Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above-referenced public hearing June 8, 2011, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The application is for a site that is located on the south side of Banyan Street and 1,220 feet east of East Avenue and is made up of two approved tract maps for a total of 63 lots, SUBTT17651 — 56 lots on 40 acres approved August 9, 2006 and SUBTT18708 — 7 lots on 5 acres approved April 14, 2010; and b.

The site is located within the Very Low Development District of the Etiwanda Specific Plan and within the Equestrian Overlay District. The lots range in size from 20,109 to 47,218 square feet and will be developed entirely with single-story residences ranging in size from 3,084 to 4,049 square feet; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 11-25 DEVELOPMENT REVIEW DRC2011-00028— K. HOVNANIAN COMMUNITIES JUNE 8, 2011 Page 2 d. The project was designed to conform to all the development requirements outlined in the Etiwanda Specific Plan for the Very Low Residential District. 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 project is consistent with the General Plan, Development Code, and any applicable specific plans, and b. The proposed design or improvements are consistent with the General Plan, Development Code, and any applicable specific plans; and C. The site is physically suitable for the type of development proposed; and d.

Based upon the facts and information contained in the application, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application, the Planning Commission finds that no subsequent or supplemental environmental document is required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in connection with the review and approval of this application based upon the following findings and determinations: a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the City adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration on August 9; 2006 and April 14, 2010 in connection with the City's approval of Tentative Tract Map SUBTT17651 and SUBTT18708. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, no subsequent or supplemental EIR or Negative Declaration is required in connection with subsequent discretionary approvals of the same project unless: (i) substantial changes are proposed to the project that indicate new or more severe impacts on the environment; (ii) substantial changes have occurred in the circumstances under which the project was previously reviewed that indicates new or more severe environmental impacts; or (iii) new important information shows the project will have new or more severe impacts than previously considered; or (iv) additional mitigation measures are now feasible to reduce impacts or different mitigation measures can be imposed to substantially reduce impacts. b. The Planning Commission finds, in connection with Tentative Tract Maps SUBTT17651 and SUBTT18708, that substantial changes to the project or the circumstances surrounding the project have not occurred, which would create new or more severe impacts than those evaluated in the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration. In that the applicant proposes building 63 single-family residences on the previously approved 56 lot (SUBTT17651) and 7 lot (SUBTT18708) Tentative Tract Maps. Staff further finds that the project will not have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous Mitigated Negative Declaration, not have more severe effects than previously analyzed, and that additional or different mitigation measures are not required to reduce the impacts of the project to a level of less-than-significant. In that the previously approved lots are surrounded by existing single-family residential development and the proposed residences meet all development criteria outlined in the Etiwanda Specific Plan and the City's Development Code.
