BACKGROUND
The application submittal was made on March 24, 1998. A Development Review Committee
(DRC) meeting was held on April 9, 1998, with staff providing written comments on April 20,
1998. The project was deemed complete on May 6, 1998.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project consists of the design, construction and operation of an 18,393 square foot
building and associated improvements, such as hardscape, parking, landscaping and drive
aisles. Landscape improvements include: parking lot, slopes, planter areas, and streetscape.
The applicant proposes to expand and relocate his business, Binaca Products, Inc., from its
existing location on Commerce Center Drive. Binaca Products will initially be housed in the
front suite, with four other suites within the building available as rentals. Mr. Gupta anticipates
continued expansion of his business in the future into the rental suites.
ANALYSIS
Site Desion
The project is sited on a square parcel with offices fronting Enterprise Circle North and the east
parking area. Service areas, including parallel loading spaces, are confined to the west side of
R:~TAFFRPT~I26PAgg.PC 5r/7198 d 2
the building. An employee outdoor lunch area has been located at the southeast corner of the
project site, adjacent to a similar amenity that serves the neighboring bank. The site design is
compatible with existing development in the area.
Access. Traffic and Circulation
The project takes access from two ddveways onto Enterprise Circle North. The circular design
of the drive aisle allows delivery trucks to access the west side of the building, while customers
and employees utilize parking on the east side. Emergency vehicles have direct access to all
portions of the site.
Architecture
The applicant proposes to highlight office entries along the front and east elevation of the
building with the use of glass, sandblasted finish panels and painted accents. Slate tiles and
reveals are also used and will be carried to the sides and rear of the building. Narrow, vertical
windows are proposed on the front elevation beyond the entry to provide interest that breaks
up the building wall. Carefully placed trees and shrubs are located on three sides to
complement the building. The remaining rear wall faces the back of the commercial building
which fronts Winchester Road. The adjacent commercial building has no windows facing the
subject project.
The applicant proposes to control signage on the building by identifying permissible areas above
the office entries, at a uniform height and scale. All building signs shall use channel lettering.
Landscaoing
The project provides a minimum 5.5 foot perimeter landscaping planter on all four sides of the
parcel. The frontage along Enterprise Circle North will be landscaped to a total width of 25.5
feet. This landscaping wraps around the northwest corner of the building in order to screen the
view of loading doors from the street with strategically placed trees.
Corres0ondence Received
None.
EXISTING ZONING AND GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION
The General Plan Land Use designation for the site is BP Business Park, as is the existing
zoning. The proposed office, manufacturing and warehousing uses are permitted with the
approval of a development plan pursuant to Chapter 17.05 of the Development Code. The
project as proposed is consistent with the Development Code and the General Plan.
R:~STAF~I2~pA98.1*C 5/2'//98 cd 3
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
An Initial Study has been prepared for this project. The Initial Study determined that although
the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, these effects are not
considered to be significant due to mitigation measures contained in the project design and in
the Conditions of Approval for the project. Any potentially significant impacts will be
mitigated.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS
The project is consistent with the City's General Plan, compatible with surrounding
development and uses, and conforms to the requirements of the City's Development Code.
FINDINGS
The proposed uses are in conformance with the General Ran for Temecula and with all
applicable requirements of State law and other Ordinances of the City. The project is
consistent with all City Ordinances including: the City's Development Code, Ordinance
No. 655 (Mr. Palomar Lighting Ordinance), and the City's Water Efficient Landscaping
provisions.
The overall development of the land is designed for the protection of the public health,
safety and welfare. The project as proposed complies with all City Ordinances and
meets the standards adopted by the City of Temecula designed for the protection of the
public health, safety and welfare.
An Initial Study was prepared for the project and it has determined that although the
proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, these effects are
not considered to be significant due to mitigation measures contained in the project
design and in the Conditions of Approval added to the project.
The project will not result in an impact to endangered, threatened or rare species or their
habitats, including but not limited to plants, fish, insects, animals and birds. The project
site has been previously disturbed and graded, and street improvements have already
been installed on site. Development has occurred on parcels surrounding the site, and
the project can be considered infill development. There are no native species of plants,
no unique, rare, threatened or endangered species of plants, no native vegetation on
or adjacent to the site. Further, there is no indication that any wildlife species exist, or
that the site serves as a migration corridor. A DeMinimus impact finding can be made
for this project.

