R:\MinutesPC\2003\ 121703
Senior Planner Naaseh presented a brief staff report (as per agenda material), noting the
following:
.
. That the applicant requested to amend the Sign Program to allow placement of second-
story signage on the Promenade Medical Building;
. That the building has been approved for a sign program that allows first-story signage,
signage on the towers, but that does allow second-story sign age;
. That the Development Code would permit tenant identification signs for office buildings if
the main entrances to each suite were from the exterior of the building;
. That if the Commission would permit second-story signage, the Development Code,
under the Sign Program, would allow staff to exceed the requirements and standards of
the Development Code, as long as the proposed signs enhance the existing building;
. That the proposed channel letters will not enhance the existing building.
At this time, the public hearing was opened.
Mr. Ed Anderson, 41278 Margarita Road, Manager of the Limited Liability Corporation (LLC),
spoke in favor of second-story signage, relaying the following:
That the applicant has met with staff and that the proposed two signs on the second-
floor would be to identify two doctors;
.
. That the two doctors in the building are a new orthopedic office relying on signage for
business;
. That the property was purchased as a commercial piece of property anticipating that the
building would receive the benefits of retail pricing and retail identification;
That the Development Code would allow for signage on the second-floor if:
0 The entrances were directly from the outside;
0
The upper suites were to haye entrances directly to the outside;
0 The lettering on signage would be black lettering the applicant is looking for
direction from the Commission.
Dr. Herron, 41278 Margarita Road, relayed that in order to reduce signage to Advanced
Orthopedic yersus Adyanced Orthopedic Surgery Center, it would require his name to be
changed through the Medical Board of California,
At this time, the public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Mathewson expressed reservations with channel lettering, size, and style of the
proposed signs, noting that this would detract from the architectural style of the building.

