3. All legal prerequisites prior to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.
B. Resolution.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby found, determined, and resolved by the Planning
Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows:
1. This Commission 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 this Commission during the above-
referenced public hearing on July 11, 2018, including written and oral staff reports, together with
public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. The application applies to property located on the west side of Sapphire Street,

d. The project site currently contains 52 parking spaces, which operates at a
deficiency of 45 parking spaces; and
e. The project proposes the addition of 100 parking spaces to support existing and
proposed church; and
f. The project was designed to meet all applicable development standards of the
Development Code relating to the development of churches in the Very Low (VL) Residential
District, including building setbacks, building height, maximum lot coverage, and parking.
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 proposed use is allowed within the applicable zoning district and
complies with all other applicable provisions of this zoning code, Municipal Code, General Plan,
and any applicable specific plans or City regulations/standards. Within the Very Low (VL)
Residential District churches are a permitted land use, subject to the approval of a Conditional
Use Permit. The proposed church expansion was designed to be compatible with all applicable
development standards of the Development Code, including parking, building setbacks, and
building height; and
b. That the site is physically suited for the type, density, and intensity of the
proposed use including access, utilities, and the absence of physical constraints and can be
conditioned to meet all related performance criteria and development standards. The 4.98-acre
project site is currently developed as a church land use on the approximate southerly third of the
project site, the remainder of the site is vacant and is used for occasional overflow parking. The
project site is suitable as a church use, has been used as a church for the past 35 years, and has
sufficient project area to accommodate the 2,390 square foot building addition to the existing
4,849 square foot church; and
c. That granting the permit would not be detrimental to the public interest, health,
safety, convenience, or welfare, or materially injurious to persons, property, or improvements in
the vicinity in which the project is located. The project site has been utilized for a church land use
since 1983 and its expansion and continued operation will not be detrimental to the public interest,
health, safety, convenience, or welfare, or materially injurious to persons, property, or
improvements in the vicinity in which the project is located. The project was designed to meet all
applicable Development Code standards and performance criteria, and can be conditioned
appropriately to minimize any potential impacts to adjacent properties.
4. Staff has determined that the project is categorically exempt from the requirements of
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The project qualifies under the Class 1
exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301- Existing Facilities, which covers minor
alterations to existing structures involving negligible expansion of use beyond that existing at the
time of the lead agencies determination, and the proposed addition will not result in the addition
of more than 2,500 square feet of floor area. In addition, there is no substantial evidence that the
project may have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning Commission has reviewed
the Planning Department's determination of exemption, and based on its own independent
judgment, concurs in the staff's determination of exemption.

42. Section 1.5.1, Table 1-1 Priority Projects, Category No. 1, of the San Bernardino County Technical
Guidance Document for Water Quality Management Plans reads "All significant re-development
projects — defined as the addition or replacement of 5,000 or more square feet (sq. ft.) of impervious
surface on an already developed site subject to discretionary approval of the permitting jurisdiction .
In addition: Where re-development results in an increase of 50% or more of the impervious surfaces
of a previously existing developed site, the numeric sizing criteria discussed in Section 4 applies to
the entire development.
The project is showing unknown square feet of existing impervious area on the entitlement submittal
dated September 12, 2017. The project is showing 37,717 square feet of proposed and/or removal
and replacement of impervious area. The proposed/removal/replacement impervious area equals or
exceeds 50% of the existing impervious area, the project is conditioned, prior to the issuance of a
grading permit, to prepare a final project-specific water quality management plan to treat the storm
water runoff of the entire development's impervious area.
43. The direction of storm water flow flowing across the permeable paver storm water treatment device
is a small area compared to the total area of each of the permeable paver locations. Prior to
issuance of the grading permit and approval of the final project-specific water quality management
plan (WQMP) the engineer of record shall provide a design which will allow the storm water to
evenly flow into the permeable paver gravel base (such as a catch basin with a perforated pipe
running under the length of the permeable paver area, or a similar design), and shall show the
design on the grading plan and shall provide a detail on the WQMP site and drainage plan showing
how the storm water is evenly distributed into the permeable paver gravel base.

44. GROUND WATER PROTECTION:
Prior to approval of the final project specific water quality management plan (WQMP), the WQMP
document shall meet the requirements of the State Water Resources Control Board Order No.
R8-2010-0036 (NPDES No. CAS 618036), the San Bernardino County Municipal Separate Storm
Sewers Separation (MS4) Permit reads:
Section XI.D(Water Quality Management Plan Requirements).8(Groundwater Protection):
Treatment Control BMPs utilizing infiltration [exclusive of incidental infiltration and BMPs not
designed to primarily function as infiltration devices (such as grassy swales, detention basins,
vegetated buffer strips, constructed wetlands, etc.)] must comply with the following minimum
requirements to protect groundwater:
a. Use of structural infiltration treatment BMPs shall not cause or contribute to an exceedance of
ground water quality objectives.
b. Source control and pollution prevention control BMPs shall be implemented to protect
groundwater quality. The need for pre-treatment BMPs such as sedimentation or filtration should be
evaluated prior to infiltration.
c. Adequate pretreatment of runoff prior to infiltration shall be required in gas stations and large
commercial parking lots. (NOTE: The State Water Quality Control Board defines a large commercial
parking lot as '100,000 sq. ft. or more of commercial development to include parking lot (with 100 or
more vehicle traffics), OR, by means of 5,000sqft or more of allowable space designated for parking
purposes').
d. Unless adequate pre-treatment of runoff is provided prior to infiltration structural infiltration
treatment BMPs must not be used for areas of industrial or light industrial activity{77}, areas subject
to high vehicular traffic (25,000 or more daily traffic); car washes; fleet storage areas; nurseries; or
any other high threat to water quality land uses or activities.
e. Class V injection wells or dry wells must not be placed in areas subject to vehicular{78} repair or
maintenance activities{79}, such as an auto body repair shop, automotive repair shop, new and
used car dealership, specialty repair shop (e.g., transmission and muffler repair shop) or any facility
that does any vehicular repair work.
f. Structural infiltration BMP treatment shall not be used at sites that are known to have soil and
groundwater contamination.
g. Structural infiltration treatment BMPs shall be located at least 100 feet horizontally from any
water supply wells.
h. The vertical distance from the bottom of any infiltration structural treatment BMP to the historic
high groundwater mark shall be at least 10-feet. Where the groundwater basins do not support
beneficial uses, this vertical distance criteria may be reduced, provided groundwater quality is
maintained.
i. Structural infiltration treatment BMPs shall not cause a nuisance or pollution as defined in Water
Code Section 13050.
45. Prior to issuance of a grading permit the applicant shall show on the site plan and the permitted
grading plan set for non-residential projects the designated parking for clean air vehicles per the
current adopted California Green Building Standards Code, section 5.106.5.2.
