RESOLUTION NO. 90 - % A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DIAMOND BAR, CALIFORNIA, DECLARING ITS SUPPORT FOR THE INITIATION OF CONSIDERATION BY THE CALIFORNIA REGIONAL WATER QUALITY CONTROL BOARD OF A PROPOSED ADMINISTRATIVE RULE AFFECTING CERTAIN INERT LANDFILL DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS WHEREAS, the City of Diamond Bar, California (the "City") is concerned with protecting and improving groundwater quality in the San Gabriel Valley, the East San Gabriel Valley, the Pomona Valley and the Walnut Valley; and WHEREAS, in view of the structure of soils within the San Gabriel Valley and portions of the East San Gabriel Valley, the Pomona Valley and the Walnut Valley, the: City is concerned that no new solid waste landfill disposal developments be approved for operation within former rock quarry sites which are located directly over local groundwater resources without first receiving adequate review by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board; and, WHEREAS, the City of E1 Monte, California, is presently circulating among various communities located within the San Gabriel Valley, East San Gabriel Valley, the Pomona Valley and the Walnut Valley a draft of a proposed administrative rule (the "Proposed Rule") as attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and incorporated herein by this reference; and WHEREAS, the Proposed Rule affects the standards by which the California Regional Water Quality Control Board may evaluate inert landfill development proposals for certain sites which are located within densely populated groundwater basins and in areas, such as the Upper Main San Gabriel Basin and certain areas in the East San Gabriel Valley, Pomona Valley and the Walnut Valley, which have been identified as "Superfund Sites" by the United States Environmental Protection Agency under authority of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended ("CERCLA"); and, WHEREAS, it is appropriate for the City to declare its support for the consideration and adoption by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board of the Proposed Rule. NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DIAMOND BAR, CALIFORNIA, DOES HEREBY RESOLVE: SECTION 1. The City Council hereby declares its support for consideration and adoption of the Proposed Rule by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board. The consideration of any development proposal for an inert landfill site in the San Gabriel Valley, the East San Gabriel Valley, Pomona Valley or the Walnut Valley requires special review and consideration in light of the large number of people who are dependent for domestic water service upon the groundwater supply. In addition, the current multi -jurisdictional efforts which are being planned and considered in order to address the very serious environmental contamination and groundwater supply problems in the region may be further complicated by new inert landfill development proposals which are not evaluated in accordance with the standards included in the Proposed Rule. The Proposed Rule appears to address many of the problems which are associated with inert landfill disposal operations in areas which are as Y ""y environmentally sensitive as the groundwater basins in the region, and the City Council hereby calls upon the California Regional Water Quality Control Board to adopt the Proposed Rule. SECTION 2. The City Manager is hereby authorized and directed to request that the Secretary of the California Regional Water Quality Control Board transmit appropriate notice to the City of consideration by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board concerning the Proposed Rule. SECTION 3. The City Clerk is hereby authorized and directed to transmit a certified true and correct copy of this Resolution to the City of El Monte. This Resolution shall take effect upon adoption. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution. PASSED AND APPROVED AND ADOPTED this day of 1990. Mayor I, LYNDA BURGESS, City Clerk of the City of Diamond Bar, California, do hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was passed and adopted by the City Council of the City of Diamond Bar at a regular meeting of said Council held on the day of , 1990, by the following vote: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: ABSTAINED: COUNCIL MEMBERS - 01, (fit P7 COUNCIL MEMBERS - (i COUNCIL MEMBERS - COUNCIL MEMBERS - C7 ATTEST: City Clerk of the City of Diamond Bar ITY Interdepartmental Communicate - City Attorney's Office - November 9, 1989 on TO: GREGORY D. KORDUNER, ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER U" FROM: DAVID F. GONDEK, CITY ATTORNE9�0 SUBJECT: SUBMISSION OF PROPOSED 46MENDMENT TO THE CALIFORNIA ADMINISTRATIVE CODE CONCERNING CERTIFICATION PROCEDURES APPLICABLE TO THE CALIFORNIA REGIONAL QUALITY CONTROL BOARD IN CONNECTION WITH APPLICATIONS FOR INERT LANDFILL OPERATIONS AND REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION TO INITIATE RULE MAKING ACTIVITY BY THE CALIFORNIA REGIONAL WATER QUALITY CONTROL BOARD During the City Council meeting of September 26, 1989, a report was presented concerning the need for additional regulation of proposed operations of inert landfill operators insofar as the operation of such projects may affect local groundwater resources. The California Regional water Quality Control Board (the "Regional Board") currently has authority to impose certain operational conditions upon inert landfill operations if special circumstances warrant. (See: Title 23 California Administrative Code Section 2524 (c)). However, there are no current: regulations which provide specific assistance to the Regional Board in evaluating proposals in which "special circumstances" are in fact present, or relate such special circumstances to the types of landfill operations control measures which must be implemented in order to insure the safety of local groundwater resources. For the past several weeks, I have been in contact with various experts in the field, including the consulting environmental engineers, as well as Special Counsel regarding this matter. A draft of a proposed rule or amendment of the California Administrative Code applicable to inert landfill development approvals by the Regional Board is attached to this memorandum for your consideration. If the City Council Members believe that the attached draft of the proposed rule adequately addresses at least some of their concerns regarding the preservation and improvement of local groundwater resources, it is my recommendation that this Office be authorized to contact the Regional Board directly or on behalf of the City in an effort to initiate consideration of this matter by the Regional Board at the earliest possible date. A100:wp50:005.5-77/Ah#1 Gregory D. Korduner November 9, 1989 Page 2 It is also my recommendation that the proposed rule be submitted concurrently to the Watermaster for the San Gabriel Basin for its consideration and review.

