F. ADVERTISED PUBLIC HEARINGS
Fl. CONSIDERATION OF AN APPEAL FOR ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND CONDITIONAL
USE PERMIT 96-27 - TEXACO REFINING AND MARKETING. INC. - An appeal of a Planning Commission
decision to limit the hours of operation from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. for the development of a service station,
drive-thru fast food restaurant, and canopy totaling 7,672 square feet on 1.1 acres of land, and a master plan
of the surrounding 1.9 acres of land, in the Office Park District of the Terra Vista Community Plan, located at
the southwest comer of Milliken Avenue and Base Line Road - APN: 1077-672-37. Staff report presented by
Tom Grahn, Associate Planner.
Councilmember Curatalo inquired if the appeal is only for the hours of operation.
Tom Grahn, Associate Planner, stated that was correct.
Councilmember Williams asked if the hours of operation are for all operations are the same.
Brad Buller, City Planner, stated yes that they are being recommended to be from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
Councilmember Williams stated she is concerned about the clean-up portion and that it might need to be done
after 10:00 p.m.
Councilmember Gutierrez stated he is interested in hearing what the residents have to say before he makes
a decision.
Mayor Alexander opened the meeting for public hearing. Addressing the City Council were:
Rich Tate of Texaco stated Texaco wishes to be a good neighbor to Term Vista. He wanted to submit
for the record 7 sites that have developed that are within 500' of residential houses. He stated this
would not be franchised out being that it would be owned and operated by Texaco. He stated all of
their businesses in the past have had 24-hour operations. He added they are requesting this be
allowed to operate between 5:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m., and would like for the Council to consider this.
He stated it was a concern that the lights do not glare into the residential areas and that they would
like take measures to dim them. He introduced Bob Conn with Robert John Kane Associates,
Acoustical Engineers.
Mr. Conn talked about the noise situation and added they would limit fuel deliveries. He stated the
City could monitor the noise through its noise ordinance if they wanted to.
Councilmember Curatalo asked if the deliveries could be limited to 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and would this hurt
their business.
Texaco representatives responded they would have to check into this, but if it was a condition, they
would go along with it.
Randy, Willow Park Homeowner's Association, felt the noise situation would not be acceptable. They
asked for the Council to look at this and felt the project was too close to the residences.
Mae Hards of Willow Park, asked why the Council felt this would be good to have this project at this
location. She pointed out the fact there were other service stations in the neighborhood. She felt the
Planning Commission was uncaring and did not feel this should be allowed in the City. She felt the
neighborhoods should be kept separate from businesses.

Larry Tyler, President Willow Park Homeowner's Association, stated he did not think the property
around this would develop if this project is allowed to be built. He stated he was told when he bought
his home this would be a business center or a medical building. He added they would have to smell
gas fumes and hear all of the noise from Taco Bell if this is approved.
Greg Hoxworth, Lewis Homes, stated they continue to want to build a quality community which
includes other development opportunities. He stated they support the compromise of the hours
Texaco is suggesting. He added they are staying within the zoning requirements and felt this was
the best use for this location. He felt Texaco's compromise was a good one.
Marty Aloprigada, 7313 Belpan Place, felt people would be littering on this property. He stated he
would not be responsible for what happens in Texaco, and that there is no one to protect him.
Jeanette Smale, Willow Park, stated what drew her to Rancho Cucamonga is Lewis Homes. She
stated this would be the first commercial business that is this close to a residential area that Lewis
Homes has built. She stated she did not agree with Texaco working for longer hours than the 6:00
a.m. to 10:00 p.m. that was suggested by the Planning Commission.
Hilda Phillips, Willow Park, stated they are very proud of the community. She felt Lewis Homes is
going against their development by supporting this project. She felt this was too close to the
residences and that the people do not need it or want it. She asked the Council not to go forward with
this project.
Rick Tate, Texaco, stated they have not agreed to the 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. condition that was
imposed on them by the Planning Commission. He stated the property is zoned for a gas station.
