G2. MODIFICATION TO DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 88-32 - NELSON - An appeal of the
Planning Commission's decision to modify a condition of approval requiring the
payment of an in-lieu fee for landscaping within the 1-15 Freeway right-of-way
along the project frontage of 1.55 acres in the General Industrial Specific
Plan, located on the east side of Hyssop Drive, north of 4th Street - APN 229-
331-02. Staff report presented by Brett Horner, Assistant Planner. (0701-06
APPEAL) (1002-08 DEV REV)
Jack Lam, City Manager, stated this is not the first time this project has come
up before the City Council, that there has been similar appeals on this subject.
Councilwoman Wright asked for clarification of the map presented.
Mr. Horner clarified the map presented to Councilwoman Wright.
Mayor Stout opened the meeting for public hearing. Addressing the City Council
were:
John Nelson, 18 N. Central Avenue, Upland, asked that the Council uphold
his appeal because of the economic hardship it would place on him.
Councilwoman Wright asked if Mr. Nelson's business would benefit by the easy
access to the freeway.
City Council Minutes
July 19, 1989
Page 9
Mr. Nelson stated he did not feel that would have an affect on his
business.
Councilwoman Wright asked if Mr. Nelson's business was visible from the freeway.
Mr. Nelson stated it was.
Councilman Alexander asked if Mr. Nelson was aware of some of the expenses that
he would be responsible for before he got into this.
Mr. Nelson stated it was not brought up until Design Review, but by that
time he had already purchased the property. He stated he is already going
to have to fill in the retention basin which was going to cost a
considerable amount of money.
George Robbins did not feel staff has divided the costs of landscaping the
freeway access evenly with the property owners along the off-ramps. He
felt it was unfair for this particular owner to be burdened with all of
these costs.
There being no further public response, Mayor Stout closed the public hearing.
Councilwoman Wright asked how we are assessing the rest of the corridor.
Otto Kroutil, Deputy City Planner, stated all the properties along this area are
having to pay for this as one of their conditions, and further stated it is not
a development fee.
Councilwoman Wright asked if this could be done through a landscaping district.
James Markman, City Attorney, stated this is Caltrans property so the City could
not do this, but that the City would have to have a contract with them to do the
planting.
Councilwoman Wright asked if the retention basin issue was being considered
separately.
Russ Maguire, City Engineer, stated that the retention basin was not the issue
tonight because it was not a part of the appeal.
Mayor Stout stated that the basin was a condition of the parcel map long ago,
and that the appeal period time limitation for that particular condition has
since passed.
Councilwoman Brown stated this is similar to the undergrounding of utilities.
She felt that an Ordinance needed to be established so that a single property
owner is not responsible for paying the total cost of the landscaping fees, just
as a single owner is not responsible for the total undergrounding of utilities.
Mayor Stout stated he felt this is what the Planning Commission was doing here.
City Council Minutes.
July 19, 1989
Page 10
Councilwoman Brown stated she felt as many owners as possible should have to pay
for this, and that this should be looked into.
Mayor Stout stated that a property located near the freeway is more valuable,
and felt the Planning Commission was fair in their decision.
Councilman Alexander stated he felt the appeal should be denied.
James Markman, City Attorney, stated what he is hearing is that the Council is
asking for a motion to direct staff to bring back a Resolution sustaining the
action of the Planning Commission on the area to be subjected to the fees, but
modifying it so that the cross patch area fees would only be due upon applica-
tion for any development activity in the southern portion, except in the
retention basin.
Councilwoman Brown stated she would at least like the option checked out to
divide the cost for the landscaping.

only be due upon application for any development activity in the southern
portion, except in the retention basin. Motion tied shown as follows:

NOES:
Alexander, Wright
ABSENT: Buquet
Councilman Alexander asked if it was appropriate to continue the item until some
of the suggestions that were brought out tonight could be investigated.
Mayor Stout stated he did not feel two weeks would be enough time to get the
information that was needed, and also brought up the concern of a hardship being
placed on the developer for the delay.

I. COUNCIL BUSINESS
I1. SOLID WASTE/RECYCLING UPDATE - Council Subcommittee for Solid
Waste/Recycling recommends establishing a local environmental quality/resource
recovery committee. (Oral Report) Continued from July 5, 1989 meeting. Staff
report presented by Diane O'Neal, Administrative Analyst. (1170-09 WASTE SOL)
(1170-04 RECYCLE)
Ms. O'Neal stated that it is the intent to refocus the Citizens Advisory
Commission's responsibilities towards recycling and solid waste issues.
Councilwoman Wright stated that if the Citizens Advisory Commission agreed,
their entire focus would be on environmental issues.
Councilman Alexander stated that some of the issues the Advisory Commission had
worked on had fallen under the jurisdiction of other commissions. He thought
this would be a good time to have the Advisory Commission refocus their efforts
toward environmental issues.
Councilwoman Wright stated they are asking for a task force to work on these
types of issues, of which the membership would include the Citizens Advisory
Commission and anyone else who wanted to be included in the task force.
Mayor Stout stated he felt that such items as cable should not have to come
before the City Council, but be taken care of by a City commission.
Councilwoman Brown stated she felt this should be given to the Park & Recreation
Commission, and some other areas could be given to the other various
commissions.
Councilwoman Wright stated that members of the task force would have to commit
to a certain amount of time to work on the environmental issues.
Councilwoman Brown stated that every member of the Advisory Commission would
have first choice as to whether or not they wish to be on the Recycling Solid
Waste Committee. She added she felt the door ought to be left open to anyone
else who wanted to be on the committee, and that there should not be a number
limitation placed for the committee membership.

Mayor Stout stated that the Public Safety Commission had placed this item on the
agenda, and that they were requesting to be involved in developing a list of
criteria and topics to be included within the proposed Law Enforcement Study.
He added that he did not have a problem with this request.
Councilwoman Brown felt a subcommittee of the City Council and a subcommittee
of the Public Safety Commission should be established to work on this. She
added that once the information had been gathered, it should come back to the
City Council for further discussion.
Mayor Stout entertained a motion for the City Council subcommittee and the
subcommittee of the Public Safety Commission to begin discussion on what the
scope should be for the proposed study on law enforcement.
Councilwoman Wright stated she wanted the City Council to meet with the Sheriff
on this issue, and to discuss with him what services the City of Rancho
Cucamonga is now getting from the Sheriff's Department.
Councilwoman Brown felt that both the City Council subcommittee and the Public
Safety subcommittee should work up criteria prior to the meeting with the
Sheriff.
It was the consensus of the City Council that both subcommittees could come up
with criteria to discuss with the Sheriff, and at the same time, be working up
criteria and topics to be included within the proposed Law Enforcement Study.

J. IDENTIFICATION OF ITEMS FOR NEXT MEETING
J1. Councilwoman Wright felt a meeting should be scheduled with the Chamber
of Commerce to add to the list of other meetings that the City Council has
scheduled with outside agencies.
J2. Councilwoman Wright asked for a report to come back on the trails, and for
information on the study.
Jack Lam, City Manager, stated that the trails study was handled by the Planning
Department, but that when the RFP's went out it was going to cost more than what
the City had originally planned, so staff would be doing part of the work and
a consultant would be doing a part of it.
Councilwoman Wright stated she would like a report regarding the trail systems,
including bicycle, horse trials, etc., for the next meeting.
J3. Mayor Stout stated he would like an update on the agreement with the
County of San Bernardino regarding joint use of flood control.
