1. Introduction
This Annual Action Plan covers the 2026-2027 fiscal year for the City of San Bernardino’s Five-Year Consolidated Plan. The Annual Action Plan outlines how the City will use its HUD formula grant funds throughout the year to address priority housing and community development needs identified throughout that planning process. The Consolidated Plan identified the following priority needs through data collection, community outreach, and analysis that will serve to govern the trajectory of HUD funding for the next five years:
• Preserving and rehabilitating housing
• Development and Preservation of Affordable Housing and Expanded Housing Types • Increase in Affordable Housing Options
• Provide Homeless Prevention Services
• Infrastructure Improvements
• Strategic Resource Planning and Community Resilience
• Fair housing
• Administration and Planning
The City is an entitlement jurisdiction and receives federal funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The City receives funds through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), and the Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG). HUD funding is used to directly aid the community in specific ways, depending on the program. The City annually receives CDBG entitlement program funds in the estimated amount of $2,576,678.35, which provides formula funding to address community development needs. A minimum of seventy percent of gross funding must be used to serve low- to moderate-income households. Eligible activities must meet one of the following national objectives for the program:
• Benefit low- and moderate-income persons.
• Prevent or eliminate slums or blight.
• Address community development needs, having a particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community, for which other funding is not available.

The City annually receives HOME Investment Partnership Program funds in the estimated amount of $1,092,341.87, which provides formula grant funding for a range of activities, including building, Packet Page. 38
2 purchasing, and rehabilitating affordable housing for rent or homeownership, and providing direct rental assistance to low-income households. The program’s flexibility allows HOME funding to be used for grants, direct loans, loan guarantees, or other forms of credit enhancements, rental assistance, or security deposits to promote homeownership and home security.

The City annually receives ESG program funds in the estimated amount of $229,279.65, which provides formula grant funding to engage homeless individuals and families living on the street, rapidly re-house homeless individuals and families, help operate and provide essential services in emergency shelters for homeless individuals and families, and prevent individuals and families from becoming homeless.

2. Summarize the objectives and outcomes identified in the Plan Throughout the application process, data collection, and community outreach initiatives, the City has identified pivotal housing and community development needs in accordance with HUD regulations. Each FY 2026-2027 application was evaluated based on the priorities identified in the Consolidated Plan Needs Assessment, the Market Analysis, community input obtained through the citizen participation process, the Analysis of Impediments, and the availability of data resources.

Based on these components, preserving and rehabilitating housing, developing and preserving affordable housing, expanding housing types, and increasing affordable housing options have become the City's highest-priority needs. According to resident feedback during the Consolidated Plan planning, the most pressing concerns of the City are:
• Preserving and rehabilitating housing
• Development and Preservation of Affordable Housing and Expanded Housing Types • Increase in Affordable Housing Options
• Provide Homeless Prevention Services
• Infrastructure Improvements
• Strategic Resource Planning and Community Resilience
• Fair housing
Priorities Objectives/Goals
The following goals outlined in the Consolidated Plan will be implemented during the FY 26-27 Annual Action Plan:

Packet Page. 39
3 4. Provide Homeless Prevention Services: The city intends to support the San Bernardino PD Quality of Life Team and the Salvation Army to provide homeless services.

5. Infrastructure Improvements: Fund public facilities projects to comprehensively improve the safety, accessibility, and quality of life in low-income and the surrounding neighborhoods by completing park and recreation improvements, street surface reconstruction including sidewalks, curbs, stormwater facilities, remove barriers by supporting accessibility projects.

6. Strategic Resource Planning and Community Resilience: Section 108 Loan Repayment Program to pursue physical and economic revitalization that will provide an estimated 600 jobs.

7. Fair Housing: Support fair housing services, landlord/tenant mediation, and housing counseling services. Implement a City Tenant Protection Pilot Program.

Summary of some of the findings used to determine priority need:

Preserving and rehabilitating housing
The City of San Bernardino has a relatively old housing stock, with about 65% of occupied housing units built before 1980. In general, housing begins to require major repairs after 30 or 40 years of age.

Those repairs could include important health and safety repairs such as for heating/air systems, roof, kitchen appliances, bathroom or kitchen plumbing, and insulation. Many low- to moderate-income households may be unable to afford these needed repairs. Community engagement efforts also identified a need for housing rehabilitation. Furthermore, engagement through the Owner Occupied Rehabilitation Program (OORP) has identified many residential homes requiring more than $20,000.00 in repairs to address code deficiencies and improve living conditions for low-income households.

Development and Preservation of Affordable Housing and Expanded Housing Types The City has a significant mismatch between housing supply and affordability. There is an affordable housing supply gap of 80% for renter households earning between 0 and 30% AMI and a 22% gap for households earning between 30 and 50% AMI. Additionally, 16,875 low-income renter households are paying more than 30 percent of their income toward housing costs Increase in Affordable Housing Options
The City’s housing market has changed over the last ten years. In 2015, the median home value in the City was $159,800 and increased to $272,600 (71 percent) by 2020. Meanwhile, median income has increased by 33 percent to $49,287. While wages have increased, they have not increased enough to match the pace of housing purchase costs. Median contract rent, on the other hand, has increased by 19 percent, from $813 to $970.

Packet Page. 40
4 Provide Homeless Prevention Services
The latest 2025 PIT count revealed 3,837 homeless adults and children, 2,636 of whom are unsheltered. This was almost a 10% decrease from the previous year’s 4,255 homeless individuals, 3,055 of which were unsheltered. Discussions with the San Bernardino County Homeless Partnership identified that homeless individuals require services to alleviate or prevent homelessness.

Infrastructure Improvements
Community engagement efforts found that the top needs for Public Improvements are street/alley/sidewalk, street lighting, and traffic calming for safety, tree planting and urban greenery, parks, safe routes to school, graffiti removal, and water/sewage improvements.

Strategic Resource Planning and Community Resilience
Enhancing the ability to protect lives and property, reduce long-term operating costs for low to moderate-income persons, improve long-term economic stability, and community well-being was found to be a need during community engagement of the Consolidated Plan and Analysis of Impediments.

Fair housing
Discrimination based on housing was mentioned repeatedly in the community needs survey as a barrier to equal access and fair housing.

3. Evaluation of past performance
This is an evaluation of past performance that helped lead the grantee to choose its goals or projects.

Actions and implementation below are taken from FY 2024-25 CAPER Fair Housing: The City funded the Inland Fair Housing Mediation Board (IFHMB) using CDBG funds to help residents with landlord-tenant issues, provide education about housing rights, and help with eviction issues, security deposits, and foreclosure concerns. 2,161 people received assistance, almost all were low to moderate-income residents.

Public Facilities and Infrastructure: The City completed sidewalk improvements in several neighborhoods, on 10th Street, 49th Street, and the Rialto Avenue corridor. These areas serve about 275,790 residents, over 60% are low to moderate-income.

Packet Page. 41
5 Economic Development: The City funded programs that help small businesses start and grow, activities consisted of workshops and training for business owners, microenterprise assistance, and the Section 108 Loan Repayment Program. These activities helped at least 25 entrepreneurs, 8 businesses directly, and created and retained 17 jobs.

Homeless and Homeless Prevention Services: The City funded programs and partnerships to assist people experiencing homelessness, activities included outreach through the quality-of-life team, emergency shelter, housing stability programs, and homelessness prevention financial assistance. Results included 132 people assisted through outreach, 60 people assisted through emergency shelter, and 31 people assisted through homelessness prevention.

9 AP-10 Consultation – 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(l)

1. Introduction
The City coordinates and collaborates with public agencies, housing providers, and service organizations to identify specific needs or certain vulnerable populations. The Annual Action Plan provides an opportunity to engage the community in the CDBG, HOME, and ESG investment process. The City encourages its residents to voice their needs and concerns regarding homelessness, affordable housing, and community development. All members of the public, especially those living in low- and moderateincome neighborhoods, are encouraged to participate in the planning stages. The goal of the consultation process was to gather data to determine and confirm the community's priority needs.

Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction’s activities to enhance coordination between public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health and service agencies (91.215(l))
Partnerships are the community's strongest suit; the City works with the Housing Authority of the County of San Bernardino (HACSB) and the County Community Development and Housing Agency to better serve its residents. These organizations coordinated to redevelop 251 units of public housing at the former Waterman Gardens public housing project (now known as the Arrowhead Grove neighborhood). The City is also partnering with National CORE, an Inland Empire Community Development Organization (CDHO), to create more affordable housing opportunities.

The City partners with Neighborhood Partnership Housing Services (NPHS), a designated CHDO, in two ways:

1. The administration of the Owner-Occupied Single-Family Rehabilitation Program.

2. The construction of new owner-occupied single-family housing on vacant and blighted lots throughout the city, to increase homeownership among households at and below 80 percent of the Area Median Income. This initiative is part of the City’s infill program.

The City coordinates with the San Bernardino County Department of Behavioral Health (DBH) and its Office of Homeless Services (OHS) to support residents experiencing both homelessness and behavioral health crises. This collaboration includes the ongoing exchange of information, referral pathways, and access to specialized resources that address the intersection of homelessness, mental health, and substance use needs. Through this partnership, the City ensures that residents in crisis are connected to appropriate services, including outreach, case management, treatment programs, and housing navigation support.

10 Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness.

The City recognizes the urgent need to address people experiencing homelessness, with particular attention to chronically homeless individuals and families, veterans, unaccompanied youth, and families with children. The City actively collaborates with key stakeholders and countywide entities to strengthen its homeless response system. During Fiscal Year 2026-27, the City will be awarding Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funds to qualified subrecipients to deliver services that address both immediate and longterm housing needs. As part of its ESG program implementation, the City coordinates efforts with the San Bernardino County Continuum of Care (CoC) and four core entities:

1. Interagency Council on Homelessness – a regional policy-making body overseeing homeless services.

2. Homeless Provider Network – a coalition of service providers and housing agencies.

3. Central Valley Steering Committee – a collaborative committee focused on coordinated local responses.

4. San Bernardino County Department of Behavioral Health, Office of Homeless Services – the administrative body that supports and manages homeless services throughout the county.

The City remains an active participant in the Continuum of Care (CoC) and fully supports the strategic goals outlined in the San Bernardino County 10-Year Strategy to End Homelessness. In addition, the City’s Police Department engages in Point-in-Time (PIT) Count activities, and the Community Development and Housing Department requires ESG subrecipients to utilize the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) to track service delivery and outcomes for individuals and families experiencing or at risk of homelessness.

