CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCn.. ACTION
STAFF REPORT
Subject:
Initiation of a General Plan Amendment and Development Code Amendment to
pennit drive-thru restaurants in the Central City South Plan area.
Mayor and Common Council Meeting of March 17, 1997
BACKGROUND
The Central City South Plan was adopted by the Mayor and Common Council in 1991, and
includes the area between Rialto Avenue, "E" Street, Inland Center Drive and 1-215. The
majority of the area north of Mill Street is designated CCS-l which pennits limited general
commercial uses. Drive-thru restaurants are not pennitted on the west side of "E" Street in the
CCS-l, but are pennitted on the east side of "E" Street in the CG-l, Commercial General land
use district.
"E" Street, between Mill Street and Rialto Avenue, contains several drive-thru restaurants in
both land use districts that were established before current development requirements were in
place. The Mad Greek is an existing restaurant on the west side of "E" Street that would like
to submit a conditional use pennit application to establish a drive-thru, but is precluded because
of the prohibition.
The purpose of the Central City South Plan was to establish a link between the two malls with
destination retail and entertainment uses. 1 feel that drive-thru restaurants do not conflict with
this intent.
COSTS TO CITY
Staff estimates that it will cost approximately $2500 for completion of a General Plan
Amendment and Development Code Amendment.
RECOMMENDATION
1 recommend that Planning staff be directed to prepare General Plan and Development Code
Amendments to modify or delete the Central City South Plan to allow drive-thru restaurants
along "E" Street.
