Stanley Harter Chairman Patrick Richardson Director of Planning and Redevelopment 3 ITEM 2 STAFF REPORT-PLANNING CITY OF TEMECULA PLANNING COMMISSION DATE OF MEETING: August 19, 2009 PREPARED BY: Dana Schuma, Case Planner APPLICANT NAME: William Cresswell PROJECT Planning Application Numbers PA09-0229 and PA09-0230, a SUMMARY: Conditional Use Permit and an associated Finding of Public Convenience or Necessity to authorize Granny's Grapes of the Vine to sell wine and beer for on-site consumption (Type-42 ABC license) in an existing building located at 28450 Felix Valdez Road CEQA: Categorically Exempt Section 15301, Class 1 Existing Facilities RECOMMENDATION: Approve with Conditions BACKGROUND SUMMARY On June 16, 2009, a Pre-application was submitted for Granny's Grapes of the Vines. A DRC was held with the applicants on July 9, 2009 to discuss the requirements for the proposal. On July 15, 2009, William Cresswell submitted Planning Application No. PA09-0230 requesting that the City of Temecula Planning Commission make a Finding of Public Convenience or Necessity for Granny's Grapes of the Vine, and Planning Application No. PA09-0229, a Conditional Use Permit for a Type-42 ABC license to be issued in the Service Commercial (SC) zoning district addressed as 28450 Felix Valdez Road. The proposed business, Granny's Grapes of the Vine, will occupy a 540-square foot suite at an existing antique and furniture retail store know as Granny's Attic. Proposed hours of operation will be seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. A detailed Statement of Operations and Letter of Justification have been attached. 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 Per the City's Development Code, wine tasting shops are permitted in the Service Commercial zoning district. However, wine tasting facilities not affiliated with a winery are considered a wine bar and must obtain a Type-42 ABC license. Wine bars operating with a Type-42 ABC license may offer the sale of beer and wine for consumption on or off the premises and are not exclusively limited to wine tasting, but may also sell beer and wine by the glass. Because these facilities are not limited to wine tasting only, they are required to obtain a Conditional Use Permit. The Section 17.10.20B of the Development Code requires that the alcohol selling business be at least 500 feet away from sensitive uses (schools, parks, religious institution); however, this requirement shall not apply when the alcohol-selling business and the church, school or park are both located within commercial or industrial zones. There are not any existing religious facilities, schools, or parks within 500 feet of the proposed location for Granny's Grapes of the Vine. The California Department of Alcohol Beverage Control (ABC) considers the Census Tract in which the project site is located to be "over-concentrated" in Type 42 licenses. For this reason, Public Convenience or Necessity findings are required. In order for the Finding of Public Convenience or Necessity to be made, the proposed use must be compatible with the surrounding land uses and cannot result in an excessive number of similar establishments in close proximity. As provided by the State of California Department of Alcohol and Beverage Control, the Census Tract is considered over-concentrated when there are more than three existing licenses. Currently, there are four Type-42 licenses within the Census Tract. These businesses are dispersed throughout the Census Tract. Currently, the following businesses have a Type-42 license: The Wine and Beer Garden, Stellar Cellar, Temecula Valley Cheese Company, and Zarka Cigar Lounge. Staff has determined that the consumption and sale of wine at this location is a compatible and consistent land use when compared to the other commercial retail type businesses in the surrounding area and the new license for Granny's Grapes of the Vine would not result in an excessive number of similar establishments within the Census Tract. Another license would result in added convenience for patrons within a unique setting while shopping at Granny's Attic for antiques and/or collectables. Granny's Grapes of the Vine will be a wine bar offering wine by the glass and beer upon request. Operations will include wine tastings and packaged food retail. The proposed use does not jeopardize or adversely affect the character of the area and would provide a unique wine bar facility as other such facilities in the area not associated with antique sales. The applicant has proposed to secure the 540-square foot wine bar area within the facility where minors are not permitted to enter. The consumption of wine or beer outside the gated facility will not be permitted. The site layout and parking of the existing building is consistent with the City's Development Code. Access to the site is taken from two separate driveways off Felix Valdez Road. Parking for the site meets the City's Development Code requirements. Vehicular access currently exists throughout the parking lot. The Police Department reviewed the proposal and approves the project subject to conditions prohibiting the sale of alcohol between the hours of 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. (PD-5). LEGAL NOTICING REQUIREMENTS Notice of the public hearing was published in the Californian on August 8, 2009 and mailed to the property owners within the required 600-foot radius. 2 ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project has been deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review (Section 15301, Class 1 Existing Facilities). The request for a Minor Conditional Use Permit and Finding of Public Convenience or Necessity for a Type-42 ABC license at the proposed site will be conducted within an existing building in a developed area of the City. All access and public utilities are available to the site. The proposed use with issuance of a CUP is in conformance with all zoning requirements of the Development Code and the General Plan. FINDINGS Conditional Use Permit (Development Code Section 17.04.010E) The proposed conditional use is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code The proposed wine bar is a conditionally permitted use in the Service Commercial (SC) zoning district. The proposed use is consistent with the City of Temecula General Plan which specifies that the Service Commercial (SC) designation includes retail, commercial, and service oriented business activities serving the community. The site is properly planned and zoned, and as conditioned, is physically suitable for the type of use proposed. The use, as conditioned, is also consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local ordinances, including the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and fire and building codes. 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 adjacent uses, buildings and structures. The wine bar is proposed in an existing building within a well developed area. The proposed conditional use will provide additional convenience for the community, and allow the business to be competitive with other establishments in the area. The conditional use has also been reviewed by the City of Temecula Fire, Building and Safety, Public Works and Police Department to ensure the sale of alcohol will operate safely and not affect any adjacent uses, buildings or structures. 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 the Development Code and required by the Planning Commission or City Council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood. The site for the conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the proposed use. All yards, walls, fences, loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping and other development features described in the City of Temecula Development Code exist and are not affected by the proposed use. The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare of the community. The proposed project is consistent with the requirements outlined in Chapter 17.04.010 and 17.10.208 of the City of Temecula's Development Code. The requirements for the proposed conditional use are intended to protect the health and safety of those in and around the site. The City of Temecula Planning, Fire, Building and Safety, Public Works and Police Departments have reviewed this Conditional Use Permit and determined that it will not be detrimental to the health, safety and welfare of the community as conditioned. In addition, the Riverside County Department of Environmental Health has also reviewed and conditioned the project That the decision to conditionally approve the application for a Conditional Use Permit be based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole before the Planning Commission. The decision to conditionally approve the application has been based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole. Public Convenience or Necessity (Development Code Section 17.10.020.6.5) Is the proposed use consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code? The proposed wine bar is a conditionally permitted use in the Service Commercial (SC) zoning district. The proposed use is consistent with the City of Temecula General Plan which specifies that the Service Commercial (SC) designation includes retail, commercial, and service oriented business activities serving the community. The site is properly planned and zoned, and as conditioned, is physically suitable for the use type proposed. The use, as conditioned, is also consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local Ordinances, including the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and fire and building codes. Is the proposed use compatible with the nature, condition and character of the adjacent land uses? The wine bar is proposed in an existing retail furniture building within the Service Commercial (SC) zoning district. This building and the surrounding area includes other retail and service commercial oriented businesses. The on-site consumption of wine and beer at this location is compatible with the nature, condition and character of adjacent land uses. Will the proposed use have an adverse affect on adjacent land uses? It is not anticipated that the proposed use will have an adverse affect on adjacent land uses, as all of the adjacent land uses are primarily commercial retail and restaurant type uses, and the proposed project is anticipated to add to the convenience and diversity of uses located within in the area. Would the proposed use result in an excessive number of similar establishments in close proximity? With regard to the over concentration of existing licenses in the Census Tract, three licenses are allowed before Census Tract 0432.15 is considered to be over-concentrated by ABC's standards. The 57 active on-sale licenses are currently dispersed throughout the tract; therefore, the new license in the Census Tract would not result in an excessive number of similar establishments in close proximity, and this is the only establishment of this type within the area.

Letter of Justification - Granny's Grapes of the Vine Public Convenience or Necessity The following is a Letter of Justification (Justification) which outlines the request by Granny's Grapes of the Vine for approval of findings for public convenience or necessity. This Justification describes how Granny's Grapes of the Vine and its associated sale of alcoholic beverages promotes and satisfies the goals and policies of the City of Temecula General Plan and Development Code. The following questions have been answered to support this Justification. Does the proposed establishment have any unique features, which are not found in other similar uses in the community (i.e., types of games, types of food, and other special services)? Response: No. The proposed establishment does not have any unique features, which are not found in other similar uses in the community (i.e., types of games, types of food, and other special services). The Type 42 liquor license requested (on- and off-sale, beer and wine only) and the retail nature of this business is similar to other facilities of this type. However, it should be noted that this is the only establishment of its type in its immediate area. 2. Does the proposed establishment cater to an under-served population (i.e., patrons of a different socio-economic class)? Response: No. Granny's Grapes of the Vine does not cater to an under-served population (i.e., patrons of a different socio-economic class). 3. Would the proposed mode of operation of the proposed establishment (i.e., sales in conjunction with gasoline sales, tours, etc.) be unique or differ from that of other establishments in the area? Response: Yes. The proposed mode of operation of Granny's Grapes of the Vine will be unique or differ from that of other similar types of establishments in the area in that the store is located inside the Antiques Mall and antiques will be available for purchase in the store itself as well. Granny's Grapes of the Vine will be a complimentary use in this setting. 4. Are there any geographical boundaries (i.e., rivers, hillsides) or traffic barriers (i.e., freeways, major roads, major intersections) separating the proposed establishment from other establishments? Response: Yes. Murrieta Creek is located immediately behind the Granny's Attic Center to the east and acts as a geographical boundary separating the proposed establishment from other establishments which are located on retail/commercial corridors like Old Town Front Street and Jefferson Avenue. Interstate 15 (1-15) is also located further to the east and it serves as a boundary from other establishments as well. There are no other alcohol sales facilities within the Granny's Attic Center, or within the immediate surroundings. 5. Is the proposed establishment located in an area where there is a significant influx of population during certain seasonal periods? Response: No. Granny's Grapes of the Vine is not located in an area where there is a significant influx of population during certain seasonal periods. This area is considered an extension of the tourist area located within Old Town Temecula which has seasonal events (i.e., Rod Run, Bluegrass Festival, Jazz Festival, etc.); however, it is not located in the core area where these events occur. 6. Is there a proliferation of licensed establishments within the Census Tract of the proposed establishment? Response: Yes. According to the Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), there is a proliferation of licensed establishments within the Census Tract that Granny's Grapes of the Vine is located within. This has necessitated the application for a finding of Public Convenience or Necessity (PCN) by the City of Temecula. The ABC can issue the liquor license pending City approval of the Minor Conditional Use Permit (MCUP) and PCN by the City of Temecula Planning Commission. 7. Are there any sensitive uses (i.e., schools, parks, hospitals, churches) in close proximity (500 feet) to the proposed establishment? Response: No. There are no sensitive uses within 500 of Granny's Grapes of the Vine. 8. Would the proposed establishment interfere with these sensitive uses? Response: No. Please see Response No. 7, above. 9. Would the proposed establishment interfere with the quiet enjoyment of their property by the residents of the area? Response: No. It is not anticipated that Granny's Grapes of the Vine will interfere with the quiet enjoyment of property by residents of the area. Residences are located to the south of the site, along Felix Valdez Road. However, the proposed use will be located indoors and will not result in any increases in noise that could interfere with the quiet enjoyment of their property by residents in the area. 10. Will the proposed establishment add to law enforcement problems in the area? Response: No. It is not anticipated that Granny's Grapes of the Vine will result in an addition to law enforcement problems in the area. Due to the limited scale and nature of the use, any addition to law enforcement problems in the area will be considered miniscule. Granny's Grapes of the Vine will have a zero-tolerance policy for alcohol violations.

