THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EASTVALE ORDAINS AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Environmental Findings. The City Council of the City of Eastvale, in light of the
whole record before it, including, but not limited to, the City's local CEQA Guidelines and
thresholds of significance, the IS/MND and other documents incorporated therein by reference,
the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP), any written comments received and
responses provided, and other substantial evidence, within the meaning of Public Resources
Code Sections 21080(e) and 21082.2, within the record and/or provided at the public hearing,
hereby finds, determines, and certifies as follows:
A. CEQA. The approval of this Zone Change is in compliance with requirements of
the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), in that on September 9, 2020 at a duly noticed
public hearing, the City Council approved and adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration and
Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program reflecting its independent judgment and analysis
and documenting that there was not substantial evidence, in light of the whole record, from
which it could be fairly argued that the project may have a significant effect on the environment.
The documents comprising the City's environmental review for the project are on file and
available for public review at Eastvale City Hall, Suite 910, Eastvale, CA 91752.
B. Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP). The project is found to be
consistent with the MSHCP. The project is located outside of any MSHCP criteria area and
mitigation is provided through payment of the MSHCP Mitigation Fee.
SECTION 2. Zone Change Finding.
Finding 1: The changes are consistent with the General Plan goals, policies, and implementation
programs.
Evidence: The site is currently located within the A-2 (Heavy Agriculture) Zone. The A-Z zone
would be inconsistent with the CR Land Use Designation, and would not allow the project as
proposed. To remain consistent with the General Plan, in accordance with the Government Code
(state law), the applicant has proposed a Change of Zone from A-2 to C-l/C-P (General
Commercial). The C-l/C-P zone is consistent with the CR designation, and would allow a mini/self-
storage facility subject to the approval of a Conditional Use Permit. The applicant has filed a CUP
application ensure the project is evaluated at a public hearing, and that conditions of approval
may be imposed to ensure the project does not impact the health, safety, and well-being of the
residents of the City.
