CITY OF SAN BERNIQDINO - REQUEST FOI COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
Subject: Adoption of the Development Code
REOUEST
It is requested that the Mayor and Common council:
1. Determine if the Mayor and Common council would like a
Development Code Workshop prior to conducting public
hearings on the adoption of the Development Code and if
so, set a date for the workshop: or
2. Determine if the Mayor and Common Council prefer to go
directly into public hearings on the adoption of the
Development Code, and if so, set a date for the first
public hearing.
BACKGROUND
In June 1989, after adoption of the General Plan, the Mayor
and Common Council entered into an agreement with the firm of
Jacobson and Wack, Inc., for the preparation of the
Development Code to implement the General Plan.
By the end of 1989 the City received an Administrative Draft
of the Development Code. The Administrative Draft was
reviewed by various city Departments and recommendations were
incorpo~ated resulting in the Preliminary Draft of the
Development Code. \The Preliminary Draft was the subject of
Mayor and Common Council workshops from February 14, 1990 to
April 11, 1990. Workshop recommendations were incorporated
into the Preliminary Draft, resulting in the Final Draft of
the Development Code. The Final Draft has been reviewed
through public hearings conducted by the Planning commission
beginning August 28, 1990 and concluding on November 7, 1990
with a recommendation that the Mayor and Common Council adopt
the proposed environmental clearance and the Final Draft of
the Development Code as redlined. The Redlined Final Draft
is dated 10/90; (Attachment A).
The staff report which contains Planning commission
recommendations and explains the Redlined Final Draft will be
available as required prior to the public hearing or work-
shop. The environmental information and recommendation will
be supplied with the staff report.

ANALYSIS
Many chanqes have occurred between the Administrative and
Redlined Final Drafts of the Development Code. The Mayor and
Common Council were actively involved durinq the workshops
held in February, March and April of 1990. The chanqes are
the results of workshops with the Mayor and Common Council,
the Planninq commission, the public, and special interest
qroups. Most chanqes represent the result of neqotiation,
compromise and concensus. Other chanqes include corrections
of spellinq and typoqraphical. errors, corrections to type
style and format and additions or deletions to insure
consistency amonq tables, charts and text.
It is important to adopt the Development Code prior to the
end of April, 1991. When the General Plan was adopted June
2, 1989, it was implemented by an Urqency Ordinance which was
set to expire June 1, 1990. The Urqency Ordinance was
extended to June 1, 1991. The maximum amount of time to
operate under an urqency ordinance is 24 months, therefore no
further extensions can be adopted. If the Development Code
is not adopted by the end of April, 1991, the effective date
of the ordinance (30 days followinq final readinq) will be
after the expiration of the urqency ordinance. Should that
occur, development requlations for the City would revert back
to Titles 18 and 19 of San Bernardino Municipal Code. Many
provisions of those Titles are inconsistent with the General
Plan.
The Mayor and Common Council may wish to set a workshop to
become familiar with the final public hearinq draft. If the
Mayor and Common Council feel comfortable with the effort put
forth to develop the Redlined Final Draft, the Mayor and
Common council may wish to set the date for the first public
hearinq on the Final Draft of the Development Code.
MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL OPTIONS
The Mayor and Common council may determine:
1.
A workshop on the Redlined Final
Development Code is preferred prior to
and set a date~ or
Draft
public
of the
hearinqs
2. To schedule the Redlined Final Draft of the Development
Code for public hearinq and set a date.
