NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY FOUND, DETERMINED, AND RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Ontario, as follows:
SECTION 1: Environmental Determination and Findings. As the recommending body for the Project, the City Council has reviewed and considered the information contained in the Addendum, the initial study, and the administrative record for the Project, including all written and oral evidence provided during the comment period.
Based upon the facts and information contained in the Addendum, the initial study, and the administrative record, including all written and oral evidence presented, the City Council finds as follows:
(1) The environmental impacts of the Project were reviewed in conjunction with an Addendum to The Ontario Plan 2050 Supplemental Environmental 2318
Impact Report (State Clearinghouse No. 2021070364), certified by the Ontario City Council on August 16, 2022, in conjunction with File No.
PGPA20-002; and
(2) The SEIR Addendum and administrative record have been completed in compliance with CEQA, the State CEQA Guidelines, and the City of Ontario Local CEQA Guidelines; and
(3) The City's "Guidelines for the Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)" provide for the use of a single environmental assessment in situations where the impacts of subsequent projects are adequately analyzed. This Application introduces no new significant environmental impacts; and
(4) All previously adopted mitigation measures shall be a condition of project approval, as they are applicable to the Project, and are incorporated herein by this reference; and
(5) The SEIR Addendum contains a complete and accurate reporting of the environmental impacts associated with the Project, and reflects the independent judgment of the City Council; and
(6) There is no substantial evidence in the administrative record supporting a fair argument that the project may result in significant environmental impacts.
SECTION 2: Subsequent or Supplemental Environmental Review Not Required. Based on the SEIR Addendum, all related information presented to the City Council, and the specific findings set forth in Section 1, above, the City Council finds that the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental Certified SEIR is not required for the Project, as the Project:
(1) Does not constitute substantial changes to the Certified SEIR that will require major revisions to the Certified SEIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; and
(2) Does not constitute substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which the Certified SEIR was prepared, that will require major revisions to the Certified SEIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of the previously identified significant effects; and
(3) Does not contain new information of substantial importance that was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the Certified SEIR was certified/adopted, that shows any of the following:
2319
(a) The Project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the Certified SEIR; or
(b) Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the Certified SEIR; or
(c) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the Project, but the City declined to adopt such measures; or
(d) Mitigation measures or alternatives considerably different from those analyzed in the Certified SEIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but which the City declined to adopt.
SECTION 3: Housing Element Compliance. Pursuant to the requirements of California Government Code Chapter 3, Article 10.6, commencing with Section 65580, as the decision-making body for the Project, the City Council finds that based upon the facts and information contained in the Application and supporting documentation, at the time of Project implementation, the project is consistent with the Housing Element of the Policy Plan (General Plan) component of The Ontario Plan, as the project site is not one of the properties in the Housing Element Sites Inventory contained in Tables B-1 and B-2 of the Housing Element Technical Report.
SECTION 4: Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan ("ALUCP") Compliance.
The California State Aeronautics Act (Public Utilities Code Section 21670 et seq.) requires that an Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan be prepared for all public use airports in the State; and requires that local land use plans and individual development proposals must be consistent with the policies set forth in the adopted Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan.
On April 19, 2011, the City Council of the City of Ontario approved and adopted the Ontario International Airport Land use Compatibility Plan, establishing the Airport Influence Area for Ontario International Airport, which encompasses lands within parts of San Bernardino, Riverside, and Los Angeles Counties, and limits future land uses and development within the Airport Influence Area, as they relate to noise, safety, airspace protection, and overflight impacts of current and future airport activity. As the decisionmaking body for the Project, the City Council has reviewed and considered the facts and information contained in the Application and supporting documentation against the ONT ALUCP compatibility factors, including [1] Safety Criteria (ONT ALUCP Table 2-2) and Safety Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-2), [2] Noise Criteria (ONT ALUCP Table 2-3) and Noise Impact Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-3), [3] Airspace protection Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-4), and [4] Overflight Notification Zones (ONT ALUCP Map 2-5). As a result, the City Council finds and determines that the Project, when implemented in conjunction with the conditions of approval, will be consistent with the policies and criteria set forth within the ONT ALUCP; and
2320
SECTION 5: Concluding Facts and Reasons. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to the City Council during the above-referenced hearing, and upon the specific findings set forth in Sections 1 through 4, above, the City Council hereby concludes as follows:
(1) The proposed PUD, or amendment thereto, is consistent with the goals, policies, plans and exhibits of the Vision, Policy Plan (General Plan), and City Council Priorities components of The Ontario Plan. The Project is consistent with the Vision, Policy Plan (General Plan), and City Council Priorities components of The Ontario Plan in that the mixed-use standards and guidelines specified in the PUD align with The Ontario Plan.
