Box 5822 San Bernardino, CA 92408 909.384.7464 BACKGROUND The applicant requests that the Mayor and Common Council approve Development Code Amendment No. 05-03 to modify Sections 19.06.020, Table 06.01 (K) (5) and (14), Section 19.06.030, Table 6.03 and Section 19.06.030 (2) (C) of the Development Code to establish standards for mixed-use development and permit vertical and lor horizontal mixed-use development containing commercial uses mixed with residential uses subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit in the CR-2, CG-2, CG-3, and CG-4 land use districts. Also requested are General Plan Amendment No. 05-12 to change the land use designation of approximately 1.3 acres from CO-I, Commercial Office to CG-2, Commercial General; Tentative Tract Map No. 17704 to create a I-lot condominium subdivision; and Conditional Use Permit No. 05-17 to construct 12 three-story mixed-use residential and commercial live/work detached dwelling units in the CG-2, Commercial General land use district. The project site is located on the north side of 3 rd Street, approximately 240 feet east of Sierra Way in the CO-I, Commercial Office land use district (Exhibit A) The proposed Development Code Amendment is applicable Citywide. It will establish standards for mixed-use development and allow mixed use commercial with residential development (including artist colony and combination residence/office) subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit in the CR-2, CG-2, CG-3, and CG-4 land use districts. The amendment is designed to enhance the Development Code by establishing mixed-use standards to provide incentives to construct owner-occupied dwellings in mixed-use development. The proposal is for 12 three- story mixed-use residential and commercial live/work detached units in the CG-2, Commercial General land use district (Exhibit B). Please refer to the Planning Commission Staff Report (Exhibit 2) for additional discussion. Attachment C to the Planning Commission Staff Report outlines the proposed Development Code Amendment. DCA05-06/GP A05-12/ITM 17704/CUP05-17 Hearing Date: 2.21.06 Page 2 The Director of Development Services, Mr. James Funk, presented this proposal at the Planning Commission Meeting of January 10, 2006. Mr. Funk stated that adoption of the proposed amendment to the text of the Development Code would not entitle specific land uses on any site within the City. The proposed text amendment will establish a set of regulations and concepts for the character and direction of future development. The text amendment includes development standards for private development and public improvements, prohibited and conditionally permitted uses, and design criteria to ensure that proposed mixed-use developments comply with the desired character envisioned for mixed-use development in the City. In addition, the text amendment will establish standards that allow greater flexibility than presently permitted in the City's Development Code. The text amendment will also provide new development and redevelopment opportunities for commercial/retail, office, and residential uses to facilitate activities in the downtown and other key locations in the City. After an elaborate presentation by Mr. Funk, the Planning Commission opened the public hearing and received public testimony on this matter. After some discussion, the Planning Commission made a motion to recommend approval of Development Code Amendment No. 05-06, General Plan Amendment No. 05-12, Tentative Tract Map No. 17704 (Subdivision No. 05-31) and Conditional Use Permit No. 05-17. Commissioners, Heasley, Munoz, Powell and Sauerbrun voted in support of the proposal. Commissioners Coute, Enciso and Morris were absent. The Planning Commission was concerned that the hours of operation proposed in the DCA would be limited from Monday through Saturday and reviewed this issue with Mr. Funk. The Planning Commission recommended that the hours of operation be expanded to include Sunday from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. The Planning Commission wanted to ensure that there would be adequate parking for employees and visitors to the 3rd Street project site. Mr. Funk stated that the proposal will provide on-site parking to accommodate 24 stalls and that each residence will have a 2-car garage. In addition, 3rd Street provides off-street parking on both sides of the street. The proposal provides adequate off-street parking for employees and visitors. The Planning Commission suggested that the CC&R's include provisions to prevent absentee landlords. Senior Deputy City Attorney Henry Empeno stated that there is no legal mechanism to enforce such a provision. Mr. Funk explained that the standards in the proposed Development Code Amendment require the person conducting the business in the live/work unit to be the resident living in the unit. Subject to approval of the proposed Development Code Amendment, the proposed project complies with Development Code requirements and will enhance the character of the existing neighborhood. The proposed project has been designed to incorporate distinctive architecture, convenient access and a fountain feature that will emphasize the project site. This project will promote and implement the objectives and policies of the General Plan. DCA05-06/GPA05-12mM 17704/CUP05-17 Hearing Date: 2.21.06 Page 3 FINANCIAL IMPACT None.

