to the neighborhood area from the rural conservation area. Property owners within the rural
conservation area will ultimately have the choice to sell their development rights or develop
privately on their own.
Commissioner Dopp asked for clarification on the flooding issues in Deer Creek and Day
Creek.
Tony Locacciato, Meridian Consulting, stated that the CEQA analysis evaluated the flood,
performance and maintenance data of those basins provided by the County and determined
that they are quite adequate to handle flood debris.
Chairman Guglielmo asked about the expansion of the retail uses in the commercial area,
specifically medical uses in the upstairs units only.
Mr. Burris explained that to maintain fiscal neutrality, it was important to permit retail uses
which provide sales tax support while allowing other service-based uses without
compromising the ability to maintain and support retail uses. Mr. Burris further explained that
second story uses could be elevator served.
Nick Ghirelli stated that all projects would be required to meet ADA accessibility standards.
Chairman Guglielmo stated that he would prefer not to see vacant space.
Chairman Guglielmo asked if these uses could be permitted on the ground floor with a CUP.
Commissioner Dopp asked about the types of retail uses in the plan.
Mr. Burris explained the types of retail and service uses within the City.
Commissioner Dopp asked about the translocation of plants.
Mr. Locacciato explained how plant species can be relocated.
Tony Maricic stated he owns property up in the conservation area. Expressed concern that
the City has not engaged the owners of the properties within the conservation area, the lack
of a circulation plan for the conservation area, and the 200 acre kangaroo rat habitat. Stated

that the City and County have prevented property owners from getting to their property for
maintenance.
Judy Brennan stated opposition to the project. Risking loss of trust in the City. Any home
north of Banyan was supposed to be half acre. Does not believe the plan will be followed.
Concerned that trails will not be constructed and does not have accurate trail connections from
east to west. Trails are needed for equestrian uses as well as evacuation.
Don Horvatich expressed his concern that the community plan doesn’t match the surrounding
area, and the desire for no retail in the area.
Sami Muller asked how strongly is the conservation area designated and for how long? Is the
housing proposed going to look like what is in the plan?
William Gibson is concerned about the number of cars and the traffic impacts between Day
Creek and Milliken. Asked about the impacts to schools.
Mark Gibboney is opposed to the plan because the idea of open space was not evaluated.
The community was not part of the 2017 plan. Stated Federal agencies recommend
conservation of the land. Does not like the small lot development. Community asked for large
lots only. The plan is a done deal – public wasn’t asked.
Alexander Cunningham expressed he represents the area east of preserve to Fontana City
limits – 400 acres. Planning Department met with us to address compatibility. Confused with
the transfer of development rights. Likes rural life and don’t understand why they need to be
brought into the City. They don’t fit.
Mary Linden Keith mentioned she is opposed to the plan because this is the Deer Creek Wash.

Outreach – One of the most extensive the City has every embarked upon. Multiple workshops
in multiple parts of the city, social media, electronic and in person. The City tried to bring a
broad and wide balanced perspective to the Commission for consideration. The City reached
out to land owners in the rural area, as well.
Fiscal responsibility – Focus is on the financial burden on the City. For example; fire, police
and public services. Low property tax city, retail needed to supplement funds needed to
support civic services.
Conservation land – How long? Designed to be set up forever, provides for an endowment
for lands to be managed in perpetuity.
Architectural styles - Craftsman, Spanish, Mid Century and Ranch, similar to surrounding
areas.
Traffic - Thoroughly detailed in the EIR, found that adding another east-west road north of the
210 will help alleviate pressure on Banyan.
Plan anticipates another new K-8 school on Wilson to divert traffic from Banyan.
Plan should have been open space. Considered this in great detail. Cost was estimated at
over $100 million. There is no revenue stream available to fund.
Balance community vision, property rights and fiscal responsibility.
Water supply assessment was provided by CVWD and found adequate water supplies,
conservation is mandated by the State.
Commissioner Oaxaca commented on Flood Control and is hoping to see in the documents
in response to comments. Reference to documents from various regulatory agencies related
to flood control – gap for him – unable to square historical documents with justifications in the
final EIR. What is the relevance of the historical documents? Are they wrong? Out of date?
Improvements made over the year changed factors? Would have liked a side-by-side
comparison of historical documents and FEIR conclusions. Similar concerns with fire danger.
If historical documents are relevant, how are they being addressed?

