previously taken. He asked that the Council do what is right for its residents. He also asked that the

immediately and sent to the appropriate parties because he was there when it came in and saw

FIVE (5) FLEET VEHICLES FROM LOCAL DEALERSHIPS TO
BE SELECTED THROUGH COMPARITIVE OFF-THE -LOT
PRICING NOT TO EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF $98,000.00
FUNDED FROM FUND 72-4225-7045 AND $33,500.00 FROM
ACCOUNT 142-4451-7045
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the replacement purchase of four (4) fleet
vehicles from local dealerships selected by comparative, off-the-lot pricing, in the amount of
$98,000.00 funded from account 72-4225-7045 and one (1) Chevy Tahoe in the amount of
$33,500.00 funded from account 142-4451-7045.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
City Council approved the purchase of replacement vehicles as identified in the fiscal year
1999/2000 budget document under account 72-4225-7045 and account 142-4451-7045.
Maintenance provided specifications to Purchasing for all replacement/new vehicles. Purchasing
prepared a Request for Proposal. A vendor was selected and was unable to process the orders for
the selected vehicles. An additional RFP was prepared and sent out. One response was received.
Given the lack of response and limited timeframe, it is recommended that a comparative
off-the-lot purchase be conducted. After analysis of the competitive shopping, the most
responsive and responsible vendors will be selected to acquire the vehicles.

PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR NECESSITY 00-03- CHEVRON - Consideration of a
request to make a determination of Public Convenience or Necessity (PCN) for the
transfer of an existing Alcohol Beverage Control License (Off-Sale General) for a
remodeled Chevron service station with convenience store, located at the southwest
corner of Carnelian Avenue and Base Line Road - APN:
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the determination of the "Public Convenience or Necessity" through the adoption of the
attached Resolution and forward a copy to the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control.
ANALYSIS
Backaround: The applicant, Chevron, is operating a remodeled service station with a
convenience store at the southwest corner of Carnelian Avenue and Base Line Road.
Conditional Use Permit 98-25 was approved for the remodeling of the station by the
Planning Commission on February 24, 1999. The remodeling is complete and the new
service station is now in operation. The previous Chevron service station had a license for
alcohol sales but that license must now be transferred to the new operation according to the
Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control.
Requirements from Department of Alcohol Beveraqe Control: The Department of Alcohol
Beverage Control regulates the distribution of liquor licenses by setting limits on the different
types of licenses in each Census Tract. The limits are calculated from the ratio of liquor
licenses to the population of the Census Tract. According to the Alcohol Beverage Control
staff, there are three (3) licenses allowed within Census Tract 8.12 and four (4) are existing.
When a Census Tract's limit has been reached, additional liquor licenses can be issued only
if the City determines that the license would serve the public's convenience or necessity as
required by Section 23958 of the Business and Professional Code. The legislation
purposefully left the term "public convenience and necessity"' undefined so that the local
legislative body, City Council, has the greatest latitude, based on local conditions and
determinations.

Facts to Support a Public Convenience or NecessitV Determination: The following are facts
that support the requested "Public Convenience or Necessity:"
On February 24, 1999 Conditional Use Permit 98-25 was issued for remodeling of a
service station with convenience store located at the subject site, at the southwest
comer of Base Line Road and Carnelian Avenue.
2. The site is along Base Line Road, a Major Boulevard, and Carnelian Avenue.
The site is close to sensitive users such as day care elementary and high schools
but the previous service station had off-sale licensing. No comments have been
received from the Police Department.
The site was formerly occupied by a convenience market that has subsequently
been remodeled.
The site is relatively close to single family homes and apartments, however, staff
does not foresee a conflict because of its proximity to major streets and the nature of
the business.
Rancho Cucamonga residents would be afforded more shopping opportunities for
personal and convenience items.
CONCLUSION
Based on the above analysis, staff finds the issuance of an Off-Sale General liquor license would
not have a negative impact to the surrounding uses. Staff recommends approval of the attached
Resolution.

Dear Councilmembers:
Please accept this letter as a formal request for the City Council's consideration
to issue a letter of Public Convenience or Necessity for the Chevron Station
located at 8687 Baseline Street.
As you are aware, the Deparb~'~ent of Alcoholic Beverage Con~ol regulates the
distribution of alcohol licenses in each Census Tract. When a census tract limit is
reached or a census tract is identified as "high crime" additional licenses can be
issued provided the C~y Council authorizes a finding of Public Convenience or
Necessity.
According to the Deparb,ent of Alcoholic Beverage Control, there are three (3)
licenses allowed within Census Tract 8.12 and four (4) licenses existing.
Moreover, the census tract ratios for this location are misleading. Because the
number of licenses allowed is determined by the number of residents within a
census tract, census tracts such as this one, which have areas which are
undeveloped naturally have a lower license count than those which are highly
populated. In addition, the census counts are ten years old and do not account
for any additional residents since the 1990 census.
According to the Deparbnent of Alcoholic Beverage Control, the city does not
report crime stats.
The purpose of this letter is to illustrate that public convenience or necessity will
be served by the issuance of an off sale beer and wine permit for the Baseline
Chevron by illustrating the character, aesthetics and manner in which Chevron
conducts its business will fill a niche not currently occupied by other license
holders.

Telephone: (909) 699-6868 · FAX: (909) 699-6869 · After February 2000, the area code will be 951.
This site is unique in that there is currently a liquor license issued to this address.
Because this site is being tom down and remodeled, the Depafb~ent of Alcoholic
Beverage Control requires a new finding of public convenience or necessity.
Since the current license is being transferred to the new building, there will be
no increase in licenses to this census tract,
At Chevron, we understand how well we operate our stations and meet our
customers gasOline and shopping needs will be a deciding factor in their decision
to return. Zmproving our product offering of staple grocery items, diapers, dairy
products, bakery goods, flesh coffee, automotive products and a full line of
beverages including beer and wine will serve public convenience by allowing our
customers to satisfy most or all of their quick shopping needs while filling their
cars with gasoline.
The site design and layout elements of the Baseline Chevron reflect our
company's ongoing commitment to safety. Placing our building on roar property
lines opens the entire site to visibility from the street. Our floor to ceiling glass
storefront is appealing to customers because it improves their ability to see in
and out of the food mart day or night. Law enforcement personnel have
informed us that keeping the glass free of unsightly advertising as we do
improves their ability to survey the food marts interior during their periodic
patrols.
Customers approciate a business where parking is convenient and near building
entrances. Ample parking near our food mart entrance contributes to our
customers decision to patronize our business, particularly at night. Our parking
areas are clearly marked and maintained with sufficient lighting to ensure
pedestrian and vehicular visibility and safety. We have increased parking backup
distances to ensure our customers have ample room to maneuver in and out of
parking spaces.
Our lighting design improves our nighttime appearance and makes our
customers feel welcome and secure by covering all areas where they walk. Our
customers tell us they prefer our FAETPAY pumps flush mounted at grade
because it eliminates the potential hazard of tripping as they pump gasoline or
walk in between the pumps. Our FASTPAY pumps also provide our customers
the safety of not having to leave their children unattended in the car when
paying for gasoline.
We offer our customers public restrooms inside the food mart. For mothers with
children, traveling sales people or other workers who use their automobiles in
the function of their jobs, clean and safe restrooms aro a priority. All of these
elements 'serve public convenience and necessity.
Our employee training programs and operational procedures are fundamental to
operating our stations in a safe and responsible manner. Our employees must
participate in successfully complete our comprehensive training program, which
include segments on customer service, facility maintenance, responsible alcohol
and tobacco retailing, personnel management and workplace safety. We make
random night visits to our Chevron stations, conduct in-house decoy programs
and mystery shopper programs. These operation programs and our monthly
personnel and safety meeting help to ensure every employee on every shift
understands their personnel and safety meetings help to ensure every employee
on every shift understands their social and legal responsibility to our customers
and the communities in which we do business.
Our operation guidelines and procedures have been developed in response to
community concerns, law enforcement recommendation and our operation
experience. Our self-imposed limitations identify the differences between our
business and others and include:
· Pay telephones with call out feature only
· Graffiti removal within 48 hours of its occurrence
· No coin operated video games
· No adult magazines or videos
· No sale of alcohol from a pass thru window
· Signs posted in English and predominant second language in the area
with regard to prohibitions to open containers and loitering
· No beer or wine displayed within 5 feet of the cash register or the
front door or displayed within an ice tub
· No benches, newspaper racks, bicycle racks or any other objects that
tend to encourage loitering shall be maintained on the premises
· The sale of products other than alcoholic beverages, measured by
gross receipts on an annual basis shall exceed the annual sales of
alcoholic beverage products, measured by gross receipts.
· All improvements on the property will be continuously maintained,
including repairs to structures and replacement of dead or diseased
plant material.
· Will place at least one 13-gallon trash receptade inside our building
and two 32-gallon trash receptades outside our building for use by our
customers.
· No display of any alcohol-related advertising at the fuel islands.
· All employees on duty between the hours of 10 pm and 2 am who sell
beer and wine will be at least 21 years of age.
In conclusion public convenience or necessity will be served at the Baselinel
Chevron by providing the citizens of Rancho Cucamonga an attractive, safe,
clean, well lit, state of the art facility with a responsible retailer who meets and
fulfills both the motoring fuel requirements and grocery needs of its customers,
Thank you for the opportunity to provide this information. Please call me at your
earliest convenience at (909) 699-6868 when the council has scheduled a

