b. The design or improvements of the tentative parcel map is consistent with the
General Plan, Development Code, and any applicable specific plans; and
C. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed; and
d. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause substantial environmental
damage and avoidable injury to humans and wildlife or their habitat; and
e. The tentative parcel map is not likely to cause serious public health problems;and
f. The design of the tentative parcel map will not conflict with any easement acquired
by the public at large, now of record, for access through or use of the property within the proposed
subdivision.
4. 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 thatihe 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 California Environmental
Quality Act 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.
5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above,
this Commission hereby approves the application subject to each and every condition set forth
below and in the Standard Conditions attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference:

Cultural Resources
1) If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or
during grading, the developer will retain a qualified archaeologist to
monitor construction activities,to take appropriate measures to protect
or preserve them for study. With the assistance of the archaeologist,
the City of Rancho Cucamonga will:
• Enact interim measures to protect undesignated sites from
demolition or significant modification without an opportunity for
the City to establish its archaeological value.
• Consider establishing provisions to require incorporation of
archaeological sites within new developments, using theirspecial
qualities as a theme or focal point.
• Pursue educating the public about the area's archaeological
heritage.
• Propose mitigation measures and recommend conditions of
approval to eliminate adverse project effects on significant,
important, and unique prehistoric resources, following
appropriate California Environmental Quality Act guidelines.
• Prepare a technical resources management report,documenting
the inventory, evaluation, and proposed mitigation of resources
within the project area. Submit one copy of the completed report
with original illustrations, to the San Bernardino County
Archaeological Information Center for permanent archiving.

mitigation measures (i.e., paleontological monitoring) that may be
appropriate. Where mitigation monitoring is appropriate, the program
must include, but not be limited to, the following measures:
• Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow
the rapid removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to
the site full-time during the interval of earth-disturbing activities.
• Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded,
divert earth-disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has
completed salvage. If construction personnel make the
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 03-91

discovery, the grading contractor should immediately divert
construction and notify the monitor of the find.

collected specimens with a copy of the report to San Bernardino
County Museum.

Matter,() emissions, in accordance with South Coast Air Quality
Management District Rule 403.

established by the City to reduce Particulate Matter,o emissions
associated with vehicle tracking of soil off-site. Timing may vary
depending upon time of year of construction.

25 mph to minimize Particulate Matter,o emissions from the site during
such episodes.
4) Chemical soil-stabilizers (approved by South Coast Air Quality
Management District and Regional Water Quality Control Board)shall
be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for
96 hours or more to reduce Particulate Matter,o emissions.

1) Structures to retain precipitation and runoff on-site shall be integrated
into the design of the project where appropriate. Measures that may
be used to minimize runoff and to enhance infiltration include Dutch
drains, precast concrete lattice blocks and bricks,terraces, diversions,
runoff spreaders, seepage pits, and recharge basins.
2) Prior to issuance of building permits, the applicant shall submit to the
City Engineer for approval of a Water Quality Management Plan,
including a project description and identifying Best Management
Practices that will be used on-site to reduce pollutants into the storm
drain system to the maximum extent practicable. The Water Quality
Management Plan shall identify the structural and non-structural
measures consistent with the Guidelines for New Development and
Redevelopment adopted by the City of Rancho Cucamonga in
June 2000.
3) Prior to issuance of grading or paving permits, applicant shall submit to
the City Engineer a Notice of Intent (NOI) to comply with obtaining

General Construction Storm Water Permit from the State Water
Resources Control Board. Evidence that this has been obtained(i.e.,a
copy of the Waste Dischargers Identification Number) shall be
submitted to the City Engineer for coverage under the National
Pollution Discharge Elimination System General Construction Permit.
Noise
1) Construction or grading shall not take place between the hours of
8:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any
time on Sunday or a national holiday.
2) Construction or grading noise levels shall not exceed the standards
specified in Development Code Section 17.02.120-D, as measured at
the property line. Developer shall hire a consultant to perform weekly
noise level monitoring as specified in Development Code
Section 17.02.120. Monitoring at other times may be required by the
Planning Division. Said consultant shall report their findings to the
Planning Division within 24 hours; however, if noise levels exceed the
above standards, then the consultant shall immediately notify the
Planning Division. If noise levels exceed the above standards, then
construction activities shall be reduced in intensity to a level of
compliance with above noise standards or halted.
3) Haul truck deliveries shall not take place between the hours of
8:00 p.m. and 6:30 a.m. on weekdays, including Saturday, or at any
time on Sunday or a national holiday. Additionally, if heavy trucks used
for hauling would exceed 100 daily trips (counting both to and from the
construction site), then the developer shall prepare a noise mitigation
plan denoting any construction traffic haul routes. To the extent
feasible, the plan shall denote haul routes that do not pass sensitive
land uses or residential dwellings.
