We received additional comments from Lozeau Drury LLP for the Initial Study/Mitigation Negative Declaration yesterday and because of its complexity, staff and applicant will need more time to evaluate and make a determination to the next step.

Rebecca Davis representing Supporters Alliance for Environmental Responsibility and is requesting the City withdraw the MND due to it may have a significant environmental impact and asking to prepare an EiR for the project. Observed wildlife of at least 50 special status species on site. Also, may have a significant human health risk impact. Requesting Planning Commission to decline and send back to staff to prepare an EIR to address these issues. Michael Morris is the Entitlement Developer for the Scheu Management Corporation; he had originally planned to answer any questions today but due to the letter received yesterday and the project being continued to a future date, we are disappointed about it, but we will deal with it, review the letter and we hope to see you next month. Craig Scheu represented the Scheu family and spoke to his family's history in Rancho Cucamonga and Upland area for 6 generations. He understands the situation but is frustrated due to the timing issue with this project. Commissioner Bryan Dopp mentioned that getting a 120-page letter in 24 hours before a meeting, it's hard to get through the material fast. It does present a lot of difficulties to make a formal decision. Looking forward to discerning the facts and sort out the differences and hoping to get to hear it in January. Chairman Guglielmo asked Attorney Nick Ghirelli, "Early on in the phase, how do you differentiate whether a project needs to be full EIR"?

