Brent Le Count„ Associate Planner, presented the staff report. Dave Aris , Principal, ".I.B, Realty Advisors, stated his concern regarding the timing of required improvements, his client's desire to install these improvements over a five year time frame, and their wish for a property lien rather than a surety bond, as a bond can be difficult to obtain. Brad Buller, City Planner, reported he had been told discussions had been held between the applicant and the City Engineer regarding Engineering conditions and that a resolution would be presented to him today. Mr. Arils reported that the applicant has some concerns regarding the timing of the improvements of the approaches, sidewalk, street trees, the required 35 foot width of the Hellman ,Avenue entry and it's proximity to a fire hydrant: Mr. Buller asked for clarification regarding the Hellman Avenue entry. Mr.Arils explained that with an adjustment of the plans, the entry will bypass the fire hydrant, but a drainage channel from an adjacent tenant will then be affected. Mr. John Covorchin, President, boor Components, stated the drainage channel will not need to be changed if the fire hydrant can be relocated. Mr. Buller suggested the applicant address each issue singly and with the help of technical staff, he would then make a decision regarding the CUP. Mr. Robert Briggs, General Manager, Door Components, began by addressing the addition of a 14- foot high by 14-foot wide loading door at ground level on the east elevation. Mr. Ariss pointed out that approval has already been recommended for that, Mr. Buller concurred. r. Govorchin stated they were agreeable to the requested 15 gallons trees to mitigate the site line. He stated there is a problems with the 24 month period time frame in which improvements are expected to be completed Mr. Buller asked how long it will take to complete the tenant improvements and relocate the business: Mr. Briggs stated the move will take place between Christmas and New 'Year's Day. Mr. Ariss stated because of the cast of the move and additional equipment required, the applicant is requesting additional time to put the improvements into place. Mr. Covorchin mentioned their need for time to pay for the equipment, typically four to five years. e further questioned the strong time constraints because the existing conditions have been in place for 30 plus years already. Mr'. Buller` asked Cart James to provide an update on Engineering Standard Conditions One through Five and their position regarding those conditions in terms of time, [dad James, Senior Civil Engineer, addressed the removal of the existing drive approach and agreed to remove the term "sidewalk" and replace with "landscaping," while retaining the existing deflector wall. He continued with items number four, again deleting the terra "sidewalk," He pointed out existing strut lights are not up to standards and therefore, the requirement will remain, Mr. James continued with item number five, and agreed to remove "Revise existing Street Improvement Mans as required by the City Engineer," and replace with."Install sidewalk along Arrow Route frontage." He summarized the revised conditions and stated'the City Engineer is no longer requiring sidewalks along Hellman Avenue, but is requiring them along Arrow Route, which can be done through a construction permit. Mr, ,lames continued with Street Improvements, deleting the section 'including street trees, street lights, and intersection safety lights on future signal poles, and traffic signal plans shall be preparers by a registered Civil Engineer," to read, "Street improvement plans shall be submitted to and approved by the City Engineer." Mr. Govorchin asked if the remainder of the condition regarding security is still in effect. Mr. James stated the remainder of the condition is still required, but once the permit is issued, the improvements need not be installed'prior to occupancy; however, Engineering will not sign off the final' building permits until all improvements are complete: Mr. Ariss asked if Mr. Jaynes was referring to street or tenant improvements. City Planner Minutes 2 November 1 , 1996 Mr. James stated tenant improvements, He explained Engineering's standard policy regarding no final release of a building permit until all the public improvements are complete; therefore the condition does not restrict or direct the timing issue. Mr. Arias explained to the applicant that they will not receive an approved CUP or final sign-off until the off-site improvements are complete. r. James felt the Culp" could be approved today if the applicant provides an agreement for completion and security for the off-site improvements; Engineering could then sign-off on the building permit and continue discussing the timing of these improvements, He reiterated that Engineering will not sign-off on the final building permits until all improvements are complete, but the building permits can be issued based upon the security and improvement agreement. Mr. James concluded by saying that the CUP can be revoked if the applicant does not complete the subject improvements within the agreed upon time frame; Mr. Govorchin suggested a five year time frame to complete all necessary improvements. Mr. Buller asked if Mr. Govorchin felt a wider driveway will benefit his business by providing easier ingress and egress. Mr. Govorchin agreed to the benefit of a voider driveway, but feels it is not crucial in getting the business up and running. He questioned the urgency in making these off site improvements. r. Buller reported he had been informed by the City Engineering Traffic Division that if the building is to be reoccupied„ the public safety issue of ingress and egress needs to be addressed, He stated he is ready to take action on the subject CUP today, but is not comfortable in negotiating a schedule for the completion of improvements. Mr, Buller pointed out that the condition of approval has been left open in terms of time because the City is willing to work with the applicant, He Mated his need for the City Engineer to provide specific time frames: Mr. Govorchin asked about the time limits with which he has to work. Mr. Buller stated the City Engineer has not provided that information. Mr. Arias disagreed and stated, that per City policy, the permits have to be obtained and the off- sites have to be signed off before signing;off the completed lease-hold for tenant improvements. Mr. Buller pointed out that this is not at the point of occupancy. r, Ariss addressed Mr. Govorchin and reviewed what had been agreed upon in terms of COUP approval today, a time schedule for future improvements and security to be used to insure completion; in the interim, the lease-hold improvement permits can be drawn, but the final inspection sign-off will not occur until these are done or until the timing of the improvements has been agreed upon. He informed Mr. t ovorchin that City staff is willing to work out a timetable regarding the health and safety issues; the widening of the driveway, street lights and sidewalks. Chan James added that the securities will have to be agreed upon prior to the issuance of the building permit. Mr. Govorchin asked if a lien on the property would be_agreeable for security. r, James stated the option has not been allowed for the past two years.. r. Govorchin stated a 24 month time frame for all improvements was not long enough, City Planner Minutes 3 November t , 199 r, Buller explained that the CHIP will only be invalid if np1hin is done in 24 months. Kathy Thompson, 9216 Arrow Route, stated she live across the street from the subject property and her only concern is whether or not the building will be used on a 24 hour per day basis. r. Briggs assured her that it would not, stating there is a second shift which works until midnight, but consists of only six people who provide maintenance, stock refilling, and welding: r. Govorchin asked if route or highway is the proper address of the subject property. r. Buller directed staff to contact the Fire Department to verify the address. Lyn Eisenhower; CB Commercial teal Estate Group, Inc., asked when and where and how discussion would take dace regarding the Standard Conditions of Approval. r. Buller explained that the Standard Conditions of Approval are adopted with the approval of the GIMP; and because some of the conditions may be subject to interpretation, he has the authority to make those interpretations; but if a condition were to be dropped completely, another public hearing would be necessary: s Eisenhower asked if a schematic would be sufficient to satisfy the requirement for a detailed landscape and irrigation plan: r. Buller explained a plan is only required for the installation of new landscaping and irrigation. s Eisenhower asked whether or not it is incumbent upon the applicant to respond to each item with an explanation of it's interpretation, r, Buller stated that if there is an item that requires discussion, his role is to make the determination of compliance. r. covorchin asked for an interpretation regarding roof appurtenances.

