CITY OF SAN BERNOIDINO - REQUEST F01 COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT Subject: Amendment to the Interim Policy Document No. 88-1 Mayor and Council Meeting of January 17, 1989 REOUEST The applicants request a change of the land use designation of the Interim Policy Document from RL Residential-Low (1-3 du/net acre) to RS Residential-Suburban (3.1-4.5 du/net acre) on the undeveloped Phase II section of Tract No. 12872. The site consists of 9.6 acres and is located on the north side of the proposed extension of Morgan Road, west of Little Mountain Drive. The total combined area of Phase I and Phase II of Tract No. 12872 is 38.9 acres. The change is being requested to permit the recordation of the 9.6 acre Phase II section with 42, R-1-7200 Single-Family Residential lots for future development. BACKGROUND In February, 1985 the Planning Commission approved Tentative Tract No. 12872 and a Negative Declaration for a 12 lot, single-family subdivision in the R-1-7200zone. On June 11, 1987 the State Office of Planning and Research imposed a moratorium on single-family development north of the Saldecke-Sky line. On February 5, 1988 the moratorium restrictions were relaxed to allow single-family subdivisions north of that line with minimum lot sizes of 10,800 square feet. In an effort to meet the 10,800 minimum lot size requirement, the applicant submitted a revised tract map that split the subdivis~on into two phases: Phase I, containing 57 lots with R-1-10,800 lot sizes and Phase II, containing 42 lots with R-1-7200 lot sizes. On May 3, 1988 the Planning Commis- sion unanimously approved Phase I based on previous environ- mental clearance, Findings of Fact, and Conditions and Standard Requirements. The Planning commission's approval was appealed on May 9, 1988 by Barbara Sky and by Joy Kolstad on May 11, 1988. On June 10, 1988 the Mayor and Council denied the appeals and approved Phase I of Tentative Tract No. 12872 (Revised), subject to Findings of Fact and Conditions, and adopted a Negative Declaration. Phase I was later recorded with R-1-10,800 lots and is currently under construction. CEOA STATUS On January 17, 1985, Tract No. 12872 received a recommended Negative Declaration during the regularly scheduled meeting 75-0264 ".... Amendment to Inte~ Policy Document No. 88-1- Mayor and council Meeting of January 17, 1988 Page 3 of the Environmental Review Committee and it was determined that the tract would not have any detrimental effect on the environment. Based on this, the Initial Study for Amendment to the Interim Policy Document No. 88-1 was focused only on the potential impacts of the requested change in the site's land use designation (see Attachment A). ANALYSIS General Vicinity The surrounding land uses include single-family residences on 7,200 square foot lots to the north and to the southwest of the 9.6 acre Phase II subject area. The 29.3 acre Phase I section of Tract No. 12872 is currently under construction and has R-1-l0,800 square foot residential lots. The property directly to the west is a park. Land Use Under the current RL Residential-Low Interim Policy Document designation, the subject 9.6 acre Phase II site could have a maximum of 28 R-l-10,800 lots (3 dujacre). Under the pro- posed RS Residential Suburban designation, 42 R-1-7200 lots could be created. This would represent a 14 lot increase. PROPOSED LAND USE ALTERNATIVES A review of the various land use alternative maps considered by the Mayor and Common Council shows that the subject site was designated RL Residential-Low. The minutes indicate that the RL Residential-Low designation was never discussed as being appropriate or inappropriate for the site. CONCLUSION The development of Residential uses could the site is contiguous and to the southwest. could occur with the proposed 14 additional the site with R-1-7200 Single-Family be considered to be appropriate since to existing R-1-7200 lots to the north No significant environmental impacts recordation and construction of the residential lots.

Planning Department 300 North "0" Street San Bernardino, California 92418 - - o :J CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO PLANNING DEPARTMENT INITIAL STUDY Amendment to the Interim policv Document No. 88-1 A request to change the Interim Policy Document Land Use Designation on the Phase II section of Tract No. 12872 from RL, Residential Low (1-3 du/net ac.) to RS, Residential .Suburban (3.1 - 4.5 du./net ac.). The site consists of 9.6 acres and is located on the north side of the proposed extension of Morgan Road west of Little Mountain Drive. The total combined area of Phase I and Phase II is 38.9 acres. Phase I is recorded and is under construction with 57, R-1- 10,800 Single-Family Residential lots as required under the Interim Policy Document, RL, Residential Low land Use Designation. The change is being requested to permit the recordation of 42, R-1-7200 lots and ,to subsequently develop the lots with single family homes. The site is not located within an Alquist-Priolo Special Study zone nor is it located within an area subject to liquefaction. A geologic report was included with the 1985 application for Tract No. 12872 (formally Tract No. 12206). Soils were reviewed to determine slope stability for grading purposes. The tract received a Negative Declaration during the January 17, 1985 meeting of the Environmental Review committee which determined that the project would have no detrimental effect on the environment. Because the tract received environmental review, this Initial Study will focus on potential impacts of the requested Land Use Designation change. \. - - - - - - - r r, ENVIRONMENT AL EV ALUA TION AND MITIGATION MEASURES /~... 2.c. Air Resources The site is located in a high wind hazard area. There would be no specific impact relating to the proposed Land Use Designation Change; however, mitigations are automatically required by Ordinance through the Building and Safety Department's plan check process to limit potential impacts to a level of insignificance and to ensure compliance of building design prior to issuance of building permits. 3.a. Water Resources There may be a change in absorption rates and amount of surface water runoff because fourteen more houses could be developed under the proposed RS designation. It was determined by the Engineering Department that the addition of fourteen houses would not create substantial increase in surface water runoff in that there is adequate capacity to carry the runoff in the streets to the storm drains. No mitigation is required. 6.a Land Use Under the current RL, Residential Low, Interim Policy Document designation, the subject 9.6 acre Phase II site could have a maximum of 28 lots (3 du/ac. The submitted plans show that under the proposed RS, Residential Suburban designation, 42 lots could be created. This represents a 14 lot increase. In review of the various Alternative Land Use Maps developed for consideration, each designated the site for RL, Residential Low. The minutes indicate that the RL designation of the site was never discussed as appropriate or inappropriate. The surrounding land uses include single family residences on 7,200 square foot lots to the north and to the southwest of the 9.6 acre Phase II subject area. As noted previously, the 29.3 acre Phase I portion of the tract to the southeast and currently under construction, has R-l-10,800 Single Family Residential lots. The property directly to the west is a park. The development of the site with R-1-7200 Single Family Residential uses would be appropriate since the site is adjacent to existing 7,200 square foot single family lots to the north and to the southwest. Development of the site with residential uses is consistent with the intent and purpose of the Interim Policy Document. J - - - - - , o o ENVIRONMENT AL EV ALUA TION AND MITIGATION MEASLflES 9. TransDortation/Circu1ation The Engineering Department has reviewed the request and has determined the 14 additional single family homes would generate 140 additional trip ends, for the tract each dav. The additional ~raffic is insignificant and will not impact the capacities of either existing or proposed streets within the area. The local streets in the area are designed to carry approximately 3,000 to 4,000 trips per day. The additional 14 trips during ~ hours. MW:cms misc.isipd881 12/15/88 .
