AGENDA REPORT
TO: City Council/Planning Commission
FROM: Debbie Ubnoske, Director of Planning
DATE: August 10,2004
SUBJECT: Joint City Council/Planning Commission Workshop on the Draft General Plan
PREPARED BY: David Hogan, Principal Planner
RECOMMENDATION: Provide Direction to Staff and the Consultant on the Community
Advisory Committee's Recommended Draft General Plan
BACKGROUND: The City has hired Cotton/Bridges Associates to assist in updating the
General Plan. Since this process began, the Council has appointed the Community Advisory
Committee (CAG) to work with the staff and the consultant. The CAC has provided their final
comments on the draft of the updated General Plan. In previous joint meetings, the City Council
and Planning Commission have reviewed and provided direction on the following important
foundations to the Updated General Plan.
. Vision Statement
. Issues and Concerns
. Draft Goals and Policies
. Land Use Alternatives
. Rural Preservation Areas (Eastern, Southern, and Nicolas Valley)
. Mixed Use Areas
The purpose of this meeting is to solicit comments and feedback from both the City Council and.
Planning Commission on the direction of the Updated General Plan. This will be facilitated by
the General Plan Consultant who will present the Community Advisory Committee's
recommended changes to the General Plan. A copy of the draft of the Updated General Plan
has already been provided to you under separate cover. The Updated General Plan does not
include the updated Housing Element that was approved in October 2002. The Housing
Element will be incorporated into the Final Plan after it is adopted. Development of the next
update of the Housing Element is expected to begin in late 2005.

, ,
INTRODUCTION: For all the Elements of the General Plan, the essential and overall policy
direction is proposed to remain the same. In some areas where changes are proposed they fit
within the framework of the existing General Plan. Most of changes represent a shift in format
and minor text clean-up items. The most common clean-up items include: items reflecting
changed circumstances, to more carefully delineate between goal and policy statements and
implementation measures, to try to combine similar policy statements into a single policy for
greater clarity, and to update the implementation program for each element. While most of the
changes are being made to the Land Use and Circulation Elements, there are a number of other
. changes being made to many of the General Plan Elements.
Land Use Element
The primary changes in the Land Use Element are the inclusion of a discussion for Mixed Use
and Rural Preservation Areas. The Mixed Use provisions are expected to provide additional
opportunities to revitalize some old areas of the City and to help meet the City's Housing
Element goals. Goal 2, Encouraging Mixed Use, provides the framework for future mixed use
projects. The Rural Preservation discussion is intended to identify areas that need to stay rural
to protect the character and quality of life in the area. Goal 3, Preserving Rural Areas,
discusses how these areas should be protected. The direction provided by the remaining Goals
and Policies remains the same. Much of the southern and eastern Planning Area is included
within Rural Preservation Areas. The locations of the Rural Preservation and Mixed Use areas
are shown on Attachment NO.1.
Land Use Desionations
In the General Plan Update, several new Land Use Designations are proposed to respond to
changes within the City and the Planning Area. The new Land Use Designations are as follows:
. The Rural Residential Designation would establish a 5 acre minimum lot size. This new
designation is intended primarily to help maintain lower density development in more rural
areas in and around the City. Much of the eastern Rural Preservation Area is proposed to
receive this designation.
. The Vineyards/Agriculture Designation is intended to identify areas used for agriculture in
the Planning Area. The General Plan currently has no way of designating areas for long
term agricultural use. This new designation will be applied to large areas of the Eastern
and Southern Rural Preservation Area.
. The new Tribal Trust Lands Designation is proposed for properties in the Planning Area
that have been designated as lands held in trust for the Pechanga Band by the Federal
Government. These areas have important economic and environmental impacts on the
City. By identifying them as Tribal Trust Lands, it is our goal to recognize tribal
sovereignty while indicating the City's interest in cooperating with the Pechanga Band in
these areas. At this time, all the tribally owned property in the southern portion of the City
and Planning Area are proposed to receive this designation.
. A Commercial Recreation Overlay for golf courses, resorts, as well as RV resorts and
campground facilities. This would be used as an overlay on areas designated Open
Space to indicate that non-open space accessory commercial uses are envisioned to
occur in these areas. A good example of this is Temecula Creek Inn; most of the site is
used for open space purposes. However there is also a small area of visitor serving resort
and commercial uses that form an integral part of the facility. This change is being
suggested in recognition that the current Open Space Designation does not adequately
address resort types of open space uses.
