Page 2 of 15
2. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Council during the
above-referenced public hearing on June 7, and continued to June 21, July 5,
and July 19, 2000, including, but not limited to, written and oral staff reports,
the minutes of the above referenced Planning Commission meeting, and the
contents of Planning Commission Resolution No. 00-31, and together with
public testimony, this Council hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. The application applies to property on both sides of East Avenue on
the north and south sides of an abandoned Southern Pacific Railroad
right-of-way with a street frontage of 1,240 feet on East Avenue and
lot depth of 600 to 1,300 feet and is presently vacant; and
b. The property to the north of the subject site is vacant and developed
with single-family homes, the property to the south consists of vacant
land and the 1-15 Freeway, the property to the east is vacant and the
1-15 Freeway, and the property to the west is vacant and developed
with single-family homes; and
c. The proposed home plans are the same as were recently approved
for Tract 15798 and exhibit a high level of design integrity; and
d. The General Plan and the Etiwanda Specific Plan designate a public
Community Trail off-site within the railroad easement to the south of
the Tract 15911 site; and
e. The property is one block away from Etiwanda High School and
approximately two blocks away from Etiwanda Intermediate School
and will generate additional traffic and school children that will use
East Avenue and Victoria Street; and
f. High sound walls are proposed which will reduce noise from the 1-15
Freeway for future residents; and
g. The excessive height of the sound walls will be mitigated by using
split faced and fluted block and a two-toned color scheme; and
h. The frontage improvements include construction of the East Avenue
Parkway wall consistent with the Etiwanda Specific Plan; and
I. Environmental Impacts related to drainage, traffic, and noise will be
mitigated to a level of less than significant.
3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Council during the
above-referenced public hearing on June 1 and continued to June 21, July 5,
and July 19, 2000, including, but not limited to, written and oral staff reports,

contents of Planning Commission Resolution No. 00-31, and together with
public testimony, this Council hereby specifically finds as follows with
reference to points raised by the appellant:
Resolution No. 00-103
Page 3 of 15
a. That it would be infeasible for the developer to provide a buffer zone
with berms and trees to control freeway noise because the extreme
width of such a buffer zone would preclude development of the site
consistent with Etiwanda Specific Plan permitted land uses; and
b. While high walls proposed within the development may cause large
shadow areas, these areas only impact homes within the project and
any impact is offset by the noise attenuation function of the walls; and
c. It is feasible to design and engineer walls high enough to effectively
mitigate freeway noise; and
d. The walls are designed with decorative masonry and include vine
pockets with provisions for vine planting to grow onto the outside of
the walls; and
e. The use of higher than normal walls has already been established as
precedence for freeway noise mitigation elsewhere in the community.
4. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Council during the
above-referenced public hearing on June 7, and continued to June 21, July 5,
and July 19, 2000, and upon the specific findings of fact set forth in
paragraphs 1, 2, and 3 above, this Council hereby specifically finds as
follows:
a. That the proposed project is consistent with the objectives of the
General Plan in that it includes high quality residential design
appropriate to the Etiwanda area and will minimize noise levels from
the 1-15 Freeway for residents within the tract;
b. That the proposed design is in accord with the objectives of the
Development Code and the Etiwanda Specific Plan and the purposes
of the district in which the site is located in that it is responsive to the
environmental resources of the site, promotes development and
compatible with surrounding uses, and minimizes the impact of high
sound walls on the surrounding area;
c. That the proposed design is in compliance with each of the applicable
provisions of the Development Code and the Etiwanda Specific Plan;
d. That the proposed design, together with the conditions applicable
thereto, will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare
or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity in
that it minimizes potential fire, seismic, and flood related hazards.
5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and
4 above, this Council hereby denies the appeal, upholds the action of the
Planning Commission, and approves the application subject to all conditions
of approval contained in Planning Commission Resolution No. 00-31,
attached hereto and the following additional conditions:
Resolution No. 00-103
Page 4 of 15
1. The developer shall work with City staff to explore options to the 21-
foot high sound wall which will have a lesser aesthetic impact,
including but not limited to, locating the wall within the Caltrans 1-15
Freeway right-of-way.
2. Building permits shall not be issued for the wall until the matter of the
wall location is resolved to the satisfaction of the City Council.
6. The City Clerk of the City of Rancho Cucamonga is hereby directed to: (a)

upon which wildlife depends. Further, based upon the substantial evidence contained in the
Mitigated Negative Declaration, the staff reports and exhibits, and the information provided to the

detention basin or a maintenance agreement with a refundable
deposit shall be executed to the satisfaction of the City
Engineer and the City Attorney guaranteeing private
maintenance of the facility, but providing the City with the right