Back.qround: The applicant, Larry Beck, currently operates Ultramart, a gas station/mini-
market at the northwest corner of Archibald Avenue and San Bernardino Road. On
January 4, 1999, the City Planner issued an approval letter for the conversion of the photo
house into a mini-market. On May 9, 2000, the City Planner approved Conditional Use

population of the Census Tract. According to the Alcohol Beverage Control staff, the limit
for ABC licenses within the Census Tract where the gas station/mini-market is located is
sixteen. The ABC staff has informed the Planning Division that currently there are twelve
active licenses. However, due to a moratorium on all new licenses within San Bernardino

facts that support the requested "Public Convenience or Necessity:"
1. A mini-market, including the sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption, is a
common and accepted business practice.
The site, located at the northwest corner of Archibald Avenue and San Bernardino
Road, is along a major arterial and is suited for this type of gas station/mini-market
facility.
On May 9, 2000, Conditional Use Permit 00-05 was approved for a Type 20 ABC
license, allowing the sale of beer and wine for off-site consumption.
Rancho Cucamonga residents would be afforded more shopping opportunities for
personal and convenience items and services.

Resolution of Approval
February 22, 2000
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
My only intent for this Conditional Use Permit, is to sell
beer and wine at UltraMart convenience store which is located on
the same premises as Ultramar, the gasoline entity.
I am applying for this C.U.P. in conjuction with the "Public
Convenience and Necessity" standards as set forth by the A.B.C.
Board, prior to licensing, for all cities in San Bernardino and
Riverside Counties.
Our business is in Census Tract 0020.05 in which 16 licenses
are allowed with 12 licenses existing. ( See attached A.B.C.
guidelines and related information concerning this application)
My request for the privilege of selling beer and wine at this
location is the result of customer demand and constant inquiries
on a daily basis asking, "Where is your beer?"
Rather than have our customers make an additional stop,
(usually on the way home, between the hours of 3:30 P.M. and 6:30
P.M.) I would like to provide this convenience by catering to
our customer demand.
We at UltraMart take great pride in running a clean, well
organized and viable business. Our business hours are from 5 A.M.
to 11 P.M., Monday thru Friday and 6 A.M. to 11 P.M. Saturday and
Sunday. We would not be allowed to sell beer or wine before 6 A.M.,
in accordance with A.B.C. Rules.
At the present time an employee of at least 21 years of age
or will be on duty during all business hours. It is normal that
two employees are on duty at any given time.
At the present time we have eight (8) cooler doors from which
we sell sodas, bottled water, and limited dairy products.
If. we are approved for the sale of beer and wine, we would
allocate two (2) of our cooler doors to alcoholic beverages.
I think our increase demand ~or "beer" requests could be a result
of the 7-11 in the Millers Out post center, going out of business.

market/liquor store in a leased space of 1,925 square feet of an existing shopping

Plan (Subarea 3), located at 9849 Foothill Boulevard, Suite "C" - APN:
208-301-16. Related File: CUP 00-06.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the determination of the "Public Convenience or Necessity" through the adoption of the
attached Resolution and forward a copy to the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control.
ANALYSIS
Backqround: The applicants, Darshan Kaur and Darshan Singh, will be operating a liquor
store/mini-market located in the Plaza de las Brisas shopping center located at the
southwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and Archibald Avenue. Conditional Use Permit 00-
06 was approved for the project by the City Planner on May 9, 2000.
Requirements from Department of Alcohol Beveraqe Control: The Department of Alcohol
Beverage Control regulates the distribution of liquor licenses by setting limits on the
different types of licenses in each Census Tract. The limits are calculated from the ratio of
liquor licenses to the population of the Census Tract. According to the Alcohol Beverage
Control staff, there is a total of 26 active Off-sale (type 20 and 21) licenses within the
Census Tract 21.00 where the proposed market is to be located, thus exceeding the
Alcoholic Beverage Control's given limit of 16. When a Census Tract's limit has been
reached, additional liquor licenses can be issued only if the City determines that the
license would serve the public's convenience or necessity as required by Section 23958 of
the Alcohol Beverage Control Act. The legislation purposefully left the term "public

convenience and necessity" undefined so that the local legislative body, the City Council,
has the greatest latitude based on local conditions and determinations.
Facts to Support a Public Convenience or Necessity Determination: The following are
facts that support the requested "Public Convenience or Necessity:"
1. On May 9, 2000, Conditional Use Permit 00-06 was issued for a liquor store/mini-
market to be located on the south side of Foothill Boulevard between Ramona and
Archibald Avenues.
The site fronts onto Foothill Boulevard, which is a major commercial thoroughfare
within the City.
The site is not within 1000 feet of sensitive uses, such as day care facilities or
schools.
Single-family homes are developed to the south of the identified shopping center,
separated by a 20-foot alley. A mobile home park exists east of the site, separated
by Ramona Avenue. Conditions of Approval for the Conditional Use Permit restrict
the market's hours of operation and delivery hours, which help mitigate potential
conflicts between the mentioned land uses.
Rancho Cucemonga residents would be afforded more shopping opportunities for
personal and convenience items.
CONCLUSION
Based on the above analysis, staff finds the issuance of an Off-Sale General liquor I'icense
would not have a negative impact to the surrounding uses. Staff recommends approval of the
attached Resolution.

