A. ORDINANCE TEXT AMENDMENT NO. 304 - PUBLIC HEARING for the
Planning Commission to consider a recommendation to the City Council on
an Ordinance Text Amendment to add Chapter 8.06 to the Redlands
Municipal Code to establish regulations for the control of noise. Request
submitted by the CITY OF REDLANDS.
Commissioner Miller arrived at 2:05 p.m.
Mr. Dalquest gave a brief presentation on the proposed project. Mr. Dalquest stated that
staff utilized a Noise Control Ordinance obtained from the League of California Cities that
was adopted by the City of Whittier. Mr. Dalquest stated the ordinance was modified to
strengthen provisions identified by staff, the Ad Hoc Committee, the City Attorney, and
Redlands Police Department. Mr. Dalquest stated that a section was deleted that allowed
for an administrative variance process if a property/business owner could not comply with
the ordinance upon recommendation from the City Attorney.
Mr. Dalquest stated the proposed noise ordinance establishes baseline standards for
maximum interior/exterior noise exposure limits for residential, commercial, public space,
institutional, and industrial uses. In addition, the proposed ordinance contains provisions
that deal with noise disturbances that are specifically prohibited or prohibited after a certain
period of time.
Mr. Dalquest noted that the proposed ordinance:
1. Provides noise measurement procedures
2. Allows commercial and industrial operations currently in existence a certain
period of time to comply based on the cost of improvements and,
3. Includes provisions for violation of the Noise Control Ordinance which would
be enforced by Code Enforcement Officers or others designated by the City
Manager
Mr. Dalquest noted that the proposed ordinance would implement a number of policies
contained in the Noise Element of the General Plan which provides a comprehensive
program to achieve/maintain land use compatibility with environmental noise levels.
Mr. Dalquest stated the Ad Hoc Committee and staff recommend adoption of the proposed
Noise Ordinance.
Commissioner Thompson expressed concern on the weekend time limits proposed in the
ordinance. Mr. Dalquest noted that the ordinance may be modified by the Commission.
Chairman Webber opened the public hearing.
Mr. Cunningham stated currently noise levels are measured at the private backyard,which
he feels is a direct violation of Measure U. Mr. Cunningham stated the proposed ordinance
Planning Commission Minutes of
April 27, 2004
Page 2
is well done and he encouraged its adoption.
Mr. Dalquest stated an exemption in the ordinance would allow for new home construction
Chairman Webber closed the public hearing.
Commissioner Osborne noted that the wording in 8.06.080 Interior Noise Standards refers
to dwelling units which implies that it is a residential use. It was determined that the words
"dwelling unit" would be replaced with "structure" which encompasses all uses, such as
institutional, commercial, and industrial, in addition to residential.
Chairman Webber addressed Commissioner Thompson's request that the time for
maintenance of residential property be changed from "between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to
8:00 p.m." to "between the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on weekends.
Commissioners Cook, Miller, and Macdonald concurred with Commissioner Thompson.
MOTION
It was moved by Commissioner Miller, seconded by Commissioner Macdonald, and carried
on a 6-0 vote that the Planning Commission approve Planning Commission Resolution No.
1027, recommending that the City Council adopt Ordinance Text Amendment No. 304 with
a modification to the wording:
5. Minor maintenance of residential property such as maintenance of landscaping or
minor repair of the residence or ancillary structures. This exemption applies if
conducted between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. on weekdays, and 7:00
a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on weekends and Federal holidays, and provided the activity does
not generate more than 90 dBA (Example, Lawn mower, leaf blower, etc.)
Item III A which was tabled earlier in the meeting was heard at this time.
A. COMMISSION SIGN REVIEW NO.259-A request for Planning Commission
consideration of one (1) pedestal sign with a total face area of twenty-four
(24) square feet located at 1680 W. Redlands Blvd. in the EV/CG, East
Valley Corridor Specific Plan General Commercial District. Request
submitted by GLOBAL SIGN SYSTEMS.