BACKGROUND SUMMARY:
~1.
Staff has worked with the applicant to ensure that all concerns have been addressed,
and the applicant concurs with the recommended Conditions of Approval.
~2.
The attached "Project Review Worksheet" has been completed and staff has
determined that the proposed project is consistent with the General Plan, city-wide
Design Guidelines, the Old Town Specific Plan, and the Development Code with the
exception of the proposed building height and number of stories, for which the Old Town
Specific Plan allows the City Council approval of increased heights. On October 13,
2003 the Old Town Local Review Board reviewed the proposed project and made
similar findings of consistency and made a recommendation for approyal of the project.
ANALYSIS
Site Plan
The proposed building will be located adjacent to the existing Chaparral Center, which is situated
on the south side of the project site, with no setback between the buildings. Visually, the
building will look like an expansion of the existing Chaparral Center.
.
R:ID NOO3\O3-0471 Chaparral Center ExpansionlSTAFF REPORT,doc
2
.
.
.
The building setbacks either meet or exceed the minimum requirements of the Specific Plan and
the proposed 71.5% lot coverage is well below the maximum permitted lot coverage of 100%.
Although the Old Town Specific Plan does not require that parking spaces be provided, a total of
7 spaces have been provided and the proposed site plan provides adequate circulation for
vehicles anticipated to utilize the site.
The project has been conditioned to record a parcel merger prior to issuance of a building permit
in order to avoid building oyer lot lines.
Architecture
The architectural style for the proposed building is the Old Town western style. The proposed
building will incorporate architectural features from the existing Chaparral Center including
expansive porch and balcony areas, knee braces at posts, wood sash windows, vertical board
and batten siding, wood lap siding, roof shingles to match those used on the existing Chaparral
Center, and varying rooflines to minimize building massing and to visually tie the proposed
building to the existing Chaparral Center. Exterior colors will match those of the existing
Chaparral Center. The architectural plans indicate locations for building and tenant signs and a
potential mural. The project has been conditioned to submit and receive approval for a detailed
sign program prior to issuance of a building permit.
The project, which will be architecturally integrated with the existing three-story and forty-seven
foot tall Chaparral Center, conforms to all the development regulations of the Old Town Specific
Plan with the exception of the proposed building height and number of stories. The Old Town
Specific Plan limits building heights to two stories and 28.0 feet, while like the existing Chaparral
Center building, the proposed building has three stories and a height of 44 feet 10 inches.
However, Section III.F.8 of the Specific Plan allows the City Council to approve increases to the
building height limitations. Staff has determined that an increase to the height limitations for the
proposed project is justified because the proposed building is essentially an expansion of the
existing Chaparral Center, which does have three stories and a height of 47 feet. Furthermore,
the proposed building allows for additional retail and office space in Old Town and the generous
porch and balcony areas and varying rooflines minimize building massing and visually tie the
proposed building to the existing Chaparral Center, resulting in a desirable addition to Old Town
Front Street.
The project has been conditioned that final approval of this development plan is contingent upon
City Council approval of the proposed building height of 44 feet 10 inches and three stories
(condition of approval no. 3).
The landscape plan conforms to the landscape requirements of the Old Town Specific Plan.
Plant materials include Purple Leaf Plum and Evergreen Pear trees, Fortnight Iris, Escallonia,
Daylily, Variegated Tobira and Wheeler's Dwarf Tobira shrubs and Boston Ivy. Plant materials
and placement carry out the Old West theme, soften the development and unify the area as a
pleasant environment. The landscaping also serves to tie the project to the existing Chaparral
Center in that the landscaping theme from the existing building is carried over to the proposed
building. Existing trees and shrubs along Old Town Front Street will be protected during
construction and will remain in place.
The project proposes to landscape 1,732 square feet or 9.9 percent of the site, which exceeds
the minimum requirement of zero percent in the TRC (Tourist Retail Core) land use district of the
Old Town Specific Plan. The Old Town Specific Plan recommends a minimum of one 15-gallon
R:\D 1'12003\03-0471 Chaparral Cenler Expansion\STAFF REPORT-doc
3
size tree for eyery 800 square feet of landscaping and one shrub or vine for eyery 50 feet of
landscaping proYided. The project far exceeds this recommendation since the project should
proYide a minimum of two trees and thirty-five shrubs based on the Specific Plan
recommendations, while seven trees and 162 shrubs are provided. Although the Old Town
Specific Plan states that shrubs should be a minimum of 5-gallon size at time of planting, the
project proposes ninety-five 1-gallon daylilies. Howeyer, staff has determined that this is
acceptable because 108 5-gallon shrubs will be provided, thereby exceeding the recommended
number of 5-gallon shrubs by seventy-three.
Access and Circulation
The Public Works Department has analyzed the projected traffic impact of the project and has
determined that the impacts are consistent with the traffic volumes projected for the site by the
previously approved City General Plan EIR. The Fire Department also reviewed the plan and
determined that there is proper access and circulation to provide emergency services to the
site.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
[8J 1.
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed Project has
been deemed to be categorically exempt from further enyironmental review. (Class,
15332, In-Fill Development Project)
CONCLUSIONJRECOMM ENDA TION:
Staff has determined that with the exception of the proposed building height and number of
stories, the proposed project, as conditioned, is consistent with the City's General Plan, Old
Town Specific Plan, Development Code, and all applicable ordinances, standards, guidelines,
and policies. Because the Old Town Specific Plan does allow City Council to approve increases
to the limitations on building height and number of stories, the project has been conditioned that
final approval of this development plan is contingent upon City Council approval of the proposed
building height of 44 feet 10 inches and three stories (condition of approval no. 3). Therefore,
staff recommends that the Planning Commission adopt a Resolution approving the Development
Plan with the attached conditions of approval.
FINDINGS
1.
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 proposal is consistent with the General Plan land use policies for Community
Commercial (CC) development in the City of Temecula General Plan, as wel1 as the
development standards for the Tourist Retail Core (TRC) land use district of the Old
Town Specific Plan with the exception of the proposed building height, for which Section
III.F.B of the Specific Plan al1ows for City Council approval of increased building heights.
The proposed increase to the building height limitations and number of stories are
justified because the proposed building al1ows for additional retail and office space in Old
Town and provides architectural features that are appropriate to the site and that match
the existing Chaparral Center including generous porch and balcony areas and varying
rooflines that visual1y tie the proposed building to the existing three-story and 47 foot tal1

.
Chaparral center, resulting in a desirable addition to Old Town Front Street. A
commercial building and uses are typical land uses found in the Community Commercial
land use designation within the General Plan. The Land Use Element of the General
Plan requires that proposed buildings be compatible with existing buildings. The
proposed commercial use is compatible with the surrounding commercial buildings
currently located adjacent to the proposed site.
2.
The overall development of the land is designed for the protection of the public health,
safety, and general welfare.
The architecture proposed for the building meets the architectural requirements as stated
in the Site Development Standards of the Old Town Specific Plan. The proposed
building architecture and building materials have been found to be compatible with the
adjacent buildings. The varying building shapes and offsets provided serve to break up
the massing of the building. The proposed architecture complements and enhances the
visual character along Old Town Front Street and will be a welcome addition to the
existing buildings.
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 public
health, safety and welfare.

