VICINITY MAP CITY HALL CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA DATE: TO: FROM: BY: SUBJECT: CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA STAFF REPORT March 23, 1994 Chairman and Members of the Planning Co~nission Rick Gomez, Comunity Development Director Dan Coleman, Principal Planner SPECIFIC PLAN 93-01 - GENERAL DYNAMICS - A plan for the development of 380 acres of land that would include recreational, commercial, 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. SUMMARY: This is the second workshop concerning the proposed sub-Area 18 Specific Plan. This report focuses on design guidelines, development standards, and infrastructure phasing. The Commission's discussion will provide guidance on these issues which will enable staff to direct the applicant to revise the plan text prior to the next meeting. It is anticipated that the final Commission meeting will be held on April 27, 1994. ANALYSIS: The Sub-Area 18 Specific Plan document has been prepared in the same format as the current Industrial Area Specific Plan (ISP) wherever possible to simplify administration. Therefore, the basic organization of the documents, and its specific provisions, are based upon the ISP. This report will focus on those areas where the proposed Specific Plan differs in terms of policy standard and/or format. A. Design Guidelines (Section 5.3) - Topic No. ~ - Level of Detail - The proposed design guidelines offer the same level of detail and similar language as the current ISP for site planning, architecture, and landscape. The Draft Specific Plan does not propose an architectural theme for the project. Specific design elements are proposed to be established through master plans for each individual planning areas. Recomendation: In the absence of any unifying design theme, staff believes that a more definitive design theme is needed to create a distinguishing character for the project. These landscape and architectural elements should include a hierarchy of street furniture and landscape features. These missing elements should include, at a minimum, design concepts for entry statements, monumentation (project and directional) signs, and lighting standards. This can all be done through a design manual or Master Plan prior to the development of any planning area. ITEM A PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT SPECIFIC PLAN 93-01 - GENERAL DYNAMICS March 23, 1994 Page 2 Commission Action: Topic No. 2 - Golf Course (page 5-25) - The proposed guidelines establish the "edge" character of the golf course (i.e., where it meets the street or adjoins development parcels). A 6 to 8 foot high "golf theme view fence" within a minimum 10 foot wide perimeter "landscape transition buffer zone" is proposed wherever a planning area abuts the course. Along the street, such as 6th Street, the same treatment is proposed, except that pole-mounted, ball-barrier netting, not to exceed 70 feet in height, may be used. Said netting must be no closer than the minimum landscape setback line. Along the railroad track edges, a minimum 8 foot high chain link security fence, with a barbed wire topping, and/or bell-barrier netting, up to 50 feet in height, is proposed. The Draft EIR noise mitigation measures for the golf course identified the possible need for sound attenuation berriers (i.e., sound walls) along 4th Street, 6th $ureet, and the AT & SF railroad. The conflict between the open view fencing proposed in the Draft Specific Plan and the required sound barriers will require further study and evaluation. Recon~nendation: The Co-w%ssion should discuss the golf course edge treatment and, pending final analysis of the proposed design guidelines and noise analysis, establish adequate design guidelines in the Specific Plan. Commission Action: Topic No. 3. - Building Height (page 5-17) - Plan proposes maximum building height of eight stories or 90 feet for a hotel and maximum of six stories or 90 feet for offices in Planning Area VII. The current ISP regulation is four stories or 75 feet maximum building height, unless approved as a Conditional Use Permit. PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT SPECIFIC PLAN 93-01 - GENERAL DYNAMICS March 23, 1994 Page 3 Recommendation: Staff supports the encourage hotel and multi-story office course · Commission Action: additional development height proposed to surrounding the golf Be Development Standards (Section 5.4) - Like the design guidelines, the proposed development standards match those in the current ISP, with a few notable exceptions, as highlighted here. Staff believes that the standards for development of the General Dynamics property should meet or exceed the current standards of the ISP. Topic No. 1 -Floor Area Ratio (page 5-29) - The Plan introduces