Chairwoman Slaven recommended to discuss Agenda Item No. 7 out of order;, there was voiced no
objection,
Finding of Public Convenience or Necessity for Quick Stop Market on Rancho California
Road and Lvndie Lane
Planning Manager Ubnoske advised that the applicant is requesting that the Planning Commission
make a public convenience or necessity find in order to sell liquor and clarified that the market
currently sells beer and wine.
In an effort to eliminate travel time for his customers, Mr. Ibrahim D. Ibrehim, the applicant, stated
that he would like to provide alcohol to his customers for their convenience; noted, for security
concerns, his hours of operation would be from 6:00 A.M. to 10:00 P.M. weekdays and to 11:00
P.M. weekends.
With regard to Commissioner Naggar's querying as to where the criteda questionnaire originated (in
the staff report), Planning Manager Ubnoske clarified that in the past, staff, with the help of the City
Attomey, drafted this to help justify the criteda for making a finding.
With regard to Commissioner Naggar's referencing the first two questions and responses of the
questionnaire, Attorney Cudey advised that the Commission review the criteria in a general
geographical sense, rather than subclassification as to race, color, or creed and advised that the
questionnaire would be reviewed.
For Commissioner Naggar, in regard to querying whether the inclusion of hard liquor would
contribute to law enforcement problems, Commissioner Guerdero advised that from a law
enforcement standpoint, liquor stores have in other areas contributed to increased crime. Mr.
Guerriero questior~ed the rationale for additional alcoholic establishments in light of the School
Distdct's on-going efforts to promote on anti"drug and anti-alcohol campaigns as well as those eftotis
of law enforcement to combat alcohol-related problems. As to creating a preliferation of alcoholic
businesses, it was noted that that while not wanting to depdve any businessman's livelihood, it was
the Commission's quest to preserve the publids best interest, as to health, safety, and welfare.
Commissioner Naggar advised that due to the dose proximity of the existing uses providing alcoholic
accessibility (located east of the major intersection at Rancho California Road and Ynez Road -
Albertson's and Sav-On ) and since there were no boundaries or barriers (i.e., hills, rivers,
freeways), it was noted that separating this use from other aforementioned existing uses would not
be justification in a finding of convenience.
In contrast, Commissioner Webster, with respect to boundades, viewed Rancho California Road as
a major road and, therefore, viewed this as a barrier which would substantiate as a finding of
convenience. in light of the applicant's response to Question No. 7 of the questionnaire (that there
are no convenience establishments within a quarter mile of the proposed establishment) would also
qualify as a finding of convenience.
With regard to Question No. 7 of the questionnaire, Commissioner Soltysiak advised that the
question querying if there is a. proliferation of licensed establishments doesn't constitute solely
convenience establishments. Mr. Soltysiak commented that since the other criteria is somewhat
vague and subjective, in the past when such uses were brought before the Commission, a map was
provided noting current existing licensed establishments providing pedinent analysis for establishing
whether or not there exists a proliferation of such uses.
For Commissioner Soltysiak, Planning Manager Ubnoske noted that staff wasn't currently aware of
the number of such licensed establishments existing within a quarter mile of this establishment;
clarified that it has been established there is an overconcentration of such existing uses in.the area
and most of Riverside County; and clarified that the pdmary issue is deciding whether or not there
is a finding of convenience or necessity.
With regard to Commissioner Naggar's question. Planning Manager Ubnoske clarified that the
Commission's decision is appealable to the City Council; as to further clarification, Attorney Cudey
advised that typically ABC views an approval by the City's governing body as establishing no adverse
impact on the local environment. Although there might be grounds for disapproval later, he noted
that the approval by the City provides a gateway for further process.
For Commissioner Soltysiak, Planning Manager advised that this application, for this particular
establishment, will most likely not be readdressed by the Commission at a future meeting, due to the
fact that Mr. Ibrahim was currently in escrow and that his determination was contingent on the
Commission's action this evening.
Following lengthy discussion. based on the analysis and findings provided, ChainNoman Slaven
reiterated the Commissioners' comments, stating it was the general consensus of the Planning
Commission to have made no finding of public convenience or necessity, due to the following
criteria:
that there was no qualifying unique feature. clarifying that unique usually
encompassed an entertainment-type use or special service-type use
tha:t the proposed addition of liquor at this location could increase law enforcement
problems
that there were sensitive uses in the vicinity of the area, such as: churches and
preschools
that, with regard to the use catering to an under-served population, and any
geographical boundary, or barrier separating this use from other licensed
establishments, the Commission noted that the use already sells beer and wine;
determined that the known, existing licensed establishments provide easily
accessible and ample provision to the public
it was not the intent of the Commission to promote an overly dense saturation of such
uses
At this point the hearing went back to the regular order of the Agenda.
Approve the twenty-seven foot (27') hicih free-standinci sicin for The Promenade in
Temecula {PA98-0370|
By way of overheads, Senior Planner Fagan presented the sign elevation and location; noted that
the proposed sign is consistent with the design of the mall; for Commissioner Webster noted that
although there are other off-site signs, this will be the only primary entry sign, pursuant to Section
111. C 11 (Development Standard, On-Site Signs) of the Temecula Regional Center Specific Plan;
for Commissioner Naggar, commented that this sign far exceeds the size of a housing tract sign; and
for Commissioner Soltysiak, advised that the matedal of the sign has been designed to be low-
maintenance.
Commissioner Webster commended staff on their efforts with the design of a 27' sign versus the
allowable 36'.
Commissioner Guerdero, echoed by Commissioner Naggar, expressed dissatisfaction with the
design, desirous of more provision for visual interest, recommending addition of stucco, bdck or rock.
Mr. Tom Gruber of KA, Inc., architecture representing the applicant, noted that the original intent
was to keep the design light and airy.
For Commissioners Soltysiak and Naggar, Mr. Gruber clarified that the sign is basically a painted
metal structure, noting that the letters are internally illuminated at night; and advised that the design
could incorporate a stone base.
The consensus of the Planning Commission was disapproval of the comer monumentation located
at the southeast comer of Winchester and Ynez Roads.
Chairwoman Slaven recommended bringing back to the Commission a new revision.
Senior Planner Fagan reiterated the Commission's comments, as follows: that the base of the sign
be enhanced, and that on the two support structures. additional articulation with stucco application.
For Chairwoman Slaven, Planning Manager Ubnoske recommended bringing back to the
Commission the e!evations of approved projects and entdes of the Mall to reodent the Commission,
to provide a basis for a finding of consistency.
Chairwoman Slaven further advised, for visual interest, some softening affect, not solely metal.
Review and apl~rove the corner monumentation located at the southwest comer of
Winchester and MarClarita Roads; review the three options forthe corner
monumentation located at the southeast comer of Winchester and Ynez Roads; and
I~revide direction to staff regardin~3 the preferred option for the corner monumentation
located at the southeast comer of Winchester and Ynez Roads. {:PA98-0369)
By way of color renderings, Senior Planner Fagan presented the options for the comer
monumentations.
Mr. Steve Schafenacker, representing the applicant, noted for Chairwoman Slaven that Forest Hills
will turn this project over for construction to the Power Center Developers after tonight's direction
on the design phase; and clarified that the matedal of the sign was painted metal and the base is
stone, although incorrectly indicated as block wall in the staff report.
Senior Planner Fagan clarified for Commissioner Soltysiak that it was the intent to bdng general
option designs to the Commission for input regarding details, such as colore and materials.
'7
Chairwoman Slaven recommended more detail with regard to landscaping, and to provide a
rendering representing the exact landscape plan.
Commissioner Webster recommended the addition of a stone veneer or some other type of material,
rather than just metal.
In regard to the description of the wall panel, Commissioner Soltysiak recommended clarification in
the language, commenting it was too vague.
Director of Public Works Parks recommended bringing the site plan back to the Commission to clarify
how the monumentation relates to the conidor, assuring the view was not blocked.
As to the Developer's time constraints, the applicant clarified that the Design Guidelines had
precedence over the monument signs at the comers.
It was the consensus of the Commission, after review, to not approve the comer monumentations
located at the southwest comer of Winchester and Margarita Roads and at the southeast comer of
Winchester and Ynez Roads.
Senior Planner Fagan clarified that he was clear of the direction the Commission wanted to go.
Chairwoman Slaven advised bringing the project back to the Commission with additional information
and detail.
Review Plannin{:l Aloplication No. PA-0371 (Development Plan) - DeskIn Guidelines; and
approve Planning Application No. PA98-0371 (Development Plan) - Design Guidelines.
Senior Planner Fagan presented the Design Guidelines (per agenda material).
With regard to Section B, under Site Access and Traffic Flow, specifically drive-through facilities,
Senior Planner Fagan clarified, for Commissioner Webster, each Center's distinct components; and
further noted that as to the Village Center Overlay, the Specific Plan takes precedence, which
applies at this site.
With regard to Section C, under Site Parking, Senior Planner Fagan clarified, for Commissioner,
Guerriero the rationale for the 90 degree parking, instead of angled-parking; and noted, for
Chairwoman Slaven, the 9-foot parking space does allow for double-striping.
With regard to Section D, under Site Paving, Director of Public Works Parks clarified asphalt paving
for Commissioner Guerdero; as to colored-paving at each entrance, Senior Planner Fagan advised,
for Commissioner Soltysiak, that earth tones could be added into the pallet, that language could
be added for clarification, as to entdes, further clarifying that this section could be moved to Section
H, under Entrances.
With regard to Section F, Site Utilities, Chairwoman Slaven commended the Design Guidelines for
rendering all utilities underground.
With regard to Section H, under Materials and Colors, Senior Planner Fagan clarified, for
Chairwoman Slaven, the intent of the guidelines to have the main entrance on the front, facing the
street; under Architectural Design and Entrances, Mr. Steve Schafenacker, representing the
applicant, recommended for, Commissioner Guerriero, the following language modification must
adhere in paragraph one and then the term should for consistency with The Promenade in
Temecula and in the second paragraph reflected an element of flexibility the development needed
for such uses where deemed appropriate by staff (i.e., a gas station). Planning Manager Ubnoske
further clarified that the language can be strengthened for consistency, leaving room for.flexibility
where it is warranted.
With regard to the Outlot Sign Cdteda Section, Senior Planner Fagan advised, for Commissioner
Webster, that permitting four signs was typical, one per side of the building, and consistent with the
Specific Plan; dadfled, for Commissioner Guerdero, as to the size of the signs, that the 30% of the
length and height of the facade of the building, was consistent with the Specific Plan; and as to neon
signs, Mr. Shafenacker assured Chairwoman Slaven that the mall wouldn't be devaluated by
obtrusive neon lights, clarifying that the neon-signing could be constructed in a tasteful manner.
With regard to the Landscaping Section, Commissioner Webster advised that since the parking lot
landscaping requirement was 50 pement of the parking stall when the trees reach maturity, the use
of an alternative tree, rather than the Eucalyptus tree would be more effective; Senior Planner
Fagan, for Commissioner Soltysiak, clarified the rationale for the landscaping being different in
monument areas in order to create distinction, further advised that the language could be clarified
to reflect minor entry statements or landscal~ing, instead of the word monument and Mr.
Shafenacker clarified that the minor entries would be constructed by the outlot developer.
With the aforementioned recommendations, it was the consensus of the Commission to approve
Planning Application No. 98-0371(Development Plan)- Design Guidelines.