The Development Code Amendment will be applicable on a Citywide basis. Also requested are General Plan Amendment No. 05-12 under the authority of Development Code Section 19.50 to change the land use designation of approximately 1.3 acres of from CO-I, Commercial Office to CG-2, Commercial General, Tentative Tract Map No. 17704 (Subdivision No. 05-31) under the authority of Development Code Section 19.66.070 to create a I-lot condominium subdivision on a 1.3-acre parcel and Conditional Use Permit No. 05-17 under the authority of Development Code Section 19.06.020, Table 06.01 (K)(14) to construct 12 three-story mixed-use residential and commercial live/work detached dwelling units in the CG-2, Commercial General land use district (Attachments A & B). The proposed code amendment will modify Sections 19.06.020, Table 06.01 (K) (5) and (14), Section 19.06.030, Table 6.03 and Section 19.06.030 (2) (C) of the Development Code to establish standards for mixed-use development and allow mixed use commercial with residential development (including artist colony and combination residence/office) subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit in the CR~l, CG-2, CG-3, and CG-4 land use districts. This amendment is designed to enhance the Development Code establishing mixed-use standards to provide incentives to construct owner-occupied dwellings in mixed-use development (Attachment C). The proposed amendment to change from the CO-l district to the CG-2 district will enable the property owner to develop a viable use on this site and expand the community-serving retail and service commercial uses in the downtown area. The Tentative Tract Map will create a I-lot condominium subdivision on a 1.3-acre parcel. The 12 three-story live/work detached units would have individual ownership but the common areas including landscaping, concrete and asphalt paved areas, easements for the driveways, fences and walls, streets and utilities would be owned, controlled and maintained through a homeowners association and would be governed by Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions (CC&R's). The CC&R's would place limitations and requirements on all the detached single- family condominium units and would be responsible for controlling hours of business, visitor and guest parking, and enforcing standards established for the exterior of the structures. They are intended to protect the individual condominium owners regarding construction, maintenance of buildings, common areas and utilities. DCA No. 05-06 GPA No. 05-12 T.T.M No. 17704 (Sub. 05-31) CUP No. 05-13 January 10. 2006 Page 3 The project site has been designed for twelve detached mixed-use live/work units located closest to the north property line with parking located in front of the buildings and landscaping around the project perimeter. Section 19.02.050 of the Development Code defines "Detached" as "Any building or structure that does not have a wall or roof in common with any other building or structure"). None of the live/work dwellings share walls or roofs. Thus, while appearing as duplex units, they are classified as detached live/work buildings. There are two proposed driveway entrances to the project site, with one driveway located closest to the easterly property line and the other located closest to the westerly property line. The driveway serving the residential component wraps around the structures to the north, and is designed to be a one-way ingress/egress driveway. The architectural design elevations are mission style with a series of arches supported by columns in the main level connecting the 12 units. The structures feature Spanish clay tile with gabled and hipped roofs. The residential portion on the 2nd floor features a wainscot with stone veneer. Other design components include 1) a prominent monument sign fronting 3rd Street, 2) a 20-foot in depth landscaped parkway in a landscape maintenance district and 3) a landscape maintenance district with a water feature and benches. The project would be constructed in one phase. The project will provide each unit with a minimum of 300 square feet of private useable open space which may include private patio. balcony, and/or roof deck. The driveway approaches accessing 3rd Street will be delineated with interlocking pavers, rough-textured concrete, or stamped concrete. A6-foot decorative block wall is proposed to be extended westerly approximately 80 feet from the existing block wall located abutting the northerly property line and constructed along the westerly property boundary. The proposal offers a 3-story building style with 4 different model plans. Each model plan offers 3 variations of finishes for a total of 12 variety choices for 12 live/work dwellings. The layouts are as follows: Model Plan 1 Plan 2 Plan 3 Plan 4 Livin2 Area 1,415 sq.f1. with a 2-car garage (441 sq.f1.) 1,415 sq.ft. with a 2-car garage (441 sq.ft.) 1,415 sq.f1. with a 2-car garage (441 sq.ft.) 1,415 sq. ft. with a 2-car garage (441 sq. f1.) Work Area 461 sq.ft. 461 sq. f1. 461 sq.ft. 461 sq.ft. Plan 1 - (3bd/3-l/2ba) - 3 homes (25 %) Plan 2 - (3bd/3-l/2ba) - 3 homes (25 %) Plan 3 - (3bd/3-l/2ba) - 3 homes (25 %) Plan 4 - (3bd/3-1/2ba) - 3 homes (25%) 12 homes (100%) DCA No. 05-06 GPA No. 05-12 T.T.M No. 17704 (Sub. 05-31) CUP No. 05-13 January 10, 2006 Page 4 The proposed floor plans are as follows: 1 Sl Floor: 461 sq. f1. of commercial area, a 2-car garage, a laundry area and a private yard. 2nd Floor: 918 sq.ft. of residential area (living, dinning, bed and bathrooms and a kitchen). 3'd Floor: 497 Sq'ft' ofresidential area (2 bed rooms & 2 bathrooms and a deck). Specifically, the 3'd floor offers an extra feature to convert the entire floor plan into a master bedroom. The homes are wood-frame/stucco construction with concrete tile roofs. Architectural treatments include variations in roof style, front entry projection and garage door designs. The homes include window treatments, metal roll up garage doors and fully landscaped front-yards for all the houses and all common open space areas. SETTING/SITE CHARACTERISTICS The subject property is located on the north side of 3'd Street approximately 300 feet east of Sierra Way. Surrounding uses to the north are multi-family apartments in the RH, Residential High district. To the east is a fire station and to the west and south adjacent to the site are commercial uses in the CO-I, Commercial Office land use district. Currently, the property has the land use designation of CO-I, which permits "Combination Residence/Office" units subject to a Development Permit. If developed as "Combination Residence/Office" rental units, the project would not require approval by the Planning Commission. The applicant could develop the property with residence/office apartments. Hg"'@"@r, the applicant desires to develop the property with owner-occupied type dwellings (townhomes having no common walls and no common roofs) in a more commercial version of live/work units. The applicant and the Development Services Department recommend changing the land use designation on the subject property from CO-I to CG-2, and amending the text of the City's Development Code to establish requirements for mixed-use development containing residential and commercial uses. This proposal would achieve the following: I) Require that mixed-use developments containing residential dwellings obtain a Conditional Use Permit subject to the approval of the Planning Commission. (Note: Currently, only a Development Permit is required for a mixed-use development in the CG-4/SP and CR-2 land use districts). 2) Require that developments containing Combination Residence/Office Dwelling Units obtain a Conditional Use Permit subject to the approval of the Planning Commission. (Note: Currently, only a Development Permit is required for Combination Residence/Office Dwelling Units in the CO-I and CO-2 land use districts). DCA No. 05-06 GPA No. 05-12 T. T.M No. 17704 (Sub. 05-31) CUP No. 05-13 January 10, 2006 Page 5 3) Require that developments contammg Artist Colony Dwelling Units obtain a Conditional Use Pennit subject to the approval of the Planning Commission. (Note: Currently, only a Development Permit is required for construction of Combination Residence/Office Dwelling Units in the COol and CO-2 land use districts). 4) Establish in the Development Code incentives to construct owner occupied-type dwellings (rather than multi-family/apartments) in mixed-use development. 5) Establish basic standards and requirements for vertical and/or horizontal mixed-use developments containing commercial uses mixed with residential uses. 6) Establish basic standards and requirements for Live/Work Dwelling Units (including Professional Live/Work, Combination Residence/Office, and Artist Colony Dwelling Units), and non-live work dwellings in mixed-use developments. 7) Allow Home Occupations, subject to approval of a Home Occupation Permit, to be conducted in mixed use developments. (Note: Currently, Home Occupations are not specifically addressed in any of the land use designations pennitting mixed use development or proposed to permit mixed use development. 8) Replace Section 19.06 (2) C, identified as "Artist Colony" in the Development Code with "Mixed Use Commercial and Residential Development (Including Artist Colony and Combination Residencies/Office)." 9) Mixed Use: Prohibit in mixed-use development containing residential units the following land use activities: Automotive Related Uses, Boarding/Lodging Facilities, Home Improvements with Outdoor Display, Indoor Retail Concession Malls, Mini- Malls, Nurseries/Garden Supplies, Publishing/Printing Plants, Recycling Facilities, Recycling Facilities (Reverse Vending Only), Veterinary Services/Animal Boarding, Funeral Parlors/Mortuaries, Single-Price overstock/Discount Stores, Adult-Oriented Businesses (See Section 19.06.030(2)(A) for specific definition of tenns), Fortune Tellers, Tattoo Parlors and/or Body Piercing Studios, Second Hand Stores/Thrift Stores, Check-Cashing Facilities, and Pawn Shops. 10) Live/Work: In addition to the land use activities prohibited in mixed use developments having residential units, the following land use activities shall not be. permitted in live/work units: Restaurants - with Drive-Thrus, Night Clubs/Bars/Lounges, Entertainment/Recreation, Medical/Care Facilities/Social Services, Tanning Salons, Dry Cleaners, Laundromais (self-serve), Convenience Stores, Drug Stores, Supermarkets, Liquor Stores, Mobile Home Sales, and Religious Facilities. Live/work and mixed-use are not the same thing. In contrast to home-occupation, which is incidental commercial use to ones dwelling unit, live-work is incidental residential use of a commercial space where one or more of the occupants of the residential portion of the lease space or condominium is engaged in the commercial activity. Zoning standards for live-work use need to be written to preserve the predominately commercial use. Commercial uses allowed in a live/work space should be those that are permitted in the district where the live/work development is located. Live/work is frequently confused with mixed use. The proposed amendment to the text of the City's Development Code distinguishes between mixed- use development with apartments, mixed-use development with owner occupied type dwellings, live/work dwellings, and professional live/work dwellings.

