PCMINUTESS/18/92 ~2- 5/27192
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES MAY 18, 1992
Commissioner Ford asked if the consultant was aware of proposed
development plans for the hillside.
Shawn Nelson stated that those plans were made available to RJM based on
the SWAP designation. Therefore, the proposed grade of the recreation center
was developed to mitigate drainage impacts associated with severe flooding.
Mr. Nelson added that staff is currently awaiting an acoustical engineering
study as it relates to the amphitheater to analyze its impact on surrounding
residents.

PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
MAY 18, 1992
Jack Wong, co-owner, stated that at the advice of CaI-Trans representatives,
they submitted the request for a ten foot high wall to accomplish noise
reduction.
Commissioner Ford stated that he felt it would be more appropriate to design
a six foot high wall and if the noise study required a higher wall, condition the
project to build to the recommended height.
Commissioner Blair asked the applicant if he would be willing to perform a
sound study. Mr. Wong indicated that it would be very costly for him to have
the study performed.
Chairman Hoagland stated that the applicant has consulted with CaI-Trans and
received their recommendation and has presented an acceptable landscape plan
and therefore he would approve the applicant's request,
Commissioner Fahey expressed her concurrence with Chairman Hoagland.
Commissioner Ford and Commissioner Blair indicated that they would not be
willing to approve the request without a sound study.
Chairman Hoagland suggested that the Planning Director contact Commissioner
Chiniaeff on an informal basis and make a decision based on the majority
opinion.
Commissioner Ford reiterated that he felt the approval of the height would be
a precedent setting decision.

MAY 18, 1992
they allow the applicant to use the gravel parking lot until a Specific Plan for
Old Town has been adopted and if the Old Town Specific Plan does not allow
gravel parking lots, then a one year period be granted for compliance.
Commissioner Ford questioned Mr, Terich's argument for a gravel parking lot.
Mr. Terich referred to ground water absorption.
Chairman Hoagland questioned how oil and grease drippings from the cars
would be kept from entering the water run-off.
Mr. Terich stated that the parking lot would consist of three to four inches of
gravel which could absorb the pollutants and then be removed and replaced.
Chairman Hoagland stated that he would be opposed to the applicant's request
for a permanent gravel parking lot,
It was moved by Commissioner Fahey, seconded by Commissioner Blair to

7. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 18
7.1
Proposal is a request to permit the sale of beer and wine at a Mobil Oil gas
station, Rancho California Town Center, 29500 Rancho California Road,
Temecula.
Saied Naaseh presented the staff report.
Chairman Hoagland opened the public hearing at 7:45 P.M.
Ken Huper, 18634 Lankenshire Way, Los Angeles, representing Mobil Oil,
advised the Commission that the gas station operates 24 hours per day;
however, beer and wine sales would be limited to restricted hours by the ARC.
Sidney Vernon, 30268 Mercy Court, Temecula, expressed his concerns with
drinking and driving. Mr. Vernon added that he felt selling beer and wine at a
gas station would encourage drinking and driving. Mr. Vernon also noted the
location of the church across the street from the gas station.
Ken Huper stated that Mobil Oil did not approve of drinking and driving,
however the application is in conformance with the ordinance and there are
other establishments within the city which currently sell beer and wine in
addition to gasoline.
The Commission as a whole expressed disapproval of the sale of alcohol at a
gas station.
John Cavanaugh reminded the Commission that the proposal is a C.U.P. and
therefore the Commission would have to set forth specific findings, such as
those that relate to health, safety and welfare.
Commissioner Blair questioned the church location on Rancho California Road
in regards to the request.
Saied Naaseh advised that the ARC would not deny the request based on the
location of the church; however, thay would place stricter restrictions on the
establishment.
Gary Thornhill advised the Commission that had the request been located in a
residential zone or near a freeway, staff would have recommended denial:
however, because this is a built-out shopping center, staff did not feel that this
PCMINUTESSI18/92 -6- 5127192
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
MAY 18, 1992
request posed any conflicts. Mr. Thornhill added that the Commission may find
that the location of the church, schools, freeway and the access into and out
of this shopping center present a health, safety and welfare concern.
Chairman Hoagland stated that although he does not agree with the sale of
alcoholic beverages at a gas station, this applicant has complied with all the
existing ordinances and therefore it would be unfair to deny his request based
upon personal opinion.
John Cavanaugh added that since the applicant has complied with the
ordinance, findings for denial based on health, safety and welfare would need
to be made.
It was moved by Commissioner Ford, seconded by Commission Fahey to close
the public hearing at 8:05 P.M. and Adopt Resolution No. 92-(next} denying
Conditional Use Permit No. 18 and direct staff to prepare findings to
substantiate the denial as follows: health and safety concerns as they relate to
the location, the proximity to the schools in the City of Temecula, the church,
the freeway, and the specific intersection as people are driving out into a maior
traffic area at that particular shopping center.

