THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

Maintain the Current High Level of Public Safety
FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this action.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

For the twentieth consecutive year, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has announced September as National Preparedness Month (NPM).

The goal of NPM is to build awareness and encourage the whole community to prepare for emergencies in their homes, businesses, schools, workplaces, and communities. NPM is managed and sponsored by FEMA's Ready Campaign. The Ready Campaign works closely with Citizens Corps to increase national readiness across the nation. National Preparedness Month is an opportunity for all residents and business owners to build preparedness skills to increase resiliency.

Residents and businesses are encouraged to help their families and neighbors to prepare by: 1) creating a communication plan; 2) planning for transportation needs; and 3) planning for food, water, and essentials for themselves and pets. All residents are encouraged to visit the www.ReadyOntario.com website to learn more and ﬁnd resources to make these three actions simple and easy to do. During this month, residents and businesses are reminded to register their cell phones with AlertOntario, the City's emergency notiﬁcation system, by texting "ONTARIO" to 888777 and visit the www.ReadyOntario.com website for trainings and resources. 11 PROCLAMATION OF SEPTEMBER 2024

AS NATIONAL PREPAREDNESS MONTH
WHEREAS, the City of Ontario is committed to ensuring the safety and security of all those living and visiting the city, and is dedicated to raising the awareness of all employees, residents, schools, and businesses about the importance of being prepared for potential disasters; and

WHEREAS, the City of Ontario is proud to join with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in this nationwide effort and pledge their support for emergency preparedness by encouraging everyone, especially our older adults, in the community to create an emergency plan for themselves and their family and friends, to equip themselves with the necessary supplies to care for themselves and their families for at least 72 hours, to register themselves and their family for the mass notification tool AlertOntario, and become informed about the different threats that may affect them; NOW, THEREFORE, the City of Ontario, its City Council and staff members do declare the month of September 2024 as:

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

FISCAL IMPACT:

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The National Council on Aging (NCOA) has recognized the month of September as National Senior Center Month. To commemorate, organizations and individuals alike will celebrate and promote a positive image of aging and show how senior centers improve the lives of older adults. This month serves as an opportunity to encourage older residents to explore events and programming oﬀered by the Ontario Senior Center. This year's NCOA theme, "Powering Connections”, highlights the vital role senior centers play in enhancing the lives of older adults by fostering guidance, education, support, and community. The Ontario Senior Center provides a welcoming and inclusive space of programs, services, and events to build meaningful connections.

This month, the Recreation & Community Services Department will use social media to spotlight the Ontario Senior Center and the active senior community that enjoys all the center's oﬀerings. The "Our House, Ontario Senior Center" social media campaign will showcase how the center is a second home to all who visit by highlighting the facility, specialty programs, and community members. The department is excited to share the opportunities for building connections and forming lasting friendships at the Ontario Senior Center.

With the approval of Measure Q, the Senior Center's operating hours will be extended to 8am to 8pm from Monday to Friday, and from 8am to 12pm on Saturdays, starting in December. Additionally, we are pleased to announce that we have received a grant from OmniTrans, enabling us to expand our transportation services to include grocery shopping and non-emergency medical appointments.
13 This National Senior Center Month let’s celebrate the many ways senior centers create a sense of connection. Together, we can demonstrate the signiﬁcant ways these spaces are Powering
Connections
. Residents can learn more about the Ontario Senior Center by visiting www.OntarioCA.gov/Recreation or by contacting the center directly at (909) 395-2021.

The Recreation & Parks Commission met on August 26, 2024 and voted 6-0 to recommend this proclamation to City Council.

And call upon all citizens to recognize the special contributions of the senior center participants and the special efforts of the staff and volunteers who work every day to enhance the well-being of the older citizens of our community.

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

Pursue City's Goals and Objectives by Working with Other Governmental Agencies Invest in the City's Infrastructure (Water, Streets, Sewers, Parks, Storm Drains and Public Facilities)
FISCAL IMPACT:

The City, through the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) Fiscal Year 2023 Safe Street and Roads for All (SS4A) Grant Program, has been awarded $360,000 to develop a Citywide Safety Action Plan.

The City will be reimbursed 80% of the costs associated with the development of a Citywide Safety Action Plan; a total reimbursement of $360,000. The required 20% match of $90,000 will be funded from the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA-SB1) fund balance. Upon approval, additional appropriations from the RMRA-SB1 fund and associated grant revenue will be included in a subsequent quarterly budget report to the City Council as needed.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

The City has been awarded funding in the amount of $360,000 from the USDOT for the SS4A Discretionary Grant Opportunity to create a comprehensive Citywide Safety Action Plan. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) established the SS4A grant program which funds regional, local, and Tribal initiatives through grants to prevent roadway deaths and serious injuries.

The creation of
the Citywide Safety Action Plan will provide the underserved communities in the City of Ontario the opportunity to provide direct input to ﬁnd and tailor solutions to improve roadway safety in their neighborhood. The Action Plan will target safety improvements for all roadway users through project prioritization, safety analysis, and community-based feedback and engagement. The plan will address safety topics including transportation insecurity, social and health vulnerabilities, and climate resilience with the goal of preventing future roadway death and serious injury. 20 1 of 19

In accordance with 2 CFR 200.308(c)(6), unless desc ribed in the application and funded in the approved award, the Recipient must obtain prior written appr oval from the AO for the subaward, transfer, or contracting out of any work under this award above the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. This provision does not apply to the acquisition of supplies, mate rial, equipment, or general support services. Appro val will be issued through written notification from the AO or a formal amendment to the Agreement.

2. Supporting Narrative.

The 2022 Ontario Community Climate Action Plan (2022 CCAP), adopted unanimously by the City Council on August 16, 2022, is the strategic plan for how the City of Ontario (City) will reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and foster a sustainable community through 2050 and beyond. Reductions related to transportation, water, solid waste, offroad equipment, energy, and renewable energy sources all play a crucial part in gaining the level of efficiency needed within the new development across Ontario. GHG emissions have long-term, cumulative impacts on the climate, both locally and globally

The majority of Census Tracts that have been identified as disadvantaged in the City of Ontario are in the central downtown district along Mission Boulevard and Euclid Avenue as well as the commercial and industrial districts adjacent to Ontario International Airport and in northeast Ontario along the Interstate 10 and 15 corridors. A significant percentage of residents in Ontario have experienced climate and environmental burden inequities due to pollution, which include high levels of particulate matter (PM) in the air and the proximity to hazardous waste sites in the City’s industrial zones. Therefore, the City of Ontario Citywide Safety Action Plan will target the safety needs and equity disadvantages of vulnerable communities within the City where fatal and severe collisions most frequently occur. As capital improvement projects are developed, based on the Citywide Safety Action Plan, consideration shall be given to the potential reduction of GHG, and compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requirements. 35 16 of 19

AN ORDINANCE APPROVING A SPECIFIC PLAN (FILE NO. PSP22-001 - EUCLID

MIXED USE SPECIFIC PLAN)

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
September
3, 2024
SECTION:

CONSENT CALENDAR

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council
consider and adopt an Ordinance approving the Euclid
Mixed Use Specific Plan (File No. PSP22-001).

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:

Invest in the Growth and Evolution of the City's Economy Invest in the City's Infrastructure (Water, Streets, Sewers, Parks, Storm Drains and Public Facilities)
Ensure the Development of a Well Planned, Balanced, and Self-Sustaining Community in Ontario Ranch
FISCAL IMPACT:

Adoption of the Euclid Mixed Use Speciﬁc Plan (EMUSP) would result in both short- and long-term ﬁscal impacts to the City. Short-term impacts include infrastructure improvements to serve the new Business Park and Mixed-Use development. The cost of these improvements is included in the Nexus Study and Development Impact Fees previously adopted by the City Council.

The developer will be required to install improvements or pay the Development Impact Fees ("DIF") associated with the various improvements. Long-term ﬁscal impacts include the ongoing operations and maintenance services (police, ﬁre, maintenance, etc.) necessary to serve the new development. While the development will result in potential increased property tax revenue, the increase is not suﬃcient to cover the cost of services associated with the project. To address the shortfall, the developer will be required to form and/or join a Community Facilities District ("CFD") to cover the additional public service costs. No Original Model Colony dollars will be used to fund this Ontario Ranch development.

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS:

On August 20, 2024, the City Council introduced and waived further reading of an Ordinance approving the Euclid Mixed Use Speciﬁc Plan. The Ontario Plan 2050 (TOP 2050) Policy Plan (General Plan) provides the basic framework for development within the 8,200- acre area commonly referred to as Ontario Ranch. The Policy Plan requires City Council approval of a Speciﬁc Plan for new developments within Ontario Ranch, to ensure that suﬃcient land area is 100
included to achieve cohesive, uniﬁed districts and neighborhoods. Additionally, a Speciﬁc Plan is required to incorporate a development framework that details land use, circulation, infrastructure improvements (such as drainage, sewer, and water facilities), provision for public services, and urban and design landscape standards.

The Euclid Mixed Use Speciﬁc Plan (EMUSP) area is 84 acres in size and bordered by Schaefer Avenue to the north, Sultana Avenue to the east, Edison Avenue to the south and Euclid Avenue to the west.

The EMUSP establishes a comprehensive set of design guidelines and development regulations to guide and regulate site planning, landscape, and architectural character, and ensuring that excellence in community design is achieved during Project development. The EMUSP establishes the procedures and requirements to approve new development within the Project site to ensure the Policy Plan goals and policies are achieved.

Land Use Plan
- The EMUSP consists of ﬁve Planning Areas that will accommodate business park, light industrial, commercial, oﬃce and residential uses. The Land Use Plan implements the vision of TOP 2050 by providing opportunities for employment in warehousing, research and development, service, professional oﬃce, and supporting retail at intensities designed to meet the demand of current and future market conditions.

The EMUSP land use intensity anticipated in the ﬁve proposed planning areas (see Exhibit B: Land Use Plan) is consistent with TOP 2050. The EMUSP proposes a maximum 0.6 Floor-Area Ratio (FAR) within the Business Park land use district (Planning Areas 1, 2A and 2B); and 1.5 FAR for oﬃce uses,

1.0 FAR for retail uses and 35 DU/AC for residential uses within the Mixed-Use land use district (Planning Areas 3A and 3B). The proposed overall FARs and residential density for the EMUSP are consistent with the TOP 2050 Policy Plan Land Use designations for Business Park and Mixed Use – Great Park.

