostly developed with all street improvements existing. The project will not negatively impact the level of service standards on adjacent arterials. The project will be required to provide street improvements (curb, gutter, and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the site. No impacts are anticipated. • C) Located approximately 5 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport, the site is offset north of the flight path and will not change air traffic patterns.

Comments: a) The site is not located in an area of sensitive biological resources as identified on the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan Figure RC-4. Additionally, the area surrounding the site is developed. Based on previous development and street improvements, it is unlikely that any endangered or rare species would inhabit the site. No impacts are anticipated. b) If the proposed project were approved, then the applicant would be required to develop the site in accordance with the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan. The 2010 General Plan was adopted along with the certification of a Program FEIR, Findings of Fact, and a Statement of Overriding Considerations for significant adverse environmental effects of build-out in the City and Sphere-of-Influence. The City made findings that adoption of the General Plan would result in significant adverse effects to Aesthetics, Agriculture and Forest Resources, Air Quality, Climate Change and Mineral Resources. Mitigation measures were adopted for each of these resources; however, they would not reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels. As such, the City adopted a Statement of • Overriding Considerations balancing the benefits of development under the General Plan Update against the significant unavoidable adverse impacts (CEQA Guidelines Section 15092 and 15096(h)). These benefits include less overall traffic volumes by developing mixed-use projects that will be pedestrian friendly and conservation of valuable natural open space. With these findings and the Statement of Overriding Considerations, no further discussion or evaluation of cumulative impacts is required. C) Development of the site under the proposed land use change would not cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly. The Initial Study identifies construction-related emissions of criteria pollutants as having a potentially significant impact. Proposed mitigation measures would further reduce emission levels. Additionally, impacts resulting from air quality would be short term and would cease once construction activities were completed. The Initial Study identified potentially significant impacts associated with the exposure of people to increased noise levels. Mitigation measures contained in this Initial Study will ensure impacts are at less-than-significant levels.

Recitals. 1. Homecoming V at Terra Vista, LLC filed an application for the approval of General Plan Amendment DRC2012-00727, as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the subject Development Review request is referred to as 'the application." 2.. . On the 28th day, of November 2012, the Planning Commission. of the City . of `Rancho Cucamonga conducted a duly,noticed public hearing on the application. . Rather than taking action on the application, the Planning Commission 'remanded the item to the Design Review Committee for further review. It was noted that the item would be re-advertised for a future Planning Commission hearing. 3. On the 9th day of January 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. • 4. 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 hearings on November 28, 2012, and January 9, 2013, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The 19.25-acre vacant project site is located on the south side of Church Street between Mayten Avenue and Malaga Drive; and b. The applicant proposed the development site with a 306-unit market-rate rental condominium project; and C. The site is within Medium High Development District of the Terra Vista Community Plan and has a proposed density of 15.9 dwelling units per acre, which is at the lower end of the permitted density range of 14 to 24 dwelling units per acre; and d. The site is bounded by a multi-family development to the north in the High (H) Wesidential Development District; a vacant lot to the south in the Community Commercial (CC) Development District; a senior housing development to the west in the Mixed Use (MHO) Development D,E,F,&G 154 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 13-05 DRC2012-00727 — HOMECOMING V AT TERRA VISTA, LLC January 9, 2013 Page 2 • District; and a single-family residential development to the east in the Low Medium (LM) and Medium (M) Development District, and e. The applicant requests to amend the General Plan in order to change the land use designation from Mixed Use to Medium High Residential, in line with the Terra Vista Community Plan; and f. The General Plan development designation for the project site was changed from Medium High (MH) residential to Mixed Use (MU) with the 2010 General Plan Update. As part of the 2010 Update, the City identified large vacant parcels along Foothill Boulevard as potential mixed use sites in order to encourage the creation of transit oriented developments; and g. The subject 19.25-acre site, along with the 28-acre parcel to the south, was designated as Mixed Use Planning Site #8. The intent was for the entire site to be developed as an integrated mixed use center with an urban village setting, including pedestrian friendly'gridded street network, large public spaces, and surface parking located behind the buildings; and h. Walmart purchased the entire site prior to the adoption of the new General Plan with the intent on developing a large retail store and selling off the residentially designated 19.25 acres to another developer. Both Walmart and the applicant would like to develop the site in conformance with the Terra Vista Community Plan; and i. Neither wishes to develop an integrated mixed use project as outlined in the General • Plan. The proposed layout will provide a buffer between the existing residential developments to the east, west, and north and the proposed commercial uses to the south; and j. The project also includes an associated Development Review (DRC2012-00726) and Tentative Tract Map (SUBTT18856). 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. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan, Development Code, and the Terra Vista Community Plan; and b. The proposed design or improvements are consistent with the General Plan, Development Code, and the Terra Vista community Plan; and C. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed; and d. The design of the project is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage and avoidable injury to humans and wildlife or their habitat; and e. The project is not likely to cause serious public health problems; and 4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the application, together with all written • and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application, the Planning Commission finds that no subsequent or supplemental environmental document is required pursuant to the California D, E, F,&G 155 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 13-05 DRC2012-00727 — HOMECOMING V AT TERRA VISTA, LLC January 9, 2013 •Page 3 Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in connection with the review and approval of this application based upon the following findings and determinations: a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of the project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, City staff determined that, with the imposition of mitigation measures, there would be no substantial evidence that the project would have a significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, City staff provided public notice of the public comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration. b. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and all comments received regarding the Mitigated Negative Declaration and, based on the whole record before it, finds: (i) that the Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared in compliance with CEQA; and (ii) that,, based on the imposition of mitigation measures, there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning Commission further finds that the Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the Planning Commission. Based on these findings, the Planning Commission hereby adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration. C. The Planning Commission has also reviewed and considered the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project that has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of Public Resources Code •Section 21081.6 and finds that such Program is designed to ensure compliance with the mitigation measures during project implementation. The Planning Commission therefore adopts the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project. d. The custodian of records for the Initial Study, Mitigated Negative Declaration, Mitigation Monitoring Program and all other materials which constitute the record of proceedings upon which the Planning Commission's decision is based is the Planning Director of the City of Rancho Cucamonga.

Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of the project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, City staff determined that, with the imposition of mitigation measures, there would be no substantial evidence that the project would have a significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, City staff provided public notice of the public comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration. b. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and all comments received regarding the Mitigated Negative Declaration and, based on the whole record before it, finds: (i) that the Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared in compliance with CEQA; and (ii) that, based on the imposition of mitigation measures, there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning Commission further finds that the Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the Planning Commission. Based on these findings, the Planning Commission hereby adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration. C. The Planning Commission has also reviewed and considered the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project that has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of Public Resources Code Section 21081.6 and finds that such Program is designed to ensure compliance with the mitigation measures during project implementation.

Recitals. 1. Homecoming V at Terra Vista, LLC filed an application for the approval of Minor Exception DRC2012-00759, as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the subject Development Review request is referred to as "the application." 2. On the 28th day of November 2012, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a duly noticed public hearing on the application. Rather than taking action on the application, the Planning Commission remanded the item to the Design Review Committee for further review. It was noted that the item would be re-advertised for a future Planning Commission hearing. 3. On the 9th day of January 2013, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga �onducted a duly noticed public hearing on the application and concluded said hearing on that date. 4. 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 hearings on November 28, 2012, and January 13, 2013, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The 19.25-acre vacant project site is located on the south side of Church Street between Mayten Avenue and Malaga Drive; and b. The site is within the Medium High Development District of the Terra Vista Community Plan and has a proposed density of 15.9 dwelling units per acre, which is at the lower end of the permitted density range of 14 to 24 dwelling units per acre; and c. The site is bounded by a multi-family development to the north in the High (H) AlftResidential Development District; a vacant lot to the south in the -Community Commercial (CC) evelopment District; a senior housing development to the west in the Mixed Use (MHO) Development District; and a single-family residential development to the east in the Low Medium (LM) and Medium (M) Development District; and D, E, F,&G 219 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO, 13-06 DRC2012-00759 — HOMECOMING V AT TERRA VISTA, LLC January 9, 2013 Page 2 • d. The development is made up of 306 rental condominium units; and e. The applicant filed a Minor Exception (DRC2012-00759) for an additional 2 feet of wall height above the maximum 6 feet permitted by the Development Code. The additional wall height is necessary due to a grade difference between the public right-of-way and the project site and to comply with the recommendations made in the Noise Impact Study; and f. The proposed development also includes an associated Development Review (DRC2012-00726) and subdivision, (SUBTT18856). 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 proposed development is of sufficient size and is designed so as to provide a desirable environment within its own boundaries. In that the without the additional wall height, the residents would be subjected to noise levels in excess of City's noise standards. b. That the proposed development is compatible with the existing and proposed land uses in the surrounding area. In that the additional wall height as seen from the public right-of-way will not be taller that wall heights in the surrounding area. • C. That any exception to or deviations from the density, requirements, or design standards result in the creation of project amenities that would not be available through strict adherence to Code provision. In that it is a common feature to have property line walls around multi-family developments and to allow walls over the 6-foot height limit where on-site grades and elevated noise conditions necessitate the additional wall height. d. That granting the Minor Exception will not adversely affect the interest of the public or interest of the residents and property owners in the vicinity of the premises in question. In that the additional wall height will be most visible to the future residents of the project site and will only have 6-foot of wall height visible as seen from the public right-of-way. e. That the Minor Exception is consistent with the General Plan or any applicable specific plan or development agreement. In that the General Plan and the Terra Vista Community Plan provide flexibility to the regulations where the site conditions cannot otherwise be mitigated. f. That the exception is the minimum required, in that it allows the specified improvement or development to occur, but does not provide additional development rights. In that the additional wall height is the minimum necessary to address the grade change between the project site and the public right-of way and the elevated noise conditions. 4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the application, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application, the Planning Commission finds that no subsequent or supplemental environmental document is required pursuant to the California • Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in connection with the review and approval of this application based upon the following findings and determinations: D,E,F,&G 220 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 13-06 DRC2012-00759 — HOMECOMING V AT TERRA VISTA, LLC January 9, 2013 age 3 a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of the project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, City staff determined that, with the imposition of mitigation measures, there would be no substantial evidence that the project would have a significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, City staff provided public notice of the public comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration. b. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and all comments received regarding the Mitigated Negative Declaration and, based on the whole record before it, finds: (i) that the Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared in compliance with CEQA; and (ii) that, based on the imposition of mitigation measures, there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning Commission further finds that the Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the Planning Commission. Based on these findings, the Planning Commission hereby adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration. C. The Planning Commission has also reviewed and considered the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project that has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of Public Resources Code Section 21081.6 and finds that such Program is designed to ensure compliance with the mitigation measures during project implementation. The Planning Commission therefore adopts the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project. • d. The custodian of records for the Initial Study, Mitigated Negative Declaration, Mitigation Monitoring Program and all other materials which constitute the record of proceedings upon which the Planning Commission's decision is based is the Planning Director of the City of Rancho Cucamonga. Those documents are available for public review in the Planning Department of the City of Rancho Cucamonga located at 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga, California 91730, telephone (909) 477-2750. 5.

PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA BY: Frances Howdyshell, Chairman ATTEST: Candyce Burnett, Senior Planner I, Candyce Burnett, Senior Planner of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, do hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was duly and regularly introduced, passed, and adopted by the Planning • Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, at a regular meeting of the Planning Commission held on the 9th day of January 2013, by the following vote-to-wit: AYES: COMMISSIONERS: NOES: COMMISSIONERS: ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: ABSTAIN: COMMISSIONERS: • D, E, F,&G 222 Van der Zwaag, Tabe From: Joyce Guerra [guerrapj@charter.net] Sent: Sunday, January 06, 2013 7:29 PM To: Van der Zwaag, Tabe Subject: Homecoming V at Terra Vista I am sorry that I cannot make it to the public hearing on January 9 but would like to voice a concern. I am a long time resident of Rancho Cucamonga (since 1969) and have been pleased with the expansion so far and enjoy living here. However, I have a concern. I feel we are trying to cram too many complexes into our city without sufficient planning for parking. I live on the corner of Clarissa and Bunker Hill Drive with my backyard facing Malaga Drive. My concern with the proposed 306 condo units on the south side of Church between Mayten Avenue and Malaga Drive is that we already have residents from the Homecoming apartments parking regularly on Clarissa which is right next to my house. They also park on Bunker Hill Drive across from my house. I very often don't have room for my company to park. If we have 306 more units, where are they going to park? In our neighborhood also? My neighbors and I are not happy about this problem. I do not want my neighborhood parked full with apartment residents parking. In this day and age many apartments or condos have multiple people sharing and have multiple cars. Many apartments or condos have need for at least 3 parking spaces and should be allowed to park in their own complexes. I know that the KB condos on Milliken and Church have a parking problem also. The city needs to remedy this so that they don't overflow into housing neighborhoods. I also would like for you to consider (if you have any input into this problem) having wider parking spaces. My son lived in a Lewis apartment complex on Milliken and the spaces were so small that if there were cars on either side of you, you could not open your door to get out. what good is it to park if you cannot get out of your car? This seem ridiculous to me. I know that builders have more clout than residents do but would like you to take this parking problem into consideration. Money, money, money talks but residents should have some say also. Thank you for taking this problem into consideration.

Mountain Avenue Upland, California 91786 Subject: Responses to Caltrans' Comments on Homecoming Phase 5 Dear Spencer: LSA Associates, Inc. (LSA) is pleased to provide you with the following responses to comments from Caltrans dated January 3,2013 for the Homecoming Phase 5 project in the City of Rancho Cucamonga. Comment 1.Page#1,Introduction: Per the current San Bernardino County Congestion Management Program.(Appendix C,2005 update),the analysis of traffic operations and level of service is to be provided for existing year,project opening year,and future year conditions. Please make sure proposed project is consistent with SANBAG's,CMP guidelines. Response'l. The commenter is correct that based on the SANBAG CMP TIA Guidelines traffic analysis is required for existing, opening year and future year.conditions. However,the guidelines state that a CMP TIA (i.e. a full TIA pursuant with the requirements of the TIA Guidelines) is required when the project generates more than 250 trips during any peak hour. The Guidelines (Appendix C of the SANBAG CMP) state,"TIA Reports shall be prepared by local jurisdictions when local criteria and thresholds indicate they are necessary. However, TIA Reports must be prepared to satisfy CMP requirements, except as noted below, when a proposed change in land use, development project, or at local discretion, a group ofprojects are forecast to equal or exceed the CMP threshold of 250 two-way peak hour trips generated, based on trip generation rates published for the applicable use or uses in the Institute of Transportation Engineers'Trip Generation or other CMA-approved data source". The proposed Homecoming Phase 5 project generates 196 trips during the p.m. peak hour and 161 trips during the a.m. peak hour, which is less than the 250 trip threshold set by SANBAG. In addition,the CMP states that"Jurisdictions that have implemented qualifying development mitigation programs that achieve development contribution requirements established by the SANBAG Development Mitigation Nexus Study are not required to prepare TIA reports for CMA review". The City of Rancho Cucamonga has a Development Mitigation Nexus Study in place.Therefore, an analysis of future conditions is not required for the proposed project. Comment 2. Provide the traffic analysis for build out year of 2036 for all scenarios and the mitigation if needed. Response 2.The 20 year design life requirement is for projects developed by Caltrans and the analysis is not required for private development projects unless mandated by the CMP. PLANNING ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES DESIGN 7; E V LSA ASSOCIATES, INC. Comment 3.Provide the queue length analysis at the intersection of Foothill Blvd (SR-66) I-15 Southbound and Northbound(intersection#9 and#10)for opening year 2016 and build out year 2036. Response 3. In 2016 with project conditions, the average queue lengths are as follows— 1-15 Southbound Ramps/Foothill Boulevard—During the a.m.peak hour, the southbound left turn queue is forecast to be 4 vehicles while the right turn queue is forecast to be 8 vehicles. During the p.m.peak hour,the southbound left turn queue is forecast to be 4 vehicles while the right tum queue is forecast to be 10 vehicles. I-15 Northbound Ramps/Foothill Boulevard—During the a.m. peak hour,the northbound left turn queue is forecast to be 16 vehicles while the right tum queue is forecast to be 10 vehicles. During the p.m. peak hour, the northbound left tum queue is forecast to be 20 vehicles while the right turn queue is forecast to be 11 vehicles. Comment 4. For Table L,the freeway mainline operates at unacceptable LOS"F" in opening year 2016 within corridor study area. Please provide the mitigations. Response 4. To restore satisfactory operations at the locations that operate at unsatisfactory conditions would require capacity enhancing improvements to the freeway. Addition of one northbound lane will improve operations to acceptable LOS. Comment 5. For Table M, the freeway ramp junction at 1-15 Northbound on/off and Foothill Blvd operates at unacceptable LOS "F".Please provide the mitigations. Response 5.To restore satisfactory operations at the locations that operate at unsatisfactory conditions would require capacity enhancing improvements to the freeway. Addition of one northbound lane will improve operations to acceptable LOS. Comment 6.

PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: A. Project Density: 1.54 Dwelling units per acre B. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning: North - Single-Family Residences and Vacant Land; Very Low Residential (1-2 dwelling units per acre) (Etiwanda North Specific Plan) South - Vacant Land; Very Low Residential (1-2 dwelling units per acre) (Etiwanda North Specific Plan) East - Single-Family Residences; Low Residential (2-4 dwelling units per acre) (Etiwanda • Highlands Specific Plan) West - Flood Control Basin; Flood Control Items H, I, & J _ PLANNING.COMMISSION STAFF REPORT SUBTT18823, DRC2012-00135 & DRC2012-00513 — JONATHAN C. CURTIS January 9, 2013 • Page 2 C. General Plan Designations: Project Site - Very Low Residential North - Very Low Residential South - Very Low Residential East - Low Residential West - Flood Control/ Utility Corridor D. Site Characteristics: The project site consists of two rectangular shaped parcels and one puzzle-shaped parcel totaling 12.93 acres of land in the Very Low Residential District within the Etiwanda North Specific Plan. The applicant is proposing to subdivide the parcels into 19 single-family residential lots. The parcels are mostly vacant with two partially-built homes on two of the three parcels and located on the west side of Wardman Bullock Road and south of Blue Sky Court. To the north of the project are vacant flood control land and three single- family residences, to the south is vacant land, and to the east across Wardman Bullock Road are existing single-family residences, and to the west is the flood control basin. ANALYSIS: A. Background: The original subdivision of lots, which included Parcels 0226-081-14 through 16, was approved by the County of San Bernardino prior to incorporating this portion of land into the City of Rancho Cucamonga in 2003. Parcel Map 15550 was later recorded in 2003, and this parcel map subdivided Parcel 0226-081-14, a 4.76-acre lot, into 3 parcels. These parcels • are currently 0226-081-17 through 19. Parcels 0226-081-15 and 16 are also 4.76-acre lots and are currently not a part of this proposal. Both parcels have partially built homes that were permitted by the County, but never finaled. The City of Rancho Cucamonga issued permits to the owner of record in June of 2006. The permits were issued for four of the five single-family residences being constructed at that time. The residence on Parcel 0226-081-18 was permitted and finaled by the County. On September 14, 2011 this project was presented to the Planning Commission at a workshop as Pre-Application DRC2011-00724 (meeting minutes and Staff Report attached). The Commission heard the details of the proposal and the issues concerning this site. The issues were that Lot 10 on Exhibit B of the Site Plan for the Pre-Application did not meet the required lot depth of the Development District, and an equestrian trail is required at the rear of the properties and not the front as they are on Lots 9, 10 and 11. The Fire District raised concerns with the length of the cul-de-sac for Street A as it exceeds the maximum length; however this was resolved with access to Blue Sky Court via an access easement at the end of Street A. B. General: The project site is located within the Etiwanda Highlands themed neighborhood of the Etiwanda North Specific Plan. The applicant is required to develop within substantial compliance with the Etiwanda North Specific Plan (ENSP), incorporating the architecture and design details of the Etiwanda area. Within this themed area the applicant is required to construct walls that correspond with the other walls in the surrounding area. The community wall along the perimeter of the site along Wardman Bullock Road will consist of a stucco covered block wall with pilasters wrapped in brick veneer spaced every 40 to 60 feet. Both • the wall and pilasters will be topped with concrete caps. Access into the housing tract will be Items H, I ,&J 2 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT SUBTT18823, DRC2012-00135 & DRC2012-00513 — JONATHAN C. CURTIS • January 9, 2013 Page 3 accomplished at two points. Both proposed points of access are off Wardman Bullock Road and the streets will be cul-de-sacs with gated entry points. The proposed subdivision consists of 2 lettered lots and 19 single-family, residential numbered lots and a dedication to the public right-of-way on Wardman Bullock Road. A tentative parcel map was recently approved by the Planning Commission on October 10, 2012, creating a puzzle-shaped remainder parcel that is the northern portion of this subdivision. Most lots meet the required average width of 90 feet and minimum depth of 150 feet. Only Lot 9 does not meet the minimum depth as it is only 124 feet deep. The block wall on the north tract boundary of the proposed tentative tract map requires a Minor Exception to increase the height of the wall from 6 feet to 8 feet as part of the Fire Protection Plan. The Minor Exception will be processed concurrently with the tentative tract map. A Minor Exception is also required for portions of the perimeter walls on Lots 9 and 10 to accommodate the grade changes on the south side property lines. The maximum height of these retaining walls will be 2 feet, 9 inches (2'-9") with a 6-foot (6'-0") garden wall atop to provide security along the neighboring trail. The proposed subdivision also has two existing partially-built homes on proposed Lots 12 and 15 that are driving the design of the subdivision and limit the size of Lots 11-16. These lots will not be able to accommodate equestrian amenities as they will not be able to meet the • minimum requirements for locations of corrals from residential units. The trails are located at the rear of all the lots except these lots as they will not be allowed to keep horses on site. The equestrian lots have a minimum of a 15-foot wide equestrian trail easement that runs along the west and north tract boundary and are proposed to be 21 feet wide for trail and emergency access. The west and south side of the trail will have three-rail PVC trail fencing. The rear yards throughout the tract will have 6-foot high block walls. Trails along Wilson Avenue and Wardman Bullock Road will be 15 feet wide with three-rail PVC trail fencing along the street sides of the trail. Access to the private trail along the rear of the lots is yet to be established. The applicant of this proposed subdivision is requesting to access the trails via the tract to the south. Permission has not been granted to date. Staff has placed a condition in the Resolution of Approval which requires the reciprocal access agreement be obtained prior to recordation of the final map or issuance of a grading permit, whichever occurs first. C. Design Review Committee: Design Review Committee (Fletcher, Oaxaca, Granger) reviewed the project on November 6, 2012 and recommended approval to the Planning Commission with the recommendation that they work with property to the south for an access agreement. D. Technical and Grading Review Committees: The Technical Review reviewed the project on November 6, 2012 and recommended approval to the Planning Commission. E. Trails Advisory Committee: The Trails Advisory Committee (TAC) (Howdyshell, Wimberly, Reynolds, Bloom) reviewed the project on December 12, 2012. Because of the lack of a quorum a recommendation could not be made at that time. The committee members present • felt that the project met the requirements of the Trail Implementation Plan. The item was rescheduled for review by the TAC at their regular meeting held earlier this evening (January 9, 2013). Because the project is being reviewed just prior to the Planning Commission Items H, I ,&J 3 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT SUBTT18823, DRC2012-00135 & DRC2012-00513 — JONATHAN C. CURTIS January 9, 2013 • Page 4 meeting, an oral report of their recommendation will be presented at the Planning Commission meeting tonight. F. Neighborhood Meeting: The applicant held a neighborhood meeting on December 17, 2012 at Summit Intermediate School; only one couple attended the meeting. The couple resides on Blue Sky Court adjacent to the project. They inquired about the design and layout of the project and appeared satisfied with the developer's responses. G. Minor Exception DRC2012-00513: The applicant submitted a Minor Exception request as part of their application to subdivide the project site because a specific development standard is not being met. Within the residential district requirements of the Development Code, residential development standards require decorative masonry block walls be a maximum of 6 feet in height. The applicant is requesting to exceed the maximum requirement on Lots 1, 9, and 10. Facts For Findings: The purpose of a Minor exception is to allow creative design solutions and to accommodate unique site conditions. The Development Code allows for a Minor Exception procedure for the consideration of increasing the maximum wall height by 2 feet, pursuant to Section 17.16.110-1. This application contemplates a wall for Lot 1 along the north property line to be 8 feet in height and another retaining wall with a garden wall on Lots 9 and 10 to be calculated at 7 feet 4 inches. In order to grant a request for a Minor Exception, a series of findings must be made. Generally, these findings focus on unique or special • circumstances applicable to a specific property. The following are facts to support the necessary findings: 1. Finding: That the proposed development is of sufficient size and is designed so as to provide a desirable environment within its own boundaries Facts: Increasing the wall height by two feet will provide better fire protection on Lot 1. Increasing the height on Lots 9 and 10 with a retaining wall of 2 feet 8 inches (calculated height of 1 foot, 4 inches) will maintain privacy along the southern lot lines. 2. Finding: That the proposed development is compatible with existing and proposed land uses in the surrounding area. Facts: The applicant is proposing a residential subdivision as part of this application. There are residential developments to the north and east of the project with a proposed residential tract proposed to the.south. This application will allow for the privacy and improved fire protection for future residents. 3. Finding: Any exceptions to or deviation from the density, requirements, or design standards result in the creation of project amenities that would not be available through strict adherence to Code provisions (e.g., additional open space, protection of natural resources, improved pedestrian connectivity, public plazas). • Items H, I ,&J 4 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT SUBTT18823, DRC2012-00135 & DRC2012-00513 —JONATHAN C. CURTIS • January 9, 2013 Page 5 Facts: The Minor Exception will not constitute a grant of special privilege or amenity not available to other properties classified in the same district, and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. The Minor Exception will allow a wall to provide fire protection for Lot 1 and a 6 foot tall privacy wall for Lots 9 and 10, with the addition of the retaining wall. These are amenities other parcels in the area also enjoy. 4. Finding: That the granting of the Minor exception will not adversely affect the interest of the public or the interest of the residents and property owners in the vicinity of the premises in question. Facts: The increased heights will be located along the tract boundary and will be architecturally compatible with the existing walls in the area. 5. Finding: The Minor Exception is consistent with the General Plan and the Etiwanda North Specific Plan. Facts: The granting of the Minor Exception helps encourage new development by allowing the applicant to provide privacy and fire protection to the specified lots that is enjoyed by the other lots in the area. • 6. Findings: The Minor Exception is the minimum required in that it allows the specified improvement to occur, but does not provide additional development rights. Facts: The granting of the Minor Exception does not provide a special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties classified in the same district as all properties shall meet the minimum fire protection allowed by a particular plan and be allowed to have the same level of privacy as other residential lots in the area. H. Variance DRC2012-00135: The applicant has submitted a Variance request as part of their application to subdivide the project site because of a deficiency of the lot depth. Within the Very Low Residential District of the Etiwanda North Specific Plan, residential development standards (ENSP §12.2.1 (Table 10)) require each lot to meet the 90-foot minimum lot width and 150-foot minimum lot depth requirement. Here, all lots exceed those minimum development standards, with the exception of Lot 9, which proposes a 197-foot lot width and 124-foot lot depth. Facts For Findings: The purpose of a Variance is to provide flexibility from the strict application of development standards. In order to grant a request for a Variance, the Planning Commission must make a series of findings. Generally, these findings focus on unique or special circumstances applicable to a specific property. The following are facts to support the necessary findings: • Items H, I ,&J 5 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT SUBTT18823, DRC2012-00135 & DRC2012-00513 — JONATHAN C. CURTIS January 9, 2013 • Page 6 1. Findin : That strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship inconsistent with the objective of this Code. Facts: The lot meets the minimum requirements for lot area. The lot is oriented with the long side parallel to the street and the shorter sides perpendicular to the street which makes the lot depth short of the required 150 feet by 26 feet. The current orientation was utilized to design the tract around an existing single-family residence constructed north of the proposed lot along the south boundary of the project site. The project will still meet the requirements for the private street. The lot will still be able to provide all the amenities that the other lots in the area contain but will be oriented differently. 2. Finding: That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved or the intended use of the property that do not apply generally to other properties in the same zone. Facts: The lot was designed to meet the minimum requirements of the Development Code but it is oriented opposite of the lots to the north and west but similar design to Lot 10. The lot is oriented with the long side parallel to the street and the shorter sides perpendicular to the street which makes the lot depth short of the required 150 feet by 26 feet. • 3. Finding: That strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the same zone. Facts: The. applicant can meet the spirit of the Code by providing a lot that has a similar measurement as adjacent lots. With the exception of the minimum lot depth requirement, the proposed subdivision was designed to meet all applicable development standards of the Etiwanda North Specific Plan. The proposed subdivision provides for the development of homes that will be architecturally compatible with surrounding properties, and provide the potential for equestrian use consistent with surrounding properties. The applicant has designed the subdivision to provide the maximum lot sizes and depths achievable within the constraints of the property, and the minimum lot depth has been achieved on all lots except Lot 9. Accordingly, a strict interpretation and enforcement of the minimum lot depth requirement would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the district. 4. Finding: That the granting of the Variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties classified in the same district. Facts: The applicant has designed the subdivision to provide the maximum lot depths achievable within the constraints of the property and creates an equestrian community compatible with adjacent developments. The granting • of the Variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with Items H, I ,&J 6 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT SUBTT18823, DRC2012-00135 & DRC2012-00513 — JONATHAN C. CURTIS • January 9, 2013 Page 7 the limitations on other properties in the district because the configuration of the proposed subdivision is compatible with Lot 10. The lot will also have to meet all the setback and height requirements of the district. 5. Finding: That the granting of the Variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. Facts: The grant of the Variance will only reduce the lot depth and all other Development Code requirements will still have to be adhered to all other requirements. I. Environmental Assessment: Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of the project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, City staff determined that, with the imposition of mitigation measures related to air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, geology and soils, hazards and waste materials, hydrology and water quality, and noise, there would be no substantial evidence that the project would have a significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, the City staff provided public notice of the public comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration. A Mitigation Monitoring Program has also been prepared to ensure implementation of, and compliance with, the mitigation measures for the project. • CORRESPONDENCE: This item was advertised as a public hearing in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were mailed to all property owners within a 660-foot radius of the project site.