Mr. Burris responded to help in navigating documents – 2003 Grand Prix Fire – able to take
bad fire and water storm and test the flood control facilities. Basins are not dams, not intended
to hold water. Intended to contain debris and to keep it out of channels. Help to understand
that the levy has been certified by FEMA. Is a diversion mechanism to help direct flows into
the channel. Systems has been tested many times over. Staff visited the site many times
during and after significant rain storm to understand how the infrastructure worked during and
after a rain storm. Water virtually not on the site because everything is working as it should.
Flood District did an amazing job and spent millions of dollars to protect our downstream
neighborhoods.
Mr. Locacciato explained some of the changes made to the areas by the Army Corps of
Engineers and Flood Control Channel.
Commissioner Oaxaca asked about the role of the property owners in the LAFCO decision
making process.
Mr. Ghirelli and Mr. Burris provided a brief explanation of the LAFCO process and after LAFCO
approved an annexation, with an ability for protest vote.
Commissioner Wimberly asked about outreach with property owners within the conservation
area and if enough outreach has been done.
Mr. Burris explained that we have reached out to many property owners and residents, with
some response. We continue to initiate conversations throughout the process.
Commissioner Dopp asked if outreach is still available to interested parties and could changes
be made necessary before City Council.
Mr. Burris said yes, conversations can and will be ongoing throughout the process.
Chairman Guglielmo offered each commissioner time to comment.
Commissioner Dopp stated that the City has done a lot of outreach and provided data to
support it. Feels that annexation allows for local control that was supported by outreach data.
While some may not agree with all parts of the project, it is important that people feel heard.
Preserving as much of the conservation area as important for the long term. Properties

change and development desires change over time. This plan is the best opportunity to allow
for some development and preserve out open space.
Commissioner Dopp further stated he understands the concern about traffic. Agrees that
adding another east-west access may help alleviate traffic along Banyan and Vintage. Is
happy to see buffers with the adjacent residential community. Wonders if the TDR option will
work. Understands the need for commercial uses. Recognizes that while half acre homes are
nice, we must think of the long term and the cost and availability of housing for the next
generations. The City has done their best to make a plan that is the most palatable to most
residents.
Commissioner Oaxaca thanked staff and the team for the efforts to date to develop the plan
and reach out to the community and listen to that input. Notes two points from public: 1. Apply
local control; 2. Maximize the area that can be conserved. Conservation takes resources to
prevent the area from deteriorating. This plan allows us to create the resources to make the
conservation happen.
Commissioner Oaxaca recognized the traffic concerns brought up by the public. Feels that
the completion of Wilson Avenue will help. The goal is to bring the best possible plan to meet
the most needs of those who have a current and future stake in Rancho Cucamonga.
Commissioner Wimberly thanked staff for their work and believes that this is the best plan for
the future of the City. Concurs with Commissioners Dopp and Oaxaca. Wants to make sure
that the TDR ratios support conservation.
Commissioner Munoz thanked public for coming out to participate in the process.
Understands that not all may agree with the plan, but it is the Commissions job to look at the
long term. Plan is comprehensive, thorough and allows for local control, addresses
conservation of the open space and connected the plan to the General Plan while maintaining
fiscal responsibility. Glad to see the addition of roadway segments that will alleviate stress
during school pick up and drop off times. Pleased with the expansion of the trails network,
architectural styles and development standards. Supports the plan.
Chairman Guglielmo thanked the public for their participation. Goal is to look at the overall
view of the City and decide what is best for the City as a whole. Believes in private property
rights and empathetic to those that may not agree. We have an unbelievable city and we have
an opportunity to make it even better. The plan creates additional trails and parks which we

STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT: TIME EXTENSION DRC2019-00564– RICHLAND COMMUNITIES – A request
for a one (1) year time extension for a previously approved Tentative Tract Map
SUBTT18908—The subdivision of approximately 10.6 acres into 30 single-
family detached lots within the Low (L) Residential District, Etiwanda North
Specific Plan located at the northwest corner of East Avenue and Wilson

