BB:NF/jfs Attachments: Exhibit "A" - Exhibit "B" - Letter from Applicant Architectural and Design Guidelines from the Etiwanda Specific Plan ITEM A JESUS IS LORD July 25, 1995 Mr. Dan Coleman, Principal Planner CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Planning Department 10500 Civic Center Drive Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91729 RE: LOVELAND CHURCH Dear Mr. Coleman: Loveland Church hereby requests a Pre-Application review of its proposed new facility at 13053 Baseline Road. Several criteria combine to justif~j the need for this pre-application process: The church, as applicant, is not a developer who is highly familiar and experienced with the process of obtaining a Conditional Use Permit in the city ofRancho Cucamonga. The Pre-Application process will help the church in fulfilling its desire to improve the property in a way that enhances the overall conunity while accomplishing its own design goals and ministry objectives. The project, which involves more than 11 acres of property adjacent to a major freeway and arterial street, is of suffident magnitude that the Pre-Application review will be beneficial to both the city and the church. It is the church' s desire to clearly identify the priority objectives of the Planning Commission early in the process so that the site and building design can address the input in an appropriate manner. Furthermore, there is curren~y no built example of this project type and size within the Etiwanda Specific Plan The church in building its proposed facility wishes to support the City of Rancho Cucamonga's goal of quality design which enhances the community and is of lasting value to both the community and the church itself. A heavy emphasis will be placed on communit~ oriented open landscaped space. While the site must accommodate substantial parkinB for Sunday mominB, the site design is clearly pedestrian friendly and people oriented. Landscape plant materials for sereenin8 and shading will reduce impact of parking areas. It is the church's intent to provide a campus that meets and exceeds the expectation of the city in its general guidelines and fits well within the overall character of the community of Etiwanda. 13053 BASELINE ROAD · RANCliO CUCAMONGA, CA 91739 · (909) 899-0777 · (909) 899-3423 (FAX) The church corporarely, the Pastor, staff, and the members as individuals, have proven themselves as citizens committed to impacting the community in a positive manner. The church's vision for continued growth and ministry within the community defines the purpose of the proposed facility. This purpose must be the central factor impacting the design of both building and site. The magnitude and scale of the proposed facility make it difficult if not impossible to follow the specific architectural guidelines (barn style) introduced in the Etiwanda Specific Plan. Any attempt to do so would result in a grotesque caricature which would undermine the true objectives of the plan. The proposed building in its placement, landscaping and massing seeks to blend with the community and meet or exceed the objectives of the Etiwanda Specific Plan in the following ways: The proposed fadlity and site design is informal, rather than formal. The proposed design is environmentally sensitive, seeking to maintain existing trees to the greatest possible extent and introducing new landscape features such a~ berms and knobs which reinforce the rural character of the community. The proposed building design will relate strongly to the lendscape features. Betins around the building will offer a low profile for such a large facility. Strategically placed trees and other plant material will reinforce the building's connection to the site. Curved roof forms, glass window expanses, and natural colon will reflect landscaping, distant mountains, and the sky above in a dramatic but subtle manner. C. Landscape features, including ~creen or retaining wafts will incorporate native fieldstone as suggested in the Etiwanda Specific Plan. Set well away from the street, the building, adjacent pln~,~.. courtyards, and play areas will accomplish the objective of relating to people, rather than automobiles. Loveland Church greatly appreciates the consideration of the Commission during this exciting phase of preparation for enhanced ministry in the City of Rancho Cucamongn and the greater metropolitan area. Any dialogue, discussion, and refinements which will enhance the project fi'om the church's perspective and the city's perspective will be most welcome. In this way we can work together to build a better community for ourselves end for future generations. Steven D.

(h) Preserving significant topographic features, including rock outcroppings, native plant materials and natural hydrology while also encouraging improved drainage from lots directly to a street, storm drain, or through public or privately maintained easement. (i) Limiting the impact of slopes on adjacent developed properties and limit construction on identified seismic or geologic hazard areas.
