DISPOSITION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN THE AGENCY AND
CENTURY CROWELL COMMUNITIES, LP (AGENCY PROPERTY FORMERLY KNOWN AS
THE "BICE" PROPERTY IN THE VERDEMONT AREA)
BACKGROUND:
On May 18, 2004, Century Crowell Communities, L.P. (the "Developer"), presented a proposal to the
Redevelopment Committee (the "Committee") to purchase and develop 100 acres of property owned by the
Agency in the Verdemont Area commonly known as the "Bice Property" (the "Property"). This particular
property is located north of Little League Drive and is adjacent to the east side of the 1-215 Freeway.
On May 18, 2004, the Committee considered and approved the Memorandum of Understanding ("2004
MOU"), prepared by Staff and Agency Special Counsel in collaboration with the Developer and its Counsel.
Subsequently, the Community Development Commission of the City of San Bernardino (the "Commission")
accepted and approved the Committee's recommendation and authorized the Executive Director of the Agency
to execute the 2004 MOU for an undefined period of time, subject to termination by either party, during which
time the Agency and the Developer were to reach an agreement as to the form and scope of development of
the Property into a quality residential neighborhood. Execution of the 2004 MOU was intended to lead to the
successful approval and execution of a Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) by and between the
Agency and the Developer formalizing the disposition of the Property. The 2004 MOU was set to expire on
December 31, 2005, based upon a letter agreement entered into by the former Executive Director and the
Developer.
On December 19, 2005, because of the extremely complex nature of the development restraints imposed upon
the Property and its history of failed development attempts, as well as the examination of numerous
alternatives in the arrangement, size and aspect of the homes, the need for open public space, the alignment
and funding of the streets and environmental issues, the Commission voted to extend the 2004 MOU by six (6)
rnonths until June 30, 2006, provided that a draft DDA was presented by the Developer to the Agency no later
than March 31, 2006. The Developer submitted the draft DDA to Staff and Agency Special Counsel within
the required time frame and the parties have reached an agreement as to the following specific terms of the
sale of the Property by the Agency to the Developer. The salient points of the 2004 MOU are outlined in the
footnote below. (I)
(I)
(1) The Developer will purchase approximately 100 acres of the Agency-owned Property located on Frontage Road and
Little League Drive for $5,250,000 or the appraised fair market value. Prior to the execution of the DDA, the Agency
shall retain, at its sole cost, the services of an independent MAl Appraiser to verify that the Purchase Price for the
Property is not less than fair market value.
(2) The Property to be sold to the Developer for the purpose of constructing approximately 244 housing units at a minimum
lot size of 10,800 square feet, together with all on- and off-site improvements.
(3) The Property will be sold to the Developer "AS-IS", subject to all faults and conditions; and the Developer will be solely
responsible for satisfying itself that the Property is suitable for the development of a residential single-family housing
project.
(4) In addition to the Purchase Price, the Developer will pay the Agency a supplementary amount equal to 20% of the profits
("Profit Participation") from the development of the Property, as per Section III. 4. of the 2004 MOD.
(5) The Developer will pay to the Agency, in addition to the Purchase Price and the Profit Participation for the Property,
$10,000 per housing unit fee ("In-Lieu School Fee") for development of 245 units on the Property (this equates to
approximately 245 units x $ I 0,000 - $2,450,000 to be paid to the Agency). The Developer will be required to pay
directly to the School District all necessary school fees for those housing units in excess of the 245 units.

Economic Development Agency Staff Report
Century Crowell Communities, LP - Bice Property

CURRENT ISSUES:
Since the preparation of the draft DDA, discussion has ensued between Agency Staff and the Developer
regarding the Agency's desire to retain 20 to 30 acres ("Park Site") ofthe Property for the purpose of utilizing
or conveying a 20 to 30 acre Park Site to the City for development into a Community Park. Additional
acreage may need to be acquired by the Agency from the San Bernardino County Flood Control District. The
request for additional park land originated from the City Manager's office as there is very little land remaining
in the Verdemont Area to accommodate a Community Park. Moreover, discussions are presently underway
for exploring the possibility of selling the current Verdemont park land (Blast Soccer Fields and Guhin Park)
south of the Property to enlarge the proposed commercial development, Verdemont Heights Towne Center,
being proposed by Hopkins Development Company; therefore, this park and soccer fields would have to be
replaced by the Park Site.
In order to make the housing project cost effective and economical, and maximize the number of homes that
can be realized from the remainder of the Property, the Developer will need to request from the City, a
General Plan Amendment and to rezone the remaining Property, consisting of approximately 79 acres, from
RL to RS or a comparable zoning. The 20 to 30 acre Park Site will also need to be rezoned from RL to public
recreational purposes with the appropriate zoning designation.
The requested zone change will be consistent and compatible to the land contiguous and north of the Property,
which is currently zoned for 7,200 square foot lots.
Thus, it is proposed that the Property be sold to the Developer for the purpose of constructing approximately
279 housing units at a minimum lot size of 7,200 square feet, with an average lot size of 8,370 square feet,
together with all on-site and off-site improvements, a gated and secured community governed by a
Homeowner's Association with conditions, covenants and restrictions. A market analysis commissioned by
the Developer and completed by Market Profiles regarding the site states that a favorable market exists in the
Verdemont Area for 7,200 square foot lots with single-family detached homes.(2) The market analysis also
recommends, that the product type would range in size from 1,900 to 3,100 square feet. It should be noted that
the DDA describes a project that may encompass more acreage (approximately 82 acres) than the 79 acres to
be sold by the Agency to the Developer. The reason for this difference is because the Developer may need to
acquire additional acreage (approximately 3 acres) from the San Bernardino County Flood Control District
("Flood Control") in order to construct the detention basin and flood channel improvements. The site plan
also shows that in order to construct an approximately 30-acre Community Park, additional land would have to
be acquired by the Agency from the Flood Control (approximately 9 acres). However, ifit is determined that
the detention basin and improvements to the flood control channel do not prove to be feasible, then alternate
flood irnprovements would have to be identified and planned, and thus the additional acreage would not need
to be acquired by the Agency or Developer from the San Bernardino County Flood Control District.
(2) It should be noted that, a Settlement Agreement was entered into on October 11, 1989, between the City and a predecessor
owner of the Property, known at that time as A W Associates No.1. The Settlement Agreement only applied to Tentative Tract
12756, which now will become the Park Site under the new development proposal. The project, as originally contemplated by
A W Associates No.1, and its predecessor Cable Lake & Associates, dealt with the development of a 4,000 square feet lot
subdivision consisting of 114 lots at the southeastern portion of the Property adjacent to the pet cemetery. A W Associates
No.1, as the party to the Settlement Agreement, no longer is in existence as was recently confirmed with the attorney who
represented A W Associates No. I in the negotiation of the Settlement Agreement in 1989.

Accordingly, the salient Points of the DDA include, but are not limited to:
1. Sales price is a minimum of $4.1 million for the approximate 79 acres or fair market value which
ever is greater.
2. The Developer will pay the Agency a supplementary amount equal to 20% of the profits ("Profit
Participation") from the development of the Property, as per Section IlIA. of the MOU.
3. The Developer will pay to the Agency, in addition to the Purchase Price and the Profit Participation for
the Property, $10,000 per housing unit fee ("in-Lieu School Fee") for development of 245 units on the
Property (this equates to approximately 245 units x $10,000 = $2,450,000 to be paid to the Agency).
The Developer will be required to pay directly to the School District all necessary school fees for those
housing units in excess of the 245 units.
4. Escrow will close within 20 months after the conclusion of the due diligence period.
5. The Developer will be responsible for grading of the Property and the Park Site(2). Additionally, the
Developer will be responsible for the cost of preparing and installing all circulation improvements, as
required by the City Municipal Code and the Uniform Fire Code.
6. As a large portion, of the regional public improvements and infrastructure improvements will benefit
existing development and subsequent developments in the Verdemont Area, the Developer may need
to request that the City create a City Community Facilities District (CFD) to reimburse the Developer
for that portion of the public infrastructure. (See Exhibit "A" for further CFD Details).
Furthermore, the Developer will be responsible for the preparation of plans and undertaking the actual
development of any detention basin and flood control improvements, sewers, water, etc., and any and all
improvements that are required by the Development Services Department as part of the development review
process.
In addition to the funding to be provided through the CFD Bonds, the Developer will seek any reimbursements
from the City under a Reimbursement Agreement for certain costs of those regional or area benefit public
irnprovements that are in excess of the amounts required for development of the 279 homes through the CFD
special tax. Said reimbursements would be paid to the Developer via fees paid to the City as a result of future
development projects.
Hence, the Developer is requesting that the sale of the Property and the closing of the escrow is contingent
upon the following: 1) CFD formation; 2) City Reimbursement Agreement; 3) successful negotiations with the
County of San Bernardino Flood Control District to enable the excavation of the detention basin and
channelization, if necessary; and 4) that the Water Department has undertaken and completed the necessary
system upgrades and improvements to assure that an adequate water supply will be available to the Property as
of June 2007, pursuant to a "will-serve letter".
These four (4) items will be made conditions to any pre-closing on the Property for the Developer. If the
Developer is not successful in obtaining all of these items, it is highly likely the Developer will not proceed
with the purchase of the Property from the Agency.

The Developer has already paid to the Agency, a check in the amount of $25,000, which is non-refundable
under aU circumstances. This deposit is intended to compensate the Agency for removing the Property from
consideration by other prospective purchasers and to compensate the Agency for any expenses incurred during
the negotiation period of the 2004 MOU and the DDA. Upon the execution of the DDA by the parties, the
Developer will remit the sum of $50,000 as an initial deposit; and upon completion of the due diligence
period, the Developer will deposit an additional amount of $100,000 to the Agency, of which both deposits
will be applied to the Purchase Price for the Property upon the close of escrow.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The Initial Study (IS) (Attached) was prepared for the proposed Project and distributed for conunent to
affected agencies in accordance with CEQA, and said IS determined that although the proposed Project could
have a significant effect on the environment, there will not be significant effects because revisions have been
made to the project description to mitigate those irnpacts; thus, it is proposed that a Mitigated Negative
Declaration be prepared for the Project. The IS was circulated on May 9, 2006 and 7 conunents were received
of which 3 warranted response. The Environmental Consultant has prepared the Mitigation Monitoring and
Reporting Program (Monitoring Program) (Attached) which outlines the responsibilities and duties of the
Developer with regard to the monitoring and reporting of those measures or conditions imposed on the Project
to mitigate or avoid adverse effects on the environment in accordance with CEQA Section 21081.6. Because
the majority of the mitigation measures deal with air quality, geology/soils and traffic/circulation, the City's
Development Services Department will review, inspect and monitor the Developer's compliance with said
Monitoring Program.
FISCAL IMPACT:
As summarized under Background/Current Issue above.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Mayor and Common Council and the Conununity Development Commission adopt the attached
Resolutions.

EXHIBIT "A"
a) It is estimated that the total costs of development improvements, including all local and
regional infrastructure improvements, will be in excess of $100 million (the $100 million
includes an estimated $5 million in development impact fees to be paid to the City) with a
bonding limitation in a principal amount not to exceed $15 million, with a maximum
bond maturity not to exceed 30 years all as shall be finally determined by the City.
b) Community Facilities District (CFD) financings have undergone extensive legislative
revision to remedy the conditions that caused bond defaults more than a decade ago.
CFD financings presently work the way they were originally intended; that is, to support
development in regions where large infrastructure was necessary to expand public
facilities and provide safe conditions within the municipality.
c) The proposed CFD will assist in the financing of flood control improvements necessary
to protect lives and property and City infrastructure. Additionally, arterial roads and
regional water system improvements are to be partially financed through the CFD.
d) The maximum tax on each home when combined with the 1 % general property tax and
other applicable general property tax overrides and assessments will not exceed a total of
a 2% property tax for all general property taxes, assessments, ad valorem taxes for
general obligation bonds and the CFD special tax.
e) The CFD Bonds would only be issued for reimbursement purposes; that is, the Developer
will be required to utilize its own funds to install and construct those components of the
infrastructure for which the CFD Bond proceeds would be used to reimburse the
Developer after the City Engineer has accepted the work. All public bidding and
prevailing wage requirements will need to be met for the installation and construction of
this infrastructure for the costs of such to be eligible for CFD reimbursement.
f) All loan to value ratios for the value of the finished lots shall be determined based upon
values determined by an independent MAl appraiser whose appraisal is in compliance
with general California Debt and Investment Advisory Commission and the Uniform
Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice guidelines. Such loan to value ratios shall
be established based upon a date of value which is within a reasonable time (i.e., 90 days)
prior to the time the CFD Bonds are issued. Raw, undeveloped land would never be the
security for the CFD Bonds as was the situation in the defunct CFD No. 995.
g) The City and not the Developer will select the special tax consultant and the other
members of the CFD Bond financing team; this will assure the City and the public that
the City's best interests are served.

