F. ADVERTISED PUBLIC HEARINGS
F1. CONSIDERATION OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT APPLICATION - FISCAL
YEAR 1992/93 AND RELATED AMENDMENTS TO THE CHAS - The adoption of the Preliminary
Statement of Community Development Objectives and the Projected Use of Funds for
the Community Development Block Grant Application for Fiscal Year 1992/93, based
on a grant of $551,000.00, and related Amendments to the Comprehensive Housing
Strategy to allow the Funding of Public Service Activities. (Continued from
April 1, 1992) Staff report presented by Cindy Norris, Associate Planner.
(0203-04 CDBG)
Mayor Stout opened the meeting for public hearing. Addressing the Council were:
Kristina Bulik-Hocum, Executive Director of the West End YWCA, stated she
would like the Council to reconsider staff's recommendation about not
funding their youth teen program. She felt it was an important program
that benefitted young teen girls in the area.
David Tate, Boy Scouts of America, Old Baldy Council, also requested
Council to reconsider staff's recommendation about not funding their
request to take 20 low income boys from the area on a week long retreat.
He felt this would help them form positive attitudes about themselves, and
perhaps steer them away from gangs and drug use.
There being no further comments, the public hearing was closed.
Councilmember Alexander stated it is always difficult to have to choose from
applications when all are good programs, and even though the programs presented
tonight were worthwhile, there were not enough funds available for everyone. He
asked if staff's recommendation were approved tonight, could changes be made in
the future.
Cindy Norris, Associate Planner, stated that if during the year it looked like
all of the funds were not being utilized, staff could come back to Council to
modify the plan.

Councilmember Buquet stated though he was sympathetic with the groups that spoke
tonight, he felt it was important to point out the difference between the groups
selected and those not selected. He stated those organizations selected relate
directly to the provision of shelter, both in emergency situations. He stated
the reason they are probably funding these two groups this year, when they have
always funded actual projects in the past, is because of the direct relationship
to the provision of shelter and housing.
Councilmember Williams concurred that there were never enough funds to go around,
but felt the provision of shelter was an absolute criteria of this program, and
commended staff for their hard work.
Mayor Stout stated the Community Development Block Grant program was an ongoing
project, not just a single year project. He stated they have invested those
funds in what are considered lifesaving and public safety types of areas. He
stated they have invested in Northtown, and are currently working in Southwest
Cucamonga to improve the quality of life for the residents that live there. He
stated the funds are not guaranteed, since they come from the Federal government,
so they have tried to invest them in projects that will have the greatest impact
over the longest period of time on the community in case they are not available
in the future. He understood that the service groups that approached them for
funding were worthwhile and would like to fund them if funds were available, but
they are not at this time.

Staff report presented by Vince Bertoni, Assistant Planner.
Mayor Stout asked if the Planning Commission only looked at residential
applications.
Vince Bertoni, Assistant Planner, stated the main focus was to look at lowering
density. He stated in the past there have been instances where a developer has
submitted an application for consideration of commercial use, which was reviewed
by the Planning Commission, and approved by the City Council.
Mayor Stout stated that no other options were considered then at this time than
residential.
Brad Buller, City Planner, stated they did not do an exhaustive analysis of
commercial or office/professional, they looked at the redesignation of
residential uses, and as in previous actions before the Council or Commission,
those applicants wishing to investigate other uses were encouraged to submit a
separate application outside of this process.
Mayor Stout opened the meeting for public hearing. Addressing the City Council
were:
Lois Lightner, resident since late 1950's and property owner in Subarea D,

