CONSIDERATION OF AN ORDINANCE REPEALING CERTAIN RESIDENTIAL FIRE SPRINKLER REQUIREMENTS Staff report presented by Chief Dennis Michael, Fire District.

He continued to express how important he felt sprinklers were. Councilmember Curatalo stated he would like to see a chart on time of combustion. Ralph Crane, Deputy Fire Marshal, displayed a chart entitled "Time vs. Products of Combustion" and explained it. He also talked about a newspaper article and a person dying of smoke inhalation. Councilmember Curatalo clarified if it would take about nine minutes before the Fire Department could put water on a burning structure. Ralph Crane, Deputy Fire Marshal, stated yes. Councilmember Curatalo pointed out that sprinklers would help this time delay. Ralph Crane, Deputy Fire Marshal, agreed with him. John Thomas, Sr. Plans Examiner/Fire, presented information on the cost for residential fire sprinklers from various contractors. City Council Minutes August 2, 1995 Page 6 Councilmember Curatalo asked for Chief Michael's recommendation and opinion of this matter. Chief Michael, Fire District, felt the elimination the Ordinance should not occur. He suggested the Ordinance be looked at by staff, BIA and contractors to come up with something that would be agreeable to everyone instead of repealing the Ordinance. He did not feel it was cost effective for a builder to wait until there is a homeowner to decide if they want sprinklers installed or not, that it should be done during the construction of the home. He stated he would like for staff to work with everyone to get an Ordinance agreeable to all agencies. Councilmember Curatalo asked if he felt the Ordinance should be repealed. Chief Michael, Fire District, stated no. Mayor Alexander opened the meeting for public hearing. Addressing the City Council were: Frank Williams, BIA, stated he respected the Fire Chief and did not want to get into a debate about this issue. He felt the mandatory requirement should be repealed, but to also come up with incentives for the homeowner to put the residential fire sprinklers in their homes. He continued by showing a video of the City of Rialto's Council meeting when they repealed their Residential Fire Sprinkler Ordinance. Councilmember Gutierrez asked how many degrees a house would have to be to set off the sprinklers. Mayor Alexander stated about 130 degrees. John Lyons, 11984 Dorset, stated he is against repealing the Ordinance. He told about a fatal incident that had occurred many years ago and how residential fire sprinklers would have helped. John Roberts, San Bernardino County Fire Marshal, commented on how the fire services staff is here to protect the residents of the City, and that he did not feel the Ordinance should be repealed. Bryan Burke of Central Sprinkler presented information on why he felt residential fire sprinklers were good and that he did not agree with the BIA. Jane Bradshaw, 6949 Valinda, stated she did not feel the video or the information Mr. Williams presented was very good. She did not feel the Ordinance should be repealed. William Eisley, 8448 Jennet, stated he is proud of the City and likes living here. He stated he did not agree with the BIA and hoped that the Council would not repeal the Ordinance. He did not think the cost was that significant to add to the cost of a home. Randy Sampias, fire sprinkler business, asked the Council what would it be gaining to take away the Ordinance. He felt it was to protect the people and did not think the Ordinance should be repealed. Jim Frost, City Treasurer, gave background on what the City has done to make the City a safer place. He stated he supported the Residential Fire Sprinkler Ordinance. Mike Robbins, 9920 19th Street, asked how much it would cost when there is a fire and emergency vehicles have to respond to the scene. Chief Michael, Fire District, stated a normal fire response would involve 5 pieces of equipment, plus personnel. He stated a residential fire sprinkler system would cost a lot less than having firefighters respond to a fire. There being no further response, the public hearing was closed. City Council Minutes August 2, 1995 Page 7 Councilmember Curatalo stated he would not disagree with the Chief and felt he would be compromising safety of the residents if the Ordinance was repealed. Councilmember Gutierrez stated he agrees with many of the points brought up tonight and felt residential fire sprinklers could prevent deaths. He stated he felt cheated that his house does not have sprinklers, but that he does have a smoke detector. He stated he questions the value of residential fire sprinklers. He did think they should be mandatory in commercial buildings. He added he is not against public safety just because he is against residential fire sprinklers. He felt the cost, no matter how small, does make a difference to a home buyer. He felt the decision should be left to the home buyer and not to the City Council as to whether or not to install residential fire sprinklers. Councilmember Williams stated she has not changed her mind on this issue. She stated she does not think the Ordinance should have ever been approved. She felt the efforts should go towards the State to change the codes. She stated any builder can put in residential fire sprinklers and should offer this to the residents if they want this option. Councilmember Biane thanked the BIA for their information. He asked if the Fire Chief has residential fire sprinklers in his home. Chief Michael, Fire District, stated no. Councilmember Curatalo asked if he could get residential fire sprinklers in his home if he bought again, would he. Chief Michael, Fire District, stated yes. Mayor Alexander asked if the level of service would remain the same if the Residential Fire Sprinkler Ordinance is repealed. Chief Michael, Fire District, stated he felt this would have a negative impact on fire services. Mayor Alexander asked if the City has been overwhelmed with calls to repeal this Ordinance. Jack Lam, City Manager, stated no. Mayor Alexander felt it was odd that the City Council was considering this Ordinance when there were basically two people asking that this be repealed. He did not think the fire personnel should be stretched any thinner. He stated he does not understand how the BIA can support a measure to retrofit, but would not support keeping this Ordinance. Debra J. Adams, City Clerk, read the title of Ordinance No. 434-A. ORDINANCE NO. 434-A (first reading) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING SECTION 15.12.168 OF CHAPTER 15.12 OF TITLE 15 OF THE RANCHO CUCAMONGA MUNICIPAL CODE BY REPEALING GROOP R, DIVISION $ RESIDENTIAL FIRE SPRINKLER REQUIREMENTS, AND MAKING OTHER FIRE SPRINKLER RELATED MODIFICATIONS THERETO MOTION: Moved by Biane, Seconded by Gutierrez to waive full reading and set second reading of Ordinance No. 434-A for:the August 16, 1995 meeting.

