finds the Specific Plan is consistent with the General Plan of the City of Azusa ("General Plan") and
systematically implements the goals and objectives of the General Plan. The Rosedale Specific Plan
contains site specific standards, guidelines and regulations for implementing the specific plan in
conformity with the City's General Plan, including its adopted goals and objectives. A complete
listing of applicable goals and objectives addressed, implemented, and/or furthered by the adoption
of the Rosedale Specific Plan is found in Section 7 (General Plan Consistency) of the Rosedale
Specific Plan document and have been considered by the City Council during their deliberations.
This section demonstrates thatthe Rosedale Specific Plan addresses, implements or furthers over 55
individual goals and objectives. Additionally, adoption of the Rosedale Specific Plan will not
obstruct the attainment of many other goals and objectives contained in the City's General Plan. As
a result, the City Council hereby finds that the Rosedale Specific Plan is consistent with the City
of Azusa General Plan including all of the adopted elements thereof.
SECTION 2. The Specific Plan promotes an appropriate distribution, location, and
extent of the land uses, including open space. The Specific Plan proposes primarily residential uses
and some commercial uses that are generally consistent with uses surrounding the Subject Site, i.e.,
residential uses of varying densities to the east and west of the site; residential, commercial,
industrial, and institutional uses south of the site; and open space north of the site. With the
modifications to the Specific Plan as set forth in the Conditions of Approval listed below as Exhibit
"B" and the mitigation measures adopted as part of the project EIR, the proposed residential
densities will be consistent with those of surrounding uses. Further, the Specific Plan provides for
the preservation of 225 acres of natural open space and the provision of 17 additional acres of
developed open space appropriately distributed throughout the specific plan area.
SECTION 3. The Specific Plan promotes an appropriate distribution, location, and
extent and intensity of major components of public and private transportation, sewage, water,
drainage, solid waste disposal, energy, and other essential facilities proposed to be located within
the Specific Plan area and needed to support the land uses within the Subject Site. The Specific Plan
includes provisions for the appropriate distribution, location, extent and intensity of the following
services and facilities:

and standards for the conservation, development, and utilization of natural resources, where
applicable. The Specific Plan contains extensive development regulations and design guidelines
which, along with the Conditions of Approval, include a series of design elements (mandatory and
encouraged) that establish development standards for subdivision and site planning (neighborhood
character, lot size, housing type diversity, unit setbacks, parkways and landscaping character, park
and trail development, etc.), as well as architectural character (garage and driveway variation, views,
porches, facade articulation, walls and fencing character, etc.) Further, the EIR mitigation measures
and the Conditions of Approval require that the applicant:

FINAL
Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program
Rosedale Specific Plan
City of Azusa
January 14, 1999
This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program has been prepared pursuant to the
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Section 21081.6 and
Section 15099 of the State CEQA Guidelines. The purpose of this program is to document
implementation of mitigation measures required by the Final Environmental Impact Report
(Final EIR) for the Rosedale Specific Plan and by the January 14, 1999 Summary of Minor
Modifications to Final Environmental Impact Report (Summary).
The City of Azusa has adopted the mitigation measures included in the Final EIR and the
Summary to mitigate or avoid significant impacts on the environment. This program has been
designed to ensure compliance during project implementation.
Mitigation measures identified in the Final EIR and the Summary have been incorporated into
the checklist included as part of this program. Each mitigation measure is numbered as it
appears in the Summary and is listed with appropriate spaces for monitoring the progress of
implementation. The following information is identified for each measure:
• When the measure will be implemented; for example, one time only, prior to
construction, during construction, prior to occupancy, or once the project has been
completed and homes occupied on an ongoing basis.
• How the measure will be implemented; i.e. through existing code and other requirements;
through requirements imposed on all individual projects; or as needed.
• What City departments or other agencies will be responsible for verifying the mitigation
and responding to violations.
The mitigation monitoring program checklist is to be retained in the project file and available
for public inspection on proper request.
Annual Review of Mitigation Monitoring Program
Oversight of the Mitigation Monitoring Program will be the responsibility of the Azusa
Planning Division (Planning). Planning may assign responsibilities as appropriate and
necessary. Planning staff will undertake an annual review of the Mitigation Monitoring
Program and prepare a brief progress memorandum based on that review. The memorandum
0 0
should be transmitted to the Planning Commission and City Council for review and any
appropriate action.
The reviewer will check each mitigation measure listed in the Mitigation Monitoring Program
to determine whether or not implementation has been completed. If the mitigation measure
has been completed, the reviewer will indicate such on the report, initialing and dating the
notation to indicate compliance.
For measures that require a report, program, or plan, the reviewer should determine if that
report, program, or plan is due based on the progress program implementation to date. If the
report, program, or plan is timely, that fact should be reported in a review memorandum to the
head of the responsible City department.
For measures that require ongoing compliance, the memorandum should report whether these
measures are being actively pursued and if not, what action is appropriate. If the measures are
no longer appropriate or necessary because the environmental effect is no longer an issue, then
that fact should be reported in the review memorandum and the discontinuation of the
mitigation measure recommended. If measures are not being implemented adequately,
recommendations should be made to improve application of the mitigation measure.
Project Design Mitigation Measures
A project design mitigation measure is a measure that needs to be incorporated into the project
design, for example, inclusion of the earthquake setback zones and drainage improvements.
Such measures normally will be shown on the building plans, site plans, public improvement
plans, specifications, or other project documents. The mitigation monitoring checklist will be
used to check off those mitigation measures shown on the plans. If a mitigation measure is
not shown on the appropriate plan sheets, plans will be sent back for incorporation of those
mitigation measures or approved equivalents. Plans will not be approved until each mitigation
measure is incorporated into the project design.
After plans are approved, and before any component of design is approved as complete by the
City in its inspection, the project proponents will submit proof that each mitigation measure
shown on the plans has been installed or incorporated into the constructed project.
Verification of compliance will then be noted on the monitoring checklist and signed off,
completing the process for this category of mitigation measure.
0 0
Construction Mitigation Measures
Construction mitigation measures are measures designed to reduce the impacts of construction
and generally are required throughout the construction phase. Monitoring will be verified by
the Building Division and City Engineer as appropriate during regular visits to the sites during
construction. Reporting of compliance with mitigation measures should be required at least
monthly, with reports of violations made immediately to the appropriate department.
Operational Mitigation Measures
Operational mitigation measures are those that apply over the longer term, once homes have
been constructed, sold, and occupied. These mitigation measures should be verified on an
annual basis and if problems are noted, reinspected on a more regular basis until the measure
is operating effectively.
Use of Contractors
The monitoring program for measures to be incorporated into project design parallels current
City practices of verifying compliance with applicable City codes during design and
construction. No additional staffing is required, except that training may be appropriate to
alert inspectors to the new requirements and the use of the monitoring checklist. In case of
some specific unique or unusual mitigation measures, the City may contract with consultants
for inspection or verification of mitigation measures.
Monitoring Program Fees
Where mitigation monitoring efforts are substantial, the City is authorized to charge mitigation
monitoring fees to support the actual costs of mitigation monitoring. In such cases, the City
will charge and collect from the developer a fee in the amount of the anticipated actual cost
to the City for monitoring all.mitigation measures, including consultant services and costs of
administration. A deposit may be required by the City to be applied toward this fee. Any
unused portion of the deposit will be refunded. In circumstances in which the developer will
not be associated with the project after construction, the City can charge the anticipated cost
of operation of the mitigation monitoring program for an appropriate period in advance.
Sanctions/Penalties
The City may levy sanctions or penalties for violations of conditions listed in the monitoring
program. These sanctions and penalties may include but are not limited to:
Civil penalties/fines according to City codes
�J
"Stop work" orders
Revocation of permits
Holding issuance of Certificate of Occupancy until completion of work
Forfeiture of performance bond
Implementation of measures with appropriate charges to the applicant based on
mitigation monitoring program agreements
Dispute Resolution
In the event of a disagreement between the City and project applicant/developer regarding the
monitoring program, including manner of payment, penalties for noncompliance, and financial
security arrangements, the following procedure, or other appropriate procedure, will be
followed:
City staff will attempt to resolve the disagreement. If the disagreement cannot be
resolved, staff will prepare a report documenting the source of the dispute and the City's
position.
2. City staff will take the report before the City Council as appropriate, which will determine
the resolution of the disagreement.

