NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby found, determined, and resolved by the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows: 1. The City Council 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 the City Council during the above- referenced public hearing on June 20, 2018, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, the City Council hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The Application applies to the approximately 174-acre Victoria Gardens site ("Victoria Gardens"). The Application's primary provisions apply to a 5.33-acre parcel within Victoria Gardens that was previously approved for a 95-unit condominium development that is mostly vacant with minimal infrastructure improvements located generally north of the Victoria Gardens Cultural Resolution No. 18-045 - Page 1 of 5 CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 18-045 VICTORIA GARDENS MASTER PLAN AMENDMENT DRC2017-00971 — CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA June 20, 2018 Page 2 Center on the north-east corner or Arbor Drive and Cultural Center Drive within the Victoria Gardens Mall ("Subject Property"). b. Development of Victoria Gardens and the Subject Property is governed by the Victoria Gardens Master Plan, the Victoria Arbors Master Plan, the Victoria Community Plan, the City's General Plan, and the Development Agreement between the City and Owner's predecessor in interest. c. The property to the north of the Subject Property is designated Mixed Use, and is partially developed with a winery and single-family residential development. The property to the west of the Subject Property is designated Mixed Use, and is developed with multi-family residential units. The Bass Pro Shop and the 1-15 Freeway lie immediately to the east of the Subject Property with the land further east designated Low-Medium Residential and Medium Residential within the Etiwanda Specific Plan, and Regional Related Commercial. The Main Street and Route 66 Areas of the Victoria Gardens Mall are directly south of the Subject Property, and Foothill Boulevard lies further to the south, beyond which the land is developed with commercial uses and is designated Regional Related Office/Commercial. d. On February 20, 2002 and in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), the City Certified Environmental Impact Report SCH No. 2001031028 (EIR), which analyzed the potential environmental impacts of the Victoria Gardens Master Plan and related approvals. As the Lead Agency, the City considered the information in the EIR before approving the Victoria Gardens Master Plan. At that time, the City Council also adopted a Statement of Facts and Findings and Overriding Considerations for the Victoria Gardens Master Plan. The Statement of Overriding Considerations found that the economic, social, or other benefits of the Victoria Gardens Master Plan outweighed the significant and unavoidable impacts identified in the EIR. e. Also in 2002, the City entered into Development Agreement 01-02 with Victoria Gardens-C, LLC for the Victoria Gardens Regional Center. The Development Agreement has since been amended three times by mutual agreement of the parties. Rancho Mall, LLC and Rancho Mall NE, LLC are transferees of portions of Victoria Gardens-C, LLC's interest in Victoria Gardens. f. On May 6, 2009 and in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City certified Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Report SCH No. 2001031028 (SEIR), which analyzed the potential environmental impacts of proposed amendments to the Victoria Gardens Master Plan and related amendments to the General Plan, Victoria Community Plan, and Victoria Arbors Master Plan and the third amendment to the Development Agreement to allow the development of residential uses in the Main Street Area, increase the average height in the Main Street Area to 120 feet, with a maximum of 160 feet, amend the building setback requirements for the Main Street Area, and clarify permitted and conditionally permitted uses within Victoria Gardens. At that time, the City Council also adopted a Statement of Facts and Findings and Overriding Considerations for the project as the economic, social, or other benefits outweighed the significant and unavoidable impacts identified in the SEIR. g. Concurrent with this Application, the Applicants also applied for General Plan Amendment DRC2017-00969, Development Agreement Amendment DRC2017-00970, and Resolution No. 18-045 - Page 2 of 5 CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 18-045 VICTORIA GARDENS MASTER PLAN AMENDMENT DRC2017-00971 — CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA June 20, 2018 Page 3 Tentative Parcel Map TPM 19963. The purpose of these other applications is to modify Table LU-2 of the General Plan (Victoria GardensNictoria Arbors Land Use Mix) to reduce the maximum number of residential units in the Victoria Gardens Master Plan's Residential Area by 95 units and to increase the maximum number of residential units in the Main Street Area by 95 units; incorporate the General Plan Amendment and VGMP Amendment into the Development Agreement and facilitate the timing and development of the public safety facility on the Subject Property; and to subdivide the Subject Property lot into 2 parcels, with one parcel consisting of approximately 1 acre for a future public safety facility and the other parcel of approximately 4.33 acres for a future parking lot and/or parking structure. Collectively, these approvals are referred to herein as the "Project." h. As shown in the Exhibit 1, the Application proposes to amend the Victoria Gardens Master Plan to rezone the Subject Property from Residential to Civic/Parking Area, modify various language in the VGMP to allow the future development of a public parking lot/structure and police substation on the Subject Property; and to reallocate 95 dwelling units from the Subject Propertyto the Main Street Area from the Residential Area. 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to the City Council during the above-referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in Paragraphs 1 and 2 above, the City Council hereby finds and concludes as follows: a. The Application is consistent with the objectives, policies, and land uses specified in the General Plan and any applicable Specific Plans. The proposed Victoria Gardens Master Plan Amendment enables the continued construction of the Project within Victoria Gardens subject to the approval of the amendments to the General Plan, Development Agreement Amendment, and TPM (General Plan Amendment DRC2017-00969, Development Agreement Amendment DRC2017-00970, and Tentative Parcel Map TPM19963, respectively). b. The Application meets the requirements set forth in the Development Code. The proposed Victoria Gardens Master Plan Amendment enables the continued construction of the Project within Victoria Gardens through the comprehensive planning document that created a compatible blend of uses. 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 City Council finds that an addendum to the EIR and SEIR is required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in connection with the review and approval of the Application based upon the following findings and determinations: a. Under CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, when an EIR has been previously certified for a project, a lead agency must prepare a subsequent EIR if (1) substantial changes are proposed to the project that will require major revision of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; (2) substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or (3) new information of substantial importance, which was not known Resolution No. 18-045 - Page 3 of 5 CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION NO. 18-045 VICTORIA GARDENS MASTER PLAN AMENDMENT DRC2017-00971 — CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA June 20, 2018 Page 4 and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete or the Negative Declaration was adopted. b. Under CEQA Guidelines Section 15164, the City may prepare an addendum to an EIR in lieu of a subsequent EIR if the changes to the project or the circumstances under which the project would be undertaken don't meet the conditions described in Section 15162 that require preparation of a subsequent EIR to make the EIR adequately apply to the proposed project. c. Based on the evaluation of potential environmental impacts of the Project an addendum was prepared. The Addendum analyzed the Project against the original project, as approved in 2002 and 2009 and reviewed under the EIR and SEIR, and determined that because the Project shifted uses anticipated within the Mall and that were previously identified and approved as part of the Victoria Gardens Master Plan, the impacts generated by the Project created no new impacts and were no more significant than the original project. Additionally, key topics such as Noise, Traffic and Circulation and Cultural Impacts were further analyzed to ensure that no new impacts were generated as a result of recirculating traffic within Victoria Gardens due to the development of parking on the Subject Property. d. Based on the totality of the administrative record, the City Council finds in connection with the Application, that substantial changes to the original project or the circumstances surrounding the original project have not occurred which would create new or more severe impacts than those evaluated in the previously certified EIR and SEIR, that no new information has come to light that was known or could have been known at the time the EIR and SIER were adopted, and that the addendum to the EIR and SEIR complies with the requirements of CEQA. The City Council hereby adopts the addendum and finds that it was prepared in compliance with CEQA. The purpose of the Application is to rezone the Subject Parcel to Civic/Parking Area and to modify various language in the VGMP to allow the future development of a public parking lot/structure and police substation on the parcel; and to reallocate 95 dwelling units from this parcel to the Main Street Area. e. The City Council further finds that the addendum to the EIR and SEIR is in compliance with CEQA as the Project will not have more significant effects than discussed in the previously certified EIR and SEIR for the original project, not have more severe effects than previously analyzed for the original project, and that additional or different mitigation measures are not required to reduce the impacts of the proposed project to a level of less than significant. 5. On the basis of the foregoing and the totality of the administrative record before it, the City Council adopts the Addendum to the EIR and SEIR and approves Victoria Gardens Master Plan Amendment DRC2017-00971 as shown in Exhibit 1. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.