Bernardino Mountains occur to the north and east of the project site, within 0.25 to one mile. Due to its
relatively flat topography, and its occurrence at the relative low-point in the area, the development of the
site will have little impact on viewsheds or vistas in the area. The project's location immediately north
of the Interstate 215 right of way has the potential to negatively impact the viewsheds of homes within
the project site. However, the project perimeter will be screened from view of this right of way by a
perimeter wall, which will limit the potential visual impacts associated with the Interstate to less than
significant levels.
The parks and flood control improvements proposed will have negligible impacts on aesthetics, insofar
as the lack of structures in these areas of the site will limit the perceived change from the existing
natural condition.
There are no significant trees, rock outcroppings or structures on the project site.

Development of 279 lots will result in lighting from landscape lighting, street lights, homes and light
generated by vehicles. The project will be required to conform to the City's residential lighting
standards, which limit the amount of light which can be installed on single family homes. The proposed
park may include lighting. Should lighting be proposed, it will be reviewed for conformance with the
City's lighting standards. Further, the orientation of the park, at the southeast corner of the site and away
from the residential land uses, will limit the potential impacts associated with lighting at this location.
Impacts associated with light and glare are expected to be less than significant.

Discussion: The proposed DDA will not, in and of itself, have any impact on air quality. Development
of 279 single family homes, 30.5 acres of park land, and flood control improvements will result in both
construction and operational impacts associated with air quality.
The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan land use designation applied to the property.
Air quality management planning for the City and region have been developed based on the General
Plan land use maps for the City and those around it. The project does not propose any unusual or highly
polluting land uses. The project is therefore expected to be consistent with the air quality management
plans in place for the region.

Construction Impacts
The development of the site will include mass grading, which has the potential to generate two types of
emissions. First, those chemical emissions generated by the operation of heavy equipment, and second
those emissions of fugitive dust generated by ground disturbance. It is not known whether grading of the
site will result in a need for import or export of dirt to or from the site. Based on typical construction
projects in the area, an estimate of grading equipment required has been developed. Once project
grading plans have been completed, a more accurate representation of air quality impacts will be
developed.

Based on this analysis, the development of the project site would not exceed SCAQMD thresholds of
significance during the grading and site preparation process. Impacts are therefore expected to be less
than significant.
The project site can be subject to significant winds, which can transport dust, including particulate
matter of 10 microns or less (PMI0), The following Table illustrates the potential fugitive dust which
could be generated at the project site during mass grading operations.

Based on the Table above, the proposed project will exceed SCAQMD thresholds for dust generation.
Although these impacts will be of short duration (only during the grading of the site), a number of
mitigation methods are available. In order to assure that these impacts are reduced to less than
significant levels, mitigation is provided below.
Operational Impacts
The development of 279 single family homes has the potential to generate 2,670 average daily tripsl. In
addition to the homes, the park will also generate trifs, and therefore associated air emissions. The park
can be expected to generate 370 trips on a Saturday. Therefore, the total trips which could occur from
the project site would be 3,040 trips per day. Although the park emissions will be periodic, insofar as the
park will experience most of its activities on weekend days, this analysis assumes a worst case scenario,
and analyzes the total emissions of both uses. On this basis, the following Table illustrates the
anticipated daily emissions associated with project buildout.

Discussion: The proposed DDA will not, in and of itself, have any impact on biological resources. The
development of 279 homes, 30.5 acres of park land, or flood control improvements to be constructed on
the site, however, have the potential to impact biological resources. A biological survey was completed

for the project site, including the flood control property]. The survey included trapping studies for the
San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat in 2003, 2004 and 2005. Focused surveys were also conducted in 2005
for sensitive plants, and coastal California gnatcatcher.
The survey found that the site has been partially disturbed by dumping, off road vehicle use, and bee
keeping. The survey of the site included the identification of three plant communities: Riversidian
alluvial fan sage scrub, California annual grassland, and Riversidian sage scrub. Riversidian alluvial fan
sage scrub is considered a sensitive plant community, and the potential impacts associated with the
proposed project could be significant without the implementation of mitigation measures. The site,
including the Cable Creek portion of the project, contains 127.5 acres of such habitat.
A total of eight sensitive species have been observed on the site: San Diego horned lizard, loggerhead
shrike, San Bernardino kangaroo rat, Northwestern San Diego pocket mouse, San Diego desert woodrat,
Los Angeles pocket mouse, Black-tailedjackrabbit, and Parry's spineflower.
The 2005 focused surveys were negative for all surveyed species. The site is designated, however, as
critical habitat for both the San Bernardino kangaroo rat and the coastal California gnatcatcher.
Mitigation measures must be implemented to assure that potential impacts to these species are reduced
to less than significant levels.
The site was found to contain Los Angeles pocket mouse. Impacts to this species could be significant
without the implementation of mitigation measures.
Development of the site will include improvements to Cable Creek. The creek is likely to contain waters
of the US, and fall under the jurisdiction of both the US Army Corps of Engineers and the California
Department of Fish and Game. These agencies will require permitting, and appropriate mitigation of
impacts to species and communities of concern. Mitigation measures must be implemented to reduce
potential impacts to less than significant levels.
The project site is not within any area designated for wildlife corridors.
In order to assure that impacts to biological resources are reduced to less than significant levels, the
following mitigation measures shall be implemented:
I. Removal of trees and shrubs should occur on the site outside of the bird nesting season.
Should earth moving on the site involving the removal of trees and shrubs be proposed for
the period from February through August of each year, the project proponent shall cause a
nesting bird study to be prepared and submitted to the City Planner for review and approval.
The study shall be prepared by a qualified biologist, and shall include recommendations on
the avoidance of trees or shrubs where nests are present, if necessary. The study shall be
completed 30 days prior to the initiation of grading or tree and shrub removal on the site, and
approved prior to the issuance of grading permits.

2. The project proponent shall secure all necessary permits from the California Department of
Fish and Game, the Regional Water Quality Control Board, and the US Army Corps of

3. The project proponent shall mitigate impacts to Riversidian alluvial fan sage scrub habitat to
the satisfaction of the California Department of Fish and Game and the US Fish and Wildlife
Service. It is expected that up to 127.5 acres will need to be preserved off-site.
4. A Section 7 consultation shall be undertaken with the US Fish and Wildlife Service, in
conjunction with the preparation of US Army Corps 404 permitting, for San Bernardino
kangaroo rat and coastal California gnatcatcher, prior to the issuance of a grading permit.
5. An exclusion fence will be placed around the impact area for kangaroo rat as determined
necessary by a qualified biologist. Trapping will be conducted within this area within 30 days
of initiation of any ground disturbing activity in this impact area. Any captured animals will
be relocated outside the impact area, in a manner consistent with protocol established for the
species.
6. A qualified monitor shall be present during all ground disturbing activities of areas suitable
for habitat for the San Bernardino kangaroo rat. The monitor will be empowered to stop
building activities to avoid take of the species, and to assure compliance with the incidental
take authorization for the project.
7. Off site mitigation of San Bernardino kangaroo rat habitat shall be secured to the satisfaction
of the US Fish and Wildlife Service prior to the issuance of a grading permit.
8. Off site mitigation of coastal California gnatcatcher habitat shall be secured to the
satisfaction of the US Fish and Wildlife Service prior to the issuance of a grading permit.
9. Los Angeles pocket mouse shall be trapped concurrently with the kangaroo rat trapping
undertaken in mitigation measure 5, above. Any captured animals will be relocated outside
the impact area, in a manner consistent with protocol established for the species.
With the implementation of these mitigation measures, the potential impacts associated with biological
resources will be reduced to less than significant levels.

Discussion: The proposed DDA will not, in and of itself, have any impact on cultural resources. The
ultimate development of 279 homes, 30.5 acres of park land, or flood control improvements on the site,
however, will disturb lands with the potential for such resources. A cultural resource survey was
conducted for the proposed project4.
The survey included both records searches and field inspections of the project site. The records search
identified a number of previously identified resources in the vicinity of, but not on, the project site. The
on site survey conducted on the project site identified no culturally significant resources in the area to be
impacted by the proposed project. The proximity of other sites, however, led to a determination that
there is a moderate potential for cultural resources to be unearthed during earth moving activities on the
site. In order to assure that impacts to these resources are reduced to less than significant levels,
mitigation measures must be implemented.
The cultural resource study also included an analysis of the potential for paleontological resources on
the site. No on site analysis was conducted. The analysis of soil types concluded, however, that
Pleistocene fan deposits occur on the project site, and that these deposits have a high potential sensitivity

for paleontological resources. In order to assure that impacts to these resources are reduced to less than
significant levels, mitigation measures must be implemented.
The site is not in an area known to have buried human remains. State law requires that anyone
uncovering human remains report the find to law enforcement authorities. The project contractor will be
required to conform to these requirements. Law enforcement officials would, if necessary, determine the
need for Native American consultation, should remains be identified on the site during earth moving
activities.
In order to assure that potential impacts to cultural and paleontological resources are mitigated to less
than significant levels, the following mitigation measures shall be implemented.
I. A qualified archaeological monitor shall be on site during all excavation and trenching
activities on the project site, until such time as the monitor determines that the probability for
location of artifacts is low. The monitor shall be empowered to stop or redirect earthmoving
activities. Any resources identified on the site shall be properly catalogued and curated. The
monitor shall prepare a report of all findings and deliver same to the City Planning
Department within 30 days of the end of monitoring for review and approval.
2. A qualified paleontological monitor shall be on site during excavation and trenching on the
site, in conformance with the requirements of the "Phase I Cultural Resources Survey of the

3. Any identified resources shall be curated in a manner which meets the highest professional
standards. A report of any identified resources and of their disposition, shall be submitted to
the City Planning Department within 30 days of completion of earthmoving activities for
review and approval.
With implementation of these mitigation measures, impacts associated with cultural resources will be
reduced to less than significant levels.

study was prepared for the proposed projecr, and is used as the basis for the discussion below.
The site is not located within the boundaries of an Alquist Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone. However, the
site is located immediately southeast of such a Zone. Groundshaking on the property during a significant

seismic event can be expected to be significant. The City will require that all construction on the project
site meet or exceed seismic standards included in the Uniform Building Code. This standard requirement
will assure that potential impacts associated with groundshaking will be reduced to less than significant
levels.
The site is located in a high wind area as designated by the General Plan, and could be subject to wind
erosion, especially during construction of the proposed homes. The mitigation measures included in the
Air Quality section, however, are designed to lessen impacts associated with wind erosion to less than
significant levels.
The site will also be subject to erosion associated with storm water while under construction. The City
enforces the requirements of NPDES to assure that construction sites do not negatively impact storm
water. These standard requirements will be applied to the proposed project, and will include the
preparation of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Program (SWPPP) which includes best management
practices to be implemented during construction. These requirements are designed to assure that
potential impacts associated with water erosion are reduced to less than significant levels.
The site is not likely to be subject to liquefaction hazards, due to the depth to groundwater. The
geotechnical borings performed on the project site did not encounter water at depths of up to 51 feet, and
the geotechnical study estimates that groundwater is at a depth of 70 feet or more in this area of the City.
The site is not located adjacent to significant slopes or rock outcroppings, nor is it composed of hillsides,
and is not expected to be subject to landslides.
Overall geology and soils impacts associated with the buildout of the proposed project are expected to
be less than significant.

Discussion: The DDA, in and of itself, will have no impact on hazardous materials. The buildout of the
site will result in the construction of single family homes, which will store only small quantities of
hazardous materials associated with housekeeping and gardening. These materials will be disposed of
through household hazardous waste programs implemented by the City and third parties in the area.
Impacts are expected to be less than significant.
A Phase I Site Assessment was prepared for the proposed project site, to identify potential hazardous
materials on the site6. The Phase I study did not identify previous use of the property, or the location of
hazardous materials on the property.
The site is not identified as having been affected by hazardous materials in the state and federal
databases compiled for this purpose. The proposed project is not within the boundaries of an airport land
use plan.
The site is located in a Fire Hazard Area, and is identified as having a Moderate risk for wildland fires.
The project proponent will be required to implement fire prevention measures identified by the Fire
Marshal during review of the Tract Map for the project. These programs are designed to lower the
potential impacts associated with wildland fires to less than significant levels.
Overall impacts associated with hazards and hazardous materials are expected to be less than significant.