the property owner of Subarea 1A and 1G, stated they concur with the
recommendation of the Planning Commission to retain the current density
for the property. He stated they are also in the process of submitting
plans for review for Medium Density housing for these sites, which will
also include affordable housing consistent with the City's affordable
housing strategy.
Greg Bennett, representing six property owners in Subarea I, stated they
would like to see a portion of that Subarea developed as Community
Commercial or Neighborhood Commercial. He felt it would be suitable due
to the proximity to other commercial developments in that area. He felt
commercial development would meet the Council's goals of reducing multi-
family density, and lower the impact on traffic and schools, while also
increasing revenue. He presented information and slides regarding the
location of the property and why they felt having residential right next
to the Mobil station would negatively impact that business, as opposed to
having a commercial development next to it. He felt that staff had only
prepared a recommendation based on residential designation without looking
at other possible options.
Robert Hoffman, representing Mr. Robert Kidder, an owner of property in
Subarea I, stated Mr. Kidder had purchased his property in the 1970's with
the intent of putting in some type of commercial development there one
day. He stated they were told they could bring in an application for a
development, but then they would have to show who would be leasing in the
development, and felt that businesses would not commit to that if they
were not even sure if the zone change would be approved. He stated he
would like some type of feel on whether or not the Council would approve
a zone change to commercial.
Jan Graeber Abbott, property owner in Subarea I, stated she did not want
to see that property zoned for commercial, and neither several homeowners
to the north who spoke at the Planning Commission meeting. She stated she
has lived in her home for 17 years, and felt that there was an opportunity
to improve that area. She stated she was in favor of the Planning
Commission's recommendation because there would be more opportunity to
provide something with lasting beauty that would benefit the community.
She did not feel they needed another commercial complex there.
There being no further comments, the public hearing was closed.
Councilmember Williams stated she concurred with the recommendations from the
Commission. She stated that for Subarea I, she saw that as an opportunity for
a good mix, that it did not necessarily have to be designed where a house would
be right next to the Mobil Station. She stated keeping it zoned residential did
not preclude anyone from approaching the City about a zone change if they had a
good plan for other uses. She stated she was not comfortable with the idea of
changing the zoning to commercial at this time when there was no specific project
in mind.

Mayor Stout stated he had a problem with Subarea J. He felt that property was
very important to the City, and felt the Haven Overlay should be extended to at
least the Day Creek Channel, if not beyond even, so that a major project
designation could be put in that location. He felt that by designating the
center portion as residential, it would give the wrong message to someone who
might want to develop that property. He stated he would like to see some type
of designation for that corner that could allow some special things to be
developed there in the downtown portion of Rancho Cucamonga. His suggestion
would be to withdraw Subarea J from consideration and ask staff to look at that
whole area with something different in mind other than the traditional types of
zoning. He stated the City would not have another opportunity to have a downtown
where there was this much vacant land available to do something special with.
Councilmember Buquet stated he concurred with the Mayor's suggestion for Subarea
J. He stated that in regards to Subarea I, he did not think it would take
$150,000.00 investment before the City would consider a zone change as was
suggested earlier. He stated he supported the Planning Commission's
recommendation as an interim land use designation, and if someone came in with
a high quality residential or commercial project, he would be willing to consider
it.
Mayor Stout stated that corner was a difficult piece, what with the size of the
property and the existing development around it. He stated they had a similar
situation with a parcel on Archibald, north of Base-Line, where the developers
wanted it rezoned from Office/Professional to Commercial. They realized that
Office/Professional was difficult for that parcel, and that too much commercial
would be a problem, but there was a need for something special because of the
senior housing adjacent to the parcel. He stated they were able to work out a
development agreement for that site that met everyone's needs. He felt if there
was some type of special designation on the corner of Arrow and Archibald that
the City would consider some type of mixed use or optional type of development,
it would let people know they would be flexible about what type of development
would be allowed there.
Councilmember Buquet stated he did not know if a special designation was needed
on that corner. He felt they could make the current change in the zoning since
no one was waiting to develop that property right away. He stated the owners
were not even ready to invest in a preliminary plan for a quality project. He
felt when a project was ready they could consider making a zone change then.
Councilmember Alexander stated he would be in favor of the Planning Commission's
recommendation for Subarea J.
Councilmember Williams concurred.
Jan Sutton, Deputy City Clerk, read the title of Ordinance No. 494.

H. CITY MANAGER'S STAFF REPORTS
Hi. CONSIDERATION OF TEMPORARY VARIANCE OF FIELD LIGHT CURFEW AT RED HILL AND
HERITAGE PARKS - Request by District 21 Little League to extend light usage on
both baseball fields for the month of July. Staff report presented by Joe
Schultz, Community Services Director. (1404-05 PARK) (1002-02 VARIANCE)
Mayor Stout opened the meeting for public comments. Addressing the Council was:
Dave Bonham, Area Administrator for Little League, presented changes they
have made in the schedule to move up starting times in consideration of
the neighbors. He stated this is the start of the Little League World
Series tournament, and asked that the Council approve the 11:00 p.m.
curfew for the light variance on the two 60 foot fields. He stated the
Little League tournament rotates through the district every four years.
He stated the second part of their request deals with the 90 foot field at
Red Hill Park, which is for a Big League Section tournament lasting five
days. He was asking to have a variance to allow the lights until 12:30
a.m. even though they did not expect any games to go beyond 11:30 p.m.
Mayor Stout asked what was the Park and Recreation Commission's recommendation
on the Big League tournament.
Dave Bonham, Little League, stated they recommended the lights be out at
11:00 p.m. He stated if they could not get a variance for 12:30 a.m.,
they would have to hold the tournament somewhere else.
Councilmember Alexander asked if correspondence had been sent to the surrounding
residents about the 12:30 a.m. curfew.
Dave Bonham, Little League, stated not by their group, but it was his
understanding that the Community Services Department had sent notices out
about the possibility. He stated if they were not able to hold it here
this year, it would rotate around again in a few years. He stated they
have never hosted a Big League Sectional tournament before, but wanted to
try to see if they could.
There being no further response, the public comment section was closed.
Mayor Stout stated he did not mind approving what has been done in the past, but
he did not want to allow a 12:30 a.m. curfew. He felt if someone else could hold
the tournament this year, they would have the facility ready at the Sports Park
by next year and could possibly host the Big League tournament then.
Councilmember Buquet disagreed. He felt it would be a remote possibility that
they would need to actually continue a game until 12:30 a.m., and felt it would
be beneficial to show off our community and the quality of our fields to people
from other areas. He stated because of the benefit the youth would receive by
playing in their community, he would be willing to allow the variance.