approve the request.
By way of overheads, Assistant Planner Anders presented the staff report (of record); noted that

screening berm wasn't reflected on the renderings due to the desire to not block the building's
development and design.
With regard to COmmissioner Webster's quenjing as to the denotation checked by aesthetics on

particular project will be consistent with the General Plan.
For Chairwoman Slaven, Ms. Anders further clarified the landscape screening of the loading area;
defined FAR (Floor Area Ratio) as the percentage of total square footage of the building; noted the
Development Code allows for flexibility; and advised that the requested 9% increase is relatively
nominal.
Mr. Scott Buckles, representing the applicant, clarified the justifiable rationale for the request for the
FAR increase, as follows: 1) an additional 10-15 employees are being added to their staff (viewed
as an asset to the community), warranting the need for the additional square feet; 2) this padicular
project's enhanced development and building articulation which meets the criteda requirement;
reviewed, in detail, the project site plan; noted, for Commissioner Soltysiak, that the tinted concrete
would be sealed; and clarified, for Commissioner Webster, the color of the roll-up doors will be grey.
Director of Public Works Parks addressed the planned measure that would alleviate traffic on
Winchester Road, as follows: creating a raised landscaped median on Winchester Road, from
Jefferson Avenue to Enterprise Circle West, with a signal at Enterprise Circle West; Murrieta's
proposed widening of Jefferson Avenue to four lanes throughout their city; the relief provision of the
Rancho California Road Interchange; noted that the City Council has advised moving the goal for
the completion of the Ovedand Bddge Project to October of 1999; and informed the Commission of
the City of Temecula's current deliberations with the City of Murdeta to work on traffic and circulation
solutions as a joint venture, noting that there is a representative from the City of Muftieta in the City's
traffic circulation meetings.
Director of Public Works Parks advised that the main concem of staff with this particular project, with
regard to traffic and circulation was the originally proposed two driveways, with entrance onto
Winchester Road; and clarified that this has been revised to maintain one driveway.
Although commending the project, Commissioner Naggar noted that the site, as proposed, has
utilized numerous allowances and exceptions, such as: a) zero foot lot line, b) elimination of parking
spaces, per credit for provision of bicycle spaces c) a front loading area, to be screened by a
landscaping plan not represented for visual review on the site plan, and d) a FAR increase, which
doesn't appear to meet the qualifying cdteda in the Development Code 17.08, Sections 1 and 2, as
worded. (*For further comments on this issue, see Commission Reports, page 6, section B.)
Planning Manager Ubnoske clarified, for the Commission, the FAR requirements; noted that the .40
FAR requirement is a target, with allowances for the flexibility that facilitates meeting the needs of
the particular project; reiterated that the request for the FAR increase on this project was a minor
exception; and advised that staff will investigate the language in the Code concerning qualifying
criteda warranting a FAR increase.
Commissioners Guerriero and Soltysiak commended the project.
Commissioner Webster recommended modifying the landscape plan, as follows;
tha~ the two Queen Palms (one on the east portion of the project, one on the west)
be replaced with an evergreen-type tree
that the three Bottle Trees (in the rear triangular comer of the project) be replaced
with Camphor Trees
Mr. Vince Didonab, landscape architect, representing the applicant, was agreeable to the
modifications.
Chairwoman Slaven expressed support of the project.
MOTION: Commissioner Guerriero moved to close the public headng; adopt the Negative
Declaration for Planning Application NO. PA98-0353; adopt the Mitigation Monitoring Program for
Planning Application No. PA98-0353; and adopt Resolution No. 98-036 recommending approval of
Planning Application No. PA98-0353 based upon the Analysis and Findings contained in the Staff
Report and subject to the attached Conditions of Approval, amended as follows:

Request to construct and operate a 53,541 square foot, two-story Chevrolet auto dealership and a
3,126 square foot Cadillac/Oldsmobile auto dealership with showrooms, offices, parts inventory, 50-
bay service building, paint booths and wash bays.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended by the Planning Department that the Planning Commission
approve the request.
Project Planner Donahoe presented the staff report, highlighting site design, architecture, access and circulation,
any landscaping, noting that this project utilized the new standards for automobile, motorcycle, and truck
dealerships; advised that the applicant is relocating and expanding its facilities; noted that the applicant is
requesting an exemption from the Development Code, regarding the requirement for bicycle and motorcycle parking
spaces due to the lack of need for this particular use (per agenda material, Attachment 3); noted that such an
exemption would be is in accordance with Section 17.24.040. F4 of the Development Code; and clarified, for
Commissioner Naggar, in regard to traffic concerns, that the access from Solana Way to the service booth area has
adequate provision, so as not to cause any stacking.
Director of Public Works Parks dadfled, for Commissioner Webster, the center alignment of the ddveway entrance
on Solana Way.
Project Planner Don~hoe noted, for Chairwoman Slaven, that although circulation will be provided around the entire
site, as proposed, the applicant did not propose a path, road or ddve connecting this dealership to adjoining
dealerships, alleviating the use of the main road, for security reasons.
Mr. Terry Gilmore, representing the applicant, commented, for Commissioner Webster, on the rationale
for placing the circular display on the northeast comer of the site was to utilize both points of the property
for display purposes; noted that the light standards will be white; and clarified the location of the inner
chain-linked fence; and referenced, for Commissioner Guerriere, the type of paint booths, giving assurance
there would be no unmitigated environmental hazards. For Chairwoman Slaven, Mr. Gilmore presented a
detailed overview of the location and security purpose of the chain-linked fence and cJarified access to the
site from Solaria Way.
Mr. Jerry Whit~eld, architect representing the applicant, reviewed the matedal specifications for the
different canopy-types at the various locations on the project.
Addressing Commissioner Guer~ero's concam, regarding dangerous speed on the private roadway on the
site plan, Director of Public Works Parks advised that although the speed in that area could be a relevant
issue, it was not recommended conditioning this project to the installation of speed undulations due to the
read being a pdvate road. Mr. Gilmore, in response to Mr. Park's request, stated that there would be no
problem granting the Police Department access to cite speed violators on the private roadway. Planning
Manager Ubnoske dadfled that staff had directed the applicant as to the necessity of access to the private
road for the purpose of relieving traffic on Ynez Road.
Commissioner Guen'iero concurred with Chairwoman Slaven's recommendation to replace the chain-linked
fence with a wrought iron fence on the project. Mr. Gilmore stated that he would comply with the
modification.
MOTION: Commissioner Naggar moved to close the public hearing; adopt Resolution No. 98-037,
approving Planning Application No. PA98-0350 based upon the Analysis and Findings contained in the Staff
Report and subject to the attaches Conditions of Approval, as follows:

PLANNING MANAGER'S REPORT
A. Planning Manager Ubnoske noted that the flag salute was going to be added to the Planning
Commission Meetings beginning November4, 1998.
B. For Commissioner Guerdero, Ms. Ubnoske advised that the Fire Department Marshall will be
addressing the Commission, regarding disclosure of hazardous materials at an upcoming Planning
Commission Meeting.
C. Ms. Ubnoske addressed, for Chairwoman Slaven, the Chevron station at the comer of Jefferson
Avenue and Rancho California Road, advising that staff will be addressing the softening of the canopy
color, noting that although this site is not consistent with conditions placed on other projects, staff viewed
the revision as an improvement, over the existing worsened licensed condition, and that the applicant could
maintain the existing condition with his current license; dadfled that any Directors Hearing Item,. such as
this one, could be pushed forward to the Planning Commission Meeting for approval at their request, via
a phone cell.
D. Ms. Ubnoske noted, for informational purposes, that the Convenience Store on Rancho Califomia
Road which was denied a liquor license is appealing that decision, and that it will be heard at the November
10, 1998, City Council Meeting.
Department has adopted new standards and that copies are currently available; advised, due to noted
Commission concern, that the sidewalk at Margadta Park will be addressed at the
E. Director of Public Works Parks noted for the Coremission that the Public Works Public Safety/Traffic
Commission Meeting November 12, 1998; noted that he would address, for Commissioner Soltysiak, the
intersection at Margadta Road and De Portola Road, at the Lucky's Shopping Center, specifically, the lack
of raised medians demaroating left turns in and out.
COMMISSION REPORTS
A. Planning Manager Ubnoske advised, for Chairwoman Slaven, the cdteria in the Development Code
for FAR (Floor Area Ratio) is designed for flexibility and a requested increase in FAR is based on
incentives. Ms. Slaven commented that the criteda warranting an increase should be based more on the
project as an entity in itself, rather that the developer.
B. Commissioner Naggar further clarified his conflict with the request for a FAR (Floor Area Ratio)
increase (*per Item 3 of the Agenda), as follows: that there is no clear-cut understanding of the cdteda (as
worded in the Code) warranting an increase, and that based on the fact there is a known existing traffic
problem, he, therefore, could find no justification for granting approval for the requested FAR increase
without creating a worsened condition; and recommended that the criteda for granting a FAR increase be
clarified. Ms. Ubnoske further dadfled that the Code allows for a maximum of 1.0, and that this particular
project was at .49, which is substantially lower than the maximum allowable.
C. Ms. Ubnoske suggested scheduling a traffic workshop with the Planning Commission, discussing
the current road improvement plans, in order to make the Commission aware of what is upcoming with
the City, concerning traffic.
ADJOURNMENT
At 7:54 P.M. Chairwoman Slaven formally adjourned this meeting to Wednesday. November 4. 1998, at