Describe consultation with the Continuum(s) of Care that serves the jurisdiction's area in determining how to allocate ESG funds, develop performance standards for and evaluate outcomes of projects and activities assisted by ESG funds, and develop funding, policies and procedures for the operation and administration of HMIS The City diligently works with the Continuum of Care (CoC) and attends its regularly scheduled meetings and trainings regarding the issue of homelessness. The City consults with the Interagency Council on Homelessness (ICH), which has no less than one former homeless member, who gives input on funding recommendations. The discussions at the ICH meetings include updates on HMIS, and a monthly data quality report is provided, illustrating the number of clients enrolled in the non-profit organizations using HMIS. The updates help evaluate the outcomes of projects and activities assisted with ESG. Other topics of discussion include presentations to the Office of Homeless Services on activities from the San Packet Page. 47
11 Bernardino County Reentry Collaborative regarding workshop meetings to discuss updating their strategic plan, and a Community Recidivism Reduction Program. A Veterans Initiative from the HACSB has continued to develop creative and effective ways to addressthe needs of the County’s homeless veterans.

Over the past year, HASCB, along with the support and efforts of our affiliate nonprofits, KEYS and HP1 Inc., has created housing opportunities for homeless veterans. There are Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing Special Purpose Vouchers available.

If appropriate, describe publicly owned land or property located within the jurisdiction that may be used to address the needs identified in the plan The City has identified many surplus vacant residential sites downtown. The City plans to collaborate with nonprofits to sell these sites for deed-restricted affordable housing. Most of these vacant lands are zoned for multi-family use or can be upzoned for higher density. All moderate and lower-income sites are infilled, meaning they have access to water, sewer, and dry infrastructure, with priority given for affordable housing connections. Sites for above-moderate income are spread across the southern, central, and northern areas of the district. Infill projects in the works are Shadin Hills, Village Greene, and Montebello.

These projects are in various stages of development. The City also has about 30 acres of surplus land that it plans to dedicate to affordable housing. The City is taking steps to partner with various developers and non-profits to utilize the land and begin development in the near future. The City intends to invite affordable housing developers to participate in an innovative workshop to discuss best practices and offer insight on how the City can effectively collaborate on future projects, specifically with the underutilized. vacant properties or parcels.

The City will maintain funding for its Infill Housing Program and the Owner-Occupied Residential Rehabilitation Program (OORP). Through the City’s Infill Housing Program, the City intends to purchase, renovate, and develop vacant and/or underused land parcels into housing accessible to low- and moderate-income families. The Owner-Occupied Residential Rehabilitation Program will offer funding for the renovation of single-family homes owned by low- and moderate-income families.

Participants may complete the matched savings process over a minimum of three (3) months and a maximum of (12) months, depending on individual circumstances and progress. The education and counseling services are designed to support housing stability, improve financial management skills, and prepare participants for long-term housing goals, including first-time homeownership. The matched savings cohorts provide an enhanced opportunity for participants who choose to deepen their engagement by building savings and strengthening mortgage readiness. All participants will be verified as CDBG-eligible based on HUD income limits and standardized intake documentation. The program will prioritize outreach to low- and moderate-income households within the City of San Bernardino who experience housing cost burden, financial instability, and limited access to traditional wealth-building opportunities.

Table 8 - Geographic Distribution
Rationale for the priorities for allocating investments geographically The City established priority needs, including Preserve and Rehabilitate Housing, Development and Preservation of Affordable Housing, Provide Homeless Prevention Housing, Community Development, Support Fair Housing, etc. These needs were established city-wide rather than in any centralized areas.

Therefore, the City ensures that federal funding aligns with these priority needs and investments are allocated geographically accurately. Furthermore, CDBG funds will be utilized in predominantly lowincome neighborhoods where residents have the greatest need for housing services. Projects are evaluated on a case-by-case basis, considering emergency needs, cost effectiveness, environmental needs, feasibility, and availability of other funding to address specific needs.

Discussion
The City will allocate its funds to organizations that will provide housing and support services to lowincome households. The process for every annual action plan requires the City to prioritize the use of its CDBG funding for housing and community development activities, including the preservation and conservation of affordable housing, public improvements, and public facilities.

AP-55 Affordable Housing - 91.220(g)
Introduction
The City of San Bernardino, like many Cities in California, needs more affordable housing. According to the California Housing Partnership, the San Bernardino County Housing Need Report 2025, 60,659 lowincome renter households in San Bernardino County do not have access to an affordable home. Through community outreach and data gathering for the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan and the Analysis of Impediments to fair housing choice, the City has identified priority needs directly correlated to affordable housing. These include:

Development and Preservation of Affordable Housing and Expanded Housing Types Description: New affordable rental housing (new construction, adaptive reuse, or rehabilitation) in a variety of types, and new affordable rental housing with supportive services for homeless individuals and veterans.

Basis for Priority: There is a significant mismatch between housing supply and affordability within the City.

There is an affordable housing supply gap of 80 percent for renter households earning between 0 and 30 percent of the AMI, and a 22 percent gap for households earning between 30 and 50 percent of the AMI.

Additionally, 16,875 low-income renter households are paying more than 30 percent of their income toward housing costs.

Increase Affordable Housing Options
Description: Increase affordable housing options through homeownership or rentals and open up new possibilities to affordable housing.

Basis for Priority: The most prevalent housing problems within the City are cost burden and overcrowding.

San Bernardino has a population of 220,328 persons and a total of 62,486 households. Nearly 61 percent of households in San Bernardino City (36,310 total) qualify as low- to moderate-income, earning up to 80 percent of HUD Area Median Family Income (HAMFI).

The city will continue to partner with the Housing Authority of the County of San Bernardino (HACSB), the public housing authority (PHA) for the county, which issues rental vouchers to bridge the gap between income, affordability, and market-rate housing. The two forms of vouchers provided to aid tenants throughout the city are tenant-based and project-based vouchers issued to residents in San Bernardino City.

AP-60 Public Housing - 91.220(h)
Introduction
Public housing and other assisted housing programs are crucial elements of the City’s efforts to address the affordable housing needs of low- and moderate-income families, senior citizens, disabled individuals, and other individuals. The Housing Authority of the County of San Bernardino (HACSB) serves the city.

HACSB has one public housing site, a single-family unit in Apple Valley. This agency administers the Housing Choice Voucher Program, which provides rental assistance to eligible residents of San Bernardino by providing monthly rental assistance to participants who want to rent from a private landlord but cannot afford the full monthly rental payment. The Housing Choice Voucher program is funded by the U.S.

Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). HACSB converted a 98-unit public housing site in Upland into a project-based voucher site. There are no public housing units in the City.

As of 2025, the City currently has 3,804 affordable units receiving public subsidies, with 707 at risk of expiring. 38 percent of these units are limited to senior residents.

Actions planned during the next year to address the needs to public housing The City is facilitating and encouraging the development and rehabilitation of existing housing to meet the needs for Extremely Low -Income housing. Projects from groups such as National Core— which is currently replacing the 400-unit Waterman Gardens public housing project with new affordable housing and supportive services on-site—are providing much-needed housing options for extremely low-income residents. Organizations like NHPS, Mary Erickson, and many other nonprofit and for-profit organizations are building infill housing that is affordable to lower-income households.

The City will maintain contact with the owners of at-risk units, encourage the owner to keep the at-risk units affordable, and utilize, if feasible, local incentives to preserve any at-risk units. To develop or preserve the City’s affordable housing stock, the City will provide technical and/or financial assistance to local non-profit organizations that provide affordable housing.

Actions to encourage public housing residents to become more involved in management and participate in homeownership
The City will continue its partnership with NPHS to build affordable single-family housing on infill parcels. The goal is to make homeownership more accessible. Presently, four manufactured housing units are approved for construction. NPHS deed restricts these units as affordable to lower-income households through long-term affordability covenants.

The City collaborates with the HACSB to encourage public housing residents to utilize City housing services and area homeownership programs, particularly residents of public housing. HACSB administers the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program for the City. Public housing residents would be assisted with Packet Page. 80

HCVs upon availability and if needed.

The City welcomes affordable housing partnerships.

If the PHA is designated as troubled, describe the manner in which financial assistance will be provided or other assistance
HACSB has not been designated as troubled. HACSB was designated a Moving To Work Agency by Congress in 2008. This is a limited designation to PHAs across the country.

Discussion
The City of San Bernardino will continue to work collaboratively alongside HACSB to provide supportive services and address the housing needs of the community.

AP-65 Homeless and Other Special Needs Activities - 91.220(i) Introduction
The issue of homelessness is a top priority for the City of San Bernardino, as reflected by the 2023 Homelessness State of Emergency Declaration by City Council and the subsequent 2024 reaffirmation.

Each year, the County of San Bernardino conducts a Homeless Count, the Point-In-Time Count (PITC) to identify persons who are not living in adequate housing facilities, led by the Continuum of Care (CoC). The latest 2025 PIT count revealed 3,837 homeless adults and children, 2,636 of which are unsheltered. This was almost a 10% decrease from the previous year’s 4,255 homeless individuals, 3,055 of which were unsheltered. A comparison of the last two counts reveals that:
• 418 less persons were counted in 2025, which represents a decrease of 9.8%; • Only one more individual was counted as sheltered in 2025, increasing the count from 1,200 to 1,201; and
• On the other hand, the unsheltered count decreased by approximately 14% from 3,055 to 2,636.

While the County’s homeless count saw a small decrease, the same trend was not found in the City of San Bernardino, specifically:
• 554 Sheltered persons, a 26% increase from 2024’s 440 Sheltered count • 981 Unsheltered persons, a .4% increase from 2024’s 977 Unsheltered count • Total of 1,535, an 8% increase from 2024’s Total of 1,417 For FY 2024-2025, the City successfully used ESG funds to provide shelter to 60 homeless individuals.

Furthermore, 31 individuals who were at risk of homelessness were assisted through housing stabilization and including housing stabilization and short-to-medium-term rental assistance through Homeless Prevention Services. There is a gap between the outcome and the projected one-year goal because of the rising cost of operation. During the program year, the City expended 97% of its ESG funds to meet the housing needs of the 91 homeless and at-risk-of-homelessness population.

