PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION:
Action Requested By Applicant: The applicant is requesting a series
of non-construction Conditional Use Permits for the previously
approved Conditional Use Permit 91-24. All of the Conditional Use
Permits being proposed at this time are classified as "Recreational
Facilities" by the Industrial Area Specific Plan (ISP) which are
conditionally permitted in Subarea 7.
Site Characteristics: The 27-acre site is primarily vacant except
for the Maei Winery building which is currently being utilized by
the Victory Chapel and as a leasing office. The northern portion of
the site has recently undergone several modifications to the site
plan and building footprints. The revised site plan is indicated in
Exhibit "B."

ANALYSIS:
A. Genera%:
Conditional Use Permit 93-29 is for an indoor batting cage located
in Building 16 (See Exhibit "D"). Five indoor batting cages are
proposed as well as one "slam ball" court which can accommodate a
maximum of six players. One thousand square feet of the building
will be utilized for retail space which will sell equipment,
uniforms, cards, and related items. One hundred square feet will be
utilized for office space, with 200 square feet for a "party" room
and 100 square feet for a snack bar. The party room will be
utilized for small group birthday parties. Potential hours of
operation are from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week. The
facility will utilize approximately two to three employees.
~onditional Use Pez~it 93-30 is for a martial arts studio and will
occupy 2,000 square feet in Building 16. Potential hours of
operation are from 6:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. six days a week and from
12 noon to 7 p.m. on Sundays. The number of employees involved will
be approximately two to three instructors. The applicant has not
provided any information regarding class schedules or class sizes.
However, based upon a parking requirement of 13 spaces, staff would
recommend that occupancy be limited to 13 students and instructors
at any one time. There are several martial arts studios currently
operating within industrial locations in the City which have not
resulted in any complaints. Therefore, staff's opinion is that the
proposed use would be compatible with surrounding businesses.
Conditional Use Permit 93-32 is for a billiards parlor which will
occupy all of Building 14. Approximately 50 percent of the building
area will be utilized for "family" billiards. The remainder will be
for adults only. The applicant is also proposing full food and
liquor service with this application. The applicant has indicated
that food and beverages will be served to patrons by
waiters/waitresses at the billiards tables.
The foo~ preparation area, coolers, storage, and snack bar area
along with the full service bar total approximately 1,500 square
feet. Seating will be provided at the bar and there will be eight
high top bar tables adjacent to the bar where patrons may also
sit. The foo~ end bar service is considered to be ancillary to the
billiards use.
A portion of the billiards area is restricted to patrons over 21.
The remaining area will be for families. The food service area is
two-sided and will physically separate the adult area from the
family area. The "under 21" area will have four cafe style tables
adjacent to the snack bar area.

CUP'S 93-29, 30, & 32 - MASI
January 26, 1994
Page 3
The user originally requested 34 tables, however, available parking
adjacent to Building 14 will only accommodate 29 tables. The
Development Code uses a ratio of 2 spaces per billiard table and
does not require that any ancillary uses (such as the bar and food
service area) be calculated separately. There are 58 parking spaces
directly adjacent to Building 14 which will be utilized completely
if 29 tables are permitted. Staff is recommending that only 29
tables be allowed (see Exhibit
Proposed business hours for the facility will be from 10 a.m. to
3 a.m. Typically one to two employees will be at the facility until
6 p.m. At that point, approximately five to six employees will be
at the facility. Normally, when conditional use permits which
involve the serving of alcohol are reviewed, the hours of operation
of such facilities are limited. However, because of the proximity
of this facility to the industrial area and the potential expended
hours of operation at the nearby Sports Complex, it was not felt to
be a major issue in this particular instance. There is a lack of
specific information regarding the floor plan and space allocation
for this particular facility. Therefore, the applicant will be
required to submit a full operational plan, including number of
employees, allocation of space, and indoor and outdoor security
measures to be employed.
The applicant has not expressed the desire to install any amusement
devices on the premises (which would require a conditional use
permit).
Be
ComPatibility: The main consideration with any proposed use within
a center is one of compatibility. The three uses proposed are
compatible with each other and with the Conditional Use Permits