Staff met with the applicants several times in the following months to discuss feasible site design, circulation, and improvements. The applicants resubmitted the pre-application on November 20, 2009. The revised plans removed water park access off of Cherry Street and placed the primary ingress and egress off of Dendy Parkway. Applications for a Tentative Parcel Map (TPM 36175) and Conditional Use Permit with a Development Plan were submitted on February 5, 2009. A DRC meeting was held on March 5, 2009, to discuss site design, landscaping, architecture, access points, right-of-way easements, and other departmental issues. The applicant submitted a revised Tentative Parcel Map on April 1, 2009 and a revised site plan for the Conditional Use Permit on June 4, 2009. As staff continued to work with the applicant during the 10 month period between October 2008 and July 2009, several status letters were sent documenting the unresolved project issues. Additionally, weekly conference calls were held with representatives of Clearwater Development during the 10 month processing time to discuss concerns over the environmental impacts and Tentative Map issues, including the Diaz Road right-of-way improvements, access points, fault zones, and grading and surcharging of the site. The applicant submitted additional revised plans on July 16, 2009, and the plans addressed Planning staff recommendations. A final traffic impact analysis report was submitted on June 30, 2009, which enabled staff to move forward with the initial study for the project. Staff prepared and noticed the Mitigated Negative Declaration for public comment on July 28, 2009. 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 Tentative Parcel Map The project proposes to subdivide 35 acres into three lots, two developable parcels and one parcel to be dedicated for public improvements. The property is zoned Planned Development Overlay District-10 (PDO-10). The development standards for PDO-10, found in Section 17.22.218 of the Development Code, require that lots within this zone have a minimum lot size of 7,000 square feet. All parcels meet the minimum lot size requirements. The average lot size will be approximately 12 acres (522,720 square feet). Parcel 1 will be 19.7 gross acres, Parcel 2 will be 11.3 gross acres, and Parcel 3 will be 4 acres. A Conditional Use Permit with a Development Plan (PA09-0041) proposes a community water park facility on Parcel 1 of TPM 36175. There is no current proposal to develop Parcel 2, and Parcel 3 will consist of future right-of-way improvements to Diaz Road and a drainage easement in favor of the City of Temecula. Conditional Use Permit According to Section 17.22.210 of the Development Code, "Sports and Recreational Facilities" are a conditionally permitted use in the PDO-10 zone. Staff has reviewed the application and determined that the findings for approval can be made. The proposed water park is consistent with surrounding uses, and the structures will not adversely impact existing buildings or uses because recreational uses already exist in the area and do not conflict with the surrounding industrial development. The applicant provided a "Statement of Operations" (attached) for staff's review in determining the appropriateness of the proposed use. The water park will operate approximately four months of the calendar year, seven days a week, from Memorial Day to Labor Day, 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Depending on the weather, the park may also be open a couple of weekends before Memorial Day and after Labor Day. The water park will retain a full time staff of 15 employees and 300 seasonal employees. The seasonal employees will primarily be youth recruited from within the local community. Staff identified no major concerns in reviewing the proposed conditional use. The use will not jeopardize or adversely affect the character of the area and is consistent with the General Plan, as well as with the zoning designations of the Development Code. Site Plan The proposed water park development on Parcel 1 will consist of 29,580 square feet of building area and 80,394 square feet of water feature area, including a wave pool, a lazy river, several water attractions, slides, and a splash and spray zone. In addition, the site will provide ancillary food service buildings and vending carts along with shade structures, picnic areas, lockers and changing rooms, and two separate areas for restrooms. The maximum building height allowed in the Temecula Education Center Planned Development Overlay (PDO-10) zone for retail uses is 40 feet. All buildings, mechanical enclosures, and water attractions meet the 40 foot maximum height requirement. The tallest structure proposed on site is the entry feature at a height of 38 feet, 2 inches. This project has been conditioned that water attractions shall not exceed the maximum building height of 40 feet. The proposed project also meets the minimum setback standards for the zone. The front yard building setback (facing Dendy Parkway) will vary from 40 feet to 50 feet. The maximum wall height permitted in the PDO-10 zone is 8 feet. The water park feature area of the site will be enclosed by a seven foot tall perimeter wall with portions being tubular steel. Landscape buffer areas are proposed along the entire site perimeter and vary from 8 feet on the west side of the site to 50 feet on the east side of the site. 3 The target FAR is 2.0 and the project proposes a floor area ratio (FAR) of 0.13 percent including the 80,394 square foot water feature area. As designed, the project conforms to all the development regulations listed in the City's Development Code, including building setbacks and lot coverage. Architecture The water park is a unique facility targeted for community entertainment. The project proposes "Ranch/Western" style architecture and is consistent with City-Wide Design Guidelines. The Design Guidelines state that "main entries accessible to the public should be pronounced and easily recognizable." The water park proposes a 38-foot tall steel framed shade structure with open web steel trusses to enhance the main entry to the park. Associated buildings (such as the administrative offices, party barn, etc.) consist of vertical wood and hardie-plank siding. Details such as a clock element, porch overhangs, decorative vents, and variation of window placement and size create architectural interest on the buildings. The buildings also contain various roof heights and pitches which provide for interest and lessen the building mass. Dormers are also added to create additional interest. The various roofs are constructed of standing seam metal, corrugated galvanized sheet metal, and asphalt shingle roofing. Some portions of the buildings (including roofs) and the slides will be painted in colors of red, yellow, blue, and green to generate excitement and energy. Landscaping The project proposes to landscape 267,050 square feet or 31 percent of the site, which exceeds the minimum landscaping requirement of 25 percent for the PDO-10 zone. A landscape buffer ranging between 20 and 30 feet has been provided along Dendy Parkway to soften and screen the water park use from the adjacent businesses. The water park landscape plan conforms to the landscape requirements of the Development Code and Design Guidelines. Tree and shrub placement will serve to screen onsite parking, trash enclosure areas, and effectively soften buildings, water attractions, and perimeter walls and fencing. The project proposes 30 different types of trees in various sizes ranging from 15 gallon to 36-inch size box trees. Access/Circulation Primary access to the site will be from Dendy Parkway. Ingress and egress access to the park will be provided via two access points off of Dendy Parkway. The western access point off of Dendy will provide entry to the park and the eastern access point off of Dendy will be for exiting the park. The proposed project will have three entrance lanes including a bus lane. The parking lot and access points are designed to provide for adequate circulation of vehicles coming and leaving the park as well as provide for a quick admissions process. In compliance with safety requirements for two points of access, one emergency only access point will be provided off of Cherry Avenue. The Fire Department has reviewed the site plan and determined that there is proper access and circulation to provide emergency service vehicles to the site. The Public Works Department has reviewed the site plan and has determined that the project, as conditioned, provides adequate access points and right-of-way dedications. In addition, staff has analyzed the potential traffic impacts of the project provided in the Traffic Impact Analysis Report prepared by DKS Associates dated June 30, 2009, and has determined that with implementation of the required 4 improvements and fees as part of the Conditions of Approval the projected traffic volumes from the project will be less than significant. The City of Temecula requires parking be provided at a ratio of one space per 1,000 square feet of recreation area. The park will accommodate 455 vehicles including nine handicapped parking spaces and five bus spaces, which is in compliance with the City's parking standards. Parking attendants will be located onsite to accept payment and direct park attendees entering and leaving the site at all times during business hours. It is anticipated that that average daily attendance will be 2,000 people. Based on previous water park experience, the applicant estimates that 50% of the attendance (approximately 185 vehicles) will arrive at the park between the hours of 9:30 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. Eighty-five percent of the daily attendance (approximately 130 cars) will arrive before 3:30 p.m. The remaining 15% (approximately 55 vehicles) will arrive between 3:30 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. According to the Traffic Analysis, most trips generated by the operation of the water park will be during off-peak hours. LEGAL NOTICING REQUIREMENTS Notice of the public hearing was published in the Californian on August 8, 2009, and mailed to the property owners within the required 1200-foot radius. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION Staff has reviewed the project in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and based on an initial study, it has been determined that the project will not have a significant impact on the environment; therefore, a Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared for the project. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), City staff prepared an Initial Study to determine potential environmental effects of the approval of the Tentative Parcel Map (TPM 36175) and Conditional Use Permit as described in the Initial Study. Based upon the findings contained in the Initial Study, City staff determined that there was no substantial evidence that the project would have a significant effect on the environment and a Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, City staff provided public notice of the public comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration as required by law. The public comment period commenced on July 28, 2009, and expired on August 16, 2009. Copies of the documents have been available for public review and inspection at the offices of the Department of Planning, located at City Hall, 43200 Business Park Drive, Temecula, California 92590. No written comments in response to the circulated Mitigated Negative Declaration were received prior to the public hearing. FINDINGS Tentative Parcel Map, Subdivision Ordinance Section 16.09.140 The proposed subdivision and the design and improvements of the subdivision are consistent with the Development Code, General Plan, and the City of Temecula Municipal Code. Tentative Parcel Map No. 36175 is consistent with the General Plan, the Subdivision Ordinance, the Development Code, and Municipal Code because the project has been processed and designed in a manner that is consistent with the policies and standards contained in those documents. The Tentative Map does not propose to divide land which is subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965, or the land is subject to a Land Conservation Act contract but the resulting parcels following division of the land will not be too small to sustain agricultural use. The subject parcels do not propose to divide land which is subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965. The subject property has not been designated for conservation or agricultural land, and is not subject to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965. The site is physically suitable for the type and proposed density of development proposed by the Tentative Map. The site is physically suitable for the proposed water park development because the proposed Tentative Parcel Map (TPM 36175) meets the minimum lot size requirements contained within the PDO-10 zoning district, and is consistent with all the density requirements of the City of Temecula Subdivision Ordinance. The proposed water park use on Parcel 1 of TPM 36175 is consistent with the land use requirements of the General Plan and the development standards of the Development Code and PDO-10. The design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements, with Conditions of Approval are not likely to cause significant environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. The proposed project site is highly disturbed from grading and surcharging of the site. All potential impacts from the subdivision and proposed improvements, including the water park development, were found to be less than significant based on the initial environmental study. The proposed project, as conditioned, will not cause significant environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife in their habitat. The design of the subdivision and the type of improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems. The project, as conditioned by the Fire Prevention Bureau and the Public Works Department, will comply with the applicable improvement requirements. All required improvements, including right-of-ways, drainage and utility improvements, are designed to prevent public health problems. Furthermore, provisions are made in the General Plan and the Development Code to ensure that the public health, safety and welfare are safeguarded. The project is consistent with these documents. The design of the subdivision provides for future passive or natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision to the extent feasible. Prior to issuance of any building permits for the subject parcels, and prior to any construction, the applicant will be required to submit building plans to the City of Temecula Building Department. These plans will be required to comply with all applicable Uniform Building Codes, which also include requirements for energy conservation. Therefore, the design of the subdivision provides opportunity for passive or natural heating and cooling for future projects, including the water park. The design of the subdivision and the type of improvements will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision, or the design of the alternate easements which are substantially equivalent to those previously acquired by the public will be provided. The required right-of-way easements, including Diaz Road and Cherry Street alignments, are included on the Tentative Parcel Map (TPM 36175). The type of improvements required will not conflict with any easements acquired by the public at large for access through, or for use of any property within the proposed subdivision. The subdivision is consistent with the City's parkland dedications requirements (Quimby). The subdivision is consistent with the dedication requirement. Conditional Use Permit. Development Code Section 17.04.010E The proposed Conditional Use Permit is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code. The Public Institutional Facilities (PI) land use designation for the project site provides for a wide range of public and private uses to service the community. Based on the standards contained in the City's General Plan, Development Code, and PDO-10, sports and recreation facilities are permitted with the approval of a Conditional Use Permit. The site is properly planned and zoned, and as conditioned, is physically suitable for the proposed water park. The project, as conditioned, is also consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local Ordinances, including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and all applicable fire and building codes. 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 water park is consistent with the surrounding uses and structures and will not adversely impact existing development because recreational uses already exist in the immediate area and do not conflict with surrounding industrial development. Directly north of the proposed project site is a sports park facility with soccer fields. To the east and south of the project site is Murrieta Creek Channel, including a public recreation trail that runs along Diaz Road within the Business Park area. The General Plan land use designation for the proposed site allows for a range of uses that benefit the community as a whole. In addition, the water park will only be open approximately four months of the calendar year, which will greatly reduce any impacts on businesses in the immediate area resulting from development of the project site. With existing recreational uses already existing in the area and the short term operation season, the water park will not adversely affect adjacent uses or structures. 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 and required by the Planning Commission or City Council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood. The project proposes a water park on a 19.7 acre site. The water park feature area and associated parking lot is approximately 17 acres. The proposed project meets all Development Code regulations in regards to floor area ratio, lot coverage, setbacks, height regulations, and parking requirements therefore the site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the required water park development features. Over thirty percent (3096) of the site will be landscaped, and an approximate 25 foot landscaped setback and buffer area as been provided along Dendy Parkway to soften, screen, and integrate the use. The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the community. The project is in compliance with the Development Code, Universal Building Code (UBC), and Fire Prevention Code requirements. The proposed water park is not detrimental to the heath, safety, or general welfare of the community. In addition, Fire Prevention has reviewed the circulation and drive aisle widths and has determined that the site will be adequately served by the Fire Department in an emergency situation. That the decision to conditionally approve the application for a Conditional Use Permit be based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole before the Planning Commission. The decision to conditionally approve the application has been based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole. Development Plan. Development Code Section 17.05.01 OF 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. The project is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code because the project has been processed and designed in a manner that it is consistent with the applicable policies and standards for development within the Public Institutional Facilities (PI) land use designation and Temecula Education Center Planned Development Overlay (PDO-10) zoning district. The proposed water park is conditionally permitted in the PDO-10 zone. The site is properly planned and zoned, and as conditioned, is physically suitable for the proposed water park. 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. 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, circulation, structure height, setbacks, parking, and other associated site improvements are intended to protect the health and safety of those working and visiting in and around the water park facility. The project is consistent with all applicable policies, guidelines, standards and regulations intended to ensure that the water park development will be constructed, and function in a manner consistent with the public health, safety, and welfare.

