PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 18-42
ME DRC2017-00879—ARCHIBALD OIL

and a street frontage of approximately 175 feet along Arrow Route and is presently improved with
a vacant service station building and a fuel canopy with 4 fuel pumps; and
b. The property to the north of the subject site is designated Low Medium
Residential and is improved with the Mulberry Early Education Center. To the west is Archibald
Avenue and beyond that the property is designated Office and is vacant. The property to the east
is designated Low Medium Residential and contains a single-family house. To the south is Arrow
Route and beyond that the property is designated General Commercial and is improved with a
commercial center; and
c. The application proposes to establish retail sales in an existing 1,728 square foot
vacant service station building, re-establish an existing 1,481 square foot canopy with 4 fuel
pumps, and install a 968-square foot car wash on a 29,456-square foot (0.676 acre) parcel; and
d. The application proposes to reduce the total on-site parking by 1 parking space,
a proposed 12.5 percent reduction in the on-site parking requirement associated with a request
to establish retail sales in an existing 1,728 square foot vacant service station building, re-
establish an existing 1,481 square foot canopy with 4 fuel pumps, and install a 968-square foot
car wash on a 29,456-square foot (0.676 acre) parcel; and
e. The project site is located in the Low Medium (LM) Residential District (a
proposed General Commercial (GC) District and has been designed to comply with the all
applicable design standards, except for the number of parking spaces and the minimum parking
setback, which are addressed in the corresponding Variance and Minor Exception applications;
and
f. The project site provides 7 parking spaces; and
g. The project will retain the existing driveway at the northwest corner of the site,
close the existing driveway at the southwest corner of the site, and relocate the existing driveway
at the southeast corner of the site to a new shared driveway for the project site and the vacant
property to the east; both driveways will be provided with decorative paving.
3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above-
referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2
above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows:
a. That the Minor Exception is consistent with the General Plan or any applicable
specific plan or Development Agreement. The proposed reduction in the required number of
parking spaces is consistent with the General Plan, which has stated policies to designate
appropriate land uses to support local community needs (LU-1.2) and to support development
complementary infill development, rehabilitation, and reuse that contribute positively to the
surrounding residential neighborhood areas (Policy LU-2.4). The proposed parking reduction is
necessary due to design constraints between the existing service station use and the proposed
carwash.; and
b. That the proposed development is compatible with existing and proposed land
uses in the surrounding area. The proposed project is compatible with the surrounding land uses
as the project site is within the existing Low Medium (LM) Residential District and proposed
General Commercial (GC) District, which will permit the re-establishment of the service station
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 18-42
ME DRC2017-00879 —ARCHIBALD OIL

Page 3
land use. The proposed project will rehabilitate and reuse an existing service station building that
has been closed since 2002 and the redesign and reuse of a project site that will contribute
positively to the surrounding area; and
c. That the proposed exception to the specific development standard(s) is
necessary to allow creative design solutions compatible with the desires of the community and/or
to accommodate unique site conditions. The proposed parking reduction is necessary due to
design constraints between the existing service station use and the proposed carwash.
Specifically, the service station building is located in the center of the project site and the fuel
pump canopy is located between the service station building and the Archibald Avenue street
frontage. The addition of the carwash building adjacent to the service station, the addition of
perimeter landscaping, and the addition of 7 other parking spaces does not provide the
opportunity to add any additional parking; and
d. That the granting of the Minor Exception will not constitute a grant of special
privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties classified in the same district, and
will not be detrimental to public health, safety or welfare or materially injurious properties or
improvements in the vicinity. The proposed reduction in the required number of parking spaces
is not a grant of special privilege in that the Development Code allows flexibility to reduce the
required number of parking spaces where the applicant has demonstrated that the project will
provide adequate parking for all on-site uses. Operation and use of the fuel pumps does not
require customers patronizing the project site to enter the service station building as fuel can be
purchased directly at the fuel pump. Operation and use of the carwash facility is automated and
a carwash can be purchased directly at the carwash facility. There is sufficient parking on-site to
support the patronage of the service station food store.
4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the proposed Mitigated Negative
Declaration, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment
for the application, the Planning Commission finds that there is no substantial evidence that the
project will have a significant effect upon the environment and recommends the City Council adopt
a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Monitoring Program attached hereto, and incorporated
herein by this reference, based upon the findings as follows:
a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's local
CEQA Guidelines, the City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of
the project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, City staff determined that, with
the imposition of mitigation measures, there would be no substantial evidence that the project
would have a significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated
Negative Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, the City staff provided public notice of the public
comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration.
