PUBLIC HEARING
City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date: June 3, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Gabriel Elliott, Director of Community Development & Housing Department: Community Development & Housing
Subject: Continuation of a Public Hearing from May 6, 2026 - 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 17, 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 July 15, 2026.

City Manager's Comments
Recommend continuing the Public Hearing to the regular meeting of June 17, 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 Packet Page. 28
code at that time. The City must now adopt the new Building Codes as required by 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.

City Manager's Comments
N/A
Packet Page. 37
Executive Summary
This item was continued from the May 6, 2026 Mayor and City Council meeting to address issues raised by California State University, San Bernardino. Those issues have since been resolved.

Additional comments were submitted by the Crestline Soaring Society Hang Gliders Association regarding safety concerns associated with hang glider takeoff and landing operations near the project area at Andy Jackson Airpark. These concerns were previously analyzed in the 2008 Subsequent Final Environmental Impact Report (Attachment 10 and 13 pages 44-63), which concluded the following findings remain valid today:
• Historical records indicate the Paradise Hills/University Hills Specific Plan was approved by the City on February 15, 1993, prior to the Department of Water Resources’ (DWR) March 24, 1993 approval of the relocated hang glider landing zone adjacent to the project boundaries. Relocation was part of mitigation efforts for the construction of the Hydroelectric Plant (Attachment 13 pages 44-63). • Operations at the Andy Jackson Airpark conflict with City of San Bernardino Development Code Section 12.88 (MC 12.88.10) which prohibits hang gliding within and over City limits unless specifically approved by the Mayor and City Council. Meaning any flights need to occur over the DWR property only, airspace included (Attachment 10 and 13 pages 44-63).
• The 2008 Subsequent Environmental Impact Report further noted that the airpark had never received formal City authorization, land use approval, business licensing, or permits required under the City Municipal or Development Code, that is still the case as of today (Attachment 13 pages 44-63).

The Applicant and the City have coordinated extensively with the California Department of Water Resources, including meetings and correspondence. In a letter dated April 15, 2026 (Attachment 12-Public Comments), DWR confirmed that its obligations under the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission license related to relocation of the airpark were fully satisfied in 1993. DWR further stated that Article 410 imposed only a one-time mitigation requirement, with no continuing obligations related to the airpark, and therefore DWR has no further comments regarding approval of the University Hills Development (Attachment 12).

The concerns raised regarding hang gliding operations and airpark activities were previously evaluated and addressed through the environmental review process, remain unchanged from prior findings, and do not constitute a new or unresolved issue affecting approval of the University Hills Development project.

Packet Page. 38
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 Packet Page. 39
Specific Plan No. 07-01(Attachment 9 and 10).

January 13, 2026: the City of San Bernardino Planning Commission considered Resolution 2026-001 at the duly noticed hearing (Attachment 7 and 8).

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).

May 6, 2026: the Mayor and City Council considered Resolution 2026-042 and Ordinance No. MC-1664, and after public testimony voted unanimously to continue the Specific Plan Amendment 23-01 and Subdivision 23-05 to the June 3, 2026 Regularly scheduled meeting of the Mayor and City Council. The motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Knaus and seconded by Council Member Sánchez (Attachment 16).

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- Packet Page. 40
02 from the property title (Attachment 1).

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 (Attachment 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. 41
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. 42
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. 43
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. 44
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 20 COA): 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 21 COA) : 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 22 COA): 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.
(Amendment to COA 8): The applicant shall coordinate with other outside agencies including but not limited to California State University, San Bernardino, San Bernardino County Flood Control, and San Bernardino County Fire.

Packet Page. 45
All required approvals, permits, and clearances shall be obtained from all outside agencies prior to recordation of the final map and prior to issuance of grading, building, and occupancy permits, as applicable, for the project. Examples include but are not limited to encroachment permits, access agreements or Memorandums of Understanding.

In addition, CSUSB has prepared the Memorandum of Understanding to outline the key deal points between CSUSB and Encore University hills, LLC. These provisions will ultimately be formalized through an encroachment agreement, which will be recorded against the property title.

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.

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

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.