He asked if that is a standard condition or if it is a response to previous problems, Dan James, Senior Civil Engineer, responded that it is;a standard condition, Mr. Buller then asked if Fire Prevention/New Construction Unit Condition No. 7 had been completed for the proposed number of church members, or for the current capacity of 96, Fred Diaz, architect, stated that he had spoken with Karen Mosely of the Fire Prevention/New Construction Unit. He reported that she had indicated that after the Planning Commission process was complete the plan will be submitted for review to the Fire Department and the Building Department. He stated that the occupancy issue will be addressed at that time. Mr. Buller then concluded that the architect has not determined if the requested occupancy is even feasible. He cautioned both the architect and applicant that retrofitting an industrial building to accommodate a particular level of assembly can be an extremely burdensome responsibility. He stated that he would not want to approve something that is not achievable. He further stated that the concept of shared parking between tenants is a concern in terms of potential policing problems, Mr. Buller then recommended the item be continued for two weeks during which time the architect work with the Building & Safety Division and the Fire Prevention/New Construction Unit to determine feasible occupancy based on square footage available for assembly. He then asked the Planning Division staff to prepare an oral update addressing the shared parking issue. Mr. Gutierrez questioned the "No Parking Anytime" condition, Mr. James suggested they discuss the issue on a one-to-one basis. Mr. Buller closed the public hearing and continued the item to the next City Planner meeting of September 10, 1996. City Planner Minutes 4 August 27, 1996 U.

Jim Orate, applicant, pointed out that Exhibit"C" represented the church as using all of the bottom floor when, in fact, they share that first floor with Chino Malley Water Basin District, utilizing only one-half of the available square footage. He also mentioned that on alternate Friday evenings a junior high group would utilize two classrooms from 7:99 to 10:00 p,m, He then asked the specifications regarding the crosswalk requirement. Mr. Warren suggested something visible and generally accepted in a traffic situation. He offered to ask theEngineering/Traffic Division for their input. Mr. Orate pointed out that a crosswalk had not been identified as a condition during a previous request and even though he didn't understand the difference in this usage, the church would provide one as suggested„ pending any opposition of the property owner: Mr. Buller asked staff if the property owner had been notified of the public hearing. Mr. Warren stated that the property owner is on the mailing list. r. Buller suggested adding "Final treatment to be approved by the City Planner"to the resolution because it is his intent that the crosswalk only be identifiable, not"flashy/neon highly visible'. He suggested that it might be possible to achieve this with signage instead of painting the right-of-way. He recommended to staff to crass the words "highly visible" when referring to the crosswalk, He further stated that the alternate Friday meetings of the junior high group would not violate any existing conditions. Mr Buller closed the public hearing and adopted the resolution approving Modification to Conditional Use Permit 92- 1. E.

Miki Bratt, Associate Planner, presented the staff report. Brad Buller, City Planner, opened the public hearing, Bill Clayton, Senior Vice President of the plumber One Golf Company, stated that the company he represents is the agent and management company for the developer, the F atellas Company.

He then addressed an illegal sign and stated that it is on its way down, momentarily, Mr. Clayton continued by addressing the issue of the temporary trailer and agreed to provide a ramp for handicapped access, paint it, and do whatever is necessary to tie it in to the existing buildings. He added that he would prefer not to build the specified decking, because of the east involved. He then mentioned an improvement plan for the slope area of the property and stated that they will be moving on it quite quickly. He then asked that Planning Division Item No. 7 be deferred: City Planner Minutes 5 August 27, 1996 Ms, Bratt pointed out that there is no time limit on the item. r. Clayton agreed to remove dead trees and irrigate the front of the berm. He than addressed the Building & Safety Division Condition No, 3 by reporting that a Knox box is attached to the front entrance pate. He then asked Steve Loerzel„ an.employee of the Rancho Valley Golf Center, if he had discussed this issue with the Fire Department. Mr. Loerzel responded that he had been told by the Fire Prevention/New Construction Unit that the requirement would be satisfied by placing his key in the existing Knox boat. Mr, Clayton requested clarification regarding the reference to plans being submitted prior to "construction," in that he felt them is no construction involved, merely the placement of a premanufactured trailer on property already approved for a permanent building. Mr. Buller responded by informing Mr. Clayton that the various building codes represent the state laws as it relates to any kind of building, He stated that trailers are exempt from certain conditions because they come preapproved from the manufacturer. He noted that any modifications to the trailer void those exemptions. He reported that whatever is ;placed on the property has to meet code. He stated that he was somewhat reluctant to approve the Conditional Use Permit prior to the illegal sign being taken down. He then asked, for the record, when it is coming down. Mr. Clayton responded by saying that it will be down just as soon as Katellas, the developer„ grants authorization to remove it, He stated that he was unaware of a time element involved in the removal of the sign. He then agreed to call Katellas and address the issue. Mr. Buller restated that the sign is in clear violation of the sign ordinance of the City of Rancho Cucamonga. He then asked if the aforementioned deck is a pert of the proposal for this trailer, or if reference were being made only to the handicapped accessible ramp Mr. Loe►zel stated that a handicapped accessible ramp was a Fire Prevention/New Construction Unit requirement that he agrees to, but because of financial considerations, he would like to avoid the extra expense of a deck: Mr Buller summarized by stating that there is no requirement for a deck in the conditions of approval to delete, a handicapped accessible ramp however, is required. He then cautioned staff to place time limits on conditions and specified the landscaping issue, hoping for total completion within six months. Mr, Clayton agreed to put Katellas on notice. Mr. ;Buller closed the public hearing and adopted the resolution approving Conditional Use Permit g - . F.

He explained that there will be costly, extensive, renovation of the building and they wanted to "clean up"the parking area, but they weren't sure if they could restripe and Murry coat the entire area. He commented that you can't just slurry coat the area; it needs to be patched and repaved in spots. He explained that the drive-thru area would be patched and re-slurried, but he did not know how much of the rear area would be slurried because of the cost of renovating the building. He stated that they would like to work with the City on that aspect. He mentioned, in reference to Planning Condition No. 9, that the trash receptacle was already enclosed with an overhead door. His last reference was to the requirement for soils reports and grading plans. He stated that they are not doing any grading and wondered why this was required.

Brent LeCount, Associate Planner, presented the staff report. r. Buller, City Planner, opened the public hearing and asked the applicant for comments. Mr. Ray Johnson, L. A Cellular, commented that he had a question on condition no. 9, which references shrubs in the southwest corner of the site; he asked if that should be the southeast corner instead, Mr. LeCount stated the location was correct and the reference was made regarding the unpaved dirt area about 2-feet from the western property line. He also said that staff recommends some landscaping and/or low shrubbery, Mr, Johnson stated that the property owner had expressed concern that the landscaping at the entrance not block the lines of site for traffic. r. Buller asked Engineering staff if this issue had been reviewed by Engineering. r. Dan James, Sr. Civil Engineer, stated it had not been reviewed yet, but this is a standard condition on all projects.

