G. All legal preconditions to the adoption of the Resolution have occurred.
Section 2. Further Findings. The Planning Commission, in approving the
Applications hereby finds, determines and declares that:
Development Plan, Section 17.05.020F
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;
As conditioned, the proposal is consistent with the General Plan land use policies
for Community Commercial (CC) development in the City of Temecula General
Plan and the Tourist Retail Core designation in the Old Town Specific Plan. The
General Plan has listed the proposed uses, including retail, professional office,
and service-oriented businesses, as typical uses in the Community Commercial
designation.
B. The overall development of the land is designed for the protection of the
public health, safety, and general welfare;
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.
Sign Program, Section 17.28.080B
A. The proposed signs enhance the development, and are in harmony with,
and visually related to all of the signs included in the Sign Program.
B. All of the signs shall be included in the Sign Program. This shall be
accomplished by incorporating several common design elements such as materials,
letter style, colors, illumination, sign type, or sign shape;
All signage proposed for the Truax Building is included in the Sign Program. The
Sign Program allows for a vertical marquee sign at the corner of Second and
Mercedes Streets, Frieze/Wall Mounted Signs just above the first floor retail shop
windows and awnings, directional/blade signs, and tenant window signs. The
sign types provide for visual interest and an upscale theme.
C. The proposed signs enhance the development, and are in harmony with
and visually related to the buildings and/or the developments they identify by utilizing
materials, color, or design motifs included in the building being identified;
The proposed vertical marquee sign is consistent with the period architecture.
The wall and window signage is carefully placed to promote businesses while
maintaining the building's architectural style.
D. The proposed signs enhance the development and are in harmony with
and visually related to surrounding development by not adversely affecting surrounding
land uses or obscuring adjacent approved signs;
The surrounding development will not be adversely affected by the proposed
signage. The proposed project is located in Old Town Specific Plan area.
Allowing new signs would not adversely affect the surrounding development or
neighborhoods, or obscure any adjacent approved signs.
E. The Sign Program accommodates future revisions which may be required
due to changes in building tenants;
The Development Code allows revisions to Sign Programs either by completing a
Minor or Major Modification application to the original Sign Program. New
signage or a change in signage will be permitted administratively by the Planning
Department.
F. The proposed program satisfies the intent of the sign criteria in the
Development Code, except that flexibility is allowed with regards to sign area, number,
location, and height;
The proposed Sign Program is consistent with the sign standards listed in the
Old Town Specific Plan while satisfying the applicant's request in sign variation in
sizes, colors, and styles.
Section 3. Environmental Findings. The Planning Commission hereby makes
the following environmental findings and determinations in connection with the approval
of the Development Plan and Sign Program Applications:
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 15332, Class 32 In-fill Development);
1. The project site is 0.52 acres located in Old Town (urban area). The
proposed building is consistent with the General Plan and zoning
designation and can be adequately served by all required utilities and
public services. No significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality,
or water quality will result from approving the project with the proposed
Conditions of Approval.
2. The site has been previously disturbed and has no value as habitat for
endangered, rare or threatened species.
Section 4. Conditions. The Planning Commission of the City of Temecula
approves Planning Application Nos. PA08-0008, a Development Plan to construct a
66,075 square foot, four-story building, and PA08-0083, a Sign Program for the