Discussion: The DDA will not, in and of itself, have any impacts on hydrology or water resources. The
ultimate development of the site for residential units has the potential to be significantly impacted by
hydrology, without mitigation. The development of the site will also result in the consumption of
domestic water for residential purposes.
The site will utilize domestic water for landscaping and for interior uses. The ultimate development of
279 homes will not significantly impact the demand for water services. The development is within the
range allowed in the General Plan, which has served as the basis for water management planning for the
City. Impacts associated with the provision of domestic water to the site are expected to be less than
significant. The development of single family homes is not expected to impact groundwater quality,
insofar as residential land uses do not generate significant pollutants which could impact the
groundwater basins in the area. Impacts are expected to be less than significant.
The project site is located within a 100 year flood plain, as determined by FEMA, and identified in the
General Plan. The floodplain area is associated with the location of Cable Creek immediately north of
the project site. Flood control improvements are proposed to protect the residential area from storm

flows. The project proponent will be required to prepare hydrology analyses which demonstrate that
with improvements, the land can be made safe from flood hazards. The City Engineer will review the
plans submitted, and assure that the designs provide for sufficient improvements to meet the City's
standards. Without implementation of mitigation, the impacts associated with hydrology could be
significant.
The City and state, as previously stated, require the preparation of SWPPP, which include best
management practices for water quality management. The City is also a co-permittee with the County of
San Bernardino in the implementation of the NPDES program, which implements standards for water
quality associated with surface water. These standards will assure that the construction of the project
will not degrade storm water, and will not release storm water into the City's storm drainage system in
an improper or unsafe manner.
The project site is not subject to tsunami or seiche.
In order to mitigate the potential impacts associated with flooding and flood zones within the project
site, the following mitigation measure shall be implemented:
1. Prior to approval of the Tentative Tract Map, the project proponent shall secure approval
from the City Engineer of a Preliminary Hydrology Study and associated hydraulic analysis
which demonstrates what improvements are required to remove the subject property from the
100 year flood plain. The City Engineer, may, at his discretion, require that the project
proponent also secure a Conditional Letter of Map Amendment, or Letter of Map
Amendment, from FEMA. All plans for improvements within Cable Creek shall also be
reviewed and approved by the San Bernardino Flood Control District.
With implementation of this mitigation measure, impacts associated with hydrology will be reduced to
less than significant levels.

RL land use designation to RS, allowing the development of 7,200 square foot lots within the project. In
addition, the 30.5 acres proposed for park land will require a Public Park designation. The future
General Plan Amendment and Change of Zone are expected to be compatible with land use designations
currently surrounding the site. Park lands are designated southeasterly of the project site. Residential

residential designations. The project site is located immediately adjacent to the 1-215 freeway. Should
the RS designation be applied, the proposed project will provide a buffer for RL and RL 3.5 lands
located to the north and northwest of the project site. The General Plan Amendment and Change of Zone
are supported by policies of the General Plan Land Use Element, including policies 2.1.3, 2.2.2, 2.5.6,
2.7.1 and the strategies of the Verdemont Heights Area Plan.
As previously stated, the proposed project will be required to implement fire protection measures
consistent with requirements for fire hazard areas.
The proposed project is not within the area of influence of the San Bernardino International Airport.

City's General Plan or Development Code, or
applicable standards of other agencies?
b) Exposure of persons to or generation of 0 0 0 ~

e) For a project located within an airport land use 0 0 0 ~
plan or Airport Influence Area, would the
project expose people residing or working in the
project area to excessive noise levels?
f) Other: 0 0 0 ~
Discussion: The DDA will not, in and of itself, affect noise levels in the project area. The ultimate
development of single family homes and the park lands will affect noise levels, both from construction
and operation of the project. In addition, the location of the project site adjacent to the Interstate 215
right of way has the potential to impact noise levels in the residential yards, and within the homes
themselves. In order to determine the potential impacts associated with noise at the site, a noise study
was prepared7.
Construction Noise
Construction of the proposed project will temporarily increase noise levels in the area. The City will
regulate the construction hours on the site to daytime hours, when impacts are less noticeable due to
higher ambient noise levels. However, noise levels from construction equipment can be significant, and
could impact surrounding sensitive receptors, such as homes which occur in the area surrounding the
7 "Noise Impact Analysis Bice Property Residential Development," prepared by LSA, August 2005.
IS 27
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO
INITIAL STUDY
project site. In order to assure that construction impacts are reduced to less than significant levels, the
noise study recommends the implementation of mitigation measures.
Off-Site Traffic Noise
The traffic generated by vehicles resulting in development of the site have the potential to increase noise
levels on surrounding roadways, and affect sensitive receptors. The study analyzed traffic noise levels
on the 1-215 freeway, Little League Drive, Palm Avenue and other roadways in the area surrounding the
proposed project. Existing noise levels without construction of the project were compared to those
which would be expected with the addition of project-related vehicle trips. This analysis found that the
operation of the proposed subdivision will not impact sensitive receptors, although noise levels on
Kendall south of Little League Drive will increase 5.1 dBA within the road right of way. The impact to
surrounding residents will therefore be less than significant.
On-Site Traffic Noise
Existing and future traffic noise on 1-215 and surrounding City roadways have the potential to impact
the residents of the project when it is developed. The study analyzed the potential impacts of traffic
noise on these roads, and found that the City street noise levels would not result in significant impacts
on the project site, primarily due to the distance from Little League Drive to the project site (streets
immediately adjacent to the project do not have high noise levels). The analysis found that noise levels
generated on 1-215 will impact'lots along the southern property line of the project, without the
implementation of mitigation measures. The study also analyzed the level of mitigation required to
lower the noise levels to the City's acceptable noise level of 65 dBA CNEL on the ground floor of
structures within the project, and found that wall heights of 6 to 10 feet will be required to mitigate the
ground floor condition. The analysis further considered the potential impacts of noise from potential
second stories along the property boundary, and found that noise levels would exceed the City's
standard. This analysis further found that building upgrades are necessary to assure that the second floor
interior noise levels do not exceed the City's 45 dBA CNEL. Impacts associated with off-site traffic
noise on project houses are therefore significant, and must be mitigated.
In order to mitigate noise impacts to less than significant levels, the following mitigation measures are
required:
1. All construction equipment shall be equipped with properly operating mufflers.
2. All stationary construction equipment shall be directed away from sensitive receptors near
the project site.
3. Construction staging areas shall be located as far away from sensitive receptors as possible.
4. A sound wall of 6 to 10 feet, as delineated in Table M of the Noise Impact Analysis cited
below, shall be constructed along the project frontage on 1-215.
5. If second floor balconies or decks are proposed for any home adjacent to the 1-215 right of
way, facing the right of way, a solid barrier of at least 5 feet shall be provided on the
perimeter of the balcony or deck.
6. Second floor bedroom windows shall be equipped with double-paned windows with a
minimum sound transmission class of STC-28 to STC-34.
7. Mechanical ventilation shall be provided for all homes within 2,200 feet of the centerline of
1-215.

b) Other: D D D ~
Discussion: The DDA will have no impact on the provision of public services. The buildout of the
proposed project will result in an increase in demand for public services, which will be offset by the
sales and property tax generated by the homes and their occupants.
The project site was the subject of an agreement with the San Bernardino City Unified School District in
1991 which waived the payment of school fees for up to 245 dwelling units. The provisions of this
agreement will apply to the proposed project. Therefore, the project proponent will be required to pay
school impact fees for 34 units at the time of issuance of building permits.
Overall impacts associated with public services are expected to be less than significant.

INITIAL STUDY
A traffic analysis was prepared for the residential component of the proposed projects. The study
included analysis of current conditions, opening project year conditions, and 2030 conditions. The study
analyzed the impacts on eight intersections, as follows:
1. 1-215 SB Ramps @ Palm
2. 1-215 NB Ramps @ Palm
3. Kendall Drive @Little League
4. Kendall Drive @ Palm
5. Belmont Ave. @Little League
6. Belmont Ave. Palm
7. Meyers Road@Palm
8. Highway 215 Frontage Road @ Little League
The analysis of current conditions found that under current conditions, all studied intersections operate
at acceptable levels of service (LOS) during the AM and PM peak hour. Under the opening year
scenario, without the proposed project, the 1-215 NB Ramps at Palm operate at LOS E in the PM peak
hour, while all other intersections operate at LOS D or better. With the addition of the proposed project
in its opening year, both the north and south bound ramps of 1-215 at Palm operate at LOS D or worse
during both the AM and PM peak hour. All other intersections studied are estimated to operate at LOS D
or better during that same time period. For the 2030 horizon year, the studied intersections all operate at
acceptable levels of service, both without and with the proposed project.
The proposed park lands will experience their highest levels of activity on weekends and evenings, when
the local street and freeway system is less impacted. The highest number of trips expected to be
generated (370 daily trips on Saturdays), are not expected to significantly impact local roadways.
The proposed project, as described above, will have an impact on traffic levels at the 1-215 interchange
at Palm Avenue in the short term (both ramps). The project's contribution to the deficiency was
determined to be 8% for the southbound ramps, and 9% for the northbound ramps. The traffic study
found that the signalization of the ramps is required to mitigate the impacts of the deficient level of
service. In order to reduce the potential impact to these two intersections to less than significant levels,
the following mitigation measure is required.
I. The project shall contribute its fair share to the signalization of the northbound and
southbound ramps ofI-215 at Palm Avenue.
The proposed project does not involve air traffic, and will therefore have no impact on air traffic
patterns. The design of streets will be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer to ensure safe
operations. The proposed project will be required to provide adequate access for emergency vehicles.
The proposed project will be required to comply with Zoning Ordinance standards for on site parking, in
the form of a two car garage. The proposed project will have no impact on alternative transportation
planning.

connection and service fees for the provision of their services to homeowners. The service fees are
designed to include the cost of upgrading and replacement equipment and facilities as the need arises.
These connection and service charges will mitigate for potential impacts associated with the buildout of
the site, insofar as the future needs of each utility has been factored into the rates paid by each customer.
The City's solid waste programs include mandatory recycling programs through the City's Public
Services Department. These programs are designed to lower the total refuse generated at the site in
conformance with the requirements of AB939, and thereby lower the impacts of growth on area
landfills.
Overall impacts associated with utilities are expected to be insignificant.

b) Does the project have impacts that are 0 0 0 rzJ
individually limited, but cumulatively
considerable? ("Cumulatively considerable"
means that the incremental effects of a project
are considerable when viewed in connection
with the effects of past projects, the effects of
other current projects, and the effects of
probable future projects,)
c) Does the project have environmental effects 0 rzJ 0 0
which will cause substantial adverse effects
on human beings, either directly or indirectly?
Discussion: The DDA will have no impact on biological or cultural resources, on cumulative impacts, or
on human beings. The buildout of the project will impact biological and cultural resources, but these
impacts have been mitigated in this report. These mitigation measures will assure that potential impacts
on these resources are less than significant.
The proposed project is in conformance with the land use designation assigned to the property in the
General Plan. Cumulative impacts studied in the General Plan ErR will therefore not be exceeded as a
result of implementation ofthe proposed project.
The proposed project will impact human beings through impacts to air quality and noise. Mitigation
measures included in this Initial Study, however, will reduce these potential impacts to less than
significant levels,

Response to Comments
Initial Stndy for the Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) between
Century Crowell Communities, LP and the Redevelopment Agency of the City of
San Bernardino
The Agency received two letters in response to the above referenced Initial Study. One
from the California Department of Transportation (CalTrans), and one from the
California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC). In addition, the Agency
received transmittals from the Governor's Office of Planning and Research, State
Clearinghouse and Planning Unit, reporting on the comment period and attaching the two
letters from the agencies cited above. All correspondence is attached.
The comments made by CalTrans and DTSC are addressed individually below.
Department of Toxic Substances Control
The Department incorrectly states that the MND does not identify potentially
contaminated sites within the project area. Page IS 20 specifically states:
"The site is not identified as having been affected by hazardous materials in the state and
federal databases compiledfor this purpose."
Comments 3) through 9) address requirements for conducting investigations and
remediating contaminated soils. Since it has been determined that no contamination has
occurred on the site, these comments do not apply.
Comments 10) and 11) refer to the need for an NPDES permit. The permit will be
required for the construction of the project. As stated in the Initial Study, the proposed
project will be required to undergo further environmental review when a project is
submitted to the City. The City will require compliance with NPDES standards as part of
its standard requirements. This will include best management practices to address
potential contamination.
Comment 12) addresses the site's potential use for agricultural purposes. The site has not
been in agriculture, as stated in the Initial Study, and therefore the requested investigation
does not apply.
Department of Transportation
CalTrans notes that the current right of way of the 1-215 may be insufficient, and that the
project should be designed with a 40 foot landscaped buffer to allow for future right of
way acquisition; that the project should be responsible for the installation of the traffic
signal at the 1-215Palm intersection; and that the Traffic Study should be consistent with
the requirements of the Congestion Management Plan (CMP).