These open areas have a variety of characters, ranging rL `, ' ``� � ' .from the more formal hardscape of the Town Square, to informal "pocket "-„-_ A =` .- '' parks". As pedestrians explore the Main Street district,this series of parks and ''" squares provide memorable spaces along the streets, giving definition and -- character,places to pause,rest and meet,within the environment olVictoria Gardens. Fig.2-2 I :Pedestrian oriented streets Although the Main Street district of Victoria Gardens accommodates the automobile, the streets and sidewalks are primarily oriented toward the pedestrian. Traffic calming measures are utilized to ensure that vehicles do not drive too fast.The streets have parallel parking,buffering the pedestrians from the traffic. Pedestrian crosswalks provide many safe opportunities for people to explore both sides of the streets. The sidewalks are the key element of the pedestrian experience of Victoria �' Gardens. They are wide enough to allow benches, street trees and outdoor ' _ 44,, F __ seating, yet narrow enough to provide an intimate pedestrian experience. Awnings, blade signs, lighting and planting enliven the sidewalks. The " ' , ',. buildings,while holding the definition of the street,provide a variety of setbacks at entries,arcades and shade structures creating an inviting informal pedestrian li - experience. - - Buildings along the street define the grid system of Victoria Gardens. No single architectural style is mandated for the Main Street district. It is intended that there is diversity in the architectural character of the buildings of Victoria , :,•„ • Gardens, as if the downtown had been built and evolved over time, The fig.2-22:Generous active sidewalks architectural character of the downtown also responds to climatic conditions.