CONSIDERATION OF LIGHT VARIANCE REQUEST FOR ALL-STAR
TOURNAMENTS HOSTED BY ALTA LOMA LII'I'LE LEAGUE, CITRUS
LITTLE LEAGUE, AND DEER CANYON LITTLE LEAGUE ON JULY 1 -
AUGUST 10, 2000 AT HERITAGE PARK.
RECOMMENDATION
The Park and Recreation Commission recommends that the City Council approve a
temporary variance of the Outdoor Athletic Lighting Policy to allow for light use until
11:00 p.m. on two of the baseball fields at Heritage Park from July I - August 10, 2000
(excluding Sundays). The light variance is being requested for a regional All-Star
Tournament sponsored by the local little league organizations. Games will begin at
6:00 p.m.
BACKGROUND
The current Outdoor Athletic Lighting policy prohibits any light use beyond 10:00 p.m.
except for when a light variance has been approved. Similar tournaments have been
hosted over the past several years and light variances have been permitted. No
complaints have been received from residents near Heritage Park in the past
concerning use of lights past 10:00 p.m. during similar tournaments. Games generally
last one and one-half to two hours (1 ~ - 2) each. Most games will conclude by 10:00
p.m.
ANALYSIS
The requested variance would apply to the two smaller little league ball diamonds
located on the west side of Heritage Park. The Park and Recreation Commission
requests that the City Council continues with the current policy by providing a light
variance only for extended, overtime or extra innings, which is necessary for tournament
play.
MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
CONSIDERATION OF LIGHT VARIANCE REQUEST
June 7, 2000
Page 2
As in the past, the leagues are to provide the City with a draft of the notice to the
neighbors a minimum of two weeks prior to the games. This notice has been required
by the City Council so that surrounding neighbore are aware that a light variance has
been permitted by the City to accommodate little league all-star play and any questions
regarding use should be addressed to the City or League representatives. The leagues
will also include night and weekend contact phone numbers in the event any residents
need to talk to someone immediately concerning the little league's usage of the fields or
lights during those dates. Once the draft notice is approved, the leagues must distribute
the notice to the neighbors who adjoin the park. A final tournament bracket will also be
submitted to the City before June 27, 2000. Attached, you will find a copy of the current
Light Variance Policy.

POLICY NO.: 50040
PAGE 1 OF 3
EI~'I~ECTIVE: 11/1/92
REVISED:
APPROVED: 10/18/92 CC
SUBJECT: LIGHT VARIANCE POLICY
PURPOSE:
To specify guidelines for the request and use of sports field lights after
normal operating hours.
POLICY:
The following procedures will be followed by all community based youth
sports groups who desire to request and use lighted sports fields after
normal operating hours.
GENERAL POLICIES AND GUIDELINES:
There are some occasions throughout the year that may require a youth sporting event to
exceed the normal 10:00 p.m. sports fields' light curfew. However, it is important to
develop some procedures that insure that neighboring residents are not negatively
impacted by an approved light variance. Outlined below is a set of guidelines that specifies
a process for requesting such a variance and how it should be implemented.
Non-profit community based youth sports groups may request a variance to extend
light use for City park sports fields beyond normal operating hours. Current
operating hours conclude at 10:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday and no use of
lights is permitted on Sundays.
The request must be for a special occasion of some type such as Regional Little
League All Star Playoffs, etc. Normal league play or practices are not eligible for
consideration under this request.
A request must be submitted in writing to the Community Services Director two
months prior to their requested use. This allows the department to review their
request and submit it for review and approval to the Park and Recreation
Commission and the City Council.
The request must then be presented to the Park and Recreation Commission for
their review and approval.
The Park and Recreation Commission must then forward their recommendation to
the City Council for their final review and approval.
LIGHT VARIANCE POLICY
MAY 18, 2000
PAGE 2
If such a request receives final approval from City Council then that organization
must provide home phone numbers and a fact sheet giving details of the
tournament. Furthermore, it must be distributed by the leagues or organization to
homeowners within two blocks of the parks two weeks before the tournament or
event. The flier must be delivered in person to each resident or weighted in some
fashion to their doorstep. The flier will include home phone numbers of a distdct or
regional representative and any league presidents. In addition, any pay or
designated phones at the fields will also be provided so immediate contact can be
obtained with the tournament directors. This will be accomplished at league
expense.
"NO PARKING" signs will be posted on the resident side of streets adjacent to parks
in use on Saturdays and Sundays by the requesting organization with signs
provided by the City.
A separate flier will be distributed to league or tournament participants stating that
no noisemakers are allowed and that participants/guests are requested to leave the
park area quietly.
Overflow parking will be monitored by the requesting organization and signage
provided directing participants to park at additional parking facilities nearby. Pdor
approval must be obtained to use these parking facilities.
10.
Organized scheduled athletic events sound amplification equipment will be allowed
in City parks, but limited to public address systems, stereo equipment, stationary
and portable components and bull horns, subject to the following conditions:
a. Request to use the Public Address (P.A.) System must be included on the field
use application or submitted separately prior to any usage.
Amplified sound systems will be checked prior to the tournament or event and
a "lock off' device used to prevent the audio from being turned up. Staff will
drop in unannounced to monitor at least three times a week during the
tournament. A fee of $90 will be paid in advance to cover monitoring costs. If
additional monitoring is needed, it will be billed at $10.00 an hour. Announcing
will be limited to:
· General welcome.
· Introduction of teams.
· Announcement of player to the plate.
· Recap of runs and score between innings.
Furthermore, power limits are to be set so as not to exceed 74DBA at 300 feet
in circumference from the sourca or property line, which ever is closer. No
sound from a Community Services appreved event can exceed a noise level
(slow, 74dBA, "A" weighted scale) measured at the nearest property line, for a
LIGHT VARIANCE POLICY
MAY 18, 2000
PAGE 3
cumulative pedod of not morn than five (5) minutes in any one hour, whether or
not the sounds am live, recorded, amplified or necessary to the event (i.e.
generatore).
All users will be responsible for guaranteeing the sound level not exceed
74DBA by installing permanently an automatic control system to be tested and
approved by the City prior to the start of the tournament.
e. The direction of sound from the P.A. System speakers will be toward spectators
and/or bleacher areas and away from residential areas.
f. The P.A. System use will be permitted only between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and
9:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday, unless otherwise approved by City Council.
g. Only persons 18 years and older will be allowed to operate the Public Address
System.
All Public Address System use for athletic events must pertain to the game being
played. Special announcements should be kept to a minimum. In no case will
play-by-play announcing be permitted.
Failure to comply with the above requirements by user groups will result in one
of the following:
· First Offense: Verbal warning followed by written communication.
· Second Offense: Payment of staff time to monitor sound system at rate set
in Music and Amplification Policy at the next set of games.
· Third Offense: Loss of system use.
11.
Lights are to be tumed off as soon as possible after the completion of the last game,
but not to exceed 11:00 p.m.

APPEAL OF DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 99-72 - RYLAND HOMES - The appeal of the
Planning Commission's approval of the design review of building elevations and detailed
site plan for 78 homes within Tentative Tracts 15911 and 15912 in the Low-Medium
Residential District (4-8 dwelling units per acre) of the Etiwanda Specific Plan, located on
the southwest and northeast corners of East Avenue .and the Southem Pacific Railroad