Site Planninq:
A. How does the placement of building(s) consider the surrounding area
character?
The proposed building placement is consistent with that of the existing
Chaparral Center and is consistent with the Old Town Specific Plan.
B. How do the structures interface with adjoining properties to avoid creating
nuisances and hazards?
The proposed project is essentially an expansion of the existing Chaparral
Center and is architecturally integrated with the existing building.
.
C. How does the building placement allow buildings rather than parking lots
to define the street edge?
As allowed by the Old Town Specific Plan, the front setback is a feet.
Although not required by the Old Town Specific Plan, a parking area is
provided at the rear of the building.
181
Parkinq and Circulation:
A. How does the parking lot design allow customers and deliveries to reach
the site, circulate through the parking lot, and exit the site easily?
Although not required by the Old Town Specific Plan, a parking area is
provided at the rear of the builiding. Because the Old Town Specific Plan
does not require that parking be provided for this type of project, the project
does exceed the requirements of the Specific Plan.
B. How does the parking lot design provide safe and convenient access to
pedestrians and bicyclists?
The parking lot is located at the rear of the building where traffic volume will
be low due to the number of parking spaces available and where traffic
speed will be low due to the layout and size of the parking are, therebyhere
allowing safe and convenient pedestrian and bicycle access. .
C. How are the service facilities within the parking lot screened or buffered

from public view?
Trash bins to be located within the parking lot area will be screened with a

~
Buildinq Architecture:
A. How does the building design proYide articulation of the building mass?
The building design includes a variety of rooflines, porches and balconies,
siding materials and window sizes to provide articulation of the building
mass.
B. How is each building "stylistically" consistent with all buildings in a
complex, and on all elevations to achieve design harmony and continuity
within itself?
The proposed project is essentially an expansion of the existing Chaparral
Center and is architecturally integrated with the existing building.
C. How does the placement of buildings create a more functional or useful
open space between the buildings and/or the street?
As allowed by the Old Town Specific Plan, the building has a foot setbacks
for both the front and side. This allows for greater building area and is
consistent with the goals of the Specific Plan. The design also lends to the
"Old Town" ambiance and creates a more pedestrian friendly atmosphere.
D. How do each of the architectural elements (building base, windows,
doors and openings, cornice and parapet, roofline, and finish materials
meet the intent of the design guidelines?
The architectural elements of the proposed Chaparral Expansion will match
those of the exisiting Chaparral Center, thereby meeting the intent of the
Specific Plan design guidelines. Plywood siding, which was used on the
existing Chaparral Center, will not be allowed as the Specific Plan does not
allow for the use of plywood on exterior surfaces visible to the public.

Landscapinq:
A. Does the plan provide the following ratio of plantings?
DYes t81 No, why? The Old Town Specific Plan states that
shrubs should be a minimum of 5-gallon size at time of planting, but the
project proposes ninety-five 1-gallon daylilies. However, 108 5-gallon
shrubs will be provided, thereby exceeding the number recommended
of shrubs recommended by the Specific Plan by seventy-three.

B. Does the landscaped area, ratio, spacing, and size conform with the
design guidelines? ~ Yes D No
.
C. How does the internal site landscaping frame the building(s) and
separate them from the surrounding pavements?
The Old Town Specific Plan goals related to landscaping are different than
those for other areas within the City. Per the Specific Plan, informal
landscape forms should be utilized on major thoroughfares to emphasize
the "unplanned" appearance of a rustic early California settlement. The
buidlings within Old Town should be prominent, with many architectural
elements of the late 1800s/early 1900s. The proposed landscaping does
meet the requirements of the Specific Plan in that the landscaping: 1)
continues an Old West theme; 2) softens the development; and 3) unifies
the area as a pleasant environment for residents and visitors.
D. How does the patio and street' furniture, fixtures, walls and fences integrate
with of the architecture and landscaping?
Decks, balconies, fixtures and railings of the proposed Chaparral Expansion
will match those of the existing Chaparral Center, which ties together many
elements of the Old Town Western Style architecture,
7. Development Code Consistency:
A. How does the plan achieye the performance standards specified in Code
Section 17.08.070?
.
Circulation:
Section 17.08.070 does not apply. The project complies with the circulation
guidelines of the Old Town Specific Plan by placing parking at the rear of the
building, hidden from public view from Front and Main Streets.
Architectural Desiqn:
Section 17.08.070 does not apply. The project complies with the
architectural style guidelines of the Old Town Specific Plan in that the
building will be the Old Town Western Style, incorporating western style
elements recommended by the Specific Plan such as vertical and horizontal
wood siding, narrow wood porches, significant wall articulation devices
(porches, overhangs), false roof parapets, simple color scheme (matching
the existing Chaparral Center), traditional commercial storfron window,
balconies with balustrade, exterior stairway (wood), and knee bracing at
posts and balconies.

