acres of land into five parcels in the General Industrial District (Subarea 11), located on the north
side of Mission Park Drive between Richmond Place and Buffalo Avenue -APN 0229-263-54
and 55
DEVELOPMENT REVIEW DRC2004-00079 -THE BATES COMPANY - A request to develop five
industrial buildings totaling 64,500 square feet on 4 acres of land in the General Industrial District
(Subarea 11), located on the north side of Mission Park Drive between Richmond Place and Buffalo
Avenue -APN 0229-263-54 and 55
Design Parameters The subtect site is located north of Mission Park Drroe between Richmond
Place and Buffalo Avenue The site is vacant and is surrounded by mdustnal warehouse
development to the north, east, and west To the south is vacant land The site has public
improvements of sidewalk and curb and gutter along the street frontages Evidence of reoccurring
discmg for weed abatement purposes is evident The site presently drams from the north to the
south There are no mature trees on the subtect site
u
The infill mdustnal development contains five single-story industrial bwldmgs (not warehouse), which
range in size from 7,000 square feet to 33,100 square feet The bwldmgs are rectangular shaped,
which is conducive for the intended use Access into the protect site will be off of Mission Park
Drive, Buffalo Avenue, and Richmond Place Additionally, the applicant has provided two outdoor
eating break areas at the two corner intersections of the protect
The bwldmgs have an adequate amount of 360-degree architectural elements The buildings have
rich detail, such as stone veneer, at the primary entry points, however, the remaining portions of the
building are lacking details The bwldmg will have recessed bronze reflective glazing and a multi
color paint scheme Over each primary entry way is a metal canopy
The map portion of the protect is for financing purposing
Staff Comments The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee
discussion
Major Issues The following broad design issues will be the focus of Committee discussion
regarding this protect
Architecture -The applicant has not called out the light shading on the buildings Staff
assumes that this represents sandblasted concrete If it does not then staff recommends that
it should All of the building entries with the vertical elements should be covered with stone
2 All screen walls between the gates of the bwldmg must be decorative to match the proposed -
architectural style of the protect
3 Call out the material of the decorative paving at all entryways into the protect site
Secondary Issues Once all of the mator issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the .
Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues
No exterior downspouts are to be visible on any of the buildings
DRC AGENDA
SUBTPM16815 AND DRC2004-00079 -THE BATES COMPANY
June 1, 2004
Page 4
Landscaping should surround the trash enclosures
Parapets are to be high enough so as to screen all roof-mounted equipment The warehouse
areas of bwlding do not appear to have sufficient parapet to screen any HVAC units
Transformers should be screed by decorative concrete tilt-up wall
Policv Issues The following items are a matter of Planning Commission policy and should be
Incorporated into the protect design without discussion
Paint roll-up doors to match the bwldmg elevations
Staff Recommendation Staff recommends redesign of the protect and return before the
Committee as a Consent Calendar item
Design Review Committee Action:
Members Present Fong, McPhail, Stewart
Staff Planner Doug Fenn
The applicant came prepared with revised elevations that depicted sandblasting instead of lust
painted tdt-up concrete
The Committee informed the applicant that they believed the locations of the two employees break
areas at the street corners of the protect are not appropriate because they are uninviting for the
public or the employee within the complex The Committee directed the applicant to center the
employee break areas midway along the front of Mission Park Avenue The Committee informed
the applicant that the buildings to the rear must have their own employee break areas, and to add
reveals and change the color scheme on the screen walls between the rear buildings and for the
screen walls to the rear of the protect The Committee directed the applicant to work with staff and
once the aforementioned items are addressed, then schedule the protect for City Planner approval

Comments•
a) As noted in the General Plan FEIR (Section 5 6), continued development will contribute to the
pollutant levels in the Rancho Cucamonga area, which already exceed Federal and State
standards The General Plan FEIR identified the citywide increase in emissions as a
significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations
was ultimately adopted by the City Council The proposed project is consistent with the
General Plan for which the FEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated
b) During the construction phases of development, on-site stationary sources, heavy-duty
construction vehicles, construction worker vehicles, and energy use will generate emissions
In addition, fugitive dust would also be generated during grading and construction activities
While most of the dust would settle on or near the project site, smaller particles would remain
in the atmosphere, increasing particle levels within the surrounding area Construction is an
on-going industry in the Rancho Cucamonga area Construction workers and equipment
work and operate at one development site until their tasks are complete They then transfer
to a different site where the process begins again Therefore, the emissions associated with
construction activities are not new to the Rancho Cucamonga area and they would not violate
an air quality standard or worsen the existing air quality in the region Nevertheless, fugitive
dust and equpment emissions are regwred to be assessed by the South Coast Air Quality
Management District (SCAQMD) on a project-specific basis Therefore, the following
mitigation measures shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels
1) All construction equipment shall be maintained in good operating condition so
as to reduce operational emissions. Contractor shall ensure that all construction
equipment is being properly serviced and mamtamed as per manufacturers'
specifications. Maintenance records shall be available at the construction site
for City verification.
2) Prior to the issuance of any grading permits, developer shall submit
construction plans to City denoting the proposed schedule and projected
equipment use. Construction contractors shall provide evidence that low
emission mobile construction equipment will be utilized, or that their use was
investigated and found to be infeasible for the project. Contractors shall also
conform to any construction measures imposed by the SCAt]MD as well as City
Planning Staff.
3) All paints and coatings shall meet or exceed performance standards noted in
SCAQMD Rule 1113 Paints and coatings shall be applied either by hand or high
volume, low-pressure spray
4) All asphalt shall meet or exceed performance standards noted in SCAQMD Rule
1108
5) All construction equipment shall comply with SCAQMD Rules 402 and 403
Additionally, contractors shall include the following provisions:

• Reestablish ground cover on the construction site through seeding and
watering
• Pave or apply gravel to any on-site haul roads.
• Phase grading to prevent the susceptibility of large areas to erosion over
extended periods of time -
• Schedule activities to minimize the amounts of exposed excavated soil
during and after the end of work periods
• Dispose of surplus excavated material in accordance with local ordinances
and use sound engineering practices.
• Sweep streets according to a schedule established by the City if silt is
carved over to adjacent public thoroughfares or occurs as a result of
hauling Timing may vary depending upon time of year of construction.
• Suspend grading operations during high winds (i e., wind speeds
exceeding 25 mph) in accordance with Rule 403 requirements.
• Maintain a minimum 24-inch freeboard ratio on soils haul trucks or cover
payloads using tarps or other suitable means
6) The site shall be treated with water or other soil stabilizing agent (approved by
SCAQMD and RWQCB) daily to reduce PM~p emissions, in accordance with
SCAQMD Rule 403
7) Chemical soil stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be applied to
all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to
reduce PM~p emissions
S) The construction contractor shall utilize electric or clean alternative fuel powered
equipment where feasible.
9) The construction contractor shall ensure that construction-grading plans include
a statement that work crews will shut off equipment when not in use.
After implementation of the preceding mitigation measures, short-term construction air
quality emissions would remain significant as noted in the General Plan FEIR (Section
5 6) Based upon on the URBEMIS7G model estimates in Table 5 6-4 of the General
Plan FEIR, Nox, ROG, and PM,g would exceed SCAQMD thresholds for significance,
therefore, would all be cumulatively significant if they cannot be mitigated on a project
basis to a level less-than-significant The General Plan FEIR identified the citywide
increase in emissions as a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a
Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council
In the long-term, development consistent with the General Plan would result in
significant operational vehicle emissions based upon on the URBEMIS7G model
estimates in Table 5 6-4 of the General Plan FEIR, therefore, would all be cumulatively
significant if they cannot be mitigated on a project basis to a level less-than-significant
The following mitigation measures shall be implemented
10) All industrial and commercial facilities shall post signs requiring that trucks shall
not be left idling for prolonged periods (i.e , in excess of 10 minutes)
11) All industrial and commercial facilities shall designate preferential parking for
vanpools.

