PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES APRIL 6.1992
The Commission expressed the following concerns about the project:
commercial uses being turned inward.
pedestrian linkage from tracts to main roads.
increased side yard setbacks for two story buildings.
parking standards for multi-family.
separating school sites from adjoining uses with walls and fences.
multi-family uses incorporating more common open space.
linking parks by greenbelt paseos instead of streets.
including language in the Specific Plan that allows garages to be located
in the side or rear of homes.
re-visiting the Village Center concept.
incorporating some civic buildings on site (i.e. fire station, police sub-
station, library).
Mike Gray, representing the County Fire Department, stated that the project proposes
many ideas that are in opposition to what the fire department recommends in the way
of standards and perhaps a neighborhood Fire Department may be a consideration. He
added that there have been preliminary discussions of locating a Fire Station in
Redhawk.
Lettie Boggs, representing the Temecula Unified School District, stated that they have
been working closely with the developer and are considering school facilities with
multiple uses.

"The Villages" Homeowners Association has
requested that the maintenance of the slopes
specified herein and attached hereto as legal
descriptions and plats - Exhibits ttAH through
be vacated. Government Code Section 65360
requires that prior to any planning action,
including easement vacation, a finding of
consistency with the future General Plan must be
made.
DISCUSSION:
At the present time, the maintenance of the slopes for the above-referenced tracts
is under the auspices of the Temecula Community Services Department. The
applicant has requested that the T.C.S.D. vacate the easements for slope
maintenance on these tracts. Upon vacation by the T.C.S.D. on July 1, 1992, the
applicant will assume all responsibility for said slope maintenance and will be free to
enter into a contract with private forces to perform these services. The legal
descriptions and plats for these easement areas have been prepared by Willdan
Associates and have been reviewed for accuracy. The area encompassed by these
easements totals approximately 3.23 acres.
SUMMARY OF FINDINGS:
Maintenance of the slopes by alternative forces will have no adverse affects on public
health and safety. As the slopes will continue to be maintained, there will be no
conflict with the proposed General Plan.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission APPROVE Resolution 92- , finding
that the VACATION of the SLOPE MAINTENANCE EASEMENTS Jspeclfi~'a'herein as
attached Exhibits "A" through "H") for TRACT NOS. 20735-~,, 20735-6, 21082-4 and
21082 is CONSISTENT with the General Plan presently being developed by the City
of Temecula.

BACKGROUND
Variance No. 10 was submitted to the City Of Temecula on February 18, 1992. The request
is an application to increase the height of a 45 foot high freeway oriented sign which was
approved by the City Council on February 11, 1991. The same sign (45 foot high) was denied
by the p|anning Commi~iun on November 18, 1991.
~O~CTD~CR.WrI6N
The proposed variance is an application to increase the height of an approved sign from 45 to
55 feet. Ordinance No. 348 allows that the maximum height of a freestanding freeway oriented
sign is 45 feet.
The proposed sign will be an ilhlminatnt box displaying the logo of the ~atlon's franchise. The
sign will be mounted on a 48 inch wide single pylon.
The location of the sign is the same as what was approved by the City Council in February.
The sign location is in the southeast comer of the project site, on the noah side of the southerly
driveway entrance.
ANALYSIS
The analysis of the flag test conducted for the 45 foot high sign determined visibility from all
directions but one. Visibility of the sign was adequate from the southbound lanes of I- 15 and
Front Street, and westbound on lower Highway 79. The sign at 45 feet is not visible from the
noahbound lanes of 1-15.
The findings required to gnmt a variance include compalibility with surrounding uses and special
circumstances. As a result of the flag test, it is evident that the sign Will have freeway,
highway, and street visibility at 45 feet. In addition, the topography of the site is similar to that
of surrounding paneis.
Therefore that no special circumstances exist. ff the proposed variance is granted, the sign will
not be compatible with signs existing in the vicinity. The City has not to a~te approved any
signs over 45 feet.
ZONING, SWAP, AND FUTURE GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
As proposed, the request is not consistent with Ordinance No. 348 unless the valance is granted
pursuant to the required fmdings. The height of the sign proposed by thi~ variance does not
conform with the intent of the City's sign code which allows for 45 foot high signs, where they
are permitted. The proposal is also inconsistent with SWAP relative to potential scenic highway
corridors. SWAP states that on-site advertising shall be the minimum necessary for
identification, and shall blend with the environment. As such, Staff finds that the requested
variance will probably not be consistent with the goals, policies, and objectives that will be
celltnined in the City's filmre adopted General Plan.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS
Staff finds that the approved sign is of sufficient height for site identification. The proposed
variance in not in conformance with Ordinance No. 348, or SWAP, and is likeiy to be
inconsistent with the future adopted General Plan. In addition, the site does not exhibit unique
qualities that would warrant the granting of a variance request.
There are no exceptional circumstances applicable to the existing size and configuration
of the subject property. The project site is afforded frontage on Front Street. The site
therefore is allowed one free-standing sign per City ordinance. The approved 45 foot
high sign provides adequate visibility for the proposed advertising.
The granting of this variance will not be compatible with the general welfare of the
public in that the proposed sign does not conform with Ordinance No. 348, and the
policy guidelines in Section HI.8.f. of SWAP pertainm'g to scenic highway corridors.
The approved sign allows the applicant to adequateAy identify the project site in a manner
compatible with the intent of City sign regulations. Signage proposed is not consistent
with design and construction types generally endorsed by the City. As such, the
proposed use is not likely to be consistent with the City's future adopted General Plan,
which is being conducted in a timely manner.

D. The Planning Commission, in denying the pwposed Variance, makes the
following fmdings, to wit: .
1. There are no exceptional circumstances applicable to the existing size and
configuration of the subject property. The project site is afforded frontage on Fwnt SWeet, by
City Ordinance, therefore, the site is allowed one free-standing sign. The approved 45 foot high

BACKGROUND
Conditional Use Permit No. 2 was appwved by the Planning Commission on September 17,
1990. Conditional Use Permit No. 2 was an approval for 21,117 square feet of service area and
8,224 square feet of retail area. On October 9, 1990, the City Council approved a motion to
Receive and File Conditional Use Permit No. 2 The approval period for Conditional Use
Permit No. 2 was valid until October 9, 1991. On June 17, 1991 the Planning Commission
approved Conditional Use Permit No. 2, Revised No. 1 which was a request to revise the
previously approved Conditional Use Permit No. 2 for 21,458 square feet of service area and
8,663 square feet of retail area. The revision to Conditional Use Permit No. 2 did not extend
the life of the original approval. The applicant submitted an application for an Extension of
Time on September 26, 1991, which was within the prescribed 30 day application period.
PROJECT DESCRIFFION
Conditional Use Permit No. 2, Revised No. 1, Extension of Time is a request for a one year
extension to the original approved period for Conditional Use Permit No. 2. Conditional Use
Permit No. 2, Revised No.1 modified the Original approval for an automotive center with 21,
458 square feet of service area and 8,663 square feet of retail area.
ANALYSIS
No new significant issues have developed between the time of the Original approval and the
present. The applicant has ~quested that Condition of Appwval No. 24 for Conditional Use
Permit No. 2 pertaining to the six (6) foot high decorative block wall be deleted. The applicant
discussed the feasibility of removing the Condition for the walls along the southern, eastern and
northern pertions of the site. It is Staffs op'mion that with adequate landscap'mg, the same
screening effect could be achieved and therefore no block wall would be necessary. Staff
proposes the following Condition of appwval which could replace Condition of Approval No.
24 for Conditional Use Permit No. 2:
S~STAF~-RI .CUP 2
"Prior to issuance of building permits, the applicant shall submit a landscape
screening plan for approval by the Planning Director. Said landscape plan shall
contain a combination of shnlbs, trees and fences."
EXISTING ZONING, SWAP AND FUTURE GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
The existing zoning of the site is C-P-S (Scenic Highway Commercial). The Southwest Area
Community Plan (SWAP) designation for the site is Commercial (C). Conditional Use Permit
No. 2, Revised No. 1, Extension of Time, as conditioned, is consistent with existing zoning and
the SWAP designation for the site. As such, it is likely that Conditional Use Permit No. 2,
Revised No. 1, Extension of Time wffi be consistent with the City's General Plan
recommendations for the property, upon the Phn's final adoption.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
An Initial Study was completed for this site on August 10, 1990 and a Negative Declaration was
adopted by the Planning Commission on September 17, 1990. At that time, environmental
issues were mitigated for the project through Conditions of Approval. The proposed Extension
of Time does not indicate any significant changes to the previously approved Conditional Use
Permit No. 2, Revised No. 1. Staff therefore recommends that the planning Commission re-
afFum the previously adopted Negative Declaration.
SUMMARY
A request for an Extension of Time was submitted to the Planning Depa2iment for Conditional
Use Permit No. 2, Revised No. 1 prior to expiration date of its approval period. Staff's analysis
of the request for an Extension of Time indicated that no new significant issues regarding
Conditional Use Permit No. 2, Revised No. 1 had developed between the original approval
period and the present. Staff supports the applicant's request to replace a six (6) foot high
decorative block wall with adequate landscaping along the southern, eastern and northern
portions of the site and has included the wording for a replaeement condition of approval within
the analysis section of this staff report.
FINDINGS
No subsequent changes are proposed in the project which will require important revisions
of the previous Negative Declaration due to the involvement of new significant
environmental impacts not considered in a previous Negative Declaration on the project.
No substatttial changes have occurred with respect to the circumstances under which the
project was undertaken, such as a substantial deterioration in the air quality where the
project will be located, which will .require important revisions in the previous Negative
Declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental impacts not covered
in the previous Negative Declaration.
3. No new information of substantial importance to the project has become available.
S~STAFFRFr~-RI,CUP 3
Said findings are suppoRed by minutes, maps, exhibits and environmental documents
associated with these applications and herein incorporated by reference. This staff report
contains mapping and conditions of approval which support the staff recommendation.
The Commission, therefore, reaffirms the findings made at the time of the original
apprgval for Conditional Use Permit No. 2, Revised No. 1.

