A. Recitals.
(i ) The William Lyon Company has filed an application for the
Victoria Community Plan Amendment No. 87-02 as described in the title of this
Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the subject Community Plan
Amendment request is referred to as "the application".
(ii ) On September 9, 1987, the Planning Commission of the City of
Rancho Cucamonga conducted a duly noticed public hearing on the application
and concluded said hearing on that date.
(iii ) All legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution
have occurred.
B. Resolution.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby found, determined and resolved by the
Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows:
1. This Commission hereby specifically finds that all of the facts
set forth in the Recitals, Part A, of this Resolution are true and correct.
2. Based upon substantial evidence presented to this Commission
during the above-referenced public hearing on September 9, 1987, including
written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this
Commission hereby specifically finds as follows:
(a) The application applies to property located at the
northwest corner of Victoria Park Lane and Milliken Avenue with a street
frontage of 1183.21 feet along Milliken Avenue and lot depth of 732 feet and
is presently vacant; and
(b) The property to the north is zoned for commercial uses and
is currently vacant. The property to the south, east, and west is zoned for
residential uses. The property to the east and west is presently vacant. The
property to the south is being developed with single family residences.
(c) That one of the elements that makes the Planned Community
superior to other development is the variation in residential housing types
within each village and the Planned Community as a whole. The amendment will
not provide for the development of attached multi-family units as was
originally provided for in the Community Plan thereby eliminating variation in
the unit type within the Groves Village.

(d) An objective of the General Plan is to allow and create
new oppportunities which enable a broad range of housing types, site designs,
construction methods, and maintain a balanced supply of ownership and rental
units. With the proposed change in density, the opportunity to develop
attached multi-family units will not be possible within Grove Village and will
be reduced within the Victoria Planned Community.
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 paragraph 1 and 2 above, this Commission hereby finds and
concludes as follows:
(a) That the Amendment will not provide for development
of a comprehensively planned urban community within
the District that is superior to development
otherwise allowable under alternate regulations.
(b) That the Amendment will not provide for development
within the District in a manner consistent with the
General Plan and with related development and growth
management policies of the City; and
4. This Commission hereby finds and certifies that the project has
been reviewed and considered in compliance with the California Environmental
Quality Act of 1970 and, further, this Commission hereby recommends issuance
