Item A —2 HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION AND PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES R,NCOHG NOVEMBER 9, 2016 �[JCW NGA Page 3 Chairman Oaxaca opened the public hearing. Richard Dick stated he is the owner of the property to the south of the proposed project. He questioned the parking reduction. He said he intends to post his property with signs stating hotel guests are not allowed on the property. He asked how the parking reduction was determined. Chairman Oaxaca closed the public hearing. Chairman Oaxaca asked about the applicability of the CCR's with respect to the change of use from a restaurant to a hotel use Mr. Van der Zwaag said there will be no changes to the CCR's. Chairman Oaxaca confirmed that the CCR's are under the control of the property owner. The 2 spaces in question have been removed and CCR's have a reciprocal arrangement. Mr. Van der Zwaag said the 3 spaces at the and of the drive aisle are not shared in the parking agreement. Commissioner Fletcher asked what buildings are included in that agreement. Mr. Van der Zwaag noted on the map that Mr. Dick's property is in it and all the buildings to the west are included to Milliken Avenue. Carl Ballard of Coombs Associates said he did the parking study. He said they looked at our Code and 3 similar hotels which they evaluation 3:00 a.m. and at 3:00 p.m. on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. He said they noted the usage at 3:00 a.m. is higher than at 3:00 p.m. He said this project provides well above what is needed and no off -site parking is needed. Commissioner Fletcher said the design will be an interesting addition to Foothill Boulevard and he is ok with the parking reduction as long as the neighbors post the parking. Vice Chairman Macias said he likes the design, and he is ok with the parking reduction. Chairman Oaxaca said he agreed and noted the shuttle service should resolve any parking issues. Moved by Macias, seconded by Fletcher, carried 3-0-2 (Munoz, Wimberly absent) to adopt the Resolutions of Approval for Design Review DRC2016-00295 and Minor Exception DRC2016-00296 with conditions as presented.

Staff has prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration of environmental impacts for consideration. Tabe van der Zwaag, Associate Planner, gave the staff report and PowerPoint presentation (copy on file). He noted for the record a change in the parcel number and that the change would be reflected in the resolution. Victoria Jones and Janet Ryerson, Park and Recreation Commissioners, were welcomed and recognized. Chairman Oaxaca asked if the City's team had any comment. Nettie Neilsen, Community Services Director said staff covered it well. She said the facility will replace the gym for the current sports center which has been in use for 19 years. Chairman Oaxaca said this is an opportunity to offer more to the community than the other site. Ms. Neilsen said the gym currently used is located in an old retail center and the lease is up. She said the courts are not regulation size and there are roof problems. She said the new facility is regulation, and has a better area for staff and the concession area. She said the old center has no outdoor space and the new provides extra room for circulation and security. She said the new facility could also serve as an evacuation center if needed. Commissioner Fletcher said it is attractive, offers benefits, and will be used by many. He said it will be well received by the community. Vice Chairman Macias said he was at the DRC and he is excited about the novel design and amenities. Chairman Oaxaca agreed the old center did its part and the new facility is exciting and also meets our high standards with amenities.

Tom Grahn, Associate Planner, gave the staff report and PowerPoint presentation (copy on Me). Commissioner Fletcher suggested staff supply additional photographs and then asked for clarification of what a HABS Level 3 analysis includes. Mr. Grahn said the HABS 3 provides detailed photos, measurements of the buildings and the site, it documents the significance of the property and the conditions of the buildings and site including a full photo history. Jary Cockroft said he is representing the Biane Family Properties. He said he appreciates Mr. Grahn's and Ms. Burnett's assistance. He said he went back to LSA who did the original resource and impact study and reviewed the significance of these houses. They found them architecturally insignificant. He said the buildings have updated interiors and the exterior construction/design is very common for that time period. He said they accept the conditions of approval as written. He said they are not opposing the removal of the sidewalk as required in the conditions but they would like to work with staff to come up with a solution with respect to the sidewalk. Chairman Oaxaca opened the public hearing and seeing and hearing no comment, closed the public hearing. Commissioner Fletcher said he is ok with the report and application and has no concerns. He moved to approve the application. Vice Chairman Macias said staff and the applicant did a good job looking at alternatives. He agreed the loss of those houses does not impact the overall significance of the winery complex. Chairman Oaxaca agreed. He asked staff if there is flexibility regarding the condition re: the curb and gutter removal. Item A —5 HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION AND PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES RANCHO NOVEMBER 9, 2016 C[CAMONM Page 6 Albert Espinoza, Assistant City Engineer, said he would work with the applicant to determine if flexibility is possible on this issue. Moved by Macias, seconded by Fletcher, carried 3-0-2 (Munoz, Wimberly absent) to adopt the Resolution of Approval for Design Review Modification DRC2016-00345 as presented TIME EXTENSION DRC2016-00519 - TIM HARRISON - A request to allow for a one (1) year time extension of a previously approved 2-lot Tentative Parcel Map (SUBTPM17663) on 0.396 acres in the Low (L) Residential District, on the west side of Archibald Avenue, south of Tryon Street, located at 7912 Archibald Avenue: APN: 0208-131-84. This project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines as a Class 15 (CEQA Guidelines Section 15315) exemption, which covers minor land divisions of four or fewer parcels. Tom Grahn, Associate Planner, gave the staff report and PowerPoint presentation (copy on file). Tim Harrison, the property owner, said the new arrangement provides a cul-de-sac and safer conditions for kids walking to school. He said Staff was very helpful and patient. Mr. Harrison said after approval he will do the improvements on Archibald first and then develop the lot with a single-family home and granny quarters later. Chairman Oaxaca opened the public hearing, and hearing and seeing no further comment, Chairman Oaxaca closed the public hearing. Moved by Fletcher, seconded by Macias, carried 3-0-2 (Munoz, Wimberly absent) to adopt the Resolution of Approval for Time Extension DRC2016-00519 as presented. G. TRAIL EASEMENT VACATION DRC2016-00780 — DANNY MOREL - A request to vacate a portion of an existing equestrian easement located along the southern edge of the property within the Estate Residential (ER) District of the Etiwanda Specific Plan and within the Equestrian Overlay District at 5820 Rolling Pastures — APN: 0225-122-96. Related File: DRC2013-00964. This project is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15305 (Class 5 Exemption — Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations). This item will be forwarded to the City Council for final action. Dominick Perez, Associate Planner, gave the staff report and PowerPoint presentation (copy on file). He said they are working with the Fire District to obtain a notarized consent. He confirmed that the parcels to the east received approval for their fence in 2006. Commissioner Fletcher asked how the City made a mistake when block wall request is submitted and the construction is followed by an inspector. HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION AND PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES CWNCi O NOVEMBER 9, 2016 Page 7 Mr. Perez replied that unfortunately the Building and Safety persons involved are no longer here. He speculated the house to the east was not there at the time and the Fire District may have been under construction. The Inspector may have reviewed the wall for structural soundness but not for exact location. He said it was inappropriately placed on the property line. Danny Morel stated he is the applicant and property owner. He said his home is complete and ready to move in, all the block walls are built and they are just waiting on this final piece. He said all the neighbors are in favor of the proposal. Chairman Oaxaca opened the public hearing. Larry Henderson representing Alta Loma Riding Club said their Board of Directors took action to oppose the application as it is bad precedence to decide this based upon a City mistake. He said they are sympathetic to the applicant but throughout the equestrian overlay there is the intent to protect feeder trails. He said to allow one neighbor to illegally build across an easement and expect the others to bend is bad planning. He said the City adopted the Trails plan in 1987 and this is a real concern for the riding club. He said staff is taking a cavalier attitude to the Equestrian Overlay - and piecemeal tearing up of those documents. He said they intend to oppose the application at the Council meeting as well. Chairman Oaxaca closed the public hearing. Vice Chairman Macias said this is unfortunate and Mr. Henderson is right. He said staff needs to recognize the importance in the future but sometimes we need flexibility. He said he supports staffs recommendation. Commissioner Fletcher agreed with all the comments including those of Mr. Henderson. He said staff needs to protect our plans without making a lot of amendments. Equestrian lots are a benefit to the City. He said that at the Trails meeting he said he did not want to penalize the current property owner. He said in this case it does not really affect the trail circulation and he would support it. Mistakes were made by the City and he did not want to penalize the property owner. Chairman Oaxaca said he also was at TAC and his conclusion was the same. The applicant is doing his best to abide by the requirements and we do not want to penalize him for something that occurred long ago. Moved by Fletcher, seconded by Macias, carried 3-0-2 (Munoz, Wimberly absent) to adopt the Resolution recommending approval by the City Council.

Candyce Burnett, City Planner noted that both sites are on the Haven Overlay and relate to a gateway of the City. She referred to the intent of the Haven Overlay and how the designs should reflect this and also how they relate to Empire Lakes as well. She spoke of pedestrian connectivity, a walkable living lifestyle, giving the appearance of office development and how Item C —1 PLANNING COMMISSION WORKSHOP MINUTES RANCHO DECEMBER 14, 2016 CHCAMONOA Page 2 to work with the hotels with tall massing on Haven Avenue and the City's desire to match the massing. III. ITENIS FOR DISCUSSION A. PRE -APPLICATION REVIEW DRC2016-00826 — PDC OC/IE LLC — A Pre -Application Review of a proposed industrial development consisting of three (3) industrial buildings with a combined floor area of 305,745 square feet on a parcel of about 14.02 acres, that is part of a vacant property consisting of 3 vacant parcels with a combined area of 25.6 acres (not including street dedications which will be vacated), located at the northwest corner of Utica Avenue and 4th Street in the Industrial Park (IP) District. B. PRE -APPLICATION REVIEW DRC2016-00626 — THERALDSON HOSPITALITY DEVELOPMENT (THD) — A Pre -Application Review of a proposed commercial development consisting of two (2) 5-story hotels with 115 rooms each and one (1) restaurant with a floor area of 8,340 square feet (including an outdoor dining area of 2,000 square feet) on a parcel of about 297,000 square feet (6.8 acres), that is part of a vacant property consisting of 3 vacant parcels with a combined area of 25.6 acres (not including street dedications which will be vacated), located at the northeast corner of Haven Avenue and 4th Street in the Industrial Park (IP) District, Haven Avenue Overlay District; APN: 0210-081-21. Dominick Perez, Associate Planner, facilitated introductions of the Design Teams for the applicants. He gave a brief description of the project proposals and general site characteristics. He noted that the staff report indicated the Panattoni site had a portion in the Haven Overlay. Staff has since determined that was not correct. A 235,000 square foot industrial building is also under review at the northeast corner of 4'^ Street and Utica Avenue. Exhibit F of Item A (page 20 of the packet) indicates a Lot Line Adjustment which will be heard by the Council tomorrow. He noted that the Haven Overly should reflect: a prime office corridor; high quality development that is progressive, urban, appealing and eye catching design. He said the restaurant pad is 8,340 square feet and the elevations will be reviewed at a later time. He said Exhibit C for the hotels was only a conceptual design (page 8-15). He said staff has already noted revisions needed in the staff report including decorative veneer suggesting tower elements, glass, glazing and glass accents on all elevations, metal features, trim/accents, metal features and bolder high -contrast colors to emphasize different areas of the buildings. He said the Panattoni development consists of-3 buildings; staff reviewed the square footages and access described on page A-2 of the agenda packet. He said the architecture has been revised and improved with a large amount of glazing. He said the material of the exterior has not been specifically called out but staff suggested a Item C —2 PLANNING COMMISSION WORKSHOP MINUTES DECEMBER 14, 2016 C%IONM Page 3 sandblasted surface rather than the proposed stone veneer. Commissioner Fletcher asked why the sandblasted finish is better than stone veneer. Canyce Burnett, City Planner said the stone tends to look more residential. She indicated that the City wants something more sleek/urban. Jacob LeBlanc of Panattoni said they will work with staff to blend in the design. Mr. Perez noted the employee break areas are indicated, but not specific as to what is included in them. He mentioned Turf parking is also indicated, but this material/concept does not currently exist in City standards and should be discussed. Ms. Burnett noted it does not hold up well depending upon the frequency of traffic on it. She said other materials can be used. Mr. LeBlance said they used it to help meet the landscaping requirement. Mr. Perez noted the dock screening area on the north side -wall is required to be on the outside of the building - the setback should be larger for maneuverability and what is shown is very tight. Commissioner Fletcher asked what is proposed for Section 1, north of the Theraldson site. Ms Burnett said nothing is proposed yet. Don Cape of Theraldson Hospitality said they currently have 3 hotels in the City running at 100% occupancy. He referred to the conceptual site plan and said the Hotels are now parallel to the street as requested by staff. Jacob Le Blanc of Panattoni said their work is primarily industrial. He said their proposed design has architectural features and they added glazing and massing. He said they want multiple tenants and with a quasi -retail -tenant mix. He said they broke up the massing for this along with outdoor areas. He said E-Commerce is changing things and the industrial market is very strong. He said they envision this as owner/user retail being absorbed by higher quality industrial. He said they are not opposed to an Amazon" type facility; a plus is it provides lots of jobs. Carol Plowman of Lee & Associates said there is no other product like this in the Inland Empire and it will present a very upscale image. Jacob LeBlanc noted that on Archibald Avenue where Q VC is located could have used more -it looks plain. He said this is different. He said they took this same approach in Item C -3 PLANNING COMMISSION WORKSHOP MINUTES RANCHO DECEMBER 14, 2016 CUCAMONGA Page 4 Anaheim and it has been very successful. Mr. Perez referred to the hotels. He said the report discusses a Development Code Amendment required to allow us to push the buildings up to setback line. He said the amendment would allow them to have the maximum height at the setback line whereas the current Code is a more stepped/graduated approach with less height at the setback but increasing to the interior of the site. He said the idea is to bring them closer to the street for a more urban feel. Mr. Cape asked what the setback would be if the hotel along 4"' Street was lined up with the southernmost industrial building on the Panattoni site. He suggested they move the hotels back to allow more parking during the day for the restaurant. He said the current configuration will make it difficult to lease out because of the limited parking close to the restaurant pad. He said they have a similar situation across the street and it has not been leased for years. He said he needs about 34 feet to allow for one row of parking with a drive aisle along 4th Street. Mr. Perez invited the Commissioners to comment on the Haven and 4th Street site. Commissioner Munoz noted there was no architecture submitted to look at (the applicant provided a sample from a recent Temecula development) but the sample indicates nice articulation Mr. Cape said the room mix will determine how much articulation is achieved -double queens create the big "bump -outs". Chairman Oaxaca asked if these proposed hotels will be similar to sample hotels. He said if that is the case, it looks like they are moving in the right direction. He emphasized a desire for a sleek/modern design. Ms Burnett said with respect to design: Staff looked at conceptual plans and our initial comment is that it is not enough for this location, the City wants higher quality materials. She said the articulation is fine. Mr. Cape expressed cautioned on storefront glazing as it is too costly for this room rate Ms. Burnett said we are looking for a happy balance and where you place these elements is key -quality materials in the right place makes a difference. Commissioner Munoz said the architecture could be punched tip. Commissioner Fletcher said it must be upscale and modern for a gateway. He said he is not opposed to setting buildings back off of the street because of the height and if it helps with the feasibility of the restaurant. He said he would like it to come back for a Item C -4 PLANNING COMMISSION WORKSHOP t, MINUTES RANCHO DECEMBER 14, 2016 CUCAMONGA Page 5 workshop prior to going to the DRC Mr. Cape said they need to get their civil design (site layout) done before investing in the building design. He said they are happy to come back. Commissioner Munoz said he is concerned about the viability of the restaurant. He asked the applicant to work with staff to make it work there in the corner. Chairman Oaxaca agreed. He said they are proposing a significant structure. He said he wants the consistency on Haven Avenue but he would be amenable to pushing back some along 4th Street to allow for parking for the restaurant. Ms. Burnett reported that staff pushed the applicants. She confirmed the entire site is in the Haven Overlay and is a City gateway; a main corner with one chance to do it right. It is a high profile area and there is no chance with office development. She said staff worked with our DOIT team to do this massing study to get perspective to get it right. She asked the Commission for comment on the setbacks. A general discussion occurred whereby the Commissioners considered a possible site layout that considered the one row of parking and also a prior concept that would place one hotel perpendicular to 4th Street rather than the building being placed parallel to 4th Street -the parallel arrangement was requested by staff Commissioner Wimberly commented on the layout and viability of a restaurant and usable parking. He said he prefers the layout found on B-11 (denotes the 4th Street hotel flipped perpendicular with its short end to 4th street), Commissioner Oaxaca said he is open to an alternative to maintain the current orientation and push it back some (building on 4th Street would remain parallel to 4th Street). He said it is more important to him that both projects look consistent architecturally. Ms Burnett asked about the building adjacent to Haven Avenue. Commissioner Munoz said he is not opposed to what was proposed. He said the applicant should work with staff and keep to the regulations for the Haven Overly and work out the 4t" street building orientation. Commissioner Wimberly concurred that they meet the Overlay regulations. He said the Commission will weigh in after the standards and requirements are met. Commissioner Munoz said he likes the layout that parallels the street but he is not opposed to pushing back the buildings. He asked hotel #1 along Haven could stay the same but make hotel # 2 perpendicular to 4th to allow for more parking. He said keep Item C -5 PLANNING COMMISSION WORKSHOP MINUTES � Kcto lo DECEMBER 14, 2016 Ctx.,uuovGe Page 6 the Haven building close to Haven and work with stafl. Ms. Burnett summarized by noting page B11- Hotel 1 along Haven to remain as shown but flip Hotel 2 on its end perpendicular to 4th Street. She then asked for final comments on the Panattoni development. Commissioner Munoz said it looks good, the elevations are pretty good. Mr. LeBlanc said their next step could be to submit. He said the eyebrows and columns will be stainless steel; they are trying to get away from earth tones. Commissioner Fletcher said it looks nice and gives an office appearance. He suggested it be more modern; he asked for more glazing on the west side of the building. 11 IV. ADJOURNMENT 1, Lois J.

Item D —1 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT TIME EXTENSION DRC2016-01009 - WSI HIGHLAND INVESTMENTS, LLC January 25, 2017 Page 3 City's Subdivision Ordinance (Municipal Code Section 16.16.160) states that approved Tentative Tract Maps are valid for 3 years. The applicant may request up to five (5) 1-year extensions (Municipal Code Section 16.16.170), which must be approved by the Planning Commission. The Time Extension is being requested in order to provide additional time for the applicant to work toward recording the final map and preparing related improvement plans. The applicant is not requesting any changes to the approved map. C. Environmental Assessment: Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the City certified an Environmental Impact Report on July 21, 2004 (State Clearing House #2003081085) in connection with the City's approval of SUBTT14749. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, no subsequent or supplemental EIR or Negative Declaration is required in connection with subsequent discretionary approvals of the same project unless: (i) substantial changes are proposed to the project that indicate new or more severe impacts on the environment; (ii) substantial changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the project was previously reviewed that indicates new or more severe environmental impacts; or (iii) new important information shows the project will have new or more severe impacts than previously considered; or (iv) additional mitigation measures are now feasible to reduce impacts or different mitigation measures can be imposed to substantially reduce impacts. Staff has evaluated SUBTT14749 and concludes that substantial changes to the project or the circumstances surrounding the project have not occurred which would create new or more severe impacts than those evaluated in the previously certified EIR. In that the Time Extension is being requested in order to provide additional time for the applicant to work with Federal and State agencies to resolve the Etiwanda Creek drainage permitting issue that will determine the final design for the project. Staff further finds that the project will not have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previously certified EIR, not have more severe effects than previously analyzed, and that additional or different mitigation measures are not required to reduce the impacts of the project to a level of less -than -significant. In that the applicant does not propose any changes to the previously approved tentative tract map. Therefore, pursuant to CEQA, staff recommends that the Planning Commission concur with the staff determination that no additional environmental review is required in connection with the City's consideration of the Time Extension for Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749.

East - Conservation and Very Low Residential (.1-2 dwelling units per acre) — The land area east of the site is currently vacant and is the proposed site of Tentative Tract Map 16324 - Henderson Creek. C. General Plan Designations: Project Site - Very Low Residential (.1-2 dwelling units per acre) North - Flood Control/Utility Corridor and Hillside Residential South - Utility Corridor East - Conservation and Very Low Residential (.1-2 dwelling units per acre) West - Low Density Residential (2-4 dwelling units per acre) D. Site Characteristics: The proposed Tentative Tract Map is located within the Etiwanda North Specific Plan within the City's Sphere of Influence and occupies 168.77 acres of which 107.28 net acres will be developed with single-family residential (99.26), park area (3.1 acres), equestrian park (2.7 acres), equestrian trail (0.44 acres), and drainage channel (1.77 acres). The development would have a gross density of 1.59 dwelling units per acre, and a net density of 2.5 dwelling units per acre. The remaining 61.49 acres will continue to be used for flood control purposes. The proposed annexation action encompasses a total of 240 acres and includes the development site plus adjacent parcels owned by Southern California Edison and San Bernardino County Flood Control District. The project site is currently vacant and, until recently, supported relatively undisturbed native vegetation. In October of 2003, the Grand Prix fire burned the entire project site. Native vegetation could eventually regenerate on this site if left undeveloped. Several easements occur on -site, including two planned roadway right-of-ways and two public utility easements. The project property line extends to the centerline of the two planned roadways in the project vicinity including: 1) Etiwanda Avenue, which runs along the western property boundary; and 2) Item D —8 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2003-01051, DRC2003-00410, DRC2003-00409, SUBTT14749, DRC2003-00411 June 9, 2004 Page 3 East Avenue, which runs along the eastern property boundary. Two SCE public utility easements occur adjacent to the northern and southern boundaries of the site. Both easements are over 300 feet wide. ANALYSIS: A. General Plan and Etiwanda North Specific Plan Amendments: The General Plan and Etiwanda North Specific Plan (ENSP) Amendments are necessary to bring the project in to technical compliance with the proposed net density of 2.5 dwelling units per acre (1.59 dwelling units per acre gross density). It should be noted that the project site is designated three dwelling units per acre under the County's General Plan and zoning and, therefore, would have resulted in greater density and number of dwelling units than currently proposed. Also, the current density and lot sizes are consistent with the previously approved annexation and tract map for the Rancho Etiwanda Estates project immediately west of the subject site. The planned amendments result in acreage changes as follows: EXISTING GENERAL PLAN PROPOSED GENERAL PLAN EXISTING ENSP PROPOSED ENSP Very Low (118 Acres) Low (102.81 Acres) Very Low (118 Acres) Low (102.81 Acres) Conservation (2.85 Acres) Conservation (18.04 Acres) FC (25.64 Acres) RC (77.17 Acres) The proposed amendments accomplish the goals of the tract development while reflecting the intent of the San Bernardino County Flood Control District (SBCFCD) to create conservation areas relative to Etiwanda Creek. The circulation amendment portion of this Project is the elimination of the upper Loop Collector Street consistent with the previously approved Rancho Etiwanda Estates project to the west. This street is no longer needed for the following reasons: This development and Rancho Etiwanda Estates are gated communities with private streets and independent circulation. The establishment of the Etiwanda North Preserve and other conservation areas to the north has reduced the need to accommodate additional traffic circulation from the north. The circulation amendment will reduce public maintenance costs and reduce impacts to the nearby conservation areas. B. Tentative Tract Map: The project will provide a maximum of 269 single-family residences with a minimum lot size of 8,400 square feet and an average lot size of 11,600 square feet. Development is planned to occur in five phases and would span over a three-year period. A breakdown of proposed land uses is provided in Table 1. Existing roadways in the immediate project vicinity include Etiwanda Avenue, Wilson Avenue, and East Avenue. The extension of Etiwanda Avenue north to the project boundary along with the construction of Lower Crest Road will provide primary access. The construction of East Avenue north to Lower Crest Road will provide additional access. The Lower Crest Collector, which will be Item D —9 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2003-01051, DRC2003-00410, DRC2003-00409, SUBTT14749, DRC2003-00411 June 9, 2004 Page 4 located above the southern SCE utility power line corridor, will be the primary east to west thoroughfare outside the gated portion of the project. The timing and alignment of this street extension is being coordinated with the Rancho Etiwanda Estates project (located immediately west of the project site). The residential portion of the project will be gated, with the main gate located along Lower Crest Road. A secondary gate will be located at the intersection of Lower Crest Road and East Avenue. A third exit -only gate will be located at the terminus of the extension of Etiwanda Avenue north of Lower Crest. The interior roadway system will consist of private streets and will be privately maintained by a Homeowners Association, while the City will maintain the other road segments. Channels will be provided and designed to accommodate off -site flows from the area tributary from future channel extension. This will occur along the north side of this project and the Rancho Etiwanda Estates project. Drainage from the north will be intercepted and discharged into East Etiwanda Creek. A Fuel Modification Plan has also been prepared to assist in developing site -specific precautions for fire protection. The purpose of the Fuel Modification Plan is to provide a wildland fire hazard assessment, a long-term perimeter vegetative fuel modification and maintenance plan, and a long- term "firewise landscaping" and fuel modification plan for the landscaped area immediately surrounding all structures. C. Design Review Committee: The Design Review Committee (Fletcher, McPhail, Fong) reviewed the project on September 2, 2003. Staff explained the unique conceptual use and design of the Open Space parcels. The applicant provided conceptual designs based on criteria that had been provided by staff during earlier meetings. Staff indicated that the Conceptual Landscape Plan was designed in accordance with the Etiwanda North Specific Plan Guidelines pertaining to the "Lower Crest Collector," neighborhood entry monument, and the palette of street trees and slope planting materials. The Committee recommended approval of the project with no additional modifications. D. Park and Recreation Commission: The Park and Recreation Commission reviewed the Park Site Concept Plans associated with the project on November 20, 2003. Staff indicated that the proposed development included the creation of open space and recreational use on two parcels of land. One parcel, located on the southeast corner of the site on East Avenue, is being considered for an indoor Equestrian Center. The other parcel, located on the southwest corner of the site on Etiwanda Avenue, is being explored by staff as a trailhead and information kiosk site for the North Etiwanda Preserve. The Commission discussed several issues including: adequacy of parking being provided at the proposed equestrian center; trails within the proposed development; whether the development is part of the equestrian overlay area; whether the two parcels are adjacent to public streets; how the equestrian center correlates with the General Plan Master Plan; the possibility of SCE using their easements; concern that motorists might be unaware of horse riders, and concern with the City's ability to maintain the equestrian facility. It was indicated to the Commission that parking spaces would be designed to accommodate trucks with horse trailers; no trails were planned within the development; the project site was zoned within an equestrian overlay area with a $1,000 per dwelling mitigation fee being proposed as provided for under the Etiwanda North Specific Plan (See attached Exhibit "D" pages II- 24 through II-26 of the ENSP for reference). The Commission indicated that the project was approved in concept following the addressing of two issues: 1) Land Use, and 2) preparation of an operational model for the Center.