BACKGROUND
This project applicant approached the City in August of 1998 requesting that the project be
processed under the City's Fast Track Program. A pre-application meeting was held on September
17, 1998 with a formal application submitted on October 2, 1998. At the pre-application meeting,
a Fast Track schedule was developed which projected that this project would be brought before
the Planning Commission at this meeting (December2, 1998). A Development Review Committee
(DRC) meeting was held on October 20, 1998, with staff providing written comments on October
22, 1998. The project was deemed complete on November 10, 1998.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project consists of the design, construction and operation of a moving, storage, and
warehousing business with an associated 14,859 square foot building on a 2.11 acre site with
associated improvements, such as hardscape, parking, a paved truck parking area, landscaping
and drive aisles. Landscape improvements include parking lot landscape fingers, perimeter planter
areas, and streetscape plantings. The site also includes a 12,080 square area to be set aside for
potential future expansion of the building. This area is to be irrigated and hydroseeded in the
interim. The site currently is adequate in size to provide for the additional building area in terms of
R:\STAFFRPT\413pa98pC.doc
2
the Development Codes requirements for floor area ratio (FAR), parking and landscaping. Any
future development proposals; however, would require separate approval. As described, this
project will not involve any manufacture, processing or storage of hazardous materials.
ANALYSIS
Site Desion
The project is sited on an irregular-shaped parcel with the building located on the southern property
line in the southeast corner of the site. Parking is provided on either side of the drive aisle, which
runs through the center of the project. Loading areas are located on the northern side of the
building. Along the northern portion of the site, there is a large paved area, which is designed to
provide areas for the parking of large trucks. An employee outdoor lunch area has been located
at the southern end of the site, off the southwest comer of the building. The design of the site is
compatible with existing development in the area.
The building has been sited along the southern portion of the parcel due to the presence of a fault
at the northern property line. The building has been placed approximately 175 feet from the fault
line which complies with State requirements which stipulate that all inhabited buildings or buildings
intended for human occupancy be set back a minimum of 50 feet from a fault line. Conditions of
Approval, which require the project to meet all Uniform Building Code (UBC) requirements relative
to seismic standards, have been included.
Access, Traffic and Circulation
The project takes access from a single driveway off Zevo Drive. There is parking and vehicular
circulation along a central drive aisle. Truck traffic will utilize this main drive aisle and access
loading docks on the northern side of the building. The site also has a truck turn around and a
backing area in front of the loading docks, which provides more than adequate room for the
maneuvering and backing movements of trucks. Customers and employees will utilize the parking
along both sides of the drive aisle. Emergency vehicles have access to all portions of the building
from the drive aisle and turn around along the northern portion of the site.
Architecture
The building will be tilt-up concrete with smooth, painted panels and painted accent colors. The
office entry is highlighted with the use of windows, variation in building height along the front of the
building, and decorative paving. The applicant is also adding visual interest with the use of painted
reveals and varying paint colors. These features provide a certain amount of interest and to some
extent help to break up the mass of the building walls. The placement of trees and shrubs within
the landscape planters around the perimeter of the site on two sides, complement the building and
help break up the building's massing.
Because the building's south elevation is on the property line there will be no landscaping to help
soften this elevation. It is anticipated that the future development of the parcel to the south will
ultimately screen this elevation from the adjacent property. In addition, this elevation faces the
west and as a consequence is not visible from Diaz and the freeway.
R:\STAFFRPT\413pa98pC.dOC
3
Landscapine
Twenty percent (20%) of the site has been landscaped which is consistent with the 20% minimum
landscaping requirement in the LI (Light Industrial) zone. The project provides a minimum seven-
foot (7') wide perimeter landscaping planter around approximately 75% of the site. Ths planter
along the northern perimeter is ten feet (10') wide. Along Zevo Drive, a 25-foot wide planter is
being provided along the front of the site. The applicant proposes to utilize Liquid Amber trees
along the front of the site as street trees and Eucalyptus trees along the perimeter and in the
parking area.
EXISTING ZONING AND GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION
The General Plan Land Use designation for the site is LI (Light Industrial). Existing zoning for the
site is LI (Light Industrial). Office/warehouse uses are permitted with the approval of a
development plan pursuant to Chapter 17.05 of the Development Code. The project as proposed,
meets all minimum standards of and is consistent with the General Plan, Development Code and
the Design Guidelines.
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. In
addition, the site has previously been graded/disturbed, improvements have been installed and as
a consequence the project will not impact endangered, threatened or rare species, or the site will
not serve as a migration corridor. Therefore, staff is recommending that the Negative Declaration
for PA 98-0413 be adopted for this project and a Finding of DeMinimus impact be made.
SUMMARWCONCLUSIONS
The project is the design, construction and operation of a moving, storage, and warehousing
business with a 14,859 square foot building on a 2.11 acre site. The project is consistent with the
Design Guidelines, Development Code and the General Plan.
FINDINGS
The proposed use is in conformance with the General Plan 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 (Mt. 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.
3. The project will not result in an impact to endangered, threatened or rare species or their
habitats, or to wildlife dispersal or migration corridors. The project site has been previously
disturbed and graded, and streetscape installed on site. There are no native species of
R:\STAFFP, PT\413pag8pC.dOC

plants or vegetation at the site, nor any 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.

CULTURAI, RESOURCE REVIEW
DATE:
RE: Case Transmittal Reference Designation:
Records at the Eastern Information Center of the California Historical Resources Information System have
been reviewed to determine if this project would adversely affect prehistoric or historic cultural resources:
The proposed project area has not been surveyed for cultural resources and contains or is adjacent to known cultural
resource(s). A Phase I study is recommended.
Based upon existing data the proposed project area has the potential for containing cultural resources. A Phase I study
is recommended.
A Phase I cultural resource study (MF #
) 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.
Phase I cultural resource study (MF # 35 ~ ) identified no cultural resources. Further study is not recommended.
__ There is a low probability of cultural resources. Further study is not recommended.
If, during construction, cultural resources are encountered, work should be halted or diverted in the immediate area while
a qualified archaeologist evaluates the rinds and makes recommendations.
Due to the archaeological sensitivity o f the area, earthmoving 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 of Historic Preservation, Preservation Planning Bulletin
4(a), December 1989.

I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will not
be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on an attached sheet have
been added to the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be prepared.
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an
ENVIRONMENTAL'IMPACT REPORT is required
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect(s) on the environment, but at least one
effect 1 ) has been adequately analyzed in an earlier document pursuant to applicable legal standards,
and 2) has been addressed by mitigation measures based on the earlier analysis as described on
attached sheets, if the effect is a "potentially significant impact" or "potentially significant unless
mitigated." An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must analyze only the effects
that remain to be addressed.
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there WILL
NOT be a significant effect in this case because all potentially significant effects (a) have been analyzed
adequately in an earlier EIR pursuant to applicable standards and (b) have been avoided or mitigated
pursuant to that earlier EIR, including revisions or mitigation measures that are imposed upon the
proposed project.

Comments:
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 Business Park (BP). Impacts from all General
Plan Land Use Designations were analyzed in the Environmental Impact Report for (EIR) the General Plan. Agencies with
jurisdiction within the City commented on the scope of the analysis contained in the EIR and how the land uses would impact their
particular agency. Mitigation measures approved with the EIR will be applied to this project. Further, all agencies with jurisdiction
over the project are also being given the opportunity 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 graded and services have been extended into the area. There will be limited, if any environmental effects on
environmental plans or polices adopted by agencies with jurisdiction over the project. No significant effects are anticipated as a
result of this project.
The project will not disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of an established community (including low-income or minodty
community). The project site is vacant. There is no established residential community (including low-income or minority
community) at this site. Furthermore, the site is an industrially zoned property that does not allow residential developments. No
significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project.

Comments:
2.a. The project will not cumulatively exceed official regional or local population projections. The project is an industrial building that is
consistent with the City's General Plan Land Use Designation of Business Park. Since the project is consistent with the City's
R:\CEQA\413pa98.ies.doc
General Plan, and does not exceed the floor area ratio for Business Park, it will not be a significant contributor to population
growth that 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 Business Park. The project will not likely cause people to relocate to or within Temecuta, but will
serve the needs of existing residents. Therefore, the project will not induce substantial growth in the area, land no significant
effects are anticipated as a result of this project.
2.c. The project will not displace any type of housing. The project site is vacant industrially zoned property; therefore no housing will
be displaced. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project.

The project may have a potentially significant impact on people involving fault rapture as the project is located in Southem
California, an area that is seismically active. A fault runs along the project's eastam property line. In addition the project site
lies completely within an Alquist-Priolo Special Studies Zone. A Geotechnical Report addressing Tentative Pamel Maps
24085, 24086, 21029.21382 and 21383, prepared by Schaefer Dixon dated August 15, 1989 identities the location of the fault
and establishes mitigation for impacts associated with this fault. Pursuant to State Law the project will be required locate any
structures inhabited or occupied by humans 50 feet from any fault. The project will be required through conditions of approval
to locate all structures a minimum of 50 feet from any faults in the vicinity of the site. Any potentially significant impacts will
also be mitigated through building construction, which is consistent with Uniform Building Code standards. Prior to the
issuance of grading permits the submission a soils report will also be required. The conclusions and recommendations
contained in this report will be utilized in the development of this site, which will serve to mitigate any potentially significant
related to fault rapture. After mitigation measures are performed, no significant effects are anticipated as a result of this
project.
3.b The project may have a potentially significant impact on people involving seismic ground shaking as the project is located in
Southern California, an area which is seismically active. The project is associated with a fault, which runs along the project's
eastern property line. The site is also located in an Alquist-Pdolo Special Studies Zone. A Geotechnical Report addressing
Tentative Parcel Maps 24085, 24086, 21029, 21382 and 21383, prepared by Schaefer Dixon dated August 15, 1989 identifies
the location of the fault and the special studies zone associated with the fault. The report also establishes mitigation for
impacts associated with the faults and any of the faults associated fault zones. To minimize the impacts associated to ground