Pre -Application Review.DRC2019-00896 -. Lewis Management Corporation — A request for a Pre -Application Review of a proposed mixed -use development of 643 for - rent apartments and 12,425 square -feet of commercial floor area on a vacant, 17.1-acre site consisting of six parcels within the Mixed Use Financial, Restaurants, Residential (MFC) District, Terra Vista, Planned Community, located at the northwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and Milliken Avenue; APNs: 1077-422-51, -55, -98, and 799 and 1090-121-38, and -39. David Eoff, Sr. Planner, gave a presentation of the project site (copy on file). He stated tonight we will focus mostly on three-story walk ups but will be able to answer any questions you may have about the four-story wrap building with any concerns or comments. Commissioner Williams asked about the interior of the apartment, is it one long hall with just doors? David Eoff answered yes, essentially, it's a long corridor. Mentioned that Brian Jacobson will discuss further in more detail after presentation. Commissioner Dopp asked about the four-story wrap with the residential units, will some of them be looking out at the parking lot interior? David Eoff replied no, there is a wall. They will not have any windows looking into the parking . structure. There is a corridor separating the structure from the apartments. Mike Smith, Principal Planner, provided some background and contents how we arrived at this particular project and the City's overall vision. Making sure we are providing a diverse housing options for the community. One way is to start looking at mixed -use development. Also, the proximity of this location (Foothill Blvd. and Milliken Ave.) within the City to get people to drive less so all the amenities are close by where they live whether it be a commercial or workplace destination. Expectations by the City is that the wrap building has to be part of this project. It cannot be separated or cannot. be something that happens 20 years down the road or not at all. At some point be built along with this project in the future Page 2 of 8 VGVGIVIL�GR . 1 1 y LV 1 v PLANNING COMMISSION WORKSHOP AGENDA MINUTES RAINS ROOM RANCHO CUCAMONGA CIVIC CENTER 10500 CIVIC CENTER DRIVE RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA so it operates as a unified development. This project will be a contributor to the City's overall vision. Brian Jacobson, Vice President Lewis Mgmt. Corp., introduced his staff before giving his presentation. Addressing points of what they have done with regard to pedestrian safety, realigned and made sure to fill in some of the gaps with crosswalks and adding a wider sidewalk. Also, revised some of the parking, redesigning to add additional parking because they wanted to reduce some of the spaces along interior streets and replace with landscape. Also, changed to angled parking, formerly was per -particular head in parking. Chairman Guglielmo asked if they lost the fitness center? Brian Jacobson replied, at the base of the wrap building, the commercial spaces being too broken up at the Plaza. They significantly revised that. Discussed using a portion of that for the fitness amenity. Serving two purposes; 1) if helps address the challenges on the siding and 2) it also guarantees we will .have activity in that commercial space along Foothill Blvd. with people working out and believe it will help the marketing factor in that space. Also, creating a little plaza area through landscaping elements to again make those entrances into the building more identifiable. They are pleased staff likes the architecture style they landed on. This modern farm, it's around a lot now and very popular especially in mixed -use type settings. With regard to landscaping comments, it has been enhanced. Staff wanted landscaping to feel more urban, more paying, more plaza type feel at the corner. Rick and his team have started exploring ways to do that. They are hitting all of the key amenities that are market and demographic like and expected in a modern community. They intend to have a beautiful roof deck on the top of the four-story wrap building. By mixing the amenities, they are really encouraging folks, regardless which product they are living in, give them opportunity to interact with neighbors. Commissioner Williams asked regarding the parking, will there be breaks or will there be a long street of solid cars? Brian Jacobson replied, about every 4 stalls there is landscape and a tree at the end of it and drive -isle part. Page 3 of 8 PLANNING. COMMISSION WORKSHOP AGENDA MINUTES RAINS ROOM RANCHO CUCAMONGA CIVIC CENTER 10500 CIVIC CENTER DRIVE RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA Commissioner Morales asked about the four-story parking structure. It's open on north side and looks like there's grass. Are you able to fit in cypress trees similar to Victoria Gardens parking structure? Is it possible to fit in for visual? Brian Jacobson replied in the green area that is shown, it's designed that way to keep the parking structure open in such a way it does not have to be mechanically ventilated.- That really achieves two objectives; it's less expensive and less difficult to maintain and it does draw light down into it. Commissioner Morales asked about the plaza area on Foothill Boulevard, is there going to be art work like Route 66 or a monument? Brian Jacobson replied we do have an art requirement. How they are going to meet that has not yet been defined. If that is an important element that the Commissioners would like to see, similar to the Resort where we designed the art pieces and became street furniture, we are certainly open to that. Commissioner Oaxaca asked, was there any consideration of taking the commercial portion and wrapping the corner and bring it up on Milliken at any extent? Brian Jacobson replied the primary concern and challenge is it's just further and further from available parking. It makes the commercial space more attractive. It gives us flexibility when trying to occupy the commercial space. Commissioner Oaxaca stated he can tell that they already have some interface between the walk-up fronts and sidewalks and it would be nice when you are ready to get a more of a ground level or a.3D regiment and what that interface looks like. Brian Jacobson .replied, this edge is from a constructability stand point, it's the most challenging because there is a pretty good grade fall. They will be working more closely to figure out the best way to accommodate that grade change, how to create attractive landscaping slopping and walkways. Once they define that better, they will be able to create sections and give an ideal during the DRC process of what this will look like. Commissioner Dopp thanked the Lewis Homes and team for putting together and taking a lot of time to deliberate about the thought they put into a project like this. Mentioned the roof Page 4 of 8 bag L-VL-IWILJL—I'% ■ 1 Y f.v ■ v PLANNING COMMISSION WORKSHOP AGENDA MINUTES RAINS ROOM RANCHO CUCAMONGA CIVIC CENTER 10500 CIVIC CENTER DRIVE RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA deck can potentially provide that extra element for recreation. Suggested to maybe look at different color palates other than white. Brian Jacobson mentioned that they have a lot of exploration and additional work to do on refining what the buildings will look like. Commissioner Dopp continued stating that he is concerned -with the scope of this size about traffic pattern, not walkability but vehicles from a peek standpoint you may have too many people leaving the parking unit at the same time with 650 units that maybe 800 different cars leaving this project at some point, you might end up with an issue. Brian Jacobson stated they will be doing a significant analysis on all sorts of issues, as this gets further along. Traffic is a big concern. They will do an extensive analysis on the traffic related issues. Mentioned the parking garage has two exits and entrees which will facilitate during high traffic time. Randall Lewis added, they are getting a lot of healthcare workers. People working swing/ night shift and with all of their projects, they encourage homebased businesses and telecommuters. Commissioner Dopp lastly regarding the interior walkway for a lot of these units, he encourages maybe turn a least a couple of units where you have the doors facing the walkway/ exterior'on Church Street facing the North or main three block facing the South to allow extra opportunities for interaction and people to get out rather than being confined to an open space. Commissioner Williams asked about accommodation for handicap accessibility? Brian Jacobson answered that all the ground floor units on the three story walk up/ground buildings are required to be accessible to their.front door and are elevator served. Commissioner Williams stated she is pleased to know they have smaller units for lower rent and asked what is the average unit size? Brian Jacobson answered, the overall average unit size on both product types are 792 sq. ft. Studios range 513 — 600 sq. ft. The average in the ground walk up building is 715 sq. ft.

