BACKGROUND
Tentative Parcel Map No. 27545 was submitted to the Planning Department on May 14, 1992.
A Development Review Committee (DRC) meeting was held on May 28, 1992. No significant
issues were identified relative to Tentative Parcel Map No. 27545 at the DRC meeting. The
proposed Tentative Parcel Map is located on the site of Conditional Use Permit No. 2, Revised
No. 1 which was approved on June 17, 1991. Conditional Use Permit No. 2, Revised No. 1
is a proposal to construct an automotive center which consists of 21,458 square feet of service
area and 8,663 square feet of retail area. An extension of time for Conditional Use Permit No.
2, Revised No. 1 was approved 5-0 by the Planning Commission at the April 6, 1992 meeting.
This approval extends the life of Conditional Use Permit No. 2, Revised No. 1 to October 9,
1992.
PROJECT DESCRH'TION
Tentative Parcel Map No. 27545 is a proposal to subdivide 3.0 gross acres into three parcels.
Parcel 1 is .5 gross acres, Parcel 2, is 1.8 gross acres and Parcel 3 is .7 gross acres. The
proposed Tentative Parcel Map is located in the Scenic Highway Commercial (C-P-S) zone.
Ordinance No. 460 classifies Tentative Parcel Map No. 27545 as a Schedule "E" Parcel Map.
A Schedule "E" Parcel Map is any division of land into two (2) or more parcels in a commercial
or industrial zone, regardless of parcel size.
ANALYSIS
Tentative Parcel Map No. 27545 has been configured such that each individual parcel meets the
parking requirements per Section 18.12 of Ordinance No. 348. Conditional Use Permit No. 2,
Revised-No. 1 which has been appreved on the site is a proposal to construct three (3) sets of
buildings. Each set of buildings will occupy one of the paxeels. Parcel 1 includes 58 parking
spaces, Paxeel 2 has 81 spaces and Parcel 3 provides 33 spaces. All three parcels meet the
landscape/shading requirements per Ordinance No. 348. A reciprocal access agreement (for
parking) through the recordation of CC&R's has been assured through Condition of Approval
No. 32.
EXISTING ZONING, SWAP AND FUTURE GF_ANERAL PLAN CONSLSTENCY
The project, as conditional, conforms with the existing zoning (C-P-S) affecting the subject
property. The proposed Tentative Parcel Map meets the requirements of Section 10.10 of
Ordinance No. 460, and is compatible with the Southwest Area Community Plan (SWAP) land
use recommendation of Commercial. As such, it is likely that Tentative Parcel Map No. 27545
will be consistent with the City' s future General Plan, upon the plan' s final adoption.
ENVIRONMF_aNTAL DETER/VIINATION
Tentative Parcel Map No. 27545 is a Class 15 Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15315
of the CEQA Guidelines. A Class 15 Categorical Exemption consists of the division of property
in urbanized areas zoned for commemial use into four or fewer parcels. Additionally, the
division must meet the following criteria: (1) the division must be in conformance with the
General Plan and zoning, (2) no variances or exceptions are required, (3) all services and access
to the proposed parcels to local standards are available, (4) the parcel has not been involved in
a division of a larger parcel within the previous 2 years, and (5) the pamel does not have an
average slope greater than 20 percent.
SUNIMARY/CONCLUSIONS
Tentative Parcel Map No. 27545 is a proposal to subdivide 3.0 gross acres into three (3) parcels.
Conditional Use Penit No. 2, Revised No. 1 and a subsequent Extension of Time have been
previously approved for the site. The project, as conditioned, conforms with Ordinance No.
348, Ordinance No. 460, and the SWAP. Tentative Parcel Map No. 27545 is a Class 15
Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15315 of the CEQA Guidelines. Through Staff's
analysis, it has been determined that parking and landscaping requirements are met for each
parcel that has been created. A reciprocal access agreement through the recordation of CC&R's
will be required as a Condition of Approval for parking.
FINDINGS
The proposed land division is consistent with the Southwest Area Community Plan
(SWAP), Ordinance No. 460 and Ordinance No. 348. The SWAP designation is
Commemlal. The parcels meet the requirements of Section 10.10 of Ordinance No. 460
for Schedule "E" Parcel Map Divisions. There is no minimum lot size criteria under
Ordinance No. 348.
The lot design is logical and meets the approval of the City' s Planning and Public Works
Departments. ~ach parcel provides for appropriate building location, access and parking.
