Public Hearings to be Heard at 4:00 p.m. A. Community Development RES -2011-320 A Resolution of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino Adopting General Plan Amendment No. 09-02 to Change the Land Use Designation from Residential Suburban (RS) to Commercial General (CG -1) on One Acre and Approving Conditional Use Permit No. 09-09 to Establish a Neighborhood Grocery Store at 1111 West 9th Street. Mayor/Chairman Morris opened the hearing. Margo Wheeler, Director of Community Development, stated that this item requires a general plan amendment to change the land use designation on this property and there is an accompanying conditional use permit. A structure was established and operated on this property as a bakery from 1953 to 2008. She stated that it has been closed since 2008 and to reestablish it would require a general plan amendment to establish the proper land use and zoning. At the same time the applicant wants to place a neighborhood grocery store in this location. Ms. Wheeler stated that the matter was brought before the Planning Commission on November 16, 2011, at which time it obtained a unanimous recommendation of approval. Tulsi Savani, applicant, answered questions posed by the Council regarding the locations and success of their stores, the timeline for completion, and the number of employees. Mayor and Common Council ojthe City ojSan Bernardino Page 6 Printed 2/2120/1 Joint Regular Meeting Minutes December 19, 2011 Council Member/Commissioner McCammack questioned why revocation language had not been included in the CUP and why they were being allowed to spot zone. Ms. Wheeler stated that revocation language could certainly be added as a condition. In answer to Ms. McCammack's second question, she stated that the analysis of the project would have been substantially different had this been a residential structure, which the applicants want to convert to a commercial use within an existing neighborhood; however, because the City has an existing legally -established commercial structure, staff believes they can make a favorable recommendation. Council Member/Commissioner McCammck requested that the revocation language be added as a condition of approval. Motion: Close hearing and adopt Resolution adding the following revocation language as a Condition of Approval: Any failure to maintain and operate the use pursuant to this approval and conditions herein is subject to revocation pursuant to San Bernardino Municipal Code Section 19.36.100. RESULT: MOVER: SECONDER: AYES: ADOPTED [UNANIMOUS] Virginia Marquez, Council Member, Ward 1 Fred Shorett, Council Member, Ward 4 Marquez, Jenkins, Brinker, Shorett, Kelley, Johnson, McCammack B. Community Development An Ordinance of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino Repealing Chapter 17.07 and Amending Chapter 19.28 of the Municipal Code to Update Plan Review Procedures and Water Conservation Standards. (FIRST READING) Mayor/Chairman Morris opened the hearing. Margo Wheeler, Director of Community Development, stated that this item includes the relocation of the water efficient landscape ordinance that was adopted by the Mayor and Common Council in 2010 from Chapter 17 to Chapter 19 so that it is within the Development Code and more easily accessible for the public and staff. They also changed some administrative and ministerial language with regard to plan check responsibilities and inspection responsibilities for landscape plans. She stated that that is currently divided between Parks and Recreation and Public Works and the recommendation is to move that into Community Development. Code Enforcement staff now does the annual inspections of the approved discretionary projects to ensure the landscaping is maintained appropriately, and they also have construction inspectors in the Community Development Department that handle this through the building permit process and building inspections. This item went to the Planning Commission on November 16, and it was unanimously recommended for approval. Mayor and Common Council ojthe City of San Bernardino Page 7 Printed 1/1/1012 Joint Regular Meeting Minutes December 19, 2011 Council Member/Commissioner McCammack asked if all of the underlined language of Section 19.28.110 is the exact same language that was originally approved. Ms. Wheeler answered in the affirmative. Council Member/Commissioner Kelley asked if this would help resolve some of the issues regarding maintenance deficiencies of existing properties. Ms. Wheeler stated that having the requirements in one chapter will help staff and the business community, and it is part of their ongoing training of Planning and Code Enforcement staff. Motion: Close hearing and lay over Ordinance for final adoption. RESULT: FIRST READING [UNANIMOUS] Next: 1/9/2012 1:30 PM MOVER: Virginia Marquez, Council Member, Ward 1 SECONDER: Fred Shorett, Council Member, Ward 4 I AYES: Marquez, Jenkins, Brinker, Shorett, Kelley, Johnson, McCammack C. Police RES -2011-321 Resolution of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino Authorizing the Obligation and Expenditure of the Allocated Citizens Option for Public Safety (COPS Option) Monies for FY 2011-12 to Supplement Front -Line Law Enforcement Services. Mayor/Chairman Morris opened the hearing. Chief Handy stated that they have received this grant in the past and they were not anticipating receiving it this year; however, they were notified just recently that they were able to receive it. Mayor/Chairman Morris stated that it covers a substantial portion of the budgetary requirements of four officers. He asked Chief Handy if the balance of the requirements to fund those officers was contained in the budget. Chief Handy answered in the affirmative. Council Member/Commissioner McCammack stated that this must be an added number to the budget if they were not expecting to receive it this year. Terrance Beamon, Deputy Director/Budget Manager, stated that Assembly Bills 118 and 89 were passed when the FY 2011/12 budget was adopted and $725,000 of City of San Bernardino motor vehicle license fee revenue money was taken away. As a result, these funds were directed into this public safety grant, so the net difference is about $300,000. Mayor and Common Council ofthe City of San Bernardino Page 8 Printed 21212012 Joint Regular Meeting Minutes December 19, 2011 There was money that was taken away through the balance of the budget at the last minute and in place of that these funds were then allocated to cities throughout the state. Council Member/Commissioner McCammack stated that if we did not have the funds for four officers then do we still have the four officers or why aren't those new positions? Chief Handy stated that when the Council approved the tow option contract last spring, the additional revenues were to be put towards retaining police officer positions and that money was approximately $300,000 that was put to retain those positions in the event they did not get that grant. Now that they got that grant, there should be some more money in there that will help them with their budget, but right now they are also short in a couple of other areas. Council Member/Commissioner Brinker stated that when this went through the Grants Committee, Councilman Kelley made it very clear that as additional money becomes available, their priority would be to fill additional positions if possible. He stated that he did understand that that is not the situation here. There wasn't an extra $400,000 to hire new people --there were losses in other categories. He wanted his colleagues to know that this whole conversation did take place at the committee level and they are trying to be diligent in making sure that they are maximizing and stretching those dollars, and if there is money available, that's what they'll be pushing for. City Manager McNeely stated that they went into the year looking at the possibility of losing positions and with the tow franchise they thought that with that additional revenue they would be able to add some officers back in the Police Department. If we do get additional money, the priority will be to go forward and restore some of the positions that have been cut. Council Member/Commissioner Kelley asked if staff could let them know what kind of grants staff is looking at. City Manager McNeely stated that their new CDBG person, Brandon Mims, has been able to identify some additional grants that are out there that we are going to be focusing on and some of those relate to public safety. He stated that he would provide an updated report to the Council. Motion: Close hearing and authorize the obligation and expenditure of the allocated Citizen's Option for Public Safety Monies in the amount of $400,553. All expenditures will be used to supplement front-line law enforcement services as defined in AB3229 and as outlined in the COPS Option expenditure plan (Exhibit "A"); and authorize the Director of Finance to amend the adopted FY 2011/12 Police budget by increasing the Patrol budget grant by $400,533.

