RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING VARIANCE
DRC2018-00964 - A REQUEST TO REDUCE THE SETBACK BETWEEN
NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL FOR A SINGLE -
STORY, 9,695 SQUARE FOOT INDOOR SWIM SCHOOL WITHIN THE
NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL (NC) DISTRICT, TERRA VISTA
COMMUNITY PLAN LOCATED AT 7827 HAVEN AVENUE; AND MAKING
FINDINGS IN SUPPORT THEREOF—APN: 1077-423-04.
A. Recitals.
1. RLH Architects, on behalf of Premier Swim Academy filed an application for the approval
of Variance DRC2018-00964 as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this
Resolution, the subject Variance request is referred to as "the application."
2. On January 23, 2019, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga
conducted a duly noticed public hearing on the application and concluded said hearing on that date.
All legal prerequisites prior to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.
A. 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 23, 2019, including written and oral staff reports,
together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. The application applies to the property located at 7827 Haven Avenue and is
comprised of one (1) parcel with an area of 1.62 acres and is currently partially developed as part of
an existing shopping center. The site is bound to the north by multi -family residential development,
which is currently under construction. To the south and east respectively is a gas station, and a
building part of a shopping center. To the west (across Haven Avenue) is an existing shopping
center: and
b. The property to the north is zoned Medium High (MH) Residential, while the property
to the east is zoned Neighborhood Commercial (NC). The property to the south is zoned Office Park
(OPK). The property to the west (across Haven Avenue) is zoned General Commercial (GC). The
properties to the east, north, and south are within the Terra Vista Community Plan; and
C. The site has a General Plan land use designation of Neighborhood Commercial;
and
d. The subject setback Variance (DRC2018-00964) is related to construction a single -
story, 9,695 square foot indoor swim school (DRC2018-00257); and

e. The building is proposed to be set back 22 feet and 8 inches from the north property
line, which encroaches in the required 30 -foot residential buffering requirement between the
Neighborhood Commercial (NC) District, Terra Vista Community Plan and the Medium High (MH)
Residential District, Terra Vista Community Plan. The applicant has submitted a Variance for the
reduced setback (DRC2018-00964).
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 project site is a vacant pad within an existing shopping center. The project site is a vacant pad
within an existing shopping center. As such, most of the on-site improvements such as parking and
landscaping have already been constructed, therefore physically limiting where a structure could be
located. The project site is also bound by easements and a bio swale, which further limits any
remaining buildable areas otherwise available for construction or future expansion; and
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 was re -zoned from Office Park (OP), Terra Vista
Community Plan (TVCP) to Neighborhood Commercial (NC), NCP at the same time the abutting
property to the north was re -zoned from Office Park (OP), TVCP to Medium High (MH) Residential,
TVCP on September 4, 2008. This resulted in the project site being the only site within the
Neighborhood Commercial (NC) District, TVCP that directly abuts a residentially -zoned property.
Additionally, there is a building within the same shopping center that already encroaches into the
required residential buffering requirement. This existing building is set back 20 feet from the property
line, which is less than the 22 feet and 8 inches requested by the indoor swim school. Furthermore,
most on-site improvements such as parking and landscaping has already been constructed as a
result of the site being part of an existing shopping center. These constraints limit where a structure
could be built. These limitations do not generally apply to the surrounding lots within the same zone;
and
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. The
applicant has expressed the desire to expand the facility in the future. An expansion along the south
side of the building is the most reasonable way to alter the floor plan of the building to accommodate
expanded operations, as any future addition will be able to utilize the bathrooms and changing rooms
built with the original building. Without the reduction in the residential buffering setback, the property
would be unable to utilize an otherwise buildable space for a future expansion due to several physical
constraints. This deprives the applicant of a future use on their property, which is otherwise enjoyed
by the owners of other properties in the same zone Additionally, granting a reduced setback along
the north of the proposed building will allow adequate space for public art to be installed along the
south of the proposed structure, enhancing any public art's visibility from Haven Avenue; and
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. Granting a reduced
residential buffer setback to the subject property will not constitute a grant of special privilege as
there are special circumstances which apply to the lot that do not apply to other lots of the same
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 19-06

