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 August 25, 2021 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: FINDINGS FOR THE CHANGE OF ZONE
Finding 1: The changes are consistent with the General Plan goals, policies, and implementation
programs.
Evidence: The site is currently located within the A-1 (Light Agriculture) Zone. The A-1 zone is
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-1 (Light Agriculture) to C -1/C -P (General
Commercial). The C -1/C -P zone is consistent with the CR designation and would allow a
commercial retail project subject to the approval of a Major Development Review (DR). The
applicant has filed a Major DR 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 wellbeing of the residents of the City.
Finding 2: The amendment is consistent with the most recent adopted version of the Chino
Airport land Use Compatibility Plan.
Evidence: The project site is located within the Chino Airport influence area and is subject to
consistency with the Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (ALUCP). The Riverside County Airport
Land Use Commission (ALUC) acts in an advisory capacity when reviewing development projects
for compatibility with the ALUCP. On June 10, 2021, ALUC found the proposed project consistent
with the 2008 Chino Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan, subject to conditions.
SECTION 3. CHANGE OF ZONE
The Official Zoning Map for the City of Eastvale is hereby amended to change the four parcels
known as Assessor's Parcel Numbers 144-130-004, 144-130-011, 144-130-012, and 144-130-013
from Light Agriculture (A-1) to General Commercial (C -1/C -P), as shown Exhibit A attached hereto
and incorporated herein by reference.

subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion thereof, irrespective of the fact that