Re: CLIP if 2
Dear Mark:
We currently provide service to the site mentioned above via Route
23 and we are requesting that a bus turnout or a pad for a bus stop
be incorporated into the general design as the size of the planned
project will negatively impact our level of service unless this
amenity is constructed.
An ideal location for the bus turnout would be on westside corner
of Ynez Road midblock Ynez Auto Center, past the monument sign.
If possible, we would also like to request that pedestrian walkway
and wheelchair curb be provided near the turnout location specified
above. I can indicate the exact location for the turnout as the
project progresses.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this
project. Your efforts to keep us updated on the status of this
request will be very much appreciated. Please let us know when
this project will be completed.
Should you require additional information or specifications, please
don't hesitate to contact me.

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, )
c. Does the project have impacts which
are individually limited, but cumu-
latively considerable? (A project's
ifoplct on two or more separate
resources may be relatively small,
but where the effect of the total of
these impacts on the environment.

No
I I I. Environmental Evaluation
1 .a,b.
1 .c,d.
3,a,c,
d,f,
Yes. Fill and topsoil replacement to a depth of 3 to u, feet will occur.
Topsoil replacement is necessary to mitigate the potential for
liquefaction and subsidence. This is not considered a significant
impact.
No. The project will not result in substantial changes in topography or
destruction of unique geologic features. The site is flat, and
substantial changes in topography will not be required.
Maybe. The potential for wind and water erosion will increase during
construction. Wind erosion will be mitigated by the use of watering
trucks and planting vegetation after grading. increased water runoff
due to the addition of impermeable surfaces will be accommodated by
drainage facilities as approved by the Engineering Department.
No. The site is not located near any body of water which would be
impacted by siltalien or deposition.
No. County Geelogic Reports No. 691 and No. 692 were prepared for:
the underlying parcel map which includes the subject property. The
County Engineering Geologist reviewed the Geologic Reports with
regard to the project in questions. Although the site is located in an
AIquist-Priolo zone, no evidence for faulting was found on the site,
The geologic report stated that structural setbacks for faults are not
warranted on this site. Secondary earthquake affects af lurching or
localized ground cracking can be adequately mitigated by proper
structural design. The report also states that the potential for
liquefaction and/or seismically induced ground subsidence can be
mitigated by replacement of topsoil and fill to a depth of 3 to u, feet.
Localized deeper removals may be necessary, The County Engineering
Geologist found that the report satisfies the requirements of the
AIqulst-Prlolo Special Studies Act. The recommendations of the report
shall be Conditions of Approval for this project.
No, The project will not result in an increase in vehicle trips or an
increase in auto emissions. The nature of the project is not such that
it will attract substantial volumes of new traffic to the region.
No. The project will not involve any process which would create
objectionable odors or cause any alterations in the cllmate.
No. The site is not located near any streams or bodies of water.
Drainage will be directed to streets or to drainage facilities. The
project does not include any structure or excavation which would alter
the flow of direction of ground water.
STAFFRPT\CUP2 8
Yes. Increased runoff due to the addition of impermeable surfaces will
be accommodated by drainage facilities as approved by the Engineering
Department.
Yes. During construction, the proposed project will increase turbidity
in local surface water. This impact is temporary and is not considered
significant.
3.g.
No. The project will be served by the Rancho Water District and will
not involve any direct withdrawals or additions to ground water. Due
to the limited depth of excavation for soil replacement and compaction,
it is unlikely that ground water will be encountered.
3.i.
No. The site is not located in a flood zone.
u,.a-d.
No. No unique, rare, or endangered plant species have been identified
in the area in which the site is located. The possible introduction of
new species of plants to the site as part of the required landscaping is
not considered a significant impact. The site is not used for any
agricultural crops.
Yes. The subject site is located within the area designated by
Riverside County as habitat for the endangered Stephen~s Kangaroo
Rat. The impact of development within the Kangaroo Rates habitat will
be mitigated by paying fees which will contribute to the implementation
of Riverside Courtryes Habitat Conservation Plan.
Yes. On-site noise levels will increase temporarily during construction
and in the long term due to increased traffic volumes. This is not
considered a significant impact because the surrounding land uses are
not noise sensitive and noise levels are unlikely to exceed State daily
average noise level standards.
6.b.
No. The proposed project and existing and future surrounding land
uses are commercial in nature and will not create severe noise levels.
Yes. The proposed project is located within the Mt. PaiDmar
Observatory Street Lighting Policy Area. In order to prevent
"skyglow" interference with the Mt. PaiDmar telescope, low pressure
sodium vapor lighting shall be used.
No. The proposed project is consistent with the designation of the site
and its vicinity for commercial land uses.
9.a.b.
No. The project will not result in a substantial increase in the rate of
consumption of any natural or non-renewable natural resource.
10.a.
Yes. The proposed automotive center will involve the use of motor oil
and mey involve the use of other hazardous aubsta~,'-t. The applicant
shall provide a list of hazardous substances which will or may be used
on the site end a submit a plan for their disposal to the' County Health
Department.
STAFFRPT\CUP2 9
lO.b.
Maybe. If closure of a lane on Ynez Road during construction is
necessary, emergency vehicle response may be inhibited. Any street
or lane closures during construction shall be coordinated with the Police
and Fire Departments.
11,12.
Maybe. The project will provide additional jobs and could attract more
population to the area, However, the number of new jobs created will
probably not exceed 100, and at least some of the jobs will be taken by
current residents of the area, The increase in population and demand
for housing in the area due to this project are unlikely to be a
significant impact.
13.a.
No. The on-site parking provided is adequate to meet the needs of the
proposed land uses.
13.b.
13.c,d,e.
Yes. The proposed automotive center is required by Ordinance 3~8 to
provide 230 parking spaces. The proposed site plan shows 171 parking
spaces and no loading zones. The potential for on-site peak hour
circulation and parking impaction is high and could cause retail
customers to attempt to park on adjacent properties.
No. The project will not impact public transportation systems, air'
water, or rail traffic, or alter present patterns of circulation.
l~.aob,
e,f.
Yes. The proposed project will require public services in the areas of
police, fire, road maintenance, and public facilities, Fire impact
mitigation fees and property taxes will provide adequate mitigation for
the additional need for public services generated by the project.
Maybe. Any impact on schools or recreational facilities resulting from
an increase in population due to new employment opportunities will be
mitigated by Conditions of Approval upon new housing.
15.a,b.
No. The proposed project will not result in a substantial use or
increase in demand for fuel or cther energy sources.
16.a-f.
No. The proposed project will not result in a need for substantial
alterations of existing utility systems.
17 .a,b.
Maybe, The project will involve the use of mr oli and may involve
the use of other hazardous substances. A list of hazardous materials
which will or may be used at the site and a disposal plan shall be
submitted to the City and to the County Department of Environmental
Health Services.
18.
Maybe. The proposed project will nct obstruct any scenic view
currently available to the public, However, the site is located adjacent
to the 1-15 scenic highway corridor. Building materials, colors, and
free-standing signage shall be compatible with the natural environment
and existing development. Free-standing signs shall be the minimum
size necessary for identification, The landscaping adjacent to the 1-15

