In response to Board Member Blair's query, Director of Planning Ubnoske noted that staff is currently working on a multi-family project for Old Town. I Senior Planner Fisk explained "Poem Based Code" tothe Old Town Local Review Board. Director of Planning Ubnoske noted that a training session with respect to "Form Based Code" could be implemented prior to finalizing the Old Town Specific Plan (OTSP). Board Member Moore suggested that in order to preserve historic buildings, perhaps the City could purchase property that could house historic buildings in a park setting, providing retail and commercial opportunities for the public. Principal Planner Richardson advised that an underground parking structure in Old Town would not be viable for the City to construct. R:\Old Town\Minutes\2008\021108.doc 2 Principal Planner Richardson noted that although the approved Civic Center will equip three functioning levels, it will give an appearance of a taller building.

PA07-0302 and PA07-0303 Prepared by: Betsy Lowrey, Junior Planner APPLICATION INFORMATION: APPLICANT: Otto and Nancy Baron 28681 Pujol Street Temecula, CA 92590 PROPOSAL: Conditional Use Permit and Certificate of Historic Appropriateness Applications to allow the operation of a for-profit museum with associated museum gift shop within the historic Arviso House located on .42 acres at 28673 Pujol Street Street within the Old Town Specific Plan area (Arviso House was recently relocated from 41915 Fourth Street). The project includes the existing 1,022 square foot historic Arviso House; and proposes to add a 1,022 square foot basement, a screened porch, and a 205 square foot hospitality cabin. LOCATION: Generally located on the west side of Pujol Street, approximately 200 feet south of Main Street, at 28673 Pujol Street EXISTING ZONING: Old Town Specific Plan: Tourist Retail Core (MDR) SURROUNDING ZONING: North Medium Density Residential (MDR) South: Medium Density Residential (MDR) East: High Density Residential (HDR) West: Specific Plan 8; Industrial Park (IP) GENERALPLAN DESIGNATION: Medium Residential (M) EXISTING LAND USE: The Historic Arviso House has been relocated to the proposed site from 41915 Fourth Street (currently on temporary riser blocks). The property was otherwise vacant except for a 70+ year old shed previously known to be a blacksmith shop SURROUNDING LAND USES: North: Residential (single family house) South: Residential (Mr. and Mrs. Baron's personal residence) East: Apartment complex West: Vacant/hillside GAPlanning\2007\PA07-0302 Temecula Heritage Ranch CUP\Ptaming\OTLRB Staff Report.doc 1. BACKGROUND/PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Historic Arviso House was originally constructed in 1920 by Ventura Arviso as a wood framed residence for his family who were members of the Pechanga Indian Band. Ventura Arviso worked for the Vail Cattle Ranch and together with his wife raised at least four children at this house. The residence stayed within the family until it was purchased in 1996 by the current owner/applicant, Otto and Nancy Baron. Since then, the Barons have remodeled the structure to bring the building in compliance with contemporary building codes in order to allow public access for a retail shop. The applicant has utilized the Arviso House as an antique boutique and period mercantile shop called "Kreigers General Mercantile" since approximately 1999 on the northwest corner of Mercedes and Fourth Street. On May 7, 2007, the Arviso House was moved and relocated to its current location at 28673 Pujol Street, where it remains on temporary riser blocks until approval of this project. The applicants propose a western themed for-profit museum, "Temecula's Heritage Ranch," at this location. On October 30, 2007, the applicant submitted an application for a Conditional Use Permit and Certificate of Historic Appropriateness for "Temecula's Heritage Ranch," a for-profit museum. Pursuant to Section III.0 (Land Use Regulations) of the Old Town Specific Plan, a for-profit museum is allowable upon approval of a Conditional Use Permit. In addition, a Certificate of Historic Appropriateness application is required pursuant to Section V (Finding of Historic Appropriateness) of the Old Town Specific Plan for exterior renovations to a historic structure. Proposed renovations to the Arviso House include a new color palette, the addition of a screened porch, a basement and a hospitality cabin. On November 29, 2007, a Department Review Committee meeting was held at City Hall with the applicant; and a comment letter was sent outlining staffs requested revisions to the site plan. Additionally, staff and the applicant have had several over-the-counter meetings and telephone conferences to move the project forward through the entitlement process. On February 1, 2008, the applicant resubmitted all plans and staff has determined that the project is ready to be heard before the Old Town Local Review Board. ANALYSIS " Site Plan A site plan has been submitted with the Conditional Use Permit application to plot the proposed location of the Arviso House, porch, hospitality cabin, parking, driveway, landscaping and accessibility pathways. The site plan meets the minimum requirements of the development standards for Medium Density Residential (MDR)within the Old Town Specific Plan. Its building lot coverage of 13 percent is well below the maximum permitted lot coverage of 35 percent. In addition, the landscaping/open space coverage of 78 percent exceeds the minimum 25,percent for MDR zoning. All uses within MDR zoning requires