As stated in the IS, the Development Agreement is the project currently being considered
under CEQA. As required by CEQA, the Initial Study addresses the potential build out of
the project in concept, since it is known that the Development Agreement would result in
the development of a residential subdivision on the site.
The project has not been designed, and will require review and approval by the City in
the future. Project -specific issues will be considered by the City at that time, and it will
determine, through further environmental review, what impacts the project will have on
the circulation system, including the need for additional right of way and traffic signals.
The City will also require the preparation of a traffic impact analysis. The City regularly
requests the preparation of CMP-compliant traffic studies, and the City will require it at
the time the project is submitted for review.
Conclusion
Comments made by CalTrans and the DTSC generally affect the actual development of
the project site, not the implementation of the Disposition and Development Agreement.
None of the comments affect the conclusions of the Initial Study, or require that the
mitigation measures proposed be amended.

MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION (MND) FOR A DISPOSITION AND
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT RESULTING IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF 279
SING LE FAMILY HOMES, A 7.5 ACRE PARK, A 5.5 ACRE PARK, AND A 14 ACRE
SOCCER PARK ON 91.75 ACRES IN THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO
(SCH# 2006051052)
Dear Mr. Strange:
The Departrnent of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) has received your submitted
Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) for the above-mentioned project. The following
project description is stated in your document: "The project consists of a Disposition and
Development Agreement (DDA) between Century Crowell Communities LP, and the
Redevelopment Agency of the City of San Bernardino (Agency) to convey 91.75 acres
to Century Crowell Communities LP, which will develop approximately 279 single family
lots, as well as lots for streets, a 7.5 acre park, a 5.5 acre park, and a 14 acre soccer
park through the preparation and approval of a Tract Map to be submitted to the City of
San Bernardino."
Based on the review of the submitted document, DTSC has comments as follow:
1) The MND should identify and determine whether current or historic uses in the
Project area may have resulted in any release of hazardous wastes/substances.
The MND states: "A Phase I Site Assessment was prepared for the proposed
project site, to identify potential hazardous materials on the site. The Phase I
study did not identify previous use of the property, or the location of hazardous
materials on the property.
@ Printed on Recycled Paper
Mr. Colin Strange
May 24, 2006
Page 2
2) The MND should identify any known or potentially contaminated sites within the
proposed Project area. For all identified sites, the MND should evaluate whether
conditions at the site may pose a threat to human health or the environment. A
Phase I Assessment may be sufficient to identify these sites. Following are the
databases of some of the regulatory agencies:
. National Priorities List (NPL): A list maintained by the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (U.S.EPA).
. Site Mitigation Program Property Database (formerly CaISites): A Database
primarily used by the California Department of Toxic Substances Control.
. Resource Conservation and Recovery Information System (RCRIS): A database
of RCRA facilities that is maintained by U.S. EPA.
. Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Information
System (CERCLlS): A database of CERCLA sites that is maintained by U.S.EPA.
. Solid Waste Information System (SWIS): A database provided by the California
Integrated Waste Management Board which consists of both open as well as
closed and inactive solid waste disposal facilities and transfer stations.
. Leaking Underground Storage Tanks (LUST) / Spills, Leaks, Investigations and
Cleanups (SLlC): A list that is maintained by Regional Water Quality Control
Boards.
. Local Counties and Cities maintain lists for hazardous substances cleanup sites
and leaking underground storage tanks.
. The United States Army Corps of Engineers, 911 Wilshire Boulevard,
Los Angeles, California, 90017, (213) 452-3908, maintains a list of Formerly Used
Defense Sites (FUDS).
3) The MND should identify the mechanism to initiate any required investigation
and/or remediation for any site that may be contaminated, and the government
agency to provide appropriate regulatory oversight. If hazardous materials or
wastes were stored at the site, an environmental assessment should be
conducted to determine if a release has occurred. If so, further studies should
be carried out to delineate the nature and extent of the contamination, and the
potential threat to public health and/or the environment should be evaluated.
It may be necessary to determine if an expedited response action is required to
Mr. Colin Strange
May 24, 2006
Page 3
reduce existing or potential threats to public health or the environment. If no
immediate threat exists, the final remedy should be implemented in compliance
with state regulations, policies, and laws.
4) All environmental investigations, sampling and/or remediation for the site should
be conducted under a Workplan approved and overseen by a regulatory agency
that has jurisdiction to oversee hazardous substance cleanup. The findings of
any investigations, including Phase I and II investigations, should be summarized
in the document. All sampling results in which hazardous substances were found
should be clearly summarized in a table.
5) Proper investigation, sampling and remedial actions, if necessary, should be
conducted at the site prior to the new development or any construction, and
overseen by a regulatory agency.
6) If any property adjacent to the project site is contaminated with hazardous
chemicals, and if the proposed project is within 2,000 feet from a contaminated
site, except for a gas station, then the proposed development may fall within the
"Border Zone of a Contaminated Property." Appropriate precautions should be
taken prior to construction if the proposed project is within a "Border Zone
Property.
7) If building structures, asphalt or concrete-paved surface areas or other structures
are planned to be demolished, an investigation should be conducted for the
presence of lead-based paints or products, mercury, and asbestos containing
materials (ACMs). If lead-based paints or products, mercury or ACMs are
identified, proper precautions should be taken during demolition activities.
Additionally, the contaminants should be remediated in compliance with California
environmental regulations, policies, and laws.
8) The project construction may require soil excavation and soil filling in certain
areas. Appropriate sampling is required prior to disposal of the excavated soil.
If the soil is contaminated, properly dispose of it rather than placing it in another
location. Land Disposal Restrictions (LDRs) may be applicable to these soils.
Also, if the project proposes to import soil to backfill the areas excavated, proper
sampling should be conducted to make sure that the imported soil is free of
contamination.
9) Human health and the environment of sensitive receptors should be protected
during the construction or demolition activities. A study of the site, overseen by
the appropriate government agency, might have to be conducted to determine if
Mr. Colin Strange

there are, have been, or will be, any releases of hazardouS materials that may
pose a risk to human health or the environment.
10) If the project plans include discharging wastewater to a storm drain or surface
water, it may be necessary to obtain an NPOES permit from the overseeing
Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB).
11) If during construction/demolition in the Project area, soil and/or groundwater
contamination is suspected, construction/demolition in the area should cease
and appropriate health and safety procedures should be implemented. If it is
determined that contaminated soil and/or groundwater exist, the NO should
identify how any required investigation and/or remediation will be conducted,
and the appropriate government agency to provide regulatory oversight.
12) If the site was and/or is used for agricultural activities, onsite soils may contain
pesticide, herbicides and agricultural chemical residue. Proper investigation and
remedial actions, if necessary, should be conducted at the site prior to
construction of the project.

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), has reviewed the notice of a
pending Development Agreement for a 279-10t subdivision on 91.75 acres located at
Little League Road and Interstate 215 (1-215).
We offer the following comments on the preliminary application materials that were
provided to us regarding this site:
· We note that 1-215 currently has 180 feet of right-of-way in the vicinity of this
development. Our Route Concept Report for 1-215 calls for an Ultimate
Transportation Facility of 10 lanes. Potential also exists for the need for auxiliary
lanes. For these reasons it appears that a total right-of-way width of260 feet will be
needed. We request that the developer set aside a 40 foot wide landscape buffer along
the 1-215 frontage which could be purchased by the State for right-of-way use at a
later date.

· The preliminary traffic study for this development indicates a traffic signal at the
I-215/Palm Avenue Interchange will likely meet warrants at project opening and that
the applicant will be required to pay their fair share but not actually install the signal.
We feel this will not be adequate to meet the mobility needs of this area upon
completion of this development and the City will need to ensure that any newly
needed traffic signals are actually installed.
· The Traffic Impact Analysis should be consistent with Appendix C/Figure C-l per
San Bernardino County CMP, 2005 Update, "Preparation of SANBAG and Caltrans
TIA Reports." This guide is available on the internet at:

MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM
FOR THE
DISPOSITION AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN CENTURY
CROWELL COMMUNITIES, LP AND THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF
THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO
This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program has been prepared to implement the
mitigation measures outlined in the Environmental Assessment for the Disposition and
Development Agreement between Century Crowell Communities LP and the
Redevelopment Agency of the City of San Bernardino. This program has been prepared
in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State and
City of San Bernardino CEQA Guidelines.
CEQA Section 21081.6 requires adoption of a monitoring and/or reporting program 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 program shall be
designed to ensure compliance during project implementation.
The Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program contains the following elements:
1. The mitigation measures are recorded with the action and procedure
necessary to ensure compliance. The program lists the mitigation measures
contained within the Initial Study.
2. A procedure for compliance and verification has been outlined for each
mandatory mitigation action. This procedure designates who will take
action, what action will be taken and when, and to whom and when
compliance will be reported.
3. The program contains a separate Mitigation Monitoring and Compliance
Record for each action. On each of these record sheets, the pertinent
actions and dates will be logged, and copies of permits, correspondence or
other data relevant will be retained by the City of San Bernardino.
4. The program is designed to be flexible. As monitoring progresses, changes
to compliance procedures may be necessary based upon recommendations
by those responsible for the program. If changes are made, new
monitoring compliance procedures and records will be developed and
incorporated into the program.
The individual measures and accompanying monitoring/reporting actions follow.

Description of Project (Describe the whole action involved, including, but not limited to, later
phases of the project and any secondary, support, or off-site feature necessary for its
implementation. Attach additional sheets, if necessary):
The project consists of a Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) between Century
Crowell Communities LP, and the Redevelopment Agency of the City of San Bernardino (Agency)
to convey 79 acres to Century Crowell Communities LP. Century Cro\vell \vill secure an additional
12 acres owned by the San Bernardino County Flood Control District, 3 acres of which will be
used for the residential component of the project, and 9 acres of which will be used for the
development of the park lands. Ultimately, the project will result in approximately 279 single
family lots on 82 acres, as well as lots for streets, and 30.5 acres of park lands. Century Crowell
will be responsible for mass grading of the 30.5 acres of park land, and the Agency will convey the
mass graded park land to the City for development of the park. The City will subsequently improve
the park lands. In addition, to secure the property against flooding from Cable Creek, immediately
adjacent to the east, Century Crowell will improve] 03.5 acres of the Cable Creek channel, to

include bank improvements and a detention basin. No improvement plans for these facilities are
available at the time of this v,Titing. Altogether, the ultimate development will impact a total of
216io acres.
No General Plan Amendment, Change of Zone or Tentative Tract Map application has been
submitted at this time. Century Crowell Communities LP will submit these applications to the City
of San Bernardino subsequent to approval of the DDA, which will require review and approval by
the City. Project descriptions indicate that the project is likely to be developed in phases.
The Redevelopment Agency is the Lead Agency in preparation of this Initial Study. This Initial
Study has been prepared based on information and plans available at this time. The City of San
Bernardino will be the Lead Agency responsible for review of the Tentative Tract Map, and
improvement of the 30.5 acres of park land. The City will determine what additional review is
required under CEQA.
8. Surrounding Land Uses and Setting:
The property is irregular in shape and orientation, and is bounded by Interstate 215 and Frontage
Road rights of way on its south: vacant lands on its west and north; vacant lands and Cable Creek

b) Substantially damage scenic resources, D D D (8J
including but not limited to, trees, rock

character of quality of the site and its
surroundings0
d) Create a new source of substantial light or glare D D (8J D
- which would adversely affect day or nighnime
view in the area0
e) Other: D D D (8J
Discussion: The proposed DDA will not, in and of itself, have any impact on aesthetics, light or glare,
The ultimate development of 279 single family homes will result in one and .two story construction on
the property, as well as 30,5 acres of park land, and 103.5 acres of flood control improvements to Cable
Creek.
The project site is relatively flat and occurs at the base of an alluvial fan which extends northeasterly
from the project site. Lands to the east and north are at higher elevations than the proposed project site.
Scattered residential development occurs to the east and northeast of the site. The foothills of the San
Bernardino Mountains occur to the north and east of the project site, within 0.25 to one mile. Due to its
relatively flat topography, and its occurrence at the relative low-point in the area. the development of the
site will have little impact on viewsheds or vistas in the area. The project's location immediately north
of the Interstate 215 right of way has the potential to negatively impact the viewsheds of homes within
the project site. However, the project perimeter will be screened from view of this right of way by a
perimeter wall, which will limit the potential visual impacts associated with the Interstate to less than
significant levels.
The parks and flood control improvements proposed will have negligible impacts on aesthetics, insofar
as the lack of structures in these areas of the site will limit the perceived change from the existing
natural condition.
There are no significant trees, rock outcroppings or structures on the project site.