The Watermarke Ontario Planned Unit Development (“PUD”) Objectives section titled “Consistency with The Ontario Plan”, describes how the PUD complies with the Policy Plan goals, policies, and plans. (2) The proposed PUD, or amendment thereto, would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or general welfare of the City. The City Council has required certain safeguards through conditions of approval, which have been established to ensure that: [i] the purposes of the Planned Unit Development are maintained; [ii] the project will not endanger the public health, safety or general welfare; [iii] the project will not result in any significant environmental impacts; [iv] the project will be in harmony with the area in which it is located; and [v] the project will be in full conformity with the Vision, City Council Priorities and Policy Plan components of The Ontario Plan.
(3) In the case of an application affecting specific property(ies), the proposed PUD, or amendment thereto, will not adversely affect the harmonious relationship with adjacent properties and land uses. The adjacent neighborhoods consist of existing single-family dwellings and commercial development. The Watermarke Ontario Planned Unit Development was prepared to ensure that on-site development is sensitive to and complementary of the surrounding development, and the surrounding development is compatible with the proposed residential and commercial mixed-use development. Therefore, the Project does not affect the harmonious relationship with adjacent properties and land uses. (4) In the case of an application affecting specific property(ies), the subject site is physically suitable, including, but not limited to, parcel size, shape, access, and availability of utilities, for the request and anticipated development. In preparing the PUD, a thorough review and analysis of the proposed Project and the subject site’s physical suitability for the Project was completed, including analysis of the Project size and shape, intensity of development, building height and setbacks, site access, site landscaping and drainage, fences and walls, vehicle and pedestrian circulation, availability of mass transit, necessary street dedication and easements, public right-of-way improvements, availability of utilities and other infrastructure needs, off-street parking, building orientation and 2321
streetscapes, architectural character, building materials and character, and site signage. Based upon this review and analysis, the subject site has been deemed physically suitable, including but not limited to parcel size, shape, access, and availability of utilities for the proposed PUD and proposed development.
(5) The proposed PUD is superior to that which could be obtained through the application of the Development Code or a specific plan. The PUD will establish minimum building setbacks, parking and open space requirements, private storage provisions, a planting palette, allowable land uses preferable to support the proposed development and the surrounding community, and more. These standards will facilitate the development of up to 357 dwelling units and 3,800 square feet of commercial space and accompanying improvements. The proposed PUD will allow for subsequent development that is superior to that which could be obtained through the application of the Development Code by itself, by means of facilitating the development of high-density apartments, restaurants, retail shops, and other commercial services that will serve to achieve the City’s goals of economic revitalization of an underutilized commercial center. Lastly, the PUD will further serve to implement the vision of the Mixed Use – Neighborhood Hub 8b – Mountain and Fourth (MU-NH 8b) zoning district, and the Mixed Use - Neighborhood Activity Hub: 20.0 to 75.0 du/ac; 1.0 FAR office/retail (MU-NH) land use district of the Policy Plan by allowing for this vibrant and well-designed mixed-use development.
SECTION 6: City Council Action. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in Sections 1 through 5, above, the City Council hereby APPROVES the herein described Watermarke Ontario Planned Unit Development, attached hereto as “Attachment B”, subject to each and every condition set forth in the Department reports attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
SECTION 7: Indemnification. The Applicant shall agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless, the City of Ontario or its agents, officers, and employees from any claim, action or proceeding against the City of Ontario or its agents, officers or employees to attack, set aside, void, or annul this approval. The City of Ontario shall promptly notify the applicant of any such claim, action, or proceeding, and the City of Ontario shall cooperate fully in the defense.
SECTION 8: Custodian of Records. The documents and materials that constitute the record of proceedings on which these findings have been based are located at the City of Ontario City Hall, 303 East "B" Street, Ontario, California 91764. The custodian for these records is the City Clerk of the City of Ontario.

WATERMARKE ONTARIO PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
INTRODUCTION
This document is intended to function as a set of planning and design principles, development regulations and performance standards to guide and govern the development of a 5.81-acre land area located on the northeast corner of Mountain Avenue and Fourth Street.