Cellular, asked if they should submit a landscape plan prior to issuance of building permits. Mr. Buller responded affirmatively. Mr. Buller then asked staff if the monopole would remain a grey color even if the building colors change. Mr. LeCount stated that was staffs intention because the grey blends in with the surroundings and appears somewhat invisible. Mr. Buller clarified that the color of the monopole would not need to change even if the building were repainted later. He then asked the applicant approximately how many monopoles they expect to install in this area. Mr. Johnson stated that was hard to tell because it depends on the increased demand for cellular service. He stated they have two more sites in process now locally, but they had no plans for additional sites in Rancho in the next year or two. He stated that the industry is moving toward digital cellular which allows three conversations for every frequency where now only one conversation per frequency is available. He also commented that will allow them to triple their capacity but, when the Route 30 Freeway goes through, they may need to add more facilities. Mr. Buller stated it is the City's goal to underground all utilities, and consistent with that goal, the City would want to see fewer monopoles rather than more and/or larger equipment. Mr. Johnson stated that his, company is very sensitive to that issue and they try to camouflage as much as possible.

Mr. Hayes clarified that the site could i e used by another pipe manufacturer, not in addition to, but only in lieu of, the proposed use, r. Coleman asked if pipe manufacturing was a permitted use at the site. Mr. Mayes stated it would be only on an interim basis. Mr. Carlos Bea, Sr. Vice President of A PAC, stated his company wanted to ensure that they would be allowed to use the facility for both soil remediation and pipe manufacturing without having to return for another approval. r. Coleman stated that this application applies to the soil remediation only;the pipe manufacturing would be a continuation of an existing operation and would not require another Conditional Use Permit for that existing use. x r. Hayes stated that the building has never received a formal occupancy approval from Planning because of the outstanding conditions relating to landscaping and additional items. r. dim Ford, AMPAC plant Manager, stated that occupancy approval was stalled was because the installed equipment was not UL labledr but that equipment has since been removed. r. Hayes showed Mr. Coleman the plans and explained the operations process. r. Coleman asked for clarification regarding the storage of the soil and whether it was decontaminated prior to storage. Mr. Ford stated it was decontaminated fiat and stored inside the buildings Mr. Coleman opened the public hearing.' Mr. Bea, stated he and his brother awned AMPAC and they bought the land in 19 from a company that manufactured pre-stressed beams.. He stated their business was a continuation of the same non-conforming use; but when they warned to pet into the dry-cast business, they applied for CUB' 9-1 , which subsequently was approved. He commented that in 1991-92 development bottomed-out and there was no market for their product, so they adopted a resolution to liquidate the company in May 1992. He stated they have tried to sell the business without success since that time. He said his brother died in 1993, leaving high the sole proprietor of the business. He went on to say that in 1994 his company had a lawsuit against the City of Rancho Cucamonga to retrieve 92,000 in taxes. He stated an agreement was reached where he dropped his lawsuit in exchange for release from the outstanding conditions of CUP 9-14. Mr. Bea went on to say that this project is an attempt to create an interim use to help defray taxes on the property. Mr. Ford stated that the intention is to gain the use of only a portion of the property at this time. He showed Mr. Coleman the landscaping plan and explained the phasing of the plan over the next three years. He stated they were planning to use five acres at this time and asked that the full conditions not apply because those conditions cover the entire property. Mr. Ford then proceeded through the conditions of approval of the project asking for the following exceptions: Planning lvisionConditions y Y Exemption from this condition requiring a 9 ft. chainlink fence along west property line because of the grade differential,between their property and So. Cal. Edison's property. 12 - Exemption from this condition regarding dust control and gaseous emissions because South Coast Air Quality has already given them a permit and there are no additional requirements; the soil is slurry and totally emersed in water already„ Bnoineerin iyision 2 -Exemption from providing full frontage improvements across Arrow because the project would not generate enough income to cower the improvements and because they would have to be removed once the undergrounding has to be done. He.stated that Edison has tried to return their deposit because they said the undergrounding could not be done because of a right of way problem. CITY PLANNER MINUTES - 2 - S_ PTEMBER'29, 199 #3 - Exemption from providing a non-refundable deposit for the cost of operating street lights because they are already paying $18,000 per year for that, Mr. Ford and Mr, Coleman had a brief discussion on the Standard Conditions that were attached to the staff report. Mr, Coleman explained the how the Planning conditions applied to this project and referred the applicant to Building and Safety and the Fire District for further explanation of their standard requirements. Mr. Coleman asked for additional public testimony. There was no additional testimony and Mr. Coleman closed the public hearing, Mr. Coleman stated that, based upon the fact that the soil is not being stored outside, either before or after treatment, and that it is shipped in and out by trucks, the proposed landscaping improvements and the phasing of those was acceptable. Mr. Dan James, Sr, Civil Engineer, explained that he had reviewed the project with the understanding that DR 89-14 was still in effect and the applicant would be required to fulfill those requirements. He stated that if that was not the case, he had not had time to review any new documentation regarding the lawsuit settlement agreement, Mr. Coleman asked for a five minute recess to allow Mr. James time to review the documentation. The meeting reconvened in five minutes and Mr. James said he had reviewed the project under the Development Code and the Conditional Use Permit application previously. He stated that the proposed conditions of approval were not in conflict with the settlement agreement. He commented that there are still concerns with traffic on Arrow Route, He stated he was still holding to the fact that this project should be consistent with what has been required of other projects and recommended that frontage improvements still be completed with this application, Mr, Bea asked for clarification of"frontage improvements", Mr. James responded that they would be extension of any needed pavement, street lights, street trees, drive approach, and underground utilities for the half of the street that belong to their project, Mr. Coleman asked if the condition was worded in such a way that the applicant would not actually have to complete the undergrounding now. Mr. James responded negatively and commented that this situation would be similar to an off-site improvement at a subdivision where the applicant cannot comply with a condition because of the involvement of an outside agency, the City then must work with what physically can be done and can accept an in-lieu agreement instead of the undergrounding. He asked the applicant if he had someone who could draw up the existing and the proposed street improvements so he could show them to the City Engineer, He asked if the project could be continued until the next meeting after those drawings were reviewed, Mr. Ford replied he could get someone to do the drawings, Mr. Coleman asked the applicant if he wished to continue the item to the next meeting on October 10. CITY PLANNER MINUTES - 3 - SEPTEMBER 26, 1995 Mr. Bea stated that they were willing to continue the item to the October 10, 1996 City Planner meeting.

