BUILDING LOCATED AT 27901 JEFFERSON AVENUE,
AND A MINOR EXCEPTION FOR A 13 PERCENT
PARKING REQUIREMENT REDUCTION FROM 70
SPACES TO 61 SPACES (APN 921-050-003)
Section 1. Procedural FindinQs. The Planning Commission of the City of
Temecula does hereby find, determine and declare that:
A. On October 11, 2006, Michael Cargile filed Planning Application No.
PA06-0306, (Major Modification), and on March 7, 2007, Michael Cargile filed Planning
Application No. PA07-0073, (Minor Exception), in a manner in accord with the City of
Temecula General Plan and Development Code.
B. The Application was processed including, but not limited to a public notice,
in the time and manner prescribed by State and local law.
C. The Planning Commission, at a regular meeting, considered the
Application and environmental review on August 1, 2007, 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.
D. At the conclusion of the Commission hearing and after due consideration
of the testimony, the Commission approved Planning Application Nos. PA06-0306 and
PA07-0073 subject to and based upon the findings set forth hereunder.
E. All legal preconditions to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.
Section 2. Further FindinQs. The Planning Commission, in approving the
Application hereby finds, determines and declares that:
Maior Modification (Development Code Section 17.05.010.F)
A. The proposed ose is in conformance with the General Plan for Temecula
and with all applicable requirements of State law and other ordinances of the City;
The project is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code
because the project has been designed in a manner that it is consistent with the
applicable policies and standards for community commercial development. The
proposed commercial use is permitted in the land use designation standards
contained in the General Plan and Development Code. The site is properly
planned and zoned, and as conditioned, is physically suitable for the type of
G:\Planning\2006\PA06-0306 27901 Jefferson Ave Major MOD\Planning\PC Reso.doc

. 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 project, including site design, building height, setbacks,
parking, circulation, and other associated site improvements, is consistent with,
and intended to protect the health and safety of those working in and around the
site. The project is 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.
Minor Exception (Development Code Section 17.03.060.D)
A. There are practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships created by strict
application of the code due to the physical characteristics of the site;
There are practical difficulties related to existing conditions on the site that make
it difficult to meet the parking standards for a commercial use without the Minor
Exception. The 1.54 acre site is currently developed with a 25,000 square foot
commercial building. The building exceeds the 30 percent target floor area ratio
(FAR) by 7 percent which creates an imbalance between the amount of building
area on site and the amount of surface area remaining on which to provide
. parking. Thus, in order to provide parking for the existing 25,000 square foot
commercial building a 13 percent parking requirement reduction is needed to
meet the Development Code standards. Without the granting of the Minor
Exception the site would not meet the current standards, which poses a practical
difficulty and unnecessary hardship.
B. The Minor Exception does not grant special privileges which are not
otherwise available to surrounding properties and will not be detrimental to the public
welfare or the property of other persons located in the vicinity;
The Minor Exception does not grant special privileges which are not otherwise
available to surrounding properties because the exception is consistent with
Development Code, which allows for up to a 15 percent deviation from the
parking requirements. Therefore, the request for the Minor Exception for the 13
percent parking requirement reduction from 70 spaces to 61 spaces is allowed,
and special privileges have not been granted which are not otherwise available
by meeting the findings within the Development Code. The granting of this
exception will not be detrimental to the public welfare or property of other
persons within the vicinity since the site will still accommodate 61 parking spaces
to support the commercial use.

. '. C. The Minqr 'Ex<:eption plact:ls suitable cenditio'ns on the property to protect
~~Rding properties and does not permit uses which are not otherwise allowed in the
,
The Minor Exception to reduce the minimum parking space requirement places
suitable conditions on the property which protect surrounding properties. The
proposed project is to renovate the exterior of an existing commercial building by
improving the far;ade, landscaping, and parking. The land use is not changing
and the commercial use is permitted in the Community Commercial zone. The
Minor Exception will allow for a 13 percent reduction of the minimum parking
requirements, which will not allow for uses which are not otherwise allowed in the
zone.
Section 3. Environmental Compliance. In accordance with the California
Environmental Quality Act, the proposed Project has been deemed to be categorically
exempt from further environmental review and the Planning Commission hereby makes
the following findings and determinations in connection with the approval of PA06-0306
and PA07-0073:
Section 15301. Class 1. ExistinQ Facilities
A. The project involves negligible or no expansion of an existing use;
The project consists of the exterior alteration of an existing commercial building,
involving negligible structural renovations. The building is not being expanded
and the remodel will not result in the expansion of the use beyond that which
exists currently.
Section 4. Conditions. The Planning Commission of the City of Temecula
approves Planning Application NOs. PA06-0306 and PA07-0073, a Major Modification to
renovate the exterior of an existing commercial building, and a Minor Exception to allow
for a 13 percent parking requirement reduction, subject to the Conditions of Approval
set forth on Exhibit A, attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference.
