BACKGROUND
The applicant requests that the Mayor and Common Council approve Development Code
Amendment No. 07-01 to modify Section 19.08.020, Table 08.01 of the Development Code to
allow social service centers in the IL, Industrial Light land use district subject to approval of a
Conditional Use Permit. Also requested is a Conditional Use Permit to construct a 2-story,
34,833 square foot men's shelter facility and rehabilitation center on approximately 8.8 acres of
land. The proposed facility will be constructed on a vacant 2.2-acre area in the northeastern
portion of an 8.8-acre site located at 363 South Doolittle Road. The project site is located on the
east side of Doolittle Road and the west side of Lena Road, approximately 400 feet north of Mill
Street in the IL, Industrial Light land use district (Exhibit I).
The Development Code Amendment would be applicable in IL districts Citywide. Currently,
Development Code Section 19.08.020 does not permit social service centers in any industrial
land use districts. The proposed Code amendment would revise the limitation on social service
centers in the IL district to allow them on any property in the IL district, subject to approval of a
Conditional Use Permit. The Amendment is proposed to accommodate growing demand' for new
social service sites and to improve the availability and accessibility of social service programs in
the community. The Planning Commission Staff Report (Exhibit 2) presents the proposed Code
amendment and findings for adoption of the ordinance (Exhibit 3).
At its meeting on August 7, 2007, the Planning Commission recommended approval of
Development Code Amendment No. 07-01 and Conditional Use Permit No. 07-03. The Planning
Commission voted unanimously in favor ofthe proposed amendment and the proposed project.
Commissioners Dailey, Durr, Hawkins, Heasley, Mulvihill, Munoz, and Sauerbrun voted in
support of the motion and Commissioners Coute, Longville, and Rawls were absent.

REQUEST AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed project is a request for approval of Development Code Amendment No.. 07-01 to
modify Section 19.08.020, Table 08.01 of the Development Code to allow social service centers
in the II.., Industrial Light land use district subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit. The
Development Code Amendment would be applicable in II.. districts Citywide. The project also
includes a request for a Conditional Use Permit under the authority of Development Code
Section 19.08.020, Table 08.01 (34) to construct a 2-story, 34,833 square foot men's shelter
facility and rehabilitation center on approximately 8.8 acres of land. The proposed facility will be
constructed on a vacant 2.2-acre area near the northeast comer of the 8.8-acre site located at 363
Doolittle Road. The project site is located on the east side of Doolittle Road and the west side of
Lena Road, approximately 400 feet north of Mill Street in the II.., Industrial Light land use
district (Attachments A & B).
Presently, Development Code Section 19.08.020 does not allow social service centers as a
permitted or a conditional use in any industrial land use districts. The proposed amendment will
modify Section 19.08.020, Table 08.01 (Attachment C) to allow social service centers in the II..,
Industrial Light land use district subject to approval of a Conditional Use Permit. The
Amendment is proposed to accommodate growing demand for new social service sites and to
improve the availability and accessibility of social service programs in the community.
The project site consists of one parcel, approximately 8.8 acres in area. The proposed project
involves construction of a 2-story, men's shelter/rehabilitation building to accommodate 17
rooms on the first floor and 24 rooms on the second floor. The first floor will provide a dinning
area, a kitchen, a laundry room, a shower room, a TV room, a library, a chapel, counseling
offices, classrooms and an on-site manager's dwelling unit. The second floor will accommodate
bedrooms, a shower area and a laundry area. The proposed facility offers three room types, a 144
sq. ft. I-man residence unit, a 264 sq. ft. 3-man residence unit and a 432 sq. ft. 4-man residence

Pagd
The existing Salvation Army facility has 169 parking stalls on-site. An additional 51 parking
stalls will be added to accommodate the proposed facility for a total of 220 stalls on-site. Access
to the facility will be through two existing driveways on Doolittle Road. A 6-foot wrought iron
fence with pilasters will be constructed along the northerly and easterly property boundaries to
replace chain link fencing and secure the site. The proposed project will provide on-site
amenities to include a workout area, and a swimming pool.
The new building features prominent architectural treatments and other articulation of the
structure design, including traditional forms and contemporary features with complementary
finish materials.
SETTING/SITE CHARACTERISTICS
The site is relative flat and contains the existing Salvation Army warehouse and administration
facility that was constructed in the 1980's and provides many support services for Salvation
Army social services in the surrounding area. Surrounding uses to the south abutting the site are
industrial uses in the OIP, Office Industrial Park land use district. To the west across Doolittle
Road and to the north abutting the site are industrial buildings in the IL district. To the east
across Lena Road are vacant lots in the IL district.
BACKGROUND
The Development/Environmental Review Committee (D/ERC) first reviewed this proposal on
March 22, 2007 and concurred that an environmental review pursuant to the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) would be required for the proposed facility. On June 21,
2007, the D/ERC reviewed the proposal again, determined that the Initial Study adequately
addressed the environmental issues and recommended that a draft Mitigated Negative
Declaration be circulated for a 20-day public review beginning on June 28, 2007 and moved the
project to Planning Commission. The D/ERC independently reviewed, analyzed, and exercised
judgement in reviewing the Initial Study and mitigation measures and making its determination.
No comments were received during the public review and comment period.
The Salvation Army has been providing social services in the City of San Bernardino for many
years. The imminent widening and improvement ofI-215 necessitates relocation of the Salvation
Army men's residence/shelter facility located at 925 W. lOth Street. The proposed facility will be
superior to the existing Salvation Army men's residence facility in that it will be larger, provide
more amenities and provide for improved delivery of services and training than the existing
facility.
The existing Salvation Army facility on Doolittle Drive I) dispatches 15 trucks throughout the
county to receive donations at up to 200 sites each day, 2) processes, evaluates, and ships
donated personal property ofvarious kinds including clothing, furniture, appliances, sporting
goods, books, and a variety of other items donated by a households or a businesses, 3) processes
intake of new residents into the rehabilitation program five days a week, 4) conducts individual
counseling sessions hourly during business days, and 5) provides administration and accounting
of retail, rehabilitation and production activities. The current office hours are from 7:00 a.m. to
4:00 p.m., Monday thru Friday and 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., Saturday. The hours of operation for
the temporary tent thrift store are 10:00 a.m. thru 7:00 p.m., Monday thru Saturday.

FINDINGS AND ANALYSIS - DEVELOPMENT CODE AMENDMENT
1. Is the proposed amendment consistent with the General Plan?
General Plan Goal 3.4 states: "Assist the provision of housing for residents with special
needs"
General Objective 3.4 states: "provide suitable housing for residents with unique
financial, physical, and lor lifestyle characteristics whose needs might not otherwise be
met in the private housing market.
The proposal is consistent with the above goal and objective of the General Plan. The
proposed amendment will allow Chapter 19.08 to be modified to permit development of
various social service centers in the IL, Industrial Light land use district subject to
approval of a Conditional Use Permit. Specifically, this amendment will modify Section
19.08.020, Table 08.01 to allow social service centers as a conditional use in the IL
district. The proposed amendment would increase opportunities for social services to
establish facilities in areas that are adjacent to the goods and services of central business
districts, and may provide employment or other services and opportunities without
creating a negative impact on the public health, safety and welfare.
2.
Would the proposed amendment be detrimental to the public interest, health,
safety. convenience, or welfare of the City?
The proposed amendment would modify regulations on the establishment of a conditional
use in the IL district. This proposal will not be detrimental to the public interest, health,
safety, convenience, or welfare of the City, in that the amendment will allow industrial
sites to the subject site to retain the industrial land use designation and character and
would not limit, restrict or reduce permitted uses over the IL district. Additionally, an
Initial 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 - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
1.
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?
Pursuant to Development Code Section 19.08.030 (18) amended as proposed, a social
service center would be an allowed use in the IL, Industrial Light 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 for development of the
proposed project, as shown in Table "A".

