Traffic, while there is usually enough on -site parking, a lot of people park off -site and burden the surrounding residential streets. We would ask that no street parking is posted and enforced. 2. No church access be allowed via Rolling Pasture PI. 3. Incorporate the extension of Wilson Ave for ingress and egress. 4. No traffic allowed to enter the neighborhood via Horse Thief Place if Wilson is extended that far. 5. Activities restricted to the hours of 0800 to 2100 hours. 6. All site lighting limited to 12' in height and equipped with "House Shields" and 0.0 foot-candles of light at the property lines. Sincerely submitted, Wayne and Karen Lee Lisa and Jeff Unger 13123 Carriage Trail Ct Rancho Cucamonga, CA. 91739 Planning Commissioner City of Rancho Cucamonga 10500 Civic Center Dr Rancho Cucamonga, CA. 91730 April 11, 2020 RE: Conditional use permit DRC2017-00194 (George Botros) Dear Sir/Madam QpkN N� y.. We object to the proposed construction of the 12,350 square foot church located just north of our quiet residential neighborhood. The following points should be considered prior to granting approval for construction: 1) The developments located south of the construction site on East Ave. will experience an increase in traffic and traffic congestion. Two schools (Colony and Summit) are located .8 mile south of the proposed construction site. On December 5, 2013, a 9 year old girl- Ashlyn Gardner was struck and killed by a truck as she was crossing the intersection of East and Banyan. Our neighbors use East Ave as a cycling and exercise path. We anticipate that the increase in traffic heading to and from the church will likely place local residents at risk for traumatic injuries. 2) East Ave has just one southbound and one northbound lane. Prior to and after school each day, East is significantly congested as parents drop off or pick up their children. Those of us who exit our community at the intersection of Philly Drive and East Ave. are often unable to safely turn on East Ave during school hours. We anticipate that the increase in traffic during church hours would not only worsen access to East, but increase the risk of car accidents at this intersection. 3) Prior to giving approval for church construction, the City of Rancho Cucamonga should require the developer to place permanent barriers on Horse Thief PI and Rolling Pastures PI which would prohibit access to our development. 4) The City of Rancho Cucamonga should place a stop light at the corner of East Ave and Philly Drive which would improve the Southbound traffic flow and speed. Thank you for considering our proposals. We look forward to hearing from you in the near future. Sincerely, t ('/ Jeff Unger, MD, FAAFP, FACE c/rYo� /� �F� R Ncyo cUCAMoNeA rt- Dear RC planning commissioner, C /Z620 . P, an;, .. I understand the planing commission is holding a public hearing regarding the project plan located at the southwest corner of East and Wilson in the Very Low (VL) Residential District of the Etiwanda Specific Plan; APN: 0225-123-05 on Wednesday, April 22, 2020, but I won't be able to attend it for the safety of my family and the community due to Covid-19 pandemic. In my absence for the hearing, I would like to offer my written comments and suggestions regarding the project as a long time resident of this community. The project which includes structures for church and social hall will no doubt bring unwanted traffic and congestion to the community, and we are asking the developer to include 2 additions to the project. 1. Build permanent traffic barriers on Horse Thief Place and Rolling Pasture Place which would prohibit access to the development from inside the community. 2. Place a stop sign at the corner of East avenue and Philly drive which would regulate the south bound traffic to improve the safety of residents and motorists. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Kunah Yoon 5719 Horse Thief PL. Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91739 Lisa and Jeff Unger 13123 Carriage Trail Ct Rancho Cucamonga, CA. 91739 Planning Commissioner City of Rancho Cucamonga 10500 Civic Center Dr Rancho Cucamonga, CA. 91730 April 23, 2020 RE: Conditional use permit DRC2017-00194 (George Botros) Dear Sir/Madam: c 17-YOFRANC80 Op C4%,011GA ?0 1111VNING This letter is in response to the virtual zoom meeting held by the RC Planning Commission on 4/22/2020. I believe that this meeting had no legal jurisdiction as residents residing in the vicinity of the proposed construction site were NOT effectively notified about the date, time or nature of this meeting. The California open meetings laws give citizens the right to attend the meetings of state bodies and the legislative bodies of local agencies, with an exception for closed meetings. California law does not limit access to meetings to a specific category of people or a profession, such as "the traditional press." Anyone may attend a meeting that falls under the requirements of the Bagley -Keene Act and the Brown Act. California open meetings laws require covered government bodies to post notice of their regular meetings in a publicly accessible place and to mail notice to those persons who have specifically requested notice. State bodies covered by the Bagley -Keene Act must post notice of their meetings on the Internet at least 30 days beforehand. They must also mail notice to anyone who has requested notice in writing (this appears to be free). The notice must give you the time, date, location of the meeting, and the name, address, and phone number of a person who can provide further information before the meeting. It also must contain a specific agenda for the meeting, including a brief description of items to be discussed. Although I sent a letter to the planning commission earlier this month objecting to the proposed project, I heard about the meeting ONLY through a neighbor. Thus, last night's zoom meeting could be considered as a violation of the Bagley -Keene Act and the Brown Act. Therefore, I strongly recommend that another meeting be held to address the concerns of our neighbors about the construction of this