a Floor Area Ratio (FAR) requirement which is the ratio of permitted floor area to available total land area. All planning areas would have a 0.35 FAR, except for Planning Area VI, which would allow up to a 0.70 FAR. The current ISP relies upon parking ratios and minimum landscape coverages to regulate building intensity. Recommendation: Staff supports the proposed FAR Standards which are in addition to the parking and landscape coverage requirements. However, a higher FAR is recommended for those Planning Areas that might include a hotel/conference center. Commission Action: Topic No. 2 - Minimum Landscape Coverage (page 5-36) - The'Plan proposes to reduce the landscape coverage from the current ISP Standards. Planning areas north of 6th Street are proposed at an 8 percent minimum landscape coverage, whereas the ISP currently requires l0 to ~2 percent. South of 6th street, the Plan proposes a ~0 percent minimum landscape coverage in contrast to the 15 percent currently required by the ISP. PLANNING CO~94ISSION STAFF REPORT SPECIFIC PLAN 93-01 - GENERAL DYNAMICS March 23, 1994 Page 4 Recommendation: Staff reco-~ends a 10 percent minimum landscape coverage north of 6th Street and a 15 percent minimum landscape coverage south of 6th Street for consistency with current standards. Commission Action: Topic No. 3 - Street Setback Requirements (page 5-35) - The 70 foot high ball-barrier netting (pole-mounted) is proposed to be exempt from the building setbecks. Therefore, these barrier fences could be located at the street right-of-way line along 6th Street (13 ~eet behind the curb line). The visual impact of these barrier fences along 6th Street would be significant. Reco,~endation: The barrier netting should be subject to the minimum parking setback along street frontages (e.g., 25 feet behind curb line on 6th Street). Commission Action: Topic No. 4 - Infrastructure Phasing (Section 6.4) - The first phase of development will be the golf course and related facilities (Planning Areas IA, IB, and III). Figures 6-1 and 6-2 indicate proposed infrastructure improvements (i.e., water, wastewater, reclaimed water, storm drains, electricity and telephone) and only includes a portion of the master planned storm drain system. The required street improvements with the development of the golf course will be addressed in the Development Agreement. However, the Specific Plan infers that public street improvements will be phased with each planning area. The level of infrastructure improvement and timing of those improvements are also likely to be addressed in the Development Agreement. PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT SPECIFIC PLAN 93-01 - GENERAL DYNAMICS March 23, 1994 Page 5 Reco~unendation: The infrastructure phasing is being negotiated as part of the Development Agreement and owner Participation Agreement. The Co~ission hearing on the Development Agreement is tentatively scheduled for May 1994. It is recommended that the Commission review and comment on the proposed infrastructure phasing. Conm~ission Action: C. Regulatory Procedures - (Section 6.0) - Topic No. 1 - Master Plans - At the last workshop, the Planning Co~nission reached a general consensus on the tiered master plan process. A simplified master plan would be required for subdivisions. This would indicate building locations, land use, access, and circulation. A detailed master plan would be required concurrent with the first development application. The detailed master plan would include more definitive site plans and comprehensive design guidelines. Both levels of master plans would be subject to Planning Co~ission approval. Once a detailed master plan is approved, individual buildings would be subject to City Planner approval. Reco~nendation: Since the last workshop and to address both the Co--,ission's concerns with the level of detail in a master plan for development and the applicant's interest in streamlining the process, staff suggests that the following language be inserted into the Specific Plan (Section 6). This would eliminate the tiered master plan process and require only one master plan prior to any subdivision or specific project proposal, whichever comes first. "The master plan shall indicate conceptual building locations, general land uses, overall circulation, points of ingress and egress to both public and private streets, parking lot layouts, conceptual grading and drainage, areas to be used for landscaping and plazas, and pedestrian circulation. Areas intended for co-~on use, such as shared access, reciprocal parking, or pedestrian plazas, shall also be identified. Design guidelines, including text and graphics, shall be included to indicate architectural concepts of form, bulk, height, orientation, and landscape concepts."