KORDUNER, ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER U" FROM: DAVID F. GONDEK, CITY ATTORNE,� SUBJECT: SUBMISSION OF PROPOSED 4AMENDMENT TO THE CALIFORNIA ADMINISTRATIVE CODE CONCERNING CERTIFICATION PROCEDURES APPLICABLE TO THE CALIFORNIA REGIONAL QUALITY CONTROL BOARD IN CONNECTION WITH APPLICATIONS FOR INERT LANDFILL OPERATIONS AND REQUEST FOR AUTHORIZATION TO INITIATE RUDE MAKING ACTIVITY BY THE CALIFORNIA REGIONAL WATER QUALITY CONTROL BOARD During the City Council meeting of September 26, 1989, a report was presented concerning the need for additional regulation of proposed operations of inert landfill operators insofar as the operation of such projects may affect local groundwater resources. The California Regional Water Quality Control Board (the "Regional Board") currently has authority to impose certain operational conditions upon inert landfill operations if special circumstances warrant. (See Title 23 California Administrative Code Section 2524 (c)). However, there are no current regulations which provide specific assistance to the Regional Board in evaluating proposals in which "special circumstances" are in fact present, or relate such special circumstances to the types of landfill operations control measures which must be implemented in order to insure the safety of local groundwater resources. For the past several weeks, I have been in contact with various experts in the field, including the consulting environmental engineers, as well as Special Counsel regarding this matter. A draft of a proposed rule or amendment of the California Administrative Code applicable to inert landfill development approvals by the Regional Board is attached to this memorandum for your consideration. If the City Council Members believe that the attached draft of the proposed rule adequately addresses at least some of their concerns regarding the preservation and improvement of local groundwater resources, it is my recommendation that this Office be authorized to contact the Regional Board directly or on behalf of the City in an effort to initiate consideration of this matter by the Regional Board at the earliest possible date. A100:wp50:005.5-77/Ah#1 t Gregory D. Korduner November 9, 1969 Page 2 It is also my recommendation that the proposed rule be submitted concurrently to the Watermaster for the San Gabriel Basin for its consideration and review.

The LEA is charged with preparation and enforcement of state -required Solid Waste Facility Permits for solid waste processing and disposal facilities and enforcement of Minimum Standards for Solid Waste Handling and Disposal (Title 14, California Code of Regulations) that pertain to solid waste collection firms and processing/disposal facilities. The Minimum Standards contain many sections that are designated with the letter "H" indicating enforcement by the Health Agency. These sections are similar to those contained in your Public Health Code. That code is enforced by the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services in accordance with the. Health Services Agreement between your City and the County. This Department is willing and has the capability and resources to act as your Local Enforcement Agency. Since this Department, through its Health Services Agreement with each city in the county, is the only county agency serving all the cities, it is best suited for this overall role. The advantages of this Department serving your city as its Local Enforcement Agency are: another layer of government will not be created nor will costs increase: the Department is experienced in all aspects of solid waste management; uniform application of the standards would result; the Department is experienced in coordina- tion of projects; cost-effectiveness for the principals involved would result. If an LEA is not designated by the City, the LEA duties are carried out by the California Waste Management Board and the California Department of Health Services and the City is charged for this service.

Existing law generally prohibits persons administering the Sales and Use Tax Law or the Bradley -Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax Law from disclosing sales and use tax record information to other persons. Among the specified exceptions to this prohibition, the State Board of Equalization is required to permit disclosure of this information to officers and employees of cities and counties for purposes related to the collection of local sales and use taxes which are imposed by the cities and counties and which are administered by the board pursuant to contract. A city or county must request this disclosure by resolution of its legislative body. This bill would broaden this exception to permit disclosure of these tax records to other persons who are tinder contract and meet other specified conditions, and who are designated In the resolution of the legislative body of the city or county which requests disclosure. It would make it unlawful for those persons to retain that information after the person's contract with the county, city and county, or city has expired. It would further permit the officers and employees of the city or county and other persons designated by the resolution to use the tax records for purposes related to other governmental functions set forth in the resolution. This bill would take effect immediately as an urgency statute. The people of the State of California do enact as follows: SECTION 1.

