NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF

Section 1. That the above recitations are true and correct.
Section 2. Findings. The Planning Commission in recommending approval of Planning
Application No. PA97-0158 (Zoning Amendment, Specific Plan No. 219), makes the following
findings, to wit:
R: \STAFFRPT~ 158PA97.PC 4/9/98 jid 7
1. Planning Application No. PA97-0158 (Zoning Amendment//6 to Specific Plan No.
219), as proposed, is compatible with the health, safety and welfare of the community.
2. Planning Application No. PA97-0158 (Zoning Amendment//6 to Specific Plan No.
219) is consistent with the City's General Plan.
3. The project is compatible with surrounding land uses. The project consists of the
modification to an existing Specific Plan, with no changes to the overall density or the number
of units. Ultimate development of the site will be consistent and compatible with the existing land
use in the area.
4. The proposal will not have an adverse effect on surrounding property, because it
does not represent a significant change to the planned land use of the area, due to the fact that the
proposed land use is consistent with the overall concept of Specific Plan No. 219.
5. The changes proposed in the approved Specific Plan are minor and do not increase
the impacts associated with the development or the overall intensity of the development as
analyzed in Environmental Impact Report 235. The mitigation measures prepared for this
Environmental Impact Report (EIR) will be applied to this project.
Section 3. Environmental Compliance. The City of Temecula General plan EIR was
certified on November 9, 1993. Environmental Impact Report No. 235 was prepared for Specific
Plan No. 219 and was certified by the County Board of Supervisors. It has been eight (8) years
since the environmental analysis was performed for this project. In addition, an Addendum to that
EIR was prepared in 1992 for Amendment No. 4 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan. Based upon
this information, it is Staffs opinion that due to the scope (a decrease in the overall density of the
project) of the proposed General Plan Amendment and Zoning Amendment, there will be no effect
on the previous analysis. According to Section 21166 of the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA), no subsequent or supplemental environmental impact report is required for the
project unless one or more of the following events occurs: substantial changes are proposed in the
project which will require major revisions of the EIR; substantial changes occur with respect to
circumstance under which the project is being undertaken which will require major revisions in
the EIR; or, new information, which was not known at the time of the EIR was certified and
complete becomes available. None of these situations have occurred; therefore, no further
environmental analysis is required. The Commission hereby determines that the project is
consistent with a project for which an Environmental Impact Report was previously certified.
Section 4. Approval. That the City of Temecula Planning Commission hereby
recommends that the City Council adopt the Ordinance substantially in the form contained in
Exhibit A.
Section 5. Conditions. That the City of Temecula Planning Commission hereby
recommends approval of Planning Application No. PA97-0158 (Zoning Amendment, Specific
Plan No. 219) substantially in the from contained herein on property generally located north of
SR79 South, east of Meadows Parkway (north) and Margarita Road (south), south of Pauba Road