The EMUSP proposes the potential development of up to 1,676,886 square feet of business park, oﬃce and retail development, and 466 dwelling units. Planning Areas 1 and 2 are approximately

53.06 acres in size and can potentially be developed with 1,386,776 square feet of business park space. Planning Area 3 is approximately 19.03 acres in size and is anticipated to be developed with up to 290,110 square feet of oﬃce and retail space, and 466 dwelling units. Planning Areas 4 and 5 are 6.28 acres and 5.73 acres both include the extension of existing Southern California Edison transmission lines and are designated as non-recreational open space.

Design Guidelines
- The design theme and concept for the project was created to ensure a high- quality, attractive and cohesive design structure for the EMUSP. The guidelines provide the following objectives for all future development within the EMUSP area.

Demonstrates high-quality development that complements and integrates into the community and adds value to the City.

Creates a functional and sustainable place that ensures EMUSP is competitive regionally and appropriate in the Ontario Ranch community.

Illustrates the distinctive characteristics of the three land use districts: Business Park, Mixed 101
Use and Open Space – Nonrecreational.

Establishes criteria for building design and materials, landscape design, and site design that provide guidance to developers, buildings, architects, landscape architects, and other professionals preparing plans for construction.

Provides guidance to City staﬀ and the Planning Commission in the review and evaluation of future development projects in the EMUSP area.

Incorporates construction and landscape design standards that promote energy and water conservation strategies.

Implements the goals and policies of TOP 2050 and the intent of the Ontario Development Code.

The Design Guidelines have been established to promote high-quality architecture as required by the Ontario Development Code and TOP 2050. The proposed architectural theme of the EMUSP incorporates a Contemporary Architectural style, and the planning areas will be designed to be compatible with and complement one another. The EMUSP provides examples of the type of business park and mixed-use concepts that are envisioned to be constructed within the Speciﬁc Plan.

The EMUSP requires all buildings to be designed to highlight the primary entryways by incorporating special materials, visual relief, massing and shading. Additionally, the facades that front onto a public street must incorporate vertical and horizontal articulation and material changes that will assist in enhancing these elevations and providing visual interest from the public view.

Circulation Concept
- The circulation plan reinforces the objective of moving vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, and public transit safely and eﬃciently through and around the Project and establishes the hierarchy and general location of roadways in and around the project boundary .

Future traffic signals are planned at the following intersections.

Schaefer & Sultana (future) Avenues
Edison & Sultana (future) Avenues
Schaefer Avenue – between Euclid and Sultana Avenues
Edison Avenue – between Euclid and Sultana Avenues
Euclid Avenue – between Schaefer and Edison Avenues

Primary access to developments within the EMUSP area will be provided along the perimeter streets of Schaefer, Sultana (future), Edison and Euclid Avenues. Final right-of-way section improvements along these streets are provided in the EMUSP and are consistent with the City’s Master Plan of Streets. Euclid Avenue right-of-way will be 200 feet wide, while Edison Avenue will be 160 feet wide. Euclid and Edison Avenues will have 4 lanes in each direction, with raised medians that are 66 FT-wide and 26 FT-wide, respectively. Schaefer Avenue is planned to be 108 feet wide with 2 lanes in each direction, and no raised median. Sultana Avenue is categorized as a local industrial street with 66 feet wide right-of-way.

Each street will include a parkway, sidewalk and landscape buﬀer. Euclid, Edison and Schaefer 102
Avenues will also be designed with a multi-purpose trail within the neighborhood edge, however the trail on Edison Avenue is planned on the south side of the street and will be addressed in a different specific plan.

Landscaping
- The landscape design theme for EMUSP encourages durable landscape materials and designs that enhance the aesthetics of the structures, create and deﬁne public and private spaces, and provide shade and environmental beneﬁts. Table 5.1 in the EMUSP establishes a base palette and includes a variety of groundcovers, shrubs, ornamental grasses, and evergreen and deciduous trees. The selection complements the design theme of the EMUSP area and features water-eﬃcient, drought-tolerant species native to the region. Similar plant materials may be substituted for the species listed in Table 5.1 – Plant Palette if the alternative plans are climate appropriate and enhance the thematic setting.

The minimum landscape coverage required for both Business Park and Mixed-use land use districts is 10 percent. As illustrated in Section 5.13 – Streetscapes of the Speciﬁc Plan, Euclid Avenue will be required to provide a 50-foot-wide neighborhood edge (15-foot-wide parkway plus an additional 35-foot-wide landscape buﬀer). Edison and Schaefer Avenues will be required to provide a 23-foot- wide landscape buﬀer. Sultana will be designed with a nine-foot-wide parkway that includes a ﬁve- foot-wide sidewalk and a four-foot-wide landscape area adjacent to the curb.

Infrastructure and Services
– The backbone infrastructure to serve all areas of the EMUSP will be installed by the developers in accordance with the Ontario Ranch Master Plans for streets, water (including recycled water), sewer, storm drain, and ﬁber optic facilities. Natural gas will be provided by Southern California Gas Company and electricity by Southern California Edison (“SCE”).

Development of the Project requires that the developer install all infrastructure necessary to serve the Project as a standalone development, with phasing and ultimate details to be reviewed and approved via the Development Agreement (File No. PDA23-004).

Speciﬁc Plan Phasing
– Development phasing within the EMUSP will be determined by the developer, based upon the real estate market conditions, infrastructure extensions, and associated Development Agreements. The EMUSP provides a Conceptual Phasing Plan and anticipated development to occur in at least two phases (see Exhibit E: Conceptual Phasing Plan). The Applicant is an interest holder of the Phase 1 area, and therefore is pursuing the associated proposed Tentative Parcel Map (File No. PMTT23-005) and Development Plan (File No. PDEV23-011) applications that the Planning Commission considered at a public hearing on July 23, 2024, and voted (6-0) to approve. The properties within the Phase 2 area are under diﬀerent ownerships and no development is currently proposed for these properties.

Signage
– The Euclid Mixed Use Speciﬁc Plan requires that signage within the Speciﬁc Plan area adhere to Section 5.2.2.5 (Signage) of the Euclid Mixed Use Speciﬁc Plan and comply with Chapter 8 (Sign Regulations) of the Development Code.

COMPLIANCE WITH THE ONTARIO PLAN:

The proposed Project is consistent with the principles, goals and policies contained within the Vision, Governance, Policy Plan (General Plan), and City Council Priorities components of The Ontario Plan 2050.

103
The California Government Code (Title 7, Division 1, Chapter 3, Article 8, Section 65450-65457) permits the adoption and administration of speciﬁc plans as an implementation tool for elements contained in the local General Plan. Speciﬁc plans must demonstrate consistency in regulations, guidelines, and programs, with the goals and policies set forth in the General Plan. The EMUSP
has
been prepared in conformance with the goals and policies of the Policy Plan (General Plan) component of The Ontario Plan 2050. The policy analysis in Chapter 7 of the Speciﬁc Plan describes the manner in which the
EMUSP
complies with the Policy Plan goals and policies.

HOUSING ELEMENT COMPLIANCE:

The Project is consistent with the Housing Element of the Policy Plan (General Plan) component of The Ontario Plan 2050. The Project site is one of the properties listed in the Housing Element Sites Inventory contained in Tables B-1 and B-2 of the Housing Element Technical Report, and the proposed Project is consistent with the number of dwelling units (466) and density (35 du/ac) specified in the Housing Element Sites Inventory.

AIRPORT LAND USE COMPATIBILITY PLAN (ALUCP) COMPLIANCE:

On April 19, 2011, the City Council of the City of Ontario approved and adopted the ONT ALUCP, 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 recommending body for File No.

PSP22-001 and the decision-making body for File Nos. PMTT23-005 and PDEV23-011, 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, therefore, 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.

On August 2, 2022, the City Council of the City of Ontario approved and adopted a Development Code Amendment to establish the Chino Airport ("CNO") Overlay Zoning District ("OZD") and Reference I, Chino Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan ("CNO ALUCP"). The CNO OZD and CNO ALUCP established the Airport Inﬂuence Area for Chino Airport, solely within the City of Ontario, and limits future land uses and development within the Airport Inﬂuence Area, as they relate to safety, airspace protection, and overﬂight impacts of current and future airport activity. The CNO ALUCP is consistent with policies and criteria set forth within the Caltrans 2011 California Airport Land Use Planning Handbook. The proposed Project is located within the Airport Inﬂuence Area of Chino Airport and was evaluated and found to be consistent with the California Airport Land Use Planning Handbook and the CNO ALUCP. As the decision-making body for File No. PSP22-001 and the decision-making body for File Nos. PMTT23-005 and PDEV23-011, the City Council has reviewed 104
and considered the facts and information contained in the Application and supporting documentation against the CNO ALUCP compatibility factors, including Safety, Airspace Protection and Overﬂight. As a result, the City Council, therefore, 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 California Airport Land Use Planning Handbook and the Chino ALUCP.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

The Speciﬁc Plan is located in what was formerly the City of Ontario Sphere of Inﬂuence (“SOI”) area, which consists of roughly 8,200 acres at the south end of the City.

On January 7,1998, the City of Ontario adopted the New Model Colony (“NMC”) General Plan Amendment, setting forth a comprehensive strategy for the future development of the SOI. The NMC is bounded by Riverside Drive to the north, Hamner Avenue to the east, Euclid Avenue to the west, and Merrill Avenue/Bellegrave to the south.

