He noted a change in Resolution Number 12-24, page 95, under 2)Water Quality Management Plan, b) is eliminated along with the chart as it is no longer necessary. He also noted copies are on the dais for the Commissioners that • eliminates the words "of the property and" at the following locations: the Staff Report, page 2, paragraph C, 9`" sentence; Resolution 12-24, page 91, paragraph B., 2. d. second sentence; Resolution 12-25, page 119, 4. e. second sentence; and Resolution 12-26, page 126, 2. e. second sentence.

Commissioner Oaxaca asked about an opportunity for mitigation of noise measures in the future as in Resolution 12-24, in particular page 103, #2. Mr. Smith replied that is regarding interior noise levels and that might include special windows as a mitigation. Commissioner Fletcher asked Mr. Smith about the retaining walls and if there was a separation between the existing wall and the proposed one. Mr. Smith stated that the walls would be on top of each other, called a combination wall, with the lower wall a retaining wall and the upper is an attenuating wall. Commissioner Fletcher asked for further explanation on the west side walls of the proposed project. Mr. Smith showed details on the map on where the walls would be located and where the property lines were. He stated water needed to drain and showed where the retaining walls would be with the grading. He further stated that the retaining wall would be going from almost zero height to 4 to 6 feet high with the attenuating (screen) wall on top of that. • Chairman Munoz asked if the applicant would like to speak. Planning Commission Minutes -3- June 13, 2012 • • John Friedman, representing RBF and Associates, thanked staff. He stated that they started this project in 1998 with neighboring projects and a 2-acre temporary detention basin was added. Drainage issues onto Lima Drive made it difficult to design on the west property line. He went on to • say that they had a neighborhood meeting with neighbors requesting a terraced back wall and they are still working with staff to make sure that the retaining wall is there to address drainage and noise issues. He also stated that the City Engineer had discussions with Caltrans due to the close proximity of the 1-15 Freeway interchange with future changes a possibility. He stated that the City continues to own property south of the project and would hope the City would continue to consider a 4 foot slope away from the homes toward the 1-15 Freeway interchange. He did appreciate receiving fill dirt from close-by local projects to help with filling in the basin. Chairman Munoz opened the public hearing. Vivian Apodaca, resident of 7185 Acorn Place, stated that her home was directly behind the project. She is asking that all homes be back as far as possible on the lots for privacy and wanted to be sure that a single-story home would be built on Lot 1. Ernie Bankston, resident of 7159 Acorn Place, stated that he previously lived where there was 2 separate walls and that was not a positive experience with trees and leaves everywhere. He further stated that the 8 Eucalyptus trees on the property drop branches and leaves on their roofs and neighboring pools especially during the winds. He would like to have a variance so that he would not have to maintain the trees. He went on to say that he had no complaints on the project. Chairman Munoz had the applicant, Mr. Friedman, come forward to address the single-story issue. Mr. Friedman stated that it is clearly stated in Resolution 12-24 on page 94 that Lots 1 and 8 will have single-story homes. He also discussed the tree issue and noted that replacement trees would be required and showed on the overhead where the step down on the walls would occur. He went • on to discuss weed abatement. Chairman Munoz closed the public hearing. Mr. Smith showed a map of the location (Exhibit E of the Staff Report) of the proposed 6-foot wall on top of the 4-foot retaining wall along the west property line. He stated that the combination wall would not be terraced due to maintenance issues. Mr. Smith clarified that on page 94 of Resolution number 12-24, condition number 12 is the step down wall and condition number 13 is the wall that