(Continued from December 17, 1991) BACKGROUND: On December 5, 1991, the Design Review Committee recommended approval of the proposed architectural modifications. The Committee also suggested that the applicant explore the possibility of including single story homes in the tract to meet alternative housing needs and to break-up the massing of the streetscape. On December 17, 1991, the Planning Commission continued this item at the request of the applicant to allow more time to address Design Review Committee's question about a single-story plan- The applicant has reviewed the matter and does not believe that there is a market for a single-story plan in the tract. However, he will be available to respond to this issue at the January 8, 1992, meeting. Attached for your consideration is the staff report and Resolution for the time extension- RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve a one-year Time Extension for the Design Review for Tract 13280 through adoption of the attached Resolution.

Related Files: Minor Exceptions 89-21 and 90-02- BACKGROUND: Tentative Tract 13280 was approved by the Planning Co~-~_ission on December 9, 1987, and has since been recorded- The Design Review for the Tract was approved on December 13, 1989, for a period of two years, as allowed by the Development Code- Extensions may be granted in 12-month increments for up to 36 months from the original approval date. ANALYSIS: A. General: Tract 13280 is located in the Vineyards South portion of the Victoria Planned Community- It consists of 145 lots which range in size from 4,000 to 9,000 square feet. The average lot size is 5,165 square feet and typical lot dimensions are 45 by 90 feet- Required property line setbacks are 5 feet on the sides, 20 feet in front, and 15 feet in the rear. The approved design review consists of five floor plans, each having four different elevations. Additionally, enhanced elevations will be provided on all of the lots which side-on to a trail or street- This occurs on 25 percent of the lots. The smallest floor plan size is 2,212 square feet, while the largest is 2,628 square feet, excluding the garages, which are approximately 550 square feet each. B. Development Standards: The development standards which apply to this project have not changed since it was approved. Although current development standards require a combined 15-foot side yard setback, the design review was approved with 5-foot sldeyards because the tract, approved prior to the revised standards, was designed and approved for a unit prototype utilizing 5-foot setbacks- PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT TE FOR Tf 13280 - LUSK COMPANY December 11, 199 1 Page 2 C- Architectural Modifications: The applicant has proposed a number of architectural modifications to the elevations- The changes will be reviewed by the Design Review Committee on December 5, 1991. FACTS FOR FINDINGS: The Commission must make all of the following findings in order to approve this application: A. There have been no significant changes in the Land Use Element of the General Plan, Development Code, or character of the area within which the project is located that would cause the approved project to become inconsistent or non-conforming. B. The granting of an extension would not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity.

PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. TT 13280 - LUSK COMPANY January 8, 1992 Page 2 APPROVED AND ADOPTED THIS 8TH DAY OF JANUARY 1992. PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA BY: Larry T. McNiel, Chairman ATTEST: Brad Bullet, Secretary I, Brad Buller, Secretary of the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, do hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was duly and regularly introduced, passed, and adopted by the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, at a regular meeting of the Planning Commission held on the 8th day of January 1992, by the following vote-to-wit: AYES: COMMISSIONERS: NOES: COMMISSIONERS: ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA STAFF REPORT DATE: January 8, 1992 TO.- Chairman and Members of the Planning Commission FROM: Brad Bullet, City Planner BY: Steve Hayes, Associate Planner SUBJECT: TIME EXTENSION FOR THE DESIG~ REVIEW FOR TRACT 10035 - PACIFIC FIRST BANK - A request for a time extension of the design review of building elevations and detailed site plan for Lot s 1 through 21 of a previous ly approved tract consisting of 38 single family lots on 15.7 acres of land in the Low Residential District (2-4 dwelling units per acre), located south and east of Red Hill Country Club Drive, south of Calls Corazon - APN: 207-631-01 through 11 and 207-641-01 through 10. Related file= Variance 89-12. BACkgROUND: Tentative Tract 10035 was approved by the Planning Commission March 25, 1981. At a subsequent hearing for the time extension of the Tentative Map, the Commission was concerned with the appropriateness of the project design relative to the sha~e and topography of the site. The Commission recognized Red Hill as a landform having city-wide significance and projects shall be designed to minimize alteration to this natural landform, according to the General Plan and Development Code. The Commission was concerned that the proposed design of the subdivision was more condusive to a standard "flat land" subdivision rather than the development being designed to fit the hillside nature of the property. Another. concern was the severity of the slopel extensive cut and fill of the site might subject the area to potential slope failure. At that time, the applicant assured the Commission that the intent of the subdivision was for custom homes sensitively designed to the physical constraints of the site. As a method to ensure sensitive development of the site, the Co~nission conditioned that any proposal of the development of the tract would be subject to Design Review approval. Since that time, the Planning Commission has approved the site plans and building elevations for all the lots within this tract. Lots 36, 37, and 38 were approved by the Planning Commission on May 28, 1986 and the remaining 35 lots were approved by the Planning co~ission on January 28, 1987. Subsequently, the property on the south side of Camino Predera (Lots 1 through 21) was sold and a new applicant received Design Review approval for a new site plan and building elevations on January 24, 1990. The proposed time extension would grant the current owner an addiZional year (to January 24, 1993) to obtain approval of the ITEM B PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DR 10035 - PACIFIC FIRST BANK January 8, 1992 Page 2 detailed construction drawings for the previously approved residences for Lots 1 through 21. The Development Code Section 17.02.100 allows three possible time extensions in twelve month increments not to exceed a total of five years from the original date of approval for all projects approved by the Planning Co-~ission. ANALYSIS: Staff has analyzed the proposed time extension request and has compared the proposal with the current development criteria as outlined in the Development Code. Of particular concern in staff's analysis is the issue of conformance with the current Hillside Development Standards- At the time this Design Review was approved, the City had not yet adopted its Hillside Regulations; hence, the project was not subject to specific technical requirements within the current Hillside Ordinance. However, the applicant made every effort to design the residences to meet the purpose and intent of the Hillside Ordinance. Specifically, units were designed to use interior walls as retaining walls in order to minimize the grading necessary on each lot and "inverted plans" (i.e-, living area on top floors and bedrooms below) were proposed to take further advantage of viewshed opportunities- Finally, garages were given a "floating" designation in order to minimize the obtrusiveness in the streetscape and to reduce the blockage of views to the valley floor below (refer to Exhibit In conjunction with the Design Review request, the applicant also obtained approval of a variance to allow reduced front yard setbacks on 8 of the 21 lots, an overall reduction of the required minimum average front setback for all lots, an extension above the required height limits on 3 lots, and a reduced accessory structure setback on 1 lot for the general purposes of reducing the apparent height of structures and opening viewsheds to the lower elevations (refer to Exhibit "M"). To summarize, staff has determined that the project still meets the · basic standards for development in the Low Residential District and the general purposes and intent of the Hillside Development Ordinance- Therefore, this project still remains consistent with all code requirements of the City. FACTS FOR FINDINGS: The Planning Commission must make the following findings in order to approve this application: A. There have been no significant changes in the land use element of the General Plan or Development Code or character of the area in which this project is located that would cause the approved project to become inconsistent or non-conforming- B. The granting of an extention would not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements of the vicinity.