Troyer, AICD, Planning Director BY: Steve Fowler, Assistant Planner SUBJECT: PRE-APPLICATION REVIEW DRC2011-00724 - JONATHAN C. CURTIS -A request to review Tentative Tract Map 18823 for consistency with the North Etiwanda Specific Plan, The site is a 13.52-acre remnant parcel of a larger 15.03-acre parcel which was previously divided into 5 parcels under Recorded Parcel Map 15550, located within the Very Low (VL) Residential District of the North Etiwanda Specific Plan on the west side of Wardman Bullock Road at Blue Sky Court-APN• 0226-081-15 through 17 . PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: A. Surrounding Land Use and Zonina: North - Vacant County Conservation Land; Very Low Residential, Etiwanda North Specific Plan South - Vacant County Conservation Land; Very Low Residential, Etiwanda North Specific Plan East - Single-Family Residential; Very Low Residential, Etiwanda North Specific Plan • West - Vacant County Conservation Land; Very Low Residential, Etiwanda North Specific Plan B. General Plan Designations: Project Site - Very Low Residential North - Very Low Residential South - Very Low Residential East - Very Low Residential West - Very Low Residential C. Site Characteristics: The site is a puzzle-shaped parcel that is part of an overall project that is rectangular shaped. The project area is 13.52 acres located on the west side of Wardman Bullock Road and south of Blue Sky Court. The site currently has three partially built homes on 3 of the parcels. Two other homes were built on Blue Sky Court and those parcels are not a part of this proposal. Currently, Centex Homes is processing Tentative Tract Map SUB7718741 (south of this site) that will subdivide two parcels into 53 lots by Centex Homes. The project site is bordered on the north and west by San Bernardino County Flood Control District owned properties that have been set aside as resource conservation areas. ANALYSIS: A. Background: The original subdivision of lots, which included Parcels 0226-061-14 through 16, was approved by the County of San Bernardino prior to incorporating this portion of land into the City of Rancho Cucamonga in 2003. Parcel Map 15550 was later recorded in 2003, and this parcel map subdivided Parcel 0226-081-14, a 4.76-acre lot, into 3 parcels. These parcels • EXHIBIT D Items H, I ,&J 15 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT PRE-APPLICATION REVIEW DRC2011-00724—JONATHAN C. CURTIS • September 14, 2011 Page 2 are currently 0226-081-17 through 19. Parcels 0226-081-15 and 16 are also 4.76-acre lots and are currently not a part of this proposal. Both parcels have partially built homes that were permitted by the County, but never finaled. The City of Rancho Cucamonga issued permits to the owner of record in June of 2006. The permits were issued for four of the five single-family residences being constructed at that time. The residence on Parcel 0226-081-18 was permitted and finaled by the County. B. General: The workshop applicant requests that the Planning Commission review the possibility of subdividing Parcels 0226-081-15 through 17 into 20 residential lots. The site falls within the Etiwanda North Speck Plan (ENSP). The applicant is required to develop within substantial compliance of this Specific Plan, incorporating the architecture and design details of the Etiwanda area. Each area in the ENSP falls within a themed neighborhood. These parcels are located within the Etiwanda Highland Neighborhood. Within this area the applicant is required to provide local trails that provide access to the community trail system along Etiwanda Creek wash and the upper utility corridor. Along Wardman Bullock Road, the neighborhood theme wall is a stucco design with a concrete cap and brick veneer pilasters every 40 to 60 feet and shall be featured to keep this site consistent with the site boundaries that are adjacent. The zoning designation for this area is Very Low Residential of the ENSP. The designation requires that each lot a have minimum net average of 25,000 square feet and a minimum of • 20,000 square feet. The smallest lot is 20,080 square feet and the average lot size of all the lots is 25,069 square feet. Both of these meet the minimum requirements. The minimum requirement for lot depth is 150 feet, and all lots except for Lot 10 meet this requirement. Lot 10 would require a Variance to meet this requirement or the tract map would need to be revised. The proposed minimum lot width of 90 feet at the required front setback of 42 feet has also been met. Lots 1, 13, and 16 all are proposed with the partially built homes on them, and they meet the respective side yard setbacks of 10 feet and 20 feet. The front yard setback of 42 feet average +/- 5 feet is being met on the three homes. The density range for the Very Low Residential district is 0-2 dwelling units per acre, and this development is at 1.55 dwelling units per acre. The structures on Lots 13 and 16 exceed the maximum lot coverage average of 25 percent. These lots would require a Variance for lot coverage. The site is required to provide a 15-foot wide local trail to connect to the community trail system. The applicant is requesting that Lots 1 and 12 through 17 be classified as non-equestrian lots as they do not contain areas that will allow the construction of a corral area. Lots 1, 13, and 16 are either over the allowable lot coverage or close to exceeding the lot coverage, thus not allowing the construction of corrals for the protection of the horses. Lots 10 and 11 have a trail that is located in the front of the residences, which is discouraged.

CURTIS September 14, 2011 Page 3 Lots 18 through 20 are through lots that are proposed to front onto a SOD-foot cul-de- sac that is 50 feet wide. The Etiwanda Specific Plan does not allow a 50-foot wide street; only a 60-foot wide street is permitted. Increasing the size of both proposed streets would reduce the average lot size and may require the applicant to reduce the number of lots to increase the minimum lot size average. Both the Engineering and Fire Departments have concerns about the length of the cul-de-sac for Street A, as it exceeds the maximum length. The Fire and Engineering Departments would prefer to see it loop onto Blue Sky Court to create two points of access for those homes. A Grading Plan was not included with this submittal; therefore, grading comments were not included in this report. The Engineering and Fire Department's comments have been attached to this report for review (Exhibits D and E). CONCLUSION In conclusion, the layout has many issues and challenges which need to be addressed before this project can move forward, by either reconfiguring the layout to adhere to the Code or applying for Variances where it may not be possible to redesign do to constraints already existing on the site, including the buildings under construction, There are many options that can be examined and utilized to achieve compliance with the governing documents of this area.

Parcel Map No. 15550 (PM 15550) created two numbered lots totaling 1.51 acres and a remainder parcel of 3.50 acres (APN 0226-081-17). There are two additional parcels within TTM 18823, APN 0226-081-15 and 16, 5.00 acres and 5.02 acres, respectively. PM 15550 also created Blue Sky Court, a private street, which is contained entirely within PM 15550. Five houses were constructed by the former developer on each of the lots within PM 15550 and in each of the three adjacent assessor's parcels. Only one house, on lot 1 of PM 15550, was sold; the other four houses are in various stages of completion, ranging from approximately eighty percent to ninety-plus percent. TTM 18823 proposes to accomplish several Items: • To create lots that will accommodate the three existing houses on the three assessor's parcels; • To create lots that will meet the criteria in the North Etiwanda Specific Plan (North Etiwanda • Specific Plan) development standards; • To create as many lots as possible that will have adequate depths (190'1 minimum, 200'± average) to accommodate equestrian corrals; • To provide multipurpose trails to all equestrian lots; • To meet the average lot size of 25,000 square feet per the VL zoning in the North Etiwanda Specific Plan; • To provide fire protection for all of the lots; • To complete the improvements on Wardman Bullock Road as an early priority when construction begins. TTM 18823 provides seven non-equestrian lots, three of which contain partially-completed houses. Two of the partially-constructed homes constrain the four adjacent lot depths to the 160'± depth. The other thirteen lots have adequate depth (190'±) to provide proper clearances between corral areas and habitable structures, EXHIBIT A °•• VOILE: 949-431-6641 • }}}'''}}} J / } FAX: 969.451.0316 G:1314wotgenvrojeLt Description.doL IP/11/ Items H, I ,&J 18 • Pt AN N ER $ fNG IN r f PS $ VRV IYDRS w 0 Ice.beabd.rn7 ' Ir Wnr,ea Ovinre�• and Cor... The lots range in size from 20,080 square feet (Lot 1 2) to 40,924 square feet (Lot 2), averaging 25,069 square feet. The non-equestrian lots will have minimum lot depths of 160 feet while the equestrian lots will have a minimum lot depth of 190 feet, with most of them having or exceeding the 200-foot depth. TTM 18823 will coordinate boundary line conditions with TTM 18741 (Centex) to the south for such things as trail and wall locations, drainage facilities, and grading. The receiver for the property, Jonathan C. Curtis, is working on completing the site improvements for Blue Sky Court and Wardman Bullock Road fronting PM 15550', as well as finishing the house on Parcel 2 of PM 15550. • • Stanley C.Mane 17320 R.dh;II b.nrr VOICE: 949.261.8821 $.0.360 tA%: 9 -2 -0516 C:\814\00\gen\ProjeC1 Descrip0on.doc 1.R.'Skip"Schultz Irvb.,CA 92614 vrw.r.ad,c..,vllin9•,wl I ems H, I ,&J 19 i A.F.P9. �9;[�ct•Gaf71-1� y.b.�.�.�.Ya. - 8' MCH FIRE WA 6,Pe9. 9A. i555CD 1 N 89'31'47'89'31'47' E 5756 PROACF SIfE • 2i�' 12 n r.r 127 C i- 61 DRAWMI FASEwR'- LJ' r.

Developer proposes 50-foot rights-of-way with 2-foot sidewalk easements on both sides. The Etiwanda North Specific Plan does not provide for reduced rights-of-way for rural streets like the Etiwanda Specific Plan does. Tracts on the east side of Wardman Bullock, which annexed into the City with a development agreement in the late 1980s, have reduced rights-of-way. However development to the north and proposed development to the south does not. a. In addition,they are only showing a 9-foot parkway with 4.5 feet between the back of curb and sidewalk. City standard is a 12-foot parkway with a 7-foot planting area. This reduced area will restrict the size and type of street trees that can be used. 2. One of the cul-de-sacs exceeds 600 feet in length without a second point of access. The developer is proposing a 20-foot private trail and emergency access easement to Blue Sky • Court, an existing private street. Developer shall obtain written approval for this approach from the owners of occupied Parcels 1 and 2 of Parcel Map 15550 prior to Planning Commission approval of the tentative map. If he is unable to do so, the street layout will need to be reconfigured to the satisfaction of the Fire District. a. We understand the possibility of a loop with the private street is also being discussed. 3. Adjacent property to the south, at northwest comer of Wardman Bullock Road and Wilson Avenue (Tentative Tract 18741) is also being reviewed by staff. This could present an opportunity to obtain access from the south, if doing so would lead to a more optimal lot configuration per the zoning requirements and reduce the variance request. However, SURTT18741 has been in the process for some time so such a request would need to be clearly justified. a. There may also be an opportunity to coordinate the design of the private equestrian trail on Lots 9-11, along the south tract boundary, with SUBTT18741. 4. Wardman Bullock Road is a Collector Street, so no driveways will be allowed. 5. Tract 16324 at the north end of Wardman Bullock Road has been conditioned to complete the westerly portion of Wardman Bullock all the way to Wilson Avenue. If the Wardman Bullock frontage is constructed by others, this developer will be required to pay his fair share of the reimbursement agreement. 6. Provide a preliminary drainage report that addresses the sizing of facilities along the west tract boundary needed to have the current Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) Zone "D' designation removed from the project area. • EXHIBIT, ?/ 10f1 PG 144 �� Items H, I ,&J 22 AhRancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District Fire Construction Services PRE-APPLICATION REVIEW COMMENTS July 28, 2011 Coyote Moon, LLC SFR Subdivision, VFHSZ Tentative Tract 18823 DRC2011-00724 Fire Construction Services (PCS) has reviewed your plans for a residential subdivision on the west side of Wardman Bullock Rd. Following are the observations that have been made based on current state and local Fire codes. 1. This project is located in the VFIFHSZ; please have a Hire Protection Plan prepared to access and mitigate the fire risk to this development. Please note that off site vegetation management docs not appear feasible (except on the south side). This plan must be reviewed and approved before Fire Construction Services deem rhe subdivision's • tentative Map complete. 2. The configuration of the street layout is not conforming to the Rancho Cucamonga Development Code; the cul-de-sac exceeds the maximum permitted length of 600'. In your redesign, it is recommended that street A extends to Blue Sky Court as a thru street and the owners of the properties on Blue Sky Court are approached to dedicate Blue Sky Court and convert to a public street. 3. Call Janet Walker at (909) 477-2770 ext, 3003 to confirm that the parcels are annexed into Fire Distnces Community Facilities District 88-1. If the parcels are not annexed, the process must be started, 4. Provide afire flow letter to proof the required fire flow of 1500 GPM @ 20psi. 5. Clearly indicate on the plans that the buildings will be equipped with automatic fire sprinklers.

ROLL CALL COMMISSIONERS: PRESENT: Richard Fletcher, Frances Howdyshell,Lou Munoz, Francisco Oaxaca; Ray Wimberly ABSENT: Francisco Oaxaca STAFF PRESENT: Steven Flower,Assistant City Attorney; Steve Fowler,Assistant Planner;Dan James, Senior Civil Engineer; Lois Schrader, Planning Commission Secretary; James Troyer, Planning Director ANNOUNCEMENTS None NEW BUSINESS A. PRE-APPLICATION REVIEW DRC2011-00724-JONATHAN C.CURTIS-A request to review Tentative Tract Map 18823 for consistency with the North Etiwanda Specific Plan. The site is e 13.52 acre remnant parcel of a larger 15.03 acre parcel which was previously divided into 5 parcels under Recorded Parcel Map 15550, located within the Very Low (VL) Residential District of the North Etiwanda Specific Plan on the west side of Wardman Bullock Road at Blue Sky Court-APN: 0226-081-15 though 17. John Curtis of Trevear Holdings LLC introduced his team including Brenda Vargas and Stan Morse of MDS Consulting. Mr. Curtis stated that he was appointed the receiver by the court for the property. He said they have been working with Planning, Building and Safety and Engineering towards a workable solution. He gave an overview of the prior development noting that work started about 10 years ago resulting in one house on Blue Sky and the property owner has 4 lots. He said the original plans for the homes came through the County and permits were issued by the City many years ago. He said there are different owners and his objective is to clean up a mess, do some site planning to try to move forward. He said they have attempted to consider the size of the lots, home and street placement, horsetrails etc. Commissioner Fletcher asked if all 4 properties are owned by the bank. Mr. Curtis said there are 4 legal owners but it is really owned by the same people. He said as receiver, the bank takes over the entire property and he has full jurisdiction over the property. He • Items H, I ,&J 24 said the bank wants us (Mr. Curtis and team) to fix it, as they really don't want to foreclose on the • property. He said they would not build out the rest of the lots although they are trying to finish the two lots that were left partially built, and then the other lots would probably be sold off later. Commissioner Fletcher asked if there are legal difficulties considering there are four different owners. Mr. Curtis explained that there is one court order for the entire property and only one signature is needed (his) so that it is not so tricky in that regard. Chairman Munoz asked ff there are any plans for the short term. Mr. Curtis said the plan is to finish off and sell off the property. Vice Chairman Howdyshell said she recalls that the one existing house appears to be the same or very similar to the other two partially built homes. Mr, Curtis said they are basically the same. Vice Chairman Howdyshell confirmed that the intent is to complete them and then with the completion of the tract they would have 5 homes completed. Chairman Munoz asked what they anticipate as issues with 4 applicants. Mr. Curtis said they already identified a need for several variances and minor modifications. Stan Morse, MDS Consulting said an issue is how to work with the existing houses and streets. He • said for Lot 10 they have to define the depth and for Lot 11 they would have to have frontage along Street B but the front yard setback would be from Wardman Bullock. He said the mid-lots do not fit the rules for equestrian because they cannot fit the corrals in there. He said those lots maybe able to access a trail they believe will be installed by Centex and if that plan fails,they do have a fallback position. He noted the issues to follow: • Some interior lots (tan colored on the plans) are not equestrian-Lot 1 is not large enough. He said they have some lots with minor exceptions. • With respect to 50-foot street widths—He suggested they give the City the streets they want but they would be 36 feet curb to curb with a parkway, and an easement inside the property lines. He said it would look like a 60-foot wide street but it would be contained within a 50-foot width with a 4 -foot sidewalk easement on each side of the street. • If they are unable to gain right of way via quitclaim for the knuckle property, then emergency access to the other culdesac will be provided. Vice Chairman Howdyshell said she is encouraged to see the vision as the property is currently a real eyesore. Commissioner Munoz said it looks like a fairly good plan to correct a not-so-easy problem. Mr. Morse said that because of the street placements, it made it neatly impossible. He said they need a Variance on Lot 10 for lot depth: and a Minor Exception for Lot 2 for lot coverage and then they need a by off from the Fire Department for two points of access with respect to the knuckle property. He noted that the property owner on Lot 1 of Parcel Map 15550 is somewhat content with his solitude and has not really indicated what he wants or would accept. • PC Adjourned Minutes -2- September 14, 2011 Items H, I ,&J 25 Mr. Fowler said the Fire Department is looking for two means of access. He said with respect to the 50 foot widths-if they are required to go to 60 feet, then the lots will be below the required 25,000- • square foot average lot size-and that would result in another Variance or loss of parcels. He said on Lots 16, 19 and 20 they could take 10 feet off and still meet the required lot depths. Mr. Morse said Street B would be an issue and typically they would not want a trail in front of the lots, but they should talk with Centex and see if they will allow those lots to use their trail access. Mr. Troyer noted that the Commission only needs to direct staff to investigate the issues and to see what works. Mr. Fowler asked Mr. Curtis if they have considered leveling the two partially complete houses. Mr. Curtis said so much money has been put into them. He said there is value associated with those and it is also helping them to get it cleaned up faster. Dan James, Senior Civil Engineer said those two homes can not receive occupancy until those streets are developed. Mr. Morse noted they are currently cleaning up trash piles, mountains of block and winterizing the site. Commissioner Fletcher said to get as much compliance they can find with the Specific Plan. He said he is not opposed to the Variance idea, but he would want to see access to the trail. He suggested they adjust the lot lines to make it work with the Specific Plan without all these changes and Variances and bring the street through with the knuckle property (see Lots 1 and 20). Vice Chairman Howdyshell noted the interior lots are too small for equestrian and not having them • adds a nice mix. Commissioner Fletcher said that with that in mind, he is not opposed to a Variance to forget about those lots being equestrian lots. Mr. Fowler said the properties along the Centex (south) property line will be equestrian with that access. Vice Chairman Howdyshell said she agrees with the other commissioners, that perhaps once the owner of the knuckle property sees the benefit he will gain by punching through the knuckle, he will cooperate to allow the street to come through. Commissioner Wimberly noted that the proposed plan is mapped for 20 lots. He asked if they could consider fewer units. Mr. Morse said they are constricted with trying to map around the partially built homes. He said they have done other studies with more lots but they want the lots to be legitimate lots with trails. He said they are not driven by the number of lots. Commissioner Wimberly noted that they need to justify alt those Variances. Mr. Curtis noted that they have very unique circumstances and they are trying to minimize the number of Variances. Mr. Troyer said no commitments are being made here but if we can make findings to support the Variances then they will be brought to the Commission for consideration. PC Adjourned Minutes -3- September 14, 2011 • Items H, I ,&J 26 Chairman Munoz suggested Mr. Curtis work with staff to see what they can workout and to minimize • Variances where possible. He said tonight's workshop is a pre-application and they have work to do; no guarantees. Mr. Morse said they will start negotiating in earnest with the one property owner with respect to punching through the knuckle to gain a proper connection between Blue Sky Court and Street A. Commissioner Fletcher said that if they have to wipe out the partially built houses, he did not have a problem with that and he would prefer they meet all the requirements of the Specific Plan. Mr. Curtis said they want proper planning in the end.

AESTHETICS. Would the project: a) Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a State Scenic Highway? c) Substantially degrade the existing visual character or ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) quality of the site and its surroundings? d) Create a new source of substantial light or glare, ( ) ( ) (✓) ( ) which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area? Comments: a) There are no significant vistas within or adjacent to the project site. The site is not within a view corridor according to General Plan Figure LU-6. b) The project site contains no scenic resources and no historic buildings within a State Scenic Highway. There are no State Scenic Highways within the City of Rancho • Cucamonga. c) The site is located on the west side of Wardman Bullock Road generally south of Blue Sky Court and is characterized by 3 single-family dwelling units on Blue Sky Court which is along the north property line, with single-family residential development to the east, vacant land to the south and west. The visual quality of the area will not degrade as a result of this project because the project is consistent with the area and there are existing single- family residences on three sides of the project site. Design review is required prior to approval and is consistent with the Development Code and Design Guidelines by meeting the minimum lot dimensions and lot sizes. City standards require the developer to underground existing and new utility lines and facilities to minimize the unsightly appearance of overhead utility lines and utility enclosures in accordance with Planning Commission Resolution No. 87-96, unless exempted by said Resolution. d) The project would increase the number of streetlights and security lighting used in the immediate vicinity. The design and placement of light fixtures will be shown on site plans which require review for consistency with City standards that require shielding, diffusing, or indirect lighting to avoid glare. Lighting will be selected and located to confine the area of illumination to within the project site. The impact is not considered significant. 2. AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES. Would the project: a) Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or ( ) ( ) (✓) ( ) Farmland of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency, to non-agricultural use? • b) Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) Williamson Act contract?

Comments: a) The site is not designated as Prime Farmlands, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance. The site is located on the west side of Wardman Bullock Road generally south of Blue Sky Court and is characterized by 3 single-family dwelling units on Blue Sky Court which is along the north property line, with single-family residential development to the east, vacant land to the south and west. There are approximately 209 • acres of Farmland of Local Importance, Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance within the City of Rancho Cucamonga according to the General Plan and the California Department of Conservation Farmland Map 2010. Concentrations of Important Farmland are sparsely located in the southern and eastern parts of the City that is characterized by existing and planned development. Farmland in the southern portion of the City is characterized by industrial, residential, and commercial land uses and farmland in the eastern portion of the City is within the Etiwanda area and planned for development. Further, a large number of the designated farmlands parcels are small, ranging from 3 acres to 30 acres, and their economic viability is doubtful; therefore, they are not intended to be retained as farmland in the General Plan Land Use Plan. The General Plan FPEIR identified the conversion of farmlands to urban uses as a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. b) There is no agriculturally zoned land within the City of Rancho Cucamonga. There are no Williamson Act contracts within the City. C) There are no lands within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that is zoned as forest land or timberland. Therefore no impacts would occur related to the conversion of forest land to non-forest use. Further, there are no areas within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that are zoned as forest land, timberland, or Timberland Production. No mitigation is required. d) There are no lands within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that qualify as forest land or timberland. Therefore no impacts would occur related to the loss or conversion of forest land to non-forest use. Further, there are no areas within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that are zoned as forest land, timberland, or Timberland Production. • e) The site is located on the west side of Wardman Bullock Road generally south of Blue Sky Court and is characterized by 3 single-family dwelling units on Blue Sky Court which is along the north property line, single-family residential development to the east, and vacant Items H, I ,&J 59 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 6 Less Than • Signif-nl Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: potentially With an pf g Significant Mitigation Significant No mpac( ncofDOfaIEO Im a01 Impact land to the south and west. Although there is grazing land adjacent to the north and west boundaries of the project site this area has been isolated from the wildlife interface by the construction of a flood control basin to the west and the construction of homes to the north, south, and east of the project site. There are no lands within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that qualify as forest land. Therefore, there is no potential for conversion of forest land to a non-forest use. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. 3. AIR QUALITY. Would the project: a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) applicable air quality plan? b) Violate any air quality standard or contribute O (✓) O ( ) substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation? C) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable Federal or State ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions that exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors? d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) • concentrations? e) Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) number of people? Comments: a) As noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.3), the proposed project would not interfere with the region's ability to comply with Federal and State air quality standards for Criterion 1 Increase in the Frequency or Severity of Violations (local air quality impacts) or Criterion 2 Exceed Assumptions in the AQMP (consistency with the 2003 AQMP). Therefore the project is consistent with the 2003 AQMP and is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. b) Both the State of California and the federal government have established health-based ambient air quality standards (AAQS) for seven air pollutants. These pollutants include ozone (03), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), coarse particulate matter with a diameter or 10 microns or less (PM10), fine particulate matter less than 2.5 (PM2,5) microns in diameter and lead. Among these pollutants, ozone and particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) are considered regional pollutants while the others have more localized effects. In addition, the State of California has set standards for sulfates, hydrogen sulfide (1-12S), vinyl chloride and visibility reducing particles. These standards are designed to protect the health and welfare of the populace with a reasonable margin of safety. The City of Rancho Cucamonga area is within the South Coast Air Basin, which is under the jurisdiction of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). The • California Clean Air Act (CCAA) provides the SCAQMD with the authority to manage transportation activities at indirect sources. Indirect sources of pollution are generated when minor sources collectively emit a substantial amount of pollution. Examples of this Items H, I ,&J 60 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 7 • Less Tian Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially With Than PP 9 significant Mitigalion Slgnificem No Impact Incorporatetl Impact Impact include motor vehicles at an intersection, a mall and on highways. SCAQMD also regulates stationary sources of pollution within a jurisdictional area. Direct emissions from motor vehicles are regulated by the Air Resources Board (ARB). The combination of topography, low mixing height, abundant sunshine, and emissions from the second largest urban area in the United States gives the Basin the worst air pollution problem in the nation. The Basin experiences a persistent temperature inversion (increasing temperature with increasing altitude); this inversion (coupled with low wind speeds) limits the vertical dispersion of air contaminants, holding them relatively near the ground. Pursuant to the Federal Clean Air Act (FCAA) of 1970, the EPA established national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for six major pollutants, termed criteria pollutants: ozone (03), coarse particulate matter with a diameter or 10 microns or less (PMio), fine particulate matter less than 2.5 (PM2.5) microns in diameter, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide(SO2), and lead. Criteria pollutants are defined as those pollutants for which the Federal and State governments have established AAQS, or criteria, for outdoor concentrations in order to protect public health. Data collected at permanent monitoring stations are used by the EPA to classify regions as "attainment" or "non-attainment" depending on whether the. • regions met the requirements stated in the primary NAAdS. Nonattainment areas have additional restrictions as required by the EPA. The EPA has designated the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) as the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) responsible for ensuring the Basin's compliance with the FCAA. The South Coast Air Basin is in Non-Attainment Status for Ozone, PM10 and PM2.5 Specific criteria for determining whether the potential air quality impacts of a project are significant are set forth in the SCAQMD's CEQA Air Quality Handbook. The criteria include daily emissions thresholds, compliance with State and national air quality standards, and consistency with the current AQMP. As prescribed by SCAQMD, an air impact study was prepared by RK Engineering Group, Inc December 20, 2011 that utilizes the Urban Emissions Model. URBEMIS 2007 Version 9.2.4 methodology and CEQA Air Quality Handbook, April 1993 to evaluate short-term construction emissions and short-term construction emissions for localized significant thresholds, long-term operational emissions, operation emissions for localized significant thresholds, and Green House Gas Emissions.