12) All mdustnal and commercal site tenants with 50 or more employees shall be
required to post both bus and Metrolmk schedules m conspicuous areas.
13) All mdustnal and commercial site tenants with 50 or more employees shall be
regwred to configure their operating schedules around the Metrolmk schedule to
the extent reasonably feasible.
After implementation of the preceding mitigation measures, the General Plan FEIR
identfied the citywide increase m operational emissions as a s~gmficant unavoidable
adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately
adopted by the City Council
c) As noted in the General Plan FEIR (Section 5 6) continued development would contribute to
the pollutant levels in the Rancho Cucamonga area, which already exceed Federal and State
standards The General Plan FEIR identified the citywide increase in emissions as a
significant and adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was
ultimately adopted by the City Council The prolect proposed is consistent with the General
Plan for which the FEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated
d) Sensitive receptors are defined as populations that are more susceptible to the effects of
pollution than the population at large The SCAQMD identifies the following as sensitive
receptors long-term health care facilities, rehabilitation centers, convalescent centers,
retirement homes, residences, schools, playgrounds, child care centers, and athletic facilities
According to the SCAQMD, protects have the potential to create significant impacts if they
are located within 1/4-mile of sensitive receptors and would emit toxic air contaminants
identified in SCAQMD Rule 1401 The prolect site is located more than 1 mile from the
nearest sensitive receptor the West Valley Detention Center and Juvenile Detention Center
Light industrial business park use is not expected to generate toxic air contaminants The
proposed industrial buildings are to be constructed as speculative with no definitive users at
this time The potential for hazardous materials will be evaluated at the time of tenant
improvement plan check and business license Therefore, no adverse impacts are
anticipated
e) Typically, the uses proposed do not create obfectionable odors The proposed industrial
bwidings are to be constructed as speculative with no definitive users at this time The
potential for odors will be evaluated at the time of tenant improvement plan check and
business license No adverse impacts are anticipated

Comments.
a) The site is located within the Delhi Soils sensitive biological resource area of the Delhi Sands
Flower-Loving Fly according to General Plan Exhibit IV-3 The subfect site is located north of
Mission Park Drive between Richmond Place and Buffalo Avenue The site is vacant and is
surrounded by industrial warehouse development to the north, east and west To the south is
vacant land The site has public improvements of sidewalk, curb and gutter along the street
frontages Evidence of reoccurring discing for weed abatement purposes is evident The site
presently drains from the north to the south Ecological Sciences, Inc prepared a Habitat
Suitability Evaluation to reference if any of the federally-listed endangered Delhi Sands
flower-loving fly are present on the subfect site The study, which was concluded on
February 25, 2004, concluded that "the site does not likely contain habitat considered suitable
to support or sustain an extant DSF population " The survey also determined that the site did
have a very small amount of California buckwheat individuals along the abandoned vine rows
in the northwest corner of the site These native plant species are often considered potential
"indicators" of suitable DSF habitat although indicator plant species also 'occur on highly
disturbed/degraded properties that do not support potential DSF habitat Moreover, the
content in which these native plant species occur does not constitute a substantive native
Delhi plant community Therefore, no adverse impacts are anticipated
b) The subfect site is located north of Mission Park Drive between Richmond Place and Buffalo
Avenue The site is vacant and is surrounded by industrial warehouse development to the
north, east and west To the south is vacant land The site has public improvements of
sidewalk, curb, and gutter along the street frontages Evidence of reoccurring discing for
weed abatement purposes is evident The site presently drains from the north to the south
The protect site is located in an urban area with no natural communities No riparian habitat
exists on-site, meaning the protect will not have any impacts
c) No wetland habitat is present on-site As a result, protect implementation would have no
impact on these resources
d) The mafority of the surrounding area has been or is being developed, thereby disrupting any
wildlife corridors that may have existed Also see comments noted under a) above for
additional documentation No adverse impacts are anticipated

Comments•
a) The protect site has not been identified as a "Historic Resource" per the standards of Rancho
Cucamonga Municipal Code Section 2 24 (Historic Preservation) There will be no impact
b) There are no known archeological saes or resources recorded on the protect site, however,
the Rancho Cucamonga area is known to have been inhabited by Native Americans
according to the General Plan FEIR (Seaton 5 11) Construction activity, particularly grading,
soil excavation, and compaction, could adversely affect or eliminate existing and potential
archaeological resources The following mitigation measures shall be implemented
1) If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or during
grading, the developer will retain a qualified archaeologist to monitor
construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them
for study. With the assistance of the archaeologist, the City of Rancho
Cucamonga will.
• Enact interim measures to protect undesignated sites from demolition or
significant modification without an opportunity for the City to establish its
archaeological value
• Consider establishing provisions to require incorporation of archaeological
sites within new developments, using their special qualities as a theme or
focal point.
• Pursue educating the public about the archaeological heritage of the area
• Propose mitigation measures and recommend conditions of approval to
eliminate adverse protect effects on significant, important, and unique
prehistoric resources, following appropriate CEOA guidelines
• Prepare a technical resources management report, documenting the
inventory, evaluation, and proposed mitigation of resources within the
protect area Submit one copy of the completed report with original
illustrations, to the San Bernardino County Archaeological Information
Center for permanent archiving

c) The General Plan FEIR (Section 5 11) indicates that the Rancho Cucamonga area is on an
alluvial fan According to the San Bernardino County database, no paleontological sites or
resources have been recorded within the City of Rancho Cucamonga or the Sphere-of-
Influence, including the protect site, however, the area has a high sensitivity rating for
paleontological resources The older alluvium, which would have been deposited during the
wetter climate that prevailed 10,000-100,000 years ago during the Late Pleistocene epoch of
the Quaternary period, when the last "Ice Age" and the appearance of modern man occurred,
may contain significant vertebrate fossils The protect site is underlain by Quaternary
alluvium per General Plan Exhibit V-2, theretore, the following mitigation measures shall be
implemented
2) A qualified paleontologist shall conduct a preconstruction field survey of the
project site. The paleontologist shall submit a report of findings that will also
provide specific recommendations regarding further mitigation measures (i.e.,
paleontological monitoring) that may be appropriate. Where mitigation
monitoring is appropriate, the program must include, but not be limited to, the
following measures.
• Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow the rapid
removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to the site full-time
. during the interval of earth-disturbing activities
• Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded, divert
earth-disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has completed
_ salvage. If construction personnel make the discovery, the grading
contractor should immediately divert construction and notify the monitor
of the find.
• Submit summary report to City of Rancho Cucamonga. Transfer collected
specimens with a copy of the report to San Bernardino County Museum.
d) The proposed protect is in an area that has already been disturbed by development The
protect site has already been disrupted by construction of infrastructure (curb, gutter, and
streets), surrounding developments and annual discing for weed abatement No known
religious or sacred sites exist within the protect area No adverse impacts are anticipated

Comments
a) No known faults pass through the site and it is not in an Earthquake Fault Zone, nor is it in the
Rancho Cucamonga City Special Study Zone along the Red Hill Fault, according to the General
Plan Exhibit V-1, and Section 51 of the General Plan FEIR The Red Hill Fault passes
approximately 2 miles north of the site, and the Cucamonga Fault Zone lies approximately 4
miles north These faults are both capable of producing M„, 6 0-7 0 earthquakes Also, the San
Jacinto fault, capable of producing up to M„, 7 5 earthquakes, is approximately 9 miles
northeasterly of the site, and the San Andreas, capable of up to Mw 8 2 earthquakes, is
approximately 13 miles northeasterly of the site Each of these faults can produce strong
groundshaking Adhering to the Uniform Building Code will ensure that geologic impacts are
less-than-s ign rficant
b) The Rancho Cucamonga area is subtect to strong Santa Ana wind conditions during
September to April, which generates blowing sand and dust, and creates erosion problems
Construction activities may temporarily exacerbate the impacts of windblown sand, resulting
in temporary problems of dust control, however, development of this protect under the
General Plan would help to reduce windblown sand impacts in the area as pavement, roads,
buildings, and landscaping are established Soil types onsite consist of Delhi fine SAND,
according to General Plan Exhibit V-3, with the moderate to high potential for bare soil
blowing ii left unprotected Therefore, the following fugitive dust mitigation measures shall be
implemented to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels
1) The site shall be treated with water or other soil stabilizing agent (approved by
SCAQMD and RW~CB) daily to reduce PM,p emissions, in accordance with
SCAQMD Rule 403
2) Frontage public streets shall be swept according to a schedule established by
the City to reduce PM,p emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil
off-site. Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction.
3) Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph to
minimize PMig emissions from the site during such episodes.
4) Chemical soil-stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWoCB) shall be applied to
all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to
reduce PMig emissions

