State law prohibits the Committee from addressing any issue not previously included on the Agenda. The Committee may receive testimony and set the matter for a subsequent meeting. Comments are limited to five minutes per individual. ADJOURNMENT I, Gail Elwood, Office Specialist II for the City of Rancho Cucamonga, hereby certify that a true, accurate copy of the foregoing agenda was posted on May 14, 2009, at least 72 hours prior to the meeting per Government Code Section 54954.2 at 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga. • DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 7:00 p.m. Mike Smith May 19, 2009 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND DEVELOPMENT REVIEW DRC2007-00247 — JWDA - A proposal to construct a 27,000 square foot office/warehouse building on a vacant property of 1.7 acre in the General Industrial (GI) District, Subarea 6, located at the southwest corner of Arrow Route and Utica Avenue - APN: 0209-491-05. Staff has prepared a Mitigated Negative Declaration of environmental impacts for consideration. Design Parameters: The project site is a rectangular parcel of about 74,226 square feet (1.7 acre) about 162 feet (east to west) by about 317 feet (north to south). The site is vacant and is dominated by short grasses; there are no trees on the property. The property is bound on the east by Utica Avenue and on the north by Arrow Route. The site is bound on the south by a property that is improved with eight office buildings, with a combined floor area of about 53,000 square feet. To the north and east, are small industrial buildings of various sizes. The property to the west is vacant. The zoning of the property and the properties to the south is Industrial Park (IP) District, Subarea 6. The zoning of the properties to the east and north are General Industrial (GI) District, Subarea 8, and Industrial Park (IP) District, Subarea 7, respectively. The subject property is generally level with an elevation at the north and south sides of about 1,157 feet and 1,151 feet, respectively. The applicant proposes to construct an office and warehouse distribution building of approximately 27,000 square feet. The tenant for this building warehouses and distributes tires. The office area will be located at the northwest corner of the building with the warehouse located in the south half of the building. The primary loading area will be inside the building and accessed via a roll-up door on the south side of the building — trucks will actually enter the building for loading. Although there will be no exterior dock doors, there is an outdoor loading area located adjacent to a second roll-up door. Both of these doors will face the south, and the loading and circulation area will be screened by a wall and gates. Access to the site will be via a single driveway at Utica Avenue. There will be an additional driveway at Utica closer to Arrow Route which will be for Fire Department access only. The building is required to have 57 parking stalls; 59 parking stalls will be provided. The landscape coverage is 20.5 percent; the minimum requirement is 15 percent for this development district. The proposed building will be of concrete tilt-up construction painted with a palette of three colors. An additional primary material will be granite tile applied to the corners of the building (except at the southwest corner) with glass panels serving as a secondary material. Generous amounts of glass have been provided at the office areas and at various locations along the wall planes of the building. Key features include vertical elements located at intermediate points along the primary wall planes that interrupt the wall plane with thin form-lined concrete insets and vertically arranged glass panels — particularly along the East Elevation. Where glass has been provided, there are also concrete accents that 'frame' the glass panel. These accents punctuate the application of glass and provide shaded relief. At some of the corners, including the office entrance, there will be metal canopies. The greatest degree of wall articulation will occur at the corners of the building. Along the top of the edge of the parapet, the applicant has proposed a concrete cornice punctuated at equal intervals with raised 'keys' that are higher and project further out from the wall plane than the cornice. Staff Comments: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion. Major Issues: The following broad design issues will be the focus of Committee discussion regarding this project. DRC AGENDA DRC2007-00247 May 19, 2009 Page 2 1. Provide granite tile at the southwest corner to match and balance the other corners of the building. 2. Remove the second 'tier' of concrete trim located at the south and west faces of the southwest corner as the area they `frame' do not have any glass panels like the other locations. 3. Center the square foam features at the intersection of score lines. Also, duplicate this feature on the north and south elevations. 4. The color of all metal canopies shall all be green. Secondary Issues: Once all of the major issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues. 1. The landscaping at the northeast corner of the site shall be intensified to ensure that the presence of the parking lot immediately adjacent to this corner is minimized. 2. The Southern California Edison transformer box shall be moved to the northwest corner of the site away from its currently proposed location at the highly visible northeast corner. 3. The Double Detector Check (DDC) and Fire Department Connection (FDC) shall be moved to the southeast corner of the site away from its currently proposed location in the middle of the Utica Avenue frontage. 4. A concrete curb and gutter shall be constructed at the perimeter of the paved area located at the southwest corner of the site to protect the edge of the project site and to ensure adequate drainage. Policy Issues: The following items are a matter of Planning Commission policy and should be incorporated into the project design without discussion. 1. All groundmounted equipment and utility boxes including transformers, back-flow devices, etc. shall be screened by a minimum of two rows of shrubs spaced a minimum of 18 inches on center. This equipment shall be painted forest green. 2. All Double Detector Checks (DDC) and Fire Department Connections (FDC) shall be placed 5 feet from the right-of-way and shall be screened on three sides behind a 4-foot high wall designed to match the building. 3. The employee lunch area shall have an overhead trellis with cross members spaced no more than 18 inches on center with minimum dimensions of 4 inches by 12 inches. Also, each support column shall have a decorative base that incorporates the architectural finishes/trim used on the building such as sandblasted bases. The trellis shall be painted to match the building. 4. All wrought iron fences and sliding gates shall be painted black or a similarly dark color. 5. Incorporate undulating berms along the street frontages (where applicable), within the landscape setback and landscape areas. The highest part of the berms should be at least 3 feet in height. DRC AGENDA DRC2007-00247 May 19, 2009 Page 3 6. Decorative paving shall be provided at the Utica Avenue vehicular access point onto the site. 7. All doors (roll-up, dock doors, emergency access) shall be painted to match the color of the adjacent wall or glass panel. 8. Provide durable street furniture in outdoor employee eating area, such as tables, chairs, waste receptacles. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the project be approved, subject to the revisions above which can be verified by staff, and forwarded to the Planning Commission for review and action.

Design Parameters: The applicant is proposing a Uniform Sign Program for an existing commercial retail center located on the south side Foothill Boulevard between Archibald Avenue and Malachite Avenue. The two buildings total 24,840 square feet of multi-tenant commercial building space. Building "A," which is 13,860 square feet and faces north towards Foothill Boulevard is set back for the street over 200 feet and Building "B," which is 10,980 square feet faces east but has one tenant that faces Foothill Boulevard at the front setback line. The sign program is being established to remove the existing can signs on the now dated rectangle facade. It will require the new signs to be individual channel letters that will be installed on the new facade which will incorporate the Route 66 theme into the building to be consistent with the surrounding buildings, such as the McDonalds and historic gas station on Foothill Boulevard near Archibald Avenue. This program consists of one monument sign located on Foothill Boulevard with three identification panels on each side. The applicant's proposal provides for a good design of the monument sign that reinforces the character of the design of the buildings without detracting from them. The face area of the monument sign is 24 square feet, and the overall sign height is 8 feet. The minimum letter height is 8 inches. The sign program allows for each business to have a total of one sign and possibly a space on the monument sign except the north end tenant on Building "B" and the east end tenant on Building "A," which could have two building identification signs and a spot on the monument sign. In no case may a tenant have more than three signs total. The maximum height of the letters on the building identification sign will be 24 inches, with no more than two lines of copy not to exceed 36 inches and a maximum width of 70 percent of the linear business lease space. The maximum sign area can not exceed 10 percent of the building face area and not to exceed 150 square feet. For two line copies on a building identification sign, a 4-inch gap must be provided between the lines. Staff 'Comments: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for the Committee discussion regarding this project. Major Issues: The applicant worked hard with staff to follow the City's Sign Ordinance and comply with the design criteria outlined in the Development Code. There are no major issues regarding this project at this time. Staff recommendation: Staff recommends that the Design Review Committee recommend approval of the Uniform Sign Program.

Related Files: Variance DRC2008-00462 and Uniform Sign Program DRC2008-01014. VARIANCE DRC2008-00462 - BLAKE MIRAGLIA & JIMMY SEALE - A variance request for reduced parking setback from 45 feet to 25 feet and building setback from 25 feet to 22 feet on Foothill Boulevard and San Bernardino Road and for a maximum height limit increase from 20 feet to a maximum of 26 feet because of an odd, triangular-shaped.lot and grade changes in conjunction with Development Review DRC2007-00657. UNIFORM SIGN PROGRAM DRC2008-01014 - RC66 PLAZA LLC - A USP for RC 66 Plaza for a monument sign and building identification signs at the southwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and San Bernardino Road. Related Files: Variance DRC2008-00462 and Development Review DRC2007-00657. Desiqn Parameters: The applicant is proposing to construct a multi-tenant commercial retail building at the southwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and San Bernardino Road. This site is a triangular-shaped parcel on the south side of Foothill Boulevard in the Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan, Subarea 1, Mixed-Use Commercial District. A Variance application DRC2007-00462 for the building setback and a Uniform Sign Program Application DRC2008-01014 are also being processed concurrently with this application. The proposal is to construct a 3,700 square foot building on a vacant triangular-shaped .55-acre parcel. The proposal is following the Route 66 theme and has a Mediterranean Revival Style Architecture with low pitched roofs, simple ornamental wrought iron details, and stucco walls. The building will be a single-story three tenant building with a maximum roof height of 26 feet for the tower elements. The height limit for a single-story building adjacent to Foothill Boulevard within this district is 20 feet but could be increased if the building is moved further back from Foothill Boulevard. The Variance request is to allow for the architectural elements to remain without having to move the building back because of the site configuration. The building is situated along a reduced setback on Foothill Boulevard that should be 25 feet for a single-story building. The applicant is requesting that it be reduced to 22 feet for a 6-foot area; the rest of the building is at the required 25-foot setback. The trash enclosure and parking area are also at a 25-foot setback because of the configuration of the parcel, but the parking area is required to be at 45 feet; this could not be achieved with the triangular-shaped lot. The parking area contains 15 parking stalls to meet the required parking ratio for a retail building. The landscape is proposed to have artificial turf for the ground cover and various types of plants in the planter areas. The landscape and hardscape design conform to the Route 66 Visual Improvement Plan for this site. The Uniform Sign Program addresses the location of the signs on the building and the monument sign. The signs on the building will be individual channel letters with a designated space to be located on the DRC AGENDA DRC2007-00657, DRC2008-00462, AND DRC2008-01014 May 19, 2009 Page 2 • building. The monument sign will allow an area for all three tenants on it. It will resemble a portion of one of the elevations from the building and be located along Foothill Boulevard. The letters on the building identification signs will not exceed 18 inches in height. If a single user occupies the building, a total of three signs will be allowed for that use. No more than two lines of copy per sign are allowed, and in no case shall the overall sign exceed 36 inches in height. Staff Comments: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for the Committee discussion regarding this project. Major Issues: The applicant worked diligently with staff to follow the criteria outlined in the Development Code. There are no major issues regarding this project at this time. Staff recommendation: Staff recommends that the Design Review Committee recommend approval of this application to the Planning Commission.