There is no significance threshold for CO2. 3 Indicates mitigated emissions levels. Source of thresholds: South Coast Air Quality Management District 2011a. Source of Emissions: Appendix A: CaIEEMod Output Equipment Exhausts and Related Construction Activities Construction activities produce combustion emissions from various sources such as site • grading, utility engines, on-site heavy-duty construction vehicles, asphalt paving, and motor vehicles transporting the construction crew. Exhaust emissions from construction activities envisioned on site would vary daily as construction activity levels change. The use of construction equipment on site would result in localized exhaust emissions. Fugitive Dust Fugitive dust emissions are generally emissions associated with land clearing and exposure of soils to the air and wind, and cut-and-fill grading operations. Dust generated during construction varies substantially on a project-by project basis, depending on the level of activity, the specific operation and weather conditions at the time of construction. Construction emissions can vary greatly depending on the level of activity, the specific operations taking place, the equipment being operated, local soils, weather conditions and other factors. The proposed project will be required to comply with SCAQMD Rules 402 and 403 to control fugitive dust. Architectural Coatings Architectural coatings contain VOCs that are similar to ROCs and are part of the 03 precursors. There will be residential building proposed for the project. Based on the proposed project, it is estimated that the proposed buildings will result in approximately 5.88 lbs of VOC per day during the coating phase. The emissions would occur after grading activities, near the end of the construction period. Therefore, this VOC emission is the principal air emission and is less than the SCAQMD VOC threshold of 75 lbs/day. Emissions associated with architectural coatings could be reduced by using pre- • coated/natural-colored building materials, using water-based or low-VOC coating, and using coating transfer or spray equipment with high transfer efficiency. For example, a Items H, I ,&J 62 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 9 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information SPotentially with Than PP g ormaSources: Significant Mitigation Significant No Imoact Incomrnate0 Imoact Imoact high-volume, low-pressure (HVLP) spray method is a coating application system operated at air pressure between 0.1 and 10 pounds per square inch gauge (psig), with 65 percent transfer efficiency. Manual applications such as paintbrush, and roller trowel, spatula, dauber, rag, or sponge have 100 percent transfer efficiency. Odors Heavy-duty equipment in the project area during construction would emit odors. However, the construction activity would cease to occur after individual construction is completed. No other sources of objectionable odors have been identified for the proposed project, and no mitigation measures are required. In compliance with SCAQMD Rule 402 the proposed uses are not anticipated to emit any objectionable odors. Therefore, objectionable odors posing a health risk to potential on-site and existing off-site uses would not occur as a result of the proposed project. Naturally Occurring Asbestos The proposed project is located in San Bernardino County, and it is not among the counties that are found to have serpentine and ultramafic rock in their soils. In addition, there has been no serpentine or ultramafic rock found in the project area. Therefore, the • potential risk for naturally occurring asbestos (NOA) during project construction is small and less than significant. 2010 General Plan FPEIR Air Quality Analysis and Mitigation Measures (short term) Short Term (Construction) Emissions - Continued development will contribute to the pollutant levels in the Rancho Cucamonga area, which already exceed Federal and State standards. During the construction phases of development, on-site stationary sources, heavy-duty construction vehicles, construction worker vehicles, and energy use will generate emissions. In addition, fugitive dust would also be generated during grading and construction activities. While most of the dust would settle on or near the project site, smaller particles would remain in the atmosphere, increasing particle levels within the surrounding area. Construction is an on-going industry in the Rancho Cucamonga area. Construction workers and equipment work and operate at one development site until their tasks are complete. Nevertheless, fugitive dust and equipment emissions are required to be assessed by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD)on a project- specific basis and in conformance with the General Plan FPEIR. Therefore, the following mitigation measures as identified in the FPEIR shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels: 1) During project construction, construction equipment shall be properly maintained at an offsite location; maintenance shall include proper tuning and timing of engines, so as to reduce operational emissions. The contractor shall ensure that all construction equipment is being properly serviced and maintained as per manufacturers' specifications. Maintenance records shall be available at the construction site for City verification. • 2) Prior to the issuance of any grading permits, the developer shall submit construction plans to City denoting the proposed schedule and projected equipment use. Construction contractors shall provide evidence that low emission mobile construction equipment.will be utilized, or that their use was Items H, I ,&J 63 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 10 Less Than • Significant Less Issues and Su ortln Information Sources: Patentially witn Tnan PP 9 Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incorsorated Impact Impact investigated and found to be infeasible for the project. Contractors shall also conform to any construction measures imposed by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) as well as City Planning Staff. 3) All paints and coatings shall meet or exceed performance standards noted in SCAQMD Rule 1113. Paints and coatings shall be applied either by hand or high-volume, low-pressure spray. 4) All asphalt shall meet or exceed performance standards noted in SCAQMD Rule 1108. 5) All construction equipment shall comply with SCAQMD Rules 402 and 403. Additionally, contractors shall include the following provisions: • Reestablish ground cover on the construction site through seeding and watering. • Pave or apply gravel to any on-site haul roads. • Phase grading to prevent the susceptibility of large areas to erosion over extended periods of time. • Schedule activities to minimize the amounts of exposed excavated soil • during and after the end of work periods. • Dispose of surplus excavated material in accordance with local ordinances and use sound engineering practices. • Sweep streets according to a schedule established by the City if silt is carried over to adjacent public thoroughfares or occurs as a result of hauling. Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction. • Suspend grading operations during high winds (i.e., wind speeds exceeding 25 mph) in accordance with Rule 403 requirements. • Maintain a minimum 24-inch freeboard ratio on soils haul trucks or cover payloads using tarps or other suitable means. 6) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and Regional Water Quality Control Board [RWQCB]) daily to reduce PMIo emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403. 7) Chemical soil-stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PMio emissions. 8) The construction contractor shall utilize electric or clean alternative fuel powered equipment where feasible. 9) The construction contractor shall ensure that construction-grading plans • include a statement that work crews will shut off equipment when not in use.

Based upon on the Urban Emissions Model (URBEMIS7G) estimates in Table 4.3-3 of the General Plan (FPEIR), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Ozone (03), and Particulate Matter (PM2,5 and PMJ0) would exceed SCAQMD thresholds for significance; therefore, they would all be cumulatively considerable if they cannot be mitigated on a project basis to a level less-than-significant. Long Term (Operational) Impacts Long Term Project Operational Emissions Long-term air pollutant emission impacts are those associated with stationary sources and mobile sources involving any project-related changes. The proposed project would result in a net increase in the number of residents in the project area; therefore, the proposed project would result in net increases in both stationary and mobile source emissions. The stationary source emissions would come from additional natural gas consumption for on- site buildings and electricity for the lighting in the buildings and at the parking area. Based on trip generation factors included in the Air Quality/Greenhouse Gas Analysis prepared by RK Engineering Group, Inc on December 20, 2011, long-term operation emissions associated with the proposed project, calculated with the URBEMIS 2007 shows that the increase of all criteria pollutants as a result of the proposed project would be less than the • corresponding SCAQMD daily emission thresholds. Therefore, project-related long-term air quality impacts would not be significant. Mitigation measures would not be required. 2010 General Plan FPEIR Air Quality Analysis and Mitigation Measures (long term) Long Term (Operational) Emissions- the General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report(FPEIR) analyzed the impacts of Air Quality based on the future build out of the City. In the long-term, development consistent with the General Plan would result in significant operational vehicle emissions based upon on the URBEMIS7G model estimates in Table 4.3-3 of the General Plan FPEIR; therefore, would all be cumulatively significant if they cannot be mitigated on a project basis to a level less-than-significant. The following mitigation measures as identified in the FPEIR shall be implemented: 1) Landscape with native and/or drought-resistant species to reduce water consumption and to provide passive solar benefits. 2) Provide lighter color roofing and road materials and tree planting programs to comply with the AQMP Miscellaneous Sources MSC-01 measure. 3) All residential and commercial structures shall be required to incorporate high-efficiency/low-polluting heating, air conditioning, appliances, and water heaters. 4) All residential and commercial structures shall be required to incorporate thermal pane windows and weather-stripping. • After implementation of the preceding mitigation measures, the General Plan FPEIR identified the citywide increase in operational emissions as a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council as noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.3).

The General Plan FPEIR identified the citywide increase in emissions as a significant and adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council. The project proposed is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. d) Sensitive receptors are defined as populations that are more susceptible to the effects of pollution than the population at large. The SCAQMD identifies the following as sensitive receptors: long-term health care facilities, rehabilitation centers, convalescent centers, retirement homes, residences, schools, playgrounds, child care centers, and athletic facilities. According to the SCAQMD, projects have the potential to create significant impacts if they are located within 1/4 mile of sensitive receptors and would emit toxic air contaminants identified in SCAQMD Rule 1401. The project site is located within 1/4 mile of a sensitive receptor. Potential impacts to air quality are consistent with the Public Health and Safety Super-Element within the Rancho Cucamonga General Plan. During construction, there is the possibility of fugitive dust to be generated from grading the site. The mitigation measures listed under b) above and the following mitigation measure will reduce impact to less-than-significant levels. 5) All new development in the City of Rancho Cucamonga shall comply with South Coast Air Quality Management District's Rule 445, Wood Burning • Devices. Rule 445 was adopted in March 2008 to reduce emissions of PM2.5 and precludes the installation of indoor or outdoor wood burning devices (i.e. fireplaces/hearths) in new development on or after March 9, 2009. e) Construction Odors (Short-term) may include odors associated with equipment use including diesel exhaust or roofing, painting and paving. These odors are temporary and would dissipate rapidly. Operation Odors (Long-term) are typically associated with the type of use. Odors from residential uses would be like cooking and gardening. Similarly common odors associated with mixed-use and commercial land uses would be expected (i.e. restaurants). Local odors from the majority of land uses would be similar to other urban areas and would not be considered significant. Industrial uses could create objectionable odors and therefore are located away from residential uses and sensitive receptors. Typically, the uses proposed do not create objectionable odors. No adverse impacts are anticipated. 4. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES.

Comments: • a) According to the General Plan Figure RC-4, and Section 4.4 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is within an area of sensitive biological resources: the Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub (RAFSS), Coastal California Gnatcatcher (CAGN), and the San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat (SBKR). The project site is located in an area developed with single-family residential uses. The site has been previously disrupted during construction of infrastructure for single-family residential units north of the site and along the east property line for the construction of public right of way. The site was also partially graded during the construction of two single-family residences in the middle of the site. The grazing land adjacent to the site has been isolated from the wild life interface by the construction of a flood control basin to the west and homes to the north, south and east of the project site. According to the Biological Constraints Analysis prepared by PCR Services Corporation on January 25, 2012 the 12.9-acre project site is comprised of a Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub community of approximately 6.4 acres. The RAFSS plant community is comprised of approximately 6 acres that is natural and undisturbed by human activity and approximately 0.4-acre that has been disturbed by human activity such as grading, vegetation removal, and dumping. Approximately 4.8 acres of the project is comprised of disturbed land that has been disrupted by human activity to the extent that the results are barren areas lacking vegetation and/or colonization by new, typically non-native, weedy species. The remaining 1.7 acres of the project site is developed land. The following mitigation measure shall be implemented to offset the removal of the 6.4 acres of Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub: 1) The developer shall purchase and preserve a minimum of 6.4 acres of suitable off-site mitigation land to be accepted by a qualified management • entity/agency or the payment of in-lieu fees (mitigation credits in a qualified mitigation bank) at a minimum of the equivalent to 6.4 acres to provide substitute resources at a ratio of 1:1 for the Riversidean Sage Scrub prior to obtaining issuance of a rough grading permit. The developer shall provide evidence of applicable mitigation fulfillment.

The San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat is adapted to breeding in flood deposited alluvial materials in sandy soils mixed with boulders and cobbles where Riversidean Alluvial Fan Scrub vegetation, a natural community not found in the study area is widely spaced. The study area is in an area where the granitic derived soils are coarse and rocky and is covered by Riversidean Sage Scrub where the vegetation is dense and closely spaced, which is not suitable for the SBKR." According to the same Sensitive Species Survey, "focused/absence surveys were conducted for the Coastal California Gnatcatcher...by Michael Misenhelter...between the dates of May 12 to June 23, 2012. No Coastal California Gnatcatchers were detected." Therefore no adverse impacts to special status species are anticipated There is suitable habitat for Plummer's mariposa lily and it was observed that 90 individual lily plants were observed scattered across the site during the sensitive plant survey conducted on May 29, 2012 by PCR biologist Bob Huttar and on August 21, 2012 by PCR biologists Ezekiel Cooley and Bob Huttar. Although Plummer's mariposa lily is not federally or state-listed as threatened or endangered, the following mitigation measure shall be implemented: 2) The project applicant shall prepare a Plummer's mariposa lily mitigation plan • prior to the issuance of a grading permit by the City of Rancho Cucamonga Building and Safety Services Department. The plan shall consist of transplantation or other methods of removal including "set aside" and transplantation at a receiver site(s), bulb collection or bulb augmentation within a greenhouse for future transplantation under the direction of a qualified restoration ecologist. The receiver site(s) shall be ecologically suitable and shall include the recordation of a conservation easement or deed restriction. According to the same Sensitive Species Survey on January 5, 2012 a Phase I Habitat Assessment for burrowing owls was conducted by PCR biologists Maile Tanaka and Bob Huttar. Potentially suitable habitat was found in the center of the study area on the eastern border within the disturbed areas. A Phase II Burrow Survey within the potentially suitable habitat areas was conducted on May 29, 2012 by PCR biologist Bob Huttar. No burrows or signs of burrows were detected. The same Sensitive Species Survey on January 5, 2012 states, "furthermore, in email communication dated January 24, 2012, Mike Misenhalter stated that during the course of his Coastal California Gnatcatcher surveys he found the area lacked the required openness to support burrowing owls because there were too many small shrubs and weeds growing on the property." No riparian habitat exists on-site. Therefore no adverse impact is anticipated b) According to the General Plan Figure RC-4, and Section 4.4 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is located within in the Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub (RAFFS) habitat. According to the Sensitive Species Survey prepared by PCR services Corporation on January 25, 2012 a Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub plant community • covers approximately 6.4 acres. The area has been fragmented from the wildlife corridor by the construction of the flood control basin to the west and the single-family residential development to the north, south, and east; however the Etiwanda Creek and the San Items H, I ,&J 68 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 15 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially wnh Than Significant Mitigation Significant7mNImpact nconeoraled m dd Sevaine Preserve continue to provide a corridor for migrating wildlife. The following mitigation measure shall be implemented: 3) The developer shall purchase and preserve a minimum of 6.4 acres of suitable off-site mitigation land to be accepted by a qualified management entitylagency or the payment of in-lieu fees (mitigation credits in a qualified mitigation bank) at a minimum of the equivalent to 6.4 acres to provide substitute resources at a ratio of 1:1 for the Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub prior to obtaining issuance of a rough grading permit. The developer shall provide evidence of applicable mitigation fulfillment.. C) No wetland habitat is present on-site. As a result, project implementation would have no impact on these resources. d) The City is primarily located in an urban area that does not contain large, contiguous natural open space areas. Wildlife potentially may move through the north/south trending tributaries in the northern portion of the City and within the Sphere of Influence. In the vicinity of the project site the Etiwanda Fan, wildlife movement corridors have been identified as the Etiwanda Creek Wash area and the San Sevaine Wash area down to the Santa Ana River. The project site is nearly surrounded by residential housing on the north, south and east. A levee that is part of the Etiwanda Spreading Ground borders the • western edge of the site. This development along with the freeways in the vicinity of the project site has cut off any potential corridors. Therefore the development of the project site would not substantially affect wildlife movement in the area and no adverse impacts are anticipated. e) There are no heritage trees on the project site; therefore, the proposed project is not in conflict with any local ordinance. f) Neither the City nor the SOI are within an adopted HCP, NCCP, or other approved State Habitat Conservation Plan area. The project site is not located within a local conservation area according to the General Plan, Open Space and Conservation Plan, Figure RC-1. No conflicts with habitat conservation plans will occur. 5. CULTURAL RESOURCES. Would the project: a) Cause a substantial adverse change in the ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) significance of a historical resource as defined in § 15064.5? b) Cause a substantial adverse change in the ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) significance of an archeological resource pursuant to § 15064.5? C) Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) resource or site or unique geologic feature? d) Disturb any human remains, including those interred ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) outside of formal cemeteries? • Comments: a) The project site has not been identified as a "Historic Resource" per the standards of Rancho Cucamonga Development Code Section 17.18. There will be no impact.

Construction activity, particularly grading, soil excavation and compaction, could adversely affect or eliminate existing and potential archaeological resources. The General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) analyzed the impacts of Cultural Resources based on the future build out of the City. The following mitigation measures as identified in the FPEIR shall be implemented: 1) If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or during _ grading, the developer will retain a qualified archaeologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. With the assistance of the archaeologist, the City of Rancho Cucamonga will: • Enact interim measures to protect undesignated sites from demolition or significant modification without an opportunity for the City to establish its archaeological value. • Consider establishing provisions to require incorporation of archaeological sites within new developments, using their special qualities as a theme or focal point. • • Pursue educating the public about the archaeological heritage of the area. • Prepare a mitigation plan consistent with Section 21083.2 Archaeological resources of CEQA to eliminate adverse project effects on significant, important, and unique prehistoric resources, including but not limited to, avoiding archaeological sites, capping or covering sites with soil, planning the site as a park or green space or paying a in-kind mitigation fee. • Prepare a technical resources management report, documenting the inventory, evaluation, and proposed mitigation of resources within the project area. Submit one copy of the completed report with original illustrations, to the San Bernardino County Archaeological Information Center for permanent archiving. C) The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.6) indicates that the Rancho Cucamonga area is on an alluvial fan. According to the research performed at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County and the San Bernardino County database, no paleontological sites or resources have been recorded within the City of Rancho Cucamonga or the Sphere-of- Influence, including the project site; however, the area has a high sensitivity rating for paleontological resources. The older alluvium, which would have been deposited during the wetter climate that prevailed 10,000-100,000 years ago during the Late Pleistocene epoch of the Quaternary period, when the last "Ice Age" and the appearance of modern man occurred, may contain significant vertebrate fossils. The project site is underlain by Quaternary alluvium per the Public Safety Element of the General Plan; therefore, the following mitigation measures shall be implemented: 2) If any paleontological resource (i.e. plant or animal fossils) are encountered • before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified paleontologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or Items H, I ,&J 70 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 17 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Pptemiantlly With Than PP 9 Sinapicant Mitigation Significant No oa Impact In[orporatetl Impact Impact preserve them for study. The paleontologist shall submit a report of findings that will also provide specific recommendations regarding further mitigation measures (i.e., paleontological monitoring) that may be appropriate. Where mitigation monitoring is appropriate, the program must include, but not be limited to, the following measures: • Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow the rapid removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to the site full-time during the interval of earth-disturbing activities. • Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded, divert earth-disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has completed salvage. If construction personnel make the discovery, the grading contractor should immediately divert construction and notify the monitor of the find. Prepare, identify, and curate all recovered fossils for documentation in the summary report and transfer to an appropriate depository (i.e., San Bernardino County Museum). • Submit summary report to City of Rancho Cucamonga. Transfer collected specimens with a copy of the report to San Bernardino County Museum. • d) The proposed project is in an area that has already been partially disturbed by development. The project site has already been disrupted by construction of infrastructure and surrounding developments and the construction of two single-family residences on site. No known religious or sacred sites exist within the project area. No evidence is in place to suggest the project site has been used for human burials. The California Health and Safety Code (Section 7050.5) states that if human remains are discovered on-site, no further disturbance shall occur until the County Coroner has made a determination of origin and disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. As adherence to State regulations is required for all development, no mitigation is required in the unlikely event human remains are discovered on-site. No adverse impacts are anticipated. 6. GEOLOGY AND SOILS. Would the project: a) Expose people or structures to potential substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury, or death involving: i) Rupture of a known earthquake fault, as ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) delineated on the most recent Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map issued by the State Geologist for the area or based on other substantial evidence of a known fault?

Comments: a) No known faults pass through the site and it is not in an Earthquake Fault Zone,,nor is it in the Rancho Cucamonga City Special Study Zone along the Red Hill Fault, according to the General Plan Figure PS-2, and Section 4.7 of the General Plan FPEIR. The Red Hill Fault, passes within 1 mile west of the site, and the Cucamonga Fault Zone lays approximately 2/3 of a mile north. These faults are both capable of producing My, 6.0-7.0 earthquakes. Also, • the San Jacinto fault, capable of producing up to M.7.5 earthquakes is 5 miles northeasterly of the site and the San Andreas, capable of up to Mµ, 8.2 earthquakes, is 9 miles northeasterly of the site. Each of these faults can produce strong ground shaking. Adhering to the Uniform Building Code and Standard Conditions will ensure that geologic impacts are less-than-significant. b) The City of Rancho Cucamonga is within a designated Soil Erosion Control Area Exhibit 4.7-4 of the General Plan FPEIR. The proposed project will require the excavation, stockpiling, and/or movement of on-site soils. The Rancho Cucamonga area is subject to strong Santa Ana wind conditions during September to April, which generates blowing sand and dust, and creates erosion problems. Construction activities may temporarily exacerbate the impacts of windblown sand, resulting in temporary problems of dust control; however, development of this project under the General Plan would help to reduce windblown sand impacts in the area as pavement, roads, buildings, and landscaping are established. Therefore, the following fugitive dust mitigation measures shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels: 1) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) daily to reduce PM1g emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403 or re-planted with drought resistant landscaping as soon as possible. 2) Frontage public streets shall be swept according to a schedule established by the City to reduce PM10 emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil off- site. Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction. 3) Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph to • minimize PM1g emissions from the site during such episodes.

C) The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.7) indicates that there is a potential for the hillside areas at the northern end of the City and in the SOI for slope failure, landslides, and/or erosion. Areas subject to slope instability contain slopes of 30 percent or greater. Landslides may be induced by seismic activity, rain, or construction. The City Hillside Development Regulations prohibits the development within slopes of 30 percent or greater and limit the number of units that could be constructed within the Hillside Residential and Very Low Density Residential designations in the Hillside areas. The site is not within an Earthquake hazard zone or other unstable geologic unit or soil type according to General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.7-2. Soil types on-site consist of Soboba Stony Loamy Sand Soil association according to General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.7-3. No adverse impacts are anticipated. d) The majority of Rancho Cucamonga, including the project site, is located on alluvial soil deposits. These types of soils are not considered to be expansive. Soil types on-site consist of Soboba Stony Loamy Sand Soil association according to General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.7-3. These soils are typically excessively drained and highly permeable. No adverse impacts are anticipated. • e) The project will connect to, and be served by, the existing local sewer system for wastewater disposal. No septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal is proposed. 7. GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS. Would the project: a) Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or ( ) (✓) ( ) () indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment? b) Conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) Comments: a) Regulations and Significance - The Federal government began studying the phenomenon of global warming as early as 1979 with the National Climate Protection Act(92 Stat. 601). In June of 2005, Governor Schwarzenegger established California's Green House Gas ("GHG") emissions reduction target in Executive Order (EO) S-3-05. The EO created goals to reduce GHG emissions for the State of California to 2000 levels by 2010; GHG emissions reduced to 1990 levels by 2020; and GHG emissions reduced to 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. Additionally, on December 7, 2009 the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) issued findings regarding GHGs under rule 202(a) of the Clean Air Act: (1) that GHGs endanger human health; and (2) that this will be the first steps to regulating GHGs through the Federal Clean Air Act. The USEPA defines six key GHGs (carbon dioxide [CO2], methane [CH4], nitrous oxide [N2O], hydro fluorocarbons • [HFCs], per fluorocarbons [PFCs], and sulfur hexafluoride [SF6]. The combined emissions of these well-mixed greenhouse gases from new motor vehicles and engines contribute to GHG pollution.