Attention Brad Bullet, City Planner The purpose of this letter is to confirm our support for the proposed action to rew)ke the conditional use pe/-iits, 78-03 - Sam's Place and 91-02 - Sam's Place. The Planning Commission is to be commended for taking this matter to its rational conclusion. The operation of this type of business adjacent to a residential area just doesn't match what the city says that it would like Rancho Cucamonga to be as a community. Over the years the uncontrolled noise and disturbances caused by the patron activity associated with this business has been very annoying. Those of us thai: have to get up early in the morning to start our commute to work every would like to be able to get a good night's sleep. This means starting early and being able to sleep through the nigh without the disturbances that are constantly going on in the parking lot. As home owners we would like to be able to enjoy the privacy and quiet that one ordinarily expects to have when they buy a home. Most evenings this not possible because of the activities goning on in the parking lot during the hours of operation of Sam's Place. Rancho Cucamonga is advertised as a "family values" type city and it is a good place to live. Although several ideas haven put fourth to mange the noise, and commotion in the parking lot, none have been implemented for any length of time. Most have not bccn implemented at all An apparent, if not obvious defiance of the cities attempts to integrate this business into the neighborhood. We have made significant investments in our homes and we would like to be able to enjoy the full benflits of those investments. Also, we do not wish to suffer a loss of resale value because of the activities of this business. Lets;' keep residential areas residential, and keep business areas for businesses. Thank you once again for dealing with this very sensitive matter. Sincerely Joe~ & June Fabis 6611 Topaz Alta Loma, Ca 91701 DATE: TO: FROM: BY: SUBJECT: CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA STAFF REPORT March 23, 1994 Chairman and Members of the Planning Commission Brad Bullet, City Planner Nancy Fong, AICP, Senior Planner CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 78-03 - SAM'S PLACE - A consideration to revoke the Conditional Use Permit for the operation of a bar in conjunction with a restaurant in the Neighborhood Comercial District, located at the northwest corner of 19th and Carnelian Streets - APN: 201-811-56 through 60. ENTERTAINMENT PERMIT 91-02 - SAM'S PLACE - A consideration to revoke an Entertainment Permit for a bar and restaurant in the Neighborhood Co~nercial District, located at the northwest corner of 19th and Carnelian Streets - APN: 201-81~-56 through 60. BACKGROUND: This revocation hearing is the result of the applicant's failure to comply with the conditions of approval for the above-described permits. Specifically, he failed to post the required permanent no parking signs as well as install physical barriers at the northwest parking area closest to the residences to prohibit his patrons from parking in this area. He also continued to display illegal signs and conduct entertainment outside the approved list of permitted entertainment uses. The Development Code (Section 17.04) and Entertainment Ordinance No. 290 allows the Planning Comission to revoke the Conditional Use Permit and Entertainment Permit if the permits are found to be conducted and operated in a manner not consistent with the conditions of approval or the permitted activity. ANALYSIS: This section of the report will examine the evidence to determine whether the applicant is operating his business in a manner consistent with the permitted activity and the conditions of approval and whether there is sufficient evidence to revoke the two permits. Section A will address the conditional Use Permit while Section B will address the Entertainment Permit. A. Conditional Use Permit 78-03: Code Compliance Issues: As early as June of 1993, the applicant illegally expanded the entertainment use to include live bands and disc jockeys with karaoke, added an arcade, and displayed illegal signs. Despite repeated contacts, the violations continued. In response to the City's citation process, the applicant submitted an application to modify the Entertainment Permit for legalizing the added entertainment and a new Conditional Use Permit application for adding the arcade with six amusement devices. At the hearings, the Comission received written and oral testimony from adjacent ITEMB & C PLANNING CO~4ISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 78-03 & EP 91-02 - SAM'S pLACE March 23, 1994 Page 2 residents who objected to the public nuisance such as loud music from Sam's Place and loud noise from the loitering activities in the parking area. The Commission determined that expanding the entertainment use would worsen the public nuisance problems and subsequently