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 19, 2009, 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 No. PA09-0040 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 Findings. The Planning Commission, in approving the Application hereby finds, determines and declares that: Tentative Parcel Map (Subdivision Ordinance Section 16.09.140) A. The proposed subdivision and the design and improvements of the subdivision are consistent with the Development Code, General Plan, and the City of Temecula Municipal Code; Tentative Parcel Map No. 36175 is consistent with the General Plan, the Subdivision Ordinance, the Development Code, and Municipal Code because the project has been processed and designed in a manner that is consistent with the policies and standards contained in those documents. B. The Tentative Map does not propose to divide land which is subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965, or the land is subject to a Land Conservation Act contract but the resulting parcels following division of the land will not be too small to sustain agricultural use; The subject parcels do not propose to divide land which is subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965. The subject property has not been designated for conservation or agricultural land, and is not subject to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965. C. The site is physically suitable for the type and proposed density of development proposed by the Tentative Map; The site is physically suitable for the proposed water park development because the proposed Tentative Parcel Map (TPM 36175) meets the minimum lot size requirements contained within the PDO-10 zoning district, and is consistent with all the density requirements of the City of Temecula Subdivision Ordinance. The proposed water park use on Parcel 1 of TPM 36175 is consistent with the land use requirements of the General Plan and the development standards of the Development Code and PDO-10. D. The design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements, with Conditions of Approval are not likely to cause significant environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat; The proposed project site is highly disturbed from grading and surcharging of the site. All potential impacts from the subdivision and proposed improvements, including the water park development, were found to be less than significant based on the initial environmental study. The proposed project, as conditioned, will not cause significant environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife in their habitat. E. The design of the subdivision and the type of improvements are not likely to cause serious public health problems; The project, as conditioned by the Fire Prevention Bureau and the Public Works Department, will comply with the applicable improvement requirements.

Furthermore, provisions are made in the General Plan and the Development Code to ensure that the public health, safety and welfare are safeguarded. The project is consistent with these documents. F. The design of the subdivision provides for future passive or natural heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision to the extent feasible, Prior to issuance of any building permits for the subject parcels, and prior to any construction, the applicant will be required to submit building plans to the City of Temecula Building Department. These plans will be required to comply with all applicable Uniform Building Codes, which also include requirements for energy conservation. Therefore, the design of the subdivision provides opportunity for passive or natural heating and cooling for future projects, including the water park. G. The design of the subdivision and the type of improvements will not conflict with easements acquired by the public at large for access through or use of property within the proposed subdivision, or the design of the alternate easements which are substantially equivalent to those previously acquired by the public will be provided; The required right-of-way easements, including Diaz Road and Cherry Street alignments, are included on the Tentative Parcel Map (TPM 36175). The type of improvements required will not conflict with any easements acquired by the public at large for access through, or for use of any property within the proposed subdivision. H. The subdivision is consistent with the City's parkland dedications requirements (Quimby); The subdivision is consistent with the dedication requirement. Section 3. Environmental Findings. The Planning Commission hereby makes the following environmental findings and determinations in connection with the approval of the Tentative Parcel Map Application: A.

B. Thereafter, City staff provided public notice of the public comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration as required by law. The public comment period commenced on July 28, 2009, and expired on August 16, 2009. Copies of the documents have been available for public review and inspection at the offices of the Department of Planning, located at City Hall 43200 Business Park Drive, Temecula, California 92590. C. No written comments in response to the circulated Mitigated Negative Declaration were received prior to the public hearing. D. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and all comments received regarding the Mitigated Negative Declaration prior to and at the August 19, 2009, public hearing, and based on the whole record before it finds that: (1) the Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared in compliance with CEQA; (2) there is no substantial evidence that the Project will have a significant effect on the environment; and (3) Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the Planning Commission.

Box 9033 Temecula, CA 92589-9033 Dear Ms. Bostre-Le: Subject: DIAZ ROAD IMPROVEMENTS RELATED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO. 36715 (INCLUDING DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR 11 ACRE MULTI-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR 12 ACRE WATER PARK) PORTION OF PARCEL NO. ! OF PARCEL MAP 4646; APN 909-370-002 EMWD staff has recently been in contact with your office to review preliminary information regarding the subject development and potential impacts of proposed Diaz Road improvement on EMWD facilities. Staff reports that an additional 14 feet of fill would occur on Diaz Road for completion of the finish roadway surface elevation in preparation for the future Diaz Road and Cherry Street intersection improvement. EMWD staff understands that the proposed finish roadway surface would integrate with the future Murrieta Creek improvement proposed by the US Army Corps of Engineers and subsequent Cherry Street Bridge improvement by the City of Temecula. To date EMWD has completed relocation of 862 lineal-feet of the Diaz Road 36" diameter gravity sewer pipeline and reinforcement of its 36" diameter recycled water pipeline, as part of the City's prior project to develop an education center at the subject project site. The total project cost to EMWD was $2,583,243. Construction was completed as a change order with the City's contract work with Yeager/Skanska. To complete work per the future Diaz Road and Cherry Street intersection improvement (as currently proposed) would require additional facility relocation and/or reinforcement for an estimated additional expenditure of $1,118,000 (refer to attached cost estimate). Please note that the additional time needed to complete EMWD's work would be approximately two (2) years from time an agreement with the City was reached to proceed. EMWD recognizes that the proposed Diaz road and Cherry Street intersection improvements are pursuant to a future Murrieta Creek improvement by the US Army Corps of Engineers. EMWD also recognizes the uncertainty of the US Army Corps of Engineers' project and subsequent City of Temecula's implementation of the proposed Cherry Street Bridge work. Due to the timing and possibility that EMWD's relocations would later be abandoned with construction of the future Murrieta Creek and bridge improvements, EMWD requests that the City re-consider their proposed project grading and seek Mailing Address: Post Office Box 8300 Perris, CA 92572-8300 Telephone: (951) 928-3777 Fax: (951) 928-6177 Location: 2270 Trumble Road Perris, CA 92570 Internet: www.emwd.ortr ~ 11-1 SINCE 1950:»-' alternatives or perhaps a phased approach to the proposed Diaz Road improvement. As future Murrieta Creek and/or the subsequent City of Temecula's Cherry Street Bridge improvements became certain, then a plan to relocate EMWD facilities would be developed without creating additional stranded capital.

Such items of concern are listed as follows: 1. Site encroachment and impacts to RCWD Well No. 101 located at the southeast corner of Diaz Road and Cherry Street. 2. Site encroachment and access to RCWD property, generally located west of Murrieta Creek and north of Cherry Street. 3. Misalignment of Diaz Road right-of-way dedication at the boundary of the City of Temecula and City of Murrieta. Pursuant to the meeting of February 27, 2009, with staff present from the City of Temecula, City of Murrieta, and Rancho California Water District, RCWD understands that such items of concern will be addressed and resolved through additional (near-term) discussions and/or meetings with appropriate stakeholders.

Subsequent to the meeting and discussion of May 27, 2009, RCWD also reviewed the City's proposed Diaz Road and Cherry Street improvement plans to better define and quantify RCWD's facility impacts. As currently designed, the City's proposed roadway improvements negatively impact several RCWD facilities residing within or adjacent to Diaz Road and Cherry Street. The City's proposed increase to the roadway finish surface (up to 14 additional feet at the intersection of Diaz Road and Cherry Street) will cause the relocation of RCWD's buried pipelines and appurtenant facilities within the Diaz Road corridor. As a result of the substantial increase to the depth of cover, RCWD's buried facilities would be subject to detrimental soil loads and/or inaccessibility issues for repair or maintenance activities. In addition, the City's proposed increase to roadway width (coupled with the increase to roadway finish surface) will cause the need to relocate RCWD's Well No. 101, which is presently located at the southeast corner of Diaz Road and Cherry Street. As designed, roadway improvements will substantially encroach into the Well No. 101 site, causing site access and operational problems, as well as non-conformance with the California Department of Public Health requirements affecting the well (site) configuration. RCWD facility relocations are depicted on the enclosed Budgetary Cost Estimate, with total relocation project costs estimated at just under $3.94 million. It is estimated that RCWD facility relocations outside of the City limits will comprise 5.6% of the total cost, while facility relocations within the City limits will comprise 94.4% of the total cost. Anticipated facility relocations are sizable in both cost magnitude and resource requirements; thus, the design and construction duration of such facility relocations is estimated to be two years.

With acknowledged uncertainty as to project timing and specific design parameters of the Murrieta Creek Improvements and the Cherry Street Bridge, it seems untimely for the City to construct ultimate roadway improvements to Diaz Road and Cherry Street, fronting the subject City project/property. Thus, RCWD respectfully requests that the City reconsider the scope of proposed roadway improvements to Diaz Road and Cherry Street fronting the subject City project/property due to the burden of noted RCWD facility impacts. Alternatively, RCWD requests that the City consider interim roadway improvements that would match existing road surface grades and the reduced roadway width, so as to greatly diminish (or eliminate) the need to relocate RCWD facilities. Interim roadway improvements would be in place until the future Murrieta Creek Improvements and/or the future Cherry Street Bridge project(s) proceed and ultimate conditions are more clearly defined.

Procedural Findings. The Planning Commission of the City of Temecula does hereby find, determine and declare that: A. On February 5, 2009, Clearwater Development filed Planning Application No. PA09-0041, a Conditional Use Permit Application 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 19, 2009, 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 No. PA09-0041 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 Findings. The Planning Commission, in approving the Application hereby finds, determines and declares that: Conditional Use Permit (Development Code Section 17.04.010E) 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; The Public Institutional Facilities (PI) land use designation for the project site provides for a wide range of public and private uses to service the community. Based on the standards contained in the City's General Plan, Development Code, PDO-10, sports and recreation facilities are permitted with the approval of a Conditional Use Permit. The site is properly planned and zoned, and as conditioned, is physically suitable for the proposed water park. The project, as conditioned, is also consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local Ordinances, including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and all applicable fire and building codes. B. 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 water park is consistent with the surrounding uses and structures and will not adversely impact existing development because recreational uses already exist in the immediate area and do not conflict with surrounding industrial development. Directly north of the proposed project site is a sports park facility with soccer fields. To the east and south of the project site is Murrieta Creek Channel, including a public recreation trail that runs along Diaz Road within the Business Park area. The General Plan land use designation for the proposed site allows for a range of uses that benefit the community as a whole. In addition, the water park will only be open approximately four months of the calendar year, which will greatly reduce any impacts on businesses in the immediate area resulting from development of the project site. With existing recreational uses already existing in the area and the short term operation season, the water park will not adversely affect adjacent uses or structures. C. 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 and required by the Planning Commission or City Council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood; The project proposes a water park on a 19.7 acre site. The water park feature area and associated parking lot is approximately 17 acres. The proposed project meets all Development Code regulations in regards to floor area ratio, lot coverage, setbacks, height regulations, and parking requirements, therefore the site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the required water park development features. Over thirty percent (30%) of the site will be landscaped, and an approximate 25 foot landscaped setback and buffer area as been provided along Dendy Parkway to soften, screen, and integrate the use. D. The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the community; The project is in compliance with the Development Code, Universal Building Code (UBC), and Fire Prevention Code requirements. The proposed water park is not detrimental to the heath, safety, or general welfare of the community. In addition, the circulation and drive aisle widths will be adequate to provide access for the Fire Department in an emergency situation. E. That the decision to conditionally approve the application for a Conditional Use Permit be based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole before the Planning Commission; The decision to conditionally approve the application has been based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole. Development Plan (Development Code Section 17.05.010F) F. 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; The project is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code because the project has been processed and designed in a manner that it is consistent with the applicable policies and standards for development within the Public Institutional Facilities (PI) land use designation and Temecula Education Center Planned Development Overlay (PDO-10) zoning district. The proposed water park is conditionally permitted in the PDO-10 zone. The site is properly planned and zoned, and as conditioned, is physically suitable for the proposed water park. 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. G. 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, circulation, structure height, setbacks, parking, and other associated site improvements are intended to protect the health and safety of those working and visiting in and around the water park facility. The project is consistent with all applicable policies, guidelines, standards and regulations intended to ensure that the water park development will be constructed, and function in a manner consistent with the public health, safety, and welfare. Section 3. Environmental Findings. The Planning Commission hereby makes the following environmental findings and determinations in connection with the approval of the Conditional Use Permit Application, A. Pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA), an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects of the approval of the Conditional Use Permit Application, as described in the Initial Study ("the Project") has been prepared for the project. Based upon the findings contained in the Initial Study, there is no substantial evidence that the Project will have a significant effect on the environment and a Mitigated Negative Declaration has been prepared. B. Thereafter, City staff provided public notice of the public comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration as required by law. The public comment period commenced on July 28, 2009, and expired on August 16, 2009. Copies of the documents have been available for public review and inspection at the offices of the Department of Planning, located at City Hall 43200 Business Park Drive, Temecula, California 92590. C. No written comments in response to the circulated Mitigated Negative Declaration were received prior to the public hearing. D. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and all comments received regarding the (Mitigated) Negative Declaration prior to and at the August 19, 2009, public hearing, and based on the whole record before it finds that: (1) the Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared in compliance with CEQA; (2) there is no substantial evidence that the Project will have a significant effect on the environment; and (3) Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent judgment and analysis of the Planning Commission. E. Based on the findings set forth in the Resolution, the Planning Commission hereby adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration prepared for this project. Section 4. Conditions.