The City of San Bernardino is currently drafting a Five-Year Homeless Solutions Action Plan to address the unique needs of the community and coordinate strategies for effective responses. The plan is centered on three guiding principles:

1. Supportive Pathways to Housing

2. Prioritizing Long-Term Solutions

3. Alignment with National Best Practices
The City is also expanding its Housing and Homeless Division to meet the growing needs of the Packet Page. 82

community and fill identified service gaps.

Describe the jurisdictions one-year goals and actions for reducing and ending homelessness including Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs
A top priority for the City of San Bernardino continues to be able to provide sufficient homeless prevention services and resources. The City will maintain its support of the CoC’s coordinated entry system, 2- 1-1 San Bernardino County. Through this system, individuals and families who are at imminent risk of becoming homeless (HUD Homeless definition (Category 2)) receive problem-solving support aimed at helping them retain their current housing or secure alternate housing as quickly as possible.

In addition to supporting regional efforts, the City is planning to leverage the upcoming Deep Blue pilot software, a program that allows for cross-agency collaboration and real-time data sharing to create data dashboards and reports that will inform strategic responses to homelessness. The City also invests in local outreach programs that engage unsheltered residents, connecting them to emergency services and helping them navigate pathways to housing stability. These outreach efforts play a critical role in linking individuals to shelter, case management, behavioral health services, and long‑term housing solutions.

The City’s ongoing priorities include:
- Increase emergency shelter, interim housing, and affordable housing units - Increase homeless prevention services
- Support mental health and substance use services
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons The City has made great strides in its pursuit to adaptively reuse a vacant property for the conversion of the former School of Hope campus. Formerly a special education school, the site is being rehabilitated and reimagined into a homeless navigation facility to provide low-barrier, non-congregate, interim housing and supportive services for homeless individuals and households at risk of becoming homeless.

The Hope campus, set to open in late 2026 or early 2027, will include 180 housing units, an administrative building, a laundry facility, and a cafeteria/assembly area. In total, the project will provide approximately 17,380 sqft. of residential housing, 2,900 sqft. of shared spaces and communal areas, a dog kennel, and 15,200 sqft. of surface parking consisting of 34 parking spaces.

Hope Campus will contain 180 non-congregate transitional housing units with beds that include storage space underneath, s, bathrooms with a sink, toilet, and shower, fire sprinklers, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. These 180 units can accommodate up to 200 unsheltered individuals.

Sixteen units will be Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessible, ensuring units are easily accessible for residents with disabilities. Additionally, the facilities will include a cafeteria with a fully equipped Packet Page. 83
Annual Action Plan
2026
47 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
commercial kitchen able to serve 120 residents per meal. The cafeteria will also serve as an assembly area and include movable dividers to divide the cafeteria into four smaller areas for activities. The campus will have free Wi-Fi access and outdoor spaces for all occupants.

Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again
The City continues to actively participate in the County of San Bernardino CoC and attend meetings to discuss the establishment of performance measures that benefit the broader goals of the region. Some of the tasks recently undertaken by the City include assisting with the 2025 Point-In-Time-Count conducted by the County of San Bernardino. The City recognizes that homelessness is a regional issue that impacts not only San Bernardino but also neighboring communities. As the largest community in the County, the City also serves as a hub for service providers and supports the efforts of the network of agencies working to end homelessness through the Regional Continuum of Care Strategy. Part of the Continuum of Care Strategy is a key component of homeless prevention. The provision of preventative services will decrease the number of households and individuals who will become homeless and require emergency shelters and assistance. The City works to prevent persons from becoming homeless by funding emergency rental assistance for households at risk of homelessness through the Homeless Prevention program, supported by ARPA and ESG funds.

Each year, the City funds organizations through the ESG programs that provide emergency shelter, homeless prevention services, street outreach, rapid rehousing, and HMIS, such as the Salvation Army and Family Services of Redlands.

The City is breaking ground in 2026 on the San Bernardino HOPE Campus, a full-service homeless navigation center and shelter that features needed services as part of its operation, located on 6th Street.

This navigation center will provide case management, mental health and substance abuse services, job placement, and more. Furthermore, the San Bernardino Community Wellness Campus (SBCWC), a noncongregate interim housing facility that completed construction in December 2025, will be focused on providing supportive services to provide long-term solutions to end homelessness, including permanent housing and independent living. Individualized case plans will be provided for at least 95% of residents within 72 hours of entry. (see Discussion below). As part of the City’s Five-Year Homeless Solutions Action Plan goal, the City aims to, within the next year, add 100 new interim/emergency beds and see a 5% Packet Page. 84
Annual Action Plan
2026
48 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
reduction in the average length of stay in interim housing.

Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, education, or youth needs.

The City of San Bernardino is committed to reducing the number of individuals and families who become homeless by strengthening prevention efforts, expanding access to supportive services, and improving coordination across systems of care. Creating clear referral pathways from emergency shelters and rapid rehousing to permanent supportive housing is a top priority for the City. In 2026, San Bernardino will continue to enhance its partnerships with service providers, the Continuum of Care, and regional agencies to ensure that individuals receiving services are able to maintain self-sufficiency after services are terminated. This includes supporting outreach teams that engage unsheltered residents, connect them to emergency shelter, and link them with case management, behavioral health services, and long‑term housing resources. Through these coordinated efforts, the City aims to reduce the amount of time individuals experience homelessness and increase the number of residents who successfully transition into stable, permanent housing. Part of the City’s continued support of the regional CoC’s efforts includes implementing the San Bernardino County 10-Year Strategy for Ending Homelessness. This plan includes a recommendation to focus on discharge planning to prevent people discharged from correctional, foster care, health care, or mental health care systems from becoming homeless again. The McKinney-Vento Act requires that local governments have policies and protocols in place to ensure that persons being discharged from a publicly funded institution or system of care are not immediately discharged into homelessness. To meet HUD’s requirements, the 10-Year Strategy has established a Discharge Planning Committee to focus on improving coordination between discharge planning agencies, local government, and homeless service providers to implement a “zero tolerance” plan that will prevent persons from being discharged into homelessness.

Discussion
Homeless Solutions Action Plan (HSAP)
The City of San Bernardino is currently finalizing a Five-Year Homeless Solutions Action Plan to establish a coordinated, strategic framework for reducing homelessness and improving housing stability across the community. The plan is designed to align local efforts with regional Continuum of Care priorities, leverage state and federal funding opportunities, and create a clear roadmap for implementing Packet Page. 85

2026

evidence‑based interventions.

The Homeless Solutions Action Plan (HSAP) identifies key system gaps, evaluates current service capacity, and outlines targeted strategies to expand outreach, shelter, interim housing, permanent supportive housing, and prevention programs. It also emphasizes cross‑departmental collaboration, data‑driven decision making, and partnerships with local stakeholders such as nonprofit providers, faith‑based organizations, and behavioral health agencies.

The City recognizes the importance of addressing the root causes of homelessness, such as economic instability, lack of affordable housing, untreated mental health conditions, and substance use disorders, while simultaneously improving the capacity to respond to immediate needs and focusing on supportive, long-term solutions. HSAP outlines measurable outcomes and performance indicators to track progress over the five‑year period, ensuring accountability and transparency in the implementation process. FY 2026-2027 serves as the first year in this Five-Year plan.

HOPE Campus
Designed to address the root causes of homelessness, the HOPE Campus will offer approximately 200 beds and provide a safe, supportive environment for individuals and families experiencing homelessness.

The facility will connect residents to a comprehensive range of services, including medical respite care, mental health and substance use disorder counseling, individualized case management, job training and placement, and expanded pathways to permanent housing. In addition to serving those currently experiencing homelessness, the HOPE Campus will support individuals at risk of losing their housing by hosting onsite partner agencies that can provide rental and utility assistance to eligible households.

Through this integrated service model, the HOPE Campus will strengthen the City’s capacity to stabilize vulnerable residents and promote long‑term housing security.

Homekey - San Bernardino with Lutheran Social Services of Southern California (LSSSC) The City has embarked on a State of California Homekey Project to establish the San Bernardino Community Wellness Campus - a non-congregate interim housing facility comprising 210 beds, in collaboration with Lutheran Social Services of Southern California (LSSSC). This initiative aims to address the pressing need for such a campus, and the unique needs of the City, especially considering that the number of homeless men in the City surpasses that of homeless women by a ratio of two to one. The current Central City Lutheran Mission has been transformed into a supportive campus that will provide an onsite medical clinic and comprehensive, onsite social services to address social, physical, educational, educational, social, physical, physical, and mental health needs that will be available to campus residents and the larger community. 140 beds have been added to the existing 70 beds, making up 210 in total. At least 95% of residents will receive individualized case plans within 72 hours of entry, ensuring that Packet Page. 86

2026

individual needs are met and long-term solutions are provided to prevent re-entry.

Legal Aid Society of San Bernardino (Legal Aid) Tenant Protection Program The City of San Bernardino will continue its partnership with the Legal Aid Society of San Bernardino to operate a two‑year Tenant Protection Program dedicated exclusively to serving City residents at no cost.

Through this program, Legal Aid will provide direct legal representation and education on tenant rights, with the goal of preventing displacement and reducing the risk of homelessness among low‑income households. The program will focus on helping tenants navigate issues such as unlawful evictions, habitability concerns, and other housing‑related legal challenges, ensuring that vulnerable residents have the support necessary to maintain stable housing.

Homeless Outreach
The City of San Bernardino will continue its partnership with Hope the Mission, a nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing homelessness through direct engagement and supportive services. Together, the City and Hope the Mission will provide consistent, five‑day‑a‑week outreach aimed at connecting individuals and families experiencing homelessness with immediate assistance and pathways to stability.

The outreach team, comprised of trained emergency crisis workers, will respond to emerging needs in the community by offering on‑the‑spot support, including case management, motel vouchers, basic necessities, medical coordination, and transportation. In addition to addressing urgent crises, the team will facilitate access to longer‑term resources such as emergency and transitional shelters, rehabilitation programs, and family reunification services. This coordinated approach ensures that individuals experiencing homelessness receive comprehensive, person‑centered care, while prioritizing housing opportunities for San Bernardino residents and strengthening the City’s broader homelessness response system.

Affordable Housing Workshop
The City of San Bernardino is committed to preserving and developing new affordable housing projects to meet the growing needs of the community. Underutilized and surplus parcels across the City are being identified and assessed for the potential use of supportive housing developments. The City also intends to, within the next year, invite affordable housing developers to participate in an innovative workshop to discuss best practices and offer insight on how the City can effectively collaborate on future projects.

