On August 27, and continued to September 10, and September 24, 2003, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a duly noticed public hearing on the application and concluded said hearing on that date. 5. All legal prerequisites prior to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred. B. Resolution. NOW,THEREFORE, it is hereby found, determined, and resolved by the 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 public hearing on August 27, and September 10, and September 24, 2003, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application applies to property located on the south side of Foothill Boulevard approximately 530 feet west of the 1-15 freeway on ramp, with a street frontage of approximately 1,300 feet and lot depth of 1,700 feet, and which is presently unimproved; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 03-136 DRC2002-00839— FOOTHILL CROSSING, LLC September 24, 2003 Page 2 b. The property to the north of the subject site, on the north side of Foothill Boulevard, is undeveloped and is zoned for commercial uses, the property to the south consists of the 1-15 freeway, the property to the east is undeveloped and is planned for commercial uses, and the property to the west is an electrical and flood control utility corridor and is being used for plant nursery storage; and C. The application proposes the construction of a retail shopping center totaling 315,000 square feet, for uses which are permitted within the Regional Related Office/Commercial district of the Victoria Community; and, d. The proposed elevation design of the in-line stores and pad buildings,with roofed towers, curvilinear parapets, and arched entries, is compatible with the "Route 66"/Winery architectural styles being promoted along Foothill Boulevard and the Victoria Arbors Master Plan; and, e. The parking accommodation that exceeds the City s minimum standards and the inclusion of planters and trees wells is in compliance with the City's landscaping policies. 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 as an expansion of the commercial activities, planned and existing along Foothill and Day Creek Boulevards. 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 proposed use complies with each of the applicable provisions of the Victoria Community Plan and the Development Code. 4. An Environmental Impact Report (EIR)was certified October 17, 2001, as the Final EIR for the 2001 City of Rancho Cucamonga General Plan. The Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act Section 15166 provides that when a Program EIR has been certified, subsequent activities in the program must be examined in light of the program EIR to determine whether an additional environmental document must be prepared. If the agency finds that no new effects could occur or no new mitigation measures would be required, the agency can approve the activity as being within the scope of the program EIR. Because the applicant has proposed modifications to the Master Plan Circulation system, an Addendum to the 2001 General Plan Final EIR was prepared, and all feasible mitigation measures developed in the Program EIR, have been incorporated into the project design. An addendum to the 2001 General Plan Final EIR is appropriate documentation because some changes or additions are necessary to describe the modification to the Master Plan Circulation system, but none of the conditions described in CEQA Guidelines Section 1 51 62 calling for the preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred. The Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the attached addendum based on the following findings: PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 03-136 DRC2002-00839— FOOTHILL CROSSING, LLC September 24, 2003 Page 3 a. There have not been substantial changes in the project that require major revisions to the previous EIR because of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in severity of previously identified environmental effects. b. There have not been substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken,which will require major revisions to the previous EIR because of the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. C. There is no new information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the EIR was certified as complete, that shows any of the following: 1)the project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR; 2) significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe that shown in the previous EIR; 3) mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more effects of the project but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or 4) mitigation measures or alternatives, which are considerably different from those analyzed in the final EIR, would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative. 5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above, this Commission hereby recommends approval to the City Council of the application subject to each and every condition set forth below and in the Standard Conditions, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
