Due to insufficient data, the project was again continued to the Planning Commission meeting of October 15, 1990. At this time, Staff is working with the applicant on the project and requests that the Planning Commission continue the Time Extension request to November 5, 1990, at which time Change of Zone No. 5 will also be presented before the Planning Commission. The original Change of Zone No. 5150 for Vesting Tentative Tract No. 23299 was never adopted by the County Board of Supervisors. The Supervisors conducted the first reading of the zone change ordinance, but never held the second reading which is required for a zoning ordinance to be finalized. The Vesting Tentative Tract Map can not be approved unless the zoning request is approved. Staff feels that it is appropriate to process the Time Extension and the Zone Change request concurrently in the same manner as an original tract map would be processed when a zone change is required for approval. RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Department Staff recommends that the Planning Commission continue Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 23299, First Extension of Time to their regular meeting of November 5, 1990.

Adoption of Negative Declaration 2. Approval APPLICATION INFORMATION APPLICANT: REPRESENTATIVE: PROPOSAL: LOCATION: Brent Dix C-M Engineering Vestin9 Tentative Tract No. 25004 to subdivide approximately 59.0 acres into 135 single family lots, and Change of Zone from R-R to R-1. Northeast corner of Seraphina Road and Rita Way. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Zone Chanqe Change of Zone 5611 is a proposal to change the zoning of the subject 59 acres from R-R (Rural Residential), which requires a one acre minimum lot size, to R-1 (Single Family Residential), which requires a 7,200 square foot minimum lot size. The project site is surrounded by A-1-10 (Agricultural, 10 Acre Minimum) and R-R-2 1/2 to the east, and R- R to the south and west. This project will provide a buffer zone between the higher County approved density to the north, and existing lower density R- R zoning to the south. The Winchester Specific Plan area, which is to the north and northwest, contains lot sizes averaging approxlmateiy LLS00 to 5,000 square feet. This is substantially higher than the density of the proposed project. The SWAP identifies this area as residential, 2-4 dwelling units per acre. The proposed Change of Zone is consistent with this designation. Tentative Tract Vesting Tentative Tract No. 25000, is an application to subdivide 59 acres into 135 single family lots. STAFFRPT\VTT2500~ 1 Four (4) additional remainder lots will be created, two (2) of which will be considered for park dedication (Lots 137 and 138). The proposed lot sizes range from 7,200 square feet to 17,825 square feet with an average lot size of approximately 8,800 square feet. The approval and density of this project is dependent on the approval of Zone Change No. 5611. BACKGROUND: ANALYSIS: At its regular meeting on September 17, 1990, the Planning Commission continued Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 25082 and Change of Zone No. 5611. The Commission requested that the applicant submit additional information regarding grading, design guidelines and park space. Subsequent to the Planning Commission hearing Staff met with the applicant's representatives to discuss the Commlssion~s concerns. On September 28, 1990, the applicant submitted the additional information. The applicant provided the following information in response to the Commission's concerns: 1. Provide Cross Sections for Slope Analysis: Pursuant to Staff's recommendation, the applicant identified three samples. The samples represent worst case examples of grading cuts located on site. Staff has reviewed the cross sections and has identified the maximum vertical cut to be approximately 30 feet high. 2. Revise Desiqn Guidelines: The revised design guidelines reflect current lot and tract numbers. No changes were made to the design criteria as they pertain to development standards. 3. Park Space invoivinq MWD Easement Area: Lots 137 and 138 represent 16.4 acres of unbuildabie land covered by Metropolitan Water District and Southern California Edison easements. The applicant has offered to dedicate this area to the City for future park space. Currently, Staff is only requiring dedication and no improvements are proposed. However, because the land has limited usefulness as a park, it is Staff's recommendation that the proposed offer of STAFFRPT\VTT2500~ 2 dedication not be credited towards the Quimby requirements as contained in Condition of Approval Number STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Planning Department Staff recommends that the Plannin9 Commission: ADOPT the Negative Declaration for Vesting Tentative Tract No. 2500~, and Change of Zone No. 5611, based on the analysis and findings contained in the Initial Study and Staff Report; and, APPROVE Change of Zone 5611, based on the analysis and findings contained in the Initial Study and Staff Report; and, APPROVE Vesting Tentative Tract No. 25004, based on the analysis and findings contained in the Staff Report, subject to the attached Conditions of Approval.

