Related file: Pre-Application Review DRC2007-00733 and Minor Exception DRC2009-00360. The project qualifies as a Class 2 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15302 - Replacement or Reconstruction. Background: This application was previously reviewed by the Design Review Committee on August 17, 2010. The Committee reviewed the application and deemed it acceptable to forward to the Planning Commission for review and action. The Committee concluded that the architecture of the building, including revisions proposed by the applicant, was consistent with the character of the surrounding neighborhood and the Craftsman theme (Exhibit A). The only remaining issue that needed to be resolved was how to ensure compatibility with the surrounding development consistent with Section 17.10.060(C)(1)(j) — Master Planning — of the Development Code. At the direction of staff, the applicant provided an east to west drive aisle that extends the full width of the property and terminates at the east property line shared with the vacant property to the east (APN: 0202-161-09). Upon future development of that property, this drive aisle would connect with the drive aisle and parking area of the future development. This would allow that property owner secondary access to Amethyst Avenue and, conversely, allow the project site secondary access to Base Line Road (Exhibit B). The applicant responded that his client was willing to provide access but was not willing to provide an access easement. The applicant requested to be allowed to provide an access agreement as opposed to an access easement as a means of ensuring reciprocal access for the property to the east. The Committee approved this solution provided that the agreement was acceptable to the City Attorney. Subsequently, staff forwarded to the City Attorney a draft of the access agreement prepared by the applicant (Exhibit C). After reviewing the document, the attorney determined that the draft access agreement as submitted was not acceptable. He indicated that the document that was submitted was not sufficient for the purpose of ensuring access by the property owner to the east as it was neither comprehensive enough nor enforceable. In the interim period between then and now, staff and the applicant exchanged correspondence and conducted a meeting to further discuss the issue. The applicant indicated that they do not want to provide an easement or agreement in the absence of knowing what type of development would occur on the neighboring property (Exhibit D). Staff indicated to the applicant that an access easement/agreement is required for three general reasons: 1. Eliminate the need for delivery vehicles having to enter the property in reverse (or exit in reverse) which may disrupt traffic flow and potentially be a safety issue. There is only one drive access proposed to the property, and there is insufficient turnaround space on the property to allow a delivery truck to enter and exit the property in the forward direction; DRC ACTION AGENDA DRC2008-00909— NASSEFF ESKANDER (FOR ALTA LOMA ANIMAL HOSPITAL) April 19, 2011 Page 2 • 2. Minimize the potential for multiple driveways along Base Line Road, ensure efficient traffic flow, and eliminate unnecessary paving that could otherwise be landscaping; and 3. Allow integrated commercial development with the adjacent properties. During the neighborhood meeting conducted on June 30, 2010, one of the principal issues raised by one of the attendees was the delivery truck and the manner in which it entered/exited the subject property (this is consistent with the first reason indicated by staff above). The solution to the issue was that eventually a continuous drive aisle would be provided in the future that would connect Amethyst Avenue and Base Line Road. This solution was acceptable to those in attendance. As the applicant does not want to do this, staff noted that a turnaround on-site would have to be provided. As an alternate solution, the applicant suggested limiting the type of the delivery vehicle to a size that would allow parking in a regular parking stall (as opposed to the delivery currently in use Exhibit E). This would eliminate the need for a turnaround which would require revisions to the parking area which, in turn, could reduce the number of proposed parking stalls. Staff is resubmitting the project for Committee review for its consideration of this issue only and discussion of possible alternatives as the Design Review Committee's condition of approval is not being fulfilled. • Staff Comments: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee discussion. 1. Does the Committee accept the project without an easement or access agreement in favor of the property to the east? Note: the applicant's solution to utilize smaller delivery vehicles cannot be enforced as the application is not a Conditional Use Permit, i.e. there will not be any opportunity to review compliance of conditions of approval following commencement of operations. In the event of non-compliance, there will not be a penalty for the "violation" or a means for ensuring that the "violation" is corrected. 2. If the Committee accepts the applicant's solution, then the proposed drive aisle connection to the property to the east should be eliminated, and a continuous planter area (with trees and ground cover) and a block wall shall be provided in its place. 3. If the Committee accepts the applicant's solution, does the Committee want a turnaround to be provided on the project site or is the use of a regular parking stall acceptable? Note: a turnaround will require revisions to the proposed parking area. Staff Recommendation: Staff requests direction on this matter. The project is otherwise unchanged. The project can be forwarded to the Planning Commission for review and action provided the solution offered by the applicant is acceptable. Design Review Committee Action: The Committee discussed with the applicant the purpose for providing access to the neighboring property to the east and the reasons why an easement or access agreement is required. The applicant stated that his client was willing to provide a physical connection, i.e. a drive aisle that will connect with any future drive aisle on the neighboring property, but that he was unwilling to provide a legal document to ensure it citing the concerns noted DRC ACTION AGENDA DRC2008-00909 — NASSEFF ESKANDER (FOR ALTA LOMA ANIMAL HOSPITAL) April 19, 2011 Page 3 above. Additionally, the applicant indicated that he was uncertain of the required content of the agreement that would be comprehensive and enforceable. He also was concerned about the review process for such a document. The Committee advised the applicant to consult an attorney. The Committee reaffirmed their position that an access agreement acceptable to the City Attorney is a condition of approval. They stated that the applicant had the option of advancing to the Planning Commission for review, but in the absence of an access agreement, it would be without a recommendation of approval by the Committee. The applicant stated he would consult with his client and decide what to do next. Members Present: Munoz, Wimberly, Granger • Staff Planner Mike Smith • • • DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS 7:00 p.m. Mike Smith August 17, 2010 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND DEVELOPMENT/DESIGN REVIEW DRC2008-00909 - NASSEF ESKANDER (FOR ALTA LOMA ANIMAL HOSPITAL) - A proposal to demolish an existing veterinarian office and construct a new veterinarian office and commercial retail building on a property of 25,705 square feet in the General Commercial (GC) District, located at the northeast corner of Base Line Road and Amethyst Avenue at 7289 Amethyst Avenue. The proposed project includes incorporating an existing residence to the north of the site at 7271 Amethyst Avenue as part of the project—APN: 0202-161-10, -11, and -20. Related Files: Pre-Application Review DRC2007-00733, Minor Exception DRC2009-00360, and Uniform Sign Program DRC2009-00697. This item was originally scheduled for review by the Committee on July 6, 2010. At the applicant's request, this item was postponed to August 17, 2010. Design Parameters: The project site is comprised of three (3) parcels with a combined area of 25,705 feet (0.59-acre). Overall the project site is approximately 158 feet deep (north to south) and approximately 165 feet wide (east to west). The project site is developed with four (4) structures – a veterinarian hospital located in two buildings of 2,308 and 760 square feet (Buildings 1 and 2, respectively); a single-family residence of 745 square feet; and a garage of 201 square feet. Vegetation on-site is limited to low grasses and a few trees, To the north, are single-family residences. To the south, across Base Line Road, is a senior assisted living facility and to the west, across Amethyst Avenue, is an office/commercial building and a single-family residence. The property to the east is vacant. The zoning of the property and the properties to the east, west, and north is General Commercial (GC) District. The zoning of the properties to the south is Office/Professional (OP) District. The topography of the site is generally level with an elevation of approximately 1,376 feet at the north side of the site and approximately 1,370 feet at the south side. As the project site is comprised of three (3) parcels, the applicant will be required to submit an application to combine the lots as a condition of approval. The applicant, on behalf of his client, proposes to demolish the two (2) buildings (identified by staff as Buildings 1 and 2 for clarity) occupied by the veterinarian hospital and construct one new building of 5,710 square feet in its place. The veterinarian hospital will be relocated to this building, and as it will occupy 4,815 square feet of the building, will be the primary tenant. The remaining 895 square feet of floor area of the new building will be for an unspecified retail tenant. The existing garage will be demolished, and the existing single-family residence will be converted for office use only. In order to allow the veterinarian hospital to operate with minimum interruption, the new building will be constructed in two (2) phases. During Phase 1, Building 2 will be demolished first and approximately 4,700 square feet of the new building will be constructed. The veterinarian hospital will then be relocated, and during Phase 2, Building 1 will be demolished and the remaining 1,000 square feet of the new building will be constructed. Additional site improvements include a new parking lot, new landscaping, new property line walls/fences, and the removal of the existing driveway at Amethyst Avenue, which is currently 75 feet north of the intersection of Base Line Road and Amethyst Avenue, and the construction of a new one that will be approximately 120 feet from the intersection. The parking requirement for the new building and the converted office will be 31 parking stalls. The project will have only 24 parking stalls because of the size of the site and the presence of the existing structures. To address this deficiency, the applicant has submitted an application for a Minor Exception (Related File: DRC2009-00360) which, if approved, permits a reduction of up to 25 percent in the parking requirement. EXHIBIT A DRC ACTION AGENDA DRC2008-00909 - NASSEF ESKANDER (FOR ALTA LOMA ANIMAL HOSPITAL) August 17, 2010 Page 2 To ensure compatibility with the surrounding development and consistency with Section 17.10.060(C)(1)(j) — Master Planning — of the Development Code, at the direction of staff, the applicant has provided an east to west drive aisle that extends the full width of the property and terminates at the east property line shared with the vacant property to the east (APN: 0202-161-09). Upon future development of that property, this drive aisle will connect with the drive aisle and parking area of the future development. This will allow that property owner secondary access to Amethyst Avenue, and conversely, allow the project site secondary access to Base Line Road. Note: The applicant has indicated that his client is willing to provide access but is not willing to provide an access easement. At a Pre-Application Workshop (Related File: DRC2007-00733) held on March 12, 2008, the proposal was reviewed by the Planning Commission (Attachment A). The Commissioners generally favored the concept of the'project. They emphasized to the applicant that the architecture of the proposed building should be sensitive to the historic character of the surrounding neighborhood and consideration given to the location of the site at the "gateway" of, and relationship to, the historic Old Alta Loma neighborhood. The applicant was directed to incorporate Craftsman-style elements to the building. . Additionally, it was suggested that the applicant review the architectural elements used on the Sunrise Assisted Living facility (Related File: Development Review DR99-32), located directly across the street. The architecture of the proposed building reflects the direction provided by the DRC Committee as noted above. The proposed building will be of wood-frame construction and will be similar in appearance to the buildings in the general area, including the single-family residences and the assisted living facility across the street (Attachment B). The building will incorporate key elements of the Craftsman style: a mixed combination of a hip and gable roof that varies in height and form; wainscots on all elevations finished with river rock; numerous column elements finished with river rock; building walls finished alternately with stucco or horizontal wood siding; exposed decorative rafter tails; and wood beams. The building will be painted with a palette of three basic colors. Glass will be provided on all elevations. Along the entire south side of the building, and over the south entrances, there will be a large roof overhang supported by columns that will provide a strong visual statement along Base Line Road. Secondarily, this overhang will provide shade along the sunward south elevation. At the north entrances, there will be a set of prominent gable roof overhangs that will provide a focal point as seen from the parking lot. At the west entrance of the retail space, there will a gable roof and a small overhead trellis. Through the use of these elements, the building will be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood and enhance and emphasize the character of the Old Alta Loma community. 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. 1. The Committee should review the applicant's concern regarding the provision of an access easement through his property in favor of the property owner to the east and the importance of successful master planning. • 2. The color scheme of the new building and the house (that will be converted to an office) shall match. This includes the color of the wood siding, the fascia boards, exposed rafters, beams, and the roofing tile. • DRC ACTION AGENDA DRC2008-00909 - NASSEF ESKANDER (FOR ALTA LOMA ANIMAL HOSPITAL) August 17, 2010 Page 3 3. The color scheme on the building shall be consistent. The color of the roof, rafters, fascia, trellis, and stucco are "warm," while the colors of the river rock, trim caps, and wood siding are "cool." Revise the color scheme to be either all "warm" or all "cool." 4. The overhead members of the trellis feature are proposed to be constructed of wood. The Committee has indicated in the past a preference for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) for durability. The Committee may want to consider and allow the use of wood for this project for consistency with the wood rafter tails and exposed wood beams. 5. In order to reflect authentic Craftsman-style architecture, all columns (square and cylindrical) should be modified to be battered. 6. The roof of the building is proposed to be rust-colored 'S'-tile roofing. This type of roofing tile is not consistent with the Craftsman style architecture. Flat concrete (or equivalent) roofing tile shall be used instead, 7. The fenestration selections (doors and windows) should be modified to reflect authentic Craftsman style architecture. 8. At the north and south elevations, there is vertical wood siding under two sets of gable roof elements. The rest of the building is designed with horizontal wood siding, which makes the vertical wood siding appear awkward. In order to reflect authentic Craftsman-style architecture, the vertical wood siding should be modified to shingle siding. 9. The materials of the existing house that will be converted to an office shall be refinished to match the proposed building. At a minimum, the refinishing should include a river rock wainscot around the base of the porch. Secondary Issues: Once all of the major issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues. 1. Trees shall be planted in areas of public view adjacent to and along the structure at an equivalent of one tree per 30 linear feet of building, which has public exposure per Section 17.10.040(C)(3)(a) of the Development Code. Provide two trees along the east side of the building. • 2. The landscaping at the southwest corner of the site, near the intersection, "frames" the entry into the Alta Loma neighborhood and is a focal point. Therefore, the landscaping at this location shall be enhanced with more elaborate, decorative ground cover and shrubs. 3. Install windows instead of constructing decorative tile features on either side of the west entrance to the retail space. Policy Issues: The following items are a matter of Planning Commission policy and should be incorporated into the project design without discussion. • 1. All ground-mounted 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. DRC ACTION AGENDA DRC2008-00909 - NASSEF ESKANDER (FOR ALTA LOMA ANIMAL HOSPITAL) August 17, 2010 Page 4 2. The Double Detector Checks (DDC) and Fire Department Connections (FDC) shall be screened on three sides behind the 4-foot high metal mesh fence. This equipment shall be painted forest green. 3. Wherever river rock is proposed it shall be real river rock and not a manufactured veneer. 4. All wrought iron fences and sliding gates shall be painted black or a similarly dark color. 5. All doors (roll-up, dock doors, emergency access) shall be painted to match the color of the adjacent wall or glass panel. 6. The trash enclosure shall be constructed per City standard. The design of the trash enclosures shall incorporate the materials, finish, color, and trim used on the buildings. The proposed enclosure should, at a minimum, include a river rock wainscot. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the project be approved subject to the completion of the recommended revisions, to be verified by staff, and forwarded to the Planning Commission for review and action. Design Review Committee Action: The Committee reviewed the application and deemed it acceptable to forward to the Planning Commission for review and action. The Committee concluded that the architecture of the building was consistent with the character of the surrounding neighborhood and the Craftsman theme. The Committee discussed the major and secondary issues described in the Comments Report with the applicant. The applicant revised his proposal prior to the meeting to address the comments in the Comments Report. The revisions are as follows: • The colors used for the building will be cool, gray shades; • All of the columns will be battered; • The trellis feature will be constructed of composite wood, while the rafters will be constructed of real wood; • The roof tiles will be flat; and • • The vertical siding will be changed to horizontal siding. The Committee considered the applicant's request to provide an access agreement as opposed to an access easement as a means of ensuring reciprocal access for the property to the east; they approved that solution provided that the agreement was acceptable to the City Attorney. The applicant will prepare the document to be forwarded to the City Attorney. The applicant was directed not to put river rock on the existing residence. The decorative tile feature at the west elevation of the building will be replaced with wood siding. The applicant agreed to complete and comply with the policy issues. The final revisions will be submitted for staff review prior to scheduling of the item for Planning Commission review and action.

After careful review of your request with our Legal Consultant; please be advised with the following: • As we mentioned on our letter of intent submitted to the City on October, 2009, we are willing to provide a secondary access from our property to the eastern adjacent property (APN: 0202-161-09). This secondary access will serve both properties. Although, we don't know the future business in the adjacent property, we are willing to provide access from our property and this will have equal control from both property owners. • To honor an Easement to the eastern adjacent property will change the rules, regulations and liabilities governing this site access; i.e., the eastem property owner will have control over this access without our control or input. For this reason I am not willing to give this access in the form of an Easement to the eastern adjacent property. • If the City is insists for an "Easement", then it will be an easement from us to the City, so the City will be liable for any potential liabilities / problems generated or associated with this access. This letter is to confirm our position regarding this issue. If you have any questions, please call Mr. Nassef Eskander, AIA project architect at (626)233-1114 or my self at (714)608-1830 ...

We would like to present our position and hopefully secure our permit to immediately start on the construction of our project without any further delay. 4 Alta Loma Animal Hospital has been established in the City of Rancho Cucamonga over the past 50 years happily serving the residents of this beautiful city. 4The animal hospital has always used Amethyst Street as its address and never burdened Base Line with any of its patrons'traffic. Furthermore,the clients know us as the animal hospital on Amethyst. -Based on your specific request we have sacrificed our original construction plans in regards to the physical location of the new building and we have yielded to your demands and submitted the new plans according to your specific instructions and in coordination with your guidance moving the building away from the property line and maintaining a large open area behind our building. 4We hereby affirm our position, which we will not waver nor compromise; we are not willing to grant any easements or rights of way to our neighboring parcel owner onto our land. We refuse to allow the adjacent parcel owner to encroach on our land. We refuse to burden our land with traffic generated from the future development of our neighboring parcel owner onto our parcel. We shall not be a servient tenement to a dominant tenement that is currently nonexistent without any tangible plans from our neighboring parcel owner as to the nature of their future building. 4We hereby acknowledge our full cooperation with our neighbors and with you in particular. 'We have demonstrated our good intention by moving the physical location of our building from its original position to allow for future cooperation with the potential needs of our adjacent landowner. However, we refuse to be held hostage with our plans to benefit a neighboring landowner's potential construction which is illusionary in the meantime while we are in dire need of our new building to continue serving the community. Kindly, I hope we can finalize this promptly as I am anxious to begin construction to better serve our community. Should you have any questions, kindly contact me at(714) 608-1830.
