e. The project design is consistent with each of the applicable provisions of the
Development Code and the Basic Development Standards of the Etiwanda Specific Plan, including,
but not limited to, the following goals and policies:
i) Create opportunities wherein a population diverse in terms of income, age,
occupation, race, ethnic background, lifestyle, values, interests, and religion may interact,exchange
ideas, and realize common goals. (Project would create single-family detached homes with differing
price ranges adjacent to other single-family detached homes and multiple family attached homes).
ii) Encourage opportunities to mix different, but compatible, land uses and
activities. (Project would add single-family detached residences adjacent to proposed multiple family
attached residences. Residential land uses are considered compatible as opposed to more intense
commercial uses).
iii) Organize land uses to avoid creating nuisances among adjacent land uses.
(Consistent with the City s General Plan intent for Low-Medium Residential District, this project will
result in an orderly transition in density from the Medium Residential District to the northeast adjacent

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.
C. The project is in the Etiwanda Avenue Overlay District, which requires a Conditional
Use Permit to ensure development along Etiwanda Avenue is consistent with the historical character
and quality of the street.
d. There are special development criteria in the Etiwanda Avenue Overlay District,
which require homes along Etiwanda Avenue face the street, maintain a minimum separation of
25 feet between homes, and be designed to enhance and reinforce the visual and historical
character and quality of Etiwanda Avenue.
e. The proposed use complies with each of the applicable provisions of the
Development Code and the Etiwanda Specific Plan.
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 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 .

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 orthe 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.
