Section 1. Required Findings. Pursuant to Redlands Municipal Code Section 18.192.060
and, after consideration of the record before the City Council including the March 3, 2015 staff
report, and all oral and written evidence and testimony presented at the public hearing for
Conditional Use Permit 1042, the City Council hereby finds as follows:
1. The proposed Master Plan will not adversely affect the applicable land use plans
of the City as the use is conditionally permitted within the East Valley Corridor Specific Plan.
Further, the proposal is consistent with applicable General Plan Policies contained in Section 7.0
of the Open Space and Conservation Element, as it will provide a high quality diversified park
campus that will enhance Redland's unique attributes. The subject proposal will not result in
impacts to the surrounding properties; the uses proposed under the Master Plan will operate in a
manner compatible with the surrounding uses and complement the educational uses immediately
adjacent to the site consistent with the General Plan and the East Valley Corridor Specific Plan.
2. The Master Plan will include various amenities such as a farmers market area;
amphitheater with I50-200 person capacity; an animal pen; native American "village"; a variety
of gardens; a bridge; vineyard; trails; water wheel replica; citrus, olive, and fruit tree groves; a
public restroom, as well as other features. The establishment of a Master Plan for Heritage Park
will allow Heritage Park to expand consistent with the General Plan. Therefore, this proposal
will not be detrimental to the public health, safety and welfare.
3. The General Plan envisioned the subject site to be developed with a coirununity
park. The proposal involves a Master Plan for the future expansion of Heritage Park. Future
expansion of existing structures or any new construction at Heritage Park will be analyzed for
compliance with the development standards of the Specific Plan at such time they are proposed
and will require the approval of Coirunission Review and Approval.
4. The project will not interfere with existing nearby businesses, residential uses
because the Master Plan for Heritage Park will provide recreational opportunities conveniently
accessible to present and future residents.

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 1042
Date of P.C.Meeting: February 10,2014
Applicant: City of Redlands
Location: Redlands Heritage Park(11126 Iowa Street)
Project Description: Establish a Master Plan for Heritage Park
The applicant shall comply with the following engineering requirements as necessary because
the required construction is a necessary prerequisite to the orderly development of the
surrounding area and for public health and safety.
All requirements for development shall be consistent with requirements set forth in the East
Valley Corridor Specific Plan; applicable sections of Redlands Municipal Code; latest edition of
"Redlands Standard Specifications and Detail Drawings for Design and Construction of Public
Improvements"; latest edition of American Public Works Association "Standard Plans for Public
Works" and "Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction — Greenbook"; latest
edition of "Redlands Water Systems Standard Specifications"; latest edition of "Redlands
Sanitary Sewer Systems Standard Specifications"; and current Redlands policies and guidelines
relative to development projects.
A. The following items are required prior to GROUND DISTURBANCE.
1. Ground-disturbing activities affecting vegetated areas should be conducted
outside of the avian nesting season, from February to August, if possible. If
ground disturbance must take place during the nesting season, a 30-day
pre-construction survey shall be conducted prior to any ground disturbance
activities. If any migratory birds are found nesting or if there is evidence of
nesting behavior within 150 feet of a construction area, project related impacts
may be considered significant and mitigation is required. A 150-foot buffer will
be required around the nest where no vegetation disturbance will be permitted.
For raptor species such as hawks and owls, this buffer may be expanded to 250
feet at the discretion of a biological monitor in consultation with the California
Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). A qualified biologist will be required
to closely monitor nests until it is determined that they are no longer active, at
which time construction activity in the vicinity of nests may continue.
Construction may proceed within the buffer area at the discretion of the biological
monitor. (Mitigation Measure BIO-1).
2. Any disturbance to the Barton School House or onsite trees should be conducted
outside of the bat maternity roosting season from March to September, if possible.
If the aforementioned disturbance must take place during the roosting season, a
30-day pre-construction survey shall be conducted prior to any disturbing
activities. If bats are found to be roosting or if there is evidence of nesting
behavior within 150 feet of a construction area, project related impacts may be
considered significant and mitigation is required. A 150-foot buffer will be