will be coordinated with the neighbors. Commissioner Oaxaca clarified that the property owners to the west will keep their existing walls and that a second wall is being added for noise attenuation. He noted the concerns of the residents regarding the space between the walls would be minimized as the homeowners might be unable to attend to the weeds and trash. Mr. Smith stated that the neighbors concerns were addressed with a terraced wall and the new wall will be east, parallel and adjacent to the current wall and not able to be seen from the current owners. He also stated that the City understood the neighbor's requests from the neighborhood meeting that they will have combination walls and not terraced walls. Chairman Munoz stated that it sounded like all of the issues had been dealt with adequately. Mr. Smith stated that on page 94 of Resolution 12-24, condition number 12, reiterates the step-down wall and coordination of the construction of the wall with the homeowners. • Planning Commission Minutes -4- June 13, 2012 • I Commissioner Oaxaca asked about when construction starts if the neighbors have any issues with their existing walls could the wall be replaced and have just a single wall. • Mr. Smith deferred to the applicant on that matter but did state that issue would be addressed at the time of building plans. Commissioner Oaxaca asked if the wall issues would be addressed again in the future with the builder's development plans. Mr. Smith stated that the City would be paying careful attention at that time and another neighborhood meeting would be held with more specific details at that time. He went on to state that the applicant is currently bringing in dirt and rough grading the land but that is all right now. Chairman Munoz stated that if there are no improvements planned then the design will be reviewed in the future including these issues at that time. Mr. Smith stated that yes the design would be brought up at the time when this or another developer is ready with the project and they will be required to follow the conditions of approval at that time. Commissioner Fletcher stated that they would receive more details during design review. He asked if there are any other adjacent walls currently in the City. Mr. Smith stated that in his experience most residents preferred terraced walls. He stated that they are rare, but as in-fill continues the City will have more of these instances. Commissioner Fletcher stated that if the space between the walls is not maintained there will be a lot of weeds and asked if the gap between the walls could be filled with something to help stop the • weeds and rodents. Mr. Smith stated that he knew of an instance where 2 screen walls were close together but that there is always a chance of weeds and that maybe caulking or another solution could be used to mitigate the problem. Chairman Munoz asked the applicant to respond. Mr. Friedman stated that he is not a home builder but that some companies have expressed interest in the property including Lewis Operating Corp, and said that after looking at the old plans the Apodaca's wall is actually into their property line. He stated that they will butt the two walls up together as close as possible to both neighbors homes. He further stated that it is difficult with grading to not injure another wall and that it is also hard to take down other walls and replace them especially with the existing backyard Jacuzzi and decking that is currently there. He anticipated that this will be discussed at the time of design review. Commissioner Fletcher stated that it sounded like all issues had been "hammered out" and everyone satisfied. Commissioner Wimberly stated that the solutions are good and the best for this location. Commissioner Oaxaca stated that there were challenges with this property and that staff went the extra mile to help all concerned. He went on to thank the residents for working on the best possible solutions and looked forward to a well designed project in the future. He further stated that it was a creative solution and thanked everyone involved. • • Planning Commission Minutes -5- June 13, 2012 .. Chairman Munoz concurred with all of the comments from the Commissioners.