The project site is located within The Ontario Plan (TOP) Mixed Use – Neighborhood Activity Hubs (MU- NH), which requires the establishment of a Planned Unit Development (PUD) prior to development. This PUD fulfills the requirements of Mountain/Fourth Avenue Mixed Use (MU-8b) zoning district, as set forth in Ontario Development Code Section 4.01.030 (Planned Unit Developments (PUD) and Amendments). The Watermarke Ontario Planned Unit Development (PUD) will establish development standards that apply to the affected property. Unless otherwise defined herein, definitions and interpretations contained in the Development Code shall apply. City staff and private developers will rely on this PUD to determine whether precise plans for development (“Development Plans”) will adequately meet the City’s land use and design objectives.
LOCATION
The Project is located in the City of Ontario in the County of San Bernardino. The PUD area occupies 5.81 acres of the northeast corner of Mountain Avenue and Fourth Street and includes four parcels (APNs 1008-513-16, 1008-522-01, 1008-522-02, and 1008-522-03).
Regional access to the Project area would be facilitated through Interstate 10 (I-10) approximately 0.6 miles north of the site, and State Route 83 (SR- 83) approximately 0.9 miles east of the site.

WATERMARKE ONTARIO PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
OBJECTIVES
Consistency with the Ontario Plan
The Ontario Plan (TOP) is the primary planning document for the City and is intended to guide City growth for the next 20 years. The Ontario Plan includes six components:
1. The Vision component summarizes the City’s major goals for the foreseeable future as well as the preferred character to be reinforced throughout the future growth.
2. The Governance Manual summarizes the City’s guidelines regarding decision-making authorities and actions for City leadership in order to reinforce the City’s intended character.
3. The Policy Plan acts as the City’s General Plan and includes the City’s goals and policies meant to guide growth through the general plan planning period.
4. The City Council Priorities outlines the Council’s goals for a given year.
5. The Implementation component summarizes the methods with which the City will execute goals and policies included in the general plan.
6. The Tracking and Feedback component, once updated, will catalogue the City’s progress in implementing the goals and policies of the Policy Plan and Vision component.
The City’s Policy Plan’s goals and policies are intended to guide the City’s continued growth. These goals extend to the Project’s proposed residential and commercial uses and the Project area’s Mixed Use – Neighborhood Activity Hub (MU-NH) land use designation. The MU-NH land use designations are intended to allow for the development of low-rise mixtures of retail and residential uses which may serve the surrounding residents.
This PUD is designed to achieve the purpose of this land use designation and comply with applicable goals and policies such as the following:
Land Use Element
Goal LU-1: A community has a spectrum of housing types and price ranges that match the jobs in the City and that make it possible for people to live and work in Ontario and maintain a quality of life. ◢ Policy LU-1.1: Strategic Growth. We concentrate growth in strategic locations that help create place and identity, maximize available and planned infrastructure, foster the development of transit, and support the expansion of the active and multimodal transportation networks throughout the City.
◢ PUD Consistency. Mountain Avenue is classified as an arterial road as well as a Class I multipurpose trail, these classifications lend themselves to high volumes of pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Additionally, mass transit bus stops are located at the southwest and northeast corners of the Mountain Avenue and Fourth Street intersection. The PUD would enable the development of multifamily residential uses adjacent to higher capacity roadways as well as available mass transit stops. ◢ Policy LU-1.6: Complete Community. We incorporate a variety of land uses and building types in our land use planning efforts that result in a complete community where residents at all stages of life, employers, workers, and visitors have a wide spectrum of choices of where they can live, work, shop and recreate within Ontario. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD would allow for the development of residential and retail uses within the PUD site. The requirements presented in the PUD encourage the development of neighborhood scale commercial opportunities which would serve residents within the PUD as well as surrounding areas.
Goal LU-2: Compatibility between a wide range of uses and resultant urban patterns and forms. ◢ Policy LU-2.1: Land Use Decisions. We minimize adverse impacts on adjacent properties when considering land use and zoning requests. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD area’s MU-8b zoning designation requires that a PUD be implemented for to establish specific development standards, land use regulations and design guidelines. The permitted uses within PUD have been established to provide residential and commercial uses to serve internal residents and surrounding residential area. 2 2329
WATERMARKE ONTARIO PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
Goal LU-3: Staff, regulations and processes that support and allow flexible response to conditions and circumstances in order to achieve the Vision.