denied the modification to the Entertainment Permit, but approved the Conditional Use Permit for the arcade. At the appeal hearing of January 5, 1994, the City Council upheld the Commission's decision to deny the added entertainment uses with the exception of karaoke. Upon City Council action, staff gave notice to the applicant, his attorney, and the legal property owner, that it is the applicant's responsibility to comply with all the conditions of approval in City Council Resolutions No. 94-004 and 91-381 (Exhibits "F" and "G") and Planning Commission Resolution No. 82-98 (Exhibit "I"). Compliance inspections were conducted on January 24 and February 14, ~994. To date, the applicant has failed to comply with the following conditions of approval: installing permanent no parking signs and the placement of physical barriers at the northwest parking area to prohibit Sam's Place patrons from parking in this area. Outlined in Exhibit "B" is a detailed history and chronology of the Conditional Use Permit. Planning Commission Consideration: According to the Development Code, after investigating the evidence and upon conclusion of the hearing, the Commission must decide on. one of the following options: Find that the Conditional Use Permit is being conducted in an appropriate manner and that no action to modify or revoke is necessary; or Find that the Conditional Use Permit is not being conducted in an appropriate manner and that modifications to conditions are necessary; or Find that the Conditional Use Permit is not being conducted in an appropriate manner and that modifications are not available to mitigate the impacts and therefore revoke the permit. Based upon the above analysis, staff concluded that the business is not being operated in a manner consistent with the conditions of approval and these conditions are necessary mitigations to prevent any detrimental impact to the residential area. Therefore, staff recommends that the Commission find that the Conditional Use Permit is not being conducted in an appropriate manner and revoke the permit. If the Conditional Use Permit is revoked, staff will inform the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control of the revoked permit for the bar. Sam's Place could continue to operate as a restaurant with the incidental serving of beer and wine which is permitted by right. PLANNING CO~dISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 78-03 & EP 91-02 - SAM'S PLACE March 23, 1994 Page 3 B. Entertainment Permit No. 91-02: Violations of the Entertainment Permit: At the appeal hearing of January 5, 1994, the City Council upheld the Planning Comission's decision in denying the modification to the Entertainment Permit for adding live bands and disc jockeys. As shown in the January 12, 1994, letter (Exhibit "C"), the applicant was notified that the approved entertainment is that of a duet and karaoke was added but without the use of disc jockeys. Staff has determined, through site inspections and illegal signs retrieved by Code Enforcement staff, that the applicant is in violation of his permit, in that he continues to have disc jockeys for entertainment. Planning Co~nission Consideration: According to Entertainment Ordinance No. 290, the Commission may revoke an Entertainment Permit if it is determined that the applicant: Made any false, misleading, or fraudulent statements in their application; or be Violated any provision of Entertainment Ordinance No. 209 or any other regulation or condition relating to his permitted activity; or Is convicted of a felony, or any crime involving moral turpitude; or Violated any regulations or conditions adopted by the Planning Comission or City Council relating to the permittee's business or permit; or e. Conducted business in a manner contrary to the peace, health, safety, and general welfare of the public; or f. Demonstrated that he is unfit to be trusted with the privileges of such permit. Based upon the fact that staff has observed the use of disc jockeys and has retrieved illegal signs advertising the use of disc jockeys, staff finds that there is sufficient evidence to indicate the applicant is in violation of the Entertainment Ordinance by offering entertainment beyond what is specifically permitted. In addition, the applicant has violated the Sign Ordinance by displaying illegal signs. Violation of the conditions of approval adopted by Planning Commission Resolution No. 82-98 and City Council Resolutions No. 94-004 and 91-381 is grounds for revocation based on the findings noted above. Therefore, staff reco~ends that the Entertainment Permit be revoked. PLANNING CO~4ISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 78-03 & EP 91-02 - SAM'S PLACE March 23, 1994 Page 4 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission conduct the public hearing and revoke Conditional Use Permit 78-03 and Entertainment Permit 91-02 through the adoption of the attached Resolutions.

