FROM: Matt Marquez, Director of Planning and Economic Development
INITIATED BY: Vincent Acuna, Associate Planner
SUBJECT:
TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP – WE ARCHITECTS GROUP – A request to
subdivide a 3.89-acre parcel into two lots within the Very Low (VL)
Residential Zone, located at 5815 Etiwanda Avenue. APN: 0225-123-09.
This item is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) and the City’s CEQA guidelines under CEQA Section
15315 – Minor Land Divisions. Tentative Parcel Map SUBTPM20655.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Planning Commission take the following action:
• Approve Tentative Parcel Map SUBTPM20655 through the adoption of the attached Resolution and
Conditions of Approval.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
A request to subdivide a vacant 3.89-acre parcel into two lots measuring approximately 1.9 acres each.
PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION:
The applicant is proposing to subdivide a vacant 3.89-acre parcel located at 5815 Etiwanda Avenue into two
smaller parcels (see Exhibits A and B).
Page 2 of 3
After subdividing, each parcel will measure approximately 1.9 acres. Access to the site is taken from Etiwanda
Avenue, along the east side of the project site, which will remain unchanged. The existing land uses, General
Plan, and Zoning designations for the project site and surrounding properties are as follows:
PROJECT ANALYSIS:
The applicant is proposing to subdivide the subject property into two lots for future development. The two
resulting parcels meet all pertinent standards for the Very Low (VL) Residential zone, as demonstrated in the
table below.
The subdivision complies with the Subdivision Map Act. Aside from the subdivision, no physical changes or
development is being proposed on the subject property at this time. Any future development of the two parcels
will be subject to the City’s standard review process and all pertinent regulations in the Development Code.
CEQA DETERMINATION:
Planning 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 15
exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15315 – Minor Land Divisions, as the project involves the
subdivision of a lot into two parcels where no physical changes occur. Staff finds that there is no substantial
evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment. The Director of Planning and Economic
Development has reviewed staff’s determination of exemption, and based on his own independent judgment,
concurs with staff's determination of exemption.
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 660-foot radius of the project site. No
correspondence has been received in response to these notices.
COUNCIL MISSION / VISION / GOAL(S) ADDRESSED:
The proposed subdivision supports the City Council’s core values of building and preserving a family-oriented
atmosphere. The proposed subdivision will create two smaller parcels that are suitable for residential

RESIDENTIAL ZONE, LOCATED AT 5815 ETIWANDA AVENUE; AND
MAKING FINDINGS IN SUPPORT THEREOF – APN: 0225-123-09
A.Recitals.
1. The applicant, We Architects Group, filed an application for Tentative Parcel Map
SUBTPM20655, as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the
subject Tentative Parcel Map is referred to as "the application."
2.On January 25, 2023, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga
conducted a noticed public hearing on the application.
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 the Planning Commission during
the above-referenced public hearing on January 25, 2023, including written and oral staff reports,
together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
a.The application applies to property located within the City; and
b.The application applies to a vacant 3.89-acre parcel located at 5815 Etiwanda
Avenue located within the Very Low (VL) Residential zone; and
c.The application proposes the subdivision of the 3.89-acre site into two parcels,
measuring 1.95 and 1.93 acres respectively; and
d. The application proposes no physical changes to the site. The project site will
continue to meet or exceed all pertinent Development Code standards at the time of permit
approval.
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.That the tentative parcel map is consistent with the General Plan and
Development Code. The General Plan designates the project site as Suburban Neighborhood
Very Low. The Development Code designates the project site as Very Low (VL) Residential. The
Exhibit C
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO.23-01
TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP SUBTPM20301 - CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA
January 25, 2023
Page 2
VL zoning designates areas for semi-rural residential use, with a minimum lot size of 20,000
square feet and a maximum residential density of up to 2 units per gross acre. No physical
changes are being proposed to the site.
b. The design or improvements of the tentative parcel map is consistent with the
General Plan and Development Code. The project proposes no physical changes to the site. The
two new lots created as part of this subdivision will meet all pertinent Development Code
provisions.
c. The site is physically suitable for the proposed development. No physical
changes are being proposed to the site with this application. All future development to the site will
be required to comply with Development Code requirements through a separate permit.
d. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause substantial environmental
damage or avoidable injury to humans and wildlife or their habitat. The proposed project is only
for the subdivision of the project site into two parcels. No building construction is proposed in
conjunction with this tentative parcel map. No environmental impacts are expected.
e. The tentative parcel map is not likely to cause serious public health problems.
The proposed project is only for the subdivision of the project site into three parcels. No building
construction is proposed in conjunction with this tentative parcel map. No health impacts are
expected.
f. The design of the tentative parcel 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. All existing public easements will be retained as existing and direct access to all
easement areas from the public right-of-way will be maintained. Ownership rights pertaining to
individual parcels that comprise the project site will not supersede existing easement rights for
public access onto the site.
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 15
exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15315 – Minor Land Divisions, as the project
involves the subdivision of an existing lot into two parcels where no physical changes occur. 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 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.
APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 25TH DAY OF JANUARY 2023.