◢ Policy LU-3.2: Design Incentives. We offer design incentives to help projects achieve the Vision. ◢ PUD Consistency. MU-8b zones require the creation of a PUD to establish specific development standards for a given area. Standards within a PUD may vary from the established development standards of the City’s development code to achieve the City’s vision more adequately or efficiently. This PUD includes design standards which strive to maintain the City’s vision for stable, dynamic growth while maintaining overall quality throughout all components of the development.
Goal LU-4: Development that provides short-term value only when the opportunity to achieve our Vision can be preserved. ◢ Policy LU-4.4: Shared Infrastructure. We encourage and facilitate the use of shared infrastructure (including shared or managed parking) in urban, mixed use, and transit-oriented Place Types. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD area encourages the integration of residential and nonresidential uses through mixed use development.
Development standards within this PUD, therefore, encourage shared infrastructure such as parking and utility facilities. The Project includes a single central parking garage which contains all parking spaces for both the residential and retail uses in the PUD area.
Additionally, the Project would provide for shared garbage collection between residential and retail uses.
Housing Element
Goal H-1: Stable neighborhoods of quality housing, ample community services and public facilities, well- maintained infrastructure, and public safety that foster a positive sense of identity. ◢ Policy H-1.2: Neighborhood Conditions. We direct efforts to improve the long-term sustainability of neighborhoods through comprehensive planning, provision of neighborhood amenities, rehabilitation and maintenance of housing, and community building efforts. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD describes standards which can be used to develop a mixed-use residential community with attached retail uses. These standards include open space requirements which include the creation of recreational amenities. While the PUD includes designs for a specific project, this document allows for the development of other developments if the proposed Project is removed or redeveloped. The standards within this PUD would ensure that high-quality mixed-use developments can continue to be developed within the PUD area.

◢ Policy S-3.8: Fire Prevention through Environmental Design. We require new development to incorporate fire prevention consideration in the design of streetscapes, sites, open spaces, and buildings. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD would incorporate fire prevention infrastructure such as fire extinguishers and smoke alarms. Additionally, the Project would provide additional fire hydrants and fire access points for fire abatement.
Goal S-7: Residential neighborhoods, commercial areas, and industrial districts that are kept safe through a multi-faceted approach of prevention, suppression, and community involvement in public safety. ◢ Policy S-7.4: Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED). We require new development to incorporate CPTED in the design of streetscapes, sites, open spaces, and buildings. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD requires the use of security lighting as well as the placement of a gated perimeter between existing developments bordering the Project area. Additionally, the PUD restricts access to residential neighborhoods from all entities except emergency personnel.
Community Design Element
Goal CD-1: A dynamic, progressive city containing distinct and complete places that foster a positive sense of identity and belonging among residents, visitors, and businesses.
◢ Policy CD-1.2: Place Types. We establish Place Types in urban, mixed use, and transit-oriented areas to foster the City’s identity as a premier community and require new development within each Place Type to incorporate prescribed urban patterns, forms, and placemaking priorities.
◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD presents development standards which require the creation of well designed, community centric mixed-use developments. The PUD establishes standards within the PUD area which would establish quality architectural and visual consistency. 4 2331
WATERMARKE ONTARIO PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
Goal CD-2: A high level of design quality resulting in neighborhoods, commercial areas, public spaces, parks, and streetscapes that are attractive, safe, functional, human- scale, and distinct. ◢ Policy CD-2.1: Quality Building Design and Architecture. We encourage all development projects to convey visual interest and character through:
1. Building volume, massing, and height to provide context-appropriate scale and proportion;
2. A true architectural style which is carried out in plan, section, and elevation through all aspects of the building and site design and appropriate for its setting; and
3. Exterior building materials that are articulated, high quality, durable, and appropriate for the architectural style. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD will seek to accommodate the City’s residential growth and enhance its economic growth by creating residential and retail opportunities within a mixed-use zone. The PUD area will be distinctive through the requirement of well-designed project(s) through standards focused on:
• Appropriate scale and massing
• Architectural style and design that are complementary and appropriate to for its setting. • The use of high-quality materials that will create visual interest, high quality, durable and appropriate for the architectural style. • Appropriate site planning to ensure building orientation visibility from the street, adequate number of driveways and sidewalks, building setbacks, parking lot orientation, adequate refuse storage areas and well-designed street frontages. ◢ Policy CD-2.2: Neighborhood Design. We create distinct residential neighborhoods that promote a sense of community and identity by emphasizing access, connectivity, livability, and social interaction through such elements as:
1. A pattern of smaller, walkable blocks that promote activity, safety, and access to nearby amenities and services;
2. Varied parcel sizes and lot configurations to accommodate a diversity of housing types;
3. Traffic calming measures to slow traffic and promote walkability while maintaining acceptable traffic flows and emergency evacuation access;
4. Floor plans that encourage views onto the street and de-emphasize the visual and physical dominance of garages (introducing the front porch as the “outdoor living room”), as appropriate; and
5. Landscaped parkways, with sidewalks separated from the curb and designed to maximize safety, comfort, and aesthetics for all users. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD allows for the development of mixed-use residential structures at a human scale through the use of pedestrian walkways and minimal internal roadways. The PUD also requires the orientation of buildings to form along the public roadway.