Sweet and Associates on May 30, 2012. The report states that at peak demand it is estimated that the Plaza will only utilize 468 of the 511 parking spaces that are currently located on the site. The table below indicates what the require parking will be for the restaurant and bar. Number of Number of Square Parking Spaces Spaces Type of Use Footage Ratio Required Provided • Restaurant with Bar 7,597 1:100 76 76 and outdoor patios ANALYSIS: A. Background: The existing building was previously occupied by Bobby Baja's Restaurant and bar.

July 11, 2012 • Page 3 In addition to the Conditional Use Permit, the applicant has applied for an Entertainment Permit in order to allow live bands, dancing, a disc jockey and karaoke. The business will primarily operate as a restaurant during the day, and in the evening the restaurant will host a live band performance, while still offering a late night dining menu. The proposed hours of operation for the restaurant and bar are as follows: Hours of Operation Friday and Saturday: 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. Sundays through Thursday: 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. The proposed entertainment hours are as follows: Entertainment Type/Hours Monday through Sunday: 9:30 p.m. to close No entertainment will be provided in the outdoor patios.

Historic Resources: The Thomas Winery building where the restaurant will be located is a State and locally designated historic landmark. Historic artifacts such as the stairs to the • upper floor storage area and wine barrel near the kitchen are required to be inventoried by the applicant and preserved and maintained in place. Any change to these items requires a Certificate of Appropriateness to be filed and approved by the Historic Preservation Commission. The Historic Preservation Commission has also discussed the preservation of a wine conveyer currently located on the main floor of the building. The Historic Preservation Commission gave the Planning Director the authority to move towards a workable solution. Staff has advocated that the artifact be preserved and stored on site in the upper floor storage area. The new patio does not require a Certificate of Appropriateness because it will not alter or change the existing historic building. The new patio does not attach to the existing building in any way and utilizes materials that are used on the building and surrounding structures. The existing patio on the south side of the building is proposed to be _ reconstructed in-kind; therefore, it does not require a Certificate of Appropriateness. This work will be done by the property manager. Previous restaurants were required to include information about the Thomas Winery and still buildings in their menus. Staff has placed a condition of approval that requires the applicant to incorporate a short history of the winery building into the food and drinks menu. D. Compatibility of Use: The subject applications are a request to operate a restaurant and bar with outdoor dining and include entertainment such as live bands and dancing as • ancillary to the primary use (restaurant). The subject site has a General Plan land use designation of General Commercial, which the General Plan describes as: "The General A,B,&C- 3 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2012-00057, DRC2012-00058 and DRC2012-00696 — SSB PARTNERS INC. July 11, 2012 Page 4 • Commercial designation applies to properties along major activity corridors. This designation provides for a wide range of community-oriented and regional-orientated commercial businesses, including businesses that cater to tourists traveling on Historic Route 66 (Foothill Boulevard)." Staff believes that the applications are consistent with the General Plan land use designation in that the proposed use will offer entertainment opportunities for local residents and regional visitors, creating a more vibrant urban space. Because of the uniqueness of the Thomas Winery Plaza, in conjunction with adequate on- site parking to serve the proposed use, staff believes that the proposed use is in accordance with the General Plan and the purposes of the district in which it is located. Together with the conditions applicable thereto, staff believes that the proposed use will -- not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. The Coffee Klatch which is closest to the restaurant opens as early as 6:30 a.m. and closes by 9 p.m. so it will not be affected by the use. E. Security SSB Partners Inc. has established a thorough security plan to address potential situations during business operations, as well as ensure proper alcohol service. SSB Partners Inc. has provided a copy of their Security Procedures as Exhibit E, which clearly describes the • role of their security personnel in dealing with any issues that may arise, After 9:30 p.m. security will be maintained at 1 officer for each 75 patrons. The security staff will patrol both inside and outside the building. At the end of live events one-half of the security staff deployed will be stationed outside to assist and ensure patrons leave safely. Random outside patrol checks approximately every half hour will be conducted nightly. The goal of the security staff is to have all patrons out of the building at closing and out of the parking area 15 minutes after closing. In addition to the security provisions proposed by SSB Partners Inc., staff has included a condition in the resolution that will require an employee who serves alcohol to obtain a Certificate of Completion for training in the proper service of alcohol (L.E.A.D. or equivalent). Also, an additional condition of approval has been included requiring the applicant to cease all alcohol sales no less than thirty (30) minutes before closing. This is to ensure that all patrons will have adequate time between consuming a drink and leaving the establishment. F. Environmental Assessment: The Planning Department Staff has determined that the project is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines. The project qualifies under as a Class 1 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) because the project does not result in any major interior or exterior alterations, and there is no substantial evidence that the project may have a significant effect on the environment. • A,B,&C- 4 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DRC2012-00057, DRC2012-00058 and DRC2012-00696 — SSB PARTNERS INC.