required around the nest where no vegetation disturbance will be permitted. A
qualified biologist will be required to closely monitor roosts until it is determined
that they are no longer active, at which time construction activity in the vicinity of
maternity roosts may continue. Construction activity may proceed within the
buffer area at the discretion of the biological monitor. (Mitigation Measure Bio-2).
3. Prior to any ground disturbance of the on-site drainage within the western portion
of the project site, a pre-application meeting will occur with the California
Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and the Regional Water Quality
Control Board (RWQCB) to determine jurisdiction over the feature. If the CDFW
and/or RWQCB determine State jurisdiction over the feature, the area will be
delineated consistent with California Department of Fish and Wildlife and
Regional Water Quality Control Board requirements. The City will coordinate
with the regulatory agencies, and if applicable, obtain permits for improvements
and implement any required compensatory mitigation. (Mitigation Measure Bio-3).
4. A grading permit may be required as determined by the City Engineer.
S. A Water Quality Management Pian may be required as determined by the City
Engineer.
6. A Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan may be required as determined by the
City Engineer.
7. A minimum of 30 days prior to ground disturbance activities, a meeting shall be
held with the City Engineer to determine which of the above listed conditions are
appropriate for the proposed ground disturbance activity.
B. The following items are required prior to DEVELOPMENT AND USE OF THE
AMPHITHEATER.
I. Construct Orange Avenue from Nevada Street to Iowa Street along the project's
frontage at its ultimate half-section width as a Collector(66-foot right-of-way) in
compliance with the applicable City of Redlands and East Valley Corridor
Specific Plan standards.
2. Construct Nevada Street from Orange Avenue to the project's southern boundary
along the project's frontage at its ultimate half-section width as a Minor Arterial
(88 foot right-o£--way)in compliance with the applicable City of Redlands and
East Valley Corridor Specific Plan standards.
3. Construct Iowa Street from Orange Avenue to the project's southern boundary
along the project's frontage at its ultimate half-section width as a Local (66-foot
right-of-way) in compliance with the applicable City of Redlands and East Valley
Corridor Specific Plan standards.

4. Wherever necessary, constructed roadways adjacent to the project, site access
points and site adjacent intersections, shall be constructed to be consistent with
the recommended roadway classifications and respective cross-sections in the
City of Redlands General Plan and East Valley Corridor Specific Plan. The
Council may approve a more rural aesthetic to site adjacent streets by
implementing an alternative standard that includes a minimum of one through
lane, an 8' wide parking lane, and a designated ADA accessible pedestrian path
with appropriate pavement markings and signage in lieu of the typical East Valley
Corridor Specific Plan standards. Implementation of this alternative standard will
be evaluated at the time each project associated with Heritage Park is reviewed
for approval.
5. Review sight distance at each project access point with respect to standard
Caltrans and City of Redlands sight distance standards at the time of preparation
of final grading; landscape and street improvement plans.
6. Provide yellow crosswalk markings across all four legs of the Orange/Nevada and
Orange/Iowa intersections in compliance with applicable City of Redlands
standards and guidelines outlined in the FHWA's MUTCD and MUTCD 2012
California Supplement.
7. Provide yellow crosswalk markings midblock on Orange Avenue at least 600 feet
from the intersection of Nevada Street/Orange Avenue in compliance with
applicable City of Redlands standards and guidelines outlined in the FHWA's
MUTCD and MUTCD 2012 California Supplement.
8. Provide traffic signing to reduce vehicle speeds and enhance safety for
pedestrians at the proposed midblock crosswalk on Orange Avenue which
includes the following components:
• Rectangular Rapid Flash Beacon(RRFB);
• School Speed Limit Sign with Flashing Beacon;
• Speed Feedback Sign.
All the above devices are recommended to be solar powered. A concept signing
plan for Orange Avenue is shown in the Traffic Study(Appendix F of the Project
Specific Impact Analysis). The RRFB is an acceptable beacon type per the
FHWA's 2009 MUTCD; however, is not included in the 2012 California Manual
on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CAMUTCD). The RRFBs are a lower cost
alternative to hybrid pedestrian signals, which utilize an irregular flash pattern
(similar to emergency flashers of police vehicles) that are pedestrian actuated.The
school speed limit sign with flashing beacon and the speed feedback sign provide
advance warning to the drivers and encourage there to reduce speed ahead of the
mid-block crossing.
9. An encroachment permit is required for any work with the Public right-of-way.
