A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA,APPROVING VARIANCE DRC2017-
00215 - A REQUEST TO INCREASE THE MAXIMUM PERMITTED WALL
HEIGHT TO OVER 8 FEET FOR SOUND ATTENUATION PURPOSES
RELATED TO THE SITE PLAN AND ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW OF A 214-
UNIT, MULTI-FAMILY DEVELOPMENT ON 12.1 ACRES OF LAND WITHIN
THE MEDIUM HIGH (MH) DISTRICT(14-24 DWELLING UNITS PER ACRE)
OF THE TERRA VISTA COMMUNITY PLAN, LOCATED AT THE
SOUTHWEST CORNER OF CHURCH STREET AND TERRA VISTA
PARKWAY;AND MAKING FINDINGS IN SUPPORT THEREOF—APN: 1089-
031-36.
A. Recitals.
1. LVD Terra Vista, LLC filed an application for the approval of Variance DRC2017-00215, as
described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the subject Variance request is
referred to as "the application."
2. On the 10th day of May 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 public hearing on May 10, 2017, including written and oral staff reports,together with
public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. The application applies to a property located at the southwest corner of Church Street
and Terra Vista Parkway in the Medium High (MH) District of the Terra Vista Community Plan; and
b. There is existing attached and detached residential development to the north within
the Medium (M) District;to the south is commercial development within the Neighborhood Commercial
(NC) District;to the east is an office development within the Office Park(OPK) District; and to the west,
across Haven Avenue, is vacant land within the Mixed Use (MU) District that is approved for a senior
care facility and an existing commercial/office development within the General Commercial (GC)
District.A flood control facility(Deer Creek Channel) runs along the northwest corner of the project site;
and
c. The subject wall height Variance(DRC2017-00215)is related to the development of a
214-unit, multiple-family for sale housing project (DRC2016-00713) on 21.1 acres of land; and

d. The project includes up to 8.5 foot high property line wall along Haven Avenue and a
portion of the south property line for noise attenuation purposes. The proposed sound wall was
recommended by the Noise Assessment submitted for the project (Landrum and Brown, Inc.,
March 31, 2017). The applicant has submitted a Variance for the additional wall height (DRC2017-
00215).
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 strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would
result in a difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship inconsistent with the objectives of this Code.The
increased wall height is necessary due to the project site being adjacent to a major thoroughfare,which
greatly increase vehicle noise levels on the project site. Without the additional wall height, the project
site would not be able to comply with the City's outdoor noise standards.
b. There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the
property involved or to the intended use of the property that do not apply generally to other properties in
the same zone. The project site is adjacent to a major thoroughfare with increased vehicle noise levels.
The majority of residential development in the City is not exposed to vehicle noise levels in excess of
City standards.
c. The strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would
deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the same zone.Without
an increase in the permitted wall heights,the proposed development would be required to increase the
building setbacks from the adjacent roadways, reducing the developable portion of the project site.
d. The granting of the Variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent
with the limitations on other properties classified in the same zone. It is common practice to grant a
Variance for increased property line wall height for sound attenuation purposes where the project site is
adjacent to a major thoroughfare.
e. The granting of the Variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or
welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. The increased wall heights
will not negatively impact the surrounding property owners as the walls will either face a public roadway
or a commercial development owned by the same developer. The walls facing the public view will have
a decorative finish.
4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the proposed Mitigated Negative
Declaration,together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the
application, the Planning Commission finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project will
have a significant effect upon the environment and recommends that the City Council adopt a Mitigated
Negative Declaration based upon the findings as follows:
a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's local
CEQA Guidelines, the City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of the
project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, City staff determined that, with the
imposition of mitigation measures,there would be no substantial evidence that the project would have a
significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated Negative Declaration
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-39
VARIANCE DRC2017-00215
LVD TERRA VISTA, LLC
May 10, 2017
Page 3
was prepared. Thereafter,the City staff provided public notice of the public comment period and of the
intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration.
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 recommends that the City
Council adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration.
c. The Planning Commission has also reviewed and considered the Mitigation Monitoring
Program for the project that has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of Public Resources
Code Section 21081.6 and finds that such Program is designed to ensure compliance with the
mitigation measures during project implementation. The Planning Commission therefore recommends
that the City Council adopt the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project.
d. The custodian of records for the Initial Study, Mitigated Negative Declaration and all
other materials which constitute the record of proceedings upon which the Planning Commission's
recommendation 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.

11. 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,

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.
12. 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.

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 500 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.

35. 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 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.
36. 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 time on 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.
