Inasmuch as those improvements will require more time and more capital than is anticipated we are requesting a six month extention to complete those improvements. We do not know the expiration date of our tentative approval, because there were many amendments and additional requirements which were forthcoming between February 15 and April 15, 1979. Please let us know the deadline and the date our extention, if granted will expire. Thank you for your assistance in the above matter. Sincerely, John O. Meyers JOM:rm .I 0 CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA STAFF REPORT DATE: February 28, 1979 TO: Planning Commission 0 FROM: Jack Lam, Director of Community Development SUBJECT: Zoning Ordinance Amendment No. 79 -01 - Sign Ordinance An amendment to the zoning ordinance to add a new sign ordinance and repeal all existing sign regulations. BACKGROUND: Since the Planning Commission's meeting of January 24, 1979, the Commission held a special study session to discuss the various issues of the ordinance and staff has presented the proposed sign ordinance to the Citizens Advisory Committee for their review and comment. The Citizens Advisory Committee unanimously voted to support the major concepts and purposes of the proposed sign ordinance. In addition, the sign committee of the chamber will be meeting on February 27, 1979 for further review of the proposed ordinance with the business community. ANALYSIS: Through the various meetings and discussions, several major issues continue to arise. These issues and options are discussed in the following paragraphs for your review and consideration. 1. Issue: Height of Monument Signs Proposed Ordinance Provisions: The ordinance provisions permit the use of monument signs up to 8' in height for commercial and industrial uses. Options: The physical character of the commercial and industrial areas ..s an important factor in their economic stability and well being. The quality of site planning, building design, landscaping, and signing zontributes to a- .quality environment which is condusive to a strong and active "shoppers market ". Signs designed to human scale versus numerous and large signs competing with one another, create a more pleasant and safe feeling for shoppers. It is becomming more evident everyday, by looking at the new shopping centers and plazas, that people enjoy shopping in attracti-e places. Therefore, the limitation in sign height is directly linked to the philosophy of creating eronomic stability and a more desirable shopping environment. Lower height signs are easier to read and locate since these fall within the effective motorist cone of vision. In addition, lower height signs are safer because a motorist line of vision does not leave the road. The sign heights proposed by the ordinance is well within the line of vision of a motorist and will create a more readible and safer signs as well as helping to create a more magnetic and esthetically appealing business community. 2. Issue: Off Site Signs Proposed Ordinance Provision: Off -site signs are presently prohibited ': j-- ,- -��- tAv- the-exception -for temporary off -site subdivision directional signs 0 0 -z- and authorized civic signing- Options: The major issue seems to center around directional signs for the winerys. The winerys in Rancho Cucamonga represent a historically significant industry which has deep roots in the heritage of this community. In addition, the General Plan has recognized the importance of preserving the winerys because of their historical significance. The survival and preservation of the winerys is largely contingent upon a certain amount of tourism. The concern of the winerys is that successful tourism is dependent upon directing tourist to their specific locations. Since the winerys have been recognized a., a historical resource, staff suggests that appropriate directional signing could be developed for the winerys that would meet the intent and purpose of the proposed ordinance and the General Plan. Staff recommends that a section be added to the ordinance that will permit directional signing for winerys and that t. - details of size, design and placement be worked out by the winerys and staff with approval by the Planning Commission. 3. Issue: Amortization Pro osed Ordinanre Provisions: The ordinance proposes amortization of nonconforming signs: based on the value of the sign not to exceed a maximim of 5 years. Options: The philosophy of the ordinance, relative to amortization, is to create a positive image and character through sign programs that will improve the quality of the community's business district both physically and economically. Everyone realizes that many existing businesses would be required to resign their business under the amortization provisions but on the other hand may realize that a significant portion of the existing business will voluntarily resign because of the natural occurrence of business competition and improvements. There will be situations where this won't occur and amortization will be necessary. If no amortization occurs, then there will be signs that will remain for an indefinite period of time. As a result of no amortization, the city will not attain the image and character-it, is trying to develop. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Division staff recommends that the Planning Commission make appropriate revisions, if any, to the proposed ordinance and recommend adoption of such ordinance to the City Council by adopting Resolution No. 79 -08.