Development Agreement: The Development Agreement has been prepared in order to address project -specific improvements, fees, and other development standards and expectations for the benefit of the property owner and the City. The Development Agreement allows the applicant to identify all improvements and fees that will be required by the City upon annexation. The Development Agreement has been reviewed by the City Attorney as to form and content. The basic points of the Development Agreement are summarized below: Term of the Agreement: 10 years 2. A Homeowner's Association must be formed to assume responsibility and maintenance of the gates, common area streets, drainage facilities interim detention basins, utility easements, streetlights, sidewalks, landscaping (including the north side of "Lower Crest Collector") and walls throughout the project. 3. The property owner shall design and construct improvements to the City Community Trail network along the Etiwanda Creek levee, and parallel to the northerly extension of Etiwanda Avenue along the west project boundary, in accordance with City Standard Drawing No. 1004. 4. The straight sections on interior streets (Street W) may be greater than 800 feet because the project is a private gated community, thereby limiting traffic impacts from any other development through the project. 5. All interior streets that have driveway access to single-family residential lots may be designed with a 50-foot right-of-way utilizing a rolled curb; all other streets within the tract shall have a 60-foot right-of-way with a City standard 6-inch curb face. 6. The property owner shall 1) improve Etiwanda Avenue as a Secondary Arterial, from the north boundary of Tract 16072 to "Lower Crest Collector;" 2) construct East Avenue Collector Street improvements from the north boundary of Tract 16072 to "Lower Crest Collector;" and 3) construct Lower Crest Collector Street improvements along the entire length of the project site. These improvements shall be completed prior to the first release of occupancy, or to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. Fees: The ,property owner shall pay a sum totaling $269,000.00 (based upon $1,000.00 per unit) for equestrian mitigation purposes; The Property Owner shall pay a sum totaling $1,775,400.00 ($6,600.00 per unit) for park purposes; and In exchange for construction of landscaping improvements along the south side of Lower Crest Collector," the property owner is not required to pay City Beautification Fee of $0.20 per square foot for residential construction. 8. The project shall be designed in accordance with the Low Residential District of the Etiwanda North Specific Plan. Item D —11 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2003-01051, DRC2003-00410, DRC2003-00409, SUBTT14749, DRC2003-00411 . June 9, 2004 Page 6 9. Open Space Transfer Plan: The Open Space Transfer Plan establishes a requirement that the property owner transfer a minimum of 164 acres of land to the County of San Bernardino Special Districts OS-1 or other suitable non-profit agency as determined by the City Planner, for permanent open space and habitat preservation, along with funding (in an amount to be determined by the receiving agency), to provide for long-term maintenance of said land. This shall be accomplished prior to recording of the Final Tract Map. 10. The Development Agreement establishes timeframes for completion of key infrastructure and community amenities, including the following: a) All perimeter landscaping, including the Upper Etiwanda Neighborhood Monumentation, fencing, signage, and landscaping shall be completed prior to release of occupancy of the 100th dwelling, and b) All Master Plan storm drain improvements shall be completed prior to the release of occupancy for the first dwelling in the project. Annexation: The proposed annexation would include the 268.77-acre project site and adjacent parcels owned by SBCFCD for a total of 240 acres, located north of the SCE corridor between Etiwanda Avenue and East Avenue. City staff will forward the annexation application and all associated documentation to the Local Agency Formation Commission following City Council certification of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and approval of the project. G. Environmental Impact Report: An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was prepared to address all actions that are anticipated for the review and approval of the project, including the actions by the Planning Commission and City Council and the Local Agency Formation Commission as well as actions that may be required by SBCFCD, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Army Corp of Engineers, Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), and California Department of Fish and Game, as applicable. Based on the findings and conclusions of the Initial Study that was prepared for the project, the following potentially significant environmental impacts were analyzed within the EIR: Land Use and Planning, Population and Housing, Earth Resources, Water Resources, Transportation and Circulation, Air Quality, Biological Resources, Energy and Mineral Resources, Hazards, Noise, Public Services, Utilities, Aesthetics, Cultural Resources, Agricultural Resources, and Recreation. A summary of all of the project -related impacts and the recommended mitigation measures are provided in Table ES-1 of the EIR. The EIR concluded that upon implementation of project design features and all recommended mitigation measures, short-term and long-term impacts to air quality would remain significant. Additionally, direct impacts to Biological Resources related to loss of sage scrub habitat dominated by white sage, and impacts to Aesthetics related to transforming the existing natural terrain into a developed planned community and associated light and glare. The Project will also contribute incrementally to cumulatively considerable impacts related to land use, flood control, water quality from urban runoff, loss of alluvial fan sage scrub, hazardous material dumping, congestion of evacuation routes, overcrowded schools, inadequate utilities, and loss of views. Based on these findings, the City is required to adopt a Statement of Overriding Considerations in accordance with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 21081. The statement is attached to the Resolution of Approval.

A. RECITALS. Traigh Pacific (the "Applicant") seeks approval of a series of actions related to the annexation of land from unincorporated San Bernardino County into the City of Rancho Cucamonga, the approval of a General Plan Amendment, Etiwanda North Specific Plan Amendment, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749, and associated Development Agreement. The actions also include the development of approximately 168.77 acres with 269 single-family housing units (99.26 acres), park area (3.1 acres), equestrian park (2.7 acres), equestrian trail (0.44 acres), and drainage channel (1.77 acres). The development would have a gross density of 1.59 dwelling units per acre, and a net density of 2.5 dwelling units per acre. The remaining 61.49 acres will continue to be used for flood control purposes. The proposed annexation action encompasses a total of 240 acres and includes the development site plus adjacent parcels owned by Southern California Edison and San Bernardino County Flood Control District. These series of actions and approvals are hereinafter defined in this Resolution as the "Project." 2. The Applicant has submitted the following applications relating to the Project: Annexation DRC2003-01051, General Plan Land Use Amendment DRC2003- 00410, Etiwanda North Specific Plan Amendment DRC2003-00409, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749, and Development Agreement DRC2003-00411 (collectively the "Project Applications"). These Project Applications, as well as the appeal of the Planning Commission's approval of Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749, constitute the matters involving the Project, which are submitted to the City Council for decision and action. EXHIBIT D Item D —14 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 2 of 42 The property to the north of the subject site is designated Flood Control/Utility Corridor and Hillside Residential and is comprised of vacant land, utility corridors, and scattered single-family residences. The property to the west is designated Low Residential (2 to 4 dwelling units per acre) and is the site of the previously approved Rancho Etiwanda Estates. The property to the east is designated Conservation and Very Low Residential (.1-2 dwelling units per acre) and is the proposed site of Tentative Tract Map 16324 - Henderson Creek. The property to the south is designated Flood Control/Utility Corridor, Conservation, and Very Low Residential and is comprised of a SCE power line corridor, and the Etiwanda Creek Flood Control basins and conservation area. 4. On June 9, 2004, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a duly noticed public hearing on the Project, and after receiptof public testimony, closed the hearing on that date. On June 9, 2004, the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 04-77, recommending approval of General Plan Amendment DRC2003-00410 along with other associated applications. 5. On June 12, 2004, Craig A. Sherman, attorney for the Spirt of the Sage Council and the Habitat Trust for Wildlife, Inc., filed an appeal of the Planning Commission's approval of Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749. 6. On July 21, 2004, the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a public hearing on the Final EIR and the Project, at which time all interested parties were given an opportunity to be heard and to present evidence regarding the Final EIR and the Project, and after the receipt of public testimony, closed the hearing. 7. 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 CityCouncil of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows: 1. This 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 facts and information contained in the record of this Project, the City Council makes the following findings and statements, and takes the following actions, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et. seq.): a. The City of Rancho Cucamonga, acting as the lead agency, prepared the Draft Environmental Impact Report ("EIR") for the Project, including certain technical appendices (the "Appendices") to the Draft EIR (State Clearinghouse No. 2003081085). The Draft EIR was circulated fora 45-day public review and comment period from Decembers, 2003 through January 28, 2004. Comments were received during that period and written Item D —15 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 3 of 42 responses were prepared and sent to all persons and entities submitting comments. Those comments and the responses thereto have been included in the Final EIR, as well as the revisions to the Draft EIR. Those documents, together with the Draft EIR and Appendices, comprise the Final EIR. b. The City Council finds that the Final EIR was completed pursuant to CEQA, and the State Guidelines for Implementation of CEQA,14 California Code of Regulations, Section 15000, et. seq. ("the Guidelines"). By Resolution No. 04-240, the City Council has certified the Final EIR as being in compliance with the requirements of CEQA. c. The City Council finds that the Final EIR was presented to the City Council and that the City Council reviewed and considered the information in the Final EIR and has reached its own conclusions with respect to the Project and as to whether and how to approve the various components of the project approvals. d. The City Council finds that the Final EIR represents the independent judgment of the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga and adequately addresses the impacts of the Project and imposes appropriate mitigation measures for the Project. e. Public Resources Code Section 21081 provides that no public agency shall approve or carry out a project for which an environmental impact report has been completed which identifies one or more significant environmental effects unless the public agency makes one or more of the following findings with respect to each significant effect: I. Changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the project, which mitigate or avoid the significant environmental effects thereof as identified in the completed environmental impact report. it. Such changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another public agency and such changes have been adopted by such agency or can and should be adopted by such other agency. M. Specific economic, social or other considerations make infeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the environmental impact report. The City Council finds, based upon the Final EIR, public comments, public agency comments, and the entire record before it, that the Project may create significant impacts in the areas of Earth Resources, Water Resources, Transportation/Circulation, Air Quality, Biological Resources, Hazards, Noise, Public Services, Utilities, Aesthetics, and Cultural Resources. However, changes or alterations have been required in, or incorporated into the Project, which will mitigate and in some cases, avoid the significant impacts. The specific changes and alterations required, and a Item D —16 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 4 of 42 brief explanation of the rationale for the findings with regard to each impact, are contained in the "CEQA Findings" for the Project (Exhibit "F" to the July 21, 2004 City Council Staff Report) and are incorporated herein by reference. In addition to the rationale and explanation contained in the "CEQA Findings," the City Council makes the following additional findings regarding the impacts of the Project on the resources and services listed in this paragraph: Earth Resources. The Final EIR finds that development of the Project would expose people and structures to risks associated with seismic ground shaking produced by numerous regional faults. Additionally, development of the project would require removal of vegetation to prepare for grading; this would create a short-term increased potential for topsoil erosion. Potential erosion in the long-term would result from increased surface runoff rates due to road paving and construction of impermeable structures. Mitigation measures are imposed which require a detailed geologic and geotechnical investigation for each lot prior to the grading of the Project site. Specifically, the developer must: demonstrate that each lot is buildable and complies with recommendations and specifications found in the geotechnical investigation report included in Appendix C of the Final EIR (Mitigation Measure 3-1); identify potential geologic and soil limitations and recommend appropriate engineering and design measures to adequately protect structures and inhabitants (Mitigation Measure 3-2); and identify these construction measures on applicable grading plans, and implement them to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. Further, mitigation measures are imposed on the project that require preparation and approval of a Dust Control Plan and a Landscape and Irrigation Plan to reduce the likelihood of erosion (Mitigation Measures 3-4 and 3-5). Based on these mitigation measures, and the additional ones contained in the Final EIR, the City Council finds that the effects of seismic shaking on persons and structures and the possibility of erosion will be mitigated to a level of less than significant. 11. Water Resources. The Final EIR identifies that conversion of the Project site to urban uses would increase the amount of sediment, suspended debris, landscape maintenance or associated chemicals (e.g., fertilizers, herbicides, etc.), and materials related to automotive wear (e.g., tire rubber, oil, antifreeze, etc.) that would reach the local drainage system due to run-off caused by grading or by being washed off streets during storm events or street -sweeping activities. Mitigation measures imposed on the applicant would require the Project developer to apply for and receive a National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit and, if necessary, to obtain Clean Water Act Section 401 and 404 permits (for water quality certification for dredge and fill operations); additionally, the developer will be required to implement all applicable Best Management Practices (BMPs) to prevent construction of the Project from polluting surface and ground waters. Item D —17 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 5 of 42 The City Council finds that implementation of this mitigation measure will mitigate impacts on water quality to a level of less than insignificant. Additionally, the Final EIR identifies that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has Identified the Project site as within a flood zone designated "Flood Zone D." Mitigation measures will require the developer to install a revetment along the East Etiwanda Channel adjacent to the Project site, and implement on- and off -site drainage system improvements outlined in the Project Drainage Study (Appendix D of the draft EIR). The City Council finds that the revetment and drainage improvements will reduce flood impacts associated with the Project to a level of less than significant. iii. Transportation and Circulation. The Final EIR indicates that the proposed Project would increase vehicle trips and impact the level of service along arterial streets and intersections; specifically, the Project is anticipated to generate a total of 2,956 daily vehicle trips at build -out. Further, it is assumed that at build -out 68 percent of the Project traffic would enter/exit the site along Etiwanda Avenue, while 32 percent would use East Avenue; this distribution would cause some roads to be more intensely affected than others. Additionally, the Final EIR found that the level of service at the intersection of Etiwanda and Highland Avenues could be reduced to a "D" level during the morning peak hourat full build - out. Mitigation Measures are imposed to require the developer to contribute a fair share to the traffic signal mitigation program of the County of San Bernardino and/or the City of Rancho Cucamonga to help fund the construction of traffic signals at the intersections of: Day Creek Boulevard/Banyan Avenue; Day Creek Boulevard/SR-210 West -bound ramp; Day Creek Boulevard/SR 210 East -bound ramp; Etiwanda Avenue/Banyan Avenue; Etiwanda Avenue/Wilson Avenue; and East Avenue/Banyan Avenue. Further, the developer will be required to pay "fair share" contribution towards off -site impacts to linked roadways and intersections as outlined in the Project traffic report; this "fair share" amount is approximately $63,818 as of the date of the traffic study. The City Council finds that based on these mitigation measures, traffic at the study intersections will be reduced to operate at a level of service of D or better (with all but one intersection operating at level of service C or better) and that the impacts of the Project on Traffic and Circulation will be mitigated to a level of less than significant. iv. Air Quality. The Final EIR identifies that the Project may create significant and unavoidable impacts on Air Quality. Specifically, the Final EIR identifies that emissions from construction -related activities are likely to exceed the threshold of significance specified by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). These impacts are short-term and can cause nuisance impacts to adjacent land uses in the local area by way of fugitive dust produced by grading of the site. In addition, construction -related emissions, particularly from architectural coatings (painting) and off -road diesel equipment, are anticipated to produce Item D —18 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 6 of 42 . significant levels of reactive organic compounds (ROC) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) that would exceed SCAQMD thresholds of significance and result in significant short-term air pollution impacts. Comprehensive mitigation measures (Mitigation Measures 6-1 - 6-10) are imposed on the Project which will require various dust control measures, emission control measures, and off -site actions. Included in those measures are requirements to ensure that all construction equipment -is properly serviced and maintained and that trucks are not left idling for prolonged periods (i.e., in excess of 10 minutes), reestablishment of ground cover through seeding and watering, phased grading to prevent the susceptibility of large areas to erosion over extended periods of time, suspension of grading operations during periods of high wind (i.e., wind speeds exceeding 25 mph), and regular washing and sweeping of the site. The Final EIR also indicates that the Project would produce long- term impacts on Air Quality as a result of the additional external vehicle trips that will be generated, and their attendant production of NO, and PM10 in excess of SCAQMD standards. Further, secondary impact potential would derive from energy consumption by on -site residential heaters, stoves, water heaters, and similar consumptive appliances. Mitigation measures imposed on the Project to reduce long-term impacts include requiring the developer to demonstrate that all residential structures have incorporated high-efficiency/low-polluting heating, air conditioning, appliances, and water heaters (Mitigation Measure 6-11), and that all residential structures have incorporated thermal pane windows and weather-stripping (Mitigation Measure 6-12). Further, the developerwill be required to make a fair share contribution to a "park and ride" facility along the 1-15 or 1-10 freeways, as well as construct a bus stop/shelter at the trailhead park, if directed by OmniTrans. The City Council finds that with the implementation of the recommended mitigation measures directed at both short- and long-term impacts, emissions will be reduced and the Project's contribution to regional emission of criterial pollutants will be minimized. However, the City Council finds that despite the imposition of all of these comprehensive mitigation requirements, the Project will produce significant short- and long-term impacts on Air Quality due to emissions, and that these impacts will remain significant after mitigation. v. Biological Resources. The Final EIR indicates that, prior to the Grand Prix fire in October 2003, the Project site contained approximately 109 acres of sage scrub (including white sage), along with California buckwheat, California filago, valley lessingia, popcorn flower, and common phaceiia; the Project will eliminate this vegetation through development of the area. Further, the Project will impact sensitive plant Species present on the site (as determined before the 2003 wildfire) including Plummer's mariposa lily, Pious daisy, and four separate types of spineflowers (Ramona, prostrate, California, and Parry's). Development of the site will also impact wildlife corridors and will remove habitat that supports a number of sensitive species that were either Item D —19 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 7 of 42 observed onsite or have a moderate to high potential to occur onsite, including the sharp -shinned hawk, Southern California rufous -crowned sparrow, red -shouldered hawk, white-tailed kite, northern harrier, Cooper's hawk, San Diego horned lizard, and orange -throated whiptail. The Final EIR indicated that the California gnatcatcher (a federally listed threatened species) has not been observed on -site and has a low probability of occurring on the site'due to the type of vegetation present. Also, the Final EIR found that while a portion of the Project site (the Etiwanda Creek channel) is within the historical range of the endangered San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat (SBKR), since the creek channel is not proposed for development, the Projectwill not cause direct impacts to the SBKR. The Final EIR further found that development of the site will remove 0.48 acres of land in four small drainages that are under Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) jurisdiction, but that none of these areas is considered a wetland. The Final EIR found that the Project is not consistent with the goals of the North Etiwanda Open Space and Habitat Preservation Program (NEOSHPP) since it does not include anyon-site preservation of open space lands. Mitigation measures have been imposed on the project to require the Project developer to acquire and convey to the County approximately 164 acres of land as off -site mitigation land. This 164-acre area is intended to accomplish a 1:5 to 1 ratio to mitigate for the loss of the approximately 109 acres of sage scrub and to mitigate the potential loss of habitat for sensitive plants and animal species. The City finds that the recommended mitigation measures will help reduce potentially significant impacts regarding the loss of habitat, but that the impacts will remain significant after mitigation. vi. Hazards. The Final EIR identifies that the Project would expose people and structures to potential hazards due to the possibility of hazardous materials spills on nearby state highways, and due to the minor use of chemicals and other materials typical of suburban uses. Additionally, the Project would expose more people and structures to potential wildfire hazards, and would expose more people to potentially dangerous wildlife/human encounters. Mitigation measures imposed will require submission of a plan detailing proper clean-up efforts for any hazardous or toxic substance that is discovered or released during construction (Mitigation Measure 9-1); development of fuel modification zones, and the requirement of "firewise" landscaping and the use of fire-resistant building materials to reduce fire hazards (Mitigation Measures 9-2 - 9-4); and the posting of signs warning of the potential risk of wildlifelhuman interactions on the site (Mitigation Measure 9-8). The City Council finds that after implementation of these measures, potentially significant impacts relating to Hazards will be reduced to a level of less than significant. vii. Noise. The Final EIR identifies the likelihood of short-term impacts on ambient noise levels during construction of the Project. The primary source of construction noise is heavy equipment associated with construction activities; earth -moving equipment is anticipated to create Item D —20 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 8 of 42 noise up to 90-dB. A mitigation measure has been imposed that will require the construction contractors to adhere to the City's Development Code for hours of construction activity— 6:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday, with no construction to take place on Sundays or holidays (Mitigation Measure 10-2). Based on this mitigation measure, the City Council finds that•the short term noise impacts from the Project will be reduced to less than significant levels. The Final EIR also identified that noise levels would increase in the long-term due to additional motor vehicle noise and from general human activity. In the opening year (2005), noise levels at fifty feet from the centerline of area roadways would range from a low of 58.1 CNEL along Wilson Avenue east of Etiwanda Avenue to a high of 78.3 CNEL along Highland Avenue east of Etiwanda Avenue. A mitigation measure will be imposed to require the developer to document that exterior residential areas will have exterior noise levels of less than 65 dB CNEL (Mitigation Measure 10-5), and that interior living area noise levels are less than 45 dB CNEL (Mitigation Measure 10-6). Further, the developer will be required to incorporate site designs and measures to help reduce proposed noise levels over the long-term. The City Council finds that based on these mitigation measures, the potential noise impacts of the Project on current and future residents will be mitigated to a level of less than significant. viii. Public Services. The Final EIR identifies that due to population increases associated with the Project, the proposed Project would incrementally increase the need for public services in the areas of fire protection, police protection, schools, libraries, medical services, and roads. A mitigation measure is imposed to require the developer to pay all legally established public service fees, including police, fire, schools, parks, and libraryfees (Mitigation Measure 11-1). Additionally, in order to reduce the number of fire incidents requiring response by the City's Fire Department, the project developerwould be required to obtain approval from the Fire Department with regard to adequate fire flow and installation of acceptable fire-resistant structural materials in project buildings (Mitigation Measure 11-3). Additionally, the developer will be required to post a bond in an amount sufficient to ensure installation and maintenance of public and private roads, and drainage facilities necessary for each phase of the project (Mitigation Measure 11-5). The City Council finds that the imposition and implementation of these mitigation measures will mitigate the Project's impacts on Public Services to a level of less than significant. ix. Utilities. The Final EIR identifies thatthe Projectwould create potentially significant impacts as a result of new residential water requirements of approximately 602,819 gallons of water per day; this water would be provided from an existing two million gallon water reservoir via an existing water main, however, as growth continues in the Project area, additional offsite water storage facilities would be required. Further, the Final EIR indicates that based on an estimate of 270 gallons of Item D —21 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 9 of 42 wastewater per unit per day being produced, the Project would require construction of a sewer main to transport the wastewater to an existing sewage treatment plant. Additionally, the Project would generate the need for increased electricity, natural gas, and telephone and television cables, and would increase the amount of solid waste produced. A mitigation measure imposed requires the contribution of funds for sewer service (Mitigation Measure 12-1). Further mitigation measures require submission of development plans to Southern California Edison, the Gas Company, and Verizon in order to facilitate engineering design and. construction of improvements necessary to provide electrical, natural gas, and telephone service to the Project; these companies must also provide "will -serve" letters in order for building permits to issue. The City Council finds that imposition of these mitigation measures will reduce the impacts of the Project on Utilities to a level of less than significant. x. Aesthetics. The Final EIR identifies that the Project may create significant and unavoidable impacts on Aesthetics. In the short-term, the landscape would be altered by grading and clearing, and views of the Project site would include the heavy construction equipment and machinery used to prepare the Project site for construction of new homes. Long-term impacts would occur due to a fundamental change in the visual and aesthetic character of the area, and would transform the existing natural terrain into a developed and planned community. Additionally, the presence of homes would mean more lighting at night, as well as increased glare due to additional windows in the community. Mitigation measures will require that outdoor lighting comply with the requirements of the Etiwanda North Specific Plan design guidelines and the City's General Plan (Mitigation Measure 13-1), and that a detailed landscaping and wall treatment plan be prepared (Mitigation Measure 13- 5). Even with the imposition and implementation of these and other mitigation measures, the City Council finds that the impact of the Project on Aesthetics will remain significant after mitigation. xi. Cultural Resources. The Final EIR identifies that while the existence of paleontological resources is unlikely on the Project site, such resources may be discovered during construction of the Project. Also, one historic archeological site was previously recorded on the property, CA-SBR- 3131 H. This prior survey found what appeared to be the remains of a construction camp used by the Etiwanda Water Company in the 1880s; the structure consisted of rock walls, hand -forged metal barrel hoops and nails, barbed wire, and glass fragments. Mitigation measures imposed require that a qualified paleontologist conduct a preconstruction field survey of the Project site and submit a report of findings and specific recommendations for further mitigation measures (Mitigation Measure 14-1). Should any prehistoric archaeological resources be found before or during grading, a qualified archaeologist would be retained to monitor construction activities, and take appropriate measures to protect or preserve the resources. The City Council finds that with the implementation of these mitigation measures, the Project will have a less than significant impact on paleontological, archaeological, and historical resource's. Item D —22 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 10 of 42 xii. Cumulative Impacts — Air Quality, Biological Resources, and Aesthetics. The Final EIR provides that this Project, together with the construction of other development projects in the vicinity, would create cumulative'short-term impacts to air quality during construction. This Project would also create a significant cumulative impact to regional air quality due to additional vehicle emissions adding incremental pollutants within the South Coast Air Basin. With respect to biological resources, the Final EIR concluded that the Project would contribute to cumulatively considerable biological impacts with loss of habitat and restriction of wildlife movement in the fan area due to encroachment of human structures and activities. With respect to aesthetics, the proposed project will contribute incrementally to cumulatively considerable aesthetic impacts related to the visual character of the area going from largely vacant, rural terrain to low density suburban development. The City Council finds, based on the Final EIR, that after implementation of the proposed mitigation measures, the following impacts associated with the proposed Project would remain significant: air quality (short-term impacts, and short and long-term cumulative impacts), biological resources related to the loss of habitat, and aesthetics related to short-term views (i.e. construction activities and dust) and long-term views related to transforming the existing natural terrain into a residential community. The Final EIR describes a range of alternatives to the Project that mightfulfill basic objectives of the Project. These alternatives include the required "No Project -No Development" alternative, and the 'Rural Density Alterative," development under the existing land use designation. Other alternatives that were considered and rejected included the alternative location alternative and the alternative land use alternative. As set forth below, the alternatives identified in the Final EIR are not feasible because they would not achieve the basic objectives of the Project or would do so only to a much smaller degree and, therefore, leave unaddressed the significant economic, infrastructure, and General Plan goals that the Project is intended to accomplish, and are thus infeasible due to social and economic considerations, and/or they are infeasible because they would not eliminate the adverse environmental impacts of the proposed Project. Accordingly, each of the alternatives is infeasible. In making this finding, the City Council determines as follows: The objectives of the Project are: a) To be consistent with, and implement, the established policies and goals of the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan, Etiwanda North Specific Plan, City Development Code, and all other City development guidelines; b) Annexation of approximately 240 acres including the 168.77-acre Project site and adjacent utility easements and corridors into the City of Rancho Cucamonga; Item D —23 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 11 of 42 c) To Integrate the Project with the character of the surrounding neighborhoods and establish a development that results in logical, coordinated growth; d) To establish a Project -wide circulation system that meets regional and local transportation needs and accommodates both vehicles and pedestrians; e) To provide a system of public/community facilities, including trails, open space areas, and landscaping to support the residents of the Project and surrounding area in an efficient and timely manner; f) To provide backbone public infrastructure (i.e., roads, utilities) to serve Project residents and the surrounding community; g) To minimize impacts to, and generate revenues in excess of costs for. various public service agencies; and h) To provide quality housing opportunities compatible with existing and planned development that responds to market demands. ii) Under the "No Project -No Development Alternative" the project site would remain vacant which would avoid all significant project specific impacts, although cumulative impacts including traffic, noise, and air quality would eventually occur, but not to the same degree as if the proposed Project were built. This alternative would eliminate essentially all of the adverse impacts of the proposed Project and is, therefore, an environmentally superior alternative. This alternative does not meet the Project's basic objectives of developing a residential project consistent with the General Plan land use designation for the site. iii) Under the "No Project — Open Space Alternative" the site would remain vacant but be acquired, fenced, and maintained for open space and biological habitat as part of the NEOSHPP plan. This alternative would avoid all the significant impacts of developing the property, however, cumulative impacts including traffic, noise, and air quality, will eventually occur regardless of whetherthe site is developed or preserved, although perhaps not to the same degree as with the proposed Project. This is an environmentally superior alternative but does not meet the Project's basic objectives, and indeed all other objectives, of developing a project consistent with the General Plan land use designation for the site. iv) Under the "Reduced Intensity Alternative" almost all of the significant or potentially significant impacts associated with the proposed projectwould be eliminated. The remaining significant impact (i.e., construction emissions) could probably not be eliminated or significantly reduced by the implementation of any feasible alternative or mitigation measures at this time, unless the project were to support all custom lots of one acre or more where only building pads are graded when needed. However, the Item D —24 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 12 of 42 Project fiscal report indicates that fewer, larger residential lots/units would not generate sufficient public revenues to offset costs to provide services. While this alternative is environmentally superior to the proposed Project, it does not meet the Project's economic objectives of developing a residential project that has a positive cost/benefit ratio for the City and generates a reasonable return on investment. Also, since this alternative does not fully implement the City's goal of providing adequate park facilities for City residents. v) The "Modified Site Plan Alternative" would create a 300-foot wide buffer along the west bank of the East Etiwanda Creek to better buffer wildlife movement and create more open space. It would cluster the residential development in the southwestern portion of the site and would have 200 units with a minimum lot size of 6,000 square feet and a height limit of one story. It would eliminate the significant impacts of the proposed project -related long-term air quality (NOx and ROG emissions). However, potentially significant impacts related to short-term air pollutant emissions (ROG) and loss of biological resources would remain. Also, this alternative does not meet the Project's economic objectives of developing a residential project that has a positive cost/benefit ratio for the City and generates a reasonable return on investment. This alternative is marginally superior to the proposed Project in terms of environmental impacts, but it does not meet the Project objectives. vi) The "Rural Density Alterative" would development the site under the City's currently designated of Very Low density residential (VL) which allows a maximum of 2 units per acre of developable land with minimum 20,000 square'foot lots. This alternative would locate approximately 75 units on 37 acres in the southern portion of the site, while the remaining 70 acres would be set aside as open space and biological habitat. This alternative would eliminate the significant impacts of the proposed Project related to biological resources related to loss of alluvial fan habitat and long-term air quality from NOx and ROG emissions. This alternative still has significant impacts related to short-term air pollutant emissions (ROG) and does not provide the benefits of two parks. Also, this alternative does not meet the Project's economic objectives of developing a residential project that has a positive cost/benefit ratio for the City and generates a reasonable return on investment. As such, it does not meet the Project's goals. This alternative is environmentally superior to the proposed Project, but it does not meet the Project objectives. Mitigation measures described in the Mitigation Monitoring Program will avoid or substantially lessen the potentially significant environmental effects of the Project. Further, the environmental, physical, social, economic and other benefits of the Project, as set forth in this section and in the "CEQA Findings" for the Project (Exhibit "F" to the July 21, 2004 City Council Staff Report), which is incorporated herein by this reference, outweigh any Item D —25 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 13 of 42 unavoidable, significant, adverse impacts that may occur as a result of the Project, including short-term impacts on air quality from construction -related emissions and cumulative impacts to air quality related to vehicle emissions; impacts to biological resources related to removal of habitat; and short-term impacts to aesthetics (i.e. construction dust obscuring views) and long-term impacts to aesthetics (changes to the natural terrain). Therefore, due to overriding benefits of the Project and because the alternatives identified in the Final El are not feasible, as discussed in paragraph j above, the City Council hereby finds that any unavoidable impacts of the Project, including the mitigated but unavoidable impacts to short-term and long-term impacts on air quality and aesthetics, and project related and cumulative impacts to biological resources, are acceptable based on the findings contained herein and in the "CEQA Findings" for the Project. This determination shall constitute a statement of overriding considerations within the meaning of CEQA and is based on any one of the following environmental and other benefits of the Project identified in the Final EIR and the record of the City Council's proceeding: i) Provision for the use of land consistent with the established policies and goals of the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan, Etiwanda North Specific Plan, City Development Code, and all other City Development guidelines; ii) Annexation of approximately 240 acres including the 168.77-acre Project site and adjacent utility easements and corridors into the City of Rancho Cucamonga; III) Integration of the Project with the character of the surrounding neighborhoods and establishment of a development that results in logical, coordinated growth; iv) Establishment of a Project -wide circulation system that meets regional and local transportation needs and accommodates both vehicles and pedestrians; v) Provision of a system of public/community facilities, including trails, open space areas, and landscaping to support the residents of the Project and surrounding area in an efficient and timely manner; vi) Provision of backbone public infrastructure (i.e., roads, utilities) to serve Project residents and the surrounding community; vii) Minimization of impacts to, and generation of revenues in excess of costs for, various public service agencies; and viii) Provision of quality housing opportunities compatible with existing and planned development that responds to market demands. ix) The addition of housing units in accomplishment of the Citys Housing Element Goals and fulfillment of regional housing needs. Item D —26 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 14 of 42 x) City control over the developing lands on the City's perimeter. A) Advancement of the regional trail system by the links to be completed by the Project. The mitigation measures in the Final EIR that correspond to the environmental impacts which may result from the Project are hereby adopted and made a condition of approval of, or incorporated into, the Project. The City Council also hereby adopts the "Mitigation Monitoring Plan" attached as Exhibit "H" to the July 21, 2004 City Council Staff Report for this Project. The Mitigation Monitoring Plan will be used to monitor compliance with the mitigation measures and conditions that have been adopted or made a condition of Project approval as set forth in this Section of this Resolution and in the Mitigation Monitoring Plan. k. Pursuant to provisions of the California Public Resources Code Section 21089(b), the findings contained in this Resolution shall not be operative, vested or final until all required filing fees assessed pursuant to California Fish and Game Code Section 711.4, together with any required handling charges, are paid to the County Clerk of the County of San Bernardino. 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Council during the above -referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in Sections 1.and 2 above, this Council hereby finds and concludes as follows: a. The Tentative Tract Map is consistent with the General Plan, any applicable specific plans, and the Development Code. The density, design and development standards of the Tentative Tract Map are consistent with the City's General Plan, as amended by DRC2003-00410, and with the Etiwanda North Specific Plan, as amended by DRC2003-00409. The Tentative Tract Map is also consistent with the General Plan's intention of extending the low density image of Old Etiwanda into the area as provided in General Plan Policy 2.4.4.5. b. The design or improvements of the Tentative Tract Map is consistent with the General Plan, any applicable specific plans, and the Development Code. The proposed development is designed to comply with the design theme imposed for North Etiwanda as specified in the Etiwanda North Specific Plan. Specifically, the project will provide two equestrian -oriented parks and horse trails, and the design standards for landscaping, walls, fencing, lighting and community entries comply with the overall thematic design for the North Etiwanda area of the City. c. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed. The site is located in proximity to existing roadways and infrastructure. The tract is designed to address existing topographical and geological conditions and to achieve compliance with existing legal, biological and geological limitations of the site. Based on the whole record, the City Council finds that the site is physically suitable for the proposed residential housing development. Item D —27 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 15 of 42 d. The site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development. The project will have an average density of 1.9 dwelling units per acre for the entire project and will comply with the density restrictions imposed by the existing General Plan and Etiwanda North Specific Plan. The lots would range from 14,024 square feet to 45,755 square feet. These sizes are compatible with the surrounding developed areas and with the physical conditions and limitations on the site. e. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage and avoidable injury to humans and wildlife or their habitat. Based on extensive mitigation measures relating to native plants, sensitive species and wildlife, the impact of the project on biological resources is determined to be mitigated to a level of less than significant. Further, the mitigation measures related to seismic shaking, fires, wind and other conditions are deemed to be sufficient to avoid substantial injury to humans. The Tentative Tract Map is not likely to cause serious public health problems. As specified in prior sections of this Resolution, conditions and mitigation measures have been imposed that will reduce risks from seismic activities, fires, winds and other hazards and, based on these conditions and restrictions, the City Council finds that the project will not cause serious public health problems. g. The design of the Tentative Tract Map will not conflict with any easement acquired by the public at large, now of record, for access through or use of the property within the proposed subdivision. Based on the evidence in the record of this matter, the Project has been designed to recognize and protect existing conservation areas and open space resources maintained by public entities as well as utility easements and other existing private and public easements and restrictions imposed on the Project site. 4. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in Sections 1, 2 and 3 above, this Council hereby denies the appeal of the Planning Commission's approval of Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749 and hereby approves the application (Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749) subject to each and every condition setforth below and in the Standard Conditions, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