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 J 9.20. 030(6)
of the Development Code?
Approval of this Conditional Use Permit is in compliance with the requirements of the
California Environmental Quality Act and Development Code Section 19.20.030 (6)
pertaining to environmental resources and constraints. Approval of the proposed project
would not result in any potentially significant environmental impacts which could not be
mitigated to a less than significant level. The necessary infrastructure is in place or will
be extended to handle the anticipated service demand resulting from the proposed project.
It is anticipated that the impacts relating to traffic, noise, air quality, cultural resources,
geology and soils, hazardous materials and water quality will be less than significant with
implementation of the proposed mitigation measures in the Mitigation
MonitoringlReporting Plan (MM/RP).
4.
Are there potentially significant negative impacts upon environmental quality and natural
resources that could not be properly mitigated and monitored?
As noted in Finding No.3, this project complies with the CEQA requirements and
Development Code Section 19.20.030 (6). The proposal would not create significant
impacts that could not be mitigated. No significant harmful effects on the quality of the
environment or on natural resources will exist as a result of this project. The site can be
adequately served by all required utilities and public services.
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 not 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?
The Salvation Army already operates a donation repository, workshop, storage and
distribution facility at the project site. Residents of the proposed shelter/rehabilitation
facility may be employed at the site, or may work off-site during the day and return to the
site for lodging, meals, training and rehabilitation programs. The proposed 2-story men"s
rehabilitation facility will enhance and complete the existing Salvation Army campus on
the project site. Highly structured supervision and training of shelter residents will ensure
compatibility of the proposed land use with surrounding industrial properties. Since the
proposed project will be integrated with existing facilities on the project site, and as
detailed in the analysis of the Initial Study, no significant impact on surrounding
properties or the public health, safety, convenience or welfare is anticipated.
The architectural design and character of the proposed development will enhance existing
conditions on the project site, and will complement surrounding industrial developments.
The proposed facility will be compatible with the industrial buildings developed in the
area and consistent with all provisions of the Chapter 19.08, Industrial Districts.

6. Is the subject site physically suitable for the type and density/intensity of use being
proposed?
The site is physically suitable for the type and density/intensity of the project being
proposed as evidenced by project compliance with all applicable Development Code
Standards as noted in Table "A". There are no physical constraints that would limit
development of the site as proposed.
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?
All agencies responsible for reviewing access and providing water, sanitation and other
public services have had the opportunity to review the proposal and already serve the
project site. The proposal will not be detrimental to the public health and safety in that all
applicable Codes will apply to the construction of this project.
CONCLUSION
The proposal meets all applicable Findings of Fact for approval of Development Code
Amendment No. 07-01 and Conditional Use Permit No. 07-03.

Street are not considered scenic routes. The proposed project includes the construction of a
124-bed Rehabilitation Residence to be located on the same property as the existing Salvation
Army Warehouse and related facilities. The existing warehouse is a metal tilt-up style building
and is not considered a historic building. The proposed development would not have an adverse
affect on a historical building. Similarly, there are no rock outcroppings or trees that would be
adversely affected by the proposed project. No impacts are anticipated.
The project site includes the existing Salvation Army Warehouse, tented thrift store,
administration building. parking lots and landscaping. Construction of the I 24-bed Rehabilitation

Discussion:
a) As noted in the City of San Bernardino General Plan Program EIR (Section 4.3.2), continued
development within the city will significantly contribute to the further degradation of the
ambient air quality of the South Coast Air Basin. The primary cause of the adverse impacts is
daily vehicle trips associated with maximum buildout of the City. Any development within the
San Bernardino area will aggravate the existing air quality that currently does not meet State or
Federal air quality criteria. The proposed project is subject to a Conditional Use Permit (CUP)
and would also require an amendment to the City's Development Code to allow social service
c<:nters as a permined use within the Light Industrial land use district. The proposed project is
considered a less intense land use since it would result in less vehicle trips and emissions as
compared to industrial development. The project would not conflict with South Coast Air
Quality .\Janagem<:nt Plan. Therefore, no impact is amicipated.

The.proposed project is thc development of the Rehabilitation Residence; a 34,833 square-foot
12.:1-bed rehabilitation cenkr. Proposed site development and construction was screened using
the Crban Emission Model 2002 version 8.7 (URBE.\llS 2002) prepared by the South Coast Air
Quality Managcmcnt District (SCAQMD). This modd is used to generate emissions estimates

INITIAL STUDY
for land use dcvelopment projects. The criteria pollutants screened for included: reactive organic
gases (ROG). nitrous oxid.:s (!'IiO,), carbon monoxide (CO), and particulates (PMIO). Two of
these. ROG and NO,. are ozone precursors. The emission levels listed reflect the estimated
\\ illl.:r season levels. \\ hich arc normally higher due to atmospheric conditions (marine layer)
and increased use of heating systems. The general construction phases for most projects include
site grading and building. URBEMIS 2002 calculates emissions assuming the phases do not
overlap.
Construction Emissions
C'onstmction grading and building emissions are considered short-term, temporary emissions and
are estimated in Tables I thru 3. The following construction parameters were assumed: site
grading would occur for an approximate J.3-month duration and building construction would
occur for an approximate 10.7-month duration. Dust control measures as required by SCAQMD
are incorporated in calculating the emissions estimates. Once construction is complete and the
building is in use, emissions will be generated by energy utilized for on-site building heating and
cooling, and vehicular traffic.
PM2., emissions were calculated using the methodology presented in SCAQMD's "Final
Methodology to Calculate Particulate Matter (PM) 2.5 and PM2., Significance Thresholds"
(October 2006). The PM10 emissions were calculated using the above methodologies and then
multiplying the PM10 emissions by the applicable PM25 percentage derived from the appropriate
emission source, using PM profiles in the California Emission Inventory Data and Reporting
System (CEIDRS) developed by the California Air Resource Board (CARB) and shown below.
· Passenger Vehicles: 93 percent
· Delivery Trucks: 9D percent
· Heavy Trucks: 92 percent
· Off-Road Equipment: 92 percent
· Fugitive Dust: 21 percent
· Demolition: 21 percent
The emissions calculations for the construction phase include fugitive dust from grading and
exhaust emissions from on-site equipment and worker travel. Construction emissions are
calculated based on the development of a 34,833 square-foot 124-bed Rehabilitation Residence.
The fugitive dust emissions are based on approximately 2.2 acres being graded over a 1.3-month
period. Construction impacts are considered short-term. temporary impacts and are not
anticipated to occur for more than a year.

