RES. 89-443 - RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO
OFFERING TO MAKE AVAILABLE TO THE COUNTY OF SAN
BERNARDINO FOR HOSPITAL PURPOSES THE PROPERTY LOCATED
AT PACIFIC AND ARDEN STREETS. (S-2)
Mayor Holcomb gave the history on the allocation of the
property located at Arden and Pacific Avenues.
Mayor Holcomb explained why the property on 9th Street
between Tippecanoe and Del Rosa is a better location for the
rebuilding of the County Hospital.
Sam Henley, Executive Director of the San Bernardino Area
Chamber of Commerce, 546 W. 6th Street, San Bernardino,
California, read a resolution of the San Bernardino Area Chamber
of Commerce supporting the city's efforts to encourage the County
of San Bernardino to keep the San Bernardino County Medical
Center within the boundaries of the city.
A discussion took place regarding the city acquiring the
property on 9th Street between Tippecanoe Avenue and Del Rosa
Avenue, and donating the land to the county for the rebuilding of
the hospital.
Mayor Holcomb predicted that several large landowners and
developers from the west end would offer to donate land to the
county.
Mayor Holcomb concluded that if the county insists that the
Arden and Pacific location is the only site for the rebuilding of
the hospital, the city will give the county the property. But in
the meantime, the city will present to the county a very
attractive offer on the 9th Street and Tippecanoe Avenue
property.
Council Member pope-Ludlam made a motion, seconded by
Council Member Reilly that said resolution be adopted.
Resolution No. 89-443 was adopted by the following vote:
Ayes: Council Members Estrada, Reilly, Flores, Maudsley, Minor,

Mr. Rama explained why he had requested the variance. He
stated that the appeal is based on the desire to increase
business for truckers, by allowing them to park their semi-
trucks on an unpaved parking lot on a six-month trial basis.
Larry Reed answered questions regarding the person
responsible for surveying the parking lot.
City Attorney Penman stated that there will be a problem in
granting the variance because there is no factual basis for the
legal findings. He stated that these semi-trucks will crush the
slag very quickly causing an excessive amount of dust.
City Clerk Clark provided background information concerning
the original request of the applicant for a variance to the
requirement to construct a pave parking lot.
Mr. Rama answered questions regarding the cost to pave the
parking lot.

parking lot after the six-month extension if approval is granted

that after six months the parking lot will be paved according to
city plans.

to prevent the growth of weeds.

there were no
City Attorney Penman stated that the reason the sign was
taken down a few years ago was in response to the city's demand
that it be upgraded or removed. The sign in question was an
improperly maintained and deteriorated billboard sign.
City Attorney Penman read for the record a portion of a
memorandum dated March 23, 1989, from Henry Empeno, Jr., Deputy
City Attorney, concerning the city giving future "credit" to
Heywood Company for a replacement sign.
City Attorney Penman stated that the ordinance in the
municipal code is for a replacement sign and read for the record
SBMC Section 19.60.250(b) as follows: "1. Any company owning an
off-premise sign may replace such sign with another off-premise
sign, etc."
City Attorney Penman explained that this ordinance requires
that the old sign, which is to be replaced, must be presently
"owned" and therefore, presently existing and in use. He stated
that the Heywood Company does not own the sign, the sign has been
down for two years, and that there is nothing in the record that
indicates an agreement was ever reached on "banking" credits for
the removal of the billboard.

law under the California State Constitution can not be repealed
by a policy decision such as the general plan.
John Lightburn stated that although Mr. Heywood cooperated
with the More Attractive Community and removed the sign, he still
owns the sign even though it is not physically on the property.
Mr. Heywood provided background information concerning how
the replacement ordinance came into existence. He stated that he
assisted in rewriting the sign ordinance for the city. The sign
ordinance which was adopted by the former council and planning
commission was to be a replacement sign ordinance.
City Attorney Penman requested additional information
concerning the replacement sign ordinance.
Mr. Heywood stated that he would check his records and bring
back any information concerning the sign ordinance.
City Attorney Penman suggested that this matter be continued
to check the minutes of the Planning Commission concerning the
replacement sign ordinance.
Council Member Maudsley made a motion, seconded by Council
Member Flores, that the hearing be closed and the appeal be
denied.
Council Member Estrada made a substitute motion, seconded by
Council Member Miller, that the appeal hearing be continued to
