37. Authorization to proceed with the de -annexation of a 3.62-acre parcel of
land generally located at the northeast corner of the city at the top of
Church Street
Council Member/Commissioner McCammack expressed concern regarding the
de -annexing of almost four acres to the City of Highland, thereby giving up a
potentially developable piece of land that might have added as much as $25,000
a year net to the City's tax base. She also expressed surprise that the
Legislative Review Committee members didn't at least insist that we swap some
land for this piece of property —possibly something closer to the air base where
we have had a lot of development activity. She stated that she understood that it
would be costly for the City to provide certain types of services to this island of
property; however, we do charge the public for services that we provide for
refuse, water, etc.
Council Member/Commissioner McCammack made a motion that the Mayor
and Council direct the City Attorney's office to draw up language that restricts
the City of Highland to doing exactly what the staff report is proposing that they
will do with this piece of property, which is simply to build single family
residences as opposed to apartments.
The motion failed for lack of a second.
Council Member/Commissioner Derry advised that this property is basically
landlocked because it sits on a cliff —that the only access to the property is
through the City of Highland, and it would be expensive to provide services to
this area because it is only going to be approximately five homes. He stated it is
not just a matter of revenue —it's a matter of good government. In fact, it
probably should have been included in the City of Highland years ago when they
originally incorporated because they are the only governmental agency that can
truly serve it in a manner that our constituents would expect to be served. He
stated he did not believe in a land swap because this property would cost more
19 09/06/2005
to service than we would get in tax base. He stated it would be a net loss to the
City of San Bernardino and in the long run other taxpayers in San Bernardino
would be subsidizing the services to these five homes.
Council Member/Commissioner Kelley stated that he does not support any
apartments anywhere in the City of San Bernardino; and he was confident,
based on the information that they had at LRC, that this will be a residential
development and not an apartment complex.
Council Member/Commissioner Johnson stated that during the LRC meeting
they looked at the pros and cons before they came to this decision, and all things
considered, this is just the right thing to do.
Council Member/Commissioner Derry made a motion, seconded by Council
Member/Commissioner Johnson, that the Director of Development Services be
authorized to initiate proceedings for the de -annexation of a 3.62-acre parcel of
land generally located at the northeast corner of the city at the top of Church
Street.
The motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Council Members/
Commissioners Estrada, Longville, McGinnis, Derry, Kelley, Johnson. Nays:

49. Public Comments
Deanna Adams, 1156 North "F" Street, San Bernardino, CA, questioned why
the City would give land to the San Bernardino Municipal Water District (North
Lake Project) and stated that this project has to be mitigated. She stated that in
approving the plan, the Council failed the citizens of San Bernardino, that it will
be nothing more than a watering hole, and she recommended renovation of the
existing homes instead.
Chris Tobar, 103 East 49' Street, San Bernardino, CA, asked what was being
done as a city to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina, and what more could be
done. He requested that the flags throughout the city be lowered to half-staff in
memory of the hurricane victims.
City Administrator Wilson repeated his announcement from earlier in the
meeting that two businesses who contract with the City, Transtech Engineering
and Watson & Associates, had offered to match any contributions made by City
employees up to $10,000 each for the victims of Hurricane Katrina. Also, the
local Arrowhead United Way office will send any donations for the hurricane
victims directly to their branch offices in that area.
Beverly Smith, Miracles in Recovery, 1064 North "D" Street, San Bernardino,
CA, stated that this organization provides services to women who are homeless,
pregnant, and drug addicted. They have two facilities —one located at 2316
Valencia Avenue and the other at 1064 North "D" Street. Both of these homes
have been approved by the State of California and passed the certification for
drug Medi-Cal; however, they need a letter signed off by the City's Planning
Department saying that they do not need a use permit for a facility of six or less
individuals. They would then be able to complete their application and receive
their license. She stated that they have been unsuccessful in speaking with
anyone in the Planning Department in order to get this matter resolved and they
need to get this done before October 1.
Mayor/Chairman Valles advised that staff would look into the matter.
Council Member/Commissioner McCammack ascertained that the facility on
Valencia was currently open and operating.
Ms. Smith stated that women are living there, but what they are trying to do is
to have it operated as a drug Medi-Cal perinatal facility for six women or less.
Roger Henderson, Valencia Avenue, San Bernardino, CA, expressed his
support of James Penman for Mayor.