The file was transferred to the City of Temecula in May, 1990. Since that time Staff has met with the applicant on several occasions to amend the map configuration. Zone Chanqe Change of Zone 5611 is a proposal to change the zone on 59 acres from R-R {Rural Residential ) to R- 1 {Single Family Residential). The project is surrounded by A-1-10 IAgricultural, 10 Acre Minimum) and R-R-2 1/2 to the east, R-R to the south and west. To the north and northeast are Specific Plan areas. The Specific Plan areas contain lot sizes averaging approximately 0,,500 to 5,000 square feet. This is substantially lower than the density of the proposed project. The Specific Plan is Winchester Properties and is located in the County. The SWAP identifies this area as residential, dwelling units per acre. The proposed Change of Zone is consistent with this designation. Tentative Tract Vesting Tentative Tract No. 25000, is an application to subdivide 59 acres into 135 single family lots. The density of this project is dependent on the approval of Zone Change No. 5611. Lot Size The minimum proposed lot size is 7,200 square feet. The maximum lot size is 18,300 square feet, with an average lot size of approximately 9,000 square feet. The minimum lot size in the R-1 zone is 7,200 square feet. There are 6 lots which will be created as a result of easement dedications. The largest of which are lots 136, 137, and 138for the Metropolitan Water District Aqueduct and Southern California Edison. Lot 138 also contains a Stephen's Kangaroo Rat Habitat Preservation area. A total of 16.6 acres are taken by the easement lots. STAFFRPT\VTT2S00~ 2 GENERAL PLAN AND SWAP CONSISTENCY: ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: Access a, ccess will be provided off of Nicolas Road via Joseph, Rita, and Seraphina Roads. The applicant will be required to construct road improvements to Nicolas Road. Access will also be taken off of Murrieta Hot Springs Road. Improvements to Murrieta Hot Springs Road will be constructed by Assessment District 161. All maintenance and slope areas outside of Lots 1-135 will be maintained by County Service Area No. lu,3. Architecture Currently there is no product slated for this project. When the housing product is proposed, a plot plan will be presented to the City. Gradinq Approximately 380,000 cubic yards on u,2.u, are proposed, with no export. Some substantial 2:1 slopes exist, however, the majority of the slopes are located on easement lots. The Land Use Designation exhibit from the Southwest Area Community Plan targets this area for residential development at 2-u, units per acre. This map proposes a density of 3.5 units per acre. The SWAP has been adopted as a policy guide by the City of Temecula. The project is consistent with lot standards of the proposed zone. Probability of consistency with the City~s future General Plan is considered likely by the Staff, The Planning Commission and the City Council maintain the authority to determine whether projects are likely to be consistent with the future General Plan, and each project considered by these bodies must be considered on their own merit until a new General Plan is adopted. A preliminary environmental assessment was performed by the County of Riverside Planning Department prior to transmittal of the case to the City of Temecula. That assessment was cornplated by the City Planning Staff. The following areas of potential impact were reviewed in detail. STAFFRPT\VTT2500u, 3 Traffic Iml3acts A Traffic Study was performed for the project by Kunzman Associates in October, 1989. The Study has been accepted by the City and appropriate mitigation measures included in Conditions. Biolog. y A Biological Study was conducted in August, 1989. The Study identified the existence of the Stephen's Kangaroo Rat on a portion of the site. A habitat conservation area has been preserved on the tentative map as approved by the United States Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service. Environmental Conclusion Staff has concluded that no significant impact on the environment will occur as a result of site development, and a Negative Declaration has been recommended for adoption. FINDINGS: A basic level of useable and total open space has been provided on individual lots to meet the needs of future residents. There is a reasonable probability that Vesting Tentative Tract No. 2500~ will be consistent with the City~s future General Plan, which will be completed within a reasonable time in accordance with State Law. There is not a likely probability of substantial detriment to or interference with the future and adopted General Plan, if the proposed use or action is ultimately inconsistent with the plan. The proposed use or action complies with State planning and zoning laws. The site is suitable to accommodate the proposed land use in terms of the size and shape of the lot configurations, circulation patterns, access, and density. STAFFRPT\VTT2S00~ ~ 10. 11. 12. The project as designed and conditioned will not adversely affect the public health or welfare. Vesting Tentative Tract No. 25000, is compatible with surrounding land uses. The proposal will not have an adverse affect on surrounding property, because it does not represent a significant change to the present or planned land use of the area. The project as designed and conditioned will not adversely affect the built or natural environment as determined in the Initial Study for this project. The design of the subdivision is consistent with the State Map Act in regard to future passive energy control opportunities. Units will have significant southern exposure which allows for passive heating opportunities. Deciduous landscaping can be utilized to allow solar penetration in winter and shading in summer. The design of the subdivision, the type of improvements and the resulting street layout are such that they are not in conflict with easements for access through or use of the property within the proposed projects. That said findings are supported by minutes, maps, exhibits, and environmental documents associated with this application are herein incorporated by reference. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Planning Department Staff recommends that the Planning Commission: ADOPT the Negative Declaration for Vesting Tentative Tract No. 2500ai and Change of Zone No. 5611, based on the analysis and findings contained in the Initial Study and Staff Report; and, APPROVE Change of Zone 5611, based on the analysis and findings contained in the Initial Study and Staff Report; and, STAFFRPT\VTT2500u, 5 APPROVE Vesting Tentative Tract No. 2500u,, based on the analysis and findings contained in the Staff Report, subject to the attached Conditions of Approval.

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 or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehlstory? Does the project have the potential to achieve short-term, to the disadvantage of long-term, environ- mental goals? (A short-term impact on the environment is one which occurs in a relatively brief, definitive period of time while long- term impacts will endure well into the future. ) Does the project have impacts which are individually limited, but cumu- latively considerable? I A project~s impact on two or more separate resources may be relatively small, but where the effect of the total of those impacts on the environment is significant. ) Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substan- tial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Yes Maybe No X X X X STAFFRPT\VTT2500~, 7 ))1 Discussion of the Environmental Evaluation Earth 1.a. No. The project site will be graded as part of a mass grading effort. There will be substantial grading for this project. However, a conceptual mass grading plan for the project was approved by the City Engineer and designed in accordance with Temecula~s standards and the Conditions of Approval. 1.b. Yes. All development disrupts the soil profile to some degree and results in soil displacement, compaction, and overcovering. This impact is not considered significant. 1 .c-d. No. The mass grading effort was designed to adhere to the gross natural topography of the site in its original condition. While substantial grading and recontouring of this site will occur in the immediate area, the overall plan is intended to promote preservation of site topography. 1.6. Maybe. Wind and water erosion potentials will increase during the construction phase and remain high until disturbed areas are replanted. The wind erosion impact is considered significant but will be mitigated through minimal grading, retention of natural vegetation whenever feasible, and use of watering trucks and hydro-seeding of disturbed areas after grading. After the project is completed, increased water run-off during floods may occur. Water will be channeled to drainage easements and streets. Appropriate drainage control devices will have to be approved by the City Engineer and designed in accordance with Temecula's standards and the Conditions of Approval. 1.f. No. Since the project site is not adjacent to any creek or stream bed, the proposed project will not cause erosion of or deposition into any creek or stream bed. 1.g. No. The subject site is designated as subject to liquefaction and subsidence by the Riverside County General Plan. To mitigate under hazard, a geological report has been prepared. This report contains mitigation measures addressed in the Conditions of Approval. No. The proposed project will not significantly impact the area~s air quality. Water No. The proposed project will not impact any marine or fresh water bodies. The proposed project will incrementally affect the quantity and quality of run-off water in the City. 3.b. No. The proposed project will inhibit the absorption of water into the ground through the construction of impermeable surfaces on the site. Run-off will increase but not substantially.

