Recitals. 1. Craftsmen Homes filed an application for the approval of Development Review DRC2004-00279, 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 11th day of August 2004, 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 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 meeting on August 11, 2004, including written and oral staff reports, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. 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; and b. The project design is consistent with the Victoria Arbors Master Plan and the following goals and policies: i. The proposed residential uses are compatible to adjacent single-family uses as opposed to more intense multi-family uses. ii. The proposed in-fill project would create opportunities where a population that reflects diversity of income,age,occupation, race,ethnic background lifestyle,values, interest,and religion may interact, exchange ideas, and realize common goals, that are similar to the existing neighborhood to the west. iii. The proposed use is in close proximity of a transportation network that is consistent with community goals. The project is part of in-fill single-family residences within an existing neighborhood under construction and in proximity to the 1-15 Freeway to the east via Base Line Road and Foothill Boulevard, and-the 210 Freeway to the north via Day Creek Boulevard. PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 04-97 DRC2004-00279— CRAFTSMEN HOMES August 11, 2004 Page 2 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. That the Development Review is consistent with the General Plan and the Victoria Arbors Master Plan; and b. The design or improvements of the tentative tract is consistent with the General Plan, and the Victoria Arbors Master Plan; and C. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed; and d. The design of the project is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage and avoidable injury to humans and wildlife or their habitat; and e. The Development Review is not likely to cause serious public health problems;and f. The design of the Development Review 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. A Final Environmental Impact Report(State Clearinghouse No.98041137)was prepared and certified by the City Council on July 7, 1999, as a Master Environmental Impact Report for the Victoria Arbors Master Plan. On December 20, 2000,the City Council certified an Addendum to the Environmental Impact Report. The California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA)provides that once a Master Environmental Impact Report has been certified, no further Environmental Impact Report or Negative Declaration is required for subsequent projects within the scope of the Master Environmental Impact Report. Based upon the facts and information contained in the certified Environmental Impact Report, together with all written and oral reports, the Planning Commission finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect upon the environment. a. There have not been substantial changes in the project that require major revisions to the previous Environmental Impact Report because of no new significant environmental effects, or substantial increase in the severity of the previously identified significant 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 Environmental Impact Report 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 Environmental Impact Report 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 Environmental Impact Report; 2) significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous Environmental Impact Report; 3) mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or 4) PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 04-97 DRC2004-00279 — CRAFTSMEN HOMES August 11, 2004 Page 3 mitigation measures or alternatives,which are considerably different from those analyzed in the final Environmental Impact Report, would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative. 5.