As shown in Tables I through 3, construction emissions would not exceed SCAQMD thresholds
for any criteria pollutants.
ComDlial/ce Wi1h SCAOMD Rilles 1113. 402. and 403
Although the proposed project does not exceed SCAQMD thresholds for construction emissions,
the applicant is required 10 comply with all applicable SCAQMD rules and regulations as the
South Coast Air Basin is in non-attainment status for ozone and suspended paniculates (PM1o).
Compliallce Wi1h SCAQMD Rule 1113
Architectural Coatings are coatings applied to stationary sources and their trimmings, to portable
buildings, to pavements, or to curbs. Trimmings are accessories to an architectural structure,
including, but not limited to: handrailings, cabinets, bathroom and kitchen fixtures, fences, .
decks. rain gutters and downspouts, window screens, lamp posts, signs, concrete forms, heating
and air conditioning equipment large fixed stationary tools, and other mechanical equipment.
One of the key ingredients contributing to ozone fomlation are solvents, which contain volatiles
referred to as volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These solvents are commonly found in many.
architectural and industrial paints. SCAQMD has studied the cumulative VOC emissions from
architectural painting operations and has found that these emissions exceed the combined
emissions from a variety of industrial operations. Emissions from the application of architectural
and industrial maintenance coatings during the summer months, typically known as the peak
painting and smog season, are estimated to be more than 38 tons each day. VOCs from solvent
and paint emissions contribute to harmful ozone formation. To reduce VOC's from architectural
coating, the SCAQMD has set VOC limits for coating in Rule 1113.
To further reduce impacts from VOC emissions, the applicant wiII be required to implement the
following conditions as required by SCAQMD:
I. The contractor shall utilize (as much as possible) pre-coated building materials and
coating transfer or spray equipment with high transfer efficiency, such as high volume,
low pressure (HVLP) spray method, or manual coating applications such as paint brush,
hand roller, trowel, dauber, rag, or sponge.
2. The contractor shall utilize water-based or low VOC coating as well as the following
conditions as required by SCAQMD:
. l'se Super-Compliant VOC paints whene'.er possible.
. If feasible, avoid painting during peak smog Season: July, August, and September.
. Recycle leftover paint. Take any leftover paint to a household hazardous waste
center; do not mix leftover water-based and oil-based paints.
. Keep lids closed on all paint containers when not in use to prevent VOC emissions
and excessive odors.

o For water-based paints. clean up with water only. Whenever possible, do not rinse the
clean-up water down the drain or pour it directly into the ground or the storm
drain. Set aside the can of clean-up water and take it to a hazardous waste center
(www.c1eanup.org).
o Recyc Ie the empty paint can.
o Look for non-solvent containing stripping products.
o Cse Compliant Low-VOC cleaning solvents to clean paint application equipment.
o Keep all paint and solvent laden rags in sealed containers to prevent VOC emissions.
Compliance Il.ilh SCAQMD Rule 402, and 403
The project shall comply with, Rules 402 nuisance, and 403, fugitive dust, which require the
implementation of Best Available Control Measures (BACM) for each fugitive dust source, and
the Air Quality Management Plan (AMCP), which identifies Best Available Control
Technologies (BACT) for area sources and point sources, respectively. This would include, but
not be limited to the following:
I.
The project proponent shall ensure that any portion of the site to be graded shall be pre-
watered prior to the onset of grading activities.
(a) The project proponent shall ensure that watering of the site or other soil stabilization
method shall 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 shall be watered
regularly to ensure that a crust is formed on the ground surface, and shall be watered
at the end of each workday.
(b) The project proponent shall ensure that all disturbed areas are treated to prevent
erosion until the site is constructed upon.
(c) The project proponent shall ensure that landscaped areas are installed as soon as
possible to reduce the potential for wind erosion.
(d) 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.
During construction. exhaust emissions from construction vehicles and equipment and fugitive
dust generated by equipment traveling over exposed surfaces, would increase NOx and PMIO
levels 111 the area. Although the proposed project does not exceed SCAQMD thresholds during
construction. the applicant will be required to implement the following conditions as required by
SCAQMD:
2.
To reduce emissions, all equipment used in grading and construction must be tuned and
maintained to the manufacturer's specification to maximize efficient burning of vehicle
fuel.

3. Thc project proponent shall ensure that existing power sources are utilized where feasible
via temporary power poles to avoid on-site po\\er generation during construction.
4. The project proponent shall ensure that construction personnel are informed of ride
sharing and transit opportunities.
5. All buildings on the project site shall confonll to energy use guidelines in Title 24 of the
California Administrative Code.
6. The operator shall maintain and effectively utilize and schedule on-site equipment in
order to minimize exhaust emissions from truck idling.
7. The operator shall comply with all existing and future CARB and SCAQMD regulations
related to diesel-fueled trucks, which may include among others: (I) meeting more
stringent emission standards; (2) retrofitting existing engines with particulate traps; (3)
use oflow sulfur fuel; and (4) use of alternative fuels or equipment.
Ooerational Emissions
The operational mobile source emissions were calculated using the Institute of Transportation
Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual 6th edition values programmed into the URBEMIS
2002 model. In order to reflect the nature of the proposed project, the default value for a Hospital
Land Use was used to generate a worst-case analysis. Therefore, 17.57 daily trips per 1,000
square feet (approximately 4.9 trips per bed) or 612 daily trips were used. Emissions associated
with these vehicle trips are less than significant as shO\\ll in Table 4.

As indicatcd in Table 4. operational emissions of the proposed project would not exceed
SCAQMD thresholds.
The proposed project individually would not exceed any SCAQMD thresholds for criteria
pollutants. The. City of San Bernardino General Plan EIR (Section 4.3.2) concluded that
continued development would contribute to pollutant levels (buildout, daily vehicle trips) in the

DEVELOPMENT SERVICES
I~ITIAL STL:DY
San Bernardino area. which already exceed State and Federal air quality criteria. Findings on
potentially signi licant impacts of the General Plan indicated that policies contained in the
General Plan and mitigations in the EIR are expected to reduce emissions associated with future
development. However, even after application of these policies and mitigation measures, the
General Plan when viewed as a whole project, is expected to generate emissions levels that
would exceed the AQMD thrcsholds for criteria pollutants, resulting in a significant unavoidable
adverse air quality impact. A Statement of Overriding Considerations for the General Plan EIR
was adopted by the City Council in November 2005.
d) The project site is predominately surrounded by light industrial land uses. The proposed project is
not anticipated to exceed SC AQMD thresholds as discussed above. Therefore, air quality impacts
to sensitive receptors, associated with the development of the proposed project, are not
anticipated.
e) The proposed project is the development of a 124-bed Rehabilitation Center on an approximate
2.2-acre site within the IL land use district. The end use of the proposed project is not anticipated
to generate emissions that could cause climatic changes or create objectionable odors. No impact
is anticipated.

