A. Recitals. 1. RC1 Homes, LLC filed an application for the approval of Design Review DRC2014-00732, as described in the title of this Resolution. Hereinafter in this Resolution, the subject Design Review request is referred to as "the application." 2. On the 8th day of February 2017, the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga conducted a noticed public hearing on the application and concluded said hearing on that date. 3. 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 public hearing of February 8, 2017, including written and oral staff reports, together with public testimony, this Commission hereby specifically finds as follows: a. The 1.01 acre project site is located at the southwest corner of 6th Street and Hellman Avenue; and b. The triangular-shaped project site is currently developed with a single-family residence and a large garage/storage building and was previously used for the storage of construction equipment. All the existing on-site improvements including two trees will be removed as part of the project scope; and c. The General Plan Land Use and Zoning designation for the project site is Low Medium (LM) District, which permits the development of up to 8 dwelling units per acre. There is a multi-family development within the Low Medium (LM) District to the north of the project site, across 6th street. There are single-family residences within the Low Medium (LM) District to the east of the project site, across Hellman Avenue. There is a flood control channel within the Flood Control (FC) District to the south and west of the project site; and d. The project is for the site plan and architectural review of an 8-unit, multi-family project. e. The project includes the subdivision of air space (Tentative Tract Map SUBTT19918) for the purpose of creating a one lot subdivision for 8 residential condominium units; and PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-08 DESIGN REVIEW DRC2014-00732 — RC1 HOMES, LLC February 8, 2017 Page 2 f. The project also includes a Minor Exception (DRC2016-00657) to reduce the street side building setbacks by up to 10 percent, a Minor Exception (DRC2016-00658) to increase the maximum per wall height by up to 2 feet and a Tree Removal Permit (DRC2015-00310) to remove 2 trees. 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 1 and 2 above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows: a. The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan. The General Plan land use designation for the project site is Low Medium (LM). The General Plan states that Low Medium (LM) land use district is characterized by detached and attached housing structures that contain either one or two individual dwelling units. The project is for the development of 4 buildings made up of 2 units per building, in accord with the intent of the Low Medium (LM) land use district; and b. The proposed use is in accord with the objective of the Development Code and the purposes of the district in which the site is located. The Development Code states that the Low Medium (LM) District is for the development of 4 to 8 dwelling units per acre. The Low Medium (LM) District permits the development of multi-family projects. The project is for the development of an 8-unit, multi- family project on 1.01 acre site, in accord with intent of the Low Medium (LM) District; and c. The proposed use is in compliance with each of the applicable provisions of the Development Code. The project will be in compliance with the Development Code with approval of the Minor Exception (DRC2016-00657) to reduce the required street side building setback by 10 percent and Minor Exception (DRC2016-00658) to increase the maximum permitted wall height by up to 2 feet; and d. 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. The Initial Study Part II outlines potential environmental impacts related to the project and identifies project specific mitigation measures that reduce these impacts to less-than-significant. 4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the application, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment for the application, the Planning Commission finds that no subsequent or supplemental environmental document is required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in connection with the review and approval of this application based upon the following findings and determinations: 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. During the circulation period for the proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND), staff received correspondence from the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) for the project related MND requesting the inclusion of a mitigation measure related to asbestos emissions from the demolition of the existing on-site structures. In response, staff has modified an existing mitigation measure to the Initial Study Part II and related CEQA documents to require the project to comply with SCAQMD Rule 1403 (asbestos emissions from demolition/renovation) for the demolition of on-site PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-08 DESIGN REVIEW DRC2014-00732 — RC1 HOMES, LLC February 8, 2017 Page 3 structures. Section 15073.5(c)(1) of the CEQA Guidelines states that recirculation of the MND is not required when a mitigation measure replaces with a mitigation measure that is more effective pursuant to CEQA Section 15074.1. CEQA Section 15074.1(b)(1) and (2) states that prior to adopting a substituted mitigation measure, 1) a public hearing for the project shall be held, and 2) a written finding shall be adopted that the new measure is more effective in mitigating potential significant effects and that it in itself will not cause any potentially significant effect on the environment. In accordance with this requirement, a public hearing for the project and MND was held on February 8, 2017, and the Planning Commission finds based on substantial evidence presented at that hearing that the new mitigation measure is equivalent or more effective in mitigating or avoiding potential significant effects and it in itself will not cause and potentially significant effect on the environment. The modified mitigation measure will strengthen the Air Quality section of the City's MND by limiting the potential release of asbestos, and will not cause significant effects on the environment as it will ensure that if asbestos is encountered on the project it will be properly handled in a manner in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 1403. c. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and all comments received 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. The Planning Commission further finds that the Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the Planning Commission. Based on these findings, the Planning Commission hereby adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration. d. The Planning Commission 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 Planning Commission therefore adopts the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project. e. The custodian of records for the Initial Study, Mitigated Negative Declaration and all other materials which constitute the record of proceedings upon which the Planning Commission's recommendation is based is the Planning Director of the City of Rancho 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. 5.