The D/ERC determined that a minor correction was needed pertaining to the site layout. At this time, the D/ERC also determined that the Initial Study adequately addressed the environmental issues and recommended that a Mitigated Negative Declaration be circulated for a 20-day public review beginning on November 10, 2005 and ending on November 29, 2005, and moved the project to Planning Commission. Pursuant to the Public Resources Code and CEQA guidelines, a Notice of Intent to adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration was filed with the San Bernardino County Clerk of the Board, A copy of the Initial Study was made available to the public at the County Clerk of San Bernardino, the City Planning Division, and City Library. No comments were received during the public review period. ADDITIONAL OBSERVATIONS/BACKGROUND The Development Services Director has generated interest from community developers interested in live/work townhouses and expanded home businesses as a way to increase neighborhood vibrancy, add life to mixed-use areas, and allow homegrown small businesses. Before the invention of the automobile, living above the store was the housing option of choice for many middle-class American families. In metropolitan communities, homes once again are rising over stores and offices. This latest trend.is, in part, a reaction to the city's reliance on cars and the seemingly endless boundaries of metropolitan areas. Here, in San Bernardino, the concept is being reinterpreted to fit today's technology and lifestyle demands. Ironically, the market forces encouraging vertical mixed-use development are the same ones that created this form of development in preautomobile times: scarcity of land, rising housing costs, and strained transportation systems. Growth in population and jobs in metropolitan areas has outpaced the capacity of the transportation system. Soaring land and housing prices are forcing workers to ever more distant suburbs. These conditions are causing governmental agencies at all levels to reconsider policies affecting the urban development pattern, and are causing many residents to reconsider their own lifestyle choices. The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) has been pursuing a jobs/housing balance objective since the mid-1980's. This has been one of the key policies encouraging the development of housing above office and retail uses in the Los Angeles Metropolitan Area. Mixed-use is one development option that local agencies can pursue to help reduce vehicle trips, encourage pedestrian movement, and promote transit ridership. The proposed live/work development on 3rd Street (tentatively know as 3rd Street Plaza) is making a little history in San Bernardino. DCA No. 05-06 GPA No. 05-12 T.T.M No. 17704 (Sub. 05-31) CUP No. 05-13 January 10, 2006 Page 7 Two presidents of two local engineering companies have teamed up to champion a new mixed- use development concept for a smalllive-at-home/work-at-home neighborhood in the downtown. They are Allan "Ali" Cayir, president of Transtech Engineers, Inc., and David Mlynarski, President of MAPCO. These gentleman are experimenters, illllovators and obviously the type of entrepreneurs every city desires to have in the community. This is a milestone event for the introduction of this type of live/work dwelling unit in the City. This is a revolutionary enclave of just 12 live/work townhomes established in a commercial strip mall design. Small business owners with an entrepreneurial spirit will not overlook this opportunity. This is an innovative solution to balancing the demands of work and family as well as eliminating long commutes to the office or shop. These structures are elegant, functional new homes where a homeowner can raise a family as well as operate a business from a retail shop or dedicated home office with advanced technology. It is truly a win-win situation. It is believed that savvy professionals and creative consultants who are interested in downtown San Bernardino will select these homes. This product has excellent possibilities as being the wave of the future for key urban districts in the City such as the downtown, CSUSB, Santa Fe Depot Historic District, and older business corridors of the City. Home buyers who find that suburban tranquility is just not for them but prefer the cutting edge pace of a downtown or university address will want these mixed-use homes. FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS - DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENT 1. Is the proposed amendment consistent with the General Plan? Yes, the proposal is consistent with the General Plan Downtown Strategic Area 10. General Plan Downtown Strategic Area 10 Strategy 1 states: "promote downtown revitalization by seeking and facilitating mixed-use projects (e.g. combinations of residential, commercial, and office uses)." The proposed amendment would allow Chapter 19.06 to be modified to facilitate the development of a 3-story, 12 detached mixed-use project. Specifically, this amendment will modify Development Code Sections 19.06.020, Table 06.01 (K) (5) and (14), Section 19.030, Table 6.03 and Section 19.030(2)(C) to establish development standards for mixed-use and permit vertical ant or horizontal mixed-use development containing commercial uses mixed with residential uses subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit in the CR-2, CG-2, CG-3 and CG-4 land use districts. DCA No. 05-06 GPA No. 05-12 T TM No. 17704 (Sub. 05-31) CUP No. 05-13 January 10. 2006 Page 8 2. Would the proposed amendment be detrimental to the public interest, health. safety. convenience. or welfare of the City? No, the proposed amendment would modify regulations to establish standards for mixed-use projects in the CR-2, CG-2, CG-3 and CG-4 land use districts. This proposal will be in the public interest in that it will create an incentive to provide a broader range of housing, thereby increasing home ownership opportunities within the City. In addition, an lnitial Study was prepared to evaluate the potential for adverse environmental impacts related to the proposed Development Code Amendment, and none were identified. FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS - GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT 1. Is the proposed amendment internally consistent with the General Plan? Yes, the proposal is consistent with the General Plan Downtown Strategic Area 10. General Plan Downtown Strategic Area 10 Strategy 3 states: "allow the ground floor of new non-residential and residential structures to incorporate "pedestrian-active retail uses (restaurants, florists, gift shops, bookstores, clothing shoe repair, etc.)" The change from the CO-l district to the CG-2 district will enable the property owner to develop a viable commercial use of the two parcels and provide a development opportunity with innovative commercial.uses within the downtown area. The proposed amendment will allow the site to be with commercial uses consistent with the existing adjacent commercial uses to the south. 2. Is the proposed amendment detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City? No, the proposal would not pose any threat to the public health, safety and welfare of the City in that any commercial development proposal would be required to comply with all applicable provisions of the Development Code, Chapter 19.06, Commercial District. The proposed amendment would enhance the project site making it feasible to implement Strategy 3 of the General Plan stated above. The proposed amendment will create an environment of value for mixed-use development and will not adversely affect the quality of life, health and safety of the City's residents and businesses in this area.

Yes, the proposed amendment is consistent with General Plan strategies as described above for Development Code and General Plan Amendments and would maintain the appropriate balance of land uses within the City. The proposed amendment is for one parcel of 1.3 acres and does not adversely impact the balance of land uses within the City. The proposed amendment will promote mixed-use development, place commercial uses fronting 3rd Street, and encourage a lively downtown urban environment. 4. Is the subject parcel physically suitable (including, but not limited to, access, provision of utilities, compatibility with adjoining land uses, and absence of physical constraints) for the requested land use designation and anticipated land use development? All agencies responsible for reviewing access, and providing water, sanitation and other public services have all had the opportunity to review the proposal, and none have indicated an inability to serve the project based on the change in land use designation. All required utilities and public services can adequately serve the site. The proposed amendment area is bounded by developed, dedicated streets and existing infrastructure suitable for mixed-use dev~lopment. Construction and grading activities will conform to all applicable provisions of the Development Code requirements. FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS - TENT A TIVE TRACT MAP 1. Is the proposed map consistent with the General Plan? Yes, the proposed map is consistent with the General Plan and Development Code as shown in Table A below. The CG-2 (Commercial General land use) distrIct allows residential and commercial mixed-use development at a maximum density of 12 units per gross acre. The proposal'is for development of a detached residential and commercial mixed-use project at 9.2 units per gross acre. See Table "A" below: DCA No. 05-06 GPA No. 05-/2 T.