R:\General Plan\Coll'l> Plan Update\Final Joint CC PC MeeUng.doc
2
The final change is the proposal to rename the Business Park Land Use Designation to
Industrial Park to eliminate the confusion with the Business Park Zone. No changes are being
proposed to the types of development that would be allowed in these areas with this name
change.
Land Use MaD
The original General Plan Land Use Map was hand drawn at a fairly large scale. In the process
of preparing the Updated Plan, Staff has gone back over the original Land Use Map and worked
to match General Plan designations to both the existing development pattern that conformed to
the General Plan and to the existing property lines. Many of the minor adjustments to the map
reflect these types of insignificant changes being made to match the Land Use Plan to the GIS
base map. However, there are also a number of other Land Use Map changes that are either
more substantial clean up items or are specific change requests to the Land Use Map that were
made by the property owners. The various changes are identified in Attachment NO.2.
The staff suggested changes to the Land Use Map are as follows:
. Chaparral High School, from Business Park to Public Institutional.
. Southeast corner of SR-79S and Butterfield Stage Road, from Neighborhood
Commercial to Community Commercial.
. Great Oak High School, from Medium Density Residential to Public Institutional.
. The Westside Specific Plan and other areas along the western City Limits, numerous
minor adjustments to reflect the open space conditions, as well as tribal and other
ownership conditions. (These changes are not shown on Attachment No.2)
Approximately 15 land use requests have been submitted by various property owners through
this process. Some of the changes were supported by the CAC, while others were not. For five
of these requests, it is recommended that consideration be deferred until other issues are
resolved. Three requests (Nos. 2, 4 and 5) are located in or adjacent to the Nicolas Valley area.
Because of the uncertainty with the issues of (1) no building permits off of dirt roads and (2) the
uncertain timing for the Roripaugh Ranch project, Staff is recommending that the changes in
these areas not be seriously considered until these other intervening issues are resolved. In
addition, there were two requests (Nos. 8 and 9) adjacent to the proposed Temecula Education
Project. It is also recommended that consideration of these requests be deferred until the exact
nature of the Education Project is known and construction has been initiated. A summary of all
the land use requests considered by the CAC is contained in Attachment NO.3.
The property owner requested changes that were supported by the Community Advisory
Committee and are included in the Updated General Plan are as follows:
Request 1.
Five acres on the northside of the Santa Gertrudis channel adjacent to Margarita
Road. The CAC supported a change from Public Institutional to Professional
Office.
Nine acres on the southeast corner of Margarita Road and Solana Way. The
CAe supported a change from Medium Density Residential to a combination of
Professional Office and Open Space.
Request 3.
R:\General PlanlComp Plan Updale\Final Joint CC PC Meeting.doc
3
Request 7. Forty-five acres on the northside of Loma Linda Road, east of Temecula Lane.
The CAC supported a change from .Professional Office to a combination of Low
Medium Residential and Medium Density Residential.
Request 10. Eighteen acres west of Butterfield Stage Road between Chenin Clinet and Ahern
Place. The CAC supported a change from Low Density Residential to Low
Medium Density Residential.
Request 12. Twenty a cres at the northeast corner 0 f Winchester and Nicolas Roads. T he
CAC supported a change from Neighborhood Commercial to Community
Commercial.
The property owner requested changes that were not supported by the Community Advisory
Committee and are not included in the Updated General Plan are as follows:
Request 6. Seven acres immediately south of the TemecuJa Creek Village. The CAC did not
support the requested change from Open Space to a more developable
designation.
Request 11. Three acres at the northwest corner of Margarita and Dartolo Roads. The CAC
did not support the requested change from Professional Office to Community
Commercial.
Request 13. Three hundred four acres at Temecula Creek Inn. The CAC did not support the
requested change for parts of the site from Open Space to Low Medium Density
Residential as well as a request to specify the preparation of a Specific Plan on
the property.
Request 14. Two acres at the northeast corner of SR-79 South and Jedediah Smith Road.
The CAC did not support the requested change from Very Low Density
Residential to Professional Office.
'j
A major change to the Land Use Map in the French Valley area has also been made. Since the
initial adoption of the City General Plan, the County made many land use changes without
notifying the City. As a result, the City General Plan bore little resemblance to the land use
pattern being developed in this area. In modifying the Land Use Map in the French Valley, a
great deal of effort was spent trying to work within the context of the granted entitlements trying
to ensure the creation of a desirable and livable urban area. Staff is still working on ways to
improve the livability of this area given the current land uses.