Indeed, much of the adaptive design features are taken from the vocabulary of custom homes and are rarely found production housing. The attached project description and plans discuss and illustrate the extreme variety of site conditions found among the 21 lots. Host critical of all site features is the very steep drop in elevation in the 25' front setback experienced by half the lots. In these cases, a 50~ slope condition exists which makes it impossible to meet both setback and height restrictions. Our analysis indicate the following lots require variances in order to be properly developed. Lot 2: Reduce front setback to allow side entry garage. Lot 3: Permit exception to height limit. Allow 10' front setback. Lots 4, 5, 6, 9, 14 & 15: Permit exception to height limit. Allow 5' front setback. Lots 7 & 8: Allow 5' front setback. These lots are 10 of the I1 that exhibit the steep drop off from the street. In addition, several of these lots have narrow frontage (Lots 2 through 7), which forces the house further back on the lot which exacerbates the height problem. Several of these lots i2, 3 and 14) also exhibit severe cross slope conditions which also intensifies the height problems. Every effort has been made to adapt the architecture to the hillside each of these lots. The minimum split from garage to entry level is the maxlmum ls 9' On Lot 2, a detached side entry garage has been employed to further reduce the street impact of garages and place the residence on the most appropriate portion of the lot. Even when a 5' setback is requested, the residence is much further back and drops down the hill from 5' to 9' The City Engineer has expressed support for the 5' setback as opposed to a 10' setback which is felt would encourage apron parking with the resulting blockage of the public sidewalk. Only on Lot 3 have we used a 10' setback. There the severe cross slope requires a minimum of 10' to warp the driveway apron. At a 20' setback, the floor of the garage wou2d be 25' out of grade. The 10' setback is necessary to alleviate the lslmcte of the cross slope and the extremely steep do~nslope (60X in the setback area). Placing the garages ~nd residences 25t b~ck (or more with a~5"~'vmriation in setback) wall result in either a much greater split from garage to entry which wall make the homes unmarketable or they wall rise much further out of grade at the rear with the resulting skirt walls .becoming objectionable. SUNNARY The severity of the downhill elope conditions on the subject combined with different lot geometries (frontages vary from 62' to 80') and cross slope conditions all create the required findings for the granting of a variance. None of the resulting plottinge will be objectionable, none will create a nuisance and all will be compatible with both other lots in this development as well as with adjacent properties. Without the granting of the variances, these lots beome virtually undevelopable. TBB ARBORS ON REDHILL PROJECT D~SCRIPTION THE SITE The site Is a series of 21 lots of record zoned "L" (Low Residential DIstrict) wlth a minimum lot area of 7,200 s.f. and a maxlmum density of 4 du/ac. There are no corner lots, flag lots or other restricted access lot configurations. The 21 lots are all hillside lots In a downhill setting with extraordinary offsite view capture possibilities. The 21 lots are part of a larger 38 lot subdivision which has been partially developed by various other entitles. The remaining 17 lots are all uphill lots on the north side of Camins Predate and are not a part of this development proposal. The site is a generally south facing slope of Redhill stretching for 1,600' along the south side of Cumlno Predera. All 21 lots front Camins Predate and are contiguous to one another. Lot 1 is the highest and most westerly at elevation 1,365 with lot 21 being the lowest and most easterly at elevation 1,274. Perhaps the most noteworthy feature of the site is the extreme variation in individual lot characteristics. In order to ~ully understand The planning and design parameters inherent in the diversity of characteristics we conducted several overall as well aS individual site analyses. The results are summarized below: A. Individual sites vary in frontage width from a minimum of 62' to a maximum of 109' 10 lots are approximately 60' wide and another 6 are approximately 65' wide. B. Eleven lots drop 12' or more within the first 25' (which is also the approximate front setback line). This represents a 50X slope condition on half the lots. C. 13 lots have more than 70~ of their site area in slopes 20~ or greater. Two more lots meet this criteria if shallow areas near the lowest part of the lot are discounted due to Inaccessibility from the street. D. Lots 1, 2, 3, 13 and 14 also exhibit moderate to severe cross slope conditions ranging from 9~ to 26~. R. Four lots (10, 11, 12 and 13) are Impacted by a knoll that was left Intact during the tract grading process which rises as much as 9' above curb grade Just inside the front property line of the subject lots. Access to each lot will always be located on the lower side of the knoll but some grading is inevitable. To .the extent possible, the shape of the knoll will be left intact or ragFaded to appear natural. F. The site An general enjoys extraordinary view capture potential, particularly from the upper portion of each lot. The lower one drops on the lots, the closer one gets to adverse conditions presented by the adjacent service road and railroad. Additionally, adjacent and on-site trees block view capture on the lower portion of some lots. SUN~ARY The 21 lots exhibit extreme diversity in their combination of specific attributes in these categories: (1) Lot frontage (2) Cross slope (3) Extremely steep setbacks (4) Lot area devoted to 20~ or greater elopee (5) Land form diversity (knolls, cross slope, undulations, plateaus) The result is the necessity to view each lot as a distinct site and locate the home accordingly, t.e., each lot is custom designed to receive the house designed for THE PRODUCT Early in the design process several critical decisions were made based upon the site analysis and marketing criteria. First, three plans were determined to meet both market demand and site conditions. Second, the unit plans were each specified as "inverted plans" with living areas on the upper level and bedrooms below. This provides easiest access from the garage to living levels, assures generous volume ceilings in living areas and maximizes view capture opportunities. Third, garage to living level elevation changes were to be designed to accommodate a variety of topographic conditions and not to exceed 8' Plan I has a 6.5' split from garage down to the entry. Plan 2 has a detached garage which can Mfloat" with topo changes. Plan 3 has an attached garage that has seven split conditions from 1.5' to 9' In addition to providing for topographically adaptable designs, garages have been turned 90 degrees to the street where possible which provides minimum visual impact, adds apron parking area and creates architectural variety. Plotting has taken place to respect the topography by canring the dwelling with respect to the street and placing it parallel to the natural contours. On a number of lots the topography te so steep that front setbacks were reduced to 5' to keep the garage and dwelling as close to natural grade as possible. There are conditions where the dwelling sits at grade on the uphill side and is several feet out of grade at the rear or downhill side. Variances are required for this reduction in front setbacks and requests for such accompany this application. Lot 3 exhibits such a severe combination of cross slope and very steep downslope conditions that a 10' setback has been utilized.. Helght ltmlts are also challenged by the steepest lots where even with a 5' setback the garage cannot be constructed wlthout violating the 35' limit. For these lots a variance is also requested. UNIT DESIGNS The three unit plans are all designed for the move-up market of mature families who can make use of well zoned interior space, ample private outdoor living area, oversized two and three car garages, formal living and dining rooms complemented by large kitchens with nooks and family rooms. Virtually every living area of each home, including bedrooms are view oriented, a design criteria which resulted in wide, shallow footprints that stretch across each lot parallel with the natural contours. PLAN 1 (plotted on 4 lots) 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath, formal living/dining° island kitchen, nook and family room. 2,548 s.f. living area, 759 s.f. decks (additional patio areas provided as site conditions allow), attached garage (6 1/2' downhill split).