Note that the Development Code does not provide a specific ratio for
batting cages. A survey was conducted of different cities in the area and
none of the jurisdictions contacted had a specific parking standard for
this type of use. The City of Anaheim requires applicants to conduct a
parking study to justify their proposed parking, while the City of Ontario
requires one space per batting cage (if located in a multi-tenant
industrial building, they require a ratio of 1/500). The number used here
is based on the assumption that one car would be utilizing each cage at
any one time, while a group in a second car would be arriving and/or
leaving, (i.e., it provides for a certain amount of overlap).

Dear Beverly:
Please find aCCached a floor plan for a 1],500 s.f. faciliCy ~hat
our proposed user has made for his La Mesa facility. Unlike ours,
=his facility has a mezzanine; it is also over 500 a.f. larger.

DRAFT SUBSEQUENT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT - GENERAL DYNAMICS - A
public hearing on a Draft Subsequent EIR for the General Dynamics
Rancho Cucamonga Subarea Specific Plan 93-01, General Plan
Amendment 93-02A, and Industrial Area Specific Plan Amendment 93-03
for the redevelopment of 380 acres of land that would include
recreational, co~nercial, and retail facilities surrounding an
18-hole golf course, bounded on the south by 4th Street, on the
east by Milliken Avenue, on the north by the A. T. & S. F.
(Metrolink) Railroad, and on the west by Cleveland Avenue and Utica
Street.
ABSTRACT: The purpose of tonight's public hearing is to receive public comments
on the Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR). No action is needed.
BACKGROUND: On October 6, 1993, the City Council approved a Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) regarding the development and processing of plans for the
General Dynamics property. The MOU set forth the intent of the City and General
Dynamics to process a specific plan and related amendments; defined the various
type of applications and environmental documents; and established a processing
schedule and working relationship between the applicant, the City, and the
Redevelopment Agency.
The MOU established the scope of this DEIR based upon the concept plan contained
in the MOU for developing the site. Under the terms of the MOU, the DEIR was
prepared by the applicant's consultants subject to the City's independent review
and analysis. Copies of the DEIR have been provided under separate cover.
THE PROJECT: The proposed project is a Specific Plan for the development of 380
acres owned by General Dynamics and formerly occupied by its Air Defense Systems
Division. As proposed, the Specific Plan would provide for the establishment of
a broader mixture of uses than currently permitted under the City's existing
Industrial Area Specific Plan. The plan envisions a mixed-use project that may
include such uses as recreational, entertainment, hotel/conference center,
retail, restaurant, office, research and development, and light industrial (see
Exhibit 3-3 in the DEIR). These uses would surround an 18-hole championship
public .golf course, clubhouse, and golf training facility that would comprise
nearly 40 percent of the project site. The plan would provide for the adaptive
commercial and industrial reuse of the three existing buildings on-site. The
plan also provides for the City's Metrolink station at the northeast corner of
the site.