on-site parking consistent with the Temecula Municipal Code and the project meets the required four spaces based upon 1,227 square feet of museum display. An existing, legally nonconforming, shed approximately 70 years old will remain onsite (not for public use). The applicants have agreed, and the project will be conditioned, to ensure the deteriorating condition of the shed is restored to maintain an orderly appearance. GAPlanaing\2007\PA07-0302 Temecula Heritage Ranch CUP\Planning\OTLRB Staff ReportAx 2 Architecture The existing Arviso House architecture will remain in tact; however, the applicant is proposing an attached screened porch along the southern side towards the rear of the structure. The screened porch will incorporate elements of the main structure, including a matching concrete tile roof (shake style) and complimentary board and baton hardi-plank wood siding along the base. Staff has determined that a porch addition is historically appropriate since the Arviso House previously had a screened porch that was dismantled in the 1990s due to unsafe conditions. A proposal for a 205 square foot"hospitality cabin" (intended for additional museum display) is also planned along the southern side of the Arviso House, directly in front of the proposed screened porch essentially blocking the porch from public view. The hospitality cabin will incorporate design elements of the main structure consistent with western frontier style architecture including a covered front porch with wood braced columns, complementary board and baton wood siding (using hardi-plank for durability) and the same shake-like roofing materials as used on the Arviso House and proposed screened porch. A covered parking canopy with matching roof tiles and wooden columns will extend along the south side of the Hospitality Cabin primarily to display an antique car owned by the applicant. The Old Town Specific Plan, Section IV, indicates that accessory buildings located in residential districts shall incorporate architectural treatments from the main building including siding, surface materials, trim, paint colors and roof materials. However, the applicant is proposing two different color schemes from the Sherwin Williams Preservation Palette to distinguish between the Hospitality Cabin and the Historic Arviso House. Staff recommends that the applicant select either one of the two color schemes to meet the Old Town Specific Plan and to ensure consistency and continuity of the proposed Heritage Ranch. Landscaping All pavement proposed for the driveway, parking area and pedestrian pathways will be decorative beige colored concrete. The existing white split rail fencing will line the entire front of the property connecting with side fencing; and extend along the curve of the driveway providing additional screening of the parking area. The site plan calls out landscaping along the front perimeter of the property and the project be conditioned to provide additionally enhanced drought-resistant landscaping consistent with the landscape guidelines of the Old Town Specific Plan to ensure an appealing front yard. Signage Existing The building signage on the Arviso House was previously reviewed and approved by the Old Town Local Review Board on May 9, 2005 allowing "Dry Goods" and "Variety Store" as depicted on the current plans. The "Kreigers General Mercantile" sign is existing. No additional building signage is being proposed. Proposed The applicant is proposing a freestanding sign and a western ranch gateway entrance. Pursuant to Old Town Specific Plan Section III.G.1, signage proposed within the Medium Density Residential Districts shall comply with Development Code Section 17.28.110 (Signs for Institutional and other Permitted Uses in Residential Districts). One freestanding business sign is permissible, no greater than 4 feet tall. Therefore, the proposed projecting monument sign is GAPlanning\2007\PA07-0302 Temecula Heritage Pa h CUP\Planning\OTLRB Staff Repon.doc 3 allowable at a maximum four feet in height; and will be conditioned to be fabricated from sandblasted or carved wood. Fonts and colors will be reviewed under a separate permit consistent with Old Town sign design standards. Staff has determined that the proposed gateway entrance may be allowable based on an interpretation of the Old Town Specific Plan Parking Lot Guidelines (page IV-36) indicating that entry driveways to parking lots in Old Town should be designed to enhance the Old Town historic environment. However, staff is concerned that the language "Heritage Ranch" along the top of the gateway transforms the entry into a second monument sign and is not permissible. Staff recommends approval of the gateway entrance without this language provided that "knee braces" are added and it is painted to match the existing white split rail fence. RECOMMENDATION For consistency with the Old Town Specific Plan and City of Temecula Development Code, staff recommends that the proposed Conditional Use Permit and Certificate of Historic appropriateness be approved based upon staffs recommended revisions: 1. One color scheme from the Sherwin Williams Preservation Palette is utilized to provide continuity between the structures. 2. The proposed gateway entry is painted to match the existing white split rail fence, "knee braces" are added, and the language "Heritage Ranch" is eliminated. Staff requests that the Old Town Local Review Board provide comments, and a recommendation for approval, regarding the Conditional Use Permit and Certificate of Historic Appropriateness.