Development of '279 lots will result in lighting from landscape lighting, street lights. homes and light
generated by vehicles. The project will be required to conform to the City's residential lighting
standards, which limit the amount of light which can be installed on single family homes. The proposed
park may include lighting. Should lighting bc proposed, it will be reviewed for conformance with the
City's lighting standards. Further, the orientation of the park, at the southeast corner of the site and away
from the residential land uses, will limit the potential impacts associated with lighting at this location.
Impacts associated with light and glare are expected to be less than significant.

Discussion: Neither the proposed DDA nor the development of 279 single family homes, 30.5 acres of
park land, or flood control improvements will have any impact on agricultural resources. All lands
proposed for development are designated for urban or public land uses in the General Plan, and are not
in agriculture. There are no Williamson Act contracts in effect on project lands. There are no agricultural
lands in the vicinity of the project site, nor are any lands designated for agriculture in the area.

III. AIR QUALITY - Would the project:
a) Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the D D D ~
applicable air quality plan? (South Coast Air
Basin)
b) Violate any air quality standard or contribute D ~ D D
substantially to an existing or projected air
quality violation based on the thresholds in the
SCAQ\1D's "CEQA Air Quality Handbook?"
c) Result in a cumulatively considerable net D D ~ D
increase of any criteria pollutant for which the
project region is non-attainment under an
applicable federal or state ambient air quality
standard (including releasing emissions which
L~ exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone
precursors)?
d) Expose sensitive receptors to substantial D D D ~
pollutant concentrations')
e) Create objectionable odors affecting a D D D ~
substantial number of people based on the
information contained in Project Description
Form?
f) Other: D D D ~
Discussion: The proposed DDA will not, in and of itself, have any impact on air quality. Development
of 279 single family homes, 30.5 acres of park land, and flood control improvements will result in both
construction and operational impacts associated with air quality.
The proposed project is consistent with the General Plan land use designation applied to the property.
Air quality management planning for the City and region have been developed based on the General
Plan land use maps for the City and those around it. The project does not propose any unusual or highly
polluting land uses. The project is therefore expected to be consistent with the air quality management
plans in place for the region.

Construction Impacts
The development of the site will include mass grading, which has the potential to generate two types of
emissions. First, those chemical emissions generated by the operation of heavy equipment, and second
those emissions of fugitive dust generated by ground disturbance. It is not known whether grading of the
site will result in a need for import or export of dirt to or from the site. Based on typical construction
projects in the area, an estimate of grading equipment required has been developed. Once project
grading plans have been completed, a more accurate representation of air quality impacts will be
developed.

Based on this analysis, the development of the project site would not exceed SCAQMD thresholds of
significance during the grading and site preparation process. Impacts are therefore expected to be less
than significant.
The project site can be subject to significant winds, which can transport dust, including particulate
matter of 10 microns or less (PMIO). The following Table illustrates the potential fugitive dust which
could be generated at the project site during mass grading operations.

Based on the Table above, the proposed project will exceed SCAQMD thresholds for dust generation.
Although these impacts will be of short duration (only during the grading of the site), a number of
mitigation methods are available. In order to assure that these impacts are reduced to less than
significant levels, mitigation is provided below.
Operational Impacts
The development of 279 single family homes has the potential to generate 2,670 average daily trips 1 In
addition to the homes, the park will also generate trifs, and therefore associated air. emissions. The park
can be expected to generate 370 tnps on a Saturday . Therefore, the total trIps which could ocCur from
the project site would be 3,040 trips per day. Although the park emissions will be periodic, insofar as the
park will experience most of its activities on weekend days, this analysis assumes a worst case scenario,
and analyzes the total emissions of both uses. On this basis, the following Table illustrates the
anticipated daily emissions associated with project buildout.

for the project site, including the flood control property] The survey included trapping studies for the
San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat in 2003, 2004 and 2005. Focused surveys were also conducted in 2005
for sensitive plants, and coastal California gnatcatcher.
The survey found that the site has been partially disturbed by dumping, off road vehicle use, and bee
keeping. The survey of the site included the identification of three plant communities: Riversidian
alluvial fan sage scrub, California annual grassland, and Riversidian sage scrub. Riversidian alluvial fan
sage scrub is considered a sensitive plant community, and the potential impacts associated with the
proposed project could be significant without the implementation of mitigation measures. The site.
including the Cable Creek portion of the project, contains 127.5 acres of such habitat.
A total of eight sensitive species have been observed on the site: San Diego horned lizard, loggerhead
shrike, San Bernardino kangaroo rat, Northwestern San Diego pocket mouse, San Diego desert woodrat,
Los Angeles pocket mouse, Black-tailed jackrabbit, and Parry's spineflower.
The 2005 focused surveys were negative for all surveyed species. The site is designated, however, as
critical habitat for both the San Bernardino kangaroo rat and the coastal California gnatcatcher.
Mitigation measures must be implemented to assure that potential impacts to these species are reduced
to less than significant levels.
-- The site was found to contain Los Angeles pocket mouse. Impacts to this species could be significant
without the implementation of mitigation measures.
Development of the site will include improvements to Cable Creek. The creek is likely to contain waters
of the US, and fall under the jurisdiction of both the US Army Corps of Engineers and the California
Department of Fish and Game. These agencies will require permitting. and appropriate mitigation of
impacts to species and communities of concern. Mitigation measures must be implemented to reduce
potential impacts to less than significant levels.
The project site is not within any area designated for wildlife corridors.
In order to assure that impacts to biological resources are reduced to less than significant levels, the
following mitigation measures shall be implemented:
1. Removal of trees and shrubs should occur on the site outside of the bird nesting season.
Should earth moving on the site involving the removal of trees and shrubs be proposed for
the period from February through August of each year, the project proponent shall cause a
nesting bird study to be prepared and submitted to the City Planner for review and approval.
The study shall be prepared by a qualified biologist, and shall include recommendations on
the avoidance of trees or shrubs where nests are present, if necessary. The study shall be
completed 30 days prior to the initiation of grading or tree and shrub removal on the site, and
approved prior to the issuance of grading permits.

Discussion: The proposed DDA will not, in and of itself, have any impact on cultural resources. The
ultimate development of 279 homes, 30.5 acres of park land, or flood control improvements on the site,
however, will disturb lands with the potential for such resources. A cultural resource survey was
conducted for the proposed project'.
The survey included both records searches and field inspections of the project site. The records search
identified a number of previously identified resources in the vicinity of, but not on, the project site. The
on site survey conducted on the project site identified no culturally significant resources in the area to be
impacted by the proposed project. The proximity of other sites, however, led to a determination that
there is a moderate potential for cultural resources to be unearthed during earth moving activities on the
site. In order to assure that impacts to these resources are reduced to less than significant levels,
mitigation measures must be implemented.
The cultural resource study also included an analysis of the potential for paleontological resources on
the site. No on site analysis was conducted. The analysis of soil types concluded, however, that
Pleistocene fan deposits occur on the project site, and that these deposits have a high potential sensitivity

for paleontological resources. In order to assure that impacts to these resources are reduced to less than
significant levels, mitigation measures must be implemented.
The site is not in an area known to have buried human remains. State law requires that anyone
uncovering human remains report the find to law enforcement authorities. The project contractor will be
required to conform to these requirements. Law enforcement officials would, if necessary, determine the
need for Native American consultation, should remains be identified on the site during earth moving
activities.

seismic event can be expected to be significant. The City will require that all construction on the project
site meet or exceed seismic standards included in the Uniform Building Code. This standard requirement
will assure that potential impacts associated with groundshaking will be reduced to less than significant
levels.
The site is located in a high wind area as designated by the General Plan, and could be subject to wind
erosion, especially during construction of the proposed homes. The mitigation measures included in the
Air Quality section, however, are designed to lessen impacts associated with wind erosion to less than
significant levels.
The site will also be subject to erosion associated with storm water while under construction. The City
enforces the requirements of NPDES to assure that construction sites do not negatively impact storm
water. These standard requirements will be applied to the proposed project. and will include the
preparation of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Program (SWPPP) which includes best management
practices to be implemented during construction. These requirements are designed to assure that
potential impacts associated with water erosion are reduced to less than significant levels.
The site is not likely to be subject to liquefaction hazards, due to the depth to groundwater. The
geotechnical borings performed on the project site did not encounter water at depths of up to 51 feet, and
the geotechnical study estimates that groundwater is at a depth of 70 feet or more in this area of the City.

Discussion: The DDA will not, in and of itself, have any impacts on hydrology or water resources. The
ultimate development of the site for residential units has the potential to be significantly impacted by
hydrology, without mitigation. The development of the site will also result in the consumption of
domestic water for residential purposes.
The site will utilize domestic water for landscaping and for interior uses. The ultimate development of
279 homes will not significantly impact the demand for water services. The development is within the
range allowed in the General Plan, which has served as the basis for water management planning for the
City. Impacts associated with the provision of domestic water to the site are expected to be less than
significant. The development of single family homes is not expected to impact groundwater quality,
insofar as residential land uses do not generate significant pollutants which could impact the
groundwater basins in the area. Impacts are expected to be less than significant.
The project site is located within a 100 year flood plain, as determined by FEMA, and identified in the
General Plan. The floodplain area is associated with the location of Cable Creek immediately north of
thc project site. Flood control improvements are proposed to protect the residential area from storm

flows. The project. proponent will be required to prepare hydrology analyses which demonstrate that
with improvements. the land can be made safe from flood hazards. The City Engineer will review the
plans submitted, and assure that the designs provide for sufficient improvements to meet the City's
standards. Without implementation of mitigation, the impacts associated with hydrology could be
significant.
The City and state. as previously stated, require the preparation of S\VPPP, which include best
management practices for water quality management. The City is also a co-permittee with the County of
San Bernardino in the implementation of the NPDES program, which implements standards for water
quality associated with surface water. These standards will assure that the construction of the project
will not degrade storm water. and will not release storm water into the City's storm drainage system in
an improper or unsafe mmmer.
The project site is not subject to tsunami or seiche.
In order to mitigate the potential impacts associated with flooding and flood zones within the project
site, the following mitigation measure shall be implemented:
1.
Prior to approval of the Tentative Tract Map, the project proponent shall secure approval
from the City Engineer of a Preliminary Hydrology Study and associated hydraulic analysis
which demonstrates what improvements are required to remove the subject property from the
100 year flood plain. The City Engineer, may, at his discretion, require that the project
proponent also secure a Conditional Letter of Map /\Jnendment, or Letter of Map
Amendment. from FE\lA. All plans for improvements within Cable Creek shall also be
reviewed and approved by the San Bernardino Flood Control District.