PLANNING COMMISSION WORKSHOP AGENDA MINUTES RAINS ROOM RANCHO CUCAMONGA CIVIC CENTER 10500 CIVIC CENTER DRIVE RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA Chairman Guglielmo stated this is a completely different layout and believes they went the extra mile to cater to the new plan of the City. The new innovation and urban style living. Commented they listened to the City and made a ton of great additions and modifications. Asked the question about the front entry/ loop area if it will that be a dedicated uber lift type pickup area? If so, he likes the idea. Brian Jacobson answered they have not defined the ride/pickup location yet but stated they do incorporate those in all their communities now. Commissioner Williams stated that regarding the Senior's and subsidized. housing. Commented that something like this looks like a fun place to live and they can accommodate nicely and she likes the idea of having smaller units. As a recap Mike Smith, Principal Planner summarized the comments for the purpose of staff to work with the applicants, so we all are hearing the same thing: • General consensus.- Commissioners are all fine with the Architecture • Concern was the color white — look into something different • Applicants alone - come back to PC slightly refined • . Parking/ traffic will all be analyzed • Integration of the Arts — Route 66 - Randall Lewis asked, does it have to be Rt. 66? Commissioners said no. Chairman Guglielmo mentioned to give them more leeway on choosing their own style. Randall Lewis stated they have a brand but just don't know what it is yet. Something that will speak to customers and what they will relate to. Stated that the City might be ready for something new. F.

Tony Locacciato, Meridian Consulting, stated that the CEQA analysis evaluated the flood, performance and maintenance data of those basins provided by the County and determined that they are quite adequate to handle flood debris. Chairman Guglielmo asked about the expansion of the retail uses in the commercial area, specifically medical uses in the upstairs units only.

Multiple, workshops in multiple parts of the city, social media, electronic and in person. The City tried to bring a broad and wide balanced perspective to the Commission for consideration. The City reached out to land owners in the rural area, as well. Fiscal responsibility — Focus is on the financial burden on the. City. For example; fire, police, and public services. Low property tax city, retail needed to supplement funds needed to support civic services. Conservation land — How long? Designed to be set up forever, provides for an endowment for lands to be managed in perpetuity. Architectural styles - Craftsman, Spanish, Mid Century and Ranch, similar to surrounding areas. Traffic - Thoroughly detailed in the EIR, found that adding another east -west road north of the 210 will help alleviate pressure on Banyan. Plan anticipates another new K-8 school on Wilson to divert traffic from Banyan. Plan should have been open space. Considered this in great detail. Cost was estimated at over $100.million. There is no revenue stream available to fund. Balance community vision, property rights and fiscal responsibility. Water supply assessment was provided by CVWD and found adequate water supplies, conservation is mandated by the State. Commissioner Oaxaca commented on Flood Control and is hoping to see in the documents in response to comments. Reference to documents from various regulatory agencies related to flood control—. gap for him — unable to square historical documents with justifications in the final EIR. What is the relevance of the historical documents? Are they wrong? Out of date? Improvements made over the year changed factors? Would have liked a side -by -side comparison of historical documents and FEIR conclusions. Similar concerns with fire danger. If historical documents are relevant, how are they being addressed?