The PUD also includes standards which require appropriate site planning to ensure building orientation visibility from the street, an adequate number of driveways and sidewalks, building setbacks, parking lot orientation, adequate refuse storage areas and welldesigned street frontages. ◢ Policy CD-2.4: Urban, Mixed Use, and Transit-oriented Areas. We establish Place Types to require mixed use, urban, and transitoriented areas to be designed and developed as pedestrian oriented areas that are integrated with adjacent neighborhoods and promote a vibrant, comfortable, and functional environment, as defined for each Place Type. ◢ PUD Consistency. The permitted uses within PUD have been established to provide residential and retail uses to serve the City’s neighborhood activity hub and surrounding residential area. The PUD will ensure a mix of residential and retail uses that can be easily accessed by internal residents as well as surrounding residents. ◢ Policy CD-2.8: Safe Design. We incorporate defensible space design into new and existing developments to ensure the maximum safe travel and visibility on pathways, corridors, and open space and at building entrances and parking areas by avoiding physically and visually isolated spaces, maintaining visibility and accessibility, and using lighting. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD provides for secure development through the placement of walls and fences between the PUD area, public roadways, and adjacent residential communities. Additionally, the PUD encourages the placement of pedestrian walkways in highly visible areas as well as the use of shielded exterior lighting fixtures. PUD standards allow for the visibility of access points from public vantage points while using secure barriers to prevent unauthorized entry. ◢ Policy CD-2.9: Landscape Design. We encourage durable, sustainable, and drought-tolerant landscaping materials and designs that enhance the aesthetics of structures, create and define public and private spaces, and provide shade and environmental benefits. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD requires the creation of a Landscape Plan which would be consistent with City regulations and would provide for the usage of native and drought-resistant foliage. 5 2332
WATERMARKE ONTARIO PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
◢ Policy CD-2.10: Parking Areas. We require all development, including single-family residential, to minimize the visual impact of surface, structured, and garage parking areas visible from the public realm in an aesthetically pleasing, safe and environmentally sensitive manner. Examples include:
1. Surface parking: Shade trees, pervious surfaces, urban run-off capture and infiltration, and pedestrian paths to guide users through the parking field.
2. Structured parking: facade articulation, screening, appropriate lighting, and landscaping.
3. Garage parking: providing access to single-family residential garages through alley access, recessing garages from the frontage to emphasize front doors or active living spaces.
◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD would require parking areas to be shielded from public view through the placement of parking away from public roadways and behind buildings. PUD standards require adequate lighting for all common areas, including parking areas, and the landscaping of all areas which do not have improvements. The Project proposes a central parking structure inset within the PUD area. ◢ Policy CD-2.11: Entry Statements. We encourage the inclusion of amenities, signage, and landscaping at the entry to neighborhoods, commercial centers, mixed use areas, industrial developments, and public places that reinforce them as uniquely identifiable places. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD would require the development of private open space amenities for residents of the PUD area as well as a clearly noted and unique frontage along Fourth Street.
Goal CD-3: Vibrant urban environments that are organized around intense buildings, pedestrian and transit areas, public plazas, and linkages between and within developments that are conveniently located, visually appealing and safe during all hours. ◢ Policy CD-3.1: Unique Identity. We promote development that heightens the unique character and identity of each Place Type by requiring compatible land uses and land planning, site design, and building design that promotes an active public realm. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD would encourage a sense of place by implementing design standards which provide for consistent building orientation and architectural guidelines. Additionally, the PUD provides for the creation of pedestrian accessways that allow for human scale development.