BACKGROUND:
The subdivision will have two points of access, one along the future extension of Wilson Avenue
and one along the future extension of East Avenue. The design of the proposed subdivision is
consistent with the surrounding residential subdivisions within the area. The proposed 30 lots will
be developed in accordance with the Low Residential District, Etiwanda North Specific Plan
standards.
The Application is a request to extend the approval period of Tentative Tract Map SUBTTM18908
by one additional year. Upon the initial approval of SUBTTM18908 on September 28, 2016, the
approval period was for a duration of 3 years and was set to expire on September 28, 2019. A
breakdown of the approval history of the subject tentative tract map is as follows:

ANALYSIS:
Subdivision Map: Municipal Code Section 16.20.100 (Extensions) states that tentative parcel
maps may be extended for a time period not exceeding 2 years. The municipal code requires that
a request for a time extension be submitted not less than 60 days prior to the expiration date. The
applicant submitted a letter (Exhibit B) on July 29, 2019, stating a one (1) year extension is
necessary to allow time for the completion of environmental permits with the US Army Corps of
Engineers and the US Fish and Wildlife Service. Flexibility with the 60-day submittal period has
been afforded to applicants in the past who were unaware of the submittal time limit. This
application involves a 1-year time extension request, which would set the expiration date to
September 25, 2020. If approved, the applicant will have the opportunity to apply for one additional
time extension request.
Public Art: This subject Tentative Tract Map Time Extension is exempt from providing public art
as outlined in Chapter 17.124 of the Development Code as the project is not tied to any
developments. However, public art will be required once the architectural drawings have been
submitted to the Planning Department.
Environmental Assessment: Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the
City’s local CEQA Guidelines, the City adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration on September
28, 2016 in connection with the City’s approval of Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18908. 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 indicate 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.
The applicant submitted a Biological Resource Memorandum (ESA Consulting; April 29, 2019)
which reviewed whether changes have occurred on the project site that would necessitate new
or different mitigation measures. The report concluded that no substantial changes have occurred
on the project site that would necessitate new or modified mitigation measures. The report also
concluded that the recommended mitigation measures that were detailed in the 2002 Biological
Resource Assessment is consistent with the site conditions that were observed in early 2019.
Staff has evaluated Time Extension DRC2019-00564 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 previous Mitigated Negative Declaration.
The application is for a one (1) year time extension of a previously approved Tentative Tract Map
with no proposed changes to the scope of the original approval. Staff further finds that the project
will not have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous Mitigated Negative
Declaration, nor 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 applicant has not proposed any changes to the originally approved entitlements. 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 Time Extension DRC2019-00564.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The project site currently is assessed an annual property tax. A percentage of this annual tax is
shared with the City. The proposed development will increase the value of the project site and the
City’s annual share of the property tax will increase accordingly. The project proponent will also
be responsible for paying one-time impact fees. These fees are intended to address the increased
demand for City services due to the proposed project. The following types of services that these
impact fees would support include the following: library services, transportation infrastructure,
drainage infrastructure, animal services, police, parks, and community and recreation services.
COUNCIL GOAL(S) ADDRESSED:
Although a specific current City Council goal does not apply to the application, the proposed map
extension for 30 single-family detached homes will enhance the premier community status by
adding additional housing which will increase the City’s housing supply. This project is also
consistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan and the objectives of the Development
Code as the General Plan land use and zoning designations of the project site are Low Residential
and the subdivision is for residential purposes.

Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were mailed to all property
owners within a 660-foot radius of the project site. To date, no comments have been received

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 adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration on September 28,
2016, in connection with the City’s approval of Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18908. Pursuant to
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 19-57
TIME EXTENSION DRC2019-00564 – RICHLAND COMMUNITIES, INC.
September 25, 2019
Page 3
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 indicate 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 Tentative Tract Map
SUBTT18908, 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 previous Mitigated Negative Declaration. In April of 2019, a biological resource update letter
was submitted as part of the request for the previous one (1) year time extension request. The
April 2019 letter states that no substantial changes have occurred on the project site that would
necessitate new or modified mitigation measures. The report also concluded that the
recommended mitigation measures that were detailed in the 2002 Biological Resource
Assessment is consistent with the site conditions that were observed in early 2019. The
application is for a one (1) year time extension of a previously approved Tentative Tract Map with
no proposed changes to the scope of the original approval. Staff further finds that the project will
not have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous Mitigated Negative
Declaration, 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.
c. Based on these findings and all evidence in the record, the Planning Commission
concurs with the staff determination that no additional environmental review is required pursuant
to CEQA in connection with the City’s consideration of Tentative Tract Map SUBTT18908.
5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in Paragraphs 1, 2, 3 and 4 above,
this Commission hereby grants a time extension. The new expiration date for Tentative Tract Map
SUBTT18908 is September 25, 2020.
6. All applicable Conditions of Approval in Resolution No. 07-59 for SUBTT18908 shall
apply to Time Extension DRC2019-00564.
The Secretary to this Commission shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.
APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 25TH DAY OF SEPTEMBER 2019.

RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Planning Commission take the following action:
• Approve Hillside Design Review DRC2018-01013 through adoption of the attached
Resolution of Approval with Conditions.
PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION:
The project site is a 20,000 square foot vacant parcel located on the west side of Via Verde Street
and north of Almond Street, within the Very Low (VL) Residential District, Hillside Overlay, and
the Equestrian Overlay. The property dimensions are approximately 200 feet along the north
property line, 100 feet along the east property line, 100 feet along the west property line, and 200
feet along the south property line. The lot slopes downwards from the street and with an elevation
of approximately 2,185 feet as measured at the curb face along the east property line and an
elevation of approximately 2,158 feet as measured along the west property line. This creates an
elevation change of approximately 27 feet from the east to the west property+ lines. Street
improvements such as a sidewalk, curb, and gutter exist along Via Verde Street, but street trees
and parkway landscaping need to be installed. The existing Land Use, General Plan and Zoning

ANALYSIS:
A. Project Overview: The Applicant, on behalf of his client, proposes to construct a 3,030
square foot, two-story, single-family residence on the project site. The project complies with
all the requirements of the Very Low (VL) Residential District, Hillside Overlay, and
Equestrian Overlay. The maximum lot coverage is 25%. The proposed lot coverage is
approximately 14.5%. The proposed grading includes up to 6’-11” of fill and 5’-3” of cut,
which necessitates approval by the Planning Commission (5 foot max cut or fill for Planning
Director approval).
Architecture: The proposed residence has a contemporary ranch style design theme, that
includes a standing seam metal roof, smooth stucco finish, cluttered stone siding, titanium
vinyl siding, and balcony glass railings. The architectural design of the residence
incorporates variations in the roof height to interrupt the wall plane at the rear and the front
elevations. The three-car garage is located underneath the southern portion of the first story
of the residence, with the garage door facing east and accessible by a driveway with a 10%
grade. The building mass is visually reduced through multiple wall plane changes and the
incorporation of exterior decks along the west elevation. The residence will be painted earth
tone colors in compliance with Section 17.122.020.D.2.
The proposed residence consists of two levels. The first level is approximately 2,886 square
feet and consists of the main living area, 3-car garage, dining area, and a covered porch at
the entrance of the residence. The second level is approximately 1,080 square feet and
consists of the remaining living area with decks around the rear portion of the residence.
The size of the 3,030 square foot residence is in keeping with homes constructed along
Via Verde Street, which range in size from 1,951 square feet to 5,317 square feet.
B. Very Low Residential District Code Compliance: The project complies with the requirements
of the Very Low (VL) District. The required development standards are as follows:
Setbacks Development Requirements Proposed
Front Yard 42’ 42’
Interior Side Yards 10’ / 15’ 10’ / 18’
Rear Yard 60’ 96’
Lot Coverage 25% Max 14.5%
Building Height 30’ limit within the Hillside Overlay 26’-1”