CITY OF DIAMOND BAR AGENDA REPORT --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DATE: January 10, 1990 MEETING DATE: January 16, 1990 TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council VIA: City Manager FROM: Joann M. Saul, Financial Management Assistan, �� ------------------------------------------------------• ------------------------ BACKGROUND: It is required that the City offer its employees disablility insurance either through the State Disability Program or a private carrier. During the research of employee benefits it was found that going through a private carrier would cost employees 1.5 percent of their full salary. If the City obtained disability insurance through the State Disability Program it would cost the employee only .9 percent of their first $25,149 of their wages, a saving of at least .6 percent (not taking into consideration the savings on wages in excess of $25,149). General employees who were present on January 3 were polled to determine if they would like to enroll in the State Disability Program over a long term disablity program with a private carrier. Total eligible employees numbered 10, with 1 being ill on the day, of the poll. The result of the poll was all eligible employees voting to enroll in the State Disability Program. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Pass Resolution 90 -XX certifying an election of the general employees of the City and intent to voluntarily enroll in the State Disability Insurance Program. Authorize staff to procede with filing paperwork with the State of California Employment Development Department to enroll in the State Disablity Program effective January 1, 1990.

Performance evaluation is the process of evaluating and recording the performance of each employee. This does not mean the evaluation of the employee himself. The employee's personal qualities and characteristics should have minor significance except as they relate directly to his performance on the job. The evaluation should be based upon results shown by the employee in carrying out his assigned duties and responsibilities and should be used to help the employee improve his performance. T h e performance evaluation is best used: 1. To maintain a high level of efficiency or assist in raising efficiency by commending the employee. 2. To indicate to the employee those points in which he/she shows weak performance, and suggest the proper means of raising his working performance to the standard level. 3. To inform the employee of good performance which may in turn lead to promotion and higher pay. 4. To encourage better working relationships and mutual understanding by letting the employee know where he stands with relation to his/her supervisor's evaluation of his/her work. Y� r The department head, together with other supervisors familiar with the employee's work, is responsible for proper preparation of the performance evaluation for each employee in that department. The supervisor should carefully review the complete class description, before beginning each evaluation, to remind himself/herself of what should be expected from the employee, consider each item on the evaluation sheet separately in the light of the column definition, and select the column which best describes the work of the employee in each category. The performance evaluation must be discussed with the employee to acquaint him/her with those points in which he/she needs improvement, as well as with those points on which his performance is worthy of commendation. During the interview, as well as on the form, special attention should be given to discussing specific ways in which the employee can improve his/her performance. An opportunity should also be afforded the employee to comment and bring up any questions he or she may have. Performance evaluations for probationary employees are to be prepared at the end of the second month on the job, and again after the first six months, and again after the first eleven months, immediately prior to the completion of the one-year probationary period. After the probationary evaluation, an evaluation shall be done on an annual basis on the employee's anniversary date. Performance evaluation for employees who are already at the top of their salary range shall be prepared on the anniversary of the employee' s reaching the "E" step. This will provide a continuing opportunity for the employee and supervisor to review their work relationship. RULE XX i PART-TIME EMPLOYEES Section 1. Part-time Employees: Part-time employees are employed outside the merit system. Section 2. Recruitment: When a department head desires to fill a part-time position, he should notify the Personnel Officer who will take the necessary steps for recruitment.. Method of examination for the part-time positions will be determined by the Personnel Officer. There need not be a written examination but there must be an oral examination. The oral board will consist of the Personnel Officer and the department or division head involved or his representative. If it is desired, a third oral board member may be added, who will be: selected by the Personnel Officer. This applies to all part -t i m e positions. Section 3. Wage Increases: In order to receive a step increase, a part-time employee must complete one year of service and worked a minimum of 500 hours. If 500 hours have not been worked in one year, the increase may not be granted until 500 hours have been completed. The next increase may then be granted one year later, provided another 500 hours have been worked. Section 4. Status: A part-time employee may be assigned to work a full 8 -hour day or 40 -hour week, as circumstances warrant. However, assignment to such a schedule does not qualify the employee for full time permanent status. ria Part-time and hourly employees normally do not receive benefits that accrue to full time permanent employees. They work strictly on an hourly basis, and receive compensation for the time that they worked only. Part-time hourly employees may be excused for jury duty, but receive no compensation for such time away from work. Part-time employees will be given holidays off, however, they will receive no compensation for said holiday. t ORDINANCE NO. 1 (1990) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DIAMOND BAR ADOPTING BY REFERENCE A NEW DIVISION 2 OF TITLE 20 OF THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY CODE PERTAINING TO SANITARY SEWERS AND INDUSTRIAL WASTE.