a) The project site does not occur within an area designated as critical habitat for any biological
resource. The site and surrounding area occur within a developed industrial area. No substantial
adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a
candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations,
or by the California Department of Fish and Game or the United States Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) is anticipated.
b) According to Figure NRC-2 of the General Plan, no riparian habitat occurs on or near the project
site. Therefore, the project would not have a substantial adverse effect on any riparian habitat or
other sensitive natural community identified in local or regional plans, policies, regulations, or
by the California Department ofFish and Game or USFWS.
c) The project would not have a substantial adverse effect on federally protected wetlands as
defined by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (including, but not limited to, marsh, vernal pool,
coastal, etc.) through direct removal, filling, hydrological interruption. or other means. because
the project site is developed and is not within an identified protected wetland, nor near any
drainage.
dl
The proposed project sire is surrounded by existing development and portions of the site are
currently paved. and there tore, is unlikely to provide an important location relative to regional
wildlife movement. Wildlife movement near the site has been restricted by development.
including road constmctiOIl. Therefore, project implementation would not impact a local or
regional wildlife corridor.

e) The project would not conllict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological
resources. as the site is currently developed and tho:re are no identified biological resources that
are subject to such regulation. The nearest consen'ation area is the Cajon Creek ICal Mat)
Habitat Conservation Management Area located approximately five miles northwest of the site.
The proposed project would not conflict with the provisions of an adopted habitat conservation
plan. natural community conservation plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat
conservation plan.

d) Paleontological resources are the fossilized remains of organisms from prehistoric environments
found in geologic strata. Paleontological sites generally occur as small outcroppings visible on
the surface of sites encountered during grading. Generally, it is geologic formations that contain
lossils. Potentially sensitive areas for the presence of paleontological resources are based on the
underlying geologic fomlalion. Fossil remains may occur throughout the City. Since the
distribution is unkno\\n. the following mitigation measure shall be implemented:
CR-I: Should resources be unearthed during grading, a vertebrate paleontologist shall be
contacted to determine the significance, and make recommendations for
appropriate mitigation measures in compliance with the guidelines of the California
Environmental Quality Act.
Implementation of the above mitigation measure would reduce impacts to potential
paleontological resources to a less than significant level.

Construction activities, particularly grading, could adversely affect or eliminate unknown
potential archaeological resources. The following mitigation measures shall be implemented:
CR-2: In the event that human remains are encountered during grading, all provisions of

The near level, irregular shaped project site consists of an existing Salvation Army Warehouse
building, related facilities, paved parking lots and landscaping. The proposed development
includes one, two-story structure to be constructed of concrete block or concrete tilt-up with
continuous wall footings and concrete slab-on-grade. Moderate site preparation and grading are
expected with the proposed development.
In December 2006, Soils Southwest, Inc. performed a Soils and Foundation Evaluation for the
site, The purpose of the investigation was to provide geotechnical recommendations for
foundation design, concrete slab-on-grade, retaining wall, paving, parking, site grading, utility
trench excavations and backfill, and inspections during construction. The evaluation for the site
included subsurface explorations, soil sampling, necessary laboratory testing, and engineering
analyses. As concluded in the report, the site is considered suitable for the proposed
development provided that recommendations presented in the report are incorporated into the
tinal design and construction. Implementation of the following general grading mitigation
measures would reduce potential impacts to a less than significant level.
GS-l: Areas to be graded, backfilled or paved, shall be grubbed, stripped and cleaned of
all buried and undetected debris, structures, concrete, vegetation and other
deleterious materials prior to grading,
GS-2: Where compacted fill is to provide vertical support for foundations, all loose, soft
and other incompetent soils sball be remo\'Cd to full deptb as approved by tbe soils
engineer, or at least up to the depth as previously described in the report. Tbe areas
of such remo\'al should extend at least five feet beyond the perimeter of exterior
foundation limits.

GS-3: The /ills to support foundations and slab-on grade should be compacted to a
minimum 90 percl'nt of the soil's Maximum Dry Density at 3 to 5 percent over
optimum.
GS-4: Utility trenches within building pad areas and beyond should be backfilled with
granular material and should be mechanically compacted to at least 90 percent of
the Maximum 01"}' Densi!)' for tbe material used.
GS-5: Compaction for all/ill soils shall be determined relative to the maximum dry density
as determined by method ASTM 01557. In-situ field density of compacted fill sball
be determined by AST!\I Standard 01556. or by other approved procedures.
GS-6: If imported soils are proposed, tbey shall be clean, granular, non-expansive in
nature as approved by a soils engineer.
GS-7: Fill soils sball be placed as tbin layers, the thIckness of which following compaction,
sball not exceed six inches. No rocks over six incbes in diameter shall be permitted
within grading material..
e
GS-S: Any and all grading required for pavement, side-walk or other facilities to be used
by the general public.sbould be constructed under direct supervision of a soils
engineer or as required by the City.
b-c)
The project site is located outside of an Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Zone as depicted on
Figure S-3 of the City's General Plan. Reviews of official maps delineating State of California
earthquake fault zones (7.5 Minute Series, State of California Special Studies Zones, San
Bernardino North Quadrangle, Official Map) indicated the site is not located within a zone for
mandatory study for active faulting. According to Figure S-3 of the City's General Plan, the site
is situated approximately 1.7 miles northeast of the San Jacinto-San Bernardino Fault Zone.
Earthquakes, due to their ground acceleration and shifting, can cause major damage to buildings
'and create dangerous hazards to people through injury or death. Development in the seismically
active southern California region must mitigate these potential hazards through strict adherence
to the California Building Code (CBC) and recommendations by geotechnical engineers.
Although the project site is located outside the Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Zone. the
developer will be required to implement established building construction requirements. Impacts
trom earthquake hazards would be less than significant.
d hI
hllp"~mentation of mitigation measures GS-I through GS-8 would ensure no unstable soil
conditions would occur due to excavation, grading. or fill activities. However. during the
construction phase. project dust may be generated due to the operation of machinery on-site or
due to high winds. Additionally, erosion of soils could occur due to a storm event. The City of
San Bernardino requires the preparation of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) for
development projects that fall within one of eight project categories established by the RWQCB.
Since the proposed project includes the construction of a 34.833 square-foot structure on the