Mr. Buller opened the public hearing,, Mr. Douglas Goddard, applicant, 1015 Deercrest, Devore, CA, stated he had a few questions and comments to make. He mentioned first that the landlord had given him a written commitment to take care pf the landscaping after they move in. He mentioned many of the requirements are beneficial to both the City and their business, but they would present a financial burden for the applicant. He stated that about 25 percent of the business was wholesale catalog and 75 percent was retail (with 85 percent of the retail being catalog orders). Mr. Buller asked the Engineering Department representative to expand on their conditions. Mr, Dan James, Sr. Civil Engineer, stated that the walkway and lighting conditions are standard conditions for non-construction Conditional Use Permits (CUP), Mr. James stated that the conditions needed to completed within six months after approval of the CUP if no building permit is issued; if a building permit is issued, the conditions would be controlled through approval to occupy.

Mr. Buller indicated that this is a cede enforcement matter and may eventually be Grounds for revoking their retail use. Mr. Buller stated he hoped this would not be a,problem with this new business.

Goddard felt the conditions would be beneficial, but financially„ he stated it would be extremely difficult for him to handle at this time.

Fancy Fong, Senior Planner, presented the staff report. Brad Buller opened the public hearing and asked if there were any questions regarding the report or Conditions of Approval on the resolution. Mr. Chris Atkinson, CB Commercial, City of Industry, asked for the time frame on Engineering Condition No. 2 , the installation of sidewalk for the project. Dan James, Senior Civil Engineer, asked if there were building permits along with the Conditional Use Permit. Mr. Buller responded affirmatively. Mr. James stated that the sidewalk would have to be completed prior to issuance of occupancy permits, the improvement drawing revisions also would need to be complete and bonding in place prior to issuance of building permits. Mr. Atkinson stated his agreement with those conditions, Mr. Buller asked if the four tanks, closest to the street, could be designed with a larger diameter/capacity while reducing the tank height more in line with the building height. Mr, John Bossi, Engineer for Fisher Mills Inc., 3235 16th Ave, , S.W., Seattle, WA, stated that the capacity of the tanks corresponds with the capacity of the trucks hauling the grain. Mr. Chris Atkinson stated that the reduction in the height of the tanks had been discussed with Fisher Mills, but the Santa Fe Rail Line is requiring installation of a spur track to service the building which would limit the diameter that could be used for the tanks. Mr. Buller stated he was concerned mainly with the tanks in front of the building that are not impacted by the rail spur, He stated it did seem there would be some flexibility and wondered if there were other issues preventing a height reduction. Mr. Bossi, stated they could look at doing that. Mr, Buller stated that if it was possible to lower the tanks, the applicant would not need to come back before the City Planner for approval. Mr, Bossi asked if it would help if they could move the tanks back too. Mr. Buller responded of and stated he didn't want to inhibit truck maneuverability, but rather, screen the area as much as possible. He asked the applicant if the railroad had asked them to remove the portion of the tracks that went across the street. Mr. Bossi stated that instead of removing it, they were asked to place a screen wall to the South of the tracks. He stated he did not think the railroad would object to removal, but he needed to check it out. Mr. Buller stated he would like to see the track removed and the area landscaped if possible. He then asked the applicant to explain how the flour milling system works, CITY PLANNER MINUTES - 2 - JULY 25, 1995 r. Bossi explained the process, He stated that the pipe transporting the grain did not necessarily have to be exactly as he had it on the drawing, but it would be similar, Mr. Buller asked what the size the pipe was. Mr. Rossi stated it was a 6 to 8 inch pipe, r. Buller asked if the length of the pipe might be a problem, given the severe winds encountered in this area at times. r. Bossi stated there would probably be some type of structure supports on each side of the pipe. r. Steve Harrington, Fisher Mills, operation manager, stated that the Modesto facility's pipe is supported with mother pipe and cradle under the first pipe. r. Buller stated that his concerns were to make the building more attractive and to ensure safety during windstorms; to achieve these, he asked the applicant to investigate lowering the four tanks, closest to the street„ and lowering the pipe that transports the flour into the building, He suggested they maintain the light bluish/grey color and asked if either of the towers were high enough to need a light. Ms. Fongstated that she had asked them to check with w�. the F regarding lights n t on the towers, g g g Mr. Harrington stated, he thought they were going to allow for the lights anyway. Mr. Buller closed the public hearing, he approved Conditional Use Permit 95.19 and requested the applicant work with staff on the details regarding landscaping, screen gall, and tower and pipe heights. C. 1 1 ICJ RM T; g 1 r C ht H M I - A request to operate a playschool program for approximately 150 preschool children within the existing classrooms of hillside Community Church, in the"fiery Low Residential District (less than dwelling units per acre), located at 5354 haven Avenue -APN 107 - 71- t. Brad Buller, City Planner, announced that he was a member of hillside Community Church and would step out of the room during the public hearing for this Item. Nancy Fong, Senior Planner, presented the staff report, i Dan Coleman, Principal Manner, asked the Community Services staff for an explanation of how this request came about, Kathy Sorensen, Recreation Superintendent, stated that Community Services was experiencing difficulty obtaining space for one of their large preschool programs because the three main City- owned facilities, where classes normally are held, are either undergoing renovation or are duo for renovation in the next several months {the Lions Center is due for renovation in the next t CITY PLANNER MINUTES 3 - JULY 25, 1995 I !I, months, the old County Library building has been turned over to the City, but won't be available for 12 months; and the Neighborhood Center has been undergoing Block Grant renovations for the last few months). She stated that the school facilities that have been used in the past were only supplemental to the City-owned facilities and they were surplus space to the schools. She stated that the City had been able to use portable buildings, formerly used for kindergarten at Coyote Canyon Elementary, because Ruth Musser Middle School took over the elementary school building and they did not use the portables. She further stated that the school district and the City had a joint use agreement, which since has reverted back to Lewis Homes, and now those portables are to be sold to Fontana School District. She said the City does not own any land to put portables on, nor does it have funds to construct any portables, leaving the City with the option of using commercial property for classes. She stated that there were discussions with Lewis Homes, but their land uses were not compatible with the vacancies they had available for the City's program. She went on to say that left the City with two options. to use church facilities or cancel the program (which has a large waiting list). She said that letters were sent out to local churches and Hillside Church responded. She commented that when she inspected the facility, it seemed to be the least likely to be impacted, of the five to six churches they checked, as far as not interfering with other commercial uses, offsite parking and portables, and good access. Dan Coleman, Principal Planner, stated that he understood there were about 500 children enrolled in the program citywide, with an extensive waiting list, Ms. Sorensen responded affirmatively, Mr, Coleman asked if the church site would house only the 150 children that were previously at the Terra Vista School site, Ms. Sorensen replied it would be for those children and the children previously at the Neighborhood Center, Mr. Coleman asked if the church facility would only be needed for approximately 18 months. Ms. Sorensen responded affirmatively. Mr. Coleman asked what the sign-in policy was for the children when they arrived. Nettie Nielsen, Recreation Supervisor, responded that the parent or guardian signs in the child, Mr. Coleman asked if the classes were from 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., with one class taking place after the previous class let out. Ms. Neilsen stated that was correct. Mr. Coleman asked if there were ever 150 children present at one time during the five class sessions. Ms. Nielsen responded that the schedule varied, but generally there could be three or four classes at one time with 12 to 20 students each. CITY PLANNER MINUTES - 4 - JULY 25, 1995 Mr. Coleman asked if car pooling was a common practice among the parents or caretakers who drove the children. Ms. Nielsen stated that does happen after parents get to know each other, but it does have to be verified with the instructor that this is permissible with the child's parents, Mr. Coleman opened the public hearing. Doug Warner, 5291 Ozark Mountain, stated his house was immediately north of the church and asked if staff visited any of the residents in the area when they visited the church site. Ms. Sorensen replied negatively, Mr. Warner asked why the residents had not been contacted. Ms. Sorensen stated that this was the first time the City had to go to out to this type of facility and, because of the age of the children and the fact that they are inside most of the time, staff did not feel this would impact the neighborhood. Mr. Warner stated he felt that, after staff found a church that was responsive, a neighborhood meeting should have been held. Mr. Coleman stated the City solicits public comment by sending notices to the surrounding properties, within 300 feet of the site, and also by holding a public hearing on the proposed project. Mr. Warner stated that they have experienced numerous problems since the church was built. He stated he had bought a house in that area for privacy, large lot sizes, and the quiet, traffic-free environment. He commented that since the church was built, traffic had increased considerably, mainly on weekends, but also during the week. He stated that during the late afternoon and evening hours, teenagers are speeding in the neighborhood, coming into the parking lot of the church and drinking beer, playing loud music, and leaving trash in the lot. He stated he did not want the additional traffic this program would bring; even if the traffic were to come in below where he lives. He asked where the traffic was supposed to enter the church for the program. Mr. Coleman stated parents would be using the lot along Haven, Mr. Warner stated his, certainty that drivers would be exiting from the north side as it is an open parking lot from Haven through Vista Grove, He commented he had small children riding bikes each day, and he reiterated, he did not want the extra traffic. He stated that the program is supposed to last 18 months, but there is no guarantee that it won't be extended beyond that because of additional budget constraints and/or overflow needs. He asked if the children participated in outside activity, Ms. Sorensen responded affirmatively. CITY PLANNER MINUTES - 5 - JULY 25, 1995 Mr. Warner stated that concerned him for a number of reasons. He asked what other churches were checked out for the program, s. Sorensen responded that Water of Life, New Hope, Northkirk, and several others. r. Warner asked if any of those churches were receptive and/or acceptable. s. Sorensen responded that some churches were receptive, but were not acceptable because of their location or the size of their available rooms. Mr. Warner asked what church would be a second choice, or if there was one, Ms. Sorensen responded that there was not a second choice; staff had any extensive contact with Hillside Church, they were responsive, and it was a good facility for the program, She stated that staff had negotiated with Water of Life Church and Lewis Homes for approximately four months without success because of compatibility issues in the commercial business area. She stated that Water of Life had been the first choice and with it not being a compatible use, Hillside Church was the next choice. Mr. Warner stated he had spoken to several people in the neighborhood and no one felt comfortable about the situation. He stated his wife had written a letter and was having it signed by the concerned residents and asked who they should give the letter to and what the deadline was. Mr. Coleman stated it should be submitted at this public hearing today to be considered part of the evidentiary record. Mr. "warner stated that his public hearing notice indicated that interested residents could contact City staff Monday through Thursday', :gg am, to .gu p.m., and that was what they were going by. Mr. Coleman stated that if it was submitted after the hearing it would be considered after the fact. He asked if he could make a copy of the letter now. Mr. Varner replied he did not have it with him as it was still being circulated for signatures. He asked if he did not present the letter now, if it would be considered. r. Coleman stated that if a decision was reached,today, that decision would be appealable to the Planning Commission, y r. Warner asked of that meeting was in the;evening. He stated that was another concern because it was hard for neighbors to tape off work for a daytime meeting. Mr. Coleman responded affirmatively, r. Warner stated he would bring in the letter when it was ready. He stated that he understood the City's concerns for the program and that options were limited for the classes, but he stated he was CITY PLANNER MINUTES - - JULY 25, 1995 concerned for his neighborhood and that he would like to see the program canceled until the City facilities are ready for use. Ms. Pebeca Alanis, 5270 Ozark Mountain Place, stated that she was also concerned with increased traffic and the teenagers hanging around in the parking lot. She reiterated that they had paid quite a bit of money for their houses and did not expect the kind of problems that have been associated with the church. She commented that the afternoon meeting made it difficult for people to attend: Mr. Coleman responded that was one reason notices were sent out, to let people know they could also write or call with questions or concerns. s. Barbara 1_angon, 1 516 Silver'Spur, stated that she did not understand from the notice that this would be a temporary situation but she was also concerned about the increased traffic; r.