C. Design Committee Review: The project was presented to the Design Review Committee
(Wimberly and Munoz) on August 6, 2019. The Design Review Committee accepted the
design of the project as proposed without revisions and recommended that the project be
moved forward to the Planning Commission for review (Exhibit D).
D. Hillside Design Requirements and Code Compliance: The project complies with the intent
of the Hillside Overlay District, which seeks to facilitate appropriate development of hillside
areas. The project site is a downslope lot with an elevation change of approximately 13 feet
from the north to the south property lines and 27 feet from east and west property lines. The
maximum height of the house is 26 feet overall as measured from finished grade. Hillside
Design Section 17.122.020.D.1.C requires that houses in the Hillside Overlay District be
designed to fit within a 30 foot high building envelope.
E. Grading: The proposed grading plan indicates there will be 179 cubic yards of cut and 213
cubic yards of fill from the project site. The design limits earthwork to 34 cubic yards of
import, which most of the import is necessary to allow the construction of the driveway and
foundation of the residence. The foundation of the residence is stepped with the existing
grade, with the upper pad at an elevation of 2,188 feet and the lower grade pad at an
elevation of 2,175 feet. This is in conformance with the Hillside Overlay Design Section
17.122.020.D.1.a., which requires the building to follow the slope.
F. View Analysis: The Development Code does not include a requirement to preserve views,
however, the applicant has increased the side yard setbacks to avoid the appearance of
overbuilding or crowding the lot and to minimize view obstructions.
G. Building Envelope Analysis: Hillside Design Section 17.122.020.D.1.e requires that
residences in the Hillside Overlay District be designed to fit within a 30 foot high building
envelope. The applicant has provided two north-south and two east-west cross-sections
with building envelopes demonstrating compliance with the 30 foot height requirement.
H. Retaining Walls: The maximum permitted retaining wall height is 4 feet within the Hillside
Overlay per Section 17.12.020, with stepped retaining walls permitted to have a maximum
height of 3 feet with a minimum 3 foot separation between the stepped walls. No retaining
walls are proposed in excess of 4 feet. The proposed walls are in keeping with the Hillside
Design Guideline Section 17.122.020.E., having walls that integrate the materials and colors
used on the residence.
I. Landscape: The proposed front yard landscaping is designed to comply with Hillside
Development Section 17.122.020.F., which requires new development to include the use of
drought-tolerant landscaping to protect slopes from erosion and planting shrubs to soften
the views of the downslope elevations. The proposed front landscaping complies with the
front yard landscape requirements, by minimizing hardscape to less than 50 percent of the
front yard area. The proposed front yard landscaping also meets the criteria of the State
Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO) and does not exceed the maximum
applied water allowance (MAWA) as required by Section 17.82.020. All vegetation will be
designed and installed in accordance to the guidelines from the Rancho Cucamonga Fire
Protection District (RCFPD) for sites located in the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone
(VHFHSZ) and in the designated Wildland-Urban Interface Fire Area.

J. 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. The project qualifies as a Class 3 exemption under State CEQA
Guidelines Section 15303 –– New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures. Section
15303 allows for the construction of a single-family residence in a residential zone. The
proposed project is a single-family residence on a single lot within the Very Low (VL)
Residential District, Hillside Overlay, and Equestrian Overlay, and there is no substantial
evidence that the project may have a significant effect on the environment.
K. The residence meets all applicable development standards and zoning regulations of the
Development Code. Therefore, staff finds that there is no substantial evidence that the
project will have a significant effect on the environment.
L. Public Art: This project is exempt from providing public art as outlined in Chapter 17.124 of
the Development Code. The proposed project is a single-family residence. Residential
projects with a density equal to or less than four dwelling units per acre are exempt from the
public art requirement.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The project site currently is assessed an annual property tax. A percentage of this annual tax is
shared with the City. The proposed development will increase the value of the project site and the
City’s annual share of the property tax will increase accordingly. The project proponent also will
be responsible for paying one-time impact fees. These fees are intended to address the
increased demand for City services due to the proposed project. The following types of services
that these impact fees would support include the following: library services, transportation
infrastructure, drainage infrastructure, animal services, police, parks, and community and
recreation services.
COUNCIL GOAL(S) ADDRESSED:
Although a specific current City Council goal does not apply to the project, the project is consistent
with the goals and policies of the General Plan and the objectives of the Development Code. The
Land Use element within the General Plan (Chapter 2) encourages infill development that
facilitates sustainable and attractive development that complements the surrounding
neighborhood. The proposed single-family residence is of similar scale and size to that of the
surrounding neighborhood, and the land use and lot dimensions are in compliance with the
Development Code. The contemporary design of the residence complements the eclectic
architectural styles in the neighborhood.
CORRESPONDENCE:
This item was advertised as a public hearing with a regular legal advertisement in the Inland
Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were mailed to all property
owners within a 660 foot radius of the project site. No comments were received in response to
these notifications.