PLANNING CO~4ISSION STAFF REPORT
EIR - GENERAL DYNAMICS
January 26, 1994
Page 2
The Specific Plan, related amendments, and various permits to be issued by the
City, are considered as the "project" as defined by the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA).
THE EIR PROCESS: Under CEQA, the City, as the lead agency, is responsible to
cause the preparation of an EIR. With the adoption of the MOU, a decision was
made to prepare an EIR and a Notice of Preparation (NOP) was sent to other
agencies on October 15, 1993. The NOP immediately triggered a series of meetings
with these agencies, conducted by staff and the applicant, to obtain their input
on the content of the EIR. The written comments of these agencies are included
in Appendix A of the EIR.
A screencheck DEIR was submitted to City staff for review and comment on December
~4, ~993. Staff forwarded co~m~ents back to the applicant on December 29, 1993.
Staff met with the applicant and consultants on January 4, ~994, to review our
comments. Staff's comments were minor in nature and did not require major
revisions to the DEIR.
A Notice of Completion for the DEIR was filed on January 21, ~994, with the
public release of the document and transmittal of copies of the DEIR to other
agencies and the local branch library. This began a 45-day period for the public
to review and co~nent on the DEIR which will close on March 7, 1994. Tonight's
public hearing is being held to provide an opportunity for public comment on the
DEIR. Comments on the DEIR may be both in written form and oral testimony at
tonight's hearing. During the public review period, we will concurrently be
conducting Planning Commission workshops on the Draft Specific Plan.
Following the close of the public review period, written responses will be
prepared on any environmental issue comments received from persons or agencies
who reviewed the DEIR. The response to comments may take the form of a revision
to the DEIR or included as a separate section in the Final EIR. The response to
comments will be submitted to the Planning Commission on April 7, ~994. The
final Commission hearing on the Draft Specific Plan and General Plan and
Industrial Area Specific Plan Amendments, together with the final action on the
DEIR is anticipated on April 27, ~994.
The Planning Commission recommendations will be forwarded to the City Council.
The City Council is the final approval body for the Specific Plan and related
amendments, an4 must certify the EIR as adequate. Prior to approving the General
Dynamics Suber~ 18 S~ecific Plan and related amendments, the City must adopt
findings and certify the final EIR. Following project approval, the City will
file a Notice of Determination with the County Clerk.
ANALYSIS: This DEIR has been prepared in conformance with CEQA and is intended
to inform decision-makers and the public generally of the significant
environmental effect of this project. In addition, the DEIR identifies possible
ways to minimize (i.e., "m{tigate") the significant effects and describes
reasonable alternatives to the project.
PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT
EIR - GENERAL DYNAMICS
January 26, 1994
Page 3
For a summary of the findings of the DEIR, please refer to the section starting
on Page 2-1. Briefly, the significant environmental effects identified by the
DEIR, and associated mitigation measures, are in the areas of land use planning,
traffic and circulation, air quality, and water quality.
SIGNIFICANT UNAVOIDABLE ADVERSE IMPACTS: The DEIR provides a description of the
potential environmental impacts of the proposed project, as well as mitigation
measures to reduce the environmental impacts as much as possible. The DEIR
identifies two impacts that would not be reduced to a level of less than
significant after implementation of the proposed mitigation measures. The two
significant unavoidable impacts include the long-term loss of agricultural land
on the project site and the short-term impact on air quality during construction.
The loss of approximately 305 acres of producing vineyards would also occur under
the existing Industrial Area Specific Plan land use designations. Since the
project. includes a 155-acre golf course, the potential exists for conversion back
to agricultural use, which would not be possible under the current ISP.
Therefore, development of the proposed project is considered to have a lesser
significant and unavoidable impact.
During construction of the project, a measurable increase in airborne dust will
occur. This "fugitive dust" would be reduced by implementing the measures
required by the South Coast Air Quality Management District; however, the level
of dust would still be significant for the duration of grading and excavation
activity. The dust problem would also occur under the existing ISP.
STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS: The City Council must balance the
benefits of this proposed project against its unavoidable environmental risks in
determining whether to approve the project. If the benefits outweigh the
unavoidable adverse effects, these effects may be considered "acceptable." CEQA
requires the City to adopt a written statement of its views that the significant
unavoidable adverse impacts are acceptable due to the overriding concerns. The
statement would be included in the project approval resolution for City Council.
ALTERNATIVES: The CEQA Guidelines require the EIR to analyze a reasonable range
of alternatives that could feasibly attain the objectives of the project.
"Feasible" means capable of being successfully accomplished in a reasonable time
frame, and taking into consideration economic, environmental, social, and
technological factors. The EIR must focus on those alternatives which could
eliminate or reduce significant environmental impacts, including a no-project
alternative.
Of the three alternatives analyzed, in addition to the two no-project
alternatives addressed, none were found to meet the project objectives as defined
by the MOU. Under the residential alternative, the project site was analyzed as
if it were to be developed with 2,560 residential units surrounding the golf
course and 1.6 million square feet of co~ercial and industrial uses. This
alternative was found to result in fewer impacts in sc~e areas, yet greater
impacts in others. There are no other large tracts of undeveloped land available
which meet the project criteria.