If the business becomes a victim of check fraud, the Police Department will be able to track the suspect with the thumbprint. PD-24. Crime prevention through environmental design as developed by the National Crime Prevention Institute (NCPI) supports the concept that "the proper design and effective use of the built environment can lead to a reduction in the fear and incidence of crime and an improvement in the quality of life." The nine primary strategies that support this concept are included as conditions below: a. Provide clear border definition of controlled space. Examples of border definition may include fences, shrubbery or signs in exterior areas. Within a building, the arrangement of furniture and color definition can serve as a means of identifying controlled space. b. Provide clearly marked transitional zones. Persons need to be able to identify when they are moving from public to semi-public to private space. c. Gathering or congregating areas to be located or designated in locations where there is good surveillance and access control. d. Place safe activities in unsafe locations. Safe activities attract normal users to a location and subsequently render the location less attractive to abnormal users due to observation and possible intervention. Place unsafe activities in safe locations. Placing unsafe activities in areas of natural surveillance or controlled access will help overcome risk and make the users of the areas feel safer. Redesign the use of space to provide natural barriers. Separate activities that may conflict with each other (outdoor basketball court and children's play area, for example) by distance, natural terrain or other functions to avoid such conflict. Improve scheduling of space. The timing in the use of space can reduce the risk for normal users and cause abnormal users to be of greater risk of surveillance and intervention. Redesign space to increase the perception of natural surveillance. Abnormal users need to be award of the risk of detection and possible intervention. Windows and clear lines-of-sight serve to provide such a perception of surveillance. Overcome distance and isolation. This strategy may be accomplished through improved communications (portable two-way radios, for example) and design efficiencies, such as the location of restrooms in a public building.

Surrounding Land Uses and Setting An unpaved portion of Diaz Road and Murrieta Creek channel are located on the northeast boundary of the property. The property to the north is owned by Rancho California Water District (RCWD) and is used for reclaimed water storage. Land to the south is developed with light industrial warehouse and manufacturing uses. Land to the west consists of a graded pad for future development. West of this pad is a newly constructed industrial warehouse for Professional Hospital Supply. (See Attachment B) Disturbed grassland and bare ground occupies the whole project site which is highly disturbed from grading and surcharging of the site. Other public agencies whose approval The only other public agency whose approval is required for the is required development of this site is: a Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA) with the City of Temecula Redevelopment Agency. Environmental Factors Potentially Affected The environmental factors checked below would be potentially affected by this project, involving at least one impact that is a "Potentially Significant Impact" as indicated by the checklist on the following pages. Aesthetics Mineral Resources Agriculture Resources ✓ Noise ✓ Air Quality Population and Housing Biological Resources Public Services ✓ Cultural Resources Recreation ✓ Geology and Soils ✓ Trans ortation/Traffic Hazards and Hazardous Materials Utties and Service Systems Hydrology and Water Quality Mandatory Findings of Significance Land Use and Planning None Determination (To be completed by the lead agency) On the basis of this initial evaluation: I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not ✓ be a significant effect in this case because revisions in the project have been made by or agreed to by the project proponent. A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required. I find that the proposed project MAY have a "potentially significant impact" or "potentially significant unless mitigated" impact on the environment, but at least one effect 1) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards, and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on attached sheets. An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the effects that remain to be addressed. I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, because all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed adequately in an earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION pursuant to applicable standards, and (b) have been avoided or mitigated pursuant to that earlier EIR or NEGATIVE DECLARATION, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the proposed project, nothing further is required.

Would the project: Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Issues and Supporting Information Sources Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? ✓ b Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not ✓ limited to, trees, rock outcroppings, and historic buildings within a state scenic highway? c Substantially degrade the existing visual character or quality ✓ of the site and its surroundings? d Create a new source of substantial light or glare which would ✓ adverse) affect day or nighttime views in the area? Comments: 1.a. Less than Significant Impact. The project site is located within an urbanized area near a scenic open space hillside to the west. The entire 35 acres is currently undeveloped land. Implementation of the proposed project would convert a vacant site into a 15-acre water park with supporting parking facilities and landscaping. The development will be partially visible to traffic traveling northbound and southbound on Interstate 15. The location and elevation of the proposed water park, specifically the water slides and amusement rides, will partially block visibility of the scenic hillside. However, the project will not substantially affect the existing character of the developed industrial area. Section 17.08.070 of the City Development Code provides performance standards and criteria for the design of commercial/office/industrial development within the City, recognizing that the quality and compatibility of design directly impacts the health, safety and welfare of the residents of the community. These performance standards include strategies for minimizing visual impacts of development through a variety of design elements. The proposed project is also required to comply with height restrictions and landscape standards contained in the Development Code. The maximum building height in the PDO-10 zone is 40 feet and a minimum of 25 percent of the site shall be landscaped. Quality landscaping will help soften and screen any visual impacts from development. In addition, the General Plan Community Design Element implements hillside grading and site design requirements that help to preserve the integrity of natural slopes. Based on fulfilling these City standards, visual and aesthetic impacts from this project are anticipated to be less than significant. 1.b. No Impact: The project site does not have any major scenic resources, including trees, rock outcroppings, or historic buildings which exist on the project site. The proposed project is not located on or near a scenic highway. There will be no impact to any scenic resources from the proposed facility. 1.c. Less than Significant Impact. The whole 35-acre project site has been previously graded. In its current undeveloped and unimproved state, the site has low visual quality. Implementation of the proposed project will alter the visual character of the site; however, the proposed development is designed to minimize detrimental impacts on surrounding properties, including, but not limited to, visual, noise, air quality and other environmental impacts through landscaping and design strategies. By screening circulation areas, loading areas, trash collection points, and other areas that could potentially degrade the character of the adjacent area, impacts to the visual character or quality of the industrial park area are anticipated to be less than significant. 1.d. Less than Significant Impact. The business park lighting, and parking lot and street lighting would be typical of other development in the surrounding area and would not create unusual levels of light and glare. The proposed project will be developed consistent with the standards established in the City's Development Code, Section 17.24.050.F which states that, "lighting of outdoor parking areas shall be designed and maintained in a manner to prevent glare or direct illumination from intruding into... [adjacent properties]." The proposed project lighting design and landscaping will assist in minimizing the effects of increased light and glare in that the lighting on the site will be shielded and directed downward, and landscaping will help to screen exterior building light. Development associated with the proposed project will also be consistent with Ordinance No. 655 (Ordinance Regulating Light Pollution), which includes lighting standards to avoid negative impacts on astronomical research at Mount Palomar Observatory. The lighting standards of Ordinance No. 655 include provisions for restricting the light source, light projection, hours of light operation and outdoor displays areas for all projects within a 45 mile radius of Mount Palomar Observatory. Impacts on the Observatory are anticipated to be less than significant. 2. AGRICULTURE RESOURCES. In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the California Agricultural Land Evaluation and Site Assessment Model (1997) prepared by the California Dept. of Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts on agriculture and farmland. Would the project: Potentially..: Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Issues and Supporting Infonnaon Sources Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact ` Incorporated Impact Impact a Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland of ✓ Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency, to non-agricultural use? b Conflict with existing zoning for agricultural use, or a ✓ Williamson Act contract? c Involve other changes in the existing environment which, ✓ due to their location or nature, could result in conversion of Farmland, to non-agricultural use? Comments: 2.a. Less than Significant Impact. According to Figure 5.2-1 labeled "Agricultural Resources" in the Agricultural Resources, Section OS-30 of the General Plan, the project is in an area of farmland of local importance. However, the project site is surrounded by industrial development and there are no other immediate properties in the vicinity of the project which have been allocated for farmland use. The subject site is not currently being used for agricultural purposes, and the City's General Plan Land Use Element has designated the site for Public Institutional Facilities uses. Therefore, there will be less than significant impacts as a result of the project. 2.b-c. No Impact. The site is not under a Williamson Act contract nor is it zoned for agricultural uses. This property is not considered prime farmland or farmland of Statewide importance as identified by the State Department of Conservation. Though the City of Temecula General Plan does identify the site as being farmland of local importance, the site is not currently being used for agricultural purposes nor has it been used recently for agriculture. Therefore, the project will not involve changes in the existing environment, which would result in the conversion of farmland to non-agricultural uses. No impact is anticipated as a result of the proposed project. 3. AIR QUALITY. Where available, the significance criteria established by the applicable air quality management or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the following determinations. Would the project: Potentially Potentially Significant Unless'. Less Than :Issues and Supporting Information Sources Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable ✓ air quality plan? b Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially ✓ to an existing or projected air quality violation? c Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any ✓ criteria pollutant for which the project region is non- attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors)? d Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant ✓ concentrations? e Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number ✓ of people? Comments: 3.a. No Impact. An Air Quality Impact Analysis Report was prepared by Michael Brandman Associates dated August 21, 2006. The proposed project will not conflict or obstruct the implementation of the Air Quality Management Plan for the South Coast Air Basin. Furthermore, the project will comply with the provisions of the Plan and the City's General Plan Air Quality Element policies and goals. As a result, no adverse impacts are forecast and no mitigation is required. 3.b-c. Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated. Some short term construction-related air quality impacts are expected to occur as a result of this project. These short term impacts are expected to occur from onsite grading activities and from the actual construction of the project. The potential air quality impacts of this project were assessed using the Air Quality Management District's URBEMIS 2002 model. Short-term emissions were evaluated with the URBEMIS 2002 for Windows computer program. The URBEMIS 2002 model sets default values for worker trips and the use of asphalt. For the purpose of this analysis as a worst-case scenario, it is assumed that painting and asphalt paving would occur simultaneous with building activities. Model inputs for this type of land use evaluated site grading, construction period, and asphalt paving. When these emissions projections are compared with the SCAQMD thresholds for significance, it is shown that emissions exceed the applicable thresholds for NOx. The primary source of NOx is heavy equipment. In an effort to reduce estimated NOx emissions related to construction activities, a range of mitigation measures were considered. Effective NOx emission reduction measures include the use of construction equipment with lean NOx oxidation catalyst and/or reduction in equipment horsepower hours per day, providing temporary traffic control (e.g., flag person) during transport activities, properly maintaining construction equipment, prohibit truck and equipment idling in excess of ten minutes, provide on-site meals during lunch to construction workers by arranging to have a lunch wagon visit the site during work breaks, and use temporary electric power for electric power tools. The short-term emissions for this type of proposed land use are below the all applicable SCAQMD suggested thresholds with construction phase mitigation measures imposed. When emissions projections are compared with the SCAQMD suggested thresholds for significance, it is shown that long-term emissions for this type of proposed land use are below all the applicable thresholds. Carbon monoxide (CO) is a localized problem requiring additional analysis beyond total project emissions quantification. Projects with sensitive receptors or projects that could negatively impact levels of service (LOS) of existing roads need to use the "California Department of Transportation Carbon Monoxide Protocol" (hereafter referred to as the CO protocol) to determine the potential to create a CO hot spot. A CO hot spot is a localized concentration of CO that is above the State or Federal one-hour or eight-hour ambient air standards. Localized high levels of CO are associated with traffic congestion and idling or slow-moving vehicles. The CO protocol recommends using CALINE4, the fourth generation California Line Source Roadway Dispersion Model developed by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), to estimate one-hour CO concentrations from roadway traffic. Input data for this model includes meteorology, street network geometrics, traffic information, and emissions generation rates. Meteorological data required includes average temperatures, wind direction, sigma theta (standard deviation of wind direction), and wind speed. Street network geometrics require the use of an x, y coordinate system onto which the modeled roadways can be overlain in order to identify the relative. According to the CO protocol, the CALINE4 model should simulate intersections by using a reduced speed to represent intersection speeds and waits. Therefore, the slowing speed approaching an intersection was calculated at an average speed of five miles per hour (mph) within 249 feet. This value was derived by calculating the time it would take for a vehicle to slow from 28 mph at a rate of 4.6 mph/second and doubling this distance to account for any vehicles which have already stopped at the intersection. Vehicles outside of the 249-foot intersection approaches were assumed to be at a cruise speed of 28 mph as directed by the CO protocol for suburban traffic. The peak hour traffic volumes, when the worst-case LOS value occurred at each intersection, were used in this analysis because they represent the highest traffic volumes for both the project area and the proposed project. Typically, the LOS at an intersection producing a hot spot is at D or worse during the peak hour. The following intersections meet this criterion: • Winchester Road at Jefferson Avenue • Winchester Road at 1-15 NB and SIB Ramps • Winchester Road at Ynez Road • Winchester Road at Promenade Mall East Driveway • Ynez Road at Overland Winchester Road at Margarita The model procedure that was followed combined the results of the traffic analysis assuming very restrictive dispersion conditions in order to generate a worst-case impact assessment. Output from the CALINE4 model is in one-hour CO concentrations in ppm at the selected receptor locations. The predicted one-hour CO concentrations were determined by adding the ambient background one-hour CO concentrations to the model projected one-hour CO concentration. The eight-hour CO concentration was estimated by multiplying the one- hour model estimate by the persistence factor for the project area (0.6) and adding the ambient background eight-hour CO concentration. Assuming worst-case conditions, the estimated one-hour and eight-hour average CO concentrations in combination with background concentrations are below the State and Federal ambient air quality standards. No CO hot spots are anticipated as a result of traffic generated emissions by the proposed project in combination with other anticipated development in the area. The AQMP contains performance standards and emissions reduction targets necessary to attain the state and federal air quality standards. The AQMP control measures and related emission reduction estimates are based upon emissions projections for a future development scenario derived from land use, population, and employment characteristics defined in consultation with local governments. Accordingly, conformance with the AQMP for development projects is determined by demonstrating that vehicle miles traveled (VMT) during operation of the proposed project is at or below what would be generated from the land use, population and employment characteristics contemplated in the AQMP. The VMT generated by the proposed project is lower than what was contemplated in the AQMP. For this reason, it is appropriate to conclude that the proposed project is in compliance with the AQMP and there will be less than significant impacts with implementation of the following mitigation measures. Mitigation M1. Prior to construction of the proposed improvements, the project proponent will provide a traffic control plan that will describe safe detours around the project construction site and provide temporary traffic control (i.e., flag person) during construction related truck hauling activities. M2. During construction of the proposed improvements, construction equipment will be properly maintained at an offsite location and includes proper tuning and timing of engines. Equipment maintenance records and equipment design specification data sheets shall be kept onsite during construction. M3. During construction of the proposed improvements, all contractors will be required not to idle construction equipment on site for more than 10 minutes. M4. During construction of the proposed improvements, the project applicant will make arrangements to ensure on-site meals are available to construction workers by arranging a lunch wagon to visit the construction site during work breaks including the lunch break. M5. Prior to construction of the proposed improvements, the project proponent will provide a Dust Control Plan that will describe the application of standard best management practices to control dust during construction. Best management practices will include: • Application of water on disturbed soils and unpaved roadways a minimum of three times per day • Using track-out prevention devices at construction site access points • Stabilizing construction area exit points • Covering haul vehicles • Restricting vehicle speeds on unpaved roads to 15 miles per hour (mph) • Replanting disturbed areas as soon as practical and other measures, as deemed appropriate to the site, to control fugitive dust 3.d. Less Than Significant Impact: Sensitive receptors include the very young, elderly, and persons suffering from illness and are normally associated with locations such as schools, daycare facilities, convalescent care facilities, medical facilities, and residential areas. Diesel emissions during the short-term construction activities are too low to pose an acute significant toxic air contaminant health hazard and they will not occur over the long-term. As a result, no significant impacts are expected with this project. With no significant potential exposure to toxic substances or to CO "Hotspots", the proposed project is not forecast to expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant concentrations that would be considered significant and adverse or exceed air quality significance thresholds with the inclusion of the identified mitigation measures. 3.e. Less Than Significant Impact. During construction, the proposed project will contain operations that will produce odors associated with equipment and materials. The site is not located within the vicinity of sensitive receptors and the odors associated with this type project are normally not considered so offensive as to cause sensitive receptors to complain. Diesel fuel combustion odors from construction equipment, operation equipment, and new asphalt paving fall into this category. Both based on the short-term of the emissions and the characteristics of these emissions, no significant odor impacts will result from implementing the proposed project. 4. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES.