KRANZER, CITY ENGINEER l SUBJECT: PETERSON PARK - CHANGE ORDERS NO. 9, 10 AND 11 Presented for your review and approval are Change Orders No. 9, 10 and 11. All change orders are attached for your review, following is a brief summary: Change Order # 9 Extends the curb and gutter from the existing catch basin on the northerly side of the park parking lot to connect with the new trash enclosure. Cost: $402.50 Change Order # 10 Changes the existing and future irrigation heads from Thompsons to Torro brand. Cost: None Change Order # 11 Provides for a safety berm and retaining wall adjacent to the freeway frontage. Cost: $58,000.00 At the December 6, 1989 Council meeting, the City Engineer was given approval to proceed with the design for a safety berm and retaining wall to add on to the existing Carlton J. Peterson Park' project. Said design was completed and a price secured from General Procurement of $58,000.00. This figure is higher than the estimate provided by the Engineer. (Narrative continued on next page if necessary) r'15C;AL IMPACT: ?amount Requested $ Budgeted Amount $ In Account Number: Deficit: $ Revenue Source: ------ Robert L. Van Nort Andrew V. Arczynski Linda Magnuson City Manager City Attorney Sr. Accountant Council Item Peterson Park - Change Orders Page 2 The difference in the estimated cost in December and that now received is primarily in the wall construction. The previous submitted alternate did not have a wall and would probably, based upon final design of the berm, be about $10,000 less to construct. It is suggested because time is of the essence that staff be authorized to further negotiate with the contractor on a price reduction and/or modification to the design that would still provide additional protection, and that whatever is decided upon does not exceed the present bid of $58,000.00. And further, to accommodate the time constraints, the final concept to be approved by the committee of the Council previously established to review the park improvements on behalf of the Council as a whole. If we were to delay the wall and bid this project separately, there would be a number of problems and additional costs. The new contractor would need to charge for equipment move -in on his bid, now the equipment is there. The new irrigation system and landscaping would need to be repaired from heavy equipment traveling over it. The project would have to have bid documents drawn up and go through the bid process (a 45 - 60 day delay). We would therefore recommend that now is the best time to construct said wall. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council approve Change Orders Nos. 9, 10, and 11 with the provision that staff and the above mentioned committee of the Council work toward a product that still provides for the intended protection, but at a lower cost than the $58,000.00 bid received.

KRANZER, CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: PETERSON PARK/RTE 60 PROTECTION BARRIER A meeting was held on site, 11-30-89, with Mr. Louis Quan, Sr. Transportation Engineer of Caltrans to discuss vehicular barrier protection along the common boundary between the park and Route 60 Freeway. At the present time Caltrans is proposing the construction of a guardrail along the north edge of the freeway (see attached sketch). This installation is scheduled for February of 1990. The possibility of a more substantial barrier was discussed e.g.' a reinforced concrete wall that in addition would act as a "sound barrier". Mr. Quan indicated that such a facility was far from meeting any standard presently used by Caltrans for justification, but if the City wished to fund such a project it would be considered. Timing for such a consideration would take the better part of 1990. We then discussed with Mr. Quan our concepts of a berm within the park area and at the bottom of the freeway slope (see attached exhibits). Mr. Quan felt that either of the concepts on the attached exhibit would certainly'add to the protection that the State is prepared to put into place. The proposed added protection by Caltrans will certainly add some degree of safety to the area below the freeway, but is it enough? Certainly by past testimony of some concerned parents it is not. Due to the extreme costs for a combination barrier/sound wall, that possibility is not within the immediate economic future. Economics and timing point towards the berm as an immediate solution, but even this solution is only as real as is the available funding.

KRANZER, CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: RANCHO BANK PORTABLE BUILDINGS Members of our staff have conducted a preliminary investigation of the facility that consists of four individual trailer units all tied together for a total of 2880 sq. ft. Considerable amounts of remedial work will be needed to bring the buildings up to acceptable code plus the costs for moving. Bank representatives indlicate that the under carriages are in -tact and possibly the units could be towed - I have some serious reservations on this aspect and feel that the units would have to be trucked. A very preliminary cost estimate to bring the units up to acceptable code plus transporting and site preparation is about $100,000.00. In square footage terms this is about $35/sq. ft. - a very minimum building for limited non --habitable use would be in the range of $50 to $60 per sq. ft. I understand that it may be possible to acquire the building as a charitable donation.

BACKGROUND On November 21, 1989 the City Council held a public hearing to consider tentative Tract No. 31977. The City Council continued this item, with the consent of the owner, Andrew King, until January 2, 1990. The City Council requested that the owner attempt to "clean up" the tentative map; 1) To eliminate the creation of two remnant properties; a) A substandard triangular parcel adjacent to the project site (owned by Bramalea), and b) A panhandle or :Land strip which would be created within lot #14, and 2) To revise the tentative map to ensure that all proposed lots are created at a minimum of 20,000 square feet. Mr. King is currently negotiating with two adjacent property owners in order to comply with the City Council's request. he has submitted a letter requesting that this item be continued until the City Council meeting of January 16, 1990. RECOMMENDATION The City Council continue this public hearing to the regular scheduled January 16, 1990 City Council meeting.