Packet Page. 109
ORDINANCE NO. MC-1664
4 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:

Land Use Element

2.5 Enhance the Aesthetic Quality of Land Uses and Structures in San Bernardino.

The Specific Plan Design Guidelines provide for the creation of unique, quality residential development.

Housing Element
Policy 1.3 Design Features. Require new and rehabilitated housing to be well designed, with appropriate attention to site planning, materials and colors, building treatments, landscaping, open space, parking, and sustainable green designs. The Addendum to the University Specific Plan will increase the amount of land preserved in perpetuity as open space, Update the Parks Plan, and update the circulation to accommodate the project.

Community Design Element

5.3 Recognize Unique Features in Individual Districts and Neighborhoods and Develop a Program to Create Unifying Design Themes to Identify Areas Throughout the City. The Specific Plan Design Guidelines provide for the creation of unique, quality residential and commercial development.

ORDINANCE NO. MC-1664
5 Parks, Recreational and Trails Element

Utilities Element

9.1 Provide a System of Wastewater Collection and Treatment Facilities that will Adequately Convey and Treat wastewater Generated by Existing and Future Development in the City’s Service Area. The University Hills Specific Plan provides for the creation of a wastewater system that will tie into existing facilities.

9.4 Provide Appropriate Storm Drain and Flood Control Facilities where Necessary. The University Hills Specific Plan provides for the creation of a drainage system that will tie into existing facilities.

Safety Element

10.5 Reduce Urban Run-Off from New and Existing Development.

The Specific Plan Design Guidelines provide a variety of measures to reduce urban run-off, including a drainage basin and bio-swales.

Energy and Water Conservation Element

13.1 Conserve Scarce Energy Resources. The University Hills Specific Plan contains a chapter on Sustainable Guidelines to reduce energy and water use and conserve natural resources.

Noise Element

14.1 Ensure that Residents are Protected from Excessive Noise Through Careful Land Planning. Through site planning and construction techniques, residents will be protected from excessive noise.

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.

Packet Page. 111
ORDINANCE NO. MC-1664
6 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 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.

Packet Page. 112
ORDINANCE NO. MC-1664
7 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 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.

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 environmental site constraints, including seismic and biological constraints.

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

University Hills Specific Plan Page 1-3
Purpose of the Specific Plan
The purpose of the University Hills Specific Plan is to provide unique development standards and guidelines to allow the creation of a distinct high-quality residential community. The Specific Plan will provide the regulatory, administrative, and implementation tools necessary to realize University Hills and serve as the long-range guide for its development. The Design Guidelines and Standards contained in this Specific Plan ensure that development is cohesive and high-quality, while still allowing flexibility for creative design on the project site. The Development Regulations establish permitted uses, objective development standards, and general development criteria.

The California Government Code, Section 65450 through 65457, establishes the authority for cities and counties to adopt specific plans by resolution as policy or by ordinance as regulation, identify the required contents of a specific plan, and mandate consistency with the General Plan. A specific plan enables enhanced or innovative development and design options not possible under conventional zoning controls. The University Hills Specific Plan is a regulatory document providing a means of implementing a site-specific development proposal in accordance with the goals and policies of the City of San Bernardino General Plan.

The City of San Bernardino Municipal Code Chapter 19.64 describes the purpose, requirements, regulations, and procedure for preparation of a specific plan within the City. As required by the California Government Code, a General Plan Consistency Analysis has been prepared for this Specific Plan (see Appendix B).C). The University Hills Specific Plan is consistent with the applicable goals and policies of the City of San Bernadino General Plan. The provisions and regulations contained in the Specific Plan apply to the University Hills project area and shall prevail in instances of conflict with the provisions and regulations of the San Bernadino Municipal Code (SBMC) which includes the City of San Bernardino Development Code that regulates the same subject matter. Where the Specific Plan is silent on an issue, the regulations and standards contained in the SBMC shall apply.

Project Location
As shown in Figure 1-.1, Regional Location, University Hills is on the northern edge of the City of San Bernardino in the foothills of the San Bernardino Mountains overlooking the Cajon Creek Wash, CSUSB, and the Glen Helen Regional Park.

