1 . REOUEST
The applicant requests approval under authority of the
San Bernardino Municipal Code Section 18.28.010 to
subdivide two parcels totaling 10 acres into nine
parcels of unequal size the applicant also requests a
change of zone under authority of San Bernardino
Municipal Code 19.06.060 from M-2, General Industrial to
C-M, Commercial Manufacturing.
2. LOCATIO.!!
The subject site is located on the south side of Rialto
Avenue between Arrowhead and Sierra Way.
3. ,roNICIPAL COPE AND. .GEN~.~J;..J>.I,~~. ~.QlifORMANCE
Approval of the proposed Change of Zone and Parcel Map
is consistent with the Municipal Code as illustrated in
Attachment "An and the Interim Policy Document.
4. CEOA STATUS
An Initial Study was prepared by staff and presented to
the Environmental Review Committee on May 19, 1988.
After revisions, the Committee on May 26, 1988,
recommended a Negative Declaration be adopted. The
Initial Study was advertised and made available for
public review and comment until June 16, 1988. No
comments were received. See Attachment "En - Initial
Study.
5 . a~ROUND
The Hanford foundry was constructed at this location in
the late 1890's. The foundry operated at the site for
approximately 90 years. The property was recently
cleared, except for one building which will be retained
for future use. A large Magnolia Tree on the site
marked the site of a stage coach stop. The tree has
been preserved and is to be moved to Seccombe Lake in
the fall.

6. ANALYS~
In considering a parcel map application, the size of the
lots being created and the effect of access to the lots
on the traffic in the area must be evaluated. For a
change of zone application, land use compatibility and
the possible increase in traffic must be reviewed.
a. Lot Size
The Municipal Code requires that the. lots created
by the parcel map meet the standard for the zone.
Neither the current zoning, M-2, General Industrial
nor the proposed zoning, CoM, Commercial
Manufacturing, require a minimum lot size. The
lots proposed are of buildable size. The parcels,
their acreage and street frontage are listed below:
Parcel No.1:
Acreage: .75
Street Frontage: 202 feet on Rialto and 162 Feet
on Arrowhead.
Parcel No.2:
Acreage: .75
Street Frontage: 162 feet on Arrowhead and 202
feet on Hilda.
Parcel No.3:
Acreage: 1. 44
Street Frontage: 193 feet on Rialto.
Parcel No.4:
AcreAge: 1.44
Street Frontage: 193 feet on Rialto.
Parcel No.5:
Acreage: 1.44
Street Frontage: 193 feet on Rialto
Parcel No.6:
Acreage: 1.52
Street Frontaye: 193 feet on Rialto.

Parcel No.7:
Acreage: 1.51
Street Frontage: 163 Feet on Rialto.
Parcel No.8:
Acreage: .49
Street Frontage: 146 feet on Rialto and 145 feet
on Sierra Way.
Parcel No.9:
Acreage: 1.19
Street Frontage: 419 feet on Sierra Way
b. Traffic Considerations
The change of zone from heavy manufacturing to
commercial manufacturing could increase the traffic
in the area. The number of parcels created with
frontage on Rialto could create congestion due to
the increase in the number of possible access
points. The City Engineering Department reviewed
the application and evaluated its potentia]
Impacts. As a result of their review a requireme~t
that each two parcels share access is included.
Reciprocal access rights are to be recorded on the
map. The applicant shall provide a detailed signal
assessment for the intersection of Rialto and
Sierra Way prior to recordation of the final map.
The Engineering Department's Standard Conditions
are included in Attachment "Dn.
c. Land Use Compatibility
The site is in an area of mixed land use a few
blocks south of the downtown area. This site is
just north of the City Yards which is an industria]
use. The City Yard and the proposed site c.ll'
separated by a railroad. Adjacent and to the north
of the site is the Meadowbrook Housing Project.
Commercial uses are located to both the east and
west.