Statement of Justification 1 . Is the site suitable and adequate for the proposed use? Yes. The gentle slopping hillside, and immediate surrounding buildings have.a real feel of early Temecula. 2. Would the proposed use and design have a substantial adverse effect on traffic? No, Project is under 5,000 Square feet. 3. Would the proposed use have a substantial adverse impact on the general welfare of persons residing in the community? No. 4. is the design of the project compatible with the proposed development within the district and it's surroundings? Yes, the Arviso house is already been approved by the city as historically appropriate. Back Porch Addition Prior to WW2, no home seemed complete without its back porch, and that included the Arviso house. Until we began renovating the Arviso house, it too had a back porch. The back porch served a useful function as a place to perform domestic tasks such as laundry, and was where. one kept the icebox. However, with the extensive rebuilding that the building underwent, that porch was fully enclosed becoming a small room. This was largely due to security concerns; and since the rear of the property at.4t' and Mercedes was not serving a public function (as well as being several feet beneath the level of the first floor, there was no need to. have a rear exit. With the relocation of the Arviso house, we are now in need of a rear exit; and so we are planning to place it to the rear, and at the side. This.will allow us to present to the public a domestic place found in all but the crudest of early residences. Due to the steepness of the grounds behind where the Arviso house is. being placed, it is desirable to direct visitors away. from the rear of the building, as well as having an exit off the kitchen. The proposed placement works wellin accomplishing those. . goals. . The placement of the hospitality cabin adjacent to the Arviso house.will also minimize the visual imprint of the building.

The project was conditioned that a Comprehensive Sign Program be approved by the Planning Commission prior to issuance of a building permit. On September 17, 2007 the applicant submitted an application for a Comprehensive Sign Program for the Temecula Stage Stop complex. A Comprehensive Sign Program application is required, per the requirements of the Development Code, whenever two or more businesses exist in a multi-tenant development. Many signs currently exist on the building; however, the approval of a Comprehensive Sign Program for this complex will ensure that all signs for existing tenants/suites will eventually come into conformance with this sigr> criteria and all new signs will be consistent with one.another and with the architectural design of the buildings. On November 13, 2007, staff provided the applicant with DRC comment letter which outlined staffs requested revisions to the Sign Program. Staff continued to work with the applicant via meetings and e-mail to ensure the all the concerns were addressed and to expedite the processing of the application. Staff received a second revision of the Sign Program on January 3, 2008, and a third version of the Sign Program on February 13, 2008. Most of the review comments were addressed in the last revision; however, there are still two issues that were not resolved to the satisfaction to staff. These issues are summarized below and can be resolved through the conditions of approval. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant is proposing a Comprehensive Sign Program for the buildings located at 28464 Old Town Front Street. The Temecula Stage Stop complex consists of three buildings interconnected by several interior courtyards, stairways, and pedestrian corridors. The Sign Program outlines signage criteria for each building. The sin criterion has been carefully 9 9 9 9 9 crafted to compliment the unique layout and architecture of the three buildings. The Sign Program criterion defines the allowable signage area per building frontage, allowable signage types, fonts, colors and materials, sign location, placement, and size. The proposed signage for the tenants within the complex includes wall mounted signs, projecting signs, under canopy pedestrian oriented signs, and hanging signs. The wall signs are to be fabricated from sandblasted or carved wood and are proposed to be installed on the buildings where appropriate for each tenant and as shown on the exhibits contained in the Sign Program. The projecting signs are proposed to be installed on decorative brackets along Old Town Front Street and the adjacent parking lot to the east. These projecting signs will be .installed on the second floor wooden beam elements to provide additional visibility for tenants as vehicles and pedestrians pass by. T he under canopy signs are proposed to be installed perpendicular to the building in the pedestrian hallways on the first and second floors. Hanging signs are proposed to be installed parallel to the buildings where appropriate and as shown on the Sign Program exhibits. The Sign Program also includes proposed complex identifications signs. These signs will act as entry signs when pedestrians approach the complex from the pedestrian corridor along Old Town Front Street and Sixth Street. The proposed complex identification