As you will remember from my letter of December 4, 1978, the Planning Commission on August 23, 1978 denied your request for a change of zone on your property from (700) R -3 -T to A -1. Since the current zone of (700) R -3 -T does not allow a commercial nursery, you were directed to cease operation of your business. Staff allowed you six months to cease operation during which time you were to find a new location. We feel that six months is a reasonable amount of time to find a new site. We regret you have not found a new location, however, we cannot extend this period any longer. Please note that if your operation has not ceased by February 23, 1979, the matter will be referred to the City Attorney. If you have any further questions regarding this matter, please call me at this office.

Since September of 1978, the Shibatas have explored several locations, and have finally located one which apparently will be suitable for their operation from the standpoint of both the City of Rancho Cucamonga and the Shibatas.

Shibata, upon his inquiry, has been informed by various employ- ees of the City of Rancho Cucamonga that the proposed relocation site would be suitable for the nursery enterprise. He has also been informed that the proposed site apparently is also the only site in the, entire City of Rancho Cucamonga which would be suitable for the nursery enterprise.

PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA. BY: Herman Rempel, Chairman ATTEST: Secretary of the Planning Commission I, JACK LAM, Secretary of the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, do hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was duly and regularly introduced, ® passed, and adopted by the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga at s a regular meeting of the Planning Commission held on the 28th day of February,1979. AYES: COMMISSIONERS: NOES: COMMISSIONERS: ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: i,,:; DATE: TO: 0 CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA February 28, 1979 Planning Commission STAFF REr?RT 0 FROM: Jack Lam, Director of Community Development SUBJECT: Site Approval No. 79 -04 - McKeever The development of a 4,400 sq. ft. building for use as a child day care center; located on the west side of Hellman Avenue south of 19th Street, 6730 Hellman Avenue. BACKGROUND: Mr. Carl McKeever proposes to build a 4,400 sq. ft. child day care center on an 67 acre parcel at the above described location. The center will accommodate 84 children who will be supervised by 8 employees. The school's hours will be 6:30 a.m to 6:00 p.m. The current zoning is R -1 (single family residential.) and the general plan designation is low density residential (2 -5 units per acre). A day care facility is allowed in the R -1 zone upon Planning Commission approval. ANALYSIS: The site is vacant and surrounded by single family residences to the north, south and east, and the Hellman wash to the west. A circular one - way driveway will provide access to the site, the northern driveway serving as the entrance. The required parking ratio is 1 space per employee plus one space per students. The applicant proposes twenty -four spaces which meets the zoning ordinance requirements. The major issue associated with this project is the compatibility of a day care center with single family residences. The Commission must decide whether this particular 3roposal would be detrimental to the surrounding residences. Staff feels that a child day care center can be compatible if planned properly. The major problems associated with such centers are traffic, noise generated by playing children, and location of play areas in relation to neighboring properties. The design of the parking drives and spaces will greatly reduce traffic congestion on Hellman Avenue. Most traffic will occur between the hours of 7:00 and 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 and 6:00 P.M. The Engineering Department has reviewed the potential traffic impact and has determine no significant adverse impact will be created. The play yard will be 6,800 sq. ft. in area and located to the rear of the structure. A 5 foot chain link fence will enclose the yard and create a setback of at least 20 feet from any adjacent property, thus, ensuring protection for adjacent properties regarding noise and privacy intrusion. The applicant proposes a dense landscape screen along both the northern and southern property lines. Staff feels that landscaping will not provide adequate noise reduction and recommends a 6' masonry wall be provided instead. The total design of the center was intended to eliminate impacts on adjacent residents. ITEM nFn -z- ® Architecturally, the applicant proposes off -white stucco walls, with dark wood trim and fascia, and a wood shingle roof (see elevation plans). A colored rendition and a materials display board will be on display at the meeting. a ENVIROMIENTAL ANALYSIS: The parcel is devoid of any significant fauna or " flora. A Eucalyptus windrow located within the parkway will have to be removed at the time street improvements are put in and those trees will be 4F replaced on a one - for -one basis. Staff finds that removal of these trees will not create a significant adverse environmental impact. J. The environmental checklist indicates that no cultural, historical or scenic resources are on this property. Staff has field checked the site and has ' found no discrepancies with the.checklist. Staff has found no other significant environmc�tal impacts associated with this project, therefore, recommends issuance of a i;egative Declaration. CORRESPONDENCE: A notice of public hearing was published in the Cucamonga Times on February 16, 1979. Further, all property owners within 300' of the subject site were notified by certified mail. At the time this report was written, staff had received one phone call from an adjacent owner who objected to the use. The caller was concerned about the center's impact on the surrounding residents. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of Resolution No. 79 -17 approving Site Approval No. 79 -04 allowing the development of a day care center at 6730 Hellman Avenue.

