(c) This amendment conflicts with the Land Use Policies of the
General Plan and will not provide for development within the district in a
manner consistent with the General Plan and with related development; and
(d) This amendment does not promote the goals and objectives of
the Land Use Element; and
(e) The properties located in Subarea A of this application are
not suitable for the uses permitted in the proposed land use designation and
are not compatible with existing and adjacent land use designations as
evidenced by the mobile home park, flood control channel, and major divided
arterial bordering the subject properties on three sides; in addition, there
are no existing single family land use designations in the immediate vicinity,
therefore, the proposed land use designation of Low-Medium Residential would
create an isolated neighborhood; and
(f) This amendment would not have significant impacts on the
environment nor on the surrounding properties as evidenced by the conclusions
and findings of the Environmental Assessment; and
3. This Commission hereby finds that the project has been reviewed
and considered in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act of
1970 and, further, if the project is approved, this Commission hereby
recommends issuance of a Negative Declaration.
4. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs
1, 2, and 3 above, this Commission hereby resolves to recommend denial of
General Plan Amendment 92-02, Subarea A, to amend the General Plan Land Use
Map from Medium Residential (8-14 dwelling units per acre) to Low-Medium
Residential (4-8 dwelling units per acre) for 5.71 acres of land located on
the south side of Foothill Boulevard, west of the Cucamonga Creek as shown in
Exhibit "A."
5. The Secretary to this Commission shall certify to the adoption
of this Resolution.
APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 26TH DAY OF FEBRUARY 1992.