Site Characteristics: The site is vacant and slopes gently from north to south. II. ANALYSIS: The purpose of this Parcel Map is to create a single parcel for the development of a gas station, mini-market and car wash. Approval of the Tentative Parcel Map is dependent upon approval of CUP 91-20 which is also on tonight's agenda. Both the CUP and the Parcel Map were discussed at the Planning Commission meeting of October 9, 1991. As a result of the discussion, the developer has expanded the site southerly to incorporate the driveway and landscape areas within the gas station parcel. There are two other issues remaining: 1. Offsite Rochester Avenue Street Improvements - Staff is requiring that the project construct the west half of Rochester Avenue from Base Line Road to Church Street (the east half exists)· This requirement is consistent with the attached Tetra Vista Planned tree Community S t Improvement Implementation Pol icy, which was approved by the City Council on September 6, 1989. Because the P1 ann ng Commi ssi policy was approved by the City Council, the i on can not modify its requirements. However you can reconmnend exceptions to the COuncil for their constderati'on if the applicant appeal s the requirement. The applicant asserts that the policy was tntented for larger projects and not a small gas station site. Staff does not recall any discussion about limiting improvement requirements based upon small project size during the formulation and approval of the pol icy. 2 Offsite Storm Drain Itm~rovements - Similar to the preceding issue, · 1 off-s e drainage staff is requiring at the"'proJect tnstal it improvements in accordance with Tetra Vista Planned Conmnunity Drainage Improvement Implementation Policy (copy attached) which was al so approved by the City Council on September 6, 1989. III. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The applicant completed Part I of the Initial Study. Staff conducted a field investigation and completed Part II of the Initial Study. No adverse impacts upon the environment are anticipated as a result of this project. Therefore, issuance of Negative Declaration is appropriate· IV. CORRESPONDENCE: Notices of Publtc Hearing have been sent to surrounding property owners and placed in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin. Posting at the site has also been completed. V. RECONNENDATION: It is reconmnended that the Planning Conmnission consider all input and elements of the Tentative Parcel Hap 13987 and 'related file CUP 91-20. If after such consideration, the C~mission can rec~mnend approval, then the adoption of the attached Resolution and issuance of a Negative Declaration would be appropriate.

Recently we were informed by Shell tha~ ~he Conditions of Approval for its proposed service s~ation include significan~ offsite improvements- An inves~iga~ion revealed tha~ the basis for ~hose conditions is the Tetra Vista S=ree~ and Drainage Improvement Implementation Policy adopted in September, 1989 (i.e., the "Polic~"). . On July 10, 1991, we met wi~h staff and the Shell rep~esentative, Ms. Kathy Lucian, to discuss the intent of ~he Policy and address its application to a one-acre commercial project. S~affs' initial reaction was that the Policy should be applied to any development. We disagree and request that the City consider the original in=ant and obJec~cive of~hePolicT, i. e., to provide necessar~ ~raffic and drainage mitigation in the contex~ of large residen~ial developments. Those considerations do not apply to this one-acre commercial development: 1. ~/~ Staff has acknowledged that the drainage impact associated with this development is not of the magnitude that was contemplated by ~he Policy. We understand and agree that there are minor drainage considerations which will be addressed. However, ~he installation of ~he entire storm drain system from Base Line to Foo~/1ill or the development of a retention facility'to accommodate hundreds of acres is appropriate. 2. Street ImerovSmen~s: We understand the intent of the Policy. Specifically, we notethat=he line between Area #6 and Area #7 (see attached graphic) was drawn so ~hat a "Project" at the corner of Base Line and Rochester. Mr. Wm. Joe O'Sell July 18, 1991 Page 2 would trigger the construction of appropriate segments However, we submi~ =ha~ ~he Policy was es~ablished wi~h a large residential proJec= in mind. This is evidenced by the underlying land use designa~ion (i.e., (medium-densi=Y)) shown on ~he graphio- The possibili~y of a one-acre gas s~a~ion developmen=--wi~h no significan= traffic impact on ~he Area e6 segment of Rochester Avenue--was not contemplated- ConsequentlY, we request that ~he site be considered be within Area #7, (see attached graphic) which' requires ~he completion of all Base Line Road Improvements~ provided ~hat appropriate impr~vements, including transitions, would be made at ~he adjacent Rochester frontage- Perhaps a favorable administrative interpretation of~he Policy would suffice for bo~h ~he drainage and street improvement issues. Staff indicated ~hat taxe street improvement issue would be more problematic in this regard. Therefore, we respectfully request · review by City Council of the proposed modifications ~o t/le PclicT- We defer ~o you to · identify ~he scope of ~hat review. we sincerely apprecia~e your assistance- very ~ruly yours, Jo ph Vice President Senior Pro~ec~ Manager JMO: ksk cc: Ms. Ma~hy Lucian, Shell 0il Rick Mager, Lewis Ken Cotban, Lewis Homes Don Thompson, Lewis H~ses Mike Lasley, Lewis Homes RESOLUTION NO.

PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: A. Action Requested by Applicant: Approval of a variance to construct a solid 6-foot block wall within the required front yard setback. B. Surroundin~ Land Use and Zoning: North - Single family residential; Low Residential District (2-4 dwelling units per acre) South - Single family residential; Low Residential District (2-4 dwelling units per acre) East - Single family residential; Low Medium Residential District (4-8 dwelling units per acre) West - Single family residential; Low Residential District (2-4 dwelling units per acre) C. General Plan Designations: Project Site - Low Medium Residential North - Low Residential South - Low Residential East - Low Medium Residential West - Low Residential D. Site Characteristics: The site is a former model home sales parking lot for Tract 12952, by Glenfed Development- A large asphalt parking area remains in the center portion of the site. A number of mature trees exist on the property, primarily along the west property line. Also, a decorative wrought iron fence with pilasters exists along the north and east property lines- The site is void of any structures and slopes gently from north to south at roughly 2 percent. ITEM H PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT VAR 91-12 - SOUTHWEST DESIGN GROUP, LTD. January 8, 1992 Page 2 BACKGROUND: This lot was previously utilized as a model home sales parking lot for Tract 12952 during the construction of that project. Following completion of the tract, this lot was sold for the purposes of developing a custom residence on the lot. During the processing of Tract 12952, staff required that a conceptual master plan for future development of this lot be provided to ensure that a logical development concept could occur (see Exhibit "D"). The house layout and driveway location proposed by this applicant is essentially the same as the conceptual master plan reviewed with Tract 12952. However, it appears that the wall situation for this lot was not addressed at that time, hence, the need for a variance request- Building permits for the custom residence have not been issued as of this writing but are expected to be issued in January 1992. ANALYSIS: A. General: As part of the overall development plan for this site, the applicant intends to remove the existing wrought iron fence and construct a solid 6-foot decorative block wall along the 19th Street and Inyo Place frontages. The variance is only needed for the portion of wall in its proposed location, along the 19th Street frontage, which is an average of 17 feet from the face of the 19th Street curb, instead of the required minimum of 27 feet- The applicant contends, and staff agrees, that the variance is justified for two reasons: 1. The Driveway Policies of the Engineering Division would not allow an additional driveway approach along this front property line (19th Street); and 2. That granting the variance would allow a logical continuation of the wall and landscape treatment already established along 19th Street. For the record, the wall is proposed to wrap around the Inyo Place frontage and return to the residence- The average wall setback along Inyo Place is 23 feet, 6 inches from the face of curb, which meets the minimum corner side wall setback established by the Development Code- B. Technical Background: The Development Code Section 17.02.140 states that a front lot line is "a lot line paralleling the street on a corner lot. The shorter lot line abutting a street or the line designated as the front lot line by subdivision or parcel map." Since the 19th Street frontage is shorter than the Inyo Place frontage, and the final map for Tract 12952 did not designate otherwise, the 19th Street lot line is considered the front lot PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT VAR 91-12 - SOUTHWEST DESIGN GROUP, LTD. January 8, 1992 Page 3 line. Therefore, structures, walls in excess of 3 feet in height or landscaping that blocks views for safe ingress/egress, cannot be located in a required front yard area, per Section 17.08.060-J1 of the Development Code- In the Low Medium Residential District, the minimum front yard setback in which structures, including 6-foot solid walls, could be constructed is 27 feet from the face of curb- Again, the current site plan ( see Exhibit "E" ) shows the wall at the minimum of 12 feet from the face of the 19th Street curb (at the northwest corner of the site) transitioning back to 17 feet for a majority of the 19th Street frontage. The proposed wall transition allows for a 5-foot landscape area behind the sidewalk. C · Compatibility Issues: In reviewing the proposed variance, the issue of compatibility of the 19th Street streetscape treatment should be an important consideration- Currently, a precision block wall that lacks any offsets or architectural enhancement exists along the back of the idewalk for the length of the project west of the site. The balance of the adjacent 19th Street frontage was improved as part of Tract 12952, including a slumpstone block wall with pilasters, decorative cap, wall offsets, and corner transitions for landscaping between the back of the sidewalk and the wall- The lots to the east of the subject property back-up to Inyo Place; hence, a slumpstone block wall faces the subject property- Given that a majority of the 19th Street/Inyo Place intersection area includes the upgraded treatment provided with Tract 12952, staff advised the applicant to design the wall with consistent treatments, offsets, and a landscape palette similar to that provided by the developer of Tract 12952, while providing a logical transition with the older precision block wall to the west- The current site plan, (see Exhibit "E" ) indicates the proposed wall location only; conditions to ensure consistent wall treatments and landscape palette are included within the attached Resolution of Approval. In staffs opinion, the current proposal with the attached condition will provide a logical continuation of the streetscape along 19th Street. FACTS FOR FINDINGS: In order to approve the proposed Variance, the Planning Commission must determine facts to support the following findings. Any findings in the negative would preclude approval of the Variance request: A. That strict or literal interpretation enforcement of the specified regulation would result in practical difficulty or unncessary physical hardship inconsistent with the' objectives of this code- B. That exceptional or extraordinary circumstances or conditions applicable to the property involved, or to the intended use of the property~ do not apply generally to other properties in the same zone · PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT VAR 91-12 - SOUTHWEST DESIGN GROUP, LTD. January 8, 1992 Page 4 C. That strict or literal interpretation or enforcement of the specified regulation would deprive the applicant of privileges enjoyed by the owners of other properties in the same zone. D- That the granting of the variance will not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the limitations on other properties classified in the same zone- E- That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity.

General: The intent of this Master Plan is to serve as a guideline for future development through establishing driveway access, overall circulation system, drainage patterns, and architectural design concepts- The applicant is proposing a 52-acre industrial master plan to be subdivided into 22 lots for general industrial, office (see related file CUP 91-26), and business support service uses- Parking has been provided on each parcel for the intended uses and conceptual treatment of all plaza areas within the project have been identified on the conceptual landscape plans- The development of Phase I of the project, as part of this review, encompasses the development of 7 of the 30 proposed buildings. All public infrastructure and perimeter landscaping shall be provided with Phase I for the project, per the recommended conditions of approval- The site is identified in the Industrial Specific Plan as a proposed rail service site with spur lines along its eastern and southern boundary lines. Due to grading and topographic conditions along the east boundary of the site, the applicant is only proposing rail service to Parcels 19, 20, and 21 along the southern project boundary- Buildings or Parcels 19, 20, and 21 will be designed for rail service potential. The Design Review Committee conceptually approved the proposed rail service at its meeting on October 3, 1991. B. Design Review Committee: The Committee (McNiel, Chitlea, Kroutil) reviewed the proposal on October 3, 1991, and directed the applicant to revise the entry designs of the proposed buildings and return to the Design Review Committee for further review. On November 21, 1991, the Committee (McNiel, Chitiea, Kroutil) reviewed the revisions and conceptually approved the project subject to final City Planner approval of the following revisions: PLANNING CO~4ISSION STAFF REPORT DR 91-08 - CAFELLINO AND ASSOCIATES January 8, 1992 Page 3 1. Buildings 5A and 5B: a. The vertical brick soldier course should be extended up to the reveal line along the front elevation and wrap onto the side and rear elevations to provide better definition and articulation to the building entrances- STAFF COIe!ENT: The elevations haVe been modified as 2. Building 6: a · The column elements at the entry should be "tied" together with the use of the brick material to strengthen building articulation. b. The north elevation should contain more articulation due to its visibility from the street- c. The columns should contain "depth" and movement instead of appearing as plant-ons. STAFF COMMENT: The applicant has redesigned Buila4-g 6 to address the above identified issue- Staff feels that the revisions adequately address those concerns expressed by the Committee - The revised architecture again utilizes the brick and sandblast treatment, with additional articulation to the mallions with the use of a horizontal sandblast shelf, proviatng a strong architoctural statement at the entrance. 3 - Building 7: a. The glass/brick columns should either be all glass or all brick- b. A brick base should be carried across the bottom as a "structural support element." STAFF COIe(M~T: The elevations have been modified as suggested · 4. Building 8: a. The sandblasted column/element should be redesigned to be proportionate to the roof plane directly above it. b. The plaza area should contain additional brick detailing along the seat wall to break-up the elevation and add articulation to the view from the east- pLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT DR 91-08 - CAPELLINO AND ASSOCIATES January 8, 1992 Page 4 STAFF CO!!~MNT: The elevations have bee modified as suggested · 5. The aluminum window frames should be painted to blend in with the glass color on all buildings- STAFF COMMENT: See C~dition X. C. Discussion: The project has received conceptual approval from the Grading, Technical, and Design Review Committees- Future reviews by the Commission will occur with the Development Review processes of Phases II and III. D. En'vironmental Assessment: Staff has completed the Environmental Checklist and has found no significant adverse environmental impacts as a result of this project- Concern has been expressed about the amount of surface runoff and the ability of the existing storm drain to handle the flows. As a result, on-site retention basins have been provided to monitor the runoff · Issues were brought up regarding the proposed on-site retention for the project and the amount of surface runoff that would be generated. Conditions have been placed on the project to mitigate all possible negative impacts, i.e., limiting the amount of surface runoff to be consistent with the capacity of the existing public storm drain, additional catch basins and minimizing on-site retention- Therefore, staff has determined that no significant impacts will occur to the existing drainage facilities- If the Planning Commission concurs with these findings, issuance of a Negative Declaration would be appropriate. FACTS FOR FINDINGS: In order for the Planning Commission to approve this proposed Master Plan, facts supporting the following findings must be made: 1. That the proposed project is consistent with objectives of the General Plan and the Industrial Specific Plan; and 2. That the proposed use is in accord with the objective of the Industrial Specific Plan and the purposes of the district in which the site is located; and 3 · That the proposed use is in compliance with each of the applicable provisions of the Industrial Specific Plan and the Development Code; and 4.