Since the adoption of the NMC General Plan Amendment, the City has updated the General Plan on diﬀerent occasions. On January 27, 2010, the City adopted The Ontario Plan and certiﬁed the accompanying Environmental Impact Report (SCH# 2008101140). On August 16, 2022, the City adopted The Ontario Plan 2050 (TOP 2050), which was an update to The Ontario Plan adopted in 2010 and included the certiﬁcation of an accompanying Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SCH# 2021070364). The Policy Plan component of TOP 2050 serves as the General Plan for the entire City, including the NMC (now referred to as “Ontario Ranch”). TOP 2050 identiﬁed many areas that might have potentially signiﬁcant impacts on the environment. These areas included 1) Aesthetics; 2) Biological Resources; 3) Geology and Soils; 4) Hazards and Hazardous Materials; 5) Hydrology and Water Quality; 6) Land Use and Planning; 7) Mineral Resources; 8) Population and Housing; 9) Public Services; 10) Recreation; and 11) Utilities and Service systems. Through the EIR process, these potential impacts were analyzed, revisions were incorporated into the plan, and/or mitigation measures were identiﬁed that reduced the potential environmental impacts to a level that was less than significant.

TOP 2050 also identiﬁed several potential impacts that, even with revisions and/or mitigation measures, could not be reduced to a level of less than signiﬁcant. These areas included Air Quality, Cultural Resources, Noise, and Transportation. While these impacts will be signiﬁcant and unavoidable, the City determined that the beneﬁts of the Ontario Ranch development outweigh the potential unavoidable, adverse impacts of the plan. As a result, the City adopted a Statement of Overriding Considerations for those impacts that could not be fully mitigated to a level of less than significant.

The TOP 2050 EIR analyses focused on the program, or “big picture” impacts associated with development. With the submittal of the
EMUSP
, staﬀ is charged with evaluating the potential
impacts of development at the project level, looking speciﬁcally at the project proposal and any potential environmental impacts associated with it. Staﬀ completed an Initial Study for the Project and determined that an EIR should be prepared for the
EMUSP
. Through the Initial Study
preparation and scoping meeting discussion, an EIR was prepared for the EMUSP
addressing the
following issues:

Aesthetics
Agricultural and Forestry Resource
105
Air Quality Biological Resources
Cultural Resources
Energy
Geology and Soils
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Hazards and Hazardous Materials
Hydrology and Water Quality
Land Use and Planning
Noise
Population and Housing
Public Services
Transportation
Tribal Cultural Resources
Utilities and Service Systems

The
EMUSP
EIR evaluates each of these various areas and identiﬁes mitigation measures and/or revisions to the plan to lessen the level of signiﬁcance. The EIR analyzed EMUSP
Phase 1 based on
the proposed
EMUSP
land uses, development intensities, conceptual designs, infrastructure requirements, and onsite surveys and studies. However, access to properties within Phase 2 could not be obtained and, therefore, the level of impact cannot be known for categories such as Biological Resources, Geology and Soils, and Hazards and Hazardous Materials since onsite surveys could not be conducted. It is conceivable that, when development of Phase 2 is proposed and onsite access is obtained, the potentially signiﬁcant impacts on Biological Resources, Geology and Soils, and Hazards and Hazardous Materials in Phase 2 can be mitigated to less than signiﬁcant.

Nevertheless, since level of impact cannot be known for Phase 2 areas at this time, the EMUSP
EIR
conservatively concludes that there are significant and unavoidable impacts.

With the implementation of the various mitigation measures, many of the potential adverse impacts can be reduced to a level of less than signiﬁcant. Of the 17 areas considered by the EIR, all but seven areas were less than signiﬁcant or mitigated to a level of less than signiﬁcant. The seven remaining impact areas, even with the mitigation measures, could not be reduced to less than signiﬁcant, resulting in some impacts remaining potentially signiﬁcant and unavoidable. These areas are:

Agricultural and Forestry Resources
Air Quality
Biological Resources (Phase 2 only)
Cultural Resources
Geology and Soils (Phase 2 only)
Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Hazards and Hazardous Materials (Phase 2 only)

While mitigation of all potential impacts to a level of less than signiﬁcant is desirable, the fact that seven areas will remain signiﬁcant and unavoidable is not unexpected. The identiﬁcation of these areas as signiﬁcant and unavoidable also validates the work previously completed for TOP 2050.

Staﬀ continues to believe that the beneﬁts of the proposed development outweigh the potential 106
impacts associated with it. Therefore, staﬀ recommends the Planning Commission recommend certiﬁcation of the EIR to the City Council and that a Statement of Overriding Considerations be adopted for the Project.

WHEREAS, all legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Ordinance have occurred.

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY FOUND, DETERMINED, AND ORDAINED by the City Council of the City of Ontario, as follows:

SECTION 1: Environmental Determination and Findings. As the decision- making body for the Project, the City Council has reviewed and considered the information contained in the EIR, MMRP, and Statement of Overriding Considerations prepared for the Project and supporting documentation. Based upon the facts and information contained in the EIR (State Clearinghouse No. 2023020281) and the administrative record, including all written and oral evidence presented to the City Council, the City Council finds as follows:
(1) The Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan EIR, MMRP, and Statement of Overriding Considerations contain a complete and accurate reporting of the environmental impacts associated with the Project; and
(2) The Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan EIR, MMRP, and Statement of Overriding Considerations have been completed in compliance with CEQA, the State CEQA Guidelines and the City of Ontario Local CEQA Guidelines; and
(3) The Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan EIR, MMRP, and Statement of Overriding Considerations reflects the independent judgment of the City Council.
110
SECTION 2: 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 2050. The Project site is one of the properties listed in the Housing Element Sites Inventory contained in Tables B-1 and B-2 of the Housing Element Technical Report, and the proposed Project is consistent with the number of dwelling units (466) and density (35 du/ac) specified in the Housing Element Sites Inventory.

SECTION 3: 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.
(1) 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 decision-making 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, therefore, 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
(2) On August 2, 2022, the City Council of the City of Ontario approved and adopted a Development Code Amendment to establish the Chino Airport (“CNO”) Overlay Zoning District (“OZD”) and Reference I, Chino Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (“CNO ALUCP”). The CNO OZD and CNO ALUCP established the Airport Influence Area for Chino Airport, solely within the City of Ontario, and limits future land uses and development within the Airport Influence Area, as they relate to safety, airspace protection, and overflight impacts of current and future airport activity. The CNO ALUCP is consistent with policies and criteria set forth within the Caltrans 2011 California Airport Land Use Planning Handbook. The 111
proposed Project is located within the Airport Influence Area of Chino Airport and was evaluated and found to be consistent with the California Airport Land Use Planning Handbook and the CNO ALUCP. As the decision- making body for the Project, the City Council has reviewed and considered the facts and information contained in the Application and supporting documentation against the CNO ALUCP compatibility factors, including Safety, Airspace Protection, Overflight. As a result, the City Council, therefore, 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 California Airport Land Use Planning Handbook and the Chino ALUCP.

SECTION 4: 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 3 above, the City Council hereby concludes as follows:
(1) The proposed Specific Plan, 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 2050. The approximately 84-acre Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan is suitable for business park and mixed use development and is consistent with the goals and policies, plans and exhibits of the Vision, Policy Plan (General Plan), and City Council Priorities components of TOP 2050. “Chapter 7. Consistency with The Ontario Plan” of the Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan describes the manner in which the Specific Plan complies with the Policy Plan goals and policies; and
(2) The proposed Specific Plan, or amendment thereto, would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or general welfare of the City. The proposed Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan is in conformance with the Land Use Policies and Goals of the Policy Plan and will provide standards and guidelines for the harmonious development within the districts, in a manner consistent with the Policy Plan. The Specific Plan is proposing business park and mixed use (office, retail and residential) type development for the approximately 84-acre site, which is what is mandated by the land use plan of the Policy Plan; therefore, the proposed business park and mixed use land uses will not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or general welfare of the City because it will provide land uses that are consistent with the existing and future development of the surrounding area; and
(3) In the case of an application affecting specific property(ies), the proposed Specific Plan, or amendment thereto, will not adversely affect the harmonious relationship with adjacent properties and land uses. The proposed Specific Plan will modify the land use from agricultural, dairy farm, recreational vehicle storage, residential and vacant land uses to Business Park and Mixed Use, which aligns with surrounding land uses 112
planned in TOP 2050 and allows for similar development intensities under the Business Park and Mixed Use designation; and
(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. The proposed Specific Plan will allow for business park and mixed use on the subject site. When in conformance with the Specific Plan, the project site is suitable in size and shape, allows for sufficient access and availability of utilities to accommodate the anticipated development.

SECTION 4: City Council Action. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in Sections 1 through 3, above, the City Council hereby APPROVES the herein described Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan, attached hereto as "Attachment A," and incorporated herein by this reference, and subject to the Conditions of Approval.

INTRODUCTION

1. INTRODUCTION
Euclid Avenue can be described as the backbone of the City of Ontario (See Figure 1.1). Extending from the San Gabriel foothills to the north, Euclid Avenue was originally designed by George and William Chaffey in 1882 to be a grand boulevard constructed as part of the “Model Irrigation Colony” and was intended to connect to the southern edge of the colony at the Southern Pacific Railroad. Euclid Avenue initially provided street lights, water services and long distance telephone lines and was envisioned to include an electric railway to serve the growing community.

Today, Ontario has grown to become the identifiable center of the inland valley, with commerce and community expanding around the City’s strategic location along regional transportation routes, growing international airport, commerce and cultural amenities. Ontario is situated in the path of expanding urbanization and housing demand in the surrounding region. The project site, the Euclid Mixed-Use Property, is comprised of approximately 84 acres located along the east side of Euclid Avenue in the City of Ontario, California and establishes the west gateway to the Ontario Ranch.

Within Ontario Ranch, the City of Ontario promotes innovative land development principles to continue the legacy of the Model Colony. The City’s general plan, The Ontario Plan, envisions the Ontario Ranch area will include housing, commercial and Business Park areas, parks, recreational uses, trails and bike links.

Specific plans are required to guide development in Ontario Ranch to ensure the City objectives are achieved.

On January 26, 2010, the City of Ontario adopted The Ontario Plan, which serves as its new business plan and includes a long term vision and principle-based policy plan, essentially functioning as the General Plan for the city, including Ontario Ranch. The Ontario Plan 2050 was adopted in August 2022 as an update to the original 2010 document. The Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan is consistent with The Ontario Plan 2050.

The Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan (this “Specific Plan”) is a major “next step,” creating a specific plan to implement the vision outlined by the City of Ontario for the western portion of the Ontario Ranch area, formerly New Model Colony (
See Figure 1.2). The Ontario Ranch area covers 8,200 acres of the historic San Bernardino Agricultural Preserve, which was predominantly used for dairy or cattle farming. In 1999, the City of Ontario named its portion of the Agricultural Preserve to be the New Model Colony after the original Model Irrigation Colony.