APPEAL OF VARIANCE 99-11 - RYLAND HOMES - The appeal of the Planning
Commission's approval of a request to construct perimeter tract walls up to approximately
21 feet high where a maximum height of 6 feet is permitted for freeway noise mitigation
purposes for Tracts 15911 and 15912 in the Low-Medium Residential District (4-8 dwelling
units per acre) of the Etiwanda Specific Plan, located on the southwest and northeast
comers of East Avenue and the Southern Pacific right--of-way - APN: 227-131-05 and
227-141-11 and 12. Related Files: Development Review 99-72, Tentative Tract 15911 and
15912.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council deny the appeal filed in opposition to the project and uphold the
decision of the Planning Commission appmving the development review and vadance applications.
BACKGROUND:
The Planning Commission appreved Tentative Trects 15911 and 15912 on October 14, 1998. The trects are
located on both sides of East Avenue, north and south of the abandoned Southern Pacific
right-of-way. A noise study was conducted dud ng review of the trects to ascertain noise impacts from the I-15
Freeway on the home sites and identify mitigation methods. The study recommended construction of
masonry walls as high as 17 feet above pad level to mitigate freeway noise (which would result in a 21 -foot
high wall on the high side). The highest walls would be located adjacent to the freeway 1,000 feet from the
East Avenue frontage. The high wall is necessary because the I-15 Freeway is approximately 20 feet higher
CITYCOUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DR 99-72 AND VAR 99-11 - RYLAND HOMES

than the elevation of the project site (see Exhibit "B"). The tracts are designed in conformance with the wall
height requirements. On Apdl 12, 2000, the Planning Commission approved Development Review 99-72 for
the design review of homes within the two tracts. The Commission also approved Vadance 99-11 to allow the
developer to construct sound walls as high as 21 feet.
The subject appeal was filed in a timely fashion by James Banks on April 24, 2000.
ANALYSIS:
Mr. Banks poses the following points in his appeal:
"A buffer zone could be [provided along the I-15 frontage] filled with tall berms, shrubs and trees which
would act as a sound absorbent while adding to the beauty of the project and the community and
providing an environmental benefit with vegetation."
Response: Provision of tall, landscaped berms would certainly have aesthetic value, but there is no evidence
that it would provide adequate noise attenuation for future homeowners. While plants may provide a
perception of less noise, acoustic studies have proven that they do not reduce actual noise levels. The
applicant's noise consultant has studied the situation and determined that with a 6-foot high wall at the
eastern boundary of the project, homes would have to be set back 1,000 feet from the 1-15 Freeway to
achieve acceptable noise levels. This would effectively preclude development of the site in conforrnance with
permitted land uses. Furthermore, according to the noise consultant, trees and vegetation provide little, if
any, sound attenuation.
The Etiwanda Specific Plan does contain provisions for increasing density in exchange for open space under
the Optional Standards. The developer chose a lower density, more consistent with the neighborhood, using
the Basic Development Standards; hence, the lots are larger, but there is no common open space.
According to CALTRANS, it would be possible for the developer to construct a sound wall within the 1-15
Freeway right-of-way. A 6-foot wall on top of the freeway slope would offer superior sound attenuation (see
Exhi bit "B"); however, the developer does not wish to construct a wall within the freeway right-of-way because
it would have to be much longer than the actual project frontage on the freeway in order to effectively mitigate
noise.
2. "People who live near the wall are not going to see the sunshine until 10:00 am."
Response: The freeway itself will block early morning light because it is higher than the top of the proposed
sound wall.
"It will be an engineedng feat to design and build a structure 17 feet high and 8 inches thick which will
withstand the force of [our local high] winds...the wall will be so rigid that the next big dpple from the
San Andreas Fault will lay it on the ground."
Response: The sound wall must be speciallyengineered in order to meet Uniform Building Code standards.
4. "The wall will be aesthetically contrary to everything the Etiwanda Specific Plan tded to accomplish in
terms of rural appearance...and the wall will become a precedent."
Response: The highest portion of the wall is located along the I-15 Freeway frontage, approximately 1,000
feet from East Avenue. Due to the steep freeway slope, the wall will be difficult to see from the freeway. The
Planning Commission conditioned the developer to provide a two-toned color scheme for the high walls to

help reduce the apparent height of the walls. This technique has been successfully used on similar sound
walls along the south side of Highland Avenue at Milliken Avenue. The walls are designed with split faced
and fluted split faced block, and vine pockets to allow vines to grew up the outside of the walls. The walls am
necessary to permit reasonable development of the project site in conformance with the land use permitted by
the Etiwanda Specific Plan and are designed to be as aesthetically pleasing as possible. The vast majodty of
residential land use districts within Etiwanda that have frontage on the freeway are designated Low-Medium
Residential (4 to 8 dwelling units per acre) and Medium Residential (8 to 14 dwelling units per acre).
Development within these districts will very likely require a form of sound attenuation similar to that proposed
for the subject development.
ALTERNATIVES:
Require the developer to install the wall at the top of the slope within the 1-15 Freeway right-of-way;
however, it would be contrary to the appellant's desire for light and openness. Uphold the appeal.
Require the developer to install trees along the homeowner's side of wall to soften appearance.
(Current design has shrubs and vines only). Deny the appeal and add a condition.
CORRESPONDENCE:
This item was advertised as a public hearing in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was
posted, and notices were mailed to all property owners within a 300-foot radius of the project site.

RE: Variance 99-11, Ryland Homes
Dear City Council:
I live at 13181 Victoria Street, Etiwanda. I am appealing the decision of the
Planning Commission made Wednesday, April 12, 2000. I was
unexpectedly unable to attend the Planning Commission meeting, so I must
resort to this method of making my objections known. My check for $126 is
enclosed.
The Citizens Committee which worked on the Etiwanda Specific Plan
devoted a significant amount of time to the question of planning around the
1-15 freeway. The Committee was very concerned about the construction of
houses near the fleeway. One of the Committee's proposals was to put a
frontage road along the freeway route. When that proposal seemed unlikely
to pass, the Committee turned its attention to other solutions.
The Committee allowed higher densities along the freeway and provided
exceptional set-back and wider open space trade off requirements to address
the conflict between residences and the freeway. The Committee's theory
was to allow a developer to leave more space between the houses and the
freeway and pick up the house count with a little more density away from
the freeway.
The Committee attempted to create an ordinance which would allow the
developer the same number of houses as other nearby areas of Etiwanda, but
bunch the houses away from the f~eeway. This method would have left a
buffer zone between the houses and the freeway. The buffer zone cotrid be

filled with tall berms, shrubs and trees which would act as a sound absorbent
while adding to the beauty of the project and the community and providing
an environmental benefit with vegetation.
Lush vegetation can effectively absorb sound. Ryland's tree removal has, in
fact, doubled the noise of the fxeeway where I reside several hundred feet
away. The proposed wall will reflect the sound, not absorb it.
People who live near the wall are not going to see the sunshine until 10:00
A.M.
Every tea years or so the wind blows over 100 mph in Etiwanda. It will be
an engineering feat to design and build a structure 17 feet high and 8 inches
thick which will withstand the force of this wind. If that feat can be
accomplished, the wall will be so rigid that the next big ripple tirom the San
Andreas Fault will lay it on the. ground.
The wall will be aesthetically contrary to everything the Etiwanda Specific
Plan tried to accomplish in terms of a rural appearance. fithis wall becomes
a precedent which is followed elsewhere, the main purposes of the Etiwanda
Specific Plan will be fi-ustrated if not totally thwarted. Please weigh the
arguments for and against the wall, consider the alternatives and make a
judgment which will benefit the community in the long run. Thank you for
considering my appeal.

