Evidence: On May 10, 2017, the City Council of the City of Eastvale conducted a duly noticed
public hearing, at which time it received public testimony concerning proposed Project No. 17-
20001, and determined that no additional CEQA analysis is required because the proposed
changes do not introduce new uses which would create impacts not already addressed and
mitigated in the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR)n for the Specific Plan (SCH#
2011111012) certified by the City Council through Resolution No. 14-32 and adopted on June
11, 2014. Therefore, the certified FEIR is still valid for the proposed Specific Plan Amendment.

Amendment.

the adoption of a Specific Plan Amendment (Project No. 17-20001) to the Goodman Commerce

Finding 1: The proposed Specific Plan is consistent with the goals, policies, and objectives of
the City's General Plan.
Evidence: The proposed amendment to the Specific Plan changes the text in portions of
Chapters 2 and 4 of the Goodman Commerce Center at Eastvale Specific Plan. The changes are
made to better create consistency for processing "Indoor Amusement/Entertainment Facility"

applicant's new design for the sign. The changes identified in the Specific Plan Amendment are
compatible with surrounding land uses and are consistent with the goals and policies General

such as a description of the site, available public services and facilities, capacity of existing and
planned circulation system, proposed land uses, development standards for each land use

requirements of the Zoning Code for Specific Plan content. As required, Chapter 2 of the
Specific Plan contains development standards related to land use, transportation facilities,
landscaping, and grading. The proposed amendment to Chapter 2 does not change any land uses
but rather ensures that Indoor Amusement/Entertainment Facilities can be effectively regulated
so those uses would not negatively disrupt neighbors across Bellegrave Avenue from the
Business Park, or other tenants in the Business Park, Chapter 4 includes comprehensive sign
criteria and requirements specific to the Industrial land use portion of the Specific Plan area.
