Motion
Discussion of 3L: Approval of Tract Map, Improvement Agreement and Improvement
Security for Tract No. 13131 (D.R. 85-17) located at the northeast corner of
Arrow Route and Vineyard Avenue submitted by Robertson Homes, a division of
Ca~wil Corporation. Staff report by Lloyd Rubbs, City Engineer.
Hardy Strosier, representin8 Robertson Homes, addressed the Council. He
stated that on one of the parcels be has been successful in obtaining the
Grant Deed; with the other parcel on Arrow Route, be was a couple of days
away from consummating that agreement. If the map was approved and signed
by the City Engineer tonight, it could save him about three weeks in
getting his project started.
William VanDyke, representing Connie Tortinn who is owner of outparcel on
Arrow Route, addressed tbe Council. He agreed with Mr. Strozier that
definite proareas had been made. He had no objection to the project being
approved with the condition of the map not being recorded until such time
as satisfactory agreement with Mrs. Totfinn bad been reached.
Councilman Buquet stated he felt uncomfortable with this suggestion.
Councilman King said be felt the initial time limitation that had been
established was basically because the developer felt he was under a time
crunch. The time limit was set in order to either condemn or not condemn. He
felt with the agreement that bad been reached, there apparently was no time
problem. Re thought the Council should go ahead and approve the Resolution.
Mayor Mikels asked what would happen if they approve the Improvement ~reement
and the Tract Map and no agreement is reached be t~een the parties. What would
that leave Arrow looking like; whaC would it do to the house?
Councilman Dabl felt that if the Tract Map was approved subject to the City
Engineer requiring that the Crant Deed be received by the City as indicated by
Council, be didn't feel they would lose anything. All they would be doing is
expediting the project for the applicant.
Councilman Buquet felt there should be some kind of deadline put on it so it
could be brough~ back in and then there would be more control on it and Council
would know where it was at.

Mr. VanDyke stated Chat Mrs. Tortinn has no desire to slo~ down Robertson
Homes and the completion of their project. He felt Council should approve
it with the condition as stated above, that there would be no significant
risk to either Mrs. Tortinn or the City. He stated that this would help
Robertson.
MOTION: Moved by Buquet, seconded by Wright that agreement be approved as
recommended by staff contingent upon agreement between the parties by next
Council meeting on March 20, 19~. Motion carried unanimously 5-0-0.

THE WILLIAH LYON COMPANY - A request to amend the Planned Community text for
the Victoria Planned Community to alloy commercial RV storage and
mini-warehouse in the Medium High (MH) Residential District. Staff report
given by Bruce Cook, Associate Planner. (0203-05 PLANNED COMMUNITY).
Mayor Mikeis opened the meeting for public bearing. Addressing Council were:
Jim Bailey, in charge of the Victoria Project for William Lyon Company. He
gave his support of the RV storage project. He said he plans to call it
the Victoria RV Station.
Councilman Buquet brought up the fact that the last time it was discussed there
had been a problem with adjacent property owner.
Mr. Bailey stated be had talked with the lady in question. The problem was
not resolved, but he was working with her on it.
Councilman Dab1 stated the primary reason for putting the storage facility in
this location was first of all it was a good location; and seconded of all who
it was to serve, being the people of Victoria. He commented how there was
nothing in the Ordinance as to who would have first chance to store their RV's
in this facility. He felt the Victoria people should be given first
opportunity.
Mr. Bailey stated that although it would be open to the public, it would be
available to the Victoria people first.
Councilman Dahl said he would like to see some kind of an agreement with the
City that gives Victoria first rights within the facility, and if more space
was needed they could kick someone out of the facility.
Mr. Bailey stated that if this site became too full, they had more land
where an additional storage facility could be opened up.
Mayor MikeIs pointed out that what they are proposing to do is only a
requirement of the plan, and that is all they are doing.
Deborah Brown, from Victoria Advisory Committee, stated that although this
facility would be available, there would still be the code enforcement
problem of making the residents park their RV's in the storage facility.
She suggested that RV parking be made available at the side of each
residence.
Councilman Buquet's only concern was tbe fact that all of the projects in the
City be consistent.
Councilman Dab1 asked what could Council do to provide a better code
enforcement procedure with reference to the RV problem?
Councilwoman Wright said she agreed with the idea of the storage facility. She
felt that Deborah Brown had a good idea of providing RV space on each site in
the future.

need to come back and discuss them. Re felt this ordinance prohibits it and
that we shouldn't do that. '

coming back over and over again. She felt Council needed to rely on the staff
and commission to identify those issues that are the same over and over again.

