BACKGROUND SUMMARY
The applicant is requesting a Minor Conditional Use Permit to operate a church (Lighthouse
Community Church), within an existing 3,564 square foot industrial suite located at 41636
Enterprise Circle North. The church members will meet on Sundays from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00
noon and on Wednesday evenings between 7:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. for religious studies and
services.
Currently, the church consists of approximately 30-35 members. Since the church has a small
congregation, they are currently requesting to utilize approximately 531 square feet of assembly
area within the suite to accommodate their worship services at this time. However, in order to
accommodate the future growth of the congregation, the applicant has indicated that an
additional 844 square feet is available within the suite for future assembly use. Additionally, 986
square feet of classroom space is also available for future use. The 844 square feet of future
assembly area has been analyzed as a part of this Conditional Use Permit so that the applicant
does not need to apply for a revised Conditional Use Permit at a later time once the
congregation grows and the need to utilize the additional assembly spaces arises.
Additionally, the applicant has indicated that the 986 square feet of classroom space will only be
utilized for break-out groups and/or children's classes as ancillary uses only, and will not be
used as additional assembly space. The project has been conditioned to ensure that classroom
spaces will not be used as additional assembly area, which would affect the number of parking
spaces that would be needed by the congregation.
The suite in which the church is proposed to be located also includes 660 square feet of storage
space which will be used to store musical instruments, tables and chairs, and band equipment.
The project has been conditioned to ensure that this space will not be used as assembly area
and will only be accessed by church officials during the church's normal operating hours.
Staff has worked with the applicant to ensure that all concerns have been addressed, and the
applicant concurs with the recommended Conditions of Approval.
ANALYSIS
Development Code Section 17.08.030 requires the approval of a Minor Conditional Use Permit
to allow for a religious institution, such as Lighthouse Community Church, to operate in the
Business Park zoning district. The project, as conditioned, is compatible with the adjacent uses
and is not anticipated to have an adverse effect on the surrounding businesses or tenants.
The church will operate off-peak from the other uses that currently occupy the building.
Currently Suites 100 and 300 are occupied by Binanca Products, whose hours of operation are
Monday — Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Binanca Products distributes air pumps and is
primarily a warehouse and office use. Suite 200 is occupied by MGN International, whose hours
of operation are Monday — Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. MGN International distributes
analytical instruments and is also primarily a warehouse and office use. Suite 500 is currently
vacant. The church will operate in the evenings on Wednesdays and.on Sundays during the
late morning. For that reason, the proposed use will not conflict with the other daytime uses that
operate during normal business hours (8:00 a.m. — 4:30 p.m.) Monday —Friday. All of the
existing uses located within the building are daytime uses and the church is an evening use,
therefore the uses are not anticipated to conflict.

Currently there are 39 available parking spaces that exist on the site. Due to the fact that the
church's hours of operation are off-peak from the other uses that currently occupy the building, it
is anticipated that the proposed church use will not have an adverse impact on parking. The
combined daytime uses require 23 parking spaces total. The church use, based upon the total
assembly area (existing and future), required 39 spaces total.
The project has also been reviewed by the City of Temecula Building and Safety Department
and Fire Prevention Bureau and they have issued Conditions of Approval. The project has also
been conditioned to require that any new construction will require that the applicant obtain all
applicable building and fire permits prior to the commencement of any construction work or
tenant improvements that may be necessary as the congregation grows.
LEGAL NOTICING REQUIREMENTS
Notice of the public hearing was published in the Californian on July 12, 2008 and mailed to the
property owners within the required 600-foot radius.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project has been
deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review. (CEQA Section 15301,
Class 1— Existing Facilities).
The proposed project qualifies for a Class 1 exemption. According to the CEQA Guidelines, the
primary consideration in determining whether or not a project qualifies for a Class 1 exemption
is to consider if the project involves negligible or no expansion of the use. The existing building
was originally anticipated to house industrial, office or warehouse type uses, or other uses as
conditionally permitted. The proposed conditional use will be located within an existing
industrial suite and the project scope does not involve any physical expansion of the existing
building. The land use (proposed church) has been analyzed and it has been determined that,
since the use will be located within an existing building and no physical expansion is involved in
the scope of the project, further environmental review is not necessary. The project is consistent
with a Class 1 exemption and meets all applicable Development Code requirements and is
therefore anticipated to have a less than significant impact on the environment.
FINDINGS
Development Code Section 17.04.010 —Conditional Use Permits
The proposed conditional use is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code
The proposed conditional use is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code.
According to the General Plan, the Industrial Park (IP) land use designation anticipated uses
such as warehouses, light industrial and light manufacturing uses and professional offices.
Originally, the building in which Lighthouse Community Church is proposed to be located was
constructed to house uses consistent with the Industrial Pak land use designation. However,
since the Development Code implements the City of Temecula's General Plan and church's are
conditionally permitted in the Business Park zone, which is consistent with the Industrial Park
land use designation, the proposed project, as conditioned is consistent with the General Plan.
The proposed project meets all applicable Development Code requirements, including parking,
and as conditioned is not anticipated to have an adverse impact on surrounding uses.