plan or Airport Influence Area, would the
project expose people residing or working in the
project area to excessive noise levels?
f) Other: 0 0 0 [gJ
Discussion: The DDA will not, in and of itselt~ affect noise levels in the project area. The ultimate
development of single family homes and the park lands will affect noise levels, both from construction
and operation of the project. In addition, the location of the project site adjacent to the Interstate 2 I 5
right of way has the potential to impact noise levels in the residential yards, and within the homes
themselves. In order to determine the potential impacts associated with noise at the site, a noise study
was prepared'.
Construction Noise
Construction of the proposed project will temporarily increase noise levels in the area. The City will
regulate the construction hours on the site to daytime hours, when impacts are less noticeable due to
higher ambient noise levels. However, noise levels from construction equipment can be significant, and
could impact surrounding sensitive receptors, such as homes which occur in the area surrounding the

project site. In order to assure that construction impacts are reduced to less than significant levels, the
noise study recommends the implementation of mitigation measures.
Off-Site Traffic Noise
The traffic generated by vehicles resulting in development of the site have the potential to increase noise
levels on surrounding roadways, and affect sensitive receptors. The study analyzed traffic noise levels
on the 1-215 freeway, Linle League Drive, Palm A venue and other roadways in the area surrounding the
proposed project. Existing noise levels without construction of the project were compared to those
which would be expected with the addition of project-related vehicle trips. This analysis found that the
operation of the proposed subdivision will not impact sensitive receptors, although noise levels on
Kendall south of Linle League Drive will increase 5.1 dBA within the road right of way. The impact to
surrounding residents will therefore be less than significant.
On-Site Traffic Noise
Existing and future traffic noise on 1-215 and surrounding City roadways have the potential to impact
the residents of the project when it is developed. The study analyzed the potential impacts of traffic
noise on these roads, and found that the City street noise levels would not result in significant impacts
on the project site, primarily due to the distance from Linle League Drive to the project site (streets
immediately adjacent to the project do not have high noise levels). The analysis found that noise levels
generated on 1-215 will impact' lots along the southern property line of the project, without the
- implementation of mitigation measures. The study also analyzed the level of mitigation required to
lower the noise levels to the City's acceptable noise level of 65 dBA CNEL on the ground floor of
structures within the project, and found that wall heights of 6 to 10 feet will be required to mitigate the
ground floor condition. The analysis further considered the potential impacts of noise from potential
second stories along the property boundary, and found that noise levels would exceed the City's
standard. This analysis further found that building upgrades are necessary to assure that the second floor
interior noise levels do not exceed the City's 45 dBA CNEL. Impacts associated with off-site traffic
noise on project houses are therefore significant, and must be mitigated.
In order to mitigate noise impacts to less than significant levels, the following mitigation measures are
required:
I. All construction equipment shall be equipped with properly operating mufflers.
2. All stationary construction equipment shall be directed away from sensitive receptors near
the project site.
3. Construction staging areas shall be located as far away from sensitive receptors as possible.
4. A sound wall of 6 to 10 feet, as delineated in Table M of the Noise Impact Analysis cited
below, shall be constructed along the project frontage on 1-215.
5. If second floor balconies or decks are proposed for any home adjacent to the 1-215 right of
way, facing the right of way, a solid barrier of at least 5 feet shall be provided on the
perimeter of the balcony or deck.
6. Second floor bedroom windows shall be equipped with double-paned windows with a
minimum sound transmission class of STC-28 to STC-34.
7. Mechanical ventilation shall be provided for all homes within 2,200 feet of the centerline of
1-215.

Discussion: The DDA will have no impact on the provision of public services. The buildout of the
proposed project will result in an increase in demand for public services, which will be offset by the
sales and property tax generated by the homes and their occupants.
The project site was the subject of an agreement with the San Bernardino City Unified School District in
1991 which waived the payment of school fees for up to 245 dwelling units. The provisions of this
agreement will apply to the proposed project. Therefore, the project proponent will be required to pay
school impact fees for 34 units at the time of issuance of building permits.
Overall impacts associated with public services are expected to be less than significant.

INITL-\L STUDY
"",,,,,,,...-
A traffic analysis was prepared for the residential component of the proposed project8 The study
included analysis of current conditions, opening project year conditions, and 2030 conditions. The study
analyzed the impacts on eight intersections, as follows:
I. 1-215 SB Ramps@Palm
2. 1-215 NB Ramps@Palm
3. Kendall Drive @ Linle League
4. Kendall Drive @Palm
5. Belmont Ave. @Linle League
6. Belmont Ave. Palm
7. Meyers Road @ Palm
8. Highway 215 Frontage Road @ Linle League
The analysis of current conditions found that under current conditions, all studied intersections operate
at acceptable levels of service (LOS) during the AM and PM peak hour. Under the opening year
scenario, without the proposed project, the 1-215 NB Ramps at Palm operate at LOS E in the PM peak
hour, while all other intersections operate at LOS D or better. With the addition of the proposed project
in its opening year, both the north and south bound ramps of 1-215 at Palm operate at LOS D or worse
during both the AM and PM peak hour. All other intersections studied are estimated to operate at LOS D
or bener during that same time period. For the 2030 horizon year, the studied intersections all operate at
acceptable levels of service, both without and with the proposed project.
",~^..."...-
The proposed park lands will experience their highest levels of activity on weekends and evenings, whe'n
the local street and freeway system is less impacted. The highest number of trips expected to be
generated (370 daily trips on Saturdays), are not expected to significantly impact local roadways.
The proposed project, as described above, will have an impact on traffic levels at the 1-21 5 interchange
at Palm Avenue in the short term (both ramps). The project's contribution to the deficiency was
determined to be 8% for the southbound ramps, and 9% for the northbound ramps. The traffic study
found that the signalization of the ramps is required to mitigate the impacts of the deficient level of
service. In order to reduce the potential impact to these two intersections to less than significant levels,
the following mitigation measure is required.
I. The project shall contribute its fair share to the signalization of the northbound and
southbound ramps ofI-215 at Palm Avenue.
I ne proposed project does not involve air traffic, and WIll tnerefore have no impact on air traffic
panerns. The design of streets will be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer to ensure safe
operations. The proposed project will be required to provide adequate access for emergency vehicles.
The proposed project will be required to comply with Zoning Ordinance standards for on site parking, in
the form of a two car garage. The proposed project will have no impact on alternative transportation
planning.

c) Does the project have environmental effects 0 [gJ 0 0
which will cause substantial adverse effects
on human beings, either directly or indirectly?
Discussion: The DDA will have no impact on biological or cultural resources, on cumulative impacts, or
on human beings. The buildout of the project will impact biological and cultural resources, but these
impacts have been mitigated in this report. These mitigation measures will assure that potential impacts
on these resources are less than significant.
The proposed project is in conformance with the land use designation assigned to the property in the
General Plan. Cumulative impacts studied in the General Plan EIR will therefore not be exceeded as a
result of implementation of the proposed project.
The proposed project will impact human beings through impacts to air quality and noise. Mitigation
measures included in this Initial Study, however, will reduce these potential impacts to less than
significant levels.

Response to Comments
Initial Stndy for the Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) between
Centnry Crowell Commnnities, LP and the Redevelopment Agency of the City of
San Bernardino
The Agency received two letters in response to the above referenced Initial Study. One
from the California Department of Transportation (CalTrans), and one from the
California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC). In addition, the Agency
received transminals from the Governor's Office of Planning and Research, State
Clearinghouse and Planning Unit, reporting on the comment period and anaching the two
letters from the agencies cited above. All correspondence is attached.
The comments made by CalTrans and DTSC are addressed individually below.
Department of Toxic Snbstances Control
The Department incorrectly states that the MND does not identify potentially
contaminated sites within the project area. Page IS 20 specifically states:
"The site is not ident(fied as having been affected by hazardous materials in the state and
federal databases compiledfor this purpose. "
Comments 3) through 9) address requirements for conducting investigations and
remediating contaminated soils. Since it has been determined that no contamination has
occurred on the site, these comments do not apply.
Comments 10) and I I) refer to the need for an NPDES permit. The permit will be
required for the construction of the project. As stated in the Initial Study, the proposed
project will be required to undergo further environmental review when a project is
submitted to the City. The City will require compliance with NPDES standards as part of
its standard requirements. This will include best management practices to address
potential contamination.
Comment 12) addresses the site's potential use for agricultural purposes. The site has not
been in agriculture, as stated in the Initial Study, and therefore the requested investigation
does not apply.
Department of Transportation
CalTrans notes that the current right of way of the \-215 may be insufficient, and that the
project should be designed with a 40 foot landscaped buffer to allow for future right of
way acquisition; that the project should be responsible for the installation of the traffic
signal at the 1-215Palm intersection; and that the Traffic Study should be consistent with
the requirements of the Congestion Management Plan (CMP).
REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
OF THE CITY OF SAN BER."IARDINO
As stated in the IS, the Development Agreement is the project currently being considered
under CEQA. As required by CEQA, the Initial Study addresses the potential build out of
the project in concept, since it is known that the Development Agreement would result in
the development of a residential subdivision on the site.
The project has not been designed, and will require review and approval by the City in
the future. Project-specific issues will be considered by the City at that time, and it will
determine, through further environmental review, what impacts the project will have on
the circulation system, including the need for additional right of way and traffic signals.
The City will also require the preparation of a traffic impact analysis. The City regularly
requests the preparation of CMP-compliant traffic studies, and the City will require it at
the time the project is submitted for review.
Conclusion
Comments made by CalTrans and the DTSC generally affect the actual development of
the project site, not the implementation of the Disposition and Development Agreement.
None of the comments affect the conclusions of the Initial Study, or require that the
mitigation measures proposed be amended.

MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION (MND) FOR A DISPOSITION AND
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT RESULTING IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF 279
SING LE FAMILY HOMES, A 7.5 ACRE PARK, A 5.5 ACRE PARK, AND A 14 ACRE
SOCCER PARK ON 91.75 ACRES IN THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO
(SCH# 2006051052)
Dear Mr. Strange:
The Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) has received your submitted
Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) for the above-mentioned project. The following
project description is stated in your document: "The project consists of a Disposition and
Development Agreement (DDA) between Century Crowell Communities LP, and the
Redevelopment Agency of the City of San Bernardino (Agency) to convey 91.75 acres
to Century Crowell Communities LP, which will develop approximately 279 single family
lots, as well as lots for streets, a 7.5 acre park, a 5.5 acre park, and a 14 acre soccer
park through the preparation and approval of a Tract Map to be submitted to the City of
San Bernardino"
Based on the review of the submitted document, DTSC has comments as follow:
1) The MND should identify and determine whether current or historic uses in the
Project area may have resulted in any release of hazardous wastes/substances.
The MND states: "A Phase I Site Assessment was prepared for the proposed
project site, to identify potential hazardous materials on the site. The Phase I
study did not identify previous use of the property, or the location of hazardous
materials on the property.
@ Printed on Recycled Paper
Mr. Colin Strange
May 24, 2006
Page 2
2) The MND should identify any known or potentially contaminated sites within the
proposed Project area. For all identified sites, the MND should evaluate whether
conditions at the site may pose a threat to human health or the environment. A
Phase I Assessment may be sufficient to identify these sites. Following are the
databases of some of the regulatory agencies:
National Priorities List (NPL): A list maintained by the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (U.S.EPA).
Site Mitigation Program Property Database (formerly CalSites): A Database
primarily used by the California Department of Toxic Substances Control.
Resource Conservation and Recovery Information System (RCRIS): A database
of RCRA facilities that is maintained by U.S. EPA.
Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Information
System (CERCLlS): A database of CERCLA sites that is maintained by U.S.EPA.
. Solid Waste Information System (SWIS): A database provided by the California
Integrated Waste Management Board which consists of both open as well as
closed and inactive solid waste disposal facilities and transfer stations.
Leaking Underground Storage Tanks (LUST) / Spills, Leaks, Investigations and
Cleanups (SLlC): A list that is maintained by Regional Water Quality Control
Boards.
Local Counties and Cities maintain lists for hazardous substances cleanup sites
and leaking underground storage tanks.
The United States Army Corps of Engineers, 911 Wilshire Boulevard,
Los Angeles, California, 90017, (213) 452-3908, maintains a list of Formerly Used
Defense Sites (FUDS).
3) The MND should identify the mechanism to initiate any required investigation
and/or remediation for any site that may be contaminated, and the government
agency to provide appropriate regulatory oversight. If hazardous materials or
wastes were stored at the site, an environmental assessment should be
conducted to determine if a release has occurred. If so, further studies should
be carried out to delineate the nature and extent of the contamination, and the
potential threat to public health and/or the environment should be evaluated.
It may be necessary to determine if an expedited response action is required to
Mr. Colin Strange
May 24, 2006
Page 3
reduce existing or potential threats to public health or the environment. If no
immediate threat exists, the final remedy should be implemented in compliance
with state regulations, policies, and laws.
4) All environmental investigations, sampling and/or remediation for the site should
be conducted under a Workplan approved and overseen by a regulatory agency
that has jurisdiction to oversee hazardous substance cleanup. The findings of
any investigations, including Phase I and II investigations, should be summarized
in the document. All sampling results in which hazardous substances were found
should be clearly summarized in a table.
5) Proper investigation, sampling and remedial actions, if necessary, should be
conducted at the site prior to the new development or any construction, and
overseen by a regulatory agency.
6) If any property adjacent to the project site is contaminated with hazardous
chemicals, and if the proposed project is within 2,000 feet from a contaminated
site, except for a gas station, then the proposed development may fall within the
"Border Zone of a Contaminated Property." Appropriate precautions should be
taken prior to construction if the proposed project is within a "Border Zone
Property.
7) If building structures, asphalt or concrete-paved surface areas or other structures
are planned to be demolished, an investigation should be conducted for the
presence of lead-based paints or products, mercury, and asbestos containing
materials (ACMs). If lead-based paints or products, mercury or ACMs are
identified, proper precautions should be taken during demolition activities.
Additionally, the contaminants should be remediated in compliance with California
environmental regulations, policies, and laws.
8) The project construction may require soil excavation and soil filling in certain
areas. Appropriate sampling is required prior to disposal of the excavated soil.
If the soil is contaminated, properly dispose of it rather than placing it in another
location. Land Disposal Restrictions (LDRs) may be applicable to these soils.
Also, if the project proposes to import soil to backfill the areas excavated, proper
sampling should be conducted to make sure that the imported soil is free of
contamination.
9) Human health and the environment of sensitive receptors should be protected
during the construction or demolition activities. A study of the site, overseen by
the appropriate government agency, might have to be conducted to determine if
Mr. Colin Strange
May 24, 2006
Page 4
there are, have been, or will be, any releases of hazardous materials that may
pose a risk to human health or the environment.
10) If the project plans include discharging wastewater to a storm drain or surface
water, it may be necessary to obtain an NPOES permit from the overseeing
Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB).
11) If during construction/demolition in the Project area, soil and/or groundwater
contamination is suspected, construction/demolition in the area should cease
and appropriate health and safety procedures should be implemented. If it is
determined that contaminated soil and/or groundwater exist, the NO should
identify how any required investigation and/or remediation will be conducted,
and the appropriate government agency to provide regulatory oversight.
12) If the site was and/or is used for agricultural activities, onsite soils may contain
pesticide, herbicides and agricultural chemical residue. Proper investigation and
remedial actions, if necessary, should be conducted at the site prior to
construction of the project.
OTSC provides guidance for cleanup oversight through the Voluntary Cleanup Program
(VCP). For additional information on the VCP, please visit OTSC's web site at