right-ot-way shall be substantial and shall provide significant
screening of the site from view from the freeway.
No. The site is not currently used for recreational purposes and is not
located in or near a potential recreational trail alignment,
Maybe. The site is located in an area of paleontologlcal sensitivity and
near an area of sensitivity for archaeological resources. The developer
shall retain a qualified vertebrate paleontologist to develop a site-
specific program to mitigate potential impacts to paleontologic
resources. The program shall include monitoring of excavation,
preparation and curation of specimens, and a report of findings with a
complete specimen inventory.
Maybe. The project will not degrade the environment. Any potential
reduction in StephenIs Kangaroo Rat habitat would be compensated by
participation in the Kangaroo Rat habitat conservation program.
No. Long term project generated traffic impacts will be mitigated by
planned street improvements.
Maybe. The project could contribute to the existing poor level of.
service at the intersection of Ynez Road and Solana Way if it is occupiecj
prior to construction of street improvements at the intersection. The
project would increase southbound through traffic by 10% and
southbound traffic turning left on Solana Way by 13%. These are
relatively small impacts, but will aggravate the poor level of service due
to existing traffic and projected traffic due to other projects and
growth in the area. The poor level of service will be mitigated by
construction of street improvements which will probably occur in
approximately 12 months.
Maybe. The project will involve the disposal of used motor oil. Used
oll will be recycled and will not be disposed in a manner which will
pollute soil or ground water. The use of any other hazardous materials
will require a clearance from the County Department of I-lealth.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
On the basis of this initial evaluation:
I find that the prel~sed project COULD NOT have I significant
effect on the environment, and a NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be
prepared.
I find that although the proposed project c~uld have a signi-
ticant effect on the environment, there will not be a signi-
ficant effect in this case because the mitigation measures
described on attached sheeta 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.

Dear Matthew=
As you know, we have been w~rking on this project since Aprll
of 1989. In October of 1990 we received our plot plen approval £or
~he project and in February of 1991 we received a loan commitment
from our bank to fund the pro~eet. Subsequently/ in approximately
July of 1991 we determined that the bank could not meet its
commitment for our financing. I~ appeered that wa were to become
one more casualty of this almost impossible fir~ancing marka~.
However since that time we reetructured our project, infused more
capital into it and have, as of March 1992, received a new loan
commitment from North County Bank.
Since we were aware of this financing p=oblem in September of
1991 we applied for an extensio~ of time for our conditional use
permit #2 which was to expire on October 10, 1991. After filing
this request for extension we were under the impression that our
request had been approved for another twelve month period.
However. upon visiting your office in March you informed us tha~
our request for extension of time had not been approved since ~his
request had ~ot been noticed. I pointed out that I was not aware
that the notice was required since no one on the staff had informed
uS Of this requirement. Since you have made us aware of this
requirement we are now preparing the documents necessary to attend
a public hearing to request an extension of time for our plot plan
permit. I understand that the require~ 10 da~ public notice has
been served and we'll be attending a meeting on April 20th to
formally request this extension. Should you need any further
information please feel free to contact me at (519) 587-1~85.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
Pursuant to applicable portions of the California Envinmmental Qua/ity Act (CBQA), an Initial
Study was prepared for Plot Plan No. 239 which determined the project in question will not have
a significant impact on the built or natural environment; a Negative Declantion was adopted for
the project.
A reaf~n~ation of this Negative Declaration is recommended for Tentative Parcel Map No.
27336.
There is a reasonable probability that Tentative Parcel Map No. 27336 will be consistent
with the City's future General Plan, which will be completed in a reasonable time and
in accordance with State hw. The project, as condi~oned, conforms with existing
applicable city zoning o~dinances and development standards. Further, the proposal is
charactel4jstic of similar development approved by the City to date and anticipated in it's
vicinity based on current development trends.
There is not a likely pwbability of substavtial detriment to, or interference with the
City's future General Plan, if the proposed use is ultimately inconsistent with the Plan.
The project is compatible with existing development standards which will likely be
included in the City's future General Plan.
The proposed use or action as conditioned complies with State planning and zoning hws.
Reference local Ordinances No. 348, 460; and California Governmental Code Sections
65000-66009 (Planning and Zoning Law).
The project as designed and conditioned will not adversely affect the public health or
weftare.
The proposal will not have an adverse effect on surrounding properties which are vacant
now. It does not represent a significant change to the present or planned land use of the
area and the SWAP designation of Light Industrial. As conditioned, the project conforms
with applicable land use and development reguhtions.

BACKGROUND
This R~version to Acreage was a Condition of Approval for Plot Plan No. 239. This condition
required the applicant to record a parcel map prior to issuanc~ of building permits for the plot
plan in order to ensure that no builaings crossed property lines. Plot Plan No. 239 was
approved by the City Council on November 26, 1991. This approval allowed conslxuction of
a 40,000 square foot two (2) story office building, a 13,000 square foot single story warehouse
structure, a 20,000 sq. are foot single story operations maintellallce Mildillg, a service vehicle
storage yard with 250 parking spaces and an employee and visitorparklng area with 287 spaces.
PROJECT DESION
Parcel No. 27336 will combine 11 parcels into one (1) parcel. The approval of this project will
satisfy Condition No. 39 for Plot Plan No. 239.
ANALYSIS
Pursuant to Section 504 of the Uniform Building Code (UBC), the applicant is required to
eliminate the property lines curren~y existing on the project site to prohibit single structures
from creossing preperty lines. The Sub4:h'vision Map Act refers to this procedure as Reversion
to Acreage and it ¢nmii~ redescription of the propony reflecting the project site as a single
parcel.
EXISTING ZONING, FUTURE GENERAL PLAN AND SWAP CONSISTENCY
The project, as conditioned, conforms with existing zoning and subdivision ordinances affecting
the subject property, and is compatible with the Southwest Area Plan (SWAP) land use
designations of Light Industrial. The proposal is also compatible with existing and anticipated
development in its immediate vicinity. As such, Tentative Parcel Map No. 27336 will likely be
consistent with the City's General Plan recommendations for the property in question, upon the
Plan' s final adoption.

Section I. Findings.
following findings:
That the Temecuh planning Commission hereby makes the
A. Pursuant to Government Code Section 65360, a newly incorporated city shall
adopt a general plan within thirty (30) months following incorporation. During that 30-month
period of time, the city is not subject to the requirement that a genera/plan be adopted or the
requirements of state hw that its decisions be consistent with the general plan, if all of the
following requirements axe met:
general plan.
1. The city is proceeding in a timely fashion with the pn~cnration of the
2. The planning agency finds, in appwving projects and taking other actions,
including the issuance of building permits, each of the following:
2. That thc design or improvement of the proposed land division is consistent
with applicable general and specific pinn.~:
3. That the site of the proposed land division is physically suitable for the
type of development.
4. That the site of the proposed land division is physically suitable for the
proposed density of the development.
5. That the design of the proposed hnd division or proposed improvements
are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substavtlnlly and unavoidably injure
fish or wildllfe or their habitat.
6. That the design of the proposed land division or the type of improvements
are not likely to cause serious public health problems.
7. That the design of the proposed land division or 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 lnnd division. A land division may be approved if it is found that
alternnte easements for access or for use will be provided and that they will be substavtinlly
equivalent to ones previously acquired by the public. This subsection shnll apply only to
easements of record or to easements established by judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction.
E. The pinnnln~ Commission in recommending appwval of the proposed Tentative
Parcel Map, makes the following findings, to wit:
1. There is a reasonable pwbability that Tentative Parcel Map No. 27336 will
be consistent with the City's future General Plan, which will be completed in a reasonable time
and in accordance with State hw. The pwject, as conditioned, confonns with existing
applicable city ZOning ordinances and development standards. Further, the proposal-is
chaxacteristic of Simihr development approved by the City to date and anticipated in it's vicinity
based on current development trends.
2. There is not a likely pwbability of substantial detriment to, or intexference
with the City's future General Plan, if the proposed use is ultimately inconsistent with the Plan.
The project is compatible with existing development standards which will likely be included in
the City's future General Plan.
3. The proposed use or action as cunditioned complies with State planning
and ZOning hws. Reference local Ordinances No. 348, 460; and California Governmental Code