(i) A comment letter was received from the Burrtec Waste Industries, dated
May 18, 2018, in response to the circulated IS/MND. Burrtec's comment
addressed AB 341 and AB 1826, which requires that commercial
businesses generating more than 4 cubic yards of waste per week
participate in a commercial waste recycling program, and that businesses
that sell food must also participate in a food waste recycling program. The
project will require at least a 3-cubic yard bin each for waste and mixed
recyclables and should also make provisions for an additional bin for food
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 18-42
ME DRC2017-00879—ARCHIBALD OIL
July 11, 2018
Page 4
waste. Conditions of approval require the applicant to provide adequate
trash bins for waste, recyclables, and food waste.
(ii) A comment letter was received from the Department of Toxic Substances
Control (DTSC), dated May 23, 2018, in response to the circulated IS/MND.
The DTSC's comments questioned whether any historic uses at the project
site may have resulted in any release of hazardous waste/substances, if a
Phase 1 Environmental Assessment had been prepared, if there are any
PCB containing transformers on-site, whether underground storage tanks
were used at the site, and if there is soil contamination or groundwater
contamination on-site. A Phase 1 Environmental Assessment has not been
prepared, the applicant indicated that there are none, and have never been,
any PCB containing transformers on the project site, the underground
storage tanks were previously removed, and provided a Remedial Action
Completion Certificate, dated November 5, 2001. The Remedial Action
Completion Certificate was issued by the County of San Bernardino Fire
Department, Office of the Fire Marshall, Hazardous Materials Division for
the project site indicating that no further remedial action is required. On
June 13, 2018, the DTSC indicated that they have reviewed the applicant's
response and had no further comments.
(iii) A comment letter was received from the South Coast Air Quality
Management District (SCAQMD), dated May 29, 2018, in response to the
circulated IS/MND. The SCAQMD's comments identified that since a
permit is required by the SCAQMD they should be identified as a
Responsible Agency on the MND and that the Final MND should
demonstrate compliance with SCAQMD Rules. The SCAQMD indicated
that the Air Quality analysis did not include operational ROG emissions
generated from storage tanks or from the fueling process and
recommended that a Health Risk Assessment analysis be prepared. The
SQAQMD recommended a modification to the Air Quality Mitigation
Measure, Short Term (Construction) Emissions from a Tier 3 to a Tier 4.
Finally, the SCAQMD recommended utilizing the current CalEEMod
(Version 2016.3.2) in the air quality analysis. On June 6, 2018, the
applicant's consultant (MD Acoustics) responded to SCAQMD comments.
That response 1) recognized compliance with AQMD Rules 201, 203, and
461; 2) analyzed operational ROG emissions generated from the storage
tanks and from the fueling process and found them to be below the daily
VOC threshold; 3) identified that the project is below a threshold that would
require a Health Risk Assessment; 4) analyzed and acknowledged the
distance to sensitive receptors; 5) addressed compliance with CARB Tier
3; and 6) acknowledged that "revising the construction and operational
emissions calculations is not expected to change the less than significant
findings in the MND." On June 21, 2018, the SCAQMD concurred with the
applicant's response and had no further comments; and
b. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and
all comments received regarding the Mitigated Negative Declaration and, based on the whole
record before it, finds: (i)that the Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared in compliance with
CEQA; and (ii) that, based on the imposition of mitigation measures, there is no substantial
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 18-42
ME DRC2017-00879 —ARCHIBALD OIL
July 11, 2018
Page 5
evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning
Commission further finds that the Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent
judgment and analysis of the Planning Commission. Based on these findings, the Planning
Commission therefore recommends the City Council adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration;
and
c. The Planning Commission has also reviewed and considered the Mitigation
Monitoring Program for the project that has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of Public
Resources Code Section 21081.6 and finds that such Program is designed to ensure compliance
with the mitigation measures during project implementation. The Planning Commission therefore
recommends the City Council adopt the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project; and
d. The custodian of records for the Initial Study, Mitigated Negative Declaration,
Mitigation Monitoring Program and all other materials which constitute the record of proceedings
upon which the City Council's decision is based is the Planning Director of the City of Rancho
Cucamonga. Those documents are available for public review in the Planning Department of the
City of Rancho Cucamonga located at 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga, California
91730, telephone (909) 477-2750.
5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in Paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above,
this Commission hereby approves the application subject to each and every condition set forth
below.