The cost of local storm drains shall be borne by this development with no fee credit. 14) Where sump catch basins are used, provide two and intercept Q100 in both sump catch basins and their laterals. Item D —32 Resolution No. 04-243 Page 20 of 42 15) Development shalt provide adequate easements and construct local and Master Plan System 3 drainage facilities extending from the site to the Etiwanda Regional Spreading Grounds. System 3 includes the projection of the existing open channel on the north boundary of Tract 14139, east of East Avenue to the Etiwanda Spreading Grounds. a) Development shall participate in construction of Interim Master Plan Basin No. 2 and either the Etiwanda/Summit or Etiwanda/Arrow Interim Regional Basin, as directed by San Bernardino County Flood Control District (SBCFCD). b) Standard drainage fees for the site shall be credited to the cost of permanent master plan facilities, in accordance with City policy. The developer may request a reimbursement agreement to recover over sizing costs, in excess of fees, from future development. If the developer fails to submit for said reimbursement agreement within 6 months of the public improvements being accepted by the City, all rights of the developer to reimbursement shall terminate. 16) Proposed north tract channel amounts to portions of Master Plan System 2 needed to protect the site from upstream flows. Channel shall be designed to be extended west along the Rancho Etiwanda Estates property. Developer may also be required to install Interim Master Plan Basin No. 1, within the project limits, to the satisfaction of the SBCFCD. a) Flood protection facilities shall be completed prior to occupancy release. b) Standard drainage fees for the site shall be credited to the cost of permanent master plan facilities, in accordance with City policy. The developer may request a reimbursement agreement to recover over sizing costs, in excess of fees, from future development. If the developer fails to submit for said reimbursement agreement within 6 months of the public improvements being accepted by the City, all rights of the developer to reimbursement shall terminate. 17) If required by the San Bernardino County Flood Control District, construct Etiwanda/San Sevaine Interim Master Basin Nos. 1 and/or 2 as follows, justified by a final drainage report approved by the City Engineer. a) Provide an ultimate design for each basin to serve the entire developed tributary area. b) Install sufficient capacity to mitigate the increased runoff from this development, with an outlet system capable of handling the ultimate basin design (entire tributary area) with a minimum amount of modification as incremental development occurs.

Tentative Tract Maps are approved for 3 years. The start date of the 3-year approval period was the date of the second reading by the City Council of the Specific Plan Amendment and the Development Agreement (final approval of all aspects of the project), or August 4, 2004. With the time extension due to the lawsuit taken into to consideration, the official start date for SUBTT14749 was January 27, 2006, with the 3-year expiration date on January 27, 2009. The state legislature passed two time extensions (SB1185 and AB333), which lengthened the unexpired tentative tract map a total of 3 years. With these extensions, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749 now has an expiration date of January 27. 2012. C. The previously approved Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749 is in substantial compliance with the City's current General Plan, specific plans, ordinances, plans, codes, and policies; and d. The Time Extension of the Tentative Tract Map SUBTT4749 approval will not cause significant inconsistencies with the current General Plan, specific plans, ordinances, plans, codes, and policies; and e. The Time Extension of the Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749 approval is not likely to cause public health and safety problems; and f. The Time Extension is within the time limits established by State law and local ordinance. 3. 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 Planning Commission finds that no subsequent or supplemental environmental document is required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in connection with the review and approval of this application based upon the following findings and determinations: a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the City certified an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) on July 21, 2004 (State Clearing House #2003081085) in connection with the City's approval of Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, no subsequent or supplemental EIR or Negative Declaration is required in connection with on discretionary approvals of the same project unless: (i) substantial changes are proposed to the project that indicate new or more severe impacts on the environment; (ii) substantial changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the project was previously reviewed that indicates new or more severe environmental impacts; or (iii) new important information shows the project will have new or more severe impacts than previously considered; or (iv) additional mitigation measures are now feasible to reduce impacts or different mitigation measures can be imposed to substantially reduce impacts. b. The Planning Commission finds, in connection with the time extension request, that substantial changes to the project or the circumstances surrounding the project have not occurred which would create new or more severe impacts than those evaluated in the previously certified EIR. The proposed time extension request does not raise or create new environmental impacts not already considered in the Environmental Impact Report for the tract map. Staff further finds that the project will not have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previously certified EIR, not have more severe effects than previously analyzed, and that additional or different mitigation measures are not required to reduce the impacts of the projectto a level of less -than -significant.

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 substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above - referenced public hearing on January 25, 2017, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The applicant is requesting a Time Extension to extend the expiration of the approval period for Tentative Tract Map 14749 from January 27, 2017, to January 27, 2018. b. The City's Subdivision Ordinance (Municipal Code Section 16.16.160) states that approved Tentative Tract Maps are valid for 3 years. The applicant may request up to five 1-year extensions (Municipal Code Section 16.16.170), which must be approved by the Planning. Commission. Item D —81 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-06 TIME EXTENSION DRC2016-01009 FOR TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT14749 January 25, 2017 Page 2 C. Tentative Tract Map 14749 (SUBTT14749) was approved by the Planning Commission on June 9, 2004 (Exhibit C). This approval was appealed to the City Council on July 21, 2004. The appeal was denied and the project was approved with the second reading of Ordinances No. 729 (Specific Plan Amendment) and No. 730 (Development Agreement) on August 4, 2004. A lawsuit was subsequently filed on August 18, 2004, against the City over the approved project (Spirit of the Sage Council v. City of Rancho Cucamonga, with the applicant, Traigh Pacific L.P., as the Real Party of Interest). The casewas settled on December20, 2005, with the applicant agreeing to pay a settlement to the petitioner and the original City approval remaining intact. The settlement agreement became effective on February 10, 2006, with the lawsuit dismissed 7 days later on February 17, 2006. Because of a lawsuit filed on August 18, 2004, and subsequently settled on February 10, 2006, on June 12, 2007, the City's attorney informed staff that pursuant to Government Code Section 66452.6 (c), the subject tentative tract map was entitled to an automatic time extension for the period between the date the lawsuit was filed (August 18, 2004) and the date the lawsuit was settled (February 10, 2006), or 541 days. The duration of the approval period for tentative tract maps is 3 years. Thus, the start date of the approval period was the date of the second reading by the City Council for the Specific Plan Amendment and the Development Agreement (final approval of all aspects of the project) was August 4, 2004. With the time extension due to the lawsuit taken into consideration, the official start date of the approval period for SUBTT14749 was January 27, 2006, with the expiration date occurring on January 27, 2009. In the interim, the State legislature passed four bills (SB1185, AB333, AB208 and AB116) that granted automatic time extensions for all tentative maps that qualified. This lengthened the approval period for the subject tentative tract map by a total of 7 years. With these extensions, Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749 now has an expiration date of January 27, 2017. d. The Time Extension is being requested in order to provide additional time for the applicant to work toward recording the final map and preparing related improvement plans. The applicant is not requesting any changes to the approved map; and e. The previously approved Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749 is in substantial compliance with the City's current General Plan, specific plans, ordinances, plans, codes, and policies; and f. The Time Extension of the Tentative Tract Map SUBTT4749 approval will not cause significant inconsistencies with the current General Plan, specific plans, ordinances, plans, codes, and policies; and g. The Time Extension of the Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749 approval is not likely to cause public health and safety problems; and h. The Time Extension is within the time limits established by State law and local ordinance. 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. The previously approved Tentative Parcel Map is consistent with the City's current General Plan, specific plans, ordinances, plans, codes, and policies. The proposed project is to Item D —82 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-06 TIME EXTENSION DRC2016-01009 FOR TENTATIVE TRACT MAP SUBTT14749 January 25, 2017 Page 3 subdivide the property into 269 lots for future single-family residential development and is consistent with the district of the project site. b. The site is physically suitable for the type and density of the proposed subdivision. The properties to the west are developed with single-family residential homes. The properties to the north and south contain Southern California Edison transmission lines. The property to the east contains flood control improvements. The installation of various improvements, including street and drainage improvements, will be required to be installed by the Engineering Department as conditions of approval with the development of this site. C. The proposed subdivision, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. The proposed project is to subdivide the property for future residential development — no development of the site is proposed at this time. d. The proposed subdivision complies with each of the applicable provisions and standards outlined of the Etiwanda North Specific Plan, including minimum lot width and depth and minimum lot area. e. The extension is within the time limits established by State law and local ordinance. State law allows for one year time extensions. 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 Planning Commission finds that no subsequent or supplemental environmental document is required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in connection with the review and approval of this application based upon the following findings and determinations: a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the City certified an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) on July 21, 2004 (State Clearinghouse #2003081085) in connection with the City's approval of Tentative Tract Map SUBTT14749. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, no subsequent or supplemental EIR or Negative Declaration is required in connection with subsequent discretionary approvals of the same project unless: (i) substantial changes are proposed to the project that'indicate new or more severe impacts on the environment; (ii) substantial changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the project was previously reviewed that indicates new or more severe environmental impacts; or (iii) new important information shows the project will have new or more severe impacts than previously considered; or (iv) additional mitigation measures are now feasible to reduce impacts or different mitigation measures can be imposed to substantially reduce impacts. b. The Planning Commission finds, in connection with the time extension request, that substantial changes to the project or the circumstances surrounding the project have not occurred which would create new or more severe impacts than those evaluated in the previously certified EIR. The amount of lots being proposed is not being modified and the design of the tract will remain the same as originally approved. Staff further finds that the project will not have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previously certified EIR, not have more severe effects than previously analyzed, and that additional or different mitigation measures are not required to reduce the impacts of the project to a level of less than significant. The proposed time extension request does not raise or create new environmental impacts not already considered in the Environmental Impact Report for the tract map.