2.a,b,c.
No. Construction is not proposed at depths sufficient to adversely affect
geologic substructures of the site. Similarly significant grading/fill
activities are not proposed - no significant impacts.
Yes. Compaction and overcovering of soil is necessary to implement the
proposal. The relatively nominal scale of this project does not indicate
likelihood of significant impacts on regional topography or soil
characteristics.
No. Reference Items 1 .a and 1 .b. The subject site is essentially level at
present. Further, fill activities of significance are not proposed.
No. No unique geologic or topographic features currently exist on the
subject site.
N0. Nominal alterations in regional surface erosion patterns can be
expected if this project is eventually realized. Proposed additional on-site
structures and paving will likely reduce erosion at the project site;
resulting in additional off-site drainage discharge volumes. Impacts on
regional drainage characteristics are insignificant as mitigated by project
specific drainage conveyances. (Reference City of Temecula Engineering
Department Conditions of Approval.)
No. Construction is not proposed that would logically affect distant
beach sands. Neither should the project produce deposition/erosion
potentially modifying stream channels or lake beds.
No. The subject sits is. not affected by known earthquake, landslide,
mudslide or ground failure hazards. Further, all proposed fill/compaction
and subsurface construction shall conform to applicable City and Uniform
Building Code standards.
No. Addition of localized air pollutants will result from increased vehicle
traffic accessing the project site with little or no noticeable regional
impacts. Short term increases in localized pollutants and associated
noxious odors are likely during construction activities. Impacts are not
considered significant regionally.
$\STAFFRP"i'%239.PP 3 5

21. Mandatory Findings of Significance.
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?
X
X
X
S\STAFFRPT~23S,PP 34
Animal Life
5.8'C,
No. Minor losses of common urban specieS, e.g., small lizards, insects,
rodents, and their habitats may result from this project. Numerically and
qualitatively, these losses are considered environmentally insignificant.
Further, if not previously paid, the applicant is required to submit
Stephen's Kangaroo Rat habitat procurement fees in the amount
specified by City ordinance. Such monies are to be used for purchase
of suitable habitat for the Kangaroo Rat as it is gradually displaced due
to generalized development of the Temecula Valley. This proposal
contributes incrementally to regional displacement of the Kangaroo Rat.
Noise
6.a.
Maybe. Minor increases in local ambient noise levels will occur.
No. subsequent to project implementation and commercial/industrial
occupancy of the project site. Area-wide noise impacts will be
insignificant. Proposed hours of operation shall conform with normal
business hours of operations, generally considered to be between 7:00
A.M. and 8:00 P.M. Short term construction noise levels generated may ·
result in temporary localized disturbances considered insignificant as
adjacent properties are currently vacant.
Liaht and Glare
No. While the project could potentially impact night skies, the proposal
is required to comply with applicable City/Palomar Observatory lighting
policies and ordinance(s). These policies and ordinances address
potential night-sky lighting impacts of development proposals that might
logically affect activities of the Mr. Palomar Astronomical Observatory.
Land Use
No. The project is consistent with underlying land use ordinances and
Southwest Area Plan guidelines affecting the subject property. No
change in Land Use designations is proposed in conjunction with this
project; no anticipated impacts.
Natural Resources
9.a,b.
No. The proposal is of limited scale and will not logically deplete
substantial amounts of renewable or non-renewable natural resources.

No. The proposed structure is not located within defined marine or fresh

No. Currently permeable ground will be rendered impervious as a result
of this proposal. Consequently, surface runoff and absorption rates on
the proje~jt site itself will change. Site drainage shall conform with plans
approved by the City of Temecula. Necessary improvements to effect
proper site drainage shall be as indicated in the attached drainage plans
and project conditions of approval. No significant impacts on drainage
patterns are anticipated. Reference also Item 1 .e.
NO. Plans proposed at this time indicate no potential adverse on or off
site flooding impacts. Proposed drainage plans and all related necessary
improvements shall be as specified by the City Engineering Department.
No. Increased runoff from the project site may nominally increase
surface levels and turbidity of off-site bodies of water with no impacts
of significance.
NO. Reduced permeation at the project site may eventually affect
underlying groundwater. Impacts of this project individually are
considered insignificant.
NO, Water consumption rates typical of small commercial/industrial
projects is proposed. All water consumption activities are subject to
monitoring and allowances specified by the applicable purveyor.
Proposed vehicle washing activities shall utilize recycled water per
applicable local and state requirements, Landscaping and irrigation shall
respect current drought conditions affecting the City as specified in the
project Conditions of Approval and exhibited by the proposed project
landscape and irrigation plan concepts.
NQ, Reference Item No. 3.c.
No. The project site is currently barren of all vegetation, new plant
species which may be introduced as a result of required site landscaping
cannot be considered invasive because of the referenced lack of existing
on-site vegetation. Similarly, no impacts are anticipated on agricultural
assets.

Maybe. Increases in traffic generated by this proposai may consequently
increase the possibility of traffic accidents. Impacts are likely to be
unnoticeable in view of the proposal's limited scope and proposed
infrastructure improvements supporting the project.
Public Services
14. a-c.
Maybe. New commercial/industrial development may generate at least
nominal increased demands for police and fire protection services, utility
I~rovisions and, indirectly, schools. Mitigation is realized through project-
specific building permit fees, assessment districts, property taxes, and
similar funding mechanisms.
14.d.
Maybe. Construction is not proposed which will directly impact schools
or parks. However, the applicant is required by state law to contribute
applicable school fees as partial mitigation for secondary impacts on
school systems resulting from the commercial/industrial development
proposed.
14.e.
Yes. Construction of new roads and associated increases in road
maintenance activities in the immediate vicinity of the proposal will be
required due to proportionate increases in traffic generated locally.
Mitigation of such impacts are as specified by the City Public Works
Department in the project's Conditions of Approval, attached.
14.f.
No. Impacts on other governmental services have not been identified at
this time.
Energy
15.a,b. N0. Reference Item Nos. 9.a. and b.
Utilities
16.a-f.
N0. Service line extensions and increased demands can be expected for
the utilities referenced. The facility itself supports regional water
acquisition and distribution activities. No significant impacts are
anticipated.
Human Health
17.a,b.
Nq. The project does not include introduction of potential health hazards
of significance to the region; nor are there existing identified health
hazards at the project site. Potential hazards associated-with use and
storage of toxic materials on the subject site are mitigated per the
attached project Conditions of Approval.
S~STAFFRPT~239.PP 39
Risk of UPSet
lO.a,b.
N0. Use and storage of hazardous substances e.g. waste oil/petroleum
products proposed has been reviewed and approved in concept by the
Riverside County Fire Department and the Riverside County Department
of Environmental Health Services. Potential risk of upset involving
hazardous substances e.g. fuel, oil, petroleum wastes, is reduced to
insignificance through compliance with the attached project Conditions
of Approval.
Population
11.
No. The project does not contain population relocation elements.
Housing
12.
No. No housing is proposed to be added nor deleted.
Transportation/Circulation
13.a,c.
No. Commercial/industrial construction of relatively limited scale is
proposed, generating similarly limited amounts of destination traffic.
Traffic generated will consist primarily of daily Rancho California Water
District operations vehicles and commuting employees. Nominal
amounts of visitor traffic can also be expected. Regionally, traffic
impacts of this individual project are determined to be insignificant.
Further, the project is required to contribute monies to area-wide, as well
as localized public improvements {e.g., signalization mitigation)
proportionate to the proposal's anticipated impacts as determined by the
City Public Works Department.
13.b.
Yes. In compliance. with City ordinance and project specific
requirements,the project provides a total of 537 additional off-street,-
improved parking spaces as referenced in the proposal's Conditions of
Approval (attached), and as indicated on Staff Report Exhibit D.
13.d.
No. The project will attract additional destination traffic, primarily
employees and service vehicles, to the subject site upon its
implementation. Impacts on regional circulation patterns are expected
to be insignificant given the proposal's limited scale. Reference also
Item 13.a.
13.e.
NO. The project is not in a location which will logically affect
waterborne, rail or air traffic, nor does it propose addition-3r deletion of
such facilities.

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-
ticant 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.