McFerren Monterey Park, CA 91754 RE: Project 89.097 (Tract Mar) No. 31977) Dear Mr. King: This is a follow up to the meeting held on December 12, 1989 in which the City Engineer and I met with you to discuss Project 89.097. Status - The Diamond Bar City Council continued the public hearing on this tentative map from December 5, 1989 to January 2, 1990. The City Council requested you to do the following: 1. Investigate acquiring the: remnant property north of lot #10, and meet with the staff for the purpose of amending the tentative map to reflect creating lots which are at minimum of 20,000 square feet and reconveying the "panhandle" portion of lot #14 to its adjacent homeowner. This is to summarize the input: the City Engineer and I gave to you on December 12, 1989: 1. There are numerous errors; on the tentative map, (i.e., contour lines drawn which "do not" exist and the absence of building footprints which "do" exist), which must be rectified prior to the staff recommending that the City Council approve the tentative map. Also, a breakdown identifying the area of each proposed lot: must be submitted. 2. We are in receipt of an appraisal which was prepared for the remnant property adjacent to lot #10. This appraisal established a price of $42,000 for the remnant property. In addition, we were told that you offered this "fair market" amount to its owner (Bramalea California). It is my recollection that you stated that Bramalea is r r - Mr. Andrew King Project 89.097 (Tract Map No. 31977) Page Two seeking $250,000 for this property. However, I spoke with Mr. Tim McGinnis, (Bramalea Company) and was informed that his company has had no discussions with you regarding the sale of the remnant parcel. 3. Based upon the direction of the City Council that the "panhandle" portion of lot #14 should be conveyedto its adjacent homeowner, that reconveyance should be identified upon the tentative map, 4. Based upon the direction of the City Council that each newly created lot be at a minimum of 20,000 square feet, lots #14 and #15 will have to become one lot, thus reducing the project from 22 lots to 21 lots, and 5. The application for this project was made in February, 1989. This application identifies the Frank Development Company as the property owner. It is our understanding that you are now the property owner. In order to make our case file legal, please furnish this office with a letter stating the name(s) of the property owner(s) and where the change occurred„ In order to be considered by the City Council on January 2, 1989, the City staff must be in receipt of the above mentioned items no later than 5:00 p.m. December 26, 1989.

The original design was approved as a unit (phase) of Tract No. 36730 and CUP No. 1731. The current request is substantially the same as these previous approvals with only minor adjustments to lot lines. Since five of the six units (phases) of the previous approval have already recorded and have been developed, CUP 1731 has unquestionably been used and has no expiration date. The remaining undeveloped unit (phase) now covered by Tentative Tract No. 31977 is still a part of CUP 1731 and must conform to its conditions. It is, therefore, our opinion that there is no need for CUP 89097 and that the proposed tentative map can serve as a Revised "Exhibit A" for CUP 1731. hile there are other problems that must be solved ri r to scheduling Tentative 'Tract No. 31977 for public hearing, we hope this letter clarifies our position concerning the adequacy of CUP 1731.

LIND 44 South Chester Avenue Pasadena, California 91106 (818) 449-3161 April 27, 1989 Impact Analysis Section Department of Regional Planning 320 West Temple Street Los Angeles, CA 90012 Attention: Julie Cook/Frank Kuo Subject: Request for Review Material, dated April 20, 1989 Project No. 89097 (Tract No. 31977) Some background is provided herewith to assist your review of Tract 31977. This tract was originally a unit of Tract 36730/CUP 1731. The unit was never recorded and is the last undeveloped site of the Diamond Bar Development consisting of 1974 dwelling units over 1360± acres in total. Tract 36730 (163 units) and Tract 37075 (1811 units) were considered jointly as one development by the Regional Planning Commission. The environmental documents (of which you have) were prepared for the entire 1360± acre development. A map of all the units for both Tracts 36730 and 37075 is provided to illustrate where Tract 31977 fits in. Please note that the number of units and the=ir design have not changed. Lot lines have merely been extended to provide ownership of the open space areas. Instead of continuing to process Advision to Diamond Bar) has agreed as part of CUP 1731 and a Revised tentative tract. CUP 89097, Rudy Lackner (Planning that this project will be considered Exhibit A will be processed with the The following is in response to your request for additional information. I. Final EIR for Tract 36730 and 37075 consists of the three documents: The Preliminary Draft, Addendum (which includes responses to com- ments) and Addendum II dated May 1, 1981, (which discusses changes to the original design with a separate addendum to the Traffic Analysis attached). All three have been submitted with the Initial Study Questionnaire. 2. Proof and Date of Certification of that EIR The Regional Planning Commission certified the Final EIR with approval of Conditional Use Permit 1731 and 1735 on July 1, 1981. When the Board of Supervisors adopted findings and conditions for Impact Analysis Section Re: Tract No. 319 Tracts 35730 and 37075 on October 13, previously approved final EIR was adequate. April 27, 1989 Page 2 of 2 1981, it found that the 3. Letter with Supporting Data Regarding Applicability of Prior EIR to Proposed Project (Factor by Factor): The following factors were identified by Julie Cook in a phone conversation on April 24, 1989: a. Geotechnical - A revised geology and soils report is being pre- pared for submittal to the Department of Public Works. b. Biota - A revised quad sheet is attached to illustrate that the project site was erroneously located on the original submittal. As you will note, there is no blue line water course on the site. c. Traffic - An addendum to the original traffic analysis was done for the final revised design for- Tract 36730/CUP 1951. The conclusion was that while the revision cause an increase on some streets and decrease on others, the daily volumes remain below theoretical capacities on all streets. CUP 1731 made findings (See #26 of attached finding page) and conditions (See #30 of attached conditions page) for the widening of Diamond Bar Boulevard and Grand Avenue, provision of left turn lanes and signalization. These improvements were considered the direct mitigation of any traffic impacts. In addition, the total number of daily trips generated by this development is below the usual 500 trips per day threshold you use as a reason for requesting a traffic analysis. d. Education A school site was provided to the Pomona Unified School District when Tract 42582 was recorded. Any fees required as a result of more recently enacted legislation will be paid. e. Utilities - Water Two water tank sites were provided with the recordation of Tracts 31479 and 42580. The water lines are already installed in the rights-of-way surrounding Tract 31977. In light of the background on this project and the fact that the last two units of Tract 36730 were recorded as late September, 1987, we feel that there is adequate environmental documentation without requiring a new EIR. Mitigation measures were implemented to offset any significant impacts resulting from the entire Diamond Bar Development.