Protect Planner Alicia Heideman stated the proposed project was continued at the March
23r Planing Commission meeting so that revisions could be made to the plans. To date,
the applicant has not submitted those revisions. Ms. Heideman continued by saying the
applicant requested a 90 day time extension which must be granted by the City Council.
Due to the Permit Streamlining Act, the City has until May 5, 2004 to take action.
The earliest the Council can hear this issue is May 4t", the day before the Permit
Streamlining Act expires. If the City Council is unable to approve the time extension, the
Planning Commission Minutes of
April 27, 2004
Page 3
project will be automatically approved before Planning Commission can take action. Staff is
recommending denial of the project since the applicant has yet to submit the revised plans
and to prevent automatic approval of the project.
Chairman Webber opened the public hearing.
Mr. Michael Lewin, representing the applicant, questioned Finding #3 which states that
placing a monument sign at this location will improve the visibility. Mr. Lewin stated he
could not understand why a monument sign would improve visibility over a pedestal sign.
Chairman Webber stated the Commission felt the trees would interfere with a pedestal
sign. Mr. Shaw interjected that the combination of pedestal signs and monument signs is
easier to see.
Mr. Fred Zepeda, applicant, stated he has 400 feet of street frontage with a wall sign only,
which is visible to traffic traveling westbound on Redlands Boulevard and the sight line for
eastbound traffic is not impaired.
Mr. Lewin asked why his applicant does not meet intent and purpose for Section 15.36
(Finding #5) as they feel the project was designed well within the sign criteria.
Mr. Shaw stated Section 15.36 relates to aesthetics and the appearance of the community
in which it is located. Mr. Shaw stated that the Code allows for either a monument or a
pedestal sign, however, signs are reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission and
a determination is made as to which would be most appropriate.
Mr. Zepeda stated the City rules are codified by the City Council, and he questioned how
the Planning Commission can override the Municipal Code.
Mr. Shaw stated the applicant can withdraw the application and resubmit with no additional
fees required.
Mr. Lewin requested withdrawal of the project, and there was no further discussion.
B. COMMISSION REVIEW AND APPROVAL NO. 384(REVISION 2)-Hearing
for the Planning Commission to consider a Commission Review and

Specific Plan 29. Request submitted by GORDON BLOOM.
Ms. Heideman explained she was having difficulty with the PowerPoint presentation, and
was unable to provide a site plan for the project.
Chairman Webber opened the public hearing.
Mr. Gordon Bloom, Genself Corp., stated the first phase provided approximately 30% of
Planning Commission Minutes of
April 27, 2004
Page 4
the applicant's total annual energy usage, and this project, when completed, will provide
80-90% of the applicant's total energy usage.
Chairman Webber closed the public hearing.
MOTION
It was moved by Commissioner Macdonald, seconded by Commissioner Thompson, and
carried on a 6-0 vote that the Planning Commission approve Commission Review and
Approval No. 384 Revision 2 subject to the following findings:
1. The size and shape of the site are adequate for the proposed car port.
2. That the site properly relates to Orange Tree Lane which is designed and
improved to carry the type and quantity of traffic to be generated by the
proposed development.
3. That the conditions of approval proposed for Commission Review and
Approval No. 384 Revision 2 are necessary to protect the public health,
safety and general welfare.
4. That the use is desirable for the overall development of the community.
5. The proposed project will be consistent with the existing Commercial

C. ZONE CHANGE NO.402- PUBLIC HEARING for the Planning Commission
to consider a recommendation to the City Council on a Mitigated Negative
Declaration, a Socio-Economic Cost/Benefit Study and a Zone Change from
unincorporated County of San Bernardino to a proposed zoning of R-1,

(Highway 38) and Amethyst Street within the unincorporated area of the
County of San Bernardino (proposed City of Redlands R-1, Single Family
Residential District). Request submitted by DAVID HIGGINSON.