Rule 445 was adopted in March 2008 to reduce emissions of PM2.5 and precludes the installation of indoor or outdoor wood burning devices (i.e. fireplaces/hearths) in new development on or after March 9, 2009. Biological Resources 1) Three days prior to the removal of vegetation or ground-disturbing activities, a breeding bird survey that is in conformance with the Migratory Bird Treaty Act shall be required to determine whether nesting is occurring. Occupied nests shall not be disturbed unless a qualified biologist verifies through non- invasive methods that either (a) the adult birds have not begun egg-laying or incubation; or (b) the juveniles from the occupied nests are foraging independently and are capable of independent survival. If the biologist is unable to verify one of the above conditions, then no disturbance shall occur within 300 feet of non-raptor nests, and within 5,000 feet of raptor nests, during the breeding season to avoid abandonment of young. If nests are discovered, they shall be avoided through the establishment of an appropriate buffer setback, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. The temporary "no construction" area shall be maintained until the nest has completed its cycle, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. Once the nest cycle is complete and all nestlings have fledged and have left the nest, construction in the area may resume. 2) Perform a Burrowing Owl Survey that is in conformance with the Department of Fish and Wildlife Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation and submit the written report outlining the findings to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and the Planning Department within 30 days of groundbreaking activity. The survey shall include a habitat assessment, survey and impact analysis. The Burrowing Owl Survey shall follow the following protocol: Burrowing Owl Survey methodology shall be based on Appendix D (Breeding and Non-breeding Season Surveys and Reports) of the CDFW Staff Report. Results of the pre-construction survey shall be provided to CDFW and the City. If the pre-construction survey does not identify burrowing owls on the project site, then no further mitigation is required. If burrowing owls are found to be utilizing the project site during the pre-construction survey, measures shall be developed by the qualified biologist in coordination with CDFW to avoid Impacting occupied burrows during the nesting period. These PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-08 DESIGN REVIEW DRC2014-00732 — RC1 HOMES, LLC February 8, 2017 Page 7 measures shall be based on the most current CDFW protocols and will at minimum include establishment of buffer setbacks from occupied burrows and owl monitoring. If ground-disturbing activities are delayed or suspended for more than 30 days after the pre-construction survey, the site shall be resurveyed for owls. During the non-breeding season from September 1 through January 31, if burrows are occupied by migratory or non-migratory resident burrowing owls during a pre-construction survey, burrow exclusion and/or closure may be used to exclude owls from those burrows. Burrow exclusion and/or closure should only be conducted by a qualified wildlife biologist in coordination with CDFW using the most current CDFW guidelines. During the avian nesting season from February 1 through August 31, if nests are discovered, they shall be avoided through establishment of an appropriate buffer setback, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. The temporary "no construction" area would have to be maintained until the nest has completed its cycle, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. Once the nest cycle is complete and all nestlings have fledged and have left the nest, construction in the area may resume. 3) Replace the western sycamore with the largest available nursery grown specimen available (typically 24" box). 4) A good faith effort shall be made to relocate the Washington palm on-site. If determined to be unfeasible, replace with a 15-gallon size tree. Cultural Resources 1) If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified archaeologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. With the assistance of the archaeologist, the City of Rancho Cucamonga will: • Enact interim measures to protect undesignated sites from demolition or significant modification without an opportunity for the City to establish its archaeological value. • Consider establishing provisions to require incorporation of archaeological sites within new developments, using their special qualities as a theme or focal point. • Pursue educating the public about the archaeological heritage of the area. • Prepare a mitigation plan consistent with Section 21083.2 Archaeological resources of CEQA to eliminate adverse project effects on significant, important, and unique prehistoric resources, including but not limited to, avoiding archaeological sites, capping or covering sites PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-08 DESIGN REVIEW DRC2014-00732 — RC1 HOMES, LLC February 8, 2017 Page 8 with soil, planning the site as a park or green space or paying a in-kind mitigation fee. • Prepare a technical resources management report, documenting the inventory, evaluation, and proposed mitigation of resources within the project area. Submit one copy of the completed report with original illustrations, to the San Bernardino County Archaeological Information Center for permanent archiving. 