Comments: 4.a-c. Less Than Significant Impact. A general biological survey conducted by Tom Dodson & Associates in 2005 for the project site indicated that the project site is a completely unvegetated, heavily disturbed parcel of land. No suitable habitat for any state or federally listed threatened or endangered species was found on the project site. No threatened or endangered species, including Quino Checkerspot Butterflies (QCB), Stephen's Kangaroo Rat (Dipodomys Stephensf), or California Gnatcatchers (CAGN) were identified on the property. The project is located within the Riverside County Stephens's Kangaroo Rat Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) Fee Assessment Area. Habitat Conservation fees are required to offset the effect of cumulative impacts to the species from urbanization occurring throughout western Riverside County and the project will be conditioned to pay this fee (Draft Environmental Impact Report for the Temecula Education Center prepared by Tom Dodson & Associates in November 2003). The project is within the Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Program (MSHCP) Burrowing Owl (Athene Cunicularia) Survey Area. Focused Burrowing Owl surveys were conducted in 2005 and 2006 in accordance with the Burrowing Owl Survey Instructions for the Western Riverside Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan Area. In 2005, the survey concluded that the site appears to be a large disturbed site. One burrowing owl was observed during the survey; however, extensive ponding precluded most of the site from being suitable habitat at that time (Focused Burrowing Owl Survey prepared by Tom Dodson & Associates in January 2005). In 2006, the Pre-construction Burrowing Owl Survey prepared by LSA Associates on May 11, 2006, concluded that no burrowing owls were observed on the property; however, the property contained suitable habitat in the western, southwestern, and southernmost portions of the project site. Therefore, a pre-construction burrowing survey is required within 30 days prior to ground disturbance by the project. If any burrowing owl is found on site, the CDFG shall be consulted, and a passive relocation effort shall be undertaken outside of the nesting season. No disturbance of active nests will occur. The project will not impact jurisdictional habitat (ephemeral drainage, non-wetland waters of the U.S or California Department of Fish & Game (CDFG) jurisdictional habitat. A Determination of Biologically Equivalent or Superior Preservation (DBESP) analysis was conducted for the site in January 2006 in compliance with the MSHCP and for unavoidable impacts to approximately 0.10 acres of area supported by fairy shrimp. The ponded areas on site were shallow depressions caused by previous uses such as motor- cross events, equestrian uses, and tractor events that compacted the soils. The ponded areas were characterized as unvegetated or as supporting non-native grasses. They did not have soils or support vegetation associated with vernal pool complexes. Conservation of these pools did not occur because the site did not have long term conservation value and relocation of the fairy shrimp was considered biologically superior to on site avoidance. However, it was ultimately determined by the US Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS) that the City of Temecula would contribute $86,000 to an in lieu fee program. In a written response letter to the DBESP, dated April 14, 2006, FWS indicated that contribution to an in lieu fee program would replace the off site creation project originally proposed by the City to offset impacts to fairy shrimp habitat. According to the RCA Joint Project Review (JPR) conducted in 2006, no riparian or wetland resources occur on the project site. Therefore, no suitable habitat for the least Bell's vireo, southwestern willow flycatcher, or yellow-billed cuckoo is present onsite. Implementation of the project would not therefore cause a substantial adverse effect, either directly or through habitat modifications, on any species identified as a candidate, sensitive, or special status species in local or regional plans, policies, or regulations, or by the California Department of Fish and Game or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and project impacts are anticipated to be less than significant. 4.d.,f. Less than Significant Impact. On May 4, 2006, a complete Habitat Acquisition and Negotiation Strategy (HANS) Application and Analysis for the proposed project site was submitted and provided to the Riverside Conservation Agency (RCA) for review. The property is located within Independent Criteria Cells 6781 Subunit 6 (Santa Rosa Plateau) and 6782 of Subunit 1 (Murrieta Creek) of the Southwest Area Plan. The project site falls within Proposed Constrained Linkage 13 (Murrieta Creek) and is therefore identified for conservation under the MSHCP. According to the MSHCP, conservation within Cell 6781 will range from 35 to 45 percent, focusing in the Cell's southwestern portion. Conservation within Cell 6782 will focus on the Murrieta Creek channel and adjacent grassland habitat. The proposed development of Parcel 1 lies within the northeastern portion of Cell 6781 and the northwestern half of Cell 6782. The parcel has already been graded and contains no biological resources or any habitat suitable to support any MSHCP-covered species. Furthermore, the subject parcel is currently bordered by developed property to the north, south and west and would not function as a wildlife corridor. According to the JPR report completed in 2006, development of the site will not result in direct impacts to Murrieta Creek as Diaz Road provides an eastern barrier between the project site and the creek area intended for MSHCP conservation. The JPR also concluded that development of this site would not conflict with the Reserve Assembly in this area. The proposed project will not therefore interfere substantially with the movement of any native resident or migratory fish or wildlife species or with established native resident or migratory wildlife corridors, or impede the use of native wildlife nursery sites and impacts are anticipated to be less than significant. The proposed project will be in full conformance with Section 6.3.2 of the MSHCP (Database Updates/Additional Survey Requirements). The site is not within the MSHCP's Critical Area Species Survey Area (CASSA) for plant species and none were observed on site. The only focused animal survey required on the site for sensitive animal species is for the burrowing owl. Focused burrowing owl surveys were conducted in 2006 and a pre-construction burrowing owl survey is required 30 days prior to commencement of construction. If any burrowing owl is found on site, the CDFG shall be consulted, and a passive relocation effort shall be undertaken outside of the nesting season. No disturbance of active nests will occur and impacts are anticipated to be less than significant. 4.e. No Impact. The proposed project will not conflict with any local policies or ordinances protecting biological resources, such as a tree preservation policy or ordinance. No impact is anticipated as a result of the proposed project. 5. CULTURAL RESOURCES.

Comments: 5.a-b,d. Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated. The City of Temecula General Plan (April 12, 2005) does not identify the project site as a sensitive archaeological resource area. However, the proposed project is located on a piece of property known to contain a portion of an archaeological site designated CA-RIV-237 (Draft Environmental Impact Report for the Temecula Education Complex Project, Tom Dodson & Associates, November 2003). CA-RIV-237 is a sacred area known to contain cultural resources. Based on this research and the proximity of the site to reliable water, ecozones, and a wide viewshed, the project is known as a favorable settlement area and highly culturally significant. The proposed project site has an extensive history which included numerous archaeological surveys, excavations, mass grading, and trenching over many years. The site has also been extensively damaged from past activities including motor sports and rodeo facilities. A Phase II archaeological test excavation was conducted on the property by Christopher E. Dover, Gary S. Hurd and Henry C. Koerper in 1993. The study indicated that there were identified resources that encroached on the western portion of the site, but do not extend over the entire property. In 2003, the potential for cultural resources on site was again evaluated and analyzed in an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Temecula Education Complex project. The EIR evaluation of cultural resource impacts determined that the site may contain significant historical resources that would be adversely impacted by development. Excavation, collection, analysis and preservation of CA-RIV-237 remaining resources which may occur on the project site was considered adequate mitigation to reduce potential impacts to a less than significant level. With implementation of several mitigation measures it was concluded that the proposed Temecula Education Complex project would have no foreseeable effect to CA-RIV-237 as a historical resource. Due to the highly cultural significance of the area, previous consultation has occurred between The Pechanga Band of Luiseiio Indians ('Tribe") and virtually all property owners of the subject site. The consultations have resulted in certain agreements with the Tribe concerning the site. Of particular importance is the set aside of a portion of the culturally significant area in open space easement for purposes of preservation in perpetuity. In addition, mitigation measures from the Final EIR for the Temecula Education Complex shall be carried over to this project. Due to the fact that construction projects in the area have identified significant archaeological sites during earthmoving activities and based on findings from many cultural assessments, the project has potential to cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical or archeological resource as defined in Section 15064, and to disturb any human remains, including those interred outside of formal cemeteries. The following mitigation shall be required as part of the mitigation monitoring program to ensure proper treatment and disposition of any unknown cultural resources that may be inadvertently discovered during further excavation activities. The impacts to cultural resources will be reduced to a less than significant level with implementation, monitoring, and enforcement of the following mitigation measures. Mitigation M6. Mitigation measures 5.5-2, 5.5-3, 5.5-4, 5.5-5 from the Final EIR for the Temecula Education Complex Project (March 2004) shall apply to this project. 5.5-2: The City shall require the developer to implement a mitigation plan for cultural resources. The scope and extent of the mitigation plan shall be determined by consultation between City staff, Pechanga Band of Luiseno Mission Indians representatives, and the archaeological consultant for the project. 5.5-3: The City shall require that site grading be monitored by a qualified archaeologist. Tribal monitors designated by the Pechanga Band of Luiseno Mission Indians shall also monitor site grading if required by the tribe. The monitors shall have the authority to halt and relocate construction activities if subsurfaces resources are encountered. Pechanga Tribal monitors will be allowed to monitor all archaeological surveys, tests and studies. The results of the surveys, tests and/or studies will be utilized to define what areas may require avoidance on the site and the specifics of how any recovered artifacts shall be managed with the Tribe, as mutually agreed upon by the City and its technical staff. 5.5-4: Prior to issuance of a grading permit, the project developer shall enter into an Agreement with the Pechanga Band of Luiseno Mission Indians that addresses the treatment and disposition of all cultural resources and human remains that may be impacted as a result of this development. • 5.5-5: The City and site developer agree to relinquish ownership of all cultural resources, including all archeological artifacts that are found on the project site, to the Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians for proper treatment and disposition. M7. Prior to the issuance of grading permits, the project proponent shall enter into a Treatment Agreement with the Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians. This agreement will address the treatment and disposition of cultural resources and human remains that may be uncovered during construction as well as provisions for tribal monitors. M8. Tribal monitors from the Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians shall be allowed to monitor all grading, excavation and ground-breaking activities, including further surveys, to be compensated by the project proponent. The Pechanga Tribal monitors shall have the authority to temporarily stop and redirect grading activities to evaluate the significance of any archaeological resources discovered on the property, in conjunction with the archeologist and the Lead Agency. M9. A qualified archaeologist monitor shall be present during all earthmoving activities. The monitor shall be empowered to temporarily halt or redirect construction work in the vicinity of the find until it can be evaluated by the project archaeologist in conjunction with the Pechanga Tribe. In the event of a new find, further testing, excavation, and/or reporting may be required. M10. If human remains are encountered, all activity shall cease and the County Coroner must be notified immediately. State Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 state that no further disturbance shall occur until the County Coroner has made a determination of the origin and until treatment pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98 has been decided. The Coroner shall determine if the remains are prehistoric, and shall notify the State Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) if applicable. Further actions shall be determined pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. M11. If inadvertent discoveries of subsurface archaeological/cultural resources are discovered during grading, the City, the Project applicant and the Tribe shall assess the significance of such resources and shall meet and confer regarding the mitigation for such resources. If the Project applicant and the Tribe cannot agree on the significance or the mitigation for such resources, these issues will be presented to the City of Temecula Director of Planning and Redevelopment for decision. The City of Temecula Director of Planning and Redevelopment shall make determination based on the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) with respect to archaeological resources and shall take into account the religious beliefs, customs, and practices of the Tribe. Notwithstanding any other rights available under the law, the decision of the Director of Planning and Redevelopment shall be appealable to the City Council. M12. The landowner shall agree to relinquish ownership of all cultural resources, including all Luiseho sacred items, burial goods and all archeological artifacts that are found on the project site to the Pechanga Band of Luiseho Indians for proper treatment and disposition. M13. All sacred sites within the project area are to be avoided and preserved. M14. The approximate 1.8 acre area of cultural site CA-RIV-237 located in the northwest corner of Planning Application Nos. PA09-0040 and PA09-0041 shall be preserved in Open Space and recorded with the County Recorder of Riverside County as a conservation easement for preservation purposed in perpetuity. Prior to the issuance of grading permits, the City and the Tribe will develop an accurate legal description of the area to be avoided for use in recording the Open Space and conservation easement. The 1.8 acres of CA-RIV 237 shall not be subject to development, archeological testing or ground- disturbing activities. 5.c. Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated. The City of Temecula General Plan (April 12, 2005) identifies the western portion of the project site as a highly sensitive paleontological resource area. Based on the information provided in all previous assessments, potential impacts to paleontological resources does exist and can be reduced to a less than significant level with the incorporation of following mitigation. The impacts to paleontological resources will be reduced to a less than significant level with implementation, monitoring, and enforcement of the following mitigation measures. Mitigation M15. All impacts to the sandstone and fanglomerate members of the Pauba Formation shall be monitored full time at the beginning of grading. A trained paleontological monitor shall be present during ground disturbing activities within the project area determined likely to contain paleontological resources. Monitoring will be adjusted to spot checking if initial monitoring shows negative results. M16. Upon encountering any significant fossils, salvage of all fossils in the area shall be conducted with additional field staff and in accordance with modern paleontological techniques. M17. Any significant fossils recovered shall be prepared to a reasonable point of identification. Excess sediment or matrix will be removed from the specimens to reduce the bulk and cost of storage. Itemized catalogs of all material collected and identified shall be provided to a museum repository along with the specimens. M18. Prior to the issuance of a grading permit, a report documenting the results of the monitoring and any salvage activities and the significance of the fossils shall be prepared. M19. Any significant fossils recovered, along with the itemized inventory of the specimens, shall be deposited in a museum repository for permanent curation and storage. 6. GEOLOGY AND SOILS.

