SECTION 4: Based upon the facts and information contained in the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application, the City Council finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect upon the environment and adopts a Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring Program attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference, based upon the findings as follows: a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the City's local CEQA Guidelines, the City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of the project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, City staff determined that, with the imposition of mitigation measures, there would be no substantial evidence that the project would have a significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, the City staff provided public notice of the public comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration. b. The City Council has reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and the comments received from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) regarding the Mitigated Negative Declaration and based on the whole record before it, finds: (i) that the Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared in compliance with CEQA; and (ii) that based on the imposition of mitigation measures, there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment. During the Public Comment Period, staff received comments from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). To address CDFW comments, staff modified one of the existing mitigation measures in Initial Study Parts II and III, shortening the period of time prior to earth moving activity for performing a nesting bird survey. The modified mitigation measure was reviewed by the Planning Commission. The City Council finds that the Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the City Council. Based on these findings, the City Council hereby adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration. c. The City Council has also reviewed and considered the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project that has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of Public Resources Code Section 21081.6 and finds that such Program is designed to ensure compliance with the mitigation measures during project implementation. The City Council therefore adopts the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project; and d. The custodian of records for the Initial Study, Mitigated Negative Declaration, Mitigation Monitoring Program and all other materials which constitute the record of proceedings upon which the City Council's decision is based. is the Planning Director of the City of Rancho Ordinance No. 890— Page 3 of 11 Cucamonga. Those documents are available for public review in the Planning Department of the City of Rancho Cucamonga located at 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga, California 91730, telephone (909) 477-2750. SECTION 5: The Development Code is hereby amended to modify the facts, figures and tables in Development Code Section 17.36.020, to add the project site as Mixed Use area #14 to the current 13 Mixed Use areas (See highlighted changes on Attachments A, B and D and an updated Figure 17.36.020-1 (Attachment C) showing the new Mixed Use (MU) zoning designation of the project site). The Amendment also includes modifying Figures 17.38.060-1 (Foothill Boulevard Subareas) and 17.38.060-15 (Subarea 4 Map) changing the zoning of the project site from Community Commercial (CC) to Mixed Use (MU) (Attachments E and F).
