Temecula Valley Hospital to relocate the previously approved helistop to two new
locations including an interim location for use during preliminary project phases
and a permanent location on the roof of a future hospital tower to be constructed
during a later phase and to construct an approximately 5,000 square foot single

goals and policies contained in the General Plan and land use standards in the
Development Code. The goals and policies in the Land Use Element of the
General Plan encourage A diverse and integrated mix of residential,
commercial, industrial, recreational, public and open space land uses" (Goal 1);
"A City of diversified development character where rural and historical areas are
protected and co-exist with newer urban development" (Goal 3),' and "A City
compatible and coordinated with regional land use and transportation patterns"
(Goal 8). In addition, the project is consistent with the development standards of
the Development Code and associated Planned Development Overlay (PDO-9),
including setbacks, parking, landscaping, lighting, lot coverage and height.
B. The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and
development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional

The proposed modifications to the hospital's Conditional Use Permit are
consistent with the previously approved helistop site with regard to the nature,
condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures and affect
on the adjacent uses, buildings or structures. Although the Supplemental EIR
identifies "Substantial temporary or periodic increase in ambient noise levels in
the project vicinity and exposure of persons to excessive noise levels", it also
identifies that Section 9.20.030 (Noise Ordinance) of the Temecula Municipal
Code exempts sound emanating from "Public safety personnel in the course of
executing their official duties, including, but not limited to, sworn peace officers,
emergency personnel and public utility personnel. This exemption includes,
without limitation, sound emanating from all equipment used by such personnel,

modifications are compatible with the nature, condition and development of
adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional use
modifications (exempting noise pursuant to Section 9.20.030 of the Temecula
Municipal Code and Section 21662.4.(a) of the Public Utilities Code) will not
adversely affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures. Additionally, the
proposed storage building integrates into the hospital complex and is compatible
Resos 16-29 8
with the nature, condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and
structures and will not adversely affect the adjacent hospital uses, buildings 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 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 uses, including the hospital buildings and helistop, 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
council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood. The
project is in compliance with the development standards of the Development
Code and associated Planed Development Overlay (PDO-9), including setbacks,
parking, landscaping, lighting, lot coverage and height. The site is adequate in
size and shape to accommodate the proposed hospital facilities without affecting
the yard, parking and loading areas, landscaping, and other development
features prescribed in the Development Code.
D. The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health,
safety and general welfare of the community;
The modification to the conditional use permit will not be detrimental to the
health, safety and general welfare of the community. The purpose of the
modification to the helistop location is to address Caltrans Division of Aeronautics
and Federal Aviation Administration safety concerns in a manner that minimizes
impacts to the surrounding community with regard to aesthetics, hazards, and
helicopter noise. As such, with regard to the helistop, the purpose of the
modification to the use permit is specifically to redesign the helistop to ensure
that the project will not be detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare of
the community.

application for a conditional use permit be based on substantial evidence in view of the
record as a whole before the Planning Commission or City Council on appeal;

evidence that the Project could result in new significant effects or increase the severity
of previously identified effects. The Supplemental EIR found that new circumstances do
exist that introduce new significant effects or increase the severity of previously
identified significant effects and a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program and
Statement of Overriding Considerations was prepared.