Duc to consistent complaints of loud music and noise, fights and loitering activities, the Commission modified the Conditional Use Permit (CUP) by adding mitigations to alleviate these problems. Some of the mitigations added were limiting the hours of operation to 2 a.m., requiring structural changes to attenuate noise, installing speed bumps in the parking area, blocking access to the northwest parking area, etc. 1983 In 1983, the Commission reviewed the CUP again duc to complaints and modified the permit by requiring the implementation of a dinner menu, additional noise attenuation measures, and restricting the hours of operation to 11 p.m. for closing. 1985 In 1985, the Commission further modified the CUP by eliminating live entertainment. At the September 6, 1985 appeal hearing, the City Council upheld the Commission's decision to keep the operating hours of 11 p.m. and prohibiting live entertainment. 1988-1990 In April of 1988, Boar's Head closed due to fire damage. The business was re- opened as Strattons under different ownership. No complaints were received during the period that Strattons was opened. 1990 In March of 1990, the applicant, Sam and Luanne Pellegrino, took over the business of Strattons and renamed it Sam's Place. Subsequently, the applicant requested to extend the hours of operation to 2 a.m. At the August 22 and continued to September 12, 1990 hearings, the Commission approved the extension of hours from 11 p.m. to 12 midnight for Sunday through Thursday and from 11 p.m. to 2 a.m. for Friday and Saturday, after long deliberations on the issue of Compatibility of use. The approval was for a test period of six months subject to their review for extension. The decision of the Commission was timely appealed by two members of the City Council. At the November 7, 1990 hearing, the Council deliberated on the same compatibility issue and continued the hearing to the December 5th meeting due to a deadlocked 2 to 2 tie vote. At the December 5 and continued to December 19, 1990 hearings (at the request of the applicant), the Council concluded the hearing and determined that the extension of hours of operation would not provide compatibility to the adjacent residents. The Council overturned the Commission's decision and upheld the appeal. 1991 As early as May of 1991, City staff observed that the applicant has illegally extended the hours of operation to 1 or 2 a.m. on a regular basis and provided live entertainment from 9 p.m. to I a.m. without the proper permit. In response to City's notices of violations, the applicant submitted applications to modify CUP 78-03 for the extension of hours of operation and an Entertainment Permit (EP 91-02) for providing live entertainment. At the July 24, August 14 and continued to September 11, 1991 hearings, the Commission, after long deliberations on the compatibility of use issue, denied the requests and revoked the CUP for the bar. At the November 20 and continued to December 4 , 1991 appeal hearings, the Council overruled the Commission's decision, upheld the appeal and approved the extension of hours of operation from 11 p.m. to 2 a.m. from Monday through Saturday and approved Entertainment Permit 91-02 to allow live entertainment consisting of a duet. 1992 Bctwccn January and April of 1992, a total of 4 complaints from the adjaccnt residents and one complaint from a business owner in the City were received. The complaints were that of loud music from Sam's Place and loud noise from the loitering activities in the parking area. City staff contacted the applicant to remind him of complying with and adhering to all the conditions of approval as contained in City Council Resolution Nos. 91-381 and 91-382 and Planning Commission Resolution No. 82-98. There was no follow up action from staff when complaints subsided. 1993 As early as June of 1993, the applicant violated the CUP and £P by expanding the entertainment use to include live bands, disc jockeys with karaoke, displaying illegal signs and adding an arcade of 6 amusement devices. Despite repeated contacts, the violations continued. In response to the City's citation process, the applicant submitted an application to modify the Entertainment Permit for legalizing the added entertainment uses and a new Conditional Use Permit (CUP 93-47) application for the added arcade. At the November 10 and continued to November 23, 1993 hearings, the Commission received written and oral testimony from adjacent residents who objected to the public nuisance such as loud music and loud nois~ from the loitering activities in the parking area.