same property as the existing Salvation Anny Warehouse and tented Thrift Store, it is considered
a significant re-development projcct. Refer to the Hydrology and Water Quality section of this
Initial Study for a comprehensive discussion.
e-O The project site is not located within an area that has geologic hazards associated with landslides.
However, the site is located in an area subject to liquefaction as identified in Section 10.0 Safety,
Figure S-5 of the City's General Plan. In accordance with General Plan Policy 10.9.2, a
geotechnical investigation was prepared for the project.
Liquefaction is caused by build up of excess hydrostatic pressure in saturated cohesionless soils
due to cyclic stress generated by ground shaking during an earthquake. The significant factors
on which liquefaction potential of a soil deposit depends, among others include, soil type,
relative soil density, intensity of earthquake, duration of ground shaking, and depth of ground
water. A nearby well (0IS-/04W-IIK005S [Lena Road 2]) had a water level of73.96 feet below
ground surface on November 15,2005.
With the historical high groundwater table in the area reported at 10 feet by the USGS Special
Bulletin 1894, and the presence of very loose to loose sandy soils at the site, the site soil
liquefaction potential due to strong motion earthquakes is considered "highly susceptible" to
earthquake induced potential liquefaction. As concluded in the soils investigation, based on field
explorations, laboratory testing and subsequent engineering analysis completed to date, from a
geotechnical viewpoint, the site is considered suitable for the planned development, provided the
report's structural design recommendations are incorporated. Soils liquefaction analysis was
perfonned using CivilTech Software, V5.2E LiquefyPro liquefaction and settlement analysis
software. The results of the analysis are provided in the soils report and were used in the
development of structural design recommendations. Implementation of one of the following
report recommended foundations (Alternative I and Alternative 2) as mitigation measures,
would reduce potential impacts associated with liquefaction to less than significant levels: .
GS-9: Alternative I-Conventional Spread Foundations
Tbe proposed structure shall be supported by "warne-type" spread footings placed
witbin engineered fill compacted to a minimum 90 percent using local soils or
equivalent. Tbe foundation system shall include load bearing perimeter
foundations. along witb interior interconnected grade beams. adequately tied to
exterior foundation systems. Tbe interior footings sball be installed to maintain a
maximum 8-foot by 8-foot "cbeckered" spacing encompassing the entire building
footprint area.
All conv'entional footings shall be sized to a minimum of 15 inches by 18 incbes or as
designed by the structural engineer based upon seismic design parameters and
horizontal peak ground acceleration .as provided in the Soils and Foundation
Ev'aluation.

kept in compliance with State and local regulations. With implementation of Best Management
Practices (BfI,IPs) and compliance with all applicable regulations, potential impacts from the use
of hazardous materials is considered less than signiticant.
c) The project would not emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely hazardous
materials, substances, or waste within Y..-mile of a school. The nearest school is Burbank
Elementary Schooi located at 198 West Mill Street, approximately one mile west of the project
site. No impact is anticipated.
d) The project site does not occur on a list of hazardous materials sites compiled pursuant to
Government Code Section 65962.5, and therefore would not create a significant hazard to the
public or the environment. During a site visit conducted in April 2007, no use of hazardous
materials was observed at the site.
e) As shown in Figure LU-4 of the City's General Plan, the project site occurs within the San
Bernardino International Airport (SBIA) Influence Area. In accordance with policies listed in the
City's General Plan, Chapter 2 Land Use, new development is required to protect the airspace of
the SBIA and to minimize safety impacts on citizens and businesses. Implementation of the
following policies, as outlined in the City's General Plan would ensure potential safety issues are.

2.9.5 Ensure that the height of structures do not impact navigable airspace, as defined in the
Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the San Bernardino International Airport.
2.9.6 As required by State Law for real estate transactions within the Airport Influence Area,
require notificatiollidisclosure statements to alert potential buyers and tenants of the
presence of and potential impacts from the San Bernardino International Airport.
Review of site plans and incorporation of the above policies would ensure potential impacts to
the SBIA are reduced to a less than significant level.
t)
The California Emergency Services Act requires the City to manage and coordinate the overall
emergency and recovery activities within its jurisdictional boundaries. The City's Emergency
Operations Plan includes policies and procedures to be administered by the City in the event of a
disaster. During disasters, the City is required to coordinate emergency operations with the
("ounty of San Bernardino. Policies within the City's General Plan and updates to the City's
Emergency Plan. as required by State law, would ensure the proposed project would not interfere
with adopted policies and procedures. The proposed I 24-bed Rehabilitation Residence does not
include the removal or the addition to existing access points along Doolittle Drive. Therefore. the
proposed project is not anticipated to impair implementation of or physically interfere with an
adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan. No impact is antIcipated.

Discussion:
a./) The proposed project would disturb 2.2 acres and therefore would be subject to the National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) pennit requirements. The State of California
is authorized to administer various aspects of the NPDES. Construction activities covered under
e the State's General Construction pennit include removal of vegetation, grading, excavating, or
any other activity that causes the disturbance of one acre or more. The General Construction

systems. and to develop and implement a Stonn Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). The
purpose of a SWPPP is to: I) identify pollutant sources that may affect the quality of discharges
of stonnwater associated with construction activities; and 2) identify, construct and implement
stonnwater pollution control measures to reduce pollutants in stonnwater discharges from the
construction site during and after construction.
The RWQCB has issued an area-wide NPDES Stonn Water Pennit for the County of San
Bernardino, the San Bernardino County Flood Control District, and the incorporated cities of San
Bernardino County. The City of San Bernardino then requires implementation of measures for a
project to comply with the area-wide pennit requirements. A SWPPP is based on the principles
of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to control and abate pollutants. The SWPPP must include
(BMPs) to prevent project-related pollutants from impacting surface waters. These would
include, but are not limited to street sweeping of paved roads around the site during construction,
and the use of hay bales or sand bags to control erosion during the rainy season. BMPs may also
include or require:
· The contractor to avoid applying materials during periods of rainfall and protect freshly
applied materials from runoff until dry.
· All waste to be disposed of in accordance with local, state and federal regulations. The
contractor to contract with a local waste hauler or ensure that waste containers are emptied
weekly. Waste containers cannot be washed out on-site.
· All equipment and vehicles to be serviced off.site.
In addition to complying with NPDES requirements, the City of San Bernardino also requires the
preparation of a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) for development projects that fall
within one of eight project categories established by the RWQCB. Since the proposed project
includes the construction of a 34,833 square-foot structure on the same property as the existing
Salvation Anny Warehouse and tented Thrift Store, it is considered a significant re-development
project which is defined as the addition or creation of 5,000 or more square feet of impervious
surface on an already developed site. This includes, but is not limited to, additional buildings
and/or structures, extension of existing footprint of a building, construction of parking lots, etc.
In June 2007, the project proponent submitted a WQMP to the City for review and approval.
Design measures as listed below and contained in the WQMP will ensure potential impacts are
reduced to a less than signiticant impact.
W-I: :'tio \'ehicle \\ashing. fueling or maintenance shall be allowed on-site.
\\'-2: Landscaping shall correlate to the climate, soils, related natural resources and
existing \'egetation of the site, as well as l)'pe of development proposed.
W-3: Portions of existing parking areas to be resurfaced will continue to meet tbe
minimum widths necessary, provided that public safety and a pedestrian friendly
environment are not compromised.