No. The proposed project will not significantly affect the flow or quantity of ground waters. No. The proposed project will not impact the public water supply. No. Conditions of Approval are included for this project which require proper design and installation of drainage conveyance devices. No. No sensitive vagetational associations or species were identified on-site. No. No agricultural production occurred on-site. No. A survey for Stephen~s Kangaroo Rat prepared for this project analyzed biologic resources on-site. Individuals of the Stephen's Kangaroo Rat were found. Conditions of Approval and habitat preservation measures have been included in the Conditions of Approval and on the Tract Configuration. No. Analysis indicates that the project site may be exposed to significant levels of noise as a result of traffic on Murrieta Hot Springs Road. However, it is concluded that the project design, when proposed, will comply with the interior noise exposure standard placed on residential construction by the County of Riverside and the State~s noise insulation standards. It is further recommended that the final engineering design of the project be reviewed by a recognized acoustical engineer to ensure compliance with the County~s noise standards. Liqht and Glare Yes. However, the project has been conditioned to comply with applicable lighting standards. Land Use No. Project is consistent with both the zoning designation and the Southwest Area Community Plan. Natural Resources 9.a-b. No. This project itself will not significantly increase the rate of use of natural resource. Construction materials and patrolcure products will be used extensively to support the specific plan project overall. STAFFRPT\VTT2500~ 9 Risk of Upset 10.a-b. No. The proposed project will not promote a risk of explosion or release hazardous substances nor will it interfere with emergency response plan or an emergency evaluation plan. Population 11. Yes. Although the project proposes to increase the density from one dwelling unit to 135 units, the proposed project is consistent with the City Land Use Designation laccording to SWAP). Housing 12. No. Since the proposed project will create housing, the proposed land use will not create a demand for additional housing. Transportation/Circulation 13. a. Maybe. 13.b-e. No. 13. f. Maybe. The Traffic Study which was prepared for the proposed project has addressed potential traffic impacts and has concluded that the cumulative impacts will not be significant. Public Services lu,.a-f. No. The proposed project will not have significant adverse effect on public services other than parks and recreational facilities. EnercJy 15.a-b. No. The proposed project will not result in the substantial use or increase in demand of fuel or energy. Utilities 16.a-f. No. The proposed project might require the use of utilities but will not require substantial alteration to the existing system. Human Health 17.a-b. No. The proposed project will not have significant adverse affect on human health. Aesthetics 18. No. Because the proposed project has been designed to be compatible with the surroundin9 neighborhood, there will be no significant impact on aesthetics. Recreation 19. No. Because the proposed project will not be removing any facilities currently used for recreational purposes. STAFFRPT\VTT2500~ I0 Cultural Resources 20. a-d. No impact. Mandatory Findinqs of Siqniflcance 21 .a. No. The proposed project will not have a significant impact on plant or wildlife species. However, if a project is located within an area designated by the Riverside County as habitat for the endangered Stephen's Kangaroo Rat, the project will be subject to mitigation fees for the Stepbends Kangaroo Rat Habitat Conservation Plan. 21 .b. No. The proposed project will not have the potential to achieve short- term, to the disadvantage of long-term, environmental goals. 21 .c-d. No. The proposed project will not have impacts which are individually limited or cumulatlvely considerable, nor will they have environmental affects which will cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly. STAFFRPT\VTT2500~ 11 ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION 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 signi- ficant effect on the environment, there will not be a signi- ficant effect on this case because the mitigation measures described on attached sheets and in the Conditions of Approval have been added to the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION WILL BE PREPARED. I find the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.

Adoption of Negative Declaration 2. Approval APPLICATION INFORMATION APPLICANT: REPRESENTATIVE: P R OPOSA L: LOCATION: Marstan Development Gary Martin 105 unit condominium subdivision of 7.31 acres. South side of Margarita Road, between Morega Road and Avenida Cima Del Sol. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Tentative Tract No. 25443 proposes to subdivide the subject 7.31 acre site into a 105 unit condominium development, with an overall density of lu,.5 units per acre. The proposed development has been designed in accordance with the standards for Planned Residential Developments JSection 18.5) and the R-3-2500 zone. The gated project consists of nineteen 119) two-story buildings 19-5 plex and 10-6 plex) and utilizes nine (9) different unit floor plans ranging from 1,015 sq.ft. to 1,487 sq.ft. The project design utilizes a mediterranean theme with clay tile roofs, light-salmon colored stucco and woad trellises (for the patio areas). The project site plan incorporates two (2) tot lots which contain a combined area of approximately 10,825 square feet and a recreation area of approximately 8,700 square feet that features a pool, recreation building and picnic area. S~AFFRPT\TM25443 1 BACKGROUND: ANALYSIS: On September 10, 1990, the Plannin9 Commission considered the applicant's proposal; and, continued this item due to those concerns identified below in the Staff Analysis. Subsequent to the Planning Commission meeting, Staff met with the applicant to discuss possible design modifications, in order to address the Commission's concerns. On October 4, 1990, the applicant submitted a modified proposal for the Commission's consideration. In response to the comments expressed by the Commission, the applicant modified the improvement plans, as described below: Relocate trash enclosures due to limited accessibility and potential safety concerns. As indicated in a letter from Inland Disposal, Inc., dated October 2, 1990, if requested, containers can be emptied without driving large refuse trucks into the project site, in which a small pick-up truck will move the containers out and back into the project. Therefore, in order to lessen the potential safety concerns, Staff has included the following Condition in the recommended Conditions of Approval (see Condition No. 161d): "Prior to the issuance of an occupancy permit, the applicant shall enter into an agreement with inland Disposal, inc., for the refuse service to include the utilization of a small pick-up truck equipped with a lift mechanism in order to move the containers out and back into the project; thus, prohibiting the entering of large refuse trucks into the project. Said agreement shall be submitted to the Planning Director for approval." Provide adequate emerqency vehicle access and turn-around. Both the emergency secondary ac~s to the adjoining property least) and the ninety ( 90' ) foot long hammerhead at the rear of the subject property { north) have been designed STAFFRPT\TM25~A3 2 :n accordance with the requirements of the County Fire Department. In addition, the Traffic Engineering Department has analyzed this issue and has determined that this proposal is adequate. Provide perimeter wall alonq Marqarita Road and provide front yard landscapinq. The applicant is proposin9 a six 16') foot high wall with a minimum setback of five feet to a maximum of eight 18' ) feet from the front property llne, undulatlng approximately every thirty 130') feet. The proposed wall will be constructed with a three and one-half 13.5') foot high block wall and two and one-half 12.5') foot high wrought iron with pillars located approximately every eight 18' ) feet. The setback area between the front property llne and the proposed wall will provide sufficient area for adequate landscaping. At this time, the applicant has not submitted a conceptual landscaping plan, however, a detailed landscaping plan will be required to be submitted for review and approval by the Planning Staff prior to the issuance of any building permits as noted in Condition No. 15{d). There may be a potential traffic problem due to the qated entry. The project ingress/egress has been designed to provide two ~2) entry lanes and one { 1 ) exit lane. The gate itself is located 120 feet from the curb allowing for a total of 240 feet of stacking. The Traffic Engineering Department has reviewed the proposed ingress/egress design and has determined that the location of the gate is adequate, however, the proposed twenty 120') foot turn-around and radius in front of the gate may not be adequate. Therefore, Condition No. 66 has been included to insure an adequate design. Review Parkinq Issue. In the previous Staff Report, Staff indicated that according to Section 18.12, the proposed STAFFRPT\TM25~,3 3 development is required to provide 270 parkin9 spaces. However, Staff has noted that the proposed project is a Planned Residential Development; and accordln9 to Section t8.5112), the park/n9 standard is 2.5 spaces per dwellln9 unit 12.5 x 105 = 262.5 spaces). Therefore, the proposed 263 park/n9 spaces does comply with the minimum parkin9 requirements. In regards to the proposed parallel parking spaces, the Traffic Engineering Department has indicated the following minimum standard: Thirty-six (36') feet minimum curb to curb with parallel parking (8~ wide) on one side only and a twenty-eight (28~) foot minimum driveway.