Industrial (subarea 8) and Industrial Park (subarea 7) South - Minimum Impact Heavy Industrial (Subarea 9) East - Minimum Impact Heavy Industrial (Subarea 9) West - General Industrial (Subarea 8) F. Site Characteristics: The site is vacant and slopes to the south at 2 percent. Arrow Route, which forms the northern boundary, has been widened on the north side. An AT&SF railroad spur forms the east boundary with a partial spur defining the south boundary. Unimproved Vincent Avenue will be extended and curved to align with White Oak Avenue on the west side. II. ANALYSIS: The purpose of this parcel map is to create 22 parcels corresponding to the industrial master plan being considered as Development Review 91-08 on tonight's agenda. The tentative map is shown in Exhibit "B" and the detailed site plan for DR 91-08, with parcel lines highlighted, has been included as Exhibit "C." This development will complete Arrow Route from the west project boundary to east of the at-grade railroad crossing. White Oak Avenue (formerly Vincent Avenue) will be realigned to provide a 4-way intersection at Arrow Route, with a traffic signal, and Lot "A" will be deeded to the adjacent property owner on the west. Due to the limited capacity of downstream drainage facilities, private on-site retention (underground facility and parking areas) will be necessary. Public storm drains will be provided in White Oak Avenue and "A" Street; the system in Arrow Route already exists. III. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The applicant completed Part I of the Initial Study. Staff conducted a field investigation and completed Part II of the Initial Study. No adverse impacts upon the environment are anticipated as a result of this project. Therefore, issuance of Negative Declaration is appropriate.

PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA BY: Larry T- McNiel, Chairman ATTEST: Brad Buller, Secretary I, Brad Buller, Secretary of the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, do hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was duly and regularly introduced, passed, and adopted by the Planning Commission of the City of Rancho Cucamonga, at a regular meeting of the Planning Commission held on the 8th day of January, 1992, by the following vote-to-wit: AYES: COMMISSIONERS: NQES: COMMISSIONERS: ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA STAFF REPORT DATE: January 8, 1992 TO: Chairman and Members of the Planning Commission FROM: Brad Buller, City Planner BY: Anna-Lisa Hernandez, Assistant Planner SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 91-26 - CAPELLINO AND ASSOCIATES - The request to establish two office use buildings (administrative, professional design services, finance, insurance and real estate services, medical services, and personal services) within a proposed industrial master plan on 51.8 acres of land in the General Industrial District (Subarea 8) of the Industrial Area Specific Plan, located at the southeast corner of Arrow Route and White Oak Avenue - APN: 209-142-06- Related files: Development Review 91-08 and Parcel Map 12959. Staff recommends issuance of a Negative Declaration- PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: A. Action Requested by Applicant: Approval of a non-construction Conditional Use Permit 91-26 to allow Office/Professional Medical and Personal Service uses in a General Industrial Master Plan- B. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning: North - Existing multi-tenant Industrial Park and Post Office, Industrial Park District, Subarea 7 Industrial area Specific Plan; South - Vacant and existing Minimum Impact Heavy Industrial, Subarea 9, Industrial Area Specific Plan East - Vacant, Minimum Impact Heavy and existing Light Manufacturing Industrial, Subarea 9, Industrial Area Specific Plan West - Existing General Industrial, Subarea 8, Industrial Area Specific Plan C- General Plan Designations: Project Site - General Industrial North - General Industrial South - Heavy Industrial East - General Industrial west - General Industrial ITEM K PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 91-26 - CAPELLINO AND ASSOCIATES January 8, 1992 Page 2 GENERAL AND ANALYSIS: A. General: The applicant desires to obtain approval of a Conditional Use Permit for anticipated users for two buildings within a master planned industrial complex (see related staff report DR 91-08). The applicant's intent is to facilitate leasing of the two buildings, which are designed for office-type users, by obtaining a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) at this time for all anticipated uses rather than having to process separate CUP applications as each potential tenant becomes known. The buildings (nos. 2 and 3, see attached Site Plan Exhibit "C") are located along the north project boundary along Arrow Route. Both buildings are to be built with Phase III of the Master Plan and will be formally reviewed by the Planning Co~nission at a later date. Buildings 2 and 3 are proposed to be 2-story with the conceptual footprints of 28,416 square feet and 31,162 square feet, respectively- The area surrounding the proposed Master Plan consists of Office directly north and a Post Office to the northwest- Because the buildings are conceptually designed to relate to other surrounding buildings and uses along this portion of Arrow Highway, staff finds the proposed use request consistent with surrounding land uses. B. Land Use Issues: The applicant is requesting approval of the following uses which may be conditionally permitted within Subarea 8: Administrative and Office; Professional/Design Services; Financial; Insurance and Real Estate Services; Medical/Health Care Service; and Personal Services. These uses are service oriented, rather than manufacturing oriented; hence, the Industrial Area Specific Plan requires a Conditional Use Permit review. Subarea 8 is an area intended for General Industrial activities and to assure for a proper transition from the Heavy Industrial category south of this area to the Industrial Park category north of this area. Permitted industrial uses within Subarea 8 include Custom and Light Manufacturing, and Light Wholesale, Storage, and Distribution. Examples of other service-oriented uses permitted within Subarea 8 include Business Supply Retail Sales and Services; Business Support Services; Research Services; and Administrative Civic Services. Since the proposed uses are confined to their own freestanding buildings, staff does not anticipate land use conflicts, such as noise or vibration, to occur. The issue of granting this Conditional Use Permit, versus reviewing each prospective tenant on an individual basis, deserves careful consideration- In the past, the Planning Commission has been cautious in granting such requests; however, it is not without precedent. The Industrial Specific Plan establishes that selected uses in each district are only allowed subject to the granting of a CUP because of their unique site development requirements and operating characteristics. The Conditional Use Permit process is intended .to afford an opportunity for broad public review and PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 91-26 - CAPELLINO AND ASSOCIATES January 8, 1992 Page 3 evaluation of these requirements and characteristics, to provide adequate mitigation of any potentially adverse impacts, and to ensure that all site development regulations and performance standards are provided- Staff feels that the site development requirements can be adequately addressed through the review of the Master Plan. However, granting the CUP up-front would preclude analysis of unique operating characteristics on a case-by-case basis, as well as preclude the public hearing process- C. Parking: More than any other compatibility issue, parking has the potential for the greatest land use conflict. A total of 253 parking spaces have been provided for Buildings No. 2 and 3. The City's parking requirement would be 238 spaces, assuming an office parking ratio of 1 space per 250 square feet of gross floor area. However, the applicant is proposing a range of other uses besides Office, Design, Finance, Insurance and Real Estate Services. Both Medical and Personal Services ( such as day care facilities and computer training classes) have more intensive parking requirements than Office- Parcel 3 has provided 15 additional parking stalls which would provide some flexibility in allowing Health Care or Personal Service uses to locate within the project. Staff could support a defined amount of Medical/Health Care Services based upon the extra 15 parking spaces. For example, if Building No. 3 was devoted entirely to Medical/Health Care Services, the required parking would equal the parking provided ( 155 spaces ) · Assuming then that reciprocal parking is provided between Parcels 2 and 3, a total of 31,162 square feet of Medical/Health Care Service uses could be accommodated in Buildings No. 2 and 3. The calculation of Personal Services parking requirements is not as simple because it would depend on the specific land use proposed. Personal Services include instructional schools (i.e., computers, driving ), as well as day care facilities · Instructional schools require one parking space for each three students, plus one for each instructor or employee ( a ratio that staff feels is, in itself, inadequate). Day care facilities require parking based upon the number of children (one per five children) and staff (one per one staff). Therefore, it is impossible to determine how much Personal Service use could be accommodated within the proposed development; hence, staff cannot support this portion of the request · Staff recommends that Personal Services be deleted from any approval and reviewed on an individual CUP basis- D. Sheriff ' s Department and the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District: Both the Sheriff's Department and the Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District have been notified of the proposed uses- The Sheriff's Department has expressed no concern over the proposal- The Rancho Cucamonga Fire Protection District will require plan check prior to occupancy. PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 91-26 - CAPELLINO AND ASSOCIATES January 8, 1992 Page 4 FACTS FOR FINDINGS: The Commission must make all of the following findings in order to approve this application: A. That the proposed use is in accordance with the General Plan, the objectives of the Development Code, and the purposes of the Industrial Specific Plan Subarea in which the site is located- B. That the proposed use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity. C- That the proposed use complies with each of the applicable provisions of the Industrial Specific Plan- CORRESPONDENCE: This item has been advertised as a public hearing in the Inland Valle~ Daily Bulletin newspaper, the property was posted, and notices were sent to all property owners within 300 feet of the project site- RECOMMENDATION: If the Planning Commission can support the concept of granting a CUP at this time, then approval may be granted through adoption of the attached Resolution with conditions. If the Planning Comission feels that each prospective tenant should be reviewed on an individual basis, then the request should be denied and staff should be directed to prepare a Resolution with findings for adoption on your next consent calendar- City Planner BB:ALH:sp Attachment: Exhibit "A" - Extended Project Use Description from Applicant Exhibit "B" - Site Utilization Map Exhibit "C" - Site Plan Exhibit "D" - Fire District Comments Resolution of Approval C_.,ityof~Cucamonga P/M:l"rl Uniform Aplalieation PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The overall project consists of 30 buildings to be completed in three (3) phases. These buildings are in the GI-8 Land Use Area. Buildings #2 & #3 of Phase III are proposed as Arlmini~trative & office; Professional/Design Services; Financial, Insurance, and Real Estate Services; Medical, Health Care Services; and Personal Services which will require a CUP. A development of this magnitude would benefit by having the Office/Professional etc. as part of allowed use. These two buildings are planned as part of Phase III and would be available as the project nears completion. It is felt that this type of use will be very compatible with the quality of the development being proposed and be within the intent of the sub-area land use criteria. : ....carbonless Z~;~~7,~o~7(~,"--~/77 TRIP ~TO~ F ~ ~- R MEIBA~E !REPLY 4 ~ DATE ~~. 45 4~ pm ~ ~ M ~ ~ mY.