Site Characteristics: The project site is a rectangular parcel of about 474 feet (north -south) by 558 feet (east -west), located at the northeast corner of Sixth Street and Center Avenue. The property to the north and west are in the General Industrial (GI) District, and the property to the east and south are in the Industrial Park (IP) District. To the north is an 84,000 square foot manufacturing building, to the south is an 830,000 square foot warehouse distribution building, E,F-1 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2016-00268 AND SUBTPM19683 — BRUCE KARISH January. 25, 2017 Page 2 to the east is a 193,000 square foot warehouse distribution building, and to the west is a multi - tenant industrial complex. The site is vacant and vegetation is dominated by short grasses, there are no shrubs or,trees on the project site. The subject property is generally level with an elevation at the north and south sides of about 1,080 feet and 1,070 feet, respectively. D. Parking Calculations: Development Code Table 17.64.050-1 establishes the following parking requirements for industrial projects: of Use I FloorType Square Feet (SO. Ratio NumberParking ..

For warehouse/storage uses, the parking calculations are 1 space per 1,000 square feet for the first 20,000 square feet; 1 space per 2,000 square feet for the next 20,000 square feet; and 1 space per 4,000 square feet,for Floor area in excess of the first 40,000 square feet. 2. The truck trailer parking requirement is calculated separately from the standard parking requirement and is based on a ratio of one stall per dock high door. The proposed project provides 8 dock high doors and 8 trailer parking spaces. ANALYSIS A. Project Design: The applicant proposes to construct two single tenant buildings and one multi - tenant building on three parcels (Exhibit B). Parcel 1 is 3.35 acres and will contain Building 1, a four tenant multi -tenant industrial building with 59,215 square feet of leasable floor area. Parcel is 0.92 acres and will contain Building 2 with 15,668 square feet of leasable floor area. Parcel 3 is 0.89 acres and will contain Building 3 with 12,761 square feet of leasable floor area (Exhibits B & G). The buildings are speculative at this time, but as typical for these types of buildings, a small office is included in each tenant space. A dock high door and trailer parking E, F —2 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2016-00268 AND SUBTPM19683 — BRUCE KARISH January25, 2017 Page 3 space is provided for each building/tenant space. Building 1 provides 6 truck trailer parking spaces, Buildings 2 and 3 each provide 1 truck trailer parking space for a total of 8 truck trailer parking spaces on -site (Exhibit B). Automobile parking is provided for each tenant space based on office, manufacturing, and warehouse floor area. The proposed buildings will be of concrete tilt -up construction painted with a palette of four different colors with a secondary material of glass panels (Exhibit F). The building colors are incorporated into geometric patterns and horizontal banding to break up large expanses of stucco. Glass is generously incorporated into the tower element design to emphasize the importance of the office area as the main entry of each tenant space. Each office entrance will also have a metal canopy above the entry door. The Development Code requires a 35-foot building set back off of Sixth Street and a 25-foot building setback off of Center Avenue (Exhibit B). At the building setback line, buildings are limited to a maximum height of 35 feet. Buildings exceeding 35 feet in height are required to be set back an additional 1 foot from the front setback for each 1 foot of height up to a maximum building setback of 70 feet. The project is designed so that most of the buildings are 35 feet high; however, each of the three buildings has a tower element incorporated into its design to differentiate the office floor area from the manufacturing/warehouse floor area (Exhibit F). The office area for Building 1 (Unit A), Building 2, and Building 3 have the tower element setback an additional 3 feet behind the primary building plane as the office area tower element increases in height to 38 feet. B. Tentative Parcel Map SUBTPM19683: The existing parcel will be subdivided into 3 parcels: Parcel 1 is 3.35 acres and will contain Building 1, a four tenant multi -tenant industrial building, Parcel is 0.92 acres and will contain Building 2, a single tenant building, and Parcel 3 is 0.89 acres and will contain Building 3, a single tenant building (Exhibit G). The proposed Tentative Parcel Map conforms to all industrial development standards for lot dimensions, and lot size applicable to the subdivision of property in the General Industrial (GI) District. C. Design Review Committee: The project was reviewed by the Design Review Committee (Wimberly, Macias, and Granger) on November 1, 2016. The Committee recommended approval of the project as submitted. D. AB52 Tribal Consultation: In accordance with AB52, the Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians, the San Manual Band of Mission Indians, and the Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians were contacted on November 17, 2016 to determine their interest in engaging in consultation related to the potential impact to cultural resources as a result of the project. No communications were received from any of the identified tribes requesting additional information or consultation. E. Environmental Assessment: 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 related to aesthetics, agricultural resources, air quality, biological resources, cultural resources, geology and soils, greenhouse gas emissions, hydrology and water quality, and noise, 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 E, F —3 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2016-00268 AND SUBTPM19683 — BRUCE KARISH January 25, 2017 Page 4 Negative Declaration. A Mitigation Monitoring Program has also been prepared to ensure implementation of, and compliance with, the mitigation measures for the project.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP SUBTPM19683 - BRUCE KARISH - A request to subdivide a 5.26 acre site into 3 parcels in the General Industrial (GI) District, located at the northeast corner of 6th Street and Center Avenue APN: 0209-262-25. Related Files: Design Review DRC2016-00268 and CEQA Review CEQA2016-00011. Design Parameters: The project site is a rectangular parcel of about 474 feet (north -south) by 558 feet (east -west), located at the northeast corner of 6th Street and Center Avenue. The property to the north and west are in the General Industrial (GI) District, and the property to the east and south are in the Industrial Park (IP) District. To the north is an 84,000 square foot manufacturing building, to the south is an 830,000 square foot warehouse distribution building, to the east is a 193,000 square foot warehouse distribution building, and to the west'is a multi -tenant industrial complex. The site is vacant and vegetation is dominated by short grasses; there are no shrubs or trees are on the project site. The subject property is generally level with an elevation at the north and south sides of about 1,080 feet and 1,070 feet, respectively. The applicant proposes to construct three industrial buildings: two single tenant and one multi - tenant buildings on three parcels. Parcel 1 is 3.35 acres and will contain Building 1, a four tenant multi -tenant industrial building totaling 63,459 square feet. Parcel 2 is 0.92 acres and will contain Building 2 totaling 17,709 square feet. Parcel 3 is 0.89 acres and will contain Building 3 totaling 13,708 square feet. The buildings are speculative at this time, but as typical for these types of buildings, a small office is included in each tenant space. A dock high door and trailer parking space is provided for each building/tenant space. Building 1 provides 6 truck trailer parking spaces, Buildings 2 and 3 each provide 1 truck trailer parking space for a total of 8 truck trailer parking spaces on -site. Automobile parking is provided for each tenant space based on office, manufacturing, and warehouse floor area. Building 1 will provide 88 parking spaces for the four tenant spaces, Building 2 will provide 28 parking spaces, and Building 3 will provide 25 parking spaces, for a combined total of 141 parking spaces on -site. The Development Code requires a 35-foot building set back off of 6th Street and a 25-foot building setback off of Center Avenue. At the building setback line, buildings are limited to a maximum height of 35 feet. Buildings exceeding 35 feet in height are required to be set back an additional 1-foot from the front setback for each 1-foot of height up to a maximum building setback of 70 feet. The project is designed so that most of the buildings are 35 feet high, however, each of the three buildings has a tower element incorporated into its design to differentiate the office floor area from the manufacturing/warehouse floor area. The office area for Building 1 (Unit A), Building 2, and Building 3 have the tower element setback an additional 3 feet behind the primary building plane as the office area tower element increases in height to 38 feet. The proposed buildings will be of concrete tilt -up construction painted with a palette of four' different colors with a secondary material of glass panels. The building colors are incorporated into geometric patterns and horizontal banding to break up large expanses of stucco. Glass is generously incorporated into the tower element design to emphasize the importance of the office area as the main entry of each tenant space. Each office entrance will also have a metal canopy.

The proposed project is similar in scale and massing as the surrounding industrial developments and the visual quality of the area will not be degraded as a result of this project. Design review and incorporation of established design guidelines is required prior to approval. City standards require the developer to underground existing and new utility lines and facilities to minimize the unsightly appearance of overhead utility lines and utility enclosures in accordance with Planning Commission Resolution No.87-96, unless exempted by said Resolution. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. d) The project would increase the number of streetlights and security lighting used in the immediate vicinity. The design and placement of light fixtures require compliance with City standards that require shielding, diffusing, or indirect lighting to avoid glare. A Conceptual Photometric Exhibit was submitted by the applicant. On -site illumination levels (provided for parking, circulation, and pedestrian areas) comply with Development Code standards and will be shielded from adjacent properties. Lighting will be selected and located to confine the area of illumination to within the project site. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated.

Comments: a) The site is not designated as Prime Farmlands, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance. The proposed project is located at the northeast corner of 6th Street and Center Avenue and proposes the subdivision of the project site into three parcels and the development of three industrial buildings (two single -tenant buildings and one multi - tenant building) on 5.26 acres of land in the General Industrial (GI) District. Parcel 1 is 3.35 acres and will contain Building 1, a four tenant multi -tenant industrial building totaling 63,459 square feet. Parcel 2 is 0.92 acres and will contain Building 2 totaling 17,709 square feet. Parcel 3 is 0.89 acres and will contain Building 3 totaling 13,708 square feet. The project site is vacant and is characterized by the existing industrial/warehouse buildings to the north, east, and south, and the multi -tenant industrial complex to the west. There are approximately 209 acres of Farmland of Local Importance, Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of Statewide Importance within the City of Rancho Cucamonga according to the General Plan and the California Department of Conservation Farmland Map 2010. Concentrations of Important Farmland are sparsely located in the southern and eastern parts of the City that is characterized by existing and planned development. Farmland in the southern portion of the City is characterized by industrial, residential, and commercial land uses and Farmland in the eastern portion of the City is within the Etiwanda area and planned for development. Further, a large number of the designated farmland parcels are small, ranging from 3 acres to 30 acres, and their economic viability is doubtful; therefore, they are not intended to be retained as farmland in the General Plan Land Use Plan. The General Plan FPEIR identified the conversion of farmlands to urban uses as a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated.

Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. e) The proposed project is located at the northeast corner of 6th Street and Center Avenue and is characterized by the existing industrial/warehouse buildings to the north, east, and south, and the multi -tenant industrial complex to the west. Furthermore, there are no lands within the City of Rancho Cucamonga that qualify as forest land and therefore, there is no potential for conversion of forest land to a non -forest use. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. 3. AIR QUALITY. Would the project: a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the () () () (✓) applicable air quality plan? b) Violate any air quality standard or contribute () (✓) () ( ) substantially to an existing or projected air quality violation? C) Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of () (✓) () ( ) any criteria pollutant for which the project region is non - attainment under an applicable Federal or State ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions that exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors? d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant () (✓) () ( ) concentrations? e) Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial () () () (✓) number of people? Comments: a) As discussed in subsection b, the project would not exceed any air quality standards and would not interfere with the region's ability to comply with Federal and State air quality standards for Criterion 1 Increase in the Frequency or Severity of Violations (local air quality impacts) or Criterion 2 Exceed Assumptions in the AQMP (consistency with the 2003 AQMP). Therefore the project is consistent with the 2003 AQMP. b) Both the State of California and the Federal government have established health -based ambient air quality standards (AAQS) for seven air pollutants. These pollutants include E, F —38 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 6 Less Than Significant. Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially significant With Mitigaioh Than significant No Im act Incor orated Impact Impact ozone (03), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (S02), coarse particulate matter with a diameter or 10 microns or less (PMio), fine particulate matter less than 2.5 (PM2.5) microns in diameter and lead. Among these pollutants, ozone and particulate matter (PMlo and PM2.e) are considered regional pollutants while the others have more localized effects. In addition, the State of California has set standards for sulfates, hydrogen sulfide (1-12S), vinyl chloride and visibility reducing particles. These standards are designed to protect the health and welfare of the populace with a reasonable margin of safety. The City of Rancho Cucamonga area is within the South Coast Air Basin, which is under the jurisdiction of the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). The California Clean Air Act (CCAA) provides, the SCAQMD with the authority to manage transportation activities at indirect sources. Indirect sources of pollution are generated when minor sources collectively emit a substantial amount of pollution. Examples of this include motor vehicles at an intersection, a mall and on highways. SCAQMD also regulates stationary sources of pollution within a jurisdictional area. Direct emissions from motor vehicles are regulated by the Air Resources Board (ARB). The combination of topography, low mixing height, abundant sunshine, and emissions from the second largest urban area in the United States gives the Basin the worst air pollution problem in the nation. The Basin experiences a persistent temperature inversion (increasing temperature with increasing altitude); this inversion (coupled with low wind speeds) limits the vertical dispersion of air contaminants, holding them relatively near the ground. Pursuant to the Federal Clean Air Act (FCAA) of 1970, the EPA established national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for six major pollutants, termed criteria pollutants: ozone (03), coarse particulate matter with a diameter or 10 microns or less (PMto), fine particulate matter less than 2.5 (PM2.5) microns in diameter, carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (S02), and lead. Criteria pollutants are defined as those pollutants for which the Federal and State governments have established AAQS, or criteria, for outdoor concentrations in order to protect public health. Data collected at permanent monitoring stations are used by the EPA to classify regions as "attainment" or "non -attainment" depending on whether the regions met the requirements stated in the primary NAAQS. Nonattainment areas have additional restrictions as required by the EPA. The EPA has designated the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) as the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) responsible for ensuring the Basin's compliance with the FCAA. The South Coast Air Basin is in Non -Attainment Status for Ozone, PMio and PM2.e. Specific criteria for determining whether the potential air quality impacts of a project are significant are set forth in the SCAQMD's CEQA Air Quality Handbook. The criteria include daily emissions thresholds, compliance with State and national air quality standards, and consistency with the current AQMP. As prescribed by SCAQMD, an Air Quality, Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Health Risk Assessment Impact Analysis (Vista Environmental, March 26, 2016) was prepared that utilizes CaIEEMod (Version 2013.2.2) to evaluate short-term construction emissions and short-term construction emissions for localized significant thresholds, long-term operational emissions, operation emissions for localized significant thresholds, and Greenhouse Gas Emissions.

Exhaust emissions from construction activities envisioned on site would vary daily as construction activity levels change. The use of construction equipment on site would result in localized exhaust emissions; however, as shown in the tables above, the amount will not exceed any Local Significance Threshold. Fugitive Dust Fugitive dust emissions are generally emissions associated with land clearing and exposure of soils to. the air and wind, and cut -and -fill grading operations. Dust generated during construction varies substantially on a project -by project basis, depending on the level of activity, the specific operation and weather conditions at the time of construction. Construction emissions can vary greatly depending on the level of activity, the specific operations taking place, the equipment being operated, local soils, weather conditions and other factors. The proposed project will be required to comply with SCAQMD Rules 402 and 403 to control fugitive dust. Architectural Coatings Architectural coatings contain VOCs that are similar to ROCS 'and are part of the Os precursors. Based on the proposed project, it is estimated that the proposedproject will result in a maximum of approximately 59.03 Ibs of VOC per day (combined for all construction sources) during construction. Therefore, this VOC emission is the principal air emission and is less than the SCAQMD VOC threshold of 75 Ibs/day. Odors Heavy-duty equipment in the project area during construction would emit odors. However, the construction activity would cease to occur after individual construction is completed. No other sources of objectionable odors have been identified for the proposed project, and Rev 9-29-15 E, F —41 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 9 Less Than Signifioanl Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Signif:ant N4th lAtlgas" Than Significant No Impact Incor oraled Impact Impact no mitigation measures are required. In compliance with SCAQMD Rule 402 the proposed uses are not anticipated to emit any objectionable odors. Therefore, objectionable odors posing a health risk to potential on -site and existing off -site uses would not occur as a result of the proposed project. Naturally Occurring Asbestos The proposed project is located in San Bernardino County and it is not among the counties that are found to have serpentine and ultramafic rock in their soils. In addition, there has been no serpentine or ultramafic rock found in the project area. Therefore, the potential risk for naturally occurring asbestos (NOA) during project construction is small and less .than significant. Based on the discussion above and with implementation of the following mitigation measures, short-term, construction impacts will be less -than -significant: 1) All clearing, grading, earth -moving, or excavation activities shall ceasewhen winds exceed 25 mph per SCAQMD guidelines in order to limit fugitive dust emissions. 2) The contractor shall ensure that all disturbed unpaved roads and disturbed areas within the Project are watered at least three (3) times daily during dry weather. Watering, with complete coverage of disturbed areas, shall occur at least three times a day, preferably in the midmorning, afternoon, and after work is done for the day. 3) The contractor shall ensure that traffic speeds on unpaved roads and Project site areas are reduced to 15 miles per hour or less.

Impact Im act Cumulative Impacts: Short -Term Construction Emissions Continued development will contribute to the pollutant levels in the Rancho Cucamonga area, which already exceed Federal and State standards. During the construction phases of development, on -site stationary sources, heavy-duty construction vehicles, construction worker vehicles, and energy use will generate emissions. In addition, fugitive dust would also be generated during grading and construction activities. While most of the dust would settle on or near the project site, smaller particles would remain in the atmosphere, increasing particle levels within the surrounding area. Construction is an on -going industry in the Rancho Cucamonga area. Construction workers and equipment work and operate at one development site until their tasks are complete. Nevertheless, fugitive dust and. equipment emissions are .required to be assessed. The General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) analyzed the impacts of Air Quality based on the future build out of the City. Based upon on the Urban Emissions Model (URBEMIS7G) estimates in Table 4.3-3 of the General Plan (FPEIR), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Ozone (Os), and Particulate Matter (PM2.5 and PMio) would exceed SCAQMD thresholds for significance; therefore, they would all be cumulatively considerable if they cannot be mitigated on a project basis to a level less -than -significant. This city-wide increase in emissions was identified as a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which, a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council as noted in the Section 4.3 of the General Plan FPEIR. Based on the Air Quality, Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Health Risk Assessment Impact Analysis (Vista Environmental, March 26, 2016), no short-term, operational impacts would occur as a result of the project. Because the project would result in minimal emissions that do not exceed any thresholds of significance, the project's contribution to cumulative impacts is also considered minimal. With implementation of the following best practices and mitigation measures from the City's 2010 General Plan FPEIR that are designed to minimize short-term air quality impacts, the project's contribution to cumulative impacts will be less -than -significant: 4) All construction equipment shall be maintained in good operating condition so as to reduce operational emissions. The contractor shall ensure that all construction equipment is being properly serviced and maintained as per manufacturers'specifications. Maintenance records shall be available at the construction site for City verification. 5) Prior to the issuance of any grading permits, the developer shall submit construction plans to the City denoting the proposed schedule and projected equipment use. Construction contractors shall provide evidence that low emission mobile construction equipment will be utilized, or that their use was investigated and found to be infeasible for the project. Contractors shall also conform to any construction measures imposed by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) as well as City Planning Staff. 6) The construction contractor shall utilize electric or clean alternative fuel powered equipment where feasible. 7) The construction contractor shall ensure that construction -grading plans include a statement that work crews will shut off equipment when not in use.

Additionally, contractors shall include the following provisions: • Reestablish ground cover on the construction site through seeding and watering. • Pave or apply gravel to any on -site haul roads. • Phase grading to prevent the susceptibility of large areas to erosion over extended periods of time. • Schedule activities to minimize the amounts of exposed excavated soil during and after the end of work periods. • Dispose of surplus excavated material in accordance with local ordinances and use sound engineering practices. • Sweep streets according to a schedule established by the City if silt is carried over to adjacent public thoroughfares or occurs as a result of hauling. Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction. • Suspend grading operations during high winds (i.e., wind speeds exceeding 25mph) in accordance with Rule 403 requirements. • Maintain a minimum 24-inch freeboard ratio on soils haul trucks or cover payloads using tarps or other suitable means. 11) The site shall be treated with water or other soil -stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB)) daily to reduce PM10 emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403. 12) Chemical soil -stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PMto emissions. Project Long Term (Operational) Emissions and Impacts .Long-term air pollutant emissions are those associated with stationary sources and mobile sources involving any project -related changes. The proposed project would result in a net increase in the amount of development in the area; therefore, the proposed project would result in net increases in both stationary and mobile source emissions. The stationary source emissions would come from additional natural gas consumption for on -site buildings Rev 9-29-15 E, F —44 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 12 Less Than Significanl Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially sigoificarA Wth NlugalJon Than Significanl No Im act Incorporated Impact Impact and electricity for the lighting in the buildings and at the parking area.

The SCAQMD identifies the following as sensitive receptors: long-term health care facilities, rehabilitation centers, convalescent centers, retirement homes, residences, schools, playgrounds, child care centers, and athletic facilities. According to the SCAQMD, projects have the potential to create significant impacts if they are located within 1/4 mile of sensitive receptors and would emit toxic air contaminants identified in SCAQMD Rule 1401. The project site is not located within 1/4 mile of a sensitive receptors. Potential impacts to air quality are consistent with the Public Health and Safety Super -Element within the Rancho Cucamonga General Plan. During construction, there is the possibility of fugitive dust to be generated from grading the site. The mitigation measures listed under subsection b above and the following mitigation measure will reduce any potential impact to less -than -significant levels. 24) All new development in the City of Rancho Cucamonga shall comply with South Coast Air Quality Management District's Rule 445, Wood Burning Devices. Rule 445 was adopted in March 200E to reduce emissions of PM2.5 and precludes the installation of indoor or outdoor wood burning devices (i.e. fireplaces/hearths) in new development on or after March 9, 2009. e) Construction odors (Short-term) may include odors associated with equipment use including diesel exhaust or roofing, painting and paving. These odors are temporary and would dissipate rapidly. Operational odors (Long-term) are not typically associated with the type of use. Odors from the proposed industrial1warehouse use would most likely be from activities such as trash storage; however, these odors would be minimal and not considered to be significant. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. 4. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES. Would,the project: a) Have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or () (✓) () ( ) through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service? b) Have a substantial adverse effect on riparian habitat or O O O (✓) other sensitive natural community identified in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations or by the California Department of Fish and Game or US Fish and Wildlife Service? c) Have a substantial adverse effect on federally () () () (✓) protected wetlands as defined by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (including, but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool, coastal, etc.) through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption, or other means?

Comments: a) The proposed project is located at the northeast corner of 6th Street and Center Avenue and proposes the subdivision of the project site into three parcels and the development of three industrial buildings (two single -tenant buildings and one multi -tenant building) on 5.26 acres of land in the General Industrial (GI) District. Parcel 1is 3.35 acres and will contain Building 1, a four tenant multi -tenant industrial building totaling 63,459 square feet. Parcel 2 is 0.92 acres and will contain Building 2 totaling 17,709 square feet. Parcel 3 is 0.89 acres and will contain Building 3 totaling 13,708 square feet. The project site is vacant and. is characterized by the existing industrial/warehouse buildings to the north, east, and south, and the multi -tenant industrial complex to the west. The site has been previously disrupted during the construction of infrastructure and surrounding developments and also by annual discing for weed abatement. According to the General Plan Figure RC-4, and Section 4.4 of the General Plan FPEIR, the project site is not within an area of sensitive biological resources; therefore, development is not anticipated to adversely affect rare or endangered species of plants or animals because of the fact that the project is surrounded by urbanized land uses and is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Plan. A Habitat Suitability Evaluation (Ecological Sciences, March 11, 2016) was prepared for the project site. No special status plant or animal species were detected on the project site. There were no jurisdictional resources observed on the project site. Although no native habitat types are present, and no listed species are expected to occur due to the absence of suitable habitat, the potential presence of special -status species (e.g., burrowing owl) may impose some degree of constraint to development depending upon the nature of both direct and indirect impact on these resources, as well as on the particular species and seasonal timing of construction activities. During permitting procedures, the following mitigation measures will further reduce potential project related impacts to sensitive biological resources to less than significant: 1) Three days prior to the removal of vegetation or ground -disturbing activities, a breeding bird survey that is in conformance with the Migratory Bird Act shall be required to determine whether nesting is occurring. Occupied nests shall not be disturbed unless a qualified biologist verifies through non- invasive methods that either (a) the adult birds have not begun egg -laying or incubation; or (b) the juveniles from the occupied nests are foraging independently and are capable of independent survival. If the biologist is unable to verify one of the above conditions, then no disturbance shall occur within 300 feet of non -raptor nests, and within 5,000 feet of raptor nests, during the breeding season to avoid abandonment of the young.