As shown in Figure 1-.2, Local Vicinity, University Hills is generally bound on the south by CSUSB and Badger Hill, west by Devil’s Canyon Flood Control Basin, and north and east by the San Bernardino National Forest. Primary access to University Hills will be from Campus Parkway, which will eventually connect directly with Interstate 215 (I-215), and Little Mountain Drive.).

Relationship to Other Plans
General Plan
Specific plans are required to be consistent with the goals and policies of the governing General Plan. The General Plan Consistency Analysis, included as Appendix BC, discusses how the project implements and exemplifies the goals and policies of the City of San Bernardino General Plan.

Future subdivisions, building permits, and public works projects within the University Hills Specific Plan area must be consistent with this Specific Plan (Government Code, Sections 65455, 66473.5, 65860, and 65401). All projects that are found to be consistent with this Specific Plan will likewise be deemed consistent with the City’s General Plan.

University Hills is a significant opportunity for the City to achieve many goals described in its General Plan, such as providing housing types suitable for a variety of lifestylesdistinct neighborhoods and incomes.preserving natural features. A detailed description of conformance with the City’s goals is provided in Appendix B.C.

A General Plan Amendment will be processed to update the City of San Bernadino’s General Plan Land Use Map to reflect the land uses and densities proposed by the amended Specific Plan Land Use Plan.

Zoning
Paradise Hills Specific Plan
The project site was formerly known as The Paradise Hills Specific Plan and approved in 1993 but never built. The Paradise Hills Specific Plan provided direction for the development of a 504-unit residential community with a development footprint of 229 acres and 175 acres of permanent open space.

Introduction
The University Hills Specific Plan replacesreplaced the Paradise Hills Specific Plan when it was adopted in 2008 and included a new land use map, zoning districts, development standards, design guidelines, and infrastructure requirements for the development of the site.

This amendment to the Specific Plan replaces the originally adopted Specific Plan from 2008 and includes thea new land use map, zoning districts, development standards, design guidelines, and infrastructure requirements for the development of the site.

University District Specific Plan
University Hills is also located within the University District Specific Plan, which was approved November 1, 2005. The University District Specific Plan acts as the umbrella document for a 6,375-acre area, of which University Hills is a part. The intent of the University District Specific Plan is to “lay a foundation for the integration of the University into the surrounding community.” The University District Specific Plan focuses on creating:
■ Pedestrian-oriented developments
■ A seamless connection between the community and University ■ A “university town”
■ Enhanced link to regional recreation
■ An efficient vehicular and pedestrian system
■ A range of housing types to accommodate a wide range of population, including University faculty and staff.
■ Quality housing
The University District Specific Plan assumed the Paradise Hills Specific Plan in its land use plan and was amended to reflect the land plan for University Hills in conjunction with this project. As part of this amendment, the University District Specific Plan will be amended once more to reflect the new land use plan.

Environmental Impact Report
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) was adopted to inform decision makers, staff, and the public about the potential environmental impacts of development. The CEQA process provides an opportunity to address potential impacts in order to maintain California’s environmental quality. Compliance with CEQA requires that a project be evaluated for potential impacts before being approved. The adoption of a specific plan or amendment to a specific plan is a project subject to CEQA.

In accordance with CEQA, the City
haspreviously prepared a subsequent
Environmental Impact Report (State
Clearinghouse No. 2007071155) to
accompany the University Hills Specific
Plan. The subsequent EIR analyzes the
project and its alternatives to identify
potential significant environmental
impacts associated with the future of the
University Hills Specific Plan area. The
subsequent EIR is incorporated into this
Specific Plan by reference and is attached
under separate cover.

The amendment to the Specific Plan significantly reduces the density, conserves more open space, and generally reduces impacts identified in the adopted subsequent Environmental Impact Report (EIR). Therefore, an Addendum to the EIR has been prepared pursuant to Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines. The addendum to the EIR is incorporated into this Specific Plan by reference and is attached under separate cover, along with the subsequent EIR adopted in 2008.

Surrounding Environment
The University Hills project site is located in the foothills of the San Bernardino Mountains between the San Bernardino National Forest and CSUSB. In addition to these significant features, the geologic and hydraulic forces that have shaped the site, on and off-site infrastructure, and community concerns are critical to understanding the site.

