17.22.264 Setting
' A. Setting and Location. Arbor Vista is comprised of 73.3 acres located on the southeast comer of Nicolas
Road and Via Lobo Road in Nicolas Valley. Nicolas Valley is located in the northeast comer of the City and is
of a rural residential character with large lots and open space surrounding Santa Gertrudis Creek. The natural
topography of the area consists of gently rolling hills.
B. Surrounding Uses and Development. The northern edge of Arbor Vista is directly adjacent to Nicolas
Road. The northern side of Nicolas Road is adjacent to Nakayama Park which includes an off-street regional
bike trail, a full court basketball facility, picnic and turf areas and a concrete -sided drainage channel. A
residential subdivision designated as Low Medium Density Residential is located beyond. The western
boundary of Arbor Vista is adjacent to Via Lobo Road. A residential subdivision designated as Low Medium
Density Residential is adjacent to the western side of Via Lobo Road. The eastern edge abuts property
designated and developed as Very Low Density Residential and the southern edge abuts open space and the
Santa Gertrudis Creek.
17.22.266 Development Concept
This section describes the conceptual development components of Arbor Vista. Except for the street sections
(Exhibits B, C, and D), the images are an artist's interpretation of the application of the Arbor Vista
development standards and design parameters and are not to be taken as the final design or compulsory. The
final design shall be reviewed using these conceptual images as guidance; however, variations in the placement
and location of buildings, street alignments, amenities, style, materials, colors, and landscaping placement/type
is expected as allowed in PDO -13.
A. Land Plan. The Arbor Vista planned development overlay district (PDO -13) provides for the
' development of eighty-three single family detached homes on fee -owned lots on 73.3 acres. As shown
on the Site Plan (Exhibit A), development is clustered to maximize open space and preserve the Santa
Gertrudis Creek. The site grading has been designed to preserve the crest of the on-site ridge (elevation
1235), and lots adjacent to the ridge are nestled along the downward slope. All cul-de-sac streets
terminate in open space, creating an open, rural character within the site. Approximately 43.3 acres are
devoted to private open spaces, and additionally 6.4 acres are devoted to a public park, and 1.4 acres arc
devoted to water quality/detention basins. The residential lots, which comprise 16.0 acres, and streets,
which comprise 6.2 acres (4.2 acres private and 2.0 acres public), account for 30% of the total site.
These acres may change slightly during final tract map review if found to be in substantial conformance
with these concepts. Exhibit B, Conceptual Imagery includes photos of communities having elements
similar to Arbor Vista but do not represent literal imagery of the proposed community.
B. Access and Circulation.. The circulation plan for Arbor Vista reflects and enhances the rural character
of the existing community. Along the northern boundary of the site, the Nicholas Road right-of-way will
be extended to 110', including a 7' landscaped parkway and 5' sidewalk which will encourage
pedestrian circulation and allow space for thematic fencing.
Two entries to Arbor Vista will be provided through a connection to and an extension of Via Lobo
Road, which will be improved to include a 77' right -of way (42' curb to curb). Both locations will
potentially include private gated entries. The public portion of the Via Lobo Road terminates in a bulb
which includes a circular planting area, then transitions into "A" Street, a private neighborhood street.
The other entry to Arbor Vista is "C" Street, a private road having a 65' maximum right-of-way and 41'
maximum width curb to curb at the connection with Via Lobo Road.
Interior circulation to homes shall be provided on private streets having a 37'— 4l' right-of-way and 32'
curb to curb width with parking on one side as shown on Exhibit E, Interior Street Sections. Final road
alignments may vary slightly from those depicted on Exhibit A, as determined in the final tract map if
found to be in substantial conformance with these concepts.
' C. Parks. Open space is incorporated throughout Arbor Vista and active and passive recreation will be
offered to both residents and the public. Nicolas Road Park, a 6.4 acre active recreation will feature an
interactive water play facility and shade structures, complementing the City of Temecula's existing
public parks by offering a fun, safe, cooling summer play area not currently available in the vicinity.
Turf and picnic areas are also included and the park will be accessed by the public via Nicolas Road,
where ten public parking spaces will be included. Residents of Arbor Vista will access the park by a
private trail connecting from C Street along the eastern boundary. Exhibits F, G, and H are an artist's
interpretation of the park amenities and are not to be interpreted as final. The final design will be
approved during final tract map stage and the amenities shall be approved by the parks director.
