APPLICANT:
LaMesaR.V.

BACKGROUND
Shaco, Inc. is appealing the Planning Commission's approval of Conditional Use Permit (CUP)
No. 03-18, a request to expand the La Mesa RV dealership. The purpose of expanding the
business is to separate reconditioning/repair of used RV's and preparation of new RV's from the
retail use currently located at !OI E. Redlands Blvd. RV's will be parked and on display
outdoors, with no retail sales proposed at the new location. All retail sales will occur only at La
Mesa RV's existing business located at 101 E. Redlands Blvd. The vacant property is located at
125 E. Club Center Drive, at the intersection with Club Way, in the CR-3, Commercial Regional
Tri-City/Club land use district (see Exhibit I-Location Map).
At its meeting on September 16, 2003, the Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve
Conditional Use Permit No. 03-18 to allow La Mesa RV to expand into the property located at
125 E. Club Center Drive. Commissioners Coute, Enciso, Lockett, Lynch, Morris, and
Sauerbrun voted in favor of the motion to approve, and Commissioners Durr and Thrasher were
absent. Refer to the Planning Commission Staff Report (Exhibit 2) for a complete discussion.
The appellant spoke against the proposal and submitted a letter explaining their opposition.
Shaco, Inc. filed an appeal to the Mayor & Common Council on September 29, 2003 (see Exhibit
3-Appeal) requesting that the Mayor and Common Council overturn the decision of the
Planning Commission and disapprove Conditional Use Permit No. 03-18 based on the
appellant's specific grounds for appeal.
The appellant's specific grounds for appeal were submitted with the application and reiterate the
three reasons that were explained to the Planning Commission during the public hearing. The
Appeal No. 03-13
Hearing Date 11/03/03
Page 2
appellant disputes Findings of Fact Nos. 1, 2, 5, and 6 contained in the Planning Commission
Staff Report (Exhibit 2).
The appellant disputes Findings Nos. 1 and 2 by stating that the CUP approval is contrary to the
Tri-City/Club conceptual master plan. The City never formally adopted the Tri-City/Club
conceptual master plan; rather, the uses permitted within the CR-3 land use district include those
contemplated in the conceptual master plan, plus additional uses. The Development Code
supports the Tri-City/Club conceptual plan in that the CR-3 land use district allows sales of
R.V.'s south ofInterstate 10 only. Sales of autos and R.V.'s are prohibited north ofInterstate 10,
which is consistent with the Tri-City/Club conceptual plan. Therefore, the approved CUP does
not conflict with the General Plan, Development Code, or existing businesses in the vicinity.
The appellant disputes Findings Nos. 5 and 6 by stating that the proposed 6'0" decorative
wrought iron fence is "very offensive." The proposed location, height, material, and design of
the fence has met or exceeded all of the Development Code's requirements. The purpose of the
fence is to secure the numerous expensive vehicles parked at La Mesa RV. La Mesa RV intends
to construct the new fence to match the high-quality wrought iron fence surrounding the existing
dealership located at 101 E. Redlands Blvd. The Planning Commission required La Mesa RV to
install a 10'0" wide landscaped planter to include the wrought iron fence.
The appellant disputes Findings Nos. 5 and 6 by stating that an easement for ingress/egress and
parking prohibits La Mesa RV from enclosing a portion of the parking lot for the exclusive use
of La Mesa RV. The proposed placement of the fence will be west of the easement, and access
will not be affected.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
None. The applicant paid the processing and appeal fees.
RECOMMENDATION
That the Mayor and Common Council close the hearing and deny the appeal and uphold the
Planning Commission's approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 03-18, based upon the Findings
of Fact contained in the Planning Commission Staff Report, subject to the Conditions of
Approval and Standard Requirements.