Vertically, there are accent elements and prominent roof forms at key locations and a variety of one and two level ,.l- _ , i r buildings.The massing of the buildings of downtown provide accents along -i f . • r the grid, aiding in orientation and providing architectural character to the ' , j " „ public spaces.The massing and roof forms also provide a recognizable image Fig.2-25:Diversity in massing and of the downtown from the distance. Motorists along Interstate 15 will instantly architectural character recognize both the grid system and the prominent massing accents of Victoria Gardens,and perceive that this is a singular place with a distinctive character. The scale of the downtown is also articulated along the horizontal plane. Like a downtown that grew over time, Victoria Gardens has both small and large '' building footprints. This variety of scales gives small shops an intimate scale l i`/ and allows major tenants to project a more prominent presence. The ,, , combination of scales is brought together as a harmonious medley of large and r '',40. `' small, intimate and prominent, to produce a pedestrian experience that "� combines the order and hierarchy of the grid with the surprise and excitement of variety. s Hit: aa; Iasi 91 Fig.2-26:A variety in footprint and massing Victoria Gardens Regional Center. Rancho Cucamonga 0 Master Plan 28 Muter Plan ch.2 2.2b Residential Area Comfortable, convenient living in a vibrant atmosphere awaits residents of the apartment village component of the Victoria Gardens project. This pedestrian-friendly community is nestled next to the new and exciting Victoria Gardens Regional Center in Rancho Cucamonga,with a full array ofshopping, dining,community,entertainment and night-life attractions. The main entrance to the town center opens onto the tree-lined streets that form the central promenade,from which no garages or common parking areas will be visible. The living units are situated within easy walking distance of Main Street shopping, while Merlot Street will form a buffer between the dwellings and the retail parking areas. Many living areas are within a couple hundred feet of retail shops. Numerous courtyard entries and well-landscaped pathways leading to City Walk will invite residents to the energetic world of the town center. Renters can relax by the luxurious pool or one of several spas,enjoy the deluxe recreation and fitness center or simply take pleasure from the easy life-style of their modern,highly convenient and comfortable home. Intimate greenbelts and peaceful walking gardens will offer a refreshing alternative to the busy world just outside. A wide range of unique and well-designed floor plans,with generous parking, caters to today's active life-styles. From two and three bedroom townhouses to the one-bedroom apartments located north of the central promenade,renters will find their personal taste and style reflected in quality neighborhoods. 2.2c Route 66 Area and Eastern Areas These areas,which are on the south side and the east side of Victoria Gardens, are commercial and office areas that are linked to the Main Street Area and are more automobile-oriented than the Main StreetArea. 2.2d Civic/Parking Area This area,which is on the north side and east of the Residential Area,contains public parking and a public safety facility.

THE HISTORIC WESTERN TOWN The planning of Victoria Gardens is based upon historical precedents of town planning. The western town was based upon a street grid sstem, typically laid out by land surveyors,along the ordinal points of the cpass.This was simple for the surveyors,and it allowed easy orientation to residents and visitors alike. The city of Los Angeles originally was laid out in this manner. immilil - ..�'►' ` v .�,., �- �*., _.,gra *s p �� 4 \ . . .' ,- r 1"pp - ;,--,74,-- ,-- 1lc asN. -, s "-'ter..••••.,, 4 e /.

These phenomena of nature gave the grid, and the cities that grew from them, theircharacter. Often in the historic drawings and photographs of the western town,the most prominent buildings were displayed around the town plan,as seen in fig. 2- 27. The character of the town was being described as a collection of interesting buildings that had been developed within the grid of streets. Drawings were representations of the town and were used to sell the town to people far away; the plans served as sales posters to those who might choose to migrate and settle in the town. Victoria Gardens,although a new development,seeks to follow the traditions of an historic western town.

This creek created a"ribbon of green"and provided water for the early settlers to farm the arid valley.A small town, laid out on a grid system by surveyors, began at the widest point of the creek, centered on a town square.The early settlers planted trees along the Creek Road as a windbreak and to provide shade as they drove their wagons from the fields into the town. The town's first buildings served the commercial needs of the area's farmers, and were constructed of thick walls with arcades and trellises that provided shade. Some of these original buildings that were built near the creek remain today on the Town Square. In the late 1800 to 1930s the dirt road that farmers had used to transport their goods east and west became US Route 66,connecting Chicago to Los Angeles. This road brought visitors and new vitality to the downtown, which grew, adding restaurants and shops to serve the travelers. A diner and service station at the intersection of Route 6G and Day Creek became a landmark and signaled the turn into Victoria Gardens.