2) If any paleontological resource (i.e. plant or animal fossils) are encountered before or during grading, the developer will retain a qualified paleontologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. The paleontologist shall submit a report of findings that will also provide specific recommendations regarding further mitigation measures (i.e., paleontological monitoring) that may be appropriate. Where mitigation monitoring is appropriate, the program must include, but not be limited to, the following measures: • Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow the rapid removal of fossils with minimal construction delay, to the site full- time during the interval of earth-disturbing activities. • Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded, divert earth-disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has completed salvage. If construction personnel make the discovery, the grading contractor should immediately divert construction and notify the monitor of the find. • Prepare, identify, and curate all recovered fossils for documentation in the summary report and transfer to an appropriate depository (i.e., San Bernardino County Museum). • Submit summary report to City of Rancho Cucamonga. Transfer collected specimens with a copy of the report to San Bernardino County Museum. Geology and Soils 1) The site shall be treated with water or other soil-stabilizing agent (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) daily to reduce PM,() emissions, in accordance with SCAQMD Rule 403 or re-planted with drought resistant landscaping as soon as possible. 2) Frontage public streets shall be swept according to a schedule established by the City to reduce PM10 emissions associated with vehicle tracking of soil off-site. Timing may vary depending upon time of year of construction. 3) Grading operations shall be suspended when wind speeds exceed 25 mph to minimize PM10 emissions from the site during such episodes. PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-08 DESIGN REVIEW DRC2014-00732 — RC1 HOMES, LLC February 8, 2017 Page 9 4) Chemical soil-stabilizers (approved by SCAQMD and RWQCB) shall be applied to all inactive construction areas that remain inactive for 96 hours or more to reduce PM10 emissions. Greenhouse Gasses 1) The project must comply with all rules that assist in reducing short-term air pollutant emission in compliance with SCAWMD Rule 403 regarding fugitive dust including treating the site with water or other soil-stabilizing agent twice daily or replanting disturbed areas as quickly as possible. 2) The construction contractor shall select construction equipment based on low-emission factors and high energy efficiency and submit a statement on the grading plan that ensures all construction equipment will be tuned and maintained in accordance with the manufactures specification. 3) Trucks shall not idle continuously for more than 5 minutes. 4) Alternative fuel powered equipment shall be utilized in lieu of gasoline- or diesel-powered engines where feasible. 5) Construction should be timed so as not to interfere with peak-hour traffic. 6) Ridesharing and transit incentives shall be supported and encouraged for construction crew. 7) Construction and Building materials shall be produced and/or manufactured locally. Use "Green Building Materials" such as materials that are resource efficient, recycled and manufactured in an environmentally friendly way including low-volatile-organic-compound (VOC) materials. 8) Design all buildings to exceed California Building Code Title 24 energy standard including but not limited to any combination of: • Increased insulation • Limit air leakage through the structure • Incorporate Energy Star or better rated windows, space heating and cooling equipment, light fixtures, and appliances • Landscape and developed site utilizing shade, prevailing winds and landscaping • Install efficient lighting and lighting control systems • Install light colored "cool" roofs and cool pavements. • Install solar or light emitting diodes (LED's) for outdoor lighting. PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 17-08 DESIGN REVIEW DRC2014-00732 — RC1 HOMES, LLC February 8, 2017 Page 10 9) Prepare a comprehensive water conservation strategy appropriate for the project and include the following: • Install water efficient landscapes and irrigation systems and devices in compliance with the City of Rancho Cucamonga Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance. • Use reclaimed water for landscaping within the project if available and/or install the infrastructure to deliver and use reclaimed water. • Design building to be water efficient by installing water efficient fixtures and appliances including low flow faucets, dual flush toilets and waterless urinals/water heaters. • Design irrigation to control runoff and to remove water to non-vegetated surfaces. 10) Reuse and recycle construction and demolition waste.