Comments: 6.a-d. Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated: According to the City of Temecula General Plan (April 12, 2005) and the Riverside County Geologist, approximately one-quarter of the western portion of the project site is located in the Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zone. The site is a likely area to be damaged as the result of ground shaking generated by nearby earthquakes and mitigation is required to reduce the risk of loss, injury, or death. It is anticipated that major earthquake groundshaking will occur during the lifetime of the proposed from the seismically active fault. As identified in the General Plan Safety Element, the project site is located within a subsidence, liquefaction, and expansive soil area. The project site therefore has the potential to experience secondary significant effects of seismic activity, including liquefaction, landsliding, and ground subsidence. The City of Temecula has adopted the California Building Code to insure structure integrity during seismic and other hazardous events, and to prevent personal injury, loss of life, and substantial property damage. Implementation of local building codes shall minimize the structural damage and risk associated with seismic events to a less than significant level of impact. Mitigation M20. Seismically resistant structural design in accordance with local building ordinances shall be followed during the design of all structures. M21. Prior to the issuance of any grading and building permit, the recommendations contained in soils report(s) and geotechnical report shall be implemented. 6.e. Less Than Significant Impact: The majority of the site is relatively flat. No landslides have been observed on the property. The lack of observed landslides within the project area and the low vertical relief of the site would indicate a low potential for being exposed to significant landslide hazards. Therefore, development of the site would result in a less than significant impact. 6.f. Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated: While most of the project site has been previously graded it is still currently vacant and undeveloped and has the potential to result in erosion of soils and downstream sedimentation due to construction activities. Tentative Map No. 36175 and the Conditional Use Permit for Parcel 1 have been conditioned to address erosion of soils during all grading activities. Further, the NPDES requires implementation of erosion control measures during construction and during long-term occupancy. Structural measures including managing runoff through infiltration basins, filtering storm water, and use of drainage management material help to remove pollutants and control erosion. This project will be required to comply with Conditions of Approval regarding geotechnical conditions for Tentative Map No. 36175 and the development of Parcel 1. With implementation of the mitigation measures listed below, impacts associated with potential soil erosion or the loss of topsoil would be less than significant. Mitigation M22. Prior to the issuance of any grading permit, the Applicant shall submit to the Public Works Department an erosion control plan prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Temecula Municipal Code, Section 18.15, Erosion and Sediment Control. M23. Prior to the issuance of any building permit, landscape plans shall be prepared for all slopes created by the grading and fill of these sites consistent with "Slope Planting Guidelines" and the Development Code, and shall provide erosion control on undeveloped portions of the site. 6.g-h. Less Than Significant Impact: According to the Soils Report prepared by John R. Byerly on February 3, 2009, the site has been extensively graded and settlement monuments are interspersed throughout. Based on contours shown on the grading plan, up to 48 feet of fill has been placed on the site. The surface of the site is very irregular and the property topography is higher than the adjacent roads. The site consists of dense silty sands and clayey sands and hard silty clays. The engineered fill placed below the surcharge fills is relatively dense or hard, but portions of the natural soils underlying the fill are relatively compressible. According to the Soils Report prepared by Leighton Consulting on July 7, 2009, the liquefaction induced settlement is likely to occur in relatively deep layers and would have minimal impact on surface improvements. Lateral spreading is considered unlikely on the site due to the depth of the liquefiable layers and distance to the creek. The potential presence of expansive clay at foundation levels may require remedial grading measures and/or structural mitigation such as design of post-tension slabs; however, impacts from unstable or expansive soils is considered to be less than significant with implementation of the proposed project. 6.i. No Impact: The project site is located in an urbanized area in which wastewater infrastructure is currently in place. Therefore, the capacity of the soils to support septic tanks or alternative waste water systems is not relevant to the proposed project. No impact would occur and no mitigation measures are required. 7. HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS. Would the project: Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Issues and Supporting Information' Sources Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact incorporated Impact Impact a Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment ✓ through the routine transportation, use, or disposal of hazardous materials? b Create a significant hazard to the public or the environment ✓ through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment? c Emit hazardous emissions or handle hazardous or acutely ✓ hazardous materials, substances, or acutely hazardous materials, substances, or waste within one-quarter mile of an existing or proposed school? d Be located on a site which is included on a list of hazardous ✓ materials sites compiled pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 and, as a result, would it create a significant hazard to the public or the environment? e For a project located within an airport land use plan or, ✓ where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? f For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would the ✓ project result in a safety hazard for people residing or working in the project area? g Impair implementation of or physically interfere with an ✓ adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan? h Expose people or structures to a significant risk or loss, ✓ injury or death involving wildland fires, including where wildlands are adjacent to urbanized areas or where residences are intermixed with wildlands? Comments: 7.a. Less Than Significant Impact: The proposed project will use the existing Dendy Parkway as the ingress and egress point. The project does propose the use of chlorine and muratic acid and will store these liquids in above ground double contained containers on site. However, chemicals stored, used, and handled at facilities are required to ensure that proper types of fire and life safety protection systems and procedures are in place. The applicant has submitted a chemical classification packet to the City as required by the California Fire Code and California Building Code for compliance with these requirements. The Fire Department has found that the access storage and leak protection plan is acceptable. Additionally, any potential impacts to the public or the environment resulting from routine transportation, use, or disposal of hazardous materials or the accidental release of hazardous materials into the environment shall be mitigated with implementation of a business emergency plan through the Department of Environmental Health. The plan ensures all potentially hazardous materials are contained, stored, used, and disposed of in compliance with applicable standards and regulations, and that the appropriate personnel are contacted in the event of a hazardous materials-related emergency. Therefore, there will be no significant hazard to the public or the environment from the routine transportation, use, or disposal of hazardous materials. Less than significant impacts are anticipated as a result from this project. 7.b. Less Than Significant Impact. It is not anticipated that the project would create a significant hazard to the public or the environment through reasonably foreseeable upset and accident conditions involving the release of hazardous materials into the environment. Therefore, less than significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 7.c. No Impact. No schools are located within one quarter mile of the site. The proposed construction on the property does not include any activities or uses that would pose a potential health hazard to the local population or a nearby school. Therefore, no impacts are anticipated. 7.d. No Impact. Review of available data (site appearance, USGS map, California Department of Toxic Substance Control's (DTSC) Hazardous Waste and Substances Site List (Cortese List), the Leaking Underground Storage Tank Information System (LUSTIS) and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) indicates no past uses that may have involved hazardous materials. Based upon the available data and the historical land use, there is no evidence to support that hazardous wastes would be present on the site. The project site is identified as a contaminated site under Government Code Section 65962.5. No impacts are anticipated. 7.e-f. No Impact: The project site is not located within an airport land use plan or within two miles of a public or private airstrip according to Figure 5.9-4 in the Land Use Element of the General Plan. No impact upon airport uses will result from this proposal. 7.g No Impact. The proposed project is not located in a portion of an emergency response or evacuation plan area, and is designed to allow for adequate emergency vehicle access to the site. Therefore, the project would not impair the implementation of or physically interfere with an adopted emergency response plan or emergency evacuation plan. No impact is anticipated as a result of the proposed project. 7.h. No Impact: The proposed project is not located in or near a wildland area that would be subject to fire hazards. The location of the proposed project would not expose people or structures to a significant risk or loss, injury or death involving wildland fires. No impact is anticipated as a result of this project. 8. HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY. Would the project: 'Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Issues and Supporting Information Sources Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact incorporated Impact Im pact " a Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge ✓ requirements? b Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere ✓ substantially with groundwater recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local groundwater table level (e.g., the production rate of pre-existing nearby wells would drop to a level which would not support existing land uses or planned uses for which permits have been ranted)? c Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or ✓ area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, in a manner which would result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site? d Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or ✓ area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, or substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a manner which would result in flooding on- or off-site? e Create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the ✓ capacity of existing or planned storm water drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoff? f Otherwise substantial) degrade water quality? ✓ g Place housing within a 100-year flood hazard area as ✓ mapped on a federal Flood Hazard Boundary or Flood Insurance Rate Ma or other flood hazard delineation map? h Place within a 100-year flood hazard area structures which ✓ would impede or redirect flood flows? i Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, ✓ injury or death involving flooding, including flooding as a result of the failure of a levee or dam? j Inundation b seiche, tsunami, or mudflow? ✓ Comments: 8.a. Less Than Significant Impact: The proposed project will subdivide a 35 acre site and permit development of a 15 acre waterpark. Violation of water quality standards are not anticipated by implementing the proposed project which will deliver its wastewater flows to the regional wastewater plant. Wastewater will be delivered to the regional treatment plant for treatment under waste discharge requirements established by the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board. In compliance with the requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), Best Management Practices (BMPs) will be implemented during construction and occupancy to control storm water runoff pollution. A less than significant impact is anticipated as a result. 8.b. Less Than Significant Impact: The Rancho California Water District provides water and reclaimed water services to the project area. The proposed project does not include the injection into or extraction from groundwater and would not create substantial subsurface cuts, which might impede groundwater movement. No water wells would be used on the project site, as the Water District will provide water supply. Therefore, the project will not have an affect on the quantity and quality of ground waters, either through direct additions or withdrawals. The project will create approximately 15 acres of impermeable surface on Parcel 1. The proposed project is required to comply with local development standards, including lot coverage and landscaping requirements, which will allow for some percolation and ground water recharge on the developed site. A less than significant impact is anticipated as a result of the proposed project. 8.c-e. Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project would result in the alteration of existing drainage patterns and the amount and quality of surface runoff due to grading, and the construction of structures and associated parking which result in the addition of impervious surfaces. Some changes to absorption rates, drainage patterns, and the rate and amount of surface runoff are expected whenever development occurs on previously permeable ground. While absorption rates and surface runoff will change, potential impacts shall be mitigated through site design which includes an infiltration basin and bio-swales to accommodate runoff. These types of drainage conveyances, which safely and adequately handle runoff, are anticipated to ultimately drain into the existing storm drains. The proposed project will be required to accommodate the drainage created as a result of the development with an on-site drainage plan and Best Management Practices (BMP's) subject to Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) regulations as well as National Pollution Elimination Discharge System (NPEDS) standards. Through implementation of the project Stormwater Prevention Pollution Plan (SWPPP), erosion and siltation issues are controlled and with implementation of the project Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP), surface run-off and water quality impacts are controlled. A Preliminary Drainage Study for TPM 36175 prepared by Tory R. Walker Engineering, Inc. on February 13, 2009, provided preliminary drainage information related to the pad for Parcel 1. The development of Parcel 1 includes one water quality basin to be located along the northeastern edge of the parcel. The basin will serve to collect runoff from the project site and allow percolation. Runoff from the waterpark and most of the parking lot will drain north to this basin. The outflow from the basin will be treated and then released to a grass swale that will convey runoff south to Dendy Parkway. A storm drain system along Dendy Parkway will convey the runoff from the water park to the existing storm drain leaving the site. Conditions of Approval for Tentative Map No. 36175 will include requiring the developer to submit to the Public Works Department a Drainage Study and WQMP prepared by a registered Civil Engineer for all future grading plans on the parcels created by TPM36175. A less than significant impact is anticipated as a result of the project. 8.f. Less Than Significant Impact: The proposed project will not substantially degrade water quality nor will it violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements established by the State of California. The project is required to prepare a Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP) pursuant to the Municipal Separate Storm-Sewer permit (MS4 permit) issued by the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board. The WQMP for Parcel 1 development was submitted on February 5, 2009. The water quality control measures identified in the WQMP have either been incorporated into the design of the project or have been added to the project with specific conditions of approval and are expected to eliminate potential adverse impacts to receiving waters. A project specific WQMP will be required for each parcel created and anticipated for future development under this project. A less than significant impact is anticipated as a result of the project. 8.g. No Impact. The proposed project is located in a developed industrial park area. The project proposes to subdivide 35 acres and develop a 15-acre waterpark on Parcel 1; therefore, housing will not be placed within a 100-year flood hazard area as mapped on a Federal Flood Hazard Boundary or Flood Insurance Rate Map or other flood hazard delineation map. No impact is anticipated. 8.h. Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project is located adjacent to Murrieta Creek and will place structures within a 100-year flood hazard area as mapped on Figure PS-2 in the Public Safety Element of the General Plan. The Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) is in the process of improving the creek which will allow the creek to carry greater flow. As a result of the creek improvements, the flood zone boundaries will change and the property will be remapped out of the flood-plain. The City of Temecula Public Works Department has reviewed the potential flood hazards and determined that the proposed structures would not impede or redirect flood flows. Prior to issuance of a building permit, the applicant shall provide verification to the Department of Public Works that the finished pad elevation is higher than the flood-plain elevation. Prior to the issuance of a building permit, the applicant shall file a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) application with the Department of Public Works to officially remap the property out of the flood-plain zone. If the property is not remapped prior to issuance of a building permit the applicant shall obtain flood-plain insurance on the property and provide proof of such insurance to the Department of Public Works. 8.i. No Impact: The project site is not located within a dam inundation area. The project would not expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, injury, or death involving flooding, including flooding as a result of a levee or dam failure. No impact is anticipated as a result of the project. 8.j. No Impact: The proposed project is not located near a coast line which would be subject to inundation by seiche, tsunami, or mudflow. No impact is anticipated as a result of the proposed project. 9. LAND USE AND PLANNING. Would the project: I' Potentially.! Potentially d Significant Unless Less Than Issues and Supporting Information Sources !Significant Mitigation Significant No '.Imp act Incorporated Impact Impact a Ph sicall divide an established community? ✓ b Conflict with any applicable land use plan, policy, or ✓ regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the project (including, but not limited to the general plan, specific plan, local coastal program, or zoning ordinance) adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigating an environmental effect? c Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or ✓ natural community conservation plan? Comments: 9.a-b. Less Than Significant Impact. The project site will not divide the physical arrangement of an established community. The project site is vacant and surrounded by existing industrial development. Just north of the property is Rancho California Water District property within the City of Murrieta. The property is currently being used as an outdoor sports facility. East of the project site is the future expansion of Diaz Road and Murrieta Creek. West of the property is a large industrial development including Professional Hospital Supply (PHS), and to the south of the property is an existing industrial businesses including Milgard and Scotts Co. The proposed water park site is zoned Temecula Education Center Planned Development Overlay District-10 (PDO-10). Sports and Recreational Facilities are permitted in the PDO-10 zone with an approved Conditional Use Permit (Table 17.22.216). The project is consistent with the zoning standards of the City's General Plan and Development Code, the location of the project eliminates any possibility of physically dividing an established community. Impacts from all General Plan Land Use designations were analyzed in the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the General Plan. Specific land uses permitted in PDO-10 were analyzed in the EIR for the Temecula Education Center. Agencies with jurisdiction within the City provided comments on the scope of the analysis contained in these EIRs. Mitigation measures approved with these EIRs have been applied to this project where necessary. Furthermore, all agencies with jurisdiction over the project are being given the opportunity to comment on the project, and it is anticipated that they will make the appropriate comments as to how the project relates to their specific environmental plans or policies. Less than significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 9.c. Less Than Significant Impact: The project is located in two Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan Criteria Cells. A Habitat Acquisition and Negotiation Strategy (HANS) application was filed for the site and a JPR was completed in 2006. The City of Temecula has not identified this property as a candidate for habitat acquisition. The project is consistent with the applicable Multi Species Habitat Conservation Plan and any potential impacts are anticipated to be less than significant. 10. MINERAL RESOURCES. Would the project: '.Potentially :I. Potentially Significant Unless: Less Than Issues and Supporting Information Sources Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral ✓ resource that would be of value to the region and the residents of the state? b Result in the loss of availability of a locally-important ✓ mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan? Comments: 10.a-b. No Impact. The project will not result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource nor in the loss of an available, locally important mineral resource recovery site. The State Geologist has given the City of Temecula a classification of MRZ-3a, containing areas of sedimentary deposits, which have the potential for supplying sand and gravel for concrete and crushed stone for aggregate. However, these areas are determined as not containing deposits of significant economic value based upon available data in reports prepared in accordance with the Surface Mining and Reclamation Act (SMARA) of 1975. Furthermore, the project site is not identified as an important site known to maintain such resources as shown in the Final EIR for the City of Temecula General Plan. Therefore, no impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 11. NOISE. Would the project result in: Potentially 'Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Issues and Supporting Information Sources Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a Exposure of persons to or generation of noise levels in ✓ excess of standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies? b Exposure of persons to or generation of excessive ✓ roundborne vibration or roundborne noise levels? c A substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels ✓ in the project vicinity above levels existing without the project? d A substantial temporary or periodic increase in ambient ✓ noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the ro'ect? e For a project located within an airport land use plan or, ✓ where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? f For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would ✓ the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? Comments: 11.a. Potentially Significant Unless Mitigation Incorporated: According to the Acoustical Analysis Report prepared by Michael Brandman Associates dated August 16, 2006, development of the project would require site preparation (i.e. land clearing, grading, excavation, and trenching) and construction of the buildings and infrastructure. These construction activities would generate noise that would be heard both on and off the project site. The proposed project is not forecast to generate severe noise levels over the long-term. The project will create some noise levels over that currently emanating from the vacant land. However, those noises are not anticipated to create a substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the project. Since this project does not involve any pile driving or other severe noise generating activities, this project is not forecast to generate severe noise levels that would impact the nearby businesses. In general, the trucks and earth-moving sources are noisiest with equipment noise ranging up to about 90 dBA at 50 feet from the source. Noise emissions tend to be more associated with periodic events under full load rather than continuous noise exposure. Spherically radiating point sources of noise emissions are atmospherically attenuated by a factor of 6 dB per doubling of distance, or about 20 dB in 500 feet of propagation. The loudest earth-moving noise sources will therefore sometimes be temporarily detectable above the local background beyond 1,000 feet from the noise source. An extensive noise impact envelope requires a clear line of sight from source to receiver. Any terrain, topography or structures between the source and receiver would limit line of sight. Construction noise impacts are therefore less than predicted under theoretical maximum input conditions. Construction noise sources are not strictly relatable to a noise standard because they occur only during selected times and the source strength varies sharply with time. The penalty associated with noise disturbance during quiet hours, and the nuisance factor accompanying such disturbance, usually leads to time limits on grading activity imposed as a condition on grading permits. The City of Temecula provides specific standards for preventing construction noise nuisance which will be incorporated as mitigation measures. Mitigation M24. A noise complaint response program shall be established and shall respond to any noise complaints received for this project by measuring noise levels at the affected receptor site. If the noise level exceeds an Ldn of 65 dBA exterior or an Ldn of 45 dBA interior at the receptor, the applicant will implement adequate measures (which may include portable sound attenuation walls, use of quieter equipment, shift of construction schedule to avoid the presence of sensitive receptors, etc.) to reduce noise levels to the greatest extent feasible. M25. All construction equipment is required to be operated with mandated noise control equipment (mufflers or silencers). Enforcement will be accomplished by random field inspections by applicant personnel during construction activities. Compliance with the above standard conditions measures will ensure that construction noise impacts are controlled to a less than significant level. These measures are set as conditions on the project grading permits. Compliance with these criteria will preclude creation of a significant temporary noise impact during construction. 11.b. Less Than Significant Impact: This project does not include any construction activities that would generate excessive groundborne vibration or groundborne noise. No potential exists for significant groundborne noise/vibration impacts associated with the proposed project. Less than significant impacts are expected from this project. 11.c. Less Than Significant Impact. In reviewing project impacts, future noise levels will be compared with the City standards for commercial uses since these are the land uses in the project area. Project related impacts are minimal (all less than 1.0 dBA). The primary sources of noise onsite include vehicles in the parking lot, pumps and compressors associated with the pools and water rides, and periodic enouncements on the public address system. Some noise sources such as the public address system will be periodic, while others such as pumps and compressors will be fairly constant throughout the day. Noise from children and adults visiting the park is expected, however the noise levels will be consistent with the City's General Plan noise dBA. A less than significant impact is anticipated. 11.d. Potentially Significant Unless Impact Mitigation Incorporated. Temporary construction noise impacts vary because the noise strength of construction equipment ranges as a function of the equipment used and its activity level. Short-term construction noise impacts tend to occur in discreet phases dominated initially by earth-moving sources, then by foundation and parking area construction, and finally for finish construction. In general, earth-moving sources are noisiest with equipment noise ranging up to about 90 dBA at 50 feet from the source. Pile drivers, jack hammers and rock drills are also noisy, with the peak noise from a pile driver exceeding 100 dBA at 50 feet and jack hammers and rock drills exceeding 90 dBA. (For more specific information on construction equipment noise generation, please refer to the noise study in the technical appendices). Spherically radiating point sources of noise emissions are atmospherically attenuated by a factor of 6 dB per doubling of distance, or about 20 dB in 500 feet of propagation. The loudest earth-moving noise sources will therefore sometimes be temporarily detectable above the local background beyond 1,000 feet from the noise source. An extensive noise impact envelope requires a clear line of sight from source to receiver. Any terrain, topography or structures between the source and receiver would limit line of sight. Construction noise impacts are therefore less than predicted under theoretical maximum input conditions. Construction noise sources are not strictly relatable to a noise standard because they occur only during selected times and the source strength varies sharply with time. The penalty associated with noise disturbance during quiet hours, and the nuisance factor accompanying such disturbance, usually leads to time limits on grading activity imposed as a condition on grading permits. The following mitigation measures will be imposed on the project. Mitigation M26. Construction activities shall be limited to no more than the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday. No construction can occur outside of these hours or on Sundays or holidays except in the event of emergency. Compliance with the above time limits will ensure that construction noise impacts are controlled to a less than significant level. These time limits are set as conditions on the project grading permits. Compliance with these criteria will preclude creation of a significant temporary noise impact during construction; therefore reducing a potentially significant impact to a less than significant level. 11.e-f. No Impact: This project is not within two miles of a public airport or public or private use airport. According to Figure 5.10-4 of the French Valley Airport Future Noise Contours in the Noise Element of the General Plan, the project is not located in the noise impact area for the French Valley Airport. In addition, the project is not located in the French Valley Airport Land Use Compatibility Zone according to Figure 5.9-3 in the Land Use and Planning Element of the General Plan. Therefore, people within the project area will not be exposed to excessive noise levels generated by an airport and less than significant impacts will result from this project. 12.