Victoria Gardens remains a colorful garden in the semiarid environment to this day. 2.3b Parcelization,Scale and Character Had Victoria Gardens been developed in the early part of the century and been developed over several decades, today it would most likely have a very fine grain of development. Individual parcels of twenty-five, fifty or one hundred foot widths would have been sold to individuals to develop as they wished. This would have resulted in clusters of individual buildings, each with its own identity.This development of small parcels contributes greatly to the character and individuality of historical downtowns. Conversely, many developments of the late twentieth century have resulted from one owner accumulating large land holdings and building sizable buildings complexes with similar architectural style and character.The parcels for each building have usually been large and the character of buildings has often lacked diversity of scale and individual design. We propose that Victoria Gardens, while not as finely grained as an historic downtown, maintains some of the richness and variety that resulted from separate ownership of small parcels. Buildings are broken down into smaller segments,each with their own character. The grain of development at Victoria Gardens emulates the variety of a turn-of-the-century downtown while addressing the economies of scale of modern-day development.

The role of the Spanish and their missionary systems blessed with Southern California's temperate climate led to the founding of the mission garden, the adobe ranch and the pueblo. These successions ultimately evolved into a remarkable pastoral life-style that has endured and endeared in the hearts and minds of Californians for generations.

California's garden history was also affected by the subsequent arrival of American immigrants,particularly in the late nineteenth century,where the plowed field and bedding gardens initially replaced much of the older Spanish and Mexican garden architecture. Bythe early twentieth century,however,Californians sought out Southern European garden traditions in search of more appropriate models for Californialiving. By the late nineteenth century rapid advances in train travel opened routes that connected urban centers as well as rural sites. Land division £orproperry ownership grew logically from geometric plotting of agricultural crop fields into rectilinear house construction and town planning.Patio gardens containing apples,pears,olives,figs and oranges,herbs and flowers for the altars naturally inspired larger courtyard plazas and gardens. Victoria Gardens Regional Center, Rancho Cucamonga 0 Master Plan 42 Master Plan ch.2 I II CAtirtIMA MIN ,114 011211,LMA I 14.4 Fig.2-42:Cultural heritage:farming The use of water also governed the physical organization of rhe mission,house and rancho,an attitude present in the land allocation practices of the Law of the Indies in which resources were allocated for the benefit of the larger community as well as conservation. In this design,a gridiron plan containing pueblos were arranged around a plaza with orchards and communal pastures fed by irrigation channels. As a result of these developments,the Southern California region experienced phenomenal growth and prosperity from the 1850's through the 1930's, particularly in agriculture and wine making.The Cucamonga Valley was no exception, having had a long history of wine making in addition to its rich agricultural heritage. In the 1920's the region was home to one of the largest vineyards in the world, over 6,000 acres. The Cucamonga Valley agrarian industry had flourished at the turn of the century, prompting aggressive promotion campaigns. By 1902, publications of the Ontario-Cucamonga- Etiwanda Colonies described picturesque travel through the San Bernardino Mountains arriving at arcadian destinations surrounded by orange and lemon groves,vineyards and snow-capped vistas,settling in the gem of the foothills. Master Plan Q Victoria Gardens Regional Center, Rancho Cucamonga ch.2 Master Plan 43 2.4b The Master Plan It is the unique aesthetic of the Southern California landscape that has inspired the design of the Landscape Master Plan for Victoria Gardens in the City of Rancho Cucamonga.Victoria Gardens is part ofa larger 2,100 acre community master plan called Victoria,and represents the symbolic and actual heart of this planned community. The Victoria site sits in a valley at the base of the San Bernardino Mountains. The gentle slope of the land rises up to the foothills from Route 66 to Baseline Road. The rich, alluvial soils have supported vineyards and orchards, palm groves and windrows for over a century.The Victoria Gardens site is bounded by Day Creek Boulevard to the west, Church Street to the north, Victoria Gardens Lane to the east and south.Victoria Gardens also encompasses a sire east of Victoria Gardens Lane (referred to as the Eastern Area) and the site south of Victoria Gardens Lane fronting Foothill Boulevard(referred to as the Route 66 Area). The rectilinear grid of the site plan provides the Master Plan with flexible building blocks averaging 300 feet square, reinforcing the alignment of the 7 greater residential precincts of Victoria.The Main Street concept allows a mix -•....--4.:-.a of uses and a diversity of spaces within the urban plan.The landscape is intended r- .,-,F) ,� to be a community amenity supporting the town center's architectural design. ' Le– '—Ilefiriiii tN ,i „Pk .--,.•-,.. to ,. The Landscape Master Plan describes the overall landscape concepts and general ~ "`�" planting designs for Victoria Gardens. Plant materials were selected based on historic precedents, borrowed from the landscape heritage of the region and T existing inventories within the community and consistency with the existing - street tree master plans for Victoria. •, .iitc.*ka t The streetscape consists of a series of hierarchical layers designed to complement .1,,.;' , the unique character of each street based on the architectural Master Plan. . _ `'` Planting is used for shade, color, rhythm, skyline vistas to frame distant - i mountain views, understory pedestrian scaling and compatibility with the ; r '�",- master plans for Victoria.As stated earlier,individual garden areas within the project will address specific themes based on the region's landscape heritage. a: .

