The project, together with the recommended conditions of approval, complies with the land division standards for the City of Rancho Cucamonga and the Subdivision Map Act; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 06-112 TENTATIVE PARCEL MAPSUBTPM17939 December 13, 2006 Page 2 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 design or improvements of the tentative map is consistent with the General Plan, Development Code, and any applicable specific plans; and b. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed; and C. The design of the subdivision is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage and avoidable injury to humans and wildlife or their habitat; and d. The tentative map is not likely to cause serious public health problems; and e. The design of the tentative 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 assessmentfor the application, the Planning Commission finds that there is no substantial evidence thatthe 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("CEQX) 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; and 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 projectwill 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; and 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 project implementation. The Planning Commission therefore adopts the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project; and 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 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 06-112 TENTATIVE PARCEL MAPSUBTPM17939 December 13, 2006 Page 3 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 project site is surrounded by industrial and commercial development, and the site has not been identified as potential location for habitat that is known to support sensitive biological species. Further, the site contains no blue line streams. 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.); and 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. 5.