California is a substantial contributor of GHGs and is expected to see an increase of three to four degrees Fahrenheit('F)over the next century. Assembly Bill (AB) 32 requires that the California Air Resources Board (ARB), the lead agency for implementing AB 32, determine what the statewide GHG emission level was in 1990 and approved a statewide GHG emissions limit (427 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent) to be achieved by 2020 and prepare a Scoping Plan to outline the main strategies for meeting the 2020 deadline. Significant.progress can be made toward the 2020 goal through existing technologies and improving the efficiency of energy use. Other solutions would include improving the State's infrastructure, and transitioning to cleaner and more efficient sources of energy. The ARB estimates that 38 percent of the State's GHG emissions in 2004 was from transportation sources followed by electricity generation (both in-State and out-of-State) at 28 percent and industrial at 20 percent. Residential and commercial activities account for 9 percent, agricultural uses at 6 percent, high global warming potential gases at 3 percent, and recycling and waste at 1 percent. It is not anticipated that any single development project would have a substantial effect on global climate change but that GHG emissions from the project would combine with • emissions across California, the United States, and the world to cumulatively contribute to global climate change. Therefore, consistent with the ARB's Climate Change Scoping Plan, the proposed project was evaluated for consistency with the Early Action Measures (Scoping Plan is 'a recommendation until adopted through normal rulemaking). The proposed project is assessed by determining its consistency with the 37 Recommended Actions identified by ARB. In compliance with Senate Bill (SB) 97 and CEQA, the project has been analyzed based on a qualitative analysis (CEQA 15064.4). Additionally, the ARB was directed through SB 375 to develop regional GHG emission reduction targets to be achieved within the automobile and light truck sectors for 2020 and 2035. SCAQMD and ARB maintain ambient air quality monitoring stations in the Basin. The stations closest to the project site are the Upland station and the Fontana-Arrow Highway station. The Upland station monitors all criteria pollutants except PM1o, PM2,5, and SO2 which are monitored at the Fontana-Arrow Highway station. The ambient air quality in the project area for CO, NO2, and SO2 are consistently below the relevant State and Federal standards (based on ARB and EPA from 2007, 2008, and 2009 readings). Ozone, PMto, and PM2.5 levels all exceed State and Federal standards regularly. Project Related Sources of GHG's- Based on the Guidelines for the Implementation of California Environmental Quality Act, Appendix G, a project would normally be considered to have a significant effect on air quality if the project would violate any ambient air quality standards, contribute substantially to an existing air quality violation, expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations, or conflict with adopted environmental plans and goals of the community. However, the CEQA statutes, Office of Planning and Research (OPR) guidelines, nor the draft proposed changes to the CEQA Guidelines prescribe thresholds of significance or a particular methodology for performing an impact • analysis. Significance criteria are left to the judgment and discretion of the Lead Agency.

Based on the Air Quality Analysis prepared by RK Engineering Group, Inc on December 20, 2011 the project would result in the following emissions of carbon dioxide [CO2], methane [CH4], nitrous oxide [N20], hydro fluorocarbons [HFCs], per fluorocarbons [PFCs], and sulfur hexafluoride [SF61) and would not result in the other GHG's. As seen in the table the proposed project would result in a total of 266.9MTCO2eq/yr from Energy Use and 363 MTCO2eq/yr for Natural Gas and 2,147.8MTCO2eq/yr for mobile sources.

The GHG emitted by construction equipment is primarily carbon dioxide (CO2). The highest levels of construction related GHG's occur during site preparation including demolition, grading and excavation. Construction related GHG's are also emitted from off-site haul trucks and construction workers traveling to the job site. Exhaust emissions from construction activities would vary each day with the changes in construction activity on site. The combustion of fossil-based fuels creates GHG's such as CO2, Cho, and N20. CH4 is emitted during the fueling of heavy equipment. Therefore, the following mitigation measures shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than- significant levels: • 1) The project must comply with all rules that assist in reducing short-term air pollutant emission in compliance with SCAWMD Rule 403 regarding fugitive dust including treating the site with water or other soil-stabilizing agent twice daily or replanting disturbed areas as quickly as possible.

Long Term (Operational) GHG's Emissions - The primary source of GHG emissions generated by the proposed project would be from motor vehicles, combustion of natural gas for space and water heating, as well as off-site GHG emissions from generation of electricity consumed by the proposed land use development over a long term. CEQA requires the Lead Agency to review the project for "adequacy, completeness, and a good faith effort at full disclosure," to determine potential impacts of GHG's. Therefore the project has been analyzed based on methodologies and information available to the City • at the time this document was prepared. Estimates are based on past performance and represent a scenario that is a worst case with the understanding that technology changes may reduce GHG emissions in the future. To date, there is no established quantified GHG emission threshold. The project involves the subdivision of approximately 13 acres of land into 19 lots for the future construction of 17 single-family residences and the completion of two partially built homes and therefore would result in an increase in the net increases of both stationary and mobile source emissions. The majority of energy consumption typically occurs during project operation (more than 80 percent and less than 20 percent during construction activities). The proposed project will incorporate several design features that are consistent with the California Office of the Attorney General's recommended measures to reduce GHG emission including: water efficient landscaping, fiber optic communications infrastructure, sidewalks, and fire defensible space. The project is consistent with the California Environmental Protection Agency Climate Action Team proposed early action measures to mitigate climate change included in the CARB Scoping Plan mandated under AB 32. . The developer of the proposed project will be required to provide fiber optic communications infrastructure, local trails that connect to Community Trails, sidewalks, fire defensible space, and water efficient landscaping. Additionally, the City is participating in the development of a Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS) with SANBAG for the San Bernardino County area pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 375. The project's long term operation emissions will contribute to area pollutants but will not exceed any of the SCAQMD's thresholds. The proposed project would have less than a • significant long term impact with the following mitigation measures: Items H, I ,&J 76 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 23 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Su ortin Information Sources.

Provide interior and exterior storage areas for recyclables and green waste in public areas. Educate employees about reducing waste and about recycling. The proposed project will result in 2,795 MTCO2eq/yr (total project emissions) of • operational related emission without reduction from project design features. Based on the reduction measures proposed for the project and the Mitigation Measures the project would reduce its GHG emission to 2,777 MTCO2eq/yr which is below the "business as usual" scenario.

No other applicable plans, policies, or regulations adopted for the purpose of reducing GHG emission apply to the project. The 2010 General Plan Update included adopted policies and Standard Conditions that respond to the Attorney General and the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA). The General Plan policies and Standard Conditions guide infill and sustainable development reliant on pedestrian connections, re-use and rehabilitation of existing structures, link transportation opportunities, promote development that is sensitive to natural resources and incentivizes denser mixed use projects that maximizes diverse opportunities. The proposed project includes General Plan Policy LU-2.3: Provide direct pedestrian access connections between development projects where possible is accomplished by local equestrian and walking trails that connect to the Rancho Cucamonga trail system such as community trails in the area. General Plan Policy LU-10.1: Continue to require implementation of the City's Water Efficient Ordinance is accomplished by requiring all new developments to submit landscape plans that illustrate that they meet all the requirements of the ordinance. General Plan Policy CM-2.1: Facilitate bicycling and walking citywide is again accomplished by connecting this project to the City's Community Trail that connects with both local and regional trails throughout the city by implementing the principles of the City's Trail Implementation Plan. General Plan Policy RC-3.1: Require the use of cost-effective methods to conserve water in new developments and promote appropriate water conservation and efficiency measures for existing businesses and residences by promoting water drip irrigation and requiring all construction meet the • building code Title 24. And General Plan Policy PF-7.1: Continue to adopt programs and practices that minimize the amount of materials entering the waste stream. Encourage recycling and composting is all sectors of the community, including recycling of construction and demolition materials, in order to divert items from entering landfills. This is done by requiring builders to submit a deposit to the city which requires the builder to recycle at least 50 percent of the construction materials. The developer of the proposed project will be required to provide fiber optic communications infrastructure, local trail that connect to Community trails, sidewalks, fire defensible space, and water efficient landscaping and, therefore, is consistent with the policies of the General Plan. The General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) analyzed the impacts of GHG's and determined that GHG emissions would be cumulatively considerable, which would be a significant unavoidable adverse cumulative impact. A Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council. The proposed project would not hinder the State's GHG reduction goals established by Assembly (AB) 32 and therefore would be less than a significant impact. 8. HAZARDS AND WASTE MATERIALS.

Comments: a) Development within the City may utilize or generate hazardous materials or wastes. This is usually associated with individual households, small business operations, and maintenance activities like paints, cleaning solvents, fertilizers, and motor oil or through construction activities that would use paints, solvents, acids, curing compounds, grease, and oils. These materials would be stored and used at individual sites. The City participates in a countywide interagency coalition, which is considered a full service Hazardous Materials Division that is more comprehensive than any other in the State. The City has an Emergency Operations Plan that meets State and Federal requirements and is in the process of updating the approved 2005 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan. Compliance with Federal, State, and local regulations concerning the storage and handling of hazardous materials and/or waste will reduce the potential for significant impacts to a level less-than-significant. No adverse impacts are expected. b) The proposed project does not include the use of hazardous materials or volatile fuels. The City participates in a countywide interagency coalition, which is considered a full service Hazardous Materials Division that is more comprehensive than any other in the State.

No adverse impacts are anticipated. C) There are no schools located within 1/4 mile of the project site. The nearest schools, Etiwanda Colonies at 13144 Banyan Street and Summit Intermediate School at 5959 East Items H, I ,&J 79 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 26 Less Than • Signifiwm Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Pelentially Wim Than PP g Signlficanl Mitigation Significant Ns Impact Incamwate0 Impact Impact Avenue, are about 1 mile southwest of the project site. Typically, the uses proposed do not create objectionable odors. No adverse impacts are anticipated. d) The proposed project is not listed as a hazardous waste or substance materials site. Recent site inspections did not reveal the presence of discarded drums or illegal dumping of hazardous materials. No impact is anticipated. e) The site is not located within an airport land use plan according to the General Plan Figure PS-7 and General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.8-1 and is not within 2 miles of a public airport. The project site is located approximately 6 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport and is offset north of the-flight path. No impact is anticipated. f) There are no private airstrips within the City. The nearest private airstrip, Cable Airport, is located approximately 2.5 miles to the west of the City's westerly limits. No impact is anticipated. g) The City has a developed roadway network that provides emergency access and evacuation routes to existing development. New development will be located on a site that has access to existing roadways. The City's Emergency Operation Plan, which is updated every three years, includes policies and procedures to be administered by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in the event of a disaster. Because the project includes at least two points of public street access and is required to comply with all applicable City codes, • including local fire ordinances, no adverse impacts are anticipated. h) Rancho Cucamonga faces the greatest ongoing threat from wind-driven fires in the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone found in the northern part of the City. The project is located with the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone according to General Plan Figure PS-1. The City recognizes the risk and has adopted policies and Standard Conditions that limit uses to Very Low density residential development and Hillside residential uses in these areas to limit property exposed to wildland fire hazards. The project shall prepare a Fire Protection Plan to outline appropriate measures to address fire hazards. Therefore, the following wildland fire mitigation measure shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels: 1) The project shall comply with Chapter 7A of the California Building Code (CBC), which includes building standards for the Wildland-Urban Interface Fire Area. The standards call for the use of ignition-resistant materials and design to inhibit the intrusion of flame or burning embers projected by a vegetation fire and help reduce losses resulting from repeated cycles of interface fire disasters. • Items H, I ,&J 80 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 27 • Less Tnan Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially calm Then PP g Sig olti,t Mitigation Significant No pa Impact Incomaratetl Impact Imaad 9.

The project is designed to connect to existing water and sewer systems. The State of California is authorized to administer various aspects of the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit under Section 402 of the Clean Water Act. The General Construction Permit treats any construction activity over 1 acre as an industrial activity, requiring a permit under the State's General NPDES permit. The State Water • Resource Control Board (SWRCB), through the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RW QCB), Santa Ana Region, administers these permits.

Prior to commencement of construction of a project, a discharger must submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) to obtain coverage under the General Permit. The General Permit requires all dischargers to comply with the following during construction activities, including site clearance and grading: • Develop and implement a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) that would specify Best Management Practices (BMPs) to prevent construction pollutants from contacting storm water and with the intent of keeping all products of erosion from moving off-site into receiving waters. • Eliminate or reduce non-storm water discharges to storm sewer systems and other waters of the nation. • Perform inspections of all BMPs. Waste discharges include discharges of storm water and construction project discharges. A construction project for new development or significant redevelopment requires an NPDES permit. Construction project proponents are required to prepare an SWPPP. To comply with the NPDES, the project's construction contractor will be required to prepare • an SWPPP during construction activities, and a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) for post-construction operational management of storm water runoff. The applicant has submitted a WQMP, prepared by MDS Consulting on June 18, 2012, which identifies BMPs to minimize the amount of pollutants, such as eroded soils, entering the drainage system after construction. Runoff from driveways, roads and other impermeable surfaces must be controlled through an on-site drainage system. BMPs include both structural and non-structural control methods. Structural controls used to manage storm water pollutant levels include detention basins, oil/grit separators, and porous pavement. Non-structural controls focus on controlling pollutants at the source, generally through implementing erosion and sediment control plans, and various Business Plans that must be developed by any businesses that store and use hazardous materials. Practices such as periodic parking lot sweeping can substantially reduce the amount of pollutants entering the storm drain system. The following mitigation measures are required to control additional storm water effluent: Construction Activities: 1) Prior to issuance of grading permits, the permit applicant shall submit to the Building Official for approval, a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) specifically identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that shall be used on-site to reduce pollutants during construction activities entering the storm drain system to the maximum extent practical. 2) An Erosion Control Plan shall be prepared, included in the Grading Plan, and implemented for the proposed project that identifies specific measures to control on-site and off-site erosion from the time ground disturbing activities are initiated through completion of grading. This Erosion Control Plan shall • include the following measures at a minimum: a) Specify the timing of grading and construction to minimize soil exposure to rainy periods experienced in Southern California, and b) An inspection and maintenance Items H, I ,&J 82 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 29 Less Tnan Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially with Than Significant MI'gauon Significam No tmodcl IntOr00ratetl Im act m act program shall be included to ensure that any erosion which does occur either on-site or off-site as a result of this project will be corrected through a remediation or restoration program within a specified time frame. 3) During construction, temporary berms such as sandbags or gravel dikes must be used to prevent discharge of debris or sediment from the site when there is rainfall or other runoff. 4) During construction, to remove pollutants, street cleaning will be performed prior to storm events and after the use of water trucks to control dust in order to prevent discharge of debris or sediment from the site. Post- Construction Operational: 5) The developer shall implement the BMPs identified in the Water Quality Management Plan prepared by MDS Consulting on June 18, 2012 to reduce pollutants after construction entering the storm drain system to the maximum extent practical. 6) Landscaping plans shall include provisions for controlling and minimizing the use of fertilizers/pesticides/herbicides. Landscaped areas shall be . monitored and maintained for at least two years to ensure adequate coverage and stable growth. Plans for these areas, including monitoring provisions for a minimum of two years, shall be submitted to the City for review and approval prior to the issuance of grading permits. b) According to CVWD, approximately 35 percent of the City's water is currently provided from water supplies coming from the underlying Chino and Cucamonga Groundwater Basins. CVWD complies with its prescriptive water rights as managed by the Chino Basin Watermaster and will not deplete the local groundwater resource. The proposed project will not deplete groundwater supplies, nor will it interfere with recharge because it is not within an area designated as a recharge basin or spreading ground according to General Plan Figure RC-3. Development of the site will require the grading and excavation, but would not affect the existing aquifer, estimated to be about 300 to 470 feet below the ground surface. As noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.9), continued development citywide will increase water needs but will not be a significant impact. CVWD has plans to meet this increased need to the year 2030. No impacts are anticipated. C) The project will cause changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and amount of surface water runoff because of the amount of new building and hardscape proposed on the site; however, the project will not alter the course of any stream or river. All runoff will be conveyed to existing storm drain facilities, which have been designed to handle the flows. The project design includes landscaping of all non-hardscape areas to prevent erosion. A Grading and Drainage Plan must be approved by the Building Official and City Engineer prior to issuance of grading permits. Therefore, the project will not result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site. The impact is not considered • significant. d) The project will cause changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and amount of surface water runoff because of the amount of new building and hardscape Items H, I ,&J 83 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 30 Less Tnan • Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially with Than PP 9 Significant MugafionSignificant No Impact InIm cur orated oact aaPact proposed on a site; however, the project will not alter the course of any stream or river.

A Grading and Drainage Plan must be approved by the Building Oficial and City Engineer prior to issuance of grading permits. Therefore, increase in runoff from the site will not result in flooding on- or off-site. No impacts are anticipated. f) Grading activities associated with the construction period could result in a temporary increase in the amount of suspended solids in surface flows during a concurrent storm event, thus resulting in surface water quality impacts. The site is for the subdivision of approximately 13 acres of land into 19 single-family lots for the future construction of single-family residences; therefore, is required to comply with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) to minimize water pollution. The following mitigation measures shall be implemented: • 1) Prior to issuance of building permits, the applicant shall submit to the City Building Official for approval of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP), including a project description and identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that will be used on-site to reduce pollutants into the storm drain system to the maximum extent practicable. The WQMP shall identify the structural and non-structural measures consistent with the Guidelines for New Development and Redevelopment adopted by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in June 2004. 2) Prior to issuance of grading or paving permits, the applicant shall obtain a Notice of Intent (NOI) to comply with obtaining coverage under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Construction Storm Water Permit from the State Water Resources Control Board. Evidence that this has been obtained (i.e., a copy of the Waste Discharger's Identification Number) shall be submitted to the City Building Official for coverage under the NPDES General Construction Permit. g) The project site is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area according to General Plan Figure PS-5.

The system is • substantially improved and provides an integrated approach for regional and local drainage flows. This existing system includes several debris dams and levees north of the City, spreading grounds, concrete-lined channels, and underground storm drains as Items H, I ,&J 84 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 31 • Less Then significant Less Issues and Su ortin Information Sources: FmerNany With Than PP g Significant Mitigation Significant No Imoad Incorporated Imoact Imoad shown in General Plan Figure PS-6.

The Rancho Cucamonga area sits at the base of the steep eastern San Gabriel Mountains whose deep canyons were cut by mountain streams. Numerous man-made controls have been constructed to reduce the mudflow impacts to the level of non-significance within the City. This existing system includes several debris dams and levees north of the City, and spreading grounds both within and north of the City. 10. LAND USE AND PLANNING.

Comments: a) The site is located on the west side of Wardman Bullock Road generally south of Blue Sky Court and is characterized by single-family development to the north and east, with two single-family residences to the south and vacant land to the west and near the northwest portion of the project. This project will be of similar design and size to surrounding residential development to the north. The project will become a part of the larger community. No adverse impacts are anticipated. b) The project site land use designation is Very Low Residential. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan and does not interfere with any policies for environmental protection, SCAG's Compass Blueprint, or SCAG's Regional Comprehensive Plan. General Plan Policy LU-2.3: Provide direct pedestrian access connections between development projects where possible is accomplished by local equestrian and walking trails that connect to the Rancho Cucamonga trail system such as community trails in the area. General Plan Policy LU-10.1: Continue to require implementation of the City's Water Efficient Ordinance is accomplished by requiring all new developments to submit landscape plans that illustrate that they meet all the requirements of the ordinance. General Plan Policy CM-2.1: Facilitate bicycling and walking citywide is again accomplished by connecting this project to the City's Community Trail that connects with both local and regional trails throughout the City by implementing the principles of the City's Trail Implementation Plan. General Plan Policy RC-3.1: Require the use of cost- effective methods to conserve water in new developments and promote appropriate water conservation and efficiency measures for existing businesses and residences by • promoting water drip irrigation and requiring all construction meet the building code Title 24. And General Plan Policy PF-7.1: Continue to adopt programs and practices that minimize the amount of materials entering the waste stream. Encourage recycling and composting in all sectors of the community, including recycling of construction and Items H, I ,&J 85 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 32 Less Than • Significant Less Issues and Su ortin Information Sources: Potentially wit' Than pp g Signifiwtn Mitigation Significant W impact Incomwatea Impact Impact demolition materials, in order to divert items from entering landfills. This is done by requiring builders to submit a deposit to the City which requires the builder to recycle at least 50 percent of the construction materials. As such, no impacts are anticipated. C) The project site is not located within any habitat conservation or natural community plan area. According to General Plan Figure RC-4 and Section 4.10 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is not within an area of sensitive biological resources; therefore, development will not adversely affect rare or endangered species of plants or animals because of the fact that the project is surrounded by urbanized land uses and is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Plan. 11. MINERAL RESOURCES. Would the project: a) Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) resource that would be of value to the region and the residents of the State? b) Result in the loss of availability of a locally important ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan? Comments: a) The site is not designated as a State Aggregate Resources Area according to the City • General Plan, Figure RC-2 and Table RC-1; therefore, there is no impact. b) The site is not designated by the General Plan, Figure RC72 and Table RC-1, as a valuable mineral resource recovery site; therefore, there is no impact. 12. NOISE. Would the project result in: a) Exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies? b) Exposure of persons to or generation of excessive ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) ground borne vibration or ground borne noise levels? c) A substantial permanent increase in ambient noise ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the project? d) A substantial temporary or periodic increase in ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the project? e) For a project located within an airport land use plan or, ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) where such a plan has not been adopted, within 2 miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? • Items H, I ,&J 86 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 33 • Lass Than SignificantLess Issues and Supporting Information Sources: sgnnhaloi Mil grlh afi on Signan No Imoacl Incorporated Imoact Imoad f) For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? Comments: a) The project site is not within an area of noise levels exceeding City standards according to General Plan Figure PS-9 at build-out. According to a Noise Analysis prepared by Mestre Greve Associates on January 16, 2012 noise attenuation falls about 12 dB with windows open so all buildings exposed to noise levels greater than 57 CNEL will meet the 45 CNEL interior noise standard only with windows closed. Adequate ventilation will be required for rooms nearest Wardman Bullock Road in Lots 11, 12, 17 and 18. A Mitigation Measure has been included to mitigate construction related noise during grading of the site. Exterior: 1) Prior to the issuance of any grading plans a construction-related noise mitigation plan shall be submitted to the City for review and approval. The Plan shall depict the location of the construction equipment and how the noise from this equipment would be mitigated during construction. Interior: • Specific mitigation measures for interior noise impacts are not possible at this time as the project does not include a house product. Mitigation measures cannot be established without knowing the design of the houses. Therefore: 1) When an application for the development of homes on the project site is submitted, the applicant (current or future) shall submit a noise assessment to determine the required mitigations measures to reduce the noise impacts to levels of less significance. b) The normal operating uses associated with this type of project normally do not induce ground borne vibrations. Construction related activities such as the use of earthmoving and construction equipment, arrival/departure of contractors' vehicles and material delivery vehicles, and the construction of the building itself may create vibration impacts. However, these impacts will be short term and less than significant when the activities are conducted in compliance with the mitigation measures listed below and the Development Code. As such, no impacts are anticipated. C) The primary source of ambient noise levels in Rancho Cucamonga is traffic. Because the project will not significantly increase traffic as analyzed in Section 16 Transportation/Traffic; it will likely not increase ambient noise levels within the vicinity of the project. d) The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.12) indicates that during a construction phase, on-site stationary sources, heavy-duty construction vehicles, and construction equipment, will generate noise exceeding City standards. The following measures are provided to • mitigate the short-term noise impacts: Items H, I ,&J 87 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 34 Less Than • Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information SPDt.namlly With Than PP g ormaSources: Significant Uhgaboh Stgnificanl No Impact Incorporate, Impact Impact 2) Construction or grading shall not take place between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any time on Sunday or a national holiday. 3) Construction or grading noise levels shall not exceed the standards specified in Development Code Section 17.66.050, as measured at the property line. Developer shall hire a consultant to perform weekly noise level monitoring as specified in Development Code Section 17.66.050. Monitoring at other times may be required by the Building Official. Said consultant shall report their findings to the Building Official within 24 hours; however, if noise levels exceed the above standards, then the consultant shall immediately notify the Building Official. If noise levels exceed the above standards, then construction activities shall be reduced in intensity to a level of compliance with above noise standards or halted. 4) The perimeter block wall shall be constructed as early as possible in first phase. The preceding mitigation measures will reduce the disturbance created by on-site construction equipment but do not address the potential impacts because of the transport of construction materials and debris. The following mitigation measures shall then be required: • 5) Haul truck deliveries shall not take place between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any time on Sunday or a national holiday. Additionally, if heavy trucks used for hauling would exceed 100 daily trips (counting both to and from the construction site), then the developer shall prepare a noise mitigation plan denoting any construction traffic haul routes and include appropriate noise mitigation measures. To the extent feasible, the plan shall denote haul routes that do not pass sensitive land uses or residential dwellings. e) The site is not located within an airport land use plan and is not within 2 miles of a public airport. The Project is located approximately 6 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport and is offset north of the flight path. No impact is anticipated. f) The nearest private airstrip, Cable Airport, is located approximately 2.5 miles to the west of the City's westerly limits. No impact is anticipated. 13. POPULATION AND HOUSING. Would the project: a) Induce substantial population growth in an area, either ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)? b) Displace substantial numbers of existing housing, ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? • C) Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) the construction of replacement housing elsewhere?

There are 2 partially constructed single-family homes on the project site but otherwise the site is predominately vacant. The proposed project is for the subdivision of the project site into 19 lots for the purpose of future construction of 17 single-family homes and completion of the construction of the existing 2 partially constructed single-family homes. Although the project will increase the population growth in the area there will be a less than significant impact as the project is consistent with the underlying Zoning and General Plan Designation. The density was analyzed as part of the build out in the General Plan FPEIR. Construction activities at the site will be short-term and will not attract new employees to the area. No impacts are anticipated. b) There are 2 partially constructed single-family homes on the project site but otherwise the site is predominately vacant. Because the property is mostly vacant and the 2 houses that are on the property are unoccupied; there will be no displacement of housing or people. Therefore no adverse impact is expected. C) There are 2 partially constructed single-family homes on the project site but otherwise the site is predominately vacant. Because the property is mostly vacant and the 2 houses that are on the property are unoccupied there will be no displacement of housing or • people. Therefore no adverse impact is expected. 14. PUBLIC SERVICES. Would the project result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services: a) Fire protection? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) b) Police protection? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) C) Schools? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) d) Parks? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) e) Other public facilities? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) Comments: a) The site, located on the west side of Wardman Bullock Road at Blue Sky Court, would be served by Fire Station #6 located at 5840 East Avenue approximately 0.6 miles from the project site. The project will not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing facilities or cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities. Standard conditions of approval from the Uniform Building and Fire Codes will be placed on the project to lessen the future demand and impacts to fire services. No impacts are anticipated. • b) The increase in residential units may lead to an increase in calls for service. Although there may be an increase in calls, additional police protection is not required as the addition of the project will not change the pattern of uses within the surrounding area and Items H, I ,&J 89 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 36 Less Than • Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially with Than PP g Significant bmigation Significant No Impact Incorporate, Impact chissct will not have a substantial increase in property to be patrolled as the project site is within an area that is regularly patrolled. C) The Etiwanda School District and the Chaffey Joint Union High School District serve the project area. Both school districts have been notified regarding the proposed development. A standard condition of approval will require the developer to pay the school impact fees. With this standard mitigation, impacts to the School Districts are not considered significant. d) The site is in a developed area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The nearest park is Legacy Park located at 5858 Santa Ynez Place about 0.5-mile from the project site. The project will not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing facilities or cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities. A standard condition of approval will require the developer to pay Park Development Fees. No impacts are anticipated. e) The proposed project will utilize existing public facilities. The site is in a developed area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The project will not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing facilities or cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities. Cumulative development within Rancho Cucamonga will increase demand for library services. According to the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.14), there will be a projected increase in • library space demand but with the implementation of standard conditions the increase in Library Services would be mitigated to less than significant impact. Additionally, the Paul A. Biane Library has an additional 14,000 square foot shell of vacant library space that is planned for future Library use. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. Therefore no adverse impact is expected. 15. RECREATION. Would the project: a) Increase the use of existing neighborhood and ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated? b) Does the project include recreational facilities or ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities, which might have an adverse physical effect on the environment? Comments: a) The site is in a developed area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The nearest park is Legacy Park located at 5858 Santa Ynez Place about 0.5-mile from the project site. This project is not proposing any new housing or large employment generator that would cause an increase in the use of parks or other recreational facilities. A standard condition of approval will require the developer to pay Park Development Fees. No impacts are anticipated. b) See a) response above. • Items H, I ,&J 90 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 37 • Less Tnan Signigcam less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially wnh Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incorporated Impact Impact 16. TRANSPORTATION/TRAFFIC. Would the project: a) Conflict with an applicable plan, ordinance or policy ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) establishing measures of effectiveness for the performance of the circulation system, taking into account all modes of transportation including mass transit and non-motorized travel and relevant components of the circulation system, including but not limited to intersections, streets, highways and freeways, pedestrian and bicycle paths, and mass transit? b) Conflict with an applicable congestion management ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) program, including, but not limited to a level of service standards and travel demand measures, or other standards established by the county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways? C) Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) either an increase in traffic levels or a change in location that result in substantial safety risks? • d) Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? e) Result in inadequate emergency access? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) f) Conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) regarding public transit, bicycle, or pedestrian facilities, or otherwise decrease the performance or safety of such facilities. Comments: a) Implementation of the proposed project will generate 181.83 vehicle trips daily. The proposed project includes the subdivision of approximately 13 acres into 19 lots for future development of detached single-family homes (2 of these single-family homes have been partially constructed). The Rancho Cucamonga Traffic Model estimates that each single- family detached dwelling unit will generate 9.57 trips daily. As noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.16), continued development will contribute to the traffic load in the Rancho Cucamonga area. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. The project is in an area that is developed with existing street improvements or will be included in project design. The project will not create a substantial increase in the number of vehicle trips, traffic volume, or congestion at intersections. The project site will be required to provide street improvements (curb, gutter and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the site per City roadway standards. In addition, the City has established a Transportation Development fee that must be paid by the applicant prior to issuance of building permits. Fees are used to fund roadway improvements necessary to support adequate traffic circulation. No • impacts are anticipated. b) The Rancho Cucamonga Traffic Model estimates that each detached single-family dwelling unit will generate 1.75 two-way peak hour trips daily. In November 2004, San Items H, I ,&J 91 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 38 Less Than • Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Pntwially with Than Significanl Mitigation Significant No Impact In )MOrated Impact Impact Bernardino County voters passed the Measure I extension which requires local jurisdictions to impose appropriate fees on development for their fair share toward regional transportation improvement projects. On May 18, 2005, the City of Rancho Cucamonga adopted a Comprehensive Transportation Fee Schedule updating these development impact fees. As a result, the San Bernardino County Congestion Management Agency waived the Congestion Management Plan (CMP) Traffic Impact Analysis reporting requirement. This project will be required, as a condition of approval, to pay the adopted transportation development fee prior to issuance of building permit. The project is in an area that is mostly developed with all street improvements existing. The project will not negatively impact the level of service standards on adjacent arterials. The project will be required to provide street improvements (curb, gutter, and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the site. No impacts are anticipated. C) Located approximately 6 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport, the site is offset north of the flight path and will not change air traffic patterns. No impacts are anticipated. d) The project is in an area that is being developed. The project will be required to provide street improvements (curb, gutter, and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the site. The project design does not include any sharp curves or dangerous intersections or farming uses. The project will, therefore, not create a substantial increase in hazards because of a design feature. No impacts are anticipated. e) The project will be designed to provide access for all emergency vehicles during • construction and upon completion of the project and will therefore not create an inadequate emergency access. No impacts are anticipated. f) The project is residential. Although houses are not part of the proposal, when the houses are submitted for review, adequate parking, specifically an enclosed garage and a driveway, in compliance with standards of the Rancho Cucamonga Development Code will be required. No impacts are anticipated. 17. UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS. Would the project: a) Exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) applicable Regional Water Quality Control Board? b) Require or result in the construction of new water or ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) wastewater treatment facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects?