D. Johnson, 655 Brea Canyon, Walnut, CA, representing ,J, F.

He specifically asked about the certification of the coach. r. Buller explained that'a staff*repot identities specific issues and may or may not include all the information in the resolution, the resolution is an approval and/or denial document that is used as a consensus of all the City Departments accepting the project. He asked Mr. Johnson if he wished to go over the conditions. [fan Coleman, Principal Planner, stated the conditions in a resolution are included for the applicant's information and are requirements of the local Building and/or Fire Code ordinances. He replied that the coach certification issue could be handled one of two ways: it can be treated as a residence„ with specific requirements (such as fire sprinklers) or it can be a commercial coach, which is treated as an office. He commented that, based on the letter from the applicant, the Building and Safety Division followed the commercial coach requirements; He commented that staff had originally based their comments on information from the applicant for a residential coach. Mr. Johnson stated that they could put a sprinkler system in, but he said they could not make the mobile horse into a Commercial coach because it would be too cost prohibitive. He stated Mr, Coleman had advised him to submit the application as an office without informing hire how involved that would be: " Mr. Coleman stated the issue was confusing because Planning's reference to a caretaker's residence is a specific definition of a land use under Planning's code, which is different than the issues pertaining to the building codes. He Mated the Planning staff felt that submitting the project as an office would accommodate the applicant and make the requirements less strenuous. He commented:that after review and discussion with the applicant„ that it could be submitted either way, depending on their wishes. Mr. Johnson stated that they had been burglarized six times in the last three weeks and they had lost thousands of dollars. He also added that the Rancho Police have told him they cannot protect the property, Mr. Boller stated that he cannot make specific changes to the wilding and Safety conditions and that would have to be done by the Building Official, He gave the applicant the options that were available: continue the item for two weeks; or modify the condition so the applicant would be able to comply with all Building and Safety code. requirements. Mr. Buller asked what other security measures had been used to secure the area and how they felt one person would be able to secure the entire area, as it is very large. He stated it would not solve the problem completely, but they had installed security lights and they could install'sensors or cameras also. Mr. Buller clarified this was their first step to solving the problem, but not necessarily the only measure they could employ. Mr. Johnson responded affirmatively: CITE' PLANNER MINUTES - MARCH 22, 1995 r. Butler stated that changes he made today still would not affect the fact that they would still have to comply with the Building and Safety code requirements, but he stated that changing the wording in the resolution, to work with the Building Official on the final determination of the classification would a least give the applicant an option. He asked if there were any questions regarding Engineering conditions pertaining to the right of way dedication. r. Johnson stated they did not have a problem with that condition, he commented that mainly they questioned why there had to be wheelchair ramps and why the rock driveway needed to be pawed. Mr. Buller stated that many of the required building and safety codes are state codes, not City codes. r. Buller closed the public hearing and approved Conditional Use Permit 9 -05 with the amendment that the Building and Safety Conditions of Approval on page -14 of the Resolution would be deleted and the reference pertaining to compliance with all building and safety issues shall fall under Condition No.'3 of the Standard Conditions of Approval. !aQN ITIO AL USE PER MIT 94-31 -WATER -A request to keep and breed six Bouvier Des Flanders dogs on a 0,5 acre parcel in the Very Low Residential District (less than two dwelling units per acre) located at 104 ,almond Street R APN: 1074-121-25, ; ,Steve Hayes, Associate Planner, presented the staff report, Brad Buller, City Planner, asked what kind of correspondence had been received on the item.