It was initially scheduled for review by the County Land Development Committee on January 4o 1990; however, the item was indefinitely continued until addlt~onal materials were submitted and reviewed by the appropriate agencies. An incomplete file was transmitted to the City of Temecula in April of 1990, and the application was deemed complete on July 6, 1990. On August 2, 1990, Tentative Tract Map No. 25443 was reviewed by the Preliminary Development Review Committee (PDRC) in order to informally evaluate the project, prior to determining Staff's recommendations and potential conditions of approval. Comments by the PDRC included: 2. 3. 4. Off-Site Grading Secondary Access Proposed Drainage System Density. On August 30, 1990, the project {TT 25433) was reviewed by the Development Review Committee IDRC). The DRC determine that Tentative Tract Map No. 25u,43, as designed, can be adequately conditioned to mitigate the DRC's concerns. The DRC has forwarded a recommendation of approval subject to conditions. Prior Actions On May 31, 1988, the Riverside County Board of Supervisors approved Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 23211 which proposes to subdivide the subject 7.31 acre site into a 128 unit condominium development, with an overall density of 17.5 units per acre. An application for a First Extension of Time was acted upon by the Riverside County Planning Commission on March 21, 1990, in which an extension of time, to May 31, 1991, was approved and forwarded, with a recommendation of Receive and File, to the City of Temecula, on April 21, 1990. On August 28, 1990, the City Council approved a First Extension of Time, subject to the reduction in density to a maximum of 16 dwelling units per acre |117 unit). This approval was based on the STAFFRPT\TT25~.43 2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION: ANALYSIS: enaxlmum density allowed under the Southwest Area Community Plan, which is 16 D. U./AC; and due to the fact that the applicant has filed a revised project (Tentative T tact Map No. 25u, u,3). It was the consensus of the City Council that a project with a lower density such as Tentative Tract Map No. 2511L13 is more desirable as opposed to the 128 dwelling units of the previously approved project (TT 23211). Location This project is located on the south side of Margarlta Road, approximately 1,500 feet east of Moraga Road. Tentative Tract No. 25uA3 proposes to subdivide the subject 7.31 acre site into a 105 unit condominium development, with an overall density of 1Li.5 units per acre. The proposed development has been designed in accordance with the standards of the R- 3-2500 zone. The project consists of nineteen J19) two-story buildings |9-5 plex and 10-6 plex) and utilizes nine J9) different unit floor plans ranging from 1,015 sq.ft. to 1,u,87 sq.ft. Grading and Landform Alteration The proposed project will generally utilize the existing contours of the site in order to minimize the alteration of an existlng, fairly prominent, natural ridgeilne. The grading involves approximately ~0,000 cubic yards of excavation and approximately 80,000 cubic yards of fill, in which u,0,000 cubic yards of soil will be imported. Although the City does not currently have policies with respect to grading, Staff would' suggest that the Planning Commission consider the proposed land form alteration and future, potential grading of the subject area since the City Councll has expressed a CONCern. Circulation and Access The proposed project will be gated and will take access from Margarita Road approximately 1,500 feet east of Moraga Road. An internal, thirty-six {36') foot wide, private driveway wilt provide access to the required off-street parking areas. In order to lessen potential internal vehicular congestion, the Engineering Staff has recommended a condition which require automatic garage door openers. STAFFRPT\TT25~,3 3 .Parking The proposed project includes a total of 263 parking spaces. The total number of spaces required by the Development Code |Section 18.12) is summarized below. Two Bedroom Dweliings: 2.25 spaces per dwelling unit Three Bedroom Dwellings: 2.75 spaces per dwelling unit Based on the above requirements and the proposed development, the project must provide the following total number of parking spaces: 67 Two Bedroom e 2.25 = 85.5 38 Three Bedroom e 2.75 = 184.25 Total : 269.75 space By comparison, the applicant is proposing to provide 2.5 parking spaces per dwelling unit (190 private garage and 73 guest). Traffic Impacts A Traffic Study was prepared and submitted in March of 1990. The report has been reviewed by the Engineering Staff, in which a conclusion was made that the cumulative impact of the proposed residential development will generate no significant off-site traffic impacts. However, the Planning Commission may want to consider the cumulative impact of concentrated high density development in this area along Margarita Road. Proiect Deslqn The proposed project has been designed to feature a Mediterranean theme with terra-cotta roofs, textured stucco walls and trellises. A central recreational area will provide useable open space for the project's residents. After reviewing the applicant~s renderings, Staff has determined that the proposed project design is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood. STAFFRPT\TT25~q3 ~ GENERAL PLAN AND SWAP CONSISTENCY: ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: FINDINGS: The proposed density of 1~,.5 units per acre is consistent with the Southwest Area Community Plan designation of 8-16 units per acre, In addition, Staff finds it probable that this project will be consistent with the new General Plan when it is adopted. In compliance with the California Environmental Act..n .nv,ronm.nt., .ss.ssm.nt ,'n,,ia, was performed for this project. Staff determined that Tentative Tract Map No. 251~3 will not have a significant effect upon the environment. Therefore, a Negative Declaration has been recommended for adoption. There is a reasonable probability that Tentative Tract No. 25u, u,3 will be consistent with the City~s future General Plan, which will be completed within a reasonable time in accordance with State Law. There is not a likely probability of substantial detriment to or interference with the future and adopted General Plan, if the proposed use or action is ultimately inconsistent with the plan. The proposed use or action complies with State planning and zoning laws. The site is suitable to accommodate the proposed land use in terms of the circulation patterns, access, and density. The project as designed and cOnditioned will not adversely affect the public health or welfare. Tentative Tract No. 25b, u,3 is compatible with surrounding land uses. The harmony in scale, bulk, height, density, and coverage is likely to create a compatible physical relationship with adjoining properties. The proposal will not have an adverse affect on surrounding property, because it does not represent a significant change to the present or planned land use of the area. STAFFRPT\TT251~,3 5 10. 11. The project as designed and condltloned will not adversely affect the built or natural environment as determined in the Initial Study for this project. That said findings are supported by minutes, maps, exhibits, and environmental documents associated with this application are herein incorporated by reference. The project will not have a significant adverse impact on the environment in that Stephen~s Kangaroo Rat Habitat Conservation fees are required and archaeological resources are not likely to be found at the site. The project will not be detrimental to human health or safety in that drainage and flood control measures must be approved by FEMA prior to map recordation, and the potential for liquefaction, differential subsidence, and surface flssuring at the site are very low. A soils report must be submitted to the Building and Safety Department addressing soil stability and geological conditions.

