The applicant requests approval to subdivide 12.3 aacres into 6 parcels for single-family development. The subject property is located at the northern terminus of Sepulveda Avenue. 2. The subject tract map was filed concurrently with Variance No. 85-3 which was approved by the Planning Commission on May 8, 1985. The action taken on the variance was appealed to the Mayor and Common Counci land is scheduled for re-heari ng by the Counci 1 on July 15, 1985. The variance filed by the applicant, requests that San Bernar- dino Municipal Code Section 18.40.130 be waived to allow a cul-de-sac wi th a length in excess of 500 feet as requi red by Code. Addi ti ona lly, the applicant requests approval to subdivide property within the High Fi re Hazard Zone wi th only one means of dedi cated and improved access. Approval of the Tentative Tract map as designed is predicated upon approval of Variance No. 85-3, therefore the final Council action taken on the variance will determine the appropriate action for the Tract map. In an attempt to expedite matters. staff will present an analysis of the tract map and a preliminary recommendation through this staff report. 3. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the City of San Bernardino zoning designation of R-1-7200 and the General Plan designation of Residential 0-3 dwelling units per acre. 4. Surrounding zoning designations includes: R-1-7200 to the north, south and west; R-1-20,aoO to the east. Surrounding General Plan designa- ti ons i ncl ude: Resi denti a 1 0-3 dwe 11 i ng uni ts per acre to the north, east and west; and Residential 4-7 dwelling units per acre to the south. 5. The subject property is currently vacant. Surrounding land uses inclu- de: single-family residential to the south; a dwelling unit and City Water tank to the north; vacant property to the east and scattered single-family dwellings to the west. 6. Tentative Tract No. 12759 proposes to subdivide the 12.3 acres into 6 parcels ranging in size from .75 to 2.6 acres. Single family dwellings will be individually constructed on each lot as it is purchased. The subject property is zoned R-1-7200, which would permit up to 72 lots. Due to the limited access and topography of the site, 6 lots is a reasonable subdivision of the property and exceeds the requirements of the R-1 zone as established through Title 19 of the San Bernardino Municipal Code. Each of the six parcels shows a grading limit line withi n whi ch the pad area for each dwe 11i ng uni t wi II be confi ned. The boundaries of the grading are limited to the bluff areas within the lots to avoid,the placement of homes within any natural drainage courses. \. .

Access to the property is provided via Sepulveda Avenue which termin- ates at the southwest corner of the site. Subject to approval of Variance No. 85-3, a cul-de-sac will extend 640 feet into the property from Sepulveda Avenue. The proposed cul-de-sac would generally follow the road bed created and later abandoned by the rai l-road. Access to the i ndi vi dua 1 parcels and uni ts wi II be provi ded from dri veways off the cul-de-sac. The longest driveway on lot 6 will extend approxima- tely 460 feet easterly from the bulb of the cul-de-sac. This par- ticular driveway will be constructed to accomodate water and have adequate material, width and turn-around to handle large emergency vehicles. -, The subject property is wi thi n a Hi gh Fi re Hazard Area, however secon- dary access will not be proveded. Subject to approval of Variance No. 85-3, the requi rement of secondary access wi 11 be wai ved. The appli- cant has attempted through various means to secure secondary access to the site. However, due to existing surrounding development and physi- cal constraints, the options for secondary access have been eliminated. To the northwest an existing single-family dwelling and a City of San Bernardino Water tank blocks access. The existing single-family sub- division to the south was developed with dwelling units constructed around three cul-de-sacs which precludes an access road. Finally to the southeast, access is prohibited on to the State Highway, Waterman Canyon Road. Access onto Waterman Canyon Road can only be potentially obtained through a request generated by the City. 8. The 11.3 acre parcel located at the eastern boundary of the subject site is presently landlocked without access easements or roadways. The property owner had intended to secure access through the dedication and improvement of a road extendi ng from Sepulveda Avenue through the pro- perty involved in Tract No. 12759 and into the property. Or, through the attainment, grading and improvement of a parcel, under seperate ownership located at the northern terminus of Park Lane and extending 135 feet to the land locked parcel. Thi s parcel is unbui 1 dab 1 e wi th a width of 30 feet and irregular terrain. The property owner of this parcel has indicated to the owner of Tract No. 12759, that an access easement could be granted on this parcel. Tentative Tract No. 12759 as proposed by the applicant would extend the road from Sepul veda Avenue approxi mate ly 1/2 way th rough the parcel and end in a cul-de-sac. This proposal would elimlnate the possibility of the future extension of the road into the adjoining parcel to the east. In order to provide for the future access needs of the parcel, a con- dition of approval is attached to Tract No. 12759 requiring a 24' offer of dedication to the City extending from the bulb of the cul-de-sac to the east property line. An offer of dedication will be made to the City which can be exercised by the City if the need should arise. \. -4) 0 ( .cITY OF.