He said that two of the dogs are currently inside at night and two are outside, He stated that they have neighbors on each side of their property, but their back yard is next to opera forest land, and they vivant the dogs outside for protection: Mr. Buller asked if there were any questions with the conditions on the resolutions, CITE' PLANNER MINUTE r MARCH 22, 1995 i Ms. Alice Waters stated she had no questions, but reiterated that they were working to eliminate the barking problem and they wanted the dogs for protection. She explained the plans and location of the six covered kennels they are working on for the dogs. She stated that they had initially kept the dogs in portable kennels in the garage until they learned that they must maintain two stalls as garage space if you have a three-car garage; the dogs were then moved to the back yard and barking again became a problem for the neighbors. She stated she felt they had been trying to comply with City codes. Mr. Buller then asked for comments from the public. Mr. Al DeMarci, 10495 Hidden Farm Road, stated he lives south of the Waters and that there is definitely a barking problem. He was concerned about how the Waters disposed of animal carcasses and feces on their property. He felt that they could have as many as 18 dogs on their property at times because of the prolific nature of the dogs. Ms. Jill DeMarci, 10495 Hidden Farm Road, stated she was opposed to the Waters keeping six dogs because there is a sanitation and a noise problem already. She felt there was a potential for too many dogs to be kept for too long because they are a specialty breed that appeals to a specific clientele. She also felt this could become a commercial use in a residential area and cause increased traffic problems, She stated she walked the neighborhood with a petition and the neighbors, for the most part, did not support this project. She stated that she was in favor of keeping the code limit of three dogs per household. Ms, Bruce Ann Hahn, 5087 Granada Court, president of the homeowner's association, expressed concerns regarding the potential to breed numerous dogs, the potential to contract parvo again, and the existing barking problems. She asked for an explanation about the usage of the garage for housing and grooming purposes and what back yard landscaping would be required. Mr, Doug Kreinheder,4946 Clover Place, stated he was sympathetic in the areas of dog ownership and protection of one's property, but he stated that his bedroom window faces the Water's yard and that he cannot sleep with his windows open because of the noise all dogs in the neighborhood create. He was concerned that this could turn into a commercial business. He asked if neighbors were interviewed prior to processing a project. Mr. Buller explained that the process includes fact gathering, background research, and analysis which may include contact with the neighbors. Mr. Buller invited the Waters to respond to questions from the previous speakers. Mr. Waters stated that disposal of the puppies is handled only by the vet. He stated he has a service who cleans the animal litter from the yard once a week and they clean the yard themselves another time or two in between.. He explained they plan to have only one litter per year from now on because the dogs will be housed in separate quarters when the females are in heat. He stated that they had received no complaints from the neighbors prior to this hearing. He stated that they had sold all the puppies within 30 days of the first City Code complaint and they were not planning on running a commercial business from their home. He stated they are not aggressive dogs and they are continuing to work on the barking situation, CITY PLANNER MINUTES -4 - MARCH 22, 1995 Ms. Waters reiterated much of what Mr. Waters stated but, interjected that breeding the is a hobby, not a business, so traffic and corresponding issues will not cause problems in the neighborhood, She further commented they do have support from sortie of their neighbors. She explained'that she intends to comply with City Codes because she doesn't want to lose her dogs. r. Buller responded to the questions previously asked. He stated that City code requires each dwelling unit to have two covered garage spaces accessible for parking and no approval given at this meeting could change that requirement. He explained that businesses run from home are allowed in the City, but that the main issue here is whether more dogs (than code allows) should be permitted in this case, Mr. Buller stated he stopped by unexpectedly to visit the site and found the Waters very hospitable, but also found eight adult dogs on the property and a possible sanitation problem. He commented that progress had been made since the first citation in August 1994, but there were areas of concern that have not been remedied. He stated he was also concerned about the barbing drags and the potential for more code enforcement problems to arise, He felt that additional traffic would not be an issue. He went on to say that he had hoped to see more diligence on the part of the applicant in complying with the three dog limit'. Mr. Buller closed the public hearing and denied the project without prejudice, but continued the item to the March 28 City Manner meeting to give the planner time to prepare a resolution of denial. He explained the appeal process to the applicant and told them the 1 g-day appeal period would begin March 28, 199 ,>after the resolution of denial was approved: EUBLIC COMMENTS There were no public comments, ADJOURNMENT The City Planner Public blearing adjourned at 3:40 p,m, iF Sincerely, Shelley A. letrelli Secretary CITY PLANNER MINUTES - o lw'lARCH 22, 1995 i CITY OF RANCHOCU'CA Ohl A CITY PLANNER MINUTES Regular Meeting March 7, 1995 Brad Butler, City Planner, called the a ular Meeting of the City of Rancho Cucamonga City Planner to order at 2.10 .m.