Date �j --= c-�—� Signature Title Qc Yj 0 L J ,r : Date: To: From: 0 CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA STAFF REPORT February 28, 1979 Planning Commission Jack Lam, Director of Community Development 0 Subject: DIRECTOR REVIEW NO. 79 -05 - KETNER - The development of a 138 unit apartment complex to be located on the east side of Archibald Avenue where Monte Vista intersects Archibald BACKGROUND: Ken Ketner and associates are requesting approval for the develop- ment of a 138 unit apartment complex on 8.27 acres of land located on the east side of Archibald Avenue where Monte Vista intersects Archibald (Exhibit "A '). Victoria Street, which presently does not extend to Archibald, will be extended to Archibald Avenue and will border the north boundary of the project site. The present zoning is R -3 -2300 which permits one dwelling unit for every 2300 square feet of land. The General Plan indicates medium density residential at densities from 5 to 15 dwellings per acre. The present land use for surrounding properties is as follows: Fast - gruves; West - single family residential; North - vacant; South - a Christmas tree farm. ANALYSIS: The project consists of 138 dwelling units on 10.14 gross acres of land which figures to a density of 13.6 units per acre. The project consists of 24 separate buildings which contai -a 72 two bedroom units and 66 one bedroom units. Site development plans indicate a total of 276 parking spaces; 138 are zovered and 138 are open. Staff is recommending that the open parking spaces located around the circle drives be a minimum of 10' in width at the rear of the stalls. In addition, Staff is recommending that the angled parking stalls ,round complexes 15, 11 and 12 be changed to 900 parking to allow ease of access from both traffic directions. Exhibit "B" displays a preliminary landscaping plan indicating the basic concepts for landscaping the project. The plan indicates the use of curved wall segments and mounding along Archibald Avenue. Details of this area will be on display at the meEong. Particular attention should be paid to this area as Archibald Avenue is indicated as a special boulevard on the General Plan. The use of. these walls provides a rather semetrical and monotonous view of the project. In addition, the walls seem to interupt the continuity of the landscaped area for Archibald Avenue. Staff would recommend that the walls be eliminated and rep' -iced entirely with earth mounts, landscaping and meandering walkways. Exhibits "C" and "D" display details of the exterior building elevations. Typi- cal building materials include concrete tile roofing, rough sawn redwood trim, stucco, and wrought iron. Staff is recommending that additional wood trim be pro- ITEM "K° vided around windows a::1 sliding doors on units number 1, 5, 7 and 13 facing Archibald Avenue. In addition, Staff is recommending that the carports be architecturally compatible with the dwelling units. This can be done by utilizing.wood trim and wood facias rather than the aluminum and steel proposed. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS: After review of the Initial Study, the Environmental Analysis Staff has found no significant adverse imprcts on the environment as i a result of the project. The site is presently a non - producing grove and does not contain evidence of any known cultural, historical, or scenic aspects. Staff recommends a Negative Declaration be issued for this project. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approval of Director Review No. 79 -06 based on the findings and conditions listed in the attached Resolution No. , 79 -19.