Environmental Evaluation No. The project site will be graded as part of a mass grading effort. There will be substantial grading for this project. However, a conceptual mass grading plan for the project was approved by the City Engineer and designed in accordance with Temeculats standards and the Conditions of Approval. Yes. All development disrupts the soll profile to some degree and results in soil displacement, compaction, and overcoverlng. This impact is not considered significant. No. The mass grading effort was designed to adhere to the gross natural topography of the site in its original condition. While substantial grading and recontouring of this site will occur in the immediate area, the overall plan is intended to promote preservation of site topography. Maybe. Wind and water erosion potentials will increase during the construction phase and remain high until disturbed areas are replanted. The wind erosion impact is considered significant but will be mitigated through minimal grading, retention of natural vegetation whenever feasible, and use of watering trucks and hydro-seeding of disturbed areas after grading. After the project is completed, increased water run-off during floods may occur. Water will be channeled to drainage easements and streets. Appropriate drainage control devices will have to be approved by the City Engineer and designed in accordance with Temecula~s standards and the Conditions of Approval. No. Since the project site is not adjacent to any creek or stream bed, the proposed project will not cause erosion of or deposition into any creek or stream bed. No. The subject site is designated as subject to liquefaction and subsidence by the Riverside County General Plan. To mitigate under hazard, a geological report should be prepared prior to any construction of the property. The report should include mitigation measures. No. The proposed project will not significantly impact the areaIs air quality. No. The proposed project will not impact any marine or fresh water bodies.

No. No sensitive vegetational associations or species were identified on -site. No. No agricultural production occurred on-site. No. A survey for Stephen's Kangaroo Rat prepared for this project analyzed biologic resources on-site. In that no individuals of the Stephen~s Kangaroo Rat were found there is no occupied habitat within the bounds of the tract map. Implementation of the tract as proposed will not result in a taking nor would it result in any adverse effect on the species or on the species' habitat. In that surrounding lands to the north, south, east and west have previously been developed at urban levels of use or are presently being developed at such levels of use, preservation of this site as a reserve is inappropriate. In addition, the site is now isolated from all other known colonies by impassable residential and other barriers and relnvaslon of the site is virtually impossible. Implementation of the project as proposed will not have a significant effect and no mitigation other than payment of fees under the Stephen~s Kangaroo Rat Fee Ordinance is required. No. A noise assessment was prepared for this project. Analysis indicates that the project site is exposed to significant levels of noise as a result of traffic on Margarlta Road. However, it is concluded that the project design, as recommended herein, will comply with the interior noise exposure standard placed on residential construction by the County of Riverside and the State~s noise insulation standards. STAFFRPT\TT25~3 9 It is further recommended that the final engineering design of the project be reviewed by a recognized acoustical engineer to ensure compliance with the County~s noise standards.

He stated that this was previously aDDroved as Tentative Tract 2321], by the County, to estabjisb a 128 unit condominium development. The item went before the City Council for an extension of time, add the Council expressed concern reuardinq the density of this project. The Council granted the extension of time subject to the condition that the Project not exceed 16 units Der acre. He stated that the aPPlicant had reduced the development to 14,5 units per acre. He also advised the Comission that the applicant was proposing 263 parking spaces which he understood would be acceptable under County standards: however, staff's calculations for parking indicated a reauirement of 269.75 spaces. Mr. Mujica stated t~at the ~eve]oper had upgraded the units in square footage and provided for recreational areas for the property owners. CO4~ISSIONRR FAHEY reauested clarification of the density reauirement of the project. GARY THORNHILL advised that the project was ojven an extension of time on fhe orioina] approval subject to the condition that the project did not exceed ]6 units per acre however they had one year to record the final mad on the oriainai approval. C0M~ISSIONER FORD asked staff if the applicant was aware of the reference to the project beina qated. MR. MUJICA stated that the app]acant had indicated that the project would be ~ated and that they could include that as a condition. COe~MISSIORER FAHE7 stated that homeowners in the surrounding area expressed a desire for some type of Consistency to the appearance of these types of projects and asked if thls project could be conditioned for future development a]on~ that corridor. GARY THORNHILL stated that design standards would be city guidelines and that this project cou]d not be conditioned to establish these guidelines. COM~4ISSIONER Iqi)RD auestioned the block wall reauirement. MR. MUJICA stated that staff would be amending Condition No. 13 (E) to read "and a]ono Margarita Road" instead of Via La Vida.