◢ Policy CD-3.4: Context-Aware and Appropriate Design. We require appropriate building and site design that complements existing development, respects the intent and identity of the Place Type, and provides appropriate transitions and connections between adjacent uses to ensure compatibility of scale, maintain an appropriate level of privacy for each use, and minimize potential conflicts. ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD establishes standards which would encourage a sense of place within the PUD area through the use of consistent landscaping and architectural design. Buffer areas are required between the PUD area and surrounding residential uses as well as walls which further limit visibility between internal and external residents. ◢ Policy CD-3.5: Active Frontages. We create lively pedestrian streetscapes by requiring primary building, business, and residential entrances, outdoor dining, and storefronts be located on ground floors adjacent to sidewalks or public spaces and designed to maximize safety, comfort, aesthetics, and the intended functionality (as defined by the Place Type). ◢ PUD Consistency. The PUD requires the enhancement of building frontages along Fourth Street frontage through the use of visually interesting architectural features and materials as well as landscaping and pedestrian accessways. Specifically, retail uses are required to present visually appealing storefronts which complement the surrounding architecture and create a distinct entryway.

Domestic water connections shall be made via the existing domestic water main running below Fourth Street along the southern portion of the PUD area.
The Project includes the placement of one domestic water meter, one domestic water master meter, and one domestic water backflow in the southern portion of the Project site. The Project includes a new recycled water meter connection along the southern portion of the site which would connect to the existing recycled water main below Fourth Street.
The Project proposes a new fire water line connection to the existing domestic water line beneath Mountain Avenue via a double check detector assembly (DCDA). The Project fire water line will follow the path of the secondary driveway and EVA lane to the PUD area’s eastern perimeter where it will continue south along the Project site perimeter. The Project fire water line will then connect to the existing domestic water main below Fourth Street via a DCDA. Multiple points of connection from the fire water line to Project structures will be made within the northern portion of the Project site. Additional fire hydrants will be placed along the southern and western portions of the Project site.
Sewer infrastructure proposed for the Project site will run along the secondary northern driveway and continue along the EVA lane before terminating at a sewer lateral on the northwester portion of the EVA lane. An additional sewer line will branch from the northern line at the secondary entrance of the central parking structure and cross the site from north to south, connecting to a proposed line below Fourth Street.
The Project proposed public sewer main below Fourth Street connecting to an existing sewer main below the intersection of Mountain Avenue and Fourth Street. Multiple sewer lateral connections will be made to the existing sewer main within the sanitary sewer easement adjacent to the eastern border of the Project site. The existing sewer main runs north-south along the Project site before transitioning east between Harvard Place and Fourth Street. Multiple laterals placed along the proposed and existing sewer facilities will form connections to each unit and retail use.
Developments within the PUD area shall provide on-site stormwater drainage facilities which comply with the San Bernardino County Stormwater Program’s Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) requirements. These facilities may include vegetated swales, depressed landscaped basins, pervious concrete pavement, and underground stormwater retention/infiltration vaults. All proposed Development Plans must prepare a Preliminary Water Quality Management Plan to ensure water quality management.

Solid Waste
Individual refuse containers should be provided for each residential unit and collected in group waste bins within trash enclosures for pickup by City Integrated Waste Department. Refuse and recyclable materials collection facilities shall be designed consistent with the City’s Building and Development Code and shall be designed to be consistent with the overall theme of the surrounding PUD area, including materials and aesthetic elements of both the specific area and the overall PUD area. Trash enclosures should be placed throughout the site to allow for waste collection and shall be shielded from pedestrian view. The PUD roadways shall be designed to allow for utility service vehicles (such as waste collection vehicles) to enter and exit the site via Mountain Avenue.
All refuse enclosures shall be located on major drives aisles within developments to achieve adequate circulation for refuse vehicles. Enclosures must be designed so that refuse and recycling containers may be accessed by the generator and serviced by the service provider without moving other bins. To encourage recycling, enclosures designed for a maximum of one (1) bin are prohibited.
All Priority Land Use (PLU) areas (areas which include mixed uses containing residential densities of at least 10 dwelling units per acre) within this Development Plan shall comply with the statewide Trash Provisions adopted by the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) and trash requirements in the most current San Bernardino County Area-Wide MS4 Permit.