Addendum No. 1 to the Draft EIRs for Conditional Use Permit No. 1735/Tentative Tract No. 37075, Conditional Use Permit No. 1731/Tentative Tract No. 36730, and Zone Change Case No. 81-003 prepared by the planning staff (dated May 1, 1981); and 6. Addendum No. 2 to the Draft EIRs for Conditional Use Permit No. 1735/Tentative Tract No. 37075, Conditional Use Permit No. 1731, Zone Change Case No. 81-003 prepared by the planning staff (dated June 10, 1981). It is important to note that the intent of an. EIR is to serve as an informational document and to show a good faith effort by pro- viding a full public disclosure of the physical impacts a proposed project may have. An EIR is not a technical document and the evaluation of impacts need not be exhaustive. Disagreement among experts does not make an EIR inadequate. The environmental docu- mentation process emphasizes the need to discuss significant environmental impacts, mitigation measures, and alternatives. As part of the public review process, the Draft EIRs were available for public input for thirty (30) days prior to the public hearing held by the Regional Planning Commission on June 3, 1981. Neither oral nor written comments regarding the adequacy of the EIR were received during this public review period, including the public hearing. However, during the review period, an architect special- izing Jr hillside designs submitted an overview of the project's design on behalf of the applicant (on file). The planning staff also received a copy of the Revised Draft EIR for the Chino Hills Acquisition Pro'ect Phase II from the State Department of Parks and Recreation file). Part of the project site is shown for future (unspecified date) acquisition by the State. The "Architect -Planner's Commentary" is "limited to the aspects of land planning, with special consideration of hillside conditions and no intention of offering a second opinion in matters of geology, engineering, or environmental protection." The Com- mentary is basically an overview of the ;project, its merits, and a variety of design suggestions that could be incorporated into the project. At the public hearing, the applicant's engineer discussed some of the commentary's suggestions for redesign, and indicated to the Regional Planning Commission the feasibility of their incorporation into the project. The incorporation of these suggestions into the project's design would not havea significant impact on the environment; they may not, however, be economically feasible or desirable to the applicant. The Revised Draft EIR for the Chino Hills Acquisition: Project Phase II identifies approximately 150 acres of the central easterly portion of the site as within the third priority acquisition pro- gram. The subject property comprises approximately one-tenth of the third priority acquisition area. The EIR is for long-range planning purposes and does not imply a land acquisition commitment. It should be noted that the State Department of Parks and Recrea- tion was notified of the proposed projects through the State Clearinghouse as a part of the reviewing process. No comments were received from them.