The structure has been used for a variety of uses including a meeting hall for the City Council snd planning Commission. The proposal before the Commission tonight proposes renovation of the existing structure and an addition of 5,220 square feet. With the addition to the existing structure there would be a new entrance located across from the library entrance, rather than the current entrance from Lions Street. The existing structure would be utilized for a recreation hall, exercise room, restroom facilities and storage room. T'-e new addition would contain a office area, kitchen, rest - room facilities, three classroom and meeting rooms and a community hall which could be used for meetings of the Planning Commission, City Council, small stage productions and the like. The construction of the addition will occur while the existing building 1s still in operation. The elevations proposed are reminiscent of the adjacent library providing compatibility of design. The use of padre (dark brown) brick, dark stained wood trim, Spanish tile capping and tan stucco will further ,blend with the existing library. Relief has been provided on the flat walled surface of the existing building by creating pilasters of brick punctuated with sloped landscaped areas. Parking for the addition would be provided by the existing 100 parking spaces between the library and the Community Service Center. While no landscape plan has been provided, you will v%, -e that the site plan has indicated the conceptual landscaping proposed for the immediate area surrounding the subject property. ANALYSIS: Our analysis of the site plan and elevations .finds them to be well designed and meeting all code requirements. The uusterevess of the existing Ccmm.nnity Services Building has been substantially upgraded by the inclusion of the pilasters, stucco, wood trim and tile cap that will tie the existing structure into the new addition quite well. The elimination of the driveway . on Paseline will help to accentuate the main entrance to the parking area for both the Community Services Center and the Library in addition to providing landscaping along the Baseline frontage. ; A6:. k.

Date January 23, 1979 Z3 Signature Larry Wolff Architect Title CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA STAFF REPORT Date: February 28, 1979 To: Planning Commission From: Jack Lam, Director of Community Development Subject: SITE APPROVAL NO. 79 -06 - ALTA LOMA RIDING CLUB - Request for the development of two temporary riding rings and associated parking facility to be located in Heritage Park in the R- 1- 20,000 zone on the west side of Beryl Avenue south of Hillside Road BACKGROUND: The Alta Loma Riding Club is proposing to develop two riding rings; a main show ring, approximately 120 feet by 240 feet, and a practice ring 60 feet by 120 feet. There will be parking lot (not paved) provided for 31 parking spaces, 15 of those being truck and trailer spaces. One means of access is proposed off of Beryl at the southeast end of the site. Although the project is proposed on a community park, all work will be done by the Alta Loma Riding Club and volunteers. The City's responsibility will be to provide a water meter. ANALYSIS: We suggest the following alteraticns and additions to the proposed plan: 1. The parking lot area should be doubled in size. In conversations with the Alta Loma Riding Club they have indicated the possibility of 70 people at a given event. The aisle width proposed should be a minimum of 25 feet in order to facilitate the turning movements of a vehicle pulling a trailer. This request would require moving the main show ring and the practice ring northerly by approximately 125 feet. In light of the fact that the property now is in vine- yards, we do not feel that this would create a significant problem for the Alta Loma Riding Club or the City of Rancho Cucamonga. 2. In light of the fact that the parking lot area is proposed to be graded compacted dirt, and this is a temporary project, we propose that the applicant provide slag instead of the compacted dirt in the parking lot area to minimize the dust. 3. A water system should be provided to minimize the dust problem in the riding area. 4. Activities generally occur on weekends or holidays and impacts the area all at one particular time. We suggest that because of this proposal is on a community park that the Director of Community Ser- vices be notified a minimum of two weeks in advance of any major activity, the Alta Lama Riding Club or the sponsor of the event may have to provide for traffic control in the way of a police officer or other traffic control devices. $ * * &y ITEM "Hll Page 2 Site Approval No. 70 February 28, 1979 5. The entrance to the parkipg area should also be enhanced with landscaping. This might include minimal groundcover and a few trees. The environmental checklist did not indicate any significant adverse environ- mental impacts as a result of this project.