The Town Square, Town Green and South Plaza are the largest and most important central spaces in the project. They are the symbolic and actual heart of Victoria Gardens.The Community Square serves as the physical link and terminus to the Victoria Arbors Victoria Park Lane Trail. London Plane Trees will flank the space,visually connecting the Plane Trees north of Church Street.Arbors will frame both sides of Arbor Lane at the pedestrian sidewalks at Church and Merlot,marking the entries to the residential neighborhoods and urban core of Victoria Gardens and facilitating the natural movements of pedestrians from Victoria Arbors'central promenade.

Mas ter Plan CI Victoria Gardens Regional Center, Rancho Cucamonga ch,2 Master Plan 47 2.5 THE SIGNAGE PLAN I. Introduction The purpose of the following Uniform Sign Program is to establish a coordinated exterior signage program that affords the project prominent identification while achieving a unified overall attractive appearance. Also, controlled way finding and identity signage is a major factor in creating and preserving the design character of the overall project. The way finding and identity graphics of the project play a major role in the unification of the project as a whole. With the numerous varied program elements the graphics work to link the elements together,not to create a feeling of one large development, but rather to help the visitor navigate through an urban environment.The graphics, like in many similar urban environments, help w create a sense of orientation for the first time visitor, and a sense of familiarity and comfort for those that return often. While the architects and planners are concerned with the broader issues of space and circulation, the graphics are often times focused on the specific details of those spaces.These details come in many forms, shapes, and sizes such as special paving patterns, handrails, banners,sculpture, fountains,and public art-all adding a layer of detail and information that sets the mood of the project.Add to this shapes,color,images,objects, and typography,and this equals a place that brims with energy and interest.

In general the signage will be of a small scale that reflects more of the pedestrian scale of an urban environment rather then a larger vehicular- scaled approach that is more reminiscent of suburban shopping environments. The graphics will be very integrated with the architecture rather then applied on afterwards so as to convey an element of growth over time along with the evolution of the architecture. The variety and uniqueness of different signs will come into play with the tenant signs themselves,while the consistency of the graphics will come from the site pageantry,way finding sign system,and directories. / Materials for the signage will relate to and reflect the quality materials used throughout the architectural development. Rather than large monolithic pieces, ( / the pedestrian friendly signage will take on more detail and integration with public art-like pieces. T H, / / Er Overlaid on the graphics will be the sense of history and heritage that will ti establish this development as a unique environment,rooting it in its place and II I rA C • in the community,providing for numerous opportunities for public art that 1 TUSTIN reflect the surrounding areas. Sign Type A:Major Vertical Site Identity Located along the freeway and at major urban entries to the area, the major site identity monuments are ar an urban scale relating to the speed of the vehicle. They are intended to be viewed from the car at relatively high speeds and will have no pedestrian interaction. These monuments take on a civic landmark approach, and as such will be t ,ISI R'L,S.I''Clz more sculptural or artistic in nature and potentially be reflective of the heritage r~ t of the area. They will be between 35'and 70'tall depending on their location and contain the name of the project,Victoria Gardens,along with a logo or icon of the project and the names of the major tenants. Fig. 2-49 : Exterior Signage: Wayfinding and Identity Victoria Gardens Regional Center, Rancho Cucamonga 0 Master Plan 52 Master Plan ch.2 The letter height with the name of the project and the tenants will be no greater than 48"tall.The individual letters of the logo may be internallyand or ground lit. Two locations from the three identified on Fig. 2-46 will be selected for this type of signage. However, the sign that is located on the = northeast corner of the Eastern Area (adjacent to the intersection of the I-15 K Freeway and Church Street)will be permitted if authorized in a Development Agreement with the City. Sign Type B:Primary Project Gateways and Identity The vehicular entrance gateways and identities will be wall-mounted plaques j'- 7 .

Each of the landmarks has particular features which civiras T 11,1.1.1E make them distinctive and the following descriptions are guidelines for their design: Fig. 3-2 Rob Krier Structuring the city with the streets,the blocks,and landmarks Masterplan 0 Victoria Gardens Regional Center, Rancho Cucamonga ch.3 Design Guidelines 75 1 1H .:1 t3-- N to : ...- .... -,. 3.1a Neighborhood Retail: For the area that is characterized by shops that primarily serves the surrounding neighborhoods, the landmark is the facade treatments of the buildings. A triangular plaza is shown in the plan with a N. _ I similar pilaster rhythm on the facades of the buildings on each side.The rhythm `� ' 1 "� 1 it Ili t;, gives a definitive structure to the relatively smaller stores, ties together the - buildings and the open space,and is appropriate to the neighborhood scale. W� ,-;,,,-iii Fig3.1a -,,'' 3.1 b Corner Treatment: Special corners are created to address an important intersection,which help to designate the place and to direct people onto each of the retail streets. Elements of the landmark include a combination of the0 e following:corner entrances,windows with transparency,sculptural features in the facades,height and roof variation. Fig 3.ib ",.: 3.1c Residential and Institutional Corners: Residential and possible �. �... institutional buildings,such as the police substation,at the corners on Arbor "" Lane should be built at the Permissible Building Area tines in order to help make the transition from the more residential areas to the civic and Fig 3.1c commercial areas of Victoria Gardens. c 3,1d Community Building: The community building,which possibly could ?. . have a library and a communiryl children's theater as part of its program, Fig 3.1d should respond to its two important edges-the Town Green on the east and the Town Square to the south.Entrances,entrance elements,activity areas and windows should be oriented towards the Town Green to offer maximum activity and interest to the space.

