STUBBLEFIELD ENTERPRISES - MOUNTAIN SHADOWS VILLAS - DISCUSSION RE EXTENSION OF TIME ON GRANDFATHER CLAUSE - NEW R-3 ORDINANCE CONTINUED FROM EARLIER IN MEETING The Mayor and Common Council discussed an ordinance on the Council Agenda granting an extension of time on the grandfather clause concerning the Mountain Shadows Villas project by Stubblefield Enterprises. (See page 42) (48) ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO ESTABLISHING THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF FINAL APPROVAL OF PLANS FOR PROJECTS PERTAINING TO MULTIPLE-FAMILY DEVELOPMENTS APPEALED TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND THEN TO THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL; AND DECLARING THE URGENCY THEREOF, On November 17, 1986, the Mayor and Common Council closed the hearing on the appeal of the Planning Commis- sion's decision to issue a Negative Declaration for the Mountain Shadows Villas located between the northern ter- minus of La praix Avenue and Citrus Street, and ordered the preparation of a focused environmental impact report. On November 7, 1986, by Council action, StUbblefield Enterprises was granted an extension of two weeks to get their application before the Development Review Committee in order to meet the grandfathering provisions under the transition ordinance for the new R-3 standards. The ordinance on the agenda finalizes the action of November 7, 1986. The Mayor and Council debated as to whether or not the grand fathering of the project should be discussed at this time. On November 17, 1986, a number of Council Members had agreed that if any further discussions on the Stubblefield Mountain Shadows villas project was held, that the public would be notified. 50 11/17/86 The Mayor and Council discussed the three-story is- sue. Under the existing R-3 ordinance, three story units are acceptable. But, they are not acceptable under the new ordinance, which will become effective in December 1986. The Mayor and Council also discussed the environ- mental review process and the use of this process to look at the three story issue. Arnold Stubblefield pointed out that all projects over 24 units are required to obtain a conditional use permit, so if their project is not grandfathered, they will have to start back at the beginning of the process. Frank Schuma, planning Director, answered questions regarding the EIR process and the ability of the Mayor and Common Council to override the findings in the consul- tant's report by way of a statement of overriding consi- derations. council Member Quiel made a motion, seconded by council Member Strickler, that with regard to the Stub- blefield project and their proposed three story units, which would require a conditional use permit under the new ordinance, if in fact the EIR study comes back and indi- cates that those three story units will not have a signif- icant impact on the surrounding community, that we will accept that and allow for the development of three-story units; this will allow for an independent analysis with respect to the three-story. The Mayor and Common Council discussed the motion. Arnold Stubblefield expressed his concern that the Council was singling out this project to impose the stric- ter standards. After further discussion, Council Members Quiel and StriCkler withdrew their motion.