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), has reviewed the notice of a
pending Development Agreement for a 279-lot subdivision on 91.75 acres located at
Little League Road and Interstate 215 (1-215).
We offer the following comments on the preliminary application materials that were
provided to us regarding this site:
. We note that 1-215 currently has 180 feet of right-of-way in the vicinity of this
development. Our Route Concept Report for 1-215 calls for an Ultimate
Transportation Facility of 10 lanes. Potential also exists for the need for auxiliary
lanes. For these reasons it appears that a total right-of-way width of 260 feet will be
needed. We request that the developer set aside a 40 foot wide landscape buffer along
the 1-215 frontage which could be purchased by the State for right-of-way use at a
later date.

. The preliminary traffic study for this development indicates a traffic signal at the
I-215/Palm Avenue Interchange will likely meet warrants at project opening and that
the applicant will be required to pay their fair share but not actually install the signal.
We feel this will not be adequate to meet the mobility needs of this area upon
completion of this development and the City will need to ensure that any newly
needed traffic signals are actually installed.
. The Traffic Impact Analysis should be consistent with Appendix C/Figure C-I per
San Bernardino County CMP, 2005 Update, "Preparation of SANBAG and Caltrans
TIA Reports." This guide is available on the internet at:

MITIGATION MONITORING AND REPORTING PROGRAM
FOR THE
DISPOSITIO~ AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEME1'IT BETWEEN CENTURY
CROWELL COMMUNITIES, LP AND THE REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF
THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO
This Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program has been prepared to implement the
mitigation measures outlined in the Environmental Assessment for the Disposition and
Development Agreement between Century Crowell Communities LP and the
Redevelopment Agency of the City of San Bernardino. This program has been prepared
in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the State and
City of San Bernardino CEQA Guidelines.
CEQA Section 21081.6 requires adoption of a monitoring and/or reporting program 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 program shall be
designed to ensure compliance during project implementation.
The Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program contains the following elements:
"---
1.
The mitigation measures are recorded with the action and procedure
necessary to ensure compliance. The program 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 will be taken and when, and to whom and when
compliance will be reported.
. The program contains a separate Mitigation Monitoring and Compliance
Record for each action. On each of these record sheets, the pertinent
actions and dates will be logged, and copies of permits, correspondence or
other data relevant will be retained by the City of San Bernardino.
The program is designed to be flexible. As monitoring progresses, changes
to compliance procedures may be necessary based upon recommendations
by those responsible for the program. If changes are made, new
monitoring compliance procedures and records will be developed and
incorporated into the program.

agrees that it shall be given a full opportunity under this Agreement to inspect and investigate every
aspect of the Agency Parcel during the Due Diligence Period. The Developer shall accept the delivery of

the completion) of all of its independent investigation of the condition of the Agency Parcel which the
Developer may believe to be indicated. The Developer hereby acknowledges that it shall rely solely upon
its own investigation of the Agency Parcel and its own review of such information and documentation as
it deems appropriate for the purpose of accepting the condition and possession of the Agency Parcel. The
Developer is not relying on any statement or representation by the Agency relating to the condition of the
Agency Parcel unless such statement or representation is specifically contained in this Agreement.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Agency makes no representations or warranties as to whether the
Agency Parcel presently comply with environmental laws or whether the Agency Parcel contains any
hazardous substance, as these terms are defined in Section 2.08(b) hereof. Furthermore, to the extent that
the Agency has provided the Developer with information relating to the condition of the Agency Parcel,
including information and reports prepared by or on behalf of the City of San Bernardino, the Agency
makes no representation or warranty with respect to the accuracy, completeness or methodology or
content of such reports or information.
Without limiting the above, except to the extent covered by an express representation or warranty
of the Agency set forth in this Agreement, the Developer, on behalf of itself and its successors and
assigns, waives and releases the Agency and its successors and assigns from any and all demands, claims,
legal or administrative proceedings, losses, liability, damages, penalties, fines, judgments, costs or
expenses whatsoever (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and costs), whether direct or indirect,
known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, arising from or relating to the physical condition of the
Agency Parcel or any law or regulation applicable thereto, including the presence or alleged presence of
harmful or hazardous substances in, under or about the Agency Parcel including, without limitation, any
claims under or on account of (i) CERCLA and similar statutes and any regulations promulgated
thereunder or (ii) any other environmental laws.
The Developer expressly waives any rights or benefits available to it with respect to the foregoing
release under any provision of applicable law which generally provides that the general release does not
extend to claims which the creditor does not know of suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time the
release is agreed to, which, if known to such creditor, would materially affect a settlement. By execution
of this Agreement, the Developer acknowledges that it fully understands the foregoing, and with this
understanding, nonetheless elects to and does assume all risk for claims known or unknown, described in
this Section 2.13 without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
The undersigned acknowledges that it has been advised by legal counsel and is familiar with the
provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as foliows:
"A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH
THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS
OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE,
WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, MUST HAVE MATERIALLY
AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR."

additional exceptions for matters shown on the Survey as hereinafter defined), the foregoing right of
review and approval shall also apply to said amendment or supplement (provided that the period for the
Developer to review such amendment or supplement shall be the later of the expiration of the Due

neither the City nor the Agency shall be responsible for the payment of the remaining prorated share for
which the Developer is not responsible for the costs thereof.

(z) Officers, employees, agents or representatives of the Agency and the City shall
have the right of reasonable access to the Site, without the payment of charges or fees, during normal
construction hours during the period of construction for the purposes of this Agreement including, but not
limited to, the inspection of the work being performed in constructing the residences on the Site. Such
officers, employees, agents or representatives of the Agency and/or the City shall be those persons who

the Agency and the City who enter the Site pursuant hereto shall identify themselves at the job site office
upon their entrance on to the Site and shall at all times be accompanied by a representative of the
Developer while on the Site; provided, however, that the Developer shall make a representative of the

property damage or liability arising out of the exercise by the Agency and/or the City of this right of
access, other than injury, property damage or liability relating to the negligence of the Developer or its
officers, agents or employees.

objected to such an inspection by the Agency or otherwise prevented the Agency from conducting such an
inspection.

ebb) Without limiting or modifying the application of Government Code Section
66462.5, the Agency agrees and shall exercise reasonable good faith efforts to cause the City and/or
SBCFCD to negotiate in good faith with the Developer concerning the acquisition and conveyance of any
property (including, without implied limitation, the SBCFCD Property) or property interests which are
reasonably required for or convenient to the construction of any off-site public improvements required for
the development of the Project or which render development of the Site more feasible or practical, e.g.,
acquisitions to square off boundaries. The parties recognize that nothing herein shall constitute an
obligation, commitment or representation that such properties will be acquired and conveyed by
condemnation, or at all. Except as may be otherwise provided by relevant provisions of the Government
Code, neither the City, the Agency, SBCFCD, nor the Developer shall have any obligation to acquire
and/or convey such property or property interests, or construct any public or private improvements
thereon unless and until they reduce their agreement to a writing which is duly approved by their
respective authorities.
Section 3.02. Developer's Mass Grading of Community Park Parcel. Contingent upon: (I) the
Agency's ability to obtain whatever interest it deems necessary for the development of the Community
Park from the SBCFCD, and (2) the negotiation and execution of a site entry and grading agreement
reasonably acceptable to both the Agency and the Developer, the Developer agrees to complete, or agrees
to cause, the mass grading of the Community Park Parcel in accordance with plans and specifications for
the Community Park prepared by the City at its sole cost and expense and reasonably acceptable to the
Developer. The Developer's mass grading of the Community Park Parcel shall occur concurrently with
its grading of the adjacent Site. The Agency and the Developer agree to cooperate to ensure that the
Community Park Parcel is ready for grading activities at the same time that the Developer is prepared to
begin grading of the adjacent portion of the Site. The Developer's mass grading of the Community Park
Parcel shall be at Developer's sole cost and expense; provided, however, that in the event that the
Developer elects not to construct a flood control retention basin in connection with its development of the
Site, the Agency shall, at its sole cost and expense, acquire such clean fill dirt as needed to complete the
mass rough grading of the Community Park Parcel in accordance with the plans and specifications
hereinabove described.
Section 3.03. Property Taxes and Assessments. The Developer shall pay prior to the delinquency
all real property taxes and assessments assessed and levied on or against the Site subsequent to the Close
of Escrow. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to prohibit the Developer from contesting the
validity or amounts of any tax assessment, encumbrance or lien, nor to limit the remedies available to the
Developer in respect thereto.
Section 3.04. Prohibition Against Transfer; Release of Site Lots Upon Sale to Ultimate
Purchaser.
(a) Except as otherwise permitted by Section 1.04, prior to the recordation of the
Certificate of Completion (defined in Section 3.07), the Developer shall not, without prior written
approval of the Agency, which may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, or except as
permitted by this Agreement, (i) assign or attempt to assign this Agreement or any right herein or (ii)
make any total or partial sale, transfer, conveyance, lease, leaseback, or assignment of the whole or any
part of the Site except for final sale or lease.

(b) In the absence of specific written agreement or approval by the Agency, no
unauthorized sale, transfer, conveyance, lease, leaseback or assignment of the Site shall be deemed to
relieve the Developer from any obligations under this Agreement.
(c) Developer is expressly prohibited from leasing or renting any of the Site Lots, or
any structure thereon, pending final sale to a New Home buyer.
(d) Effective as the date of final sale or lease (as applicable) of a Site Lot or portion of
the Site, any party owning or purchasing, leasing, or otherwise acquiring any interest in the Site or the
Project shall not (because of such ownership, purchase, lease or acquisition) incur any obligation or
liability under this Agreement, except that such party shall be bound by any covenants contained in the
Agency Grant Deed or other instrument of transfer. Neither the Agency nor any other person, after the
final sale or lease of a Site Lot or a portion of the Site, shall have any rights, remedies or controls that it
would have otherwise have or be entitled to exercise under this Agreement with respect to such Site Lot
or portion of the Site as a result of a default in or breach of any provision of this Agreement, and the
respective rights and obligations of the Agency and such third party shall be limited to those set forth in
the Agency Grant Deed.
Section 3.05. Security financing: Right of Holders.
---
(a) Notwithstanding any provision of Section 3.04 to the contrary, mortgages, deeds of
trust, or any other form of lien required for any reasonable method of financing the construction and
improvement of the Site are permitted before the recordation of Certificate of Completion (defined in
Section 3.07 of this Agreement). The Developer shall notify the Agency in writing in advance of any
mortgage, deed of trust, or other form of lien for financing if the Developer proposes to enter into the
same before the recordation of the Certificate of Completion. The Developer shall not enter into any such
conveyance for construction financing without the prior written approval of the Agency, which approval
the Agency shall grant if: (i) any such conveyance is given to a responsible financial or lending
institution including, without limitation, banks, savings and loan institutions, insurance companies, real
estate investment trusts, pension programs and the like, or other acceptable persons or entities for the
purpose of financing the construction of the New Homes on the Site, and (ii) such loan contains
customary construction lender disbursement controls.
(b) The Developer shall promptly notify the Agency of any mortgage, deed of trust or
other refinancing, encumbrance or lien that has been created or attached thereto prior to completion of the
construction of the improvements on the Site whether by voluntary act of the Developer or otherwise;
provided, however, that no notice of filing of preliminary notices or mechanic's liens need be given by the
Developer to the Agency prior to suit being filed to foreclose such mechanic's lien.
(c) The words "mortgage" and "deed of trust" as used herein shall be deemed to
include all other customary and appropriate modes of financing real estate construction and land
development. The Agency agrees to make such amendments regarding the rights of any lender as the
approved lender shall reasonably require.
(d) The holder of any mortgage, deed of trust or other security interest authorized by
this Agreement shall in no manner be obligated by the provisions of this Agreement to construct or
complete the improvement of the Site or to guarantee such construction or completion; provided however,
that each surety under the completion and payment surety bonds delivered by the Developer to the City