Mr. John Jaquess stated the applicant filed an application for annexation of the site to the
City, in addition to the two items before the Commission. Mr. Jaquess stated a question
was raised during final review of the staff report as to whether the annexation orthe zoning
consideration should occur first. That matter is being reviewed by the City Attorney,

Page 5
therefore, Mr. Jaquess requested the proposed project be continued to May 11tH
Chairman Webber opened the public hearing. Seeing no comments forthcoming,
Chairman Webber closed the public hearing.
MOTION
It was moved by Commissioner Thompson, seconded by Commissioner Osborne, and
carried on a 6-0 vote that the Planning Commission continue Zone Change No. 402 and

E. VARIANCE NO. 676 - PUBLIC HEARING for Planning Commission
consideration of a Variance from Section 18.52.130 of the Redlands
Municipal Code to waive the requirement for front-yard setback of twenty-five
(25) feet to allow a swimming pool, pool equipment, and wood fence six (6)
feet in height at the rear of the existing house on a corner lot at 302 W. Fern
Avenue (northwest corner of W. Fern Ave. & Grant St.) in the R-2, Multiple
Family Residential District. Request Submitted by JOHN GARDNER.
Project Planner Asher Hartel distributed a copy of a revised site plan he received from the
applicant prior to the meeting. Mr. Hartel stated the variance application which covers the
swimming pool, pool equipment, and a wood fence is no longer necessary for the fence
since the applicant is proposing to reduce the fence height from five (5)feet to four(4)feet.
However a variance is required for the pool and pool equipment.
Commissioner Osborne noted that the revised plan shows the distance from the pool to the
property line has been decreased from thirteen (13) feet to eight (8) feet. Commissioner
Osborne stated he would prefer to have a landscaping buffer between the pool and the
property line.
Chairman Webber opened the public hearing.
Mr. John Gardner, applicant, stated he would prefer to have a five (5)foot fence offset six
(6) inches from the property line in order to allow for planting of a vining plant on the
exterior of the fence.
Discussion was held on the placement of the pool.
Commissioner Miller stated the vines are nice, but he felt additional trees, which would
provide variations of height, should be planted between the sidewalk and the paving.
Chairman Webber closed the public hearing.
Commissioners Cook, Thompson, and Osborne agreed that a five (5)foot fence would be
more appropriate, although a variance would be required.
Planning Commission Minutes of
April 27, 2004
Page 6
Mr. Shaw asked the Commission to review the two plans and determine which plan is most
appropriate.
Chairman Webber noted that the original plan submitted included a landscape buffer and a
five (5) foot fence.
Chairman Webber reopened the public hearing.
Discussion was held comparing the two plans that were submitted by Mr. Gardner.
Commissioner Miller stated there should be a five (5) foot planter, at a minimum.
Mr. Gardner stated he will have a five (5) landscaped area inside the fence, however if the
fence is moved back seven (7) feet, as requested by the Commission, he will lose the
landscaped area.
The Commission reached a consensus on supporting a five (5) foot fence along the
property line.
Chairman Webber closed the public hearing.
MOTION
It was moved by Commissioner Osborne, seconded by Commissioner Macdonald, and
carried on a 6-0 vote that the Planning Commission approve Variance No. 676 subject to
the following findings and revised Conditions of Approval:
1. There are exceptional circumstances to this proposal because the lot was
subdivided prior to the current regulations, which makes it difficult to make
any additions or provide backyard amenities which meet the code
requirements. The existing house encroaches into the front-yard setback
along Grant Street and the proposed pool, noel equipment, and woo
rm aaiRtairnr some setbaGk as the house.
2. There are many instances on surrounding streets that already have the
setbacks requested and a variance for the front yard setback has been
recently granted under Variance No. 617 and 658.
3. The applicant's request for reduced front yard setbacks will not have a
negative impact on the City, neighborhood, or any specific property owner.
4. The granting of the requested variance will not conflict with the City's General
Plan, with a revision to Condition of Approval 2 to read:
2. This project approval includes the granting of a variance for reduction of the front

demolition.