b) According to CVWD, 43 percent of the City's water is currently provided from groundwater in
the Cucamonga and Chino Basins CVWD has adopted a master plan that estimates
demand needs until the year 2030 The proposed protect will not deplete groundwater
supplies, nor will It interfere with recharge because it is not within an area designated as a
recharge basin or spreading ground according to General Plan Exhibit IV-2 The
development of the site will require the grading of the site and excavation, however, would

measure shall be implemented
1) Structures to retain precipitation and runoff on-site shall be integrated into the
design of the project where appropriate Measures that may be used to minimize
runoff and to enhance mfdtration include Dutch drams, precast concrete lattice
blocks and bricks, terraces, diversions, runoff spreaders, seepage pits, and
recharge basins
c) The protect will cause changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and
amount of surface water runoff due to the amount of new building and hardscape proposed
on a site, however, the protect will not alter the course of any stream or river All runoff will
be conveyed to existing storm drain facilities, which have been designed to handle the flows
The protect design includes landscaping of all non-hardscape areas to prevent erosion A
grading and drainage plan must be approved by the Building Official and City Engineer prior
to issuance of grading permits Therefore, the protect will not result in substantial erosion or
siltation on- or off-site The following mitigation measure shall be implemented
2) Prior to issuance of grading permits, the applicant shall prepare a SWPPP that
identifies BMPs to be implemented during the period- the site is under
construction. BMPs shall be identified on the grading plans for review and
approval by the City Engineer.
d) The protect will cause changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and
amount of surface water runoff due to the amount of new building and hardscape proposed

in flooding on- or off-site No impacts are anticipated
e) The protect will cause changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and
amount of surtace water runoff due to the amount of new building and hardscape proposed
on a site, however, all runoff will be conveyed to existing storm drain facilities, which have
been designed to handle the flows The protect will not result in substantial additional
sources of polluted runoff A grading and drainage plan must be approved by the Building
Official and City Engineer prior to issuance of grading permits Therefore, increase in runoff
from the site will not result in flooding on- or off-site No impacts are anticipated
Grading activities associated with the construction period could result in a temporary increase
in the amount of suspended solids in surface flows during a concurrent storm event, thus
resulting in surface water quality impacts The site is more than 1 acre, therefore, is required
to comply with National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) to minimize water
pollution A Water Quality Management Plan (Fuscoe Engineering, January 2004) was
prepared and identified Best Management Practices that well be used on-site
3) Prior to issuance of bwldmg permits, the applicant shall submit to the City

Comments•
a) The industrial uses associated with this type of protect normally do not induce groundborne
vibrations The City's Development Code requires that all uses in Subarea 8 be operated in a
manner so as to not generate noise level exceeding 75Ldn as measured at the lot line of the
source The protect site is within an area of traffic noise levels, from the I-15 Freeway,
exceeding Cfty standards according to General Plan Exhibit V-13 today and at even higher
levels at build-out in the year 2020 The City's standard is 65Ldn and 75Ldn for interior and
exterior noise levels in the general industrial area- According to General Plan Exhibit V-11,
conventional construction, with closed windows and fresh air supply systems or air
conddioning, wtll suffice without any special noise insulation regwrements The City's
Development Code requires that all industrial uses be conducted within an enclosed building,
hence, no adverse operational impact to nearby uses is expected The General Plan FEIR
(Section 5 7) indicates that during a construction phase, on-site stationary sources, heavy-
duty construction vehicles, and construction equipment, will generate noise exceeding City
standards The following measures are provided to mitigate the short-term noise impacts
1) Construction or grading shall not take place between the hours of 8 00 p m. and
6.30 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any time on Sunday or a
national holiday.
2) Construction or grading noise levels shall not exceed the standards specified in
Development Code Section 17 02.120-D, as measured at the property line The
developer shall hire a consultant to perform weekly noise level monitoring as
specified in Development Code Section 17 02.120. Monitoring at other times may
be required by the Planning Division. The said consultant shall report their
findings to the Planning Division within 24 hours, however, if noise levels exceed
the above standards, then the consultant shall immediately notify the Planning
Division If noise levels exceed the above standards, then construction activities
shall be reduced in intensity to a level of compliance with above noise standards
or halted
b) The industrial uses associated with this type of protect normally do not induce groundborne
vibrations The City's Development Code requires that all uses in Subarea 11 be operated in
a manner so as not to generate vibration discernible without instruments by the average
persons beyond the lot upon which the source is located As such, no impacts are
anticipated
c) The primary source of ambient noise levels in Rancho Cucamonga is traffic The proposed
activities will not significantly increase traffic, hence, are not anticipated to increase the
ambient noise levels within the vicinity of the protect
d) See a)response above
e) The site is not located within an airport land use plan and is not within 2 5 miles of a public
airport Located approximately 2 5 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport and is offset north of
the flight path No impact is anticipated
i) The nearest private airstrip, Cable Airport, is located approximately 6 miles to the west of the
City's westerly limits No impact is anticipated

c) Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating the () () () (/)
construction of replacement housing elsewhere
Comments•
a) The protect is located in a predominantly developed area and will not induce population
growth Construction activities at the site will be short-term and will not attract new
employees to the area If commercial or industrial include this sentence Once constructed,
the proposed protect will have a limited number of employees, hence, will not create a
demand for additional housing as a matority of the employees will likely be hired from within
the City or surrounding communities No impacts are anticipated
b) The protect site contains no existing housing units No adverse impact expected
c) The protect site is vacant land No impacts are anticipated
13. PUBLIC SERVICES. Would the protect result in substantial
adverse physical impacts associated with the provision of new
or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or
physically altered govemmental facilities, the construction of
which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to
maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other
I performance ob/ectives for any of the public services
j a) Fire protections O O O (/)
b) Police protections () () () (/)
c) Schools () () () (/)
d) Parks () () () (/)
e) Other public facdities~ O O O (/)
Comments•
a) The site will be served by a fire station located approximately 1 5 miles from the protect site
The protect will not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing
facilities or cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct
new tacilities Standard Conditions of Approval from the Uniform Building and Fire Codes will
be placed on the protect so no impacts to fire services will occur No impacts are anticipated
b) Additional police protection is not required as the addition of the protect will not change the
pattern of uses within the surrounding area and will not have a substantial increase In
property to be patrolled as the protect site is within an area that is regularly patrolled

e) The proposed protect will utilize existing public facilities The site is in a developed area,
currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga The protect will not require the
construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing facilities or cause a decline in
the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities Cumulative
development within Rancho Cucamonga will increase demand for library services According
to the General Plan FEIR (Section 5 9 9), the protected increase in library space under the
General Plan will not meet the protected demand The General Plan FEIR identified the
cumulative impact on library services as a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a
Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council The
proposed protect is consistent with the General Plan for which the EIR was prepared and
impacts evaluated Since the adoption of the General Plan, the City has planned a new
library within the Victoria Gardens regional shopping center of approximately 22,000 square
feet, which is in excess of the protected need of 15,500 square feet at build-out of the City

traffic load in the Rancho Cucamonga area The proposed protect is consistent with the
General Plan for which the FEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated The protect is in an
area that is mostly developed with street improvements existing or included in protect design
The protect will not create a substantial increase in the number of vehicle trips, traffic volume
or congestion at intersections The protect site will be required to provide street
improvements (curb, gutter, and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the site per City
roadway standards In addition, the City has established a Transportation Development fee
that must be paid by the applicant prior to issuance of building permits Fees are used to
fund roadway improvements necessary to support adequate traffic circulation No impacts
are anticipated
b) This business park protect consists of 5 industrial buldings totaling 64,500 square feet
(including mezzanine area) light manufacturing Four of the buildings, totaling 31,400 square
feet, are manufacturing use The fifth building, totals 33,100 square feet, and is multrtenant
industrial use The protect will generate generate 99 two-way peak hour trips which is less
than the 250 two-way peak hour trips threshold for non-retail land use under the Countywide
Congestion Management Plan The protect is in an area that will be developed with all

