The application applies to property located at the southwest comer of Foothill Boulevard and Vineyard Avenue with a combined street frontage of 1,022 feet and lot depth of 746 feet, which is presently improved with the historic Klusman House; and b. The properties to the north of the subject site, on the opposite side of Foothill Boulevard, are designated as Community Commercial within the Foothill Boulevard Districts and are developed with a retail shopping center, the property to the south is within the Medium Residential District (8-14 units per acre) and is vacant, the properties to the east, on the opposite side of Vineyard Avenue, are designated as Community Commercial within the Foothill Boulevard Districts and Medium-High Residential (14-24 units per acre) and are developed with a service station/fast food facility and a multiple-family residential complex, and the property to the west, on the opposite side of the Cucamonga Creek Flood Control Channel is within the Medium Residential District(8-14 dwelling units per acre) and is being developed with single-family residences; and C. The application contemplates the construction of a retail shopping center on an 8.9-acre site with 393 parking spaces and a total building coverage of 75,652 square feet and will also include outdoor plaza features. This application has been submitted pursuant to Development PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 03-28 DRC2002-00739, MOD. OF CUP 95-25— SAHGA GROUP L.P. February 26, 2003 Page 2 Code provisions for the Foothill Boulevard Districts Community Commercial land use designation; and d. The project will continue the retail commercial development that is predominate around the Foothill Boulevard/Vineyard Avenue intersection, as provided in the General Plan. 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above- referenced public hearing 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 use is in accord with the General Plan, the objectives of the Development Code, and the purposes of the district in which the site is located by authorizing the development of shopping center projects in the Community Commercial designation of the Foothill Boulevard Districts; and b. 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 as evidenced by the findings and conclusions of Part II of the Initial Study; and C.

Based upon the facts and information contained in the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application,the Planning Commission finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect upon the environment and adopts a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Monitoring Program attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference, based upon the findings as follows: a. That the Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as amended, and the State CEQA guidelines promulgated thereunder; that said Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Initial Study prepared therefore reflect the independent judgment of the Planning Commission; and, further, this Commission has reviewed and considered the information contained in said Mitigated Negative Declaration with regard to the application. b. Although the Mitigated Negative Declaration identifies certain significant environmental effects that will result if the project is approved, all significant effects have been reduced to an acceptable level by imposition of mitigation measures on the project,which are listed below as Conditions of Approval. C. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 753.5(c) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, the Planning Commission finds as follows: In considering the record as a whole, the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project, there is no evidence that the proposed project will have potential for an adverse impact upon wildlife resources or the habitat upon which wildlife depends. Further, based upon the substantial evidence contained in the Mitigated Negative Declaration, the staff reports and exhibits, and the information provided to the Planning Commission during the public hearing, the Planning Commission hereby rebuts the presumption of adverse effect as set forth in Section 753.5(c-1-d) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations.