Comments: a) The proposed project is served by the CVWD sewer system, which has waste treated by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency at the RP-1 and RP-4 treatment plants. The RP-1 capacity is sufficient to exceed the additional development within the western and southern areas of the City. The RP-4 treatment plant has a potential ultimate capacity of 28 mgd which is considered more than adequate to capacity to treat all increases in wastewater generation for build out of the General Plan. The project is required to meet the requirements of the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board regarding wastewater. No impacts are anticipated. • b) The proposed project is served by the CVWD sewer system, which has waste treated by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency at the RP-4 treatment plant located within Rancho Cucamonga and RP-1 located within City of Ontario, neither of which is at capacity. The project is required to meet the requirements of the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board regarding wastewater. No impacts are anticipated. C) All runoff will be conveyed to existing storm drain facilities, which have been designed to handle the flows. A Grading and Drainage Plan must be approved by the Building Official and City Engineer prior to issuance of grading permits. The impact is not considered significant. d) The project is served by the CVWD water system. There is currently a sufficient water supply available to the City of Rancho Cucamonga to serve this project. No impacts are anticipated. e) The proposed project is served by the CVWD sewer system, which has waste treated by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency at the RP-4 treatment plant located within Rancho Cucamonga and RP-1 located within City of Ontario, neither of which is at capacity. No impacts are anticipated. f) Solid waste disposal will be provided by the current City contracted hauler who disposes the refuse at a permitted landfill with sufficient capacity to handle the City's solid waste disposal needs. No impacts are anticipated. g) This project complies with Federal, State, and local statutes and regulations regarding • solid waste. The City of Rancho Cucamonga continues to implement waste reduction procedures consistent with AB 939. Therefore, no impacts are anticipated.

MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal, or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? b) Does the project have impacts that are individually ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)? C) Does the project have environmental effects that will ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Comments: • a) According to the General Plan Figure RC-4, and Section 4.4 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is within an area of sensitive biological resources: the Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub (RAFSS), Coastal California Gnatcatcher (CAGN), and the San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat (SBKR). The project site is located in an area developed with single-family residential uses. The site has been previously disrupted during construction of infrastructure for single-family residential units north of the site and along the east property line for the construction of public right of way. The site was also partially graded during the construction of two single-family residences in the middle of the site. The grazing land adjacent to the site has been isolated from the wild life interface by the construction of a flood control basin to the west and homes to the north, south and east of the project site. According to the Biological Constraints Analysis prepared by PCR Services Corporation on January 25, 2012 the 12.9-acre project site is comprised of a Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub community of approximately 6.4 acres. The RAFSS plant community is comprised of approximately 6 acres that is natural and undisturbed by human activity and approximately 0.4-acre that has been disturbed by human activity such as grading, vegetation removal, and dumping. Approximately 4.8 acres of the project is comprised of disturbed land that has been disrupted by human activity to the extent that the results are barren areas lacking vegetation and/or colonization by new, typically non-native, weedy species. The remaining 1.7 acres of the project site is developed land. With the incorporation of the attached mitigation measures to offset the removal of the 6.4 acres of Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub, the proposed project will have a less-than- significant impact. According to the results of the Sensitive Species Survey prepared by PCR services • Corporation on August 28, 2012, "in email communication dated January 24, 2012, Dr, Items H, I ,&J 94 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18823 Page 41 • Less Tnan Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Poteofi lly wnn Than Sigmfoam Mitigation Significant No Imoad Incorooralad Imgact Imoad Michael O'Farrell, an experienced mammologist who has trapped the area extensively, stated he has failed to find San Bernardino Kangaroo Rats in the vicinity and considers the habitat in the study area unsuitable. The San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat is adapted to breeding in flood deposited alluvial materials in sandy soils mixed with boulders and cobbles where Riversidean Alluvial Fan Scrub vegetation, a natural community not found in the study area is widely spaced. The study area is in an area where the granitic derived soils are coarse and rocky and is covered by Riversidean Sage Scrub where the vegetation is dense and closely spaced, which is not suitable for the SBKR." According to the same Sensitive Species Survey, "focused/absence surveys were conducted for the Coastal California Gnatcatcher...by Michael Misenhelter...between the dates of May 12 to June 23, 2012. No Coastal California Gnatcatcher were detected." Therefore no adverse impacts to special status species are anticipated. There is suitable habitat for Plummer's mariposa lily and it was observed that 90 individual lily plants were observed scattered across the site during the sensitive plant survey conducted on May 29, 2012 by PCR biologist Bob Huttar and on August 21, 2012 by PCR biologists Ezekiel Cooley and Bob Huttar. Although Plummer's mariposa lily is not federally or state-listed as threatened or endangered, with the incorporation of the attached mitigation measure, the proposed project will have a less-than-significant impact. b) If the proposed project were approved, then the applicant would be required to develop • the site in accordance with the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan. The 2010 General Plan was adopted along with the certification of a Program FEIR, Findings of Fact, and a Statement of Overriding Considerations for significant adverse environmental effects of build-out in the City and Sphere-of-Influence. The City made findings that adoption of the General Plan would result in significant adverse effects to Aesthetics, Agriculture and Forest Resources, Air Quality, Climate Change and Mineral Resources. Mitigation measures were adopted for each of these resources; however, they would not reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels. As such, the City adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations balancing the benefits of development under the General Plan Update against the significant unavoidable adverse impacts (CEQA Guidelines Section 15092 and 15096(h)). These benefits include less overall traffic volumes by developing mixed-use projects that will be pedestrian friendly and conservation of valuable natural open space. With these findings and the Statement of Overriding Considerations, no further discussion or evaluation of cumulative impacts is required. C) Development of the site under the proposed land use change would not cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly. The Initial Study identifies construction-related emissions of criteria pollutants as having a potentially significant impact. Proposed mitigation measures would further reduce emission levels. Additionally, impacts resulting from air quality would be short-term and would cease once construction activities were completed. The Initial Study identified potentially significant impacts associated with the exposure of people to increased noise levels. Mitigation measures contained in this Initial Study will ensure impacts are at less-than-significant levels.

A. Recitals. 1. Mr. Jonathan Curtis, legal receiver forthe properly,filed an application for the approval of Variance DRC2012-00135, as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the subject Variance request is referred to as "the application." 2. On the 9th day of January 2013, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a 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 January 9, 2013, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application applies to the property located on the west side of Wardman Bullock Road south and west of Blue Sky Court with a street frontage of approximately 778 feet and lot depth of approximately 633 feet and is presently vacant land, and b. The property to the north of the subject site is vacant flood control property and three single-family residences, the property to the south is vacant land, the property to the east across Wardman Bullock Road consists of existing single-family residences, and the property to the west is the flood control basin; and C. The proposed use together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity as the reduced lot depth of Lot 9 has similar measurement as adjacent lots in similar to ; and • d. The project includes the concurrent submittal of Minor Exception DRC2012-00135 to increase the wall heights on Lots 1, 9 and 10 to a maximum calculated height of 8 feet (8') and Items H, I ,&J 147 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 13-08 DRC2012-00135 —JONATHAN C. CURTIS January 9, 2013 Page 2 Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18823, a subdivision of approximately 12.93 acres of land into 19 • single-family residential lots. 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 strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulations would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship inconsistent with the objectives of the Development Code in that the Lot 9 meets the requirements of the Development Code for minimum lot area. The lot is oriented with the long side parallel to the street and the shorter sides perpendicular to the street which makes the lot depth short of the required 150 feet by 26 feet. The current orientation was utilized to design the tract around an existing single-family residence constructed north of the proposed lot, the south boundary and still meet the requirements for the private street. The lot will still be able to provide all the amenities that the other lots in the area contain but will be oriented differently. b. That there are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved or to the intended use of the property that do not apply generally to other properties in the same district as Lot 9 is designed to meet the minimum requirements of the Development Code but it is oriented opposite of the lots to the north and west. The lot is oriented with the long side parallel to the street and the shorter sides perpendicular to the street which makes the lot depth short of the required 150 feet by 26 feet. C. That strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would • deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the same district as the applicant can meet the spirit of the code by providing a lot that has similar measurement as adjacent lots. With the exception of the minimum lot depth requirement, the proposed subdivision was designed to meet all applicable development standards of the Etiwanda North Specific Plan. The proposed subdivision provides for the development of homes that will be architecturally compatible with surrounding properties, and provide the potential for equestrian use consistent with surrounding properties. The applicant has designed the subdivision to provide the maximum lot sizes and depths achievable within the constraints of the property and the minimum lot depth has been achieved on all lots except Lot 9, and strict interpretation and enforcement of the minimum lot depth requirement would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the district. d. That the granting of the Variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties classified in the same district as the applicant has designed the subdivision to provide the maximum lot depths achievable within the constraints of the property and creates an equestrian community compatible with adjacent developments. The granting of the variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties in the district because the configuration of the proposed subdivision is compatible with Lot 10 within the proposed subdivision. The lot will also have to meet all the setback and height requirements of the district. e. That the granting of the Variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity as it will only reduce the lot depth and all other Development Code requirements will still have to be adhered to. • Items H, I ,&J 148 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO, 13-08 DRC2012-00135 —JONATHAN C. CURTIS January 9, 2013 Page 3 • 4.

Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of the project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, City staff determined that,with the imposition of mitigation measures, there would be no substantial evidence that the project would have a significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, the City staff provided public notice of the public comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration. b. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and all comments received regarding the Mitigated Negative Declaration and, based on the whole record before it, finds: (i)that the Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared in compliance with CEQA; and (ii) that, based on the imposition of mitigation measures, there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning Commission furtherfinds that the Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the Planning Commission. Based on these findings, the Planning Commission hereby adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration. • C. The Planning Commission has also reviewed and considered the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project that has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of Public Resources Code Section 21081.6 and finds that such Program is designed to ensure compliance with the mitigation measures during project implementation. The Planning Commission therefore adopts the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project. d. The custodian of records for the Initial Study, Mitigated Negative Declaration, Mitigation Monitoring Program and all other materials which constitute the record of proceedings upon which the Planning Commission's decision is based is the Planning Director of the City of Rancho Cucamonga.

A. Recitals. 1. Jonathan Curtis, legal receiver for the property, filed an application for the approval of Minor Exception 6RC2012-00513, 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 9th day of January 2013, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a 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 January 9, 2013, including written and oral staff reports,together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application applies to the property located on the west side of Wardman Bullock Road south and west of Blue Sky Court with a street frontage of approximately 778 feet and lot depth of approximately 633 feet and is presently vacant land; and b. The property to the north of the subject site is vacant flood control property and three single-family residences, the property to the south is vacant land, the property to the east across Wardman Bullock Road consists of existing single-family residences, and the property to the west is the flood control basin, and C. The proposed use together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity as the increase in the height of the wall to 8 feet is required for Lot 1 to meet the requirements of the fire protection plan and to increase the heights of the rear yard walls by • adding up to 2 feet, 8 inches (2'-8") of retaining wall on Lots 9 and 10 for privacy; and Items H, I ,&J 152 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 13-09 MINOR EXCEPTION DRC2012-00513 - JONATHAN c. CURTIS • January 9, 2013 Page 2 d. The project includes the concurrent submittal of a Variance to reduce the lot depth on Lot 9 to 124 feet from the required 150 feet and Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18823, a subdivision of approximately 12.93 acres of land into 19 single-family residential lots; and e. The walls on Lots 9 and 10 are necessary to ensure an adequate level of privacy and to compensate for the finished grade differences between the applicant's property and the equestrian trail between the wall and the southern property lines. The increase of the wall height on Lot 1 is to meet the requirement of the Fire Protection Plan that requires the north wall to be increased to 8 feet tall. 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. The proposed development is of sufficient size and is designed so as to provide a desirable environment within its own boundaries. Increasing the wall height by two feet will provide better fire protection on Lot 1, and increasing the height on Lots 9 and 10 with a retaining wall 2 feet 8 inches (2' - 8") (calculated height of 1-foot, 4 inches) will maintain privacy along the southern lot lines. b. The proposed development is compatible with existing and proposed land uses in the surrounding area as the applicant is proposing a residential development as part of this • application and there are residential developments to the north and east of the project with a proposed residential tract proposed to the south. This application will allow for the privacy and protection of the future residents. C. Any exceptions to or deviation from the density, requirements, or design standards result in the creation of project amenities that would not be available through strict adherence to Code provisions (e.g., additional open space, protection of natural resources, improved pedestrian connectivity, public plazas). The Minor Exception will not constitute a grant of special privilege or amenity not available to other properties classified in the same district, and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. The Minor Exception will allow a wall to provide fire protection for Lot 1 and a 6 foot tall privacy wall for Lots 9 and 10, with the addition of the retaining wall. These are amenities parcels in the area also enjoy. d. That the granting of the Minor exception will not adversely affect the interest of the public or the interest of the residents and property owners in the vicinity of the premises in question as the increased heights will be located along the tract boundary and will architecturally the existing walls in the area. e. The Minor Exception is consistent with the General Plan and the Etiwanda North Specific Plan in that it helps encourage new development by allowing the applicant to provide privacy and fire protection to the specified lots that is enjoyed by the other lots in the area. f. The Minor Exception is the minimum required in that it allows the specified • improvement to occur, but does not provide additional development rights. The granting of the Minor Exception does not provide a special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties Items H, I ,&J 153 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 13-09 MINOR EXCEPTION DRC2012-00513 — JONATHAN C. CURTIS January 9, 2013 Page 3 • classified in the same district as all properties are shall meet the minimum fire protection allowed by a particular plan and be allowed to have the same level of privacy as other residential lots. 4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application, the Planning Commission finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect upon the environment and adopts a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Monitoring Program attached to Planning Commission Resolution No. 13-07 approving Tentative Tract Map 18823, and incorporated herein by this reference, based upon the findings as follows: a.

We received this request on December 17, 2012 and pursuant to our review, the following comments are provided: Water Resources Division (Grant Mann. P.E.. Chief, (909) 387-8213): 1. It is assumed that the local agencies will establish adequate provisions for intercepting and conducting accumulated drainage flows around or through the improvement sites in a manner that will not adversely affect adjacent or downstream properties. 2. If any encroachment is anticipated on San Bernardino County Flood Control District (District) Right of Way, a permit must be obtained from the District's Permits/Operations Support Division. Environmental Management Division (Brandy Wood Ecological Resource Specialist(909) 387.7971): 1. The proposed project is located within United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) designated critical habitat for San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat (Dipodomys merriami parvus)(SBKR). SBKR is a federally endangered species and a State of California species of special concern. We appreciate the email communication with Dr. Michael O'Farrell regarding the suitability of the project site for SBKR; however during protocol trapping sessions the species was trapped within 0.5 mile of the project area in an area parallel to the project location with similar habitat in 2011. Additionally, the proposed project is adjacent to proposed mitigation lands established for the conservation of SBKR and California gnatcatcher. Consultation with the USFWS is required anytime a proposed action is likely to affect any listed species (Endangered Species Act, Section 10(a) (1) (B). To ensure during project related activities there are no impacts to SBKR, consultation with USFWS is needed.

Comments re: Mitigated Negative Declaration for Tentative Tract 18823 Page 2 of 2 2. Page 14 of the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND), section b states "a Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub plant community covers approximately 6.4 acres... has been fragmented from the wildlife corridor by the construction of the flood control basin to the west." We disagree and point out that the flood control basin construction and mitigation lands were built and established to maintain the continuity of the habitat. Approximately 150 acres are preserved north of the basin and 170 acres to the south, both of these areas are adjacent and potentially impacted by the proposed project. Impacts to the mitigation lands adjacent to the proposed project site have not been thoroughly addressed. 3. Riversidian alluvial fan sage scrub and Chamise chaparral, on-site vegetation types, are adapted and require the natural fire regime present in southern California. Furthermore, the proposed project site is located adjacent to District land, set aside as mitigation established for the conservation of SBKR and California gnatcatcher. This land is covered with fire adapted vegetation and was not established to be modified for adjacent residential development. The MND does not identify the location of the required fire break required by City of Rancho Cucamonga, nor does it address the impacts of the establishment and maintenance of the fire/fuel break to ensure the safety of the community and how it will impact the adjacent habitat conservation land. This identification and impact analysis would be required in a complete CEQA analysis. 4. Page 32, Section 10 c of the MND states..."According to the General Plan Figure RC-4 and Section 4.10 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is not within an area of sensitive biological resources; therefore, development will not adversely affect rare or endangered species of plants or animals because of the fact that the project is surrounded by urbanized land uses and is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Plan." The project area is within United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) designated critical habitat for San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat, a federally endangered species and a State of California species of special concern. Furthermore, Riversidian alluvial fan sage scrub, the vegetation present on-site is considered to be a sensitive plant community identified by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). Consultation with both agencies (USFWS and CDFW) is needed to address impacts to these sensitive biological resources.

We received this request on December 17, 2012 and pursuant to our review, the following comments are provided: Water Resources Division (Grant Mann. P.E.. Chief. (909) 387-8213): 1. It is assumed that the local agencies will establish adequate provisions for intercepting and conducting accumulated drainage flows around or through the improvement sites in a manner that will not adversely affect adjacent or downstream properties. 2. If any encroachment is anticipated on San Bernardino County Flood Control District (District) Right of Way, a permit must be obtained from the District's Permits/Operations Support Division. Environmental Management Division (Brandy Wood. Ecological Resource Specialist(909) 387-7971): 1. The proposed project is located within United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) designated critical habitat for San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat (Dipodomys merriami parvus)(SBKR). SBKR is a federally endangered species and a State of California species of special concern. We appreciate the email communication with Dr. Michael O'Farrell regarding the suitability of the project site for SBKR; however during protocol trapping sessions the species was trapped within 0.5 mile of the project area in an area parallel to the project location with similar habitat in 2011. Additionally, the proposed project is adjacent to proposed mitigation lands established for the conservation of SBKR and California gnatcatcher. Consultation with the USFWS is required anytime a proposed action is likely to affect any listed species (Endangered Species Act, Section 10(a) (1) (B). To ensure during project related activities there are no impacts to SBKR, consultation with USFWS is needed.

Comments re: Mitigated Negative Declaration for Tentative Tract 18823 Page 2 of 2 2. Page 14 of the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND), section b states "a Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub plant community covers approximately 6.4 acres.., has been fragmented from the wildlife corridor by the construction of the flood control basin to the west." We disagree and point out that the flood control basin construction and mitigation lands were built and established to maintain the continuity of the habitat. Approximately 150 acres are preserved north of the basin and 170 acres to the south, both of these areas are adjacent and potentially impacted by the proposed project. Impacts to the mitigation lands adjacent to the proposed project site have not been thoroughly addressed. 3. Riversidian alluvial fan sage scrub and Chemise chaparral, on-site vegetation types, are adapted and require the natural fire regime present in southern California. Furthermore, the proposed project site is located adjacent to District land, set aside as mitigation established for the conservation of SBKR and California gnatcatcher. This land is covered with fire adapted vegetation and was not established to be modified for adjacent residential development. The MND does not identify the location of the required fire break required by City of Rancho Cucamonga, nor does it address the impacts of the establishment and maintenance of the fire/fuel break to ensure the safety of the community and how it will impact the adjacent habitat conservation land. This identification and impact analysis would be required in a complete CEQA analysis. 4. Page 32, Section 10 c of the MND states..."According to the General Plan Figure RC-4 and Section 4.10 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is not within an area of sensitive biological resources; therefore, development will not adversely affect rare or endangered species of plants or animals because of the fact that the project is surrounded by urbanized land uses and is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Plan."

Staff has prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration of environmental impacts for consideration. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve Tentative Tract Map 18741 through the adoption of the attached Resolution of Approval and Standard Conditions. PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: A. Project Density: 1.4 dwelling units per acre B. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning: North - Single-Family Residences; Very Low Residential (1-2 dwelling units per acre) (Etiwanda North Specific Plan) South - Single-Family Residences; Low Residential (2-4 dwelling units per acre) (Etiwanda Specific Plan) East - Single-Family Residences; Low Residential (2-4 dwelling units per acre) (Etiwanda Highlands Specific Plan) West - Flood Control Basin; Flood Control C. General Plan Designations: Project Site: Very Low Residential North - Very Low Residential South - Low Residential East - Low Residential West - Flood Control/ Utility Corridor D. Site Characteristics: The project site is two rectangular-shaped parcels totaling 40.12 acres of land within the Very Low Residential District of the Etiwanda North Specific Plan. The applicant's proposal includes the subdivision of 53 lots with 51 lots being proposed as single-family residential lots, and two lots proposed as basins for water quality purposes. The parcels are vacant and located on the northwest corner of Wilson Avenue and Wardman Bullock Road. To the north of the project, is a partially-built subdivision of single-family residences; to the south and to the east across Wardman Bullock Road, are existing single-family residences; and to the west is the flood control basin. Item K PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT SUBTT18741 — CENTEX HOMES January 9, 2012 Page 2 • ANALYSIS: A. General: The project site is located within the Etiwanda Highlands themed neighborhood of the Etiwanda North Specific Plan. Within this themed area, the applicant is required to construct walls and entry points that correspond with the other walls and entry points in the surrounding area. The community wall along the perimeter of the site along Wardman Bullock Road and Wilson Avenue will consist of a stucco covered block wall with pilasters wrapped in brick veneer spaced every 40 to 60 feet. Both the wall and pilasters will contain concrete caps. The northwest corner of Wardman Bullock Road and Wilson Avenue will include a monument sign that will be wrapped in brick veneer and will identify the neighborhood area. Access into the housing tract will be accomplished at two points: One point will be off of Wardman Bullock Road and the other will be off of Wilson Avenue. Both points will include Etiwanda Highlands themed neighborhood entry portals. The proposed subdivision consists of 51 numbered lots to be utilized for future housing product and two lettered lots to be utilized as basins for water quality purposes. The applicant is not proposing housing product at this time but has commented that it will be submitted in the near future. The lots in the tract will average approximately 25,000 square feet. The lot sizes range from 20,000 square feet to approximately 40,000 square feet. These parcels will be equestrian lots and will allocate pads at the rear of the yards for either 24-foot by 24-foot or 12-foot by 48-foot corral space. The lots meet the required average width of 90 feet and a minimum depth of 150 feet. These equestrian lots have 15-foot wide local trails at the rear of the lots; however, the trails along the west and north tract boundary are proposed to be 21 feet wide for trail and emergency access. The west and north sides of the trail will have three rail PVC trail fence and the rear yards throughout the tract will have 6-foot high block walls. Trails along Wilson Avenue and Wardman Bullock Road will be 15 feet wide with three rail PVC trail fence along the street sides of the trail. B. Design Review Committee: The Design Review Committee (Fletcher, Oaxaca, Granger) reviewed the project on July 3, 2012, and recommended approval to the Planning Commission with the recommendation that they work with the property to the north for an access agreement. C. Grading Review Committee: The Grading Review Committee reviewed the project on July 3, 2012, and had several corrections for the applicant to make and requested that they correct the items and return to the Grading Review Committee. On September 18, 2012, the project returned to the Grading Review Committee and still had a two more corrections. The applicant was required to make corrections and resubmit. On November 6, 2012, the Grading Review Committee reviewed and approved the project to move forward to Planning Commission. D. Technical Review Committee: The Technical Review Committee reviewed the project on July 3, 2012, and recommended approval to the Planning Commission. E. Neighborhood Meeting: The applicant held a neighborhood meeting on August 13, 2012, at Summit Intermediate School, which was attended by approximately 14 community members. K-2 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT SUBTT18741 — CENTEX HOMES January 9, 2012 • Page 3 The major issue raised was the increased traffic in the area with the additional houses. The applicant responded by stating that Wilson Avenue will soon be constructed and this improvement will alleviate the traffic. The streets around the area were designed and constructed to accommodate the proposed traffic. F. Environmental Assessment: Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of the project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, the City staff determined that, with the imposition of mitigation measures related to air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, geology and soils, hazards and waste materials, hydrology and water quality, and noise there would be no substantial evidence that the project would have a significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, the City staff provided public notice of the public comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration. A Mitigation Monitoring Program has also been prepared to ensure implementation of, and compliance with, the mitigation measures for the project. CORRESPONDENCE: This item was advertised as a public hearing in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were mailed to all property owners within a 660-foot radius of the project site. • Respectfully submitted, Jeffrey A. loom Deputy City Manager/Economic & Community Development JAB:SF/ge Attachments: Exhibit A - Aerial Photo Exhibit B - Site Utilization Map Exhibit C - Grading Plan Exhibit D - Cut and Fill Plan Exhibit E - Fire Access Plan Exhibit F - Conceptual Landscape Plan Exhibit G - Initial Studies I and II (additional studies available on request) Draft Resolution of Approval for Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18741 K-3 r f - ._ �' rye. .� •.r.. .� 1 3 n 1 r' s f y I �� �4 ����.' ddb �r �' "1•1 � � '- ..� � .� �' � I 11 �. m • TENTATIVE TRACT MAP NO. 18741 — — ®"''i ®� a= SITE UTILIZATION MAP --------------------- IOU I e® ar a a uav P ' e I __ -1�J-J__I -.1,"T �, I jj •w �2UB716741 x I � III' � ��� IiL �. u l r � mre .wn I 27 SHUT IMM, 2 r MI I!I i » e 31EEi 5 o .. _ I � i.ccm¢ I r.

( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) b) Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) not limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a State Scenic Highway? C) Substantially degrade the existing visual character or ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) quality of the site and its surroundings? d) Create a new source of substantial light or glare, ( ) ( ) (✓) ( ) which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the area? Comments: a) There are no significant vistas within or adjacent to the project site. The site is not within a view corridor according to General Plan Figure LU-6. b) The project site contains no scenic resources and no historic buildings within a State Scenic Highway. There are no State Scenic Highways within the City of Rancho • Cucamonga. C) The site is located on the northwest corner of Wardman Bullock Road and Wilson Avenue and is characterized by single-family development to the south and east, a partially developed single-family development to the north and a flood control basin to the west. The visual quality of the area will not degrade as a result of this project because this project is consistent with the area as there are existing single-family residences on three sides of the projects. Design Review is required prior to approval and this project was reviewed by staff and is consistent with the Development Code and Design Guidelines. City standards require the developer to underground existing and new utility lines and facilities to minimize unsightly appearance of overhead utility lines and utility enclosures in accordance with Planning Commission Resolution No. 87-96, unless exempted by said Resolution. d) The project would increase the number of streetlights and security lighting used in the immediate vicinity. The design and placement of light fixtures will be shown on site plans which require review for consistency with City standards that require shielding, diffusing, or indirect lighting to avoid glare. Lighting will be selected and located to confine the area of illumination to within the project site. The impact is not considered significant. 2. AGRICULTURAL RESOURCES.

Comments: a) The site is not designated as Prime Farmlands, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance. The site is vacant land located at the northwest corner of Wilson Avenue and Wardman Bullock Road and is characterized by single-family development to the south and east, a partially developed single-family development to the north and a flood control basin to the west. There are approximately 209 acres of Farmland of Local Importance, Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance within the City of Rancho Cucamonga according to the General Plan and the California • Department of Conservation Farmland Map 2010. Concentrations of Important Farmland are sparsely located in the southern and eastern parts of the City that is characterized by existing and planned development. Farmland in the southern portion of the City is characterized by industrial, residential, and commercial land uses and farmland in the eastern portion of the City is within the Etiwanda area and planned for development. Further, a large number of the designated farmland parcels are small, ranging from 3 acres to 30 acres, and their economic viability is doubtful; therefore, they are not intended to be retained as farmland in the General Plan Land Use Plan. The General Plan FPEIR identified the conversion of farmlands to urban uses as a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. b) There is no agriculturally zoned land within the City of Rancho Cucamonga. There are no Williamson Act contracts within the City. C) There are no lands within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that is zoned as forest land or timberland. Therefore no impacts would occur related to the conversion of forest land to non-forest use. Further, there are no areas within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that are zoned as forest land, timberland, or Timberland Production. No mitigation is required. d) There are no lands within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that qualify as forest land or timberland. Therefore no impacts would occur related of the loss or conversion of forest land to non-forest use. Further, there are no areas within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that are zoned as forest land, timberland, or Timberland Production. e) The site is vacant land located at the northwest corner of Wilson Avenue and Wardman • Bullock Road and is characterized by single-family development to the south and east, a partially developed single-family development to the north and a flood control basin to the K38 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 5 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Fotantiany with Than pp 9 Significant Mitigation Significam No Impact Incoroorat.d IhiDad Impact west. Although there is grazing land adjacent to the site this area has been isolated from the wild life interface by the construction of a flood control basin to the west and homes to the north, south and east of the project site. Furthermore, there are no lands within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that qualify as forest land. Therefore, there is no potential for conversion of forest land to a non-forest use. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. 3. AIR QUALITY. Would the project: a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) applicable air quality plan? b) Violate any air quality standard or contribute ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation? c) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non-attainment under an applicable Federal or State ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions that exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors? d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) • concentrations? e) Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) number of people? Comments: a) As noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.3), the proposed project would not interfere with the region's ability to comply with Federal and State air quality standards for Criterion 1 Increase in the Frequency or Severity of Violations (local air quality impacts) or Criterion 2 Exceed Assumptions in the AQMP (consistency with the 2003 AQMP. Therefore the project is consistent with the 2003 AQMP and is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. b) Both the State of California and the federal government have established health-based ambient air quality standards (AAQS) for seven air pollutants. These pollutants include ozone (03), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), coarse particulate matter with a diameter or 10 microns or less (PM10), fine particulate matter less than 2.5 (PM2.5) microns in diameter and lead. Among these pollutants, ozone and particulate matter (PM,o and PM2.5) are considered regional pollutants while the others have more localized effects. In addition, the State of California has set standards for sulfates, hydrogen sulfide (1-12S), vinyl chloride and visibility reducing particles. These standards are designed to protect the health and welfare of the populace with a reasonable margin of safety. The City of Rancho Cucamonga area is within the South Coast Air Basin, which is under the jurisdiction of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). The • California Clean Air Act (CCAA) provides the SCAQMD with the authority to manage transportation activities at indirect sources. Indirect sources of pollution are generated when minor sources collectively emit a substantial amount of pollution. Examples of this K39 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 6 Less ma • Significant Lass Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially wah Than PP 9 Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incorporated Impact Impact include motor vehicles at an intersection, a mall and on highways. SCAQMD also regulates stationary sources of pollution within in jurisdictional area. Direct emissions from motor vehicles are regulated by the Air Resources Board (ARB). The combination of topography, low mixing height, abundant sunshine, and emissions from the second largest urban area in the United States gives the Basin the worst air pollution problem in the nation. The Basin experiences a persistent temperature inversion (increasing temperature with increasing altitude); this inversion (coupled with low wind speeds) limits the vertical dispersion of air contaminants, holding them relatively near the ground. Pursuant to the Federal Clean Air Act (FCAA) of 1970, the EPA established national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for six major pollutants, termed criteria pollutants: ozone (03), coarse particulate matter with a diameter or 10 microns or less (PM10), fine particulate matter less than 2.5 (PM2.5) microns in diameter, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and lead. Criteria pollutants are defined as those pollutants for which the Federal and State governments have established AAQS, or criteria, for outdoor concentrations in order to protect public health. Data collected at permanent monitoring stations are used by the EPA to classify regions as "attainment" or "non-attainment" depending on whether the regions met the requirements stated in the primary NAAQS. Nonattainment areas have additional restrictions as required by the EPA. The EPA has designated the Southern • California Association of Governments (SCAG) as the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) responsible for ensuring the Basin's compliance with the FCAA. The South Coast Air Basin is in Non-Attainment Status for Ozone, PMio and PM2,5. Specific criteria for determining whether the potential air quality impacts of a project are significant are set forth in the SCAQMD's CEQA Air Quality Handbook. The criteria include daily emissions thresholds, compliance with State and national air quality standards, and consistency with the current AQMP. As prescribed by SCAQMD, an air impact study was prepared by (Michael Brandman Associates, October 6, 2011) that utilizes the California Emissions Estimator Model (CalEEMod.). CaIEEMod Version 2011.1.1 methodology and CEQA Air Quality Handbook, April 1993 to evaluate short-term construction.emissions and short-term construction emissions for localized significant thresholds, long-term operational emissions, operation emissions for localized significant thresholds, and Green House Gas Emissions.

Note:The maximum daily emissions refer to the maximum emissions that would occur in one day; it was assumed that the grading activities do not occur at the same time as the other construction activities;therefore, their emissions are not summed. VOG =Volatile organic compounds; NOx= nitrogen oxides; CO =carbon monoxide; SOx= oxides sulfur oxides; PM10 and PM2.5= particulate matter Source of thresholds: South Coast Air Quality Management District 2011 a. Source of Emissions:Appendix A: CalEEMod Output Equipment Exhausts and Related Construction Activities Construction activities produce combustion emissions from various sources such as site grading, utility engines, on-site heavy-duty construction vehicles, asphalt paving, and • motor vehicles transporting the construction crew. Exhaust emissions from construction activities envisioned on site would vary daily as construction activity levels change. The use of construction equipment on site would result in localized exhaust emissions. Fugitive Dust Fugitive dust emissions are generally emissions associated with land clearing and exposure of soils to the air and wind, and cut-and-fill grading operations. Dust generated during construction varies substantially on a project-by project basis, depending on the level of activity, the specific operation and weather conditions at the time of construction. Construction emissions can vary greatly depending on the level of activity, the specific operations taking place, the equipment being operated, local soils, weather conditions and other factors. The proposed project will be required to comply with SCAQMD Rules 402 and 403 to control fugitive dust. Architectural Coatings Architectural coatings contain VOCs that are similar to ROCS and are part of the 03 precursors. There will be residential building proposed for the project at a later date. Based on the proposed project, it is estimated that the proposed buildings will result in approximately 34.4 lbs of VOC per day during the coating phase. The emissions would occur after grading activities, near the end of the construction period. Therefore, this VOC emission is the principal air emission and is less than the SCAQMD VOC threshold of 75 lbs/day. Emissions associated with architectural coatings could be reduced by using pre- coated/natural-colored building materials, using water-based or low-VOC coating, and using coating transfer or spray equipment with high transfer efficiency. For example, a high-volume, low-pressure (HVLP) spray method is a coating application system operated at air pressure between 0.1 and 10 pounds per square inch gauge (psig), with 65 percent K41 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 8 Less Than • Less Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Petentiany Orth Than PP g ourcSignificant Mitigaton Significant No Imoaa Incorporated Imoact Impact transfer efficiency. Manual applications such as paintbrush, and roller trowel, spatula, dauber, rag, or sponge have 100 percent transfer efficiency. Odors Heavy-duty equipment in the project area during construction would emit odors. However, the construction activity would cease to occur after individual construction is completed. No other sources of objectionable odors have been identified for the proposed project, and no mitigation measures are required. In compliance with SCAQMD Rule 402 the proposed uses are not anticipated to emit any objectionable odors. Therefore, objectionable odors posing a health risk to potential on-site and existing off-site uses would not occur as a result of the proposed project. Naturally Occurring Asbestos The proposed project is located in San Bernardino County, and it is not among the counties that are found to have serpentine and ultramafic rock in their soils. In addition, there has been no serpentine or ultramafic rock found in the project area. Therefore, the potential risk for naturally occurring asbestos (NOA) during project construction is small and less than significant. 2010 General Plan FPEIR Air Quality Analysis and Mitigation Measures (short term) Short Term (Construction) Emissions - Continued development will contribute to the • pollutant levels in the Rancho Cucamonga area, which already exceed Federal and State standards. During the construction phases of development, on-site stationary sources, heavy-duty construction vehicles, construction worker vehicles, and energy use will generate emissions. In addition, fugitive dust would also be generated during grading and construction activities. While most of the dust would settle on or near the project site, smaller particles would remain in the atmosphere, increasing particle levels within the surrounding area. Construction is an on-going industry in the Rancho Cucamonga area. Construction workers and equipment work and operate at one development site until their tasks are complete. Nevertheless, fugitive dust and equipment emissions are required to be assessed by the South Coast Air Quality Management District(SCAQMD) on a project- specific basis and in conformance with the General Plan FPEIR. Therefore, the following mitigation measures as identified in the FPEIR shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels: 1) During project construction, construction equipment shall be properly maintained at an offsite location; maintenance shall include proper tuning and timing of engines so as to reduce operational emissions. The contractor shall ensure that all construction equipment is being properly serviced and maintained as per manufacturers' specifications. Maintenance records shall be available at the construction site for City verification. 2) Prior to the issuance of any grading permits, the developer shall submit construction plans to the City denoting the proposed schedule and projected equipment use. Construction contractors shall provide evidence that low emission mobile construction equipment will be utilized, or that their use was • investigated and found to be infeasible for the project. Contractors shall also K42 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 9 • Less Than loss tarn Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Mtn Than pp 9 Significant Wgahon Slanificant No Impact Incorooraled J. act Im acl conform to any construction measures imposed by the South Coast Air Quality Management District(SCAQMD) as well as City Planning Staff. 3) All paints and coatings shall meet or exceed performance standards noted in SCAQMD Rule 1113. Paints and coatings shall be applied either by hand or high-volume, low-pressure spray. 4) All asphalt shall meet or exceed performance standards noted in SCAQMD Rule 1108. 5) All construction equipment shall comply with SCAQMD Rules 402 and 403. Additionally, contractors shall include the following provisions: • Reestablish ground cover on the construction site through seeding and watering. • Pave or apply gravel to any on-site haul roads. • Phase grading to prevent the susceptibility of large areas to erosion over extended periods of time. • Schedule activities to minimize the amounts of exposed excavated soil during and after the end of work periods. • • Dispose of surplus excavated material in accordance with local ordinances and use sound engineering practices. • Sweep streets according to a schedule established by the City if silt is carried over to adjacent public thoroughfares or occurs as a result of hauling. Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction. • Suspend grading operations during high winds (i.e., wind speeds exceeding 25 mph) in accordance with Rule 403 requirements. • Maintain a minimum 24-inch freeboard ratio on soils haul trucks or cover payloads using tarps or other suitable means. 6) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and Regional Water Quality Control Board [RWQCB]) daily to reduce PM10 emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403. 7) Chemical soil-stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PMig emissions. 8) The construction contractor shall utilize electric or clean alternative fuel powered equipment where feasible. 9) The construction contractor shall ensure that construction-grading plans include a statement that work crews will shut off equipment when not in use. • K43 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 10 Less Than • Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially win Than Signifcant Mnigafon Significant No Irnact Incomorated Impact Impact 10) During export of soil, there shall be a maximum of 500 truck-hauling miles per day. In addition, during each day of site grading, one of the following shall be complied with: • Reduce the onsite grading equipment fleet or hours of operation to a maximum total of 11,226 horsepower hours per day (the sum of each equipment's horsepower multiplied by the hours in operation per day). • All off-road equipment shall utilize Tier 2 engines or better. Reduce the onsite grading equipment fleet or hours of operation to a maximum total of 13,890 horsepower hours per day. • All off-road equipment shall utilize Tier 3 engines or better. Reduce the onsite grading equipment fleet hours of operation to a maximum total of 22,712 horsepower hours per day. • A combination of onsite equipment and hours with onsite nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions less than 81.2 pounds per day. 11) During project construction, the developer shall prohibit onsite construction equipment from idling for more than 5 minutes in any one hour. The General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) analyzed the • impacts of Air Quality based on the future build out of the City. Based upon on the Urban Emissions Model (URBEMIS7G) estimates in Table 4.3-3 of the General Plan (FPEIR), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Ozone (03), and Particulate Matter (PM2.5 and PM10) would exceed SCAQMD thresholds for significance; therefore, they would all be cumulatively considerable if they cannot be mitigated on a project basis to a level less-than-significant.

The proposed project would result in a net increase in the number of residents in the project area; therefore, the proposed project would result in net increases in both stationary and mobile source emissions. The stationary source emissions would come from additional natural gas consumption for on- site buildings and electricity for the lighting in the buildings and at the parking area. Based on trip generation factors included in the Air Quality/Greenhouse Gas Analysis prepared by Michael Brandman Associates on October 6, 2011 long-term operation emissions associated with the proposed project, calculated with the California Emissions Estimator Model Version 2011. 1. 1 (CalEEMod), shows that the increase of all criteria pollutants as a result of the proposed project would be less than the corresponding SCAQMD daily emission thresholds/ or the project will exceed the corresponding SCAQMD daily emissions threshold. Therefore, project-related long-term air quality impacts would not be significant. Mitigation measures would not be required. 2010 General Plan FPEIR Air Quality Analysis and Mitigation Measures (long term) Long Term (Operational) Emissions - The General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) analyzed the impacts of Air Quality based on the future build out of the City. In the long-term, development consistent with the General Plan would result in significant operational vehicle emissions based upon on the URBEMIS7G model estimates in Table 4.3-3 of the General Plan FPEIR; therefore, would all be cumulatively significant if they cannot be mitigated on a project basis to a level less-than-significant. The following mitigation measures as identified in the FPEIR shall be implemented: 1) Landscape with native and/or drought-resistant species to reduce water consumption and to provide passive solar benefits. 2) Provide lighter color roofing and road materials and tree planting programs to comply with the AQMP Miscellaneous Sources MSC-01 measure. • 3) All residential and commercial structures shall be required to incorporate high-efficiency/low-polluting heating, air conditioning, appliances, and water heaters.

After implementation of the preceding mitigation measures, the General Plan FPEIR identified the citywide increase in operational emissions as a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council as noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.3). C) As noted in the General Plan FEIR (Section 4.3), continued development would contribute to the pollutant levels in the Rancho Cucamonga area, which already exceed Federal and State standards. The General Plan FPEIR identified the citywide increase in emissions as a significant and adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council. The project proposed is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. d) Sensitive receptors are defined as populations that are more susceptible to the effects of pollution than the population at large. The SCAQMD identifies the following as sensitive receptors: long-term health care facilities, rehabilitation centers, convalescent centers, retirement homes, residences, schools, playgrounds, child care centers, and athletic facilities. According to the SCAQMD, projects have the potential to create significant impacts if they are located within 1/4 mile of sensitive receptors and would emit toxic air contaminants identified in SCAQMD Rule 1401. The project site is located within 1/4 mile of a sensitive receptor. Potential impacts to air quality are consistent with the Public • Health and Safety Super-Element within the Rancho Cucamonga General Plan. During construction, there is the possibility of fugitive dust to be generated from grading the site. The mitigation measures listed under b) above and the following mitigation measure will reduce impact to less-than-significant levels. 5) All new development in the City of Rancho Cucamonga shall comply with South Coast Air Quality Management District's Rule 445, Wood Burning Devices. Rule 445 was adopted in March 2008 to reduce emissions of PM2.5 and precludes the installation of indoor or outdoor wood burning devices (i.e. fireplaces/hearths) in new development on or after March 9, 2009. e) Construction Odors (Short-term) may include odors associated with equipment use including diesel exhaust or roofing, painting and paving. These odors are temporary and would dissipate rapidly. Operation Odors (Long-term) are typically associated with the type of use. Odors from residential uses would be like cooking and gardening. Similarly common odors associated with mixed-use and commercial land uses would be expected (i.e. restaurants). Local odors from the majority of land uses would be similar to other urban areas and would not be considered significant. Industrial uses could create objectionable odors and therefore are located away from residential uses and sensitive receptors. Typically, the uses proposed do not create objectionable odors. No adverse impacts are anticipated. • K46 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 13 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially with Than PP 9 Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incpreoraled Impact Impdtl 4.

Comments: a) According to the General Plan Figure RC-4, and Section 4.4 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is within an area of sensitive biological resources: the Riversidian Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub (RAFSS), Coastal California Gnatcatcher (CAGN), and the San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat (SBKR). The project site is located at the northwest corner of Wilson Avenue and Wardman Bullock Road. The site is generally characterized by residential development to the south and east, with vacant parcels and partially constructed homes to the north, a flood control basin to the west, and grazing land to the northwest. The grazing land adjacent to the site has been isolated from the wildlife interface by the construction of a flood control basin to the west and homes to the north, south and east of the project site. -The site has also been minimally disrupted during construction of infrastructure along the east property line for the construction of public right of way and surrounding developments. According to the General Biological Resources Assessment prepared by LSA Associates, • Inc. on October 24, 2011 a Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub (RAFSS) plant community covers approximately 32.29 acres. The remainder of the site contains K47 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 14 Less Than • Significant Less Issues and Su ortln Information Sources: Potentially with Than pp 9 Significant Mitigabon Significant No Impact Incorporated Innoact Impact approximately 4.90 acres of Chamise Chaparral, 0.86 acres of Non-Native grassland and 0.19 acres are developed. The following mitigation measure shall be implemented: 1) The developer shall purchase and preserve a minimum of 38.24 acres of suitable off-site mitigation land to be accepted by a qualified management entity/agency or the payment of in-lieu fees (mitigation credits in a qualified mitigation bank) at a minimum of the equivalent to 38.24 acres to provide substitute resources at a ratio of 1:1 for the Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub prior to obtaining issuance of a rough grading permit. The developer shall provide evidence of applicable mitigation fulfillment. According to the General Biological Resources Assessment prepared by LSA Associates, Inc. on October 24, 2011, no San Bernardino Kangaroo Rats were trapped and they were determined to be not present on the project site during trapping surveys conducted on July 17, 2011, and October 6, through October 11, 2011. According to the same General Biological Resources Assessment a focused Coastal California Gnatcatcher survey was conducted from May 23 to July 9, 2011 with seven site visits during the survey the Coastal California Gnatcatcher was not observed within the project site. No substantial project impacts to special status species were anticipated in the assessment. There is suitable habitat for Plummer's mariposa lily and it was observed scattered across the site during the 2008 rare plant survey and 2011 gnatcatcher survey. Although Plummer's mariposa lily is not federally or state-listed as threatened or endangered, the • following mitigation measure shall be implemented: 2) The project applicant shall prepare a Plummer's mariposa lily mitigation plan prior to the issuance of a grading permit by the City of Rancho Cucamonga Building and Safety Services Department. The plan shall consist of transplantation or other methods of removal including "set aside" and transplantation at a receiver site(s), bulb collection or bulb augmentation within a greenhouse for future transplantation under the direction of a qualified restoration ecologist. The receiver site(s) shall be ecologically suitable and shall include the recordation of a conservation easement or deed restriction. According to Table B (Special Status Species Potentially Occurring in the Project Vicinity) of the General Biological Resources Assessment prepared by LSA Associates, Inc. on October 24, 2011, the "occurrence probability" of the Burrowing Owl is "absent as the "vegetation is too dense with too many large shrubs." Therefore no adverse impact is anticipated. According to the Jurisdictional Delineation Report prepared by LSA Associates, Inc. on May 2008, "none of the drainages on-site have a nexus to traditional navigable waters or any other interstate commerce nexus. In addition, there were no areas that met the 3 parameters (hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and wetland hydrology) necessary to meet the Army Corp of Engineers (ACOE) definition of a jurisdictional wetland." Furthermore, "none of the drainages display a contiguous channel bed and bank throughout the entire length of the drainage course traversing the site. Additionally, no riparian vegetation associated with drainages that would be potentially subject to • California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG) jurisdiction exists on-site." Lastly, "because none of the drainages on-site have a nexus to traditional navigable waters or K48 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 15 • Less Than - Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Poman(ant With han PP g Signlficanl Mitlgatlon Slgnlficen No Imoaot InconcorateE Impact Imoad any other interstate commerce, Section 401 of the Clean Water Act does not apply. However, the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) has authority...jurisdiction is based on the federal definition of wetlands (three-parameter) and other waters (OHWM) as recommended by the September 2004 Workplan." There are no wetlands on the project site and, "there were a few areas where the channel bed and banks were observed but an OHWM was not present...RWQCB jurisdiction could not be acknowledged under the recommendations from the September 2004 Workplan." b) According to the General Plan Figure RC-4, and Section 4.4 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is located within the Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub habitat. According to the _ General Biological Resources Assessment prepared by LSA Associates, Inc. on October 24, 2011 a Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub (RAFSS) plant community covers approximately 32.29 acres. The area has been isolated from the wildlife corridor by the construction of the flood control basin to the west and single-family residential development to the north, south, and east. However the Etiwanda Creek and the San Sevaine Preserve continue to provide a corridor for migrating wildlife. The following mitigation measure shall be implemented: 3) The developer shall .purchase and preserve a minimum of 38.24 acres of suitable off-site mitigation land to be accepted by a qualified management entity/agency or the payment of in-lieu fees (mitigation credits in a qualified mitigation bank) at a minimum of the equivalent to 38.24 acres to provide • substitute resources at a ratio of 1:1 for the Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub prior to obtaining issuance of a rough grading permit. The developer shall provide evidence of applicable mitigation fulfillment. According to the Jurisdictional Delineation Report prepared by LSA Associates, Inc. on May 2008, "none of the drainages on-site have a nexus to traditional navigable waters or any other interstate commerce nexus. In addition, there were no areas that met the 3 parameters (hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and wetland hydrology) necessary to meet the Army Corp of Engineers (ACOE) definition of a jurisdictional wetland." Furthermore, "none of the drainages display a contiguous channel bed and bank throughout the entire length of the drainage course traversing the site. Additionally, no riparian vegetation associated with drainages that would be potentially subject to California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG) jurisdiction exists on-site." Lastly, "because none of the drainages on-site have a nexus to traditional navigable waters or any other interstate commerce, Section 401 of the Clean Water Act does not apply. However, the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) has authority...jurisdiction is based on the federal definition of wetlands (three-parameter) and other waters (OHWM) as recommended by the September 2004 Workplan." There are no wetlands on the project site and, "there were a few areas where the channel bed and banks were observed but an OHWM was not present...RWQCB jurisdiction could not be acknowledged under the recommendations from the September 2004 Workplan." C) No wetland habitat is present on-site. As a result, project implementation would have no impact on these resources. d) The City is primarily located in an urban area that does not contain large, contiguous • natural open space areas. Wildlife potentially may move through the north/south trending tributaries in the northern portion of the City and within the Sphere of Influence. According to the General Biological Resources Assessment prepared by LSA Associates, Inc. on K49 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 16 Less Than • Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially with man Signiticant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incomorated Imoact Imoact October 24, 2011," in the vicinity of the project site the Etiwanda Fan, wildlife movement corridors have been identified as the Etiwanda Creek Wash area and the San Sevaine Wash area down to the Santa Ana River...the project site is nearly surrounded by residential housing on the north, south and east. A levee that is part of the Etiwanda Spreading Grounds borders the western edge of the site. This development along with the freeways in the vicinity of the project site has cut off any potential corridors. Therefore the development of the project site would not substantially affect wildlife movement in the area." Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. e) There are no heritage trees on the project site; therefore, the proposed project is not in conflict with any local ordinance. f) Neither the City nor the SOI are within an adopted HCP, NCCP, or other approved State Habitat Conservation Plan area. The project site is not located within a local conservation area according to the General Plan, Open Space and Conservation Plan, Figure RC-1. No conflicts with habitat conservation plans will occur. 5. CULTURAL RESOURCES. Would the project: a) Cause a substantial adverse change in the ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) significance of a historical resource as defined in § 15064.5? b) Cause a substantial adverse change in the ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) • significance of an archeological resource pursuant to § 15064.5? C) Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) resource or site or unique geologic feature? d) Disturb any human remains, including those interred ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) outside of formal cemeteries? Comments: a) The project site has not been identified as a "Historic Resource" per the standards of Rancho Cucamonga Development Code Section 17.18. There will be no impact. b) There are no known archaeological sites or resources recorded on the project site; however, the Rancho Cucamonga area is known to have been inhabited by Native Americans according to the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.6). Construction activity, particularly grading, soil excavation and compaction, could adversely affect or eliminate existing and potential archaeological resources. The General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) analyzed the impacts of Cultural Resources based on the future build out of the City. The following mitigation measures as identified in the FPEIR shall be implemented: 1) If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified archaeologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. With the assistance of the archaeologist, the City of Rancho Cucamonga will: • K50 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 17 • Less Tinian Significant Less S Issues and SupportingInformation Sources: Sotentiallr with Than ignificant Mitigation Significant No Imoact Incorporated Impact Imoact • Enact interim measures to protect undesignated sites from demolition or significant modification without an opportunity for the City to establish its archaeological value. • Consider establishing provisions to require incorporation of archaeological sites within new developments, using their special qualities as a theme or focal point. • Pursue educating the public about the archaeological heritage of the area. • Prepare a mitigation plan consistent with Section 21083.2 Archaeological resources of CEQA to eliminate adverse project effects on significant, important, and unique prehistoric resources, including but not limited to, avoiding archaeological sites, capping or covering sites with soil, planning the site as a park or green space or paying a in-kind mitigation fee. Prepare a technical resources management report, documenting the inventory, evaluation, and proposed mitigation of resources within the project area. Submit one copy of the completed report with original illustrations, to the San Bernardino County Archaeological Information Center for permanent archiving. • c) The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.6) indicates that the Rancho Cucamonga area is on an alluvial fan. According to the research performed at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County and the San Bernardino County database, no paleontological sites or resources have been recorded within the City of Rancho Cucamonga or the Sphere-of- Influence, including the project site; however, the area has a high sensitivity rating for paleontological resources. The older alluvium, which would have been deposited during the wetter climate that prevailed 10,000-100,000 years ago during the Late Pleistocene epoch of the Quaternary period, when the last "Ice Age" and the appearance of modern man occurred, may contain significant vertebrate fossils. The project site is underlain by Quaternary alluvium per the Public Safety Element of the General Plan; therefore, the following mitigation measures shall be implemented: 2) If any paleontological resource (i.e. plant or animal fossils) are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified paleontologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. The paleontologist shall submit a report of findings that will also provide specific recommendations regarding further mitigation measures (i.e., paleontological monitoring) that may be appropriate. Where mitigation monitoring is appropriate, the program must include, but not be limited to, the following measures: • Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow the rapid removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to the site full-time during the interval of earth-disturbing activities. • Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded, divert earth-disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has completed • salvage. If construction personnel make the discovery, the grading contractor should immediately divert construction and notify the monitor of the find.