BACKGROUND
Conditional Use Permit No. 17 was submitted to the Planning Department on April 7, 1992.
A Development Review Committee (DRC) meeting was held on April 30, 1992. Them were
no significant issues relative to Conditional Use Permit raised at the DRC meeting and therefore
the project was scheduled for a planning Commission hearing.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Conditional Use Permit No. 17 is a proposal to locate a 1,200 square foot veterina~ clinic into
an existing commercial/retail center (Temecula Plaza). The existing center located at 41915
Motor Car Parkway was appreved by the County of Riverside Board of Supervisors on May 31,
1988 as Plot Plan No. 10343, Exhibit A, Amended No. 1. This approval included the building
in which the veterinary clinic is proposed to be. One hundred and six (106) parking spaces were
required under Ordinance No. 348 for Plot Plan No. 10343, Exhibit A, Amended No. 1. The
proposed veterinary clinic will require four (4) spaces per Ordinance No. 348.
ANALYSIS
Noise
Staff was concerned with the potential for noise which could emanate from the proposed use.
The applicant has stated that, in his present location, no complaints have been received in five
years of occupancy (reference Attachment No. 4). A stereo and alarm shop shales a common
wall. Parking areas are to the south and west and Motor Car Parkway is to the east. The
proposed veterinary clinic will occupy a suite which is at the end of the center. Due to the
location of the use within the existing building, no potevtial impacts fwm noise are expected.
Health Issues
Staff was concerned about the disposal of medical waste. Staff received comments from the
County of Riverside Department of Health which requires the applicant to receive a clearance
letter from the Hazardous Services Materials Management Branch. The project will have to be
cleared for Hazardous Waste Generator Service, Hazardous Waste Disclosure and Waste
Reduction Management prior to occupancy. These clearances will satisfy Staff's concerns
pertaining to medical waste.
S\STAFFRFI'xl7CUP.PC 2
EXISTING ZONING, FUTURE GENERAL PLAN AND SWAP CONSISTENCY
Zoning on the site is General Commercial (C-l/C-P). Veterinary clinics are permitted uses in
the C-1/C-P zone provided a Conditional Use Permit has been granted pursuant to Ordinance
No. 348. The proposed use is consistent with the SWAP Commercial designation. As such,
it is likely the Conditional Use Permit No. 17 will be consistent with the City' s future General
Plan, upon the Plan's final adoption.
E,NVIRO~AL DETERMINATION
The proposed project is a Class I Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15301(e)(1) of the
CEQA guidelines. Minor alterations of existing private structures involving negligible or no
expansion of use beyond that previously existing to include interior alterations involving such
things as interior partitions, plumbing, and electrical conveyances are Class I Categorical
Exemptions.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS
Conditional Use Permit No. 17 is a proposal to locate a 1,200 square foot veterinary clinic in
an existing building. No significant impacts from this project are foreseen by Staff. The project
as conditioned is consistent with existing zoning, the SWAP, and is therefore likely to be
consistent with the City's future General Plan.
FINDINGS
There is a reasonable probability that Conditional Use Permit No. 17 will be consistent
with the City' s future General Plan, which will be completed in a reasonable time and
in accordance with State law due to the fact that the proposed veterinary clinic is
consistent with the existing zoning of General Commercial and the SWAP land use
designation of Commercial.
There is not a likely probability of substantial detriment to or interference with the future
General Plan, if the proposed use is ultimately inconsistent with the plan due to the fact
that the proposed veterinary clinic is consistent with the existing General Commercial
zoning, the SWAP land use designation of Commercial, and the existing development of
the surrounding area.
The proposed use or action complies with State planning and zoning laws due to the fact
that the proposed use complies with Ordinance No. 348 and the action complies with
State Planning Laws.
The site is suitable to accommodate the proposed land use in terms of the size, access,
and intensity of use due to the fact that the proposed development complies with the
standards of Ordinance No. 348.
The project as designed and conditioned will not adversely affect the public health or
welfare due to the fact that the Conditions of Approval include measures which will
ensure that public health and welfare will be maintained.
The project is compatible with surrounding land uses. The harmony in intensity creates
a compatible physical relationship with adjoining properties due to the fact that the
proposed developmere is consistent with current surrounding development and Ordinance
No. 348.
The proposal will not have an adverse effect on surrounding property, because it does
not rapresent a significant change to the present or planned land use of the area due to
the fact that the surrounding properties are zoned C-1/C-P (General Commercial) which
is consistent with the project zoning and proposed use.
The project has acceptable access to a dedicated right-of-way which is open to, and
useable by, vehicular traffic due to the fact that the interior circuhtion is suitable and
connects with Ynez Road and Motor Car Parkway.
The project as designed and conditioned will not adversely affect the built or natural
environment. The project is a Class 1 Categorical Exemption pursuant to the CEQA
Guidelines.
10.
The design of the project and the type of improvements are such that they are not in
conflict with easements for access through or use of the property within the proposed
project as represented on the site plan.

To Whom It May Concern:
I am a veterinarian currently operating a small animal cliniz in
Temecula. I am presently leca~ed in the grater gro~hezs shopping
center at 27443 Jefferson Avenue. I opened my practice in Temecula
in 1987 at which time I obtained a Conditionai Use Permit ~
considerable expense and time. I wish to move my bus~ness to 41915
Motor Car Parkway, Suite I, rot which I understand another C.U.P.
is required.
M~, business consists primarily of out-patien~ services, i.e.
vaccinations, administering meditations and surgery. I do not
board and I do not groom animals. On the infrequent occasion that
an animal is kept overnight it is because that animal is extremely
ill and is under 24 hour surveillance.
In the five years I have run my business at my present location,
no complaints of any kind have been lodged against me. I am simply
interested in relocating to a location on the east side of
Interstate 15, to better serve my clients. I feel that I should
not be subject to excessive fees or t~e delays.
Sincerely,
Robert Thompson,