AP-75 Action Plan Barriers to Affordable Housing - 91.220(j) Introduction
The City has recognized that barriers to affordable housing exist and employs strategies that work to overcome those barriers. Barriers exist that are land-related, programmatic, accessibility, and financial.

The City has collaborated with major community stakeholders to address barriers to affordable housing.

This section gives an overview of actions the City is planning to take to address barriers to affordable housing.

Actions it planned to remove or ameliorate the negative effects of public policies that serve as barriers to affordable housing such as land use controls, tax policies affecting land, zoning ordinances, building codes, fees and charges, growth limitations, and policies affecting the return on residential investment
The City has made the following additional amendments to the Municipal Code to further reduce barriers to affordable housing:

1. General Lot Consolidation Incentive - small, individual lots offer limited development potential and generally cannot support onsite property management. Development opportunities could be increased through a small-lot consolidation program that offers a 15 percent density bonus for projects with a residential component that are committed to a maintenance plan and having on-site management.

The City is anticipating amending the Development Code to incentivize lot Consolidation.

2. Density Bonus Provisions - Density bonus projects can be an important source of housing for lower-and moderate-income households. The City anticipates amending the Development Code to reflect the latest amendments to the State density bonus law.

3. Transitional and Supportive Housing - The City plans to amend the Development Code to adequately define transitional and permanent supportive housing and permit these uses based on unit type, in accordance with Senate Bill 2.

4. Streamlined Processing - The City is committed to continuing the streamlining of development activities and regulations and will continue to analyze potential programs that seek to eliminate land use constraints, particularly as related to the provision of new housing and rehabilitation of existing housing.

The City amended its Development Code in 2012 to make it more user-friendly and to minimize confusion for staff and the development community. As part of the Development Code update, the City also introduced a new streamlined type of Conditional Use Permit: the Minor Use Permit (MUP). The MUP is reviewed by the Development/Environmental Review Committee rather than the Planning Commission, Packet Page. 88

which requires less staff time (and a relatively shorter process for developers), lower fees, and can be used instead of a CUP for certain qualified projects.

5. The City will update its General Plan. San Bernardino 2050 has prioritized housing. Homepage - Future San Bernardino 2050 (futuresb2050.com)
Discussion:

The City is currently finalizing a Five-Year Homeless Solutions Action Plan to establish a coordinated, strategic framework for reducing homelessness and improving housing stability across the community.

The plan is designed to align local efforts with regional Continuum of Care priorities, leverage state, and federal funding opportunities, and create a clear roadmap for implementing evidence‑based interventions.

For FY 2026-2027, the City will continue to fund its Infill Housing Program and the Owner-Occupied Residential Rehabilitation Program (OORP). Housing Programs - City of San Bernardino (sbcity.org) Through the City’s Infill Housing Program, the City will acquire, rehabilitate vacant and/or underutilized parcels of land, and create housing affordable to low- and moderate-income households. The OwnerOccupied Residential Rehabilitation Program will provide deferred loans for the rehabilitation of singlefamily units owned by low and moderate-income households.

The City will hold an affordable housing workshop to garner developer and stakeholder buy in for vacant parcels around the City the goal is to foster a partnership to collaboratively build affordability in a way that everyone benefits, this can look vastly different for every scenario. Having those table top conversations is particularly important for housing affordability growth.

Reference 24 CFR 91.220(l)(2)

1. A description of other forms of investment being used beyond those identified in Section 92.205 is as follows:

1. The City of San Bernardino does not intend to use forms of investment other than those described in 24 CFR §92.205(b). All HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) funds will Packet Page. 92
Annual Action Plan
2026
56 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
be used in eligible forms including grants, deferred payment loans, interest-bearing loans, and other HUD-approved forms of assistance that comply with HOME regulations.

In addition to HOME-specific investments, the City leverages other resources—such as CDBG, ESG, ARPA, and State funds—to complement federal housing and community development activities.

These additional investments may be used for site acquisition, Invest in Community Infrastructure and Facility Improvements, or supportive services that enhance housing affordability and sustainability but do not deviate from HUD's defined eligible investment types under §92.205.

If new or alternative investment mechanisms are considered during the Plan period, the City will ensure full compliance with HUD regulations and will submit the necessary amendments and approvals.

2. A description of the guidelines that will be used for resale or recapture of HOME funds when used for homebuyer activities as required in 92.254, is as follows:

HOME Recapture Provision If Buyer at any time during the Period of Affordability sells or transfers the Eligible Property, whether voluntarily or involuntarily due to foreclosure or other circumstances, the following provisions shall apply, pursuant to 24 C.F.R. Part 92.254:

1. If Buyer sells or transfers the Eligible Property within the first two years of the Period of Affordability, City shall recover from the Net Proceeds, if any, the entire amount of the HOME Subsidy, or such lesser amount as the Net Proceeds may permit to be recovered. The Net Proceeds are the sales price paid to the Buyer minus repayment of loans that are superior in priority to this Affordable Housing Covenant and the Deed of Trust securing it, and any closing costs.

2. If Buyer sells or transfers the Eligible Property after occupying the Eligible Property for at least two years (24 months from the Delivery Date), City’s recovery from the Net Proceeds shall equal the amount of the HOME Subsidy, reduced by a percentage determined by dividing the number of Buyer’s full years of occupation of the Eligible Property by the number of years of the Period of Affordability and multiplying the result by 100. In calculating recapture of the HOME subsidy, only full 12-month periods of occupancy will be utilized. For example, if the Buyer sells or transfers the Eligible Property during the third year, before the completion of the full third year of ten years of Affordability, the Packet Page. 93
Annual Action Plan
2026
57 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
percentage reduction of the amount of the HOME Subsidy to be recovered by City shall equal 20 percent: (2 years ÷ 10 years) × 100 = 20. Assuming sufficient Net Proceeds, City would recover 80 percent of the HOME Subsidy. If there were not sufficient Net Proceeds, City would recover 80 percent of Net Proceeds, whatever the amount.

3. In no event shall City’s recovery exceed the amount of the Net Proceeds. The City requires that its CHDO/subrecipients, who conduct HOME-funded ownership programs, utilize the noted recapture provisions, which are part of the affordability covenant executed by the homeowner and recorded against the property. In its homeownership and single-family rehabilitation programs, the City utilizes the homeownership limits for the San Bernardino Metropolitan/FMR Area provided by HUD.

3. A description of the guidelines for resale or recapture that ensures the affordability of units acquired with HOME funds? See 24 CFR 92.254(a)(4) are as follows:

Measured from the Delivery Date and determined based on the amount of the HOME Subsidy, as follows: Amount of HOME Subsidy Period of Affordability • Amount of HOME Subsidy: Less than $15,000 Period of Affordability: 5 years • Amount of HOME Subsidy: $15,000 to $40,000 Period of Affordability: 10 years • Amount of HOME Subsidy: More than $40,000 Period of Affordability:15 years The City's affordability covenant requires that HOME units acquired with HOME funds remain affordable for the period noted based on the amount of HOME subsidy. The City also requires that its CHDO/sub-recipients who conduct HOME-funded ownership programs utilize the recapture provisions noted, which are part of the affordability covenant executed by the homeowner and recorded against the property.

In its homeownership and single-family rehabilitation programs, the City utilizes the homeownership limits for the San Bernardino Metropolitan/FMR Area provided by HUD.

4. Plans for using HOME funds to refinance existing debt secured by multifamily housing that is rehabilitated with HOME funds along with a description of the refinancing guidelines required that will be used under 24 CFR 92.206(b), are as follows:

The City will not be refinancing existing debt secured by multifamily housing rehabilitated with HOME funds. The City will not refinish single-family units rehabilitated with HOME funds. With regard to eligible beneficiaries, the City will adhere to the requirements under 24 CFR 2.203 in relation to income determinations; 92.216 with respect to incomes of applicants; 92.253 with regard to tenant protections and selection and other HOME regulatory requirements that ensure beneficiaries are not Packet Page. 94
Annual Action Plan
2026
58 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
precluded from participating in HOME funded programs. The City utilizes Notice of Funding Availability and Requests for Proposals to solicit applications for funding under the HOME program.

Applications are solicited as funds are available for various programs and/or when contracts and renewal periods with applicants expire and new NOFAs and RPS are released.

5. If applicable to a planned HOME TBRA activity, a description of the preference for persons with special needs or disabilities. (See 24 CFR 92.209(c)(2)(i) and CFR 91.220(l)(2)(vii)).

If implemented, the City intends to establish a preference for persons with special needs and disabilities, in alignment with 24 CFR §92.209(c)(2)(i). This may include individuals with physical, mental, or developmental disabilities, those at risk of institutionalization, and persons with substance use or behavioral health needs. The City will consult with local partners, such as the San Bernardino County Department of Behavioral Health, the Office of Homeless Services, and disability advocacy organizations, to structure the program to ensure legal compliance, and service integration. All preferences will be clearly defined and documented in written TBRA policies and procedures, and will be implemented in a non-discriminatory manner consistent with federal fair housing laws.

6. If applicable to a planned HOME TBRA activity, a description of how the preference for a specific category of individuals with disabilities (e.g., persons with HIV/AIDS or chronic mental illness) will narrow the gap in benefits and the preference is needed to narrow the gap in benefits and services received by such persons. (See 24 CFR 92.209(c)(2)(ii) and 91.220(l)(2)(vii)).

If such a program is established, the City may adopt a targeted preference for specific categories of individuals with disabilities, particularly those who experience significant service gaps—such as persons with chronic mental illness, HIV/AIDS, or co-occurring disorders. These populations are often overrepresented in the homeless system and underrepresented in stable housing placements, despite frequent engagement with public systems of care. For example, individuals with chronic mental illness may cycle through shelters, hospitals, and correctional institutions due to a lack of supportive housing options. Similarly, people living with HIV/AIDS may face both housing discrimination and limited access to long-term rental assistance.

A targeted TBRA preference would narrow the gap in housing benefits by:
• Providing stable rental assistance to individuals who are often ineligible for other longterm subsidies. • Coordinating with service providers (e.g., Department of Behavioral Health, local HIV/AIDS networks) to ensure access to wraparound supports. • Preventing institutionalization and promoting independent living in community-based settings.