1 ' c) All runoff will be conveyed to existing storm drain facilities, which have been designed to
handle the flows A grading and drainage plan must be approved by the Building Official and
City Engineer prior to issuance of grading permits The impact is not considered significant
d) The Cucamonga Valley Water District (CVWD) provides water treatment, storage, and
distribution of domestic water to Rancho Cucamonga, portions of the cities of Ontario and
Fontana, and a tract in Upland The current daily water usage in the CVWD service area is
41 7 million gallons per day (mgd) Residential water use amounts to about 60 percent of the
total water consumed Landscaping (public and private) is the next largest consumer of
water at 20 percent
Based on the proposed use and size, the protect does not fall under the requirements of SB
610 and SB 221, and, therefore, would not require a Water Supply Assessment The CVWD
has an adopted master plan that estimated water demand and supply needs until the year
2030 The CVWD is responsible for collecting developer fees for the construction and
operation of water and wastewater facilities Proposed water usage and sewer flows would
be in accordance with what was determined at the time of the General Plan adoption, and is
not considered significant The protect is served by the Cucamonga Valley Water District
water system There is currently a sufficient water supply available to the City of Rancho
Cucamonga to serve this protect No impacts are anticipated
e) The proposed protect is served by the Cucamonga County Water District sewer system,
which has waste treated by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency at the RP-4 treatment plant

17. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE
a) Does the protect have the potential to degrade the quality () () (/) ( )
of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a
fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population
to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate
1 a plant or animal community, reduce the number or
restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal,
or eliminate important examples of the mator periods of
California history or prehistory
b) Does the protect have impacts that are individually () () () (/)
limited, but cumulatively considerable ("Cumulatively
considerable" means that the incremental effects of a
protect are considerable when viewed in connection with
the effects of past protects, the effects of other current
protects, and the effects of probable future protects)
c) Does the protect have environmental effects which will () () () (/)
cause substantial adverse effects on human beings,
ether directly or indirectly
Comments
a) The protect site is located in an area developed with industrial and office/professional uses
The site has been previously disrupted during annual discing for weed abatement According
to the General Plan Exhibit IV-3, and Section 5 3 of the General Plan FEIR, the protect site is
not within an area of sensitive brological resources
b) If the proposed protect were approved, then the applicant would be required to develop the
site in accordance with the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan The 2001 General
Plan was adopted along with the certification of a Program FEIR, Findings of Fact, and a
Statement of Overriding Considerations for significant adverse environmental effects of build-
out in the City and Sphere of Influence The City made findings that adoption of the General
Plan would result in significant adverse effects to aggregate resources, prime farmland, air
quality, the acoustical environment, library services, and aesthetics and visual resources
Mitigation measures were adopted for each of these resources, however, they would not
reduce impacts to less-than-signficant levels As such, the City adopted a Statement of
Overriding Considerations balancing the benefits of development under the General Plan
Update against the significant unavoidable adverse impacts (CEQA Guidelines Section
15092 and 15096(h)) These benefits include less overall traffic volumes by developing
mixed-use protects that will be pedestrian friendly and conservation of valuable natural open
space With these findings and the Statement of Overriding Considerations, no further
discussion or evaluation of cumulative impacts is required
c) Development of the site under the proposed land use change would not cause substantial
adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly The Initial Study identifies
construction-related emissions of criteria pollutants as having a potentially significant impact
Proposed mitigation measures would further reduce emission levels Additionally, impacts
resulting from air quality would be short-term and would cease once construction activities
were completed The Initial Study identified potentially significant impacts associated with
the exposure of people to increased noise levels Mitigation measures contained in this Initial
Study will ensure impacts are at less-than-significant levels

FINDING ,~
This is to advise that the City of Rancho Cucamonga, acting as the lead agency, has conducted an
Initial Study to determine if the project may have a significant effect on the environment and is
proposing this Negative Declaration based upon the following finding:
^ The Initial Study shows that there is no substantial evidence that the protect may have a significant
effect on the environment
® The Initial Study identified potentially significant effects but
(1) Revisions in the protect plans or proposals made or agreed to by the applicant before this
proposed Negatroe Declaration was released for public review would avoid the effects or
mitigate the effects to a point where clearly no significant effects would occur, and
(2) There is no substantial evidence before the agency that the protect as revised may have a
sigmficant effect on the environment
If adopted, the Negatwe Declaration means that an Environmental Impact Report will not be required.
Reasons to support this finding are included in the attached Initial Study. The protect file and all
related documents are available for review at the City of Rancho Cucamonga Planning Division at
10500 Civic Center Drive (909) 477-2750 or Fax (909) 477-2847.

D Site Characteristics The protect site is located on the east side of Etiwanda Avenue south
of Etiwanda Intermediate School The site is predominately a vacant parcel with a slope
of 2 percent Located on-site are walnut trees and Eucalyptus windrows aligning the
north, east, and southern property lines To the south is the historic landmark Etiwanda
Railway Station property To the east is a vineyard
ANALYSIS
A General The developer intends to subdivide the property with no house product
submitted at this time The site will be developed under the Low Residential Development
Standards of the Etiwanda Speafic Plan The proposed average lot size is 15,110 square
feet, which meets all Etiwanda Specific Plan requirements The applicant is proposing to
develop the 22 lots with single-family homes at a later date
On October 28, 2003, the applicant originally submitted the protect totaling 32 single-family
lots The first revision was made to accommodate fire access and the layout was revised
to 28 lots The applicant resubmitted, and plans were forwarded to the Design Review
Committee for review Given the location of the protect and the frontage on Etiwanda
Avenue, the protect was forwarded to the Etiwanda/Base Lme Historic Study Task Force
_ for review The Task Force recommended that the applicant incorporate additional open
space/buffering in the layout of the subdivision The applicant revised the protect again
and reduced the lot count to 22 lots with 2 lettered lots fronting on Etiwanda Avenue (Lots
"B" and "C") These two lots will provide an extensive setback along Etiwanda Avenue
- with newly planted vineyards, which will be ultimately maintained by Filippi Winery,
(according to the applicant) The applicant has also incorporated buffers of landscape on
the north and south property lines and proposed Eucalyptus windrows on both sides for
screening and buffering purposes Because of the additional landscaping and extensive
buffering on the north, south, and west property lines, the applicant will develop the
property as a gated community with a formal entry, lettered lots, and landscaping, which
are to be maintained by a Homeowners Assoaation:
B Variance The applicant is proposing a Vanance to increase wall heights on the northern
and southern perimeter property lines from 6 feet to approximately an 11 5-foot high block
wall The Vanance is necessary because of retaining walls, varying in height from 1 5 feet
to 5 5 feet, needed to handle the grade differential from the properties to the north and
south The wall will be constructed as a retaining wall to retain a portion of the slope
Approval for the Vanance for wall heights would be compatible with the surrounding areas
and mfill conditions The walls proposed are a combination of perimeter wall and retaining
wall varying from 5 5 feet to 11 5 feet in height
C Design Review Committee The Committee originally reviewed the lot layout for 28 lots on
April 20, 2004 At the first meeting, the layout of the subdivision was discussed as a mator
issue and the Committee was concerned with the layout and the buffering space between
the intensity of uses between the properties abutting the north and south (school district
and trail head, respectively) The Committee tabled the item until the Etiwanda Task
Force could meet and review the proposal
D Etiwanda/Base Line Historic Studv Task Force The Etiwanda/Base Line Historic Study
Task Force reviewed the proposal on May 18, 2004 At this time, the developer revised
the layout and ultimately came up with the layout of 22 lots with the vineyard fronting