This improvement will require removal of the raised median on
Public Works
the east approach (westbound), and potentially widening of the
northeast corner, moving the curb line to the north by three feet,
and narrowing the sidewalk or obtaining additional right-of-way to
maintain the existing sidewalk width.
3. Citrus Avenue/Baseline Road: The applicant shall modify the
Pocc

southbound approach to add an exclusive right turn lane, which
would require roadway widening of approximately seven feet for
Planning
a total length of 100 to 150 feet (exact length to be determined).
Additional right-of-way would be required to maintain sidewalks.
Public Works
Widening of Citrus Avenue at this location would require the
relocation of an existing single-family residence located in the
northwest corner of the Citrus Avenue/Baseline Road intersec-
tion, as well as the relocation of an existing bus stop. The envi-
ronmental impacts of these physical changes would be required
to be analyzed prior to mitigation action.
4. Citrus Avenue/1-210 Eastbound OH -Ramp: The applicant shall

widen the eastbound off -ramp to provide dual left turn lanes in
addition to a single right turn lane. Currently, the off -ramp is 28

feet wide curb -to -curb, within a 48 foot right-of-way. Therefore,
this improvement can be accomplished within the existing right-

measures include:
• Installation of curb extensions/chokers;
• Realignment of the roadway to accommodate mid -block
chokers;
• Addition of stop signs;
• Addition of pavement markings; and/or
• Installation of movable radar speed control devices.
The developer shall fund the design and construction of these
measures, as well as conduct a series of before and after studies
of Ninth Street and other local streets connecting to Ninth Street.
All measures shall be approved by the City's Traffic Engineer.
The "before" study shall be completed prior to City action on any
tentative tract map other than Vesting Tentative Tract Map 52263.
The "after" study shall be conducted upon the completion of
Phase 1. Subsequent "after" studies shall be conducted at
regular intervals (at the completion of Phase 2, Phase 3, and
when 50% of Phase 4 residences are occupied). The after stud-
ies shall conclude when 50% of the Phase 4 residential units are
occupied. The studies shall consist of 24-hour average daily
traffic counts taken over a period of several days, in conjunction
with radar speed surveys.

Sensitive Habitat

Beatty Canyon represents a drainage area that falls under the jurisdic-
tion of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (pursuant to Section 404 of
the Federal Clean Water Act) and the CDFG (Section 1600 [Stream
Alteration Agreement] of the State Fish and Game Code). Because
less than 1/3 of an acre will be affected, the project is automatically
approved on the Corps under NWP No. 26. The CDFG mitigation
standard for this area and its plant communities is no net loss of
habitat acreage or habitat values. Therefore, project mitigation will
require replacement on a 1:1 basis, although precise mitigation is
subject to a negotiation agreement. On-site mitigation for this habitat
loss is possible, as is off-site mitigation in the San Gabriel River or its
tributary canyons. Alternatively, the project could be redesigned to
avoid development in or near Beatty Canyon and thereby eliminate
the potential impact. The City will work with the developer to choose
the most appropriate mitigation option. The two mitigation options
are:
1 a. Prior to the approval of any grading plan affecting Beatty Canyon,

ducted at the Cliff House (no longer standing) to identify the

potential of this site to yield further information.
Previous research by CRMS did not address the potential for
buried historical archaeological remains in the area of the Cliff
House or at the 1910 residence. This was due to the fact that
both structures were standing at the time of the initial report; both
structures have been demolished since 1992. The potential for
significant subsurface remains in the form of features, trash pits,
and privies are a very real archaeological concern, especially
since the structures have been removed. Buried remains are
often the only link to the past when written history and standing
structures no longer exist.
6. Characteristics and historical background of the millstone shall