MR. MUJICA stated that there is a reguirement for secondary access and they have requested that the developer obtain an sgreement from the adjacent Property owner for this access. He advised that both property owners were working together to provlde the fire and safety protection reguirements. Co~ssioDer HoaQlaDd slso addressed the developers participation in the fundinc for parks. GARY THORNHILL stated that Con~jtion No. 38 covers the fees for Parks and recreation. COMMISSIONER BLAIR asked if staff had done any studies on the saturation of condomlnium housing in the city. GARY THORNRILL stated that this data is part of the study beino conducted for land use inventory and upon completion of the study the Planning DeDartment would have a better idea of the degree of saturation of this type of development. He stated that the study whould be completed at the beQinninQ of October. Commissioner Blair also expressed concern for the QradinQ of this site as it relates to the overall gradinQ belng done in the city. Mr. Thornhill stated that there are no guidelines established at this time re~ardin~ grading. GARYMARTIN, 3060] Cabri]]o Street, Temecula, developer of the project0 discussed the design of his project. He added that in working with the City Council to develop a desireable project whl].e addressinQ their concerns, he voJunteered to reduce the project to 14.5 units per acre. He stated again that he feels the proposed 263 parkinQ spaces is adequate for the ProPosed number of units. Mr. Martin requested the following modifications to Findings in the Staff Report and to Conditions of Approval: Finding No. 11 amended to read "must be in accordance with FEMA"; Condition No. 35 amended to read "prior to the grading plan being approved and street improvement plan and final map being substantially completed."; Condition No. 60 amended to read "shall be designed by a registered civil engineer"; and Condition No. 61 amended to read "Provide in-street plans and conduit for future interconnect routing".

SAL MUNOZ, 41823 Humbert Drive, Temecula, expressed hzs objection to the hiob-densit? deve]opment of the corridor which this project is located in, traffic problems in this area, erosion of natural landscape and the need for each development to support itself in the needs of parks and recreation area for the property owners rather than paying fees to create these areas. MR. MARTIN stated that the development did address the needs of recreation within the project by includino a pool and spa area as we]] as two tot lots. COMMISSIONER FAHEY expressed concern for aDDroving th~s project without the forthcomlna ]and use ana mad studies. COMMISSIONER BLAIR expressed concerns for the lack of sufficient park an~ recreation space in the project and the lmpacts another hiuh density project such as thls. would have on the already over-populated schools. COMMISSIONER FORD stated that he felt the developer has looked at the needs of the community and attempted to provide the necessary recreation areas within the project. Commissioner Ford also expressed concern for the naral]e] parking and access of the project. COMMISSIONER CHINIAEFF also expressed concern for emergency vehicle access in the project. He suqOested that the trash bins be relocated to make them more accessible. He also expressed concern for the potential traffic problem that may be created at the gated entrance and for landscape design along Margarita Road. COMMISSIONER FAHEY moved to continue the item to the October 15, 1990 Planning Connission meeting, to address the issues of varkino, turn-around locations for trash trucks and landscape and desiqn of the Marqarita Road frontage, seconded by COMMISSIONER BLAIR.

On April 10, 1990, the Temecula City Council approved a motion to Receive and File Plot Plan No. 11556 and 11557. Plot Plan Nos. 62 and 63, the landscape plans for Plot Plan Nos. 11556 and 11557, were approved by City Staff on July 9, 1990. The proposal is a commerclal parcel map to create four parcels for four previously approved office structures and a fifth parcel which will serve as a common parking area. Geoloqy County Geologic Report No. 561 was prepared in 1988 in conjunction with the site's underlying Parcel Map No. 23561. The report determined that faults encountered along the western portion of Parcel Map No. 23561 are PIelstocene Age displacements and are considered to be inactive, and that the potential for liquefactin and subsidence is low. No setback zone for human occupancy was recommended. The report recommended standard mitigations for liquefaction and ground lurching which were included as conditions of approval for Plot Plan Nos. 11556 and 11557. The County Geologist reviewed the report and found that it met the requirements of the AIqulst Priolo Act and the California Environmental Quality Act. Drainaqe The County Flood Control District reviewed Plot Plan No. 11556 and 11557 and commented that the site is part of Parcel Map No. 23561 and will be free of ordinary storm flood hazard when improvements have been constructed. Payment of flood mitigation charges for the construction of flood control facilities was a condition of approval for Plot Plan No. 11556 and 11557. STAFFRPT\PM26239 2 Reciprocal Access and Parkinq Easement Parcel No. 3 of Parcel Map No. 26239 is defined in the Conditions, Covenants, and Restrictions as a common parking area subject to easements for ingress, egress, parking, and traffic circulation. The Madison Business Park Association will levy assessments for the improvement, operation, and maintenance of the common facilities owned by the Association or subject to easements in favor of the Association. Street improvements Full street improvements already exist on Madison Avenue. Curbs and gutters have been constructed in the right-of-way of Bueking Drive, but the street has not yet been paved at this time. Bedford Properties owns the land to be dedicated for Bueking Drive and is providing street improvements by agreement with the applicant. T raffi c A Traffic Study was prepared for the previously approved office complex to be located on the subject property (Plot Plan No. 11556 and 11557). The Traffic Study was reviewed and accepted by the City Transportation Engineer. The site is being developed in a manner consistent with the existing zoning and the street system is designed to accommodate the anticipated level of traffic. Fossil Resources The site is located in an area containing fossil resources which will be impacted by excavation of the site. Plot Plan No. 11556 and 11557 included a condition of approval requiring monitoring of the excavation of the site by a qualified paleontologist, recovery and preservation of any specimens uncovered during the excavation, and a report and inventory of the findings. Kanqaroo Rat Impact Mitiqatlon The site is already disturbed, and a biological survey of the site was not required. It shall be a condition of approval for Parcel Map No. 26239 that the applicant shall pay habitat conservation fees in accordance with Ordinance 663. STAFFRPT\PM26239 3 GENERAL PLAN AND ZONING CONSISTENCY: ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The site is designated Light Industrial in the Southwest Area Plan and is located in the Manufacturing - Service Commercial IM-SC) zone. The minimum lot size in the M-SC zone is 7,000 square feet where water and sewer services are available, All five proposed parcels conform to the minimum lot size. Parcel Map No. 26239 is therefore consistent with SWAP and the Zoning Ordinance. County Environmental Assessment Nos. 3Lffi13 and 3[~,1~, were prepared and adopted in conjunction with the County Planning Director's approval of Plot Plan Nos. 11556 and 11557, an office project which will be located on the subject propert. The environmental assessments adequately identified the potential environmental impacts of the project. Mitigation measures were incorporated as Conditions of Approval for Plot Plan No. 11556 and 11557. FINDINGS: Tentative Parcel Map No. 26239 The proposed Tract Map will not have a significant negative impact on the environment, as determined in the Initial Study performed for the project. A Negative Declaration is recommended for adoption. There is a reasonable probability that this project will be consistent with the General Plan being prepared at this time. There is not a likely probability of substantial detriment to, or interference with, the future adopted General Plan, if the proposed use is ultimately inconsistent with the plan. The proposed use complies with State planning and zoning law. The project conforms to the current zoning for the site and to Ordinance No. ~60, Schedule E. The site is suitable to accommodate the proposed land use in terms of the size and shape of the lot configurations, access, and density. STAFFRPT\PM26239 4 10. 11. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidable injure fish or wildllfe or their habitat. The design of the subdivision is consistent with the State Map Act in regard to future passive energy control opportunities. All lots have acceptable access to existing and proposed dedicated right-of-ways which are open to, and are useable by, vehicular traffic. The design of the subdivision, the type of improvements and the resulting street layout are such that they are not in conflict with easements for access through or use of the property within the proposed project. The lawful conditions stated in the project's Conditions of Approval are deemed necessary to protect the public health, safety and general welfare. That said findings are supported by minutes, maps, exhibits, and environmental documents associated with these applications and herein incorporated by reference, STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Planning Department Staff recommends that the Planning Commission: Adopt the Negative Declaration for Parcel Map No. 26239. Adopt Resolution No. 90- Approve Parcel Map No. 26239 based on the Analysis and Findings contained in the Staff Report and subject to the attached Conditions of Approval.