Is the design of the proposed subdivision consistent with the General Plan? Yes, the proposal is consistent with the General Plan Downtown Strategic Area 10. General Plan Downtown Strategic Area 10 Strategy 13 states: "encourage mixed use development and pedestrian friendly uses/development adjacent to transit stops." The proposed tract complies with Development Code requirements and will enhance the existing commercial and offices uses surrounding the site. The development of the site with detached condominium units (homeowner-type dwellings) will be compatible with the existing multi-family uses to the north. The proposed tract has been designed to incorporate a "strolling" sidewalk and other amenities and is adjacent to a transit stop. 3. Is the site physically suitable for the type of proposed development? Yes, the site is physically suitable for the proposed development in that the division of land is consistent with the Subdivision Map Act. The tentative tract map conforms to the subdivision design standar9s specified by the Development Code in that it can accommodate twelve 3-story detached mixed-use live/work structures and open space as addressed in the Findings of Fact in the Conditional Use Permit. All of the proposed units will have access to a dedicated roadway and infrastructure that will provide water, sewer, power, gas, telephone, and cable to the site. 4. Is the site physically suitable for the proposed density of development? Yes, the site is physically suitable for the proposed density of development in that the division of land is consistent with the Subdivision Map Act and the proposed subdivision is consistent with the mixed-use development standards. The proposed density at 9.2 units per gross acre is lower than that of Code requirements at 12 units per gross acre. Although the project site is located in the CG-2 district that allows multi-family units, the proposal has been designed with a detached concept layout.

Is the design of the subdivision likely to cause substantial environmental damage, or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat? No, an Initial Study was prepared to determine the presence and extent of any environmental issues that could result from the Development Code Amendment, General Plan Amendment, Tentative Tract Map, and Conditional Use Permit. Based on the Initial Study as discussed in the Background, no issues were identified that would result in a significant impact on the environment. Two technical studies to include drainage and traffic were prepared for the proposal. These reports concluded that development of this site would not create significant impacts that could not be mitigated. In addition, the Mitigation Monitoring /Reporting Plan for the Initial Study includes action measures to properly mitigate and monitor any potential significant negative impacts relating to development and construction of this site (Attachment G). 6. Is the design of the subdivision likely to cause serious public health problems? No, the design of the proposed subdivision meets all of the applicable requirements for the CG-2 land use district. Furthermore, the circulation layout has been reviewed by the City Engineer and designed to provide adequate access and accommodate the type of traffic forecast to be generated by the proposed subdivision and is unlikely to result in any serious public health problems. 7. Will the design of the subdivision or the type of improvements conflict with any easements, acquired by the public at large. for access through or use oj. property within the proposed subdivision? No, the easements identified in the Preliminary Title Report relate to electrical lines and other utilities. The design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements will not conflict with these easements, because any existing easements would be abandoned or relocated as determined by the Public Works/Engineering Division through processing of the Final Map. . FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT I. Is the proposed use conditionally permitted within. and not impair the integrity and character of the subject land use district. and does it comply with all of the applicable provisions of this Development Code? Yes, pursuant to Development Code Section 19.06.030 (K)(14) as proposed, a live/work project is an allowed use in the CG-2, Commercial General land use district, subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit. The proposed project complies with all applicable provisions of the Development Code and General Plan as shown in Table "A" below.

Description of Project (Describe the whole action involved, including, but not limited to, later phases of the project and any secondary, support, or off-site feature necessary for its implementation. Attach additional sheets, if necessary): A request for a General Plan Amendment to change the land use designation from CO-1 to CG-2 for a 1.3 acres site to allow construction of 12 mixed-use live/work homes, subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit and a Tentative Tract Map; and a request to amend the text of the Development Code to permit and establish requirements for mixed-use development containing residential and commercial uses in the CR-2, CG-2, CG-3, CG-4, ,CO-l and CO-2 land use districts of the City of San Bernardino. Currently, the property has the land use designation of CO-I, which permits "Combination Residence/Office" units subject to a Development Permit. The applicant could develop the property with residence/office apartments. However, the applicant desires to develop the property with owner-occupied type dwellings (townhomes having no common walls and no common roofs) in a more commercial live/work "mixed-use" design. The applicant and the Development Services Department recommend changing the land use designation on the subject property from COol to CG-2, and amending the text of the City's Development Code to estaplish requirements for mixed-use development containing residential and commercial uses. IS 2 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY In summary, the text amendment would achieve the following: I) Require that mixed-use developments containing residential dwellings obtain a Conditional Use Permit subject to the approval of the Planning Commission.

(Note: Currently, only a Development Permit is required for Combination Residence/Office Dwelling Units in the CO-I and CO-2 land use districts). 3) Require that developments containing Artist Colony Dwelling Units obtain a Conditional Use Permit subject to the approval of the Planning Commission. (Note: Currently, only a Development Permit is required for construction of Combination Residence/Office Dwelling Units in the CO-l and CO-2 land use districts). 4) Establish in the Development Code incentives to construct owner occupied-type dwellings (rather than multi-family/apartments) in mixed-use development. 5) Establish basic standards and requirements for vertical and/or horizontal mixed-use developments containing commercial uses mixed with residential uses. 6) Establish basic standards and requirements for Live/Work Dwelling Units (including Professional Live/Work, Combination Residence/Office, and Artist Colony Dwelling Units), and non-live work dwellings in mixed-use developments. 7) Allow Home Occupations, subject to approval of a Home Occupation Permit, to be conducted in single family detached dwellings, condominiums and townhomes in mixed use developments but not allow Home Occupations to be conducted-in multi-family/apartment units (Note: Currently, Home Occupations are not specifically addressed in any of the land use designations permitting mixed use development or proposed to permit mixed use development. 8) Replace Section 19.06 C, identified as "Artist Colony" in the Development Code with "Mixed Use Commercial and Residential Development (Including Artist Colony and Combination Residencies/Office). " 9) The following land use activities are prohibited in mixed-use development containing residential units: Automotive Related Uses, BoardingILodging Facilities, Restaurants with Drive- Thurs, Home Improvements with Outdoor Display, Indoor Retail Concession Malls, Mini- Malls, Nurseries/Garden Supplies, PublishinglPrinting Plants, Recycling Facilities, Recycling Facilities (Reverse Vending Only), Veterinary Services/Animal Boarding, Funeral Parlors/Mortuaries, Single-Price overstock/Discount Stores, Adult-Oriented Businesses (See Section 19.06.030(2)(A) for specific definition of terms), Emergency Shelters, Fortune Tellers, Tattoo Parlors and/or Body Piercing Studios, Second Hand Stores/Thrift Stores. Check-Cashing Facilities. and Pawn Shops. 10) In addition to the activities prohibited in mixed use projects containing dwelling units, the following commercial land use activities in live/work units are prohibited: Night Clubs/Bars/Lounges, Entertainment/Recreation, Medical/Care Facilities/Social Services, Tanning Salons, Dry Clea,ners. Laundromats (self-serve), Convenience Stores, Drug Stores, Supermarkets, Liquor Stores. Mobile Home Sales, and Religious Facilities. IS 3 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY The text amendment will not allow land use activities more intense than the land use activities allowed under the City's existing Development Code. The existing Development Code permits a wider range of commercial activities in possible future developments in the subject land use districts than would be permitted in mixed-use developments. If the properties which would be covered by the amendment to the text of Development Code were developed with commercial development permitted by the Development Code, there is a potential for a greater range of commercial activity and a potential for greater volumes ofttaffic. If the properties which would be covered by the amendment were developed as mixed-use residential and commercial developments, there are fewer permitted commercial uses. As part of the update of the General Plan, the Planning Center made a comparative analysis of commercial development versus mixed-use commercial and residential development, Utilizing estimated residential densities of as great as 47 dwellings per acre (which is highly unlikely to be this great in mixed-use projects in San Bernardino) in comparison to sites entirely developed with a variety of commercial uses such as the Carousel Mall (assuming near full tenant occupancy), the anticipated vehicle trips may be anticipated to be 34% less from mixed-use development. The Planning Center's work included trip generation information indicating that an acre of residential development may be anticipated to typically generate about 49.4 daily trips whereas an acre of retail and/or office development would be anticipated to generate 151 daily trips. Thus, vehicle trips in mixed-use development containing residential dwellings would be expected to experience trip reductions in proportion to reduction of commercial square footage and in proportion to an increase in residential floor area in such mixed-use developments. 8. Surrounding Land Uses and Setting: The subject property is located on the north side of Third Street approximately 300 feet east of Sierra Way. Surrounding uses to the north are multi-family apartments in the RH, Residential High district. To the east, west and south adjacent to the site are commercial uses in the CO-I, Commercial Office land use district. 9. Other agencies whose approval is required (e.g., permits, finance approval, or participation agreement): The following permits will be required for construction and/or operation of the proposed project: Construction related permits from the City of San Bernardino (grading, building, fire, etc.); a Storm Water Construction NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) permit, a Notice of Intent must be filed with the State Water Resources Control Board: and a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) must be prepared and implemented. A copy of the SWPPP must be retained on site for inspection by the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board and the City.