shaking, in compliance with State Law, mitigation measures and conditions will be established requiring the project to locate
all structures inhabited or occupied by humans 50 feet from any fault. Any potentially significant impacts will also be mitigated
through building construction, which is consistent with Uniform Building Cede standards. Prior to the issuance of grading
permits the submission a soils report will also be required. The conclusions and recommendations contained in this report will
be utilized in the development of this site, which will serve to mitigate any potentially significant retated to ground shaking.
After mitigation measures are performed, no significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project may have a potentially significant impact in that it may expose people to ground failu~'e associated with
liquefaction, subsidence and expansive soils. The project is located in a liquefacbon zone, in an area of potential subsidence
and in an area of expansive soils. In order to mitigate any potentially significant impacts associated with liquefaction,
subsidence and expansive soils the project will be conditioned to provide a detailed soils report prior to the issuance of
grading pe~its. The conclusions and recommendations contained in this report will be utilized in the development of this
site, which will serve to mitigate any potentially significant impacts from ground failure, subsidence and expansive soils. In
addition, any potentially significant impacts will be mitigated through building construction, which is consistent with Uniform
Building Code (UBC) standards. After mitigation measures are performed, no significant effects are anticipated as a result of
this project.
The project will not expose people to a seiche, tsunami or volcanic hazard. The project is not located in an area where any of
these hazards could occur. No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will not expose people to landslides or mudflows. The Final Environmental Impact Report for the City of
Temecula General Plan has not identified any known landslides or mudslides located on the site or proximate to the site. No
significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will have a less than significant impact from erosion, changes in topography, grading or fill. The site has been
previously graded and the project does not propose significant grading beyond that which has already occurred. Increased
wind and water erosion of soils both on and off-site may occur dudng the construction phase of the project and the project
may result in changes in siltation, deposition or erosion. Erosion control techniques will be included as a condition of approval
for the project. In the long-run, hardscape and landscaping will serve as permanent erosion control for the project. Since the
amount of grading will be the minimum necessary for the realization of the project, modification to topography and ground
surface relief features will not be considered significant. Potential unstable soil conditions from excavation, grading or fill will
be mitigated through the use of landscaping and proper compaction of the soils. A less than significant impact with respect to
erosion, changes in topography or unstable soil conditions as a result of grading operations is anticipated as a result of this
project.
The project will not impact unique geologic or physical features. No unique geologic features or physical features exist on the
site. No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.

Comments:
The project will result in changes to absorption rates, drainage patterns and the rate and amount of surface runoff. Previously permeable
ground will be rendered impervious by construction of buildings, accompanying hardscape, parking, and driveways. While absorption rates
and surface runoff will change, potentjal impacts shall be mitigated through site design. Drainage conveyances will be required for the project
to safely and adequately handle runoff, which is created. Afler mitjgation measures are performed, no significant impacts are anticipated as a
result of this project.
4.b.
The project could have a significant impact to people or property relative to water related hazards such as flooding since a small portion of the
project site is located within Zone AE of the Murrieta Creek floodplain (areas within the 100-year floodplain) as identified by Flood
Insurance Rate Map Panel No. 060742-0005-B (November 20, 1996). The Flood Insurance Rate Map provides approximate
flood plain limits and 100-year flood plain elevations to which buildings must be elevated. To mitigate these potentially significant
impacts to a level of insignificance the project will be conditioned to provide a detailed hydrology study and grading plans, and
receive City approval of storm drain improvement plans to ensure that the on-site structures will be floodproofed and that tributary
storm flows around the site will be conveyed to an acceptable outlet in accordance with the approved hydrology study prior to the
issuance of a grading permit. The project will not be permitted to increase flows or divert flows to impact any adjacent properties.
It may also be necessary to install storm drain facilities or other improvements along Temecula Lane and through the site to
protect the project and convey storm flows to an adequate outlet.
The site is also located within a dam inundation area as identified in the City of Temecula General Plan Final Environmental
impact Report. Impacts can be mitigated by utilizing existing emergency response systems and by assuring that these systems
continue to maintain adequate service provision as the City develops.
After mitigation measures are implemented the impacts associated with this project with respect to the threat of flooding are
considered to be insignificant.

4.c.
The project may have a potentially signiticant effect on discharges into surface waters and alterafion of surface water quality. Pdor to issuance
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) permit from the State Water Resources Control Board. No grading shall be permitted until an NPDES Notice of
intent has been tiled or the project is shown to be exempt. By complying with the NPDES requirements, any potential impacts can be
mitigated to a level less than signiticant. No signiticant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
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 impact currents, or to the
course or direction of water movements. Additional surface runoff will occur because previously permeable grouqd 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 will be incremental but will not be considered significant. No signiticant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
4.f,g,hThe project will have a less than significant change in the quantity and quality of ground waters and alteration in the direction of the flow of
groundwater, either through direct additions or withdrawals, or through interception of an aquifer by cuts or excavations or through substantial
loss of groundwater 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. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will not result in a substantjal reduction in the amount of groundwater water otherwise available for public water supplies.
According to information contained in the Final Environmental Impact Report for the City of Temecula General Ran, "Rancho California Water
District indicate that they can accommodate additional water demands." Water service currently exists in the immediate proximity to the
project and is provided by Rancho California Water District (RCWD). No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.

Comments:
The project will not violate any air quality standards or contribute to an existing or projected air quality violation and consequently have a less
than significant impact. The project consists of the construction and operation of a moving, storage and warehousing business within a 14,560
square foot building. This is below the threshold for potentially significant air quality impact established by South Coast Air Quality
Management District (Page 6-11, Table 6-2 of the South Coast Air Quality Management CEQA Air Quality Handbook). The project will have a
less than significant impact with respect to air quality standards.
5.b.
The project may temporarily expose sensitive receptors to pollutants during grading and construction. There are no significant pollutants in
proximity to the project nor is it anticipated that the project will generate pollutants. Therefore the project will have a less than signiticant

Comments:
lO.a.
The proposal will result in a less than significant increase to existing noise levels. The site is currently vacant and
development of the land logically will result in increases 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 or less than the existing
industrial uses in the immediate area. No 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 dudng the developmentJconstruction phase (short ran). Construction
machinery 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 soume 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. A less than significant impact is anticipated as

The project will have a less than significant impact upon, or result in a need for new or altered fire or police protection. This
project will incrementally increase the need for fire and police protection; however, it will contribute its fair share to the
maintenance of service provision from these entities. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will not have an impact upon, or result in a need for new or altered school facilities. The project will not cause
significant numbers of people to relocate within or to the City of Temecula, therefore, will not result in a need for new or altered
school facilities. No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will have a less than significant impact for the maintenance of public facilities, including roads. The impacts to current
and future needs for maintenance of roads as a result of development of the site will be incremental, however, they will not be
considered significant. The Gasoline Tax is sufficient to cover any of the proposed expenses.

The project will not result in a need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to power or natural gas. These systems are
currently being delivered in proximity to the site. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will not result in a need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to communication systems (reference response No.
12.a.). No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will not result in the need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to local or regional water treatment or distribution
facilities. While the project will have an incremental impact upon existing systems, the Final Environmental impact Report (FEIR) for the City's
General Plan states: "both EMWD and RCWD have indicated an ability to supply as much water as is required in their services areas (p. 39)"
No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will not result in a need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to sanitary sewer systems or septic tanks. The FEIR
states: "implementation of the proposed General Plan would not significantly impact wastewater services (p. 40)? Since the project is
consistent with the Citys General Plan, no significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. There are no septic tanks on site or
proximate to the site. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The proposal will result in a less than significant need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to storm water drainage. The
project will need to provide some additional on-site drainage systems. The drainage system will be required as a condition of approval for the
project and will tie into the existing system. A less than significant impact is anticipated as a result of this project.
The proposal will not result in a need for new systems or substantial alterafions to solid waste disposal systems. Any potential impacts from
solid waste created by this development can be mitigated through participation in any Sourca Reduction and Recycling Programs. which are
implemented by the City, No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project,
The project will not result in a need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to local or regional water supplies. Reference
response 12.c. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.