Box 807 Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91729 Staff and Cormnission members, We the undersigned residents of the 11900 and 12000 blocks of Chervil Street, in reference to the proposed development of a 148-room hotel and two dining establishments and two office k~ildings tentatively totalling 146,351 square feet on the approximately 8.32 acres at the northeast corner of Foothill Boulevard and Rochester Avenue (APN: 227-151-18 and 31) hereby register our concerns regarding the following issues: * The need for adequate buffering between the project site and the existing residential neighborbDod to the project slte's immediate north; * The level (i.e. helgbt) to ~ich the propcsed structures will be built and the degree to which this will intrude upon the privacy of those residing on the south side of Chervil St.; * The degree to which the proposed development will result in an increased nc.ise level in the general area; * The potential placement of a service road, alleyway or access corridor behind (i.e., north of) the stzuctures which will subject nearby residents to koth noise and exhaust fumes from idling delivery vehicles; * The potential extension of Fennel Ct. south to Foothill Blvd. and the extent te which this additional ingress to the. Rochester trect will result in increased traffic and traffic hazards to our residential neighborhood; * The increased traffic flow into our residential neigh]x,rhcod that in any case will inevitably result from the proposed development and the increased hazard this represents; * The inexactitude in the project descriptlon's reference to a "hotel", which, under greater scrutiny, could be more accurately described as a "motel"; * The potential that either the City or the project developer or both will fail to live up to earlier provided assurances that the project will proceed only in accordance with "the~ highest dev61opment standards"; * The potential for an unregulated "hotel" or "motel" complex to decline into a magnet for a host of illicit activities, including prostitution and drug dealing, all of which represent a threat to the health and safety of nearby residents; * The loss of the existing southward panorama which includes historic Route 66, the Abagozotti vineyards and the more distant Cleveland National Forest; * The discrepancy between the site's long standing and current zoning for office-professional use and the proposed use, which appears to be mainly commercial in nature; * The general incompatibility of the planned usage on the site and the already existing residential proF=erty to tke north; and * Any and all incompatibilities not now foreseen nor hereiD listed but which may at some future date become evident. As citizens of Rancko Cuc~monga, we trust that you will be mindful of cur legit]mate concerns as pertain to the environment in which we live and are raising cur families, and will use youz' position of public trust and authority to ensure our full rights under the law.

