development framework as set forth in a booklet prepared by U.R.S
Corporation, Anil Verma Associates, and Solstice Design
Associates, entitled "Design Guidelines and Development
Framework, Central City South Study Area/San Bernardino,
California", as on file with the City Clerk of the City of San
Bernardino, is hereby approved and adopted, subject to the
following modifications:
On pages 122 and 123, commencing with the paragraph
numbered I, Preliminary Conference, the text is amended to read
as follows:
2
. MC-544
'; .
1 "I. Preliminary Conference. The Developer confers
2 informally with the City to identify potential development issues
3 including: scope of the project, potential design issues and
4 concerns, requirements including these Guidelines, compliance
5 with the California Environmental Quality Act, and the City's
6 processing of the project. Information required on the
7 developer's submission will be determined. A City Project
8 Coordinator will be assigned to be liaison between the developer
9 and the review committee. A determination will be made whether
10 the project may be submitted directly to the Development Review
11 Committee or whether it must first receive City Council and/or
12 Planning Commission approval.
13 II. Development Review Application. A site plan and
14 other information determined to be needed will be submitted with
15 a Development Review Application. The City reviews and responds
16 within ten days.
17 III. Council/Commission Review Application. A site plan
18 and other required information will be submitted with the
19 appropriate application to the Planning Department. The City
20 reviews and responds in thirty to sixty days depending on the
21 type of application.
22 IV. Over the Counter Review. This review is used for
23 smaller projects such as minor additions and signs. Within a
24 maximum of five business days, the construction drawings are
25 returned. If approved as submitted, the developer may submit to
26 Plan Check. If there are conditions, the applicant will resubmit
27 within thirty days. Notice of satisfactory compliance will be
28 given within ten days of resubmission.

V. Development Review Committee. The Committee reviews
projects and may render a decision in as little as ten days. If
there are revisions necessary, the drawings would need to be
reviewed. Once evaluated and approved by the Committee, the
project is then submitted for Plan Check. Generally, Plan Check
takes no more than thirty days for smaller projects and sixty to
ninety days for larger projects.
VI. Compliance with California Environmental Qualitv Act
(CEOA). All submitted projects requiring City Council and/or
Planning Commission approval will be reviewed by the City
Environmental Review Committee (ERC). The ERC will determine
whether a particular project is exempt from CEQA, qualifies for a
Negative Declaration or will require an Environmental Impact
Report. Projects which may be submitted directly to the
Development Review Committee are typically exempt from CEQA,
although the more complex ones may have certain environmental
impacts which warrant review and action by the ERC."
SECTION 3. The design standards established by the design
guidelines and development framework hereby adopted shall not
replace or supersede current street design standards established
by the City Engineer. Any deviation from current standards will
require specific approval of the City Engineer.
SECTION 4. Any violation of the terms of this Ordinance
shall be an infraction, subject to punishment under the
provisions of San Bernardino Municipal Code Section 1.12.010.
SECTION 5. The City Clerk, in conjunction with the
Planning Director, shall cause to be recorded in the Office of
the San Bernardino County Recorder, notice to all affected
