Based upon substantial evidence presented to this Council during the above-referenced public hearing on November 20, 1991, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Council hereby specifically finds as follows: (a) Subarea 6 of the application applies to approximately 20.34 acres of land bordered on the north by the Southern Pacific Railway, on the east by the Ontario (I-15) Freeway, on the south by existing Office/Profes- sional designated land, and on the west by existing Low Medium Residential designated land as shown on Exhibit "Al," and is presently underdeveloped with two single family residences. Said properties are currently designated as Medium Residential (8-14 dwelling units per acre); and Resolution No. 91-214 Page 2 (b) The property to the north of the subject site is designated Low Medium Residential and is vacant. The property to the west is designated freeway and is developed with the Ontario (I-15) Freeway. The property to the east is designated Low Medium Residential and is vacant. The property to the south is designated Office/Professional and is vacant. (c) This amendment does not conflict with the Tmnd Use Policies of the General Plan and of the Etiwanda Specific Plan and will provide for development, within the district, in a manner consistent with the General Plan and with related development, but land use ~tibilities may result on the east portion of Subarea 6 because this area is adjacent to significant trans- portation facilities; and (d) This amendment does promote the goals and objectives of the Land Use Element; and (e) ~nis amendment would not be materially injurious or detri- mental to the adjacent properties and would not have a significant impact on the environment nor on the surrounding properties, but land use incompatibili- ties may result for the east portion of Subarea 6. 3.