HILLSIDE DESIGN REVIEW DRC2018-01013 – RAMY IBRAHIM - Site plan and architectural
review of a 3,030 square foot single-family residence with an attached 866 square foot garage
on a 20,000 square foot lot within the Very Low (VL) Residential District, the Hillside Overlay
and the Equestrian Overlay at 5034 Via Verde - APN: 1061-201-09. This item is exempt from
the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City’s CEQA
guidelines under CEQA Section 15303 – New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures,
which permits the construction of a single-family residence in a residential zone.
Site Characteristics: The 20,000 square foot vacant project site is located on the east side of Via
Verde and south of Almond Street, within the Very Low (VL) Residential District, the Hillside
Overlay and Equestrian Overlay. The property dimensions are approximately 200 feet along the
north property line, 100 feet along the east property line, 100 feet along the west property line,
and 200 feet along the south property line. The downslope lot has an elevation of approximately
2,185 feet as measured at the curb face along the east property line and an elevation of
approximately 2,158 feet as measured along the west property line, for a maximum grade
change of approximately 27 feet from the east to west property lines. The site is covered in
short grasses and is bordered by single-family residences to the north, south, east, and west.
The existing Land Use, General Plan and Zoning Designations for the project site and adjacent
properties are as follows:

Project Overview: The applicant is requesting to construct a 3,030 square foot two-story, single-
family residence on the project site. The proposed grading includes up to 6’-11” of fill, and 5’-3”
of cut which necessitates that the project be reviewed and approved by the Planning
Commission per Section 17.122.020.G.1.I.

view obstructions. The building mass is broken up through the use of multiple wall plane
changes and the incorporation of exterior decks along the west elevation.
The proposed 3,030 square foot residence consists of a 2,886 square foot lower level, which
includes the main living area and a bedroom, and a 1,080 square foot upper level, which
includes two additional bedrooms. The upper and lower levels each include decks along the
west elevations. The size of the 3,030 square foot residence is in keeping with homes
constructed along Via Verde, which range in size from 1,951 square feet to 5,317 square feet.
A three-car garage is located underneath the southern portion of the first story of the residence,
with the garage door facing east and accessed by a driveway with up to a 10 percent grade.
Hillside Development Standard 17.122.020.C.1.D. states that driveways with grades up to 20
percent are permitted when they are aligned with the natural contours of the lot and are
necessary to achieve site design goals.
Very Low Residential District Code Compliance: The project complies with the requirements of
the Very Low (VL) Residential District. The development requirements are as follows:
Hillside Overlay Code Compliance: The project complies with the intent of the Hillside Overlay,
which seeks to facilitate appropriate development of hillside areas. The project site is a
downslope lot with an elevation change of approximately 13 feet from the north to south
property lines and 27 feet from east to west property lines.
Retaining W alls: The maximum permitted retaining wall height is 4 feet within the Hillside
Overlay per Section 17.122.020.C.1.G, with stepped retaining walls permitted to have a
maximum height of 3 feet with a minimum 3 foot separation between the stepped walls. No
retaining walls are proposed in excess of 4 feet and a minimum 3 foot separation is proposed
between the stepped retaining wall. The proposed perimeter walls are in keeping with Hillside
Design Guideline Sections 17.122.020.E., having walls that integrate the materials and colors
used of the residence.
Perimeter Walls and Fencing: The applicant is not proposing any perimeter walls at this time.
The existing residences to the north and south have existing perimeter walls in place.
Grading: The proposed grading design limits earthwork to 34 cubic yards of import, which is
necessary to construct the driveway and foundation of the residence. The foundation of the
residence is stepped with the existing grade, with the upper pad at an elevation of 2,188 feet
Development Requirements Proposed