The project will not have a significant adverse effect on the environment. The proposed
project is a Class 15 Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15315 of the CEQA
Guidelines.
There is a reasonable probability that the project will be consistent with the City's
General Plan, once adopted, based on analysis contained in the Staff Report. The
surrounding area curren~y supports automobile oriented uses, and is identified by the
SWAP as Commemial.
S~TAFFRFI"~/545TPM-I~c 3
There is not a likely probability of substantial detriment to or interference with the future
General Plan, ff the proposed use is ultimately inconsistent with the Plan. If the
proposed use is inconsistent, it will not be detrimental because of the commercial,
automobile oriented nature of surrounding uses.
The project, as proposed, provides for future passive or natural solar heating or cooling
opportunities. All three parcels include sufficient southern exposure.
Said findings are supported by minutes, maps, and exhibits associated with these
applications and herein incorporated by reference. This Staff Report contains mapping
and Conditions of Approval which support the Staff recommendation.

Re: CUP # 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 ~he status of this
request will be very much appreciated. Please let us know when
this project will be completed.

Some of the sandy sell lenses present in the vicinity of 20
feet at Boring B-3 have · potential Zor liquefaction.
Subsidence due to liquefaction would be localized to nil and
no manifestation of liquefaction is likely to occur at or near
the ground surface.
Your report racemended thatz
1. Structural Setbacks for faults are not warranted on this site.
The potential for surface flooding should be further evaluated
by ~he design engineer.
Caol~gic inspections should be performed during site grading
to verify geologic conditions relative to faulting encountered
both within or outside of the Alquist-Priolo Special Studies
In order to mitigate liquefactlOn~ential and/or seiSmi~slly
induced dynaalo settl~ent, Sll existing fill and topsoil over
the entire site within areas of settlement sensitive
improveseats shall be removed. The average depth of removal
is estimated at 3 tc 4 feet, bowlvet localized deeper removals
may be ne~essa:7.
The e~ploratcz~ ~rench be~k[ill should be ~leaned cut,

APPLICANT:
City of Temecula
PROPOSAL:
An Ordinance Establishing Standards for Temporary Signs.
LOCATION: Citywide
BACKGROUND
Beginning in early August, 1991, City Staff conducted enforcement activities against illegal
temporary signs in commercial areas of the City. The enforcement campaign resulted in letters
of viohtion being sent to a large number of business owners who had erected banners, sandwich
boards, and other illegal temporary signs. Because of the large number of complaints about the
City's decision to enforce the Sign Ordinance, the City established a committee of business
people and City Staff to develop appropriate standards for temporary signs. The Temporary
Sign Committee's initial standards for temporary signs was presented to the Planning
Commission on April 20, 1992. The April 20th Staff Report is contained in Attachment 1.
At the April 20th meeting, the Planning Commission received public testimony on the proposed
Ordinance Regulating Temporary Signs. The issues raised during public testimony are as
follows:
That the proposed ordinance should balance the needs of community as a whole
with the needs of the small business community during these hard economic
times;
S~STAFFRPTX~IGN.2FC ]
· The City should continue it's moratorium on enforcement of the current sign
ordinance;
· That them is a need to clean-up temporary signs in the City;
· The importance of maintaining ateactive and orderly commercial areas;
· That there is a need for special temporary sign standards in Old Town; and,
· That there is a need to allow temporary signs in special hardship situations.
Based upon this public testimony, the Planning Commission requested that City Staff meet with
the other members of the Temporary Sign Committee and discuss the following items:
I. The hardship provision to allow temporary signs during public project construction;
2. The feasibility of and possible standards for detached temporary signs; and,
3. Any special standards for temporary signs in Old Town.
DISCUSSION
The Temporary Sign Committee met on June 3, 1992, and discussed these three topics. The
first item discussed by the Committee related to hardship situation signs. The Committee agreed
that these signs are needed when major public construction disrupts normal public access to a
shopping center or single business. The proposed ordinance allows the Director of Planning the
discretion to determine the appropriate size, number and location of the permitted signs. The
Committee also agreed that hardship situation signs are not a cure for poor shopping center
access or parking area design. Staff concurs with the Committee's consensus and has included
this provision in the proposed ordinance.
The second item discussed by the Temporary Sign Committee was the feasibility, desirability,
and possible standards for detached temporary signs. As a result of this discussion, the
Committee arrived at a consensus that detached temporary signs:
Are often more effective than attached temporary signs on commercial sweets
with higher speed limits;
Need to be aesthetically pleasing; and,
Should not to impair or block the visibility of other businesses and their signs, or
obstruct the view of motorists.