No evidence is in place to suggest the project site has been used for human burials. The California Health and Safety Code (Section 7050.5) states that if human remains are discovered on-site, no further disturbance shall occur until the County Coroner has made a determination of origin and disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. As adherence to State regulations is required for all development, no mitigation is required in the unlikely event human remains are discovered on-site. No adverse impacts are anticipated. 6. GEOLOGY AND SOILS. Would the project: a) Expose people or structures to potential substantial adverse effects, including the risk of loss, injury, or death involving: I) Rupture of a known earthquake fault, as ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) delineated on the most recent Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map issued by the • State Geologist for the area or based on other substantial evidence of a known fault? Refer to Division of Mines and Geology Special Publication 42. ii) Strong seismic ground shaking? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) iii) Seismic-related ground failure, including ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) liquefaction? iv) Landslides? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) b) Result in substantial soil erosion or the loss of topsoil? ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) c) Be located on a geologic unit or soil that is unstable, ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) or that would become unstable as a result of the project, and potentially result in on- or off-site landslide, lateral spreading, subsidence, liquefaction or collapse? d) Be located on expansive soil, as defined in Table ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) 18-1-B of the Uniform Building Code (1994), creating substantial risks to life or property? e) Have soils incapable of adequately supporting the use ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) of septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of wastewater? Comments: a) No known faults pass through the site and it is not in an Earthquake Fault Zone, nor is it in • the Rancho Cucamonga City Special Study Zone along the Red Hill Fault, according to the K52 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 19 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Pptanuallr with an PP 9 Signifiwni Mitigation Significant Impatl Incomolatetl Impact TD act General Plan Figure PS-2, and Section 4.7 of the General Plan FPEIR. The Red Hill Fault, passes within 1 mile west of the site, and the Cucamonga Fault Zone lays approximately 3/< of a mile north. These faults are both capable of producing Mw 6.0-7.0 earthquakes. Also, the San Jacinto fault, capable of producing up to Mw 7.5 earthquakes is 5 miles northeasterly of the site and the San Andreas, capable of up to Mw 8.2 earthquakes, is 9 miles north of the site. Each of these faults can produce strong ground shaking. Adhering to the Uniform Building Code and Standard Conditions will ensure that geologic impacts are less-than- significant. b) The City of Rancho Cucamonga is within a designated Soil Erosion Control Area Exhibit 4.7-4 of the General Plan FPEIR. The proposed project will require the excavation, stockpiling, and/or movement of on-site soils. The Rancho Cucamonga area is subject to strong Santa Ana wind conditions during September to April, which generates blowing sand and dust, and creates erosion problems. Construction activities may temporarily exacerbate the impacts of windblown sand, resulting in temporary problems of dust control; however, development of this project under the General Plan would help to reduce windblown sand impacts in the area as pavement, roads, buildings, and landscaping are established. Therefore, the following fugitive dust mitigation measures shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels: 1) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) daily to reduce PMio emissions, in accordance with • SCAQMD Rule 403 or re-planted with drought resistant landscaping as soon as possible. 2) Frontage public streets shall be swept according to a schedule established by the City to reduce PM10 emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil off- site. Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction. 3) Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph to minimize PM10 emissions from the site during such episodes. 4) Chemical soil-stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PM10 emissions. C) The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.7) indicates that there is a potential for the hillside areas at the northern end of the City and in the SOI for slope failure, landslides, and/or erosion. Areas subject to slope instability contain slopes of 30 percent or greater. Landslides may be induced by seismic activity, rain, or construction. The City Hillside Development Regulations prohibits the development within slopes of 30 percent or greater and limit the number of units that could be constructed within the Hillside Residential and Very Low Density Residential designations in the Hillside areas. The site is not within an Earthquake hazard zone or other unstable geologic unit or soil type according to General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.7-2. Soil types on-site consist of Soboba Stony Loamy Sand Soil association according to General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.7-3. No adverse impacts are anticipated. • d) The majority of Rancho Cucamonga, including the project site, is located on alluvial soil deposits. These types of soils are not considered to be expansive. Soil types on-site consist of Soboba Stony Loamy Sand Soil association according to General Plan FPEIR K53 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 20 ess Than • Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Poten ally With Toon PP 9 Significant Mibgabon Significant No Impact Incolpwated Impact Impact Exhibit 4.7-3. These soils are typically excessively drained and highly permeable. No adverse impacts are anticipated. e) The project will connect to, and be served,by, the existing local sewer system for wastewater disposal. No septic tanks or alterntive wastewater disposal is proposed. 7. GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS. Would the project: a) Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or ( ) (✓) ( ) () indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment? b) Conflict with an applicable plan, policy or regulation adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) Comments: a) Regulations and Significance -The Federal government began studying the phenomenon of global warming as early as 1979 with the National Climate Protection Act(92 Stat. 601). In June of 2005, Governor Schwarzenegger established California's Green House Gas ("GHG") emissions reduction target in Executive Order (EO) 5-3-05. The EO created goals to reduce GHG emissions for the State of California to 2000 levels by 2010; GHG emissions reduced to 1990 levels by 2020; and GHG emissions reduced to 80 percent • below 1990 levels by 2050. Additionally, on December 7, 2009 the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) issued findings regarding GHGs under rule 202(a) of the Clean Air Act: (1) that GHGs endanger human health; and (2)that this will be the first steps to regulating GHGs through the Federal Clean Air Act. The USEPA defines six key GHGs (carbon dioxide [CO2], methane [CHa], nitrous oxide [N2O], hydro fluorocarbons [HFCs], per fluorocarbons [PFCs], and sulfur hexafluoride [SF6]. The combined emissions of these well-mixed greenhouse gases from new motor vehicles and engines contribute to GHG pollution. The western States, including Arizona, California, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, and Washington, already experience hotter, drier climates. California is a substantial contributor of GHGs and is expected to see an increase of three to four degrees Fahrenheit (°F) over the next century. Assembly Bill (AB) 32 requires that the California Air Resources Board (ARB), the lead agency for implementing AB 32, determine what the statewide GHG emission level was in 1990 and approve a statewide GHG emissions limit (427 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent) to be achieved by 2020 and prepare a Scoping Plan to outline the main strategies for meeting the 2020 deadline. Significant progress can be made toward the 2020 goal through existing technologies and improving the efficiency of energy use. Other solutions would include improving the State's infrastructure, and transitioning to cleaner and more efficient sources of energy. The ARB estimates that 38 percent of the State's GHG emissions in 2004 was from transportation sources followed by electricity generation (both in-State and out-of-State) at 28 percent and industrial at 20 percent. Residential and commercial activities account for • 9 percent, agricultural uses at 6 percent, high global warming potential gases at 3 percent, and recycling and waste at 1 percent. K54 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 21 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially With Than PP 9 Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Inco orated Im act Im act It is not anticipated that any single development project would have a substantial effect on global climate change but that GHG emissions from the project would combine with emissions across California, the United States, and the world to cumulatively contribute to global climate change. Therefore, consistent with the ARB's Climate Change Scoping Plan, the proposed project was evaluated for consistency with the Early Action Measures (Scoping Plan is a recommendation until adopted through normal rulemaking). The proposed project is assessed by determining its consistency with the 37 Recommended Actions identified by ARB. In compliance with Senate Bill (SB) 97 and CEQA, the project has been analyzed based on a qualitative analysis (CEQA 15064.4). Additionally, the ARB was directed through SB 375 to develop regional GHG emission reduction targets to be achieved within the automobile and light truck sectors for 2020 and 2035. SCAQMD and ARB maintain ambient air quality monitoring stations in the Basin. The stations closest to the project site are the Upland station and the Fontana-Arrow Highway station. The Upland station monitors all criteria pollutant except PMto, PM2.5, and SO2 which are monitored at the Fontana-Arrow Highway station. The ambient air quality in the project area for CO, NO2, and SO2 are consistently below the relevant State and Federal standards (based on ARB and EPA from 2007, 2008, and 2009 readings). Ozone, PM10, and PM2.5 levels all exceed State and Federal standards regularly. Project Related Sources of GHG's- Based on the Guidelines for the Implementation of California Environmental Quality Act, Appendix G, a project would normally be considered • to have a significant effect on air quality if the project would violate any ambient air quality standards, contribute substantially to an existing air quality violation, expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations, or conflict with adopted environmental plans and goals of the community. However, the CEQA statutes, Office of Planning and Research (OPR) guidelines, nor the draft proposed changes to the CEQA Guidelines prescribe thresholds of significance or a particular methodology for performing an impact analysis. Significance criteria are left to the judgment and discretion of the Lead Agency. Project related GHG's would include emissions from direct and indirect sources. Based on the Air Quality Analysis prepared by Michael Brandman Associates, October 6, 2011 the project would result in the following emissions of carbon dioxide [CO2], methane [CH4], nitrous oxide [N2O], and hydro fluorocarbons [HFCs] and would not result in the other GHG's - (per fluorocarbons [PFCs] and sulfur hexafluoride [SF6]). As seen in the tables below the proposed project would result in a total of 1,264 MTCO2eq/yr from construction activities and 395 MTCO2eq/yr for area sources and 2,617 MTCO2eq/yr for mobile sources. Total project related direct operation emission would result in 3012 MTCO2eq/yr. Short Term (Construction) GHG Emissions - The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.5) indicates that GHG emissions result from construction activities associated with diesel- powered construction equipment and other combustion sources (i.e. Generators, workers vehicles, material delivery, etc.). The GHG emitted by construction equipment is primarily carbon dioxide (CO2). The highest levels of construction related GHG's occur during site preparation including demolition, grading and excavation. Construction related GHG's are also emitted from off-site haul trucks and construction workers traveling to the job site. Exhaust emissions from construction activities would vary each day with the changes in construction activity on site. The combustion of fossil-based fuels creates GHG's such as • CO2, Ch,, and N2O. CH, is emitted during the fueling of heavy equipment.

Long Term (Operational) GHG'S Emissions - The primary source of GHG emissions generated by the proposed project would be from motor vehicles, combustion of natural gas for space and water heating, as well as off-site GHG emissions from generation of electricity consumed by the proposed land use development over a long term. CEQA • requires the Lead Agency to review the project for "adequacy, completeness, and a good faith effort at full disclosure," to determine potential impacts of GHG's. Therefore the K56 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 23 • Less Than Signiith Less Issues and Suing Information Sources: Paentianr With han pportSignificant Utigabon Siimpct No Impact Incorporates Impact Impact project has been analyzed based on methodologies and information available to the City at the time this document was prepared.

The project involves the subdivision of approximately 40 acres of vacant land for the future construction of 51 single-family residences and therefore would result in an increase in the net increases of both stationary and mobile source emissions. The majority of energy consumption typically occurs during project operation (more than 80 percent and less than 20 percent during construction activities). The proposed project will incorporate several design features that are consistent with the California Office of the Attorney General's recommended measures to reduce GHG emission including water efficient landscaping, • fiber optic communications infrastructure, sidewalks, and fire defensible space.

The developer of the proposed project will be required to provide fiber optic communications infrastructure, local trails that connect to Community Trails, sidewalks, fire defensible space, and water efficient landscaping. Additionally, the City is participating in the development of a Sustainable Communities Strategy(SCS) with SANBAG for the San Bernardino County area pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 375. The project's long term operation emissions will contribute to area pollutants will not exceed any of the SCAQMD's thresholds. The proposed project would have less than a significant long term impact with the following mitigation measures: 1) Construction and Building materials shall be produced and/or manufactured locally. Use "Green Building Materials" such as materials that are resource efficient, recycled and manufactured in an environmentally friendly way including low-volatile-organic-compound (VOC) materials. 2) Design all buildings to exceed California Building Code Title 24 energy standard including but not limited to any combination of; • Increased insulation, • • Limit air leakage through the structure, • Incorporate Energy Star or better rated windows, space heating and cooling equipment, light fixtures, and appliances, • Landscape and develop site utilizing shade, prevailing winds and landscaping, • Install efficient lighting and lighting control systems, • Install light colored "cool" roofs and cool pavements, • Install solar or light emitting diodes (LED's) for outdoor lighting. 3) Prepare a comprehensive water conservation strategy appropriate for the project and include the following; • Use reclaimed water for landscaping within the project if available and/or install the infrastructure to deliver and use reclaimed water. • Design irrigation to control runoff and to remove water to non-vegetated surfaces. 4) Reuse and recycle construction and demolition waste. Provide interior and exterior storage areas for recyclables and green waste in public areas. • Educate employees about reducing waste and about recycling.

Based on the reduction measures proposed for the project and the Mitigation Measures the project would reduce its GHG emission to 2,753 MTCO2eq/yr which is below the "business as usual" scenario as identified in the Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Analysis Report by Michael Brandman Associates, October 6, 2011. b) The project proposes the subdivision of approximately 40 acres of vacant land into 53 lots of which 51 will be utilized for single-family residences and 2 will be utilized as basins for water quality purposes. No other applicable plans, policies, or regulations adopted for the purpose of reducing GHG emission apply to the project. The 2010 General Plan Update included adopted policies and Standard Conditions that respond to the Attorney General and the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA). The General Plan policies and Standard Conditions guide infill and sustainable development reliant on pedestrian connections, re-use and rehabilitation of existing structures, link transportation opportunities, promote development that is sensitive to natural resources and incentivizes denser mixed use projects that maximizes diverse opportunities. The proposed project includes General Plan Policy LU-2.3: Provide direct pedestrian access connections between development projects where possible is accomplished by local equestrian and walking trails that connect to the Rancho Cucamonga trail system such as community trails in the area. General Plan Policy LU-10.1: Continue to require implementation of the City's Water Efficient Ordinance is accomplished by requiring all new developments to submit landscape plans that illustrate that they meet all the requirements of the ordinance. • General Plan Policy CM-2.1: Facilitate bicycling and walking citywide is again accomplished by connecting this project to the City's Community Trail that connects with both local and regional trails throughout the City by implementing the principles of the City's Trail Implementation Plan. General Plan Policy RC-3.1: Require the use of cost- effective methods to conserve water in new developments and promote appropriate water conservation and efficiency measures for existing businesses and residences by promoting water drip irrigation and requiring all construction meet the building code Title 24. And General Plan Policy PF-7.1: Continue to adopt programs and practices that minimize the amount of materials entering the waste stream. Encourage recycling and composting in all sectors of the community, including recycling of construction and demolition materials, in order to divert items from entering landfills. This is done by requiring builders to submit a deposit to the City which requires the builder to recycle at least 50 percent of the construction materials. The developer of the proposed project will be required to provide fiber optic communications infrastructure, local trails that connect to Community trails, sidewalks, fire defensible space, and water efficient landscaping and, therefore, is consistent with the policies of the General Plan. The General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) analyzed the impacts of GHG's and determined that GHG emissions would be cumulatively considerable, which would be a significant unavoidable adverse cumulative impact. A Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council. The proposed project would not hinder the State's GHG reduction goals established by Assembly (AB) 32 and therefore would be less than a significant impact. • K60 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 27 • Less Than Less Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially with Than PP 9 Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incomorated Impact Impact 8.

This is usually associated with individual households, small business operations, and maintenance activities like paints, cleaning solvents, fertilizers, and motor oil or through construction activities that would use paints, solvents, acids, curing compounds, grease, and oils. These materials would be stored and used at individual sites. The City participates in a countywide interagency coalition, which is considered a full service Hazardous Materials Division that is more comprehensive that any other in the State. The City has an Emergency Operations Plan that meets State and Federal requirements and is in the process of updating the approved 2005 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan. Compliance with Federal, State, and local regulations concerning the storage and handling of hazardous materials and/or waste will reduce the potential for significant • impacts to a level less-than-significant. No adverse impacts are expected.

The City participates in a countywide interagency coalition, which is considered a full service Hazardous Materials Division that is more comprehensive than any other in the State. The City has an Emergency Operations Plan that meets State and Federal requirements and is in the process of updating the approved 2005 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan. Compliance with Federal, State, and local regulations concerning the storage and handling of hazardous materials or volatile fuels will reduce the potential for significant impacts to a level less-than-significant. No adverse impacts are anticipated. C) There are no schools located within 1/4 mile of the project site. The nearest schools, Etiwanda Colonies at 13144 Banyan Street and Summit Intermediate School at 5959 East Avenue, are about 1 mile southwest of the project site. Typically, the uses proposed do not create objectionable odors. No adverse impacts are anticipated. d) The proposed project is not listed as a hazardous waste or substance materials site. Recent site inspections did not reveal the presence of discarded drums or illegal dumping of hazardous materials. No impact is anticipated. P P e) The site is not located within an airport land use plan according to the General Plan Figure PS-7 and General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.8-1 and is not within 2 miles of a public airport. The project site is located approximately 6 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport and is offset north of the flight path. No impact is anticipated. f) There are no private airstrips within the City. The nearest private airstrip, Cable Airport, is • located approximately 2 and 1/2 miles to the west of the City's westerly limits. No impact is anticipated. g) The City has a developed roadway network that provides emergency access and evacuation routes to existing development. New development will be located on a site that has access to existing roadways. The City's Emergency Operation Plan, which is updated every three years, includes policies and procedures to be administered by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in the event of a disaster. Because the project includes at least two points of public street access and is required to comply with all applicable City codes, including local fire ordinances, no adverse impacts are anticipated. h) Rancho Cucamonga faces the greatest ongoing threat from wind-driven fires in the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone found in the northern part of the City. The project is located with the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone according to General Plan Figure PS-1. The City recognizes the risk and has adopted policies and Standard Conditions that limit uses to Very Low density residential development and Hillside residential uses in these areas to limit property exposed to wildland fire hazards. The project shall prepare a Fire Protection Plan to outline appropriate measures to address fire hazards. Therefore, the following wildland fire mitigation measure shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels: 1) The project shall comply with Chapter 7A of the California Building Code (CBC), which includes building standards for the Wildland-Urban Interface Fire Area. The standards call for the use of ignition-resistant materials and design to inhibit the intrusion of flame or burning embers projected by a • vegetation fire and help reduce losses resulting from repeated cycles of interface fire disasters.

HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY. Would the project: a) Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge ( (✓) O ( ) requirements? b) Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) substantially with groundwater recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local groundwater table level (e.g., the production rate of pre-existing nearby wells would drop to a level which would not support existing land uses or planned uses for which permits have been - granted)? C) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, in a manner, which would result in substantial erosion or siltation on-or off-site? d) Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) site or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, or substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a manner, which would result in flooding on-or off-site? • e) Create or contribute runoff water which would exceed ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) the capacity of existing or planned stormwater drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoff? f) Otherwise substantially degrade water quality? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) g) Place housing within a 100-year flood hazard area as ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) mapped on a Federal Flood Hazard Boundary or Flood Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map? h) Place within a 100-year flood hazard area structures ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) that would impede or redirect flood flows? i) Expose people or structures to a significant risk of ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) loss, injury or death involving flooding, including flooding as a result of the failure of a levee or dam? j) Inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) comments: a) Water and sewer service is provided by the Cucamonga Valley Water District (CVWD). The project is designed to connect to existing water and sewer systems. The State of California is authorized to administer various aspects of the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit under Section 402 of the Clean Water Act. The General Construction Permit treats any construction activity over 1 acre as an industrial activity, requiring a permit under the State's General NPDES permit. The State Water • Resource Control Board (SWRCB), through the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), Santa Ana Region, administers these permits.

Impact Incorppratetl Impact Impact Construction activities covered under the State's General Construction permit include removal of vegetation, grading, excavating, or any other activity for new development or significant redevelopment. Prior to commencement of construction of a project, a discharger must submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) to obtain coverage under the General Permit. The General Permit requires all dischargers to comply with the following during construction activities, including site clearance and grading: • Develop and implement a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) that would specify Best Management Practices (BMPs) to prevent construction pollutants from contacting storm water and with the intent of keeping all products of erosion from moving off-site into receiving waters. • Eliminate or reduce non-storm water discharges to storm sewer systems and other waters of the nation. • Perform inspections of all BMPs. Waste discharges include discharges of storm water and construction project discharges. A construction project for new development or significant redevelopment requires an NPDES permit. Construction project proponents are required to prepare an SWPPP. To comply with the NPDES, the project's construction contractor will be required to prepare an SWPPP during construction activities, and a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) for post-construction operational management of storm water runoff. The applicant has • submitted a WQMP, prepared by AEI-CASC Consulting, August 2009, which identifies BMPs to minimize the amount of pollutants, such as eroded soils, entering the drainage system after construction. Runoff from driveways, roads and other impermeable surfaces must be controlled through an on-site drainage system. BMPs include both structural and non-structural control methods. Structural controls used to manage storm water pollutant levels include detention basins, oil/grit separators, and porous pavement. Non-structural controls focus on controlling pollutants at the source, generally through implementing erosion and sediment control plans, and various Business Plans that must be developed by any businesses that store and use hazardous materials. Practices such as periodic parking lot sweeping can substantially reduce the amount of pollutants entering the storm drain system. The following mitigation measures are required to control additional storm water effluent: Construction Activities: 1) Prior to issuance of grading permits, the permit applicant shall submit to the Building Official for approval, a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) specifically identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that shall be used on-site to reduce pollutants during construction activities entering the storm drain system to the maximum extent practical. 2) An Erosion Control Plan shall be prepared, included in the Grading Plan, and implemented for the proposed project that identifies specific measures to control on-site and off-site erosion from the time ground disturbing activities are initiated through completion of grading. This Erosion Control Plan shall include the followingmeasures at a minimum: a Specify the timing of ) P Y 9 grading and construction to minimize soil exposure to rainy periods • experienced in Southern California, and b) An inspection and maintenance K64 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 31 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially with man pp g Significant Mitigabon Significant No Impact InCOlporate4 Impact Impact program shall be included to ensure that any erosion which does occur either on-site or off-site as a result of this project will be corrected through a remediation or restoration program within a specified time frame. 3) During construction, temporary berms such as sandbags or gravel dikes must be used to prevent discharge of debris or sediment from the site when there is rainfall or other runoff. 4) During construction, to remove pollutants, street cleaning will be performed prior to storm events and after the use of water trucks to control dust in order to prevent discharge of debris or sediment from the site. Post- Construction Operational: 1) The developer shall implement the BMPs identified in the Water Quality Management Plan prepared by AEI-CASC Consulting, August 2009 to reduce pollutants after construction entering the storm drain system to the maximum extent practical. 2) Landscaping plans shall include provisions for controlling and minimizing the use of fertilizers/pesticides/herbicides. Landscaped areas shall be • monitored and maintained for at least two years to ensure adequate coverage and stable growth. Plans for these areas, including monitoring provisions for a minimum of two years, shall be submitted to the City for review and approval prior to the issuance of grading permits. b) According to CVWD, approximately 35 percent of the City's water is currently provided from water supplies coming from the underlying Chino and Cucamonga Groundwater Basins. CVWD complies with its prescriptive water rights as managed by the Chino Basin Watermaster and will not deplete the local groundwater resource. The proposed project will not deplete groundwater supplies, nor will it interfere with recharge because it is not within an area designated as a recharge basin or spreading ground according to General Plan Figure RC-3. Development of the site will require the grading and excavation, but would not affect the existing aquifer, estimated to be about 300 to 470 feet below the ground surface. As noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.9), continued development citywide will increase water needs but will not be a significant impact. CVWD has plans to meet this increased need to the year 2030. No impacts are anticipated. C) The project will cause changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and amount of surface water runoff because of the amount of new building and hardscape proposed on the site; however, the project will not alter the course of any stream or river. All runoff will be conveyed to existing storm drain facilities, which have been designed to handle the flows. The project design includes landscaping of all non-hardscape areas to prevent erosion. A Grading and Drainage Plan must be approved by the Building Official and City Engineer prior to issuance of grading permits. Therefore, the project will not result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site. The impact is not considered significant. • d) The project will cause changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and amount of surface water runoff because of the amount of new building and hardscape proposed on a site; however, the project will not alter the course of any stream or river.

