"WHEREAS, the Development and Neighborhood Services Director of the City of
Pomona has, after giving notice thereof as required by law, held a public hearing on February 1.0,
2016, concerning Development Plan Review (DPR 14-003);
"WHEREAS, the Development and Neighborhood Services Director has carefully
considered all pertinent testimony offered in the case as presented at the hearing,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED by the Development and
Neighborhood Services Director of the City of Pomona, California:
SECTION 1. The Development and Neighborhood Services Director exercising
independent judgment has determined that, pursuant to the Guidelines for Implementation of the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), this action as defined is Categorically Exempt
under Section 15332, Class 32 (In-fill Development). The Development and Neighborhood
Services Director finds that; 1) the proposed project is consistent with the General Plan and
Zoning Ordinance of the City; 2) the parcel is smaller than five acres; 3) the project site has no
value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species; 4) this project will not have significant
effects upon the environment and; 5) the site can adequately be served by utilities and public
services; and
SECTION 2. If any part, provision, or section of this resolution is determined by a court or
other legal authority with jurisdiction over the subject matter of this resolution to be unenforceable
or invalid, the remainder of the entirety of this resolution shall not be affected and shall continue in
full force and effect. To this end, the provisions of this resolution are severable.
SECTION 3. In accordance with Section 2.0.5.A.(4) of the PCSP, the Development and
Neighborhood Services Director must make findings in order to approve Development Plan
Review (DPR 14-003). Based on consideration of the whole record before it, including but not
limited to, public testimony received at the public hearing on this matter, and evidence made part
of the public record, the Director hereby finds as follows:
The project is, consistent with the City's General Plan and all applicable requirements, qfthe City
Code.
The City of Pomona General Plan designates the subject site as a "Transit Oriented District:
Neighborhood" Place Type. "Transit Oriented District: Neighborhood" is defined as the most
active and walkable districts in the City that feature development types of greater intensity than
surrounding areas. These districts feature a mix of uses — horizontally mixed-use in most cases but
vertically mixed-use in the densest locations — typically with retail, commercial and civic activity
on the ground floor and housing, lodging or workplace uses above. The mixed-use development
project is consistent with the City's General Plan because it provides a vertically mixed-use
building that serves the potential to accommodate space(s) for ancillary facilities and services near
Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center. Furthermore, the development project is consistent with
the development standards and design guidelines of the Pomona Zoning Ordinance (PZO) and
PCSP in terms of setbacks, building height, onsite parking, use types, and overall architectural
design.
The project will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons working or residing in the
vicinity nor detrimental to the value of'the property and improvements in the neighborhood.
The mixed-use development project will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons
working or residing in the vicinity nor detrimental to the value of the property and improvements in
the neighborhood as the project will substantially comply with all development and design
standards of the "Workplace Gateway Segment" of the PCSP. The project is not anticipated to
generate noise, traffic, lighting, and privacy impacts detrimental to residents, occupants, and
properties within the surrounding area and inconsistent with the subject property's zoning.
The prqject will not adverse4v qffi?et the Circulation Plan qfthe Corridors Specirlc Plan.
The subject parcel is located with frontage along N. Garey Avenue. The Traffic and Transportation
Division of the City of Pomona Public Works Department has reviewed both off-site and on-site
circulation patterns and have not expressed concern with the project's overall proposed vehicular
mobility. The mixed-use development project will not introduce new driveway approaches along
N. Garey Avenue, but rather utilize an existing alleyway to serve as the project's primary access.
Two driveway aisles will be located immediately adjacent to the alleyway, with the closest
driveway aisle located approximately 50 feet from N. Garcy Avenue. The driveway aisle will be
adequately setback from N. Garey Avenue to minimize potential vehicular stacking. The project
will allow pedestrian access along N. Garey Avenue in compliance with the publically accessible
open space requirements set forth within the PCSP.
The project complies with the applicable provisions of the Pomona Corridors Specific Plan and
other applicable regulations.
The mixed-use development has been thoroughly reviewed and meets all applicable provisions of
the PCSP and other applicable regulations.
SECTION 4. Based upon the above findings, the Development and Neighborhood
Services Director hereby approves Development Plan Review (DPR 14-003) subject to
compliance with all applicable laws and ordinances of the City as well as the addition of the
following conditions, violations of which (or failure to complete any of which) shall constitute
