Summary

The City of San Bernardino Planning Commission on a unanimous vote approved a modification to Conditional Use Permit 25-16 to incorporate omitted Public Works conditions for a planned 16,085-square-foot religious assembly at 1316 West Thirteenth Street.

The City of San Bernardino Planning Commission on a unanimous vote approved a modification to Conditional Use Permit 25-16 to amend conditions of approval for a previously authorized 16,085-square-foot religious assembly at 1316 West Thirteenth Street.

Planning staff said the item modifies prior approvals (CUP 20-17 and extension of time 25-03) solely to add conditions from the Department of Public Works that were omitted from earlier resolutions. "The scope hasn't changed," staff planner Angeline Mendoza told commissioners, describing the request as an administrative amendment to incorporate review comments into the record.

The project remains sited on an approximately 3.8-acre parcel zoned Commercial General (CG1). Mendoza said the site plan, parking, landscaping and building footprint are unchanged from earlier approvals and that the department has processed building plan check activity concurrent with the zoning review. She also reported staff had received no public comment at the time of the hearing.

Commissioners asked for one clarification about the missing Public Works conditions. Mendoza said the conditions were standard, "boilerplate" requirements for ground-up development and that the amendment is intended to rectify omissions discovered during plan check.

Vice Chair Quill moved to adopt the staff recommendation; the motion was seconded and the commission approved the amended resolution and findings. The recorded action directs staff to incorporate the Public Works conditions into the CUP findings and to file the amending resolution as adopted.

The action does not alter the approved project scope; it updates the permit record to reflect the full set of interdepartmental conditions that apply to future permit compliance and building inspections.

What happens next: Staff will prepare and finalize the amended resolution and updated conditions of approval so the applicant and future inspectors have a single, consolidated permit record.