The City’s TOP overall vision for the Ontario Ranch is to create a self-sustaining place of diversity, extending into Ontario’s existing fabric of development. The City’s TOP also envisions each neighborhood and commercial center within the Ontario Ranch as a place uniquely identifiable for its residents, employees, and visitors, united through an area-wide network of greenways, trails, open spaces, amenities, and infrastructure.

The vision for Euclid Mixed-Use is to create a gateway to the City of Ontario and to the Ontario Ranch planned community incorporating a variety of opportunities for small businesses and employment within the Business Park District and a vibrant community with a mixture of uses all connected through a series of trails providing opportunities for people to live, work and play within the Mixed-Use District of the Specific Plan.

In order to actualize this vision, a series of objectives are provided to augment policies identified within the City’s TOP . These objectives and policies are as follows:

Create a place with a Unique Identity.
• Provide a variety of quality building designs that reinforces the rich agricultural history and the high quality of development within the City.
• Provide a walkable plan that ties the future residential, retail and employment areas to surrounding support uses and open space/recreational uses including the Great Park. • Provide outdoor gathering spaces within attached residential neighborhoods, office parks and retail centers.
• Design convenient access to transit stops to encourage alternatives to vehicular commuting.

Develop a Public Realm that emphasizes Comfort, Safety and Human scale. • Establish a walkable street pattern linking living and shopping areas with public spaces and the Great Park.
• Design and plan buildings and landscaping to create inviting outdoor living areas. • Create building elevations with regular articulation and varied facade expressions.

Optimize connectivity within the Mixed Use areas within the overall Community Network. • Design streets in a grid pattern with short, walkable blocks. • Establish a street pattern as a logical extension of open space, public transit and neighborhood retail and employment.
• Encourage parking solutions such as alleys, parking courts and structured parking to minimize the visual impact of stored vehicles.

Design buildings that are appropriate and contextual.
• Create design standards for vertical and horizontal mixed use buildings to address market opportunities.
• Orient buildings toward public streets, neighborhood edges and open space areas to establish and urban neighborhood character.
• Concentrate building massing along major streets and corridors and adjacent to the Great Park and near convenient transit stops.

Create active frontages along streets and open spaces.
• Design retail buildings with storefront treatments that optimize indoor/outdoor spaces. • Orient residential front doors, porches and patios to face walkable streets and away from major streets, non-residential uses and utility lines.
• Provide visual and physical access to connect to City planned trails and bikeways.

Manage infrastructure to accommodate optimal land uses. • Coordinate the development of project infrastructure to foster future pedestrian opportunities. • Encourage the timely development of shared infrastructure within the Mixed Use District. • Facilitate development plans that provide shared parking and multi-modal access/parking within the mixed use area.

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Purpose and Intent of the Specific Plan
The Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan provides zoning regulations for the project area by establishing permitted land use, development standards, infrastructure requirements, design guidelines and implementation requirements for future development. Development regulations and design guidelines are included to guide all site planning, architectural character, and landscape treatment within the site area to ensure a standard of excellence in community design throughout project development. The Specific Plan establishes the procedures and requirements to approve new development within the project area.

The purpose of the Specific Plan is to:
• Provide a flexible planning framework that responds to changing physical and market driven aspects of future development opportunities;
• Specify a coordinated phasing of infrastructure, utilities, and public services for this area of the Ontario Ranch;
• Promote compatible uses and interfaces between adjacent properties; • Ensure the appropriate location and intensity of uses within the site area; and • Conform to State laws and local ordinances and policies in the preparation of the Specific Plan.

The intent of the Specific Plan is to:
• Create a professional, well maintained and attractive environment for the development of a vibrant Mixed-Use development along Edison Avenue and a multi-purpose business park complex. • Provide the entitlement and framework for a total of approximately 290,000 sq. ft. of office retail development and a maximum of 466 residential units.
• Provide the entitlements and framework for the development of approximately 1.39 million sq. ft. of business park uses.
• Provide employment opportunities for the surrounding community. • Facilitate the implementation of roads, utilities, and other infrastructure investments that will be sufficiently sized to serve the Specific Plan area.
• Expand Ontario’s retail, office and business park uses in proximity to local airports and regional transportation networks.
• Create an economic driver for future growth in western portion of Ontario Ranch that acts as a catalyst for the development of infrastructure improvements in the area and implementation the City‘s long term planning vision.
• Provide opportunities for residents to live, work and shop within close proximity. • Provide a logical extension of planned community trails and bike ways. 131

1.2 Specific Plan Project
This Specific Plan is the regulatory document for the Euclid Mixed-Use site area, accommodating up to 290,131 sq. ft. of commercial retail/office uses, a total of 466 residential units and 1,386,776 sq. ft. of business park uses on approximately 84.1 acres of land. The Specific Plan provides a land use plan identifying allowed uses and zoning, circulation, infrastructure, streetscape, and landscape plans; establishes allowable uses and development standards for reviewing individual projects; presents design guidelines to create a visually attractive environment; summarizes the development review process; and specifies provisions for administration and implementation of the Specific Plan and outlines its consistency with The Ontario Plan.

Location and Specific Plan Boundary
The Specific Plan area is located along the western boundary of the City of Ontario, on the NE corner of Euclid Avenue and Edison Avenue adjacent to the City of Chino ( see Figure 1.1). The Specific Plan site area is located within Ontario Ranch (see Figure 1.2). The Specific Plan area is bounded by Schaefer Avenue on the north, Sultana Avenue on the east, Edison Avenue on the south, and Euclid Avenue on the west. The Specific Plan area is currently divided into 16 separate parcels. (see Figure 1.3).

Employment Generation
At build out, the Euclid Mixed-Use is anticipated to create numerous of jobs in retail, food service, small business light manufacturing/assembly, warehousing, logistics, office, and administration. Actual job creation depends on the type of land uses ultimately developed, as a wide range of business park and Mixed-Use development such as office and retail uses are permitted within the Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan. Employment opportunities will range from entry level to highly skilled labor and will expand the City of Ontario’s employment opportunities in the region. Euclid Mixed-Use will also provide expanded opportunities for start up businesses.

Infrastructure Framework
The Specific Plan will help establish the necessary framework to enable the continued growth and development of Ontario Ranch in cooperation with adjacent property owners and developers. The Specific Plan identifies master planned water, sewer, and storm drain infrastructure required to serve the Specific Plan site area. The extent of infrastructure to be provided by Euclid Mixed-Use will be established as part of the development agreement.

Community Connectivity and Compatibility
The Specific Plan land use concept includes an internal buffer between potential sensitive Mixed-Use developments and provides an open space corridor extending from Euclid Avenue and planned residential uses located to the east of the site area. The land use concept and development regulations limit the size of buildings to 58,000 s.f. along the frontage of Euclid Avenue to ensure smaller scale buildings that are compatible with future retail and high density residential uses are developed along these sensitive edges.

INTRODUCTION

1.3 Specific Plan Requirements
The range of issues contained in a specific plan is left to the discretion of the decision-making body.

However, all specific plans must, at a minimum, address the following:
• The distribution, location, and extent of the uses of land, including open space, within the area covered by the plan.
• The proposed distribution, location, and extent and intensity of major components of public and private transportation, sewage, water, drainage, solid waste disposal, energy, and other essential facilities proposed to be located within the area covered by the plan and needed to support the land uses described in the plan.
• Standards and criteria by which development will proceed, and standards for the conservation, development, and utilization of natural resources, where applicable. • A program of implementation measures including regulations, programs, public works projects, and financing measures necessary to carry out the above identified items.

1.4 Authority and Sc ope
The Ontario Plan requires approval of a Specific Plan as the Zoning for all future development within Ontario Ranch, to ensure coordinated communities and neighborhoods and to implement the City’s goals and policies. This Specific Plan provides zoning regulations to govern development of the project site and shall take precedence over the City of Ontario Development Code. However, in instances where the Specific Plan is silent, the Development Code shall prevail.

The California Government Code (Title 7, Division 1, Chapter 3, Article 8, Sections 65450 through 65457) grants the City the authority to adopt a specific plan by ordinance. The minimum requirements of a specific plan are established by California Government Code Sections 65450 through 65457 and City of Ontario Code Sections 9-1.2100 to 9-1.2125. This Specific Plan is a regulatory document, providing land use and design guidance adopted by ordinance. Development plans, site plans, and tentative tract/parcel maps must be consistent with this Specific Plan and The Ontario Plan. The topics covered in this Specific Plan include land use, infrastructure, development standards, design guidelines, and implementation requirements.

1.5 California Environmental Quality Act Compliance
The Specific Plan is a discretionary project and is subject to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Pursuant to State and local CEQA guidelines, an Environmental Impact Report addressing the impacts associated with the development of the project must be certified by the City prior to approval of the Specific Plan.

2. EXIS TING CONDITIONS
The following section documents the existing conditions including current development, airport influence areas, Williamson Act contracts, land use and zoning, existing circulation, and environmental conditions.

2.1 Existing Land Uses and Improvements
The Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan and surrounding areas area are transitioning from agricultural use such as private dairy farms in response to regional market influences attracting urban development. Existing rural roadways and infrastructure is planned to be replaced with ultimate improvements to accommodate future development plans consistent with The Ontario Plan.

2.1.1 On-Site Uses
The project site is generally used for agricultural purposes, including the raising of livestock, dairy farming activities and a commercial nursery. The majority of the site exists as fallow or cultivated fields. There is a private recreational vehicle facility in the south western portion of the site and a scrap yard at the southwestern intersection (Euclid Avenue and Edison Avenue).

Numerous single family residential structure, as well as agricultural related buildings and open structures are located within the Specific Plan area. The buildings on-site are representative of older rural residential and farming buildings with the southern portion of the City of Ontario and characterize the original colonization of the region prior to the incorporation of the City of Ontario.

One or more of the ancillary farming buildings reflect an Art Deco architectural style reflective of early agricultural structures in the area and may represent an important City historical resource.