CHAMBERS 10500 CIVIC ,CENTER DRIVE RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA41FORNIA Mr. Burris responded to help in navigating documents — 2003 Grand Prix Fire — able to take bad fire and water storm and test the flood control facilities. Basins are not dams, not intended to hold water., Intended to contain debris and to keep it out of channels. Help to understand that the levy has been certified by FEMA. Is a diversion mechanism to help direct flows into the channel; Systems has been tested many times over. Staff visited the site many times during and after significant rain storm to understand how the infrastructure worked during and after a rain storm.

Mr. Locacciato explained some of the changes made to the areas by the Army Corps of Engineers and Flood Control Channel. Commissioner Oaxaca asked about the role of the property owners in the LAFCO decision making process. Mr. Ghirelli and Mr. Burris provided a brief explanation of the LAFCO process and after LAFCO approved an annexation, with an ability for protest vote. Commissioner Wimberly asked about outreach with property owners within the conservation area and if enough outreach has been done.

Agrees that adding another east -west access may help alleviate traffic along Banyan and Vintage. is happy to see buffers with the adjacent residential community. Wonders if the TDR option ;will work. Understands the need for commercial uses. Recognizes that while half acre homes are nice, we must think of the long term and the cost and availability of housing for the next generations. The City has done their best to make a plan that, is the most palatable to most residents. Commissioner Oaxaca thanked staff and the team for the efforts to date to develop the plan and reach out to the community and listen to that input. Notes two points from public: 1. Apply local control; 2. Maximize the area that can be conserved. Conservation takes resources to prevent the area from deteriorating. This plan allows us to create the resources to make the conservation happen. Commissioner Oaxaca recognized the traffic concerns brought up by the public. Feels that the completion of Wilson Avenue will help. The goal is to bring the best possible plan to meet the most needs of those who have a current and future stake in Rancho Cucamonga.

The location of the project site is south of 6th Street and west of The Resort Parkway; APN: 0210-102-08 through -10. Vincent Acuna, Associate Planner, gave the staff report and presentation starting with a .review the vision of the Empire Lakes Specific Plan as a walkable mixed -use community within biking/walking distance to job centers and. transit. He also discussed the importance of street connections, building plotting, architecture and floor plans, and parking, and how each of these items collectively contribute to achieving the Specific Plan's vision. (PowerPoint on file). The Commissioners appreciated the good report. Mr. Brian" Jacobson, with Lewis Development Corp., stated that they believe their proposal is consistent with the vision of the Specific Plan, and were excited to present the project. They wanted to focus on delivering on the Specific Plan's vision by proposing an open community that is connected and complimentary with the surrounding development. He presented a broad range of building types with variety in both the exterior elevations and floor plans. He stated that the project will be all rentals with a separate 16, 000 sq. ft. lease and rental facility with a large gym and amenities offered. Mr. Scott, the architect with Lewis Development, explained in more detail the applicant's intent for their landscape plan. He stated that the Lewis Group's vision for the next generation developments is for residents to engage and interact in many ways with each other. This is reflected in the pedestrian emphasis of the landscaping design and the number of paseos that connect multiple neighborhoods within The. Resort. Mr. Randall Lewis, with Lewis Development, stated this is, the largest project they have ever done. They have put a lot of thought into the placement of all of the buildings. He added that the project is,unique from all the previous projects they've done in Rancho Cucamonga. He commented that Mr Acuna did an excellent job. Chairman Guglielmo thanked staff and the Lewis Group. He commented that he thought the project was extremely well thought out for future residents coming into the Page 2 of 5 P%Uuua l 1 -r9 L.V l u PLANNING COMMISSION WORKSHOP MINUTES RAINS ROOM RANCHO CUCAMONGA CIVIC CENTER 10500 CIVIC CENTER DRIVE RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA community. He liked that the streetscape appears to be easy to navigate as a result of the proposed grid pattern and small blocks. Commissioner Dopp asked about how the 1000-foot, long interior street parallel to the Resort Parkway could be .shortened to break up what seemingly was a long walk for residents. Mr. Jacobson stated that the Parkway is designed with unique table top cross walks and art installations in the parklets that will help break up the length of the street. He offered some solutions that could tie-in the tabletop crossings on Resort Parkway with the parallel interior street and alley through the use of landscape and minor building plotting changes. Commissioner Dopp, agreed with the idea and asked the applicant to continue working with staff to develop a solution. Mr. Acuna discussed the importance of window and door placement from the sidewalk in creating a safe vibrant public realm and explained a couple of best practices. Mr. Burris pointed out that there are a large number of options for achieving a vibrant public realm," and that the Planning Commission has the latitude to explore other architectural options to activate the public realm. , Mr. Mike Smith stated that working with Mr. Jacobson and Lewis members on the project layout was the key to try and create what future residents would enjoy through the creation of a walkable neighborhood with different architectural styles. Mr Jacobson appreciated the comments of the Commissioners and wanted to know if there were any other thoughts for improvement.

