findings:
A. Pursuant to Government Code Section 65360, a newly incorporated city shall adopt
a general plan within thirty (30) months following incorporation. During that 30-month period

requirements of state law that its decisions be consistent with the general plan, if all of the
following requirements are met:
Rcsos 91-92 -1-
1. The City is proceeding in a timely fashion with the preparation of the general
2. The planning agency finds, in approving project and taking other actions,
including the issuance of building permits, each of the following:
a. There is a reasonable probability that the land use or action proposed will
be consistent with the general plan proposal being considered or studied or 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
requirements of state law and local ordinances.
B. The Riverside County General Plan, as amended by the Southwest Are Community
Plan, (hereinafter "SWAP") was adopted prior to the incorporation of TEMECULA as the General
Plan for the southwest portion of Riverside County, including the area now within the boundaries
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 City Council in approving the proposed Change of Zone, makes the following
findings, to wit:
a. The proposed zone change will not have a significant adverse effect on the
environment, as determined in the Initial Study performed for this project. A negative Declaration
is recommended for adoption.
b. There is not a reasonable probability of substantial detriment to, or interference
with, the future and adopted General Plan, if the proposed use or action is ultimately inconsistent
with the plan. The project is not of significant scope in the context of city-wide and regional
development patterns.
c. The proposed change in district classification is reasonable and beneficial at this
time as it is logical expansion of residential uses which exist in the vicinity of the project site.
d. The proposed change in district classification from R-A 2 1\2 to R-A will likely
be consistent with the goals, policies and action programs which will be contained in the General
Plan when it is ultimately adopted. The density and land use proposed are consistent with the
Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) recommendations for the subject property. Further, densities and
uses proposed are similar to existing densities and uses in the vicinity of the project.
Resos 91-92 -2-
e. The site of the proposed change in district classification is suitable to
accommodate all the land uses currenfiy permitted in the proposed zoning district as it is of
adequate size and shape for the proposed residential use. Possible land use conflicts are not likely
to arise as the project proposes residential uses similar to those existing in the general vicinity of
the subject site.
f. Adequate access exists for the proposed residential land use from Ynez Road and
Santiago Road. Additional internal access and requirement road improvements abutting proposed
lots will be designed and constructed in conformance with City standards.
g. Provisions for future access has been considered for parcels in the vicinity of
and adjacent to Tentative Parcel Map No. 26845, and are found to be adequate.
h. That said findings are supported by analysis, minutes, maps, exhibits, and
environmental documents associated with this application and herein incorporated by reference.
D. The Change of Zone is compatible with the health, safety and welfare of the
community.
SECTION 2. F. nvironmental Conzpliance. An Initial Study prepared for this project
indicates that although the proposed project could have a significant impact on the environment,
there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described in the
Conditions of Approval have been added to the project, and a Negative Declaration, therefore,
recommended.
SECTION 3. That the City of Temecula City Council hereby approved Change of Zone
No. 14 to change the zoning on 3.68 acres of land from R-A 2 1/2 to R-A at the northeast comer
of Ynez Road and Santiago Road and known as Assessor's Parcel No. 945-060-007.