\\1-4: Proposed architectural plans shall ensure all roofs will drain into the proposed
landscape areas. Roof runoff shall be maintained clean and free from trash and/or
debris at all times to ensure proper drainage of storm waters.
W-5: Impervious sidewalks shall drain away from the buildings and into the parking lot
drainage system.
W-6: Vegetated swales shall be constructed to carry water around the new building, and
shall be maintained on a bi-weekly basis by the landscape maintenance personnel
and will include mowing grass and weeding landscaped areas.
W-7: A SWPPP shall be prepared and BMP educational materials shall be provided to
rehabilitation residents. and all employees.
W-8: Trash storage areas shall be kept clean and free of debris.
W-9: Irrigation methods shall be utilized to minimize runoff of excess irrigation water
across impervious surfaces and into the storm water conveyance system. Such
methods shall include employing rain-triggered shutoff devices to eliminate or
reduce irrigation during and after precipitation. Water conservation devices such
as programmable irrigation timers and soils sensors shall also be installed.
b)
The proposed project would not deplete groundwater supplies nor would it interfere with
recharge since it is not within an area designated as a recharge basin or spreading ground. The
existing Salvation Army Warehouse and related facilities and the proposed 124-bed
Rehabilitation Residence would receive water supply directly from the City whose source of
supply is groundwater. No significant impact to groundwater resources is anticipated.
c-e)
The proposed 124-bed Rehabilitation Residence would occur on the same site as the Salvation
Army Warehouse which contains existing structures, paving, landscaping and drainage controls.
The proposed project would include additional paved building coverage on-site; however, the
project will not alter the course of any stream or river. All runoff would be conveyed to existing
storm drain facilities, which have been designed to handle the flows. The project design includes
landscaping of non-hardscape areas to prevent erosion. The Building Official and City Engineer
must approve a grading and drainage plan prior to the issuance of grading permits. Review and
approval of the drainage plan would ensure the project would not result in substantial erosion,
siltation. or flooding on- or off-site. ;-';0 impacts are anticipated
According to the City's General Plan. Figure Sol "lOa Year Flood Plain," the project site occurs

will demand aggregate resources during construction. Steel, wood, concrete, and asphalt will be
required as part of the construction. These resources are commercially available in the southern
California region without any constraint and no potential for adverse impacts to the natural
resources base supponing these materials is forecast to occur over the foreseeable future. The
project demand for mineral reSOurces is not significant due to the abundance of available local
aggregate resources.
c)
The project site occurs within Mineral Resource Zone MRZ-2 as adopted by the State Mining
and Geology Board and as identified in the City's General Plan, Figure NRC-3. The primary
goal of mineral resource classification is to identity regionally significant mineral deposits in an
effon to conserve and develop them for anticipated aggregate production needs of the region.
The MRZ-2 areas indicate the existence of construction aggregate deposits that meet certain
State criteria for value and marketability based solely on geologic factors. By statute, the Board
does not utilize existing land uses as a criterion in its classification of Mineral Resources Zones.
Based on the urbanized location of the site, its size, and accessibility by trucks, mining would not
be feasible and therefore the proposed project would not result in the loss or availability of a
known mineral resource that could be developed.

a) Exposure of persons to or generation of noise
levels in excess of standards established in the
City's General Plan or Development Code, or
applicable standards of other agencies?

Discussion:
a)
Noise can be measured in the form of a decibel (dB), which is a unit for describing the amplitude
of sound. The predominant rating scales for noise in the State of California are the Equivalent-
Continuous Sound Level (1eq), and the Community Noise Equivalent Level (CNEL), which are
both based on the A-weighted decibel (dBA). 1eq is defined as the total sound energy of time-
varying noise over a sample period. CNEL is defined as the time-varying noise over a 24-hour
period, with a weighting factor of 5 dBA applied to the hourly 1eq for noises occurring from
7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. (defined as relaxation hours) and 10 dBA applied to events occurring
between IO:UO p.m. and 7:00 a.m. defined as sleeping hours). The State of California's Office of
Noise Control has established standards and guidelines for acceptable community noise levels
based on the CNEL and L<ln rating scales. The purpose of these standards and guidelines is to
provide a framework for setting local standards for human exposure to noise. Residential
development, schools, churches, hospitals, and libraries have a normally acceptable community
noise exposure range of 60 dBA CNEL to 70 dBA CNEL. Industrial development,
manufacturing, and warehousing, have a normally acceptable community noise exposure range
of 70 dBA CNEL to 80 dBA CNEL. Office buildings, businesses and professional have a
normally acceptable community noise exposure range of67 dBA CNEL to 77 dBA CNEL.
NOise measurements conducted as part of the City's General Plan EIR indicate speclnc
measurements along Mill Street for the area between Tippecanoe and Waterman Avenue to be 60
dBA CNEL at a distance of 281 feet from the roadway centerline. The segment of Mill Street
from Waterman A venue to Lena Road and .beyond was not evaluated because noise levels along
this segment of Mill Street are not considered to be significant. The Rehabilitation Residence
would be constructed at a distance of 800 feet north of the Mill Street centerline. Employees and
residents in the Rehabi Iitation Residence would not be exposed to noise levels in excess of State
and City established standards. Operation of the Salvation Army Warehouse will continue to
t..ke place "Iomlay through Friday from 7 a.m. to ~ p.m. and on Saturdays from 8 a.m. to noon;
and operal1on of the tc:med lhrili store will continue to take place Monday through Saturday from
10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Since existing operations at the site would not occur during nighttime hours,
impacts to future habitants of the Rehabilitation Residc:nce are considered less than significant.

tll Construction and post-construction activities of the proposed Rehabilitation Residence would not
require the use of equlpmcnt that would generate excessive ground borne vibration or ground-

COd) The proposed project is anticipated to generate short-term construction noise. The project is not
anticipated to expose people to noise levels or generate noise levels in excess of standards
established in the City's General Plan or Development Code. There are no sensitive receptors
adjacent to the site that would be exposed to excessive project-related noise levels. Similarly, no
significant long-term project impacts are anticipated because the Rehabilitation Residence would
not generate excessive noise. No significant impacts from a permanent or temporary increase in
ambient noise levels are anticipated.
e) As shown in Figure LU-4 of the City's General Plan, the project site occurs within the San
Bernardino International Airport (SBIA) Influence Area. In accordance with policies listed in the
City's General Plan, Chapter 2 Land Use, new development is required to protect the airspace of
the SBlA and to minimize impacts on citizens and businesses. hnplementation of General Plan
policies listed in Section VII of this Initial Study, and review of site plans would ensure potential
impacts from aircraft noise are reduced to a less than significant level.

employees. According to the General Plan Draft EIR Table 5.11-2, in 1025 the City of San
Bernardino is projected to have a high level of jobs-to households, which reflects the fact that
San Bernardino is and will continue to be a center for employment. The City currently houses an
international airport (anticipated to come on line in the near future) and major educational
institutions, and is the home of significant government offices (County of San Bernardino,
County Court House, Caltrans, Federal, etc.) and regional transportation facilities (railroads,
airport, and freeways). There are numerous related businesses that locate within the City to be
near these uses. Build-out of the current General Plan accounts for these existing uses and
potential businesses. The proposed project is conditionally permitted within the Industrial Light
District and would be consistent with the General Plan, and therefore would not induce
substantial population growth in an area, either directly or indirectly. The project's growth is
anticipated in the City of San Bernardino General Plan. No adverse impact is anticipated.
b) The proposed project would not displace any existing housing units, because no housing units
would be demolished as a result of the proposed project.