The visual impact of the proposed project will not create an offensive change to setting of the area. This is one of the last undeveloped parcels ofland in the City's downtown. Both residential and commercial land use activities are existing in the immediately surrounding area. The proposed mixed-use development of 12 live/work homes is consistent with existing land use activities and will be superior in quality and attractiveness in comparison to surrounding existing development. The site is located within an area with surrounding land use designation of abutting residential development to the north, abutting a fire station to the east, abutting a commercial building to the west, and is facing a public park, commercial development and residential development. Incremental increases of light and glare will be created by the proposed project through the installation of streetlights on the internal parking lots. This is one of the last undeveloped parcels in the area, and the proposed development is compatible with the surrounding area. Standard conditions of approval for the project will ensure compliance with the City's Development Code standards for light and glare.

Short terms impacts are those associated with construction of a project. Long-term impacts are those associated with operation of the project. The San Bernardino Valley portion of the South Coast Air Basin (SCAB) is designated non-attainment for nitrogen dioxide. sulfates, particulate matter, and ozone. The criteria pollutants identified in the SCAB that would be associated with the proposed project include: IS 8 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY - Ozone (03) - Carbon monoxide (CO) - Nitrogen dioxide (N02) - Particulate matter (PM,) - Sulfur dioxide (SO,) _ Reactive Organic Compounds (ROC) SCAQMD adopted the Final 1994 Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) revision in September 1994 and a draft 1997 update in August 1996 to establish a comprehensive control program to achieve compliance with federal and state air quality standards for healthful air quality in the SCAB. The Final AQMP was adopted by the AQMD Board in November 1996 and has since been approved by the California Air Resources Board (CARB). The AQMP policies serve as the framework for all control (permitting) efforts in the SCAB as enforced by the SCAQMD for stationary sources. CARB regulates mobile sources. The applicant is proposing construction of 12 mixed-live/work homes on a vacant property. The site appears to have been previously developed with dwellings which were demolished several years ago. , prior to the recent purchase of the site by the applicant. The project would not exceed emission standards for energy consumption or operations based on its physical characteristic or operation. Due to the minor amounts of equipment, material, and low volumes of traffic, significance thresholds are not exceeded. Fugitive dust generated by construction activities would add to the ambient PM 1 0 levels but should not exceed SCAQMD threshold of 150 Ibs/day with mitigation. The proposed project has the potential generate dust during grading activities, and in periods of high winds until construction is completed. In order to mitigate this impact, the City requires the preparation and approval ofPMI0 management plans, which shall be reviewed and approved by the Public Works Division. In addition, the project proponent shall implement the following mitigation measures to mitigate the potential impacts on air quality during construction activities: Implementation of the following mitigation measures will ensure impacts from fugitive dust generation during construction activities will be less than significant and will aid the City in meeting General Plan Policies 10.10.2 and 10.10.4. Policy 10.10.2 Require dust abatement measures during grading and construction operations. Policy 10.10.4 Cooperate with the South Coast Air Quality Management District and incorporate pertinent local implementation provisions of the Air Quality Management Plan. IS 9 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY AQ-I The project shall comply with the requirements of the SCAQMD Rule 403, fugitive dust, which requires the implementation of Reasonable Available Control Measures (RACM) for all fugitive dust sources, and the Air Quality Management Plan (AMCP), which identifies Best Available Control Measures (BACM) and Best Available Control Technologies (BACT) for area sources and point sources, respectively. Some land uses and/or individuals are considered more sensitive to air pollution than others due to the types of population groups and activities involved. Sensitive population groups include children, the elderly, residential areas, and recreational land uses. The project site is located in an area of mixed land uses along Third Street, which is the primary one of several routes visitors to the City of San Bernardino Civic Center and County Courts. Land uses within the general vicinity include single and multi-family residential, a fire station, public park, and retail buildings. The short-term nature of the construction, in light of the degree of development activity that has previously occurred in the area, will not negatively impact the local citizens because implementation of SCAQMD Rules 402 and 403 will reduce the amount of fugitive dust generated. The following AQ mitigation measures will further reduce the potential impacts to ensure a less than significant level of impact: AQ-2 The project proponent shal1 ensure that construction equipment shal1 be properly maintained and serviced to minimize exhaust emissions. I) The project proponent shall ensure that existing power sources are utilized where feasible via temporary power poles to avoid on-site power generation. 2) The project proponent shal1 ensure that construction personnel be informed of ride sharing and transit opportunities. 3) The project proponent shal1 ensure that any portion of the site to be graded shall be pre- watered to a depth of three feet prior to the onset of grading activities. 4) The project proponent shal1 ensure that watering of the site or other soil stabilization method shal1 be employed on an on-going basis after the initiation of any grading activity on the site. Portions of the site that are actively being graded shal1 be watered regularly to ensure that a crust is formed on the ground surface, and shall be watered at the end of each workday. 5) The project proponent shal1 ensure that al1 disturbed areas are treated to prevent erosion until the site is constructed upon. 6) The project proponent shal1 ensure that landscaped areas are instal1ed as soon as possible to reduce the potential for wind erosion. 7) The project proponent shal1 ensure that SCAQMD Rule 403 is adhered to, insuring the clean up of construction-related dirt on approach routes to the site. 8) The project proponent shall ensure that all grading activities are suspended during first and second stage ozone episodes or when winds exceed 25 miles per hour. 9) All buildings on the project site shall conform to energy use guidelines in Title 24 of the California Administrative Code. IS 10 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY AQ-3 To reduce emissions all equipment used in grading and construction must be tuned and maintained to the manufacturers specification to maximize burning of vehicle fuel. e) The nature of development of this parcel will not create new or unusual uses to the surrounding area. As such, no significant odors are anticipated and no further evaluation or mitigation is required.