CULTURAL RESOURCE REVIEW
DATE: r'~clxj i lqq~
RE: Case Transmittal Reference Designation: 'PA q 8- DI 2, 6,
Records at the Eastern Information Center of the Cal itbrnia Historical Resources Intbrmation System have
been reviewed to determine if this project would adversely affect prehistoric or historic culturn/resources:
The proposed project area has not been surveyed for cultural resources and contains or is adjacent to kzown cultural
resource(s). A Phasc I study is recommended.
Based upon existing data the proposed project area has the potential for containing cultural resources. A Phase 1 study
is recommended.
A Phase I cultural reaourcc study (Mr #
) identified one or more cultural resources.
The project area contains, or has the possibility of containing, cultural resources. However, due to the nature of the
project or prior data recovery studies, an adverse effect on cultural resources is not anticipated. Further study is not
recommended.
..~ A Phase I cultural resource study (MF # ~oT'it'7' ) identified no cultural resources. Further study is not recommended.
__ There is a low probability of cultural resources. Further study is not recommended.
If, during constr'~ction, cultural resources are encountered, work should be halted or dive~ed in the immediate area while
qualified archaeologist evaluates the Finds and makes recommendations.
Due to the archaeological sensitivity of the area, eaz~hmoving during construction should be monitored by a professional
archaeologist.
The submission of a cultural resource management report is recommended following guidelines for Archaeological
Resource Management Reports prepared by the California Office o f Historic Preservation, Preservation Planning Bulletin
4(a), December 1989.

DISCUSSION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
1.b
The project will not conflict with applicable environmental plans or polices adopted by agencies with jurisdiction
over the project. The project is consistent with the City's General Plan Land Use Designation of BP (Busthess
Park). Impacts from all C. meral Plan Land Use Designations were enaly'zed m the Environmental Impact Report
for (EER) the General Plan. Agencies with jurisdiction within the City commented on the scope of the analysis
contained in the Ell>, and how the land uses would impact their pamcular agency. Mitigation measures approved
with the EIRwill be applied to this project. Further, all agencies withjurisdiction over lhe project are also being
given the oppommity to comment on the project and it is anticipated that they will make the appropriate comments
as to how the project relates to their specific environmental plans or polices. The project site has been previously
Faded and services have been extended into the area. There will be limited, ff any enviromental effects on
environmental plans or polices adopted by agencies with jurisdiction over the project. No significant effects are
anticipated as a result oftIris project.
].c
The proposed office, warehouse and manufacturing building will not be incompatible with existing land use, and
will not to be considered incompatible or mapact the exisUng adjacent office and industrial buildings in the vicimty.
The project has been designed to comply with the City-Wide Desig~ Guidelines as well as the Development Code
regulations in terms of size, bulk and mass, architectural design, landscaping, etc., to be compatible with the
surrounding area. N.o significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project.
].e
The project will not disrupt or divide the physical ammgernent of an established enrnmumty (including low-income
or minority community). The project is proposed on a vacant parcel that is zoned BP (Business Park) which does
not allow residential development of any kind. Therefore, there are no established residential communities
(including low-me or minority commumties) at this site, and significant effects are not anticipated as a result
of this project.
2. POPULATION AND HOUSING. Would be proposal:

c. Displace existing hourrag, especially affordable housing7
(Source 1, Figure 2-1, Page 2-17)
[] [] [] [~
DISCUSSION OF TI-IE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
2.a
The project will not curnulatively exceed official regional or local population projections. The project will
construct an office, manufactunng and warehouse building which is consistent with the City's General Plan Land
Use Designation of Business Park. Since the project is consistent with the City's General Plan, and does not
exceed the floor area ratio for the Business Park zoning classification, it will not be a significant contributor to
population growth which will cumulatively exceed official regional or local population projections. No significant
effects are anticipated as a result of this project.
2.b
The project will not induce substantial growth in the area either directly or indirectly. The project is consistent
with the General Plan Land Use Designation of Bnsiness Park. A portion of the building is planned for use by a
lceal business in need of larger facilities. The project may cause some people to relocate to or within Temecula;
however, due to its limited scale, it will not induce substantial growlh in the area. No sigrdficant effects are
anticipated as a result of this project.
2.c
The project will not displace housing, especially affordable housing as the site is a vacant lot zoned for Business
Park uses. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project.