signage includes an G:\P1anning\2007\PA07-0265 Smge S�PBuil ' SIGN PROGRAM\Pla 6\OTLRB Staff Report.do 2 existing monument sign and proposed roof sign along Old Town Front Street as well as a wall sign facing the east parking lot. ANALYSIS The Old Town Specific Plan sets maximum signage area criteria for all signs placed on buildings in Old Town. The Old Town Specific Plan allows for 1.5 square feet of signage per linear foot of building frontage for the primary frontage (Old Town Front Street) and 0.5 square feet of signage per linear foot of secondary building frontage (Sixth Street and the east parking lot). Each building incorporates some combination of wall signs, projecting signs, under canopy signs, hanging signs and painted wall signs to reach the total allowable sign area to be installed on the building. The proposed sign materials, fonts, and color palette are consistent with the Old Town Specific Plan design guidelines and architectural compatibility requirements. Staff has ensured that the signage is consistent with the architectural style of the building, and compatible with the surrounding area. The allowable signage sizes are in proportion with the building fagade and are consistent with the requirements of the Old Town Specific Plan. Although staff supports the Sign Program, there are two elements of the Sign Program that must be revised for the sign criteria to be consistent with the Old Town Specific Plan. Section III.G.4.of the Old Town Specific Plan specifically prohibits roof mounted signs. For that reason, staff does not support the proposed building identification roof sign. Staff recognizes that the Temecula Stage Stop complex is designed to resemble an old train depot, and that, old train depots often had roof mounted identification signs; however, staff does support a sign that is inconsistent with the Specific Plan and recommends the following condition: 1. Page 3 of the Sign Program shall be revised to eliminate the language, "with the exception of a train depot style building identification sign" from the prohibited sign sign types list and to eliminate the roofs g depictions from Exhibits B-H. Staff also does not support the four blade signs proposed on the east elevation of the new retail building signs as well. The blade signs are proposed for interior building units with interior courtyard entrances. These units do not have any frontage which justifies the signs along the eastern.elevation. Staff believes the signs are excessive for a single tenant and too many signs along the east elevation compromise the architectural integrity of the building. Staff recommends the following condition: 2. The Sign Program shall be revised to eliminate the four blade signs shown on the second story of east elevation from Exhibits B-H. RECOMMENDATION Staff has determined that the proposed Sign Program Criteria is consistent with the signage requirements and Design Guidelines in the Old Town Specific Plan, that the signage will compliment the building architecture, and the colors and materials will further enhance the building facade. Staff is requesting that the Old Town Local Review Board review, provide comments, and recommend.that the Planning Commission approve this project. ATTACHMENT 1.

The Sign Program is intended to allow flexibility in signage to accommodate tenant needs and to maintain continuity within the Stage Stop Building. This Sign Program will allow flexibility in signage, yet not compromise the aesthetics of the Stage Stop Building. This will be achieved by establishing quality design guidelines and standards for all signs placed on the building, and by identifying approved sign envelopes for all proposed signs. The Stage Stop Building Site Plan is contained within Exhibit A. Sign envelopes for signage, including, but not limited to wall-mounted, projecting, hanging, center identification and monument signs are depicted on Exhibits B, C, D, E, F, G and H. All sign types shall be placed in a location that is approved by the landlord. They must comply with the design guidelines and size requirements of this Sign Program and are subject to approval by the City of Temecula. The Sign Program components, which are described in text and depicted with pictures and graphics are contained below and consist of the following: General Standards, Sign Standards, Approval Criteria, Non-Conforming Signs, Design Guidelines, and Modifications to the Sign Program. I. General Standards The standards, guidelines and provisions contained within this comprehensive Sign Program shall govern the exterior sign approvals for the Stage Stop Building. These guidelines are intended to ensure consistency, continuity and thematic harmony, and enhance the architectural quality of the building. Where an ambiguity arises or a different regulation exists, the standards within this comprehensive Sign Program shall be implemented as this program is structured to meet the 2 unique signage requirements of the Stage Stop Building and provide signage requirements where the Old Town Specific Plan (OTSP) does not. If this comprehensive Sign Program does not address a particular situation, then the Director of Planning may be consulted for interpretation or clarification. Permitted Sian Types a. Wall Signs b.