The site is relatively flat, with grades ranging from 1% - 3%. The project will require 3.100 cubic yards of cut and 3,300 cubic yards offill. The Public Works division has found the proposed grading to be less than significant. IS 15 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY b) Most of Southern California is located in Seismic Zone 4, exposing people and structures to potentially adverse effects in the event of an earthquake or other seismic activity. For this reason California has revised the building standards from the Uniform Building Code and created the California Building Code. All construction projects in the state of California are regulated by the California Building Code and are reviewed for seismic safety. The implementation of the standards in the California Building Code will require the maintenance facility construction to meet safety standards that will reduce the potential impact from this project to a level ofIess than significance. c) The project site is not located within the Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone, as defined in Section 12.0-Geologic & Seismic, Figure 47, of the City General Plan. No known faults traverse the site. Therefore no impact is anticipated with regard to the Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone. d) The project scope of work includes the grading of 1.3 acres in order to prepare the site for construction. Standards from the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) as well as the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) require soil erosion control from both wind and water. Mitigation measures included within the Air Quality section above, the Hydrology and Water Quality section below, as well as within this section will reduce the potential impact from soil erosion to a level ofIess than significance. e- g) The project site is not located in an area that is known to be susceptible to landslides, mudslides, subsidence, or other similar hazards as identified by the General Plan. No further evaluation or mitigation is required. h) The proposed project will create a minimal potential for soil erosion during grading and construction activities. The following mitigation measures will ensure that such impacts remain less than significant: GS-l The project proponent shall, prior to the issuance of grading permit, receive approval of an erosion control plan and PM 10 plan from the Public Works Division of the Development Services Department. GS-2 The project proponent shall, ,prior to the issuance of a grading permit, prepare and submit for review and approval by the Development Services Department a detailed grading plan for the project site. The plan shall be prepared in conformance to the applicable standards and requirements of the City of San Bernardino Grading Ordinance and the Uniform Building Code. GS-3 An erosion control plan shall be prepared and implemented for the proposed project that identifies specific erosion control measures to control on-site and off-site erosion from the time of ground disturbing activities are initiated through grading completions. This erosion control plan shall include the following measures at a minimum. IS 16 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY a. Specify the timing of grading and construction to minimize soil exposure to rainy periods experienced in Southern California. b. An inspection and maintenance program shall be included to insure that any erosion, which does occur either on-site or off-site as a result of this project, will be corrected through a remediation or restoration program within a specified time frame. GS-4 All graded areas shall be protected from wind and water erosion through acceptable slope stabilization planting, walIs, or netting.

HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS Discussion: a _ t) Hazardous or toxic materials transported in association with construction of the project may include items such as oils and fuels. All materials required during construction wi\1 be kept in compliance with State and local regulations. No explosives will be present at the site. The end use of the site is mixed-use live/work homes. These uses do not involve the use or storage of hazardous or toxic substances. Numerous visits to the site for field surveys and observations have not revealed the presence of discarded drums, containers, or hazardous waste, and there is no indication of underground storage tanks. Some minor refuse has littered the site, however, given the domestic nature of the refuse it is unlikely that hazardous materials are present. The fo\1owing mitigation measures wi\1 ensure that impacts from hazardous material use, storage, and transportation will continue to be no impacts throughuut the course of development. H-l Any hazardous waste/materials encountered during the construction sha\1 be remediated in accordance with local, state. and federal regulations. Prior to initiating any construction activities, an environmental assessment shall be conducted to detennine if a release of hazardous wastes/substances exists at the site. H-2 If during construction of the project, soil and/or groundwater contamination is suspected, construction in the area shall cease and appropriate Health and Safety procedures shall be implemented. If it is detennined that contaminated soil and/or groundwater testing is needed, and/or remediation will be conducted, the contractor or site superintendent shall contact the appropriate government agency/agencies to provide appropriate regulatory oversight.

The project will be required to incorporate proper best management practices as well as an on-site system to treat runoff from parking and drive aisles, to meet NPDES standards. The mitigation of any potential impacts through NPDES regulations and best management practices will result in the project having a less than significant impact related on water quality standards or waste discharge requirements. D D C8J b) The proposed project will result in the eventual construction of structures, circulation and parking areas on lands currently vacant. The amount of area available for percolation and drainage will be affected by the proposed project. However, the installation of landscaping will allow for the percolation of water into the ground. Thus the proposed project will have a less than significant impact on ground water recharge. IS 21 D D D D D D D D D D o D D o o CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY c) The proposed project will alter the course of the existing drainage pattern on the site by creating surface parking areas, and structures. The on-site drainage will be directed into a catch basin and into an existing channel (where the water currently flows naturally). During construction erosion and siltation shall be regulated by the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan and the permit required for the project from the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board (SARWQCB). The project proponent will also have to file a Notice ofIntent with the SARWQCB under National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) guidelines. Due to the regulations currently existing and the requirements for obtaining approvals and permits from various regulatory agencies the potential for erosion or siltation will be less than significant. d) The proposed project will alter the course of the existing drainage pattern on the site by creating surface parking areas, and structures. The on-site drainage will be directed into a catch basin and into an existing channel (where the water currently flows naturally). Due to the regulations currently existing and the requirements for obtaining approval of erosion control and drainage improvements, the potential for flooding will be less than significant. e) The drainage for the site will contribute to run-off water, however the project proposes upgrades to the existing City of San Bernardino storm water drain system. The existing system, along with the proposed additions, has the capacity to handle the additional run-off. The SWPPP will include best management practices that will alleviate the potential impact from additional pollution in the run-off. Through implementation of the standard regulations as well as the mitigation measures related to erosion control (including the SWPPP, etc.) will reduce the potential impact for excessive and/or polluted run- off to a level of less than significance. f) As previously discussed in this section, the project has the potential to impact water quality due to erosion as well as potential pollution in run-off waters. These impacts will be reduced to a level ofless than significance by various mitigation measures in this section as well as in the Geology & Soils section. g _ h) The project site is not located within a IOO-year flood hazard zone based on Figure 62 of the General Plan and based and the proposal does not include housing. No impact is anticipated. i - j) The project site is not in proximity to any large bodies of water (i.e. ocean, lake, river, etc.) and is not located in a flood plain. No impact is anticipated. To ensure that the potential impacts associated with flooding and storm water quality and conveyance are less than significant, the following mitigation measures will be implemented. HW -1 Prior to the issuance of a grading permit, a site-specific drainage study which meets the standards of the City of San Bernardino Public Works division will be prepared by a Civil Engineer registered in the State of California. All recom,mendations from this analysis, including facilities necessary to mitigate drainage impacts, maximize percolation and groundwater recharge to the extent feasible shall be incorporated in all grading and site improvement plans. IS 22 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY HW-2 The applicant shall mitigate on-site storm water discharge sufficiently to maintain compliance with the City's NPDES Storm Water Discharge Permit Requirements. A "Notice ofIntent (NO!)" shall be filed with the State Water Quality Control Board for construction disturbing 5 acres or more of land. HW -3 Prior to the issue of any grading or building permit, the applicant shall submit to the City Engineer and have approved a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) on a form provided by the City. The WQMP shall identify BMP's that will be incorporated into the project to control storm water and non-storm water pollutants during and after construction and shall be revised as necessary during the life of the project. The applicant shall comply with the requirements for commercial developments as outlined in Chapter 8.80: Storm Water Drainage System, of the Municipal Code. HW-4 The plans for landscaping and fuel modification zones shall include provisions for controlling and minimizing the use of fertilizers/pesticides/herbicides.