Subject: Comments on Noise Issues for Tract 15911.
Dear Mr. Garcia,
We have reviewed the comments by Mr. James Banks, Jr. in the letter addressed April 21, 2000
to the City Council of Rancho Cucamonga. In the letter, Mr. Banks, Jr. addresses several issues.
We have agreed to respond only to the issue pertaining to noise mitigation required for Tract
15911. Fir. Banks, Jr. raises the issue of berming and vegetation (trees and shrubs) as a noise
barrier verses a concrete block noise barrier. This particular issue will be discussed in th~
following paragraphs.
The results of our noise analysis for Tract 15911 (refer to Mestre Greve Associates Report ~00-
08; "Noise Analysis For Tentative Tracts 15911 & 15912; January 26, 2000) did conclude that
homes adjacent to the I-15 Freeway will require a noise barrier up to 17 feet in height in order to
meet the City' s noise standard. Effective noise barriers consist of a concrete or plexi glass wall,
a benn, or a combination of the two.
The Highway Noise Model published by the Federal Highway Administration CFHWA
Highway Traffic Noise Prediction Model", FHWA-RD-77-108, December 1978), states "If the
woods are very dense, i.e., there is no clear line of sight between the observer and the source,
and if the height of the trees extends at. least 5 metres above the line of sight, then a 5 dBA
attenuation is allowed if the woods have a depth of 30 metres. An additional 5 dBA may he'
obtained if the depth of the woods extends for another 30 metres. 10 dBA is the maximum
attenuation dense woods can provide ". Several other publications on noise control support this
conclusion (refer to Beranek, LL, Editor, "Noise And Vibration Control", 1988; Hendriks, R,
"Technical Noise Supplement") Noise may be attenuatedby trees and shrubs but the result is
not nearly as effective or feasible as a concrete block wall.

We appreciate your aunts interest in our Ryland Community and hope we can accommodate her
home needs. Thank you for voidrig your ooncems over the environment specific to our project. Ryland
with an already appmved TentaWe Map and Conditions of Approval purchased this pmjec~ This
included the removal of trees. However, the conditions also had a mitigation measure that requires the
replanting of trees of vadous species. We will implement this mitigation measure.
Ryland as a whole does many positive deeds to enrich our environment. Among them is dedication of
land to vadous Parks and Recreation entities, building of perks within our community, and payment of
fees used specffically to build parks and / or improve them.
Thank you for your suppart and interest in Ryland's success.

Subject; Comments on Noise Issues for Tract 15911.
Dear Mr. Gatcia,
The purpose of this letter is to funhcr address ~e issue of vegetation (trees and shrubs) as a
means of attenuating noise in order to meet the City of Rancho Cucamonga required noise
standards for Tract 15911. As mentioned in our previous letlet detcd May 15, 2000, a depth of
60 m~ten (200 ft.) of dense wooda would provide approximately a 10 dBA atmuadon.
However, this js a generalization and the actual reduction could be anything between 5 and 15
elBA. In order for this statement to be somewhat valid, the dense woods would have to be
matured and on an cvan plane, Hence, the statement that a 10 dBA attenuation of noise due to
200 ft. of dense woods is a generalization and cannot be accurately supported by future noise
prediction analysis. Furthermore, sinc,~ the worst cas~ observer (at Lot 16) will be ~xposed to
noise levels of 74,6 CNI!~ approximately 200 R. of such dense and matured woods would be
~quir~d. It appears that such mitigation rneasu~s for this particular project will not be feasible.
Additionally, we would not support ~is apl~ioval d~e to the uncertain~y of the dfcctiveness of
such acoustical h, ealmems.
Sincerely,

The FHWA model used these assumptions to Compute the future noise levels at the project site.
Table 3 reports the modeling results in terms of distances to the 60, 65, and 70 CNEL contours.
These represent the distances from the centerline of the roadway to the contour value shown. Note
that the values given in Table 3 do not take into account the effect of intervening topography that
may affect the roadway noise exposure. Topographic effects are included in a subsequent section
of this report. In addition, these projections do not include any futUre vehicle noise reduction
assumptions to take into account the effects of legislation requiring quieter vehicles in the future.

4.1 Combined Noise E~xposure
Projecting the traffic noise levels of two separate noise sources and combining them
logarithmically results in the combined noise level impacting the project site. For example,
calculations have established that building surfaces at Lot 1 of Tract 15912 will be exposed to East
Avenue traffic noise levels of approximately 65.3 CNEL. Building surfaces at Lot 1 of Tract
15912 will be exposed to 1-15 traffic noise levels of approximately 67.8 CNEL. Summing these
noise levels results in a combined traffic noise level of 69.7 CNEL impacting the building
surfaces.
5.0 EXTERIOR NOISE MITIGATION
For the exterior living areas which are exposed to noise levels greater than 65 CNEL, some form
of noise mitigation is required. An effective method of reducing the traffic noise to acceptable
levels is with a noise barrier. Representative cross-sections along 1-15 Freeway and East Avenue
(see Appendix 1A for analysis data) were analyzed utilizing the FHWA Model to determine the
necessary noise barrier locations and heights. The results of the analysis indicate that in order to
meet the 65 CNEL exteriornoise standard, a noise barrier will be required for exterior living areas
adjacent to 1-15 Freeway and East Avenue. The required noise barrier locations and heights to
meet the 65 CNEL exterior noise standard are listed in Table 4, and are shown in Exhibit 2 and 3.

the Low-Medium Residential District (4-8 dwelling units per acre) of the Etiwanda

PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION:
Backqround: The Planning Commission approved Tentative Tracts 15911 and 15912 in
October of 1998. The current request is for a Design Review of the homes, grading, and
landscaping for both tracts.
Site Characteristics: The project sites are located on the east and west sides of East
Avenue and on the north and south sides of an abandoned railroad right-of-way. The Tract
15911 site (east side of East Avenue) is undeveloped land with non-native grasses and
other ruderal plant species. There are no windrows or heritage trees within the project
boundaries. The mature windrow south of the abandoned railroad will not be impacted by
the project. The Tract 15912 site (west of East Avenue) contains a single-family dwelling,
accessory structures, and a collection of inoperable vehicles and debris. There are four
stands of Eucalyptus windrows on-site which show signs of damage by borer beetles, fire,
and barbed wire and are generally in poor condition. A healthy Eucalyptus windrow stand

is south of the site and will not be impacted by the project. The Planning Commission
approved a Tree Removal Permit for removal of the trees with the Tentative Tract Map.
The sites slopes approximately 2 to 3 percent from north to south.
ANALYSIS:
General: The number of lots for the Tract 15911 site is proposed to be reduced from 26 to
23 to accommodate a larger home plan than originally anticipated. Lot size ranges from
7,895 square feet to 18,600 square feet (10,000 square foot average) and homes range
from 2,566 square feet to 3,300 square feet. Four home plans are proposed, each with
four separate elevation types (reverse plotting and side-on garage alternatives provide
even greater variation). A pedestrian paseo with river rock treatment (low maintenance) is
provided at the east side of Tract 15911 site connecting to a community horse trail. The
home designs are the same as were approved for Tract 15798 (currently being
constructed near the southwest corner of the Route 30 and I-15 Freeways) and exhibit a
high level of design integrity.
Variance: The Tentative Tract Maps were conditionally approved by the Planning
Commission in October 1998. As environmental mitigation for freeway traffic noise, high
sound walls are required. The highest sound walls will be along the south and east sides
of the Tract 15911 site (northeast corner of Southern Pacific Railroad/East Avenue). The
wall along the south side is as high as 16 feet overall (retaining wall plus free standing wall
above) and along the east edge as high as 21 feet. The maximum allowed wall height in
Rancho Cucamonga is 6 feet; hence, a Variance is necessary. Staff believes that findings
can be made for approval of the Variance given the unique location of the sites so near the
1-15 Freeway (which is substantially higher than the project site), that strict enforcement of
the 6-foot height limit would preclude development of the site in accordance with the land
use designation since the high walls are necessary to comply with General
Plan/Development Code residential noise level criteria, and the excessive wall height will
not have a demonstrable negative visual impact. The height of the walls are proposed to
be so~ened by a combined split face/fluted block design with vine planting along the base
trained to climb the walls.
Desiqn Review Committee: The Committee (McNiel, Stewart, Coleman) reviewed the
project on February 29, 2000, and recommended approval with conditions. Refer to the
attached Design Review Action Agenda for further details (Exhibit H).
Technical Review Committee: The Grading and Technical Review Committees have
reviewed the project and recommend approval subject to conditions outlined in the
attached Resolution of Approval.
Environmental Assessment: The applicant has completed Part I of the Initial Study and
staff completed Part II (the Environmental Checklist). It was found that local
environmental conditions have not changed appreciably since the tracts were approved in
October of 1998. In brief, various drainage, biological, traffic, and noise issues impact the
site. Mitigation measures for these issues were adopted by the Commission with tract
approval and these mitigation measures are also included in the attached Resolution of

Approval. Staff has determined that, with these mitigation measures, there would not be a
significant adverse impact upon the environment as a result of this project. Staff
recommends issuance of a Mitigated Negative Declaration.
CORRESPONDENCE: This item was advertised as a public hearing in the Inland Valley Daily
Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were mailed to all property owners
within a 300-foot radius of the project site.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve Development
Review 99-72 and Variance 99-11 through adoption of the attached Resolutions of Approval
with Conditions and issuance of a Mitigated Negative Declaration.

