A. Recitals. I. Trimark Pacific Homes, L.P.,filed an application for Development Review DRC2005-00401,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 26th day of April 2006, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga held a public hearing to consider the application. 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 April 26, 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 on the east side of East Avenue, with a street frontage of approximately 630 feet; and b. The property to the north of the subject site is vacant and is zoned Neighborhood Commercial and Very Low Residential;the property to the south is developed with Etiwanda Creek Park and is zoned Very Low Residential; the property to the east is vacant and is zoned Open Space; and the property to the west is developed with Fire Station No. 176 and single-family dwelling units that are under construction and is zoned Estate Residential; and C. 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 PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 06-46 DRC2005-00401 —TRIMARK PACIFIC HOMES, L.P. April 26, 2006 Page 2 d. The applicant conducted one neighborhood meeting to inform the surrounding neighborhood residents of the proposed project and to obtain their feedback and no residents attended the meeting; and e. The project design meets or exceeds the Very Low Residential District Basic Development Standards; and f. The design of the single-family homes accomplishes a 360-degree architectural treatment by the application of complementary primary and secondary materials and architectural elements to all sides of the dwelling units;therefore,the architectural design of the project meets the design goals of the General Plan and Development Code. 3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above-referenced public hearing on April 26, 2006, including written and oral staff reports, this Commission hereby specifically finds and concludes as follows: a. That the proposed project is consistent with the objectives of the General Plan; and b. That the proposed design is in accord with the objectives of the Development Code and the purposes of the district in which the site is located; and C. That the proposed design is in compliance with each of the applicable provisions of the Development Code; and d. That the proposed design, 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. 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. PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 06-46 DRC2005-00401 —TRIMARK PACIFIC HOMES, L.P. April 26, 2006 Page 3 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 mitigation measures during 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 adverse effect on wildlife resources or the habitat upon which the wildlife depends. A biological assessment of the site by Michael Brandman Associates(MBA)in December of 2004,was conducted to evaluate the potential of the site to support special-status wildlife species and vegetation including, but not limited to, the following: Burrowing Owl, Coastal California Gnatcatcher, San Diego Horned Lizard,San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat, Slender-Horned Spineflower,and Johnston's Buckwheat. A biologist conducted a literature review and a physical walk of the entire site in order to evaluate the potential occurrence of sensitive biological resources on the project site. Additionally, a focused survey for the San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat was completed in 2004. The biological assessment report states that the project site is heavily disturbed. Several dirt roads traverse the site, and discing for weed abatement purposes is evident on most of the property. The site contains no blue line streams. MBA conducted a final visit to the project site on August 18, 2005, and found the site to be highly disturbed, and that the project site does not provide suitable habitat for the California Gnatcatcher, San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat, and San Diego Horned Lizard. The report recommends that pursuant to the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and California Department of Fish and Game Code (CDFG), removal of any trees, shrubs, or any other potentially nesting habitat should not occur during the nesting season (generally February through August). The report recommends that a pre-construction survey for nesting birds be done prior any ground disturbing activities. If active nests are found, informal consulting with CDFG is recommended. If the birds are found to be nesting within 500 feet of the impact area, construction will need to be postponed until it is determined that the nest has successfully fledged young and it is determined by a qualified ornithologist that the nest is no longer active. A mitigation measure has been included requiring that pre-construction survey for nesting birds shall be done prior any ground disturbing activities. Based on substantial evidence, the Planning Commission hereby makes a declaration rebutting the presumption of adverse effect as set forth in the 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 City Planner 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 and in the Standard Conditions, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.

Cultural Resources 1) If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified archaeologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect 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 Cityto 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 (i.e. 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 to 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 maybe 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. PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 06-46 DRC2005-00401 —TRIMARK PACIFIC HOMES, L.P. April 26, 2006 Page 9 • 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). • Submit a summary report to the City of Rancho Cucamonga. Transfer collected specimens with a copy of the report to the San Bernardino County Museum. Geology and Soils 1) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent(approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) daily to reduce PM10 emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403 or re-planted with drought resistant landscaping as soon as possible. 2) Frontage public streets shall be swept according to a schedule established by the City to reduce PM10 emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil off-site. Timing may vary depending upon the time of year of construction. 3) Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph to minimize PM10 emissions from the site during such episodes. 4) Chemical soil-stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PM10 emissions. Hydrology and Water Quality 1) Prior to issuance of Grading Permits, the permit applicant shall submit to Building Official for approval, 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 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 remediation or restoration program within a specified time frame. PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 06-46 DRC2005-00401 —TRIMARK PACIFIC HOMES, L.P. April 26, 2006 Page 10 3) During construction,temporary berms such as sandbags or gravel dikes must be used to prevent discharge of debris or sediment from the site when there is rainfall or other runoff. 4) During construction, to remove pollutants, street cleaning will be performed prior to storm events and after the use of water trucks to control dust in order to prevent discharge of debris or sediment from the site. 5) The use of fossil filters or other drainage filtration systems will used at approved areas as called out on the Erosion Control Plan. 6) The developer shall implement the BMPs identified in the Water Quality Management Plan prepared by Thomsen Engineering, July 2005 to reduce pollutants after construction entering the storm drain system to the maximum extent practical. 7) The project has been designed to direct storm flows, when possible, to an outlet that drains to a regional drainage facility. 8) Runoff from rooftops will be directed into landscape areas. 9) Landscaping plans shall include provisions for controlling and minimizing the use of fertilizers/pesticides/herbicides. Landscaped areas shall be monitored and maintained for at least two years to ensure adequate coverage and stable growth. Plans for these areas, including monitoring provisions for a minimum of two years, shall be submitted to the City for review and approval prior to the issuance of Grading Permits. 10) Prior to issuance of Building Permits, the applicant shall submit to the City Engineer for approval of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP), including a project description and identifying Best Management Practices (BMPs) that will be used on-site to reduce pollutants into the storm drain system to the maximum extent practicable.