under the terms of any subdivision improvement agreement shall not, by the virtue of any term of this
Agreement, be deemed to be discharged from its obligation to the City as arises under such surety and the
subdivision improvement agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to permit or authorize
any such holder to devote the Site to any other use, or to construct any other improvement thereon, except
those uses or improvements provided for or authorized by this Agreement.
'-
(e) Whenever the Agency shall deliver any notice or demand to the Developer with
respect to any breach or default by the Developer, the Agency shall at the same time deliver to each
holder of record of any mortgage, deed of trust or other security interest authorized by this Agreement a
copy of such notice or demand. Each such holder shall (insofar as the rights of the Agency are concerned)
have the right, at its option, to commence the cure or remedy of any such default and to diligently and
continuously proceed with such cure or remedy, within sixty (60) calendar days after the receipt of the
notice; and to add the cost thereof to the security interest debt and the lien of its security interest. If such
default shall be a default which can only be remedied or cured by such holder upon obtaining possession,
such holder shall seek to obtain possession with diligence and continuity through a receiver or otherwise,
and shall remedy or cure such default within sixty (60) calendar days after obtaining possession; provided
that in the case of a default which cannot with diligence be remedied or cured, or the remedy or cure of
which cannot be commenced, within such sixty (60) calendar day period, such holder shall have such
additional time as is reasonably necessary to remedy or cure such default of the Developer. Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to permit or authorize such holder to undertake or continue
the construction or completion of the improvements (beyond the extent necessary to conserve or protect
the improvements or construction already made) without first having expressly assumed the Developer's
obligations by written agreement satisfactory to the Agency. The holder in that event must agree to
complete, in the manner provided in this Agreement, the improvements to which the lien or title of such
holder relates and must submit evidence satisfactory to the Agency that it has the qualifications and
financial responsibility necessary to perform such obligations. Any such holder completing such
improvements in accordance herewith shall be entitled, upon written request made to the Agency, to be
issued a Certificate of Completion by the Agency.
(f) In any case where, one hundred eighty (180) calendar days after default by the
Developer under the terms of a security interest authorized by this Agreement, the holder of any such
mortgage, deed of trust or other security interest creating a lien or encumbrance upon the Site or any
portion thereof has not exercised the option to construct the applicable portions of the Site, or has
exercised the option but has not proceeded diligently and continuously with the completion of the
improvements to the Site, then in such event, the Agency may purchase the mortgage, deed of trust or
other security interest by payment to the holder of the amount of the unpaid debt, including principal,
accrued and unpaid interest, late charges, costs, expenses and other amounts payable to the holder by the
Developer under the loan documents between holder and the Developer. If the ownership of the Site has
vested in the holder, the Agency, if it so desires, shall be entitled to a conveyance from the holder to the
Agency upon payment to the holder of an amount equal to the sum of the following:
I. The unpaid mortgage, deed of trust or other security interest debt, including
principal, accrued and unpaid interest, late charges, costs, expenses and other
amounts payable to the holder by the Developer under the loan documents between
the holder and the Developer, at the time title became vested in the holder (less all
appropriate credits, including those resulting from collection and application of
rentals and other income received during foreclosure proceedings).

2. All expenses, if any. incurred by the holder with respect to foreclosure.
""-_~m
3.
The net expenses, if any (exclusive of general overhead), incurred by the holder as
a direct result of the subsequent ownership or management of the Site, such as
insurance premiums and real estate taxes.
4. The cost of any improvements made by such holder.
5. An amount equivalent to the interest that would have accrued on the aggregate on
such amounts had all such amounts become part of the mortgage or deed of trust
debt and such debt had continued in existence to the date of payment by the
Agency.
6. After expiration of the aforesaid one hundred eighty (180) calendar day period, the
holder of any mortgage, deed of trust or other security affected by the option
created by this Section, may demand, in writing, that the Agency act pursuant to the
option granted hereby. If the Agency fails to exercise the right herein granted
within sixty (60) calendar days from the date of such written demand, the Agency
shall be conclusively deemed to have waived such right of purchase of the
applicable portion of the Site or the mortgage, deed of trust or other security
interest.
(g) In the event of a default or breach by the Developer of a mortgage, deed of trust or
other security interest with respect to the Site (or any portion thereof) prior to the issuance of the
Certificate of Completion, and the holder has not exercised its option to complete the development, the
'- Agency may cure the default but is under no obligation to do so prior to completion of any foreclosure. In
such event, the Agency shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Developer of all costs and expenses
incurred by the Agency in curing the default. The Agency shall also be deemed to have a lien of the
Agency as may arise under this Section 3.05(g) upon the Site (or any portion thereof) to the extent of such
costs and disbursements. Any such lien shall be subordinate and subject to mortgages, deeds of trust or
other security instruments executed by the Developer for the purpose of obtaining the funds to construct
and improve the Site as authorized herein.
Section 3.06. Right of the Agencv to Satisfv Other Liens on the Site after Convevance of Title.
After the conveyance of title to the Site by the Agency to the Developer and prior to the recordation of the
Certificate of Completion (defined in Section 3.07 of this Agreement), and after the Developer has had a
reasonable time to challenge, cure or satisfy any unauthorized liens or encumbrances on the Site, the
Agency shall after sixty (60) calendar days prior written notice to the Developer have the right to satisfy
any such liens or encumbrances; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall require the
Developer to payor make provisions for the payment of any tax, assessment, lien or charge so long as the
Developer in good faith shall contest the validity or amount thereof, and so long as such delay in payment
shall not subject the Site or any portion thereof, to forfeiture or sale.
Section 3.07. Certificate of Como let ion. Following the written request therefore by the Developer
and the completion of the Project, excluding minor "punch-list" items to be completed by the Developer,
the Agency shall furnish the Developer with a Certificate of Completion, substantially in the form set
forth in Exhibit F attached hereto.
(a) The Agency shall not unreasonably withhold the issuance of the Certificate of
Completion. A Certificate of Completion shall be, and shall so state, that it is a conclusive determination

of satisfactory completion of all of the obligations of this Agreement with respect to the improvement of
the Project. After the recordation of the Certificate of Completion, any party then owning or thereafter
purchasing, leasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in the Site or Project shall not (because of such
ownership, purchase, lease or acquisition) incur any obligation or liability under this Agreement, except
that such party shall be bound by any covenants contained in the Agency Grant Deed or other instrument
of transfer. Neither the Agency nor any other person, after the recordation of the Certificate of
Completion, shall have any rights, remedies or controls that it would otherwise have or be entitled to
exercise under this Agreement with respect to the Site or Project as a result of a default in or breach of
any provision of this Agreement, and the respective rights and obligations of the parties shall be limited to
those set forth in the Agency Grant Deed.
(b) Any Certificate of Completion shall be in such form as to permit it to be recorded
in the Recorder's Office of San Bernardino County.
(c) If the Agency refuses or fails to furnish the Certificate of Completion after written
request from the Developer, the Agency shall, within fifteen (I 5) calendar days after the written request or
within three (3) business days after the next regular meeting of the Agency, whichever date occurs later,
provide to the Developer a wrinen statement sening forth the reasons with respect to the Agency's refusal
or failure to furnish the Certificate of Completion. The statement shall also contain the Agency's opinion
of the action the Developer must take to obtain the Certificate of Completion. If the reason for such
refusal is confined to the immediate unavailability of specific items or materials for construction or
landscaping at a price reasonably acceptable to the Developer or other minor "punch-list" items, the
Agency may issue its Certificate of Completion upon the posting of a bond or irrevocable letter of credit,
reasonably approved as to form and substance by the Agency counsel and obtained by the Developer in an
amount representing a fair value of the work not yet completed as reasonably determined by the Agency.
If the Agency shall have failed to provide such written statement within the foregoing period, the
Developer shall be deemed conclusively and without further action of the Agency to have satisfied the
requirements of this Agreement with respect to the Site and Project as if a Certificate of Completion had
been issued therefor.
(d) A Certificate of Completion shall not constitute evidence of compliance with or
satisfaction of any obligation of the Developer to any holder of a mortgage, or any insurer of a mortgage
securing money loaned to finance the improvements described herein, or any part thereof. A Certificate
of Completion shall not be deemed to constitute a notice of completion as referred to in Section 3093 of
the California Civil Code, nor shall it act to terminate the continuing covenants or conditions subsequent
contained in the Agency Grant Deed.

assumptions of any of them which may have provided a basis for entering into this Agreement and which
occur at any time after the execution of this Agreement, are not force majeure events and do not provide
any party with grounds for asserting the existence of a delay in the performance of any covenant or
undertaking which may arise under this Agreement. Each party expressly assumes the risk that changes
in general economic conditions or changes in such economic assumptions relating to the terms and
covenants of this Agreement could impose an inconvenience or hardship on the continued performance of
such party under this Agreement, but that such inconvenience or hardship is not a force majeure event and
does not excuse the performance by such party of its obligations under this Agreement.

times at the Agency's cost and expense to inspect the books and records of the Developer pertaining to the
Site, and/or the development thereof, as necessary for the Agency, in its reasonable discretion, to enforce

This phase of the Project shall coincide with the construction of flood control/drainage improvements for
the entire Project. The mass grading operation shall incorporate the redistribution of on-site and adjacent
soils and aggregate to economize on costs. mobilization and efficiency of the overall operation. A portion
of the grading operation shall consist of on-site processing of materials for use in grading, roadway base

excavation and movement of upwards of 3,000,000 cubic yards (c.y.)' of soil material and aggregate.
Materials removed/redistributed as a result of flood control and other public improvements may be
suitable, subject to soils engineer recommendations, for placement within the residential portion of the
proposed subdivision.
In addition to those improvements mentioned above, it is anticipated that certain 'off-site' improvements
e.g. secondary access roadway, back bone utilities and flood control improvements, will be extended
beyond the project boundaries. These improvements will require the participation of adjacent property
owners and several governmental agencies.

Attached pIease find revised pages 45 and 46 to the DDA for the above-referenced Agenda
Item. Only Section 6.10 Indemnification, has been revised as shown on the attached insert, so that
the Developer is now required to also indemnify the City and the Agency if anyone challenges the
Agency's approval and execution of the DDA or if anyone challenges the City's adoption of the
Resolution relating to the Agency's approval and execution of the DDA
Previous drafts of the DDA, as recently as June 29,2005, included the following Subsection
(c) to Section 2.13:
"Section 2.13 Review and ADoroval of Condition of Title bv the
Develooer.
(c) The Developer acknowledges that the Site is currently subject to
the terms and requirements of that certain "SettIement Agreement and
Release" in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J. Developer
acknowledges that it shall take titIe to the Site subject to the terms of
the Settlement Agreement and Release."

"J"""ly ~/;l.O~
Exhibit J was the I989 Settlement Agreement to the case: Cable Lake v. Citv of San
Bernardino, San Bernardino County Superior Court Case No. 239649. This Settlement Agreement
(copy attached), between the City of San Bernardino and A W Associates No. I, the successor in
interest to CabIe Lake & Associates, required the subject property to be developed with single family
homes with lots at a minimum of IO,800 square feet in size. That previous Exhibit J and the reference
in Section 2.13 to the Settlement Agreement has now been deleted in the DDA pending before the
Council and Commission.
We respectfully request that the Council and Commission adopt the recommended motions
on the Council Meeting Agenda with the revised pages 45 and 46 included in the DDA so that the
City and Agency are adequately protected if their actions are challenged in Court. The likelihood of
such a legal challenge is unknown given that AW Associates No. I now appears to be a dissolved
business entity, with the Agency now holding title to the subject property and given that the
Settlement Agreement specifically excludes third party beneficiaries at Section I O. In any event, the
City and the Agency should be protected by the language added to Section 6. IO Indemnification, in
the DDA.