The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and development of
adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional use will not adversely
affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures.
The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and development of the
adjacent uses, building and structures and the proposed conditional use will not adversely affect
the adjacent uses, buildings or structures. The adjacent uses located within the same building
as the proposed conditional use are uses that are consistent with the Business Park zoning
designation. The uses consist of a combination of distribution, office and warehouse type uses
and operate Monday — Friday during normal business hours. The proposed conditional use
(Lighthouse Community Church) will not adversely impact the adjacent uses, buildings or
structures. The church will operate on Wednesday evenings and on Sunday mornings. The
church's operation is not anticipated to effect the other uses on -site as the hours of operation for
the church are off-peak from the hours of the other uses in the buildings. It has been
determined that the project, as conditioned, is compatible with the existing uses and will not
adversely impact them.
The site for a proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the
yards, walls, fences, parking and loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping, and other
development features prescribed in this development code to integrate the use with other uses
in the neighborhood.
The site for the proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the
yards, walls, fences, parking and loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping and other
development features prescribed in the Development Code in order to integrate the use with the
other uses in the neighborhood. The building in which the proposed conditional use is to be
located, was constructed to ensure adequate space for the construction of all necessary walls,
fences, yards, buffer areas and landscape areas. The conditional use does not propose to
change or modify any of the above mentioned features. An analysis of the parking area has
determined that there is adequate parking provided on the site to support both the office,
warehouse and distribution type uses during the daytime hours, and accommodate the
proposed church during evening and weekend hours. As conditioned, the conditional use will
adequately integrate into the existing neighborhood and is not anticipated to be an incompatible
use.
The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety and general
welfare of the community.
The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety and general
welfare of the community. The proposed conditional use is a church (Lighthouse Community
Church) which is proposed to be located within an existing light industrial suite. It has been
determined that the proposed conditional use, as conditioned, will not adversely impact the
adjacent buildings, uses or structures and that the use is compatible with the surrounding area.
The health, safety and general welfare of the community is not anticipated to be adversely
impacted by the conditional use, as the project meets all applicable Development Code
requirements, which is intended to help preserve the health, safety and general welfare of the
community.

Section 3. Environmental Findings. The Director of Planning hereby makes
the following environmental findings and determinations in connection with the approval
of the Minor Conditional Use Permit Application:
A. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed
project has been deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review
(CEQA Section 15301, Class 1 Existing Facilities).
The proposed project has been determined to be categorically exempt from further
environmental review and qualifies for a Class 1 exemption. According to the CEQA
Guidelines, the primary consideration in determining whether or not a project qualifies
for a Class 1 exemption is to consider if the project involves negligible or no expansion
of the use. The existing building was originally anticipated to house industrial, office or
warehouse type uses, or other uses as conditionally permitted. The proposed
conditional use will be located within an existing industrial suite and the project scope
does not involve any physical expansion of the existing building. The land use
(proposed church) has been analyzed and it has been determined that since the use will
be located within an existing building and no physical expansion is involved in the scope
of the project that further environmental review is not necessary. The project is
consistent with a Class 1 exemption and meets all applicable Development Code
requirements and is therefore anticipated to have a less than significant impact on the
environment.
Section 4. Conditions. The Director of Planning of the City of Temecula
approves Planning Application No. PA08-0051, A Minor Conditional Use Permit to
authorize the operation of Faro de Luz Nueva Esperanza (Lighthouse Community
Church) in a 3,564 square foot space (Suite D) within an existing 18,400 square foot

Faro de Luz Nueva Esperanza (Lighthouse Community Church) is a newly
formed church consisting of approximately 30-35 residents from within the
community.
The purpose of purchasing the Industrial Condo and the subsequent Minor CUP
is so that the church's members have an affordable, consistent gathering place
that accommodates all of its members. Currently, members meet at respective
individuals homes which severely restrict participation by all of its members. For
practical purposes, there are no employees. Although, few parishioners will carry
out tasks that would be typical of a volunteer organization such as, routine
preparation of the facility for services. Those tasks are anticipated to include the
set up and organization of seating and tables and, the preparation of coffee, juice
and pastries.
Faro de Luz Nueva Esperanza (Lighthouse Community Church)will meet on
Sundays between the hours of 10:00 a.m.-12:00 Noon and, on Wednesday
evenings between 7:30 p.m.-9:00 p.m. for religious studies and services.
Currently, the Church will utilize the area noted as "Existing Assembly Area" for
its worship services. The "Future Assembly Area' and Classrooms will be built
out at a yet to be determined date and by permit through Building and Safety.
The reference to the future areas is for the Minor CUP process only, so that the
applicant will not have to apply for a revised MCUP at that later date.
When the classrooms are built out, they will only be utilized for break-out groups
and/or children's classes. They are ancillary uses only. The classrooms shall not
be utilized as additional assembly area and are not included in the gross FAR.
The warehouse/storage area will be utilized for the storage of typical Church
items; in this case it will be excess tables, chairs and musical instruments, no
other equipment will be utilized and no chemicals or hazardous materials will be
stored. The warehouse/storage area will only be accessed by Church officials
during Church operation hours.
Since the Church use and hours of operation do not conflict/compete with other
uses on the site, parking calculations were based on the existing parking
spaces (refer to parking table on Sheet A-1).