Date signature/ Title 0 DATE: TO: FROM: ITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA February 28, 1979 Planning Commission STAFF REPORT Jack Lam, Director of Community Development 0 SUBJECT: Director Review 78 -57 Hutner b Appel - Development of a two phased professional office complex on 1.37 acres of land; located on the north side of Foothill Boulevard 630 feet west of San Diego Avenue. BACKGROUND: Hutner and Appel Architects propose to build a 20,450 sq. ft. professional office complex. The project will be constructed in two phases; the first, a 12,582 sq. ft. building and the second, a 7,867 sq. ft. addition. The current zoning is C -2 and the General Plan designation is Mixed Use. Professional offices are. allowed in the C -2 zone, however, this zone is incompatible with the mixed use designation. Staff is recommending the applicant submit a declaration of restrictions limiting uses of this property to those in the AP zone. Further, staff recommends adoption of a resolution of intent to change the zone from C-2 to AP. This resolution is included as partof this report. ANALYSIS: The parcel is a 1.37 acre triangular shaped lot situated between the Southern Pacific Railroad tracts to the north and the Foothill Boulevard right- of-way to the south (Exhibit A). At one time, Foothill Boulevard was real4gned 100' southwa=-2 -f this site, however, the original right -of -way was never vacated.l Thus, the front property line is approximately 60 feet from the existing edge of pavement. The applicant is requesting an 18 foot setback from the front property line; a deviation from the required 25' front setback. Staff is recommending approval of this request with the condition that landscaping be providad within the parkway area. A single 25' wide driveway will provide access to the site. The parking area will be located on the eastern portion of the lot. One hundred parking spaces are proposed; sixty for phase 1 and an additional forty for phase 2. A trash enclosure is shown on the eastern end of the parking lot. Staff recommends this enclosure be located closer to the building. A billboard is currently located on the west side of the property. Staff recommends this billboard be removed prior to the issuance of building pen ^.ins. Architecturally, the applicant proposes cement plaster pillars with horizont..l redwood siding and dark bronze glass windows; a colored rendeving will be on display at the meeting. Staff feels the architecture is in keeping with the IStaff is considering vacation of the right -of -sway. Such an action would be brought before the Planning Commission at a future meeting. ITEM "L" -2- design policies established for Foothill Boulevard. In terms of landscaping, the applicant will be required to submit a detailed landscape and irrigation plan prior to issuance of building permits. The conceptual plan shows landscaping of the front portion of the property and the parking lot. Staff suggests landscape planting to screen the parking lot from Foothill Boulevard, planting and irrigation of the parkway area, and trimming and topping of the existing Eucalyptus trees within the parkway. EHVIROtv'MENTAL A14ALYSIS: The project site lies within the Red Hill Fault Special Study Zone. As per staff requirements, the applicant contracted the Pacific Soils Engineering, Inc. to complete a geotechnical report for the site; a copy is contained withiu your packets. The report addresees all fault hazards associated with the site including surface rupture, displacement and landeliding. The report was reviewed for its adequacy by Richard Mills and Associates, a local engineering firm, and was found to be adequate in scope and content. The conclusion drawn by the report is the site is not subject to direct or indirect faulting hazards. Copies of all correspondence between the two bIrms and the City are attached to this report. Other environmental hazards staff has considered are grading, drainage and removal of Eucalyptus trees on Foothill Boulevard. The lot slopes gently to the south and is perched on a 6' ridge overlooking Foothill Boulevard. A 2' - 5' ret"ining wall will be built along the eastern property line to support the lot; parking no other significant grading will occur on the site. The applicant proposes draining the site to Foothill Boulevard. The Engineering Division is requiring the submittal of drainage plan subject to the approval of the City Engineer and Caltrans prior to issuance of s building permit. A row of Eucalyptus trees runs along the parkway in front of the property. The applicant is proposing ti, remove some of the older trees and using the rest for parkway landscaping. Staff feels that removal of these trees will not create a significant environmental impact, however, a tree permit-will be required prior to removal of any trees. The applicant has satisfied all of staff's environmental concerns and, there - fore, recommends the issuance of a Negative Declaration. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends 1) adoption of resolution No. 79 -16 approving Director Review No. 78 -57, and 2) adoption of the resolution of intent to change the zone of the property from C -2 to AP.

Hunter, Jr. SUBJECT: Environmental Review of Director Review No. 78 -57; Request to build a two -phase office complex generally located on the north side of Foothill Blvd., west of San Diego Avenue Gentlemen: The Environmental Analysis Staff has reviewed your project to determine whether any adverse environmental impacts affect your property. It has been determined from the City's Environmental Constraints Map, that the inferred Red Hill Fault runs adjacent to your property on the north side (see attached map). This fault has been inferred by the California Division of Mines and Geology (SP 113) using ground water blockage data and is viewed as a potential hazard. At this point in time, an environmental impact report wiil not be required; how- ever a geo- technical report must be submitted in lieu of an EIR. Said report shall include the following information: 1. TEXT a. Purpose and scope of investigation b. Geologic setting C. Site description vnd conditions. Include information on geologic units, graded and filled areas, vegetation, existing structures, etc., that may affect the choice of investigative methods and the interpre- tation of data. d. Methods of Investigation 1. Review of published and unpublished literature and records con - cerning geologic units, faults, ground -water barriers, etc. 2. Interpretation of aerial photographs and other remotely sensed images to detect fault - relnted topography, vegetation and soil contrasts, and other lineaments of possible fault origin. i3. Surface observations, including mapping of geologic units and. structures, topographic features, springs, defermation of man- made structures, etc., both on and beyond the site if possible.