MOTION: Moved by Stout, seconded by Alexander to adopt the recommendation of
the Park and Recreation Commission to allow a light variance to ll:00 p.m.
Motion carried 3-1-1 (Buquet no, Wright absent).
H2. CONSIDERATION TO APPROVE MASCOT FOR THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA SOLID
WASTEMANAGEMENT PROGRAM- The Environmental Management Commission recommends the
City Council consider adopting a mascot design to represent the City's Solid
Waste Management Program. Staff report presented by Jo Lynne Russo-Peyrera,
Integrated Waste Coordinator. (1170-09 WASTE SOL)
Councilmember Buquet stated he liked the coyote figure, but felt they needed to
change the name. He stated he would like it to have a name that was generic or
non-specific and did not refer to any one community within the City. He felt
that might create some controversy between the three communities and wanted to
avoid that.
Councilmember Williams concurred that she also liked the coyote figure, but would
like to see it have a name that did not refer to one of the three communities.
ACTION: The Council concurred to use the coyote figure.
H3. CONSIDERATION TO EXECUTE A FINAL PAYMENT AGREEMENT (CO 92-020) AND A
DEPOSIT AGREEMENT (CO 92-021) AND TO APPROVE A RESOLUTION APPROVING CERTAIN
DOCUMENTS AND AUTHORIZING THE SALE OF BONDS FOR COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT 88-

Assistant to the City Manager. (0602-01 CONTRACT) (0405-02 BOND/SALE) (0403-01
COM FAC DI)
Mayor Stout opened the meeting for public comments. Addressing the Council were:
Don Stahlin, representing Lyon Community-Akins Associates, stated they are
the largest undeveloped land property owner in the District, and referred
to his letter that was handed out to the Council. He stated their
opposition was not in the initial agreements set up with Caryn Company in
the amount of approximately $3.1 million, but with the $300-400,000.00
additional payment that is going to be made. He stated the difference is
being made up in the undeveloped land tax rate assessment, and felt if
that facility was needed, it should have been put in and sized for and
everyone should have shared in the cost equally, including the existing
property owners. He thanked Jerry Fulwood and Duane Baker for keeping the
property owners informed of the issues and always being available.
Mike White, Standard Pacific, 1565 MacArthur Blvd., Costa Mesa, stated
they were in support of this item as one of the major landowners in the
north Etiwanda area. He felt the land owners would receive benefit from
these facilities, and urged the Council to approve this action so the
remainder of the north Etiwanda area can proceed with development.

Kevin Pohlson, Caryn Company, clarified the reimbursement requested from
the City is for upgrades the Caryn Company has spent on flood control
facilities that are part of the original purchase and finance agreement.
He stated the reimbursements and upgrades are not tied to the flood wall
itself. He stated they are doing a separate agreement to utilize the
$335,000.00 to build the floodwall. He felt there have been substantial
cost benefits to all the properties out there from the work they have
already done. He also thanked staff for their support.
David DiIorio, Caryn Company, also thanked staff for their help on this
project.
There being no further input, the public comment section was closed.
Councilmember Buquet stated staff did a good job in pulling this all together.
He stated he has seen many times before where people have come in wanting to
develop property where there is no infrastructure in place, and the first one
does not want to pay for it, and the following people do not want to pay their
proportionate share. He stated while he can respect the comments made that it
should have been done a long time ago, at some point in time you have to bite the
bullet and pay for it, and that was where they were at now. He felt the only
answer would be to not allow people to build in areas where there was no
infrastructure unless they were willing to pay for it.
Mayor Stout stated another consideration was to protect the residents that live
in that area.