church north of our property. There was discussion of constructing a gate between Rolling Pasture Place and the church parking lot which would allow access to emergency vehicles only. We have requested that an additional gate be placed on the north end of Horse Thief Lane. One of the planning commissioners implied that construction of such a gate would not be needed as a barrier already exists which he assumed would minimize the cross traffic between the church and our properties. Perhaps that commissioner was referring to THIS barrier: North Barrier Between Horse Thief Lane and The Dirt Road This rather flimsy NON -barrier, can be located down the street every time the wind blows more than 20 MPH! The barrier keeps no one out of our property and is a favorite intersection for dirt bikers and off road racers. We MUST INSIST that a gated barrier be placed on this street as a condition for building the church I Otherwise, foot traffic through our property will likely increase when the church is open for business. Brian mentioned that the traffic at the round about on Wilson and East would be minimal with the addition of the church. He is absolutely INCORRECT. I invite Brian as well as other members of your commission to stand on that same round about between the hours of 7-8:30 AM and 1-4 PM weekdays. The traffic moving both North and South on East Ave is quite dangerous as families drop off their children for school. Pedestrians can often be seen crossing East Ave during these times. Church hours will simply add to the misery we feel 5 days a week as we attempt to exit onto East Ave from Philly Ave. We feel that the church construction will impact safety of all members of our community. We do not want anyone else killed as they walk across the street. On December 5, 2013, a 9 year old girl- Ashlyn Gardner was struck and killed by a truck as she was crossing the intersection of East and Banyan. Finally, we object to the construction noise that will occur as this church is built. In summary, we feel that any approval for constructing this church should be delayed until we can be properly notified and be allowed to attend the planning commission meeting IN PERSON. If the planning commission sees fit to approve this project, the church MUST provide gates at both Rolling Pasture Place and Horse Thief Lane accessible to emergency traffic only. Finally, we disagree that traffic flow will not be a major problem as the only access to the church parking lot is from East Ave, located just south of the round about.

Ms. McIntosh, I am in receipt of your letter dated April 27,2020 and respectfully disagree that the virtual Zoom meeting was in compliance with the Bagley -Keene and Brown Acts.. The California open meetings laws give citizens the right to attend the meetings of state bodies and the legislative bodies of local agencies, with an exception of closed meetings. California law does not limit access to meetings to a specific category of people or a profession, such as "the traditional press." Anyone may attend a meeting that falls under the requirements of the Bagley -Keene Act and the Brown Act. California open meetings laws require covered government bodies to post notice of their regular meetings in a up blicly accessible place and to mail notice to those persons who have specifically requested notice. State bodies covered by the Bagley -Keene Act must post notice of their meetings on the Internet at least 10 days beforehand. They must also mail notice to anyone who has requested notice in writing. The notice must give you the time, date, location of the meeting, and the name, address, and phone number of a person who can provide further information before the meeting. Notices also must contain a specific agenda for the meeting, including a brief description of items to be discussed. Ms McIntosh, I did not receive any notification of the meeting planned for 4/22/20 despite writing a letter to the Planning Commission expressing my disapproval of the construction project. In fact, a neighbor informed me of the meeting just prior to the call to order on 4/22/20. Our neighbors have been asked to comply with social distancing and to remain at home. The city of Rancho Cucamonga should have mailed a notice to each residence located near the site of the proposed construction site so that our views could be heard. Apparently, many supporters of this church were provided with a timely notice regarding the zoom meeting. Unfortunately, the people most impacted by the construction were not provided with equal and timely notification. I am pleased that the Planning Commission has scheduled another meeting on May 27, 2020 at 7 PM and would like to attend the meeting IN PERSON. As a physician I have many concerns about construction noise, traffic safety and the environmental impact which could impact those of us living just south of this site. Finally, Ms. McIntosh did not address my request for the builder to construct a gate at two sites adjacent to the Church property. Our neighbors have requested that an additional gate be placed on the north end of Horse Thief Lane. At the previous meeting, one of the planning commissioners implied that construction of such a gate would not be needed as a barrier already exists which he assumed would minimize the cross traffic between the church and our properties. Perhaps that commissioner was referring to THIS barrier: North Barrier Between Horse Thief Lane and The Dirt Road This rather flimsy NON -barrier, can be located down the street every time the wind blows more than 20 MPH! The barrier keeps no one out of our property and is a favorite intersection for dirt bikers and off road racers. We MUST INSIST that a gated barrier be placed on this street as a condition for building the church! Otherwise, foot traffic through our property will likely increase when the church is open for business. I respectfully request that this letter be read in its entirety at the Planning Commission meeting scheduled for May 27,2020. 1 also look forward to addressing the construction site concerns expressed by my family and neighbors.