(Work Order 10421, dated January 17, 1979.) Dear Mr. Hofmar.: We have reviewed the subject report and submit herewith our continents and recommendations for your consideration. 1. Potential fault surface rupture at the site The last statement on Page 9 suggests potential surface rupture at the site along the Red Hill fault, which is not addressed in the conclusionary statements on Page 14. If the consultant is concerned about hazards due to faulting at or near the site, he should recommend appropriate mitigating measures. Conversely, if, in his judgement, hazards due to faulting are of .nticipated at the site, or are not deemed significant during the lifetime or the proposed structures, he should so state in his conclusions. 2. _Depth to Water Table The statement on Page 10 indicates the depth to the water s; � ,- GEOLOGY FOUNDATION ENGINEERING TESTING Very truly yours, CHARD MILLS AS OCIAT ichard B. 11i11s President CEG 8114 PIC14ARU HILLS AS4cIAT6S (2) table as one of the reasons making liquefaction unlikely. An estimate Qf'thi this should be included. 3. Slopes Is there a racommended maximum slope angle for probable cut and fill slopes which will be created during grading? 4. Expansive Soil An expansion index of 20 or greater is normally considered to require special design consideration. (Uniform Building Code Chapter 29 Section 2904). Since the expansion index of 23 is borderline, the consultant should state whether or not rein- forcement of footings and /or slabs on grade is required. . 5. Inspections Geologic inspection of all deeper excavations (fi.e. when deeper cuts are undercut or combined with wall footing excavations) is suggested to check for possible evidence of fault related rupture. 6. Site Plan The additional conflicting north arrow on the sita plan is confusing. Also the bearing indicated on the easterly boundary and the bearing on the westerly portion of the southern boundary -annot both be correct. The angle between the two lines extended is approximately 95 °, while the sum of the two bearings is approximately 44 °.

References: 1) Report by Pacific Soils Engineering, Inc. dated Jan. 17, 1979 (above subject property) (W.O. 10421). 2) Geotechnical Review: by Richard Mills Associates dated Jan. 24, 1979 (above subject property). Gentlemen: Presented herein is a response to the Geotechnical Review on the above subject property. Comments in this transmittal are keyed to numbered items ?n the review sheet (Reference 2). Item 11 Surface rupture due to faulting generally occurs within a relatively narrow zone (+ 100 ft.) along a fault trace. The Red Hill Fault trace displayed on the site vicinity map, lies some 400 feet south cf the property. The mapped geologic representation of th*,s fault indicates that its location and /or existence is conjectural and based prii-.c'—polly on indirect evidence. However, since the City of Rancho Cucamonga considers this structural feature a potential hazard it is deemed prudent to assume the possibility of a more conservative location for the fault trace. There- fore, assuming the most conservative parameters of seismic activity affecting a con- jectured, closer than indicated fault trace, then the previously discussed, remote probability exists for surface rupture near or on -site. These assumptions, however, 0 Item 04 y The on -site soils possess very low to low expansiveness when tested in accordance with UBC Standard 29 -2. Special reinforcement for expansive soils is not deemed necessary. Footing and slab reinforcement should be in accordance with structural considerations. Item 05 Preliminary design sketches by the project architect indicate that rear retaining wall excavations will range to approximately five (5) feet in vertical height. It is a required practice of this firm that the project soils engineer and /or project geologist inspect such excavation for pertinent soils or geologic data. 0 PACIFIC SOILS ENOWEERINO. tNC.