Etiwanda Avenue This included two lettered lots that continue into the property
approximately 160 feet in depth and 350 feet in width Once the Etiwanda Task Force
conceptually approved of the layout, the project was then sent back to the Design Review
Committee for review and was approved (see attached minutes)
E Technical Review Committee The Grading and Technical Review Committees have
reviewed the project and recommended approval subject to Speaal and Standard
Conditions attached
F Tree Removal Permit There are 152 trees throughout the property, including 111
heritage' trees and 41 non-heritage trees Most of the trees are in three Eucalyptus
windrows around the perimeter of the site The non-heritage trees consist of Walnut,
Avocado, several citrus, a Plum, and a Pepper tree The applicant agreed to preserve and
relocate as many trees as possible An arborist report was prepared by Knapp and
Assoaates (Oct 17, 2003) and concluded that the matority of the Eucalyptus trees are in
poor condition and are poor candidates for transplanting with a low survroability rate Only
22 Eucalyptus trees were rated as possible candidates for preserving Non-heritage trees
are exempt from the protection and replacement regwrements of the City's Tree
Preservation Ordinance As mitigation for their removal, new Eucalyptus windrow trees
will be planted per the Etiwanda Specific Plan
G Neighborhood Meeting A neighborhood meeting was held on February 23, 2004, at the
Amenhost Suites Hotel A total of two residents attended, and they were generally
accepting of the layout
H Environmental Assessment The applicant completed Part I of the Initial Study and staff
completed Part II Staff determined that the protect could have a significant adverse
environmental impact through short-term air quality impacts during the site preparation,
such as grading, equipment, and exhaust Staff also determined that there might be noise
impacts resulting from the traffic along Etiwanda Avenue, as well as biological impacts
resulting from tree removal The mitigation measures wdl reduce these impacts to a less
than significant level A noise study was prepared that concluded the traffic noise from
Etiwanda Avenue would be the dominant noise impact from the area The report
proposed sound attenuation measures to mitigate the noise to comply with the City of
Rancho Cucamonga noise control standards
' Heritage tree is defined by Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code as "any tree, shrub or plant
that meets at least one of the following criteria
1 All eucalyptus windrows, or -
2 All woody plants in excess of 15 feet in height and having a single trunk
circumference of 15 inches or more, as measured 24 inches from ground level, or
3 Multi-trunk tree(s) havng a total circumference of 30 inches or more, as measured
24 inches from ground level, or
4 A stand of trees the nature of which makes each dependent upon the others for
survival, or
5 Any other tree as may be deemed historically or culturally significant by the city
planner because of size, condition, location, or aesthetic qualities "

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND TENTATIVE TRACT SUBTT16716 - JT STORM
DEVELOPMENT-A request to subdivide 13 22 gross acres into 28 single-faintly homes in the Low
Residential District (2-4 dwelling units per acre) of the Etiwanda Specific Plan, located on the east
side of Etiwanda Avenue, approximately 660 feet south of Victona Avenue - APN 0227-121-16 and
49 Related Files Vanance DRC2003-01061 and Tree Removal Permit DRC2003-01060
Desion Parameters The developer intends to subdivide the property At this time, no house
product has been submitted Elevations for review and approval will be submitted at a later date
The property is a rectangular lot with a depth of 1,316 feet by 448 feet and a single "not a part
parcel" which fronts onto Etiwanda Avenue Surrounding land uses include Etiwanda Intermediate
School to the north, a small vineyard to the east, Etiwanda Railway Station to the south and
Etiwanda Avenue to the west The Etiwanda Railway Station property has been leased by the City
for a signature trailhead for the Pacific Electric Inland Empire Trail The_transition to single-family
homes on the north and south sides is critical
Etiwanda Avenue Overlay Distract regwres that future homes be oriented with their front toward
Etiwanda Avenue No homes are proposed at this time, however, lot size and width directly affect
the ability to plot properly The developer has provided extra width on these three lots accordingly
Staff Comments The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee
discussion _
Major Issues The following broad design issues wtll be the focus of Committee discussion
regarding this project
Subdivision Layout -The Committee should determine whether the subdroision, in
combination with the lot layout, is ideal for this location The proposed layout is a simple gnd-
pattern layout with inefficient single-loaded streets (i e , houses on one side of the street only)
The streets will be private, Homeowner's Association maintained, because of over 2,000 feet
of parkway along east-west streets that the City will not take into the Landscape Maintenance
Distract for the area The lots are proposed under the Basic Standards forthe Low Residential
Distract of the Etiwanda Specific Plan The subdivision meets and exceeds these lot
requirements, however, staff has discussed the idea of Optional Development Standards with
the developer Optional standards are intended to provide higher standards for the
development of protects of superior quality and compatibtlity These standards are used in
contunction with the Absolute Polices and Design Gwdelines dunng the Development Rewew
Process Staff believes that Optional Standards are appropriate in this case due to the
uniqueness of the site's location between the Etiwanda Intermediate School and the historic
landmark Etiwanda Railway Station property Optional Standards would provde a largerarea
of open space between the Etiwanda School District recreation fields and the Etiwanda
Railway Station property The opportunity exists to design a creative and innovative protect
that clusters homes within open space areas Under the Optional Development Standards
there is no minimum lot size because 30 percent of the site must be common open space
2 Because of both the Etiwanda Intermediate School (which includes parking and ball fields)
and the future Etiwanda Railway Station trailhead amenities, the developer is required to
provide at a minimum a 10-foot landscape buffer on each side of the property line The buffer

shall include mature vegetation on both sides to create a noise barrier and help screen the
future homes from ongoing activities
3 The protect provides a secondary emergency access point at the southwest comer of the tract,
however, the ideal solution is ultimately to connect with an existing street to the east (as
shown on Site Utilization Map This is not possible at this time because the property owner to
the east has no intention of developing his property and has planted a vineyard Staff
recommends that a stub street be provided to the east tract boundary at the location shown on
Site Uttlization Map
Secondary Issues Once all of the mator issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the
Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues
1 If the Committee members approve the general lot layout, it is required that the developer
submits a Landscape Plan specifically addressing the buffers, windrows, and vegetation for
the site The developer shall maximize the amount of open space and landscape buffer
provided The Landscape Plan shall include natural terrain and slope, as well as fencing and
walls proposed and a landscape plant palette addressing the required buffer
2 Tree Preservation The applicant is also proposing the removal of a partial windrow located in
the center of the parcel Trees which will be directly affected by the development will be
removed All windrows which are located on the north, south, and east property lines are
proposed to be retained The arborist disagrees and rated most of the trees as needing
replacement The developer will be requred to replace trees in accordance with the Etiwanda
Specific Plan standards (Spotted Gum windrows planted around perimeter of tract)
Policv Issues The following items are a matter of Planning Commission policy and should be
incorporated into the protect design without discussion
1 Blue Gum Eucalyptus trees which are recommended by the Arbonst to be removed shall be
replaced at a one to one ratio on-site The length of the windrow replacement shall be
comparable in length Replacement windrows should follow the protect perimeter and along
the 330-foot by 660-foot grid pattern wherever feasible All replacement trees shall be
replaced in accordance with the Etiwanda Speafic Plan Sections 5 41 400 and 500
Staff Recommendation Staff recommends that the protect be revised and return as a full item
Desion Review Committee Action
Members Present Fletcher, McPhail, Fong
Staff Planner Emily Wimer
The Committee decided to table the item until the next DRC meeting The applicantwas directed to
include Optional Development Standards as an option for the property The Etiwanda Task Force
meeting will review the protect plans on April 28, 2004, and comments will be available to the Design
Review Committee Members prior to the next meeting •
The item will be continued to the May 4, 2004, DRC meeting

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND TENTATIVE TRACT SUBTT16716 - JT STORM
DEVELOPMENT-A request to subdivide 13 22 gross acres into 28single-family homes in the Low
Residential District (2-4 dwelling units per acre) of the Etiwanda Specific Plan, located on the east
side of Etiwanda Avenue, approximately 660 feet south of Victoria Avenue - APN 0227-121-16
and 49 Related Files Variance DRC2003-01061 and Tree Removal Permit DRC2003-01060
Background The developer originally submitted the protect for review of 28 lots to the Design
Review Committee on April 20, 2004 (see attached) At this time, the layout of the subdivision was
discussed as a Mayor Issue The general consensus was not enough buffer space for single-family
homes between two high intensity public uses to the north and south The developer was presented
with the options to develop with additional amenities including additional open space, landscaping
and a large buffered area between the Pacific Electric Inland Empire Trail tratlhead to the south and
the tumor high school to the north At the meeting, the Design Review Committee members decided
to table the item until the Etiwanda Task Force meeting could meet and review the proposal This
would allow for feedback and a general direction from Task force
Etiwanda Task Force The Task Force was held on May 18, 2004 The developer presented a
revised scheme that addressed the concerns of buffering and open space, and reduced the number
of lots to 22 from 28 The lots meet the 15,000 square foot average regwrement of the Etiwanda
Specific Plan The scheme proposed a vineyard fronting on Etiwanda Avenue that continues into
the property approximately 160 feet in depth and approximately 350 in width including the gated
entry for the homes The developer explained at the meeting that J Fillips would be leased the
property and maintain the vineyards The buffer on the north and south property lines was also
expanded to incorporate an 8-foot wall and Eucalyptus windrow The Etiwanda Task Force
Committee Members agreed that this was a definite improvement from the original plans and
concurred that the layout was acceptable The protect was then scheduled for the Design Review
Committee
Design Parameters The developer intends to subdivide the property At this time, no house
product has been submitted Elevations for review and approval will be submitted at a later date
The property is a rectangular lot with a depth of 1,316 feet by 448 feet Surrounding land uses
include Etiwanda Intermediate School to the north, a small vineyard to the east, Etiwanda Railway
Station to the south, and Etiwanda Avenue to the west The Etiwanda Railway Station property has
been leased by the City for a signature trailhead for the Pacific Electric Inland Empire Trail
Etiwanda Avenue Overlay District requires that any homes be oriented with their front toward
Etiwanda Avenue Under the latest scheme there would be no homes along Etiwanda Avenue
Staff Comments The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee
discussion
Major Issues The following broad design issues will be the focus of Committee discussion
regarding this protect
1 The developer has worked diligently and tirelessly with staff to incorporate all of the
comments The protect has been to numerous Design Review Committee Meetings, a
Etiwanda Task Force Meeting, and revised plans and addressed all mator issues

