  • 5. Environmental Analysis
    5. Environmental Analysis 5. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS 5.1 AESTHETICS Characterizing aesthetics and aesthetic impacts is highly subjective by nature. Aesthetics, as evaluated in this Section of the EIR, involves establishing the existing visual character including visual resources and scenic vistas unique to the City of San Bernardino, the SOI and the Arrowhead Springs area. Visual resources are determined by identifying existing landforms, natural features or urban characteristics; views of sensitive receptors (i.e., residential, schools, recreation areas, etc.); and existing light and glare (i.e., nighttime illumination). The aesthetic impacts of the proposed project are evaluated by determining the aesthetic compatibility of the proposed project with the surrounding area taking into consideration the visual qualities as well as the sensitivity of receptors to these features. 5.1.1 Environmental Setting 5.1.1.1 San Bernardino General Plan Update Visual Character The City of San Bernardino lies on a broad, gently sloping lowland that flanks the southwest margin of the San Bernardino Mountains. The lowland is underlain by alluvial sediments eroded from bedrock in the adjacent mountains and washed by rivers and creeks into the valley region where they have accumulated in layers of gravel, sand, silt and clay. This low lying valley is framed by the San Bernardino Mountains on the northeast and east, Blue Mountains and Box Springs Mountain abutting the Cities of Loma Linda and Redlands to the south, and the San Gabriel Mountains and the Jurupa Hills to the northwest and southwest, respectively. The Santa Ana River has a number of tributaries in the vicinity of San Bernardino that contribute flow to the main stem of the river including Lytle Creek, Cajon Creek, Warm Creek, East Creek and West Twin Creek (see Figure 3.1-2).