zone in the surrounding area. The project site is the only vacant pad within the Neighborhood
Commercial (NC) District, TVCP that directly abutting a residentially -zoned property. Additionally,
most on-site improvements such as parking and landscaping has already been constructed as part
of a previous development, limiting where a structure could be built. Additionally, there are existing
structures within the same zone which have less of a set back from •residential areas than what is
being requested,as part of this Variance; and
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 purpose of the 30 -
foot residential buffer setback is to avoid any adverse impacts relating to noise, odor and/or glare for
any residents abutting a commercial use. The residential buildings north of the project site are set
back 15 feet from the side property line, which exceeds the required 10 -foot setback per Table V-3
of the TVCP. These residential buildings are built in a way that all building penetrations such as
windows and doors are not oriented toward the subject property. The project site also contains a 22 -
foot wide landscape buffer along the north property line, which exceeds the required 10 -foot wide
landscape buffer for residential areas per Figure IV -16 of the TVCP. Trees planted within this buffer
are spaced approximately 20 feet on center, which exceeds the required tree planting distance of 30
feet on center per Section 17.56.060(K) of the Development Code, This landscape area will provide
good screening between the abutting residential and commercial properties. Additionally, the
possibility of any impacts relating to noise, odor, or glare is further reduced, as the swim school will
operate fully within an enclosed building. The orientation and large setback of the residential
buildings to the north, combined with the existing landscape buffer, as well as the nature of the
proposed swim school ensures that any potential impacts of the project to the abutting residential
property is minimal; and
4. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's local CEQA
Guidelines, the Planning Commission finds that the project qualifies as •a Class 32 exemption under
State CEQA Guidelines Section 15332 - In -Fill Development Projects. The proposed development
occurs within City limits on a project site of no more than five acres and, surrounded by a parking lot
and improvements from an existing shopping center. Approval of the project would not result in any
significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality. The Planning Commission
finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the
environment.
5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in Paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above,
this Commission hereby approves the Variance application subject to each and every condition set
forth in the Conditions of Approval, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
6. The Secretary to this Commission shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.

28. NONRESIDENTIAL MANDATORY MEASURES — CALIFORNIA GREEN BUILDING STANDARDS
CODE — Prior to the issuance of any building permit the applicant shall comply with Section 5.106.1
(Storm water pollution prevention) of the current adopted California Green Building Standards Code:
Newly construction projects and additions which disturb less than one acre of land shall prevent the
pollution of stormwater runoff from the construction activities through one or more of the following
measures:
5.106.1.1 Local Ordinance — Comply with a lawfully enacted stormwater management and/or
erosion control ordinance.
5.106.1.2 Best Management Practices (BMP) — Prevent the loss of soil through wind or water
erosion by implementing an effective combination of erosion and sediment control and good
housekeeping BMP.
1. Soil loss BMP that should be considered for implementation as appropriate for each project
include, but are not limited to, the following:
a. Scheduling construction activity.
b. Preservation of natural features, vegetation and soil.
c. Drainage swales or lined ditches to control stormwater flow.
d. Mulching or hydroseeding to stabilize disturbed soils.
e. Erosion control to protect slopes.
f. Protection of storm drain inlets (gravel bags or catch basin inserts).
g. Perimeter sediment control (perimeter silt fence, fiber rolls).
h. Sediment trap or sediment basin to retain sediment on site.
i. Stabilized construction exits.
J. Wind erosion control.
k. Other soil loss BMP acceptable to the enforcing agency.
2. Good housekeeping BMP to manage construction equipment, materials and wastes that should
be considered for implementation as appropriate for each project Include, but are not limited to, the
following:
a. Material handling and waste management,
b. Building materials stockpile management.
c. Management of washout areas (concrete, paints, stucco, etc.).
d. Control of vehicle/equipment fueling to contractors staging area.
e, Vehicle and equipment cleaning performed off site.
f. Spill prevention and control.
g. Other housekeeping BMP acceptable to the enforcing agency (City of Rancho Cucamonga).
29. DESIGN ISSUE: This project does not meet the requirements for a grading permit, nor a non-priority
water quality management plan. The small scale site plan shown on the set of plans prepared by
does NOT meet the drainage requirements around the structure of the current
adopted Californla Residential Code. The City of Rancho Cucamonga recommends that during the
preparation of the drawings for the building permit, the applicant retain the services of a professional
civil engineer to design proper drainage meeting the current adopted California Bullding and
Residential Code requirements.

30. DESIGN ISSUE: the preliminary water quality management plan Site and Drainage Plan is showing
cubic feet of required Design Capture Volume (DVC) of storm water to be treated. A
preliminary review of the capacity of the proposed storm water structural treatment device (BMP)
appears to be less than DVC. The Final Project -Specific Water Quality Management Plan shall
meet the requirements of the San Bernardino County Technical Guidance Document for Water
Quality Management Plans of the current adopted Municipal Separate Storm Sewers Systems
(MS4) Permit for the treatment of storm water.
31. GRD.0017
Prior to issuance of a grading permit the precise grading and drainage plan shall follow the format
provided in the City of Rancho Cucamonga handout "Information for Grading Plans and Permit".
32. GRD.091
Prior to approval of the final project -specific water quality management plan the applicant shall have
a soils engineer prepare a project -specific infiltration study for the project for the purposes of storm
water quality treatment. The infiltration study and recommendations shall follow the guidelines in the
current adopted "San Bernardino County Technical Guidance Document for Water Quality
Management Plans". Note: As this project has been previously graded and the site soils have been
compacted for building pads and parking lot purposes, the use of the Custom Soil Resource Report
for San Bernardino County Southwestern Part by the United States Department of Agriculture,
Natural Resource Conservation Service for natural soils is not acceptable for soil groundwater
infiltration rates.