Planning Commission Minutes of
April 27, 2004
Page 8
Mr. Hartel stated that(Planned Residential Development) PRD standards require a ten (10)
foot setback on each side of the lot that abuts the property lines. Mr. Hartel stated that
staff has conditioned the project to comply with the standards. Mr. Hartel stated all other
lots (interior)will have a minimum five (5)foot side yard setback and a minimum combined
setback of fifteen (15) feet.
Mr. Hartel stated staff is requesting the project be continued to allow the applicant time to
redesign the tentative tract map to meet PRD standards for side yard setbacks.
Commissioner Osborne asked if the Code is interpreted to mean a ten foot side yard
setback is required if the property abuts property that is not part of the project. Mr. Hartel
responded by saying if any part of the lot abuts property that is not part of the project a ten
(10) foot side yard is required. Commissioner Osborne questioned whether the Code is
being interpreted correctly due to the fact that the rear property line of the proposed project
abuts land that is not part of the project. Commissioner Osborne disputed staffs
interpretation.
Commissioner Cook asked Mr. Hartel if a ten (10)foot side yard setback is required for the
R-E District. Mr. Hartel answered in the affirmative.
Commissioner Cook asked Mr. Hartel if the RV parking is counted towards open space.
Chairman Webber opened the public hearing.
Mr. Kirk Duke, LSA Associates, stated that discussion was held to donate the building to a
historical society.
Mr. Bud Thatcher, Thatcher Engineering, stated he concurs with the staff report and
Conditions of Approval with the exception of Planning Division Condition of Approval 13.
Mr. Thatcher stated the developer Dick Darling, project architect, landscape architect, and
geologist were available to answer questions.
Mr. Thatcher stated he has an issue with the requirement for minimum ten (10 ) foot side
yard setbacks for lots that abut the east and west property lines. Mr. Thatcher indicated
he has an issue with the requirement for a minimum fifteen (15) aggregate for interior lots.
Mr. Thatcher noted he submitted two (2) prior projects (Tract 16174 and Tract 16359)that
were processed and approved by the City, with side yard setbacks that were less than ten
(10) feet.
Mr. Thatcher stated he was not advised to apply for a variance by either the Preliminary
Review Committee or the Environmental Review Committee, so he did not apply for a
variance as a matter of consistency.
Commissioner Macdonald stated the (2) projects were approved before the Commission
made the decision to evaluate projects with less than ten (10) foot side yard setbacks.
Planning Commission Minutes of
April 27, 2004
Page 9
Commissioner Cook concurred with Commissioner Macdonald.
Discussion was held on the two projects referred to by Mr. Thatcher.
Mr. Shaw stated staff would research the two projects and report back to the Commission.
Mr. Thatcher stated the benefits of a PRD are being taken away and the developer has no
flexibility when plotting houses. Mr. Thatcher stated the goal of PRDs is allowing flexibility
in the project so that the houses can be plotted.
Mr. Thatcher asked the Commission to consider revised language for Condition of
Approval 13 as follows:
Minimum front and rear yards for the project shall comply with the provisions of the
Municipal Code. Side yard setbacks shall be a minimum of 5'. A minimum of 15' of
separation shall be maintained between two story structures. A minimum of 10'
shall be maintained between structures wherein at least one of the structures is
either single story or has a single story element along that common property line.
Mr. Shaw recommended the Commission change the Code, if there was an error of
interpreting the Code in the past, rather than say the Code will not be applied.
Commissioner Osborne stated he did not feel the Code needs to be changed, nor does he
feel the Commission made a mistake.
Chairman Webber stated the "abutting" issue will be investigated by staff.
Commissioner Miller requested a broader comparison of other tracts, relative to lot size,
frontage, side yard setbacks, and amenities.
Commissioner Osborne requested staff give its interpretation of the Code relative to the
intent of"projects abutting other projects".
Mr. Thatcher stated everyone in this price range has toys, and they want to have a place to
park the "toys". Mr. Thatcher stated the recreational vehicle parking is an amenity.
Commissioner Osborne asked Mr. Thatcher what he will do with the house that is on site,
if the Historic and Scenic Preservation Commission does not want it demolished. Mr.
Thatcher stated there are a number of options to consider such as relocating the structure
or keeping it on site.
