CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCEL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT: Initiation of a General Plan Amendment
Mayor and Common Council Meeting of September 6, 1994
REQUEST AND LOCATION
The request is for the Mayor and Common Council to direct staff to initiate a General Plan
Amendment to consider the CH, Commercial Heavy or IL, Industrial Light land use designation
for a portion of the west side of Cajon Boulevard between the freeway and California Street.
The site is currently designated CG-1, Commercial General. North of the area, along Cajon
Boulevard, is designated CH, Commercial Heavy.
BACKGROUND
The area in question lies on the south side of Cajon Boulevard between Medical Center Drive
and California Street and consists of numerous parcels, primarily vacant. Two of the parcels
are developed with industrial warehouse buildings.
The warehouse buildings are not really designed for commercial uses, although they are not
precluded from being used for commercial uses. The buildings are nonconforming. If the
current industrial uses of these buildings cease for a period of 6 months, the buildings may only
be reused for commercial uses consistent with the CG-1 land use designation. This has already
occurred in the case of one of the buildings. In addition, the buildings and sites need a
considerable amount of work to meet current code requirements, regardless of use.
I have received inquiries from interested parties as to the likelihood of purchasing properties in
the area and rehabilitating the buildings for industrial uses.
COST
Planning staff has estimated that it will cost the City approximately $3,000 to process the
General Plan Amendment. This cost includes staff time and Public Noticing costs. It is further
estimated that it will take approximately 4 months for staff to complete the amendment once
work is commenced.