STAFFRPT\PM26239 5 RIVERSIDE COUNTY FLOOD CONTROL AND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT Riverside County Planning Department County Administrative Center Riverside, California Attention: Regional Team No. Planner ,7~ At,,: We have reviewed.this case and have the following comments: Except for nuisance nature local runoff which may traverse portions of the property the project is considered free from ordinary storm flood hazard. However, a storm of unusual magnitude could cause some damage. New construc- tion should comply with all applicable ordinances. The topography of the area consists of well defined ridges and natural water- courses which traverse the property. There is adequate area outside of the natural watercourses for building sites. The natural watercourses should be kept free of buildings and obstructions in order to maintain the natural drainage patterns of the area and to prevent flood damage to new buildings. A note should be placed on an environmental constraint sheet stating, "All new buildings shall be floodproofed by elevating the finished floors a minimum of 18 inches above adjacent ground surface. Erosion protection shall be provided for mobile ho~ supports.' This project is in the drainage plan fees shall be paid in accordance with the applicable r~lesArea end regulations. The proposed zoning is consistent with existing flood hazards. Some flood control facilities or floodproofing may be required to fully develop to the implied density. The Otstrtct's report dated is still current for this project. accordance with approved plans. The attached comments apply. The District does not object to the proposed minor change. This project is a part of {>ez~ard2~enS(,-I- I . The project wfil be free of ordinary storm flood w tmprovemnts have been constructed in JOHN H. KASHUBA Senior Civil Engineer DATE: The County Board of Supervisors has adopted the ~ ~ F~,'~ F~//~ Area Drainage Plan for the purpose of collect~n~g~ drainage ~es. Those fees are used to construct needed flood control facilities within the par~icular area. The Area Drainage Plan fees apply to new land divisions and other t~pes of new development. Vir~ually all new development causes increased storm runoff. These increases are par~icularly troublesome in those watersheds where an Area Drainage Plan has been adopted. In order to miti- gate the downstream impacts brought about by increased runoff, the District recommends that Conditional Use Cases, Plot Plans and Public Use Cases be required to pay a flood mitigation charge. Mitigation charges, where appropriate, will be similar to the current Area Drainage Plan fee rats. Following is the Dlstrlct's recommendation: A flood mitigation charge shall be paid. The charge shall equal the prevailing Area Drainage Plan fee rate multiplied by the area of new development. The new development in this' case includes a total of /./3 acres. At the current fee rate of $ ~,~ ~o per acre, the mitigation charge equals $ 9/~o The charge is payable to the Flood Control D~t~ict prio~ to issuance of permits. If the full Area Drainage Plan fee or mitigation charge has already been credited to this property, no new charge needs to be paid. Nitigation Charge (mitcharg) County of Riverside TO: FRO~A..~~.