Staff Recommendation Staff recommends that the Committee recommend approval by the
Planning Commission subtect to the recommendations listed above
Design Review Committee Action:
Members Present Fong, McPhail, Stewart
Staff Planner Emity Wimer
The Committee recommended approval with the following conditions
1 The house product for the subdivision shall not be of typical tract house A variety of house
design sensitive to the historic Etiwanda area shall be provided so that the subdivision has a
feel of custom homes
2 The CC & Rs shall have a disclosure statement for the intensity of the school use and the
community use The language shall be subtect to City Planner review and approval
Customize front yard landscaping including treatment to the driveway be provided to the lots
The Homeowner Associationshgll review and approve the frontyard landscaping and enforce
the 6-month time period for installation
4 Existing windrows along the east property boundary should be preserved in place as feasible
Individual trees for the windrow along the middle of the site should be considered for
preservation on a lot-by-lot case

TENTATIVE TRACT NO. 16716
JUSTIFICATION FOR VARIANCE ON RETAINING WALL HEIGHT
This~ustification accompanies a request for vanance to construct retaining walls along a
portion of the eastern and the southem boundary fines of Tentative Tract No 16716
varying m height from 1 5 feet to 5 5 feet In addition, these walls will have an
additional 6-foot vertical masonry /open wall and or fence for secunty and pnvacy
purposes Following is a bnef descnptron of the existing condition resulting m the need
for this request (~ ~ ~(; (~ ~ ~~
Tentative Tract 16716 is located along the east side of Etiwanda Avenue, approximately
660 feet south of V~ctona Avenue The site is approximately 450 feet wide north -
south, and 1,320 feet wide east -west The land is bounded to the north by an existing
school, to the east by vacant land, and to the south by an existing lumber yard
The srte slopes gently from north to south at a gradient of 2 5% to 3 0% Due to the
geometnc shape of the property, a single street runs east and west with lots fronting the
street from the north and south The lots along the south range in depth from 120 feet to
210 feet All of the-lots along the south side of the east -west street will drain to the
front of the lots into the proposed street Due to the depth of the lots, this forces the pads
to be considerably higher than the street With the natural ground falling at 2 5% to 3%,
the relationship of the rear of the lot to the existing ground vanes from 1.5 feet to 5 feet
In normal conditions this vertical relationship would be mitigated with the construction of
a 2 1 graded slope. In this case existing power poles, a sepazate land owner and use of
the adjacent property deny the opportunity to construct a 2 1 graded slope The
remaining option is to construct retaining walls to mitigate the vertical difference
between the reaz of the lot and the existing ground along the southern tract boundary

Comments
a) The prolect design includes the planting of a new vineyard, approximately 330 feet by 160
feet The site is not designated as Prime Farmlands, Unique Farmland or Farmland of
Statewide Importance The site is located on the east side of Etiwanda Avenue lust south
of Etiwanda Intermediate School and is characterized by low density development to the
west, an intermediate school the north, vineyards to the east and the historic landmark
Etiwanda Railway Station to the south There are approximately 1,300 acres of Prime
Farmlands, Unique Farmland or Farmland of Statewide Importance within the City of
Rancho Cucamonga, of which about one-third is either developed or committed to
development according to General Plan Table IV-2 The major concentrations of
designated farmlands are located in the southern and eastern portions of our City that is
characterized by existing and planned development Further, two-thirds of the designated
farmlands parcels are small, ranging from 3 acres to 30 acres, and their economic viability
is doubtful, therefore, they are not intended to be retained as farmland in the General Plan
Land Use Plan The General Plan FEIR identified the conversion of farmlands to urban
uses as a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding
Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Counal The proposed prolect is
consistent with the General Plan for which the FEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated
b) There is no agriculturally zoned land within the City of Rancho Cucamonga There are no
Williamson Act contracts within the City
c) The site Is located on the east side of Etiwanda Avenue lust south of Etiwanda
Intermediate School and is characterized by low density development to the west, an
intermediate school the north, vineyards to the east and the historic landmark Etiwanda
Railway Station to the south The nearest agricultural use is less than 5 miles east from
the prolect site No adverse impacts are anticipated

State standards The General Plan FEIR identified the citywide increase in emissions as
a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding
Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council The proposed protect is
consistent with the General Plan for which the FEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated
b) During the construction phases of development, on-site stationary sources, heavy-duty
construction vehicles, construction worker vehicles, and energy use will generate
emissions In addition, fugitive dust would also be generated during grading and
construction activities While most of the dust would settle on or near the protect site,
smaller particles would remain in the atmosphere, increasing particle levels within the
surrounding area Construction is an on-going industry in the Rancho Cucamonga area
Construction workers and equipment work and operate at one development site until their
tasks are complete They then transfer to a different site where the process begins again
Therefore, the emissions associated with construction activities are not new to the Rancho
Cucamonga area and they would not violate an air quality standard or worsen the existing
air quality in the region Nevertheless, fugitive dust and equipment emissions are required
to be assessed by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) on a
protect-specific basis Therefore, the following mitigation measures shall be implemented
to reduce impacts to less-than-significant levels
r1
LJ
1) All construction equipment shall be maintained in good operating condition
so as to reduce operational emissions Contractor shall ensure that all
construction equipment is being properly serviced and maintained as per
manufacturers' specifications Maintenance records shall be available at the
construction site for City venhcahon.
2) Prior to the issuance of any grading permits, developer shall submit
construction plans to City denoting the proposed schedule and protected
equipment use Construction contractors shall provide evidence that low
emission mobile construction equipment will be utilized, or that their use was
investigated and found to be infeasible for the protect. Contractors shall also
conform to any construction measures imposed by the South Coast Air
Quality Management District (SCAQMD) as well as City Planning Staff.
3) All paints and coatings shall meet or exceed performance standards noted in
SCAQMD Rule 1113 Paints and coatings shall be applied either by hand or
high volume, low-pressure spray
4) All asphalt shall meet or exceed performance standards noted in SCAQMD
Rule 1108
5) All construction equipment shall comply with SCAQMD Rules 402 and 403
Additionally, contractors shall include the following provisions.
Rev 1/27/04
• Reestablish ground cover on the construction site through seeding and
watering
Pave or apply gravel to any on-site haul roads.
• Phase grading to prevent the susceptibility of large areas to erosion over •
extended periods of time
• Schedule activities to minimize the amounts of exposed excavated soil
during and after the end of work periods.