CONSIDERATION OF AMENDMENT TO UNIFORM SIGN PROGRAM' NO. 35 - CAPRI PROPERTIES - Appeal of the Planning Commission's denial of a request to amend the Uniform Sign Program to allow a fourth sign color for minor tenants within an existing shopping center (Country Village), located at the northeast corner of Base Line Road and Carnelian Street - APN: 202-381-24 through 26, 28, through 33, 35, and 36. Staff report presented by Scott Murphy, Associate Planner. The City Council asked various questions of staff about the center and the Sign Ordinance. Mayor Alexander asked if this is approved, where will the number of colors end. Mayor Alexander opened the meeting for public hearing. Addressing the City Council were: Susan Lemarque, management company for the center, stated they consider Subway a major tenant. She hoped the Council would help this business succeed. Charles Benedict, 8586 Laurel, Fontana, stated his position about the sign colors and how important they felt it was for the success of their building. They felt that people identified with the colors they normally have on their signs. He stated he has put the money into the sign already and paid appeal fees to get this change approved for the colors of his sign. Mayor Alexander asked if he felt they would experience a reduction in business if they don't get the colors they want. Councilmember Gutierrez stated he felt visibility and being able to identify something by the sign is important. He felt the City was possibly not responding to help some of these types of problems in the community. He felt flexibility was in order here. Larry McNiel, Planning Commission, stated this sign is not a big problem, but that the Ordinance was developed many yeas ago so that the City does not turn into a "Holt Boulevard". He stated there are two other Subways in the City that have signs that conform to the sign code and that they are successful. He stated he did not want Rancho Cucamonga to turn into something that other communities have turned into where there is no control. There being no further response, the public hearing was closed. Councilmember Curatalo stated he agreed that Subway is a major operation and that they should be able to use their regular sign. He agreed with the appellant. James Markman, City Attorney, stated Subway isnot a major tenant. Councilmember Curatalo stated he felt Subway was a national operation and supported their appeal and that they should be able to use their regular sign. Councilmember Biane stated he agreed with Larry McNiel and felt three colors was enough. City Council Minutes August 2, 1995 Page 9 Councilmember Williams felt the City should stick with their guns and not go against the sign ordinance. Councilmember GulJerrez stated he felt the Subway owner's livelihood is more important than the color of the sign. He stated he does not understand the City's attitude toward businesses. Mayor Alexander stated if our sign ordinance needs to be modified then the City should take a long hard look at it. He added he would stand behind the Planning Commission's decision. MOTION: Moved by Curatalo, seconded by Gutierrez to uphold the applicant's appeal and stick with the original colors. Motion failed 2-3 (Williams, Alexander and Biane voted no). MOTION: Moved by Alexander, seconded by Williams to uphold the Planning Commission's decision. Motion carried 3-2 (Curatalo and Gutierrez voted no). H. CITY MANAGER'S STAFF REPORTS H1. CONSIDERATION OF Wohl/RANCHO PARTNERS - A request to consider initiation of text changes to add Commercial uses and standards for Commercial uses, in conjunction with Industrial Area Specific Plan Amendment 95-02, for parcels located on the south side of Foothill Boulevard between Spruce and Elm Avenues in Subarea 7. Staff report presented by Miki BraE, Associate Planner. Councilmember Gutierrez asked when the Land Use/Market Study would be completed. Brad Buller, City Planner, stated by the end of the year or in October or so. Councilmember Gutierrez stated he thought projects were not to be held up because of the Market Study. Brad Buller, City Planner, stated the City's study is not holding up this application. Jack Lam, City Manager, stated the issue is "does the Council want to initiate the text change" because the Planning Commission felt the Council should consider this instead of them. Councilmember Williams asked who would have to pay to get this through. Brad Buller, City Planner, stated it is a fee they would pay if this action is approved. Councilmember Williams stated she wants to make sure the City is compensated for this. Brad Buffer, City Planner, stated the applicant is asking to proceed with the project and will pay a fee to do this. Councilmember Biane asked Planning Commissioner John Melcher why he wanted to delay this project until the City's Market Study is complete. He said this is contradictory to what was previously told to the Council. John Melcher, Planning Commission, stated he does not think the City should do things "piecemeal". He commented that what the City does today will stick for many years to come. He stated he does not think the City should proceed with this project until the Market Study is complete. Councilmember Gutierrez stated when this study was approved he was told it would not hold up projects. John Melcher, Planning Commission, stated he did not understand why it was so wrong to hold