San Bernardino Mountains
University Hills sits on the western flank of the San Bernardino Mountains, which run for approximately 60 miles east from the Cajon Pass to the Coachella Valley. The highest peak in the range is Mount San Gorgonio, which has an elevation of 11,501.6 ft and is the highest peak in southern California. Most of the range is located within the San Bernardino National Forest.

The site itself is situated between the San Bernardino Mountains on the north and the much smaller Badger Hill on the south.

Seismic Faults
University Hills is located within the San Andreas Fault zone and includes traces of active faulting associated with the San Andreas Fault. Accordingly, prior to the creation of the 2008 land plan, three (3) geologic studies, including extensive on-site studies and trenching, were conducted to pinpoint earthquake faults and geologic conditions within University Hills (see EIR appendices). In particular, eighteen18 trenches were dug in a north-south orientation to locate all fault trends within the site. As shown on Figure 1-.3, three (3) active faults were mapped in University Hills.

The main fault is the South Branch of the San Andreas Fault, which runs in an east–west direction along the entire length of the project. This fault shapes the physical environment of the site and is the dividing line between steep and shallow slopes on the site. North of the South Branch are areas with slopes that are generally greater than 15 percent while south of the South Branch slopes are 0–15 percent.

Approximately 600 feet north of the South Branch, is the Mill Creek Fault, which is not considered active, but, because of proximity to other faults, could result in ruptures. The third fault, the North Branch San Andreas Fault is located approximately 1,600 feet north of the South Branch and is considered active.

The Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Act, which was passed in 1972, is intended to prevent the construction of buildings used for human occupancy on active faults. The South and North Branches of the San Andreas Fault are active faults and, for purposes of this Specific Plan, the Formatted ...

Topography
University Hills sits in the foothills on the western edge of the San Bernardino Mountains. The elevation of the site ranges from approximately 1,600 feet above sea level at its southerly boundary to an upper elevation of approximately 2,600 feet.

As shown in Figure 1-4, the topography of the site varies from relatively flat in the southwest region to fairly steep and mountainous in the northern portion of the site. The South Branch of the San Andreas Fault divides the site into two basic geologic zones. To the south of the fault, an older alluvial plain slopes gradually to the southwest at an average gradient of 10 percent.

To the north of the fault, the terrain is fairly steep as it rises into the San Bernardino National Forest with slope gradients varying from 15 to 80 percent.

Hillside Management Overlay
The Univer
south with
Bernardin
and Badg
The City has established the Hillside Management Overlay District to ensure
change in
that development occurs in a manner that,
“Protects a hillside'shillside’s natural and topographic character and identity, environmental sensitivities, aesthetic qualities, and the public health, safety, and general welfare. This protection is obtained by ensuring that development does not create soil erosion, silting of lower slopes, slide damage, flooding problems, and severe cutting or scarring.

It is the intent to encourage a sensitive form of development while still allowing for residential uses which complement the natural and visual character of the City and its hillsides.” The Hillside Management Overlay applies to average slopes of 15 percent or greater. Slopes less than 15 percent at the base of the hillsides are excluded from the density and development provisions of the Hillside Management Overlay. Figure 1-.4 shows the areas within University Hills that are subject to the Hillside Management Overlay. The development footprint for University Hills is primarily contained in areas with slopes less than 15 percent. A comparison of the provisions of thisThe University Hills Specific Plan has been designed and provides standards and guidelines to ensure that development within the property occurs consistent with the intent of the Hillside Management Overlay is provided in Appendix D.District.

Slope Stability
Slope failures can be hazardous to buildings, reservoirs, roads, and utilities. Therefore, the impact must be mitigated or structures need to be located in areas that will have the least potential to be impacted by this hazard. Accordingly, extensive on-site studies were conducted by a geologist to pinpoint landslide areas and are contained in the EIR appendices.

High Wind Areas
The City of San Bernardino experiences periods of high velocity winds, especially in the Cajon Pass and at the bottom of canyons.