In aouition, the applicant requested a change of zone (Zone Change Case No. bl-003) from RPL 4U,UGU-lU, RPU 20,000-2u, R-1-10,000, k-i-1U,UUU, k-3-b,0UU-15U, R-1-b,0UG, and R-3-8,UU0-3UU to RPD 20,000- 2U over portions of both project sites to accommodate the proposed atuvelopments. inasmuch as the environmental impacts of the proposed zone change are suostantially the same as those of the proposed tentative tracts and conditional use permits, the Draft EIRs for the atorementxoneo projects and this Addendum shall also serve as the environmental document for the zone change. Tr,e reviseu designs for both projects include changes in the total numuer of lots, ana a redesign of the proposed developments' street patterns, incluuing changes on major access points. The revised design for Conditional Use Permit No. 1735/Tentative Tract No. 37U75 (hereinafter referred to by the tract number) includes a decrease in ttie total number of lots from 1,b57 to 1,b3b. The current design consists of: l,bll single-family residential lots, six lots for private recreation areas, one lot for a school site, one lot for a fire station site, twelve open, space lots, two lots for ;public park sites, ano two lots for water tanxs. The revised design for Tentative Tract No. 36730 incluues an increase in the total number of lots from 134 to lbb. The current design consists of 163 single family residential lots, and five open space lots. 1`he Lratt LIR for this project evaluates ten (10) environmental factors. The revised tract design reauces the impacts evaluated in the original project. The revised analysis for each factor is as follows. 1. Geologic/Soil Hazards The development of the proposea 1,b35 lots proposed in Tentative Tract No. 37075 will entail the movement of approximately the same amount of earth materials (11,046,UUU cubic yards) as required for the original design. Development is no longer proposed for the westerly portion of the east -west trending central ridgeline. The current proposal, however, includes, the extension of aevelopment along a minor east -west trending r.idgeline, and along the lower elevations of the eastern boundary of I tiie southerly portion,-oi the site. ' areas of potential landslides. bane available on each lot. Development ..11 still occur in building sites, however, are The development of the lbb lots proposed in Tentative Tract No. 3b73U will entail the movement of approximately the same amount of earth materials (854,000 cubic yards) as required for the original design. vrackng activities will occur basically in the same areas as proposed in the original design. It is anticipated that additional yeologic/ soils hazards will not be encountered as a result of the redesiyn. .4. Flood hazard A substantial change in runoff or drainage patterns, from the original design, is not anticipated for either project. Flood hazards can be mitigatea provided the appropriate codes and ordinances are followed. J. Fire hazard Inasmuch as the combined number of homesites (1974) for the projects is nearly identical to the original submittals, significant changes in the number of residential fires should not occur. The current design of Tentative Tract No. 37075 includes the provision of a site for a future fire station. The construction, manning, and equipping of the station, however, isnot a :art of the proposed project; it is dependent upon tending from the Board of Supervisors. upon completion of the station, response time for emergency services to locations in this area will Le siynificantly reduced. Access to the sites remains acceptable to the Fire Department. 4. Noise The proposed redesigns include a revision of street patterns. Traffic by both projects along hancheria Road will reduced as compared to the original designs. Traffic along other area streets (e.g., Carpio Drive, brand Avenue) will be increased. The increase in traffic along these streets should not, however, create a significant noise impact for area residents. The redesign of Tentative Tract No. 37075 also includes the elimina- tion of structures within the 65 CNEL contour located along the northerly portion of the site, adjacent to the Pomona Freeway. Small portions of a few lots, however, are located within that corridor. All lots within the b5 and bU CULL contours will be subject to conditions outlined in Attachment No. [ of the vratt k.lh with regara to a require- ment for an acoustical analysis and identification of impacted lots in the State Department of Real Estatets Public Report. 5. Air duality A substantial change in impacts is not anticipated since the number 1 ti of rus'idential units is nearly identical. b. biota Approximately 692 acres or 57% of Tentative Tract No. 37075 will remain unaltered. The redesign also designates approximately 540 acres as open -Space. Approximately b3.4 acres or 6016 of Tentative Tract No. 3b7sU will remain unaltered. This includes the designation of approxi- mately 70 acres as open space. When combined, approximately 57% of the overall area of the tracts will remain undisturbed. This overall area compares to 767 acres (bb% of the site), in the: original design. wild - lite corridors will be provided between some of these open space areas. 7. Scenic vualities Tne redesign of Tentative Tract No. 37075 removes development (approxi- mately 1bO lots) from the most visible portions of the east -west trending central riageline and from areas immediately adjacent to the Pomona Freeway. Additional homes, however, have been relocated in the northerly portion of the site. Homes, will also be built along a less pro- minent northwesterly trending ridge that accommodates homes along b Avenue/A Street. Thus, the vast majority of homes to oe built on the site, excluding those to be built on D Avenue/A Street, will not be visiole to adjoining property owners. Twelve open space lots will oe providea on the site. The redesign of Tentative `tract No. 3b73U includes the designation of two adaitional lots as open space (for a total of five on the site). U,he layout of tt,e lots will remain basically unchanged from the original design. The vast majority of homes to be built on this site will not be visible to adjoining property owners. b. `1'rattic/Access The revised design change access points between the tracts and the external highway circulation system, and traffic volumes at each access point. The Addendum to the Traffic Analysis describes these changes in detail (see Attachment No. 1). The revised project will generate traffic onto area streets, as follows: TRIP GE,NHRATION Dwelling Access Point Units Daily AM Peak PM Peak Grand Avenue 1,064 11,760 1,060 1,060 "L)" Avenue 3b7* 40400 370 370 Rancheria Drive ly 350 40 30 Car io Drive 514 6,170 510 510 TOTAL I,S 4 23,6dU 1,970 ity 0 * Includes all 163 dwelling units from Tentative Tract No. 36730.

Although the tratfic analysis indicated that LOS D is an acceptable design capacity, LUS C is a more acceptable design capacity for this area. The realignment of "G" Street would eliminate a considerable amount of tratfic which was previously expected to use Carpio Drive. The current design will also result in less traffic on established residential streets; slightly less traffic at the intersection of Diamond Bar Boule- vard and Golden Springs Drive; an improvement in the distribution of tratfic at various access points which would result in reduced traffic volumes; and, an elimination of a considerable amount of traffic which was previously expected to use Rancheria Road. The new access at the intersection of "b" Avenue (Tin Drive) and Diamond Bar Boulevard may require signalization.

