University Hills Specific Plan

On July 15, 2026, the City Council of San Bernardino approved Subdivision No. 23-05 and Specific Plan Amendment No. 23-01, authorizing the division of a 404.3-acre parcel in the University Hills area into 327 single-family residential lots and reducing the previously permitted maximum density from 980 to 327 units. The approval followed a recommendation from the Planning Commission on January 13, 2026, and included adoption of an Addendum to the Final Subsequent Environmental Impact Report, with associated Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, under the California Environmental Quality Act. Development Agreement No. 08-02 was formally dissolved as part of the action. The project site is located in San Bernardino, California, near the San Bernardino National Forest and California State University, San Bernardino, with all official documentation filed and administered by the City Planning Department. The private developer, Encore University Hills, LLC, is the project applicant, and the City of San Bernardino serves as the lead agency responsible for environmental compliance, permitting, and recordkeeping. Financial transactions related to the project involve environmental review fees paid via cash, credit, or check, with a documented receipt number, but no contract value, pricing structure, or federal acquisition instrumentation is present. No federal contract clauses, solicitation numbers, or procurement terms apply, as the action is entirely governed by state land use and environmental law under CEQA, with no federal procurement elements, award evaluations, inspection protocols, or delivery requirements identified in the documentation. Contact for inquiries is through the City’s Senior Planner, Michael Rosales, and Project Manager, David Hardy.