However, after discussing the matter at some length, the Committee was unable to reach an
agreement on the standards for detached temporary signs. The discussion of the standards for
detached temporary signs centered on the following issues:
· The need for flee-standing manufactured frames that do not require additional
bracing or guy wires;
The need for a minimum separation distance between detached temporary signs;
and,
The smaller size requirements for detached temporary signs because they may be
located closer to the road.
Staff has not included detached temporary signs in the proposed ordinance because of the lack
of clear Committee agreement on the what the standards should be, the complexity of the
permitting and enforcement processes, and the potential liability problems that could occur with
detached temporary signs. Therefore, City Staff recommends that standards for detached
temporary signs not be included in the proposed ordinance.
The third item discussed by the Temporary Sign Committee was the need for special temporary
sign standards in the area of historic Old Town Temecula. After a great deal of discussion, the
Committee agreed that they weren't really qualified to discuss the standards for Old Town; and
that the Old Town Merchants Association and the Old Town Local Architectural Review Board
should be consulted. With this recommendation from the Temporary Sign Committee, City Staff
met with a working group composed of the Old Town Merchants Association and the Old Town
Local Review Board on June 12, 1992. Present at the meeting were most of the Board of
Directors for the Old Town Merchants Association, several merchants from the old town area,
and a member of the Old Town Local Review Board. As a result of this meeting, the working
group arrived at a consensus that temporary signs in Old Town should:
· Be pedestrian oriented rather than automobile oriented; and,
Use non-glossy fabric-like materials rather than fluorescent or iridescent
materials.
The working group felt that the following requirements should be included in the temporay sign
standards for historic Old Town Temecula:
· Use non-glossy fabric-like materials;
· Use lettering styles appropriate to the period between 1890 to 1920;
· Use appropriate muted colors and earth tones; and,
· Be no larger than 12 square feet.
Staff concurs with the working group's agreement on temporary signs in Old Town. Their
consensus is included the proposed ordinance. Therefore, Staff recommends that the Planning
Commission include these provisions in the proposed Ordinance Regulating Temporary Signs.
To date, the City Planning department has received three letters commenting on the issue of
temporary signs and the proposed Ordinance. The first letter is from the Temecula Valley
Chamber of Commerce stating that it supports the proposed ordinance. The second letter was
sent to City Manager David Dixon by Mr. Donald M. Clark, an area resident and operator of
three Wendy's restaurants in Los Angeles. He stated that he did not believe that temporary
signs are the solution to the business problems in Temecula. The third letter is from James
Further, owner of the Subway Sandwich Shop and member of the Temporary Sign Committee,
· stating his support of the proposed ordinance. Copies of these letters are contained in
Attachment 2.
Throughout the process of developing regulations for temporary signs, a number of other sign
issues have been repeatedly raised. The representatives of local real estate finns have discussed
their need to advertise that free maps and communitywide information is available, and several
restaurant owners have mentioned their need to advertise their daily specials and menus. These
types of permanent supplemental signs will be included in the new City Sign Ordinance that will
be prepared after adoption of the City' s new General Plan and Development Code.
CONCLUSION
The proposed Ordinance Regulating Temporary Signs represents the consensus of the members
of the Temporary Sign Committee, the Old Town Merchants Associate and the Old Town Local
Review Board who attended the various meetings. The revised Ordinance represents a consensus
of these groups. As a result, not all of the individuals involved agree with every provision, but
taken as a whole, the members of the Committee, were generally satisfied with the provisions
and requirements contained in the draft Ordinance. The proposed Ordinance represents a
collaboration between representatives of the public and private sectors has resulted in regulations
that are both reasonable and implementable.
The Temporary Sign Committee was unable to reach a consensus on the standards for detached
temporary signs. As a result, Staff continues to recommend that detached temporary signs not
be permitted with these regulations. The proposed amendment to the Sign Ordinance will
provide uniform standards to regulate temporary signs within the City. These uniform standards
will:
1. Provide for effective business identification;
2. Prevent visual blight and clutter and promote tourism;
3. Enhance the image of Temecula as a high quality community; and,
4. Address the special needs of historic Old Town Temecuia.
The proposed Ordinance Regulating Temporary Signs would add Sections 19.9 and 19.10, to
Article XIX of Ordinance 348, and provide standards that would:
· Allow for some types of appropriate temporary signs;
· Provide for a simplified and streamlined permit process; and,
· Authorize a minimal fee for Temporary Signs Permits.