In addition to the public park, open space totaling 43.3 acres is planned within Arbor Vista, comprising
of 59% of the total site area including the Santa Gertrudis Creek jurisdictional area. A regional trail
extending from east to west through the site north of the creek provides public access to the open space.
The high percentage of open space within the community will provide an ample buffer from adjacent
neighborhoods and a feeling of spaciousness.
D. Monuments and Fences. Serving as a major unifying element, the theme walls, fencing, and
monuments of Arbor Vista will reflect the rural, agricultural design theme of the surrounding area and
will be in accordance with the Nicolas Valley Design Guidelines. A positive first impression of the
community will be generated by the inclusion of a white rail fence with river rock stone pilasters along
the northern boundary parallel to Nicolas Road. The design of this fence will harmonize with the
existing fence on the north side of Nicolas Road, extending the previously established Nicolas Valley
design theme.
Design of the entry monuments will be understated in nature and reflect the high degree of design
integrity found throughout the community. As shown on Exhibit !, a Nicolas Valley entry monument
will be included at the comer of Nicolas Road and Via Lobo Parkway. In addition, entry monuments
announcing arrival into Arbor Vista will be located at both entries from Via Lobo Road, and a 3' high
river rock theme wall will extend along the eastern side of Via Lobo Road north of the "C" Street entry.
' Exhibits I and K depict the locations and styles of the other walls and fences in Arbor Vista. View
fencing consisting of a 2' block wall and 4' black wrought iron will be located at the rear of lots having
views. Exposed side yards will incorporate 6' high sandstone colored split face block walls, and interior
separations between lots will consist of 5'6"white vinyl fencing. These features, while conceptual in
nature, comply with the theme established by the Nicolas Valley Design Guidelines.
E. Trails and sidewalks. An extensive pedestrian circulation system provides convenient access to all
community elements, potentially helping to promote health and wellness of residents. Along the
northern boundary of the site, the Nicolas Road right-of-way includes a 5' wide sidewalk. An adjacent
5' wide decomposed granite trail outside the right -of way provides a total trail width of 10' as shown on
Exhibit C, Nicolas Road Street Section. This trail provides the public convenient pedestrian and bicycle
access to Nicolas Road Park.
Via Lobo Road includes a 6' sidewalk along the west side and a 6' wide paved regional trail along the
east side as shown on Exhibit D, Via Lobo Road Section. Near the end of the public portion of the street,
the regional trail crosses Via Lobo Road as shown on Exhibit A. The trail then transitions to an 8'
decomposed granite walkway which parallels Santa Gertrudis Creek south of "A" Street, and connects
to an existing trail at the eastern boundary of the site.
An additional 6' decomposed granite trail connects the terminus of "C" Street to Nicolas Road Park,
providing private access to residents. Every home within Arbor Vista will enjoy pedestrian connection
to the regional trail network from 4' curb adjacent sidewalks included on both sides of all private
' neighborhood streets as shown on Exhibit E, Interior Street Section.
F. Landscaping. The landscape design of Arbor Vista will reflect the rural, agricultural theme of the
community and the plant palette will consist of native plants and other climate appropriate materials.
Water conservation, disease resistant, low maintenance materials will be given priority as will plants that
offer seasonal variation. The landscape plan will comply with Chapter 17.32 of the Municipal Code and
the Nicolas Valley Design Guidelines.
The Plant Material List, shown in Exhibit M, describes the menu of acceptable plant types, sizes,
spacing, and water use in Arbor Vista. Exhibits O, P, and Q depict the typical landscape treatment for
front and exterior side yard, cul-de-sac, and private slope conditions. These landscape treatments are
based on the minimum setbacks provided herein. The types of plants shown in each Exhibit are
conceptual and the locations and types of plants and will be determined during the final landscape plan.
The final planting plan may vary within the Arbor Vista Landscape Plant Palette.
Exhibit L includes preliminary locations and images of typical rural street lighting treatments (variations
are permitted). Low pressure sodium or LED, downward directed lights will be located on one side of
the street, spaced 120' — 170'apart, and will meet all applicable illumination standards. Solar powered
lighting is encouraged.