(Continued from January 10, 1995. Beverly Luttrell presented a summary of the issues from the last meeting. She reviewed the fact that there was a lack of 10 parking spaces and the need for a reciprocal parkin agreement and a potential conflict between pedestrians; cars, and trucks on the site and surrounding streets. ;She commented that the applicant submitted several items to her including a letter stating he had conducted a survey of true traffic on the site on two different days, the first day (Thursday), between 8:00 am to 4:00 pm, three trucks entered the site; on the second day(Saturday), between 8:00 am to 4:30 pm, no trucks were seen entering the site. She stated the applicant also submitted a letter of permission from the property owner on 6th Street stating he would allow the 10 additional spaces needed for the ice rink on his property; however, Ms. Luttrell commented that the property was quite a distance from the rink. Ms. Luttrell stated the third item submitted by the applicant was a revised site plan indicating a potential for 4 additional parking spaces, but not the entire 10 spaces required. Ms. Luttrell gave an analysis of the information submitted by the applicant: 1 potential traffic and pedestrian problems still exist, off-site location is too far away, staff felt only two of the spaces would be viable because the other two spaces would require landscaping be removed. She also commented that she had spoken to the Orange County Traffic Specialist who worked on the traffic study for the rink, mentioned at the last meeting, in Aliso Viejo. She Mated that rink opened two months ago and they have experienced no problems to date; however, that particular industrial park is not completely occupied: Mr. Dunaev reiterated the experience and education he and his partners Mr. Semenov, have that is applicable to this project. He commented the reason they wanted to locate in Rancho is because it is a growing community and they thought an ice skating rink would e good for the City. He stated they would deb whatever the City required for their project. r. Jim Moffett, Moffett and Associates, stated they planned to illuminate and cover an entrance on the north side of the building, as well as, provide security and signage indicating it as the drop-off area. r. Buller>asked if that entrance would change the interior floor plan. r. Moffet replied that it would not change the interior floor plane He proceeded to show r. Buller the lobby on the plans and explained how it is to be set up. r. Buller;invited the public to give their comments on the project. r. Jim Westling, O'Donnell Property Services, agent for the property owner, commented that the proposed project has merit, but he did net feel;this was a good area for it. He stated that there was potential for too much truck traffic in the area and, in previous years, there had been as many as 200 trucks per day using Bridgeport Street. He stated further that the building owners are unwilling to provide any additional parking for this project. He commented that he wanted to go;on record opposing this project in this location because of the potential safety hazards between pedestrians and truck traffic. r. Buller asked if there were any GC & Rs or regulations regarding the shared access parking on the prope r. Westling stated there are maintenance and repair obligations, but he was not sure if there were CC & Rs. r. Roland Childs, owner of the two buildings across Bridgeport Street, stated he and his partner, Mr. Allan Gardner, visited an ice rink that had 150 parking spaces (which was approximately the same size as the proposed rink) in Culver City on a school holiday and there were many children outside, as well as insufficient and illegal parking on that day. He stated that he anticipated that their parking lot would become the overflow parking for the ice rink because it was the closest. He stated they were also opposed because he felt it was an improper use in that particular industrial park. He commented that many trucks n be as long as 70 feet, potentially reducing the visibility of the driver, and this could be dangerous situation with children around. CITY PLANNER INUTES - - JANUARY 24, 1 ggo r. Allan Gardner, partner of Mr. Childs, asked if having short-term/pickup parking spaces reduced the amount of available regular panting Mr. Buller stated that the applicant had not produced plans on how they planned to implement the short-term parking. He stated the applicant had indicated they would use the perpendicular spaces by that entrance so that it did not affect the other parking. Mr. Childs stated that one of their buildings is currently empty and that the buildings change tenants at a rate of about _b years, which should be considered since no one knows who could move in at a later date. Mr. Dunaev reiterated that most of their business would take place in the evening with very little parking rewired during the day. He also stated that the ice rink in Anaheim has two rinks and 30,000 square feet with 66 parking spaces in an industrial area, it has been open for three years without-any problems. He stated that they would reduce the size of their rink if they couldn't get the additional parking spaces needed. r. Buller closed the public hearing. Mr. Buller explained the 10-day appeal period and went on to discuss his reasoning and decision on the project. He stated that when the Industrial Specific Area Specific Plan'was first developed, it was designed to be very flexible to different types of uses. He said the City has always embraced recreation facilities and that an ice rink would definitely be a welcome activity. He stated he had not heard from the applicant how he would monitor the door or doors to keep the children contained within the building until their parents arrived, this could be difficult for one security guard. He stated past experience with reducing the size of a recreation facilityr did not necessarily reduce the need for a certain number of parking spaces; instead, it created more congestion once participants were inside the facility. Mr. Buller commented that he had been to the site for a couple of inspections and he felt there was potential for the ice rink users to impact the parking on the adjoining properties and that would create problems without a reciprocal parking agreement. He stated the property also has the potential to be heavily used by trucks, perhaps even 24 hours a day, which concerned him as children would be present. Mr. Buller said that there were still unresolved issues and he denied Conditional Use Permit -38. He told the applicant that he hoped they would decide to stay in the City and find another property that would be more appropriate.

Brad Buller, City Planner, stated that he had lust received a letter from nearby property owners, Alan Gardner and his partner Roland Childs, and also a fax from Rosenfeld, Myer, and Suzeman law firm, regarding the proposed project. Mr. Buller gave the letter to the applicant to read. r. Buller opened the public hearing, r. Alex Dunaev, representing the applicant, stated that the letters were mainly regarding traffic and security once the rink is done. Mr. Dunaev explained that the most vehicles that would be there at one time would likely be around 40. He commented that there would be a security ward present also. He did not foresee any potential problems and felt that the rink would be good for the City. Mr, Buller asked Mr. Dunaev if he had previous experience running an ice rink. Mr, Dunaev stated that he did have experience in Europe, but not in the United States. Mr. Buller asked Mr. Dunaev how he was planning to monitor activity in and around the building to prevent loitering. Mr. Dunaev responded there would be additional lights in the parking lot and security cameras on each corner of the building in the parking lot. Mr. Jim Moffett, Moffett and Associates (architectural firm), stated that one of the reasons the applicant had come to his firm was because they had just completed a conversion of a 31,000 square foot building into an ice rink in Aliso Viejo, He stated the rink opened in October and was doing well. He stated this rink had two buildings on that site with similar circumstances to this project in that they shared driveways and parking also. He stated that the project has experienced no problems with children running around or parking problems. He did not expect problems here because the facility would only be open for public skating once a day and the rest of the time it is scheduled for skating instruction. He further stated there is truck traffic on surrounding streets, but not on the street where the rink would be located. He did feet this would be an appropriate setting for the rink. Mr. Buller asked who they did the rink for Aliso Viejo. Mr. Moffett responded that is was Glen Bushwin. Mr. Buller asked staff if they did a comparison with this rink for the staff report. Ms. Beverly Luttrell responded that she did not use that facility; she used Huntington Beach and Torrance. Mr. Buller stated that he had some concern with the safety of the children and/or loitering after they left the ice rink. He asked if they would wait for their parents to pick them up outside or inside. Mr. Dunaev responded the children would wait for their parents inside. Mr. Leonard Santoro, CB Commercial Real Estate, stated that he had extensive experience leasing or selling industrial property. He stated that one of the things that his clients like the best about properties in the City is that excellent specific plans are in place here and in Ontario. He commented that currently he was representing Mr. Gardner and Mr. Childs and his clients felt that this was an incompatible use because the current use is industrial. He stated that the building to the immediate south is a 24-hour distribution center that will create traffic and that does not mix with children. He suggested doing a traffic study for Newport, 7th, Pittsburgh, and Bridgeport Streets to check out the type of traffic that exists. CITY PLANNER MINUTES - 2 - JANUARY 10, 1995 . Joetta Younger, O'Donnell & Cochran Management Services, representing the two buildings in the area with the parking concerns, stated both tenants were very concerned about parking and security for their buildings because currently there is no public access. r. Butler asked if the applicant oared to respond. r. Dunaev Mated that he Mill did not feel there was a conflict because most of the ice rim"s traffic would be after 6:00 pm. Mr. Buller pointed out that one of the conditions proposed on the resolution of approval is that the applicant obtain a reciprocal perking agreement from the surrounding tenants. He stated he could approve the project with that condition, but then there would mover be a project if that condition couldn't be met. He stated that he could also continue the project to the next meeting to see if the applicant could acquire the support he needs from the surrounding tenants.' Mr. Buller asked the Sr. Civil Engineer if the "no paving" applies to the street parking also. i i Mr. Ilan James, Sr. Civil Engineer" replied that it would only apply to their frontage. Mr. Dunaev asked if they would need additional street lights. r. James replied that would also be required only across their frontage He Mated that additional lighting would be required to brim this site up to City standards. i r. huller asked if a traffic study was required for the two roller rinks on 6th Street in the industrial area. r. Dan Coleman Principal Planner, stated that it was required for the expansion, butno ! 9 not p g p , for the original application. r. Buller asked the applicant why they wanted to open at ag am. Mr. Dunaev replied that bath adults and older children came at this time to practice. Mr. Buller commented that, if the project were approved, he would require that there be a security guard on site whenever it was dark and the facility was open. He asked'the applicant if he wanted to continue the project until the next muting to see;if he could gain support from the surrounding tenants. r. Dunaev agreed to a continuan r.