• Dispose of surplus excavated material m accordance with local
ordinances and use sound engineering practices
• Sweep streets according to a schedule established by the City if silt is
carved over to adtacent public thoroughfares or occurs as a result of
hauling Timing may vary depending upon time of year of construction
• Suspend grading operations during high winds (i e , wind speeds
exceeding 25 mph) m accordance with Rule 403 requirements.
• Maintain a minimum 24-inch freeboard ratio on soils haul trucks or cover
payloads using tarps or other suitable means
6) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved
by SCADMD and Regional Water Quality Control Board [RWQCB]) daily to
reduce PM,g emissions, m accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403.
7) Chemical soil stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RW~CB) shall be
applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or
more to reduce PM,g emissions.
8) The construction contractor shall utilize electric or clean alternative fuel
powered equipment where feasible.
9) The construction contractor shall ensure that construction-grading plans
include a statement that work crews will shut off equipment when not m use
After implementation of the preceding mitigation measures, short-term construction au
quality emissions would remain significant as noted in the General Plan FEIR (Section
5 6) Based upon on the URBEMIS7G model estimates in Table 5 6-4 of the General
Plan FEIR, Nox, ROG, and PM,o would exceed SCAQMD thresholds for significance,
therefore, would all be cumulatively significant tf they cannot be mitigated on a protect
basis to a level less than sigmfcant The General Plan FEIR tdentified the atywide
increase in emissions as a significant unavoidable adverse impact for which a Statement
of Overriding Considerations was ultimately adopted by the City Council
In the long-term, development consistent with the General Plan would result in significant
operational vehicle emissions based upon on the URBEMIS7G model estimates in Table
5 6-4 of the General Plan FEIR, therefore, would all be cumulatively significant if they
cannot be mitigated on a protect basis to a level less than significant The following
mitigaton measures shall be implemented
10) All residential and commercial structures shall be required to incorporate
high effiaencyllow polluting heating, air conditioning, appliances, and water
heaters -
11) All residential and commercial structures shall be required to incorporate
thermal pane windows and weather-stripping.
After implementation of the preceding mitigation measures, the General Plan FEIR
identified the atywide increase in operational emissions as a significant unavoidable
adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately
adopted by the Cdy Council G

c) As noted in the General Plan FEIR (Section 5 6) continued development would contribute
to the pollutant levels in the Rancho Cucamonga area, which already exceed Federal and
State standards The General Plan FEIR identified the atywide increase in emissions as
a significant and adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was
ultimately adopted by the City Council The protect proposed is consistent with the
General Plan for which the FEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated
d) Sensitive receptors are defined as populations that are more susceptible to the effects of
pollution than the population at large The SCAQMD identifies the following as sensitive
receptors long-term health care faalities, rehabilitation centers, convalescent centers,
retirement homes, residences, schools, playgrounds, child care centers, and athletic
faalities According to the SCAQMD, protects have the potential to create significant
impacts if they are located within 1/4 mile of sensitive receptors and would emit toxic air
contaminants identified in SCAQMD Rule 1401 According to the SCAQMD, protects
have the potential to create significant impacts if they are located within 1/4 mtle of
sensitive receptors and would emit toxic air contaminants identified in SCAQMD Rule
1401 The protect site is located within 1/4 mile of a sensitive receptor the surrounding
single-family homes, the adtoining Etiwanda Intermediate School, and the nearby
Grapeland Elementary School Potential impacts to air quality are consistent with the
Public Health and Safety Super-Element within the Rancho Cucamonga General Plan
During construction, there is the possibility of fugitive dust to be generated from grading
the site The mitigation measures listed under b) above will reduce impact to less-than-
significant levels
e) Typically, the uses proposed do not create obtectionable odors No adverse impacts are
anticipated
4 BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES Would the pro/ect
a) Have a substantial adverse effect, either directly or () () () (~)
through habitat modifications, on any speces
identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status
species in local or regional plans, polices, or
regulations, or by the California Department of Fish

Comments•
a) The protect site is located in an area developed with surrounding mixed uses The site
has been previously disrupted during construction of infrastructure and surrounding
developments According to the General Plan Exhibit IV-3, and Section 5 3 of the General
Plan FEIR, the protect site is not within an area of sensitive biological resources,
therefore, development will not adversely affect rare or endangered species of plants or
animals due to the fact that the protect is surrounded by urbanized land uses and is
consistent with the General Plan Land Use Plan
b) The protect site is located in an urban area with no natural communities No riparian
habitat exists on site, meaning the protect will not have any impacts
c) No wetland habitat is present on site As a result, protect implementation would have no
impact on these resources
d) The mafority of the surrounding area has been or is being developed, thereby disrupting
any wildlife corridors that may have existed No adverse impacts are anticipated
e) The arboricultural report was preformed by Samuel Knapp an October 17, 2003, which
diwded the property into five areas Random trees outside the 3 main windrows are
recommended to be removed There are 91 trees on site, including 48 Eucalyptus Blue
Gum trees in windrows throughout the site, of which 31 black walnut trees are located
primarily on the southern property line The mafority of the black walnut trees are in good
condition, however, nut bearing trees are not "heritage trees" protected by the City's Tree
Preservation Ordinance The applicant has submitted an application for Tree Removal
Permit DRC2003-01060 Because of the high cost of relocating any existing healthy
trees, and the low long term survival rate of the trees, the applicant is proposing
replacement trees on site The Eucalyptus window located centrally on the lots extending
east to west will be considered for preservation on a lot by lot basis The following
mitigation measures would be incorporated to mitigate the loss of the existing trees on
site
1) Any existing heritage trees (as identified in the City's Tree Preservation
Ordinance) that are removed shall be replaced at a ratio of 1 to 1 with a 5-
gallon sized tree
2) Any heritage windrows removed per the Etiwanda Speafic Plan, shall be
replaced m linear feet 8 feet on center on site
. f) The protect site is not located within a conservation area according to the General Plan,
Open Space and Conservation Plan, Exhibit IV-4 No conflicts with habitat conservation
plans will occur

a) The protect site is vacant and has not been identified as a "Historic Resource" per the
standards of Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code Section 2 24 (Historic Preservation)
There will be no impact
C~
b) There are no known archaeological sites or resources recorded on the protect site,
however, the Rancho Cucamonga area is known to have been inhabited by Native
Americans according to the General Plan FEIR (Section 511) Construction activity,
particularly grading, soil excavation and compaction, could adversely affect or eliminate
existing and potential archaeological resources The following mitigation measures shall
be implemented
1) If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or during
grading, the developer will retain a qualified archaeologist to monitor
construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve
them for study With the assistance of the archaeologist, the City of Rancho
Cucamonga will:
• Enact interim measures to protect undesignated sites from demolition or
significant modification without an opportunity for the City to establish its
archaeological value.
• Consider estabhshmg provisions to regwre incorporation of
archaeological sites within new developments, using their special
qualities as a theme or focal point
• Pursue educating the public about the area's archaeological heritage
• Propose mitigation measures and recommend conditions of approval to
eliminate adverse protect effects on significant, important, and unique
prehistoric resources, following appropriate CEQA guidelines
• Prepare a technical resources management report, documenting the
inventory, evaluation, and proposed mitigation of resources within the
protect area Submit one copy of the completed report with original
illustrations, to the San Bernardino County Archaeological Information
Center for permanent archiving
c)
The General Plan FEIR (Section 5 11) indicates that the Rancho Cucamonga area is on

Late Pleistocene epoch of the Quaternary period, when the last "Ice Age" and the
appearance of modern man occurred, may contain significant vertebrate fossils The
protect site is underlain by Quaternary alluvium per General Plan Exhibit V-2, therefore,
the following mitigation measures shall be Implemented
2) A qualified paleontologist shall conduct a preconstruction field survey of the
protect site The paleontologist shall submit a report of findings that will also
provide speafic recommendations regarding further mitigation measures (I e ,
paleontological monitoring) that may be appropriate Where mitigation
monitoring Is appropriate, the program must include, but not be limited to, the
following measures.
Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow the rapid
removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to the site full-time
during the Interval of earth-disturbing activities.
Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded, divert
earth-disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has completed
salvage If construction personnel make the discovery, the grading
contractor should Immediately divert construction and notify the monitor
of the find.
Submit summary report to City of Rancho Cucamonga. Transfer collected
specimens with a copy of.the report to San Bernardino County Museum
d) The proposed protect Is in an area that has already been disturbed by development The
protect site has already been disrupted by construction of infrastructure and surrounding
developments No known religious or sacred sites exist within the protect area No