The temporary "no construction" area shall be maintained until the nest has completed its cycle, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. Once the nest cycle is complete and all nestlings have fledged and have left the nest, construction in the area may resume. 2) Perform a Burrowing Owl Survey that is in conformance with the Department of Fish and Wildlife Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation and submit the written report outlining the findings to'the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and the Planning Department within 30 days of groundbreaking activity. The survey shall include a habitat assessment, survey and impact analysis. The Burrowing Owl Survey shall follow the following protocol: Burrowing Owl Survey methodology shall be based on Appendix D (Breeding and Non -breeding Season Survey and Reports) of the CDFW Staff Report. Results of the pre -construction survey shall be provided to CDFW and the City. If the pre -construction survey does not identify burrowing owls on the project site, then no further mitigation is required. If burrowing owls are found to be utilizing the project site during the pre -construction survey, measures shall be developed by the qualified biologist in coordination with CDFW to avoid Impacting occupied burrows during the nesting period. These measures shall be based on the most current CDFW protocols and will at minimum include establishment of buffer setbacks from occupied burrows and owl monitoring. If ground -disturbing activities are delayed or suspended for more than 30 days after the pre -construction survey, the site shall be resurveyed for owls. During the non -breeding season from September 1 through January 31, if burrows are occupied by migratory or non -migratory resident burrowing owls during a pre -construction survey, burrow exclusion and/or closure may be used to exclude owls from those burrows. Burrow exclusion and/or closure should only be conducted by a qualified wildlife biologist in coordination with CDFW using the most current CDFW guidelines. During the avian nesting season from February 1 through August 31, if nests are discovered, they shall be avoided through establishment of an appropriate buffer setback, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. The temporary "no construction" area would have to be maintained until the nest has completed its cycle, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. Once the nest cycle is complete and all nestlings have fledged and have left the nest, construction in the area may resume. The project site is located in an urban area with no natural communities and no riparian habitat existing on -site. As a result, project implementation would have no impact on these resources.

As a result, project implementation would have no impact on these resources." d) The City is primarily located in an urban area that does not contain large, contiguous natural open space areas. Wildlife potentially may move through the north/south trending tributaries in the northern portion of the City and within the Sphere of Influence. Therefore no adverse impacts are anticipated. e) There are no heritage trees on the project site; therefore, the proposed project is not in conflict with any local ordinance. No adverse impacts are expected. f) Neither the City, per the SO!, are within an adopted HCP, NCCP, or other approved State Habitat Conservation Plan area. The project site is not located within a local conservation area according to the General Plan, Open Space and Conservation Plan, Figure RC-1. No conflicts with habitat conservation plans will occur. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. 5. CULTURAL RESOURCES. Would the project: a) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance ( ) () () (✓) of a historical resource as defined in § 15064.5? b) Cause a substantial adverse change in the significance ( ) (✓) () ( ) of an archeological resource pursuant to § 15064.5? c) Directly or indirectly destroy a unique paleontological ( (✓) (') ( ) resource or site or unique geologic feature? d) Disturb any human remains, including those interred () () () (✓) outside of formal cemeteries? e) Directly or indirectly affect a Native American tribal () () () (✓) cultural resource? Comments: a) The project site has not been identified as a "Historic Resource" per the standards of Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code Section 2.24 (Historic Preservation). A Phase 1 Cultural Resources Assessment (Brian Smith and Associates, April 21, 2016) was prepared for the project site. As part of the review, they requested a records search for the property from the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) at CSU Fullerton, which reported that 13 cultural resource sites and 18 reports have been recorded within a one -mile radius of the project site. They also performed an intensive pedestrian reconnaissance on the project site that employed a series of parallel survey transects spaced at five -meter intervals to locate archaeological sites within the project area. No artifacts or cultural resources were observed as a result of the survey. The study concluded the project site did not contain the presence of archaeological sites and the surveys did not identify any cultural resources within the project area. The study also concluded that there would be no potential impacts to cultural resources associated from the development of the project site. Based upon the absence of any cultural resources and the lack of potential for buried resources due to the level of previous disturbance, monitoring of any future grading is not recommended. b) There are no known archaeological sites or resources recorded on the project site; however, the Rancho Cucamonga area is known to have been inhabited by Native Rev 9-29-15 E, F —50 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 18 Less Tnan SlgniFlcant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially significant Wilh h6tigatlon Than Significant No Impact Incorpara;ad Impact Impact Americans according to the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.6). Construction activity, particularly grading, soil excavation, and compaction, could adversely affect or eliminate existing and potential archaeological resources. A Phase 1 Cultural Resources Assessment (Brian Smith and Associates, April 21, 2016) evaluated the proposed project and found no records of any historical, cultural resource, archaeological, or paleontological investigations or resource records recorded on the property. The General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) analyzed the impacts of Cultural Resources based on the future build out of the City. The following mitigation measures as identified in the FPEIR shall be implemented: 1) If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified archaeologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. With the assistance of the archaeologist, the City of Rancho Cucamonga will: • Enact interim measures to protect undesignated sites from demolition or significant modification without an opportunity for the City to establish its archaeological value. • Consider establishing provisions to require incorporation of archaeological sites within new developments, using their special qualities as a theme or focal point. • Pursue educating the public about the archaeological heritage of the area. • Prepare a mitigation plan consistent with Section 21083.2 Archaeological resources of CEQA to eliminate adverse project effects on significant, important, and unique prehistoric resources, including but not limited to, avoiding archaeological sites, capping or covering sites with soil, planning the site as a park or green space or paying an in -kind mitigation fee. • Prepare a technical resources management report, documenting the inventory, evaluation, and proposed mitigation of resources within the project area. Submit one copy of the completed report with original illustrations, to the San Bernardino County Archaeological Information Center for permanent archiving. c) The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.6) indicates that the Rancho Cucamonga area is on an alluvial fan. According to the research performed at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County and the San Bernardino County database, no paleontological sites or resources have been recorded within the City of Rancho Cucamonga or the Sphere -of - Influence, including the project site; however, the area has a high sensitivity rating for paleontological resources. The older alluvium, which would have been deposited during the wetter climate that prevailed 10,000-100,000 years ago during the Late Pleistocene epoch of the Quaternary period, when the last"Ice Age" and the appearance of modern man occurred, may contain significant vertebrate fossils. The project site is underlain by Quaternary alluvium per the Public Safety Element of the General Plan. A Phase 1 Cultural Resources Assessment (Brian Smith and Associates, April 21, 2016) evaluated the Rev 9-29-15 E, F —51 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 19 Less TM an Significant Less potenlially Vll,h Than Issues and Supporting Information Sources: sgnlFeant M16tiga6on Significant No Impact Incorporated Impact Impact proposed project and found no records of any historical, cultural resource, archaeological, or paleontological investigations or resource records recorded on the property. The following mitigation measures shall be implemented: 2) If any paleontological resource (i.e. plant or animal fossils) are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified paleontologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. The paleontologist shall submit a report of findings that will also provide specific recommendations regarding further mitigation measures (i.e., paleontological monitoring) that may be appropriate. Where mitigation monitoring is appropriate, the program must include, but not be limited to, the following measures: • Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow the rapid removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to the site full-time during the interval of earth -disturbing activities. • Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded, divert earth -disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has completed salvage. If construction personnel make the discovery, the grading contractor should immediately divert construction and notify the monitor of the find. • Prepare, identify, and curate all recovered fossils for documentation in the summary report and transfer to an appropriate depository (i.e., San Bernardino County Museum). • Submit summary report to City of Rancho Cucamonga. Transfer collected specimens with a copy of the report to San Bernardino County Museum. d) The proposed project is in an area that has already been disturbed by grading, existing on - site and surrounding development. The site has been previously disrupted during agricultural use of the site, the construction of surrounding infrastructure and surrounding developments, and annual discing for weed abatement. No known religious or sacred sites exist within the project area. No evidence is in place to suggest the project site has been used for human burials. The California Health and Safety Code (Section 7050.5) states that if human remains are discovered on -site, no further disturbance shall occur until the County Coroner has made a determination of origin and disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. As adherence to State regulations is required for all development, no mitigation is required in the unlikely event human remains are discovered on -site. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. e) Per the requirements of AB52, on November 17, 2016, the City submitted Tribal Consultation Requests to the Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians, the San Manual Band of Mission Indians, and the Torres Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians to determine their interest in engaging in consultation related to the proposed project. None of those tribes requested consultation. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated.

Comments: a) No known faults pass through the site and it is not in an Earthquake Fault Zone, nor is it in the Rancho Cucamonga City Special Study Zone along the Red Hill Fault, according to the General Plan Figure PS-2, and Section 4.7 of the General Plan FPEIR. The Red Hill Fault (and Etiwanda Avenue Fault Scarp) lies approximately 2.0 mile northwest of the site, and the Cucamonga Fault Zone lies approximately 5.0 miles north. These faults are both capable of producing Mw 6.0-7.0 earthquakes. Also, the San Jacinto fault, capable of producing up to Mw 7.5 earthquakes is about 16 miles northeasterly of the site and the San Andreas, capable of up to Mw 8.2 earthquakes, is about 18 miles northeasterly of the site. Each of these faults can produce strong ground shaking. Adhering to the Uniform Building Code and Standard Conditions will ensure that geologic impacts are less -than -significant. b) The City of Rancho Cucamonga is within a designated Soil Erosion Control Area Exhibit 4.7-4 of the General Plan FPEIR. The proposed project will require the excavation, stockpiling, and/or movement of on -site soils. The Rancho Cucamonga area is subject to strong Santa Ana wind conditions during September to April, which generates blowing sand -and dust, and creates erosion problems. Construction activities may temporarily exacerbate the impacts of windblown sand, resulting in temporary problems of dust control; however, development of this project under the General Plan would help to reduce windblown sand impacts in the area as pavement, roads, buildings, and landscaping are Rev 9-29-15 E, F —53 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 21 Less Than SignlAcam Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: potentlaily Significant YAMThan Mitigation Significant Np Imoact Incar prated Impact Impact established. Therefore, the following fugitive dust mitigation measures shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less -than -significant levels: 1) The site shall be treated with water or other soil -stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) daily to reduce PMto emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403 or re -planted with drought resistant landscaping as soon as possible. 2) Frontage public streets shall be swept according to a schedule established by the City to reduce PMto emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil off -site. Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction. 3) Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph 'to minimize PM10 emissions from the site during such episodes. 4) Chemical soil -stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PMto emissions. c) The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.7) indicates that there is a potential for the hillside areas at the northern end of the City and in the SOI for slope failure, landslides, and/or erosion. Areas subject to slope instability contain slopes of 30 percent or greater. Landslides may be induced by seismic activity, rain, or construction. The City Hillside Development Regulations prohibits the development within slopes of 30 percent or greater and limit the number of units that could be constructed within the Hillside Residential and Very Low Density Residential designations in the Hillside areas. The site is not within an Earthquake hazard zone or other unstable geologic unit or soil type according to General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.7-2. Soil types on -site consist of Tujunga Loamy Sand (TuB) Soil association according to General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.7-3. Therefore; no adverse impacts are anticipated. d) The majority of Rancho Cucamonga, including the project site, is located on alluvial soil deposits. These types of soils are not considered to be expansive. Soil types on -site consist of Tujunga Loamy Sand (TuB) Soil association according to General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.7-3. These soils are typically found at the in the central and eastern sections of the City and consist of brown loamy sand and pale -brown coarse sand. These soils are about 60 inches thick, somewhat excessively drained, and found on nearly level to moderately slopping alluvial fans. With adherence to standard building techniques in accordance with the building code, no adverse impacts are anticipated. e) The project will connect to, and be served by, the existing local sewer system for wastewater disposal. No septic tanks or alternative wastewater disposal is proposed. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated.

Would the project: a) Generate greenhouse gas emissions, either directly or () (✓) () ( ) indirectly, that may have a significant impact on the environment? b) Conflict'with an applicable plan, policy or regulation () () (✓) ( ) adopted for the purpose of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases? Comments: a) Regulations and Significance — The Federal government began studying the phenomenon of global warming as. early as 1979 with the National Climate Protection Act (92 Stat. 601). In June of 2005, Governor Schwarzenegger established California's Green House Gas (GHG) emissions reduction target in Executive Order (EO) S-3-05. The EO created goals to reduce GHG emissions for the State of California to 2000 levels by 2010; GHG emissions reduced to 1990 levels by 2020; and GHG emissions reduced to 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. Additionally, on December 7, 2009, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) issued findings regarding GHGs under rule 202(a) of the Clean Air Act: (1) that GHGs endanger human health; and (2) that this will be the first steps to, regulating GHGs through the Federal Clean Air Act. The USEPA defines 6 key GHGs (carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N20), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6)). The combined emissions of these well -mixed greenhouse gases from new motor vehicles and engines contribute to GHG pollution: The western states, including Arizona, California, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, and Washington, already experience hotter, drier climates. California is a substantial contributor of GHGs and is expected to see an increase of 3 to 4 degrees Fahrenheit (OF) over the next century. Assembly Bill (AB) 32 requires that the California Air Resources Board (ARB), the lead agency for implementing AB 32, determine what the statewide GHG emission level was in 1990 and approve a statewide GHG emissions limit (427 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent) to be achieved by 2020 and prepare a Scoping Plan to outline the main strategies for meeting the 2020 deadline. Significant progress can be made toward the 2020 goal through existing technologies and improving the efficiency of energy use. Other solutions would include improving the State's infrastructure, and transitioning to cleaner and more efficient sources of energy. The ARB estimates that 38 percent of the State's GHG emissions in 2004 was from transportation sources followed by electricity generation (both in -State and out -of -State) at 28 percent and industrial at 20 percent. Residential and commercial activities account for 9 percent, agricultural uses at 6 percent, high global warming potential gases at 3 percent, and recycling and waste at 1 percent. It is not anticipated that any single development project would have a substantial effect on global climate change but that GHG emissions from the project would combine with emissions across California, the United States, and the world to cumulatively contribute to global climate change. Therefore, consistent with the ARB's Climate Change Scoping Plan, the ,proposed project was evaluated for consistency with the Early Action Measures (Scoping Plan is a recommendation until adopted through normal rulemaking). The proposed project is assessed by determining its consistency with the 37 Recommended Rev 9-29-15 E, F —55 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City -of Rancho Cucamonga Page 23 Lass Than significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Sgnifica nt Vfth %Migation Than signircant No Imoact Incor orated Im act Im act Actions identified by ARB. In compliance with Senate Bill (SB) 97 and CEQA, the project has been analyzed based on a qualitative analysis (CEQA 15064.4). Additionally, the ARB was directed through SB 375 to develop regional GHG emission reduction targets to be achieved within the automobile and light truck sectors for 2020 and 2035. SCAQMD and ARB maintain ambient air quality monitoring stations in the Basin. The stations closest to the project site are the Upland station and the Fontana -Arrow Highway station. The Upland station monitors all criteria pollutants except PM1o, PM2.e, and SO2 which are monitored at the Fontana -Arrow Highway station. The ambient air quality in the project area for CO, NO2, and SO2 are consistently below the relevant State and Federal standards (based on ARB and EPA from 2007, 2008, and 2009 readings). Ozone, PMto, and PM2.5 levels all exceed State and Federal standards regularly. Project Related Sources of GHG's.-Based on the Guidelines for the Implementation of California Environmental Quality Act, Appendix G, a project would normally be considered to have a significant effect on air quality if the project would violate any ambient air quality standards, contribute substahtially to an existing air quality violation, expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations, or conflict with adopted environmental plans and goals of the community. However, neither the CEQA statutes, Office of Planning and Research (OPR) guidelines, nor the draft proposed changes to the CEQA Guidelines prescribe thresholds of significance or a particular methodology for performing an impact analysis. Significance criteria are left to the judgment and discretion of the Lead Agency. The City of Rancho Cucamonga has not adopted a threshold of significance for GHG emissions. However, a screening threshold of 3,000 MTCO2e per year is based upon South Coast Air Quality Management District staff's proposed GHG screening threshold for stationary sources emissions for non -industrial projects, as described in the SCAQMD's Interim CEQA GHG Significance Threshold for Stationary Sources, Rules, and Plans. Project related GHG's would include emissions from direct and indirect sources. Based on the Air Quality, Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Health Risk Assessment Impact Analysis (Vista Environmental, March 26, 2016), total project related emissions would be 693 MTCO2eq/year, as shown in the following table: Rev 9-29-15 E, F —56 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 24 Less Tnan Slgnifcanl Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: potentially S'p,flcam Vath Mitigation Than Significant No Impact Incorporated Impact Impact Gretaftousfi Ga5 Elllissions Olelrlc Tons par Year) cal%aD •HA cal c1r, Nro core U EraiSsiOM3 .Area Souks' G.GG o GG 0nergy Usdge= 112,46 0.05 0.01 113.13 Mobile Sources' 0h6.8'5 0.04 0.00 667.60 Offrnad Scurccs' 53.48 G.G2 0.00 58,84 Solid 14astc' 17,69 1G3 0.00 3.9.65 Water and W:ulctt atc" 84,711 0.70 0.02 106.30 Construction' 15.04 0.00 0.00 15,10 Total B;\U Emissions 957.42 1.86 0.03 - 1,001.13 Year 2020 Project Emissions ;1ma Soureesl - O.CO 0.00 4A0 0AI Energy Usage tl8.85 003 0.01 89.22 Nfobii9 Sources' 42532 0.01 0.00 425.73 OfTru4d Sources' 52.64 0.0 0,00., $2.99 Solid Vlmlc' li.85 0.52 0.00 _ 19.83 Water and Wwe%wlcr" 7333 0.60 0.01 90.13 Construction' 15.04 0.00 0.00 15.10 Total 2020 Project Emissions W.03 1.1s 0.02 693.06 Percent Reduction betsreen.2008 BTU and Proiect 2020 1a 9el1 Exceeds Threshold?

Cumulative Short Term (Construction) GHG Emissions - The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.5) indicates that GHG emissions result from construction activities associated with diesel -powered construction equipment and other combustion sources (i.e. Generators, workers vehicles, material delivery, etc.). The GHG emitted by construction equipment is primarily carbon dioxide (CO2). The highest levels of construction related GHG's occur during site preparation including demolition, grading and excavation. Construction related GHG's are also emitted from off -site haul trucks and construction workers traveling to the job site. Exhaust emissions from construction activities would vary each day with the changes in construction activity on site. The combustion of fossil -based fuels creates GHG's such as CO2, Cho, and N20. CH4 is emitted during the fueling of heavy equipment. Based on the Air Quality, Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Health Risk Assessment Impact Analysis (Vista Environmental, March 26, 2016), no significant impacts to GHGs from short-term construction impacts would occur as a result of the project as shown in the table above. Because the project would result in minimal emissions that do not exceed the SCAQMD's interim threshold of significance, the project's contribution to cumulative impacts is also considered minimal. The proposed project would have less than a Rev 9-29-16 E, F -57 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 25 Less Than significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially slgNAcant Vfith fio 66tlgan Than 9gnlecant No Im act Incorporated Impact Im act significant short-term cumulative impact with implementation of the following enforceable actions, which are included as mitigation measures in accordance with Mitigation Measure 4.5-1 of the 2010 General Plan Update FPEIR: 1) The project must comply with all rules that assist in reducing short-term air pollutant emission in compliance with SCAQMD Rule 403 regarding fugitive dust including treating the site with water or other soil -stabilizing agent twice daily or replanting disturbed areas as quickly as possible. 2) The construction contractor shall select construction equipment based on low -emission factors and high energy efficiency and submit a statement on the grading plan that ensures all construction equipment will be tuned and maintained in accordance with the manufactures' specification. 3) Trucks shall not idle continuously for more than 5 minutes. 4) Alternative fuel powered equipment shall be utilized in lieu of gasoline- or diesel -powered engines where feasible. 5) Construction should be timed so as not to interfere with peak -hour traffic. 6) Ridesharing and transit incentives shall be supported and encouraged for the construction crew. Cumulative Long Term (Operational) GHG's Emissions —The primary source of GHG emissions generated by the proposed project would be from motor vehicles, combustion of natural gas for space and water heating, as well as off -site GHG emissions from generation of electricity consumed by the proposed land use development over a long term. CEQA requires the Lead Agency to review the project for "adequacy, completeness, and a good faith effort at full disclosure," to determine potential impacts of GHG's. Therefore the project has been analyzed based on methodologies and information available to the City at the time this document was prepared. Estimates are based on past performance and represent a scenario that is a worst case with the understanding that technology changes may reduce GHG emissions in the future. To date, there is no established quantified GHG emission threshold. The proposed project is located at the northeast corner of 6th Street and Center Avenue and proposes the subdivision of the project site into three parcels and the development of three industrial buildings (two single -tenant buildings and one multi -tenant building) on 5.26 acres of land in the General Industrial (GI) District. The majority of energy consumption typically occurs during project operation (more than 80 percent and less than 20 percent during construction activities). The proposed project will incorporate several design features that are consistent with the California Office of the Attorney General's recommended measures to reduce GHG emission including: water efficient landscaping, shade trees, and walkways that provide accessibility to public sidewalks. The project is consistent with the California Environmental Protection Agency Climate Action Team proposed early action measures to mitigate climate change included in the CARB Scoping Plan mandated under AB 32. The proposed project will incorporate several design features including: water efficient landscaping, shade trees, and walkways that provide accessibility to public sidewalks. Additionally, the City is participating in the Rev 9-29-15 E, F —58 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 26 Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially significant Wilh kkigation Than SlgrQrcant Np Im act Incprperated Im act Impact development of a Sustainable Communities Strategy (SCS) with SANBAG for the San Bernardino County area pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 375. Based on the Air Quality, Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Health Risk Assessment Impact Analysis (Vista Environmental, March 26, 2016), no significant impacts to GHGs from long- term, operational impacts would occur as a result of the project as shown in the table above. Because the project would result in minimal emissions that do not exceed the SCAQMD's interim threshold of significance, the project's contribution to cumulative impacts is also considered minimal. The proposed project would have less than a significant long-term operational impact with implementation of the following enforceable actions, which are included as mitigation measures in accordance with Mitigation Measure 4.5-1 of the 2010 General Plan Update FPEIR: 7) Construction and Building materials shall be produced and/or manufactured locally. Use "Green Building Materials" such as materials that are resource efficient, recycled and manufactured in an environmentally friendly way including low -volatile -organic -compound (VOC) materials. S) Design all buildings to exceed California Building Code Title 24 energy standard including but not limited to any combination of: • Increased insulation. • Limit air leakage through the structure. • Incorporate Energy Star or better rated windows, space heating and cooling equipment, light fixtures, and appliances. • Landscape and develop site utilizing shade, prevailing winds and landscaping. • Install efficient lighting and lighting control systems. • Install light colored "cool" roofs and cool pavements. • Install solar or light emitting diodes (LED's) for outdoor lighting. 9) Prepare a comprehensive water conservation strategy appropriate for the project and include the following: Install water efficient landscapes and irrigation systems and devices in compliance with the City of Rancho Cucamonga Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance. Use reclaimed water for landscaping within the project if available or as required by the Cucamonga Valley Water District (CVWD). Design building to be water efficient by installing water efficient fixtures and appliances including low flow faucets, dual flush toilets and waterless urinals/water heaters.