These winds have been known to cause severe damage to roofs, utility poles, and traffic signals. University Hills is included in the City’s designated High Wind Area, which has certain, appropriate building standards. At the time development occurs, buildings will be required to comply with the building standards for this area and should be designed and oriented to avoid the creation of “wind tunnels” that concentrate gusts in corridors. Wind “breaks” in the form of landscaping, walls, or other architectural features can be used to provide protection from strong winds.

Wildland Fires
Because of the adjacent San Bernardino National Forest, steep slopes, and high winds, the University Hills area is at risk from wildland fires.

Chapter 19.15 of the San Bernardino Development Code, Foothill Fire Zone Overlay District, has been established to, “…mitigate the spread of fire, to help minimize property damage and to reduce the risk to the public health and safety.” The Foothill Fire Zone Overlay District identifies three (3) fire zones with different degrees of hazard based on slope, type of fuel, and natural barriers. The foothill fire zones are:
■ Fire Zone A, Extreme Hazard, includes areas with slopes of 30 percent or greater. ■ Fire Zone B, High Hazard, includes area with slopes of 15–30 percent ■ Fire Zone C, Moderate Hazard, includes those areas with slopes of 0 –15 percent As required by the Foothill Fire Zone, a slope analysis is included with this Specific Plan. Figure 1-6 depicts the three fire zones and theThe limits of development proposed in University Hills. are mostly in Zone C, but have a very high hazard according to CalFire, see Figure 1.6. Areas within the Foothill Fire Zones/ Fire Hazard Zones are required to be developed in a manner that uses proper building separation, landscaping, and building materials; provides adequate emergency access; maintains adequate evacuation routes; and ensures the availability of water resources in the event of a fire.

To ensure the safety of property and lives, as part of the amendment to the University Hills Specific Plan, a detailed fire safety analysis was conducted by FireSafe Planning Solutions and a Fire Protection Plan was prepared (see AppendixC).Dudek. The fire analysis factored in wind patterns, fuel types (vegetation), topography, weather patterns, and historical burn patterns to determine the potential severity of wildfires and appropriate protection methods.

Using the BEHAVE Computer Fire Behavior Prediction and Fuel Modeling System, FireSafe Planning Solutions assumed a worst case scenario of Santa Ana winds (north-east winds) and the prevailing south-west wind to determine potential flame height, rate of spread, and spotting distance.An analysis utilizing the BehavePlus software package was conducted to evaluate fire behavior variables and to objectively predict flame lengths, intensities, and spread rates for five modeling scenarios. These fire scenarios incorporated observed fuel types representing the dominant on-site and off-site vegetation on vacant land to the north, south and west, in addition to slope gradients, and wind and fuel moisture values for both the 50th percentile weather (summer, on-shore winds) and the 97th percentile weather (fall, off-shore winds). Modeling scenario locations were selected to better understand different fire behavior that may be experienced on or adjacent to the Project site. These results were then used to determine the safest combination of preventative measures that will ensure the protection of property and lives. The recommended preventative measures are included as standards in this Specific Plan in the form of fuel modification zones, setbacks, landscaping methods/materials, construction materials/methods, and building protection systems.

Flooding and Drainage
Because University Hills sits on an alluvial plain on the slopes of the San Bernardino Mountains, flooding and drainage are critical factors. A hydrology study, contained in EIR appendices, was conducted by PBS&J in October 2007 to carefully study the drainage patterns affecting the site.

As shown on Figure 1-.7, the site is located on a sort of island, sandwiched between two (2) major drainage areas that direct most of the off-site drainage around the project site. Consequently, the site itself receives limited off-site drainage and the volume of storm flows and flooding are not as great as might otherwise be anticipated. At a regional level, the watershed draining into the project site is surrounded by Devil’s Canyon to the west and north and Waterman Canyon to the east and south, which take the majority of flows from the upper San Bernardino Mountains around University Hills.

Locally, drainage primarily goes to Devil’s Canyon to the northwest and Sycamore Canyon to the east. Devil’s Canyon drains into the existing flood control facilities and continues along Campus Parkway. Sycamore Canyon drains into the existing flood control basin east and south of the project site before continuing south into a covered, concrete-lined channel that crosses Northpark Boulevard in Little MountainDrive.