PROJECT AND SITE DESCRIPTION: A. Action Requested by Applicant: Approval of the concept Master Plan, Detailed Site Plan, Grading Plan, Landscape Plan, building elevations and issuance of a mitigated Negative Declaration. B. Surroundin~ Land Use and Zoning: North - Single family residential; Low residential District (2-4 dwelling units per acre) South - Single family residential, vacant; Industrial Park District (Subare 7) Industrial Area Specific Plan East - Utility corridor, flood control channels Flood Control West - Vacant; MOC District (Mixed Uses, Commercial, Office, Residential) Tetra Vista CoMity Plan C. General Plan Designations: Project Site - Office North - Low Residential South - Industrial Park East - Flood Control/Utility Corridor West - Medium Residential D. Site Characteristics: The project site is currently vacant and vegetation consists of native grass and weeds. The grade is relatively flat with the slope ranging from approximately 1 to 2 percent fr~n north to south- Street improvements have recently been completed at the adjacent intersection providing both an expanded right-of-way and a signalized intersection- ITEM L PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 89-13 - HWANG January 8, 1992 Page 2 E- Parking Calculations: Number of Number of Building Square Parking Spaces Spaces Number Foota~e Ratio Required · Provided Hotel 1/Unit 148 148 2/Mgr. 2 2 Restaurant 5,000 1/100 50 50 Restaurant 6,000 1/100 60 60 Office 43,000 1/250 172 172 432 432 F. Applicable Regulations: Hotel uses are permitted within the Office District of the Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan ( Subarea 4 ) subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit · The height limitation is 40 feet; greater than 40 feet may be approved through a Conditional Use Permit. The building is approximately 42 feet in height (60 feet on tower). ANALYSIS: A. General: The application proposes the development of a four-story 148-room hotel totaling 92,351 square feet. The hotel building itself contains neither a restaurant nor bar; however, it does contain a pantry to be used for room service · There is a conference room located on the first floor that may be used by either patrons of the hotel or rented out for business or community meetings · B. Design Review Committee: On April 4, 1991, the Design Review Committee (Melcher, Vallette, Kroutil) reviewed the project but did not recommend approval because of concerns regarding the following design and site planning issues: 1. The location of the Phase I restaurant is acceptable as it complies with current development standards. However, since the activity center development standards for the Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan "Missing Link" will likely be in place prior to issuance of building permits, the applicant should provide an alternate site design for the restaurant that shows compliance with possible development standards- 2. Consider deleting designs of the Phase I restaurant until such time a tenant is determined and specific design elements can be established- 3 · Redesign the internal circulation along the major drive aisle. This should include relocating parking spaces that back up into the drive aisle and locating the drive aisle further south so that parking spaces to be provided for the office building can be located directly south of the buildings · PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 89-13 - HWANG January 8, 1992 Page 3 4. The location of the hotel is acceptable; however, the building design should be revised. Provide for changes in building mass through movement in the walls. This can be accomplished by terracing the building plane and through the addition of balconies and architectural projections. 5- Reduce width of the drive approached from 50 feet to 35 feet. 6. Redesign the northwest corner of the site to reduce the amount of paving and minimize circulation conflicts- 7. Parking lot landscape fingers should be provided to break up long uninterrupted rows of parking spaces- The applicant revised the project based upon Committee recommendation and submitted for additional review. On October 3, 1991, the Design Review Committee (Chitiea, McNiel, Kroutil) reviewed the project and recommended approval with the following modifications: 1. Provide additional landscape fingers to breakup long uninterrupted rows of parking spaces. 2. Expand the use of decorative paving (below the porte cochere) on both the handicapped ramp and adjacent parking spaces. 3. Decorative paving should be revised as follows: a- Use interlocking pavers along all pedestrian circulation paths and at both driveways. b. Use texturized paving along the main drive aisle. The texturized paving should include an exposed large aggregate finish bordered by a colored concrete band. 4- The restaurant pad at the corner of Foothill and Rochester should be relocated to the minimum building setback of the Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan Activity Center- Identify a logical phasing line for a boundary to the hardscape and landscape improvements installed at this location. 5. Provide additional architectural elements to breakup large expanses of stucco on all elevations. 6- Provide either a cornice or corbel below all balcony projections to present the appearance of physical support. 7. Provide arched openings in the dome element- PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT CUP 89-13 - HWANG January 8, 1992 Page 4 8- Provide glass in the openings in the dome. 9. Provide an additional reveal line below the arched cornice at the top of the dome. 10. The columns above the first floor arcade should tie into the exterior walls of the first floor, either extend the columns to the ground or to the separation walls between the private balconies- 11. Provide a base element to the columns of the porte cochere- 12. Provide a decorative S-curve wrought iron at all balconies. The applicant submitted revised exhibits to reflect recommendations of the Design Review Comittee. The revisions generally address the Committee's concerns; however, specific conditions have been added where it was felt further clarification was necessary. C. Technical Review Committee: The Technical Review Committee reviewed the project on April 3 and October 2, 1991, and determined that with the conditions of approval, the project is consistent with all applicable standards and conditions. D. Environmental Assessment: The applicant completed Part I of the Initial Study- Staff has completed Part II of the Initial Study and the Environmental Checklist and found that the project could have significant adverse environmental impacts in terms of traffic, noise, light and glare, and hydrology. However, staff has determined that the project will not have a significant adverse effect because of the mitigation measures included in the project design and conditions of approval- FACTS FOR FINDINGS: The Planning Commission must make the following findings before approving this application: A. That the proposed project is in accordance with the General Plan, the objectives of the Development Code, and the purposes of the Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan subarea in which the project is located; and B. That the proposed project will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties or improvements in the vicinity; and C. The proposed project complies with each of the applicable provisions of the Development Code and the Foothill Boulevard Specific Plan.