Site Plannina and Desian:
Section 17.08,070 does not apply. With the exception of the proposed
building height of 44' 10' and three stories, the project complies with the site
planning guidelines of the Old Town Specific Plan in that the buildings are
side by side, forming a fairly continuous street wall, and are not set back
from the boardwalk. The pedestrian quality of this relationship is enhanced
by the lack of emphasis on parking lots and parked cars. As per the intent of
the site planning guidelines, parking is provided at the rear of the site to
intesify the pedestrian activity which charaterizes this area. The Specific
Plan does have provisions to allow for City Council approval of increased
building height.
Compatibility:
Section 17.08.070 does not apply. The project complies with the land use
regulations of the Old Town Specific Plan in that in the Tourist Retail Core
(TRC) land use district, retail development is permitted. Furthermore, the
proposed Chaparral Expansion is essentially an expansion of the existing
Chaparral Center building, which contains uses similar to those anticipated
for the proposed project.
B. Does the application and submitted plans on file conform with all of the
applicable minimum development standards?
D Yes, with conditions
~ No
The Old Town Specific Plan limits building height to 28' and two stories
and the proposed building is 44' 10" and three stories. However, the
Specific Plan does have provisions to allow for City Council approval of
increased building height.

PC RESOLUTION NO. 2004--
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF TEMECULA APPROVING PLANNING
APPLICATION NO. PA03-0471 , A DEVELOPMENT
PLAN TO CONSTRUCT A 12,551 SQUARE FOOT
COMMERCIAL BUILDING ON 0.40 ACRES LOCATED
AT 28461 OLD TOWN FRONT STREET, GENERALLY
LOCATED ON THE WEST SIDE OF OLD TOWN FRONT
STREET, APPROXIMATELY 150 NORTH OF 6th
STREET, KNOWN AS ASSESSOR PARCEL NO. 922-
026-022.
WHEREAS, Matthew Fagan filed Planning Application No. PA03-0471
(Development Plan Application), in a manner in accordance with the City of Temecula
General Plan and Development Code;
WHEREAS, the Application was processed including, but not limited to a public
notice, in the time and manner prescribed by State and local law;
.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission, at a regular meeting, considered the
Application on February 4, 2004, at a duly noticed public hearing as prescribed by law,
at which time the City staff and interested persons had an opportunity to and did testify
either in support or in opposition to this matter;
WHEREAS, at the conclusion of the Commission hearing and after due
consideration of the testimony, the Commission approved the Application subject to and
based upon the findings set forth hereunder;
WHEREAS, all legal preconditions to the adoption of this Resolution have
occurred.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
TEMECULA DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. That the above recitations are true and correct and are hereby
incorporated by reference.
Section 2. Findinqs The Planning Commission, in approving the Application,
hereby makes the following findings as required by Sections Section 17.05.010F of the
Temecula Municipal Code:
.
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 proposal is consistent with the General Plan land use policies for Community
Commercial (CC) development in the City of Temecula General Plan, as well as
the development standards for the Tourist Retail Core (TRC) land use district of
the Old Town Specific Plan with the exception of the proposed building height, for
which Section 1II.F.8 of the Specific Plan allows. for City Council approval of
increased building heights. The proposed increase to the building height
limitations and number of stories are justified because the proposed building
provides additional retail and office space in Old Town and provides architectural
R:ID 1'\2003\03-0471 Chap.mil Center ExpansinnIPC RESOLUTION AND COA.doc

