Resos 90-120 I
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 requirement of state
law and local ordinances.
B. The Riverside County General Plan, as amended by the Southwest Area 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 proposed Tentative Tract Map is consistent with the SWAP and meets the
requirements set forth in Section 65360 of the Government Code, to wit:
1. The city is proceeding in a timely fashion with a preparation of the general plan.
2. The Planning Commission finds, in recommending approval of 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 Tentative Tract Map No. 26549 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 complies with all other applicable requirements of state
law and local ordinances.
D. 1. Pursuant to Section 7.1 of County Ordinance No. 460, no subdivision may be
approved unless the following findings are made:
a. That the proposed land division is consistent with applicable general and specific
plans.
b. That the design or improvement of the proposed land division is consistent with
applicable general and specific plans.
c. That the site of the proposed land division is physically suitable for the type of
development.
Resoa 90-120 2
d. That the site of the proposed land division is physically suitable for the proposed
density of the development.
e. That the design of the proposed land division or proposed improvement are not likely
to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife
or their habitat.
f. That the design of the proposed land division or the type improvements are not likely
to cause serious public health problems.
g. That the design of the proposed land division or the type of improvements will not
conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through, or use of, property
within the proposed land division. A land division may be approved if it is found that alternate
easements for access or for use will be provided and that they will be substantially equivalent
to ones previously acquired by the public. This subsection shall apply only to easements of
records or to easements established by judgement of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(2) The Council in approving of the proposed Tentative Tract Map, makes the following
findings, to wit:
a. There is a reasonable probability that Tentative Tract No. 26549 will be consistent
with the City's future General Plan, which will be completed within a reasonable time in
accordance with State Law.
b. There is not a likely 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.
c. The proposed use or action complies with State planning and zoning laws.
d. The site is suitable to accommodate the proposed land use in terms of the circulation
patterns, access, and density.
e. The project as designed and conditioned will not adversely affect the public health or
welfare.
f. Tentative Tract No. 26549 is compatible with surrounding land uses. The harmony
in scale, bulk, height, density, and coverage is likely to create a compatible physical relationship
with adjoining properties.
g. The proposal will not have an adverse affect on surrounding property, because it does
not represent a significant change to the present or planned land use of the area.
h. The project as designed and conditioned will not adversely affect the built or natural
environment as determined in the Initial Study for this project.
i. That said findings are supported by minutes, maps, exhibits, and environmental
Resos 90-120 3
documents associated with this application are herein incorporated by reference.
j. The project will not have a significant adverse impact on the environment in that
Stepben's Kangaroo Rat Habitat Conservation fees are required and archaeological resources are
not likely to be found at the site.
k. The project will not be detrimental to human health or safety in that drainage and
flood control measures must be approved by FEMA prior to map recordation, and the potential
for liquefaction, differential subsidence, and surface fissuring at the site are very low. A soils
report must be submitted to the Building and Safety Department addressing soil stability and
geological conditions.
E. As conditioned pursuant to SECTION 3, the Tentative Tract Map is compatible with
the health, safety and welfare of the community.
Section 2. Environmental Compliance. 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, is hereby granted.
Section 3. Conditions. That the City of Temecula Planning Commission hereby
approves Tentative Tract Map No. 26549 for the subdivision of a 22.22 acre parcel into 260
townhouses located on Rancho California Road and known as Assessor's Parcel No. 944-290-