Any such preference will be carefully structured, with data and stakeholder input used to Packet Page. 95
Annual Action Plan
2026
59 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
demonstrate both the need and legal defensibility. The City will ensure all preferences are administered in compliance with fair housing requirements, including a clear showing that the preference is necessary to address a documented disparity in housing access or services.

7. If applicable, a description of any preference or limitation for rental housing projects. (See 24 CFR

92.253(d)(3) and CFR 91.220(l)(2)(vii)). Note: Preferences cannot be administered in a manner that limits the opportunities of persons on any basis prohibited by the laws listed under 24 CFR 5.105(a).

At this time, the City of San Bernardino does not impose any limitations or preferences in its HOMEassisted rental housing projects that would restrict participation. The City will continue to monitor projects for compliance with applicable fair housing laws and HUD’s HOME regulations.

Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG)
Reference 91.220(l)(4)

1. Include written standards for providing ESG assistance (may include as attachment) Please refer to the attachment included.

2. If the Continuum of Care has established centralized or coordinated assessment system that meets HUD requirements, describe that centralized or coordinated assessment system.

The City of San Bernardino is an active participant in the San Bernardino County Continuum of Care (CoC), which has established a centralized Coordinated Entry System (CES) in accordance with HUD requirements. The CES is managed by the San Bernardino County Office of Homeless Services (OHS) and serves as the primary tool for connecting individuals and families experiencing or at risk of homelessness to appropriate housing and supportive services.

The CES is designed to:
• Provide standardized assessment tools and procedures (e.g., VI-SPDAT) to evaluate the needs and vulnerabilities of people experiencing homelessness; • Prioritize clients for housing and services based on vulnerability, length of homelessness, and severity of service needs;
• Ensure fair and equal access to housing resources, including permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, and transitional housing;
• Use the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) to facilitate case coordination, referrals, and outcome tracking;
• Integrate referrals from a broad range of access points, including emergency shelters, outreach teams, hospitals, and law enforcement.

Packet Page. 96
Annual Action Plan
2026
60 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021)
The CES is accessible through multiple physical and virtual entry points across the County, including partners such as The Salvation Army, Family Service Association of Redlands, Lutheran Social Services, and HOPE Navigation Centers, among others. All ESG subrecipients funded by the City of San Bernardino are required to participate in the CES and coordinate service delivery and housing placements through the system. This coordinated assessment approach enables a system-wide response to homelessness that improves client outcomes, reduces duplication of services, and ensures the most vulnerable populations are prioritized for limited housing resources.

3. Identify the process for making sub-awards and describe how the ESG allocation available to private nonprofit organizations (including community and faith-based organizations).

The City of San Bernardino administers its ESG program in alignment with HUD regulations and ensures that funding is equitably accessible to eligible private nonprofit organizations, including community-based and faith-based organizations. Each program year, the City issues a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) or Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit applications from qualified service providers. The process includes:

1. Public Notification: The City publicly posts the NOFA/RFP on its website and distributes it via email to a wide network of service providers, including those within the San Bernardino County Continuum of Care (CoC). Outreach is inclusive of faith-based and grassroots community organizations.

2. Eligibility and Threshold Review: All proposals are reviewed to ensure applicants meet HUD eligibility criteria for ESG funding and possess the administrative capacity to implement programs in compliance with 24 CFR Part 576.

3. Application Evaluation - Proposals are evaluated based on: Experience in serving homeless or atrisk populations; Performance outcomes and past compliance history; Program design, including alignment with the CoC’s priorities and CES participation; Cost-effectiveness and leveraging of additional resources.

4. Funding Recommendations: A City review—often including representatives from the Housing and Homelessness Division and outside advisors—scores and ranks proposals.

Recommendations are presented to the Mayor and City Council for approval as part of the Annual Action Plan and budget adoption process.

5. Contract Execution and Monitoring: Awarded subrecipients enter into formal contracts with the City. Ongoing technical assistance and monitoring ensure compliance with ESG regulations, eligible uses of funds, and performance outcomes.

The City prioritizes provider representation, including agencies with lived experience expertise, and commitment to transparent, fair, and lawful administration of ESG funds, ensuring that resources are directed efficiently toward addressing homelessness and housing instability in ways that uphold both programming integrity and federal requirements.

4. If the jurisdiction is unable to meet the homeless participation requirement in 24 CFR 576.405(a), the jurisdiction must specify its plan for reaching out to and consulting with homeless or formerly homeless individuals in considering policies and funding decisions regarding facilities and services funded under ESG.

The City of San Bernardino attends and participates, on a quarterly basis, the Interagency Council on Homelessness (ICH). The ICH is a vital component of the San Bernardino County Homeless Partnership.

The ICH serves as the policy-making body of the Partnership and oversees the implementation of the 10-Year Strategy to End Homelessness in San Bernardino County. The ICH will focus on resource development to ensure the funding of homeless projects and 10-Year Strategy recommendations. In addition, ICH serves as the HUD-designated primary decision-making group and oversight board of the City of San Bernardino & County (hereinafter referred to as the “geographic area”) Continuum of Care for the Homeless (CA-609) funding process, (hereinafter referred to as the “CoC”). There are currently former homeless individuals who participate in the policy-making decisions of the CoC, regarding facilities or services that receive ESG funding from the City.

The ICH is charged with directing, coordinating, and evaluating all of the activities related to implementation of the 10-Year Strategy to End Homelessness. The ICH members are directed to report progress on the implementation of the 10-Year Strategy to their colleagues and constituents following each meeting of the ICH. The ICH will promote collaborative partnerships among homeless providers and stakeholders throughout San Bernardino County in order to conduct implementation activities and will develop resources to ensure the funding of homeless projects and 10-Year Strategy recommendations.

As the oversight board of the CoC, the ICH's duties are:

1. To ensure that the CoC is meeting all of the responsibilities assigned to it by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) regulations, including:
a. The operation and oversight of the local CoC; b. Designation and operation of a Homeless Management Information System (HMIS);
i. Designate a single HMIS for the geographic area;
ii. Designate an eligible applicant to manage the CoC’s HMIS, known as the HMIS Lead; iii. Ensure consistent participation of recipients and sub-recipients of CoC and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) funding in the HMIS.
iv. Ensure the HMIS is administered in compliance with all requirements prescribed by HUD.

c. Developing a CoC plan that includes outreach, engagement, assessment, annual gap analysis of the homeless needs and services available, prevention strategies, shelter and housing supportive services, and HUD CoC annual and biennial requirements;

2. To represent the relevant organizations and projects serving homeless subpopulations;

3. To support homeless persons moving from homelessness to economic stability and affordable permanent housing within a supportive community;

4. To be inclusive of all the needs of all of the geographic area’s homeless population, including the special service and housing needs of homeless sub-populations;

5. To facilitate responses to issues and concerns affecting the agencies funded by the CoC beyond those addressed in the annual CoC application process;

6. To consult with recipients and sub-recipients of CoC funding to establish performance targets appropriate for population and program type, monitor recipient and sub-recipient performance, evaluate outcomes, and take action against poor performers; and

7. To evaluate outcomes of projects funded under the County of San Bernardino CoC program, including the ESG.

5. Describe performance standards for evaluating ESG.

ESG Subrecipients must demonstrate fiscal management and programmatic expertise to successfully develop, design, implement, and monitor the ESG-funded activities. ESG Subrecipients must participate in HMIS and be able to meet all federal, State of California, and City of San Bernardino requirements relative to the ESG program, specifically those concerning equal opportunity and fair housing, affirmative marketing, environmental review, displacement, relocation, acquisition, labor, lead-based paint, conflict of interest, debarment and suspension, and flood insurance.

Under the City ESG agreement, ESG Subrecipients are required to conduct an initial evaluation to determine the eligibility of each individual or family for ESG assistance and the amount and types of assistance the individual or family needs to regain stability in permanent housing.

All subrecipient providers should meet or exceed project quality goals established by HUD and CoC guidelines which include the following: At least 80 percent of project participants either remained in permanent housing or exited to permanent housing; At least 20 percent or more of project participants have employment income (or other sources such as SSI and/or SSDI, for those who are not employable); At least 54 percent of project participants increased their income from sources other than employment in a given operating year; At least 56 percent of project participants obtained mainstream benefits; and 100 percent of the project participants came from the street or other Packet Page. 99

ANNUAL ACTION PLAN
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that
the City of San Bernardino (‘‘City’’)
is an entitlement jurisdiction that receives Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME
Investment Partnerships (HOME),
and Emergency Solutions Grant
(ESG) funds directly from the U.S.

Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD). The City
anticipates receiving approximately
$2,576,678.35 in CDBG, $1,092,341.87
in HOME, and $229,279.65 in ESG
funds.

As a condition to receiving these funds, the City must submit a OneYear Annual Action Plan to HUD each year explaining how it intends

community development, affordable
housing, and homelessness
prevention needs.

The City has prepared a draft of the
Fiscal Year (FY) 2026-2027 Annual
Action Plan as required by HUD.

Citizens are encouraged to review the draft FY2026-2027 Annual Action Plan. Copies of the Draft FY 2026-

PUBLIC HEARING
City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date: May 6, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Gabriel Elliott, Director of Community Development & Housing Department: Community Development & Housing
Subject: Introduction of Ordinance No. MC XXX Amending Various Sections of Title 15 of the San Bernardino Municipal Code Adopting the New (2025) Building Code (All Wards)
(Staff is Requesting to Continue this Item to June 3, 2026) Recommendation:

It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California take the following action:

1. Hold a Public Hearing; and

2. Introduce and read by title only and waive further reading of Ordinance No. MCxxx of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, adopting the new Municipal Code language and approve use of the new 2025 California Building Code and other minor changes to Chapter 15 of the San Bernardino Municipal Code; and

3. Schedule Ordinance No. MC-xxx for Adoption on June 17, 2026.

City Manager's Comments
Recommend continuing the Public Hearing to the regular meeting of June 3, 2026.

Executive Summary
The adoption of the recommended ordinance will reconcile the City’s plan check practices with the current California State Building Code (2025) rather than the 2022 California State Building Code reflected in the current Municipal Code.

Background
On January 1, 2026, the new California State Building Codes were implemented Statewide in all jurisdictions. However, the City of San Bernardino did not adopt the new code at that time. The City must now adopt the new Building Codes as required by Packet Page. 116
State law.