features that are appropriate to the site and that match the existing Chaparral
Center including generous porch and balcony areas and varying rooflines that
visually tie the proposed building to the existing three-story and 47 foot tall
Chaparral center, resulting in a desirable addition to Old Town Front Street.
.
A commercial building and uses are typical land uses found in the Community
Commercial land use designation within the General Plan. The Land Use
Element of the General Plan requires that proposed buildings be compatible with
existing buildings. The proposed commercial use is compatible with the
surrounding commercial buildings currently located adjacent to the proposed site.
B. The overall development of the land is designed for the protection of the
public health, safety, and general welfare.
The architecture proposed for the building meets the architectural requirements
as stated in the Site Development Standards of the Old Town Specific Plan. The
proposed building architecture and building materials have been found to be
compatible with the adjacent buildings. The varying building shapes and offsets
provided serve to break up the massing of the building. The proposed
architecture complements and enhances the visual character along Old Town
Front Street and will be a welcome addition to the existing buildings.
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 public health, safety and welfare.
Section 3. Environmental Compliance. The project will have no significant
environmental impacts and has been found to be categorically exempt pursuant to
Section 15332 (In-Fill Development Project) of the California Environmental Quality Act
Guidelines.
.

conditionally approves the Application, a request to construct, operate and establish a
12,551 square foot three-story commercial building with conditions of approval as set
forth on Exhibit A, attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference together
with any and all necessary conditions that may be deemed necessary.

Re:
The District does not usually review land divisionslland use cases or provide State Division of Real Estate
letters/flood hazard reports for projects that are located within incorporated Cities, Exceptions are made for
cases with items of specific interest to the District including District Master Drainage Plan facilities, other
regional flood control and drainage facilities which could be considered a logical component or extension of a
master plan system, and District Area Drainage Plan fees (development mitigation fees). The District has not
reviewed the proposed project in detail and the following comments do not in any way constitute or imply
District approval or endorsement of the proposed project with respect to flood hazard, public health and safety
or any other such issues.
PA03-047l is aproposal to construct a 12,309 square fèet bu¡¡di~g on a O.I-ilCre site located at 28461 Old
Town Front Street in the citY of Temecula.
The entire site is located within the Zone AE boundary as delineated on Panel No. 0607420010B of the Flood
Insurance Rate Maps issued in conjunction with the National Flood Insurance Program, administered by the'
Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
The US Army Corps of Engineers completed a Murrieta Creek Flood Control Feasibility Study on September
2000. Based on information obtained from the feasibility study, the water sUrface elevation for the ultimate
flow rate of37,800c¡jbic feet per second islOO&r feet (National Geodetic Vertical Datum 1929). New
buildings should be floodproofed by elevating the finished floor a minimum of 12 inches above the water
surface elevation for the ultimate flow rate of 37,800 cfs as determined in the Murrieta Creek Flood Control
Feasibility Study.
Due to the extreme hazard posed by Murrieta Creek, the City should consider not allowing the development to
proceed adjacent to the Creek until the ultimate improvements can be constructed, Property within the
floodplain should be conditioned to construct the required improvements or participate in a financing
mechanism such as an assessment district to ensure necessary improvements are constructed. If the City
chooses to allow development to proceed, we recommend that the City should condition the applicant to
provide all studies, calculations, plans and other pertinent information as needed to meet FEMA requirements.

The project is located within the limits of the District's Murrieta Creek!remecula Valley Area Drainage Plan
for which drainage fees have been adopted; applicable fees should be paid for by cashier's check or money
order written to Flood Control District prior to the issuance of building or grading pennits. Fees to be paid
should be at the rate in effect at the time of issuance of the actual pennit.
The following infonnation of a general nature is provided herewith for your use:
This project may need to obtain an applicable National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
pennit coverage trom the State Water Resources Control Board or the California Regional Water Quality
Control Board (RWQCB) - San Diego Region. Clearance for grading, recordation, or other fmal approval
should not be given until the City has detennined that the project has been granted a pennit or is shown to
be exempt.
.
If the mapped flood plain is impacted by the project, the City should require the applicant to obtain a
Section 1601/1603 Agreement trom the California Department ofFish and Game and a Clean Water Act
Section 404 Pennit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, or written correspondence trom these
agencies indicating the project is exempt trom these requirements. A Clean Water Act Section 401 Water
Quality Certification may be required trom the RWQCB - San Diego Region prior to issuance of the
Corps 404 pennit.