The Eastern and Southern Rural Preservation Areas in the expanded planning area will be
designated mostly as Vineyard/Agriculture and Rural Residential, with some limited Very Low
Density Residential areas where there is a number of existing 2Y:. acre lots.
Circulation Element
The primary changes to the policy direction in the Circulation Element are provisions to allow for
additional street dedication (beyond the standardized rights-of-way) around higher volume key
intersections and the Community Advisory Committee's recommendation to consider opening
closed connecting streets to improve citywide circulation. The direction provided by the
remaining Goals and Policies remains the same.
Roadwav Cross-Sections
R:\General Plan\CCllll' Plan Updale\Final Joint CC PC Meeting.doc
4
In an effort to fine tune the road network iJ1 some of less urban portions of the City, two new
roadway cross sections are being proposed. Both of the new cross sections are based upon
the standard 88 foot Secondary Arterial.
The first is the Modified Secondary Arterial, initially assigned to De Portola and Ynez Roads
through Los Ranchitos, would have two divided lanes in each direction with no curb, gutter or
sidewalk to maintain the rural character of the area.
The second is the Limited Secondary Arterial would have one lane in each direction, with a left
turn lane and a separated trail. This cross section would be used in areas where lower traffic
volumes are expected and where the separation of equestrian and pedestrian traffic is
important. This is proposed for portions of Nicolas Road, Santiago Road, and North General
Kearny. To better match the County Circulation Plan, a Rural Highway standard is also being
proposed. Rural Highways generally have 0 ne lane in each direction with I eft turn pockets,
though in some areas two lanes may be needed.
Other changes include:
o Combining the previous Arterial and Major Arterial Roadway categories into a single
roadway designation because there was very little difference between the two.
o The addition of a Rural Highway cross section not only protects future rights-of-way, but
also helps maintain the rural character of the area. The Rural Highway roadway
anticipates that, in most cases, the full roadway cross section will not be constructed until
there are substantial changes in the area. The Rural Highway designation is primarily used
in the rural areas around the City.
Circulation MaD
Overall the Circulation Plan is not substantially changing within the City. However, in the
Planning Area, there are a number of changes to try to match the County Circulation Plan or
address the circulation problems that are expected to remain in French Valley. The proposed
Updated Circulation Plan contains a number of new roadways as well as changes to the size
designations. The new major roadways are as follows:
. Loma Linda/Avenida de Missiones between Pechanga Parkway and SR-79S.
. North General Kearny from Deer Meadow .Road (near Nicolas Road) to near the
northern segment of Calle Pina Colada.
. Eastern Bypass consisting of Anza Road, Deer Hollow Way, and a southern connection
to Interstate 15 via a new interchange. T his is consistent with the proposed County
Circulation Pian.
. Sky Canyon Road/Briggs Road parallel route along Winchester Road past the future
bottleneck area by French Valley Airport.
The Circulation Plan also incorporates the final roadway designs within the approved specific
plan. I n addition, the following roadways a re proposed to bee xpanded ins ize tom eet the
projected needs.
. Winchester Road from Jefferson Road to Hunter Road - Urban Arterial 6-lane to Urban
Arterial 8-lane.
R:\GeneraJ P1an\Comp Plan Updale\Fina! Joint CC PC Meeting,doc
5
. Rancho California Road from Old Town Front Street to Ynez Road - Urban Arterial 6-
lane to Urban Arterial 8-lane.
. Rancho California Road from Ynez Road to Margarita Road - Arterial (4-lane) to Urban
Arterial 6-lane.
. Ynez Road from Rancho California Road to Rancho Vista Road - Arterial (4-lane) to
Urban Arterial 6-lane.
. Jefferson Avenue from Winchester Road to the City Limits - Arterial (4-lane) to Urban
Arterial 6-lane.
. Western Bypass Road - Secondary Arterial to a Major Arterial. Both these roadways
have four lane configurations.
Housing Element
The Housing Element is not being updated as part of this program. The current s(;:hedule has
the next update of the Housing Elementbeginning in late 2005 or 2006.
Open Space and Conservation Element
There are no major policy changes proposed for the Open Space and Conservation Element.
Growth Management/Public Facilities Element
The only policy change is the addition of a statement discouraging street closures that may limit
or delay access to emergency services. There are no other policy changes in the Grow1h
Management/Public Facilities Element.