The Ordinance as proposed, does not apply to For Sale, Lease or For Rent Signs which
reguhted by the provisions of Section 19.5, Temporary Political Signs, which are regulated by
the provisions of Section 19.7, and menu boards and maps available signs which are regulated
by the provisions of Section 19.4. City Staff anticipates that these various types of permanent
supplemental signs will be addressed in the new City Sign Ordinance that will be prepared after
adoption of the City' s new General Plan and Development Code.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
This Ordinance will allow for the use of temporary signs for limited periods in existing
commercial and service districts. As a result, the proposed Ordinance Regulating Temporary
Signs does not have the potential to cause significant impacts on the environment. Therefore,
Staff has determined that this project is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061 (b) (3).
FINDINGS
The proposed Ordinance Regulating Temporary Signs will provide for effective
identification.
The proposed Ordinance Regulating Temporary Signs will enhance the image of
Temecula as a high quality community.
The proposed Ordinance Regulating Temporary Signs will not result in visual blight and
clutter.
There is reasonable probability that the proposed Ordinance Regulating Temporary Signs
will be consistent with the Old Town Specific Plan.
There is no reasonable probability of substantial detriment to, or interference with the
future Old Town Specific Plan if the proposed Ordinance Regulating Temporary Signs
is ultimately inconsistent with the policies contained in said Plan.
There is reasonable probability that the proposed Ordinance Regulating Temporary Signs
will be consistent with the City'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 no reasonable probability of substantial detriment to, or interference with the
future General Plan if the proposed Ordinance Regulating Temporary Signs is ultimately
inconsistent with the goals and policies contained in said Plan. It is also likely that the
City will consider these policies during the preparation of the City General Plan.
FUTURE GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
Staff finds it probable that the proposed Ordinance Regulating Temporary Signs will be
consistent with the General Plan when it is adopted sinco the Community Design Element will
address community design and aesthetic issues, including architecture, landscaping and signage.

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 viohtion 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.
$\STAFFRPT~TEMi~IGN.PC 1
DISCUSSION
The Temporary Sign Committee met three times, on December 5, 1991, January 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 instramental 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 temporaxy signs obstruct the visibility of other business and signs.
5. That temporary signage is not an intended to compensate for a cheap, low visib'dity
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 spec'ml 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 pennit
with an easy-to-read expiration date.
10. That the City could provide signs for new businesses, such as "GRAND OPENING" or
"THB CITY OF TKMBCULA W~.XCOIVI~ "
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.
· 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 241h Committee
meeting. The following Table contains a summary of the Committee consensus from December
5th meeting.

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 temporary 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 axe:
1. A-Frames and other portable signs;
2. Off-site signs; and,
3. Vehicle mounted signs.
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 January 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 size 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 prepaxed 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 Staff's 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
mos~y 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 (below 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.
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 attended 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 Commitme, except as noted above, were satisfied with the provisions and
requirements contained in the draft Ordinance.
The process of developing has been time consum'mg 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 W work together to develop
these standards. This collaboration between ~r, presenta~ves 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.
ENVIRONM~-NTAL 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 or~ 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.
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 City' s future General Plan, winch wffi 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, ff the proposed policies are ultimately inconsistent with the plan,
due to the fact that policies wffi 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 arcinteeture, landscaping and signage.

TEMECULA, CA. 9Z590
APRIL 17, 1992
I read with interest the plight of Greg Treadwell owner of Granny's
Bakery and really the plight of all small business in the Valley, with
regard to Banners, signs and business in general.
Earlier this year I received a $110. ticket for parking my car on the
street in front of my office with (2) 8xl 0 inch "for sale" signs in the
window. The car was parked legally, for about 4 hours on a Saturday on
Enterprise Circle North. I had obviously violated some clearly defined
statute of the City of Temecula. I thought about going to court (in Lake
Elsinore of all places) to protest the ticket, after all I had not just left
the car somewhere, I was in my office. I decided the effort would
probably be a waste of time and made my contribution to the City's
coffers.
Every day I drive by Mr. Treadwell's yellow Panel Truck with the
smashed up front end and the 4x6 foot hand lettered sign, a vehicle which
has obviously not moved in months. Although I presume it is parked
legally, it is just a matter of time before someone runs into the sign and
the truck as this part of Jefferson is very congested with traffic entering
and exiting the various retail centers. I presume that if the sign on my
car had said "Donut Sale" instead of "For Sale", I would not have received
a ticlSet.