Comments: 12.a. Less Than Significant Impact. The project will not induce substantial growth in the area either directly or indirectly. The proposed project is an amusement park that will attract people that live in and outside City limits. The development may cause some people to relocate to (or near) Temecula to their place of employment (future employees of the water park), which is considered a moderate indirect affect. However, the project will not induce substantial growth beyond what is projected in the City's General Plan. Less than significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 12.b-c. No Impact The project will not displace substantial numbers of people or existing housing, as the site is vacant property zoned for public institutional development. Therefore, the project will not necessitate the construction of replacement housing due to displacement of housing or people. No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 13.

The project will have a less than significant impact upon public services, such as fire and police. The development of the site will incrementally increase the need for these services. The water park will only be open during the summer months, which will greatly decrease the need for public services for the water park the rest of the year. In addition, the water park will have life guards on duty for safety. The project will also contribute its fair share through the City's Development Impact Fees to the maintenance or provision of services from these entities. Less than significant impacts are anticipated. 13.iii,iv No Impact.

The project will have no impact on the demand for neighborhood, regional parks or other recreational facilities, or affect existing recreational opportunities. In addition, this project will have a positive impact on recreational services in the City as it will provide an outlet for young people who live in the community. Less than significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 15. TRANSPORTATIONITRAFFIC. Would the project: 'Potentially Potentially.

