Review of project to date
ABSTRACT: As we all are aware, the Victoria Planned Community text and
map has been with us for some time. Either under submittal or through an
informal review process within the Community. As a reminder, there have
been six meetings on Victoria. The dates are listed below:
9-16-80 - General kickoff meeting - establishment of review process
9-29-80 - Discussion of Land Use
10-11-80 - Discussion of Victoria and the Etiwanda Area
10-29-80 - Discussion of Circulation
11-10-80 - Discussion of parks and open space
11-24-80 - Discussion of review process and continuatico of review
to January 1981 .
This memo contains a listing of the items which has arisen at each of these
meetings on Victoria. Also please find attached, all of the reports that
have been prepared for the Victoria Planned Community. Recommendation will
be to review all of the items listed to verify that all of the issues have
been considered and to give guidance to the applicant as to the additional
information required. We have also attached a proposed schedule to con-
sideration for approval of Victuoria Planned Community.which the Commission
should indicate their desires for finalization.
DISCUSSION: To date, we have reviewed land use, circulation, parks and
open space and have presented reports on infrastructure and design criteria.
At each of the meetings on land use, circulation, parks and open space,
there were suggested conditions included. The Commission, after reviewing
each of the topics, there discussed each of the conditions suggested. In
some cases, the conditions were modified and in others, conditions were
added. In each of the meetings on the topics there were additional issues
raised that were not answered by the text covered by conditions suggested
or answered by the map. We have complied for the Commission's information
and use, those issues that have been raised that have not yet beer. answered.

Victoria Planned Community _2_
February 2, 1981
LAND USE
- Commercial usage along Etiwanda Avenue (already addressed by the Sedway/
Cooke General Plan)
- More detailed and regional related uses i .e. types
- Victoria Street not to connect to Etiwanda Avenue
- Regional related uses to Etiwanda Avenue (some examples should be shown
relative to site plans)
- Buffering along Base Line Road, i.e. residential uses and commercial uses
(example: site plans should be shown)
- Landscape buffer at the Temple (mention was made when land adjacent to the
Temple was thought to be within the planned community that there should be
landscape buffering from any new use to the Temple. Now the Temple land
is only contiguous to the planned community boundaries on the western
property line)
- Phasing of regional related uses from Foothill Boulevard north to Base
Line Road
- Treatment of Highland Avenue relative to architectural character and land-
scape character to simulate the "rural atmosphere"
- Precise planned community boundaries showing all property that is owned
by William Lyon Company within the planned community and any other property
that is consented to be a co-applicant
- Adjustment of densities and land use patterns within the planned communities
relative to General Plan changes
- Density bonuses and affordable housing percentages
CIRCULATION
- Treatment of the emergency lane of traffic for Victoria parkway
- Indication of what streets would be used for regional shopping center access
- Efforts should be made to minimize traffic through the Etiwanda Community
- Indicate a loop street plus or minus 1 ,000 feet from Etiwanda Avenue in
ordar to take traffic off of Etiwanda Avenue
t ;
;�.-:•
a,
Victoria Planned Community -2- February 2, 1981
` PARKS AND OPEN SPACE
- Indicate areas of lake usage for boating, fishing, etc. What about "con-
e cession stands" around the lake. How will these be handled?
- Will there be any trails to Etiwanda Avenue and from Etiwanda community
i
to the lake edge? Where will they be? Show examples.
- How much land is contained within the lake edge and the lake itself.
What about the issue of radiation from the power lines (this should be
discussed in the draft environmental report).
c.
- What about the active parkland versus passive parkland? Advantages, dis-
advantages of each.
- What credit should be given for the lakes, for the trails, for any other
open space usage.
- Where should the additional five acres of park land go to, if still
necessary after adjustments in the General Plan densities?
- Where will the developer obtain the water to fill the lakes and to keep
them at a reasonable level?
We hope that we have gathered together all of the items which were discussed at
the various neetings on Victoria Planned Community. The Commission should
review each of the items listed above in the three categories, to determine if
they are accurately represented and if all of the issues raised by the Commission
are contained within the list. Our anticipation would be that at the February
e, 26, 1981 meeting the applicant would have answered most, if not all of the
issues contained within tiis report and Staff would have the opportunity to
make recommendations on the applicant's proposals.
We still have Infrastructure and Design, and Implementation and DEIR to review.
It would be one suggestion that the Planning Commission reserve March 12, March
26, and April 9 to complete the Planning Commission reivew of the Victoria
Planned Community. These meetings would be on Thrusday night beginning at 7:00
p.m.
RECO14MENDATION: It is recommended that the Planning Commission reivew the
list contained within this report. Add or subtract to those lists as may be
necessary, and clarify the items they wish to have brought back to them in
the way of answers *r solutions for the February 26 special meeting. Also, it
is recommended that the Planning Commission adopt March 12, March 26, and April
t 9 as review dates for the completion of the review of Victoria Planned Community.