The buildings on both sides of the plaza add a sense of rhythm to the space,achieved with recurring elements on the facades and rooflines, e.g. trusses, columns, eaves, awnings and other Fig 3.1, shading devices, paving patterns, lighting structures, and colors. The two buildings in the center between the Town Walks should be special buildings, treated as pavilions with maximum transparency and openings on foursides. ~'al A sculpted roof form, possibly with skylights, would further enhance the character of these pavilions. 3.1 j Corner Entry: A corner entrance at a major intersection on North Fig ij MainStreet is a visual lure to the eastern part of the Main Street Area.

Fig 3.1-n 3.2 BUILDING TYPOLOGIES Based on their sites that buildings occupy in the town center, the buildings have been divided into four typologies.The following guidelines elaborate on the qualities that make each typology an effective contributor to the experience �. f of Victoria Gardens. d , '; s,, 3.2a Main Street Buildings: These retail buildings constitute the frontages ,, , it ' - on the two major retail streets of the town center. With street widths of more Ftg,3.2a than 70 feet, these buildings should have heights that vary and are not lower ,....; than 20 feet, in order to provide an effective sense of enclosure.The scale of the building widths and the roof forms of the buildings should create variety of massing. w IA °' 3.2b TownWalkBuildings: TheTown Walks at Town Square are small scale 4 x streets that are less than 50 feet wide.The buildings that line the Walks should A ii 4 . reflect an intimate, pedestrian scale, using signs, entrances, awnings, and storefront windows. Surfaces that are perpendicular to the building facades ' _ ,�..-..,::. ",, Fig.3.2b are quite visible, so that design elements such as blade signs, facade relief, ...z�....,= shadow lines,and surface textures should be employed. - r. �' " 3.2c Buildings on Town Square: Situated on the main square of a small 4 downtown, these buildings automaticallyhave prominence. The quality of '44 9- M] .+'v °�. Yz�t4.s ° ` building materials,the roof forms,and the dimensions of parapets,openings '4-4-.1.2-3-,:. , Y` and awnings, should reflect the status of a Town Square building. With a 4‘, ' a*'', dimension of approximately 180 feet for the Town Square along North MainStreet,the buildings have a unique and generous forecourt. ' 11 3.2d Community Building(s): The planned community building and other a community buildings such as the police substation have a relationship to both d the commercial and residential uses on the site.The entrances and open spaces I , i ._* of the community buildings should be prominent and should be accessible and 4 _I_,z visible. The buildings should be able to respond to the changing needs of the 4 1, i i ', community with expansion and renovation. The Fig 3-3:Intimate pedestrian scale M a s t e r p I a n 0 Victoria Gardens Regional Center, Rancho Cucamonga ch.3 Design Guidelines 79 materials chosen should have a sense of permanency and at the same time should age gracefully. 3.2e: Mid-rise Buildings): Mid-rise is defined as a building which is divided at regular intervals into occupiable levels not to exceed l60 feet in height. These buildings are typically taller than the maximum height which people are willing to walk up and therefore requires mechanical vertical transportation. These types of buildings include building uses such as residential,hotels and office buildings 3.3 BUILDING MASS AND VOLUME 3.3a The project is on a site that has a grade change of 65 feet from high in the north to low in the south. The site is seen from a freeway along the south and east that is raised about 25 feet above adjacent grade. Therefore,the buildings will be seen from different angles and heights.The building forms should be treated in a three dimensional,sculptural way,with the possibility of a variety of roof forms. In addition,roofs need to be designed with visibility of equipment in mind. Equipment should be screened from street level and highway level i viewpoints,with raised parapets,louvers,or other equivalentsolutions. 3.3b Buildings should have a minimum height of 20 feet to the top of the roof i and 24 feet to the top of the parapet or ridgeline. I r 3.3c Buildings should address the street and have doors and windows that Ii open onto the street. Buildings should be built on the street edges,or Permissible f 3' r 1 ; -' : Building Area Boundaries,and the range that building frontages can set back I v � from the boundaries should be no more than three feet. �� -' 3.3d New buildings should relate to existing buildings by making reference to elements of similar scale and to parapet,cornice,lintel and sill lines. Fig 3-4:Diversity of Architecture 3.4 DIVERSITY OF ARCHITECTURE s"pk f i Victoria Gardens is a town center with a mixture of use and an eclectic diversity of architecture. No one style or theme is predominant; it is an amalgamation of many styles that give architectural vitality and interest to thetown. 3.4a Diversity can be achieved in part by each building being designed for its particular site conditions,whether it is on a paseo,the Town Square,or main street. Fig 3-5:Minimum height 20 feet Victoria Gardens Regional Center. Rancho Cucamonga !D Master plan 80 Design Guidelines ch.3 3.4b Diversity can also be accomplished with a good mix of tenant and product types. The size and quality of the tenants, the indoor and outdoor display ideas,and the quality of the building exterior are all Factors of design diversity. 3.4c Tenants within Victoria Gardens should be varied in their typical space r , ' ' `, °, requirements, the floor areas of the stores.A variety in the perceived scale of N.•.;- * ..,:e. the development is dependent on the mix of tenants and tenant sizes. ' ,y �� r E�.;k;, 3.4d No two adjacent buildings should have identical facade designs or colors. ff 3.5 EXTERIOR MATERIALS AND COLORS *:' m 3.5a No one exterior material or color scheme should dominate the architecture 4,.K- -t of a street or open space in Victoria Gardens. Diversity and richness of Fig 3-6:Diversity in building exterior architectural expression will be achieved with a variety of material choices chat are seen in proximity to one another. Materials such as stone, wood, tile, concrete, metal and glass can be introduced in different facade treatments to a �� "� ensure that a single material such as cement plaster is nor dominatingthe palette. ,,� . , . , 3.5b A mixture of high quality materials in very visible places and in varying "' ..-, . quantities can have a large impact on the perceived quality of the town center. + i; —'71-,-;11-, It is important to choose the materials,textures,and colors carefully to receive I i I I r .,E ,', i maximum benefit. AIS 3.5c The light quality is often muted in the Rancho Cucamonga region.A judicious use of intense colors,that can be seen in hazy light conditions,should Fig 3-7:Variety of material choices be used to maximize the visibility of thearchitecture.