The proposal is consistent with the General Plan and Development Code. The site is not located within a habitat conservation plan, the Hillside Management Overlay District, or Foothill Fire Zones A, B or C. No land use conflicts will result from the construction and operation of the project. No mitigation measures are required. IS 24 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY a _ e) The proposal is an infill development project on a small site that would not divide an established community. The project applicant is proposing the development of 12 live/work dwellings in a mixed- use development. The project site is currently zoned CO-I, Commercial Office district. A General Plan Amendment is requested to change the CO-l district and light commercial uses. The proposed project is compatible with development in the surrounding area which is both single-family and multiple-family residential, and commercial development and public park. Third Street is one of several street used to access the San Bernardino Civic Center and County administration and court systems, and one of several routes to food uses, retail outlets and financial institutions. No significant impacts to land use will result from the proposed project. The site is not located within a habitat conservation plan, the Hillside Management Overlay District, or Foothill Fire Zones A, B or C. No land use conflicts will result from the construction and operation of the project. No mitigation measures are required. f) The proposed project is located within the San Bernardino International Airport. As discussed under Section VII Hazards and Hazardous Materials, the proposed project is compatible with the Airport. No further evaluation is required and no mitigation measures are required. IS 25 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY X. MINERAL RESOURCES - Would the project: a) Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of value to the region and the residents of the state? b) Result in the loss of a locally-important mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan? Discussion: Less Than Potentially Significant Less Than No Significant With Significant Impact Impact Mitigation Impact Incorporation 0 0 0 [8J o o o [8J a - b) No loss of valuable mineral resources will occur with the development of the project. The project site is not located within a Mineral Resource Zone (MRZ). The project will demand aggregate resources in the construction of parking lots and buildings. Steel, concrete, and asphalt will be required as part of construction. These resources are commercially available in the southern California region without any constraint and no potential for adverse impacts to the natural resource base supporting these materials is forecast to occur over the foreseeable future. This demand is not significant due to the abundance of available local aggregate resources. '-.

NOISE - Would the project result in: a) Exposure of persons to or generation of noise 0 0 L8J 0 levels in excess of standards established in the City's General Plan or Development Code, or applicable standards of other agencies? b) Exposure of persons to or generation of 0 0 0 [g] excessive ground borne vibration or ground bourne noise levels? c) A substantial permanent increase in ambient 0 0 0 [g] noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the project? d) A substantial temporary or periodic increase in 0 0 L8J 0 ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the project? e) For a project located within an airport land-use 0 0 0 [g] plan or Airport Influence Area, would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? t) Other: 0 0 0 [g] Discussion: a - e) The proposed project will introduce 12 live/work homes to a vacant parcel within commercial, public park, residential and public governmental land use areas. The project is located near a residential neighborhood, abutting a fire station, and abutting a retail business. The most notable noise source is generated from emergency vehicles occasionally exiting the fire station. There are no major noise sources located near the site. However, short-term construction noise may affect adjacent residences during on-site construction from equipment and vibration from excavation and grading. In order to ensure that noise impacts associated with the construction are reduced to a less than significant level, the applicant shall comply with the following mitigation measures: IS 27 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY N-l Construction shall be restricted to between 7:00 am and 7:00 pm on weekdays and 8:00 am to 7:00 pm on Saturday.

POPULATION AND HOUSING - Would the project: a) Induce substantial population growth in an area. either directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)? o o o ~ b) Remove existing housing and displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? o o o ~ c) Other: o o o ~ Discussion: a - c) The project site is undeveloped. The proposed project will not result in the removal of any existing housing, and therefore, no impacts to housing will occur. The proposed project will not create a significant demand for additional housing. Typical development in the surrounding area includes apartment communities, single-family neighborhoods and service oriented commercial development that provides goods and services for the residents. As one of the last undeveloped parcels in the immediate area, the proposed project is not growth inducing, either directly of indirectly. No additional housing will be provided, and no major infrastructure expansion is necessary to serve the project.

PUBLIC SERVICES a) Would the project result in substantial adverse 0 0 0 ~ physical impacts associated with the provision of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts. in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services: Fire protection, including medical aid? 0 0 ~ 0 Police protection? 0 0 ~ 0 Schools? 0 0 0 ~ Parks or other recreational facilities? 0 0 0 ~ Other governmental services? 0 0 0 ~ b) Other: 0 0 0 ~ Discussion: a _ b) The proposed project is infill development on a small site served by all public services noted above. The proposed project will not place additional demands on fire protection and medical aid services. The project site is not in a high fire hazard zone. The project site is located abutting a fire station. Standard requirements for fire protection facilities, building design, and site access have been reviewed and approved by the City of San Bernardino Fire Department and incorporated into the project design. The project as proposed meets the City's current standards for fire protection. The resulting impacts will be less than significant. The project will not place additional demands on police services. Security measures will be incorporated in the project design during the design review by the department, and will be verified during plan review by the Building Department and City Police Department. IS 30 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY Employees will be drawn from existing residents within or near the City of Bemardino. The project will therefore not create a demand for new or additional school services, parks, or other recreational facilities as the workforce will be drawn from existing population of the area. The project site currently has no water demand. The implementation of the project will result in an increase in water for business use and irrigation purposes. This demand will not be a significant impact on the current groundwater supply or production capability of the City of San Bernardino Municipal Water Department. Water requirements will be met by the City of San Bernardino Municipal Water Department. Utility systems are in place to serve the surrounding areas and are master planned to provide service to the project site without creating disjointed patterns of service extensions. Existing water mains are present in the perimeter streets. Fire hydrants will be installed onsite as required by the City San Bernardino Fire Department. The proposed live/work dwellings will generate solid waste and green waste from landscape maintenance. The mixed-use development shall cooperate with the City Public Services Department in participating in all appropriate diversion programs. All green waste shall be diverted to an appropriate green waste processing or composting facility as directed by the Public Services Department. Additional vehicle trips will be generated by the proposed project. Access to the site will be provide by Third Street. This street is a secondary arterial through this segment of the City. Project related traffic impacts are discussed in detail in Section XVII - Traffic/Transporation. The property, however, is currently not generating property tax. When developed, the project site will generate property tax to offset the costs associated with providing services. Further, the proposed homes will generate school fees for the school district, to offset the costs associated with added children in the area. The impacts of the proposed project on public services are expected to be less than significant.

