Said properties are currently designated as M~d~__ium Residential (8-14 dwelling units per acre); and (b) The property to the northwest of the subject site is designated freeway and is the Ontario (I-15) Freeway. The property to the east is designated Low Medium Residential and is underdeveloped with single family residences facing Miller Avenue and on the opposite side of East Avenue it is designated Office (OFC) in the City of Fontana's West End Specific Plan. The property to the south on the opposite side of Miller Avenue is designated Med~_ium Rmsidential and is ~acant.