Provide interior and exterior storage areas for recyclables and green waste in public areas. Educate employees about reducing waste and about recycling. b) The proposed project is located at the northeast corner of 6th Street and Center Avenue and proposes the subdivision of the project site into three parcels and the development of three industrial buildings (two single -tenant buildings and one multi -tenant building) on 5.26 acres of land in the General Industrial (GI) District, which is consistent with the General Plan. No other applicable plans, policies, or regulations adopted for the purpose of reducing GHG emission apply to the project. The 2010 General Plan Update includes adopted policies and Standard Conditions that respond to the Attorney General and the California Air Pollution Control Officers Association (CAPCOA). The General Plan policies and Standard Conditions guide infill and sustainable development reliant on pedestrian connections, re -use and rehabilitation of existing structures, link transportation opportunities, promote development that is sensitive to natural resources and incentivizes denser mixed use projects that maximize diverse opportunities. The proposed project includes water efficient landscaping, shade trees, and walkways that provide accessibility to public sidewalks and therefore is consistent with the sustainability and climate change policies of the General Plan. The General Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report (FPEIR) analyzed the impacts of GHG's and determined that GHG emissions would be cumulatively considerable, which would be a significant, unavoidable adverse cumulative impact. A Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council. Based on the Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Impact Study (RK Engineering Group, Inc., December 7, 2014), no significant impacts to GHGs from short- term, construction impacts or long-term; operational impacts would occur as a result of the project. Because the project would result in minimal emissions that do not exceed the SCAQMD's interim threshold of significance, the project's contribution to GHGs from short- term construction and long-term operational cumulative impacts is also considered minimal. With implementation of the mitigation measures listed in subsection a), less than significant impacts would occur as a result of the project. In addition, the proposed project would not hinder the State's GHG reduction goals established by AB 32 and therefore would be less than a significant impact. 8. HAZARDS AND WASTE MATERIALS.

Comments: a) Development within the City may utilize or generate hazardous materials or wastes. This is usually associated with individual households, small business operations, and maintenance activities like paints, cleaning solvents, fertilizers, and.motor oil or through construction activities that would use paints, solvents, acids, curing compounds, grease, and oils. These materials would be stored and used at individual sites. The proposed project is located at the northeast corner of 6th Street and Center Avenue and proposes the subdivision of the project site into three parcels and the development of three industrial buildings (two single -tenant buildings and one multi -tenant building) on 5.26 acres of land in the General Industrial (GI) District. Parcel 1 is 3.35 acres and will contain Building 1, a four tenant multi -tenant industrial building totaling 63,459 square feet. Parcel 2 is 0.92 acres and will contain Building 2 totaling 17,709 square feet. Parcel 3 is 0.89 acres and, will contain Building 3 totaling 13,708 square feet. The project site is vacant and is characterized by the existing industrial/warehouse buildings to the north, east, and south, and the multi -tenant industrial complex to the west. The City participates in a countywide interagency coalition, which is considered a full service Hazardous Materials Division that is more comprehensive than any other in the State. The City has an Emergency Operations Plan that meets State and Federal requirements and is in the process of updating the approved 2005 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan. Compliance with Federal, State, and local regulations concerning the storage and handling of hazardous materials and/or waste will reduce the potential for significant impacts to a level less -than -significant. Therefore, no adverse impacts are expected. b) The proposed project does not include the use of hazardous materials or volatile fuels. The City participates in a countywide interagency coalition, which is considered a full service Hazardous Materials Division that is more comprehensive than any other in the State.

Therefore, no adverse impacts are expected. c) The project site is not located within % mile of a sensitive 'receptor. Typically, the uses proposed do not create objectionable odors. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. d) The proposed project is not listed as a hazardous waste or substance materials site. Site inspections in February 2016 did not reveal the presence of discarded drums or illegal dumping of hazardous materials. Therefore, no impact is anticipated. e) The site is located within an airport land use plan (the Ontario Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan [ALUCP]) according to General Plan. Figure PS-7 and General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.8-1, and the site is within 2 miles of a public airport. The project site is located approximately 1.7 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport and is offset north of the flight path. Additionally, the project is located within the Airspace Protection Area (FAA Obstruction Area) according to the General Plan Figure PS-7'and General Plan FPEIR Exhibit 4.8-1, and development within this protection area must comply with FAR Part 77 regarding building height limitations. Building heights on -site will not exceed 35 feet from finish grade, which is below the height limits prescribed .in the ALUCP. Per the ONT ALUCP, a real estate disclosure is required. No adverse impact is anticipated. f) There are no private airstrips within the City. The nearest private airstrip, Cable Airport, is located approximately 2.5 miles west of the City's westerly limits. Therefore, no impact is anticipated. g) The City has a developed roadway network that provides emergency access and evacuation routes to existing development. New development will be located on a site that has access to existing roadways. The City's Emergency Operation Plan, which is updated every 3 years, includes policies and procedures to be administered by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in the event of a disaster. Because the project includes at least two points of public street access and is required to comply with all applicable City codes, including local fire ordinances, no adverse impacts are anticipated. h) Rancho Cucamonga faces the greatest ongoing threat from wind -driven fires in the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone found in the northern part of the City; however, the proposed project site is not located within a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone according to General Plan Figure PS-1. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. 9. HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY.

() () () (✓) Comments: a) Water and sewer service is provided by the Cucamonga Valley Water District (CVWD). The project is designed to connect to existing water and sewer systems. The State of California is authorized to administer various aspects of the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit under Section 402 of the Clean Water Act. The General Construction Permit treats any construction activity over 1 acre as an industrial activity, requiring a permit under the State's General NPDES permit. The State Water Resource Control Board (SWRCB), through the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), Santa Ana Region, administers these permits. Construction activities covered under the State's General Construction permit include removal of vegetation, grading, excavating, or any other activity for new development or significant redevelopment. Prior to commencement of construction of a project, a discharger must submit a Notice of Intent (NO]) to obtain coverage under the General Permit. The General Permit requires all dischargers to comply with the following during construction activities, including site clearance and grading: Develop and implement a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) that would specify Best Management Practices (BMPs) to prevent construction pollutants from contacting storm water and with the intent of keeping all products of erosion from moving off -site into receiving waters.

Perform inspections of all BMPs. Waste discharges include discharges of storm water and construction project discharges. A construction project for new development or significant redevelopment requires an NPDES permit. Construction project proponents are required to prepare an SWPPP. To comply with the NPDES, the project's construction contractor will be required to prepare an SWPPP during construction activities, and a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) for post -construction operational management of storm water runoff. The applicant has submitted a Preliminary WQMP (Madole & Associates, February 2016), which identifies BMPs to minimize the amount of pollutants, such as eroded soils, entering the drainage system after construction. Runoff from driveways, roads and other impermeable surfaces must be controlled through an on -site drainage system. BMPs include both structural and non-structural control methods. Structural controls used to manage storm water pollutant levels include detention basins, oil/grit separators, and porous pavement. Non-structural controls focus on controlling pollutants at the source, generally through implementing erosion and sediment control plans, and various Business Plans that must be developed by any businesses that store and use hazardous materials. Practices such as periodic parking lot sweeping can substantially reduce the amount of pollutants entering the storm drain system. The following mitigation measures are required to control additional storm water effluent: Construction Activities: Rev 9-29-15 1) Prior to issuance of grading permits, the permit applicant shall submit to the Building Official for approval, a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) specifically identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that shall be used on -site to reduce pollutants during construction activities entering the storm drain system to the maximum extent practical. 2) An Erosion Control Plan shall be prepared, included in the Grading Plan, and implemented for the proposed project that identifies specific measures to control on -site and off -site erosion from the time ground disturbing activities are initiated through completion of grading. This Erosion Control Plan shall include the following measures at a minimum: a) Specify the timing of grading and construction to minimize soil exposure to rainy periods experienced in Southern California, and b) An inspection and maintenance program shall be included to ensure that any erosion which does occur either on -site or off -site as a result of this project will be corrected through a remediation or restoration program within a specified time frame. 3) During 'construction, temporary berms such as sandbags or gravel dikes must be used to prevent discharge of debris or sediment from the site when there is rainfall or other runoff. 4) During construction, to remove pollutants, street cleaning will be performed priorto storm events and afterthe use of watertrucks to control dust in order to'prevent discharge of debris or sediment from the site.

Post -Construction Operational. 6) Prior to issuance of building permits, the applicant shall submit to the City Building Official for approval of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP), including a project description and identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that will be used on -site to reduce pollutants into the storm drain system to the maximum extent practicable. The WQMP shall identify the structural and non-structural measures consistent with the Guidelines for New Development and Redevelopment adopted by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in June 2004. 7) Landscaping plans shall include provisions for controlling and minimizing the use of fertilizerslpesticides!herbicides. Landscaped areas shall be monitored and maintained for at least two years to ensure adequate coverage and stable growth. Plans for these areas, including monitoring provisions for a minimum of two years, shall be submitted to the City for review and approval prior to the issuance of grading permits. b) According to CVWD, approximately 35 percent of the City's water is currently -provided from water supplies coming from the underlying Chino and Cucamonga Groundwater Basins. CVWD complies with its prescriptive water rights as managed by the Chino Basin Watermaster and will not deplete the local groundwater resource. The proposed project will not deplete groundwater supplies, nor will it interfere with recharge because it is not within an area designated as a recharge basin or spreading ground according to General Plan Figure RC-3. Development of the site will require the grading and excavation, but would not affect the existing aquifer, estimated to be about 300 to 470 feet below the ground surface. As noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.9), continued development citywide will increase water needs but will not be a significant impact. CVWD has plans to meet this increased need to the year 2030. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. c) , The project will cause changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and amount of surface water runoff because of the amount of new building and hardscape proposed on the site; however, the project will not alter the course of any stream or river. All runoff will be conveyed to existing storm drain facilities, which have been designed to handle the flows. The project design includes landscaping of all non-hardscape areas to prevent erosion. A Grading and Drainage Plan must be approved by the Building Official and City Engineer prior to issuance of grading permits. Therefore, the project will not result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off -site. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. d) The project will cause changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and amount of surface water runoff because of the amount of new building and hardscape proposed on a site; however, the project will not alter the course of any stream or river.

The project will not result insubstantial additional sources of polluted runoff. A Grading and Drainage Plan must be approved by the Building Official and City Engineer prior to issuance of grading permits. Therefore, increase in runoff from the site will not result in flooding on- or off -site. Therefore, no impacts are anticipated, f) Grading activities associated with the construction period could result in a temporary increase in the amount of suspended solids in surface flows during a concurrent storm event, thus resulting in surface water quality impacts. The site is for new development/significant redevelopment; therefore, is required to comply with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) to minimize water pollution. With implementation of the mitigation measures specified under subsection a), less than significant impacts are anticipated. 8) Prior to issuance of building permits, the applicant shall submit to the City Building Official for approval of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP), including a project description and identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that will be used on -site to reduce pollutants into the storm drain system to the maximum extent practicable. The WQMP shall identify the structural and non-structural measures consistent with the Guidelines for New Development and Redevelopment adopted by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in June 2004. 9) Prior to issuance of grading or paving permits, the applicant shall obtain a Notice of Intent (NO]) to comply with obtaining coverage under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Construction Storm Water Permit from the State Water Resources Control Board. Evidence that this has been obtained (i.e., a copy of the Waste Discharger's Identification Number) shall be submitted to the City Building Official for coverage under the NPDES, General Construction Permit. 10) The developer shall implement the BMPs identified in the Preliminary Water Quality Management Plan (Madole & Associates, February 2016) to reduce construction pollutants from entering the storm drain system to the maximum extent practical. g) The project site is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area according to General Plan Figure PS-5. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. h) The project site is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area according to General Plan Figure PS-5. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. The Rancho Cucamonga area is flood protected by an extensive storm drain system designed to adequately convey floodwaters from a 100-year storm event. The system is substantially improved and provides an integrated approach for regional and local drainage Rev 9-29-15 E, F —66 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga .

This existing system includes several debris dams and levees north of the City, spreading grounds, concrete -lined channels, and underground storm drains as shown in General Plan Figure PS-6. The project site is not located within a 100-year flood hazard area according to General Plan Figure PS-5. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. There are no oceans, lakes, or reservoirs near the project site; therefore impacts from seiche and tsunami are not anticipated. The Rancho Cucamonga area sits at the base of the steep eastern San Gabriel Mountains whose deep canyons were cut by mountain streams. Numerous man-made controls have been constructed to reduce the mudflow impacts to the level of non -significance within the City. This existing system includes several debris dams and levees north of the City, and spreading grounds both within and north of the City. 10. LAND USE AND PLANNING.

The Plan shall depict the location of the construction equipment and how the noise from this equipment would be mitigated during construction. 2) Business operations shall maintain a noise level at 60dB or less during the hours of 10 p.m. until 7 p.m. No loading and unloading activities including opening, closing, or other handling of boxes, crates, containers, building materials, garbage cans, or other similar objects between the hours of 10 p.m. and 7 p.m. in a manner which would cause a noise disturbance to residential areas. 3) During all project site excavation and grading, the project contractors shall equip all construction equipment, fixed or mobile, with properly operating and maintained mufflers consistent with the manufacturers' standards. 4) The project contractor shall place all stationary construction equipment so that emitted noise is directed away from sensitive receptors nearest the project site. 5) The construction contractor shall locate equipment staging in areas that will create the greatest distance between construction -related noise sources and noise -sensitive receptors nearest the project site -during all project construction. 6) The construction contractor shall change the timing and/or sequence of the noisiest construction operations to avoid sensitive times of the day. 7) During construction, the contractor shall ensure all construction equipment is equipped with appropriate noise attenuating devices. 8) Idling equipment shall be turned off when not in use. 9) Equipment shall be maintained so that vehicles and their loads are secured from rattling and banging. b) The normal operating uses associated with this type of project normally do not induce ground borne vibrations. Construction related vibration may create short term noise and vibration impacts. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. c) The primary source of ambient noise levels in Rancho Cucamonga is traffic. The proposed project is located at the northeast corner of 6th Street and Center Avenue and proposes the subdivision of the project site into three parcels and the development of three industrial buildings (two single -tenant buildings and -one multi -tenant building) on 5.26 acres of land in the General Industrial (GI) District. Because the project will not significantly increase traffic as analyzed in Section 16 Transportation/Traffic; it will likely not increase ambient Rev 9-29-15 E, F —69 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 37 Lela Than SigniFlcanl Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Significant With Utigatmn Than significant No Impact Incur oratao I Impact I Impact noise levels within the vicinity of the project. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. d) The General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.12) indicates that during a construction phase, on -site stationary sources, heavy-duty construction vehicles, and construction equipment, will generate noise exceeding City standards. The following measures are provided to mitigate the short-term noise impacts: 10) Construction or grading shall not take.place between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any time on Sunday or a national holiday. 11) Construction or grading noise levels shall not exceed the standards specified in Development Code Section 17.66.050, as measured at the property line. Developer shall hire a consultant to perform weekly noise level monitoring as specified in Development Code Section 17.66.050. Monitoring at other times may be required by the Building Official. Said consultant shall report their findings to the Building Official within 24 hours; however, if noise levels exceed the above standards, then the consultant shall immediately notify the Building Official. If noise levels exceed the above standards, then construction activities shall be reduced in intensity to a level of compliance with above noise standards or halted. The preceding mitigation measures will reduce the disturbance created by on -site construction equipment but do not address the potential impacts because of the transport of construction materials and debris. The following mitigation measures shall then be required: 12) Haul truck deliveries shall not take place between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m, on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any tirri Sunday or a national holiday. Additionally, if heavy trucks used for hauling would exceed 100 daily trips (counting both to and from the construction site), then the developer shall prepare a noise mitigation plan denoting any construction traffic haul routes and include appropriate noise mitigation measures. To the extent feasible, the plan shall denote haul routes that do not pass sensitive land uses or residential dwellings. e) ' Although the site is located within the ONTALUCP, and is within 2 miles of a public airport, it is not subject to Noise Impact Zones as indicated in the ONT ALUCP. The Project is located approximately 1.7 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport and is offset north of the flight path. The Noise Impact Analysis (Vista Environmental, March 26, 2016) identified that the project would not expose persons to noise levels to excessive noise levels and that no mitigation measures were necessary. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. f) The nearest private airstrip, Cable Airport, is located approximately 2.5 miles to the west of the City's westerly limits. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated.

POPULATION AND HOUSING. Would the project: a) Induce substantial population growth in an area, either () () () (✓) directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)? b) Displace substantial numbers of existing housing, () () () (✓) necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? c) Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating () () () (✓) the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? Comments: a) The project is located in a predominantly developed area and will include the subdivision of the project site into three parcels and the development of three industrial buildings (two single -tenant buildings and one multi -tenant building) on 5.26 acres of land in the General Industrial (GI) District. Construction activities at the site will be short-term and will not attract new employees to the area. Once constructed, the proposed project will have a limited number of employees; hence, will not create a demand for additional housing as a majority of the employees will likely be hired from within the City or surrounding communities. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. b) The project site is vacant and there will be no displacement of housing' or people. Therefore, no adverse impact is expected. c) The project site is vacant and there will be no displacement of housing or people. Therefore, no adverse impact is expected. 14. PUBLIC SERVICES. Would the project result in substantial adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services: a) Fire protection?

() () () (✓) Comments: a) The project site, located at the northeast corner of 6th Street and Hermosa Avenue, would be served by Fire Station #174 at 11297 Jersey Boulevard, located approximately 1.8 miles from the project site. The project will not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing facilities or cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities. Standard conditions of approvalfrom the Rev 9-29-15 E, F —71 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 39 Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially Slgnmcant with Utigat on Than Significant No Impact Incorporated Impact Impact Uniform Building and Fire Codes will be placed on the project to lessen the future demand and impacts to fire services. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. b) Additional police protection is not required as the addition of the project will not change the pattern of uses within the surrounding area and will not have a substantial increase in property to be patrolled as the project site is within an area that is regularly patrolled. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. c) The site is in a developed area currently served by the Cucamonga School District and the Chaffey Joint Union High School District. The project will be required to pay School Fees as prescribed by State law prior to the issuance of building permits. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. d) The site is in a developed area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The nearest park, Golden Oak Park located at 9345 Golden Oak Road, is located approximately 1.0 mile west of the project site. The project will not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing facilities or cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities. A standard condition of approval will require the developer to pay Park Development Fees. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. e) The proposed project will utilize existing public facilities. The site is in a developing area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The project will not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing facilities or cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities. Cumulative development within Rancho Cucamonga will increase demand for library services. According to the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.14), there will be a projected increase in library space demand but with the implementation of standard conditions the increase in Library Services would be mitigated to less than significant impact. Additionally, the Paul A. Biane Library has an additional 14,000 square foot shell of vacant library space that is planned for future Library use. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. 15. RECREATION. Would the project: a) Increase the use of existing neighborhood and regional () () () (✓) parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated? b) Does the project include recreational facilities or require () () () (✓) the construction or expansion of recreational facilities, which might have an adverse physical effect on the environment? Comments: a) The site is in a developed area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The nearest park, Golden Oak Park located at 9345 Golden Oak Road, is located approximately 1.0 mile west of the project site. A standard condition of approval will require the developer to pay Park Development Fees. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated.

Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. 16. TRANSPORTATION/TRAFFIC. Would the project: a) Conflict with an applicable plan, ordinance or policy () () () (✓) establishing measures of effectiveness for the performance of the circulation system, taking into account all modes of transportation including mass transit and non -motorized travel and relevant components of the circulation system, including but not limited to intersections, streets, highways and freeways, pedestrian and bicycle paths, and mass transit? b) Conflict with an applicable congestion management () () () (✓) program, including, but not limited to a level of service standards and travel demand measures, or other standards established by the county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways? c) Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including either () () () (✓) _ an increase in traffic levels or a change in location that result in substantial safety risks? d) Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature ()• () () (✓) (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? e) Result in inadequate emergency access? () () () (✓) f) Conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs () () () (✓) regarding public transit, bicycle, or pedestrian facilities, or otherwise decrease the performance or safety of such facilities? Comments: a) A Trip Generation, Distribution and Assignment Analysis (Transpogroup, March 24, 2016) was prepared for the project. The three proposed industrial/warehouse buildings totaling 94,876 square feet of floor area would generate approximately 414 daily trips, and 38 a.m. peak hour trips, and 44 p.m. peak hour trips. It is assumed that a majority of the project's peak hour traffic would be associated with employees and visitors destined to/from the proposed project. Most warehousing truck related traffic occurs outside of the peak hours.

As noted in the General Plan FPEIR (Section 4.16), continued development will contribute to the traffic load in, the Rancho Cucamonga area, The proposed project is consistent with the -General Plan for which the FPEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated. The project is in an area that is mostly developed with street improvements existing or included in project design. The project will not create a substantial increase in the number of vehicle trips, traffic volume, or congestion at intersections. The project site will be required to provide street improvements (curb, gutter and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the site per City roadway standards. In addition, the City -has established a Transportation Development fee that must be paid by the applicant prior to issuance of building permits. Fees are used to fund roadway improvements necessary to support adequate traffic circulation. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. b) In November 2004, San Bernardino County voters passed the Measure I extension which requires local jurisdictions to impose appropriate fees on development for their fair share toward regional transportation improvement projects. On May 18, 2005, the City of Rancho Cucamonga adopted a Comprehensive Transportation Fee Schedule updating these development impact fees. As a result, the San Bernardino County Congestion Management Agency waived the Congestion Management Plan (CMP) Traffic Impact Analysis reporting requirement. This project will be required, as a condition of approval, to pay the adopted transportation development fee prior to issuance of building permit. The project is in an area that is mostly developed with all street improvements existing. The project will not negatively impact the level of service standards on adjacent arterials. The project will be required to provide street improvements (curb, gutter, and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the site. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. c) Located approximately 1.8 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport, the site is offset north of the flight path and will not change air traffic patterns. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. d) The project is in an area that is mostly developed. The project will be required to provide street improvements (curb, gutter, and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the site. The project design does not include any sharp curves or dangerous intersections or farming uses. The project will, therefore, not create a substantial increase in hazards because of a design feature. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. e) The project will be designed to provide access for all emergency vehicles during construction and upon completion of the project and will therefore not create an inadequate emergency access. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. f) The proposed project is located at the northeast corner of 6th Street and Center Avenue and proposes the subdivision of the project site.into three parcels and the development of three industrial buildings (two single -tenant buildings and one multi -tenant building) on 5.26 acres of land in the General Industrial (GI) District. The project design provides typical features to support transportation and vehicle trip reduction (e.g., bus bays, bicycle racks, carpool parking, etc.), including local infrastructure (e.g., streets, sidewalks, and traffic/pedestrian signals), level topography, supporting transportation, and vehicle trip reduction. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated.

UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS. Would the project: a) Exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the () () () (✓) applicable Regional Water Quality Control Board? b) Require or. result in the construction of new water or () () () (✓) wastewater treatment facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects? c) Require or result in the construction of new storm water () () () (✓) drainage facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the construction, of which could cause significant environmental effects? d) Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the () () () (✓) project from existing entitlements and resources, or are new or expanded entitlements needed? e) Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment () () () (✓) provider, which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project's projected demand in addition to the provider's existing commitments? f) Be served by a landfill with sufficient permitted capacity O O O (✓) to accommodate the project's solid waste disposal needs? g) Comply with Federal, State, and local statutes and () () () (✓) regulations related to solid waste? Comments: a) The proposed project is served by the CVWD sewer system, which has waste treated by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency at the RP-1 and RP-4 treatment plants. The RP-1 capacity is sufficient to exceed the additional development within the western and southern areas of the City. The RP-4 treatment plant has a potential ultimate capacity of 28 mgd which is considered more than adequate to capacity to treat all increases in wastewater generation for buildout of the General Plan. The project is required to meet the requirements of the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board regarding wastewater. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. b) The proposed project is served by the CVWD sewer system, which has waste treated by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency at the RP-4 treatment plant located within Rancho Cucamonga and RP-1 located within City of Ontario, neither of which is at capacity. The project is required to meet the requirements of the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board regarding wastewater. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. c) All runoff will be conveyed to existing storm drain facilities, which have been designed to handle the flows. A Grading and Drainage Plan must be approved by the Building Official and City Engineer prior to issuance of grading permits. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. aj The CVWD provides water treatment, storage and distribution of domestic water to Rancho Cucamonga and portions of the cities of Ontario and Fontana, and a tract in Upland. The Rev 9-29-15 E, F —76 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 44 Less Than Significant Less Issues and Supporting Information Sources: Potentially 4nificant N/ith Mligation Than Significant Np Impact Incorporated Impact Impact current daily water usage in the CVWD service area is approximately 41.7 million gallons per day (mgd). Residential water use amounts to about 60 percent of the total water consumed. Landscaping (public and private) is the next largest consumer of water at 20 percent. Under Senate Bill 610 (SB 610), Water Supply Assessments are required for projects that exceed the following sizes: 1) Residential development of more than 500 dwelling units; 2) shipping center or business establishment employing more than 1,000 persons or having more than 500,000 square feet; 3) commercial office buildings employing more than 1,000 persons or having more than 250,000 square feet; 4) hotel or motel having more than 500 rooms; 5) industrial, manufacturing, processing plant, or industrial park housing more than 1,000 persons, occupying more than 40 acres of land, or having more than 650,000 square feet; 6) mixed use project including one or more of the projects specified above; 7) any other project that would demand an amount of water equivalent to or greater than the amount of water required by a 500-dwelling unit project; and 8) any project that accounts for an increase of 10 percent or more in the number of existing service connections for a public water system. Under SB 221, a Water Supply Assessment is required when: 1) A project that is a residential development of more than 500 dwelling units; 2) a project that accounts for an increase of 10 percent or more in the number of existing service connections for a public water systern;'and 3) applies to development agreements that Include such subdivision. There is currently a sufficient water supply available to the City of Rancho Cucamonga to serve this project. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. e) The proposed project is served by the CVWD sewer system, which has waste treated by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency at the RP-4 treatment plant located within Rancho Cucamonga and RP-1 located 'within City of Ontario, neither of which is at capacity. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. f) Solid waste disposal will be provided by the current City contracted hauler who disposes the refuse at a permitted landfill with sufficient capacity to handle the City's solid waste disposal needs. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated. g) This project complies with Federal, State, and local statutes and regulations regarding solid waste.. The City of Rancho Cucamonga continues to implement waste reduction procedures consistent with AB 939. Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated.

MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the () (✓) () ( ) quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a, plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal, or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? b) Does the project have impacts that are individually () () () . (✓) limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable' means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects,, and the effects of probable future projects)? c) Does the project have environmental effects that will () (✓) () ( ) cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Comments: a) The site is not located in an area of sensitive biological resources as identified on the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan Figure RC-4. Additionally, the area'surrounding the site is developed. A Habitat SuitabilityEvaluation (Ecological Sciences, March 11, 2016) was prepared for the project site. No special status plant or animal species were detected on the project site. There were also no jurisdictional resources observed on the project site. Although no native habitat types are present on the project site, and no listed species are expected to occur due to the absence of suitable habitat, the potential presence of special -status species (e.g., burrowing owl) may impose some degree of constraint to development depending upon the nature of both direct and indirect impact on these resources, as well as on the particular species and seasonal timing of construction activities. Based on previous development and street improvements, it is unlikely that any endangered or rare species would inhabit the site. Mitigation measures have been included requiring nesting bird and burrowing owl surveys to be conducted prior to approval of a grading plan. With the implementation of these mitigation measures, no impacts are anticipated. b) If the proposed project were approved, then the applicant would be required to develop the site in accordance with the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan. The 2010 General Plan was adopted along with the certification of a Program FEIR, Findings of Fact, and a Statement of Overriding Considerations for significant adverse environmental effects of build -out in the City and Sphere -of -Influence. The City made findings that adoption of the General Plan would result in significant adverse effects to Aesthetics, Agriculture and Forest Resources, Air Quality, Climate Change and Mineral Resources. 'Mitigation measures were adopted for each of these resources; however, they would not reduce impacts to less -than -significant levels. As such, the City adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations balancing the benefits of development under the General Plan Update against the significant unavoidable adverse impacts (CEQA Guidelines Section 15092 and 15096(h)). These benefits include less overall traffic volumes by developing mixed -use Rev 9-29-15 E, F —78 Initial Study for DRC2016-00268 and SUBTPM19863 City of Rancho Cucamonga Page 46 projects that will be pedestrian friendly and conservation of valuable natural open space. With these findings and the Statement of Overriding Considerations, no further discussion or evaluation of cumulative impacts is required. c) Development of the site under the proposed land use change would not cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly. The InitialStudy identifies construction -related emissions of criteria pollutants as having a potentially significant impact. As prescribed by SCAQMD, an Air Quality, Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Health Risk Assessment Impact Analysis (Vista Environmental, March 26, 2016) that utilizes CaIEEMod (Version 2013.2.2) to evaluate short-term construction emissions for Regional and localized significant thresholds, long-term operational emissions, operation emissions for localized significant thresholds, and Greenhouse Gas Emissions. As stated in the Air Quality Section, proposed mitigation measures would further reduce emission levels to less than significant levels. Additionally, impacts resulting from air quality would be short-term and would cease once construction activities were completed. Mitigation measures contained in this Initial Study will ensure impacts are at less -than -significant levels. EARLIER ANALYSES Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, one or more effects have been adequately analyzed in an earlier PER or Negative Declaration per Section 15063(c)(3)(D). The effects identified above for this project were within the scope of and adequately analyzed in the following earlier document(s) pursuant to applicable legal standards, and such effects were addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis.

Resources 1) Three days prior to the removal of vegetation PD B Review of plans B 2/4 or ground -disturbing activities, a breeding bird survey that is in conformance with the Migratory Bird Act shall be required to determine whether nesting is occurring. Occupied nests shall not be disturbed unless a qualified biologist verifies through non- invasive methods that either (a) the adult birds have not begun egg -laying or incubation; or (b) the juveniles from 'the occupied nests are foraging independently and are capable of independent survival. If the biologist is unable to verify one of the above conditions, then no disturbance shall occur within 300 feet of non - raptor nests, and within 5,000 feet of raptor nests, during the breeding season to avoid abandonment of the young. If nests are discovered, they shall be avoided through the establishment of an appropriate buffer setback, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. The temporary "no construction" area shall be maintained until the nest has completed its cycle, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. Once the nest cycle is complete and all nestlings have fledged and have left the nest, construction in the area may resume. 2) Perform a Burrowing Owl Survey that is in PD B Review of plans B 2/4 conformance with the Department of Fish and Wildlife Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation and submit the written report outlining the findings to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and the Planning Department within 30 days of groundbreaking activity.

Reports) of the CDFW Staff Report. Results of the pre -construction survey shall be provided to CDFW and the City. If the pre -construction survey does not identify burrowing owls on the project site, then no further mitigation is required. If burrowing owls are found to be utilizing the project site during the pre -construction survey, measures shall be developed by the qualified biologist in coordination with CDFW to avoid Impacting occupied burrows during the nesting period. These measures shall be based on the most current CDFW protocols and will at minimum include establishment of buffer setbacks from occupied burrows and owl monitoring. If ground -disturbing activities are delayed or suspended for more than 30 days after the pre -construction survey, the site shall be resurveyed for owls. • During the non -breeding season from September 1 through January 31, if burrows are occupied by migratory or non - migratory resident burrowing owls during a pre -construction survey, burrow exclusion and/or closure may be used to exclude owls from those burrows. Burrow exclusion and/or closure should only be conducted by a qualified wildlife biologist in coordination with CDFW using the most current CDFW guidelines. • During the avian nesting season from February 1 through August 31, if nests are discovered, they shall be avoided through establishment of an appropriate buffer Page 6 of 16 m i 07 V Mitigation Measures No. / Responsible Monitoring Timing of Method of Verified Sanctions for Implementing Action for Monitoring Frequency Verification Verification Date/initials Non -Compliance setback, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. The temporary "no construction" area would have to be maintained until the nest has completed its cycle, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. Once the nest cycle is complete and all nestlings have fledged and have left the nest, construction in the area may resume.

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 E, F —99 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-04 TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP SUBTPM19683 — BRUCE KARISH January 25, 2017 Page 3 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; 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 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 hereby adopts 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 adopts 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 Planning Commission'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.

Biological Resources 1) Three days prior to the removal of vegetation or ground -disturbing activities, a breeding bird survey that is in conformance with the Migratory Bird Act shall be required to determine whether nesting is occurring. Occupied nests shall not be disturbed unless a qualified biologist verifies through non-invasive methods that either (a) the adult birds have not begun egg -laying or incubation; or (b) the juveniles from the occupied nests are foraging independently and are capable of independent survival. If the biologist is unable to verify one of the above conditions, then no disturbance shall occur within 300 feet of non -raptor nests, and within 5,000 feet of raptor nests, during the breeding season to avoid abandonment of the young. If nests are discovered, they shall be avoided through the establishment of an appropriate buffer setback, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. The temporary "no construction" area shall be maintained until the nest has completed its cycle, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. Once the nest cycle is complete and all nestlings have fledged and have left the nest, construction in the area may resume. 2) Perform a Burrowing Owl Survey that is in conformance with the Department of Fish and Wildlife Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation and submit the written report outlining the findings to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and the Planning Department within 30 days of groundbreaking activity. The survey shall include a habitat assessment, survey and impact analysis. The E, F —103 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-04 TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP SUBTPM19683 — BRUCE KARISH January 25, 2017 Page 7 Burrowing Owl Survey shall follow the following protocol: Burrowing Owl Survey methodology shall be based on Appendix D (Breeding and Non -breeding Season Surveys and Reports) of the CDFW Staff Report. Results of the pre- construction survey shall be provided fo CDFW and the City. If the pre -construction survey does not identify burrowing owls on the project site, then no further mitigation is required. If burrowing owls are found to be utilizing the project site during the pre -construction survey, measures shall be developed by the qualified biologist in coordination with CDFW to avoid Impacting occupied burrows during the nesting period. These measures shall be based on the most current CDFW protocols and will at minimum include establishment of buffer setbacks from occupied burrows and owl monitoring. If ground -disturbing activities are delayed or suspended for more than 30 days after the pre -construction survey, the site shall be resurveyed for owls. During the non -breeding season from September 1 through January 31, if burrows are occupied by migratory or non- migratory resident burrowing owls during a pre - construction survey, burrow exclusion and/or closure may be used to exclude owls from those burrows. Burrow exclusion and/or closure should only be conducted by a qualified wildlife biologist in coordination with CDFW using the most current CDFW guidelines. During the avian nesting season from February 1 through August 31, if nests are discovered, they shall be avoided through establishment of an appropriate buffer setback, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. The temporary "no construction" area would have to be maintained until the nest has completed its cycle, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. Once the nest cycle is complete and all nestlings have fledged and have left the nest, construction in the area may resume. Cultural Resources 1) If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified archaeologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. With the assistance of the archaeologist, the City of Rancho Cucamonga will: Enact interim measures to protect undesignated sites from demolition or significant modification without an opportunity for the City to establish its archaeological value. E, F —104 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-04 TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP SUBTPM19683 — BRUCE KARISH January 25, 2017 Page 8 Consider establishing provisions to require incorporation of archaeological sites within new developments, using their special qualities as a theme or focal point. Pursue educating the public about the archaeological heritage of the area. Prepare a mitigation plan consistent with Section 21083.2 Archaeological resources of CEQA to eliminate adverse project effects on significant, important, and unique prehistoric resources, including but not limited to, avoiding archaeological sites, capping or covering sites with soil, planning the site as a park or green space or paying an in -kind mitigation fee. Prepare a technical resources management report, documenting the inventory, evaluation, and proposed mitigation of resources within the project area. Submit one copy of the completed report with original illustrations, to the San Bernardino County Archaeological Information Center for permanent archiving. 2) If any paleontological resource (i.e. plant or animal fossils) are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified paleontologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. The paleontologist shall submit a report of findings that will also provide specific recommendations regarding further mitigation measures (i.e., paleontological monitoring) that may be appropriate. Where mitigation monitoring is appropriate, the program must include, but not be limited to, the following measures: • Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow the rapid removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to the site full-time during the interval of earth -disturbing activities. • Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded, divert earth -disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has completed salvage. If construction personnel make the discovery, the grading contractor should immediately divert construction and notify the monitor of the find. • Prepare, identify, and curate all recovered fossils for documentation in the summary report and transfer to an appropriate depository (i.e., San Bernardino County Museum). • Submit summary report to City of Rancho Cucamonga. Transfer collected specimens with a copy of the report to San Bernardino County Archaeological Information Center for permanent archiving.

' Biological Resources 1) Three days prior to the removal of vegetation or ground -disturbing activities, a breeding bird survey that is in conformance with the Migratory Bird Act shall be required to determine whether nesting is occurring. Occupied nests shall not be disturbed unless a qualified biologist verifies through non-invasive methods that either (a) the adult birds have not begun egg -laying or incubation; or (b) the juveniles from the occupied nests are foraging independently and are capable of independent survival, If the biologist is unable to verify one of the above conditions, then no disturbance shall occur within 300 feet of non -raptor nests, and within 5,OOO feet of raptor nests, during the breeding season to avoid abandonment of the young. If nests are discovered, they shall be avoided through the establishment of an appropriate buffer setback, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. The temporary "no construction" area shall be maintained until the nest has completed its cycle, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. Once the nest cycle is complete and all nestlings have fledged and have left the nest, construction in.the area may resume. 2) Perform a Burrowing Owl Survey that is in conformance with the Department of Fish and Wildlife Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation and submit the written report outlining the findings to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and the Planning Department within 30 days of groundbreaking activity. The survey shall include a habitat assessment, survey and impact analysis. The Burrowing Owl Survey shall follow the, following protocol: Burrowing Owl Survey methodology shall be based on Appendix D (Breeding and Non -breeding Season Surveys and Reports) of the CDFW Staff Report. Results of the pre- construction survey shall be provided to CDFW and the City. If the pre -construction survey does not identify burrowing E, F —126 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-03 DESIGN REVIEW DRC2016-00268 — BRUCE KARISH January 25, 2017 Page 7 owls on the project site, then no further mitigation is required. If burrowing owls are found to be utilizing the project site during the pre -construction survey, measures shall be developed by the qualified biologist in coordination with CDFW to avoid Impacting occupied burrows during the nesting period. These measures shall be based on the most current CDFW protocols and will at minimum include establishment of buffer setbacks from occupied burrows and owl monitoring. If ground -disturbing activities are delayed or suspended for more than 30 days after the pre -construction survey, the site shall be resurveyed for owls. During the non -breeding season from September 1 through January 31, if burrows are occupied by migratory or non- migratory resident burrowing owls during a pre - construction survey, burrow exclusion and/or closure may 'be used to exclude owls from those burrows. Burrow exclusion and/or closure should only be conducted by a qualified wildlife biologist in coordination with CDFW using the most current CDFW guidelines. During the avian nesting season from February 1 through August 31, if nests are discovered, they shall be avoided through establishment of an appropriate buffer setback, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. The temporary "no construction" area would have to be maintained until the nest has completed its cycle, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. Once the nest cycle is complete and all nestlings have fledged and have left the nest, construction in the area may resume. Cultural Resources 1) If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified archaeologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. With the assistance .of the archaeologist, the City of Rancho Cucamonga will: Enact interim measures to protect undesignated sites from demolition or significant modification without an opportunity for the City to establish its archaeological value. Consider establishing provisions to require incorporation of archaeological sites within new developments, using their special qualities as a theme or focal point. Pursue educating the public about the archaeological heritage of the area. E, F —127 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-03 DESIGN REVIEW DRC2016-00268 — BRUCE KARISH January 25, 2017 Page 8 Prepare a mitigation plan consistent with Section 21083.2 Archaeological resources of CEQA to eliminate adverse project effects on significant, important, and unique prehistoric resources, including but not limited to, avoiding archaeological sites, capping or covering sites with soil, planning the site as a park or green space or paying an in -kind mitigation fee. Prepare a technical resources management report, documenting the inventory, evaluation, and proposed mitigation of resources within the project area. Submit one copy of the completed report with original illustrations, to the San Bernardino County Archaeological Information Center for permanent archiving. 2) If any paleontological resource (i.e. plant or animal fossils) are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified paleontologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. The paleontologist shall submit a report of findings that will also provide specific recommendations regarding further mitigation measures (i.e., paleontological monitoring) that may be appropriate. Where mitigation monitoring is appropriate, the program must include, but not be limited to, the following measures: • Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow the rapid removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to the site full-time during the interval of earth -disturbing activities. • Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded, divert earth -disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has completed salvage. If construction personnel make the discovery, the grading contractor should immediately divert construction and notify the monitor of the find. • Prepare, identify, and curate all recovered fossils for, documentation in the summary report and transfer to an appropriate depository (i.e., San Bernardino County Museum).• • Submit summary report to City of Rancho Cucamonga. Transfer collected specimens with a copy of the report to San Bernardino County Archaeological Information Center for permanent archiving. Geology and Soils 1) The site shall. be treated with water or other soil -stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) daily to reduce PM,o emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403 or re -planted with drought resistant landscaping as soon as possible. E, F —128 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-03 DESIGN REVIEW DRC2016-00268 — BRUCE KARISH January 25, 2017 Page 9 2) Frontage public streets shall be swept according to a schedule established by the City to reduce PM10 emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil off -site. Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction. 3) Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph to minimize PM10 emissions from the site during such episodes. 4) Chemical soil -stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PM,o emissions.

This item is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the attached Resolution revoking approval of Conditional Use Permit 97-23. BACKGROUND On December 10, 1997, the Planning Commission approved Conditional Use Permit 97-23 for Twins Sports Bar and Grill, to permit the establishment of a night club and sports bar, with entertainment, in an existing 7,930 square foot building located on the north side of Foothill Boulevard, east of Hermosa Avenue. That application was revised by the Planning Commission on October 11, 2000, to expand the hours of operation, and again on October 10, 2001 to allow service to patrons 18 years and older. Twins Sports Bar and Grill operated at that location until 2008, when the club changed names to Rock the Keys Dueling Piano Bar and Night Club. Rock the Keys ceased operation on July 13, 2013, and since then the building has been empty. CUP 97-23 was approved subject to a condition that certain public improvements be constructed along the project's street frontage. In 2000, the City accepted an Improvement Agreement and Bonds #67825 to secure performance of the condition of approval requiring the construction of certain public improvements. The improvements were never built, the business closed, and the City still holds the Improvement Agreement and Bonds. On October 26, 2016, the Planning Commission approved Design Review DRC2016-00006 for the development of "The Vintner" a 182-unit apartment complex, which includes the project site for CUP 97-23 and also includes conditions that require the new development to construct the full improvements along both Foothill Boulevard and Hermosa Avenue. On January 10, 2017, the owners of the subject property submitted a letter requesting rescission of CUP 97-23 for the purpose of allowing the City to release the Improvement Agreement and Bonds #67825; this request was promulgated by the parties and investors involved in financing the approved apartment complex. On January 18, 2017, the City Council authorized the City Engineer to release the Improvement Agreement and Bonds for Conditional Use Permit 97-23. Item G —1 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT REVOCATION DRC2017-00031 (FOR CUP 97-23) — SAMIR tAKEES January 25, 2017 Page 2 ANALYSIS A. Conditional Use Permit Revocation: Development Code Section 17.08.050 provides procedures for securing punitive revocation or modification of previously approved land use entitlements. The designated approval authority shall hold a public hearing to revoke or modify an application, entitlement, or other approval. Revocations have the effect of terminating the entitlement and denying the privileges granted by the original approval. Modifications allow for a change to the operational characteristics rather than revoking an entitlement. B. Reviewing Authority Action and Findings: A land use entitlement or permit may be revoked or modified by the designated approval authority that originally approved the entitlement if any of the following findings can be made: Circumstances under which the entitlement or permit was granted have been changed by the applicant to a degree that one or more of the findings contained in "the original permit can no longer be met. The applicant has ceased operation of the land uses permitted under CUP 97-23 and the project site is included within the project area of a subsequently approved 182-unit apartment complex. 2. The entitlement or permit was issued, in whole or in part, on the basis of a misrepresentation or omission of a material statement in the application, or in the applicant's testimony presented during the public hearing, for the entitlement or permit. The land use permitted under CUP 97-23 operated for approximately 15 years and was not issued on the basis of any misrepresentation. 3. One or more of the conditions of the permit have not been substantially fulfilled or have been violated. All applicable conditions of approval for CUP 97-23 were satisfied prior to initiation of the approved land use. 4. The use or structure for which the permit was granted has ceased to exist or has lost its legal nonconforming use status. This approved night club use has ceased operation and the subsequent redevelopment of the project site has been approved, which will require further bonding for street improvements along the north side of Foothill Boulevard, east of Hermosa Avenue, and along the east side of Hermosa Avenue, north of Foothill Boulevard. 5. The improvement authorized in compliance with the permit is in violation of any code, law, ordinance, regulation, or statute. Approval of the land use and conditions of approval were consistent with the Development Code. 6. The improvementluse allowed by the permit has become detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or the manner of operation constitutes or is creating a public nuisance. The improvements permitted under CUP 97-23 have not become detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, nor has the manner of operation constituted or created a public nuisance; however, because the existing night club, liquor store, and motel buildings are currently vacant they could become a public nuisance should CUP 97-23 not be revoked, the Improvement Agreement and Bonds #67825 not be released, and the approved apartment complex not be built. Item G —2 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT REVOCATION DRC2017-00031 (FOR CUP 97-23) — SAMIR LAKEES January 25, 2017 Page 3 C. Environmental Assessment: The Planning Department Staff has determined that the project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines. A project is exempt from CEQA under Section 15061(b)(3) where the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. In this case, the project involves the revocation of a previously approved Conditional Use Permit for the operation of a night club to allow for the release of an Improvement Agreement and Bond conditioned upon approval of said CUP. Release of the Improvement Agreement and Bond will permit the bonding and development of a subsequently approved apartment complex to complete all necessary and conditioned right- of-way improvements. Additionally, the Planning Department Staff has determined that the project is statutorily exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines. The project qualifies under Section 15270(a) of the State CEQA Guidelines for projects which are disapproved because the Planning Commission's revocation of the approved Conditional Use Permit is a disapproval of the project which prevents the reestablishment of the approved land use. 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.