DISCUSSION OF TIlE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
3.a,b,c,h The proposed development may have a significant impact on people involving fault rupture, seisrmc ground
shaking, and seismic ground failure (including liquefaction). The project is located in Southern California, an area
which is seismically active. A fault hazard zone runs along a portion of the eastern section of nearby property.
However, the project site is approximately 250 feet from the fault center line identified by the County Geologic
ISSUES Aj'ZD SUPPORTING INFORMATION SOURCES
Repo~ prepared for the underlymg Parcel Map No. 19582-2. Any potentially significant impacts will be mitigated
through building construction which is consistent with Uniform Building Code standards. Soil reporB shall be
submitted and reviewed prior to the issuance of permits. Recommendations contained in titis report will be used
to determine appropriate construction practices. The soils reports will also contain recommendations for the
compaction of the soft which will serve to mitigate any potentially significant impacts from seismic grotmd shaking,
seismic ground failure (including liquefaction), erosion, changes in topography or unstable soil conditions from
expansive soils. Modification to topography and ground surface relief features will not be considered significant
since modifications will be consistent with the surrounding development.
3.d
The project will not expose people to a soiehe, tsunanu or volcamc hazard. The project is not located in an area
where any of these hazards could occur. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will not expose people to landslides or mudflows. The Final Environmental Impact for the City of
Temecula General Plan has not identified any known landslides or mudslides located on the site or proxtrnate to
the site. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
3.f
The site is an unpmved lot that was previously graded; therefore, unstable soil conditions from excavation, grading
or fill is not anticipated with the proposed development.
3.i
The project will not impact umque geologic or physical features. The site is flat and no unique geologic features
or physieai features exist on the site. No signitieant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.

DISCUSSION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
4.a
The project site is a previously graded and improved lot. Some changes to absorption rates, drainage panems and
the rate and mount of surface runoff is expected whenever development occurs on previously vacant properly
However, due to the small scale of the project, changes anticipated with the proposed development are considered
less than sigm~canL I--Iardscape and landscape improvements will be required for this development, and drainage
conveyances will be require~ for the project to safely and adequately handle runoff once the building is constructed.
4.b.
The project site lies within the 100-year flood boundmy and within the identified dem inundation area of the City.
Potential impacts due to flooding can be mitigated through elevated construction in accordance with proper
building practices. With mitigation measures in place, no significant impacts are anticipated.
4.c
The project may have a potentially significant effect on discharges into surface waters and alteration of surface
water quality. Prior to msuance of a grading permit for the project, the developer will be required to comply with
the requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) penrat from the State Water
Resources Control Board. No grading shall be permiRed until an NPDES Notice of intent has been filed or the
project is shown to be exempt. By complying with the NPDES requagn~ents, any potential impacts can be
mitigated to a level less than significant. After mitigation measures are performed, no significant impacts are
anticipated as a result of this prolee[
4.d,e
The project will have a less than significant impact in a change in the amount of surface water in any water body
or napact c~ts, or to the course or direction of water movements. Additional surface runoff will occur because
previously permeable ground will be rendered impervious by construction of buildings, accompanying harriscape
and driveways. Due to the limited scale of the project, the additional amount of drainage into the City' s drainage
system will not considered significant. Less than significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
4.f-h
The project will have a less than significant change in the quantity and quality of ground waters, either through
direct additions or withdrawals, or through interception of an aquffer by cuts or excavations or through substantial
loss of groundwe recharge capability. Limited changes will occur in the quantity and quality of ground waters.
However, due to the minor scale of the project, it will not be considered significant. Further, construction on the
site will not be at depths sufficient to have a significant impact on ground waters. Less than significant impacts
are anticipated as a result of this project.
4.i
The project will not result in a substantial reduction in the amount of groundwater otherwise available for public
water supplies. According to information contained in the Final Environmental Impact Report for the City of
Temecula C. meral Plan, "Rancho California Water District indicate that they can accorrunodate additional water
demands." Water service currently exists in the immediate proximity to the project. Water service will need to
be provided by Rancho California Water District (RCWD). This is typically provided upon completion of financial
arrangements between RCWD and the property owner. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this
project.