TO: Members of the Planning Commission 1977
FROM: Barry K. Hogan, Senior Planner
SUBJECT: Victoria Community Plan - Infrastructure and Design Criteria
ABSTRACT_: This report covers the topics of Infrastructure and Design Cri-
teria. Infrastructure refers to the public services that must be provided
to the project such as sewers, water, natural gas, electricity, telephone,
flood control and fire. Des`.gn Criteria encompasses Victoria Parkway, land-
scape standards, solar access, site planning standards, landscape grading
standards, and road standards. As with previous reports, after the dis-
cussion of each topic, there are suggested conditions for the Commission.
DISCUSSION - INFRASTRUCTURE
Much of the discussion of infrastructure topics are listed in the Draft
Environmental Impact Report on pages 104-115. The Draft Environmental Im-
pact Report discusses water supply, sewage disposal , telephone service,
electrical service, gas service. Of parti'calar concern in the past has
been the adequacy of sewer supply, The Draft Environmental Impact Report
(DEIR) discusses several alternative plans for waste treatment and disposal .
The Day Creek food control channel traverses through the project north to
south. Currently, this channel is unimproved and no plans exist for im-
provement in the near future. Pages 47-51 of the DEIR discusses the hy-
drology and flood control for the Victoria area. The DEIR discusses the
�. alternatives for accepting or diverting upstream flows, the alternatives
for providing protection from a major levee outbreak during a major storm
occurrence, alternative approaches for site drainage systems, and alter-
native methods of funding flood control and drainage. The hydrology and
flood control issues discussed within the DEIR indicate that there is a
major concern with the flood control of the Day Creek channel .
Prior to the submittal of the Victoria Plan, the City contracted with
L. D. King to prepare a study of the Day Creek channel from its source in
the foothills down its course into Rive'rsid.e County. Any solution of the
drainage problem of Day Creek must be done on a regional-wide basis in-
cluding the City of Rancho Cucamonga, the City of Ontario, the Counties
of San Bernardino and Riverside, and any developers which may contribute
to the flow through the development of their property. Limited development
can occur within the drainage area of Day Creek, but there must be appro-
priate improvements to the Day Creek channel at the time of those develop-
ments. Currently no solution has been selected as yet; however, the City
Engineer is confident that a solution will be reached that is acceptable
to all parties involved. The City Engineer will be available to comment
a� on the flood control issue at the Monday night meeting.

The final topic Linder infrastructure is fire protection. Although fire
protection is more of a community facility, its discussion fits best under
infrastructure with the topics selected for review with Victoria. Fire-
station No. 3 is located on Base Line Avenue east of Rochester Avenue in
a temporary station on County-owned property leased by the Foothill Fire
Protection District. The DEIR on page 79 indicates, under impact summary,
that new fire facilities will be planned and located based upon adopted
plans for Victoria and adjacent properties. Fire protection will be a
mz': >r concern in this development due to the recent financial situation
which the Foothill Fire Protection District finds 'Itself in. Special
consideration and care should be given to the provision of adequate fire
services for this development and existing development in the vicinity.
SUGGESTED CONDITIONS
1 . The developer shall participate through financial contributions
and/or construction of storm drain facilities within the Day
Creek and that drainage area in accordance with a to be adopted
master plan for Day Creek. Development will be allowed to take
place within the drainage area so long as flood protection is
provided by the developer to the satisfaction of the City Engineer
and/or the San Bernardino Flood Control District.
2. Prior to any substantial development in any of the four villages,
an alternative for sewage treatment shall be selected by the City
and the Cucamonga County Water District.
3. Adequate fire protection through either expansion of Fire Station
No. 3 or the addition of another fire station or the relocation
of the existing fire station shall be provided by the Foothill
Fire District with the expansion, addition or relocation costs
paid for by the developer.
DESIGN CRITERIA
Under the discussion of Design Criteria, there are six categories: Victoria
Parkway, landscape standards, solar access standards, site planning standards,
landscape grading standards, and road standards.
vICTORIA PARKWAY
Page 127 of the Victoria Community Plan text describes fully the basic design
concept for Victoria Parkway. Victoria Parkway is the key element for the
overall plan for the planned community. It is provided as a continuous open
space element that ties together the fragmented parcels of land that currently
exist within the planning area. The parkway is a linear park that is proposed
to have a two-lane road within it. The right-of-way of the parkway varies in
accordance with the adjacent land uses. Pages 128-129 of the text give the
basic design concepts for the parkway. Where the parkway passes adjacent to
open sapces, the right-of-way will narrow. Where the parkway passes adjacent
to residential areas, the parkway right-of-way will widen. The minimum width
of right-of-way is 120 feet with the maximum width of right-of-way, 180 feet.
Y
November 24, 1980
Victoria Community Plan - Infrastructure and Design Criteria
Page Three
The parkway includes a bike trail , hiking trail and equestrian trail .
Relative to the planting concept, the plan proposes three basic trees: pines,
which will be located on the high ground, sycamores, as a transition tree,
and alders on the low ground. Of the three trees proposed, the pines are
the only evergreen. The use of the alders on the low ground will be remi-
niscent of a riparian area ?s would be the sycamort:: .
Victoria Parkway is not proposed to be a flat roadway but will be a split
level road with one direction lower than the other. direction, -thus providing
added interest and taking up grade at the same time. Pages 130-131 of the
text indicate in detail the planting concept and the grading concept. For
a more precise Indication of right-of-way width, please refer to pages 134-135
of the text.
It should be noted that the median island in Victoria Parkway contains an
equestrian trail . The text does not indicate that the equestrian trail will
begin at Deer Creek, but we believe that it is the developers intent, thus,
providing a connection to the regional trail system. The equestrian trail
at each intersection transitions to the street corner for crossing within the
crosswalks to be provided at the signalized intersections. Where there are
no signalized intersections, the equestrian trail will cross mid-street.
The trail in the median will continue on Victoria Parkway to two outlets.
One will be Victoria Street outletting to Etiwanda Avenue and the other will
be the Pacific Electric right-of-way, a proposed master planned trail . The
text only indicates the outlet onto Victoria Street, but in conversations
with the developer, he indicates there is no problem in extending the trail
to the Pacific Electric right-of-way.
Pages 144-149 illustrate the typical edge conditions and cross sections for
Victoria Parkway.
SUGGESTED CONDITIONS
1 . The equestrian trail contained within Victoria Parkway shall begin
at Deer Creek and terminate at the Pacific Electric right-of-way.
Specific design of the trail shall be subject to City review.
Equestrian fences, grading, soil samples, may be required.
LANDSCAPE STANDARDS
The applicant proposes to use drought-resistant plan material where possible.
Windrow style planting to accentuate the traditional windrow character of
Etiwanda and to provide protection from wind and an Entry Hierarchy Plan
in order to provide a sense of place, and of transition from one land use
to another. The Entry Hierarchy Plan is contained on pages 156-157 of the text.
Typical edge conditions are depicted on pages 160-167. Particular concern
is with the Milliken-Highland-Base Line-Foothill sections and residential
land uses. There is an indication of a median within the street; however,
no indication of any trees within that median. Both the section and the
r,
planned view lack trees within the median. We would suggest that either
y:?
November 24, 1980
Victoria Community Plan - Infrastructure and Design Criteria
Page Four
accent trees be added within the median or street trees at appropriate
spacing .
The section of land uses indicates an 8 foot minimum foot minimum for peri-
meter landscape treatment in parking areas. We suggest that 10 feet is a
more appropriate standard. Additionally, the second graphic on page 160
on the bottom right-hand corner needs to have an indication of where the
property line is.
On page 161 , on the northern section of Day Creek Blvd., the street median
should depict trees. On the south section, the landscaped area from the
parking lot to the property line should be 10 feet not the 8 feet shown.
On page 162 the same comment on the Miller-Victoria loop for the median and
the parking lot. On page 163, the section depicted indicates that there
will be a natural equestrian trail in the median from Victoria Groves Park
to Victoria Street. It should indicate from Deer Creek through Victoria
Groves Park to Victoria Street and to the Pacific Electric right-of-way.
SOLAR ACCESS STANDA.^!DS - :3ITE PLANNING STANDARDS
The solar access standards illustrate the desirable site plan relationships
in providing passive solar access to residential dewllings within the Vic-
toria Planned Community.
RESIDENTIAL SITE PLANNING STANDARDS
Pages 180-19G depict the various types of A, B, C, D. E, and F, Residential
Land Uses. Each are typical examples and do not necessarily represent the
precise development for any particular area but a concept. Page 184, B land
use, minimal lots 7200 square feet, indicates a 4-foot walk on one side only
within that land use. Throughout the B land uses there is listed a 4-foot
walk on one side only. The Commission may wish to consider this issue to
determine whether or not sidewalks should be on both sides or only on ore
side of the street. Additionally, you may want to make your decision in
accordance with the minimum square footages proposed. Throughout pages
184-196, we have suggested additions and changes to add consistency in each
of the typical concepts rather than list these twice for the Planning Com-
mission, wp will list them in the suggested conditions.
Some additional items which the Commission may wish to consider are the re-
location of these pariicular graphic concepts to the Part III Regulations
and Standards section. The reason for this suggestion is that many of the
explanations detailed on each of the pages contained within the residential
site planninG standards arP repeated in Part III of the text.
SUGGESTED CONDITIONS
1 . Page 184, add the word minimum in the setbacks paragraph under
"garage" .
2. Page 185, the paragraph setbacks under side yard, add the wo^ds
" "each side" . The new phrase would read "side yard; 5-foot minimum
each side."
vr`i:
November 24, 1980
Victoria Community Plan - Infrastructure and Design Criteria
Page Five
3. Page 186, directly under the graphic, the words variable height
fence by developer on Victoria Parkway property line should indicate
that fence height shall not exceed 5 feet from the highest finished
rg ade.
4. Under setbacks garage, add the words "requires garage door openers"
after 5-8 feet and add the word "minimum" after 18 feet.
5. Under side yard indicate 5-foot for each side Yard rather than
10 feet between buildings.
6. On page 187 indicate ir. paratheses under the graphic after the
phrase developer to provide fencing on corner lots and adjacent
to community trail system "(see page 189)".
7. Under setbacks, garage, add the words "requires garage doer openers"
after 5 to 8 feet. Also indicate what width sidewalks and location
of said sidewalks.
8. Page 188, indication of minimum parking requirements may require
a change in tine Rancho Cucamonga Parking Ordinance. Should the
ordinance not change, the indication of minimum parking standard
should be amended to be consistent with current code requirements.
Also there is no indication of the kinds of sidewalks or location
of sidewalks.
9. Page 188 under setbacks garage, add "requires garage door openers"
after 5 to 8 feet.
10. Page 189, the second note from the top of the page add the words
"5-foot maximum" so the phrase will read, 5-foot maximum back yard
fence adjacent to trail by developer.
11 . Page 189, the second note from the top of the page add the words
5-foot maximum" so the phrase will read, 5-foot maximum back yard
fence adjacent to trail by developer .
12. Page 190 under garage setback, add "requires garage door openers"
after 5 to 8 feet and add the words "or sidewalk" after curb so
the phrase will read garage setback: 5 to 8 feet (requires garage
door openers) from back of curb or sidewalk. The indication under
garage setback of the parking requirement is in excess of what
current code requirements are and should indicate code requirements.
13. Page 193 under the graphic indicates minimum of one covered parking
space per dwelling, additional spaces as specified in Part III .
This requirement is different from the existing parking code and
should be consistent.
14. Under the graphic there is an indication where sound attenuation
walls are required they may not be needed to be continuous but may
work satisfactorily when broken or staggered. The words "however,
in all cases these must be consistent with the adopted Noise Or-
dinance" should be added.

