GENERAL COMMERCIAL (GC) DISTRICT, LOCATED AT
8517 GROVE AVENUE;AND MAKING FINDINGS IN SUPPORTTHEREOF
- APN: 0207-222-05.
A. Recitals.
1. Elias Alfata, on behalf of Bichara Mitri, filed an application for the approval of Variance
DRC2006-00737, as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the
subject Variance request is referred to as "the application."
2. On the 14th day of November 2007, 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 November 14, 2007, including written and oral staff reports,
together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. The application is related to Conditional Use Permit DRC2006-00337 which
applies to a parcel about 37,000 square feet (0.85 acre) within the General Commercial (GC)
District, located on the southeast corner of Arrow Route and Grove Avenue at 8517 Grove Avenue;
and
b. The subject property has a street frontage along Grove Avenue of about 216 feet
and a street frontage along Arrow Route of about 176 feet; and
C. The application contemplates the reduction in the parking setback along
Arrow Route from the required 30 feet to a proposed 20 feet; and
d. The proposed project complies with all other development and design standards
and policies as specified in the Development Code and by the of the Planning Commission; and

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 project is impacted by both existing on-site development (e.g., the existing
automotive repair shop - Building A) and new City requirements which affect the layout of the site.
The property is less than an acre (0.85) in size and is located at a key intersection which involves
the incorporation of specific technical criteria for locating access points and on-site circulation
patterns. Taken together these factors limit the net buildable area of the site and the location of on-
site parking areas.
b. The subject site is located at the southeast corner of Grove Avenue and
Arrow Route, an important intersection shared with the City of Upland. The project is required to
construct public improvements in the form of a bus turnout lane and bus shelter along the Arrow
Route frontage of the site. These improvements are significant for a relatively small lot and reduce
the overall usable depth of the property, since setbacks along street frontages are measured from
the ultimate curb face. In this case, the curb will be shifted south by about 10 feet for the bus
turnout lane with the required setback line being similarly shifted south by the same distance.
Moreover, the locations of the required access points (e.g., drive approaches) onto the site are
dictated by minimum intersection-to-driveway separation requirements administered by the
Engineering Department and intended to prevent right/left turn conflicts at the intersection. Thus,
the proposed reduction in the required 30-foot setback from Arrow Route will allow the provision of
necessary public improvements at the north end of the property and the reasonable development of
the 0.85-acre site in accordance with all other City standards and design objectives; and
C. Without benefit of the variance for the parking lot setback along the Arrow Route
frontage,the applicant would be required to significantly alter the proposed project and/or site plan.
The applicant and staff have worked on alternative layouts and determined that the proposed layout
is the most efficient and logical for the size of the property and the existing and proposed uses(i.e.,
the automotive repair shop and car wash) that will remain on-site. Except for relief in the required
setback as requested by the applicant, the layout complies with the City's requirements for on-site
parking and circulation, Fire Department access, and landscaping overall; and
d. The Variance to allow a reduced setback for the parking lot does not constitute a
special privilege to applicant. The site is relatively small and yet is subject to the same type of
requirements that would apply to much larger commercial and industrial developments which are not
impacted in the same manner by such requirements. Moreover,flexibility on the size and/or design
of the bus turnout lane is limited by the short length of the property on Arrow Route to accommodate
it and a drive approach which meet technical standards (e.g. width)for a commercial development.
Finally, the reduced setback will not impact the applicant's responsibility to comply with required
drive aisle widths, parking space dimensional standards, exterior lighting, and landscaping near the
adjacent properties; and
e. The granting of this Variance request will not adversely affect the appearance and
characteristics of the surrounding area. In fact, the project has been designed to significantly
improve the overall use and appearance of the site at a significant entry point to the City. The
project takes into account the appropriate orientation of the car wash in relation to the nearby
residences and businesses, the location of the existing building on the site, on-site parking, and
access.

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 effect upon the environment and adopts a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Monitoring
Program attached hereto and incorporated herein by the reference, based upon the finding as
follows:
a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act("CEQA")and the City's local
CEQA Guidelines, 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, 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 project implementation. The Planning Commission therefore
adopts the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project.
d. 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. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in Paragraphs 1,2,3,and 4 above,this
Commission hereby approves the application subject to each and every condition set forth below.