Comments:
a)
This project relies upon the construction of a proposed intedm water detention
basin located outside of the project boundaries, The basin is proposed on a 10+
acre site within Tentative Tract 15912. A drainage study was prepared which
analyzes the drainage impacts and the adequacy of the proposed basin to serve
the project sites. Conditions of approval currently require Tentative Tract
15911 to provide adequate drainage facilities to serve the development.
Construction and availability of an interim water detention basin within
Tentative Tract 15912 is required per tract conditions. The proposed water
detention basin is required to be completed prior to occupancy. With
mitigation the impact is not considered significant.
b)
The project is located in an area where the flood hazards are undetermined
(Zone D), Since the project is south of both the Victoda Basin and the future
Route 30 Freeway, it is expected the developer will be able to process a
redesignation to Zone X through FEMA. The Conditions of Approval for
Tentative Tract 15911 require the developer to obtain a re-designation
through FEMA to the satisfaction of the City Engineer.

The southeastern portion of the Tentative Tract 15911 site presently drains to a
culvert that crosses under the 1-15 freeway. The topography of the site will be
altered to allow the lots to drain to the new public streets, where runoff will be
conveyed to approved drainage facilities. Surface runoff currently reaching the
site from off site areas will be conveyed to approved drainage facilities which will
be designed to handle the flows. The impact is not considered significant.

Comments:
a)
The project will not increase vehicle trips or traffic congestion in excess of
projections for the adopted land use, for which the street widths were evaluated
at build-out conditions. The proposed density is less than the density range for
the property. The intersection of East Avenue and Victoria Street handles
significant peak hour traffic from the nearby high school. The conditions of
approval for Tentative Tracts 159'11 and 15912 include the preparation of a
Traffic Signal Study and mitigation to include provisions for installation of
a traffic signal at the intersection of East Avenue and Victoria Street, The

The circulation design features conform with our Street Design, Driveway, and
Intersection Line-of-Sight policies.
e)
The project involves creating residential lots which will generate additional
pedestrian trips, including pedestrian trips to the nearby Etiwanda High School
on Victoria Street. The project design includes sidewalks and Class II bike lanes
along the East Avenue frontage; however, there will be a narrow, unimproved
gap on East Avenue between the project frontage and Victoria Street. In order
to provide for the safety of pedestrians traveling between the project and
the nearby school, the developer shall install a temporary asphalt sidewalk
from the northern boundary of the project to Victoria Street to the
satisfaction of the City Engineer.

Comments:
b)
The project involves removing two large shrubs along the northern boundary of
Tract 15911. The shrubs were identified in the biological report addendum
(Thomas Olsen Associates - July 10, 1998), as a Siberian elm, (Ulmus pumila),
and a blue elderberry shrub. (Sambucus mexicana). The shrubs are non-native
species and do not have historical, cultural, or scenic value. The shrubs do not
represent significant bird or wildlife resources. The removal of the shrubs is not
considered to be a significant impact. The project will also cause removal of 4
mature windrows on site. An arborist report by Thomas Olsen Associates dated
May 15, 1998, indicates the 4 mature windrows have suffered numerous losses
and show marked signs of borer beetle infestation or damage from other
sources (fire and barbed wire). None of the 4 mature windrows has a realistic
probability of recovery; nor do they have significant habitat value or wind-control
value in their present condition. The 4 windrows are not designated as existing

The study indicates a noise barrier ranging in height from 6 feet to 17 feet
in height will be necessary to mitigate freeway noise. High split faced
masonry walls are proposed consistent with noise study
recommendations. In addition, interior noise levels will be mitigated
through the imposition of a "Windows Closed" condition with a means of
mechanical ventilation and upgraded windows. A final acoustical analysis
shall be required prior to obtaining building permits for the project. The
design of the project shall follow the recommendations and mitigation
measures of the acoustical engineer, and shall comply with the current
building standards and codes at the time of construction. With mitigation,
the impact is not considered significant.

execute an agreement with the Districts to provide the additional mitigation or to
provide full mitigation. Full mitigation may be accomplished by means of a
requirement to form, or participate in an existing, Mello-Roos Community
Facilities District for school facilities.

DESIGN REVIEW COMMENTS
Brent Le Count February 29, 2000
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND DEVELOPMENT REVIEW 99-72 - RYLAND HOMES-
The proposed construction of 78 homes within Tentative Tracts 15911 and 15912 in the
Low-Medium District (4 to 8 dwelling units per acre) of the Etiwanda Specific Plan, located on the
southwest and northeast corners of East Avenue and the Southern Pacific right-of-way - APN: 227-
131-005 and 227-141-011 and 012, Related Files: Variance 99-11, Tentative Tract 15911 and
15912.
Design Parameters: The Tentative Tract Maps were approved by the Planning Commission in
October 1998. As environmental mitigation for freeway traffic noise, high sound walls am required.
The highest sound walls will be along the south and east sides of the Tract 15911 site (northeast
corner of SPRR/East Avenue). The wall along the south side as high as 16 feet overall (retaining
wall plus free standing wall above) and along the east edge as high as 21 feet. The applicant has
submitted a request for a Variance (Variance 99-11 ) for the excessive wall height. The height of
the walls is proposed to be so~ened by a combined split face/fluted block design with vine planting
along the base trained to climb the walls.
The number of lots for the Tract 15911 site is proposed to be reduced from 26 to 23 to
accommodate a larger home plan than originally anticipated. Lot sizes range from 7,895 square
feet to 18,600 square feet (10,000 square foot average) and homes range from 2,566 square feet
to 3,300 square feet. Four home plans are proposed, each with four separate elevation types
(reverse plotting and side-on garage alternatives provide even greater variation). A pedestrian
paseo with river rock treatment (low maintenance) is provided at the east side of Tract 15911 site
connecting to a community horse trail.
Staff Comments: The following comments are intended to provide an outline for Committee
discussion.
Major Issues: The following broad design issues will be the focus of Committee discussion
regarding this project:
The applicant has been working diligently with staff to resolve major issues. There are no
remaining outstanding major issues. The home designs are the same as were approved
for Tract '15798 (near the southwest corner of the Route 30 and I-t5 Freeways) and
exhibit a high level of design integrity.
Secondary Issues: Once all of the major issues have been addressed, and time permitting, the
Committee will discuss the following secondary design issues:
The approved colors for Ryland Homes include a deep purple paint that is used extensively
on siding of certain elevations. The Committee should carefully review the proposed color
samples, and visit their existing homes in Tract 15798 (near the southwest corner of the
Route 30 and I-15 Freeways).
The East Avenue Parkway walls (stone pilaster with stucco walls and river rock planters) for
Tract 15912 site should have regularly spaced indents similar to or matching that of Tract
15911.
3. Rear yard fencing visible from public streets (at top of slope) shall be decorative masonry.
Rip-rap application for detention basin shall be as naturalized as possible.
DRC ACTION AGENDA
DR 99-72 - RYLAND HOMES
February 29, 2000
Page 2
Retaining walls used in rear yard areas shall be decorative masonry and shall have vine
planting at top of wall to cascade down over walls.
The developer proposes split face block walls along the east and south tract boundaries
because it requires less maintenance. The north tract wall is proposed as stucco. The
Committee should discuss whether it is acceptable to have a wall material transition from
stucco to split face at the southwest and northeast corners of Tract 15911 (northeast corner
of East Avenue and SPRR). The established theme for the East Avenue Parkway wall is
stucco with stone pilasters. Stone covered pilasters are proposed at transition points.
Adjust pad elevations, wall heights, and slopes for lots along East Avenue to avoid
excessively high retaining walls (such as Lots 1, 2, and 3 in Tract 15912 and Lots 2 and 33
in Tract 15911).
Policy Issues: The following items are a matter of Planning Commission policy and should be
incorporated into the project design without discussion:
Fieldstone veneer shall be natural river rock as opposed to a manufactured product. The
developer mistakenly used manufactured river rock on Tract 15798 (near the southwest
comer of the Route 30 and I-15 Freeways); however, staff has issued a correction to remove
and replace with authentic river rock. Other types of stone veneers may be manufactured.
2. All walls visible from or facin9 a street shall be decorative masonry.
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval with the above comments.
Design Review Committee Action:
The Committee recommends approval subject to staffs comments and the following:
1. Provide a two-tone color scheme with the darker color on the base to mitigate visual impact of
excessively high walls along the south and east boundaries of Tract 15911.
2. Provide a single-story home plotting along the north side of Tract 15911 to the degree possible.