Page Six
15. Rage 196 under the first graphic. the words "automatic garage
door openers required" should be added after 5 to 8 feet.
LANDSCAPE GRADING STANDARDS
The applicant proposes contour grading and grading of open space to create
views.and take up grade. All of the graphics illustrated on pages 202-206
are of excellent depiction of the kinds of grading standards that are pro-
mulgated by the Grading Committee and the Planning Commission of the City
of Rancho Cucamonga .
ROAD STANDARDS
Or. pages 212-215 the applicant proposes road standards for Victoria Planned
Community. Except for Victoria Parkway, the road standards for Victoria
should be consistent with the road standards for other areas within Rancho
Cucamonga . The City Engineer will present at the Monday night meeting, the
proposed standards for roads within Rancho Cucamonga.
SUGGESTED CONDITION:
All road standards shall conform to those of the City of Rancho Cucamonga
except for Victoria Parkway.
CONCLUSION
As a reminder to the Planning Commission, the suggested conditions contained
within this report are not refined to the point where they can be specifically
applied to Victoria Planned Community. Tney are to be used as a guide for
staff in preparing final conditions for consideration by the Planning Com-
mission when the review process culminates. In order for staff to have ade-
quate direction to proceed on to the next categories and to prepare final
conditions for consideration, we would recommend, if the Commission concurs
with the suggested conditions, that they be adopted to provide for staf"s
preparation of final conditions for consideration. Should you have any
questions, please do not hesitate to contact this office.

