Synopsis of Previous Council Action:
May 3, 1991 - The Mayor and Council adopted Ordinance 782 approving a comprehensive
Development Code Update.
November 1, 2005 - The Mayor and Council adopted the General Plan Update.
Background:
In an effort to better address changing market demands it is necessary for the City to update its
Development Code. The last comprehensive update was in 1991. The Department has made
several piecemeal efforts to make modifications; however, a comprehensive update is needed.
The Development Code is the regulatory tool that outlines how development occurs. The code is
required to implement the vision of the City. Thus, a new code would incorporate contemporary
planning and business practices,procedures, set objective criteria for new development and
streamline the entitlement and permit process while also encouraging economic development.
A comprehensive Development Code update will allow the Department to consolidate zoning
categories to reflect geographic areas of the City.
• There are currently eleven(11) commercial zones located in the City. Possible new
consolidated commercial zones:
o Freeway Commercial -Areas along the 10, 210, and 215 freeways.
0 Downtown Commercial - Parts of the City located near City Hall.

0 Corridor Commercial - Major streets in the city like Waterman, Highland, and
Baseline.
• Currently there are nine (9)residential zones. The goal of the update is to consolidate into
four possible new residential zones:
o Foothill Residential Communities -Housing located up against the foothills.
0 Downtown Residential Communities -Housing located near City Hall.
0 Urban/Metropolitan/City/Housing- Homes located outside the downtown area.
0 University Housing- Homes located near Cal State San Bernardino.
• The City has four industrial zones, the objective is to consolidate these onto two new
industrial zones:
o Airport Industrial - Industrial businesses located near the airport.
0 Industrial - Industrial business located in the City outside of the airport borders.
Keeping with the objective to streamline and simplify the permitting process the development
code update will also include:
• New updated definitions.
• Broader categories of uses.
A budget of$157,500 in Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) funds has been
allocated for long range planning and streamlining the development process. This was approved
at the April 7, 2014 Mayor and Common Council Meeting.