The applicant, Greg Lord, with Lord Constructors, and the current land owner and developer, spoke to the Commission. He thanked staff and noted the agreements in the conditions were acceptable but requested t 6 in lieu fees for the undergrounding, which was more affordable for this project.

Steve Sullivan addressed the Commission in support of the project. Brad Buller, representing the applicant, spoke on the issue of undergrounding the utilities.

Vince Acuna, Associate Planner, gave the staff report and PowerPoint presentation (copy on file). Chairman Guglielmo asked what the reason for the design change was since they had such a recent project approval. Mr. Acuna stated that it was due to the increase from 92 to 97 units. Applicant Doug Pancake stated that the project had a recent approval but due to fine turfing by the future operator, there was an adjustment to add additional units and to become a more efficient project. Generous parking that exceeds the city standards would still be provided.

Mr. Pancake stated that there would be no changes to increase lighting. Chairman Guglielmo opened the public hearing.

Mr. Acuna stated that the parking does exceed the parking required by the City. A parking study has been provided and it does meet the requirements. Since they are targeted for those 65 years of age or older there will be enough parking for them and for visitors and staff. Mr. Ghirelli noted that the Council just passed an ordinance regarding parking districts throughout the city. Commissioner Munoz noted that this special facility for senior care doesn't normally add additional parking issues. Mr. Pancake, the applicant, returned and stated that it was targeted for people 65 years of age but caters to someone that averages 83 years of age. He stated that visitors and staff will take parking spaces, but that the reality is not many residents will use them. Commissioner Dopp asked about the employee and guest parking. Mr. Pancake noted that during holidays it might be busy and possible valet parking could be used but that the operators, Cadence, would review that. Commissioner Munoz noted that the senior living facility satisfies our State goals forhousing in the city. Rosa Ascencio came back to speak to the Commission and added a personal story regarding additional parking and using the street. Chairman Guglielmo stated that the applicant has taken steps to meet the parking requirements and the possible additional requirements during holidays and will discuss options when the new operators take over. Mr. Ghirelli stated there can be parking districts established that are required to be approved by Council. Commissioner Munoz stated that would only be if a problem arises and is required.

PLANNING ,COM.MISSIQN. INTER -AGENCY UPDATES: Commissioner Munoz gave an update from League of California Cities regarding continued discussion about Governor Newsome's goal to build more housing. The League sees it as increased State oversight and control of local governments. A primary concern is the State's ability to take transportation funds from the City if housing production is lower than regional housing requirements. Commissioner Oaxaca commented that cities don't build, developers build. Commissioner Munoz agreed and said that cities can't compel developers to build a certain number of housing and said he anticipates continued conversation in Sacramento regarding this issue. He wants the residents to be aware that the State can take away the City's ability to condition projects. There are -numerous proposed Bills that could potentially prohibit the City from controlling development.

These include the authority to start the process of historical designation over owner objection per the Historical Preservation ordinance and ensuring projects are consistent with the historic integrity of the property through the Minor Development review process, and asking applicants to do a cultural resource analysis, Additionally, Ms. Burnett clarified the letter is first an acknowledgement that the properly is historic, and they could be required to take additional steps if, in the future, significant changes were to be made to the project site. Nick Ghirelli, Assistant City Attorney, clarified that the letter is not a contract and a future land use application on the properly would go through the CEQA process requiring a cultural analysis be completed.