FROM: Barry K. Hogan, City Planner
SUBJECT: VICTORIA PLANNED COMMUNITY
ABSTRACT: As the Commission will recall dt tiie meetinc of September 16, 1980
we discussed tine areas of :•eview for the Vit-Loria Plan. Land Use has been
discussed and Circulation,and Parks and Open Space are tie next two items sub-
ject to discussion. Included previously in your packet cf information is a
report. from the City Engineer and a report from the Oiret.tor of Community
Services. Contained hevein are recommended conditions f ,r Circulation and
Parks and Open Space.
We would request that the Planning Commission consider tie next categories
for review. There are five categories left .
1 . Infastructure
2. Design Criteria
3. Regulations (zoning or development regulations)
4. Implementation
5. D.E.I.R. (Draft Environmental Impact Report)
It would be our suggestion that Infastructure and Desigr Criteria be the next
two items of discussion. We have reserved the Forum at tie Lion's Building
for October 29, 1980 from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. We would like conformation
of the next two items to be reviewed and of the proposes; neeting date at your
October 11, 1980 review for Victoria discussion. We have reviewed the report.
by the City Engineer and recommend the following seven conditions for circulation.
1 . Rochester Avenue shall be extended northerly to connet:t with Victoria Park-
way.
2. Hiohlan6 Avenue shall be constructed at a 64 fool, curl to curb section
to accomodate 5 lanes of traffic, specific alignment, and design shall be
to the satisfaction of the City Engineer.

TO: Planning Commission a
1977
FROM: Jack Lam, Director of Community Development
BY: Barry K. Hogan, City Planner
SUBJECT: P.C. 80-01 - VICTORIA - WILLIAM LYON COMPANY: TOPIC LAND USE
ABSTRACT: As the Planning Commission will recall at your last meeting of
9-16-80, we established the review period of two weeks between meetir.•s with
the first meeting to begin September 25, 1980 covering 1) land use 21 ;ir-
culation and 3) parks/open space. The second meeting was to be non-specific
as to topic and was to be held in the Etiwanda area on a Saturday. We have
reserved the Etiwanda Community Room on Etiwanda Avenue for Saturday, October
11 , 1980 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
From our report of September 16, 1980 you can see the topics to be discussed
under the land use portion of the Victoria Review. They are:
. Statistical summary
. Land use analysis
. Four villages comparisons
This report will analyze the specific sections of the plan arld text as they
relate to land use and provide suggested conditions of approval for the
problem areas. It must be remembered that this is part of a larger whole
and should not stand alone.
DISCUSSION: The stipulations of the Planned Community Ordinance requires
the applicant to:
1 . Design and develop all uses in the Planned Community in a
manner comparable with and competitive to existing and
potential development in the general vicinity.
2. All development shall relate harmoniously to the topography
and make su4table provisions for preservation of water courses,
drainage areas, wooded areas, rough terrain and similar natural
features.
3. Submit a development plan identifying areas in the plan,
indicating scheduling for Idevelopment.
The applicant has provided the basic material necessary for land use in
accordance with the Ordinance.

LAND USE ANALYSIS: In order to evaluate each of the land uses proposed for
Victoria this section will proceed in the same order as the Statistical Summary.
1 . Commercial : The location of the Regional Center has been established
as Planning Commission and City Council preference at previous meetings
regarding the proposed General Plan. The size of the Center is determined
by the ultimate projected service demands of the Region. In this case the
Regional Center developer, Ernest Hahn, proposes six major department stores
with related facilities on 100+ acres. The Regional Center anchors Victoria
Planned Community. The details of the specific design have not been worked
out at this point in the Planning process and will require further consider-
ation by the City at a later date.
Suugested Condom: prior to consideration of specific designs for the
Regional Center a focused E.I.R. shall be prepared on the isso—c of traffic,
aesthetics and long and short term impacts of the proposed project.
2. Regional Related Commercial : It appears that there is an in ordinate
amount of Regions Related (R/R) land use. However, in researching other
Regional Centers of this type there are large amounts of R/R useage within
close proximity. Because it is difficult to predict precisely the appro-
priate amount of RJR to designate for this area. Page 150-156 of the Victoria
DEIR indicates a range of acreage projected based on projected future demand
i.e. 111-246 ac. ; the Plan provides 210 ac. Because this is such a unknown
area we suggest that 210 acres is appropriate at this time, but should be
reviewed periodically to insure that our projections are still accurate.
Suggested Condition: The development process and regional demand for
Ile Regions Related area shall be periodically reviewed to determine the
continued viability of the amount of acreage proposed. This review shall
not be more than three years apart and begin after the opening of the
Regional Center.
3. Village Commercial Centers V.C.C. : There are four V.C.C. proposed.
1)—Soouthwest corner of Highland and Milliken; 2) Northeast corner of Base
Line and Milliken; 3) Southwest corner of Day Creek and Highland; and 4)
Northwest corner of Base Line and Victoria Parkway. As stated in the
Interim General Plan for Rancho Cucamonga Neighborhood Centers or V.C.C.
draw from a population service area of 10,000+ people. In locating V.C.C.
the City should look at how best these centers will serivice Victoria and the
adacent areas. The Center at the southwest corner of Highland and Milliken
is located well to service Victoria and areas north of Highland. The Center
located at the Southwest corner of Day Creek and Highland is located well to
' service Victoria and north and east Etiwanda areas. The Center at the north-
west corper of Base Line and Victoria Parkway is a smaller Center a ;d will
service those areas missed by the Previous two and also the Etiwanda area
Immediately east of the planned community. The Center at the northeast
4,
corner of Base Line and Milliken should be elimnated for the following reasons:

P.C. 80-01
Page 5
As the Commission is aware, there is a Planned Community proposed
by Lewis Homes south of the Victoria Planned Community. Within
Terra Vista there are approximately 2.50 Neighborhood Shopping
Centers proposed. In order to provida adequate service radius for
the shopping centers proposed in the Terra Vista area the Milliken
and Base Line site on Victoria should be reverted to a residential
land use. Whether or not Terra Vista developes the proposed General
Plan will indicate various residential land uses necessitating
service by Neighborhood Commercial Centers. At this point in time
it is known that approximately 8,000 people could reside within the
boundaries of the Terra Vista Planned Community with the present
traffic system. Additionally, because of the adjacency of Victoria,
and the adjacency of already developed land to Terra Vista Planned
Community, approximately two centers would be located on the proposed
General Plan for the Terra Vista Planned Community.
4 drt P� The Village Commercial Shopping Center proposed
at orner of Milliken and Base Line Road shall be eliminated
and replaced with D. Land Use.
COMMUNITY FACILITIES
Schools: Each of the three predominant residential villages; Victoria
Groves, Victoria Vineyards, and Victoria Windrows, are anchored by
Elementary School Facilities and a park. Each of the schools and parks
are located along Victoria Parkway, which is a linear corrector having
both equestrian and biking/hiking trails. The locations of the schools
and the size of the facilities are subject to the approval of the school
districts. In the case of the school in Victoria Groves it would be subject
to the approval of the Alta Loma School District. In the case of all
remaining schools they would be subject to the approval of the Etiwanda
School District. The quantity of schools required is also determined by
the School District. The Victoria Planners have verified the number of
schools desired by the School Districts based upon the projected population
to be generated from the development as proposed. Should there be any
drastic change in the number of dwelling units proposed for this develop-
ment, the number of schools proposed would have to be reevaluated by the
School District.
Suagesled Condition: Prior to the approval of any tract within any of
the villages containing proposed school facilities the School District
involved must consent in writing to the need and location for school
facility. Additionally, the sites reserved for schools shall be sufficient
in size for the needs of the school District.
Potential Civic Uses : Within the Victoria area there is an existing
Fire Station located northerly of Base Line Road, near Day Creek. The
Foothill Fire Protection District provides the service to the project area.
Area "S" on the Victoria Community Plan is indicated as potential Civic
Center uses. This could be a Transit Station, a Police sub-station, or
used for expansion of fire facilities. There are two chruch sites proposed
within Victoria. One is in the Victoria Vineyards along Victoria Parkway.
Planning Commission ' ting (•
September 29, 1980
P.C. 80-Oi

The second site is adjacent to Heublein on Base Line Road near Day
Creek.
PARKS, LAKES, AND COMMUNITY TRAILS
There are three parks proposed. Dne in each of the residential villages:
Victoria Groves has the Groves Park, Victoria Vineyards has the Vineyards
Park, and Victoria Windrows has the Windrows Park. Included in the Windrows
Park is a proposed Lake. These parks are approximately 10 acres in size each.
Additionally, the plan proposes Victoria Lakes within the village_ of Victoria
Lakes. These two lake - encompassed 40 acres of surface area and Lake edge.
Also, a major feature of the plan, is Victoria Linear Park.encompassing 35
acres. Victoria Linear Park serves as a greenbelt connector of all of the
villages within Victoria Planned Community. Additionally, all of the park
and school facilities are located along its length. Within the Planned
Community there are approximately 5 acres of trails proposed. The trails
lead to and from the various residential areas to the schools and parks. What
is depicted on the community plan are the major community trails. There may
be smaller trails that would feed into these major trails. There is a private
community recreation facility proposed at the terminus of Victoria parkway at
the northern end of the Lakes. Membership would be available to people
within Victoria and to other people additionally. It is not a mandatory
requirement of the residence of Victoria that they join the Recreation Center.
UNIMPROVED OPEN SPACE
There are two Southern California Edison corridors running north and south through
the eastern end of Victoria. They encompass approximately 160 acres and are
proposed for a variety of uses. Additionally, Day Creek Channel runs parallel
to and west of the Edison rights-of-way. It encompasses approximately 100 acres
of right-of-way. The last area of unimproved open space is the east-west Pacific
Electric right-of-way running approximately 1 ,000 feet north of Base Line Road.
Along this right-of-way is proposed a local trail on the proposed General Plan
for the City of Rancho Cucamonga.
ROADS
There are a number of roads proposed for Victoria Planned Community totalling
235 acres.
EXISTING LX4D USES
iy1
There are approximately 40 acres of existing land uses that will most likely
remain in their present condition. They are the existing lumber yard at the
terminus of Rochester north cf Base Line, the Heublein wine facility near
.i.
Victoria Parkway and Base Line R;,ad and the Nichiren Shoshu Temple on Etiwanda
Avenue.

