RE: Notice of Decision - Site Plan Review (Project No. 13-0227)
Dear Mr. Franco:
Manning Division
Phone. (661) 326-3733
FAX: (661) 852-2136
The Planning Director, upon recommendation of the Site Plan Review Committee,
has approved your plans for a residential duplex in an R-3 (Wtiple-Family Dwelling Zone)
district at 1830 Orange Street.
Your proposal, with corrections as noted, meets the minimum required codes,
policies and standards for development as adopted by the Bakersfield City Council.
Specific items have been identified (see attached Site Plan Compliance List) that you
need to resolve before you can obtain a building permit or be allowed occupancy.
These items may include changes or additions that need to be shown on the final building
plans, alert you to specific fees, and/or are comments that will help you in complying with
the city's development standards. Each item will note when it is to be completed and
they have been grouped by department so that you know who to contact if you have
questions.
Your next step is to either apply for necessary building permits to construct your
project, or begin your business activities depending on the request submitted. You must
submit final building plans to the Building Division, The Site Plan Review Committee will
review these final plans while building plan check occurs to ensure that you satisfy the
items in the Site Plan Compliance List. Please read them carefully. Failure to satisfy an
item may delay your obtaining a building permit or commencing your project.
After construction of your project but before the City can allow occupancy, the
Building Division must inspect the development to find if it complies with the approved
plans, and any other relevant permits and codes. If you have satisfied all of the
requirements, the Building Director will issue a certificate of occupancy; of not, the area
inspector will give you a correction notice. Once you have made all of the corrections,
the Building Director can issue a certificate of occupancy. You may not occupy a
development until the Building Director has issued a certificate of occupancy.

indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City of Bakersfield, its officers, agents,
employees, departments, commissioners and boards ("City " herein); against any and all
liability, claims, actions, causes of actions or demands whatsoever against them, or any of
them, before administrative or judicial tribunals of any kind whatsoever, in any way arising
from, the terms and provisions of this application, including without limitation any CEQA
approval or any related development approvals or conditions whether imposed by the
City, or not, except for City's sole active negligence or willful misconduct,
This indemnification condition does not prevent the Applicant from challenging any
decision by the City related to this project and the obligations of this condition apply
regardless of whether any other permits or entitlements are issued,

any law firm or attorney chosen by another entity or party.
Any time after site plan approval but before the approval expires you may submit
revisions to the plan. We will treat these revisions as a new site plan application subject to
a new review and required fees. The Planning Director can only approve minor changes
to the original plan without a new application if they are necessary to meet a condition,
mitigation, or result from physical obstacles or other comparable constraints.
Approval of this site plan expires on July 4, 2015 (2 years from the decision date),
unless building permits have been issued, or on projects not requiring a building permit,
the use has commenced. The project must be completed within 5 years from the decision
date. If: the property is rezoned, site plain approval will expire upon the effective date for
the rezoning unless the use is permitted in the new zone.
The Planning Director may extend the expiration date up to one (1) year if you
resubmit new plans for check against the code requirements in effect at that time and
include a written request for the extension. We must receive this request before expiration
of the project approval. We will not require a fee for this extension request; however,
changes to the plans originally approved for purposes other than code requirements shall
be subject to a new site plan review, including payment of all required fees.

California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) according to Section 15332. This project is
exempt because it is an infM development that is consistent with the general plan and
zoning regulations, is within an area predominantly developed with urban uses, is not
identified as critical habitat for endangered or threatened species, will not significantly
affect traffic noise, air or water quality, and will be adequately served by appropriate
utilities and public services. A Notice of Exemption Ihas been prepared and is available for
review at the Planning Division (see cover sheet for address).

adopted development standard, zoning regulation, mitigation, or policy applied or not
applied to the project, was done consistent with the authority granted by city ordinances

may contact the City of Bakersfield Water Resources Department (1000

one parcel because parking must be on the same site as the project

on the design layout, and/or a parcel line bisects a building. A parcel
merger or lot line adjustment application removing or relocating property
lines shall be submitted to the Planning Division before building permits can
be issued. Recordation of the map shall occur before finial building or site
occupancy can be granted. If our records are in error and these parcels
