A. Recitals. 1. Mr. John Gostomski filed an application for the approval of Development Review DRC2001-00725, as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the subject Development Review request is referred to as "the application." 2. On the 10th day of July 2002, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a meeting on the application and concluded said meeting on that date. 3. All legal prerequisites prior to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred. B. Resolution. NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby found, determined, and resolved bythe Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows: 1. This Commission hereby specifically finds that all of the facts set forth in the Recitals, Part A, of this Resolution are true and correct. 2. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above- referenced meeting on July 10, 2002, including written and oral staff reports,this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application applies to property located on Skyline Road, Lot 32 of recorded Tract 10210, with an approximate street frontage of 208 feet and an average lot depth of approximately 253 feet. The subject property has natural slopes that range from 10 percent to over 50 percent. This property is severely constrained by slope and fault setbacks; hence, it is one of the few remaining unbuilt lots within Tract 10210. The lot commands a spectacular view of the valley due to its prominence above Skyline Road; and b. The property to the north is vacant and is located within the San Bernardino National Forest; the property to the east is being developed with a single family home and is located within the Hillside Residential District; the properties to the south and west are vacant and are located within the Hillside Residential District; and C. The application proposes the construction of a 4,345 square foot single family home, a permitted use within the Hillside Residential District; and d. The application proposes a single family home that is designed with a split-pad design that includes three graded pads that have an overall grade change of 3 feet, which meets the goals and objectives of the Hillside Development Regulations by utilizing design techniques that reduce grading and allow the structure to conform to the natural landform; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 02-71 DRC2001-00725—JOHN GOSTOMSKI July 10, 2002 Page 2 e. The proposed architectural style of the single family home,with stacked ledgestone, window mouldings, quoins, and strong variation in the building footprint, is compatible with the surrounding development; and f. The proposed application includes contour grading, terraced retaining walls, and slope plantings consisting of clusters of trees and shrubs, thereby meeting the goals and objectives of the Hillside Ordinance by reducing the impacts of grading and softening the appearance of manufactured slopes. 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above- referenced meeting and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2 above,this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows: a. The proposed project is consistent with the objectives of the General Plan; and b. The proposed use is in accord with the objectives of the Development Code and the purposes of the district in which the site is located; and C. The proposed use is in compliance with each of the applicable provisions of the Development Code; and d. The proposed use, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. 4. The Commission hereby finds and determines that the project identified in this Resolution is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970,as amended, and the Guidelines promulgated thereunder, pursuant to Section 15303(a) of the State CEQA Guidelines. 5.