RESIDENTIAL LAND USES
The densities of residential land uses proposed within Victoria range from
a low of two units an acre to a high of 45 units per acre. There are six
different types of residential land useages ranging from "A" to "F" and
increasing in density. Of the 2,150 acres within Victoria there are 1 ,035
acres in residential land uses.
The "A" catagory: "Windrow Residential" encompasses 155 acres and lies primarily
along the Etiwanda Avenue frontage. This land use was proposed as a buffer and
a transition to the low density Windrow Residential land uses shown on the
Interim General Plan.
The "B" Land Uses encompass a range of three to seven dwelling units per acre
and total 530 acres of land within Victoria.. The "B" Land Use varies in lot
size from 7,200 sq. ft. to 3,000 sq. ft. and in residential dwelling types
from single family residential to patio homes to O-Lotline homes.
The "C" Lard Use ranges from seven to fifteen dwelling units per acre encompassing
175 acres totally and is primarily townhouse and fourplex developments.
The "D" Land Use ranges in density from fifteen to twenty-five dwelling units
per acre encompassing 105 acres and is characterized by garden apartment or
condominium development.
The "E" Land Use ranges from twenty-five to thirty-five dwelling units per
acre and encompasses approximately 50 acres of land. They are primarily
low rise apartments or condominiums.
The "F" Land Use ranges in density from thrity-five to forty-five dwelling
units per acre encompassing approximately 10 acres of land and is characterized
by high-rise apartments or condominiums.
The applicant has tried to arrange the various land uses within Victoria to
get a balance of dwelling types within each village. The "E" and "F" Land
Uses are located near the intersection of Victoria Parkway and Base Line Road
or around the north Victoria Lake. In all cases the various land uses whether
they be identical or different land uses are seperated from one another by
either a road or a trail .
As the Commission will retail , there has been much concern expressed over the
provision of affordable housing within the City of Rancho Cucamonga. The proposed
Housing Element of the General Plan suggests that 15% of the dwellings within the
City of Rancho Cucamonga be within the affordable range. On page 225 of the
Victoria Text the applicant suggests that within the Victoria Community Planned
area 10% of the dwellings will be delivered to low and moderate income families.
Addttionally, these dwellings would be disbursed throughout Victoria so that
each village has approximately 10% of the homes in the affordable range. Afford-
able housing would include a mix of attached/ detached and mobile family dwellings.
We suggest that the Victoria Planned Community increase the amount of affordable
housing to 150M within each village.
Planning Commission ( iting
September 29, 1980
P.C. 80-0I
Page 8
Suggested Condition: The Victoria Planned Community shall contain 15%
of its dwelling units as affordable housing as defined on page 225 of the
Victoria Planned Community text.
One of the requirements of the Planned Community Ordinance is to establish
a maximum amount of dwelling units allowable within a planned community area.
This is established by taking the boundaries of the property and deline,`4-ig
those on the General Plan. The land uses are then plano,)ieter and ca _ions
made to produce the final dwelling unit count. Since a portion of thi ,dn
lies within the alternative areas of the Interim General Plan, this calculation
will be forthcoming to the Planning Commission after November 1 , at which time
we anticipate the proposed General Plan to be available for public review.
Staff has initially done some calculations based upon the traffic capacity
of the streets within Victoria Planned Community and can assure the Commission
that the optimum proposed by the applicant of 9,850 dwelling units will fit
within the range of allowable dwelling units for this particular area.
FOUR VILLAGF,S COMPARISONS: There are four 01 1ages within the community
of Victoria. Victoria Groves, Victoria Vineyards , Victoria Windrows and
Victoria Lakes. Each village is designed with a focus and a connection to
each other village. For example: the focus of Victoria Groves is the
Elenenatary School and park. It is connected to Victoria Vineyard via Victoria
Parkway. The focus of Victoria Vineyards is the Elementary School facilities
park and church. Victoria Vineyards is then connected to Victoria Windrows
via Victoria Parkway. The focus of Victoria Windrows is again the Elementary
School and park. It is connected to Victoria Lakes via 'Victoria Parkway.
The focus of Victoria Lakes is the lakes and the Regional Shopping Center.
Of the four villages three are primarily residential , ie. Victoria Groves,
Victoria Vineyards, and Victoria Windrows. The village of Victoria Lakes
is primarily the Regional Shopping Center and Regional Related uses such as
cemmercial and office. There are some residential land uses located adjacent
to the north Victoria ' akes. The relationship of the land uses within the
Victoria Planned Comp .city are lied together well by use of the Victoria
Parkway. Because of the unusual L shape, it is necessary that each of the
geographic areas defined by the major streets such as Milliken, Base Line,
Highland, and the Flood Control Channel have a central focus. The problem
of relating each of the villages to the community is done through the use
of the Victoria Linear Parkway. And the introduction of the regional center
to the community is also accomplished through the use of the Victoria Lakes.
CONCLUSION

text presented by the applicant fully delineates each of the land uses proposed
within Victoria Planned Community in addition to each of the feateres and
amenities proposed.