Discussion
The proposed changes to the San Bernardino Municipal Code are strictly for the purpose of adopting the new 2025 Statewide Building Code. Additionally, the proposed update will maintain the removal of language that allows for Temporary Certificates of Occupancy as it was adopted by the Mayor and City Council when the 2022 update was approved in 2024. The City’s Building & Safety Division does not allow for bonding and Temporary Certificates. This is due to previous and ongoing complications with the issuance of these temporary certificates and the required bonding associated with the certificates.

Attachments 3 is Ordinance No. MC – 1643, approved by the Mayor and City Council for the 2022 Building Code update, and Attachment 4 is page 32 of Ordinance No. MC 1643, indicating the removal of the issuance of Temporary Certificates of Occupancy, and the reason behind it.

Table 1 below provides a summary of the proposed changes to Chapter 15 of the Municipal Code
TABLE 1: SUMMARY OF PROPOSED MUNICIPAL CODE CHANGES
Specific
language
changes
• All references to the 2022 California Building Codes will be changed to reflect the 2025 California Codes
Language
removed and
added
• Section 15.20.070 will be removed (Temporary
Certificates of Occupancy)
• Section 15.20.030 will be added (expressly prohibiting Temporary Certificates of Occupancy)
Other sections
removed
• Section 15.34 will be removed as this language exists in the Development Code and is redundant and misplaced
to be in the construction sections of the Municipal Code. 2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
The request for adoption of the proposed new Building Code aligns with Goal No. 1e:

Minimize risk and litigation exposure and Goal No. 4b: Update the General Plan and Development Code. Updating the City’s Building Code is required by State Law and would bring the City in compliance with current building code standards.

Fiscal Impact
There is no General Fund impact associated with this action.

Conclusion
Packet Page. 117
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California take the following action:

1. Hold a Public Hearing; and

2. Introduce and read by title only and waive further reading of Ordinance No. MCxxx of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, adopting the new Municipal Code language and approve use of the new 2025 California Building Code and other minor changes to Chapter 15 of the San Bernardino Municipal Code.

City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date: May 6, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Gabriel Elliott, Director of Community Development and Housing Michael Rosales, Senior Planner
Department: Community Development & Housing Department
Subject: Specific Plan Amendment 23-01 and Subdivision 23-05 (Tentative Tract Map 20595) University Hills Specific Plan Recommendation:

It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California:

1. Adopt Resolution 2026-042 approving Subdivision No. 23-05 (Tentative Tract Map No. 20595) to allow the subdivision of a 404.3-acre site into 327 single-family residential lots; and adopting the Addendum to the Final Subsequent Environmental Impact Report and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (SCH #2007071155) in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act.

2. Introduce, read by title only, and waive further reading of Ordinance No. MC-1664 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California (a) Approving Specific Plan Amendment 23-01, amending the development standards and guidelines of the original development plan and reducing the number of proposed single-family residential lots from 980 to 327 within the University Hills Specific Plan (APNs: 0265-041-12, 0265-051-12 and -13; 0265-061-16; 0265-011- 06, -07, and -08; 0265-051-09; and 0265-021-13) (Attachment 5 and 6); and (b) dissolving Development Agreement No. 08-02 (Attachment 1 and 10).

3. Schedule the adoption of Ordinance No. MC-1664 to the regularly scheduled meeting of the Mayor and City Council on May 20, 2026.

City Manager's Comments
The proposed amendment reduces the number of housing units from 980 to 327 total housing units.

Packet Page. 121
Executive Summary
Specific Plan Amendment 23-01 proposes revisions to the land use plan and significantly reduces development intensity within the 404-acre site. The amendment consolidates 24 planning areas into 4; lowers residential density from 20 to 3.1 dwelling units per acre; increases permanent open space from 235 to 300 acres; reduces total units from 980 to 327; updates park concepts; revises circulation to connect Badger Canyon Road to Campus Drive adding emergency access; and updates development standards to emphasize single-family homes (Attachment 5 and 6) Subdivision 23-05 (Tentative Tract Map No. 20595) is requested to allow for the subdivision of a 404.3-acre site into 327 single family lots, along with parcels for landscaping, parks, water quality basins, roads, trails, 46.86 acres of parks and open space, and an additional 300.44 acres of open space preserved within a remainder lot (Attachment 1, 2, 3, and 4).

Development Agreement 08-02 has been requested to be dissolved and removed from the property title and project as obligations outlined in the agreement were not fulfilled.

Background
1993: The Paradise Hills Specific Plan, approved in 1993 and based on the former General Plan, included a certified Environmental Impact Report and proposed a 229- acre development area extending north into Badger Canyon. The plan called for 504 residential units and 175 acres of open space, with two housing types—Foothill Residential at 3.5 units per acre and Hillside Residential at 1 unit per acre—resulting in overall densities of 1.25 and 2.2 units per acre. The Paradise Hills Specific Plan was later revised to cluster development south of the San Andreas Fault, which crosses the property, eliminate development in Upper Badger Canyon, and create a land plan in association with California State University San Bernardino (CSUSB). The project was never built, and no development has occurred on the site since 1993. 2005: After adoption of the new General Plan in 2005, The Paradise Hills Specific Plan was renamed the University Hills Specific Plan (SP-UH) via Resolution 2005-362 adopted November 1, 2005. The University Hills Specific Plan (SP-UH) applied updated goals, policies, and land-use designations to the site which included Residential Suburban (4.5 units/acre) on the southern third, Residential Low (3.1 units/acre) in the center, and Open Space along the northern edge, all designations consistent with the original plan. No movement on the Specific Plan occurred at this time.
2008: The Environmental Review Committee determined that the University Hills Specific Plan could have negative effects on the environment and warranted preparation of a Subsequent Environmental Impact Report. The Draft SEIR was distributed for the 45-day public review period from August 1, 2008 to September 1, 2008. On November 17, 2008 the Mayor and Common Council accepted the Subsequent Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) and adopted the University Hills Specific Plan No. 07-01(Attachment 9).

Packet Page. 122
January 13, 2026: the City of San Bernardino Planning Commission considered Resolution 2026-001 at the duly noticed hearing.

At the Planning Commission meeting there were ten (10) speakers representing the Crestline Soaring Society, a paragliding and hand gliding club, and community members Dolores Armstead and Bobby Long who spoke in opposition to the project.

After the public comments the Planning Commission deliberated and voted the following:

RESULT: APPROVED
MOVER: Commissioner Carlone
SECONDER: Commissioner Pratt
ABSTAIN: None
AYES: I. Garcia, Quiel, Ngalande, Pratt, Carlone, O. Garcia NOES: Dailey, Lopez
ABSENT: Sherrick
The Item was approved (Attachment 7 and 8).

Discussion
The Project site is located within the northern end of the City of San Bernardino, just north of the California State University San Bernardino (CSUSB) campus and several large debris basins maintained by the County of San Bernardino Flood Control District.

The Project site occupies approximately 404 acres of vacant land in the western edge foothills of the San Bernardino Mountains which run for approximately 60 miles east from the Cajon Pass to the Coachella Valley. The elevation of the Project site ranges between 1,600 feet above sea level (ASL) at its southerly boundary to an upper elevation of approximately 2,600 feet ASL. An observatory to the south is located at Badger Hill which is utilized by CSUSB for educational purposes.

The Project consists of the first amendment to the approved University Hills Specific Plan (SP-UH) Project. The original Project was adopted by the City of San Bernardino in 2008. This first amendment of the approved Project is a proposal to (1) adopt the Final Subsequent Environmental Impact Report and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (SCH #2007071155) (Attachment 3), modify the land use plan and reduce the development intensity and residential dwelling units allowed within the 404- acre site, Subdivide for 327 single family lots (Attachment 6), subdivide a 404.3-acre site into 327 single family lots and dissolve and remove Development Agreement 08- 02 from the property title and replace with a Memorandum of Understanding (Attachment 1).

Packet Page. 123
Amendment
Specifically, the amendment would include the following changes:
• Reduce the number of Planning Areas from 24 to 4.
• Reduce the residential density of the Project from a maximum of 20 dwelling units per acre (du/acre) to 3 du/acre.
• Increase the amount of land preserved in perpetuity as open space from approximately 235 acres to approximately 300 acres, to better accommodate environmental site constraints, such as seismic and biological constraints. • Reduce the number of allowed residential dwelling units (DU) from 980 DU to 327 DU.
• Redesign of the conceptual park plans.
• Update the circulation plan to connect Badger Canyon Road south to Campus Drive and add additional emergency vehicle access roads. • Update of development standards and design guidelines to focus on singlefamily residential development.

Approvals associated with the Specific Plan Amendment (SPA) include an amendment to the University Hills Specific Plan (Attachemnt 5) and a Tentative Tract Map (TTM) (Attachment 1):

Subdivision
The Tentative Tract Map is a subdivision proposing to implement the land uses identified in the first amendment to the University Hills Specific Plan (SP-UH).

Subdivision 23-05 (TTM No. 20595) proposes the subdivision of approximately 338.80 acres into 327 single family residential lots with a minimum lot size of 2,750 sq. ft. This includes lots for landscaping, passive park, water quality basin, roadways, trails and

46.86 acres of open space; 300.44 acres will be allotted to additional open space within a remainder lot (Attachment 1).

Pedestrian and Bicycle Connectivity
The amendment would improve the Project site with pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, as follows:
• The Pedestrian and bicycle routes along roadways would incorporate pedestrian amenities such as benches, bike racks, shade structures, and lighting where appropriate.
• Pedestrian connections would link residential neighborhoods with recreation areas.
• Bike racks would be located at strategic points throughout the open space system, such as parks and other recreational amenities, to encourage nonvehicular circulation. Trails would be clearly marked with consistent signage and well-lit with bollard lighting as appropriate.

Packet Page. 124
Roadways, Traffic, and Circulation
The originally approved Project of 2008 was designed with main access (to the site) through the Campus Parkway extension, with Badger Canyon Road (a dirt road) used only as an Emergency Vehicle Access (EVA) route. The current amended Project keeps these same roadways—Campus Parkway extension and EVA No. 1 (Badger Canyon Road)—as part of its land use plan. In addition, the Project would add two new vehicle access points:

Campus Parkway Access:

A new driveway would connect to a future road off Campus Parkway. This new road is expected to link Campus Parkway with North Campus Circle at a future intersection located just north of the existing West Campus Circle/North Campus Circle intersection.

Badger Canyon Road Access:

A second driveway would connect to a future fire access road along EVA No. 1 (Badger Canyon Road). Badger Canyon Road would tie into Devils Canyon Road just north of the current Campus Parkway and Northpark Boulevard/Devils Canyon Road intersection.