CITY OF ~ANCSO CUCAMOiqGA - An Amendment to the Industrial Area Specific Plan to
add Research and Development/Office use to the Raven Avenue Overlay District.
(Continued from January 15, 1986 meeting) Staff report given by Nancy Fong,
Associate Planner. (0203-05 ISP AM~DM~qT).
Mayor MikeIs opened the meeting for public bearing. Addressing Council were:
Dan Ricbards, 9333 Base Line Road repeated his position to Council from the
Previous meeting that he was against this because he sees no reason for
this to happen, Re felt there was an abundance of land and buildings
present and future for quality R & D office use in the City of Rancho
Cucamonga. He didn't feel the general scope of R & D office is a
compatible use with quality office development. Re felt that by allowing
this use within our code we would see requests for, and a gradual eroding
of the standards. Re stated that Rancho Cucamonga attracts quality office
use residents. Re felt everyone should remember what the Haven Overlay
District was meant to be.
Tim Beedie, 9650 Business Center Drive said he understood there to be ~,o
types of R & D - R & D Manufacturing and R & D Office. He said his
understandinR was that R & D Manufacturing was more intense into the
manufacturing area, whereas R & D Office would allow some research within
more of an office building. Re felt the Raven Plaza was an office type
project design, but has the type of use character that provide for the
transition away from storage or distribution.
Councilman Buquet asked Mr. Beedie the reason he felt R & D should be included
wltbin the Haven Overlay Corridor other than possibly representing interests
that happen to fall within the geographic boundaries of that Corridor?
City Council Minutes
March 5, 19~
Page 9
Mr. Beedie felt that R & D Office was a further extension of R & D itself. He
did not see it as a radical departure from the character or uses that are
allowed within the overlay district. What be sees is a further definition.
Henry Reiter felt R & D people are highly paid, they are physicists and
biologists. Re felt there has been times when too many conditions have
been put on a new tenant within the City and that Rancho Cucamonga has lost
good tenants because of this.
Jim Barton, 8409 Utica Avenue stated the overlay was created to enhance
Haven Avenue for it to be Cucamonga's major Boulevard from the south and
for it to be designed for the bigheat and best use. Re felt at this point
the way the district reads, tbis is what we now have. He felt Research and
Development required storage, shipping and receiving, which is not what the
corridor was intended to be.
Councilman Dahl stated he was in agreement with Mr. Barton. Said it was
difficult to come up with the difference between R & D Office and R & D
Manufacturing. Re said he is having some problem with the R & D Office use
along tbe Haven Avenue Corridor, but does feel there are some types of R & D
Office uses that would fit in along the corridor. He felt maybe a case-by-case
basis would be the best way to go as far as determining what would be
appropriate for Raven Avenue.
Councilman Buquet mentioned how in most of the R & D facilities he had seen had
the railroad uses directly adjacent to the properties and could be just as
disruptive, if not more so than what there would be in an office use. Said he
has serious reservations and concerns; that with the amount of planning, time
and effort that has gone into the Haven Avenue Corridor to make it a
well-planned area on that property, he didn't feel a compromise should be made
on that planning effort. Re felt that any time a CUP was placed on any area,
it would be a serious breach of the planning process. Re felt the integrity of
the design work that is going to be established in this area should be
maintained
Councilman Dahl said what he is hearing is we are lowering the standards by
allowin8 R & D Office development along the Raven Avenue Corridor. Re didn't
feel they were lowering the standards by doing this. Re felt there are some
problems along the Corridor Area. Re mentioned that fast foods were allowed
and how it could that be more attractive than an R & D facility. Be felt it
should be under a CUP and looked at on a case-by-case basis.
Councilman King concurred with Councilman Buquet. He said
defining what the R & D uses are. Re didn't feel it should
permitted use.
he has a hard time
be included as a
Councilwoman Wright does not feel that Raven Avenue should be tompromised on
quality.
Mayor MikeIs asked Mr. Bullet what are the R & D parking standards were - R & D
standards or office standards?
Mr. Bullet stated they are office standards.
Mayor Mikels said he didn't like the word "resembling". Re did not feel if
someone was going to build an office building which is used for office and has
a use that is compatible, he doesn't see what had been tompromised at all. The
problem he sees is the use of the building as opposed to the appearance of the

Councilman Dahl gave report stating he bad received information from Brad

statement was that the district can meet its responsibility as far as the
County is concerned, The original idea was that we take a look at the
annexation of all County owned properties within our Northern Sphere, which
includes all flood control properties. Since then he has discussed the issue
with several supervisors who assured him the Board of Supervisors would also be
in total agreement with this. Re asked Council to request staff to move ahead
with the annexation proceedings and cost involved in terms of liability that
the City must accept, and report back to Council for future direction of the
annexation.
Mayor MikeIs asked if by liability he meant for staff to investigate the
financial implications of the annexation?

to respond favorably before we do a lot of staff work.

proceedings to annex the county properties within the sphere of influence.

implications are.
