and
b. The property to the north of the subject site is designated Neighborhood
Commercial; the property to the west is designated Office Professional; the property to the east
is designated Low Residential; and the property to the south is designated Low Residential; and
c. This amendment does not conflict with the Land Use Policies of the General

within the district in a manner consistent with the General Plan and with related development.
Additionally, it will provide a public benefit by preserving an existing historic landmark; and
d. This amendment does promote the goals and objectives of the Land Use
Element by promoting consistent residential development/land use patterns; and

adjacent properties and would not have a significant impact on the environment nor the
surrounding properties. Additionally, the site is developed with an existing historic single-family
home consistent with surrounding land uses in the vicinity.
SECTION 3: The Planning Department staff has determined that the project is exempt
from requirements of California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA
Guidelines. The project will permit less density and the effect will allow no more intense use of
the property than is already being used, and since it can be seen with certainty that there is no
possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the
proposal is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to CEQA Guidelines
Section 15061(b)(3) -Review for Exemption. The City Council has reviewed the Planning
Department's determination of exemption, and based on its own independent judgment, concurs

Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga hereby declares that it would have adopted this

subsequently be declared invalid or unconstitutional or preempted by subsequent legislation.