Utilities and Infrastructure
The Project presented would require the installation of utilities and infrastructure systems including potable water, water to fight fires, wastewater, storm drainage, electricity, natural gas, street lighting, and sidewalks would be installed to serve the Project. The updated SP-UH includes utility master plans for water, sewer, storm drain, etc. All Project utility connections would be located underground. Eight aboveground Frontier electricity power poles/power lines are located within the Project site. These electric power lines would go underground and relocated away from the residential lots as part of the Project onsite development activities.

Landscaping
Landscaping within Project site would consist of evergreen and deciduous canopy trees with flowering evergreen shrubs and groundcovers. It is intended that the landscaping would provide visual themes and continuity throughout the Project site, enhance desirable views, screen undesirable views, beautify and control erosion of graded slopes exposed to public views, preserve existing landscape material (whenever possible), and enhance interfaces between graded and natural open space areas.

Streetscape elements, such as landscaping, lighting, street furniture, and signage, would create an attractive, consistent, and cohesive community image and would complement the surrounding architectural styles.

Landscaping along major roadways and at Project entries would be designed to create an attractive and cohesive community identity.

Packet Page. 125
Water usage would be minimized through the planting of native and low-water species and the utilization of water-efficient and drip irrigation systems. Medians and parkways would be used for water treatment and to reduce runoff, when possible.

Overall, landscaping would include the installation of shade trees throughout the Project site including fire-safe and drought tolerant landscaping that is located to help reduce the effect of harsh winds, provide shade, and highlight significant features.

The Project would be maintained via Homeowners Association (HOA) agreements and Landscape and Lighting Maintenance Districts (LLMDs).

Recreation Areas
The Project would develop recreation and open space areas as follows:
• Recreation and open space areas would be designed to accommodate the needs of different ages and abilities.
• Canopy trees would be used to provide shade.
• Outdoor furniture would be provided in parks and common open space areas that would complement the surrounding architectural styles, materials, and colors.
• A combination of hard and soft paving would be used depending on the function of the recreational amenities.
• Active areas would utilize turf, grass, and ornamental plantings. Passive areas would primarily be composed of drought-tolerant species.

Lighting
Lighting within the Project is intended to help define vehicular and pedestrian circulation patterns, provide safe pedestrian movement, distinguish community entries and activity areas, and contribute to the overall landscape theme of the community.

The goal is to provide a sense of place by varying fixtures and illumination levels. Due to the proximity of Project site to the CSUSB observatory at Badger Hill, the use of lighting within the community shall not be excessive and would be consistent with the dark sky guidelines suggested by the International Dark Sky Association. Additionally, the Project lighting would implement the following features:
• Streetlights would implement the use of Light-Emitting Diode (LED) in accordance with City Standard No’s, SL-1, SL-2, and SL-3. Also, when more than three streetlights are proposed, a lighting plan would be prepared for all public areas within University Hills in accordance with the City of San Bernardino Street Lighting Design Policies. The lighting plan would establish uniform lighting standards regarding style, materials, and colors to ensure consistent design.

The lighting plan would be submitted to the City’s Public Works Department for review and approval, prior to installation.
• All exterior lights would be shielded and focused on driveways to minimize spill light into the night sky or adjacent properties (residential land uses located Packet Page. 126
approximately 600 feet southeast of the Project site, along North “I” Street). • Exterior lighting would be consistent with City safety and illumination requirements for rural areas. Exterior lighting on homes would be set to automatic timers. Light standards would be energy efficient and in scale with the height and use of the structures on-site.
• Light standards would not exceed 15 feet in height above finish grade. Lighting in parks may exceed this limit where deemed appropriate by the University Hills Design Review Committee and approved by the City. The 15-foot height limit may be waived as deemed necessary by the City Engineer. • Lighting would be decorative, in keeping with the architectural theme of the facility served and shall be located within landscape planter areas. • All lighting, including security lighting, would be directed away from adjoining properties and the public right-of-way.
• Parking areas would have lighting that provides adequate illumination for safety and security. Parking lot lighting fixtures would maintain a minimum of 1 footcandle of illumination at ground level at any location within the parking facility. • The level of lighting would not exceed 0.5 foot-candle at any residential property line or at the perimeter of the developed areas adjacent to the areas designated as Open Space.
• Game-court lighting is permitted on a case-by-case basis. Prior to installation, all game court lighting shall be reviewed and approved by the City of San Bernardino and any other responsible governing agency. Court lighting fixtures shall not exceed 30 feet in height.
• Exterior lighting may be used to illuminate significant exterior features and landscaping.

Off-site Improvements to the Project:

Offsite street improvements would include drainage, water, and sewer improvements.

A fuel modification zone would be constructed on San Bernardino County Flood Control properties within public easement and reservoirs. The Project would also require the construction and realignment of main ingress and egress roads, and EVA roadway alignments.

Construction Schedule
The Project does not contain a specific phasing plan or construction schedule for the Project; however, the Project would include backbone infrastructure that would include roads, water, and sewer lines prior to developing any planning areas. The Project site preparation is anticipated to occur over a period of 2 years, which the Specific Plan Amendment identified as 2027 to 2029. These timeframes are also assumed for air quality modeling purposes. However, these timeframes are subject to changes depending on various factors, including economic conditions and market demand.

Development Agreement 08-02
The applicant has requested Development Agreement 08-02 to be dissolved and removed from the property title. Section 3.1.1 within the agreement defines the “5 Year Performance Plan,” requiring that within the first five years of the Effective date of Packet Page. 127
4/19/2012, off-site rights of way “must have been acquired,” construction plans for the backbone infrastructure “shall be submitted” and deemed complete plans for the first phase of residential structures and park “shall have been submitted.” None of these mandatory requirements were satisfied, so the developer failed to meet the obligations under Section 3.1.1. As a result of the failure to meet these obligations, the Development Agreement shall be terminated per Section 3.2.

In addition to the above, terms within Development Agreement 08-02 are no longer applicable to the proposed Specific Plan Amendment. Such terms include the City maintenance of the roadways and landscape areas, the provision of public parks and buildings, vested impact fee schedules, and the provision of multifamily housing including student/faculty housing.

In place of Development Agreement 08-02 there will be a Memorandum of Understanding as the expired Development Agreement referenced separate agreements between California State University San Bernardino (CSUSB) and the original developer. To preserve CSUSB’s intended protections and interests regarding roadway access, maintenance, open space access, and safeguards for campus facilities, Planning Conditions of Approval were incorporated into the Resolution as follows:
(Added as number 18) COA1: Prior to recordation of the Final Map or the issuance of building permits, whichever comes first, the applicant/developer/property owner shall provide a copy of a recorded agreement between applicant/developer/property owner and California State University, San Bernardino for access into the University Hills project for limited, educational purposes.
(Added as number 19) COA 2: Prior to recordation of the Final Map or the issuance of building permits, whichever comes first, the applicant/developer/property owner shall obtain easements or acquire all property necessary from the California State University, San Bernardino, San Bernardino County Flood Control, and any other property owner necessary to provide access to the site from an existing public right of way.
(Added as number 20) COA 3: Prior to recordation of the Final Map or the issuance of building permits, whichever comes first, the applicant/developer/property owner shall enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), or any other agreement deemed appropriate by both parties, with California State University, San Bernardino to address a variety of issues that could include access rights and conditions, construction management and campus protection, fault and land laboratory access, lighting and observatory protection, agency review and approval, term and termination, and dispute resolution. A current draft of the MOU will be included for reference as part of the staff report.
(Amended) COA 8: The applicant shall coordinate with other outside agencies including but not limited to California State University, San Bernardino, San Bernardino Packet Page. 128
County Flood Control, and San Bernardino County Fire.

If applicable, the Burrowing Owl Plan shall describe proposed avoidance, relocation, monitoring, minimization, and/or mitigation actions. The Burrowing Owl Plan shall include the number and location of occupied burrow sites and details on proposed buffers if avoiding the burrowing owls or information on the adjacent or nearby suitable habitat available nearby for relocation, details regarding the creation and funding of artificial burrows (numbers, location, and type of burrows) and management activities for relocated owls shall also be included in the Burrowing Owl Plan. The City shall implement the Burrowing Owl Plan following CDFW review and approval. If vegetation removal or ground disturbance begins within 30 days of the focused survey, no pre-construction survey would be required. If vegetation removal or ground disturbance activities begin after 30 days of the focused survey, a subsequent pre-construction survey would be required.

MM BIO-1c: Nesting Birds. If trees or large shrubs (over 4 feet in height) will be removed during the nesting season (February 1 through August 31), a qualified biologist shall conduct a nesting bird survey no more than 30 days prior to any disturbance to identify any potential nesting activity. If passerine birds are found to be nesting, or there is evidence of nesting behavior within 250 feet of the impact area, the biologist shall determine an appropriate buffer that shall be required around the nests. No vegetation removal or ground disturbance would occur within this buffer. For raptor species – birds of prey (e.g., hawks and owls) – this buffer would generally be 500 feet. A qualified biologist shall monitor the nests closely until it is determined that the nests are no longer active, at which time construction activities may commence within the buffer area.

It is the preference of YSMN that removed cultural material be reburied as close to the original find location as possible. However, should reburial within/near the original find location during project implementation not be feasible, then a reburial location for future reburial shall be decided upon by YSMN, the landowner, and the Lead Agency, and all finds shall be reburied within this location.

Additionally, in this case, reburial shall not occur until all grounddisturbing activities associated with the project have been completed, all monitoring has ceased, all cataloguing and basic recordation of cultural resources have been completed, and a final monitoring report has been issued to Lead Agency, CHRIS, and YSMN.

All reburials are subject to a reburial agreement that shall be developed between the landowner and YSMN outlining the
determined reburial process/location and shall include measures and provisions to protect the reburial area from any future impacts.

Should it occur that avoidance, preservation in place, and on-site reburial are not an option for treatment, the landowner shall relinquish all ownership and rights to this material and confer with YSMN to identify an American Association of Museums (AAM)- accredited facility within the County that can accession the materials into their permanent collections and provide for the proper care of these objects in accordance with the 1993 CA Curation Guidelines.  A curation agreement with an appropriate qualified repository shall be developed between the landowner and museum that legally and physically transfers the collections and associated records to the facility.  This agreement shall stipulate the payment of fees necessary for permanent curation of the collections and associated records and the obligation of the Project developer/applicant to pay for those fees.