Two departments submitted comments on the applications.
Development Services commented that the less
industrially intense use would be beneficial to the
City. The Engineering Department submitted their
Standard Conditions which are attached.
8. CONCLU~:J;QJIl
The parcels are of buildable size and have adequate
street frontage. With the proposed mitigation measures,
the Engineering Department has deemed the streets
adequate to handle any additional traffic created by the
number of parcels or change of zone. The change of zone
will allow compatible land uses in the area.

It is recommended that the Planning Commission:
1. Recommend approval of the Negative Declaration; and
2. Recommend approval of Change of Zone No. 88-3; and

3.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
3.1 Location
The proposal is located in the Meadowbrook-Central
City Redevelopment Area on the south side of Rialto
Avenue between Arrowhead and Sierra Way. The ten
(10) acre site is bounded on the south by railroad
tracts.
3.2
3.2.1
Site and Project Characteristics
Existing conditions
The southwest corner of the ten acre area was the
site of a foundry which has recently been
dismantled. There is a Magnolia tree on the site
which is reputed to be 100 years old. Near the
northeast corner of the site is a concrete block
building remains. This building appears to be in
the setback. The property fenced at present by
both concrete block walls and chain link. The
topography is flat with a four foot drop from
northeast to southwest.
3.2.2
Project Characteristics
The proposal is to subdivide the ten acres as
follows:

4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
4.1 Environmental Setting
4.2 Environmental Effects
The environmental checklist identifies six areas of
potential concern. Each item checked -Maybe. or
.Yes- on the checklist is identified below and
followed by a recommended mitigation measure.
l.g. Will the proposal result in development within
an area subject to landslides, mudslides,
liquefaction or other similar hazards?
The site is within an area subject
liquefaction. A liquefaction study will
required, at the time of development, so
specific recommendations can be made for
exact location and particular building.
4.a. Could the proposal result in a change in the
number of any unique, rare or endangered
species of plants or their habitat including
stands of trees?

The large Magnolia located on Parcel No. 2 was
saved and will be moved to a more suitable
site within the City.
6.a. Will the proposal result in a change in the
land use as designated on the General Plan?
Approval of the Change of Zone and Parcel Map
is consistent with the letters dated June 1,
1987, July 3, 1987, August 18, 1987, January
14, 1988, February 5, 1988 and March 17, 1988,
from the State Office of Planning and Research
to the City of San Bernardino which stipulate
that ....land uses proposed during the period
of the updated general plan provisions.....,
and with the City of San Bernardino Housing
and Scenic Highways Elements.

been operational since the late 1880's. The
San Bernardino County Environmental Health
Services stated that it is possible that the
site was contaminated. Several borings have
been done on the site which revealed low
levels of toxic elements. A permit has been
issued for the removal of underground storage
tanks on the site. The county Environmental
Health Services inspector will monitor the
removal and will require further testing if
needed at that time.
9.a.
Could the proposal result
traffic that is greater
designated on the General
in an increase in
than the land use
Plan?
Both the Change of Zone and the Parcel Map
could effect the traffic in the area. The
Change of Zone would permit uses which would
require many more trips on the existing
streets. The applicant was requested to
submit traffic generation information. That
data, Attachment A-I, compares the existing
traffic count to the probable traffic
generation of the proposed zone change.
The City Traffic Engineer, Mr. Anwar Wagdy,
reviewed the data and has submitted a
memorandum stating that the proposed change of
zone will not overburden the existing streets
beyond the capacity for which they were
designed. Further, the Engineering Department
will condition the Parcel Map as follows: (a)
Developer shall submit a detailed signal
assessment addressing developer's partici-
pation in any mitigative improvements
identified by the report analysis, scope,
content and recommendation of the traffic
report must meet the satisfaction of the City
Traffic Engineerl (b) The proposed Parcel Map
shall reduce the number of driveways along
Rialto Avenue, by creating a shared driveway
access between each two adjacent parcels. This
is necessary to improve roadway flow, capacity
and driver's safety.
9.b. Could the proposal result in an increase in
the demand for new parking facilities.

The change of zone could increase the need for
on-site parking as the ratio is lower for
commercial than it is for industrial uses.
Parking requirements will be determined at the
time of development and required on-site as
per the San Bernardino Municipal Code.