Related File: Conditional Use Permit 97-23 (also Conditional Use Permit 94-08 and Entertainment Permit 94-01 previously approved) BACKGROUND: The applicant is proposing to use a vacant building as a night club and sports bar. The building was the site of the original "Club 66" night club that operated in the City for 13 years. After "Club 66" ceased operation, another night club, 'The Peppermint Elephant' used the facility until about 1986. In 1994, the Planning Commission approved a Conditional Use Permit and Entertainment Permit for a night club/sports bar but the business was not opened and the approvals have since expired. Many of these issues identified by staff in reviewing the previous request have been addressed by the applicant with the current project. : PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: A. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning: North - Vacant; Community Commercial, Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan (Subarea 3) South - Restaurant; Community Commercial, Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan (Subarea 3) East - Single Family Residence; Community Commercial, Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan (Subarea 3) West - Motel and convenience market; Community Commercial, Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan (Subarea 3) IB I T B Item G —5 r i� PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 97-23 & EP 97-02 - TWINS SPORTS BAR December 10, 1997 Page 2 B. General Plan Designations: Project Site - Commercial North - Commercial South - Commercial East - Commercial West - Commercial C. Site Characteristics: The site is presently developed with a 7,930 square foot building and a paved parking area. Landscape planters exist adjacent to the building. D. Parking Calculations: Number of • Number of Type Square Parking Spaces Spaces of Use Footage Ratio Reguired Provided Restaurant/Night Club 6,000 1/100 60 60 1 930 1/55 35 67 7,930 95 127 ANALYSIS: A. General: The applicant is proposing a dance floor with D.J. area within the central portion of the building with a "social bar" at the south end and a "sports bar" with pool tables and dart boards at the north end. The applicant is not currently proposing live musical or comedy performances but may wish to include such activities in the future. A complete description of the proposed activities is provided in attached Entertainment Permit application (Exhibit "F" With the establishment of the use, the applicant is proposing to bring the site up to current Code requriements. Additional parking will be provided at the rear of the site. Landscaping will be provided around the perimeter of the site as well as within the new parking area and adjacent to the building on the north, south, and west sides. A landscape planter with 5-foot high wrought iron fence will be installed in the parking area between the proposed sports bar and the existing motel and convenience mart. A 5-foot high wrought iron fence would also be provided around the perimeter of the site. Decorative treatment will be provided for the driveway entrance off Foothill Boulevard. Lighting will be provided for the building and within the parking area. The parapet along the east elevation will be extended to screen rooftop equipment and to provide a finished appearance to the wall. At the Technical Review Committee meeting, the applicant requested additional entertainment activities. This request was made after the public notice was sent to be advertised in the newspaper so it is not included in the description. If the applicant wishes to pursue additional entertainment, then'the public hearing must be re -advertised for the next available meeting. Item G —6 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 97-23 & EP 97-02 - TWINS SPORTS BAR December 10, 1997 Page 3 B. Neighborhood Compatibility: In reviewing the previously approved Conditional Use Permit and Entertainment Permit, staff identified potential conflicts between the existing motel and convenience market to the west and the proposed night club%sports bar. The motel essentially functions with month -to -month rentals and is therefore, similar in nature to an apartment building. As such, the motel is vulnerable to potential noise and outside activities associated with a sports bar operation. Also, the convenience market sells alcoholic beverages so there is potential for problems to occur in the parking area (uncontrolled outdoor consumption of alcohol) as patrons may go back and forth between the sports bar and the market. To mitigate these potential problems, installation of a landscape planter .between the sports bar and the motel/convenience market was required. The current proposal includes a 6-foot wide landscape planter with a 5-foot high wrought iron fence between the sports bar area and the motel/convenience market area. The applicant also proposes to station a security guard at the convenience market and outside the proposed sports bar to minimize potential problems. A condition of approval limits the hours of operation and the maximum noise level generated by the establishment, including any live entertainment. C. Parking Issues: The majority of the parking area is located at the north (rear) end of the building and the main entry is located along the west side of the building. Because of the distance between the parking and the entry, the applicant is proposing valet parking. This will allow the applicant to provide convenience for customers while limiting the number of people in the parking area to aide security. The main entry is also proposed to be moved northerly from it's current location to provide room for vehicle stacking on -site off of Foothill Boulevard. D. Traffic: The applicant is substantially increasing the parking capacity of the site. There are existing inherent traffic conflicts because of the close proximity of the site to Hermosa Avenue and the adjacent `convenience store. To address the increased traffic' conflicts, the Engineering Division is conditioning the applicant to install the median island on Foothill Boulevard and consolidate the three existing driveways into one shared driveway. This will prohibit left turn movements to and from the site, thereby eliminating the primary traffic conflict. E. Security Plan: The applicant proposes to have security personnel both within the building and walking the outside/parking area. Interior security will include a security guard stationed at the dance floor consistent with Entertainment Ordinance requirements. There will also be a video system to monitor the main entrance and each of the cash registers. The security plan, which has been reviewed by the Police Department, is attached as Exhibit "H." F. Hours of Operation: The applicant is requesting to operate from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. seven days a week. It is recommended that the hours initially be limited to 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 midnight Sunday through Thursday and 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. Friday and Saturday. This would decrease potential impacts upon the adjacent residential uses during the week while allowing the proposed business reasonable hours. These hours of operation are consistent with the previously approved Conditional Use Permit. The hours of operation could be modified at the six month Planning Commission monitoring review meeting per recommended Conditions of Approval 2 and 13 in the attached Resolution. Item G —7 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 97-23 & EP 97-02 - TWINS SPORTS BAR December 10, 1997 Page 4 G. Crime Statistics: Because of the concern over land use compatibility, staff requested a list of police calls received for the last two years in the surrounding area. The Police Department has provided such a list with a map locating the type of crime calls (Exhibit "I"). Note that most of the crimes occurred in the residential areas to, the north and south of the project site. Since the building has been empty for the past decade, no crime statistics were requested regarding the previous nightclubs at this address. H. Environmental Assessment: The application is exempt pursuant to Section 15301 of the State CEQA Guidelines. FACTS FOR FINDING: A. Conditional Use Permit: That the proposed use is in accord with the General Plan, the objectives of the Development Code and the Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan, and the purposes of the district in which the site is located. 2.. That the proposed use, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. 3. That the proposed use complies with each of the applicable provisions of the Development Code and the Foothill Boulevard Specific plan. B. Entertainment Permit: That the conduct of the establishment and the granting of the application would not be contrary to the public health, safety, morals, or welfare. 2. That the premises or establishment is not likely to be operated in an illegal, improper, or disorderly manner. 3. That granting the application would not create a public nuisance. 4. That the applicant, or any other person associated with him as principal or partner in a position or capacity involving partial or total control over the conduct of the business for which such permit is sought to be issued, has not been convicted in any court of competent jurisdiction or any offense involving the presentation, exhibition, or performance of any obscene show of an kind or of a felony or any crime involving the moral turpitude, nor has any approval, permit, license issued in conjunctions with the sale of alcohol or the provision of entertainment been revoked within the preceding five years. 5. That the normal operation of the premises would not interfere with the peace and quiet of the surrounding residential and commercial uses. Item G —8 0 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 97-23 & EP 97-02 - TWINS SPORTS BAR December 10, 1997 Page 5 6. That the applicant has not made any false, misleading, or fraudulent statement of material fact in the required application. In reviewing the finding for both the Conditional Use Permit and the Entertainment Permit, staff believes that the potential incompatibility between the proposed use and the adjoining uses can be addressed through the improvements and procedures proposed by the applicant and the conditions of approval contained in the resolutions for both the Conditional Use Permit and the Entertainment Permit applications. CORRESPONDENCE: This item was advertised as a public hearing in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were mailed to all property owners within a 300 foot radius of the project site.

Item G —15 The Environmental Setting/Existing Site Conditions: Currently the physical setting of 10134 W. Foothill Blvd. is 4.7 acres, the site has two operating businesses, an apartment type motel and a convince market. There is a parking lot separating the established businesses and the ten year vacant building where the proposed bar and grill resides. This 7,930 square foot vacant building was formally known as Club 66. The remainder of the property consists of open fields and one tree. A portion of the open field will be developed and used for additional parking. Proposed Land Uses: The primary goal is to develop this building and land surrounding to keep up with the current trend of Rancho Cucamonga, and make it a clean and pleasant sight. We will plant multiple trees and planters that will be irrigated. We will also construct a new parking lot, which will be located to the rear of 10134 W. Foothill Blvd. Moreover, we anticipate, the location of this parking lot should minimize traffic congestion on Foothill Blvd. The proposed use of the location commonly known as 10134 W. Foothill Blvd., is a general business commercial venture that fits within the cities commercial zone ordinances. We propose to run and operate a 21 year and over restaurant, sports bar and grill. It will include D.J. music, dining, dancing and sport watching via satellite, live band and comedy are not, at this time included; but do not want to be excluded. Our sports bar and grill will include pool tables and dart boards. Along with food we plan to serve alcohol Monday through Sunday. We plan to begin employing 25 to 35 persons, with a goal to employ 50 persons. This includes a high number of security to keep a positive atmosphere and a fully controlled environment. Our goal is also to provide Rancho Cucamonga with a clean quality location for social gathering and entertainment. At the same time, we want this establishment to reflect the City's heritage with its historical location on Route 66. Compatibility: The property to the West contains a motel and a convenience market. While most motels operate on a night -to night arrangement, the motel actually functions more like an apartment complex with week -to -week rentals. As witnessed with previous entertainment uses, bars/restaurants in close proximity to residential uses have had a tendency to create noise problems for the residents. Previously on this property, all that separated the bar and grill and the motel was a paved parking area. In recognition, to provide buffering between the uses, we will build a wall between the two sites to alleviate the headlights from shining into the motel and to minimize noise. Since the convenience market has approval by the Planning Commission to sell alcoholic beverages (distilled spirits), we will want to regulate the flow of traffic between sites, to prevent consumers from drinking in the parking lot. To achieve this we will landscape a planter between the two sites. Also, the Police recommend a security guard be stationed in the parking area in the evening, we agree, and are will staff accordingly.

First level, licensed weaponless security guards; second, door attendants and third, an operations manager that will be staffed at all times of operating hours. Our goal is to provide a clean and safe establishment for our staff and clientele and the city of Rancho Cucamonga. As an illustration, we will staff security appropriately, depending on the traffic flow of our business. Entrance and Inside: At Twin's main entrance we will place one door attendant in the day and in the evening we will add one security attendant: Their jobs include checking identification and enforcing all codes. We will have at least one security attendant at all times in the daytime hours. We will staff one security attendant on the dance floor when dancing is present. We designed our floor plan to enable us to easily identify any problems and quickly resolve them. We will add and subtract attendants depending on our occupancy. Outside and Parking Lot: Twins' outside security will consist of two security guards in a well lit parking lot at all times during the evening hours of operation. As a result, our clientele will be moving and not loitering. We will place one security attendant in front and around the convenience store, Once again to help minimize loitering and the consumption of alcoholic beverages around the store or in the parking lot. The second security guard will also patrol parking in addition to the main building. Additional Efforts: In our willingness to provide Rancho Cucamonga with a safe place of social gathering, we discussed our security ideas with Rancho Cucamonga Sheriff's Department and The Crime Prevention Unit. In summary, we will install a security camera at the main -entrance to assist in ekientele identification if a situation should call for such. To assist with any internal affairs we will also install cameras to monitor each cash register. To insure a rapid response security team, our security systems will be in constant communication with one another. Twins' entrance security, inside security, and parking lot security will use H/T (Hand Transmitter Radios). The lighting in the parking lot will have a minimum of one foot candlelight on the pavement surface. We will also tight the east side of the building. Correspondingly, we will remove all shrubs and furnish a clear walk way on the east of the building. In addition, there were suggestions of a wrought iron fence on the Southeast comer of the building facing Foothill. We agree this will add to additional security efforts and therefore we will build it. -A : +�T 'A ' `l--6.

Item G —36 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-05 REVOCATION DRC2017-00031 (OF CUP 97-23) — SAMIR LAKKEES January 25, 2017 Page 2 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 January 25, 2017, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application applies to property located at 10134 Foothill Boulevard with a street frontage of 214 feet on Foothill Boulevard and 220 feet on Hermosa Avenue and is presently improved with a closed motel, a closed liquor store, and a closed night club; and b. The property to the north is vacant and further to the north are existing single- family homes; to the east is the Villaggio on Route 66 workforce apartment complex (DRC2006- 00633), and an existing vacant single-family residential house that has been used commercially; to the south is a multi -tenant office building and restaurant (Kick Back Jacks); and to the west are commercial uses (Xtreme Autosound) and an older multi -family residential complex; and C. Following Planning Commission approval of Conditional Use Permit 97-23, the applicant commenced operation of the approved land use, the applicant subsequently submitted requests to modify both the hours of operation and to permit service to patrons 18 and older, and in July 2013 the applicant ceased operation of the night club and sports bar, including entertainment, permitted under Conditional Use Permit 97-23; and d. In 2016, the Planning Commission approved DRC2016-OOob6, a 182-unit apartment complex, a project whose project area includes the project area of Conditional Use Permit 97-23, and the adjacent liquor store, motel, and vacant land; and e. The parties and investors involved in financing the approved 182-unit apartment complex requested rescission of Conditional Use Permit 97-23 and release of Improvement Agreement and Bonds #67825 to facilitate the sale of the property and the ultimate development of the apartment complex. 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. Circumstances under which the entitlement or permit was granted have been changed by the applicant to a degree that one or more of the findings contained in the original permit can no longer be met. The applicant has ceased operation of the land uses permitted under CUP 97-23 and the project site is included within the project area of a subsequently approved 182-unit apartment complex; and b. The entitlement or permit was issued, in whole or in part, on the basis of a misrepresentation or omission of a material statement in the application, or in the applicant's testimony presented during the public hearing, for the entitlement or permit. The land use Item G —37 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-05 REVOCATION DRC2017-00031 (OF CUP 97-23) — SAMIR LAKKEES January 25, 2017 Page 3 permitted under CUP 97-23 operated for approximately 15 years and was not issued on the basis of any misrepresentation; and C. One or more of the conditions of the permit have not been substantially fulfilled or have been violated. All applicable conditions of approval for CUP 97-23 were satisfied prior to initiation of the approved land use; and d. The use or structure for which the permit was granted has ceased to exist or has lost its legal nonconforming use status. This approved night club use has ceased operation and the subsequent redevelopment of the project site has been approved, which will require further bonding for street improvements along the north side of Foothill Boulevard, east of Hermosa Avenue, and along the east side of Hermosa Avenue, north of Foothill Boulevard; and e. The improvement authorized in compliance with the permit is in violation of any code, law, ordinance, regulation, or statute. Approval of the land use and conditions of approval were consistent with the Development Code; and f. The improvement/use allowed by the permit has become detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or the manner of operation constitutes or is creating a public nuisance. The improvements permitted under CUP 97-23 have not become detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, nor has the manner of operation constituted or created a public nuisance; however, because the existing night club, liquor store, and motel buildings are currently vacant they could become a public nuisance should CUP 97-23 not be revoked, the Improvement Agreement and Bonds #67825 not be released, and the approved apartment complex not be built. 4. The Planning Department Staff has determined that the project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines. A project is exempt from CEQA under Section 15061(b)(3) where the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. In this case, the project involves the revocation of a previously approved Conditional Use Permit for the operation of a night club to allow for the release of an Improvement Agreement and Bond conditioned upon approval of said CUP. Release of the Improvement Agreement and Bond will permit the bonding and development of a subsequently approved apartment complex to complete all necessary and conditioned right-of-way improvements. Additionally, the Planning Department Staff has determined that the project is statutorily exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines. The project qualifies under Section 15270(a) of the State CEQA Guidelines for projects which are disapproved because the Planning Commissions revocation of the approved Conditional Use Permit is a disapproval of the project which prevents the reestablishment of the approved land use. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Planning Department's determination of exemption, and based on its own independent judgment, concurs in the staffs determination of exemption. 5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above, which fulfill the requirements and findings for Section 17.08.050 for Permit Revocation, this Commission hereby approves the application to revoke Conditional Use Permit 97-23 subject to each and every condition set forth below.

Surrounding Land Use and Zoning: North - Office/Warehouse Building; General Industrial (GI) District South - Office/Warehouse Building; General Industrial (GI) District East - Office Building; General Industrial (GI) District West - Office Building; General Industrial (GI) District B. General Plan Designations: Project Site - General Industrial North - General Industrial South - General Industrial East - General Industrial West - General Industrial C. Site Characteristics: The project site is a rectangular parcel of about 4.78 acres: 616 feet (north - south) by 338 feet (east -west). The site is vacant and is dominated by short grasses, shrubs, and a grouping of trees near the north property line. The property is bound on the east by Hermosa Avenue and on the south by 6th Street. To the north is a large warehouse distribution building of about 400,000 square feet and to the west is an office complex consisting of four buildings of 20,000 square H,I-1 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2016-00522 AND DRC2016-00524 — PHELAN DEVELOPMENT January 25, 2017 Page 2 feet each. Across the streets to the south and east, respectively, are a large warehouse distribution building of about 400,000 square feet and an office/warehouse complex consisting of six buildings of various sizes. The subject property is generally level with an elevation at the north and south sides of about 1,078 feet and 1,069 feet, respectively. D. Parking Calculations: Development Code Table 17.64.050-1 establishes the following parking requirements for industrial projects: Type of Use Floor Squarefeet (-- .. Proposed Building (overall) 102,530 sf Office 10,000 sf 4 per 1,000 sf 40 Warehouse 92,530 sf Varies' 44 Total Required/Total Provided 84/84 2 1. For warehouselstorage uses, the parking calculations are 1 space per 1,000 square feet for the first 20,000 square feet; 1 space per 2,000 square feet for the next 20,000 square feet; and 1 space per 4,000 square feet for floor area in excess of the first 40,000 square feet. 2. The truck trailer parking requirement is calculated separately from the standard parking requirement and is based on a ratio of one stall per dock high door. The proposed project provides 10 dock high doors and 10 trailer parking spaces. ANALYSIS A. Project Design: The applicant proposes the development of a warehouse building totaling 102,530 square feet (Exhibit B). The floor area is designed with office floor area in the extreme northeast and southeast corners of the building; each office area contains 5,000 square feet of floor area (Exhibit E); the remaining floor area is designed as warehouse floor area. A total of 10 dock high doors are provided along the western side of the building; 10 truck trailer parking spaces are provided throughout the site. A total of 84 passenger vehicle parking spaces are provided for employees and customers, which is parked at the minimum for an office/warehouse development. There will be two points of access — one via Hermosa Avenue and another via 6th Street. Landscape coverage is 12.41 percent of the project site (Exhibit D). The proposed building will be developed out of concrete tilt -up construction painted with a palette of five different colors (Exhibit F). An additional primary material will be sandblasted concrete while a secondary material will be glass panels. Key features include tower elements that project beyond the primary wall plane and above the edge of the primary parapet at all four corners and at the midpoint of .the east elevation. Glass is generously incorporated around each office area emphasizing its importance as the main entry into the building. In addition to the glazing, each tower at the offices includes a cornice, decorative medallions, and a different 'paint color. Each. office entrance will also have a metal canopy. Glass panels have also been incorporated into the office tower elements on the north, east, and south elevation. Design Review Committee: The project was reviewed by the Design Review Committee (Macias, Wimberly, and Van der Zwaag) on December 6, 2016. The Committee recommended approval of the project as submitted (Exhibit G). H,I-2 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2016-00522 AND DRC2016-00524 - PHELAN DEVELOPMENT January 25, 2017 Page 3 C. Tree Removal Permit DRC2016-00524: The Arborist Report (Mike Parker, July 17, 2016) evaluated a total of 22 trees on the project site whose location conflicts with project improvements; 20 of these trees meet the Development Code criteria for height and trunk dimension to be considered heritage trees. The Development Code defines heritage trees as "all eucalyptus windrows, any tree in excess of thirty feet (30') in height and having a single trunk with a diameter of twenty inches (20") or more or a multi -trunk having a diameter of thirty inches (30") or more." The Arborist Report evaluated the location,and condition of all trees on -site including: 7 California Fan Palm (Washingtonia filifera), 6 Canary Island Date Palm (Phoenix canariensus), 2 Aleppo Pines (Pinus halepenus), 2 Lemon Scented Gum Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus citriodora), 2 California Pepper (Schinus molle),1 Elderberry (Sambucus), 1 Silk Oak (Grevillea robusta), and 1 Olive (Olea). Of these identified trees, 1 California Pepper does not meet the size criteria to be considered a heritage tree and the 1 Silk Oak is dead. All of the trees are in average to below average condition and their location conflicts with proposed improvements. The Landscape Plan demonstrates that the 22 trees removed as part of this project will be replaced with a variety of 36-inch box, 24-inch box, and 15-gallon size trees. Based on Development Code standards for tree plantings a total of 82 trees are required for the project, and the Landscape Plan (Exhibit F) proposes planting trees throughout the project site to address this requirement. D. Environmental Assessment: The project qualifies under the Class 32 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15332 (In -Fill Development Project) because the project involves the construction of development within city limits on no more than 5 acres substantially surrounded by urban uses. Additionally, approval of the project would not result in any significant effect relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality. Staff reviewed an Air Quality (including greenhouse gasses) report and traffic memorandum, and these studies concluded that there would not be any significant effect on the environment. Lastly, the site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services and the project is consistent with the applicable General Plan designation and all applicable General Plan polices as well as the applicable zoning designation and regulations. Therefore, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 15332 (In -Fill Development Projects), and the City's local CEQA Guidelines., staff determined the project to be a Class 32 exemption and characterized the project to be an in -fill development. This item was advertised as a public hearing in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were mailed to all property owners within a 660-foot plus radius of the project site.

A. Recitals 1. The applicant, Phelan Development, filed an application for the approval of Tree Removal Permit No. DRC2016-00524, as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the subject Tree Removal Permit request is referred to as "the application." 2. On the 25th day of January, 2017, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a noticed public hearing on the application and concluded said hearing on that date. 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 meeting on January 25, 2017, including written and oral staff reports, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application applies to approximately 4.78 acres of land, basically a rectangular configuration, located at the northeast corner of Sixth Street and Hermosa Avenue and is currently designated General Industrial; and b. The project site is approximately 338 feet from east to west and 616 feet'from north to south and is currently vacant; and C. The property to the north is a large warehouse distribution building of about 400,000 square feet, the property to the west is an office complex consisting of four buildings of 20,000 square feet each, and the property to the south and east, respectively, are a large warehouse distribution building of about 400,000 square feet and an officelwarehouse complex consisting of six buildings of various sizes; and d. The related Design Review DRC2016-00522 is a request to develop a 102,530 square foot industrial building at the northwest corner of Sixth Street and Hermosa Avenue; and H,I-28 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-02 TREE REMOVAL PERMIT DRC2016-00524 — PHELAN DEVELOOPMENT January 25, 2017 Page 2 e. The trees are not designated as historically significant; and f. The trees are not noted in any Specific Plan/Community Plan or condition of approval; and g. The Arborist Report (Mike Parker, July 17, 2016) evaluated a total of 22 trees on the project site whose location conflicts with project improvements; 20 of these trees meet the Development Codes criteria for height and trunk dimension to be considered heritage trees. All of the 22 trees on -site are in average to below average condition, one is dead, and the location of all trees conflict with proposed improvements. The Landscape Plan demonstrates that the 22 trees removed as part of this project will be replaced with a variety of 36-inch box, 24-inch box, and 15-gallon size trees. Based on Development Code standards for tree plantings a total of 82 trees are required for the project, and the Landscape Plan proposes planting trees throughout the project site to address this requirement; and h. It is necessary to remove the trees in order to construct improvements which allow economic enjoyment of the property; and . i. There are a variety of existing healthy trees in the neighborhood; the removal does not affect the established character of the area and the property values; and j. It is not necessary to remove the trees to construct required improvements within the public street right-of-way or within a flood control or utility right-of-way; and k. The trees cannot be preserved by pruning and proper maintenance or relocation rather than removal; and The trees do not constitute a significant natural resource of the City. 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above- referenced meeting and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2 above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows: a. The proposed Tree Removal Permit is consistent with the objectives of the General Plan. The related industrial development (Design Review DRC2016-00522) is consistent with the General Plan General Industrial land use designation. The removal of the subject trees is necessary to develop the related 102,530 square foot industrial development; and b. The proposed Tree Removal Permit is in accord with the objectives of the Development Code and the purposes of the district in which the site is located, which permits the removal of heritage trees when associated with development of a project site. In this case removal of the trees is necessary to construct a related 102,530 square foot industrial development. Additionally, the Arborist Report submitted for the related project (Mike Parker, July 17, 2016) determined that the on -site trees are in poor condition due to their condition, health, and conflict with proposed improvements; and C. The proposed Tree Removal Permit is in compliance with each of the applicable provisions of the Development Code including replacement of the removed trees with trees of a species and quantity commensurate with the aesthetic value of the trees to be removed. In this H,I-29 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-02 TREE REMOVAL PERMIT DRC2016-00524 — PHELAN DEVELOOPMENT January 25, 2017 Page 3 case, a minimum of 82 trees will be planted as part of the related development, 60 more trees than those removed; and d. The proposed Tree Removal Permit, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity as the 22 on -site trees will be replaced with 82 new trees throughout the project site. 4. The Planning Department staff has determined that the project is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines. The project qualifies under the Class 32 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15332 (In -Fill Development Project) because the project involves the construction of development within city limits on no more than five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses. 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. 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. Planning Department 1) Approval of this Tree Removal Permit application is subject to Planning Commission approval of Design Review DRC2016-00522. 2) All applicable Conditions of Approval as contained in Resolution No. 17-01 approving DRC2016-00522, shall apply. 3) Approval is granted for the removal of all 22 trees on -site. The 22 trees removed as part of this project will be replaced with a variety of 36-inch box, 24-inch box, and 15-gallon size trees. Based on Development Code standards for tree plantings a total of 82 trees are required for the project, and replacement trees shall be planted throughout the project site. The replacement tree plantings shall be indicated on the Landscape Plan submitted for plan check. 4) This permit shall be valid for a period of 90 days, unless an extension is requested in writing prior to the expiration date. Where this permit is associated with development, the 90 days shall start from the date of issuance of a grading permit. 6. The Secretary to this Commission shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution. APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 25TH DAY OF JANUARY 2017.