I operate three Wendy's restaurants in the City of Los Angeles so I
feel qualified to comment on the banner issue. I am often asked "when I
am going to open a Wendy's in the Valley?" My answer is not anytime
soon. Why? Mr. Treadwell's problem is not a visibility problem, there are
just too many places to eat in Temecula and for that matter too many
video stores, dry cleaners, furniture stores, smog shops, you name it.
What Mr. Treadwell and all current small business owners in the Valley
truly need is a moratorium on new business licenses, unless a clearly
defined need for the new business can be demonstrated.

I know business licenses are a revenue generator, but every business
that fails, does not renew their license. I would bet the revenue curve
from licenses is now flat or declining.
I am not a no growth advocate, sensible growth is the key to the
prosperity of the Valley and the Small Business operators who have risked
their dollars to be here. They deserve a chance to survive. It is no secret
that retail commercial space in the Valley is overbuilt. Every new
redundant restaurant, video store, and photo shop that opens is not only
likely to fail, but threatens the viabiiity of every existing restaurant,
· video store, and photo shop. You can believe in the economic theory of
survival of the fittest, or at least the deepest pocket, but as a practical
matter, all of our businesses are suffering. Healthy competition benefits
everyone, over saturation hurts everyone. I hope Mr. Treadwell makes it,
but frankly not every small business will. The best way to help the
entrepreneurs of the Valley is to make new businesses pass the test that
their service is needed. Simple criteda based on population in a 1 mile
radius can be devised and as growth of population resumes, business
growth can as well.
In many cases we will be doing the inexperienced new entrepreneur a
favor. How many business men and women have risked their life savings
and mortgaged their homes and futures to open a business for which there
was no sustainable level of demand for their product or service? How
many viable businesses in 1988, are unviable today in 1992, because
competition' has eliminated their profit margin? We must have a viable
business base to grow the Valley's economy. We must create the
environment to allow businesses to mature and prosper. Every liquidation
sale and deeply discounted meal is only a short term benefit for the
Consumer. Every small business owner that goes under sets off a chain
reaction of bad loans, unpaid bills and taxes, and too often a home
foreclosure which undermines the value of adjoining homes as the lender
liquidates the property.
Lastly, lets get the banners off the streets, the balloons off the
roofs and the blimps out of the air and restore the dignity of our beautiful
Valley. Reasonable guidelines for temporary signs can be adopted to
serve the requirements of all businesses. Whatever provisions the council
decides to enact, must be evenly enforced and no one will be unfairly
disadvantaged. Banners beget more banners, balloons more balloons.

Dear Mr. Meyer:
As a member of the Temporary Sign Ordinance
Committee I regret that I will be unable to attend the July
6, 1992 Planning Conmission meeting.
I em the owner of the Subway Sandwich shops at
the Target Center, and the Adobe Plaza.With this letter I
wish to go on record as being in total support of the Temporary
Sign Ordinance submitted at this meeting.
If Temecula is to become the city that we are all
proud of,we must enact a fair and effective temporary sign
ordinance.This will prevent the types of signs presently on
Jefferson Ave which reflect very poorly on all of us as a
city.
The City Government must recognize that the
underlying cause of the restaurant problem within Temecula
is not with more signage, but the fact that there is a fixed
amount of spendable income allocated to eating out.There are
presently more food establishments within Temecula than the
population can support. Yet, they keep coming. Yet, the city
keeps encouraging this type of growth.
It is my contention that the city has engaged in
unfair business practices by granting waivers of the existing
ordinance to my competition , as well as anyone else that
wants to clutter the city with questionable signage. At
previous meetings we have all heard of business being increased
by 50% to 75% with the addition of a simple A Frame. I could
no longer contain my greed for a 50/75% increase so I
purchased an A Frame against my better judgment.
As I suspected we realized less than a 5% increase.
One can only guess where the increase came from, but it is
a safe bet. that it came from one of my competitors that
probably do not have illegal signage.
In all my business classes that deal with making a
successful business I have heard of such things as:
Location
Fill a Need
Provide Quality
Service
Cleanliness
Promotion
More Location
But, I have never seen an A Frame or Banner included as an
essential need to achieve success, yet tonight I'm sure that
you will hear that the Temecula business community will not
survive unless you reject the Temporary Sign Ordinance
prepared by Staff in conjunction with a citizens committee.
As a business owner in Temecula, I encourage the Planning
Commission to accept the Ordinance as proposed.
Sincerely:
