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.

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.
COUNCIL MEM8ER ESTRADA EXCUSED

council Member ouiel made a substitute motion,

Monday, December 8, 1986, in the Council Chambers of City