Public Safety Element
There are no major policy ch,~lnges proposed for the Public Safety Element.
Noise Element
There are no major policy changes proposed for the Noise Element.
Air Quality Element
There are no major policy changes proposed for the Air Quality Element.
Community Design Element
There are no major policy changes proposed for the Community Design Element. However,
there is some additional discussion on the Mixed Use Design Concept and on public spaces
and public art.
Economic Development Element
There are no major policy changes proposed for the Economic Development Element.

5.4 Ac
From Industrial Park (IP) and Public Institutional (PI) to Professional Office
(PO)
DISCUSSION: The property consists of a long thin remnant piece left over from the
channelization of Santa Gertrudis Creek. At the northeastern end, there is
a developable Industrial Park designated site adjacent to Rustic Glen
Drive. At the southwestern end there is a much smaller Public institutional
zoned site that could be developed adjacent to Margarita Road. In
between these two sites is narrow strip of land approximately 35 feet wide
that connects these sites.

SIZE: 72.3 Ac
REQUEST: From Very Low Density Residential (VL) to Low Medium Density
Residential (LM) and Open Space (OS)
DISCUSSION: The property consists of 4 large parcels located between the northeast
edge of the Meadowview area between the tract' homes along Nicolas
Road and the Nicolas Valley area. The applicant has indicated a desire to
concentrate future development adjacent to Nicolas Road consistent with
the tract homes along Via Lobo and leave most of.the site as permanent
open space. The development potential of the site is limited by existing
utility easements, the normally dry wash that bisects the property, and its
proximity to the Meadowview and Nicolas Valley areas. At the current
General Plan Designation, up to 29 units could be permitted. The
applicant's current proposal is to have 73 lots.
CAC RECOMMENDATION: There was a lot of discussion on this item with a clear
concensus. When the issue of Nicolas Valley was raised, the CAC deferred their
recommendation pending a future meeting with the property owners in the Nicolas
Valley area. At a subsequent meeting, a majority of the CAC felt that keeping the
property Very Low Density was appropriate. No changes were made to Land Use
Plan.

REQUEST INFORMATION'
10.
REQUESTOR: May Group
LOCATION: West of Butterfield Stage Road between Chenin Clinet and Ahern Place
APN(s): 935-390-007. and 009
SIZE: 18.3 Ac
REQUEST: From Very Low Density Residential (VL) to Low-Medium Density
Residential (LM)
DISCUSSION: The site is a long thin piece immediately adjacent to Butterfield Stage
Road within the Margarita Village Specific Plan. The approved Specific
Plan for this area describes the density as one unit per acre. The General
Plan identifies 2 Y, acre lots. Realistically, the change would be from Low
Density to Low Medium Density. The eventual implementation of this
request will also require a Specific Plan Amendment.
CAC RECOMMENDATION: Supported a change to Low Medium Density Residential.
One member wanted the density to stay at one-unit per acre. This has been shown
on the draft Land Use Plan.

REQUESTOR: Westfall Construction
LOCATION: Northwest corner of Margarita and Dartolo Roads
APN(s): 950-100-003 and 016
SIZE: 2.8 Ac
REQUEST: From Professional Office (PO) to Community Commercial (CC)
DISCUSSION: The site is located west of the proposed hospital site and east of the
Albertons/Home Depot Shopping Center along the north side of Dartolo
Road.
CAC RECOMMENDATION: The CAC felt that retaining PO made the most sense in
this location.
REQUESTOR: Pacific Development Partners
LOCATION: Northeast corner of Winchester and Nicolas Roads
APN(s): 920-100-001 and 013
SIZE: 20.2 Ac
REQUEST: From Neighborhood Commercial (NC) to Community Commercial (CC)
DISCUSSION: The site part of the Roripaugh Estates Specific Plan. Under the original
Specific Plan, the land use regulations referenced the C-1/CP (General
12. Commercial) in County Ordinance 348. The text description in the SP
described it as Neighborhood Commercial and it was designated as
Neighborhood Commercial in the City General Plan. However, typical
Neighborhood Commercial sites were envisioned to be smaller than 10
acres while the Neighborhood Commercial zoning standards are more
appropriate for shopping centers under 5 acres in size.
CAC RECOMMENDATION: The CAC supported this change. This has been shown
on the draft Land Use Plan.

proposal to include this property into the previously approved Planned
Development Overlay.