Individual refuse and recyclable materials collection pick up and storage locations have been designed for the project. Trash and recycling bins shall be provided for each unit. Two residential trash rooms will be placed in the northeast and southwest corner of the parking structure. First floor residents are able to dispose of their trash in either of these rooms. Each subsequent floor of the residential structure will have access to garbage chutes also located in the northeast and southwest corner of the parking structure. These chutes deposit refuse directly into the first-floor trash rooms.
A retail trash enclosure is also provided in the southwest corner of the central parking structure.
Scout trucks will be used to consistently monitor trash levels and transfer full containers to the main trash enclosure on the north side of the PUD area. The bins within the trash enclosure will be picked up by the City’s Integrated Waste Department. The City’s Integrated Waste Department will utilize the secondary northern driveway as site access. This process of trash retrieval will be shielded from view will be made efficient through the creation of a truck access lane attached to the secondary entrance driveway. 17 2344

WATERMARKE ONTARIO PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
DESIGN GUIDELINES
The following design guidelines are intended as a reference to assist the designer in understanding the City’s goals and objectives for high quality commercial development. The guidelines contained here are consistent with the standards presented in Table 1: Applicable Development Standards above.
The design guidelines provided in this section are designed to be compatible with the vision of the Mixed-Use Neighborhood Activity Hub and provide site specific guidance for the development of the project area. The design guidelines in this PUD are intended to provide direction to developments within the PUD area. The guidelines will be utilized during the City’s development review process to encourage the highest level of design quality, while at the same time providing the flexibility necessary to encourage creativity on the part of the project designer(s).
Building Orientation
Building frontages shall be oriented towards Fourth Street. Frontages should be enhanced with entry elements, interesting architecture, enhanced materials, and pedestrian scale to provide connection between the development and the street. Fourth Street shall provide primary access to the site with Mountain Avenue acting as a secondary access point. Retail uses developed within the PUD area shall have entrances oriented toward Fourth Street. Indoor residential amenities (e.g., gyms and common areas) may be oriented towards interior pedestrian open spaces.
The Project will consist of one large multifamily building with integrated retail and parking uses. The Project will be developed as a wrapped style development with one central multilevel parking structure surrounded on all sides by residential units, retail uses, and amenities.
The building will be developed with inset amenity spaces, courtyards, and additional pedestrian accessways. This will allow a natural, organic buffer to occur between the building and any surrounding roadway or development. Each side of the building will be designed to be aesthetically pleasing to any passersby; however, the main side will be oriented toward Fourth Street. The rear entry, adjacent to Mountain Avenue, will be a secondary elevation/frontage. Residential units will have their entryways oriented toward the inside of the complex with balconies and windows facing the exterior of the complex. Pathways to each unit will also be placed within the complex and connect with separate pedestrian pathways that lead to external portions of the complex. 29 2356
WATERMARKE ONTARIO PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT
Setbacks
Buildings within the PUD area shall maintain a minimum setback of 10 feet from the front and interior side PUD area boundaries. Additionally, buildings within the PUD area shall maintain a minimum setback of 10 feet from adjacent arterial, collector, and local streets.
Landscaping shall be used within each setback to soften each building’s appearance as well as designed with windows or design elements.
The use of a 10-foot setback for the sides of buildings adjacent to adjacent residentially zoned parcels would allow for a softer transition to nearby residential uses.
The Project will maintain a minimum setback of 10 feet for front, side, and all street setbacks. All unimproved setback areas within the Project area will be landscaped.
Architectural Character/Details
Building frontages along Fourth Street must be developed to be visually appealing with enhanced materials and landscaping. Building signage and addresses should be clearly visible from the street. Residential and Non-Residential land uses should be visually distinguishable from each other while maintaining an overall theme with the building frontage through the use of similar materials and color palette.
Buildings within the PUD area should be designed so that each side of the building is visually consistent within itself while not needing to be consistent with other sides. However, the complimentary usage of materials and color pallets should be implemented to ensure unity among each side of the building.
The Project’s main building will include a break in design between the first floor and the remaining floors to create a natural separation between the mixed uses present on the ground floor and the residential uses in subsequent floors. The overall building will be designed in a contemporary modern style with aesthetically pleasing geometric symmetry between features and units as well a mixture of materials and colors.
Architectural variety will also be used in each façade through a blending of materials including cement board tiles and stone veneer and balconies with metal panel railings. Each level beyond the first story will be expanded beyond the footprint of the first level.