Source: Addendum to Traffic Analysis, Tables 4, 4A, and 4B. 4 to reduce the impacts of the project: Prior to recordation of Tentative Tract No. 37075 the applicant shall t,ond with the Los Angeles County Road Department, for the following improvements to the satisfaction of the Road Department: 1. widening of Diamond Bar boulevard northerly and southerly of Golden Springs Drive, the provision of dual lett turn lanes at the intersection of Diamona bar 13oulevard and Golden Springs Drive, appropriate signal modification, and reconstruc- tion of the median. 1. hideninv of Grand Avenue from one to two travel lanes in each direction from Diamond Bar boulevard to the easterly tract entrance, approximately one mile east of Diamond bar boulevard. This would require widening of the north and south barrels of Grand Avenue tjy 6 feet ano the provision of lett lanes at Cleghorn Drive and at the tract entrance. 3. Possit,le signalization of the intersection of Tin Drive and Diamond bar Boulevard. It should ue noteci that the provision of dual left turn lanes with- out the widening of Diamond bar Boulevard would require narrower travel lanes ano the removal of the bike lane/right turn lane at the intersections which would compromise traffic safety. 9. Education The revised design of these projects will not generate additional students to the walnut Valley Unified School District and the Pomona Unified School District. The revised design for Tentative Tract No. 37075 however, includes an 11 acre school site that will be offered to the Pomona Unified School District for use as an elementary school. It is anticipates that this school will accommodate 5U0 elementary age students. Therefore, the 362 elementary school age students generated by Tentative Tract No. 37075 in combination with the 33 students generated by Tentative Tract No. 3b730 would not exceed the capacity of the future school. Enrollment problems, however, still exist at the elementary school level in the Walnut Valley Unified School District. The Pomona Unified School District is no longer interested in revising the location of the boundary between their district and the walnut Valley Unified School District. IU. Fire/Sheriff Services The redesign will not change the number of calls for the services 5 of 'the: Pire i,epartment and the Office of the Sheriff. The revised design, however, includes the allocation of a U.b acre site for use as a tire station on Tentative Tract No. 37075. As indicated in the aiscussion of Fire Hazards, the development of a functioning tire station will depenu upon tundiny from the ]Board of Supervisors. It is the opinion of the stats of the Department of Regional Planning that the Uratt bih, when combined with this Addendum, adequately dis- cusses the environmental impacts associated with the development of Tentative 'Tract No. 37U75/Conaitional Use Permit No. 1735, Tentative Tract No. 3b73U/Conditional Use Permit No. 1731 and Zone Change Case No. bl-UU3. The Draft EIR describes project generated impacts that are more siyniticant than those associated with the proposed redesign.

Ahlering and Associates 645 E. South State College Boulevard Fullerton. CA 92631 Dear Mr. Ahlering: This letter is the sixth addendum to our traffic analysis of Tentative Tract (T.T.) No. 37075 and 36730 dated November 12, 1979, in the Diamond Bar area of Los Angeles County. We have been requested to analyze the impact of a revised map of these tracts by Lind b Hillerud, Inc. The revised nap, dated April 23, 1981, is the second revision of the tract asap dated December 12, 1980. The first revision is dated March 17, 1981. The revised map includes changes of the internal circulation system as well as changes in the location of the lots. These will change the traffic volumes at each access point with the exception of Rancheria Drive. The access points remain the same. The number of lots have also been changed. The number of lois of T.T. No. 37075 has been reduced from 1843 to 1811 and Lhe number of lots for T.T. No. 36730 has been increased from 1.31 to 163. The total number of lots remains unchanged at 1974. This analysis also includes the impact of T.T. Nos. 38842, 38844. 37888. and 357762 which were included in our previous addendums to T.T. Nos. 37075 and 36730. Table 1 lists the daily and peak hour trip generation rates and estimated volumes for the seven tentative tracts and includes the changes in a number of lots for T.T. Nos. 37075 and 36730. The estimated daily traffic from all seven tracts remains 34,230 with 2920 during the peak hours. Table 2 lists the estimated daily and peak hour traffic volumes expected to be: generated through each of the four access points to T.T. 37075 and 36730 due to the changes dicussed above. The expected daily traffic volumes will be decreased from 14,220 to 12,770 on Grande Avenue, increased from 3690 to 4400 on "'D" Avenue and increased from 2651 EAST CHAPMAN AVENUE + WITE 110 + FULLERTON.

Figure 3 shows the revised existing plus project plus other development daily traffic volumes on the circulation system in the project area. Table 3 shows a comparison of the daily vehicle volumes to their respective capacities at selected locations of the circulation system. As shown on Table 3 the revised existing plus project plus other development traffic volumes are all less than the theoretical daily capacities. Also. the revised existing plus project plus other development traffic volumes on the freeways in the vicinity of the project are well below the freeway capacities, which are shown on Figure 4. Table 4 shows the revised ICU calculations for the intersection of Diamond Bar Boulevard/Golden Springs Drive for existing, existing plus project, and existing plus project plus other development traffic for the PM peak hour. As shown in Table 4 the ICU would increase from 0.71 to 0.74 at IAS C for existing plus project traffic and would increase from 0.79 at LOS C to 0.82 at LOS D for existing plus project plus other development traffic. Although 7LOS D has greater traffic congestion than LOS C, it is still considered an acceptable level of service. The above-mentioned ICU values could be reduce to 0.59 at LOS A for existing plus project traffic and 0.64 at LOS 3 for existing plus project plus other development traffic by adding a second southbound left turn lune on Diamond Bar Boulevard at Golden Springs Drive. Table 4A shows the revised calculations for existing, existing plus project, and existing plus project plus other development traffic during the PM peak hour using T.T. 37075 as the only project traffic. The existing plus project traffic.ICU increases from 0.71 to 0.74 at LOS C and the existing plus project plus other development traffic increases from 0.79 at LOS C to 0.82 at LOS D. As previously mentioned. LOS D is considered an acceptable level of service. Table 43 is the revised ICU calculations for the same information using T.T. 36730 as the only project traffic.