up on a project for awhile until the study is complete. City Council Minutes August 2, 1995 Page 10 Councilmember Gutierrez stated because the City needs new business and needs a financial base. Councilmember Curatalo stated he is getting "vibes" that there are preconceived notions as far as not expanding our commercial Zones at this time. He asked if this is the case, why are we allowing the applicant to proceed with his application. Brad Buller, City Planner, stated the applicant has every right to submit this project application under the current Development Code. He stated once he has a complete application he has two options. One is to come in and simply ask for Community Commercial under the Foothill Specific Plan, take a land use zoning category and simply move it onto his property. He added staff suggested that administratively, the easiest way, if that was to be a commercial piece of property, it would make better sense to amend the Industrial Area Specific Plan text to keep it within the same context of everything else that is reviewed in that area south of Foothill. He stated rather than coming in with a zone change, Mr. Wohl came in with a text change. He stated the code differentiates the two. Mayor Alexander opened the meeting for public comment. Addressing the City Council were: Greg Wohl, Wohl Investment Company, stated he is surprised about the problems they are having. He stated they want to go ahead with their application. Councilmember Gutierrez stated he felt it was his job to give a fair handshake to people that approach him. He stated he felt every business should be treated fairly and welcomed into the City. He stated he did not want development to stop because of the Study. Councilmember Williams asked if they were on a time table. Mr. Wohl stated yes. He stated they have tenants they might lose if they can't go ahead. Councilmember Williams stated she felt they are being presumptuous in thinking they will get the text change by going ahead with getting tenants. She stated she wanted it on the record that they are in escrow with some of their tenants. She stated she felt Mr. Wohl would want to know what the Study says to see who should be going into their center. She felt Mr. Wohl was pushing the City a little bit. Mayor Alexander stated he wanted to make sure Mr. Wohl did not think the Council was giving them an endorsement either for or against their project by going along with the text change idea. Councilmember Curatalo stated he would accept staff's recommendation of the text change. Wendy Vallette, 11116 Amarillo, stated she was not sure what was being discussed. She stated what she heard Councilmember Gutierrez saying was that the General Plan is up for grabs to rezone to whoever wants to come in. Councilmember Biane stated he would answer that because he feels as strongly as Councilmember Gutierrez does. He stated it was a commitment to let the application be heard in front of the Planning Commission. He stated the Planning Commission could still say no to the project, but to go ahead and hear what the developer has to say. Wendy Vallette stated she did not have a problem with that, but that she has a lot of concerns with exceptions that are being made as she previouslY heard tonight. She hoped that the Council would not approve spot zoning when it is looking at amending the General Plan. City Council Minutes August 2, 1995 Page 11 Andrew Hall, Manager of the Heritage Best Western Inn, located behind the proposed project of Mr. Wohl, stated he realizes that this is not an approval of the project, but did think Mr. Wohl was putting the cart before the horse. He stated he wished that Mr. Wohl had contacted him about the kind of business he has at the hotel. He stated he has had 23,000 people in the hotel since January 1995. He felt a restaurant would be a lot more beneficial there. There being no further response, the public comment section was closed. MOTION: Moved by Curatalo, seconded by Gutierrez to accept the applicant's request to initiate the text amendment application. Motion carried unanimously, 5-0. Mayor Alexander stated this is not an endorsement to approve the project. I. COUNCIL BUSINESS No items were submitted. J. IDENTIFICATION OF ITEMS FOR NEXT MEETING J1. Councilmember Gutierrez asked for a staff report on public vs. private equestrian trails.. James Markman, City Attorney, stated the City has litigation on this matter and felt it should be discussed in Executive Session. Councilmember Gutierrez stated there are residents that would like more information on this matter. James Markman, City Attorney, stated staff could go ahead and prepare a report. K. COMMUNICATIONS FROM THE PUBLIC KI~ REQUEST BY VICTOR MUNI7 TO ADDRESS THE COUNCIL ON "CABLE COMMUNICATION SERVICES" Mr. Muniz stated Marks is not a licensed contractor by the State License Board. He stated he did not think Marks had adequate quality control. He felt an audit should take place of Marks Cablevision's work for quality assurance. He continued to complain about the job Marks has done at his home without his permission. He stated he would be sending Marks a letter suing them naming the City of Rancho Cucamonga on the complaint. He stated he is asking the City to stop Marks from doing business in the City. City Council Minutes August 2, 1995 Page 12 L. ADJOURNMENT MOTION: Moved by Biane, seconded by Curatalo to adjourn.