Discussion:
a) Fire Protection: The City of San Bernardino Fire Department provides fire protection and
<:mergency m~dical services to the project site and vicinity. The Fire Department provides
emergency medical care (with emergency medical team personnel and paramedics), "HazMat"
(hazardous materials) teams and resources, and aircraft rescue and fire fighting services. The Fire
Department also conducts fire safety inspections of businesses, and educates the public about
safety measures through school and disaster preparedness programs.
The City of San Bernardino has a mutual aid agreement with the County of San Bernardino and
the California Department of Forestry for local fire protection. The State currently is providing
funding and operational assistance via the State Chaparral Management and Forest Stewardship
Programs to reduce hazardous fuel accumulations, improve important wildlife habitat, and
enhance watershed value.
The City of San Bernardino Fire Department has 12 fire stations within the city limits. The
nearest station to the project site is Fire Station No. 230, located at 502 South Arrowhead
Avenue, approximately one mile west of the project site. The current total number of personnel
available to respond to emergencies, including two battalion Chief Officers, is 51 divided among
the twelve stations. Response time for a unit varies and depends on the location of the response
site; however, the City's adopted response time standard is five minutes or less for 90 percent of
the emergency calls for service.
The City Council has approved a plan to relocate four of the existing fire stations within the City
Limits so that fire responses by units can achieve the adopted level of five minutes or less. Since
the nearest fire station is located approximately one mile from the project site, and since the
project is an addition to a site that is currently developed, implementation of the proposed project
would not have a significant impact on fire service response times. Developer impact fees are
collected at the time of building permit issuance and therefore, impacts are considered less than
significant.
Police Protection: The City of San Bernardino Police Department provides law enforcement
services for businesses and residences within the city limits. The City of San Bernardino is
divided into five Districts. The project site is located in the Southern District. The police
substation nearest the project site is located at 204 Inland Center Mall. All emergency calls and
requests for service from the project site would be dispatched from the main police station at 710
:\orth D Street. As crime and calls for service change over time, the District's boundaries and
stafting assignments are evaluated to maintain a balance of service across the City. Staffing for
the department is not based on a particular ratio of "officers per thousand" but is determined to
provide the ability to conduct proactive community-oriented policing and problem solving.
The proposed 124-bed Rchabilitation Residence to be located adjacent to and on the same
property as the existing Salvation Army Warehouse and related facilities would generate
approximately ten new jobs. The City of San Bernardino Police Department reviews staffing

needs on a yearly basis and adjusts serviee levels as needed to maintain an adequate level of
public protection. Similarly, developer impact fees are collected at the time of building permit
issuance to offset project impacts. Therefore, impacts to law enforcement are anticipated to be
l.:ss than significant.
Schools: The project site is located within the boundary of the San Bernardino City Unified
School District. The propos.:d I 24-bed Rehabilitation Residence, to be located adjacent to and on
the same prop':l1y as the existing Salvation ArnlY Warehouse and related facilities, would
generate approximately ten new jobs. The City mitigates impacts on school services through the
collection of development fees. Under Section 65995 of the California Government Code, school
districts may charge development fees to help finance local school services. However, the code
prohibits State or local agencies from imposing school impact fees, dedications, or other
requirements in excess of the maximum allowable fee, which is currently $1.93 per square foot
of new residential development and SO.31 per square foot of new commercial development:
Construction and operation of new school facilities would be funded through school impact fees
assessed on new developments that occur within the school district. No significant impacts are
anticipated.
e
Parks: There are a total of 52 developed parks and recreational facilities in the City,
encompassing approximately 540 acres. Based on the adopted park standard of five acres per
1,000 residents, build-out of the City would result in a need for approximately 1,596 acres of
parkland. The General Plan Update designates 469 acres of public parks. Therefore, future build-
out would result in a shortfall of 1,127 acres. However, the projected shortfall is lessened
somewhat because parkland total areas do not include the three regional parks, which total
158 acres. Additionally, many school sites, community centers and senior centers throughout the
City are available for recreational activities. Furthermore, the City designates approximately
620 acres of undeveloped open space parkland and 664 acres of public and commercial
recreation, which includes private recreational facilities, and an additional 1,312 acres of
undeveloped open space and parkland and 57acres of public and commercial recreation in the
Sphere of Influence areas. Implementation of policies listed in the Parks and Recreation Element
of the General Plan Update, and collection of developer impact fees would ensure impacts to
parks are less than significant.
Government Services: The proposed development would not require the use of governmental
services beyond the approval and permitting process. The proposed project is consistent with the
General Plan. Therefore, no impact is anticipated.
e
Solid Waste: The proposed project will be served by the City of San Bernardino Refuse &
Recycling Division, which provides collection services to residential and commercial customers
for refuse, recyclables, and greenwaste. Materials that are not recycled in compliance with the
Intergrated \Vaste Management Act (AB 939) are tuken to one of two regional landfills in the
valley (San Timoteo: permincd until 2026 or Mid.\'<Il1ey: permitted until 2033).
According to the Calilomia Integrated Waste MUl1agement Board's estimated solid waste
generation rates. the proposed project is expected to generate approximately 620 pounds per day

Rehabilitation Residence would not gcnerate a significant amount of additional solid waste into
the City's II aste stream. Refuse would be disposed of at the San Timoteo and Mid-Valley
sanitary landfills, which are permitted to receive 1,000 tons per day and 7,500 tons per day,
respectively. The estimated project-generated waste represents approximately 0.03 percent and
0.0041 percent of the total pemlilled waste received at the landfill facilities, respectively. The
solid waste collection system would not be affected by the development of the project site.
Maintenance of Public Facilities: Construction and operation of the 124-bed Rehabilitation
Residence would not significantly increase traffic on adjacent streets (see Section XV
TransportatiowTraffic). The proposed project would not require additional road maintenance by
the City. No significant impacts are anticipated.

a-b) The project trip generation was based upon rates obtained from the Institute of Transportation
Engineers (lTE), Trip Generation, 7"h Edition. Although a "Rehabilitation Facility" was not
listed as a land use within the lIE manual, a similar use "Assisted Living Residence," shared .
similar land use intensities (i.e., on-site dining facilities, limited medical staffing, on-site
recreation and limited travel). Placing the project within the land use category of "Hospital"
generated a total of 612 vehicle trips. Since the proposed facility would require only ten
employees and since some on-site residences would only be permitted to leave the premises to
attend work, total vehicle trips are not expected to be similar to a hospital. Note: to ensure the
maximum amount of emissions generated by the proposed project was analyzed, the land use
intensity of "Hospital" and its corresponding trip generation rate were used to evaluate air quality
emissions as presented in Section III of this Initial Study. Under the "Assisted Living
Residence," the proposed development would generate a total of approximately 340 daily vehicle
trips; a result assumed to be most similar to the proposed project's intensity.
The City of San Bernardino General Plan and Circulation Element were adopted in accordance
with CEQA requirements, and any roadway improvements within the City of San Bernardino
that are consistent with these documents are not considered a significant impact, so long as the
project contributes its "fair share" funding for improvements. Potential impacts from an increase
in traffic are considered less than significant.

a,b,e) The proposed project will be served by the City of San Bernardino sewer system, which has
waste treated by the San Bernardino Water Reclamation Plant (SBWRP). The proposed project
would generate wastewater that can be discharged to a municipal system with sufficient capacity.
The SBWRP is a regional plant that serves a larger population than just the City of San
Bernardino (Loma Linda, Highland and San Bernardino International Airport). The existing flow
to the SBWRP of 28 MGD could be expected to increase cumulatively by 20.2 MGD for a total
General Plan buildout flow of 48.2 MGD. This amount would exceed the existing design
capacity of 33 MGD by 15.2 MGD. Additional facilities would need to be built or expansion of
existing facilities would need to be completed to accommodate the proposed build-out in the
service area of the SBWRP.
The wastewater collection system is currently expcriencing deficiencies and the Wastewater
Collection System Master Plan repol1 of 2002 predicted an increase in system pipe capacity
deficiencies of 57,022 out of 750.718 linear feet of pipe by the year 2025. That repol1 was not
based on the build-out projcctions presented in the G.:neral Plan EIR.