Commissioner Miller asked Mr. Shaw if there are other subdivisions that have RV storage
of this size. Mr. Shaw stated there is a subdivision off Cypress Avenue with an RV storage
area.
Planning Commission Minutes of
April 27, 2004
Page 10
Commissioner Miller expressed concern on the chain link fence surrounding the RV
storage area, and suggested wrought iron with the pickets placed close together so that a
vine could cling to it. Commissioner Miller stated the park is very nice, within a nice
development, and he feels the chain link will detract from it.
Mr. Thatcher stated there will be a solid hedge of green and the chain link will not be seen.
Commissioner Cook asked Mr. Shaw if RV parking has been counted towards open space
in previous projects. Mr. Shaw stated he did not recall, but he would be happy to research
that issue.
Mr. Thatcher stated he has come before the Commission many times, and has been asked
many times, "What are the amenities?"
Chairman Webber stated he felt the RV parking is a great amenity.
Commissioner Macdonald urged the Commissioner to drive out to the tracts that have been
approved and compare the five foot and ten foot side yard setbacks.
Commissioner Cook stated the Commission has to be careful to maintain the low density
residential feeling.
Commissioner Macdonald reminded the Commission of the discussions and concerns they
have had in the past relative to five (5) side yard setbacks.
Mr. Shaw stated he would return to the Commission with an overview of approved PRDs
and a breakdown of the setbacks that have been granted.
Mr. Shaw stated they have tried to get the word out to the developers that there is concern
on reduced setbacks.
Mr. Shaw stated he did not feel there is an interpretation question relative to the Code
Requirement. He stated the applicant can file an application for a variance, amend the
Code, or revise the project to accommodate the setback requirement. Mr. Shaw stated he
would discuss this issue with the attorney.
MOTION
It was moved by Commissioner Miller, seconded by Commissioner Thompson, and carried
on a 6-0 vote that the Planning Commission continue Agricultural Preserve Removal No.
102, Zone Change No. 402, Tentative Tract No. 16747, and Conditional Use Permit No.
806 to May 25, 2004 to allow the applicant time to revise the Tentative Tract Map and
development plan to meet the Planned Residential Development standards for side yard
setbacks.

V. ADDENDA
A. FINAL LANDSCAPE PLAN FOR CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 743 -
PATHWAY CHRISTIAN SCHOOL (formerly Temple Baptist School)
Mr. Richard Malacoff gave a brief presentation and stated Phase I is under construction.
Mr. Malacoff reviewed minor landscaping issues that need to be addressed and can be
handled administratively. Mr. Malacoff stated that Reverend Gary Jefferson was available
to answer questions.
Commissioner Miller expressed concern there aren't many shade trees around the
buildings (Phase II)and there aren't enough trees between the sanctuary and the driveway.
Mr. Malacoff stated the applicant is not required to have more trees, but they can be added
to the project.
Commissioner Miller suggested additional shade trees be planted:
1. On the west side, between the parking lot and the two classrooms (Phase II)
2. On the west side of the sanctuary and the multi-purpose building facing the
driveway (Phase III)
3. On Cypress Avenue, near the southwest corner, where the entrance drive
turns westerly,
Commissioner Thompson suggested additional trees in the area on the west side of
classrooms in Phases I, II, and III. Mr. Malacoff stated there is a drainage channel that runs
through the area, however, he suggested adding wording to the motion that would require
trees along the drainage channel (between Phase I and Phase III) subject to the approval
and requirements of the Public Works Department.
Chairman Webber opened the public hearing.
Pastor Gary Jefferson concurred with staffs recommendations which are subject to Public
Works Department requirements.
MOTION
It was moved by Commissioner Osborne, seconded by Commissioner Macdonald, and
carried on a 6-0 vote that the Planning Commission approve the Final Landscape Plan for
Conditional Use Permit No. 743 subject to the recommended changes:
1. Provision of more trees adjacent to the west side of Phase II facing the
parking area.
2. The wet side of the sanctuary and multi-purpose building area facing the
driveway.