No. 99-72, as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereina~er in this Resolution, the subject
Development Review request is referred to as "the application."
2. On the 14th day of October 1998, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho
Cucamonga conducted a meeting and approved Tentative Tracts 15911 and 15912 which are the
sites of the current application.
3. On the 12th day of April 2000, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho
Cucamonga conducted a meeting on the application and concluded said meeting on that date.
4. All legal prerequisites prior to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.
B. Resolution.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby found, determined, and resolved by the Planning
Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga as follows:
1. This Commission hereby specifically finds that all of the facts set forth in the Recitals,
Part A, of this Resolution are true and correct.
2. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above-
referenced meeting on April 12, 2000, including written and oral staff reports, this Commission
hereby specifically finds as follows:
a. The application applies to property located on both sides of East Avenue on the
north and south sides of an abandoned Southern Pacific railroad right-of-way with a street frontage
of 1,240 feet on East Avenue and lot depth of 600 to 1,300 feet and is presently vacant and
b. The property to the north of the subject site is vacant and developed with single
family homes, the property to the south consists of vacant land and the I-15 Freeway, the property
to the east is vacant and the 1-15 Freeway, and the property to the west is vacant and developed
with single family homes: and
c. The proposed home plans are the same as were recently approved for
Tract 15798 and exhibit a high level of design integrity; and
d. The General Plan and the Etiwanda Specific Plan designate a public Community
Trail off-site within the railroad easement to the south of the Tract 15911 site; and
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 00~31
DR 99-72 - RYLAND HOMES

Page 2
e. The property is one block away from Etiwanda High School and approximately two
blocks away from Etiwanda Intermediate School and will generate additional traffic and school
children that will use East Avenue and Victoria Street; and
f. High sound walls are proposed which will reduce noise from the I-15 Freeway for
future residents; and
g. The excessive height of the sound walls will be mitigated by using split faced and
fluted block and a two toned color scheme; and
h. The frontage improvements include construction of the East Avenue Parkway wall
consistent with the Etiwanda Specific Plan; and
i. Environmental impacts related to drainage, traffic, and noise will be mitigated to
a level of less than significant.
3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above-
referenced meeting and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs I and 2 above,
this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows:
a. That the proposed project is consistent with the objectives of the General Plan; and
b. That the proposed use is in accord with the objectives of the Development Code
and the purposes of the district in which the site is located; and
c. That the proposed use is in compliance with each of the applicable provisions of
the Development Code; and
d. That the proposed use, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be
detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or
improvements in the vicinity.
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 Planning Commission 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 Monitoring Program attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference,
based upon the findings as follows:
a. That the Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared in compliance with the
California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as amended, and the State CEQA guidelines
promulgated thereunder; that said Mitigated Negative Declaration and the Initial Study prepared
therefore reflect the independent judgment of the Planning Commission; and, further, this
Commission has reviewed and considered the information contained in said Mitigated Negative
Declaration with regard to the application.
b. Although the Mitigated Negative Declaration identifies certain significant
environmental effects that will result if the project is approved, all significant effects have been
reduced to an acceptable level by imposition of mitigation measures on.the project which are listed
below as conditions of approval.

3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above-
referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs I and 2
above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows:
a. That strict or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulations
would result in practical difficulty or unnecessary physical hardship inconsistent with the objectives
of the Development Code in that the only alternative to mitigate freeway noise without exceeding
the six foot wall height limit would be to construct very high earthen berms which would severely limit
the site area available for residential development.
b. That there are exceptional or extraordinary 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 in that the site is located adjacent to the 1-15 Freeway which
generates substantial traffic noise. Freeway noise must be reduced to acceptable levels in order to
permit residential development of the site consistent with noise thresholds established by the
General Plan and the Development Code.
c. That stdct or literal interpretation and enforcement of the specified regulation would
deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the same district in
that compliance with the six foot height limit would preclude the site from being developed in concert
with the permitted land uses due to excessive freeway noise.
d. That the granting of the Variance will not constitute a grant of special privilege
inconsistent with the limitations on other properties classified in the same district in that most other
properties in the district are not equally impacted by the I-15 Freeway noise.
e. That the granting of the Vadance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety,
or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity in that for the most part
the walls will not be completely visible to the public and the walls will have a two-tone color scheme
with split faced and fluted block to soften their appearance.
4. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, and 3 above, this
Commission hereby approves the application subject to each and every condition set forth below:
a) Provide a two-tone color scheme with the darker color on the base of the walls.
Additionally use a split face/fluted block design along with a vine planting at the base to mitigate
visual impact of excessively high walls along the south and east boundaries of the Tract 1911 site.
5. The Secretary to this Commission shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.
APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 12TH DAY OF APRIL 2000.

Brent Le Count, Associate Planner, presented the staff report.
Chairman McNiel asked if some of the proposed wall runs along the Rails to Trail connection.
Mr. Le Count responded affirmatively and explained that the maximum wall height at that point would
be 11 feet.
Chairman McNiel asked for a description of the treatment that would be used for the wall.
Mr. Le Count explained that to mitigate the appearance of the wall, certain materials would be
required such as split faced/fluted block, a two-tone color scheme to break up the visual height of
the wall and vine pockets.
Chairman McNiel asked if the vine pockets would be sufficient for graftill coverage.
Commissioner Stewart concurred that she definitely wanted vine pockets.
Mr. Le Count stated it would be enough if the little bunnies don't eat them all.
Commissioner Tolstoy suggested that Mr. Le Count call RBF Associates and let them know that the
freeway should be referred to as State Highway 15, not 31.
Chairman McNiel opened the public hearing.
John Melcher, P.O. Box 1085, Rancho Cucamonga, representing Ryland Homes, stated that they

April 12, 2000
Commissioner Tolstoy commented that as a rule, he hates high walls and he hates to see people
walled in, but that since it is required for the comfort of the people living there, he has no problem
with it.
Chairman McNiel commented that the problem in this case is that in order to have enough berm
height that would reduce the height of the wall, valuable land would be consumed which is intended
for a linear park. He noted that they had to take the approach of the lesser of two evils by providing
the wall height, but to disguise it in the best way possible.
Commissioner. Tolstoy noted that in 1977, Rancho Cucamonga was known as the '%Nailed city."