McCammack, Council Member, Ward 7 AYES: Marquez, Jenkins, Brinker, Shorett, Kelley, Johnson, McCammack D. Public Works Resolution of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino Ordering the Vacation of a Portion of Spruce Street Between Mt. Vernon Avenue and a North-South Alley Approximately 150 Feet West of Mt. Vernon Avenue and Reserving Utility Easements Therein. Mayor/Chairman Morris opened the hearing. Henry Empeno, Senior Deputy City Attorney, read and submitted into the record a copy of the rejection memorandum from the City Attorney's office that was placed on Minute Traq, dated December 15, 2011. He stated that this is the first time that a street vacation has been proposed of a through © street, and it is being proposed to benefit a private property owner. He stated that he has never seen a situation like this where the proposed development that would occupy the vacation and the abutting property has not even been proposed to this body -there is no proposal for development that would utilize this street vacation -so in that respect it is also premature. More importantly, state law requires that the City make the findings that this street is unnecessary for present or prospective public use, and based upon the information that has been provided, that finding could not be made. Nadeem Majaj, Director of Public Works, stated that they have done some traffic evaluations of the area and, at the time, they realized there are other streets that do provide access out of the area such as Herrington and Pico Street. Staff determined that Spruce Street connecting to Mt. Vernon is a convenience issue and not a necessity. He stated that they did not evaluate the traffic conditions on Sunday during church services, so in some ways it was not a complete evaluation. The determination of going forward, or amending the motion, is up to the Council. If the Council would like staff to go back and take another look at the traffic circulation issues and perhaps do some comparisons with closure and without closure, they could do that. Council Member/Commissioner Brinker stated that it was clear that they need to send this back to staff for further review, and there should be more outreach and discussions with the parishioners of the church. Council Member/Commissioner Marquez stated that Pico and Herrington Streets would j be hugely impacted by the proposed vacation. The parishioners don't want to be bothered with a traffic study -they want things left alone. She stated that she would not support this item. Mayor and Common Council arthe City of San Bernardino Page 10 Printed 2/2/20/2 Joint Regular Meeting Minutes December 19, 2011 Council Member/Commissioner Marquez made a motion, seconded by Council Member/ Commissioner Kelley, to close the hearing and disapprove the resolution to vacate a portion of Spruce Street. No vote was taken. Pursuant to Resolution No. 2000-279, Assistant City Clerk Ochiqui administered an oath to the following individuals, who spoke in opposition to the proposed vacation, that they would provide true and honest testimony: Public Comments: Reverend Jorge Luis Rodriguez, San Bernardino, CA; Elizabeth Rocha, San Bernardino, CA; Amelia Lopez, San Bernardino, CA; Joe Ramirez, San Bernardino, CA; Sandra L. Martinez, San Bernardino, CA; Council Member/Commissioner McCammack stated that they should never sell off a taxpayer asset to help a private business. She stated that if her memory served her correctly, the Planning Department set conditions on the church to provide the exit onto Spruce Street during the redesign of the parking lot, and they based that on the availability to exit onto Pico through Herrington and Spruce. By closing Spruce they would be contradicting their own original conditions of approval. © Council Member/Commissioner McCammack made a substitute motion, seconded by Council Member/Commissioner Brinker, to table the item; however, the motion was subsequently recalled. Council Member/Commissioner Johnson stated that with no development, it didn't make sense to vacate the street. City Attorney Penman stated that there was a legal technical issue with the wording of the motion that needed to be addressed. Tabling is temporary, but a motion to disapprove is permanent. Mr. Empefto stated that if it was the Council's desire to deny the proposal he recommended that they not table it as stated. If the Council would make a finding that the street is necessary for present and prospective public use, and based on the testimony provided the Council disapproves the proposed Resolution, that decision would be final and the proposal could not go forward again. He stated that the Economic Development Corporation could reapply after one year with another proposal to vacate the street, but they would have to bring it back as a new application. Motion: Close hearing; disapprove the resolution; and make findings that Spruce Street is necessary for present and prospective public use.