U >
DATE: September 26, 1980 1977
TO: Jack Lam, Director, Community Development
FROM: Lloyd B. Hubbs, City Engineer
SUBJECT: Victoria Community Plan Circulation
The Engineering Division has completed its primary level of analysis on the
Circulation Plan for the proposed Victoria Community. As a result of this
anaiysis and the findings of the Circulation Element of the General Plan,
the proposed circulation, with some modification will be adequate to handle
the intensity of development proposed. In order to place our circulation
analysis in prospective, it is necessary to place the Victoria Plan within
the context of the overall General Plan process and in particular, the General
P'an Circulation Element.
IPLANIJING PROCESS
As you are aware, the overall Gereral Plan Circulation Element and the specific
roadway linkage system was only resolved for presentation to the Citizens
Advisory Commission within the past few weeks. This plan was necessary to
provide the general background traffic network and traffic volumes upon which
to relate the Victoria Plan. Because land use ;parameters for the proposed
plan are at levels compatible with the Victoria proposal , the General Plan
study basically served to verify the Circulation needs of Victoria.
I would like to point out that the Traffic Analysis contained in the E.I.R.
evaluation of the Victoria proposal was prepared sometime ago and was based
properly on background traffic assumptions related to the interim General Plan
in effect at that time. In order to update the parameters of this analysis,
we were required to await the development of the General Plan Circulation
Studies and in particular, the traffic projections from the City's Traffic
Model . These results have been obtained and as stated previously, show that
the basic transportation framework proposed by Vitoria is adequate to service
the development.
DETAILED CIRCULATION AMLYSIS
Detailed analysis of the traffic needs , although not totally complete at this
time, indicate that there are several levels of concern that will require
further study. Some of these concerns should be resolved at the specific plan
level where as others will require detailed traffic operations studies related
to specific development proposals.
Jack Lam <
Victoria Community Plan Circulation
September 26, 1980
Page 2
These areas of concern are summarized as follows:
Detailed Collector Street Provisions
Detailed analysis of the projected collector street system requires further
study to insure that traffic volumes along Victoria Parkway are distributed
in such a manner as to maintain the rural character of that roadway system.
These further studies will likely result in the provision of additional
collector streets to augment the proposed loops now branching from the
Victoria Parkway. As a pert of these modification:;, Rochester Avenue should
connect through the Plan to Base Line Road. This connection is consistent
with the General Plan proposal and will serve to relieve traffic congestion on
Milliken Avenue and the intersection of Day Creek Boulevard with Foothill
Boulevard. Under the proposed Circulation Element serious traffic concerns
focus on the availability of freeway access. As a mitigation for, these
problems, an interchange has been proposed at Seventh Street and Interstate 15
(Devore Freeway). The continuation of Rochester would serve to distribute
traffic to this interchange and away from potentially congested interchanges
at Foothill and the Devore Freeway and Milliken and Interstate 10 (San Bernardino
Freeway).
The Engineering Division will be meeting with the Victoria Engineers and Planners
to further work out these collector systems and should be able to resolve
connections prior to adoption of the plan.
Foothill Freeway Interface
The northerly boundary of the Victoria Community is contiguous to Highland Avenue
and the proposed Foothill Freeway. Upon completion of the freeway or other high
speed arterial system, Highland Avenue would become a frontage road. This frontage road
has not been specifically detailed at this time, but could utilize large portions
of tiic existing Highland Avenue with specific modifications at the interchanges
with Milliken Avenue and Day Creek Boulevard. Until the development of the
Foothill Freeway Corridor, Highland Averoue should be constructed to a 64 foot
curb to curb section to accommodate 5 lanes of traffic similar to existing
Nineteenth Street.
.111 development proposals at the intersection of Highland Avenue and Milliken
Avenue and at Highland and Day Creek should be required to prepare the details
of the frontage road system in coordination with Caltrans.
The details of this analysis would not be appropriate at the current level of
planning.
Grade Separation
Milliken Avenue, Rochester Avenue and Day Creek Boulevard all cross the Pacifc
Jack Lam
Victoria Community P% :irculation
September 26, 1980
Page 3
Electric tracks towards the center of the plan. Preliminary discussions with
the Public Utilities Commission indicat that these could be at grade crossings,
however, further study should be conduc�ed on this matter. If any of these
crossings should require grade separation, preliminary design studies should
be carried out to determine right-of-way requirements.
Provision of such improvements would in the Engineering Division's interpre-
tation, be a proper purpose for systems development funds.
Regional Center Access
General Plan Circulation studies indicate that the intensity of development
including the Regional Center and regional related development will generate
significant volumes of traffic which will require detailed traffic analysis
and substantial capital improvements involving the Foothill Boulevard inter-
change to the Devore Freeway and the connection of Day Creek Boulevard to
Foothill Boulevard. The detailed traffic analysis to resolve these precise
circulation elements require precise development plans for the Regional Center
and specific proposals for regional related development. Although these
studies have begun with a consulting team, they cannot be resolved at the level
the specific plan approval .
The consultant team now working on these sensitive traffic studies is composed
of the City Engineer, DKS Associates, City Traffic Consultants, Wes Pringle
and Associates, Victoria Traffic Consultant, Donald Frischer and Associates,
Hahn Company Traffic Consultant, Caltrans, SWA Victoria Planning Consultants,
Southwest Engineering, Hahn Company Site Engineers. The results of these
studies will be a conceptual circulation plan at the freeway interchange for
submittal to Caltrans for their approval . The results of these studies will
resolve precise plans for Day Creek Boulevard, Foothill Boulevard, Miller
Avenue and the freeway interchange. Studies may also effect the operational
characteristics of Etiwanda Avenue between Base Line and Foothill.
PRECISE ALIGNMENT STUDIES
he proposed plan establishes the general alignment of streets within the pro-
ject and significant detail about design characteristics. In order to insure
the intent of these characteristics, precise alignment studies and right-of-
way limits will be required for logical design segments for specific streets.
A precise plan should be adopted for Victoria Parkway as soon as possible after
the adoption of the plan and prior to approval of Tentative Maps which may
involve significant alignment features. The precise plan will indicate exact
survey locations.
collector systems will require precise alignment plans in logical segment prior
to or concurrent with approval of Tentative Maps.
STREET STA14DARDS
Public and private street standards should be adopted for the pla.nswhich are
in conformance with standards adopted by the General Plan. The draft standards
i

are included in the Circulation Element and differ somewhat from those proposed
by Victoria. Upon adoption, the two should be consistent-.
CONCLUSION

development. Further detailed analysis will be requi •ed to implement the plan
as described aboe,e.

1977
To: Barry Pogan, City Planner
From: Bill Holley, Director, Community Services Department
Subject: Victoria Community Plan
This memorandum addresses the above referenced project with
respect to provision of parks, open space and recreation
facilities. Comments are based upon a study of the document
The Victoria Community Plan, by the Wi Ttiam Lyon Company as
submitted to the City in June of 1980; discussions with Gary Frve
of the William Lyon Company; and, discussions with City Planning
staff.
The Requirements
Proceeding under the assumption that the population projections
cited in the Plan on page 115 are valid, the project will generate
a population of 22,895. The standards for park and recreation
facilities in subdivision, as set forth in Ordinance 105*, applied
to this project's projected population indicate that provision of
114.47 acres of park and recreational land will be required.
22,895 x 5 = 114.47
1000
The Plan proposes, on page 110, to meet this requirement through
the provision of 110 acres of public park lands divided between
parks, 30 acres; lakes, 40 acres; linear parks, 35 acres; and
community trails, 5 acres. The Plan also lists a private member-
ship recreation facility of lU acres.
The Plan, as proposed, satisfies 96% of the public park lands
requirement. The private membership recreation center is not
given credit toward the requirement as it falls outside the
prescribed standards in Ordinance 105, Section 3(F) (2) (3),**
being voluntary, and operated by way of initiation fees and monthly
dues. ***
The Parks
The parks, Groves, Vineyards, and Windrows, would appear very
appropriate ... . when ^lanned and used in conjunction with school
sites as proposed in the Plan. This is pointedly demonstrated by
Windrows Park. Should the school not materialize, this park,
centered within a low medium residential setting could not support
a reasonable variety of recreational opportunities for the 5,960
residents of Windrow Village, having only the lake and it's edges
available.