Signs over twelve square feet shall be reviewed by the OTLRB. IV. Non-Conforming Signs Legally non-conforming signs shall be brought into conformance when existing tenants vacate the building or a new sign replaces the legally non-conforming sign. All other signs, including new signs, shall comply with the criteria, guidelines and standards of this Sign Program. V. Design Guidelines The following Design Guidelines are intended to ensure the signage for Stage Stop Building results in high quality signs that are compatible and complement the architectural style of the building and other appropriate signs that currently exist on the structure: • Placement of signage is an important element to the building's aesthetic quality. Signs shall be placed to relate to and enhance the building architecture. • Signs shall be placed in an appropriate location, in proportion with the scale of building elements. Signs may be placed in different areas. A particular sign may fit well on a 9 plain wall area, but would overpower the finer scale and proportion of the lower store front. For example, a sign that is appropriate for the building entry may look inappropriate above the ground level. The approved sign envelopes and maximum size requirements stated above will help ensure proper placement and proportion of the signs. ■ Sign lettering should contain clear and legible fonts. Western style typefaces that are easy to read should be utilized. Decorative fonts are difficult to read and make the sign ineffective. ■ Provide a brief, clear message on the sign. Typically, the fewer words the more effective the sign. • Creative, unique, quality signs are encouraged. However, strange and awkward signs that are unnecessarily narrow, oddly shaped, or unrelated to the products or services being provided on site can restrict the legibility of the message. • When appropriate, utilize shapes and characteristics of the products being used or sold. • For pedestrian oriented signs such as projecting, hanging or wall signs, they should be smaller and have a human-scale, not oriented to the vehicle. • Incorporate directional and general building signage such as directory, parking, elevator, etc. atappropriate locations and entries to guide the patrons throughout the site. 9 P 9 Colora Maferia/s In order to achieve continuity and compatibility among signs, the colors and materials need to be similar and complementary to each other and the building. The following guidelines should be incorporated when selecting sign colors and materials: ■ Colors should be compatible with the architecture and color of the building and contribute to the design integrity. • Colors should be from the approved Sherwin Williams Preservation Palette. However, nationally recognized colors and logos which deviate from the approved color palette shall be reviewed by the OTLRB and may be permitted with OTLRB approval. ■ Some color combinations render a sign illegible. Therefore careful consideration should be given to the color selection. • Use significant contrast between the background, lettering or symbol colors. ■ Limit the colors on one sign. Too many colors overwhelm the basic function of communication. Limited use of the accent colors can increase legibility, while large areas of competing colors tend to confuse the reader. Given the early 1900's western nature of Old Town and the Stage Stop Building, the sign needs to reflect a period appropriate material that will be complementary to the architecture of the building. The following are materials that would be appropriate for the Stage Stop Building: 10 Permitted Sian Materials • Signs made of carved or sand blasted wood. • Signs of synthetic material that take on the appearance of wood are permitted; however, approval of the landlord, Planning Director and OTLRB is required prior to installation of the sign. • Metal ■ Wrought Iron or Similar Material • Painted Wall Signs Prohibited Sian Materials • Plywood • Neon • Injection Molded or Formed Plastic • Vinyl VI. Modifications to the Sian Proaram Although this Sign Program was written to be a long-range planning document that will be effective now as well as in the future, it is anticipated that modifications will be necessary over time as the built environment in Oid Town changes and the composition of the tenants change (i.e. if antique businesses are no longer the prominent business in Old Town or more restaurants are developed). Modifications shall be approved through an amendment to this Sign Program by a separate planning application, review by the OTLRB and approval by the Planning Director. List of Exhibits A.