DISCUSSION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
7.a
The project will not result in an impact to endangered, threatened or rare species or their habitats, including, but
not limited to plants, fish, insects, ammals and birds. The project site has been previously disturbed, graded and
improved. It is bordered on two sides by commercial development and fronts a principal collector roadway. The
project can be considered an refill development. Currently, there are no major vegetation, nor umque, rare,
threatened or endangered species of plants on the site. Further, there is no indication that any wildlife species e~st
at this location. The project will not reduce the number of species, provide a barrier to the migration of ammals
or deteriorate existing habitat. The project site is located within the Stephen's Kangaroo Rat Habitat Fee Area.
Habitat Conservation fens will be required to mitigate the effect of cumulative impacts to the species. No
significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
7.b
The project will not result in an impact to locs/ly designated species. Locally designa~:t species are protected in
the Old Town Temecula Specific Plan; however, they are not protected elsewhere in the City. Since this project
is not located m Old Town, and since there are no locally designated species on site, no significant impacts are
anticipated as a result of this project.

DISCUSSION OF TIE ENVIRONMENTAL IM?ACTS
lO.a The proposal will result in a tess than significant increase to existing noise levels. The site is currently vacant and
development efthe land logically will result in meteases to noise levels during construction phases as well as increases
to noise In the area over the long run. Long-term noise generated by this project would be similar to existing and
proposed uses in the area. Less than significant noise impacts are anticipated as a result of this project in either the
short or long-term,
10.b The project may expose people to severe noise levels during the developmentJconstruction phase (short run).
Construction rnaehinery is capable of producing noise in the range of 100+ DBA at 100 feet which is considered very
annoying and can cause hearing damage from steady 8-hour exposure. This source of noise will be of short duration
and therefore will not be considered significant. There will be no long-term exposure of people to noise. No
sigm~eant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.

DATE: June 3, 1998
SUBJECT:
Planning Application No. PA97-0349 - Amendment to Sections of the City's
Development Code Pertaining to On-Site Storage of Vehicles (Including Recreational
Vehicles) in Residential Zones
Prepared By:
Matthew Fagan, Associate Planner
RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning Department Staff recommends the Planning
Commission:
ADO~ R~solution No. 98- recommending that the City
Council approve a Resolution entitled: "A Resolution of the
City Council of the City of Temecula, California, Amending
Sections of the Temecula Development Code Pertaining to
On-Site Storage of Vehicles in Residential Zones" based upon
the Analysis and Findings contained in the Staff Report.
BACKGROUND
The Planning Commission was directed by the City Council, at the joint City Council/Planning
Commission Workshop on April 21, 1998, to consider the information and direction provided to them
at that meeting and provide a recormnendntion to the City Council regarding an Ordinance regulating
the on-site storage of vehicles in residential zones. Staff reviewed the comments and suggestions
from that meeting and provided issues and options for the Commission at their meeting of May 6,
1998. The Commission reviewed the issues which were accompanied by potential options and
received testimony from sixteen (16) residents at that meeting. At the conclusion of the meeting, the
Commission continued this item to their June 3, 1998 heating and directed staff to bring back a draft
Ordinance.
ANALYSIS
Staff has addressed and/or claritiad the following issues based upon the direction provided by the
Planning Commission: screening, paving, number of vehicles per lot, definition of vehicle, camper
shell and commercial trailers, setbacks and loading and unloading. Staff reviewed Section
17.24.020.D. of the Development Code, which addresses these issues, and has provided a revised
R:~3TAH~tFIX149PA97.I'C~ $f17/98 mf i
copy, which includes redlines for additions and strike outs for deletions, as Attachment No. 1 to this
Report. Additional definitions, as needed for clarification have been referenced below. Grand
lathering and additional staff resources will also be discussed below.
Definition of Vehicle
The Commission has requested clarification of the term "vehicle." Section 17.24.020.D. 1 .g of the
Development Code defines vehicles in the following manner: "Vehicles as used in this section shall
include, but not be limited to, commercial vehicles, automobiles, trucks, trailers, motor trucks, semi-
trailers, motorcycles, mopeds, campers, camper shells, boats or other large portable recreational and
commercial equipment." Based upon the discussion of the Commission, automobiles, motorcycles
and mope& can be deleted from this list. Staff recommends this Section be modified to address those
concerns and be expanded to include the following language: "...and other non-motorized vehicles,
regardless of length or width, that are detached from a motor vehicle." This Section, which staff
recommends be relocated to Section 17.24.020.D. 1 .a. would read:
"The parking of vehicles in all residential districts shall be subject to the provisions
listed below. "Vehicles" as used in this section shall include, but not be limited to,
commercial vehicles, recreational vehicles as defined in Section 18010 of the
Califomia Health and Safety Code, trucks, trailers, motor trucks, semi-trailers, house
cars, campers, camper shells, boats or other large portable recreational and
commercial equipment and other non-motorized vehicles, regardless of length or
width that are detached from a motor vehicle."