David Cunningham, representative for the applicant, stated he was not sure he understood how the Assessment District applied to his project . Mr. Coleman stated Rancho Cucamonga has various maintenance districts and the property owners within these districts pay for the maintenance of the lighting and landscaping within that district. He also stated that the fee is based on acreage rather than frontage. Lyle McCullough, also representing the applicant, asked if expansion required another Conditional Use Permit. Mr. Buller stated that the Conditional Use Permit can be amended if a project is changed or expanded. He then asked the applicant if he planned to make any exterior changes to the building. Mr. McCollough stated the only exterior changes will be the doors. He stated there is one door on the north and one on the west side of the building. {Be showed Mr. Buller the location of the doors on a drawing. ) Mr. Buller asked that the design of the doors be consist with the rest of the center. Be asked if any other changes were anticipated. Mr. McCollough stated that later they may wish to add an overhang. Mr. Buller responded that could be accomplished with a Minor Development Review at the time of the change.

N - T - A request to keep a collection of 500 exotic birds at a residence in the Low-Medium district of the Etiwanda Specific Plan, located at 7491 Etiwanda Avenue, subject to Section 17.08.303 of the Rancho Cucamonga Development Code -APN: 1100-0 1-01 Alan Warren, Associate Planner, presented the staff report. Brad Buller, City Planner, asked the applicant if he had any comments or questions, Steve € uncan, applicant, questioned the restrictive wording in Condition No. of the Resolution. He stated he did not want to be restricted to only the birds specified in case he chooses to breed other'types of buds that do not have load crowning habits He then asked for clarification of Development Code Section 17.08.03E. r. 'Darren explained that was the section that identified the keeping of animals and he showed the section to Mr. Duncan. r. Duncan stated he did not have any more questions. r. Buller opened the public hearing: r. Buller asked under what terms birds were classified or identified other than the nowise level they create. r. Duncan Meted he couldn't give a specific answer to that question because characteristics and habits are different with specific breeds of birds. He stated that his birds are typically quiet unless he is feeding them, which he normally does mid-morning. s. Sharon Duncan, applicant, explained that they had done a noise level test when Mr. Duncan was feeding the birds, and a noise test of the area traffic from inside their house, and the noise level was approximately the same (70 decibels). r. Warren stated that he had not tested the noise level, but pointed out it could be a problem, at any given time;, based on their frequency or level: r. Buller asked about the applicants interest in birds and commented that 500 seemed like a large number to him. He also asked the Mr. Duncan to explain what;his goals were after moving to this props r. Duncan responded that he had been raising birds for about 20 years and as far as 500 being a large number, he felt that depended on your perspective. He stated that the noise impact depends a great deal upon how you set up their cages. He commented that it has been difficult to find a place to move because of the birds, and the fact that they like old houses, and is also why he was trying to take care of potential problems before he moves. r. Buller asked for questions from the public. Mike Robbins, representing the Temple across the street from the property, stated the Temple had concerns, including noise and cleaning up after the birds. He also commented that the previous property owners had peacocks that were quite noisy, messy t theyuse a asked as far as sanitation that and even broke windows �n he church. , ass covered trash receptacles. He commented that there �s also coy ote_p y problem in the area and they would'probably need fencing around the property. He stated that the applicant sounded as though he was aware and ready to address some of these issues already and r. Robbins felt they could work together satisfactorily to resolve any remaining issues. r, Duncan responded that his birds will not be out of their cages to bother anyone and that his wife makes sure that the noise and smell are kept under control. He commented that currently he has about one trash can full of droppings and debris per week, which is mostly Mood shavings and discarded fruit rinds. Ms, Duncan added that they would not be able to build the aviary structure they want for awhile, but they do plan to landscape around the existing cages in the meantime to inhibit distractions that could cause the birds to be noisy. CITY PLANNERMINUTES - 2 - November 22, 1994 r. Duncan stated they would come in with plans prior to building any new structure for the'birds to ensure that he is complying with City regulations. r. Buller stated he mould like to see those plans when they are ready to build. r. Duncan reiterated that the birds are his hobby, and he does sell bird products, but added that any birds he would sell would be delivered to the store and not picked up at the house. r. Buller stated that if he were to grant the Conditional Use Permit it would be because the raising of the birds is more of a hobby than a business, and the primary purpose of the property is residential; should that change, there is a potential to revoke the Conditional Use permit later. He asked if they were planning to landscape the property. r. Duncan stated he was, but the yard needs a great deal or work and cyan up now and it would be awhile before they can implement their full landscaping plans. r. Buller asked if the applicant was aware that the house is considered a potential local landmark and it could be landmarked later, r. Duncan asked ghat was involved in the landmark process. r. Buller explained that a landmark designation is a City action on the property and it involves a public hearing before the Historic Preservation Commission, this determines if the ;property meets the criteria for local, state, or national significance, and if it has not been altered significantly, it could be designated a landmark.