A Grading and Drainage Plan must be approved by the Building Oficial and City Engineer prior to issuance of grading permits. Therefore, increase in runoff from the site will not result in flooding on-or off-site. No impacts are anticipated. e) The project will cause changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and amount of surface water runoff because of the amount of new building and hardscape proposed on a site; however, all runoff will be conveyed to existing storm drain facilities, which have been designed to handle the flows. The project will not result in substantial additional sources of polluted runoff. A Grading and Drainage Plan must be approved by the Building Official and City Engineer prior to issuance of grading permits. Therefore, increase in runoff from the site will not result in flooding on- or off-site. No impacts are anticipated. f) Grading activities associated with the construction period could result in a temporary increase in the amount of suspended solids in surface flows during a concurrent storm event, thus resulting in surface water quality impacts. The site is for new development; therefore, is required to comply with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) to minimize water pollution. The following mitigation measures shall be implemented: 1) Prior to issuance of building permits, the applicant shall submit to the City Building Official for approval of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP), • including a project description and identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that will be used on-site to reduce pollutants into the storm drain system to the maximum extent practicable. The WQMP shall identify the structural and non-structural measures consistent with the Guidelines for New Development and Redevelopment adopted by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in June 2004. 2) Prior to issuance of grading or paving permits, the applicant shall obtain a Notice of Intent (NOI) to comply with obtaining coverage under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Construction Storm Water Permit from the State Water Resources Control Board. Evidence that this has been obtained (i.e., a copy of the Waste Discharger's Identification Number) shall be submitted to the City Building Official for coverage under the NPDES General Construction Permit. g) The project site is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area according to General Plan Figure PS-5. No adverse impacts are expected. h) The project site is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area according to General Plan Figure PS-5. No adverse impacts are expected. i) The Rancho Cucamonga area is flood protected by an extensive storm drain system designed to adequately convey floodwaters from a 100-year storm event. The system is substantially improved and provides an integrated approach for regional and local drainage flows. This existing system includes several debris dams and levees north of the City, spreading grounds, concrete-lined channels, and underground storm drains as • shown in General Plan Figure PS-6. The project site is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area according to General Plan Figure PS-5. No adverse impacts are expected.

The Rancho Cucamonga area sits at the base of the steep eastern San Gabriel Mountains whose deep canyons were cut by mountain streams. Numerous man-made controls have been constructed to reduce the mudflow impacts to the level of non-significance within the City. This existing system includes several debris dams and levees north of the City, and spreading grounds both within and north of the City. 10. LAND USE AND PLANNING. Would the project: a) Physically divide an established community? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) b) Conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the project (including, but not limited to, a general plan, specific plan, local coastal program, or zoning ordinance) adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect? C) Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) or natural community conservation plan? Comments: • a) The site is located on the northwest corner of Wardman Bullock Road and Wilson Avenue and is characterized by single-family development to the south and east, a partially developed single-family development to the north and a flood control basin to the west. This project will be of similar design and size to surrounding residential development to the north, south, and east of the project. The project will become a part of the larger community. No adverse impacts are anticipated. b) The project site land use designation is Very Low Residential. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan and does not interfere with any policies for environmental protection, SCAG's Compass Blueprint, or SCAG's Regional Comprehensive Plan. General Plan Policy LU-2.3: Provide direct pedestrian access connections between development projects where possible is accomplished by local equestrian and walking trails that connect to the Rancho Cucamonga trail system such as community trails in the area. General Plan Policy LU-10.1: Continue to require implementation of the City's Water Efficient Ordinance is accomplished by requiring all new developments to submit landscape plans that illustrate that they meet all the requirements of the ordinance. General Plan Policy CM-2.1: Facilitate bicycling and walking citywide is again accomplished by connecting this project to the City's Community Trail that connects with both local and regional trails throughout the City by implementing the principles of the City's Trail Implementation Plan. General Plan Policy RC-3.1: Require the use of cost- effective methods to conserve water in new developments and promote appropriate water conservation and efficiency measures for existing businesses and residences by promoting water drip irrigation and requiring all construction meet the building code Title 24. And, General Plan Policy PF-7.1: Continue to adopt programs and practices that minimize the amount of materials entering the waste stream. Encourage recycling and composting in all sectors of the community, including recycling of construction and • demolition materials, in order to divert items from entering landfills. This is done by requiring builders to submit a deposit to the City which requires the builder to recycle at least 50 percent of the construction materials. As such, no impacts are anticipated.

According to General Plan Figure RC-4 and Section 4.10 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is not within an area of sensitive biological resources; therefore, development will not adversely affect rare or endangered species of plants or animals because of the fact that the project is surrounded by urbanized land uses and is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Plan. 11. MINERAL RESOURCES. Would the project: a) Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) resource that would be of value to the region and the residents of the State? b) Result in the loss of availability of a locally important ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan? Comments: a) The site is not designated as a State Aggregate Resources Area according to the City General Plan, Figure RC-2 and Table RC-1; therefore, there is no impact. b) The site is not designated by the General Plan, Figure RC-2 and Table RC-1, as a valuable mineral resource recovery site; therefore, there is no impact. • 12. NOISE. Would the project result in: a) Exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies? b) Exposure of persons to or generation of excessive ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) ground borne vibration or ground borne noise levels?

A Mitigation Measure has been included to mitigate construction related noise during grading of the site. No adverse impacts expected with Mitigation. Exterior: 1) Prior to the issuance of any grading plans a construction-related noise mitigation plan shall be submitted to the City for review and approval. The Plan shall depict the location of the construction equipment and how the noise from this equipment would be mitigated during construction. Interior: Specific mitigation measures for interior noise impacts are not possible at this time as the project does not include a house product. Mitigations measures cannot be established without knowing the design of the houses. Therefore: 1) When an application for the development of homes on the project site is submitted, the applicant (current or future) shall submit a noise assessment • to determine the required mitigations measures to reduce the noise impacts to levels of less significance: b) The normal operating uses associated with this type of project normally do not induce ground borne vibrations. There may be short-term construction related vibration. However, the applicant will be required to follow all City requirements regarding construction activities. As such, no impacts are anticipated. C) The primary source of ambient noise levels in Rancho Cucamonga is traffic. Because the project will not significantly increase traffic as analyzed in Section 16 Transportation(Traffic; it will likely not increase ambient noise levels within the vicinity of the project. d) The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.12) indicates that during a construction phase, on-site stationary sources, heavy-duty construction vehicles, and construction equipment, will generate noise exceeding City standards. The following measures are provided to mitigate the short-term noise impacts: 1) Construction or grading shall not take place between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any time on Sunday or a national holiday. 2) Construction or grading noise levels shall not exceed the standards specified in Development Code Section 17.02.120-D, as measured at the property line. Developer shall hire a consultant to perform weekly noise level monitoring as specified in Development Code Section 17.02.120. Monitoring at other times • may be required by the Building Official. Said consultant shall report their findings to the Building Official within 24 hours; however, if noise levels exceed the above standards, then the consultant shall immediately notify the Building Official. If noise levels exceed the above standards, then K69 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 36 Less Than • Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially With Than PP g Significant Mltigalion Significant No impact Inco orated Impact ImpaCl construction activities shall be reduced in intensity to a level of compliance with above noise standards or halted. 3) The perimeter block wall shall be constructed as early as possible in first phase. The preceding mitigation measures will reduce the disturbance created by on-site construction equipment but do not address the potential impacts because of the transport of construction materials and debris. The following mitigation measures shall then be required: 4) Haul truck deliveries shall not take place between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any time on Sunday or a national holiday. Additionally, if heavy trucks used for hauling would exceed 100 daily trips (counting both to and from the construction site), then the developer shall prepare a noise mitigation plan denoting any construction traffic haul routes and include appropriate noise mitigation measures. To the extent feasible, the plan shall denote haul routes that do not pass sensitive land uses or residential dwellings. e) The site is not located within an airport land use plan and is not within 2 miles of a public airport. The Project is located approximately 6 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport and is offset north of the flight path. No impact is anticipated. • f) The nearest private airstrip, Cable Airport, is located approximately 2.5 miles to the west of the City's westerly limits. No impact is anticipated. 13. POPULATION AND HOUSING. Would the project: a) Induce substantial population growth in an area, either ( ) ( ) (✓) ( ) directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)? b) Displace substantial numbers of existing housing, ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? C) Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? Comments: a) The project is located in an area that is being developed for residential uses and will include the construction of 51 single-family homes. Although the project will increase the population growth in the area there will be a less than significant impact as the project is consistent with the underlying Zoning and General Plan Designation. The density was analyzed as part of the build out in the General Plan FPEIR. Construction activities at the site will be short-term and will not attract new employees to the area. No impacts are anticipated. • K70 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 37 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Su ortin Information Sources: Potentially with Than PP g Significant Mitigation Significant No Im act Incorporated Impact ImOaet b) The project site is vacant land located in a residentially zoned district.

Therefore no adverse impact is expected. 14. PUBLIC SERVICES. Would the project result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services: a) Fire protection? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) b) Police protection? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) C) Schools? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) d) Parks? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) • e) Other public facilities? ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) Comments: a) The site, located on the northwest corner of Wardman Bullock Road and Wilson Avenue, would be served by Fire Station #6 located at 5840 East Avenue approximately 0.6 miles from the project site. The project will not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing facilities or cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities. Standard conditions of approval from the Uniform Building and Fire Codes will be placed on the project to lessen the future demand and impacts to fire services. No significant impacts are anticipated. b) The increase in residential units may lead to an increase in calls for service. Although there may be an increase in calls, additional police protection is not required as the addition of the project will not change the pattern of uses within the surrounding area and will not have a substantial increase in property to be patrolled as the project site is within an area that is regularly patrolled. C) The Etiwanda School District and the Chaffey Joint Union High School District serve the project area. Both school districts have been notified regarding the proposed development. A standard condition of approval will require the developer to pay the school impact fees. With this standard mitigation, impacts to the School Districts are not considered significant. d) The site is in a developed area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The nearest park is Legacy Park located at 5858 Santa Ynez Place about 0.5-mile from the project site. The project will not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration • of any existing facilities or cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities. A standard condition of approval will require the developer to pay Park Development Fees. No impacts are anticipated.

The site is in a developed area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The project will not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing facilities or cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities. Cumulative development within Rancho Cucamonga will increase demand for library services. According to the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.14), there will be a projected increase in library space demand but with the implementation of standard conditions the increase in Library Services would be mitigated to less than significant impact. Additionally, the Paul A. Biane Library has an additional 14,000 square foot shell of vacant library space that is planned for future Library use. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. Therefore no adverse impact is expected. 15. RECREATION. Would the project: a) Increase the use of existing neighborhood and ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated? b) Does the project include recreational facilities or ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities, which might have an adverse physical effect on the environment? • Comments: a) The site is in a developed area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The nearest park is Legacy Park located at 5858 Santa Ynez Place about 0.5-mile from the project site. This project is not proposing any new housing or large employment generator that would cause an increase in the use of parks or other recreational facilities.

Comments: a) Implementation of the proposed project will generate 507.21 vehicle trips daily. The proposed project includes the subdivision of 40 acres into 53 lots for 51 lots proposed for future development of detached single-family residential units and 2 to be utilized as basins for water quality. The Rancho Cucamonga Traffic Model estimates that each single-family detached dwelling unit will generate 9.57 trips daily. As noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.16), continued development will contribute to the traffic load in the Rancho Cucamonga area. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. The project is in an area that is developed with existing street improvements or that will be included in project design. The project will not create a substantial increase in the number of vehicle trips, traffic volume, or congestion at intersections. The project site will be required to provide street improvements (curb, gutter and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the site per City roadway standards. In addition, the City has established a Transportation Development fee that must be paid by the applicant prior to issuance of building permits.

On May 18, 2005, the City of Rancho Cucamonga adopted a Comprehensive Transportation Fee Schedule updating these development impact fees. As a result, the San Bernardino County Congestion Management Agency waived the Congestion Management Plan (CMP) Traffic Impact Analysis reporting requirement. This project will be required, as a condition of approval, to pay the adopted transportation development fee prior to issuance of building permit. The project is in an area that is mostly developed with all street improvements existing. The project will not negatively impact the level of service standards on adjacent arterials. The project will be required to provide street improvements (curb, gutter, and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the site. No impacts are anticipated. C) Located approximately 6 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport, the site is offset north of the flight path and will not change air traffic patterns. No impacts are anticipated. d) The project is in an area that is being developed. The project will be required to provide street improvements (curb, gutter, and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the site. The project design does not include any sharp curves or dangerous intersections or farming uses. The project will, therefore, not create a substantial increase in hazards because of a design feature. No impacts are anticipated. e) The project will be designed to provide access for all emergency vehicles during • construction and upon completion of the project and will therefore not create an inadequate emergency access. No impacts are anticipated. f) The project is residential. Although houses are not part of the proposal, when the houses are submitted for review, adequate parking, specifically an enclosed garage and a driveway, in compliance with standards of the Rancho Cucamonga Development Code will be required. No impacts are anticipated. 17. UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS.

MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the ( ) (✓) ( ) ( ) quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal, or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? b) Does the project have impacts that are individually ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)? C) Does the project have environmental effects that will ( ) ( ) ( ) (✓) cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Comments: • a) According to the General Plan Figure RC4, and Section 4.4 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is within an area of sensitive biological resources: the Riversidian Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub (RAFSS), Coastal California Gnatcatcher (CAGN), and the San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat (SBKR). The project site is located at the northwest corner of Wilson Avenue and Wardman Bullock Road. The site is generally characterized by residential development to the south and east, with vacant parcels and partially constructed homes to the north, a flood control basin to the west, and grazing land to the northwest. The grazing land adjacent to the site has been isolated from the wildlife interface by the construction of a flood control basin to the west and homes to the north, south and east of the project site. -The site has also been minimally disrupted during construction of infrastructure along the east property line for the construction of public right of way and surrounding developments. According to the General Biological Resources Assessment prepared by LSA Associates, Inc. on October 24, 2011 a Riversidean Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub (RAFSS) plant community covers approximately 32.29 acres. The remainder of the site contains approximately 4.90 acres of Chamise Chapparral, 0.86 acres of Non-Native grassland and 0.19 acres developed. With the incorporation of the attached mitigation measures to offset the removal of the 38.24 acres of Riversidian Alluvial Fan Sage Scrub, the proposed project will have a less-than-significant impact. According to the General Biological Resources Assessment prepared by LSA Associates, Inc. on October 24, 2011, no San Bernardino Kangaroo Rats were trapped and they were determined to be not present on the project site during trapping surveys conducted on July 17, 2011, and October 6, through October 11, 2011. According to the same General • Biological Resources Assessment a focused Coastal California Gnatcatcher survey was conducted from May 23 to July 9, 2011 with seven site visits during the survey the Coastal K76 Initial Study for City of Rancho Cucamonga TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT18741 Page 43 • Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Foga"°anY With an PP 9 Significant c.,,rst Significant N. ea Impact Inwrparale0 Impact Impact California Gnatcatcher was not observed within the project site. No substantial project impacts to special status species were anticipated in the assessment. There is suitable habitat for Plummer's mariposa lily and it was observed scattered across the site during the 2008 rare plant survey and 2011 gnatcatcher survey. Although Plummer's mariposa lily is not federally or state-listed as threatened or endangered, with the incorporation of the attached mitigation measure, the proposed project will have a less-than-significant impact. b) If the proposed project were approved, then the applicant would be required to develop the site in accordance with the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan. The 2010 General Plan was adopted along with the certification of a Program FEIR, Findings of Fact, and a Statement of Overriding Considerations for significant adverse environmental effects of build-out in the City and Sphere-of-Influence. The City made findings that adoption of the General Plan would result in significant adverse effects to Aesthetics, Agriculture and Forest Resources, Air Quality, Climate Change and Mineral Resources. Mitigation measures were adopted for each of these resources; however, they would not reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels. As such, the City adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations balancing the benefits of development under the General Plan Update against the significant unavoidable adverse impacts (CEQA Guidelines Section 15092 and 15096(h)). These benefits include less overall traffic volumes by developing mixed-use projects that will be pedestrian friendly and conservation of valuable natural • open space. With these findings and the Statement of Overriding Considerations, no further discussion or evaluation of cumulative impacts is required. C) Development of the site under the proposed land use change would not cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly. The Initial Study identifies construction-related emissions of criteria pollutants as having a potentially significant impact. Proposed mitigation measures would further reduce emission levels. Additionally, impacts resulting from air quality would be short-term and would cease once construction activities were completed. The Initial Study identified potentially significant impacts associated with the exposure of people to increased noise levels. Mitigation measures contained in this Initial Study will ensure impacts are at less-than-significant levels.

We received this request on December 17, 2012 and pursuant to our review, the following comments are provided: Water Resources Division (Grant Mann. P.E Chief, (909) 387-8213): 1. It is assumed that the local agencies will establish adequate provisions for intercepting and conducting accumulated drainage flows around or through the improvement sites in a manner that will not adversely affect adjacent or downstream properties. 2. If any encroachment is anticipated on San Bernardino County Flood Control District (District) Right of Way, a permit must be obtained from the District's Flood Control Operations Division, Permit Section. Other on-site or off-site improvements may be required which cannot be determined at this time. Environmental Management Division (Brandy Wood Ecological Specialist(909) 387-7971 1. Page 14 of the MND states "the 'occurrence probability' of the Burrowing Owl is 'absent as the 'vegetation is too dense with too many large shrubs."' However, burrowing owls have been observed 0.75 mile away from the proposed project site in an area similarly vegetated. Furthermore, the project site is described within the MND as having 0.86 acres of Non-native grassland, a preferred habitat of burrowing owl. Protocol burrowing owl surveys need to be completed to ensure that the project proponent complies with all CEQA requirements addressing impacts to this species as well as does not violate California State law(Fish and Game Code § 1802 and Fish and Game Code 86, and prohibited by sections 3503, 3503.5 and 3513). 2. The proposed project is located within United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) designated critical habitat for San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat(Dipodomys merriami parvus)(SBKR).

While not found during the project protocol surveys, the species was trapped within 0.5 mile of the project area in an area parallel to the project location with similar habitat in 2011. Additionally, the proposed project is adjacent to proposed mitigation lands established for the conservation of SBKR and California gnatcatcher. Consultation with the USFWS is required anytime a proposed action is likely to affect any listed species (Endangered Species Act, Section 10(a) (1)(B). To ensure during project related activities there are no impacts to SBKR, consultation with USFWS is needed. 3. Riversidian alluvial fan sage scrub and Chamise chaparral, on-site vegetation types, are adapted and require the natural fire regime present in southern California. Furthermore, the proposed project is located adjacent to District land, set aside as mitigation established for the conservation of SBKR and California gnatcatcher. This land is covered with fire adapted vegetation and was not established to be modified for adjacent residential development. The MND does not identify the location of the required firebreak required by City of Rancho Cucamonga; nor does it address the impacts of the establishment and maintenance of the fire/fuel break to ensure the safety of the community,and how it will impact the adjacent habitat conservation land. This identification and impact analysis would be required in a complete CEQA analysis. 4. Page 33 Section 10 c of the MND states..."According to General Plan Figure RC-4 and Section 4.10 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is not within an area of sensitive biological resources; therefore, development will not adversely affect rare or endangered species of plants or animals because of the fact that the project is surrounded by urbanized land uses and is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Plan." The project area is within United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) designated critical habitat for San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat, a federally endangered species and a State of California species of special concern. Furthermore, Riversidian alluvial fan sage scrub, the vegetation present on-site is considered to be a sensitive plant community identified by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). Consultation with both agencies (USFWS and CDFW) is needed to address impacts to these sensitive biological resources.

Thank you for the opportunity to speak here tonight.The previous speakers have given you a broader overview of the community interest and proposed efforts for the preservation of the site known as China House. 1 would like to share with you something that is perhaps more of a personal observation that could nurture alternative solutions to demolition. On a recent Sunday morning, KCET was broadcasting a succession of episodes of More Things That Aren't Here Anymore, which was based on a popular local program called Things That Aren't Here Anymore, hosted by TV journalist Ralph Story and another show called Ralph Story's Los Angeles. Each episode highlighted a local destination, popular attraction or architectural landmark that gave Southern California its unique and colorful history. This included nightclubs, restaurants, stores, family attractions and hangouts that generated affection and fond memories for a generation of people growing up and living in the region. Sadly many of these places are no longer here because they may have fallen victim to economic hardships, normal wear and tear, neglect,or general public disinterest. They only now can be appreciated through a historic lens offered in print, in text, in film, in oral histories and perhaps a commemoration plaque. Often when a place of cultural or historical significance disappears from our landscape, a fastener that supports the bridge connecting past and present is forever gone. It weakens the visual threads that make up a grander, ongoing narrative. It denies future generations a vivid testament of their past and what it means to embrace one's heritage. The Rancho Cucamonga City Council seems to have appreciated what such a loss could mean when it voted to designate China House a landmark in 1979. If China House is allowed to be leveled, what remains of any presence of Chinese-Americans and their historic contributions to the prosperity of the Greater San Bernardino County will be complete wiped from memory. How then will the story of the Inland Empire and the Chinese presence in this major region be truly understood completely if the only structure left extant representing Rancho Cucamonga's Chinatown is destroyed? What can effectively testify to the Chinese efforts in cultivating the area's bountiful citrus and supplied the backbreaking labor, which energize the region's viticultural industry? CACA PAGE 3 OF 4 Further, here sits a symbol of that pioneer spirit where ambition, determination and inventiveness vitalized the American West. The China House is an architectural treasure, showcasing the success adaptation of materials available and construction that has truly weathered through the passage of time. Thankfully,we have concerned individuals who serve on public and community organs, such as this Planning and Historic Preservation Commission, who are, in addition to reviewing land use application, responsible for determining which buildings and/or sites are historic, designating local historic landmarks, and approving alterations to local landmarks. Although the commission had consented to the demolition, I hope that time can be spared to truly look at the potential of preserving the site. I hope that we can explore solutions through dialogue and sharing of expertise and resources among the many stakeholders, so the China House doesn't end up as sad spotlight in some future episode of Things That Aren't Here Anymore. Thank you.

I am honored to be speaking on behalf of the Los Angeles Chapter of the Chinese American Citizens Alliance, the oldest civil rights and social advocacy organization for Chinese-Americans, established in 1895. We're a national organization with many chapters—we call them lodges—across the nation. The Los Angeles Lodge was founded almost 101 years ago. The Chinese-American immigrant history and experience in the United States is a grand story of daunting challenges,of overcoming obstacles, of hard-fought opportunity, of amazing successes. All people who share this history-driven narrative have crafted for themselves reminders of the struggles and the achievements. They are the physical monuments,the public celebrations,the official recognition and the attainment of civic, business and professional leadership in community through education and industry. I am here to express my hope that we can possibly create another of these testaments to Chinese-American heritage in Southern California by saving the China House from demolition. Thanks to the efforts of the Rancho Cucamonga Historic Association and the local press, public attention has been increased especially with many Los Angeles-based Asian-American community organizations such as the Asian Pacific Islander American Historic Preservation Forum, Chinese Historical Society of Southern California,Chinese American Museum, Organization for Chinese Americans, and C.A.C.A. That concerted interest led to a recent visit to the site by members of these groups the day after Christmas. I am hoping that our presence here today can convince members of the Planning and Historic Preservation Commission to call for a delay in demolition, so there could be further deliberation on whether there are viable alternatives for the structure, which can possibly satisfy stakeholders and constituencies. The structure is scheduled for demolition this month; therefore, we have an urgency of raising our concerns before agencies of the municipal government, such as your commission. Thank you for your time and attention. CACA PAGE 1 OF 4 po, ��C) covl January 9,2013: Statement#2 Planning and Historic Preservation Commission, Civic Center Council Chamber, 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91730 Good evening, I appreciate this opportunity to speak to the commissioners and to have my remarks enter the public record of these proceedings. I am a member of the Los Angeles Chapter of the Chinese American Citizens Alliance,the nation's oldest civil rights and social advocacy organization for Chinese Americans, established more than a century ago. The Los Angeles Lodge was established in 1912 and we celebrated our centennial last May. A significant part of the national organization's century-long efforts involves elevating public awareness of the issues that impact our community,whether they are social,economic, political or historical. There are five Cardinal Principles which are the pillars of C.A.C.A.'s mission. They are: • to fully enjoy and defend the rights and privileges of American citizenship, • to support and obey the laws and constitution of the United States, • to cultivate the mind through exchange of knowledge, • to effect a higher character among the members, and • to observe and practice the fundamentals of brotherly and sisterly love and mutual help. When I speak of our concerns with the fate of the China House in Rancho Cucamonga, I think each of the our Cardinal Principles is relevant to this concerted effort of raising awareness of the site's significance to the Chinese-American experience in California. We are respecting the democratic process by participating in the public forum afforded to the general public. We are exercising our responsibilities as citizens of this nation in giving voice to past generations of Chinese-Americans who are silent now, but whose hardships and struggles weigh on our purpose and our legacy. We are cultivating the mind by enlightening more people on the existence of China House, which has garnered interests among the historic preservationists and concerned members of our community. I hope that by our presence here today,the commission will pause to reflect the significance of the actions that are taken in deciding the fate of this historic structure—arguably the sole remaining architectural remnant that attested to Chinese-American presence in the Greater Inland Empire. Thank you for the opportunity to speak before your commission. CACA PAGE 2 OF 4 Good evening ladies and gentlemen, My name is William Yuen and I'm speaking on behalf of the Chinese Historical Society of Southern California. The Chinese Historical Society of Southern California is an instrumental agent in promoting Chinese American history and culture in the Greater Los Angeles Metropolitan Area. Founded in 1975, our mission statement is to recognize the historical significance of the Chinese American community and to promote Chinese history and culture through academia, film and special events. Throughout the years, this organization has participated in numerous activities and projects that helped spread this mission such as fundraising dinners, monthly meetings and scholarly publications. As an organization that desires to promote history and to recognize the contributions that Chinese Americans have made to our rich and diverse Southern California community, we consider historical preservation paramount to our mission. The China House is undoubtedly a significant part of our heritage and it is the last remnant of the original Chinese community in the town of Rancho Cucamonga. Although the building is old and dilapidated, it still represents a major part of our community's history. It once housed Chinese agricultural workers that provided the energy and expertise to help create the lemon, grapefruit, grape, and wine industries in the region. If the China House is to be torn down, the very last vestige of what was once a thriving community will be gone forever. It is the only structure left representing Cucamonga's Chinatown and Chinese presence as well as the only structure of its kind known to be left in the entire Inland Empire symbolic of prior agricultural prominence. It is also an excellent example of a building with materials that were available, as all of our pioneering ancestors, across the prairies and the American West. We believe that history is more than just about reading documents but preserving physical monuments. It is crucial that this building be preserved so that a vital piece of Chinese American history can be saved.

We recognize that our request does come late in the process, but we had not heard of the pending destruction until recent news coverage. We certainly want the time to make a valid case for historical preservation of a truly unique historical asset of this region. APIAHiP is a national preservation group comprised of preservationists, historians, and advocates of historic and cultural Asian and Pacific Islander American sites. We are partners with the National Trust for Historical Preservation and National Park Service on APIA-related projects and programs. The APIA Endangered Sites Committee is newly formed to create an archival database of APIA historical sites and recommend for active consideration of noteworthy historic and cultural resources. In accordance with the latest announcement of pending removal of Historic China House and we made a road trip on December 26 to examine and record the artifact. We were astonished by the magnitude and unique architecture of the building. Our principal interest is that it is intimately connected to the history of the Chinese in Rancho Cucamonga, being the last remaining edifice representing Chinese habitation in the region. Since our recent visit to the site, members of our committee (notably Mr. Eugene Moy) have discovered the original layout drawings of the interior and also the fact that at least parts of the structure were reinforced, and such new information might be part of the reconsideration. From the standpoint of history, this building is definitely one-of-a-kind in the American West, created typically from available materials of the locality at that time, as our pioneers crossing the prairies would use, built by the inhabitants themselves, who were involved in the agrarian industries that would first make Rancho Cucamonga famous. In that sense, this is a regional artifact and rare link of substantial significance to Rancho Cucamonga's past as a regional agricultural center, and the entire China House project might enjoy a reassessment in this context. We respectfully ask that consideration. Sincerely yours, Munson A. Kwok, Ph.D. Chair, APIAHiP Endangered Sites Committee