NO. 348 PERTAINING TO THE REGULATION OF
TEMPORARY SIGNS."
APPLICATION INFORMATION
APPLICANT:
City of Temecula
PROPOSAL:
An Ordinance establishing standards to allow Temporary Signs.
LOCATION: Citywide
BACKGROUND
Beginning in early August, 1991, City Staff conducted enforcement activities against illegal signs
in commercial areas of the City. The enforcement campaign resulted in letters of violation being
sent to a large number of business owners who had erected banners, sandwich boards, and other
illegal temporary signs. Under Section 19.2 of Ordinance 348, these types of signs are not
allowed. Because of the large number of businesses affected by the enforcement action, the City
Council received a number of complaints from local business owners about the City's decision
to enforce the Sign Ordinance.
To respond to the concerns raised by the business community, the City Manager invited
members of the business community to discuss the issues of temporary signage on September
30, 1991. At that meeting, a number of business repeated the concerns raised before the City
Council. As a result of this meeting, the City Manager agreed to establish a Temporary Sign
Committee, composed of business people and members of the City's Planning and Building
Departments, to develop appropriate standards for temporary signs. The representatives of the
business community included realtors, property managers, business owners, a sign manufacturer,
and a representative of the Chamber of Commerce.
SXSTAFFRP'D, TEMPSIGN.PC
Following this discussion, the Committee began to identify which type of temporary signs were
appropriate and inappropriate. As a result of this discussion, the Committee arrived at a
consensus which provided the foundation for the item discussed at the January 24th Committee
meeting. The following Table contains a summary of the Committee consensus from December
5th meeting.
TYPES OF TEIVIPORARY SIGNS
ALLOWED? WHEN?
A-Frames No
Banners-
Interim (until a permanent sign
is av~filable) Yes
Opening Y~
Promotional Yes
On a limited basis for a
limited time
Pennants, Company Hags, and Yes
Balloons
Field Mounted-
Onsite Not discussed
Of f site No
With special events, for a
limited time
Vehicle Mounted No
Window-
Painted Yes
Paper, cardboard Yes
Electric Yes
Up to I0 and 25 % of the
window area
Based upon the Temporary Sign Committee's preliminary consensus, and with the guidance and
direction from the Temporary Sign Committee, City Staff developed draft temporary sign
standards for the January 24, 1992, meeting. Listed below are the lists of appropriate and
inappropriate temporay signs.
Appropriate Temporary Signs are:
1. Interim signs: for new businesses until a permanent sign is available;
2. Promotional signs: for special sales events and promotions;
3. Grand opening signs: to announce a business grand opening; and,
4. Special event signs: for temporary, seasonal, or community events.
Inappropriate Temporary Signs are:
1. A-Frames and other portable signs;
2. Off-site signs; and,
3. Vehicle mounted signs.

DISCUSSION
The Temporax~ Sign Committee met three times, on December 5, 1991, lanuary 24, 1992, and
April 8, 1992, to formulate appropriate standards for temporary signs. Throughout the process,
the Committee worked to arrive at a consensus of what were the most reasonable approaches and
standards to regulate temporary signage.
The December 5th meeting was instrumental in formulating the direction and approach to
temporary signs. The Committee members that were present discussed a wide range of issues
and concerns. The Committee's consensus provided the direction for subsequent meetings and
the draft ordinance. The following is a summary of the issues, concerns, ideas, and
opportunities that represent the consensus of the Committee.
1. The differences between business identification and advertising.
2. That temporary signs can provide unfair competition.
3. That all businesses must be equally treated.
4. That temporary signs obstruct the visibility of other business and signs.
5. That temporaxy signage is not an intended to compensate for a cheap, low visibility
location, or for poor marketing or business decisions.
6. That too much signage gives the impression the image of a "low quality" community, and
creates visual blight and clutter.
7. That special standards are needed for old town.
8. The permitting process for temporary signs should be an easy, reasonable, and ideally,
an over-the-counter approval.
9. That enforcement could be made easier through the use of a stick-on temporary permit
with an easy-m-read expiration date.
10. That the City could provide signs for new businesses, such as "GRAND OPENING" or
"TH]~ CITY OF TEMECULA WELCOMES "
11. That color or style preferences should only be guidelines.
12. That seasonal displays (eg. Christmas, Thanksgiving, etc.) should not be regulated if they
do not contain any advertising, sale or business information.
13. That the standards need to provide specific requirements and to be flexible enough to
allow reasonable extensions.
CONCLUSION
The proposed Temporary Sign Ordinance that is attached to this Staff Report represents the
consensus of the members of the Temporary Sign Committee who artended the meetings.
Because the proposed Ordinance represents a consensus, not all the Committee members were
in complete agreement with every provision. However, when taken as a whole, the members
of the members of the Committee, except as noted above, were satisfied with the provisions and
requirements contained in the draft Ordinance.
The process of developing has been time consuming and lengthy. It would have been faster for
the City Manager to request that staff prepare the Ordinance without outside input. Instead a
committee composed of business people and City Staff was created to work together to develop
these standards. This collaboration between representatives of the public and private sectors has
resulted in regulations that are both reasonable and implementable.
The proposed amendment to the Sign Ordinance will provide uniform standards to regulate
temporary signs within the City. These uniform standards will:
Enhance the image of Temecula as a high-quality community;
Prevent visual blight and clutter and promote tourism; and,
Enhance the property values in commercial and service districts.
The proposed Temporary Sign Ordinance will provide the City with the standards to allow
appropriate types of temporary signs, allow for a simplified and streamlined permitting, and
establish for a minimal fee for Temporary Signs Permits. The Ordinance as proposed, includes
the requirement that promotional, grand opening, and interim temporary sign be attached to the
building. The proposed Ordinance will not apply to For Sale, Lease or For Rent Signs allowed
pursuant to by Section 19.5.
The Temporary Sign Ordinance amends the City's current Sign Ordinance and would serve as
interim regulations until the City's Zoning Development Code is prepared and adopted, at which
time this Ordinance could be incorporated and/or modified into the final Zoning Development
Code.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
This Ordinance will allow for the use of temporary signs for limited periods in existing
commercial areas. The proposed Ordinance does not have the potential to cause a significant
affect on the environment. Therefore, Staff has determined that the project is exempt from
CEQA under Section 15061 (b) (3).
FINDINGS
That the proposed Temporary Sign Ordinance will enhance the image of Temecula as a
high quality community.
At the January 24th meeting, the Committee reviewed and discussed the draft standards and
arrived at a consensus that represented general agreement among the Committee members
present. It was stated at both the lanuary 24th and April 8th meetings, that the regulation of
legal For Sale, Lease or For Rent (real estate) Signs were regulated by Section 19.5 of
Ordinance 348, and therefore are not intended to be part of this Ordinance.
The Committee's consensus included increasing the number of allowable promotional and grand
opening signs for businesses with frontage on two or more arterial streets up to 2 signs,
simplifying the S'LT.e requirements for promotional and grand opening signs, and a number of
other minor corrections and adjustments. At the end of the meeting of January 24, 1992, the
Committee requested that City Staff revise the matrix based upon the consensus of the
Committee, draft written descriptions of the Committee' s consensus, and fmalize the definitions
for Temporary Signs. With this direction, City Staff revised the matrix and prepared written
definitions and standards for the Temporary Sign Committee.
The Temporary Sign Committee met on April 8th and discussed the written descriptions and
definitions prepared by City Staff. The written descriptions and definitions are shown in
Attachment 3. At the meeting, the Committee arrived at a consensus that the revised standards
and definitions were acceptable and represented reasonable temporary sign regulations. The one
area of disagreement concerned the requirement that promotional, grand opening, and interim
signs must be attached to the building where the business activity or use occurs. The
requirement for temporary signs to be attached, resulted in a "split consensus" within the
Committee. The Committee members in favor of the requirement felt that prohibiting detached
temporary signs would limit the opportunities for blocking the view of other businesses and their
signs, reduce the visual clutter, simplify the permitting process, and make temporary (as well
as permanent signage) more effective. The Committee members which were opposed to the
requirement stated that they felt that detached temporary signs would be more effective and
could be located closer to the street.
It is Staffs opinion that detached temporary signs could increase visual clutter along the
streetscapes in commercial areas of the City. In addition requiring signs to be attached to the
buildings should simplify and streamline the permit approval process by enabling staff to conduct
mostly over-the-counter approvals and by allowing most business owners to receive permits with
only a single visit to City Hall. In contrast, the permitting process .for the detached temporary
signs would require precise plotting of temporary sign locations, create additional work for
applicants, and result in need for additional inspections and permit processing.
A minimal foelow cost) fee is proposed for temporary sign permits to improve the ease of
obtaining a temporary sign permit. The concept for proposing a minimal fee for Temporary
Sign Permits is based upon the assumption that Promotional, Grand Opening, and Interim Signs
will always be attached to the building.

2. That the Temporary Sign Ordinance, as proposed, will not result in visual blight and
clutter.
That the proposed Temporary Sign Ordinance will enhance and maintain property values
in commercial areas of the City.
There is reasonable probability that the proposed Temporary Sign Ordinance will be
consistent with the Ci~y's future General Plan, which will be completed in a reasonable
time and in accordance with the goals and/or policies of the City' s future General Plan.
There is not a likely probability of substantial detriment to, or interference with the
future General Plan, if the proposed policies are ultimately inconsistent with the plan,
due to the fact that policies will be adopted for the new General Plan. Therefore, it is
likely that the City will consider these policies during their preparation of the General
Plan.
FUTURE GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
Staff finds it probable that the proposed Temporary Sign Ordinance will be consistent with the
General Plan when it is adopted since the Community Design Element will address community
design and aesthetic issues, including axchitecture, landscaping and signage.