Camper Shells aM Commercial Trailers
The Commission stated that camper shells and commercial trailers should be included in the list of
items which also need to be regulated on-site. These items are currently covered in the definition of
"vehicle" which is contained in Section 17.24.020.D. of the Development Code (see above).
Definition of ParMng and Storage
There is no definition for parking or storage in the Development Code; however, these terms are used
in Section 17.24.020.D of the Development Code. Staff recommends the following language be
added to Section 17.24.020.D.l.d ofthe Development Code: "Parking shall be defined as the standing
of a vehicle, whether occupied or not, otherwise than temporarily for the purpose of and while
actually engaged in loading or unloading merchandise or passengers. Storage shall be defined to
mean to place or leave in a location for later use."
Number of Vehicles Per Lot
The Commission raised concerns regarding the overall number of vehicles which could be stored on
a single parcel. These concerns focused on safety, aesthetics and the ability to adequately screen all
the vehicles on-site. It is recommended that Section 17.24.020.D.l.m. be added to include the
appropriate language which will limit the overall number ofvehicies stored on-site. The exact number
of each type of vehicle, as well as the overall number of vehicles needs to be prescribed by the
Commission. Staff recommends that one or two vehicles per parcel is an appropriate place to begin
this discussion.
Setbacks
The Commission stated that they would like the Ordinance to restrict parking of vehicles in the from
of houses. The current language, contained in Section 17.24,020.D, 1 .d talks about side and rear
"yards." The Assistant City Attorney has reviewed this matter and states: "The Development Code
definition section defines a "required rear" or "required side yard" and "yard." The "required" type
of yard is coincident and serves as a second way to defne setback. He recommends a distinction
between "required yard" and a new definition such as "actual yard" be added to Section 17.34 of the
Development Code. He recommends that "actual yard" be defined as follows: "The area between
the horizontal plane of the building plane and the property line." The following change would be
required to Section 17.24.020.D. in order to achieve the Comimssion's goal to restrict permanent
parking of vehicles in the front of the house:
Add a new definition for "actual yard" to Section 17.34 of the Development Code to
read as follows: "Actual Yard. The area between the horizontal plane of the building
plane and the property line."
Add the following sentence to Section 17.24.020.D.l.f.: "No permanent vehicle
parking shall be allowed in the actual from yard."
Screening
The Commission had concerns regarding the adequacy of screening in areas of the City where there
are large parcel subdivisions (% acre or larger). Current Development Code provisions (Section
17.24.020.D. 1 .d) states: "Vehicles may be parked or stored in the side or rear yard; provided, that
such area is screened from view from the street, public right-of-way and adjacent properties by a
fence, wall, or equivalent screening material at least five feet in height." This minimum dimension
serves to screen the bottom portion of the vehicles, which can often exceed ten feet in height. To
raise the minimum height requirement over six feet would result in requiring the screening materials
to be engineered and risk ~'eater obstruction of the views, etc. from adjacent lots. The Assistant City
Attorney has noted in a memo: "As with any residential area, such things as swing sets, patio covers,
umbrellas, gazeboa, and other such constructs protrude above the fence lines." It is his opinion that
it is neither "possible nor desirable" to create full-height screening measures that would be
appropriate in a residential area.
Paving
The Commission directed staff to clarify the definition of "paving." According to Section
17.24.050.C of the Development Code: "All required parking spaces, recreational vehicle storage
areas, material storage areas and associated driveways shall be paved in accordance with the design
and construction specifications established by the city engineer." Based upon discussions with the
Assistant City Engineer, this Section can be modified to read as follows: insert languageprovided
from Deputy Director of Public Works
Loading and Unloading
Current Development Code provisions (Section 17.24.020.D.l.f) state: "Except as provided in herein,
vehicles parked within public view in required or authorized parking areas within the from yard,
comer yard or side yard abutting a street shall be parked or leR standing for temporary periods of
time not to exceed five days." At previous meetings, the Commission discussed limiting this time
period to two (2) days or forty-eight (48) hours. This would allow for temporary loading and
unloading of the vehicles in the front yard setback area.
The following language is recommended to achieve the Commission's recommendation:
"Except as provided in herein, vehicles temporarily parked within public view in required or
authorized parking areas within the actual front yard, comer side yard or side yard abutting
a street shall be parked or leR standing for periods of time not to exceed two (2) consecutive
days for loading, unloading and providing minor service to the vehicle."
Other Minor Clean-Up Items to Section 17.24.020.D
Staff reviewed Section 17.24.020.D. of the Development Code and de{ermined that numbering was
inaccurate. This has been rectified and the corrected Section 17.24.020.D. of the Development Code
is included as Attachment No. 1 to this Staff Report.
Grandfathering
The Commission stated at the May 6, 1998 hearing that they were not in favor of grandfathering or
allowing a grace period for vehicle owners which were existing prior to the adoption of the
Development Code in January, 1995. The rationale for this determination is based on the face that
a majority of the residential developments within the City are covered by CC&R' s which prohibit the
storage of certain types of vehicles, to include recreational vehicles, boats, commercial vehicles,
trailers, etc. in the front yard setback area (i.e., driveway).
Additional Staff Resources
As stated in the Staff Report for the February 2, 1998 Planning Commission meeting, increased
enforcement of Development Code provisions regulating on-site storage of vehicles would require
additional staff resources. As stated above, enforcement of the Code was primarily driven by
complaints reoeived ~'om residents. According to Code Enforcement staff, enforcement of this item
required approximately 30-40% of their staff hours and would require the same if they were to pro-
actively enforce the Ordinance. In order to effectively enforce these regulations, one-half of a Code
Enforcement staff person would be required at the current time. The cost to the City (in 1998
dollars) would be $27,259.00 annually. This figure would likely be higher in future years.
Other Municipal Code Regulations of Vehicles
The Assistant City Attorney has recommended that staff review other sections of the City' s Municipal
Code which have regulations pertaining to on-site storage of vehicles so that the proposed
amendments to the Development Code will not create any internal inconsistencies. Staff will be
reviewing the Municipal Code utter adoption of the amendments to the Development Code and
bringing back any clean-up amendments to the Commission for their review.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Staff will be conducting the appropriate environmental review based upon the recommendation from
the Planning Commission to the City Council. This will accompany the City Council Staff Report and
will be subject to the noticing requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act.
FINDINGS
1. Section 65800 of the Government Code provides for the adoption and administration of
zoning laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations by cities to implement such general plan as
may be in effect in any such city.
2. There is a need to amend the Development Code to protect the public health, safety and
welfare
3. The proposed Ordinance complies with all applicable requirements of State law and local
ordinances.

Dear City Planner Matthew Fagan,
I am writing you in regards to the controversial subject of
RV parking on my own property.
When our family moved to Temecula in 1987, my wife and
I looked specifically for a development with NO HOAs. From past
experience we found HOAs to be very restrictive and
manipulative by those who sat on the Board. Now it seems as
though the City is considering a measure that will dictate what I
can and can't park in my own driveway! We don't think this is
right. Not everyone can afford a custom home with multiple car
or custom garages for storage of their RVs.
Storage parks aren't the answer for everyone. First and
foremost there is the cost for storage. In most cases, minimal
cost is minimal security. I know of people whose property has
been burglarized or vandalized. So for more security you must
pay more!
Which also brings up the question of whether Temecula
can meet the need for a sudden increase of storage of RVs.
I think not! In turn, rates would climb because of supply and
demand.
I know in some cases there needs to be some restrictions.
For instance, RVs that are so large, that when parked in a
driveway, they block the sidewalk. But consider the individual
with a ski boat or tent trailer, which are usually smaller than a
Suburban or full-sized pickup truck. Most of these can be parked
in a driveway, without blocking the sidewalk or a persons view.
For instance, our tent trailers' height is lower than our car.
I agree with the restrictions on parking RVs on the City
streets. But please consider that not everyone has the option of
storage to the sides of their homes or can afford paying storage
fees.
So in closing, I know your intentions are good. But I ask
you to consider, when making your decision, of possible
exceptions for size or type of RV to be parked in the driveway.
Thank you.
Respectfully, _
J~hn and Karen Conaway ~