GILLISON THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA Ai IlkRANCHO UCAMONGA June 19, 2012 Thomas Winery Plaza Attn: Michael Chesser 7945 Vineyard Avenue, Suite D-5 Rancho Cucamonga, CA 9173 SUBJECT: MINOR EXCEPTION DRC2012-00536-THOMAS WINERY PLAZA LLC-A request for a minor exception to reduce the required parking forthe Thomas Winery Plaza by 20 percent throughout the entire shopping center within the Specialty Commercial District of•the Foothill Boulevard District(Subarea 2), located at the northeast corner of Foothill Boulevard and Vineyard Avenue - APN: 0208-101-22 through 25. This action is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, existing facilities. • Dear Mr. Chesser: • The Planning Department has reviewed your application for a Minor Exception. Based upon plan review and/or site inspection, staff has made the following findings: • 1. The application applies to the parcels within the Specialty Commercial (SC) District, Subarea 2 of the Foothill Boulevard District, located at the northeast corner of Foothill Boulevard and Vineyard Avenue - APN: 0208-101-22 through 25. 2. This proposed reduction of the required on-site parking is required to permit the existing and • any additional food uses on-site. The proposed uses require 583 parking spaces to adhere to the Development Code requirements. A Parking Analysis prepared by Clyde E. Sweet and Associates on May 30, 2012, was submitted by the applicant and it indicates that at peak demand it is estimated that the shopping center will only utilize 468 of the 511 parking spaces that are currently located on the site. 3. The reduction is necessary to allow for the property owner to have flexibility with the types of tenants that can occupy the spaces within the center and compete with the shopping centers that surround-the site. 4. The Development Code allows for a Minor Exception procedure for the consideration of reducing the maximum number of required on-site parking spaces from 583 to 468 spaces, pursuant to Section 17.040.050. This application contemplates a 20 percent reduction which will provide a surplus of parking and allow for flexibility with proposed users. 5. As required by Section 17.04.050 of the Development Code, all property owners contiguous to the subject property were notified by mail regarding this applicant's request. A ten-calendar day comment period was provided; no comments were received. The above findings of fact support the necessary findings that are required by the City's Development Code and are listed below: • 1. That the strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulations would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary hardship inconsistent with the objectives of the General ' EXHIBIT G ;ucamongL eA&G29.24)7•Td (909)477-27(10• Fax (909)477-2849•www.CiryofRC.us O APPROVAL LETTER MINOR DEVELOPMENT REVIEW DRC2012-00536 — THOMAS WINERY PLAZA LLC June 19, 2012 Page 2 • • Plan and intent of the Development Code as the reduction of on-site parking provides flexibility to allow potential tenants of various uses to occupy the center without creating a deficiency in parking as the parking analysis states. 2. That there are exceptional circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved or to the intended use of the property that do not apply generally to other properties in the same district. There are only two small areas where parcels are zoned with the Specialty Commercial District designation. These sites already limit the type of uses that can be conducted, and the parking requirement restricts them even more. 3. That the strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulations would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by other property owners in the same district. The property owner would be limited in the types of tenants that could occupy the site. 4. That the granting of the Minor Exception will not constitute a grant of a special privilege inconsistent with the limitations on other properties classified in the same district, and will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. Therefore, your request has been approved subject to the following conditions: 1. Approval is for the reduction of required on-site parking by 20 percent or from 583 parking spaces to 468 parking spaces. The site contains 511 usable parking spaces at the • Thomas Winery Plaza located on the northeast corner of Foothill Boulevard and Vineyard Avenue -APN: 0208-101-22 through 25. 2. The applicant shall comply with all applicable codes and obtain the necessary Building Permits from the Building and Safety Department. 3. The applicant shall agree to defend at his sole expense any action brought against the City, its agents, officers, or employees, because of the issuance of such approval, or in the alternative, to relinquish such approval. The applicant shall reimburse the City, its agents, officers, or employees, for any court costs and attorney's flees Which.the City, its agents, officers; or employees may be required by a court to pay as a result of such action. The City may, at its sole discretion, participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action but such participation shall not relieve applicant of his obligations under this condition. 4. Prior to any use of the project site, all Conditions of Approval shall be completed to the satisfaction of the Planning Director. 5. Approval of this request shall not waive compliance with all sections of the Development Code, all other applicable City Ordinances, and applicable Community or Specific Plans in effect at the time of Building Permit issuance. This decision shall be final following a ten-day appeal period. Any appeals shall be made in writing to the Secretary of the Planning Commission along with a $2,050 filing fee. • A,B,&C- 25 • APPROVAL LETTER MINOR DEVELOPMENT REVIEW DRC2012-00536 —THOMAS WINERY PLAZA LLC June 19, 2012 • Page 3 If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Steve Fowler at (909) 477-2750, Monday through Thursday between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. Sincerely, PLANNING DEPARTMENT ffr y A om, Interim Planning Director JAB:SF/ge • • A,B,&C- 26 • RESOLUTION NO. 12-31 • A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA,APPROVING CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT DRC2012-00057, A REQUEST TO OPERATE A 7,597 SQUARE FOOT RESTAURANT AND BAR WITH ENTERTAINMENT AND OUTDOOR DINING IN THE SPECIALTY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT OF THE FOOTHILL .

The proposed use is in accord with the General Plan, the objectives of the Development Code, and the purposes of the district in which the site is located. The proposed use is in accordance with General Plan Policy LU-1.3 that encourages commercial centers to provide a broad range of retail and service needs for the community. With the addition of the restaurant and bar with outdoor dining to the shopping center, the shopping center can expand its services and attract a wider range of residents. b.

The Planning Department Staff has determined that the project is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines. The project qualifies under the Class 1 exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 - Existing Facilities because the project does not result in any major interior or exterior alterations.

That the normal operation of the premises would not interfere with the peace and quiet of the surrounding commercial center or adjacent apartment complex; and i. That the applicant has not made any false, misleading, or fraudulent statement of material fact in the required application. 4. The Planning Department staff has determined that the project is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's CEQA Guidelines.
