A. Recitals.
1. Solid Ground Brethren in Christ Church filed an application for the issuance of
Conditional Use Permit DRC2006-00240 as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in
this Resolution, the subject Conditional Use Permit request is referred to as "the application."
2. On the 23rd day of August 2006, 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.
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 public hearing on August 23, 2006, including written and oral staff reports,
together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. . The application applies to the property located at 9974 19th Street with a street
frontage of 322 feet and lot depth of approximately 950 feet and which is presently improved with
buildings, open space, and parking for the existing church and private school uses; and
b. The property to the north of the subject site is the 1-210 freeway;the property to the
south across 19th Street consists of single-family residences;the property to the east and west are
large apartment complexes; and

d. Church and private school uses are allowed in residential areas subject to the
approval of a Conditional Use Permit for which the applicant has applied;
e. The existing and proposed development for the site is consistent with City
Development Code requirements, including setbacks, building height, and the provision of on-site
parking; and
f. Current on-site parking is 167 spaces which exceeds the parking requirements for
the existing church and/or the private school uses. On-site parking will be increased in the near
term to 197 spaces upon the completion of Building F which will exceed the 189 spaces required for
the entire project at build out; and
g. The project site is surrounded by urbanized land uses not located within any habitat
conservation or natural community plan area. According to the General Plan Exhibit IV-3, and
Section 5.3 of the General Plan FEIR, the project site is not located within an area of sensitive
biological resources; therefore, further development of the site will not adversely affect rare or
endangered species of plants or animals; and
h. On June 8,2006,the applicant conducted a neighborhood meeting to solicit public
comments. No members of the public attended.
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. The proposed
master plan for development of the site is consistent with the goals and objectives of the General
Plan and the applicable development criteria contained in the Development Code. Church and
private school uses are allowed in residential districts subject to the approval of a Conditional Use
Permit.
b. The proposed master plan and uses, 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. The area surrounding the church site is developed with
urban uses, and the proposed improvements will not divide an established community or pose
adverse impacts to the adjacent neighborhoods/improvements. Moreover, the project site is not
located within any habitat conservation or natural community plan area;therefore,development will
not adversely affect rare or endangered species of plants or animals.
C. The proposed master plans and uses comply with applicable provisions of the
Development Code. The existing development on the site is consistent with City requirements,and
the proposed improvements will meet current requirements such as setbacks, building height, and
provision of on-site parking. At 10.22 acres, the shape and size of the site is sufficient to more than
adequately accommodate the proposed improvements, including efficient on-site circulation without
major difficulties or risk of over building of the site. Moreover, the existing church is located on and
has access to fully developed public streets of the appropriate size and configuration to
accommodate the existing and improved uses.

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
findings as follows:
a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's local
CEQA Guidelines, the City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of
the project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, City staff determined that,with the
imposition of mitigation measures, there would be no substantial evidence that the project would
have a significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated Negative
Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, the City staff provided public notice of the public comment
period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration.
b. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and all
comments received regarding the Mitigated Negative Declaration and, based on the whole record
before it,finds: (i)that the Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared in compliance with CEQA;
and (ii)that, based on the imposition of mitigation measures, there is no substantial evidence that
the project will have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning Commission further finds
that the Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the
Planning Commission. Based on these findings, the Planning Commission hereby adopts the
Mitigated Negative Declaration.
C. The Planning Commission has also reviewed and considered the Mitigation
Monitoring Program for the project that has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of Public
Resources Code Section 21081.6 and finds that such program is designed to ensure compliance
with the mitigation measures during the project implementation. The Planning Commission
therefore adopts the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project.
d. Pursuant to the requirements of California Fish and Game Code Section 711.4 and
Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, Section 753.5,the Planning Commission finds,based
on the Initial Study,the Mitigated Negative Declaration, and considering the record as a whole,that
there is no evidence before the City that the proposed project will have the potential for an adverse
effect on wildlife resources or the habitat upon which the wildlife depends. The subject site is not in
a natural state, contains no bodies of water, and is completely surrounded by suburban
development including single- and multiple- family residences and the 1-210 freeway, which
effectively cuts off the site from any undeveloped lands and wildlife that may exist to the north.
Based on substantial evidence,the Planning Commission hereby makes a declaration rebutting the
presumption of adverse effect as set forth in California Department of Fish and Game Regulation
753.5 (Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations Code, Section 753.5.)
e. The custodian of records for the Initial Study, Mitigated Negative Declaration,
Mitigation Monitoring Program and all other materials which constitute the record of proceedings
upon which the Planning Commission's decision is based is the Planning Director of the City of
Rancho Cucamonga. Those documents are available for public review in the Planning Department
of the City of Rancho Cucamonga located at 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga,
California 91730, telephone (909) 477-2750.

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 their special
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 CEQA 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.
2) If any paleontological resource (e.g. plant or animal fossils) are
encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a
qualified paleontologist to monitor construction activities, to take
appropriate measures protect or preserve them for study. The
paleontologist shall submit a report of findings that will also provide
specific recommendations regarding further 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
discovery, the grading contractor should immediately divert
construction and notify the monitor of the find.
• Prepare, identify, and curate all recovered fossils for
documentation in the summary report and transfer to an
appropriate depository (i.e., San Bernardino County Museum).

to Building Official for approval a Storm Water Pollution Prevention
Plan (SWPPP) specifically identifying Best Management Practices
(BMPs) that shall be used on-site to reduce pollutants during
construction activities entering the storm drain system to the maximum
extent practical.
2) An Erosion Control Plan shall be prepared, included in the Grading
Plan, and implemented for the proposed project that identifies specific
measures to control on-site and off-site erosion from the time of ground
disturbing activities are initiated through completion of grading. This
Erosion Control Plan shall include the following measures at a
minimum: a) Specify the timing of grading and construction to
minimize soil exposure to rainy periods experienced in southern
California, and b) An inspection and maintenance program shall be
included to ensure that any erosion which does occur either on-site or
off-site as a result of this project will be corrected through a

Project Description: A request to amend Conditional Use Permit 96-17 and approve a master plan
to allow site and building improvements including the construction of additional classrooms and a
multi-purpose building for use as a gym, on 10.22 acres of land in the Medium Residential District
(8-14 dwelling units per acre).
FINDING
This is to advise that the City of Rancho Cucamonga,acting as the lead agency,has conducted an
Initial Study to determine if the project may have a significant effect on the environment and is
proposing this Mitigated Negative Declaration based upon the following finding:
The Initial Study identified potentially significant effects but:
(1) Revisions in the project plans or proposals made or agreed to by the applicant before this
proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration was released for public review would avoid the
effects or mitigate the effects to a point where clearly no significant effects would occur, and
(2) There is no substantial evidence before the agency that the project, as revised, may have a
significant effect on the environment.
If adopted,the Mitigated Negative Declaration means that an Environmental Impact Report will not
be required. The factual and analytical basis for this finding is included in the attached Initial
Study. The project file and all related documents are available for review at the City of Rancho
Cucamonga Planning Department at 10500 Civic Center Drive (909) 477-2750 or Fax (909) 477-