Nn 1?7~Q AGENDA ITEM (, HEARING DATE 7./l(,/R~ PAGE At that time, secondary access could be provided for both properties through the attainment and improvement of Parcel No. 11 extending from Park lane to the south property line of the land locked parcel. This access road way could be joi ned wi th the road extending from Sepul veda Avenue to provide a loop roadway through both parcels. g. The subject property and surrounding properties are located at the base of the foothills Which is subject to water and debris flows from the gullies of the hillsides. Historically, the properties on the west side of Sepulveda Avenue and to the south of the subject tract homes have been subject to severe sheet and mud flows. Drainage on the site of the tract map wi 11 be handled through the collection of water on site into catch basins and the cul-de-sac which will carry the water to Sepulveda Avenue Where it will be taken underground into the City's existing storm drains. On site drainage easements wi II be dedi cated to the Ci ty for ownershi p and mai ntenance. In the opinion of the City Engineering Department, the drainage impro- vements proposed by the app 1 i cant on the site of the map wi 11 improve the existing drainage situation for the neighborhood. ; ( Several off-site improvements could also be completed which would further reduce the flooding and mud flow problems in the area. As recommended by the City Engineer, these improvements primarily involve upgrading and enlarging the catch basins located on the west side of Sepulveda Avenue north of 54th Street. The applicant has agreed, although these drainage facilities are not under his ownership nor responsibility, to make Whatever improvements are deemed necessary by the City Engineer. 10. The property owners in the subdivision to the south and some property owners along Sepulveda have voiced opposition to the approval of Tentative Tract No. 12759 and the associated Variance No. 85-3. The primary point of concern raised by the residents is the effect of the subdivision and future construction on the existing drainage and mud problems in the area. As mentioned above, the Director of Public Works and Engineering has indicated that the problems will be reduced due to the improvements required by the subdivision and could be alleviated with additional improvements off-site. A ietter in support of the subdivision signed by 5 property owners residing in the subdivision to the south has also been received. 11. Fire protection will be provided to the six parcels through the imple- mentation of a mitigation plan Which has been developed for properties within High Fire Hazard Areas.

Additionally, the City Water Department has established specific con- ditions for Tract No. 12751 which will serve to increase the water pressure available to each dwelling. These Water Department conditions will insure adequate fire flow and water pressure. 12. A preliminary Geology Report has been submitted in conjunction with Tract No. 12759. The report indicated that no faults were identified on the subject property. The report has been reviewed and approved by the City Geologist. 13. Grading on the site will be a balanced operation where 15,000 cubic yards of cut wi 11 provide 15,000 cubic yards of fill. All graded slo- pes will be planted and maintained by the property owners of each indi- vi dual lot.

IIMUGRAVE, Ilir. o~ rubl ic WOI'ks/City Engincer Junc 27, 1985 / File No. Tn 12759 ,/ /10:'> From Approved Date A catch basin, approximately 14' in length, has been constructed along the west side of Sepulveda Avenue, just north of 54th Street. This basin was built with an 8-inch high opening, in lieu of our nOI'mal 12 inch. The result is that the majority of storm water flows by the basin. Also, the opening is prone to becoming clogged with debris. One possible improvement is to remove the 4' wide concrete gutter adjacent to the basin, and reconstruct it so as to provide a 14-inch high opening. This would divert considerably more of the storm water flow to the basin. A preliminary estimate of cost for removing the present gutter, and construc- ting a new gutter, is $1,500. A catch basin has also been constructed in the west gutter, in front of the second house north of 54th Street. This basin has a grate approximately 18" X 36". Due to the steep slope of Sepulveda Avenue, this basin is ineffective. " Another i:nprovemer,t would be to remove this basin, and construct a standard side opening catch basin north of the driveway approach to this house. The size of this basin would be limited by the capacity of the approximate 18- inch pipe to the existing basin. Some curb and gutter ~nd sidewalk would need to be constructed, since only asphalt concrete dike exists north of this driveway approach. This basin wouJd handle some of the storm water in Sepulveda Avenue, and help prevent water from flowing on to this parcel by ~he driveway approach. The preliminary estimate of cost for this work is $4,000. A slotted standpipe has been installed on the end of the pipe culvert draining the debris basin east of Sepulveda Avenue, north of the railway line. This standpipe was installed to help prevent the culvert from becoming clogged with mud and debris. A second standpipe could be provided,which would , double the protection from the culvert becoming cl99ged; The.preliminary-- estimate of cost for this item is $1,200. Since this facility is within the .'. limits of the proposed tract, it would normally be constructed by the de- veloper as a condition of approval. The houses on the west side of Sepulveda Avenue have experienced flooding problems in the past. It is my opinion that the major source of their problems have been caused by storm waters from the first debris basin. Their problems will be alleviated by the subdivider extendi'ng this culvert to the cxisting storm drain from the Brush Canyon Debris Basin. Construction of "ry ON J'"E::J\Un'~ o ( : ( .