13.a.
The project will not have an impact on a scenic vista or scenic highway. The project is not located in an area where there is a
scenic vista. Further, the City does not have any designated scenic highways. No significant impacts am anticipated as a result
of this project.
13.b.
The project will not have a demonstrable negative aesthetic effect. The site is in an area of existing industrial uses. The design
review process of the proposed development has mitigated the potential for significant visual impacts to the adjacent
developments through compliance with the City's Design Guidelines for industrial development and the use of materials, colors,
and landscaping that are compatible neighboring development. A less than significant impact is anticipated as a result of this
project.
13.c. The project could have a potentially significant impact from light and glare. The project will produce and result in additional
lightJglare, as do all developments of this nature. Because all light and glare has the potential to impact the Mount Palomar
Observato~ the project will be conditioned to be consistent with Ordinance No. 655 (Ordinance Regulating Light Pollution).
Therefore, after mitigation no significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.

16. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE.
Issues and Supporting Information Sources
16.a. 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 community, reduce the number or
restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal
or eliminate important examples of the major periods of
California history or prehistory?
16.b. Does the project have the potential to achieve short-term,
to the disadvantage of long-term, environmental goals?
16.c. Does the project have impacts that area individually
limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively
considerable" means that the incremental effects of a
project are considerable when viewed in connection with
the effects of past projects, the effects of other current
projects, and the effects of probable future projects).
16.d. Does the project have environmental effects which will
cause substantial adverse effects on human beings,
either directly or indirectly?

Planning Application No. PA95-0079 (Tentative Parcel Map No. 28257)
Prepared By: Carole K. Donahoe, AICP, Project Planner
RECOMMENDATION:
The Community Development Department - Planning Division Staff
recommends the Planning Commission:
ADOPT Resolution No. 98- , denying Planning Application
No. PA95-0079 based upon the Analysis and Findings
contained in the Staff Report
APPLICATION INFORMATION
APPLICANT:
William and Michael Peruchetti
REPRESENTATIVE:
Michael L. Benesh
PROPOSAL:
To subdivide approximately 2.9 acres into four (4) residential lots
LOCATION:
South side of Pauba Road, between La Primavera Street and
Showalter Road
STATUS
This case was brought before the Planning Commission on September 2, 1998 with a
recommendation for denial by staff. The applicant was granted a continuance to October 7, 1998
to give him time to complete requirements necessary to proceed with the processing of the map.
Some progress was made but not all issues were addressed. Two other requests for continuance
were granted, to November 4, 1998 and December 2, 1998. The applicant was informed that staff
would not support any further continuances beyond December2, 1998. Howeverstaff received
no further information from the applicant.
Staff refers the Commission to the Staff Report of September 2, 1998 which is attached.
Percolation tests were done at the site on September 15, 1998. Staff received a clearance letter
from the Department of Environmental Health dated September 22, 1998. With regards to cultural
resources, the applicant provided evidence of prior grading and the import of fill material to the
site. Staff determined that mitigation could be achieved by conditioning the applicant to provide
a paleontologist on site for grading of Parcels 1 and 3 due to the amount of cut anticipated on these
tots. The balance of the issues as outlined in the staff report of September 2, 1998 remain areas
of concern since they have not been fully addressed. These issues include: site constraints,
drainage, and access.
Staff received an additional letter in opposition, dated November 4, 1998 which is attached.

SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS
Staff feels that areas of concern regarding the project have been identified and discussed at length
with the applicant. Staff continues to feel that the project design is unworkable, does not meet
Code requirements nor mitigates environmental impacts. In discussions with both the applicant
and his engineer on August 18, 1998, no alternative designs or access options are available.
Therefore, staff recommends that the Planning Commission deny the project.
FINDINGS
The proposed land division is consistent with the General Plan. The General Plan
designation calls for Low Density Residential, 0.5 to 2 dwelling units per acre maximum.
The proposed four lot subdivision on 2.85 acres complies with this density designation.
The design or improvement of the proposed land division is inconsistent with the General
Plan. The site is identified as being within the Chaparral Area which requires special
development considerations and limits the encroachment of grading, construction or surface
alteration into the natural slopes, drainage courses and sensitive biological resources in this
area. The project is inconsistent with the General Plan because careful siting of building
pads, driveways, septic and leach fields has not been accomplished; little contour grading
has been designed; and a 130-foot long crib wall in clear view from Pauba Road is
proposed.
The site of the proposed land division is not physically suitable for the type of development.
The site has steep slopes along Pauba Road as well as in the interior of the property. Flat
areas are limited to proposed Parcels 4 and 2 where structures already exist. The site is
not physically suitable because the proposed development and access will require
encroachment into the natural slopes and drainage courses.
The site of the proposed land division is not physically suitable for the proposed density of
the development. Flat areas are limited to proposed Parcels 4 and 2 where structures
already exist. The site is not physically suitable because the proposed development and
access will require encroachment into the natural slopes and drainage courses.
The design of the proposed land division or proposed improvements are likely to cause
substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or
their habitat. The design of the proposed land division requires encroachment into natural
slopes and grading of natural vegetation for pad sites and access.
The design of the proposed land division or the type of improvements are likely to cause
serious public health problems. The Fire Department concerns regarding access for
emergency vehicles have not been adequately addressed. The proposed project may
cause serious hazards should there be inadequate access for emergency vehicles.
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 land division.

That the above recitations are true and correct and are hereby incorporated
Section 2. Findings. That the Temecula Planning Commission, in denying Planning
Application No. PA95-0079, hereby makes the following findings as required in Section 7.1 of
County Ordinance No. 480:
1. The proposed land division is consistent with the General Plan. The General Plan
designation calls for Low Density Residential, 0.5 to 2 dwelling units per acre maximum. The
proposed four lot subdivision on 2.85 acres complies with this density designation.
2. The design or improvement of the proposed land division is inconsistent with the General
Plan. The site is identified as being within the Chaparral Area which requires special development
considerations and limits the encroachment of grading, construction or surface alteration into the
natural slopes, drainage courses and sensitive biological resources in this area. The project is

3. The site of the proposed land division is not physically suitable for the type of development.
The site has steep slopes along Pauba Road as well as in the interior of the property. Flat areas
are limited to proposed Parcels 4 and 2 where structures already exist. The site is not physically
suitable because the proposed development and access will require encroachment into the natural
slopes, drainage courses and sensitive biological resources.
4. The site of the proposed land division is not physically suitable for the proposed density of
the development. Flat areas are limited to proposed Parcels 4 and 2 where structures already
exist. The site is not physically suitable because the proposed development and access will require
encroachment into the natural slopes, drainage courses and sensitive biological resources
5. The design of the proposed land division or proposed improvements are likely to cause
substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their
habitat. The design of the proposed land division requires encroachment into natural slopes and
grading of natural vegetation, for pad sites and access.
6. The design of the proposed land division or the type of improvements are likely to cause
serious public health problems. The Fire Department concerns regarding access for emergency
vehicles has not been adequately addressed. The proposed project may cause serious hazards
should there be inadequate access for emergency vehicles.
7. 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 land division.