They should extend a minimum of 3 feet and a maximum of L ��~ 10 feet from the building into the sidewalk space. t 3.6c Colonnades and covered walkways should have soffits that are at a ,; s# minimum height of 10 feet and the clear walking width should be at least 8 ,— feet clear. 3.6d Shading devices should be designed as an integral part of building facades Fig 3-8:Covered walkways provide shade and should be integrated into the aesthetics of thearchitecture.- 3.6e A variety of materials,with a sense of permanence, should be used for shading devices,e.g.wood louvers,glass and steel canopies.At the same time, more temporary materials that exploit the qualities of light with their transparency,like matte finished fabrics used in awnings,should beencouraged. 3.6f Shading devices and other parts of building design need to accommodate Fig 3-9: Transparent storefront occasional strong winds. Protection for the user and for the durability of the E µ building need to be considered. --.4 "*. 3.7 ENTRANCES AND FENESTRATIONS °; y Doors,windows,storefronts,and other light giving apertures are included in this set of design elines. Four basic purposes are served: inside and outside, isplay,and views.The intent of the guidelines is to enhance h,light to the f r i the qualities related to all four. •` f i 1d i 3.7a Each door leaf shall be a minimum of 7 feet high and 3 feet wide and � doors in storefronts should be as transparent as possible.

Older buildings often have a sense of permanence due to ` . • the thickness of walls, rich shadow lines,deep fenestration and cornice lines. 41 1 � To replicate this phenomenon in new buildings, openings should have a minimum depth of 3 inches. In other words, frames for openings should be . set back 3 inches from the face of the building. ki) ���� I 3.7e Glazing sizes should not be larger than l 0 feet vertically and horizontally. r • Glazing should be interrupted by a joint or frame at least every 10 feet. Variety ,� _ of aperture sizes and glass frame sizes gives variety to architectural expression. Fig 3-10:At least 30%openings. 3.8 EXTERIOR BUILDING LIGHTING Lighting that is visible on the inside and outside of a building contributes to the quality and mood of a building and can give it the sense of being inhabited and safe. 3.8a Exterior lighting should illuminate the overall building and focus on prominent features such as display and entry. 3.8b Building design should exploit the use of natural light with windows, skylights,light shelves and similar devices,minimizing dependence on artificial light. 3.8c The lighting strategy for Victoria Gardens should create an image of the town center as seen from the entry vantage points, such as from I-15, Day Creek Boulevard and Church Street. 3.8d Materials and lighting that causes glare and unwanted reflections at eye level should be avoided. Indirect light can be used to illuminate buildings, walkways and public spaces without glare. M as t e r p I a n C Victoria Gardens Regional Center, Rancho Cucamonga ch.3 Design Guidelines 83 3.9 BUILDING SERVICES 3.9a Service equipment located on roofs should be screened with louvers, parapets or similar devices. Screening should be integral to the architecture of the building and should not be perceived as an appendage. 3.9b Service areas and equipment at grade in Victoria Gardens, including mechanical, electrical, communications, emergency and transportation equipment,should be screened from ground level viewpoints.