and the lower garag e pad at an elevation of 2,175, in conformance with Hillside Design Section
17.122.020.D.1.a., to terrace the building to follow the slope.
Building Envelope Analysis: Hillside Design Section 17.122.020.D.1.C. requires that residences
in the Hillside Overlay be designed to fit within a 30-foot high building envelope. The applicant
has provided two north-south and two east-west cross-sections with building envelopes
demonstrating compliance with the 30-foot height requirement.
View Analysis: In conformance with Hillside Design Section 17.122.020.D.2., the residence has
increased side yard setbacks to avoid the appearance of overbuilding or crowding the lot and to
minimize view obstructions.
Landscape: The proposed front yard landscaping is designed to comply with Hillside
Development Section 17.122.020.F., which requires new development to include the use of
drought-tolerant landscaping to protect slopes from erosion and planting shrubs to soften the
views of the downslope elevations. The proposed front landscaping complies with the front yard
landscape requirements, including reducing hardscape to less than 50 percent of the front yard
area. The proposed front yard landscaping does not exceed the maximum applied water
allowance (MAW A) which meets the criteria of State Model Water Efficient Landscape
Ordinance (MWELO) Section 17.82.020. All vegetation shall be designed and installed in
accordance to the guidelines from the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District (RCFPD) for
sites located in the Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (VHFHSZ) fire area and is in the
designated Wildland-Urban Interface Fire Area.
Staff Comments
Staff is in support of the architectural, site, and grading design for the proposed 3,030 square
foot residence. The project conforms with the Development Code and the Hillside Design
Standards and Guidelines, including providing a grading design that balances the requirement
to reduce cut and fill to the greatest extent possible and to reduce the height of the structure to
limit view obstructions as seen from the residences to the north. The residence is well-designed
and carries the design theme to all elevations, including providing wall plane articulation. The
residence is stepped with the existing grade and includes a garage tucked underneath the
house, further reducing the overall bulk as seen from Via Verde. Earthwork is limited to 34 cubic
yards of import and grading is limited to the area necessary to construct the residence, driveway
and patio deck area to the west of the residence. The proposed design does not require
Variances or Minor Exceptions, and the size of the residence is in keeping with the existing
residences constructed along Via Verde.
Major Issues: None
Secondary Issues: None
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Committee review the project and provide
comments as warranted. If the Committee finds the project acceptable, Staff recommends that
it be forwarded to the Planning Commission for review and action.

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 September 25, 2019, including written and oral staff reports,
together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. The applicant is requesting to construct a 3,030 square foot single-family residence

Design. The proposed design does not require Variances or Minor Exceptions, and the square footage
is in keeping with the other residences along Via Verde; and
e. The residence is in compliance with Hillside Design Section 17.122.020.D.1.e., which
requires that residences in the Hillside Overlay District be designed to fit within a 30-foot high building
envelope. The applicant has provided two north-south and two east-west cross-sections with building
envelopes demonstrating compliance with the 30-foot height requirement; and
f. Retaining walls are limited to 4 feet in height or less, in keeping with Hillside
Development Section 17.122.020.G.1.j.
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 proposed project is consistent with the General Plan. The General Plan Land Use
designation of the project site is Very Low (VL) Residential District. The Very Low (VL) Residential
designation is intended for the development of detached, low-density residences on individual lots. The
General Plan also has a goal of facilitating sustainable and attractive infill development that
complements surrounding neighborhoods. The project is for the development of a single-family
residence on an existing residential lot that is complementary to the surrounding neighborhood.
b. The proposed use is in accord with the objective of the Development Code and the
purposes of the district in which the site is located. The Development Code states that the Very Low
(VL) Residential District is for the development of single-family residential uses with a minimum lot size
of 7,200 square feet and a maximum residential density of 4 units per gross acre. The project site is an
existing 20,000-square foot vacant lot that was intended for the development of a single-family
residence.
c. The proposed use is in compliance with each of the applicable provisions of the
Development Code, including building setback, building height, lot coverage, grading limitations and
design. The project complies with the requirements of the Very Low (VL) Residential District, Hillside
Overlay, and Equestrian Overlay. The required front yard setback is 42 feet (plus or minus 5 feet), the
required side yard setbacks are 10 and 15 feet and the required rear yard setback is 60 feet. The
proposed front yard setback is 42 feet, the side yard setbacks are 10 feet and 18 feet, and the rear yard
setback is 96 feet. Lot coverage is 14.5 percent, well below the maximum permitted lot coverage of 25
percent. The overall building height is 30 feet, which is at the maximum permitted height limit within the
Hillside Overlay District.
d. 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. The proposed single-family residence is in keeping with the existing residences in the
surrounding area and is not expected to create a detrimental impact on the existing residences. The
size of the residence is in keeping with the size of the existing homes constructed along Via Verde.
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 as a Class 3 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15303, which
permits the construction of a single-family residence in a residential zone. The project is for the
construction of a single-family residence in a residential zone and 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.

Commission hereby approves the application subject to each and every condition set forth in the
Standard Conditions, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference
