ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 86-23 AJA The
development of an office R and D Master Plan with a central tennis
facility on 18.55 acres of land in the Industrial Park District (Subarea
7) located between White Oak, Elm and Eucalyptus Avenues in the Rancho
Cucamonga Business Park - APN 208-351-29.
Design Parameters
This parcel is within the Rancho Cucamonga Business Park and all streets
on the perimeter of the Master Plan are improved (see Exhibit "C").
Parkway improvements will occur as each parcel in the Master Plan is
developed. The site is presently vacant and void of any significant
plant materials. All parcels directly north, south and west of the site
are undeveloped portions of the Business Park. East of the site are
industrial warehouse developments.
Staff Comments
A. Site Plan
I. Secondary access should be provided to Lots 4 and 5 through
reciprocal access onto Lots 3 or 6; and Lots 6 and 7 through
reciprocal access onto Lots 5 or 8.
2. The design of the Master Plan should emphasize pedestrian
orientation to the tennis facility. The future development for
each parcel shall have pedestrian access and orientation in the
way of plazas and/or lunch courts to the tennis facility or the
access easement {see Exhibit "B").
3. Walkways that cross drive aisles should use texturized materials
such as brick pavers.
4. An outdoor eating area and amenities should be included in the
common open space area (Lot 10).
B. Landscaping:
1. Landscaping treatment on the perimeter of the Master Plan should
include berming and specimen size trees.
2. Special landscape treatment such as accent trees and annual
color should be provided at all entrances to the project as well

DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS
6:30 - 7:00 Chris October 2, 1986
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 86-24 - AJA/SCHEU - The
development of two multi-tenant industrial buildings totaling 44,050
square feet on 3.44 acres of land in the Industrial Park, Subarea 6,
located at the northeast corner of Center Street and Enterprise Street -
APN 210-331-12, 13, 14, 19, 20, 21.
Design Paraeeters
The site is vacant, relatively flat, and no significant vegetation. The
properties to the southeast are developed.
Staff Com~nts
Site P1 an:
1. Additional pedestrian amenities should be provided to the office
entrance plaza area, such as raised seating benches, raised
planters, and/or free-standi ng planters.
2. The three parking spaces at the east end of Building A should be
el iminated to mitigate traffic conflict.
3. Texturized pedestrian connections should be provided throughout the
site to connect with the plaza areas and buildings.
4. Project entrance should have textured pavement such as brick pavers,
exposed aggregate, or a combination of them.
Elevations:
1. The proposed elevations show a monotonous horizontal roof line for
Buildings A and B. Vertical variations of the roof line should be
provided to create interest.
2. Oversize concrete columns should be provided to complement the size
of the building.
3. Textured bands, such as sandblasted material, should be provided for
the two buildings.
Landscaping:
1. Special landscaping treatment such as increased number of trees,
specimen size trees, and accent trees should be provided at all
project entrances.
2. Special landscaping treatment such as raised planters, free-standing
planters of exposed aggregate material, and tree wells should be
provided within the plaza areas of the building entrance area.

Oesign Review Cmmfittee Action
Members Present: Dennis Stout, Suzanne Chitlea
Staff Planner: Chris Westman
The Design Review Committee recommended approval of the project subject
to the following conditions:
1. Additional pedestrian amenities be provided to the office
entrance plaza areas in the form of integrated planter
areas and/or free standing planters.
2. Pedestrian access be provided from Trademark Street and
Enterprise Street and connect directly to the
employee/pedestrian plazas located on the north side of
Building A and the south side of Building B.
3. Texturized pedestrian connections and texturized pavement
at project entrances should be provided. Texturized
materials could be of exposed aggregate, color salt finish
concrete, brick paver or a combination of them.
4. Three parking spaces with east/west orientation located at
the northeast corner of the site should be reoriented to a
northwest orientation in order to eliminate possible
circulation conflicts.
B. In order to create vertical relief to the building
elevation and to screen future roof equipment from the
second floor inhabitants of a neighboring building, the
developer should add an angled roof screening element that
is integrated into the design of the building and is
similar to the existing southerly building.
6. The man doors along the service access corridor should be
painted with accent colors.
7. Special landscaping treatment to include accent trees,
specimen size trees, annuals, etc. should be provided at
the site intersections of Center and Enterprise and
Trademark and Center.
8. To mitigate views into the service corridor, dense
landscape treatment such as increased number of trees and
shrubs should be provided along the north and south site
perimeters.
DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS
7:00 - 7:30 Nancy October 2, 1986
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND CONDITIONN_ USE PERMIT 86-20 - WESTERN
PROPERTIES - The development of an Industrial Park consisting of six
buildings totaling 160,155 square feet on 12.9 acres of land in the
Office Park District of the Terra Vista Planned Community located at the
northeast corner of Elm Street and Town Center Drive- APN 1077-421-06,
1077-091-17.
Design Paraseters
The site is vacant; vegetation consists of decaying vineyards, and it
slopes from north to south at approximately 2-3%. The site is
surrounded to the northeast and southeast by multi-family development;
and, to the southwest and northwest by future Office Park development
and Community Commercial Development.
Land Use Issue
Related to this proposed project is the applicant's proposal to amend
the Tetra Vista Planned Community by establishing a Business Park
Overlay Zone in areas designated for Office, Commercial, or Mixed Use.
Subject to the approval of the Conditional Use Permit, the Business Park
Overlay Zone would permit such land uses as custom manufacturing, light
manufacturing, R and D, light wholesale, storage and distribution type
of land uses.
Staff is strongly opposed to the amendment because it would introduce
industrial type uses into a residential planned con~nunity. The proposed
Tetra Vista Planned Community Amendment, 86-02, has been tentatively
scheduled for October 8, 1986 regular Planning Commission meeting for
their review. Although land use is a policy issue that the full
Commission must decide, the Committee should understand that the
function of the buildings has a relationship to the design.
Staff Comments
Site Plan:
1. The proposed project is designed to encourage industrial andother
types of "incubator" uses which require roll-up doors and service
driveways. The doors are designedsuchthat they can be easily
replaced with windows asthe industrial park evolves over time into
an Office Park.
2. Site plan arrangement does not take advantage of the major Greenway
Trail on Elm Street. Further, the trail is shown with the minimum
30' width which appears consistent with the concept illustrated in
Figure IV-68 and IV-67, where linear portion of this greenway
typically should average 40 feet in width with a minimum width of 30
feet.
Design Review Comments
CUP 86-20 - Western Properties

3. Pedestrian crossing at the intersection of Elm Street and Church
Street should be provided to complement the local transit route as
shown in Figure IV-40.
4. Texturized pedestrian connections (exposed aggregate, brick pavers,
or a combination of both) should be provided throughout the site to
connect from major entrances to the plaza areas.
Elevations:
1. Does the proposed architecture provide for compatibility to the
surrounding residential development of the northeast and southeast
location?
2. The proposed elevations are designed with tilt-up concrete panels,
concrete columns, and shed roof. The roof line for all the
buildings shows one continuous horizontal line which could be
improved by providing vertical variation.
Landscaping:
1. Special landscaping treatment and hardscape should be provided to
the trails along Elm Street. It should include such things as
specimen size trees, increased number of trees, low decidious canopy
tree for shade, and evergreen trees; hardscape such as benches along
pedestrian paths to allow people to rest and visit, etc.
2. Special landscaping treatment shall be provided to all project
entrances and to the corners of the project site.
Design Review Committee Action
Members Present: Dennis Stout, Suzanne Chitiea
Staff Planner: Nancy Fong
The Committee stated that the land use issue must be considered by the
Planning Commission prior to their review on the project, as the design
is closely related to the use and function of the buildings. The
Committee recommended continuation of this item to the next regular
meeting (October 16, 1986 at 7:30 - 8:00).