Paloma Del Sol, m~t Side Maps, Extensions of Time,
Vesting Tentative Tract Maps 24182, 24184, 24185, 24186, 24187, 24188
This item has been brought forward for Planning Commission review and discussion as an
informational item and requires no action at this time. Staff is requesting input and direction
from the Planning Commission on issues that the applicant and Staff have not come to an
agreement on. After receiving input from the plnnning Commission, Staff will work with the
applicant on these issues and the tentative maps will be revised and the Extensions of Time will
be brought back to Planning Commission as Public Hearing items for further consideration.
BACKGROUND
The Riverside County Board of Supervisors approved the east side maps on September 26, 1989.
These maps were due to expire on September 26, 1991 and the applicant fried timely extension
of time requests with the City on August 27, 1991. Since that time the applicant and Staff have
been negotiating on parks and open space issues and a Memorandum of Understanding (IViOU)
was approved by the City Council on January 31, 1992 to address those issues (refer to
Attachment No. 1 ).
A Development lt_eview Committee (DRC) was held on January 30, 1992 and Sis comments
were mailed to the applicant on February 25, 1992 at the DRC meeting, the applicant was
informed of inconsistencies between the maps and the Specific Plan. The applicant responded
to Sis comments on March 9, 1992 at a meeting at City Hall. In that meeting the applicant
agreed to comply with most of the issues raised by Staff. However, some issues remain
unsolved and Staff and the applicant have not come to an agreement on how to resolve these
issues to bring the maps into conformance with the Specific Plan. As a result, this item has
been brought forward to planning Commission to identify the issues that remain unsolved. Staff
requests direction on how to solve the remaining issues.
Staff has contacted the School District on this issue and they have indicate~ that Mesa Homes
has signed an agreement with the School District to provide ten (10) net acres for these school
sites.
Staff Recommendation
The tentative maps need to be redcsigned by eliminating some lots to provide the school district
with two ten (10) net acre sites.
AppHcant's Position
The applicant wishes to waive this requirement by amending the Specific Plan.
Landscape Develonment Zone (LDZ's)
The LDZ's are defined as a landscaped area extending from face of the curb outward;
therefore, they include a portion of the fight-of-way. The LDZ's are required along all axterials
(66 feet ROW) and larger streets. Most of the maps approved by the County did not meet the
Specific Plan requirement for LDZ's; however, the applicant has agreed to revise all of the
maps to comply with the Specific Plan requirements with the exception of the LDZ for
Butterfield Stage Road on Tract 24188.
The required LDZ for Butterfield Stage Road is thirty two (32) feet (refer to Exhibk C) which
includes twelve (12) feet in the ROW and twenty (20) feet outside the ROW. The minimum
LDZ shown outside the ROW on Tract 24188 is ten (10) feet which consistently accrues all
along the west side of Butterfield Stage Road. (Refer to Exhibit D).
The Cwwnhill Map (Tract 23143) had the same requirement for the LDZ along Butterfield Stage
Road. Their map which is in review for a Second Extension of Time did not meet this
requirement either. They have agreed to redesign their map to bring it into conformance with
the required thirty two (32) feet of LDZ. It should be noted that the Paioma Del Sol maps ~
further along in the plan check process than the Crownhill Map.
Staff Recommendation
The Butterfield Stage Road LDZ (32 feet) needs to be reflected on the tentative maps as required
by the Specific Plan.
AppHcant's Position
Twenty two (22) feet of landscaping is sufficient along Butterfield Stage Road. The ten (10) foot
increase in the LDZ will not ereate a noticeable difference in the street scape. The cost of re-
engineering the map will not be economically feasible. Therefore, the Specific Plan will need
to be amended to allow the reduction of the LDZ to twenty two (22) feet.
DISCUSSION
While reviewing these maps, it was brought to Staff's attention that fmal maps had already been
engineered and are almost ready to be recorded. It should be stressed that staffs review was a
result of the direct interpretation of the Specific Plan and was not an objective review and did
not reflect Staff's personal preferences. The following section identifies the inconsistencies of
these maps with the Specific Plan and it also points out Staff recommendations and the
applicant's position on each issue.
INCONSISTENCIES OF ~ MAPS AND TYIY, SPECWIC PLAN.
Acoustical Study
All the tracts were conditioned by the County to submit an Acoustical Study prior to issuance
of building permits and mitigate interior noise levels to 45 Ldn. The certified EIR indicates that
in addition to interior noise level mitigation, further mitigation is necessary to reduce the exterior
noise levels to 65 Ldn. The laIR indicates the requirement of this study at a more detailed stage
of development if it is deemed necessa_nj by the County (refer to Attachment No. 2).
Staff feels the study should be done prior to approval of the extensions of time for these maps,
since the ~ indicates the 65 Lcln contours lines extend approximately one hundred and fifty
(150) feet from the ROW. This requirement might result in redesigning the tract maps or
making some lots unbuildable. On the other hand, ff the study is required prior to issuance of
building permits the mitigation measure could include substantially higher wails than is desirable
in the City.
Staff Recommendation
An Acoustical Study needs to be prepared prior to approval of the Extensions of Time and the
mitigation measures need to be incorporated in the project design to reduce the exterior noise
levels to 65 Ldn and the interior noise levels to 45 Ldn.
Applicant's Position
The applicant wishes to submit the study prior to issuance of building permits.
School Sites
The School District requires a minimum of ten (10) net acres for school sites. There are two
(2) school sites on Tracts 24186 and 24188 (refer to Exhibit B). These sites are ten (10) acres
net; however, the LDZ's on beth sites have not been shown on the maps. When the area of
these LDZ's are deducted from the sites, sites become unacceptable to the school district. There
is specific language in the Specific Plan that ff the school sites are not accepted by the school
district the sites will be developed as Single Family Dwellings.
S\3TAFFRFI~24181VTM.lK: 2
ATTACHMENT NO. 1
MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
Traffic Signals
The Public Works Department is requesting twelve (12) traffic lights throughout the maps (refer
to Exhibit E). The applicant has not agreed to this requirement. The requested signal locations
are at non-regional intersections and will not qualify for any signal mitigation fees paid by
developer.
Staff Recommendation
Traffic signals need to be histailed at locations specified on Exhibit "E" .
Applicant's Position
The MOU signed by the City and Bedford Properties states that no new conditions would be
imposed on these Maps. The requirements of traffic signals is a new condition which would not
be hi conformance with the MOU.

