Said properties are currently designated as Medium Residential (8-14 dwelling units per acre) ; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 128 GPA 91-02B, SUBAREA 5 - CITY OF R.C. August 28, 1991 Page 2 (b) The property to the northwest of the subject site is designated freeway and is the Ontario (I-15) Freeway. The property to the east is designated Low Medium Residential and is underdeveloped with single family residences facing Miller Avenue and on the opposite side of East Avenue it is designated Office (OFC) in the City of Fontana's West End Specific Plan. The property to the south on the opposite side of Miller Avenue is designated Medium Residential and is vacant. (c) This amendment may conflict with the Land Use Policies of the General Plan and may not provide for development, within the district, in a manner consistent with the General Plan and with related development; and (d) This amendment may not promote the goals and objectives of the Land Use Element; and (e) This amendment would not be materially injurious or detrimental to the adjacent properties and would not have a significant impact on the environment nor the surrounding properties, but land use incompatibilities may result. 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) That the properties located in Subarea 5 of the application are not suitable for the uses permitted in the proposed district and are incompatible with existing and adjacent land use designations as evidenced by the site's being bordered on the northwest by the I-15 freeway; and (b) That the proposed amendment would not have significant impacts on the environment nor on the surrounding properties as evidenced by the findings and conclusions listed in Parts I and II of the Initial Environmental Study, but land use incompatibilities may result; and (c) That the proposed amendment may not be in conformance with the General Plan due to the potential of establishing incompatible land use relationships with single family uses and significant vehicular traffic of the adjacent freeway. 4. This Commission hereby finds that the project has been reviewed and considered in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970. However, this Commission does not recommend issuance of a Negative Declaration because the land use change may not promote the goals and objectives of the General Plan. 5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above, this Commission hereby resolves that on the 28th day of August 1991, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga hereby recommends denial of General Plan Amendment No. 91-02B, Subarea 5.