Detailed examination of the backhoe pits did not reveal offset soil horizons, abrupt discon- tinuities, or other suggestions of former on -site seismic activity. A discussion of our findings is presented on Page 7, Paragraph 4 of Reference (1) and reiterated on "age 14, (Conclusions and Recommendations) Item 1. Finally it is our considered opinion and so stated on Page 14, Item 3 of Reference 1 that the site does not appear tr; possess seismic hazzrd surface rupture potential and proposed land use Is geologically feasible. Item If 2 An estimated ground water table is 500 feet as indicated on a map prepared by the California Division of Mines and Geology, titled "Geologic Hazards in Southwestern San Bernardino County California" Special Report 113, dated 1976. l: Item #3 The t -7pographic plan attached to tNa preliminary soil report (Ref. 1) displays a conceptual rendering of the approximate proposed structurr location and attendant fill the nor are parking and access facilities. No cut or slopes are shown on plan graded slopes anticipated. Communication with the design project architect indicates that grading will be kept to a minimum In on effort to conform to the existing topog- raphy. If the detailed grading plans indicate cut or fill slopes they should be in accordance with UBC Section 2903(a). Item 04 y The on -site soils possess very low to low expansiveness when tested in accordance with UBC Standard 29 -2. Special reinforcement for expansive soils is not deemed necessary. Footing and slab reinforcement should be in accordance with structural considerations. Item 05 Preliminary design sketches by the project architect indicate that rear retaining wall excavations will range to approximately five (5) feet in vertical height. It is a required practice of this firm that the project soils engineer and /or project geologist inspect such excavation for pertinent soils or geologic data. 0 PACIFIC SOILS ENOWEERINO. tNC. • February 12, 1979 Work Order 10421 Item 16 Page 3 The additional north arrow shown adjacent to the easterly property boundary is a close approximation of true north.

PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA BY: Herman Rempel, Chairman ATTEST: Secretary of the Planning Commission I, JACK LAM, Secretary of the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, do hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was duly and regularly introduced, passed, and adopted by the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, at a regular meeting of the Planning Commission held on the 28th day of February, 1979, by the following vote to -wit: AYES: COMMISSIONERS: y, NOES: COtM1ISSIONERS: ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: 0 CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA STAFF REPORT Date: February 28, 1979 0 To: Planning Commission From. Jack L_., Director of Community Development Subject: GREE1'ROCK NURSERY - Request for an additional 3 month extension of time to cease operation of an illegal nursery; located on the north side of 19th Street, 400' west of Amethyst Street - Request submitted by Althouse and Bamber, representing Robert Shibata DESCRIPTION: Mr. Althouse, representing Robert Shibata, is requesting an additional 3 month extension of time to cease operation of the Greenock Nursery at the above described location. This request was made necessary . because the owners have been unable to find a new location for their business in the six months since the Planning Commission request [or their relocation. BACKGROUND: On August 23, 1978, the Planning Commission heard a request for a zone change from 7M -R -3 to A -1 on the subject property. The zone change would have enabled the owner to maintain a wholesale nursery at the site. The Planning Commission denied the request finding that the zone change would constitute "spot zoning ", and that 19th Street was unable to handle the increased traffic generated by the nursery. Staff was directed to work with the appli- cant to give him reasonable time to relocate his business (See Planning Com- mission minutes of August 23, 1978). Staff met with Mr. Shibata on August 28, 1978 and it was agreed that a six month. period to relocate his business (antil February 23) was more than reasonable. Mr. Shibata was told that legal action would be initiated if the business was not relocated by the February 23 deadline. During the six month period, staff sent two letters to Mr. Shibata reitering the City's intent to take legal action if the operation was not ceased by the deadline. (See attached letters dated December 4, 1978 and February 15, 1979) ANALYSIS: The additional three month extension was requested by Mr. Althouse to allow the owner to acquire new property within the city. A parcel has been located an-i placed into escrow. Mr. Althouse feels that all the necessary approvals will be attained within the three month period. The new location is on Archibald Avenue; the current zone is R -3 and the General Plan designation is high density residential. Since a nursery is incompatible with the General Plan designation, Mr. Shibata would have to request an amendment of the general plan, a zone change, and finally, obtain a site approval. General Plan amendment hearing dates have not been estab- lished yet. The first hearing may be several months away, and with all the other approvals required, the total length of time will easily exceed three months. ITEM "M" Page 2 Greenrock Nursery February 28, 1979 Staff feels six months was a more than reasonable length of time to find a new site. The fact that one was not found within the six month period does not have a bearing in this decision. As the Commission has found previously, the 19th Street site is not suited for a nursery in terms of compatibility, spot zoning and traffic. An extension of time would only aggravate the situation. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends denial of the request for an additional three month extension of time for the Greenrock Nursery and referral of this item to the City Attorney.