Comments: 15.a-b. Potentially Significant Impact Unless Mitigation Incorporated. The applicant provided a traffic study, entitled Temecula Water park/Diaz Property Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA), prepared by DKS Associates on June 30, 2009. The TIA reviewed existing traffic conditions in the vicinity of the project site, as well as the potential project impacts at the following intersections adjacent to the project site: • Diaz Road at Dendy Parkway • Margarita Road at Winchester Road • Diaz Road at Winchester Road Ynez Road at Promenade Mall North • Enterprise Circle at Winchester Road • Ynez Road at Promenade Mall South • Winchester Road at Jefferson Avenue • Diaz Road at Avenida Alvarado • 1-15 southbound ramps at Winchester Road • Jefferson Avenue at Overland Drive • 1-15 northbound ramps at Winchester Road Ynez Road at Overland Drive • Ynez Road at Winchester Road • Promenade Way at Overland Drive • Promenade Mall West at Winchester Road Margarita Road at Overland Drive 0 Promenade Mall East at Winchester Road The General Plan has established Level of Service (LOS) D as the lowest acceptable level of service for traffic circulation within the City of Temecula. The proposed water park will operate approximately four months of the calendar year from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. The water park is expected to retain 15 full-time employees, 300 seasonal employees, and 2,000 daily guests. The proposed project, which assumed an AVO of 3.5 persons per vehicle for guests/customers, an AVO of 1.0 persons per vehicle for employees/deliveries, and 45 persons per bus, is projected to generate approximately 1,208 total daily vehicle trips. The addition of project traffic to the weekday AM and PM peak hour, and Saturday mid-day peak hour under project completion year and cumulative condition will affect intersection performance levels along the Winchester Road, Ynez Road, and Jefferson Avenue corridors by increasing delays greater than 2.0 seconds at intersections that may already be operating at an LOS that is below the minimum threshold established by the Temecula General Plan (LOS D). According to the City's General Plan, a significant impact occurs when vehicles are delayed by 2.0 seconds or more at intersections which operate at LOS E and F. In order to mitigate project related impacts, the following mitigation shall be implemented: Mitigation M27. The project shall be responsible for fair-share participation for implementation of system improvements along Winchester Road, Ynez Road, and Jefferson Avenue. Additionally, the construction of the French Valley Interchange will further offset the project impacts along the analyzed roadways, including Winchester Road, Ynez road, and Jefferson Avenue. The proposed project shall also participate in funding of programmed improvements through the payment of City of Temecula Development Impact Fees (DIF) and Western Riverside County Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fees (TUMF). Payment of these fees will help support Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects that reduce traffic congestion in the project study area. Specific CIP projects, such as the construction of the French Valley Parkway overpass and interchange with the 1-15 freeway, and the extension of Cherry Street are anticipated to mitigate impacts along Winchester Road. Additional on-site requirements that occur as part of the conditions of approval include sight distance at the project entrances to be reviewed with respect to Caltrans and City of Temecula sight distance standards at time of preparation of final grading, landscaping, and street improvement plans, on-site traffic signing and striping to be detailed in conjunction with construction plans for the project site and implemented prior to occupancy, and stop signs, stop bars and stop legends to be provided at the project access points. With implementation of the required improvements, mitigation, and fees as part of the conditions of approval, traffic impacts from this project are would be mitigated to a less than significant level. 15.c. No Impact: Development of the proposed project will not result in a change in air traffic patterns, including an increase in traffic levels or a change in location that would result in substantial safety risks. This site is not within the French Valley Airport influence area. No impacts are anticipated as a result of the project 15.d. No Impact. The project will not increase hazards to safety from design features. The project is designed to current City standards and will not pose any hazards from sharp curves or dangerous intersections. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 15.e. No Impact: The project will not result in inadequate emergency access or inadequate access to nearby uses. The project is designed to current City standards and provides for adequate ingress and egress from the site. The project does not interfere with access to nearby uses. The Fire and Police Departments have reviewed the proposed project and have determined that adequate emergency access has been provided from Dendy Parkway and Cherry Avenue. No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 15.f. Less than Significant Impact. The City of Temecula requires parking be provided at a ratio of 1 space per 1,000 gross square feet of recreation area with other uses calculated separately. The project is providing 455 parking spaces. The interior park area is 447,933 square feet which requires 448 parking spaces. The only other use in conjunction with the water park would be 15,572 square feet of administration buildings. Additional parking spaces for the administration buildings is not warranted considering park operations are included in the total recreation area calculation. Therefore, the project will not result in inadequate parking capacity and impacts are anticipated to be less than significant. 15.g. Less Than Significant Impact. Transit Service for the project site is currently served by the Riverside Transit Authority (RTA). The surrounding industrial area has established alternative transportation routes (i.e. bus and bicycle routes) along Winchester Road and Diaz Road. To encourage alternative means of transportation and reduce greenhouse gases (ghg) emissions, a new bus stop on Dendy Parkway was required as a result of the proposed project. The bus stop will be required to be designed consistent with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting this alternative transportation. No conflict or adverse impact to adopted alternative transportation policies, plans or programs is forecast to occur from implementing the proposed project and therefore impacts as a result of this project will be less than significant. 16.

Would the project: Potentially '.Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Issues and Supporting Intonation Sources Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incorp orated Impact Impact a Exceed wastewater treatment requirements of the ✓ applicable Regional Water Quality Control Board? b Require or result in the construction of new water or ✓ wastewater treatment facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects? c Require or result in the construction of new storm water ✓ drainage facilities or expansion of existing facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental effects? d Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the project ✓ from existing entitlements and resources, or are new or expanded entitlements needed? e Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment ✓ provider which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project's projected demand in addition to the provider's existing commitments? f Be served by a landfill with sufficient permitted capacity to ✓ accommodate the project's solid waste disposal needs? g Comply with federal, state, and local statutes and ✓ regulations related to solid waste? Comments: 16.a-b,e. Less Than Significant Impact: The proposed project will deliver wastewater to the Rancho California Water District (RCWD) wastewater treatment plant. RCWD has sewer capacity to be able to convey the expected peak flows at full development of all the areas it services. Development of the proposed project will have an incremental effect upon existing systems. The Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the City's General Plan states: "implementation of the proposed General Plan would not significantly impact wastewater services." Since the project implements the goals and policies of the City's General Plan, potential impacts are anticipated to be less than significant and no mitigation measures are required. Through the payment of annexation fees, sewer connection fees, development impact fees (for water facilities), the impact of implementing the proposed project on sewage systems is forecast to be less than significant. 16.c. Less Than Significant Impact. The development of the parcel will require or result in the construction of new storm water drainage facilities onsite that will connect to the existing system currently in place. The design of the existing system offsite is expected to be sufficient to handle this project and will not require the expansion of existing facilities (Preliminary Drainage Study prepared by Tory R. Walker Engineering, Inc. on February 13, 2009). The project has been conditioned to address storm drainage flows that would result from the proposed development. This project will be conditioned to comply with Conditions of Approval for Tentative Map No. 36175 and Conditional Use Permit for the water park development on Parcel 1. With implementation of the drainage study recommendations, impacts associated with storm water drainage would be less than significant. 16.d Less Than Significant Impact. Adequate water supplies have been identified by the Rancho California Water District to meet the current and immediate future demands in its service area, including the proposed project. While the proposed project will have an incremental impact upon existing systems, the project will not significantly impact existing water supplies nor require expanded water entitlements. Therefore, a less than significant impact is expected. 161-g. Less Than Significant Impact. The project will not result in a need for new landfill capacity. According to the General Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR), page 5.14-5, and the County Solid Waste Management Plan, adequate landfill disposal capacity exists within the regional landfills to meet current and future demands with the incorporation and continued expansion of recycling programs and opportunities. Any potential impacts from solid waste created by this development can be mitigated through participation in Source Reduction and Recycling Programs, which are implemented by the City. Less than significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 17. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE. Would the project: Potentially Potentially Significant Unless Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of ✓ the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? b Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, ✓ but cumulatively considerable ("Cumulatively considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects)? c Does the project have environmental effects which will ✓ cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either direct) or indirectly? Comments: 17.a-c. Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed project is the subdivision of 35 acres (TPM 36175) and the construction and development of a 29,580 square foot water park on proposed Parcel 1. The project will be accessed via a one way entrance and a one way exit off of Dendy Parkway. This project will provide a commercial recreational outlet for the City of Temecula. A water park use is allowed by Conditional Use Permit approval in the Temecula Educational Center Planned Development Overlay District-10 (PDO-10) zoning designation if approved by the City. Potential impacts include short-term construction effects and the long-term effects that result from converting a property from its existing disturbed, vacant setting to a commercial recreational use. Most of the potential adverse impacts are either not significant or they can be controlled to a less than significant impact with identified mitigation measures. Several potential impacts (air quality, cultural resources, transportation/circulation) require mitigation, including modification of the construction schedule, to ensure that impacts are controlled to a less than significant level. As described previously, prehistoric or historic archaeological sites are known to exist within the project site. Mitigation would ensure that development would not cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of an archaeological or paleontological resource. Traffic impacts are limited, but when combined with the effects of past projects approved in the immediate area, the cumulative result is considerable. The applicant will be required to pay standard mitigation fees that will be used to help ease the traffic impacts in the City. The entire site has been previously graded and disturbed and, consistent with the MSHCP, the site has been previously analyzed by Joint Project Review (JPR) and was not considered suitable for conservation. Implementation of mitigation measures as previously described within this Initial Study would ensure that impacts to habitat and associated animal species are reduced to a less than significant level. Therefore, with mitigation, development of the proposed project would not degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal, or eliminate important examples of major periods of California history or prehistory. The project site would be developed in conformance with the City of Temecula's General Plan and Development Code. Cumulative effects for the development of this site were analyzed in the General Plan Environmental Impact Report. All cumulative resource issues were found to be consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code. Given the project's consistency with the General Plan and Development Code, the cumulative impact related to the development of the proposed project will not have a significant impact. The proposed project will not have environmental effects that would cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, directly or indirectly. Potential impacts include short-term construction effects and the long- term effects that result from converting a property from its existing setting to a developed site. Most of the potential adverse impacts are either not significant or they can be controlled to a less than significant impact with identified mitigation measures. 18. EARLIER ANALYSES. Earlier analyses may be used where, pursuant to the tiering program EIR, or other CEQA process, one or more effects have been adequately analyzed in an earlier EIR or negative declaration.

The Remington Business Centre Owners Association believes there are several implications with regards to the sheer nature of these projects. The Association is concerned about the negative impact this will have on all of the members of our 'association in terms of investment and keeping up with the attended use of this area as a high end business park. Regardless of the outcome of the possible environment impact report which would address noise pollution and traffic issues, the Association strongly opposes the plans for this development in the area which has been designated for office and industrial use. Thank ou, Vicki Giese, CMCA At the Direction of the Board VG/wc, CC: NM WBC-NM Temecula City Council CORRS/CITY/TEMECULA-OPPOSE WATER PARK-LOW INC HOUSING.RMG Associa' I The nation's leader in community association management I www.associaonitne.com 1 800.808.4882 TEMECULA WATERPARK Statement of Operations Clearwater Waterpark Development is pleased to submit for your review a statement of operations for the development of a waterpark located on the North West corner at the intersection of Diaz Rd and Dendy Pkwy. The park will be developed on approximately +/-17 acres. The site is designed to accommodate approximately 11 acres of waterpark with the balance allotted for access, and parking. Following is a partial listing of the key points accompanied by a brief description of the operations that would affect the property under which Clearwater anticipates working: 1. Hours and Days of Operation- The waterpark operating season is about four months of a calendar year. It is anticipated the Temecula Park will be open daily from Memorial Day to Labor Day from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Additionally, the park will open for a few weekends prior to Memorial Day and after Labor Day depending on the weather. 2. Number of Employees- It is anticipated the park will retain a full time staff of 15 employees and 300 seasonal or part-time employees. The full time staff will oversee the year round operation and maintenance of the park. The 300 seasonal employee work forces will primarily be youth recruited from within the local community. 3. Number of Required Parking- Parking will be based on the City's code for a community/recreational pool of 1 space per 1,000 s.f. of recreational area for the park, and standard parking requirements for the administration buildings. This would equate to approximately 435 stalls for the park and an additional 48 for the administration and food service buildings totaling 483 stalls. Currently the park is designed to accommodate 498 vehicles with an additional 9 handicap and 10 bus stalls. 4. Average Daily Peak Trips Generated-. Clearwater anticipates the average daily attendance to be 2,000 people. 50% of the attendance or approximately 185 vehicles will arrive at the park between the hours of 9:30 AM and 12:00 PM. 85% of the daily attendance or approximately 130 cars will arrive before 3:30 PM. The remaining 15% or 55 vehicles will arrive at the park between the hours 3:30 PM and 8:00 PM. According to a parking and traffic, nearly all trips generated by the operation of the Temecula Park will not be during peak hours. 5. Type of Equipment or Process Used- There is not special equipment or processes used in the operation of a waterpark. 6. Description of Hazardous Materials- In order to maintain standards set forth by local health codes, a storage area for liquid chlorine will be designed into the park. This storage area will be located at the SE corner of the park behind the wave pool. In addition to liquid chlorine, a small quantity of muriatic acid will stored and used on site. Clearwater Waterpark Development feels the development of a waterpark in the City of Temecula will prove to be a tremendous asset to the community. It will not only provide wholesome family recreation for the residents of Temecula , but provide employment opportunities to hundreds of youth. Clearwater Waterpark Development looks forward to working with the City of Temecula and successfully constructing a Temecula's own premier waterpark. TEMECULA WATEPARK Section J. Statement of Justification Clearwater Waterpark Development, LLC is pleased to submit for your review the following justification outlining our request for a Conditional Use Permit. 1. This particular site is ideal for the proposed use. Based upon City requirements and our experience we have provided ample parking. We have also designed the entry to the Waterpark to handle the admission process quickly. It is close to Freeways, and centrally located for the Temecula Community. We have made good use of the space and been careful to provide for future needs. 2. While the Waterpark would be widely used by the local residents, the hours of operation would be off peak for traffic in the area. Our traffic study more clearly addresses this question. 3. The Waterpark would have an overall healthy impact on the community. It would fill a need for families looking for a place for their children to enjoy summer recreation. It would provide vital jobs and training for about 300 young people living in the community for the summer. It would provide wholesome entertainment for the community adding to the appeal of Temecula. 4. The project is being designed to compliment and add to the quality of the surrounding business community. It is a permitted use within the current city zoning and every step is being taken to make it compatible with the surrounding community and reach out to our neighbors. Along with this package we are submitting the same information to the Association Members.