ITEM #8 STAFF REPORT - PLANNING CITY OF TEMECULA PLANNING COMMISSION October 15, 1990 Case No.: Tentative Parcel Map No. 2~633 Prepared By: Deborah Parks/Steve Jiannino Recommendation: Approval APPLICATION INFORMATION APPLICANT: REPRESENTATIVE: PROPOSAL: LOCATION: EXISTING ZONING: SURROUNDING ZONING: PROPOSED ZONING: EXISTING LAND USE: SURROUNDING LAND USES: Robert Paine Benesh Engineering Corporation To divide a 1.43 acre parcel into two parcels. Northeast corner of Estero Street and Ormsby Road. R-R I Rural Residential) North: R - R South: R - R East: R-R West: R - 1 R-R I Rural Residential) Existing Residential Home North: Single Family South: Vacant East: Single Family West: Single Family BACKGROUND: The application for Tentative Parcel Map No. 2Li633 was originally submitted to the Riverside County Planning Department on July 25, 1989. The proposal was to split Parcels 1 and 3 of Parcel Map No. 16705 and form four parcels. However, Riverside County Council determined that parcel 1 and 3 were not contiguous and that it would be necessary to file two separate parcel map applications. The applicant subsequently filed STAFFRPT/TPM24633 1 Tentative Parcel Map No. 25538 for Parcel 3 and submitted a revised Tentative Parcel Map No. 24633 for Parcel 1. The revised Tentative Parcel Map No. 24633 was reviewed by the Land Development Committee twice requesting additional information regarding grading, archaeological concerns and biological impacts. A biological report was prepared which determined that due to the disturbed nature of the site the project will have a minimal impact. The site was examined for Stephens Kangaroo Rats but no evidence of their existence was found. The site is located within the Stephen's Kangaroo Habitat Conservation Plan and will be subject to mitigation fees. Since the site has been graded, it was determined that an archaeological study would not be required. The site was previously graded as illustrated on the Tentative Parcel Map. The grading for the site was completed approximately one year ago and was approved by the County of Riverside. ANALYSIS: Parcel Map Confiquration and Settinq Parcel Map No. 24633 proposes to divide Parcel 1 of Parcel Map No. 16705 into two parcels. The size of the proposed parcels is as follows: Parcel 1 - 0,702 Net Acres Parcel 2 - 0.520 Net Acres The proposed lots meet the minimum half acre lot size requirement of the R-R zoning for the property. The subject site is surrounded by a variety of parcel sizes ranging from 0.18 net acre to 5.04 net acres. Surrounding the subject parcel are the following parcel sizes ( net acres): 0.23 0.19 0.18 2.06 0.64 1.39 1.39 1.07 STAFFRPT/TPM24633 2 The existing parcels that are approximately 0.25 acres are a result of a single family subdivision subject to R-1 zoning. The surroundin9 one acre and larger parcels are a result of large lot subdivisions. Staff believes that the proposed one half acre parcels would provide an appropriate transition between the 0.25 acres parcels and one acre plus parcels. Approximately 1 lJ2 miles east of the subject parcel is Santiago Estates, a large estate lot project. According to Johnson and Johnson Properties, the developers from Santiago Estates, their project has a minimum lot size of 2.5 acres. Santiago Estates is viewed by many as an exclusive development within the City. It should be noted, that although the proposed half acre parcels are located approximately 1 lJ2 miles west of Santiago Estates and function well as a transitional )and use between the smaller and larger parcels, they may encourage landowners between the subject parcels and Santiago Estates to apply for subdivision of their land to one-half acre lots. CIRCULATION: Access to the project will be from Estero Road which is paved and connects to the Windsor Crest Development which connects to Pauba Road or from Ormsby which is paved but contains pot holes and connects to Santiago which is only partially paved. Staff still has concerns regarding the existing 30 foot road dedication of Ormsby Road north of Estero Street. The current map shows the proposed vacation of the road, but the road is used as access for a parcel of land to the north. This project has been conditloned to work with the City Engineer to develop an acceptable access easement for the property to the north, which currently used Ormsby Road, prior to recordation of the final map. ZONING: GENERAL PLAN and SWAP CONSISTENCY: The project conforms to the current zoning for the site, R-R, which allows a minimum lot size of .5 acres. The project has been conditioned to conform to the improvement standards of Ordinance No. 460, Schedule G. The subject parcel is designated as 1-2 du per acre according to the Southwest Area Plan. The proposed land division is consistent with this designation, resulting in the potential of 1.6 STAF F R PT / T PM24633 3 ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: du/acre. It is anticipated that the proposed land division, as conditioned, will be consistent with the City~s forthcoming General Plan as a transitional land use between the approximate 0.25 acre lots and the surrounding larger parcels. An initial study has been completed for the project and a Negative Declaration is recommended for the proposal. FINDINGS: Tentative Parcel Map No. 24633 The proposed Tract Map will not have a significant negative impact on the environment, as determined in the Initial Study performed for the project. A Negative Declaration is recommended for adoption. There is a reasonable probability that this project will be consistent with the General Plan being prepared at this time. There is not a likely probability of substantial detriment to, or interference with, the future adopted General Plan, if the proposed use is ultimately inconsistent with the plan. The proposed use complies with State planning and zoning law. The project conforms to the current zoning for the site and to Ordinance No. 460, Schedule G. The site is suitable to accommodate the proposed land use in terms of the size and shape of the lot configurations. access. and density. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidable injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. The design of the subdivision is consistent with the State Map Act in regard to future passive energy control opportunities. All lots have acceptable access to existing and proposed dedicated right-of-ways which are open to, and are useable by, vehicular traffic. STAFFRPT/TPM24633 10. 11. The design of the subdivision, the type of improvements and the resulting street layout are such that they are not in conflict with easements for access through or use of the property within the proposed project. The lawful conditions stated in the project's Conditions of Approval are deemed necessary to protect the public health, safety and general welfare. That said findings are supported by minutes, maps, exhibits, and environmental documents associated with these applications and herein incorporated by reference.

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 or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? Does the project have the potential to achieve short-term, to the disadvantage of long-term, environ- mental goals? (A short-term impact on the environment is one which occurs in a relatively brief, definitive period of time while long- term impacts will endure well into the future. ) Does the project have impacts which are individually limited, but cumu- latively considerable? (A project's impact on two or more separate resources may be relatively small, but where the effect of the total of those impacts on the environment is significant, ) Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substan- tial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Yes Maybe No X X X X STAFFRPT/24633 7 Discussion of the Environmental Evaluation 1.a,c,d e,f,9. 1.b. 2.a.b,c. 3.a,b,c, d,e,f, i. ~.a,b,c, d. 5.a. 5.b.c. ~.a,b. 8. 9.a,b. 10.a,b. 11. 12. 13.a,b,c, d,e,f. 1Lka,b,c, d,e.

STAFFR PT / 24633 9 ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION On the basis of this initial evaluation: I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant effect on the environment, and a NECATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared. I find that although the proposed project could have a signi- ticant effect on the environment, there will not be a signi- ticant effect on this case because the mitigation measures described on attached sheets and in the Conditions of Approval have been added to the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION WILL BE PREPARED. X I find the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