MITIGATION MC~ITORING PROGRAM: State law requires the City to adopt a monitoring
program for the changes to the project which are required or mitigation measures
which are adopted. Essentially this is a reporting program designed to ensure
compliance during project implementation. The .Mitigation Monitoring Plan (MMP)
for the Subarea 18 Specific Plan will be adopted by City Council as part of the
project approval findings. The MMP will be in place through all phases of the
project, from initial design through construction and operation.
The MMP identifies each adopted measure or required changes in the project design
which mitigate or avoid significant environmental effects. For each mitigation,
the MMP lists who is responsible for implementing (i.e., developer or City); when
the mitigation is implemented (i.e., design, plan check, construction, etc.); and
who is responsible for monitoring and enforcing the mitigation. The ~WP also
establishes the reporting format and is intended to provide a means for decision
makers to gauge the effectiveness of mitigation measures.
CONCLUSION: Staff believes that the DEIR has been prepared in accordance with
CEQA and State guidelines and supports the adequacy of the DEIR.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Comission conduct a public
hearin~to receive public coments on the DEIR.

SPECIFIC PLAN 93-01 - GENERAL DYNAMICS - A plan for the development
of 380 acres of land that would include recreational, comercial,
and retail facilities surrounding an 18-hole golf course, bounded
on the south by 4th Street, on the east by Milliken Avenue, on the
north by the A. T. & S. F. (Metrolink) Railroad, and on the west by
Cleveland Avenue and Utica Street.
ABSTRACT: The purpose of tonight's meeting is to introduce the Draft Subarea
18 Specific Plan proposed by General Dynamics. The purpose of this report is
to outline the intended purpose of the Specific Plan, major issues, and the
anticipated schedule for review. No action is needed.
BACKGROUND: On October 6, 1993, the City Council approved a Memorandum of
Understanding (MO~3) with General Dynamics regarding the development and
processing of plans for the General Dynamics property. The MOU set forth the
intent of the City and General Dynamics to prepare a Specific Plan for the
380-acre site. A complete description of the project is included in the
related staff report for the Draft Environmental Impact Report.
WHY DO A SPECIFIC PLAN? The General Dynamics property is the largest
undeveloped landholding in the industrial area under single ownership. The
site characteristics include convenient freeway access, frontage on major
arterials, and proximity to Ontario Airport and the California Co~-erce
Center. The current Industrial Area Specific Plan regulations were adopted in
1981. Since then many important changes have occurred both in the co,unity
and region, as well as in the marketplace, that justify taking a fresh look at
our policies and regulations. These changes include the importance of the
Ontario Airport as a hub for international flights, approval of the California
Commerce Center North, the decline in the national defense industry, the
recent com~letion of the Rancho Cucamonga Sports Complex, and the planned
Metrolink Station on the project site.
WMAT IS A SPECIFIC PLAN? The City's General Plan provides the overall
guidance for the physical development of the City through its goals,
objectives, policies, and programs for various subject areas (i.e., land use,
housing, circulation, open space, etc.). The Specific Plan provides a bridge
between the General Plan's broad policies and individual development
proposals. The Specific Plan addresses the same subject areas as the General
Plan, but for a localized area and in more detail. California law requires
that the Specific Plan specify the type, location, intensity, and timing of
development. In short, the Specific Plan implements the City's General Plan.

