Re~oa\ 92-27 -1-
which will be studied within a reasonable time.
b. There is little or no probability of substantial detriment to or
interference with the future adopted general plan if the proposed use or action is
ultimately inconsistent with the plan.
c. The proposed use or action complied with all other applicable

B. The Riverside County General Plan, as mended by the Southwest Area Community
Plan, (hereinafter "SWAP") was adopted prior to the incorporation of Temecula as the General

of the City. At this time, the City has adopted SWAP as its General Plan guidelines while the
City is proceeding in a timely fashion with the preparation of its General Plan.
C. The proposed Tract Map is consistent with the SWAP and meets the requirements
set forth in Section 65360 of the Government Code, to wit:
The City is proceeding in a timely fashion with a preparation of the general
2. The City Council rims, in approving projects and taking other actions,
including the issuance of building permits, pursuant to this title, each of the following:
a. There is reasonable probability that Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.
26828 proposed will be consistent with the general plan proposal being considered

requirements of state law and local ordinances.
D. Pursuant to Section 7.1 of County Ordinance No. 460, no subdivision may be
approved unless the following findings are made:
1. The proposed Parcel Map will not have significant impact on the
environment, as determined in the Initial Environmental Assessment prepared for Vesting
Tentative Parcel Map No. 26828. A Negative Declaration is recommended for adoption.
2. There is a reasonable probability that this proposal will be consistent with
Resos\ 92-27 -2-
the General Plan being prepared at this time. The map together with the attendant zone
change request are consistent with applicable subdivision and land use ordinances, and
conform with the City's Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) guidelines affecting the subject
property.
3. There is not a likely probability of substantial detriment to, or interference
with, the future adopted General Plan, if the proposed use is ultimately inconsistent with
the plan. The project is consistent with surrounding development, and does not logically
have the potential to generate significant adverse environmental impacts.
4. The proposed use or action complies with City and State planning and
zoning laws. Reference local Ordinances No. 348, 460, California Governmental Code
Sections 65000-66009 (Planning Zoning Law), and Government Code Title 7, Division
2.
5. The site is suitable to accommodate the proposed land use access to public
rights-of-way, and is designed with sufficient parcel acreage allowing appropriate building
pad sightings.
6. The project as designed and conditioned will not adversely affect the built
or natural environment as determined in the initial study prepared for this project.
Reference the attached Initial Environment Study and Conditions of Approval for Vesting
Tentative Tract Map No. 26828.
7. The design of the subdivision, the type of improvements and the resulting
street layout are such that they are not in conflict with easements for access through or use
of the property within the proposed project as conditioned. Easement dedications are not
evident in grant deeds describing the property.
8. The site for the proposed use is provided legal access via Rita Way and
Seraphina Road public rights-of-way. Development of these roads shall comply with City
Engineering Conditions of Approval contained herein.
9. The proposed project will not inhibit or restrict future ability to use active
or passive solar energy systems. Adequate lot areas and exposures are provided for these
alternatives.
10. The proposed use will not have a substantial adverse affect on abutting
properties or the permitted use thereof. The proposed map provides for residential
development similar in character and densities evident on vicinity properties. Land use
incongruities and associated adverse affects arising from implementation of this proposal
are unlikely.
Resos\ 92-27 -3-
11. The Airport Land Use Commission is making substantial progress toward
the completion of a land use plan.
12. There is reasonable probability that the action, regulation, or permit will be
consistent with the plan being considered by the Airport Land Use Commission.

E. The City Council in approving the proposed Vesting Tentative Tract Map, makes
the following findings, to wit:
1. The Proposed Tract Map may have significant negative impact on the
environment, as a result of potential future impacts from the French Valley Airport.
2. There is a reasonable probability that this proposal will not be consistent
with the General Plan being prepared at this time. The map together with the attendant
zone change request are consistent with applicable subdivision and land use ordinances,
and conform with the City's Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) guidelines affecting the subject
property, however, an Airport Land Use Plan has not been adopted for the French Valley
Airport, future General Plan consistency can not be determined.
3. There is a likely probability of substantial detriment to, or interference with,

plan. The project is consistent with surrounding development, however it may have the
potential to generate significant adverse environmental impacts.
4. The proposed use or action complies with City and State planning and
zoning laws. Reference local Ordinances No. 348, 460, California Governmental Code
Sections 65000-66009 (Planning Zoning Law), and Government Code Title 7, Division
2.
5. The site is suitable to accommodate the proposed land use in terms of the
size and shape of parcel configurations, access, and density. The project has access to
public rights-of-way, and is designed with sufficient parcel acreage allowing appropriate
building pad sightings.
6. The project as designed and conditioned will adversely affect the built or
natural environment as determined by the City Council relative to the French Valley
7. The design of the subdivision, the type of improvements and the resulting
Resos\ 92-27 -4-
street layout are such that they are not in conflict with easements for access through or use
of the property within the proposed project as conditioned. Easement dedications are not