Boundaries have been established for building and non-building areas in those parts of Victoria Gardens that do nor include publicly owned streets and open space. Essentially, there are four districts or areas that comprise the total Victoria Gardens Regional Center: Victoria Gardens Regional Center, Rancho Cucamonga 0 Master Plan 90 Development Standards ch.4 4.1a The Main Street area (Main Street Area), bounded by Day Creek Boulevard,Merlot Street and Victoria Gardens Lane; 4.1b The predominantly residential area(Residential Area),boundedby Day Creek Boulevard,Church Street, Merlot and Arbor Lane;and 4.1c TheRoute66 predominantlycommercial area(Route66Area),bounded by Day Creek Boulevard,Foothill Boulevard(US Route 66),Interstate Highway I 15,and Victoria Gardens Lane; 4.1d The eastern mixed-use area(Eastern Area),bounded by Church Street, Victoria Gardens Lane,and Interstate Highway 15. 4.1e Civic/Parking Arca,hounded by Church Street, Merlot Street,Arbor Lane,and Pavillion Gardens PI The Permissible Building Areas Plan shows the areas in which buildings can be built. The boundaries of the Permissible Building Areas also define the areas for streets, which are shown in the next section with plan and section drawings.The Permissible Building Areas describe the pattern of town blocks, which creates the development framework for Victoria Gardens to be a pedestrian-friendly,walkable town center. The total site area of Victoria Gardens is comprised of a gross area of approximately 174 acres,and without the inclusion of the right-of-way of Victoria Gardens Lane,a net area of approximately 165 acres.The total Permissible Building Area in square feet of gross building floor area is 2,502,000,which is allocated within the four districts of Victoria Gardens with approximately the following total area: Main Street Area: 2,128,800 sf Commercial/Office/Hotel 90,850 sf Civic 385 dwelling units Residential Area:215 dwelling units Route 66 Area: 95,700 sf Commercial/Office Eastern Area: 185,500 sf Commercial/Office Civic/Parking Area 10,000 sf Civic Surface parking lot of 506 parking space or Surface parking and rwo.level parking structure with 869 parking spaces Master Plan 41 Victoria Gardens Regional Center, Rancho Cucamonga 92 Development Standards ch.4 Magical Fan Pals Mbshtgtor a mbustal b Mataibscl rFrusalLtyanalraltrdry kaiFan rani Rw+shtigtc tambiubl8 Southern Magnolia Magnolia grondlloralamud Sam atliaticanFanPahlMbshtagtp4atobiabl& >tihhanSunac 1 M ',:r t -'``` �3, , ., n �1s3 Q7rUSlailCOta) • Y , `*t .. • I lin i_Lu iir g etrrs�zr 't � � imiitt fin ,.1.4 i ' - _ . ,:;., - fil ____ _ _______ ,. ...... eaasas+, s i,t' aka ..h i.

Trees are used both as landmarks at focal areas of the project, and as shade-creating elements of the streetscape. The Key Plan for street sections indicates the location of the street section drawings that follow.The section drawings show the width of roadways and sidewalks, parking, medians and building locations. Some of the more important features of the street drawings are that they show the different character of each street, the large areas dedicated to pedestrians, the on-street parking on almost every street, and the shading provided by tree canopies. The different tree species create hierarchy at the overall project scale, and variety at the human scale. The peripheral planting is designed for visibility and image and is therefore the highest. Moving towards the center, the trees are lower in height and chosen for shade and response to the pedestrian scale. Moving from the periphery to the center,the four categories of tree plantings are a. Mexican Fan Palms & Date Palms,b. London Plane Trees,c. Lemon Gums and d. California Peppers. The street landscaping concept may be implemented as follows: Victoria Gardens Regional Center, Rancho Cucamonga M as t e r Plan 94 Development Standards ch„4 .. .. 1 -k1.7':-.411fIti' 77`i'"F./if1ff ii-T,s' 1-ilIPIJ„,„!.,11.), 9 I.:4'.4''MAI ' ,- J17.4„,i '-",..1.7-is..)f-q,„...„ II L IrIFTI I I 1,.Y, '..ei;7',. ,,,--ir---' 4.2a Mexican Fan Palms aridDa te Palms / ,,,, [..g,„,,, -•Day Creek Boulevard(section A) .1.f 1,1,-, k .a'-, ,,,,," BRADFORD PEAR MEXICAN - ',k4..,0 g' 7 FAN PALM . . .: il ).') ‘'• .; . . ....:r Is- 0 IIli ...i., ;.,...• , ,.;,-,4. „ MEANDERING . 7CONCRETE WALK *** . ..