The documentation and recordation of any significant historic resources will be addressed per the project Environmental Impact Report (EIR).

Two Southern California Edison (SCE) easements extend across the Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan area. No structures are located within the SCE easements, however, they have been used for various agricultural uses historically. See the following examples:

2.1.2 Surrounding Uses
Existing uses in the vicinity of the Specific Plan area include similar uses to the uses within the project site. The area to the west, across Euclid Avenue, is within the City of Chino and has been developed with varied commercial and light industrial uses including a service station/convenience store at the northwestern corner of Euclid and Edison Avenue, low intensity commercial office, business park and truck trailer storage uses. Moving northerly, the adjacent development pattern in Chino transitions to a medium density single family neighborhood and a conventional neighborhood shopping center. 138

2.2 Existing and Surrounding Development
The Specific Plan area is occupied by rural uses, including a dairy farm and vacant land. Dairy farming and agriculture have been the primary uses of the property since before the 1930s.

Figure 2.1 shows the Specific Plan in context with the surrounding existing uses in the vicinity, which include:
• North across Schaefer Avenue - Exis ting dairy farm. • South across Edison Avenue - Exis ting Trucking Facility. • East across Sultana - V acant and Existing Trucking Facility. • West across Euclid Avenue (City of Chino) - Exis ting Commercial and Residential uses, T ruck/trailer storage.

The Ontario Plan 2050 designates the surrounding areas in for Commercial, Residential and Mixed-Use development.

The remaining adjacent uses are within the City of Ontario. Ongoing crop farming is located to the north of the site and a vacant property that was a former dairy farm is located to the east of the site.

The property to the south is currently residential, farming or trucking related uses. See photos below:

2.3 Airport Influence Areas
Ontario International Airport
The Ontario International Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (ONT ALUCP) was adopted by the Ontario City Council on April 19, 2011. The purpose of a compatibility plan is to avoid conflicts between airport operations and surrounding land uses. The Specific Plan area is not within the safety, noise impact, or airspace protection zones of the ONT ALUCP; however, it is within the Airport Influence Area, as is the entire City of Ontario.

Chino Airport
On August 2, 2022, the City Council of the City of Ontario approved and adopted a Development Code Amendment to establish the Chino Airport (“CNO”) Overlay Zoning District (“OZD”) and Reference I, Chino Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (“CNO ALUCP”). The CNO OZD and CNO ALUCP established the Airport Influence Area for Chino Airport, solely within the City of Ontario, and limits future land uses and development within the Airport Influence Area, as they relate to safety, airspace protection, and overflight impacts of current and future airport activity. The CNO ALUCP is consistent with policies and criteria set forth within the Caltrans 2011 California Airport Land Use Planning Handbook. The specific plan is located within the Airport Influence Area of Chino Airport, Overflight Notification Zone and Airspace Protection Zone.

2.4 Williamson Act Contracts
The California Land Conservation Act of 1965, commonly known as the Williamson Act, enables local governments to enter into contracts with private landowners for the purpose of restricting specific parcels of land to agricultural or related open space use. In return, landowners receive property tax assessments that are much lower than normal based upon farming and open space uses as opposed to full market value. The motivation for the Williamson Act is to promote voluntary land conservation, particularly farmland conservation. There are no active Williamson Act contracts located within the Specific Plan area. 141

The Specific Plan area is located approximately two and one half (2 ½) miles south of State Route 60 via State Route 83 (Euclid Avenue), which is located on the western boundary of the Specific Plan area, as shown in Figure 2.3.

Vehicular circulation in the Specific Plan area is provided by Schaefer Avenue on the north, Edison Avenue on the south, Sultana Avenue on the east and Euclid Avenue on the west.

Existing improvements for Euclid Avenue include interim pavement and an unimproved dirt center median. Euclid Avenue has a fully dedicated right-of-way as specified in The Ontario Plan 2050.

Schaefer Avenue and Edison Avenue are paved in an interim condition, requiring ultimate right-of-way dedication and major street and parkway improvements.

On the eastern boundary of the Specific Plan area, Sultana Avenue is a fully dedicated yet unimproved street that exists only on paper, which will require major street and parkway improvements.

Traffic signals are located along Euclid Avenue at the Edison Avenue and Schaefer Avenue intersections.

Access to the site is currently provided via multiple private driveway entrances located on Euclid Avenue, Edison Avenue and Schaefer Avenue.

2.7 Existing Environmental Conditions
Topography
The overall project site is moderately flat, sloping from north to south with approximately a 25 ft. change in elevation.

Geology, Soils, and Seismicity
The Phase I environmental site assessment (ESA) included boring to depths of 10 to 30± ft. and trenching to depths of 4 to 12± ft.. Soils encountered through boring and trenching consist of highly organic soils to depths of 1 to 1½± ft.. The near surface soils possess low to medium expansion potentials. Groundwater was not encountered in any of the soil borings conducted as part of the assessment.

The near surface soils are considered corrosive to ferrous metals, including ductile iron pipe.

Additionally, the near surface soils encountered at a boring located in the cattle pen area possessed chloride concentrations that can be deleterious to steel in reinforced concrete. A methane gas survey determined on-site levels are below the threshold.

A geotechnical feasibility study on the Specific Plan site indicated that the proposed development is considered feasible from a geotechnical standpoint. The subject site is located in an area that is subject to strong ground motions due to earthquakes. Research of available maps indicates that the Plan area is not located within an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone. Furthermore, a geotechnical feasibility study did not identify any evidence of faulting during the geotechnical investigation. Therefore, the possibility of significant fault rupture on the site is considered low.

The potential for other geologic hazards such as seismically induced settlement, lateral spreading, tsunamis, inundation, flooding, and subsidence affecting the site is considered low. Research of the San Bernardino County Land Use Services website indicates that the subject site is not located within a zone of liquefaction susceptibility. Based on the mapping performed by San Bernardino County and the conditions encountered at the boring locations, liquefaction is not considered to be a design concern for development within the Specific Plan area.

Each proposed development within the Specific Plan area will be required to have a project specific geotechnical investigation.

Storm runoff from the project site generally drains from north to south. There are two detention areas onsite, one located in the center of the site and the other at the southwestern portion of the site to the north of the rural residential lots along Euclid Avenue near the NEC of Euclid Avenue and Edison Avenue.

The southerly portion of the Specific Plan area surface drains southerly and surface flows on a southwesterly direction to the NEC of Euclid Avenue and Edison Avenue and is dispersed across the street to the south.

According to Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Maps, the project site is not located within a flood hazard zone.

Each proposed development within the Specific Plan area will be required to have a project specific hydraulics and hydrology report.

3. DEVEL OPMENT PLAN
This Section provides the framework to guide development of the Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan.

The Section presents the proposed planning areas, infrastructure plans, and public services to support the project.

3.1 Land Use Plan
The Specific Plan consists of three (3) Land Use Designations divided into five (5) Planning Areas to accommodate the development of a mix of land uses including retail commercial, general commercial/office, business parks, low intensity office/warehouse, technology and incubator space, light manufacturing/distribution uses, high density residential uses and open space areas that are compatible with the site’s location and surrounding existing and proposed land uses. The Land Use Plan implements the vision and goals of the Ontario Plan by providing opportunities for employment in a variety of commercial and business industries designed to meet the demand of current and future market conditions. A list of allowable uses by Planning Area is presented in Section 4 (Development Criteria and Standards).

Table 3.1 provides the maximum development intensity (allowable gross building area and maximum residential development for each Planning Area based on the allowable floor area ratio or residential density respectively. Development standards (found in Section 4), such as setback requirements, parking, open space, minimum landscaping, infrastructure, and site design, may reduce the maximum gross square footage or density.

Figure 3.1 (Land Use Plan) identifies the location of the Planning Areas. Each Land Use Designation is described below:

BP ( BUSINESS P ARK) Z ONING DIS TRICT:

The Business Park District accommodates business park and related commercial, low intensity office uses, and certain light industrial uses. Development within this district is typically multi-tenant in nature; however, single-tenant buildings are not precluded.

Development within the Business Park District will be set back from Euclid Avenue, separated by a 50 ft. landscaped Neighborhood Edge with an 8 ft. wide multi-purpose trail. Smaller scale buildings will face Euclid Avenue and will be designed to create an attractive frontage that reflects a commercial/office character within the allowable building heights. Parking and vehicle storage areas will be sited behind buildings or will be heavily screened from perimeter street views. 153

MU ( MIXED-USE) Z ONING DIS TRICT:

The MU zoning district accommodates a wide variety of retail commercial, office and high density residential development in conformance with The Ontario Plan 2050. It is anticipated that the Mixed-Use development will be comprised of 10% Office, 20% Retail and 70% Residential.

The southern portion of the site, comprised of approximately 20 acres along the north side of Edison Avenue, is zoned for Mixed Use development. This area is part of a much larger mixed use area identified in The Ontario Plan 2050 as the Great Park Mixed Use Area. Approximately 170 additional contiguous acres is located south of Edison Avenue. This Mixed Use Area is intended to encourage commercial/retail, office, and higher density residential development opportunities to serve the western portion of the Ontario Ranch and to provide a west anchor to the City of Ontario Great Park.

OS-NR ( OPEN SP ACE/NON-RECREATIONAL) Z ONING DIS TRICT:

The OS-NR zoning district defines the utility corridors (Southern California Edison) easement areas within the City. This zoning district allows low intensity uses such as vehicle and truck storage, nursery and limited agricultural uses, parking, etc. subject to written approval from Southern California Edison.

This “District” encompasses the utility easement corridors within the Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan boundary. These areas are designated for non-recreational uses. While no buildings are proposed within this district, it is suitable for uses such as landscape plant nurseries, recreational vehicle and truck/trailer storage and other uses allowed by the City zoning.

3.2 Circulation Plan
The Circulation Plan facilitates movement of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists around and within the Specific Plan area, consistent with the City of Ontario Roadway Classification System, shown in Figure 3.2.

Figures 3.4 to 3.7 present typical street cross sections for Euclid Avenue, Schaefer Avenue, Sultana Av - enue, and Edison Avenue. Conceptual streetscape design is presented in Section 5 (Design Guidelines).

Roadway, sidewalk, and trail improvements within the Specific Plan area must be approved by the City’s Engineering Department.