All draft records/reports containing the significance and treatment findings and data recovery results shall be prepared by the archaeologist and submitted to the Lead Agency and YSMN for their review and comment. After approval from all parties, the final reports and site/isolate records are to be submitted to the local CHRIS Information Center, the Lead Agency, and YSMN.

Re: DA Removal Justification Letter
University Hills Specific Plan
Badger Canyon Road & W Frontline Road
Dear Mrs. Sanchez,
We appreciate your continued assistance with our revitalization of the University Hills Specific Plan. Your team’s engagement and responsiveness has been monumental in helping us tailor the revised site plan to fit the needs of the community.

Pursuant to continued conversations with city staff, we hereby formally request to remove the previous Development Agreement from title for the reasons below:

Significant Changes to Design Standards
The provisions of the previous agreement no longer apply since we no longer satisfy Section 1.1 of developing the project “in accordance with the Project Approvals” from 2012, given we are changing the density and intensity of use, size of buildings, zoning standards, and the size of the dedicated mitigation land area. The unit count has been significantly reduced from 980 medium to high density units to 437 single-family homes and the permanent open space acreage has grown from 235 to 251 acres.

Our unit mix below, no longer comprises 515 two-story townhomes. • 2,750 (50’ wide x 55’ deep) square foot lots
• 3,600 (40’ wide x 90’ deep) square foot lots
• 4,500 (50’ wide x 90’ deep) square foot lots
5-Year Performance Requirement
The project is also out of compliance with Section 3.1.1 and Exhibit F which states:

Prior to the fifth anniversary of the effective date [April 19, 2012] of the development agreement the Owner/Developer shall:

Acquire the necessary rights (easements, licenses, rights of way, encroachment permits, etc) to construct the Phase 1 Infrastructure, including roads, intersections, drainage facilities, slopes, fuel [modification] areas, water storage tank and water lines.

Complete a full submittal of completed construction plans, which will include the civil engineering and landscape architecture, for a phase of single family homes consisting of at least 25 lots, with an associated park.

THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO DO ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

Packet Page. 198
ORDINANCE NO. MC-1664
3 SECTION 1. The above recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by this reference.

SECTION 2. Compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act. Based on the Addendum, the EIRs, Environmental Findings, Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Programs, the Statement of Overriding Considerations, and all related information presented to the City Council, the City Council finds that the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR is not required because the modification specified in the Addendum: (1) does not constitute substantial changes to the Project that will require major revisions of the 2008 SFEIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; (2) does not constitute substantial changes with respect to the circumstances under which the Project is administered that will require major revisions of the 2008 SFEIR due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of the previously identified significant effects; and (3) does not contain new information of substantial importance that was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the 2008 SFEIR was certified, that shows any of the following: (a) the modification will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the 2008 SFEIR; (b) significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the 2008 SFEIR; (c) mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the Project, but the City Council declined to adopt such measures; or (d) mitigation measures or alternatives considerably different from those analyzed in the 2008 SFEIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but which the City Council declined to adopt.

SECTION 3. Findings of Fact – Specific Plan Amendment 23-01 Finding No. 1: The proposed amendment is consistent with the General Plan.

Finding of Fact: The University Hills Specific Plan (SP-UH) is a comprehensive land use and zoning document encompassing approximately 404 acres, of which approximately 42 percent (169.5 acres) were dedicated for construction of 980 residential dwelling units and related uses. The balance of the UHSP included parks and recreational uses (10.2 acres), among streets, lighting, landscaping, natural open space (234.8 acres) to the north of the developed area, among other common features generally associated with residential communities.

Specific Plan Amendment 23-01 proposes to amend development standards and guidelines of the original development plan and reduce the number of proposed single-family residential lots from 980 to 327 within the University Hills Specific Plan. The following demonstrates how the “Project” meets the General Plan Goals and Policies:

Finding No. 2: The proposed amendment would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City.

Finding of Fact: The proposed Specific Plan Amendment would establish a land use and development framework to serve as a marketing tool for attracting developers to key sites and for boosting economic development. The Specific Plan is dedicated to creating a mixed-use neighborhood that compliments the surrounding community by type and quality of development. The project provides quality homes and options for interested parties looking to relocate to the area. Additionally, the University Hills Specific Plan promotes water and energy conservation through sustainable development requirements for drought tolerant landscaping, guidelines for implementing renewable energy sources for utilities, and creating a walkable and convenient neighborhood with open spaces for families to gather. Therefore, the proposed Specific Plan will not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City.

Finding No. 3: The proposed amendment would maintain the appropriate balance of land uses within the City.

Finding of Fact: The original University Hills Specific Plan (SP-UH) adopted in November of 2008 was a comprehensive land use and zoning document encompassing Packet Page. 201
ORDINANCE NO. MC-1664
6 approximately 404 acres, of which approximately 42 percent (169.5 acres) was dedicated to the construction of 980 residential dwelling units and related uses. The remaining area of the SP-UH included parks and recreational uses (10.2 acres), as well as streets, lighting, landscaping, and natural open space (234.8 acres) located north of the developed area, along with other common features generally associated with residential communities. Specific Plan Amendment 23-01 proposes to amend the development standards and guidelines of the original development plan per the following:
• Reduce the number of Planning Areas from 24 to 4.
• Reduce the residential density of the Project from a
maximum of 20 dwelling units per acre (du/acre) to 3 per du/acre.
• Increase the amount of land preserved in perpetuity as open space to better accommodate environmental site constraints, such as seismic and biological constraints from
approximately 235 acres to approximately 300 acres.
• Reduce the number of allowed residential dwelling units (DU) from 980 DU to 327 DU.
• Redesign of the conceptual park plans.
• Update the circulation plan to connect Badger Canyon Road south to Campus Drive and add additional emergency
vehicle access roads.
• Update of development standards and design guidelines to focus on single-family residential development.

Therefore, as presented Specific Plan Amendment 23-01 is physically suitable for the requested land use designations and the anticipated land use developments, which would maintain the appropriate balance of land uses within the City.

Finding No. 4: The proposed plan shall ensure development of desirable character which will be compatible with existing and proposed development in the surrounding neighborhood.

Finding of Fact: The University Hills Specific Plan (SP-UH) has been created with the great consideration for the surrounding neighborhood and future development of the Specific Plan area will create a low density, walkable neighborhood with open spaces for children and families to enjoy, while maintaining high quality design for the “Project” in whole. Specific Plan Amendment 23-01 proposes to amend the development standards and guidelines of the original development plan by reducing the number of Planning Areas from 24 to 4 and lowering the residential density of the Project from a maximum of 20 dwelling units per acre to 3 dwelling units per acre. The Amendment also increases the amount of land preserved in perpetuity as open space from approximately 235 acres to approximately 300 acres to better accommodate Packet Page. 202
ORDINANCE NO. MC-1664
7 environmental site constraints, including seismic and biological constraints.

In addition, the Amendment reduces the number of allowed residential dwelling units from 980 to 327, includes a redesign of the conceptual park plans, and updates the circulation plan to connect Badger Canyon Road south to Campus Drive while adding additional emergency vehicle access roads. Lastly, the Amendment updates development standards and design guidelines to focus on single-family residential development.

Finding No. 5: The proposed plan will contribute to a balance of land uses so that local residents may work and shop in the community in which they live.

Finding of Fact: The University Hills Specific Plan (SP-UH) has been created with consideration for the surrounding neighborhood, and future development of the Specific Plan area is intended to create a low-density, walkable neighborhood with open spaces for children and families to enjoy, while maintaining high-quality design for the Project as a whole.

Specific Plan Amendment 23-01 proposes to amend the development standards and guidelines of the original development plan by reducing the number of Planning Areas from 24 to 4 and lowering the residential density of the Project from a maximum of 20 dwelling units per acre to 3 dwelling units per acre.

INTRODUCTION
Chapter 1: Introduction
Project Summary
Nestled in the foothills of the San Bernardino Mountains between the San Bernardino National Forest and California State University, San Bernardino (CSUSB), University Hills is a distinctive 404-acre residential community that offers a unique living environment with a direct and long-lasting relationship with, near to the University, with access to trails and open space, and where the majority of the site is left untouched.

DevelopmentThe City of San Bernadino originally adopted the University Hills Specific Plan in 2008. The original vision for the project area approved under the Specific Plan included a development of 980 residences consisting of estate, single-family detached, small lot detached, cluster court homes, townhomes and stacked flats.

Since the adoption of the original Specific Plan, a new vision for the property has been developed which envisions less density, a design that is more sensitive to physical site constraints, and additional conservation of open space. Therefore, the University Hills Specific Plan is being amended to revise the residential types and layouts, and to reduce the developed area resulting in the conservation of additional open space.

Under the Amended University Hills Specific Plan, development in University Hills is concentrated on the lower elevations of the site and encompasses only 4225 percent, or 104 acres of the total site (170 acres) while the remaining 5875 percent, 300 acres, remains as open space. natural, permanent open space (not including parks and open space areas within the developed 104 acres). This generous 235-acre open space area will be used by CSUSBpreserved as a laboratory to study the local biology, habitat, and geologynatural open space.

University Hills accommodates 980 residences 327 single family-detached housing on a variety of lot sizes, situated in several neighborhoodsa neighborhood, which areis set apart by open space corridors, drainage ways, and sloped areas, and is interconnected to surrounding open spaces by a series of pathways and roadways.

University Hills accommodates a range of living opportunities including estate, singlefamily detached, small-lot detached, cluster court homes, townhomes, and stacked flats. In addition, University Hills provides
four acres that will be dedicated to CSUSB
and can accommodate up to 60 units for
exclusive use as faculty housing.

University Hills also contains
approximately 10347 acres of parks,
including a 2-acre private community
clubhouse, 5-acre California Walnut Grove
Linear Park, two neighborhood parks,open
space. This total consists of 300 acres of
permanent natural open space and 47
acres of open space within the 2.1-acre
Glider Park, which provides a safe approach

approximately 8 acres are designated as
parks, and the adjacent Andy Jackson
Airparkremaining 39 acres consist of
parkways, landscaped slopes, water
quality basins, and other communityserving landscaped areas.

University Hills contains several significant
natural features that have led to a carefully
customized land plan. The San Andreas
Fault system runs the length of the project
and generally separates the developed and
undeveloped portions of the project. In
addition, several natural drainage ways
