A. RECITALS. 1. Fairfield Development filed an application for Subarea 18 Specific Plan Amendment 00-04 as described in the title of this Ordinance. Hereinafter in this Ordinance, the subject Amendment is referred to as "the application." 2. On the 28th day of March 2001, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a duly noticed public hearing on the application and recommended approval of said application. 3. On May 2, 2001, the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a duly noticed public hearing on the application. 4. All legal prerequisites prior to the adoption of this Ordinance have occurred. B. ORDINANCE. NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby found, determined, and resolved by the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows: 1. This Council hereby specifically finds that all of the facts set forth in the Recitals, Part A, of this Ordinance are true and correct. 2. Based upon substantial evidence presented to this Council during the above- referenced public hearing on May 2, 2001, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Council hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application applies to property within the City; and b. The proposed amendment will not have a significant impact on the environment; and c. The proposed amendment is consistent with the flexible land use concept of the Mixed Use zoning designation of the Subarea 18 Specific Plan. 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Council during the above- referenced public hearing, and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2 above, this Council hereby finds and concludes as follows: Ordinance No. 656 Page 2 of 10 a. The amendment does not conflict with the Land Use Policies of the Subarea 18 Specific Plan or the General Plan, and will provide for the logical development of Planning Area VI; and b. The amendment promotes the goals and objectives of the Subarea 18 Specific Plan; and c. The proposed amendment will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity; and d. The subject application is consistent with the objectives of the Subarea 18 Specific Plan and the purposes of the Subarea 18 Specific Plan; and e. The proposed amendment is consistent with key land use objectives identified in the General Plan including; encouraging opportunities to mix different but compatible land uses and activities, promote land use patterns that encourage non-motorized modes of transportation, and organize land uses to promote the maximal opportunity for transit usage; and f. The inclusion of multi-family residential land use for Planning Area VI will provide an integrated environment that will respond to evolving market conditions, and will help to create a City that functions efficiently, is exciting to live in, and makes the best use of its various resources pursuant to the objectives of the General Plan. 4. An Environmental Impact Report (EIR) was prepared and certified as a Master EIR for the Rancho Cucamcnga Subarea 18 Specific Plan. The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 21157.1 provides that the preparation and certification of a Master EIR allows for the limited review of subsequent projects that were described in the Master EIR as being within the scope of the reporting accordance with certain requirements; however, because of the changes that are submitted by this project, an Addendum was prepared for said project. An Addendum to the Subarea 18 Specific Plan Final EIR is appropriate documentation, because some changes or additions are necessary to describe the proposed residential project, but none of the conditions described in the CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 calling for the preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred. The City Council has reviewed and considered the attached Addendum based on the following findings: a. There have not been substantial changes in the project that require major revisions to the previous EIR because of new significant environmental effects, or a substantial increase in severity of previously identified significant effects. b. There have not been substantial changes with respect to the cimumstances under which the project is undertaken, which will require major revisions to the previous EIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects, or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. c. There is no new information of substantial importance, which was not known, and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the EIR was certified as complete, that shows any of the following: 1 ) the project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR; 2) significant effects previously examined Ordinance No. 656 Page 3 of 10 will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR; 3) mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible, would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative, or 4) mitigation measures or alternatives, which are considerably different from those analyzed in the final EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measures or alternative. 5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1,2, 3, and 4 above, this Council hereby approves Subarea 18 Specific Plan Amendment No. 00-04, as shown in the Staff Report and attached Exhibit "A," as well as any related text, tables, figures, and maps to maintain consistency subject to each and every Condition set forth below: Planninq Division 1.
