This Development Code is the primary tool for implementing the goals, objectives, and policies of the San Bernardino General Plan, pursuant to the mandated provisions of the State Planning and Zoning Law (Government Code Section 65000 et seq.), State Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Section 66410 et seq.), California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code 21000 et seq.), and other applicable State and local requirements. All development within the unincorporated area of the City's Sphere of Influence, should be consistent with the San Bernardino General Plan. All development in the incorporated area of the City shall be consistent with the General Plan.
The subdivision provisions of this Development Code are intended to supplement and implement the Subdivision Map Act, and serves as the Subdivision Ordinance of the City. If the provisions of this Development Code conflict with any provision of the Subdivision Map Act, the provisions of the Subdivision Map Act shall prevail.
This Development Code is designed to treat in one unified text those areas of regulation more typically dealt with in separate zoning and subdivision ordinances, and related chapters of the Municipal Code. No land shall be subdivided and/or developed for any purpose which is not in conformity with the General Plan, and any applicable specific plan of the City and permitted by this Development Code, or other applicable provisions of the San Bernardino Municipal Code.
The type and intensity of land use as shown on the General Plan and any applicable specific plan shall determine, together with this Development Code, the type of streets, roads, highways, utilities and public services that shall be provided by the subdivider.

Notes
1 | 1 Ord. MC-1559, 5-03-21 contains a typographical error that would have caused 19.02.030 to accidentally be supplanted with the text of 19.04.030(1). The City Attorney's Office has advised to instead place the content and reference into 19.04.030 where it was intended and provide this explanation. |