BACKGROUND
The subject site has been under consideration for development for several years. Originally,
Tentative Tract Map No. 26944 was submitted on Apdl 12, 1991, but was eventually withdrawn on
September 14, 1993, after staff had requested a reconfiguration of lot design and access. On
August 16, 1995, Tentative Parcel Map No. 28257 was submitted and a Development Review
Committee comment letter was sent September 26, 1995. On October 25, 1995, the applicant
requested a postponement of activity on the project, and no further response was received.
In an attempt to formally close the case file, staff contacted the applicant in December of 1997.
On January 28, 1998 Mr. Peruchetti requested he be allowed to reactivate the map. He was given
until February 27, 1998 to submit a rodesigned map, which was ultimately received on March 13,
1998. A second Development Review Commiftee meeting was held on April 2, 1998, and a
comment letter sent April 21, 1998, giving the applicant 30 days to address ongoing concerns with
the project design. The applicant requested additional time to work on the redesign, and a revised
map was finally submitted on July 15, 1998. Staff sent a comment letter dated August 5, 1998,
informing the applicant and his engineer that the revised map still failed to address the City's many
areas of concern.
After several review cycles with the applicant, staff concluded that a workable design acceptable
to the applicant and the City could not be developed for the site. Therefore, the applicant was
notified that the case would be noticed for public hearing before the Planning Commission with a
recommendation for denial from staff.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION & ANALYSIS
Site Constraints
The subject site lies within the Chaparral Special Studies Area, an area identified within the City's
General Plan as requiring special development considerations to assure that development does
not exceed the carrying capacity of the area, while still providing appropriate transitions of density.
The Chaparral Area is characterized by moderately sloped hillsides above dry washbeds, with
segmented lot patterns of varying sizes. The General Plan limits the encroachment of grading,
construction or surface alteration into the natural slopes, drainage courses and sensitive biological
resources in this area. Therefore, careful siting of building pads, driveways, septic and leach fields
are required on the tentative map. Contour grading is encouraged; however, retaining walls are
discouraged, particularly in public view.
The applicant has continued to propose a four-lot division of the property, with pad locations (when
noted) that require extensive grading.

Drainage
The Public Works Department has indicated concerns regarding drainage, and requested a
Drainage Study in order to mitigate these concerns. The preliminary Drainage Study received July
15, 1998 shows drainage outletting through the property to the south. No assurances have been
provided that a drainage easement from the adjacent property owner is feasible.
Environmental Health
The Riverside County Department of Environmental Health was unable to make recommendations
regarding this project without the applicant submitting a Soils Percolation Test and other
information, This applicant has not done this. No clearance from Environmental Health has been
received.
Cultural Resources
Staff requested clearance be obtained from the University of Califomia Eastem Information Center
regarding the potential for cultural resources on the property. The applicant has not provided the
information or fees necessary to obtain this clearance.
Code Violations
During staffs site visit several code violations were evident on the property, including use of the
workshop building as a residence, abandoned vehicles, trash, structures built without permits and
possible health hazards. Code Enforcement staff ope.ned a violation case file on the property and
are taking steps to rectify these violations.
Access and Circulation
The most recent maps propose a singular roadway from Pauba Road. This proposed pdvate cul-
de-sac is shown with varying grades, ranging from the15% maximum allowed to 2%. Individual
residential driveways from the pdvate cul-de-sac are also shown ranging in grade from 6% to 15%.
The Fire Department has indicated concerns about ensudng emergency vehicle access both from
Pauba Road onto the private cul-de-sac, and through the grade transitions along the length of the
cul-de-sac and through the driveways to the individual residences. In order to obtain a 32-foot wide
access roadway from Pauba Road, the applicant has designed a 130-foot long crib wall, visible
from Pauba heading east, The cdb wall appears to be approximately 30 feet in height, The
applicant has not provided specific information that staff had previously requested regarding grade
transitions and the crib wall.
Maps proposed in 1995 had shown a proposed 20-foot access easement from Estero Street to the
south. However, the applicant was unable to verify the existence of this easement. In 1995, staff
received correspondence from China Sea Development Corporation,- the adjacent owner to the
south, that refutes the existence of the proposed easement, and recommends measures to resolve
issues and reach settlement on the granting of an easement. Also, staff has strongly suggested
working with adjacent property owners to the east, west or South, to obtain other access options,
however, the engineer has indicated that all these alternatives were unsuccessful.

SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS
Staff feels that areas of concern regarding the project have been identified and discussed at length
with the applicant. Staff continues to feel that the project design is unworkable, does not meet
Code requirements nor mitigates environmental impacts. In discussions with both the applicant
and his engineer on August 18, 1998, no alternative designs or access options are available.
Therefore, staff recommends that the Planning Commission deny the project.
FINDINGS
The proposed land division is consistent with the General Plan. The General Plan
designation calls for Low Density Residential, 0.5 to 2 dwelling units per acre maximum.
The proposed four lot subdivision on 2.85 acres complies with this density designation.
The design or improvement of the proposed land division is inconsistent with the General
Plan. The site is identified as being within the Chaparral Area which requires special
development considerations and limits the encroachment of grading, construction or surface
alteration into the natural slopes, drainage courses and sensitive biological resources in this
area. The project is inconsistent with the General Plan because careful siting of building
pads, driveways, septic and leach fields has not been accomplished; little contour grading
has been designed; and a 130-foot long cdb wall in clear view from Pauba Road is
proposed.
The site of the proposed land division is not physically suitable for the type of development.
The site has steep slopes along Pauba Road as well as in the intedor of the properb/. Fiat
areas are limited to proposed Parcels 4 and 2 where structures already exist. The site is
not physically suitable because the proposed development and access will require
encroachment into the natural slopes, drainage courses and sensitive biological resources.
The site of the proposed land division is not physically suitable for the proposed density of
the development. Flat areas are limited to proposed Parcels 4 and 2 where structures
already exist. The site is not physically suitable because the proposed development and
access will require encroachment into the natural slopes, drainage courses and sensitive
biological resources.
The design of the proposed land division or proposed improvements are likely to cause
substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or
their habitat. The design of the proposed land division requires encroachment into natural
slopes and grading of natural vegetation for pad sites and access.
,
The design of the proposed land division or the type of improvements are likely to cause
serious public health problems. The Fire Department concerns regarding access for
emergency vehicles have not been adequately addressed. The proposed project may
cause serious hazards should there be inadequate access for emergency vehicles.
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 land division.

Development Review Committee ('DRC) comments for Planning Application
No. PA95-0079
Dear Mr. Benesh:
On September 21, 1995, City staff held a Development Review Committee (DRC) meeting to
discuss the above referenced project with you and your clients. At that meeting, staff
presented several issues that needed to be addressed to consider the project complete and
continue the processing of the project. However, the State mandated 30-day review period to
determine a project complete has expired. Thus, by default, the project is now considered
complete and case processing shall continue.
While the project is considered complete, the project is inconsistent with the General Plan
relative to parcel size and design and Ordinance No. 460 relative to adequate access.
Because of these inconsistencies, it is staffs recommendation that the project, in its' current
form, be denied.
As an alternative to project denial, the applicant may wish to withdraw their application and
submit a new application that addresses the issues raised at the DRC meeting. This would
restart the case processing time frames. Should you and your client choose to withdraw and
submit a new application, the application fees for the existing project would be transferred to
the new application. Should the applicant choose solely to withdraw the application, a
portion of the application fees would be eligible for refund.
Should the applicant choose to submit a new application, the foliowing items shall be
addressed:
R:\PLANNI~G~79pA95.DRC 9/26/95 Ires
Fire Department
Ordinance No. 460 requires that public access is provided from each parcel of a land
division to a road the is maintained for public use (Sect. 3.10.A) This requirement
can be waived if "No parcel under one acre in size is created..." (Section 3. 1q.B).
The current provision to provide access to two newly cre~ted parcels under one acre
in size will not be permitted per City Ordinance. Therefore, the project will be
requixed to be redesigned.
Planning Department

Dear Mr. Peruchetti:
Staff has reviewed the most recent revised submittal from your engineer Michael Benesh for the
above-referenced project received July 15, 1998. We continue to find that the areas of concern
discussed with you at the second Development Review Committee Meeting of April 2, I998, and
summarized in my Comment letter to you dated April 21, 1998, have not been addressed. I am
attaching a copy of the Comment letter for your reference.
Because after several review cycles we still do not have a workable design that addresses all areas
of concern, staff will schedule this case for the September 2, 1998 Planning Commission heating,
and at this time, will be recommending denial.

