The application applies to a shopping center located at the northeast corner of Base Line Road and Haven Avenue; and b. The shopping center is approximately 556,159 square feet (12.77 acres) that is approximately 884 feet (east to west) by approximately 884 feet (north to south); and C. The shopping center is comprised of thirteen (13) buildings with a combined floor area of approximately 135,000 square feet; and d. Seven (7) of the 13 buildings are contiguous to each other and form. a single crescent-shaped strip. This strip is comprised of three (3) anchor tenant buildings-one of these is occupied by Ralphs Market. The remainder of the strip is comprised of four small tenant buildings. The other five (5) buildings are single- or multi-tenant pad buildings; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 11-08 CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT DRC2010-00348 — FIEDLER GROUP FOR RALPHS GAS March 9, 2011 Page 2 e. The specific location of the project site is at the northwest corner of the shopping center near the intersection of Haven Avenue and Valencia Avenue (APN: 1076-481-25). The "area of work" is a parcel of approximately 36,270 square feet (0.83 acre) that is presently developed with a 7,232 square foot retail building principally occupied by Blockbuster; and f. With the exception of the Montessori Academy daycare/private school facility at the northeast corner of Haven Avenue and Valencia Avenue,the shopping center is bound on all sides by residential development; and g. The zoning of the center is Neighborhood Commercial (NC) District, Terra Vista Community Plan. The zoning of the properties to the north and east is Low-Medium (LM) Residential District, Terra Vista Community Plan. The zoning of the properties to the south is Medium (M)and Low-Medium (LM) Residential District, Terra Vista Community Plan. The zoning of the properties to the west is Low (L) and Low-Medium (LM) Residential District; and h. The existing combined gross floor area of the buildings within the shopping center is approximately 135,000 square feet. Following the completion of the project,the combined gross floor area will be reduced to approximately 132,000 square feet; and i. The proposal is to demolish the existing retail building and in its place construct a fuel station comprised of a kiosk of 179 square feet, an overhead canopy of approximately 3,480 square feet, and five (5)fuel dispensers with one fueling position on either side of each for a total of ten (10) fueling positions. The proposal does not include a convenience store; and j. This application is in conjunction with Development Review DRC2010-00348D and Tree Removal Permit DRC2010-00578; and k. There are 710 parking stalls within the shopping center. The parking requirement for the shopping center is 608 parking stalls based on a calculation of 4.5 stalls per 1,000 square feet of floor area. The proposed project includes the demolition of the existing building which will reduce the overall floor area of the shopping center. Also, eighteen (18) parking stalls will be removed, which will leave 692 parking stalls remaining. The parking requirement for the shopping center following the completion of the project will be 576 parking stalls. 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. The proposed development is in accord with the General Plan,the objectives of the Development Code and the Terra Vista Community Plan, and the purposes of the district in which the site is located. The proposed project is a fuel station comprised of a kiosk of 179 square feet, an overhead canopy of approximately 3,480 square feet, and five (5) fuel dispensers with one fueling position on either side of each for a total of ten (10) fueling positions. The underlying General Plan designation is Neighborhood Commercial. b. The proposed development,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 project site is vacant; the proposed land use is consistent with the land uses within the shopping center where it is located, and the expectations of the community. The zoning of the properties to the north and east is Low-Medium (LM) Residential District, Terra Vista Community Plan.

The zoning of the properties to the west is Low (L) and Low-Medium (LM) Residential District. C. The proposed development complies with each of the applicable provisions of the Development Code and the Terra Vista Community Plan. The proposed development otherwise meets all standards outlined in the Development Code and the Terra Vista Community Plan and the design and development standards and policies of the Planning Commission and the City. 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("CEQK)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 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.