He also added that the garbage will be picked up every day or two. He mentioned the site will be
completely lit and with security cameras and the cashier will be visible from the street. He stated the
safes will be locked and are electronic. He pointed out that Texaco would be 230' from the
residences.
Larry Tyler stated they were not advised there would be a gas station at this location and felt there
were numerous gas stations already in the City. He asked that the Council reconsider this project.
There being no further response, the public hearing was closed.
Brad Buller, City Planner, stated the Planning Commission did limit truck delivery between 7:00 a.m. and 10:00
p.m. He stated other clean-up did not have a time restriction on it.
Councilmember Curatalo stated he could not approve a 24-hour operation, but suggested allowing them to
open at 5:00 a.m. until 12:00 a.m. on a trial basis with conditions that the applicant would submit to staff every
six months a survey of the neighbors how things were going. He felt 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. for trucks
deliveries was adequate and that the whole operation be completely shut down by 12:00 midnight.
Councilmember Biane stated a study was done, and this project was a need of the community, and that he
would like for the neighbors to give this a chance with the conditions as stated by Councilmember Curatalo.
He felt Texaco could be a good neighbor to the residents.
Councilmember Williams felt the people have very valid concerns. She stated she is very concerned about
this being near residential. She mentioned she lives near a 7/11 and Circle K which did impact her.
She stated she could not endorse this, but would, at best, go along with the 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. hours of
operation as approved by the Planning Commission. She felt there was a better use for this property.

Councilmember Gutierrez stated he felt the owner has the right to get an approved use for his property. He
stated he is not opposed to this corner being developed. He felt the hours should start at 5:00 a.m. for the
commuters who want to stop and get a cup of coffee or whatever, and then close at midnight with restrictions.
He felt 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. for deliveries would be better. He felt this would be good for the community
and that this would not affect the property values.
Mayor Alexander stated the Council is here to listen about the appeal dealing with the hours of operation. He
stated he is in agreement with the Planning Commission and the hours of operation they have set. He felt the
profile should be lower and the landscaping more mature. He felt this project should be buffered from the
residents. He stated the only reason he could extend the hours of operation is if the residents wanted this,
which he indicated they do not. He stated he is not opposed to the project and is in favor of the Resolution
presented.
MOTION: Moved by Curatalo to adopt the Resolution so that the hours are modified as stated above.
Jim Markman, City Attorney, stated the title of the Resolution would be to deny the appeal of the Planning
Commission decision, and modifying certain conditions for the development of the service station. He stated
paragraph 5 of the Resolution would be modified to state "The City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga
hereby modifies environmental mitigation measure number 9 opposed by the Planning Commission by
modifying the hours of operation stated therein to 5:00 a.m. to 12:00 midnight." He stated they would add a
sentence to paragraph 5 indicating "The Council hereby imposes additional conditions to the effect that all
deliveries, cleaning and other operational activities on the site be limited to the hours of 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
and that the operator on a six month basis survey the neighborhood with respect to any comments or
complaints involving the operation and submit same to the City Planner."
Brad Buller, City Planner, felt they should add with respect to the delivery vehicles that "all exterior
maintenance and deliveries, including fuel delivery, to the subject site, shall only occur during 9:00 a.m. to 6:00
p.m." He stated with respect to the survey he felt the form and method should be approved by the City
Planner and the City Planner shall consider the results of the survey and determine compliance with the
project's conditions of approval and address any issues that warrant enforcement or modification to the
conditions of approval.
Councilmember Gutierrez felt there should be some kind of scientific way of monitoring the noise for the
project. He asked if there was a wall around the project.
Brad Buller, City Planner, stated no. He stated they have done studies of the location and that they meet the
sound requirements.
Motion was seconded by Biane.
Mayor Alexander stated he agrees with the Planning Commission and that the hours of operation need to stay
as is and that he did not agree with the motion.
Motion carried 3-2 (Alexander and Williams voted no).