Based on average annual domestic water requirements per person per day as evaluated in the
City's General Plan Update EIR, the project is projectcd to generate 30,690 gallons per day (gpd)
of wastewater flow (based on 75 percent of water use to sewer). These flows would be
accommodated with existing capacities of both the sewer system and the SBWRP. The project is
consistent with the General Plan and would be required to meet the requisites of the City of San

quality. Impacts are considered less than significant.
c) Storm drains and flood control facilities within the planning area include natural and man-made
channels, storm drains, street waterways, natural drainage courses, dams, basins, and levees.
Storm drain and flood control facilities are administered by the City of San Bernardino, San
Bernardino County Flood Control District, ACOE, and the San Bernardino International Airport
and Trade Center. Design and construction of storm drain and flood control facilities are the
responsibility of the City Public Works Department. The proposed project would not require the
construction of new storm water facilities. As discussed with the City, stormwater would be
controlled by existing and proposed on-site facilities (see Section VIII of this Initial Study for a
detailed discussion of the existing and proposed on-site storm water system). Details of the
system would be reviewed and approved by the Public Works staff. No impacts are anticipated.

The San Bernardino Municipal Water Department (SBMWD) provides domestic water service in
the City. The SBMWD serves an area of approximately 43 square miles with 35,246 service
connections. The Department produces water from groundwater wells that equates to over 497
gallons per capita per day, with the average metered consumption of 330 gallons per capita per
day. Currently, the SBMWD available groundwater supply is approximately 49,460 acre-feet per
year or 16.1 billion gallons per year.
The San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District (SBVMWD) was formed in 1954 to plan
long-range water supply for the San Bernardino Valley. It imports water into its service area
through participation in the California State Water Project and manages groundwater storage
within its boundaries. SBVMWD covers about 325 square miles and includes the cities and
communities of San Bernardino, and other cities within the region.
Based on final calibrated field flow measurements of 330 gallons of water per person per day as
evaluated in the City's General Plan EIR, the Rehabilitation Residence is projected to have a
water demand of approximately 40,920 gallons per day. The project's water supply requirements
will be assessed during project review and approval. The applicant will be required to pay fees
for service to the SBMWD. A less than significant impact is anticipated.
The proposed project will be served by the City of San Bernardino Refuse & Recycling Division.

anticipated. However, if any sensitive historic or pre-historic artifacts are uncovered during any
excavation and construction activities, a qualified archaeologist should be contacted for
evaluation of the deposits. The City's standard condition of approval would relieve any
potentially significant impacts to cultural resources.
b) Impacts associated with the proposed project would not be considered adverse or unfavorable.
The project is not anticipated to generate significant amounts of air pollutants. The addition of
landscaping and lighting of the proposed development would be required to comply with the
regulations set forth in the City's Development Code. No significant cumulative adverse impacts
are expected with implementation of the proposed development, as the proposed Rehabilitation
Residence would occur on the same property as the existing Salvation Army Warehouse and
related facilities.
C)
Proposed development at the site would not cause substantial long-term adverse effects on
human beings, either directly or indirectly.
During construction, exhaust emissions from construction vehicles and equipment and fugitive
dust generated by equipment traveling over exposed surfaces, would increase NOx and PMIO
levels in the area. Although the proposed project does not exceed SCAQMD thresholds during
construction. the applicant will be required to implement the SCAQMD conditions as listed in
Section III of this Initial Study. Additionally, the project shall comply with, Rules 402 nuisance,
and 403, fugitive dust, which require the implementation of Best Available Control Measures
(BACM) for each fugitive dust source, and the Air Quality Management Plan (AMCP), which
identifies Best Available Control Technologies (BACT) for area sources and point sources,
respectively.
The proposed project includes the construction and operation of a 124-bed Rehabilitation
Residence to be located on the same property as the existing Salvation Army Warehouse and
related facilities. Construction activities would not create a significant hazard to the public or the
environment through the routine transport. use, or disposal of hazardous materials. because
construction of the facilities would not involve such activities, Similarly post-construction
activities Including a work therapy program 10 include restoration and repair of donated materials
for resale in the on-site thriti store, psychological and medical services, class rooms. Chapel, and
the practical application of sound business principles would not involve the routine transport or
use of hazardous materials.

MITIGATION MONITORINGfREPORTlNG PLAN
Development Code Amendment NO. 07-01
& Conditional Use Permit No. 07-03
This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan has been prepared to implement the mitigation
measures outlined in the Initial Study for Development Code Amendment No. 07-01 &
Conditional Use Permit No. 07-03. This plan has been prepared in compliance with the
Califomia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State and City of San Bernardino CEQA
Guidelines.
CEQA Section 21081.6 requires adoption of a monitoring andlor reporting plan 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 plan shall be designed to ensure
compliance during project implementation.
The Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Plan contain the following elements:
1.
The mitigation measures are recorded with the action and procedure necessary to
ensure compliance. The plan lists the mitigation measures contained within the
Initial Study.
A procedure for compliance and verification has been outlined for each
mandatory mitigation action. This procedure designates who will take action,
what action wiII be taken and when, and to whom and when'compliance will be
reported.
The plan contains a separate Mitigation Monitoring and Compliance Record for
each action. On each of these record sheets, the pertinent actions and dates wiII be
logged, and copies of permits, correspondence or other data relevant wiII be
retained by the City of San Bernardino.
The plan is designed to. be flexible. As monitoring progresses, changes to
compliance procedures may be necessary based upon recommendations by those
responsible for the plan. If changes are made, new monitoring compliance
procedures and records wiII be developed and incorporated into the plan.

To further reduce impacts from VOC emiSSions, the applicant will be required to
implement the following conditions as required by SCAQMD:
1. The contractor shall utilize (as much as possible) pre-coated building materials
and coating transfer or spray equipment with high transfer efficiency, such as high
volume, low pressure (HVLP) spray method, or manual coating applications such
as paint brush, hand roller, trowel, dauber, rag, or sponge.
2. The contractor shall utilize water-based or low VOC coating as well as the
following conditions as required by SCAQMD:
e
. Use Super-Compliant VOC paints whenever possible.
. If feasible, avoid painting during peak smog season: July, August, and
September.
. Recycle leftover paint. Take any leftover paint to a household hazardous
waste center; do not mix leftover water-based and oil-based paints.
. Keep lids closed on all paint containers when not in use to prevent VOC
emissions and excessive odors.
. For water-based paints, clean up with water only. Whenever possible, do not
rinse the clean-up water down the drain or pour it directly into the ground or
the storm drain. Set aside the can of clean-up water and take it to a hazardous
waste center (www.cleanup.org).
. Recycle the empty paint can.
. Look for non-solvent containing stripping products.
. Use Compliant Low-VOC cleaning solvents to clean paint application
equipment.
. Keep all paint and solvent laden rags in sealed containers to prevent VOC
emISSIOns.