Also shown on Figure 1-.7, the total on-/off-site area draining into the project site is approximately 900 acres. The most significant on-site drainage is contained within Badger Canyon, which drains an area of approximately 460 acres. Badger Canyon cuts through the middle of the project site and between the western and eastern development areas. It drains into the existing North Badger Basin at the base of Badger Hill, which acts as the first stage basin for collecting debris. Drainage then flows westerly through an existing earthen-sided flood control channel into West Badger Basin before entering a levee and continuing west to Devil’s Canyon.

In addition to Badger Canyon, the University Hills site contains four (4) other

The University Hills site itself drains into both the Badger and Sycamore basins. Approximately 70 percent of the site drains in a westerly direction to the Badger Basin and the remaining 30 percent of the tributary area flows east toward the Sycamore basin.

Also shown on Figure 1-.8 are several drainage seeps, which are formed by groundwater trapped north of the South Branch of the San Andreas Fault. The seeps can lead to minor nuisances or, in extreme cases, slope failure. Development or grading involving a seep will need to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis and appropriate remedial measures taken. In the areas identified with landslide potential, Figure 1-.5, any nearby seeps must be carefully evaluated with the geotechnical evaluations. Potential remedial measures include stabilized fill with a backdrain system and will be determined during the grading permit process.

Water District Pipeline
A 75-inch pipeline owned by the San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District crosses the site southwest–northwest. The pipeline is located within a 50-foot, non-exclusive easement and is depicted on Figure 1-.8. The pipeline and easement will be maintained in place. According to the Water District, the pipeline shall not be covered by more than 20 feet or less than 5 feet of fill. The pipeline easement may be used for roadways, landscaped areas, and parks but not for permanent structures. ict’s

CSUSB
University Hills is located immediately north of CSUSB and its relationship with the campus is a critical consideration for the longrange vision of the City of San Bernardino and the University. Not only is University Hills is accessed through the campus, but somethe CSUSB’s Murillo Family Observatory is located to the south of the site, the University previously held classes useon the project site to study local habitat and geology, and the campus has direct views of the site.

Founded in 1965, CSUSB is the only state university serving the Riverside- San Bernardino area. As of 2007, the University offered more than 70 degrees and certificates through five (5) academic colleges—Arts and Letters, Business and Public Administration, Education, Natural Sciences, and Social and Behavioral Sciences.

The University’s enrollment has been increasing approximately 5 percent each year and as of 2007 it served approximately 17,000 students. The University currently anticipates serving approximately 20,000 students by 2010. The University is also projected to provide 2,800 on-campus studenthousing units. The master plan for CSUSB is shown on Figure 1-9. As seen on the master plan, student housing is planned on the northern portion of the campus, closest to the University Hills project site.

The University serves more than 20,000 students each year and graduates about 4,000 students annually.

As stated in the General Plan and University District Specific Plan, CSUSB A photo o

was created with the input and participation of CSUSB staff through several (top) and workshops and meetings. The guiding vision, objectives, and land plan for the protec University Hills were developed in collaboration with CSUSB staff. In addition, access to University Hills comes from Campus Parkway and Little Mountain Drive, which traverse the campus in existing right-of-way easements. These easements will be maintained for University Hills. The amendment to the University Hills Specific Plan has also been reviewed and discussed with CSUSB staff. It should be noted, that although CSUSB originally expressed a desire to utilize the University Hills open space for research and outdoor classes, CSUSB is reevaluating usage of the property; however, the developer continues to be amenable to the original “Land Laboratory” concept of the original Specific Plan and the area has been designated for open space uses (Planning Area 4).

According to CSUSB, its faculty conducts long- and short-term research on the University Hills site. The University Hills site contains the SanAndreas fault system, seeps, a variety of natural vegetation (e.g., woodland and riparian vegetation, upland chaparral slopes, and sage scrub), and natural drainage areas that present educational opportunities to the biology, geology, geography and environmental studies, and science education departments. Accordingly, CSUSB desires to continue conducting research on the University Hills site and has requested that lands be set aside for this p

Introduction
Views
As noted, University Hills is located on the slopes of the San Bernardino Mountains and enjoys views into the city and valley below.