The Victoria Parkway
The Victoria Parkway as a concept, and c.s presented in the plan also appears
appropriate. The treatment of the linear park, with it's meandering bicycle/
pedestrian trails would provide a pleasant recreational opportunity to the
residents of the Plan, as well as a nice visual relief. Care must, however,
be exercised in circulation planning to insure that the Parkway would not
attract a burdensome vehicular traffic load.
The Community Trails
The Community Trail System concept as described in the Plan is satisfactory
and should benefit the Project.
The Lakes
The concept of the lakes is very interesting. It would be appropriate, however,
to have this portion of the plan studied by a firm independent of the William
Lyon Co. , with expertise in the areas of lake construction and maintenance.
That expertise is not available within City staff resources. An important
factor in this portion of the Plan is recognizing that the main recreational
function of the lakes is visual not active. It must also be recognized that
36% of the project's park and recreation requirement is proposed to be met
through the lake system. From my perspective, this type of balance between
active and passive is not only acceptable, but desirable.
Meeting the City Park Requirements (page 227 V.C.P. )
The first three paragraphs are acceptable as presented. The fourth paragraph
needs a rewrite to the effect of indicating that a dollar for dollar development
credit would be given toward the park requirement, but no credit would be given
the Lyon Co. for the lands owned by Southern California Edison or San Bernardino
County Flood Control District.
Recommendations:
Recommendations would be as follows:
1 . That the Lakes portion of the project be studied apart from the
William Lyon Co. with regard to construction, maintenance.
Along this same line, the questions should be spec?rically addressed
regarding availability of lake fill water and the re:iability of
that availability.
2. The Schools and the Park should be designed as a unit with agreements
between the City and the Districts covering maintenance and use.
3. The maintenance of all public open space is to be maintained by a
special assessment district, as called for in the Plan.

Subject: PLANNED COMMUNITY NO. 80-01 AND ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW FOR VICTORIA -
WILLIAM LYON COMPANY - This is a request for the establishment of
a Planned Community Zone, text and development plan setting forth
specific land uses, development standards, a circulation system
and overall design theme. The project encompasses 2,150+ acres
bounded on the north by Highland Avenue. following Deer Creek on
the west until it intersects the Southe n Pacific Railroad, which
'then jogs east and then south to Base Line. From Base Line the
boundary travels east past Rochester and then south u..til it inter-
sects I-15 which then transverses along 1-15 to Etiwanda Avenue
which forms the eastern edge of the project site.
ABSTRACT: This is the first of a series of meetings that will be held m
Victoria Planned Community. The purpose of this first meeting is to set
the foundation for the review process and to begin discussion of the Victoria
Planned Community.
DISCUSSION: The Victoria Planned Community (PC) encompasses 2,150 acres of
land and includes i'lood control and edison easements bifuricating the property.
Also included in Victoria is a regional shopping center proposed by the Ernest
Hahn Company.
The major problem facing the developer was how to relate all of the pieces
into one cohesive plan. He proposes to do so by the use of a linear park
(Victoria Parkway) and a series of lakes. The developer will be present on
Tuesday evening to make a presentation on the development of Victoria and
his proposals for development.
This report will cover six areas of discussion - objective or purpose,
approval process, planned community relationship with existing ordinances,
planned community ordinance, statistical summary, program for review.
Plan Objective: As stated on Page 23 of the text, "The principle planning
objective of this plan is to create a total , integrated community that:
responds to the goals of the General Plan and the environment" . (paraphrased)
In addition to those goals and objectives stated in the text the plan roust
also meet the purposes as outlined in Ordinance 94 (Planned Communities) ; i .e.
promote and protect the public health, safety and welfare, promote more econo-

mical and efficient use of the land while providing a harmonious variety
of housing choices, commercial activities, a high level of urban amenities,
and preservation of natural and scenic qualities of open space (see attached
ordinance for entire purpose) .
f; Approval Process: In order to give the Commission some idea of the approval
process the following flow chart has been prepared:
Developer Developer Refinement Plan
consultation w preparation of of Concept Preparation
Staff & fity concept plan
Staff Begin P.C.
Plan Submittal review for review process
completeness public hearings
Completion of Begin C.C. Completion of
public hearings review process public hearings
and plan approval public hearings and plan
rec. to C.C. approval
The end product that the developer receives from the City is a designation
of "PC" on his property, adopted development plan; i .e. a more specific
General Plan, adopted development regulations for his property.
After completion of the approval process, the developer may submit for develop-
ment of the prorarty within the Planned Connnunity. In the case of Victoria;
however, no development submittal may occur on the regional shopping center
until further filings are made in the way of a specific EIR for the regional
center and its ancillary features.
Planned Community Relationshi with Existing Ordinances: It must be remembered
that the Planned Community, although it has somewhat different development
(zoning) regulations, it would be neither productive or desirable to create
an entirely new zoning text for each planned community. Therefore, the PC
text states what is different and should not repeat, but, instead reference
the City's Zoning Ordinance where applicable. It should also be remembered
that the regulations for the PC must be administered by the City Staff ind
the intent and purpose of each and every regulation should be clear.
Specific sections of our Zoning Ordinance should be referenced; i .e. Variances,
Conditional Use Permits, Minor Deviations, Development Review, Home Occupations,
Model Home Regulations and Temporary Uses. What we don't want is a community
that looks good but does not work after it is built.

7. Implementation
In order to provide the most efficient and effective review of each of the
seven parts of the whole, we suggest that the Planning Commission select
the first and second most important parts that they wish to discuss. Staff
will then schedule a special adjourned meeting for each part. As the Commis-
sion completes review of one part, another two parts should be selected and
prioritized, and so on until all of the parts have been reviewed.
It would be our suggestion that there should be at least two weeks between
each meeting. As the Commission will recall when the Interim General Plan
was reviewed, we held back to back meetings, one week after another. The
result was twofold - one we adopted an Interim General Plan; two, we were
consumed with the work on the General Plan so much so that it was difficult
to give adequate review to other Agenda items. Please remember that in the
next two months, in addition to Victoria, the Planning Commission will be
reviewing the proposed General Plan and all of the Growth Management files.
The first two suggested meeting places would be the Forum on September 29
and October 13 at 7:00 p.m. Please reserve all Mondays through October and
November for continued review of Victoria.
