d. Per Table 17.64.050-1 of the Development Code, the parking requirement is based on
the proposed mix of office, warehouse, and manufacturing floor areas in the building. The project is
required to have 96 vehicle parking spaces as shown in the table below:

1 - The project does not meet the parking requirements of the Development Code,
2 - For warehouse 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 second 20,000 square feet; and 1 space per 4,000 square feet for additional boor area in excess of the first 40,000 square feet;
3 - The trailer parking requirement is calculated separately from the standard parking requirement and is based on a ratio of one stall per dock
door. Four (4) spaces are required -one (1) space is proposed.
e. The application is a request to reduce the parking requirement for the project. Per
Table 17.64.050-1 of the Development Code, 96 parking stalls are required based on the uses within
the building. The project contemplates 74 parking spaces (a deficit of 22 parking spaces). The request
is for a 23% reduction in the parking requirement. To support this request, the applicant submitted a
parking analysis prepared by Kunzman Associates, Inc. on April 9, 2018; and
f. The parking analysis reviewed two other Five Star Food facilities, that when combined
were similar to the project, to establish a basis for determining the actual parking demand for the
project. This demand was calculated by adding the existing peak parking demand and the calculated
parking requirement for two separate facilities and adding a ten (10) percent "overage factor" which is a
recommended practice in the traffic engineering community. According to the analysis, the projected
maximum peak parking demand for the proposed project is 67 parking spaces; and
g. Associated with this Minor Exception are Design Review DRC2018-00326, Variance
DRC2018-00760, and Minor Exception DRC2018-00762 for requests to construct an industrial building,
reduce the trailer parking requirement, and reduce the side building setback on the east side of the
project site.
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:
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 19-26
MINOR EXCEPTION DRC2018-00761— CHARLES JOSEPH ASSOCIATES FOR FIVE STAR FOODS
April 10, 2019
Page 3
a. The minor exception is consistent with the general plan or any applicable specific plan
or development agreement. The General Plan land use designation of the project site is Industrial Park.
The industrial manufacturing and warehousing project is consistent with the other industrial uses in the
area and therefore consistent with the intent of the Industrial Park designation of the General Plan. The
General Plan does not establish a procedure for reducing parking requirements but recognizes the
Development Code as the governing document for land use and parking requirements. The
Development Code permits a reduction of up to 25% of parking spaces for a site. The proposed Minor
Exception is for a reduction of approximately 23% of the total parking onsite (96 spaces reduced to 74
spaces). Therefore, the proposed parking reduction request is consistent with the Development Code
and General Plan.
b. The proposed development is compatible with existing and proposed land uses in the
surrounding area. The proposed project is an industrial building of 58,130 square feet for office,
manufacturing, and warehousing for a food manufacturer. It is similar with the other industrial uses and
buildings in the vicinity. Per Table 17.64.050-1 of the Development Code, 96 parking stalls are required
based on the uses within the building. The project contemplates a reduction in the parking requirement
by 22 parking spaces that will result, if approved, a project with 74 parking spaces. The applicant
submitted a parking analysis prepared by Kunzman Associates, Inc. on April 9, 2018. Using the
methodology in the analysis, the projected maximum peak parking demand for the proposed project is
67 parking spaces. Therefore, the reduction in the parking requirement will not have an impact on the
surrounding area and/or uses and the project will be compatible with the existing land uses.
C. The proposed exception to the specific development standard(s) is necessary to allow
creative design solutions compatible with the desires of the communityand/or accommodate unique site
conditions. Per Table 17.64.050-1 of the Development Code, 96 parking stalls are required based on
the uses within the building. The project contemplates a reduction in the parking requirement by 22
parking spaces that will result, if approved, a project with 74 parking spaces. The applicant submitted a
parking analysis prepared by Kunzman Associates, Inc. on April 9, 2018. Using the methodology in the
analysis, the projected maximum peak parking demand for the proposed project is 67 parking spaces.
Additional parking spaces on -site would be underutilized and therefore would not be an efficient use of
the property. Furthermore, near the northeast comer of the site there is a wireless communication
facility. This facility is about 1,344 square feet in area and is located where parking stalls could have
been placed based on the layout and plotting of the building. It is unlikely that the communications
facility could be relocated on -site or to another location off -site.
d. The granting of the minor exception will not constitute a grant of special privilege
inconsistent with the limitations on other properties classified in the same district, and will not be
detrimental to public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in
the vicinity. The reduction in the parking requirement will not be a grant of special privilege as other
industrial users with similar operating characteristics as Five Star Foods could request a Minor
Exception with a parking study for consideration by the City. Per the parking analysis prepared by
Kunzman Associates, Inc. on April 9, 2018, the projected maximum peak parking demand for the
proposed project is 67 parking spaces. does not warrant all of the required parking and, therefore, one
of the primary reasons for needing the parking spaces — to ensure safe, aesthetically attractive, and
convenient parking and to ensure that parking is compatible with surrounding land uses — will be
fulfilled. Therefore, it is expected that the reduction in parking will not be detrimental to public health,
safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity.
4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the proposed Mitigated Negative
Declaration, together with all written and oral reports included forthe environmental assessment forthe
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 19-26
MINOR EXCEPTION DRC2018-00761 — CHARLES JOSEPH ASSOCIATES FOR FIVE STAR FOODS
April 10, 2019
Page 4
application, the Planning Commission finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project will
have a significant effect upon the environment and adopts a Mitigated Negative Declaration and
Monitoring Program attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference, based upon the findings
as follows:
a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQK) 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 projectwould 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.
b. During the public comment period, Staff received a comment letter from the South
Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) on March 20, 2019. That agency had two sets of
comments. The first set were general comments that summarized the project and their determination
that the project's construction and operational emissions would not exceed SCAQMD's air quality CEQA
significance thresholds. The second set related to potential permits to allow the use of certain
manufacturing equipment. The comment letter was forwarded to the applicant's environmental
consultant. They provided a response to the comments that 1) acknowledged the first set of comments,
and 2) indicated that none of the equipment that would be used require any special permits or
registration. Staff reviewed the comments from SCAQMD and the applicant's consultant's responses
and has concluded that no revisions to, and/or recirculation of, the IS/MND is required.
C. 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.
d. 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.
e. 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 City Planner 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. 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 in the
attached Conditions of Approval and Mitigation Monitoring Checklist incorporated herein.
6. The Secretary to this Commission shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.