I believe that a consensus of opinion was reached by the homeowners with a positive resolution. The homeowners would. like to see the following adjustments made to the conditions of approval: 1. That the City accept the offer of dedication for the on-site debris basins. 2. That no offer of dedication for a 60 way extending east from the proposed Mrs. W~cklund's property be included of approval. 3. That a condition be included in the approval of the tract map which provides for perpetual maintenance and upkeep for the area south of the proposed cul- de-sac and that a landscaping plan be submitted to the City for review and approval. foot right-of", cul-de-sac to'\p as a condition ) In reviewing the requests from the adjoining property owners concerning the Variance and Tentative Tract Map, both the Planning Department and the Engineering Division would concur with the request that the City accept the offer of dedication for the debris basins. In our opinion, if the City were to maintain the basins on a routine basis, a serious problem could be mitigated. If the basins are to be maintained by a homeowner or homeowners' association, serious potential downhill problems could develop due to improper maintenance. During the initial review of the tentative tract map, no mention was made concerning the public right-of-way on the south side of the proposed cul-de-sac. The developer was of the opinion that this would be maintained by the City as are most right-of-ways. It is our recommendation that a landscaping plan be submitted to the City showing the method of irrigation and the quantity and species of landscaping to be installed. Once installed, the adjoining property owners to the north shall be required to maintain the landscaping. Finally, the adjacent property owners were of the oplnlon that an irrevocable offer of dedication for extending a street off the proposed cul-de-sac was not necessary and shall not be a condition of approval. This was based on testimony provided by the applicant's engineer indicating that the parcel was not landlocked, since access could be 15-0264 O. . o o o Appeal of T.T. No. 12759 and Var. No. .85-3 August 5~ 1985 achieved by a 30 foot access located at the terminus of Park Lane. Although this 30-foot access could serve as an access point, it is my opinion that the City would be better served by allowing the condition to remain as is. If the City were to exercise the option, it could do so with the construction of a full street section. FRANK A. SCHUMA Planning Director mkf .

WILSON Deputy City Attorney August 5, 1985 Date Approved Date 670.2 As a condition of approval of the subject development, applicant proposes to improve and then dedicate to the City two catch basins located on the property. The catch basins were formed when the railroad extended its grade across certain natural canyons in the hills north of the City. As part of the extent ion of the grade, the railroad placed metal pipes through the grade to allow for the continued flow downstream of the natural stream. Pursuant to an investigation of the advisability of the acceptance of such dedication by the City, I reviewed the recent court case of William and Bonnie Wales v. City of San Bernardino, et al., and the case commonly known as the Hampshire Farms case. With respect to the Wales case, a judgment was entered against the City in the amount of $150,000 on June 20th of this year. As set forth in the--- recorder's transcripts of the proceedings, it was the court I s finding that "In 1961, the City of San Bernardino constructed a catch basin on the east side of.Pepper at that location. The court does find that that was negligently and inadequately designed." With respect to the Hampshire Farms case, my review indicates that the City is exposed to liability because of its ownership of the streets adjacent to the flooded homes. It is important to note that in both cases, the City's liability is predicated on the City's ownershi8 of property involved in the flooding. In no case was the ity held subject to liability simply because of its approval of any prior development. OB' &. Deputy City Attorney JFW:dp C.7Y ON 7H.::M~