Important or unique portions of the building (such as the retail use or leasing office) will be emphasized through an expanded footprint and large glass frontages. The extended footprint will terminate at the third story and provide differentiation of the points of interest from the remaining residential units. The retail and leasing office will also act as the building frontage, with both on either side of the main entryway.

Massing and Scale
Parking areas should be inset within the PUD area and placed behind buildings. Parking areas within the PUD area shall be a maximum of two stories higher than the nearest residential building.
Taller structures should be centered within the PUD area, with shorter structures developed along the perimeter of the PUD area and the tallest structure at the center of the PUD area. Shorter structures shall not be placed behind taller structures along roadway adjacent portions of the site. This will allow for adequate shielding form views along public roadways. No buildings shall exceed a maximum height of 65 feet, inclusive of rooftop utility facilities and attachments.
Buildings shall not be placed continuously along the entirety of the PUD perimeter. The PUD perimeter shall be broken up with buildings, landscaping, courtyards, and other pedestrian features in order to encourage visual dynamism.
Material and/or color variations should be applied to building facades based on internal architecture. For example, balconies and stairwells should vary in design from the outer walls of residential or retail uses. These variations should be implemented through the use of complimentary materials and colors.
First story developments should be distinguishable from subsequent stories along each building through the use of separate, but complimentary design features such as materials and colors.
The Project will be developed as a wrapped mixed use apartment complex with a single building encircling a central multi-level parking structure. All unit entries will be accessed within a central hallway and around internal courtyards within the site and around centralized amenity spaces within the lot. All four levels of the mixed use building will present the same footprint, with the only variance being a reduced footprint for third and fourth floor units directly above the leasing office and retail use. Third floor balconies will be extended to create overhangs adjacent to the western portion of Courtyard 1 and above the leasing office and retail use.
The central parking structure will be six stories in the center of the apartment complex. The parking structure will extend beyond the overall height of the residential structures but will not expand the overall footprint. The Project’s proposed central parking structure will be the tallest building on the Project site with an approximate 63-foot elevation. Ground level amenities will be within interior courtyards and along the outer perimeter of the main building. These amenities are intended to be accessed with minimal walls/structures blocking access to the facilities.
Each building and amenity is designed to be accessed via pedestrian travel with vehicular access capability limited to the entry driveways and the central parking structure. Emergency vehicles may also utilize the EVA running between the Mountain Avenue entrance to Harvard Place.

Materials and Color
Materials used within the PUD area should exhibit permanence and quality, thematically unifying a building’s appearance on all sides; materials and colors should accentuate the architectural details of the building and promote visual harmony. Brick, tile, pre-cast architectural concrete, wood, stone veneers, metal grating, or stucco are preferred.
Multiple materials and colors should be used on each building façade to create a sense of visual dynamism and interest.
Materials and colors present in the Project will consist of a blending of naturally occurring colors found in organic landscaping components as well as complimentary earth tones to create a bright, visually appealing and modern structure.

LANDSCAPE STANDARDS
A conceptual landscape plan shall be submitted along with the Development Plan for any project within the PUD area for review by the City Landscape Planning Division. The plan shall specify all landscaping and hardscape for the entire project site. Detailed Landscape and Irrigation Plans shall be required prior to the issuance of building permits. The detailed plans shall show location of ground mounted utility boxes and equipment, along with the methods of screening for these items from the public right-of-way and adjacent residences where possible. The irrigation system shall be designed to utilize recycled water pursuant to State and local codes, ordinances, and laws, and applicable building and plumbing codes.
The Landscape Plan should support and enhance the mixture of retail and residential uses within the PUD area. Landscaping within the PUD area should be used to accentuate transitions from adjacent uses, define circulation patterns within the PUD area, screen parking areas from the street, highlight entries, provide shade for parking areas and outdoor seating areas, and to soften the appearance of any buildings.
Landscaping shall be completed for any setback areas from public roadways and internal communal or gathering spaces, excluding areas devoted to building area, paving, and/or outdoor loading and storage areas that are screened from public view.
The Project’s building design creates a series of open courtyards between each wing of the building providing a private, attractive open space area for the tenants use. These spaces are further enhanced with distinctive planting, landscape and amenity features, making them unique and enjoyable to the residents. The planting palette for the Project was chosen to establish a strong, memorable landscape while also providing a buffer between the PUD area and external uses. Exciting recreational structures and well landscaped pathways lead and invite residents to enjoy the central open space amenities or create a convenient walking path for evening exercise. 36 2363