REOUEST AND LOCATION
A request for approval of a Conditional Use Permit under authority of Development Code
~19.06.020 to expand the existing La Mesa RV dealership located at 101 W. Redlands
Boulevard into a vacant commercial building located at 125 E. Club Center Drive (see
Attachment A). The new facility will do repairing and reconditioning of RV's, as well as
indoor and outdoor RV displays. Retail sales will occur only at 101 E. Redlands Blvd.,
with employees escorting the customers to 125 E. Club Center Drive to see the displays.
La Mesa RV will install a 6'0" decorative black wrought iron fence around the property
(see Attachment B). The applicant also will install four 14'x14' roll-up doors and paint to
match the building. La Mesa RV will employ 25 people, and operates 7 days from 8:00
a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
SETTING/SITE CHARACTERISTICS
The building was constructed and the site improvements completed in 1984 (formerly
Costco). The building has been vacant since early 2003. The existing building will remain
the same size at 109,466 square feet, as well as the existing parking spaces and landscaping.
Adjacent to the southeast corner of the property is a water well and tank.
.-.'.-
it~
The area surrounding the property to the north is the existing La Mesa RV dealership and
Econo Lube 'N Tune in the CR-3 zone. To the east is Bryman College and multi-tenant
commercial buildings in the CR-3 zone. To the west is Extra Space self-storage, Club
Center Car Wash and Detailing, and multi-tenant commercial buildings in the CR-3 zone.
To the south is a railroad track, and a roofing wholesale business on the opposite side of the
track in the IL, Industrial Light zone.
BACKGROUND
The Planning Commission approved CUP No. 02-06 and Variance No. 02-02 on May 21,
2002, for establishment of La Mesa RV at 101 E. Redlands Blvd. The Development &
Environm!:ntal Review Committee (D/ERC) reviewed this project at its meeting of August
7, 2003 and moved to the Planning Commission. The proposed project is Categorically
Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act, pursuant to Section 15301 for
Existing Facilities.
FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS
1. Is the proposed use conditionally permitted within the subject land use district,
would it 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, the proposed dealership expansion as proposed and conditioned (see item #5
below), will be compatible with existing development surrounding it. Vehicle sales
are an appropriate land use in this area of the City, which presently includes several
heavy retail businesses. The visibility to Interstate 10, and the noise associated with
'c ;
'.'onditional Use Permit No. 03-18

this proximity to 1-10, also makes this retail use appropriate at this location, The
proposed project complies with all applicable provisions of the Development Code as
shown in Table" A. "

2. Is the proposed use consistent with the General Plan?
Yes, the proposed dealership expansion is consistent with a number of General Plan
goals, policies, and objectives. General Plan Goal IC states, "Provide for the
continuation and development of land uses which provide for the needs of and attract
regional populations, in addition to local residents." General Plan Policy L17,10
stares, "Permit a diversity of region-serving uses including corporate and
professional offices, retail commercial... warehouse/promotional retail, supporting
retail and services, and simiiar uses in areas designated as 'Commercial Regional:
Tri-City/Commercenter and Club' area (CR-3),"
The proposed project will promote and implement these General Plan goals and
policies. The proposed RV repair and reconditioning facility, as conditioned (see
item #5 below) will expand and enhance a regional retail opportunity for the City.
Goal 4D in the Economic Development Element states, "Maintain and enhance
commercial regional cores and economically sound community-serving commercial
concentrations. "