Development of the site may also be seen from the lower elevations. As shown on Figures 1-.10 and 1-.11, views of the site from the lower elevations are largely blocked by Badger Hill, which is directly south of the project site. As seen in the section views, Figure 1-.11, local topography determines the visibility of the site.

Future development of the site must take into account the views of the site from the surrounding community, and development on the steeper slopes and ridgelines should be avoided to minimize view impacts.

Biology
Biological assessments were conducted in 1990, 1993, and 1994 in conjunction e Canyon with the previous Paradise Hills Specific Plan. Since that time, there have from the beenBetween the adoption of the Paradise Hills Specific Plan and the 2008 University Hills Specific Plan, there were changes on the site that necessitated a reevaluation of the biological the conditions. Namely, the San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat (SBKR) was listed as iately an endangered species and critical habitat designated on the site. The site photo of

In 2005, Natural Resource Assessment, Inc. (NRA) conducted a general biological ction of survey to update the previous studies (see the EIR appendices). NRA nd
tom).
conducted a trapping study for the SBKR, protocol surveys for the California gnatcatcher, and jurisdictional and wetland delineations. The major findings of the updated The survey are as follows:
■ The 2003 Old Fire destroyed much of the original chaparral scrub on the lower alluvial slope, but the habitat appears to be making a complete recovery.
■ When the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) designated critical habitat for the SBKR in 2002, it included approximately 74.77 acres of University Hills. However, the USFWS proposed changes to the critical habitat report was updated in 2007, which would exclude University Hills. Since 2005, no SBKR have been found on the site and 2008 and included in the appendices for the Environmental Impact Report adopted with the original University Hills Specific Plan.
■ When the USFWS designated critical habitat for the gnatcatcher in 2000, it included the University Hills property. However, in 2003 the USFWS proposed that the University Hills property be excluded from the gnatcatcher critical habitat area. This proposed exclusion has not been made final and the 2000 designated critical habitat boundary must be used. The California gnatcatcher was not found on the site.

■ Several sensitive but unlisted species are either recorded or are likely to be present.
■ Badger Canyon and the associated riparian plant communities represent the best quality wetland habitat on site. Other drainages, particularly in the southwest on the alluvial fan, have no wetland habitat.
■ The property is adjacent to undisturbed open space on the north and partially on the south. The southern open space is small and is bordered by development. The remaining sides are either adjacent to development or to otherwise disturbed habitat.

Unauthorized off-road highway use is frequentWith the amendment to the University Hills Specific Plan, the project area was reassessed and an updated Biological Technical Report was prepared due to the amount of time that passed since the previous surveys.

The Biological Technical Report incorporated the findings of the general biological surveys conducted by VCS on June 3, 2021, and the focused surveys for least Bell’s vireo (LBV), coastal California gnatcatcher (CAGN), San Bernardino kangaroo rat (SBKR), and rare plants. Protocol level surveys for the California gnatcatcher were completed in May and June of 2022. Presence/absence trapping study for the San Bernardino Kangaroo Rat and other sensitive small mammals were completed in August and September of 2022 by Kidd Biological, Inc. Rare plant surveys were conducted over several weeks during the blooming period of 2022 by botanist CJ Fotheringham. Focused least Bell’s vireo surveys were conducted in April, May, June, and July 2022 by VCS biologists.

The major findings of the surveys are as follows:

The Project site consists of undisturbed habitat at the foothills of the San Bernardino Mountains.

The Badger Canyon riparian drainage on the property, particularly in the lower alluvial fancentral-eastern portion of the survey area.

There issome off-road use supports high value biological resources associated with the intermittent flowing waters in the canyon.

Many ephemeral drainages are present throughout the survey area to support many other varieties of vegetation communities.

Several native tree and shrub species, a combination of riparian associated vegetation as well as chaparral and scrub vegetation, have established themselves on the sloping habitat of the foothills.

Plummer’s mariposa lily was observed within the areas surveyed and was also previously observed and documented in the Draft EIR.
■ California walnuts and California walnut groves are found onsite. California walnut groves are primarily located in Badger Canyon, but this is more limited to the existingroadsan area of the Project site that will be preserved in its natural state.