Related File: Environmental Assessment and Vesting Tentative Tract 14211. ABSTRACT: The purpose of these amendments is to allow -conventional" single family detached residential development with lot sizes comparable to the Low Residential zone of the Development Code within the Low Medium and Medium Residential zones of the Etiwanda Specific Plan- The applicant (U.S- Home Corporation) formally submitted this application concurrently with their application for Vesting Tentative Tract 14211. It has been the intent of staff to process this request concurrently with the proposed proJect~ hence, the application has never been reviewed by the Planning Commission since the tentative map application was just recently deemed complete. On November 20, 1991, the City Council recommended that all of the property owned by U-S. Home Corporation be designated Low-Medium Residential, hence, making parts 1 and 3 from the amendment description above independent of the related tentative map proposal; only part 2 from the above description is relative to their subdivision proposal- pLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT ESPA 89-03 - U.S- HOME CORPORATION December 11, 199 1 Page 2 ANALYSIS: A. General The applicant is requesting three amendments to the Etiwanda Specific Plan as described above (see Exhibit "A")- Specifically, the amendments would allow this applicant to process a 226 lot single family detached subdivision (Vesting Tentative Tract 14211) on 81.2 acres of land with an average lot size of approximately 8,685 square feet and a net density of 2.8 dwelling units per acre. The tentative map has been designed to comply with the proposed amendments · The three specific facets of the amendment are analyzed as follows: 1. Allowing single family detached development in the Medium Residential District, Basic Development Standards: Currently, single family detached dwellings and duplexes are onlX allowed in this zone when utilizing the Optional Development Standards within the Etiwanda Specific Plan (see Exhibit "B"). The intent of the Optional Development Standards is to allow development at the upper end of the density ranges with minimal lot size and dimension restrictions in trade for usable, common open space areas that will benefit the residents within a particular project. However, the Etiwanda Specific Plan Development standards as currently written do not allow the developer the option of incorporating the required open space exclusively in private yards in the Medium Residential zone for single family or any type of development; minimum of 30 percent common open space and 40' percent total open space is required under the Optional Development Standards in the Medium Residential zone- The applicant contends, and staff agrees, that single family development with common open space facilities, which are typically maintained by a Homeowners Association and require written Covenants, Codes and Restrictions (CC&R's) is not desirable to all potential homeowners in the anticipated price range- In addition, many homeowners prefer to have larger private yards for their individual use and enjoyment- Therefore, the applicant concludes that the option to build under the Basic Development Standards should be allowed in the Medium Residential development district. Staff agrees that the standards should be more flexible to allow the developer the option of building a conventional single family subdivision under basic standards or a smaller lot subdivision with common open space under optional standards. If this portion of the amendment request is recommended for approval by the Planning Commission, then Part 3 of this amendment request should be considered in conjunction with this recommendation. Again, this portion of the request is now independent of the related project. pLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT ESPA 89-03 - U.S. HOME CORPORATION December 11, 199 1 Page 3 2. Reducing the minimum average lot size from 10,000 to 8,900 square feet within the Low Medium Residential District, Basic Development Standards: In keeping with the goals and objectives for a more rural and sensitively planned atmosphere within the Etiwanda Specific Plan area, the adopted Basic Development Standards are intended to allow development in the lower half of each density range- Specifically, the established minimum average lot size of 10,000 square feet in the Low Medium District yields a maximum density of 4.36 dwelling units per acre for conventional single family residential development (see Exhibit "C") with a Low-Medium Residential density range of 4-8 dwelling units per acre. If the minimum average lot size were reduced to 8,900 square feet in this zone, then the maximum density would rise to 4.89 dwelling units per acre for this type of development; still well within the lower half of the density range. Also, it should be noted that the Basic Development Standards within the Development Code have been established with a much smaller minimum average lot size in the Low Medium Residential District (refer to Exhibit "D"), 6,000 square feet. For comparison, a maximum density of 7.26 dwelling units per acre could be generated in areas governed by the Development Code, significantly higher than the proposed Etiwanda Specific Plan Amendment maximum of 4.89 dwelling units per acre. Therefore, if this portion of the amendment were recommend for approval as proposed, the general intent for lower densities and a less suburban atmosphere would, in staffs opinion, still be intact. Please note that the applicant's request was designed to meet the needs of their specific project prior to the City Council's action of November 20, 1991. Now that the entire site is designated Low-Medium Residential, the applicant would need to have the minimum average lot size reduced to 8,685 square feet or lower. If the Commission feels that an even smaller minimum average lot size is appropriate (example: 8,500 square foot minimum average may allow a maximum of 5.12 units per acre, 8,000 square feet, 5.45 units per acre), then the Resolution for this amendment may be revised accordingly- It is staff's opinion that an 8,500 square foot minimum average lot size is appropriate in keeping with the general intent of the Etiwanda Specific Plan and will allow a slightly higher density, yet well below the mid-point for established range. 3. Reducing the minimum average lot size from 10,000 square feet to 8,500 s~uare feet within the Medium Residential D~strict, Basic Development Standards: PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT ESPA 89-03 - U.S. HOME CORPORATION December 11, 199 1 Page 4 Assuming single family development under Basic Development Standards in the Medium Residential District is recommended, (see item 1 ) there would be potential density of 4.36 dwelling units per acre with the current lot size standards, well below the Medium Residential District density range of 8-14 dwelling units per acre (see Exhibit "C"). If the applicant's request for a minimum average lot size of 8,500 square feet was recommended, a maximum density of 5.12 dwelling units per acre is possible, still well below the minimum density for this zone. Conversely, density of 8 units per acre would yield an average lot size of approximately 5,445 square feet · In staff ' s opinion, it would not be appropriate to allow 5,445 average square foot lots in the Etiwanda Area for the purposes of allowing "conventional" single family subdivisions at 8 units per acre since the density range for the Medium Residential District was established for multiple family development ( condominiums, townhouses ) or small lot single family development with ample common open space; "conventional" single family subdivisions were not anticipated since property owners typically prefer to maximize density. An 8,000 square foot minimum average, which would generate a potential maximum density of 5 · 45 units per acre, is appropriate because it would allow more conventional single family development at a density that meets the intent and purposes of the Etiwanda Specific Plan. Again, this portion of the amendment request is now independent of the related tentative map, based on the action of the City Council on November 20, 199~. B. Cumulative Environmental Assessment: Part I of the Initial Study has been completed by the applicant. Staff has completed Part II of the Environmental Checklist and found no significant adverse environmental impacts will occur as a result of these 'amendments. The issue for consideration is an anticipated reduction of the proposed land use intensity; therefore, staff believes the impact of the type of development allowed under the revised standards should not be more significant than originally described in the environmental review for the Etiwanda Specific Plan and General Plan. If the Planning Commission concurs, then issuance of a Negative Declaration would be in order. FACTS FOR FINDINGS: In order for the Planning Commission to approve the proposed amendments, the following facts for findings must be made: A. The proposed amendments will not have a significant impact on the environment as evidenced by the conclusions and findings of the Initial Study Part II. pLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT ESPA 89-03 - U.S- HOME CORPORATION December 11, 199 1 Page 5 B. The proposed amendments will promote and further implement the goals and objectives of the Etiwanda Specific Plan by helping to preserve the unique historical nature of the Etiwanda area through lower densities- C. The proposed amendments are consistent with the goals and objectives of the Etiwanda Specific Plan and General Plan. D. The proposed amendments would not be materially injurious or detrimental to adjacent properties · CORRESPONDENCE: This item has been advertised as a public hearing in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper, the project has been posted, and notices have been sent to all property owners within 300 feet of the project site- RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Planning Commission recommend approval of Etiwanda Specific Plan Amendment 89-03 and issuance of a Negative Declaration to the City Council- / BB:SH:mlg Attachments: Exhibit "A" - Letters from Applicant Exhibit "B" - Etiwanda Specific Plan Section 5.22,201 (Residential Land Uses) Exhibit "C" - Etiwanda Specific Plan Figure 5-2 (Basic Development Standards) Exhibit "D" - Table 17.08.040-B (Basic Development Standards) Exhibit "E" - Development District Map of the Etiwanda Area Resolution of Approval for Etiwanda Specific Plan Amendment 89-03 Draft City Council Ordinance of Approval for Etiwanda Specific Plan Amendment 89-03 L A WAINSC01'r & ASSOCIATES, INC.

The footnote on page 5-5 be amended to allow single family dwelling in the Medium Zone. Very little M zone exist in the Etiwanda Specific Plan and the.areas that are within this zone are surrounded by single family homes.

The Basis Development Standards table be amended lot area from 10,000 to reduce the minmum average s.q- feet to 8,200 square feet. This would not reduce the minimum lot size but would allow a smaller average than that on the LM zone.

The Community and Parks Development staff has assembled the attached engineering standards which apply to street tree selection, placement, and installation. It should also be noted that these standards affect trees within the right-of-way and other areas that are publicly maintained. To assist the Planning Commission in your discussion of this matter, staff has highlighted several of the key elements of the standards currently in place- A. Approved Street Tree List:: This list reflects those trees which have demonstrated reliable performance in the area in and around Rancho Cucamonga. Trees which in the past have done poorly in the wind or have demonstrated root problem have been omitted from the list. B. Tree Placement Standards: Standards have been established to avoid tree. planting where it may conflict with utilities or interfere with sight distance. This was done to avoid the necessity of removing trees as they mature. C- Double Staked Trees (Within 5 feet of Hardscape): This detail applies to probably 90 percent of all trees because of their common locations between curbs and sidewalks. The gavel surrounding the barrier hastens water movement to the root zone, thereby, promoting deep rooting- D. Double Staked Tree (No Root Barrier): This detail is employed where there is ample planting area (with no potential for root damaged hardscape within 5 feet). Note, that there is a perforated pipe filled with gavel to encourage deep rooting. We are studying the effectiveness of this requirement, and it may not be required in the future- ITEM N PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT TREE PLANTING DETAILS January 8, 1991 Page 2 Common to both of these double staked tree planting details is a specified staking orientation which, combined with the flexible tree ties, allows for tree movement between the stakes (not against them)- It is our policy to remove staking as soon as the trees can support themselves- RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Co~ission review the materials submitted on the tree planting details. If further investigations are necessary, staff should be directed to bring this matter back along with the Planning Division's work program for consideration of setting priorities- Respectfully submitted, Brad Buller City Planner BB:GS Attachments: Exhibit "A" - Street Tree List Exhibit "B" - Tree Placement Standard Drawing Exhibit "C" - Standard for Double Staked Tree (Within 5 Feet of Hardscape Exhibit "D" - Standard for Double Staked Tree (No Root Barrier) CITY OF RANCHO CUCAJqONGA STREET TREE LIST Suggested Minimum Minimum Botanical Name Conmnon Name O.C.