Comments
a) No known faults pass through the site and it is not in an Earthquake Fault Zone, nor is it in
the Rancho Cucamonga City Special Study Zone along the Red Hill Fault, according to the
General Plan Exhibit V-1, and Section 5 1 of the General Plan FEIR The Red Hill Fault,
passes within 3 miles north of the site, and the Cucamonga Fault Zone lies approximately 5
mile north These faults are both capable of producing Mw 6 0-7 0 earthquakes Also, the
San Jacinto fault, capable of producng up to Mw 7 5 earthquakes is 15 miles northeasterly of
the site and the San Andreas, capable of up to Mw 8 2 earthquakes, is 16 5 miles
northeasterly of the site Each of these faults can produce strong ground shaking Adhering
to the Uniform Building Code will ensure that geologic impacts are less than significant
b) The Rancho Cucamonga area is subject to strong Santa Ana wind conditions during
September to April, which generates blowing sand and dust, and creates erosion
problems Construction activities may temporarily exacerbate the impacts of windblown
sand, resulting in temporary problems of dust control, however, development of this
project under the General Plan would help to reduce windblown sand impacts in the area
as pavement, roads, buildings, and landscaping are established Therefore, the following
fugitive dust mitigation measures shall be implemented to reduce impacts to less-than-
significant levels
1) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved by
SCAQMD and RWQCB) daily to reduce PM~g emissions, in accordance with
SCAQMD Rule 403.
2) Frontage public streets shall be swept according to a schedule established by
the City to reduce PM~g emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil off-
site. Timing may vary depending upon time of year of construction
3) Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph to
minimize PM~g emissions from the site during such episodes.
4) Chemical soil stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be
applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or
more to reduce PM~g emissions
c) The General Plan FEIR (Section 51) indicates that subsidence is generally associated
with large decreases or withdrawals of water from the aquifer The project would not

d) The site is in a developed area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga The
nearest park, Windrows Park, is located 38 miles west of the protect site The protect will
not require the construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing facilities or
cause a decline in the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new
facilities A standard condition of approval will regwre the developer to pay park
development fees No impacts are anticipated
e) The proposed protect will utilize existing public facilities The site is in a developed area,
currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga The protect will not require the
construction of any new facilities or alteration of any existing facilities or cause a decline in
the levels of service, which could cause the need to construct new facilities Cumulative
development within Rancho Cucamonga will increase demand for library services
According to the General Plan FEIR (Section 5 9 9), the protected increase in library
space under the General Plan will not meet the protected demand The General Plan
FEIR identified the cumulative impact on library services as a significant unavoidable
adverse impact for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations was ultimately
adopted by the City Council The proposed protect is consistent with the General Plan for
which the EIR was prepared and impacts evaluated Since the adoption of the General
Plan, the City has planned a new library within the Victoria Gardens regional shopping
center of approximately 22,000 square feet, which is in excess of the protected need of
15,500 square feet at build-out of the City
14. RECREATION. Would the protect
a) Increase the use of existing neighborhood and O O U (~)
regional parks or other recreational facilities such that
substantial physical deterioration of the facility would
occur or be accelerated
b) Does the protect include recreational facilities or O O O (`~)
require the construction or expansion of recreational
facilities, which might have an adverse physical effect
on the environment
Comments.
a) The site is in a developed area, currently served by the City of Rancho Cucamonga The
nearest park, Windrows Park, is located 38 miles west of the protect site This protect is
not proposing any new housing or large employment generator that would cause an
increase in the use of parks or other recreational facilities A standard condition of
approval will require the developer to pay park development fees No impacts are
anticipated

Comments• -
a) As noted in the General Plan FEIR (Section 5 5), continued development will contribute to
the traffic load in the Rancho Cucamonga area The proposed protect is consistent with
the General Plan for which the FEIR was prepared and impacts evaluated The protect is
in an area that is mostly developed with street Improvements existing or included in
protect design The protect will not create a substantial increase in the number of vehicle
trips, traffic volume or congestion at intersections The protect site will be regwred to
provide street improvements (curb, gutter and sidewalk) along the street frontage of the
site per City roadway standards In addition, the City has established a Transportation
Development fee that must be paid by the applicant prior to issuance of building permits
Fees are used to fund roadway improvements necessary to support adequate traffic
circulation No impacts are anticipated
b) The protect will generate a minimum of 22 two-way peak hour trips, which is less than 250
two-way peak hour trips for non-retail threshold of the San Bernardino Congestion
Management Plan (CMP) criteria for requiring a traffic impact analysis The protect is in
an area that is mostly developed with all street improvements existing The protect will not
negatively impact the level of service standards on adtacent arterials The protect will be
regwred to provide street improvements (curb, gutter and sidewalk) along the street
frontage of the site No impacts are anticipated
c) Located approximately 6 miles northerly of the Ontario Airport, the site is offset north of
the flight path and will not change air traffic patterns No impacts are anticipated
d) The protect is in an area that is mostly developed The protect will be required to provide

17. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE
a) Does the protect have the potential to degrade the () () () (/)
quality of the environment, substantially reduce the
habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or
wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels,
threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community,
reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or
endangered plant or animal, or eliminate important
examples of the mator periods of California history or
prehistory
b) Does the protect have impacts that are individually O O O (/)
limited, but cumulatively considerable ("Cumulatively
considerable" means that the incremental effects of a
protect are considerable when viewed in connection
with the effects of past protects, the effects of other
current protects, and the effects of probable future
protects)v
c) Does the protect have environmental effects that will () () () (/)
cause substantial adverse effects on human beings,
either directly or indirectly
Comments.
a) The site is not located in an area of sensitive biological resources as identified on the City
of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan Exhibit IV-3 Additionally, the area surrounding the
site is developed Based on previous development and street improvements, it is unlikely
that any endangered or rare species would inhabit the site
Rev 1/27/04 ~J ~ ~~
Initial Study for JT STORM City of Rancho Cucamonga
SUBTT16716 Page 25
b) If the proposed protect were approved, then the applicant would be required to develop
the site in accordance with the City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan The 2001
General Plan was adopted along with the certification of a Program FEIR, Findings of
Fact, and a Statement of Overriding Considerations for significant adverse environmental
effects of bwld-out in the City and Sphere of Influence The City made findings that
adoption of the General Plan would result in significant adverse effects to aggregate
resources, prime farmland, air quality, the acoustical environment, library services, and
aesthetics and visual resources Mitigation measures were adopted for each of these
resources, however, they would not reduce impacts to less than significant levels As
such, the City adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations balancing the benefits of
~ development under the General Plan Update against the significant unavoidable adverse
impacts (CEQA Gwdelines Section 15092 and 15096(h)) These benefits include less
overall traffic volumes by developing mixed-use protects that will be pedestrian friendly
and conservation of valuable natural open space With these findings and the Statement
of Overriding Considerations, no further discussion or evaluation of cumulative impacts is
required
c) Development of the site under the proposed land use change would not cause substantial
adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly The Initial Study identifies
construction-related emissions of criteria pollutants as having a potentially significant
impact Proposed mitigation measures would further reduce emission levels
Additionally, impacts resulting from air quality would be short-term and would cease once
construction activities were completed The Initial Study identified potentially significant
impacts associated with the exposure of people to increased noise levels Mitigation
measures contained in this Instal Study wdl ensure impacts are at less than signficant
levels
EARLIER ANALYSES
Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering, program EIR, or other CEQA process, one
or more effects have been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or Negative Declaration per Section
15063(c)(3)(D) The effects identified above for this protect were within the scope of and adequately
analyzed in the following earlier document(s) pursuant to applicable legal standards, and such effects
were addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis The following earlier analyses
were utilized in completing this Initial Study and are available for review in the City of Rancho

portion of the slope Approval for the Vanance for wall heights would be compatible with the
surrounding areas and infill conditions The walls proposed are a combination of penmeter wall and

d Strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulations would
result in practical difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship, in that limiting wall heights at the rear
of the lots would create slopes that are hard to maintain and that would allow visibility into the rear
yards
e There are exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to
the property involved that do not apply generally to other properties in the same district, m that the
property is surrounded by an Intermediate School, Etiwanda Railway Station, and a vineyard
Creating a terrace wall design on-site would create a double wall condition that would create slopes
that are hard to maintain
f Strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would
deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties m the same district, in
that it would essentially reduce the usable yards for those lots on the south side of the property, with
slopes that are hard to maintain and that would allow visibility into the rear yards
g. Granting of the Variance will not constitute a grant of special pnwlege inconsistent
with the limitations on other properties classified in the same district, m that other properties with
similar site and wall conditions would warrant the granting of a Vanance
h Granting of the Variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or
welfare or materially infunous to properties or improvements in the vicinity, in that the wall will be
constructed per building code and with a decorative material to match existing perimeter walls in the
area
3 Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above-
referenced meeting on July 28, 2004, including written and oral staff reports, this Commission
hereby specifically finds and concludes as follows

would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship inconsistent with the obfectives
of the Development Code

to the property involved or to the intended use of the property that do not apply generally to other
properties in the same district
c That strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would
deprive the applicant of privileges enfoyed by the owners of other properties in the same district