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
(Quimby Park Fees)
This Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") is entered
into by and between the City of Temecula ("City") and Bedford
Development Company and Mesa Homes (collectively "Bedford") to be
effective on January 31, 1992, with reference to the following:
RECITALS
A. Pursuant to California Government Code Section
65864, et seq. ("Development Agreement Statutes"), Bedford and
the County of Riverside ("County") entered into Development
Agreement No. 4 recorded in the Official Records of Riverside
County on November 7, 1988, as Instrument No. 325513
("Development Agreement").
B. The Development Agreement encompasses a project
formerly located within County approved Specific Plan No. 219
known as "Paloma Del Sol", a mixed use subdivision project to be
developed on property owned by Bedford which became a part of the
municipal boundaries of the City when the City incorporated on
December l, 1989.
C. Pursuant to the provisions of the Development
Agreement Statutes, the City became the successor-in-interest to
the County under the Development Agreement upon incorporation of
the City.
D. A dispute has arisen between the City and Bedford
over the amount of fees or land dedication for park or
recreational purposes Bedford is required to provide to City as
allowed under Section 66477 of the California Government Code
("Quimby Park Fees").
01-]0-9"Z 12221-00049
G:"4)OC\152\92010026,M02
E. On May 20, 1987, the County amended Ordinance
No. 460 authorizing the imposition of Quimby Park Fees.
Ordinance No. 460 required adoption of an implementation
resolution designating a recipient of the Quimby Park Fees. On
June 28, 1988, pursuant to Resolution No. 88-218, the County
designated CSA 143 as the recipient of Quimby Park Fees subject
to the adoption of a master plan. On June 27, 1989, pursuant to
Resolution No. 89-331, the County adopted a master plan for
CSA 143, establishing the Quimby Park Fees at three (3) acres per
1,000 new residents ("County Park Fee Standard").
F. Pursuant to Resolution No. 99-53, adopted on May
8, 1990, City has adopted Quimby Park Fees of five (5) acres of
land for parks and recreational purposes, or payment of fees in
lieu thereof, for every 1,000 people to reside in the proposed
subdivision ("City Park Fee Standard").
G. The City interprets the Development Agreement to
permit the imposition of increased Quimby Park Fees computed on
the City Park Fee Standard and has required Bedford to pay Quimby
Park Fees based on the City Park Fee Standard as a condition of
issuance of building permits for Paloma Del Sol. Bedford
disagrees with this position and interprets the provisions of the
Development Agreement to limit the City's authority to impose
Quimby Park Fees based on the park and open space .requirements of
Specific Plan No. 219.as approved by the County and incorporated
into the Development Agreement.
H. In order to avoid a legal challenge to the Quimby
Park Fees and to prevent the running of any relevant statutes of
limitation while attempts are being made to resolve this dispute,
Bedford and City have entered into a Standstill Agreement
effective on April 9, 1991, as amended ("Standstill Agreement").
01-30-92 12221-00049
G:"4)OC\152\92010026,H02 2
I. City and Bedford acknowledge that development of
Paloma Del Sol will result in a generation of significant
municipal revenue, public infrastructure facilities and the
enhancement of the quality of life, including recreation
facilities for present and future residents of the City. The
benefits to the City and Bedford contemplated by Paloma Del Sol
include:
the opportunity for a high quality
residential-commercial project creating
significant job opportunities, sales tax
and ad valorem tax revenues for the City
(2)
payment of substantial impact fees to be used
to solve City and regional traffic
infrastructure demands
(3) a payment of public facilities fees
(4)
participation in special assessment and/or
community facilities districts to finance
City and regional infrastructure improvements
the creation of significant park, recreation
and open space dedications for public use and
the protection of significant natural
resources
The City and Bedford acknowledge that due to the present
recession, none of these benefits to the City are possible unless
the Paloma Del Sol project goes forward. The parties further
acknowledge and agree that the present structure of fees and
private recreation and open space creates substantial impediments
to development of Paloma Del Sol.
01-30-rZ 12221-0004,~
G:'~OOC\152\92010026,M)2 3
J. Without admitting or determining any rights or
obligations as between City and Bedford, each to the other, with
respect to the amount of the Quimby Park Fees, and solely to
avoid the potential expense and inconvenience of protracted
litigation, and to balance the needs of the City to provide
adequate parks and recreational facilities with the difficulty of
land development in today's economy, City and Bedford agree to
settle this matter based on the terms and conditions of this
Memorandum of Understanding.
AGREEMENT
1. Amend Development AGreement. In accordance with
the procedures set forth in the Development Agreement Statutes,

provide that the park land and recreation
facilities to be dedicated to the City as

consistent with Specific Plan No. 219 and
this MOU.
2. Eastside Tract MAPS. City shall commence the
necessary proceedings in accordance with the Subdivision Map Act
to extend the Paloma Del Sol "Eastside" Tentative Tract Maps Nos.
24182, 24184, 24185, 24186, 24187 and 24188 with no new
conditions inconsistent with the terms of Specific Plan No. 219
and this MOU. Neither party waives its rights as to what
constitutes "consistency" with Specific Plan No. 219.
3. Cost of LitiGation. In the event the County seeks
to challenge the right of City and Bedford to enter into this MOU
or to amend the Development Agreement and institutes an action,
suit or proceeding to challenge this MOU or invalidate and/or
enjoin the enforcement of this MOU or the amendment to the
Development Agreement or take such other action(s) which result
in unreasonable delays in the development of the Paloma Del Sol
project, the parties agree to cooperate and participate in a
joint defense in any action against the parties, their officers,
agents and employees, from any and all such obligations,
liability, suit, claim, loss, judgment, lien, resulting from such
action(s) brought by County (but excluding actions to expunge any
lis pendens) and to share equally the costs associated with
attorneys' fees, costs and damages that the parties may incur as
a result of any such actions or lawsuit to challenge City and/or
Bedford's legal authority to enter into this MOU and/or amend the
Development Agreement. In the event the County prevails in any
such litigation after exhaustion of any procedural appeals, the
01-30-~ 12221-000~9
G:'~)OC\152\92010026,N02 6
provisions relating to the payment of Interim Public Facilities
Fees as set forth in this MOU and/or the amendment to the
Development Agreement shall terminate.
4. Public Facilities Fees Shortfall. In the event
the County prevails in any legal action or other proceeding to
challenge, set aside, or enjoin the enforcement of the amendment
to the Development Agreement and a court or other tribunal having
jurisdiction over the matter after all appeals are taken,
determines that Bedford and/or the City is liable to make up any
shortfall in the amount of the Public Facilities and Services
Mitigation fees owned by City and/or Bedford to County, then City
and Bedford shall each share equally in paying any such
shortfall.
5. Reimbursement of Fees. If prior to the amendment
to the Development Agreement and in the event Bedford is required
to pay public facilities fees and/or RSA fees in an amount
greater than the amount set forth in the amendment to the
Development Agreement, Bedford shall be entitled to reimbursement
of the difference in the amount of the fees paid within thirty
(30) days of the date of recordation of the Amendment to the
Development Agreement.
6. Parks. Greenbelts and Paseos. As additional
consideration for entering into this MOU, Bedford agrees to
dedicate, or cause to be dedicated, and City agrees to accept,
park land, greenbelts, slopes and paseos to the City equalling
approximately one hundred eighty six (186) acres subject to the
approval of the Paloma Del Sol Association ("Association") and
the California Department of Real Estate ("DRE") only as to those
parcels within the 186 acres shown on Exhibit "B" attached and
made a part hereof by this reference which are owned by the
Association or subject to an irrevocable escrow in favor of the
Association. If the Association and/or the DRE fail to approve
the transfer of the Phase I Parcels shown on Exhibit B to the
01-30-92 12221-0004.9
G:',,DOC\IS~\g2010026J~02 7
City and therefore such property is not conveyed to the City,
such failure to convey shall not prevent Bedford from satisfying
its Quimby Park Fee obligation nor affect any' other provision of
this MOU. The 186 acres are made up of the following five major
recreation areas as well as fifty five (55) acres of smaller in-
tract greenbelt paseos and eighty seven (87) acres of roadway
paseos, public parkway and slope landscaping. These areas are
shown on the attached Exhibit "A" incorporated herein and
described as follows:
(a) A seven and seventy-four hundredths (7.74)
acre park located in Tract 24133-2, Lot 114 ("7.74 Acre Park")
which consists of two baseball diamonds/soccer field combination