G. Architecture. High quality neighborhood design is a priority at Arbor Vista, and creating interesting
and aesthetically pleasing streetscapes is a central goal of the community design. The level of detail and
quality of architectural treatments for the homes will be significantly higher than that of the surrounding
' community.
A high degree of variation in building massing at Arbor Vista has been provided to avoid the
monotonous "canyon effect" of flat, two-story homes along residential streets. One-story home plans
comprise 25% of the floor plans and 50% are two-story homes with one-story elements along the street.
To minimize the impact of garages, 25% of plans feature a `living" portion of the home forward, with
' the garage a minimum of 6' behind the front plane of the living space. The inclusion of front porches
and second story balconies also add interest to the streetscapes of Arbor Vista. Exhibit T includes
minimum lot setback standards and includes footprints of the four Arbor Vista floor plans. Variation in
massing is also achieved through inclusion of variations in roof pitch from 4:12 to 6:12.
Each of the four floor plans at Arbor Vista has been executed in three architectural styles, creating
twelve distinctly different home designs, bringing a high degree of interest to every street. Colors and
materials, including brick, stucco, horizontal lap siding, stacked stone, and carriage type garage doors
have been carefully chosen to authentically express the essential elements of each style. All architectural
features thoughtfully reflect a high level of quality and attention to detail, including arched entryways
with ceramic tile accents, entry towers, sculpted pot shelves, and three types of entry carriage lights,
ensuring that each home is distinctly different from others surrounding it.
Another important design consideration well executed at Arbor Vista is attention to all four elevations of
a home rather than only the front. Enhanced rear and side elevations bring the same degree of quality
shown in the front to the entire home, as shown in Exhibit S, Architectural Elevations. Examples include
second floor projections with siding on rear elevations, wrought iron detailing on rear covered patios
matching front detailing, and shutters on rear windows.
The three architectural styles chosen for Arbor Vista include Spanish, Traditional, and Craftsman (see
Exhibit R, Architectural Styles) and are intended to complement the rural character of the area. This list
of styles has been formed to provide architectural character fitting for the context of the site, and variety
to the street scene but is not to be considered exclusive. Variations can be approved through the
' development review process. Four diverse plan types are proposed, creating a rich architectural palette
which will result in neighborhoods with articulation, variation and visual interest.
H. Drainage, Grading, and Utilities. The proposed grading and drainage plan for Arbor Vista reflects a
great sensitivity to the natural characteristics and features of the site. On-site drainage and off-site
drainage from Via Lobo will be diverted into two desiltation basins on the western side of the property.
The conceptual grading and drainage plan as well as proposed utility locations are depicted on the
accompanying Tentative Tract Map # 36479. The final grading plan and locations and sizes of the
infrastructure shall be determined during the final grading plan and tract map.

City of Temecula Arbor Vista PDO Application
ATTACHMENT A
SECTION I. JUSTIFICATION OF PROPOSAL
The following provides the justifications as required per Section I of the Land Use Amendments:
General Plan, Zoning and Specific Plans application.
Arbor Vista is a proposal for an 83 -unit residential community on 73.3 -acres that clusters
development in a 22.2 -acre area in order to preserve the Santa Gertrudis Creek as natural open
space, avoid the 100 -year Flood plain, improve drainage and water quality, and provide 49.7 -
acres of public and private recreation and open space area.
Implementation of Arbor Vista requires the following amendments to the Zoning Map, Zoning
Code text, and General Plan map:
• Amend the Zoning Map to add the Planned Development Overlay (PDO).
• Amend the text of the Zoning Code to add the Arbor Vista Planned Development
Overlay district.
• Amend the General Plan map to change the land use designation from Very Low Density
Residential (0.2-0.4 Du/Ac Max) to Low Density Residential (0.5-2Du/Ac Max)
These amendments are justified due to the following:
ZONING AMENDMENT
1. Compatibility with Surrounding Land Uses: The 73 -acre parcel is adjacent to Very Low
Density Residential designated subdivisions the south and east and low Medium Density
Residential designated subdivisions to the north and west. On a gross basis, the proposed PDO
overlay would allow 1.13 dwelling unit per gross acre clustered onto 30 % of the site while
designating 68% of the site as open space and recreation and preserving the Santa Gertrudis
Creek.