3.3 Potable Water Plan
The City’s ultimate domestic water system will consist of five pressure zones. Most of Ontario Ranch (including the Specific Plan area) is in the 925 Pressure Zone. The overall water infrastructure plan to serve the City of Ontario as well as the required water infrastructure required to be constructed to serve the Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan area is shown on Figure 3.10. The developer of the Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan will be responsible to provide the required water lines to connect to the existing improvements constructed by the Ontario Ranch Business Park development to the south of the site. 925 Pressure Zone (PZ) Phase 2 Potable Water System facilities will need to be constructed, by others, to serve the Project. These facilities include installing a 42-inch potable water main in Grove Avenue connecting from the 30-inch to the 42-inch potable water main in Grove Avenue at Chino Ave; installing a 42-inch potable main in Chino Avenue connecting from the 42-inch potable water main in Campus Avenue and extending to Francis Street; and, installing a 42-inch potable water main in Bon View Avenue connecting from the 42-inch potable water main in Francis Street and extending to the Bon View Avenue Reservoir site and to the Reservoir; and, installing a 9 million gallon reservoir on the Bon View Reservoir site; and, installing two 2,500 gpm wells with any treatment necessary to meet water quality standards and the 16-inch to 42-inch well collection mains from the wells to the reservoirs. The EUCLID MIXED-USE Project will be required to participate in the future Phase 2 Water System Improvements as detailed in the development agreement with the City.

In addition to extending the 925 Pressure Zone (PZ) Phase 2 West Backbone, described above, the Specific Plan area requires a connection between the 925 Pressure Zone (PZ) Phase 2 West Backbone and the 1010 Pressure Zone (PZ). This will supply a second source of potable water to the Specific Plan area. The connection to the 1010 Pressure Zone (PZ) will require extending the Phase 2 West Backbone at Eucalyptus Avenue and Grove Avenue by installing a 30-inch potable water main north on Grove Avenue to Chino Avenue. The connection to the 1010 Pressure Zone will require installing an 18-inch potable water main in Chino Avenue easterly to the existing 18-inch potable water main located on the west side of the Cucamonga Creek channel and installing a Pressure Reducing Station between the 1010 PZ and 925 PZ near the intersection of Grove Avenue and Chino Avenue.

Other elements of the Phase 2 Water System are shown on Figure 3.10. The elements shown north of
Chino Avenue will be constructed by others. The balance of Phase 2 Water System will be completed as required by future development of Ontario Ranch. The Project will be required to participate in the future Phase 2 Water System improvements, as detailed in the developmentt agreement with the City.

Water service to the Specific Plan area will be provided by the City of Ontario. Currently there are no City domestic water mains or City water infrastructure in the vicinity of the Specific Plan area. The extension of City master planned domestic water infrastructure is being developed within the western portion of Ontario Ranch. The Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan is responsible to provide domestic water service to serve future development and will construct a 16-inch line in Euclid Avenue and Schaefer Avenue, and a 12-inch line along the remaining perimeter of the Specific Plan in Sultana Avenue and Edison Avenue. The Specific Plan will extend the 16-inch line in Schaefer Avenue to connect to the future line at Grove Avenue and the 16-inch line in Euclid Avenue south to connect to the future line in Eucalyptus Avenue. 166

3.5 Sewer Plan
Regional wastewater treatment services are provided to the City of Ontario by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency (IEUA). Several regional trunk sewers collect sewage generated in the City and transport it to IEUA’s Regional Plant No.1 and Regional Plant No.5 for treatment. Sewer Main Sizes to be determined by final design requirements and criteria.

There are no sewer mains located in Euclid Avenue or the other streets adjacent to the Specific Plan area. The extension of City master planned sewer infrastructure is being developed within the western portion of Ontario Ranch. The City’s master planned sewer system has been constructed in Euclid Avenue at Eucalyptus Avenue and along Eucalyptus Avenue between Euclid and Sultana Avenues.

The Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan is responsible to provide sewer service to serve future development and will construct a 16” line approximately 2,650 ft. along the entire frontage of the project in Euclid and extend an 18” main line along the Euclid Avenue to the south to connect to the Kimball Interceptor Sewer.

The Specific Plan will construct an 8” line along approximately 1,320 ft. of the eastern boundary of the Specific Plan in Sultana Avenue to Edison Avenue and extend an 8” line in Edison Avenue to connect to the 18” main line in Euclid Avenue.

Actual sewer pipe size will be determined during final design by hydraulic calculations through a Sewer Study or Sewer Sub-Area Master Plan (SSAMP). Refer to
Figure 3.15.

3.6 Conceptual Grading Plan
Site topography is moderately flat, sloping from the north to the south. There is an approximately 25 ft. elevation change across the Specific Plan area.

The grading activities for the Specific Plan area will generally consist of clearing and grubbing, demolition of existing structures, and moving surface soils to construct building pads, driveways and streets.

A Conceptual Grading Plan will be prepared in conjunction with future subdivision mapping and approvals.

The grading plan will provide a balance of cut and fill for the Specific Plan area. Grading plans for each development project within the Specific Plan area will be reviewed and approved by the City of Ontario prior to the issuance of grading permits. Grading plans and activities will conform to the City’s grading ordinance and dust and erosion control requirements.

All landscaped areas within the Specific Plan area shall be designed to accept runoff water from impervious surfaces. Landscape slopes shall not be greater than 3:1 on all perimeter slopes, including within neighborhood edge areas and slopes over 5 ft. in height. 178

3.7 Dry Utilities Plan
Utility services provided to the site will be installed underground in accordance with City of Ontario guidelines.

3.7.1 Communic ation System
Developments in Ontario Ranch are required to install and provide fiber conduit to all improved lots.

Proposed on-site facilities will be placed underground within a duct and structure system that will be installed by the developer. Pursuant to the City of Ontario 2013 Fiber Optic Master Plan, the fiber optic network will be owned and operated by the City of Ontario and as such maintenance of the installed system will be the responsibility of the City and/or Special District fiber optic entity and not the developer. According to the City’s Fiber Optic Master Plan, the proposed fiber optic infrastructure, including approximately 23 miles of backbone fiber south of Riverside Drive, is an investment into a long term capital asset using newly constructed and existing conduit to provide high speed communication links to key locations throughout the City. The Specific Plan area will be connected to the City’s system as shown on Figure 3.18.

3.7.2 Na tural Gas
The Gas Company will provide natural gas to the Specific Plan area. Gas mains will be installed to the individual development projects by the Gas Company, as necessary.

3.7.3 Electricity
Southern California Edison will provide electricity to the Specific Plan area from existing facilities in the vicinity. All new lines within the Specific Plan area shall be installed according to City of Ontario requirements.

Undergrounding of existing overhead power lines will be subject to Section 7-7 of the Ontario Municipal Code. Existing power poles along Edison Avenue will need to be relocated. The existing location is within the ultimate roadway.

3.8 Storm Drain Plan
Storm Drain systems to serve the Specific Plan area will be installed according to the City of Ontario Storm Drain Master Plan. As of the establishment of the Specific Plan, there are no City domestic storm drain trunk lines in the vicinity of the Specific Plan area. The extension of City master planned storm drain infrastructure is being developed within the western portion of Ontario Ranch. The Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan is responsible to provide storm drain to serve future development and will construct a 90” line in Euclid along the western perimeter of the Specific Plan, a 48” to 90” line in Schaefer Avenue along the northern perimeter of the Specific Plan and a 78’ to 96” in Edison Avenue along the southern perimeter of the Specific Plan. The Specific Plan will construct a 102” trunk line in Euclid Avenue south to connect to the existing 108” line at Euclid Avenue and Eucalyptus Avenue.

Catch basins located throughout the site will collect runoff. On-site storm drain systems serving the Specific Plan will connect to the master planned system in Euclid Avenue to serve the Specific Plan development. The Specific Plan area storm drain improvements are shown in Figure 3.20.

DEVELOPMENT PLAN

3.8.1 NPDE S Compliance
The grading and drainage of the Specific Plan area will be designed to retain/filter, harvest, and reuse or treat surface runoff to comply with the current requirements of the San Bernardino County NPDES Stormwater Program’s Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) for significant new development projects. Water quality impacts may be minimized through the implementation of site designs that reduce runoff and pollutant transport by minimizing impervious surfaces and maximizing on-site infiltration, employing Source Control Best Management Practices (BMP’s), or using on-site structural Treatment Control BMP’s where the infeasibility of installing Low Impact Development BMP’s is demonstrated.

New development within the Specific Plan area will utilize a variety of Low Impact Development site drainage designs to manage stormwater, including but not limited to retention/filtration basins, trenches and swales, and above ground bio- retention systems. Development projects within the Specific Plan area will incorporate features including but not limited to:
• Landscape designs that promote water retention and incorporation of water conservation elements such as use of native plants and drip irrigation systems; • Permeable surface designs in areas with low traffic;
• Parking lots that drain to landscaped areas to provide retention and infiltration, or bio-treatment where infiltration is infeasible; and
• Limit soil compaction during grading operations within landscaped storm water infiltration areas to no more than 80 percent compaction.

Prior to the issuance of a grading or construction permit, a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), Erosion & Sediment Control Plan sheets, and a WQMP will be prepared and approved. The SWPPP and Erosion & Sediment Control Plan Sheets will identify and detail all appropriate BMP’s to be implemented or installed during construction of the project, and the WQMP will describe all post-construction BMP’s designed to address water quality and quantity of runoff for the life of the project.

All Priority Land Use (PLU) areas within the Specific Plan Area 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. Priority Land Use (PLU) includes high- density residential (defined as a land use with at least ten (10) dwelling units per acre), industrial, commercial, mixed urban, and public transportation station. Drainage from the PLU shall be designed with conveyance tributary to a sub-regional Full Trash Capture System such as a Debris Separating Baffle Box (DSBB), Continuous Deflective System (CDS), or an equivalent hydrodynamic separator which has been approved by the SWRCB.

3.9 Public Services
Public services within the Specific Plan area, including police, fire and solid waste disposal services will be provided as follows:

3.9.1 P olice
The City of Ontario will provide police services to the Specific Plan area. The closest police station is located approximately four miles north of the Specific Plan area at 2500 S. Archibald Avenue, just south of SR-60. This station is also the City of Ontario Police Department headquarters.