THE PROCESS: Tonight's meeting is the first in a series of public
meetings/hearings regaraing the Specific Plan. The City's procedures require
that the Specific Plan be reviewed as a public hearing by the Planning
Co~mission and City Council. Since the Specific Plan encompasses such a large
area and proposes such a large variety of uses, a series of workshops and
hearings have been planned.
The Planning Commission review process begins tonight with an introductory
presentation of the Specific Plan. Two workshops with the Planning Commission
are scheduled in February and March. The final Commission hearing on the
Specific Plan is anticipated on April 27, 1994. Agendas for the workshop
sessions are forthcoming. The major topic areas to be covered include land
use, design gnidelines, development standards, and review procedures.
Upon completion of the review of the Specific Plan, Draft Environmental Impact
Report, and related amendments by the Planning Co~ission, a public hearing
will be held before the City Council, probably in early June. Once approved
by the Council, including the Mitigation Monitoring Plan, and the Draft
Environmental Impact Report is certified, specific development proposals may
be considered. Conceptual designs are already underway on the golf course,
which is the first phase of development. It is anticipated that the golf
course may actually be submitted for review prior to adoption of the Specific
Plan and be processed concurrently.
ANALYSIS: The Specific Plan proposes a multi-use development composed of
11 interrelated Planning Areas organized around the central golf course
amenity. Distinguishing elements of the concept plan include an 18-hole
championship golf course with clubhouse and related training facilities,
a hotel/conference facility, possible family-oriented recreation/retail/
entertainment facility, a mixed-use commercial center, and a Metrolink
Station. The planning areas range in size from 16 acres up to 28 acres.
Approximately 75 acres of the site are fully developed with three
industrial/office buildings. The Specific Plan addresses potential adaptive
reuses for these three buildings.
ISSUES: Several key policy issues have been identified by staff which will be
introduced to,night and discussed during future workshops. These are briefly
described below:
Land Use - The Draft Specific Plan proposes changes in the land use with
the inclusion of a 155 acre 18-hole championship golf course and the
expansion of commercial retail uses not currently in the existing
Industrial Area Specific Plan.
Residential is also referenced in the Specific Plan as a possible use upon
further review. A full environmental analysis must occur if residential
is to be included as an approved use in the plan. At this time, the plan
simply references the possibility of residential.

Drainage - The drainage concept plan proposes permanent on-site detention
basins on the golf course. This design is contrary to City policy if
public waters are stored on private property because it would create
maintenance and liability problems for the City.
Ce
Review Process - The Specific Plan proposes changes in the regulatory
procedures for processing development projects which would be unique to
Subarea 18. The Specific Plan proposes changes in who performs the
review, and when, in order to expedite the process. For example, reviews
which are currently performed by the Planning Comission are proposed to
be delegated to the City Planner, including Subdivisions (see Section
6.2), Use Determinations (see Page 5-1), Conditional Use Permits (see
Page 5-2), and Master Plans (see Page 5-33). Those provisions are being
reviewed by staff. Changes to the development review procedures have been
discussed by the Commission in the recent past and staff supports some
consideration to modifying the current process.
RELATED AMENDMENTS: In conjunction with the Specific Plan, there are two
related applications: General Plan Amendment 93-02A and Industrial Specific
Plan Amendment 93-03. The amendment to the Industrial Area Specific Plan is
to add a new Subarea 18 along with other minor changes such as the
modification of existing circulation patterns. The General Plan Amendments
are similar to those proposed for the Industrial Area Specific Plan. The golf
course will be designated as Open Space and the remainder of the site
designated as mixed-use.
CONCLUSION: The Subarea 18 Specific Plan is the result of the cooperative
efforts of many persons and organizations through a long series of meetings.
These meetings included City staff, other affected public agencies, and the
applicant's consultant team as set forth in the MOU. An oral update will be
provided on the changes made in the Draft Specific Plan from the Screencheck
copy reviewed by staff.
