RECOMMENDATION: Based on the information contained in this staff report staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution No. PC 2025-____; and, forward the recommendation to the City Council to: 1. Determine that the proposed amendments are consistent with the Fontana General Plan and certified General Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR) (State Clearinghouse No. 2016021099) and so qualifies for an exemption from CEQA, specifically Public Resources Code 21083.3 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 and Section 7 of the Local 2019 Guidelines for implementing CEQA, as the proposed amendments will have no new or more severe significant environmental effects “peculiar to” the Ordinance than discussed in the certified EIR and will have no significant off-site and cumulative impacts not discussed in that EIR as long as all applicable mitigation measures in the certified EIR will be undertaken; and, 2. Approve a Resolution recommending that the City Council adopt an Ordinance for Municipal Code Amendment (MCA) No. 25-0007 and amend Chapter 30 of the Municipal Code.