3. Is the approval of the Conditional Use Permit for the proposed use in
compliance with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act
and Section 1920.030(6) of the Development Code?
Yes, the project is exempt from CEQA under Section 15301 for Existing Facilities.
4, Are there potentially significant negative impacts upon environmental quality
and natural resources that could not be properly mitigated and monitored?
No, the proposal will not have any negative impacts upon environmental quality or
natural resources. The project represents the reuse of an existing building, and the
project is expected to generate less traffic than previous retail uses for which the site
was originally developed,
5.
Are the location. size. design. and operating characteristics of the proposed
use compatible with the existing and fUture land uses within the general area
in which the proposed use is to be located and will it create significant noise.
traffic or other conditions or situations that may be objectionable or
detrimental to other permitted uses in the vicinity or adverse to the public
interest. health. safety, convenience, or welfare of the City?
~~~
Yes, the dealership is compatible with existing and future land uses within the
general area. The proposed dealership expansion will not adversely impact adjacent
development, and should not generate significantly more traffic to the area.
Approval of the proposed expansion with Conditions of Approval will not create
significant noise, traffic, or other effects that may have negative consequences for
other uses in the area.
A. Refuse & Recyclin~
La Mesa RV had requested a waiver of the requirement to construct a dedicated
storage area for refuse material, explaining that their refuse would be 90% or greater
dry recyclable material (based on their existing operation at 101 E. Redlands Blvd.).
The Public Services Department denied the request because the waste stream
generated by the existing operation was almost entirely unrecoverable material. As a
result, La Mesa RV will be required to construct a double-wide refuse enclosure
according to City standards, as well as obtain recycling and refuse service. The
revised Site Plan (Attachment B) shows a new doublewide refuse enclosure in the
west parking lot.
B. Parkin~
Existing parking will be more than sufficient and no new spaces are necessary. Mr.
Wally Gage, Director of Development for La Mesa RV, explained at the D/ERC
meeting that they will provide employee parking at the new facility to free up more
display space for their existing display area at 101 E. Redlands Blvd. The existing
63 spaces at 101 E. Redlands Blvd. will be adequate for the customer parking. The
Conditions of Approval for this project require the business to maintain an
appropriate number of on-site customer and employee parking spaces between the
',nditional Use Permit No. 03-18
,eering Date: September 3, 2003
Page 5
two sites with no street parking permitted. The Conditions of Approval also require
that all loading and unloading of vehicles will occur on-site only, not on public streets.
C. Site Desi~n
The proposed RV parking and display will result in oils and chemicals being leaked
in small quantities on the parking lot areas when vehicles are cleaned and detailed.
A Condition of Approval has been included which requires the business to install oil
separators and similar interceptor structures to the satisfaction of the Water
Department.
La Mesa RV will install a 6'0" decorative black wrought iron fence on the north
(front), west (side), and south (rear) property lines for security purposes. The fence
will cut across the east-side parking lot so that it does not block reciprocal access to
the driveway. The existing driveway on the east end provides access to other
businesses in the neighboring center.
1~
.~~:
D. Landsc:q)in~
Existing landscaping will be sufficient. Approximately 15 % of the site is
landscaped, and 15% landscaping is required. The landscaping is in good condition
for this use, has been regularly maintained, and none will be removed for the
proposed use.
6.
Is the subject site physically suitable for the type and density/intensity of use
being proposed?
Yes, the site is an appropriate size for use by the dealership in the existing building,
as conditioned in item #5 above. There is a large parking lot surrounding the
building for the exclusive use by La Mesa RV.
The existing site design is suitable for proposed use, in that the two existing
driveways provide adequate access. The east driveway provides access to
neighboring businesses, and the new fence will not impede or restrict the use of that
driveway. The west driveway provides the applicant with direct access to the
existing La Mesa RV dealership across the street.
7. Are there adequate provisions for public access, water, sanitation, and public
utilities and services to ensure that the proposed use would not be detrimental
to public health and safety?
Yes, all agencies responsible for reviewing access, providing water, sanitation, and
other public services have all had the opportunity to review the proposal. None of
the agencies have indicated an inability to serve the proposed use. This proposal will
not be detrimental to the public's health and safety, and all applicable Codes will
apply to the operation of the dealership.

necessary Findings of Fact for approval.

City of San Bernardino Planning Commission
HAND DELIVERED
RE: Conditional Use Pennit No. 03-18 ("The Subject Property")
Honorable Members Of The Planning Commission:
Shaco Inc. is the owner of the property adjoining and directly to the east of The Subject Property.
Shaco owns 94, 674 sq. ft of building on approximately 5.41 acres offee simple land and 2.57
acres of leasehold. Our buildings are occupied by Bryman College, Wickes Furniture, and
Stacks (a furniture store) and are referred to as a part of the Club Center ("The Club Center").
We object to the issuance of Conditional Use Permit No. 03-18 for the following reasons:
I. A fenced parking lot and service center for RV's is contrary to the conceptual master site
plan of "The Club Center". The existing Zoning for the area is completely supportive of
and was created hand in hand with the conceptual plan from day one. (copy enclosed).
Shaco and its neighbors have struggled through tough economic times for many years
and are just beginning to see the light. A change in the zoning for this kind of use will
devastate Shaco and its neighbors in the Club Center. As a point of information, in the
Wickes FurniturelShaco lease, the Landlord is prohibited from leasing in the center to
Auto or Truck Sales and/or repairs and car washes. This prohibition doesn't apply
specificaIly to the subject property but we mention it because it serves as an example of
the intent and concept of the Club Center which its owners and tenants rely on.
2. Also as further point of infofl!lation Shaco having suffered though several years of vacant
space had an offer to lease 19,010 sq. ft. to a Tile and Carpet store. This tenant would
have fit in perfectly with Wickes Furniture and the other furniture stores in Phase II of the
Club Center. The Tile and Carpet Store intended to use the majority of the space for a
retail showroom and wanted to use about 30% of the space in the rear for fabricating and
customizing for their customers. Shaco went to the San Bernardino City Planning
Department and was told they could not have this use, as it wasn't allowed in the CRJ
zoning plan. We asked what chance of getting II variance and were told extremely
unlikely and probably a waste of money to try. We were very disappointed particularly
since the majority of the store from appearance and practicality was all retail. However
we accepted that the rules are the rules and continued making best efforts'to fmd a tenant
that conformed with the zoning rules.

3. Regarding the fencing of the parking lot, Shaco, its tenants and their customers and the
other Owners of property in the Club Center have been using the parking area of "The
Subject Property" for parking, ingress and egress for more than 13 years. Our attorney
has advised us that we have a Prescriptive Easement on The Subject Property and that in
the event The Subject Property is fenced that we should file suit.
Regardless of the fact that we have a Prescriptive Easement on the Subject Property it
should not be fenced, as a fence no matter what its made of, what color its painted or how
pretty it is designed to be, gives a jail like effect, a separation from the pwpOse and
conception of The Club Center and will destroy the continuity of the Club Center and
harm all the owners and tenants of the Club Center. We have seen the existing wrought
iron fence at La Mesa RV on Redlands Blvd. and while it looks better than a cyclone
fence and may be expensive it does not belong in the middle of the Club Center parking
area and being misplaced there it would be ugly
Sincerely yours,