3.9.2 Fir e
The City of Ontario will provide fire protection services to the Specific Plan area. The Ontario Fire Department currently has ten stations, which are staffed with eight four-man paramedic engine companies and two four-man truck companies. The closest operational fire station, Station 2, is located at 544 W. Francis Street, approximately three miles north of the Specific Plan area.

3.9.3 Solid W aste Disposal
The City of Ontario will provide solid waste services to the Specific Plan area. Solid waste facilities will follow the “Solid Waste Department Refuse and Recycling Planning Manual.” The Manual establishes the City of Ontario’s requirements for refuse and recycling storage and access for service, as well as addresses the City’s recycling goals. The Mid-Valley Landfill is the nearest County of San Bernardino landfill located at 2390 N. Alder Avenue in the City of Rialto, approximately 20 miles northeast of the Specific Plan area.

3.10 Phasing Plan
Development phasing of the project site will be determined by the landowner and/or developer based upon real estate market conditions. Phasing will occur as appropriate levels of infrastructure are provided.

Phasing sequencing is subject to change over time to respond to various market and local factors and as such, individual phases may overlap or develop concurrently. Infrastructure improvements, as required and approved by the City Engineer to support the development, will be installed by the developer.

Figure 3.22, Conceptual Phasing Plan, describes the general phases of development anticipated for the Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan area.

Specific Plan backbone infrastructure will be installed by the project developer, in accordance with the applicable City adopted infrastructure plan for the area, as well as the provisions of this Specific Plan and an approved Development Agreement. Fair share responsibilities for improvements will be addressed in a Development Agreement with the City of Ontario. The timing for installation of infrastructure and utilities within the Specific Plan area will be determined as part of the City’s approval of future subdivision maps and development plans. Infrastructure will be constructed and made available in a timely manner as development progresses. Phasing of required infrastructure will be determined per separate Development Agreement.

5.1.3.6 Euclid Ga teway
The Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan’s location along the City’s most prominent avenue at the gateway to the primary arterial roadway through the Ontario Ranch will be celebrated with special “Gateway Monument” features.

The primary arrival monument is the Euclid Gateway with two tower features. The Euclid Gateway features will be located at the northeast corner of the intersection of Euclid Avenue and Edison Avenue.

The objectives of the Euclid Gateway are as follows:

1. Create a distinctive architectural feature to establish a sense of arrival and a welcoming landmark to western gateway to The Ontario Ranch.

2. Identify the Specific Plan area as an example and quality standard for Mixed-Use and Business Park development within the City.

3. Utilize durable and lasting materials and a sustainable monument design reflecting the proposed architectural character of development within the Specific Plan area.

4. Incorporate a climate sensitive and water wise planting plan to soften and accentuate the monument feature to create a unique landscape aesthetic integrated into the City streetscape plant palette.

The Euclid Gateway monuments will reflect paired contemporary vertical block towers. The tower design will be capped with an angular top. The tower features a massive steel panel that mirrors the angular top of each gateway tower reinforcing the impressive scale and rich color of the signage. The overall height of the tower will be 14+ ft. to optimize its visibility and to allow for the inclusion of the City of Ontario logo near the top of the tower.

The landscape treatment around the Gateway monuments will consist of low growing plant species to accentuate the vertical form of the towers. Drought tolerant plant material will be utilized to create a layered landscape base. Plants that reinforce the architectural character of the Gateway such as native grasses, Agaves and other larger succulents and colorful xeriscape plants will provide a sustainable focal landscape treatment. Vertical planting around the Euclid Gateway monuments will be avoided, allowing for the towers to be set against the backdrop of the master planned streetscape trees within the neighborhood edges of Euclid Avenue and Edison Avenue.

5.2 Business Park Guidelines
The following Design Guidelines have been developed to ensure a quality-cohesive design structure for Business Park development in the Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan. They will provide the City with the necessary assurances that the Specific Plan will develop in accordance with the appropriate design quality and character.

The design guidelines are intended to be flexible and illustrative in nature, with the capability of responding to unanticipated conditions, the market and design trends, while maintaining the following overall objectives:

1. To secure the long-term vitality of The Ontario Plan by implementing its objectives, policies and principles.

2. To provide the City with the necessary assurances that the Specific Plan area will develop in accordance with the design quality and character proposed herein.

3. To serve as design criteria for developers, builders, engineers, architects, landscape architects and other professionals in preparing plans for construction.

4. To lend guidance to the City staff, Planning Commission and City Council in the review and evaluation of future development projects in the Specific Plan area.

5. To provide for the development of Business Park uses which utilize the site’s prime location to Ontario Airport.

6. To create a high quality Business Park development that attracts an array of businesses and provides employment opportunities to area residents.

7. To provide Business Park uses within the project boundaries which are compatible with surrounding uses.

5.2.1 Ar chitectural Design
The building design, materials, colors, and textures establish its theme and character. Architecture shall be compatible and complementary with other buildings within the Specific Plan area; however, design diversity is encouraged to provide visual interest. Although development within Planning Area 1 and Planning Area 2 differ in building height and scale, similar design concepts apply as follows:

5.2.1.1 Gener al Architectural Guidelines:

1. Ensure scale, massing, fenestration, materials, and colors are consistent with the building’s architectural style and compatible with the overall design in the Specific Plan area.

2. Avoid blank walls by providing articulation on building elevations visible from a public right-of-way through elements such as cornices, parapets, expression lines, and changes in materials and/or colors.

3. Provide the greatest level of articulation on the front facades that are visible from the public rights-of-way and at the main entrances.

4. Design entry features as a significant aspect of a building’s overall composition through massing, detailing, architectural treatments, and/or special materials and colors.

5. Employ recessed or covered building entrances to provide shade and visual relief. 218

SPECIFIC
PLAN

SPECIFIC PLAN IMPLEMENTATION

6. Design office buildings, business parks, and office areas of warehouse buildings with an emphasis on the use of windows, architectural details, and building articulation.

7. Integrate the design of warehouse office areas into the overall building composition so they create powerful architectural statements and not visually disjointed “add-ons.”

8. Employ a minimum of four different colors, materials, and/or textures on each building.

9. Avoid terminating a change in material or color at a building edge; instead, select a logical termination point in relation to the architectural features or massing.

10. Paint exposed downspouts, service doors, and mechanical screens the same color as the adjacent wall. Exposed downspouts are not permitted on elevations that front onto a street.

5.2.1.2 Sit e Design
Business Park developments in the Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan will allow for employment opportunities to be created for the City of Ontario and surrounding region. Residents of Ontario Ranch will have the ability to access employment not only by automobile but also via pedestrian multi-purpose trails along surrounding arterial streets.

Business Park uses should implement appropriate site planning, architectural and landscape design techniques to be complimentary to the adjacent land uses.

Site design should facilitate the intended functions of developed and open space areas and provide for appropriate interactions between buildings, activity areas, vehicular access, parking, pedestrian paths and bicycle travel.

5.2.2 Landsc ape Design
Conceptual landscape plans encourage durable landscape materials and designs that enhance the aesthetics of structures, create and define public and private spaces, and provide shade and environmental benefits. The following guidelines ensure that landscaping plans within the Specific Plan area will comply with City of Ontario Landscape Development Guidelines.

5.2.2.1 Gener al Landscape Guidelines:

1. Landscape and irrigate all areas of the site not covered by buildings, structures, paving, or impervious surfaces.

2. Design and grade projects to direct storm runoff from building roofs and paved areas into swaled landscape areas for retention/infiltration. Landscape areas may be used for storm water basins and swales at no greater than 40 percent of the available landscape area and may not obstruct the mature root zone of required tree locations.

3. Provide shade for expanses of paving, except with the SCE easement areas, with irrigated shade trees located in appropriate areas where space permits to reduce the impacts of heat gain.

4. Design parking lot landscaping to reduce associated heat buildup, improve aesthetics, and integrate with on-site landscape and adjacent streetscape.

5.3 Mixed-Use Commercial/Office Guidelines
Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan allows for Commercial and Office developments within Planning Areas 3A and 3B along Euclid Avenue and Edison Avenue. These areas combine for approximately 19 acres and will be designed to create a place for surrounding residents to have access to shopping and employment opportunities nearby. Surrounding residents will have the ability to access services by foot, or ride their bicycles to work via pedestrian trails connecting the community to the overall Ontario Ranch and the rest of the City of Ontario.

The location of PA 3A and 3B along Euclid creates the opportunity for a major gateway monument.

This gateway will provide a sense of place for the Euclid Mixed-Use area and will establish a cohesive development design character defining the western City boundary. In order to maintain an overall character of Euclid Mixed-Use area, combining Business Park and Mixed-Uses, future commercial and/or office development is expected to be developed with a compatible and harmonious quality.

These Commercial/Office Design Guidelines will help direct the development of the area to enhance the pedestrian experience that positively contributes to the character of Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan area.

These guidelines are general in nature and are not intended to be strictly enforced rules, but as a tool in aiding the design process. Developers of future commercial and/or office projects will be required to submit Development Plans to demonstrate consistency with the Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan, including these Guidelines, for City approval.

5.3.1.2 Sit e Planning
Orientation
Buildings should be oriented for optimal visibility from the street. Windows and entries should face the street avoiding blank walls dominating public views. Stores with entries not visible from the street may be oriented towards pedestrian open space and all primary entries should face onto a street or a connecting walkway.

Building clusterings are recommended to help define parking lot areas and encourage walking between stores. Building entries and storefronts should be positioned close to one another to reduce walking distances between them.

Driveways and Sidewalks
The site shall be provided with an adequate number of driveways to facilitate circulation and also reduce the traffic impact along the surrounding arterials. Pedestrian crossing distances should be minimized at driveways. All driveways and sidewalks shall be constructed per City Standards and to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. No decorative paving will be allowed in the public right-of-way unless otherwise approved by the City Engineer.

Street Frontage and Buildings
Streetside buildings, or those with no parking separating them from the street, should use windows and entry features to soften the building’s appearance to the street.

Streetside Setbacks and Buildings
The sides of buildings along street edges shall be landscaped within the setback to soften the building’s appearance as well as designed with windows or design elements.

