Development Plan, Development Code Section 17.05.010.F
A. The proposed use is in conformance with the General Plan for Temecula and with
all applicable requirements of State law and other Ordinances of the City;
The proposed single-family homes are permitted in the land use designation standards
contained in the Roripaugh Ranch Specific Plan and the City's Development Code. The
project is also consistent with General Plan land use of Specific Plan Implementation. The
site is properly planned and zoned and, as conditioned, is physically suitable for the type
and density of residential development proposed. The project, as conditioned, is also
consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local ordinances, including
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City Wide Design Guidelines, and
fire and building codes.
B. The overall development of the land is designed for the protection of the public
health, safety, and general welfare;
The overall design of the single-family homes, including the site, building, parking,
circulation and other associated site improvements, is consistent with, and intended to
protect the health and safety of the community. The project has been reviewed for and, as
conditioned, has been found to be consistent with all applicable policies, guidelines,
standards and regulations intended to ensure that the development will be constructed and
function in a manner consistent with the protection of the public health, safety, and welfare.
Section 3. Environmental Findings. The Planning Commission hereby makes the
following environmental findings and determinations in connection with the approval of the Home
Product Review:
The Roripaugh Ranch Specific Plan was formally adopted in 2002. An Environmental
Impact Report (EIR) was prepared and certified on December 17, 2002 as part of this
effort. Since that time,five EIR Addendums have been prepared for the project area with
the most recent adopted on January 14, 2020. The proposed project has been determined
to be consistent with the previously adopted Roripaugh Ranch EIR Addendum and is
exempt from further environmental review (Section 15162, Subsequent EIRs and Negative
Declarations). Staff has reviewed the EIR, the First Addendum to the EIR adopted on April
23, 2013, the Second Addendum to the EIR adopted on March 22, 2016, the Third
Addendum to the EIR adopted on January 23, 2018, the Fourth Addendum to the EIR
adopted on November 6, 2019, the Fifth Addendum to the EIR adopted on January 14,
2020(collectively "Addenda"), and has determined that the proposed project is consistent
with the EIR and Addenda as the proposed project merely implements the development that
was already contemplated and analyzed by the EIR and Addenda. As such, the proposed
project does not require the preparation of a subsequent Environmental Impact Report or
Mitigated Negative Declaration as none of the conditions described in Section 15162 of
the CEQA Guidelines(14 Cal. Code Regs. 15162) exist. Additionally, the proposed project
does not require the preparation of an addendum to the EIR as there are no changes or
additions to the proposed project from what was analyzed by the EIR and the Addenda.
Therefore, no further environmental review is required as all environmental impacts of the
proposed project were analyzed, disclosed, and mitigated as set forth in the EIR and
Addenda. Moreover, the mitigation measures imposed as part of the EIR and Addenda
remain valid and applicable to the proposed project.
Section 4. Conditions. The Planning Commission of the City of Temecula approves
Planning Application No. PA20-0330, Home Product Review for Planning Area 24 of the
Roripaugh Ranch Specific Plan to allow for four (4) unique detached single-family plans with
three (3) architectural styles consisting of 70 lots, subject to the Conditions of Approval set forth
on Exhibit A, attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED by the City of Temecula Planning Commission
