CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
In 1994 and in 1995, the Common Council adopted Development Code Amendments regarding
the locations where new Adult Businesses are permitted to locate in the City. Currently, new
adult businesses are regulated by Development Code Section 19.06.030(2)(A), which permits
them subject to a Conditional Use Permit in the CH, Commercial Heavy, and IL, Industrial
Light, General Plan land use districts and provided that they are not established within 2,000 feet
of another Adult Business nor within 1,000 feet of any religious institution which received
development approval before December 19, 1994 nor within 1,000 feet of any school, public
park, or any property designated or used for residential purposes.
Recently, several cities including Victorville, Banning, Pasadena and san Bernardino have been
sued in court on challenges to their Adult Business ordinances. The City Attorney's Office and
the Department of Planning and Building Services jointly request that the Mayor and Common
Council direct staff to review the General Plan and the Development Code provisions regulating
adult businesses and propose revisions if necessary.