Refuse Containers, Utility and Mechanical Equipment
Refuse containers and equipment shall be easily accessed by service vehicles. They shall be screened from view of the streets, parking lots, and connecting walkways through roof forms, walls and/or landscaping.

Screening details should incorporate elements that are compatible to the architectural style of the buildings. Proper landscaping, including trellises, may also help to screen these elements. Equipment and enclosures shall not be located near pedestrian walkways. Roof-mounted equipment shall be screened by the roof/ parapet.

Sidewalks
Sidewalks shall be located along natural pedestrian travel paths. Public sidewalks should be a minimum of 5’ wide. All walkways shall be a minimum of 4 ft. wide and all walkways within developments in the Specific Plan area will comply withe ADA standards for accessibility. 230

5.3.1.3 Building Design
Massing
With larger buildings, appropriate massing becomes more important to maintain the human-scale of the development and create a visually pleasing environment. Bay windows, stepped buildings, height changes and setback variations between stores help to break up large buildings as well as indicate entries and store locations to customers. Tower elements or monumental features are encouraged at focal points, such as corners, plazas, major entrances, or where walkways meet streets.

Varying setbacks along the front façade of buildings are recommended to create small outdoor public spaces for pedestrians to gather and sit.

Roof Forms
Roof pitches shall be compatible to the architectural style of the buildings. Flat roofs should vary in height and be accompanied by cornice, trim or other accent features.

Arcades and Awnings
Outdoor arcades along store fronts are encouraged over pedestrian walkways. Arcades may be used to connect separate buildings providing a more pleasing experience for pedestrians. Trellises or awnings may also be used to create a covered walkway to protect pedestrians from the sun and rain.

Entry Design
Building entries shall be prominent and easily identified. Various elements can be used to enhance the entry features including massing variation, materials and color change, change in roof form, and awnings. For smaller retail buildings, part of a cluster or strip, arcades, awnings and simple signage may be acceptable as entries.

No signs shall be placed in the public right-of-way and shall be in accordance with City standards regarding corner site distance.

Design Flexibility
Retail spaces exceeding 30,000 s.f. should be designed with the flexibility to be divisible into smaller retail spaces, should future market demand change.

Façades that are visible from adjacent streets or walkways should display even greater visual interest by using architectural elements that break up the massing of large buildings, such as windows, arcades, awnings, porticos, and other architectural features.

Base and Top Treatments
Base and top treatments help to balance the “weight” of the building visually. Bases should appear to “ground” the building, while tops create a defined edge to the roofline. Possible treatment techniques are as follows:
231
5-26
Page
Base:
• Natural materials
• Enriched landscaping with a mature height of at least 18” • Pre-cast materials
• Other decorative, durable materials as approved by the City • Thicker walls
Tops:
• Cornice treatments
• Roof overhangs with brackets
• Stepped parapets
• Textured materials - Colored “stripes” are not acceptable as the only treatment.

Exterior Materials
Recommended materials include, but are not limited to stucco, exterior plaster, brick, wood siding, tile, pre-cast concrete or stone. Exterior materials that appear pre-fabricated are not recommended.

Selected materials and detailing should have an enduring appearance. Foam products should be avoided at the pedestrian level.

Roof Materials
Roofing materials that are generally acceptable include standing metal seam, concrete tile, tile and slate or slate-like materials. Asphalt or wood shingles are prohibited.

Colors
Color selection shall be consistent with the selected architectural style. 232

7. CONSISTENCY WITH THE ONTARIO PLAN
California Government Code (Title 7, Division 1, Section 3, Article 8, Section 65440- 65457) permits the adoption and administration of Specific Plans as an implementation tool for elements contained within a jurisdiction’s local General Plan. Approval of the Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan is based on the finding that the regulations, guidelines, and programs contained within this Specific Plan are consistent with The Ontario Plan. The Ontario Plan establishes the direction and vision for the City of Ontario and provides a single comprehensive document to shape its future. The Ontario Plan provides for policies to accommodate change over its 30 year lifespan. The Ontario Plan consists of a six part Component Framework: 1) Vision, 2) Governance Manual , 3) Policy Plan , 4) City Council Priorities , 5) Implementation, and 6) Tracking and Feedback.

The following sections demonstrate how the Ontario Ranch Mixed-Use Specific Plan implements the goals and policies of the City’s Policy Plan (General Plan).

7.1 Land Use Element
GOAL LU-1:

A community that 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. (Link to Mobility Element Policies M2-M-2.1, M3-M-3.3; Community Design Element Image and Identity Section; Community Design Policies CD-3.1, CD-3.3, CD-3.6)
The Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan encourages concentrated development including high density residential neighborhoods, office and business park employment uses and retail and mixed use centers along major arterial roadways where future transit stops, multi-use trials and bikeways are planned.

The Design Guidelines in Section 5 encourage site planning criteria and architectural standards to create a unique and cohesive aesthetic character for the project area.

Policy LU-1.2 Sustainable Community Strategy
We integrate state, regional, and local Sustainable Community/Smart Growth principles into the development and entitlement process.

The Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan encourages the efficient use of energy resources in design, product selection, and operational techniques. The Design Guidelines in Section 5 address lighting, bicycle parking, sustainable landscaping, and sustainable design strategies. Landscape provisions 253
7-2
Page
require the use of native drought resistant vegetation and shade trees to conserve water and reduce heat islands. The sustainable design strategies include design and construction of energy efficient buildings to reduce air, water, and land pollution and environmental impacts from energy production and consumption. Protecting water quality, reducing runoff, and reducing water demand for landscaping are promoted in the Development Plan in Section 3 through the recycled water plan and storm drainage facilities source control and treatment practices.

Policy LU-1.3 Adequate Capacity
We require adequate infrastructure and services for all development.

The Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan establishes a Phasing Plan that has been coordinated with affected infrastructure providers and ensures that uses on the project site will be adequately served. The Specific Plan requires infrastructure development to occur in a timely manner. Potable and recycled water, sewer, fiber optic communications, and storm drain infrastructure improvements that will ultimately serve the Specific Plan area are addressed in Section 3, Development Plan. Infrastructure and services will be consistent with City of Ontario infrastructure master plans and the approved development agreement.

Policy LU-1.4 Multimodal Mobility
We require development and urban design, where appropriate, that reduces reliance on the automobile and capitalizes on active transporttion, transit, electric vehicles, and multimodal transportation opportunities (Link to Mobility Element Policies M-2.1, M-3.3; Community Design Element Policy CD-2.6, CD-3.1, CD-3.3, CD3.6).

The Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan requires the construction of multi-purpose trails along Euclid and Schaefer Avenues and public accessible sidewalk along Euclid, Schaefer and Sultana Avenues and Edison Avenue. These improvements are integral elements to create accessibility and mobility within the project site and surrounding area. The Specific Plan requires the location and construction of transit turnouts within the Specific Plan area.

Policy LU-1.5 Jobs-Housing Balance
We coordinate land use, infrastructure, and transportation planning and analysis with regional, county, and other local agencies to further regional and subregional goals for jobs-housing balance. (Link to Community Economics Element Policy CE-1.1; Mobility Element Policy M-1.6).

The Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan requires all infrastructure needed to develop the property to be constructed per The City approved master plans as indicated in Section 5 of the Specific Plan. The Land Use Plan allows for up to 466 housing and a variety of employment generating land uses totaling over 1,676,886 S.F.to encourage a balance of jobs and nearby housing.

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.

Consistent with the vision for Ontario Ranch as outlined in the Ontario Ranch Streetscape Master Plan, the Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan (Section 5.3, Landscape Design) provides for landscaped setbacks and landscaped parkways adjacent to bike lanes and sidewalks, defining these public spaces. The landscaped setbacks and parkways will include drought-tolerant plants featuring colorful shrubs and groundcovers, ornamental grasses and succulents, evergreen and deciduous trees, and species native to Southern California or naturalized to the arid Southern California climate to promote durable plant materials. The plant selection will complement the design theme of the Specific Plan area. Parking lot landscaping will reduce associated heat buildup, improve aesthetics, and integrate into onsite landscape design and adjacent streetscapes. Swaled landscape areas will retain/ infiltrate stormwater run-off to improve water quality and promote groundwater recharge where feasible. Shade trees thoughtfully located near expanses of paving, building walls, roofs, and windows will reduce the impacts of heat gain.

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.

The Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan includes design guidelines for future development within the Mixed Use District in Section 5 that include planning and design criteria to minimize the visual impact of surface parking and garages for future development within the Specific Plan area and surrounding neighborhoods.

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.

The Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan establishes design guidelines to ensure high-quality development and a sense of place. As discussed in Section 5.3, Landscape Design, Euclid, Eucalyptus, Schaefer and Sultana Avenue and Edison Avenue will feature landscaped setbacks adjacent to the Specific Plan area that will provide attractive entries to the site. An entry monument will be located at the northeast corner of Euclid Avenue and Edison Avenue to identify the Ontario Ranch area and/or the Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan area.

Policy CD-2.12 Site and Building Signage
We encourage the use of sign programs that utilize complementary materials, colors, and themes.

Project signage should be designed to effectively communicate and direct users to various aspects of the development and complement the character of the structures.

The Euclid Mixed-Use Specific Plan (Section 5.7, Signage) requires approval of a comprehensive sign program to address parcel identification, building identification and directional signage within the Specific Plan area. A comprehensive sign program will integrate project signage with the overall design of the site and structures to create a unified visual statement. A comprehensive sign program provides a means for flexible application of sign regulations to provide incentive and latitude in the design and display of multiple signs. Business park uses on the site will also be appropriately signed to give direction to loading and receiving, visitor parking, and other special uses.

Policy CD-2.16 Transit Stops
We require transit stops be conveniently located, well lit, safe, and clearly accessible to pedestrians, bicyclists, and people of all abilities.

The Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan requires the location and construction of transit turnouts within the Specific Plan area.

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.

The Euclid Mixed Use Specific Plan includes design guidelines for future development within the Mixed Use District in Section 5 that include planning and design criteria to establish a unique character and sense of identity for future development within the Specific Plan area and surrounding neighborhoods.

Policy CD-3.2 Comfortable, Human-Scale Public Realm
