BACKGROUND SUMMARY
On January 16, 2014, Sherrie Munroe, representing Markham Development Management
Group, Inc., submitted Planning Application No. PA14-0008 for a Development Plan for
Diamond Hearts (Plant’s Choice) to construct 3 two-story industrial structures in a Light
Industrial zone. Each parcel includes a two-story structure for the purpose of providing indoor
warehousing, over 12,000 square feet of outdoor storage space, as well as associated office
space. Each building comprises 10,917 square feet. Shared access to warehousing and rear
storage pads will be provided by two drives off Winchester Road. 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
Under the proposed Development Plan, Diamond Hearts (Plant’s Choice) is proposing to locate
at 42236, 42260, and 42284 Winchester Road. The development of the site will be phased as
the need for additional buildings dictates future expansion. Building #1 is anticipated to be
developed first, followed by Building #2, and finally Building #3.
Site Plan
The project conforms to the development regulations of the Light Industrial (LI) zoning district.
Building setbacks exceed the minimum requirements set forth in the Development Code; lot
coverage for the proposed site is 15%, which is far below the maximum 40%, and the proposed
Floor Area Ratio (FAR) is 0.22 which is below the target FAR of 0.40 for this zoning district.
Architecture
The proposed buildings are consistent with the Development Code and Design Guidelines.
Although this is primarily an office/warehouse, visual interest in the building forms is created
though varied parapet heights and the inclusion of significant staggers in the wall planes which
provide vertical shadow lines. The buildings will be constructed of CMU block, with architectural
enhancements to include numerous colors and textures of CMU block that create variations to
the horizontal wall planes. Enhanced entries include a stucco finished tower element with
recessed entry doors. Metal box beam trellises wrap the entrance, portions of the street side
elevations, as well as create shaded covered spaces for outdoor employee patios. In
conjunction with landscaping, these architectural features create aesthetic interest that breaks
up the building mass from the street view.
3
Landscaping
The landscape plan conforms to the landscape requirements of the Development Code and
Design Guidelines. Tree and shrub placement will serve to effectively screen and soften
perimeter walls, onsite parking areas, and the building elevations. The project proposes to
landscape 30,718 square feet or 22 percent of the combined parcels, which exceeds the
minimum 20 percent landscaping requirements of the Light Industrial (LI) zone. Landscaping is
significant along Fuller and Winchester Roads which includes African Sumacs, Date Palms, and
Pink Chitapa trees, and generous ground covers and shrubs. It is further enhanced adjacent to
the elevations where primary parking and entrances are located. These areas include
Flowering Pear trees to create distinction to the entrances.
Access/Circulation
The project would provide orderly development within an industrial area. Two points of gated
access are provided for the three buildings, which are aligned to create access off Winchester
Road with a shared driveway for Buildings #1 and #2. Vehicles must use these drives to access
the warehouse sections of the structures and outdoor storages areas of the lots. The layout also
maximizes parking and presents the simplest possible circulation pattern. The overall project
provides 60 parking spaces, which exceeds the 58 required by the Development Code
conditions for cross lot parking areas .
The Public Works Department has analyzed the projected traffic impacts of the project and has
determined that the impacts are consistent with the traffic volumes associated with the General
Plan EIR. The Fire Department also reviewed the plan and determined that there is proper
access and circulation to provide emergency services to the site.
LEGAL NOTICING REQUIREMENTS
Notice of the public hearing was published in the U-T San Diego on September 18, 2014 and
mailed to the property owners within a 1,000-foot radius.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project has been
deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review (Section 15332, Class 32
In-Fill Development Projects).
The request for a Development Plan for 3 two-story industrial structures in a light industrial zone
will be conducted in an In-Fill area. All access and public utilities are available to the site. The
proposed site, with issuance of a Development Plan, is in conformance with all zoning
requirements of the Development Code.

pressurized to 150 psi for a minimum period of two hours without loss of pressure.
The second inspection will verify that all irrigation systems are operating properly,

PD-14. Employee Training. Employee training regarding retail/credit card theft, citizens’
arrest procedures, personal safety, business security, shoplifting or any other
related crime prevention training procedures is also available through the Crime
Prevention Unit.
PD-15. Crime Prevention Design. 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.
e. 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.
f. 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.
g. 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.
h. Redesign space to increase the perception of natural surveillance. Abnormal
users need to be aware of the risk of detection and possible intervention.
Windows and clear lines-of-sight serve to provide such a perception of
surveillance.
i. 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.
PD-16. Business Security. Businesses desiring a business security survey of their location
can contact the Crime Prevention and Plans Unit of the Temecula Police
Department at (951) 506-5132
Any questions regarding these conditions should be directed to the Temecula Police
Department Crime Prevention and Plans Unit at (951) 506-5131.