The proposed development meshes with the character, density, and uses of surrounding
residential development. In fact, as the attached sections show, Arbor Vista is largely screened
from surrounding development and it will not be possible to get a sense of the scale or density
of development from the surrounding properties. The northern edge of Arbor Vista, adjacent to
Nicolas Road, is 771' long and would contain a detention basin totaling 280 linear feet while the
remaining 491' would be devoted to a public park. The northern side of Nicolas Road contains a
bike path, a park, and a concrete -sided drainage channel with a residential subdivision
designated as Low Medium Density Residential beyond. The western edge of Arbor Vista, which
is adjacent to Via Lobo Road and abuts a residential subdivision designated as Low Medium
Density Residential, contains a detention basin, landscaped slope, and a park. Seven residential
lots are located along this side of Arbor Vista but set back a minimum of 27' from the Via Lobo
Road right-of-way. The eastern edge, which is 3330 linear feet and abuts property designated
and developed as Very Low Density Residential, is devoted entirely to open space except for
portions of four residential lots. The southern edge of Arbor Vista is natural open space
Regent Properties January18, 1014
City of Temecula
Arbor Vista PDO Application
' preserving the Santa Gertrudis Creek. Finally, Nicolas Road would be landscaped and treated in
a manner consistent with the Nicolas Valley Design Guidelines.
2. Quality of Life: The proposed amendments allow a slight increase in density, which would be
clustered on the northern section of the site in order to preserve the natural water course on
the southern edge of the project, and allow for the improvement of regional drainage and water
quality and the provision of a portion of the regional trail and public and private parks, which
will enhance the quality of life not only for Arbor Vista residents, but for the entire community.
By clustering development on the site, 83 residential lots can be developed on 22.2 acres of the
site, allowing for the preservation of 43.3 acres of the site for open space and approximately 6.4
acres for park space. The plan also includes a proposed public regional trail that will connect
with the City's Trail Plan.
Furthermore, the proposed development area is situated so that development will not be clearly
visible from the Nicolas or Via Lobo Roads due to the uses proposed along the edges (discussed
above) and elevation of the site (see attached sections). As a result, views of the site from
surrounding properties will not be negatively impacted.
The proposed amendments allows for development to be clustered on the northern section of
the site while preserving the natural water course in the southern section. The proposed
development would include approximately 1.4 acres of detention basins that would improve
' drainage in the area, reduce water volumes flowing directly into the creek thereby reducing
flood threats, and function as a filter for pollutants and sediment prior to entering the creek.
3. Infrastructure: The proposed 83 -unit development area will provide new water, sewer, and
roadway infrastructure and result in needs for city services, such as police and fire. However,
the proposal includes an additional 54 lots above what would be permitted by the existing
zoning, which would not represent a significant increase in demand. The provision of parks, a
regional trail, preservation of Santa Gertrudis Creek, and flood and drainage improvements
would help offset any demands for services and infrastructure.
4. Legal Non -conforming Use: All uses within the proposed PDO conform to uses specified in the
City Zoning Code for residential uses and would not result in any legal non -conforming uses.
GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT
1. Consistency with the General Plan: The project involves amending the General Plan map
from Very Low Density Residential to Low Density Residential. The residential use would not
change; however, the permitted density would increase as a result of the amendment. Upon
amendment, the proposed project would be consistent with the General Plan. As will be
documented in the Planned Development Overlay and Home Product Review process, the
project would be consistent with the other provisions of the General Plan.
2. Traffic Impact: The project would result in an additional 54 units above what is permitted by
the current general plan designation, or approximately 794 daily trips (ITE Manual of 9.57 trips
per detached unit) and approximately 79 PM peak hour trips, which does not represent a
significant increase in vehicular trips. The provision of a section of the regional trail that would
Regent Properties January 28, 2014
City of Temecula
Arbor Vista PDO Application
' be realized by proposed project would help provide regional connectivity, provide both
recreational benefits and commute options, and help reduce vehicular trips.
3. Impact on Welfare of Surrounding Residents: See response p 2 under the zoning amendment
section above.
4. Consistency with Surrounding Character: See response # 1 under the zoning amendment
section above.