RECREATION a) Would the project increase the use of existing 0 0 0 ~ neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the facility would occur or be accelerated? b) Does the project include recreational facilities 0 0 0 ~ or require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities which might have an adverse physical effect on the environment? c) Other: 0 0 0 ~ Discussion: a - c) Development of the project site will result in a need for additional recreation facilities. The City, however, does not currently receive property tax for the proposed property. When developed, the property will generate property tax, which will contribute to the provision of recreational facilities Project development will have an effect on the demand for neighborhood or regional parks or other recreational facilities, and it will affect existing recreational opportunities. Existing park facilities are located across the street from the project. The proposed project will not impact these or any other park or recreation facility. The project site is not located within proximity to equestrian trials as identified on the City General Plan, Figure 39 _ Conceptual Equestrian Trail System. Development of the site would not preclude development of any portion of the proposed trial system. .. The impacts associated with development of the project site are not expected to be significant.

TRANSPORTATION/TRAFFIC - Would the project: a) Cause an increase in traffic which is substantial 0 0 ~ D in relation to the existing traffic load and capacity ofthe street system (i.e., result in a substantial increase in either the number of vehicle trips, the volume to capacity ratio on roads. or congestion at intersections)? b) Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a 0 0 ~ D level of service standard established by the county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways? c) Result in a change in air traffic patterns, 0 0 0 IZI including either an increase in traffic levels or a change in location that results in substantial safety risks? d) Substantially increase hazards due to a design 0 0 0 IZI feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? e) Result in inadequate emergency access? 0 0 0 IZI f) Result in inadequate parking capacity'? 0 0 - [8J 0 g) Conflict with adopted policies, plans, or 0 0 0 IZI programs supporting alternative transportation (e.g., bus turnouts, bicycle racks)? h) Other: 0 0 0 IZI IS 33 CITY OF SAN BER.1'IJARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY Discussion: a) In accordance with the 7lh Edition, Trip Generation, the proposed project would generate approximately 386 trips per day. Based on this small increment of trips, the proposal is not considered to contribute a significant increase in traffic volume on this roadway and a traffic study is not required. The project will have adequate access and driveways on Third Street in an acceptable operation. The project will be required to pay traffic systems fee of $7,557.88 based upon 386 trips at $ 19.58/trip, thus the project will have a less than significant impact. b) The project has been determined by the Traffic Engineers to be of a small enough scale that it will not exceed either individually or cumulatively a level of service established by the county congestion management plan. A less than significant impact is anticipated. c) The proposed project is a mixed-use development containing residential units. Air traffic patterns shall not be impacted by the proposed project. d) The project will be designed to meet all current City standards for street widths, corner radii, intersection control, etc. No impact is anticipated. e) The proposed project will provide the required means of access as per the Development Code. No impact is anticipated. f) The proposed project will create surface parking areas for employees and the general public. The parking provided shall meet Development Code'requirements.

Natural gas service will be provided to the project site by the Southern California Gas Company. The project developer will be required to pay both hook-up fees and on-going monthly usage fees for utility service. Electricity will be provided to the project site by Southern California Edison (SCE). Project operations will not impact SCE's ability to provide adequate levels of service nor will it create the need to increase capacity. The proposed project would require telephone service. The project site is within the service area of Verizon (formerly General Telephone). The service can be extended to the site without any significant impact to existing service in the area. Existing water mains are present on Third Street. Water supply is provided to the site by the Water Department. No impact to water distribution will result from the implementation of the proposed project. The proposed development is within the services boundaries of the Water Department. The site is within the City of San Bernardino sewage service area, which has adequate capacity to service the project site. There are sewer locations on Third Street that will serve the site. Any impacts to the sewer system will be less than significant. In all, the infrastructure (electricity, water, sewer, phone, gas, water and others) in the surrounding areas is in place and can adequately serve the project site-:--No new significant utility effects have been identified that were not identified and analyzed in the General Plan. The proposed project utility impacts remain consistent with the General Plan. No further evaluation or mitigation is required. IS 36 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY XVII. MANDA TORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE a) Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of major periods of California history or prehistory? b) Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effeCts of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects.) c) Does the project have environmental effects, which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Discussion: Potentially Significant Impact Less Than Significant With Mitigation Incorporation Less Than Significant Impact No Impact o o o t81 o o fZl o o o fZl o a) The proposed project site is surrounded by developed residential and commercial uses. The site is not within the Biological Resources Management Overlay. There is no evidence that there would be the potential for adverse effects on sensitive wildlife or viable sensitive wildlife habitat. The site does not contain structures or culturally significant features that would be eliminated by development of the proposed project. b) The development of the site as proposed would not cause adverse impacts on humans, either directly or indirectly. The Initial Study identified construction-related emissions criteria as having a potential impact, however. proposed mitigation measures will reduce the impacts to less than significant. Additionally. impacts related to air quality are short term and will cease once construction activities are completed. IS 37 CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES INITIAL STUDY c) The Initial Study identified short-tenn impacts to air quality and noise with development of the proposed project. The short tenn impacts will occur due to propose construction activities. Impacts to both air quality and noise can be mitigated by measures included in the Initial Study Sections V and X. The development of the project will contribute incrementally to the impacts associated with development in the area, including traffic, ambient noise, lighting, etc. This project is being developed on one of the last vacant parcels of land in this area of downtown San Bernardino. The project is compatible with development in the surrounding area and is consistent with the Zoning and General Plan. Regarding the properties covered by the amendment to the text of the Development Code, the amendment would require each mixed-use development to obtain a Conditional Use Pennit. This requirement will give greater scrutiny and control over land use activities in mixed-use projects and development of mixed-use projects. Each proposed future project will be evaluated in accordance with CEQA requirements. The amendment makes more likely that the subject properties will be developed in a manner less intense with commercial activities than if the amendment is not adopted.

This program has been prepared in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State and City of San Bernardino CEQA Guidelines. CEQA Section 2 I 081.6 requires adoption of a monitoring and/or reporting program for those measures or conditions imposed on a project to mitigate or avoid adverse effects on the environment. The law states that the monitoring or reporting program shall be designed to ensure compliance during project implementation. The Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program contain the following elements: 1. The mitigation measures are recorded with the action and procedure necessary to ensure compliance. The program lists the mitigation measures contained within the Initial Study. 2. A procedure for compliance and verification has been outlined for each mandatory mitigation action. This procedure designates who will take action, what action will be taken and when, and to whom and when compliance will be reported. 3. The program contains a separate Mitigation Monitoring and Compliance Record for each action. On each of these record sheets, the pertinent actions and dates will be logged, and copies of permits, correspondence or other data relevant will be retained by the City of San Bernardino. 4. The program is designed to be flexible. As monitoring progresses, changes to compliance procedures may be necessary based upon recommendations by those responsible for the program. If changes are made, new monitoring compliance procedures and records will be developed and incorporated into the program. The individual measures and accompanying monitoring/reporting actions follow. They are numbered in the same sequence as presented in the Initial Study.