BACKGROUND: As the Commission will recall at the February 14 meeting, this item was continued for a redesign of the elevations to reflect a higher quality of design more in keeping with the character envisioned for Foothill Boulevard by the Planning Commission. On Tuesday, February 20, staff met with the applicant and Commissioners Tolstoy and Rempel to discuss the redesign of the elevations. At that meeting the applicant presented a plan which included the property adjacent to the subject site. The proposal now before the Commission is for 20,000 + square feet. It involves two buildings; one 6,400 + square feet and the second building 1,400 + square feet. The proposal is to have the 14,000 square foot building located along the southerly boundary and the other 6,400 square foot building located on the Ramona frontage. Two accesses off of the Foothill Boulevard frontage road are requested with no access off of Ramona. The buildings have been varied in depth to allow for an in -out action providing a good interplay of space. In reviewing the site plan with our Engineering Division we find that the proposal is not in conformance with the Adopted Access Policy. The Access Policy allows only one access off the frontage because of the proximity to the corner and the adjacent driveway. Access should be located 100' from the back of the curb radius of Foothill and Ramona. The width of the access should be at least -35' wide. Other than this problem we find the site plan to be in conformance with the codes and policies of the city. We have not seen any elevations as of the writing of this report. We will provide the Commission with an oral report at the time of the meeting regarding the revised elevations. Written conditions of approval will be available at the meeting regarding the revised elevations and site plan. If the Commission feels uncomfortable with the quickness in which this item has returned to you, and the manner in which it has been returned, we suggest that the item then be held over to the March 14 meeting. our opinion at the time of the writing of this report that should approve the project as revised and conditioned.

Y 0 PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -4- AUGUST 23, 1978 Jack Lam stated that since the zone change and s tie approval are directly related that they will be presented concurrently. He presented the staff report in detail which is on file in the Planning Division. Mr._Lam reported that this request was submitted an attempt to make the existing illegal use legal. He stated that by granting such a change would be inconsistent with the proposed General Plan and would create significant traffic problems. He asked Llo d Hubbs to present the traffic implications. Lloyd Hubbs presented the traffic report. He informed the Commissioners that 19th Street•is a State Highway and the major east - west arterial which passes to the northern section of the City. He further stated that the Engineering Department recommended that access to 19th Street be limited to as few openings as possible and that no additional commercial type zoning be allowed. Commissioner Garcia opened the public hearing for comments from the applicant and other interested persons. Charles Althaus spoke on behalf of the appl cant for the z:,..e change. He stated that on the west side of the property there is a refrigeration business and on the south side it is zoned as A -1. This nursery does business on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday in the days only. He further stated that on the east there is property that possibly may be acquired which is adjacent to the present property and, therefore, have traffic entering from Amethyst instead of 19th Street. Lloyd flubbs stated that Amethyst would be a solut on to the traffic problem but this would still be "spot zoning" and could cause future difficulty. Gary Hall, the west property owner, asked what h_e_c_ou_rcFdo to protect himself if this is approved to a commercial area, especially about machinery noise. Commissioner Garcia informed Mr. Hall that if "spot zoning" fs allowed some sort of provisions to protect the property owners would be address- ed. Robert Shibato, one of the owners of the property, clarified that the large equipment that had been on the property belonged to one of the partners and he is no longer affiliated with them. His business is offering plants from the grower to the public. Robert Shibato informed the Planning Commission that his entire family is in the plant business. They have a business located in Chino where these' 0 0 ti PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -5- AUGUST 23, 1978 Plants are grown and brought over to 19th Street and sold. He further informed the Commissioners that they do raise ground cover and bedding plants at the nursery. Commissioner Garcia closed the public hearing after no Y-urther comments from the public. j MOTION: Upon motion by Commissioner Tols oy, seconded by Commissioner Jones, and unan mously carried it was voted to deny Zone Change No. 99 -66 and adopt Resolution No. 78 -03• wit h an amendment to the resolution to include an additional finding which states "that the proposed zone change does not conform to the ' proposed General Plan."