RUdy Zeledon, AsSistant Planner, presented the staff report. Mr. Zeledon reported that several
telephone Calls had been received from residents on the north side of the proposed project with
complaints that their walls had been damaged by the rough grading taking place on the site. Mr.
Zeledon further explained that the applicant has been working with the residents on a case by case
basis to repair or replace the damaged walls.
Chairman McNiel asked if there were any questions.
Commissioner Tolstoy asked if most of the water runoff from the project would drain to Haven
Avenue.
Mr. Zeledon stated that the lots will drain to a catch Basin.
Chairman McNiel opened the public hearing.
Jimmy Previty from Forecast Homes, 10670 Civic Center Drive in Rancho Cucamonga, stated they
are anxious to do business in Rancho Cucamonga.
Commissioner Stewart asked how the negotiations with the residents are progressing in relation to
the damaged walls.
Mr. Previty stated it is going faidy well and that they had already replacad one homeowner's wall and
making repairs to another. He continued by noting that they were in an unusual situation because
the map was 10 years old and previous agreements had been made with the homeowners in regard
to the common wall. He commented that some of the homeowners were dissatisfied with the
original agreement, others wanted a new wall and some others did not. He added that from their
marketing standpoint, they would prefer to replace the entire wall, but some of the homeowners were

b. The property to the north of the subject site is vacant and developed with single-
family homes, the propertyto the south consists of vacant land and the 1-15 Freeway, the propertyto
the east is vacant and the I-15 Freeway, and the properly to the west is vacant and developed with
single-family homes; and
c. The proposed home plans are the same as were recently approved for Tract 15798
and exhibit a high level of design integrity; and
d. The General Plan and the Etiwanda Specific Plan designate a public Community
Trail off-site within the railroad easement to the south of the Tract 15911 site; and
e. The property is one block away from Etiwanda High School and approximately two
blocks away from Etiwanda Intermediate School and will generate additional traffic and school
children that will use East Avenue and Victoda Street; and

b. While high walls proposed within the development may cause large shadow areas,
these areas only impact homes within the project and any impact is offset by the noise attenuation
function of the walls; and
c. It is feasible to design and engineer walls high enough to effectively mitigate
freeway noise; and
d. The walls are designed with decorative masonry and include vine pockets with
provisions for vine planting to grow onto the outside of the walls; and

Page 2
Due to cost limitations in Assessment District 8 the two property owners, preparing
to record two final maps each, petitioned the City Council to form Landscape
Maintenance District No. 9. The City Council, at its meeting of May 17, 2000,
initiated the formation proceedings, approved the Assessment Engineers Report,
and declared its intent to form LMD 9.
The boundary of proposed Landscape Maintenance District No. 9 generally
encompasses the area south of Victoria Avenue and east of Etiwanda Avenue, north
of the Interstate 15 Freeway, and the area north of Foothill Boulevard and west of
East Avenue, south of the Interstate 15 Freeway (Exhibit A). The district will be
formed with Tracts 15711-1, 15711-2, 15911 and 15912. Additional tracts within this
district boundary will be annexed at the time of recordation.
Assessment ballots were mailed to all affected property owners on May 18, 2000.

BACKGROUND
On June 26, 1984, the electors within the boundaries of Community Facilities District No. 84-1 (Day
Creek Drainage System) authorized the District to incur bonded indebtedness in the principal amount
of $20,225,000. In August 1985 bonds in the amount of $18,000,000 were issued to finance the
construction and installation of public capital drainage facilities to serve and provide drainage
protection to all properties located within the boundaries of Community Facilities District No. 84-1
(Day Creek Drainage System). In March of 1986 the area bounded on the west by Milliken Avenue,
on the north by the northerly City limits, on the east by Rochester Avenue and on the south by
Highland Avenue was annexed into the district.
The first annual special tax rate of $350 per acre was set by City Council in Fiscal Year 1985/86.
This rate has never been increased in the ensuing fiscal years. However, on May 5, 1992, the City
conducted a re~mding of this district. Bonds were issued for $16,530,000.00 to cover the remaining
debt. The savings from this refunding were passed on to the residents and decreased the special
annual tax fi:om $350 per acre to $297.48 per acre. This district was again refunded on July 1, 1999
as part of the City of Rancho Cucamonga Reassessment District No. 1999-1 under the Rancho
Cucamonga Public Finance Authority (the "Authority". The Authority issued bonds to acquire the
Acquired Obligations, fund separate reserve funds and pay the costs of issuing the Bonds. The
acquired obligations for Community Facilities District 84-1 is the aggregate principal amount of
$8,745,000. The savings from this refunding was once again passed on to residents and the special
tax is now $268.07 per acre. Under the Loan and Pledge Agreement the Redevelopment Agency
contributes sufficient ~mds each fiscal year, that when combined with the special tax meet the
requirements of the annual debt service payment.
All phases of construction for the Day Creek Drainage System are completed. The construction
contract was administered by the County of San Bernardino.
FISCAL YEAR 2000/2001
The current rate of $268.07 per acre for fiscal year 2000/2001 along with the Redevelopment Agency
contribution of $975,000 will provide sufficient funding to pay debt service in the amount of
$1,645,960.

It is recommended that City Council adopt the attached Resolution authorizing an annual
benefit assessment levy for the maintenance and/or servicing of a drainage channel within
Drainage Area No. 91-2 (Day Canyon Drainage Basin). There is no increase from the
current tax rate for fiscal year 2000/2001.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS

benefit assessments for the maintenance and/or servicing of a 27+ acre-foot desilting basin and a
1,460+ linear foot concrete drainage channel within Drainage Area No. 91-2, Day Canyon
Drainage Basin area.
Drainage Area No. 91-2 was a developer initiated district. Protection of the properties from the
overland flows was necessary in order to receive development rights from the City. The costs
associated with the maintenance of the district was intended to be passed onto the property
owners as they would receive special and direct benefit that is distinguishable from the general
public.
There are 350 homes that will be constructed, however, to date there are 268 single family homes
that have been approved. The total annual cost for maintenance is thirty-two thousand, two
hundred and sixty dollars ($32,260) for a total cost to each home of ninety-two dollars and
seventeen cents ($92.17)

DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE
The properties within Dr~fmage Area No. 91-2 are located within the boundaries of the Day Canyon
Drainage Basin area. Protection of the properties within the district from overland flows requires
the construction of a 27+ acre-foot desilting basin and a 1,460+ linear foot concrete drainage
channel. The channel improvements will intercept the ove~and flows prior to reaching the
properties and carry the storm water rimoff, sediment, trash, organic material, and related debris to
a desilting basin.
Each year the sediment, trash, organic material, and other related debris which accumulates in the
desilting basin and channel must be removed and transported to an approved spoils site. The
services proposed to be financed from the revenue derived from the levy and collection of the annual
benefit assessment are as follows:
A. Monthly on-site inspections of the desilting basin and channel.
B. Bi-monthly weed abatement program for the desilting basin and channel.
C. Removal of accumulated sediment, trash, organic material, and other related debris
from the desilting basin and channel to an approved spoils site. This service is expected to be
provided annually. During times of excessive rain fall, this service may be required more frequently.
