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: a. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan. The General Plan land use designation is Very Low, which permits the development of single-family residences with a maximum density of 2 units per acre. The project is for the development of single-family residences with a density of .96 units per acre; and 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 project site is within the Very Low (VL) Residential District. The project complies with all the requirements of the Development Code except for wall height. The applicant has submitted a Minor Exception (DRC2021-00019) to permit walls up to 8 feet in height; and c. The proposed use is in compliance with each of the applicable provisions of the Development Code. The project complies with each of the requirements of the Development Code except for wall height. The applicant has submitted a Minor Exception (DRC2022-00340) to permit a wall up to 8 feet in height; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 23-03 DESIGN REVIEW DRC2020-00407 — DESIGN CONCEPTS February 22, 2023 Page 3 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 project site is vacant; the proposed land use is consistent with the land uses within the surrounding area where the site is located and the expectations of the community. The zoning of the property and all surrounding properties is Very Low (VL) Residential District. 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 15 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15315 — Minor Land Divisions and a Class 3 Exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15303, New Construction and Conversion of Small Structures. The project is for the subdivision of 1.93 acres into two parcels of land and the construction of 2 single-family residences in a residential zone. 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 with the staff's determination of exemption. 5. The Secretary to this Commission shall certify the adoption of this Resolution. APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 22ND DAY OF FEBRUARY 2023.

The site shall be rough graded to eliminate all cross -lot drainage, (except in approved facilities adjacent to private trails). All slopes and retaining walls necessary to accomplish this shall be installed prior to final map approval. 25. Flow lines steeper than 6 percent could be erosive. The applicant shall provide hard lined gutters and swales where concentrated flows exceed 3fps, and anywhere that flow lines exceed 10 percent. This shall be shown on the grading and drainage plan prior to issuance of a grading permit. 26. Prior to issuance of a grading permit and in accordance with Planning Commission Resolution 92-17, if a lot may not directly drain off -site directly to the street or other acceptable drainage device (such as a drainage ditch adjacent to an equestrian trail), then: a) drainage may flow from only one lot onto only one other lot; b) a drainage easement shall be provided over the lot accepting the drainage; c) the drainage shall be contained within either a concrete/rock lined swale/channel or a reinforced concrete pipe; and d) the drainage shall be designed with excess capacity to account for the probable lack of necessary maintenance, therefore, it shall be designed to convey two (2) times the runoff from a 100-year storm event with the minimum diameter of the pipe being 12-inches. 27. Private sewer, water, and storm drain improvements will be designed per the latest adopted California Plumbing Code. Private storm drain improvements shall be shown on the grading and drainage plan. www.CityofRC.us Printed. 1/24/2023 Page 12 of 17 Project #: DRC2020-00407 Project Name: Archibald Two Location: 5647 ARCHIBALD AVE - Project Type: Hillside Development Review ALL OF THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS APPLY TO YOUR PROJECT: Grading Section Standard Conditions of Approval 28.

Use of structural infiltration treatment BMPs shall not cause or contribute to an exceedance of ground water quality objectives. b. Source control and pollution prevention control BMPs shall be implemented to protect groundwater quality. The need for pre-treatment BMPs such as sedimentation or filtration should be evaluated prior to infiltration. c. Adequate pretreatment of runoff prior to infiltration shall be required in gas stations and large commercial parking lots. (NOTE: The State Water Quality Control Board defines a large commercial parking lot as '100,000 sq. ft. or more of commercial development to include parking lot (with 100 or more vehicle traffics), OR, by means of 5,000sgft or more of allowable space designated for parking purposes'). d. Unless adequate pre-treatment of runoff is provided prior to infiltration structural infiltration treatment BMPs must not be used for areas of industrial or light industrial activity{77), areas subject to high vehicular traffic (25,000 or more daily traffic); car washes; fleet storage areas; nurseries; or any other high threat to water quality land uses or activities. e. Class V injection wells or dry wells must not be placed in areas subject to vehicular{78) repair or maintenance activities{79), such as an auto body repair shop, automotive repair shop, new and used car dealership, specialty repair shop (e.g., transmission and muffler repair shop) or any facility that does any vehicular repair work. f. Structural infiltration BMP treatment shall not be used at sites that are known to have soil and groundwater contamination. g. Structural infiltration treatment BMPs shall be located at least 100 feet horizontally from any water supply wells. h. The vertical distance from the bottom of any infiltration structural treatment BMP to the historic high groundwater mark shall be at least 10-feet. Where the groundwater basins do not support beneficial uses, this vertical distance criteria may be reduced, provided groundwater quality is maintained. i. Structural infiltration treatment BMPs shall not cause a nuisance or pollution as defined in Water Code Section 13050. 48. 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". �.CityofRC.us Printed'. 1/24/2023 Page 16 of 17 Project #: DRC2020-00407 Project Name: Archibald Two Location: 5647 ARCHIBALD AVE - Project Type: Hillside Development Review ALL OF THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS APPLY TO YOUR PROJECT. - Grading Section Standard Conditions of Approval 49.

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, 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. 50.