Air Quality
a. Existina Conditions/General Plan policies
A predominant wind direction from the coast (near Oceanside
and southern Orange County) gives the vicinity of the site
relatively clean air. Two sources of air fill the Perris
plain: a source originating over Orange and southern Los
Angeles Counties (the harbor area) which flows through
SantaAna Canyon and disperses into its peripheral canyons
(e.g., Temescal) by way of Riverside; and, a source origi-
nating along the coastline midway between Los Angeles and
San Diego which flows up the Santa Margarita River Canyon
(Temecula Canyon). Both are influenced by differences in
temperature and area sea breezes. The former, however,
possesses considerable air contaminants, while the latter
is relatively clean. These air masses meet in a zone,
trending approximately NNE-SSW, north of Sun city that
forms a visible discontinuity in air mass quality. While
the project area remains clear, cool and moist, areas less
than ten miles to the north may be inundated by smog.
Inversions of temperature commonly associated with air
pollution exist inland, but should not be compared on the
same terms with inversions in coastal areas where a heavy
marine layer is overlain by a subsiding, warm high pressure
air mass.
A more critical air pollution problem exists in the after-
noon hours when the sea breeze under-runs warmer air and
forces it aloft. If areas near the source of this mass
(northern San Diego, southern Orange County) become indus-
trialized, this flow will degenerate and infuse the
Murrieta Valley with air of low quality. When winds are
present, the inversion layer does not form, and atmospheric
mixing is sufficient to dissipate pollutants that can occur
when creating certain types of smog.
The project site lies within the South Coast Air Quality
Management District (SCAQMD), which maintains monitoring
stations throughout the County. The monitoring station
nearest the site with published data available is Perris
Air Quality Monitoring Station. Only quantities of oxidant
(ozone) are measured at that facility. At present, oxidant
is the most serious problem in the project area. As oxi-
dant is formed by a multi-step photochemical reaction
between oxides of nitrogen and reactive hydrocarbons,
extended periods of intense sunlight, which are charac-
teristic of the project area, contribute to the high
325
The Meadows a= Rancho California Specific Plan proposes an
expanded parkway system adjacent to all collector and
higher volume roadways. These parkways, which will vary in
width will provide landscaping, sidewalks, and community
"theme" walls. The parkways will serve as setbacks between
proposed uses and the vehicular noise occurring on project
roadways.
Relationship to General Plan Policies
l)
Due to the potential for on-site areas adjacent to
roadways to possess noise levels in excess of 65 CNEL,
a noise analysis may be required at a more detailed
stage of project development in order to insure that
all residences will comply with the County's require-
ment of a maximum interior noise level of 45 dBA. (See
"Mitigation".)
2) See No. i above.
3) The proposed project is not a significant noise pro-
ducer.
In accordance with the Rancho Villages Development Crite-
ria, dense sound absorbing walls, berms, and/or sethacks to
achieve exterior noise levels of 65 dB(A) Ldn and interior
noise levels of 45 dB(A) Ldn will be incorporated into the
project design, if necessary.
c. MitiGation
As discussed above, a noise analysis should be prepared by
an acoustical engineer at a more detailed stage of project
development, if deemed necessary by the County of River-
side.
324
Highway/Traffic/Noise
The most significant source of noise resulting from imple-
mentation of The Meadows at Rancho California Specific Plan
will be that associated with traffic. As discussed in
Section V.D.i., Ciroulation, an estimated 47,600 vehicle
trips per day will be generated at project build-out.
These trips will be primarily destined for State Route 79
to the south or will head north on Margarita Road and
Kaiser Parkway to reach Rancho California Road, which has
an interchange with Interstate 15. These.roadways will,
therefore, experience the greatest off-site noise impacts
due to project traffic.
Projected noise levels on Arterial Roads (Margarita Road,
De Portola Road and Butterfield Stage Road), Major Roads
(Kaiser Road) and Secondary Roads (Pauba Road) are indi-
cated in Table VI, Preliminary Noise Contours. These
contours are generated from the typical noise contours as
presented in the Comprehensive General Plan. Highway 79 to
the south Of the site is designated as a "Highway"; the
General Plan presents no noise contours for this classifi-
cation of roadway. The General Plan contour calculations
are based upon assumptions and estimates which, in all
probability, will be refined as more detailed information
becomes available. Moreover, these noise contour calcula-
tions assume no physical attenuation measures.

The Meadows at Rancho california Specific Plan does not
cause any of the above roadways to exceed the capacity of
their current designations per the Riverside County General
Plan Circulation Element. It is assumed that existing and
future land uses adjacent to these roadways have been
planned in consideration of the Preliminary Noise Contours
presented above; therefore, noise generated by project
traffic should not result in the creation of unacceptable
noise levels to existing or proposed off-site uses.
323
prepared by a qualified acoustical engineer and may be
required to provide mitigation from existing noise.
3)
Proposed projects which are noise producers shall be
required to have an acoustical engineer prepare a noise
analysis including recommendations for design mitiga-
tion, if the project is to be located within close
proximity to a noise sensitive land use or land zoned
for noise sensitive land uses.
The Rancho Villages Development Criteria states that, "In
order to protect residential areas from ground based noise
generated by highways and commercial or industrial activi-
ties, dense sound absorbing walls, berms, and/or setbacks
to achieve axterior noise levels of 65 dB(A) Ldn are re-
quired. All new residential structures shall ensure a
maximum interior noise level of 45 dB(A) Ldn."
In addition, bo~/1 Policy Plan Areas C and D are shown as
possessing "Noise potential - 65 CNEL" along Pauba Road,
Rancho Vista Road, Butterfield Stage Road, Santiago Road,
De Portold Road and Margarita Road.
b. Pro~ect Immacts/Relationshim to General Plan Policies
Implementation of The Meadows at Rancho California Specific
Plan will result in increased noise levels due to
construction equipment, motor vehicle traffic and
statichal%, sources. The ambient noise levels on the site
would be increased to levels which characterize most
suburban areas. The various noise impacts resulting from
project development are discussed below:
Construction Noise
Construction noise represents a short-term impact on ambi-
ent noise levels. Noise generated by construction equip-
ment, including trucks, graders, bulldozers, concrete
mixers and portable generators can reach high levels.
Construction equipment noise comes under the control of the
Environmental Protection Agency's Noise Control Program
(Part 204 of Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations).
Presently, air compressors are the only equipment under
strict regulations, and no new regulations are currently
under consideration.
Noise levels for equipment which might be used for the
excavation and construction of the proposed project range
from approximately 65 to 105 dBA at a distance of 50 feet.
The noise levels decrease at a rate of approximately 6 dBA
per doubling of the distance. Therefore, at 100 feet the
noise levels will be about 6 dBA less. Intervening struc~
totes or topography will act as a noise barrier and reduce
noise levels further.
322
shed and detailed floodplain mapping of the Temecula Creek
adjacent to the project site.
All improvements will be constructed in accordance with the
standards of the Riverside County Flood Control District.
Erosion control devices will be utilized in hillside devel-
opment areas to mitigate the effect of increased runoff at
points of discharge. Possible devices may include tempo-
rary berms, culverts, sandbagging or desilting basins. The
configuration of the major storm drain outlet at Margarita
Road will be a concrete energy dissipation/flow spreading
device in order to mitigate higher pipe exit velocities and
provide a non-erosive velocity into the existing stream.
5. Noise
The issue of "Noise" was addressed in the "Draft Environ-
mental Impact Report for Rancho Villages General Plan
Amendment", sponsored by Kacor Realty and submitted to the
County of Riverside in August, 1980. A Noise Assessment
was performed as part of that General Plan Amendment EIR by
the firm of Hilliard and Bricken. As The Meadows at
Rancho California Specific Plan is being proposed in
accordance with that GPA, that Noise Assessment is hereby
incorporated by refer-once into this Draft EIR
document. However, specific policies and development
criteria related to noise are included in the following
discussion.
a. Existing Conditions/General Plan Policies
As the project site is presently undeveloped, it generates
little noise. Primary existing noise sources in the pro-
ject area include vehicular noise along State Route 79,
Margarita Road, De Portola Road, and Pauba Road.
General Plan Policies
The project site is not shown as noise impacted, per the
County of Riverside Airport Noise Impact Area Map. The
Environmental Hazards and Resources Element of the Compre-
hensive General Plan includes Land Use Standards addressing
Noise. Those which are relative to the proposal are listed
below:
1)
The following uses shall be considered noise sensitive
and shall be discouraged in areas excess of 65 CNEL
(dBA): Single and multiple family residential, group
homes, hospitals, schools and other learning institu-
tions, and parks and Open space lands where quiet is a
basis for use.
2)
Proposed noise sensitive projects within noise i~pacted
areas shall be required to have acoustical studies
321
increased-runoff. In order to mitigate the increase in
runoff at Margarita Road outlet, the larger east/west storm
drain could be re~ligned to discharge directly into
Temecula Creek.
Three storm drain systems are proposed along the southern
project boundary to outlet directly into Temecula Creek.
The precise discharge locations would have to be determined
by off-site owners. These three storm drains generally run
in a north to south direction, generally following the
existing drainage pattern. The proposed storm drain system
in Butterfield Stage Road will intercept two proposed storm
drains by the adjacent development to the east. All of the
storm drain outlets will be higher pipe outlet velocities.
Relationship to General Plan Policies
The Meadows at Rancho california Specific Plan responds to
The Land Use Standards for Flooding, as follows:
1)
Flood Hazard Mitigation - In accordance with these
standards, a drainage study has been prepared,
resulting in the Figure 57, Drainage Plan. This
study is included as Section D, Technical Appendices.
Due to the site's location within a "Dam Inundation
Area" of the Vail Dam, the development proposal will
be reviewed for siting constraints by the County
Flood Control District and the County Planning
Department.
Floodplains - The site does not lie within the identi-
fied floodplain area, though additional study of the
Temecula floodplain is recommended. (See "Mitiga-
tions".)
Drainage Improvement Fees - If required, the developer
will contribute $932 per acre for the approximately
142 acres of the site which lie within the Temecula
Valley Drainage Area. A portion of the project site
may also be subject to fees associated with the
Murrieta Creek Area Drainage Plan.
In accordance with the Rancho Villages Development Crite-
ria, development will not result in increased flood hazards
to adjacent or downstream properties. As discussed above,
drainage fees will be paid for those portions of the site
located within the Temecula Valley or Murrieta Creek Area
Drainage Plans.
c. MitiGations
A more in-depth assessment of the Temecula floodplain
should be conducted during the final design and preparation
of the tentative tract maps. The study will require a
regional hydrologic analysis of the Temecula Creek water-