Re: Tentative Parcel Map No. 28257
Dear Sir or Madam,
This letter shall serve to notify the City planners that Larry
Markham is the engineer of record for China Sea Development
Corporation (CSDC). We are the owners of record of the Estero
Street development that is adjacent to and directly south of
T.P.M. No. 28257, and this letter shall serve as a "Memorandum
for Record"
We wish that you would consider the,following points in regard
to granting the aforementioned subd'ivision.
That, the Estero Street development was designed and
constructed to the City codes and standards for: say
$ ]30,000.00 servicing seven (7) lots of ]/2 acres each.
That, our engineer, Larry Markham and the City attorney
have been working on a reimbursement agreement for CSDC
for the past three years, with negative results to date.
The minutes of the planning commission mention a re-
imbursement agreement would be executed between the City
and CSDC, to ensure CSDC would be repaid for its invest-
ment before building permits would be approved by the
City. A draft reimbursement agreement has been drawn up
by the City attorney and our engineer, Larry Markham,but
not executed.
3. That, CSDC has not approved or granted an easement to any
person or persons.
That, before CSDC shall consider granting or approving
an easement across its proOerty, the City has to sotue
the following adverse, damaging problems and conditlons:
(2)
That, T.P.M. NO. 28257 will be subject to the
same strict City development codes, standards,
and expenses that were enforced on CSDC for the
Estero Street development.
That, the City recognize there are seven (7)
expensive custom homes approved and constructed
adjacent to or nearby T.P.M. No. 28257, and the
City, in its wisdom, should therefore enforce the
same superior development and construction codes
and standards now in place, to protect these home-
Owners.
That, sub-standard development and building codes
should be permitted or apprcved, that would
depreciate the value of the expensive custom homes
now in place.
That, the City, its engineers and planners should
optimize the Estero Street design, and control the
area run-off of water that has been tunneled and
diverted from its original natural water course
and sheeting flow to a concentrated drainage system
by the owners of T.P.M. No. 28257. The run-off is
now being dumped at one drainage point on CSDC's
recorded lot, Parcel 2 (Lot "B") of Parcel Map
No. 24633. Each rainy season, this condition causes
damage and expense to CSDC, plus it has depreciated
the value of the Parcel 2 lot by perhaps as much
as 50%. The above drainage problem was created by
the owners of T.P.M. No. 28257 withou~ the approval
or consent of CSDC.
That,before CSDC will consider approving and granting an
easement across CSDC recorded lot- Parcel 2 {Lot"A") of
Parcel Map No. 24633 to accomodate two homeowners, the
following must be resolved and a settlement reached before
T.P.M. No. 28257 is approved by the City:
That,the water run-off and damage problems and
liabilities be permanently cured, without further
expense to CSDC.
That,the design of T.P.M. No. 28257 shall be
approved by the City, CSDC, and other affected
owners, in advance.
c. That,the owners of T.P.M. No. 28257 and the other
owner, or the City shall:

the approval of T.P.M. No. 28257 depreciates and/
or damages the home at 30540 or its lot, the
damage shall be assessed and CSDC compensated
for the loss of value, depreciation and damage.
d. That,CSDC, and the neighbors shall, in advance,
be compensated by the owners of T.P.M. No.28257,
and the other owners, and/or the City, for the
approval and granting of an easement across CSDC

6. That, CSDC is represented by our engineer, Larry Markham,
and our representative in Temecula, Dan Naron, (676-6382).
With best wishes, we trust that the City,in its wisdom,shall
see fit to protect the best interest of CSDC and it's neighbors,
who have invested heavily in the Estero Street development in
accordance with the City codes and standards, and we remain

Dear Board Members,
By
Refer to Planning Application No. PA95-0079, the Peruchetti proposal to subdivide 2.85 acres into four
residential parcels.
My wife and I own three properties in the immediate area (at Windsor Crest) of the proposed subdivision. Two
of our properties, 30498 Colina Verde, our home, and 30490 Colina Verde, a rental, back to the western edge of
the Peruchetti property. Naturally, we are very concerned over the impact such a proposal would have on
property value and the general welfare and serenity of our well-established community.
Appreciating the Peruchetti's desire to take advantage of the improving real estate market in Temecula, we feel
the following points are worthy of serious consideration as being detrimental to the surrounding community
should the current proposal be approved:
I ) Septic tanks leaching downhill from the proposed residences would be a definite health hazard to the
homes below. Having had a hole dug for a pool at my residence at 30498 Colina Verde, I am aware of an
underground stream from Peruchetti's property running downhill and through my backyard. Fluids leaching fi'om
a septic tank would follow the same route.
2) Peruchetti's track record of a partially completed house under construction for at least 3 years without
a City of Temecula permit leaves great doubt as to the quality of any building project they would undertake.
3)-It does not appear that the proposed plan allows adequate room for access by firefighting equipment.
An unreachable housefire in the proposed subdivision would hazard homes in the immediate area.
4) Should the Pemcherti's opt to continue using their present access, a narrow dirt driveway on the west
edge of the former Paine property, that too would be inadequate for the passage of firefighting equipment.
Having viewed the proposal at City Hall, it is noted that the current Peruchetti residence on the east side of their
property is not shown. It is also noted that a great amount of dirt movement will be required to prepare the
property for building, causing unknown changes in drainage condition in the area.
My wife and I recommend denial of the proposed subdivision.

Re: Planning Application No. PA95-0079/Tentative Tract No. 28257
William & Michael Peruchetti (Applicant)
Dear Members of the Plamung Comrmssion:
This letter is in response to the Public Heanng Notice we received last week regarding the above referenced
application.
We have occupied the properly listed as "Edmeier" APN 945-070-015 on the proposed map since
December of 1995.
We have some concems regarding the subdivision of the proposed property:
1. Past history of non-compliance, i.e., below-code structures built on present property which contain
trash, cars, oldappliances, and various other junk.
2. Grading issues have not been clarified. It doesn't appear that the plans concur with the General Plan
for the Chaparral Area, i.e., alteration of natural slopes, drainage courses, etc.
3. Proposed crib wall of 30 feet high and 130 feet long does not concur with General Plan for the area.
We have concerns about stability, ram damage, etc. Aesthetically an eye sore as well.
4. The four parcels appear to be an odd configuration with only two real usable parcels which currently
have below-code structures on them. Four seems to be too many for this small area~
5. We question the properly owners intentions for this project. What guarantee do we have that they
would actually cany through with their proposed plan?
Based on these issues, we are in full support of the Planning Comrmssion to deny this proposal.
Sincerely,
Gordon Skeoch

Re: Planning Application # PA95-0079 (Tentative Parcel Map No. 28257)
Location: South side Pauba Road, between La Primeavera Street and Showalter Road
We are writing as homeowners whose property borders the east side of this proposed
project. We are strongly opposed to this project. Our objection is related to the near
vertical cut for the placement of a 130 foot long and 30 to 40 foot high crib wall on the
edge of our property. This outrageous proposal would be:
I ) extremely dangerous for our childrens safety
2) an enormous devaluations to our home value
3) an unsightly deep vertical cut through the existing natural hillside
We are also concerned about the numerous building and safety code violations that has
gone on for many years, including buildings constructed without permits. Already the
applicant has made an 8 to 10 foot vertical cut on the edge of our property, resulting in a
safety hazard and heavy soil erosion of our property. Please do not allow such a proposal
causing such damage to our property and our community.
Sincerely,
Steve and Linda Nelson

Sir,
My name is Denny Gosser and my wife's name is Sue. We live at 30680
Santiago Road, Temecula, CA 92592. We would like to go on record as being
opposed to the splitting of the 2.81acre lot as described in planning application
No. PA95-0079. We are opposed for the following reasons.
· CC&R's that we received for this area require that any splitting of property
must be approved by a committee located at P.O. Box 2095, Hemet, CA
92343. ( Doc # 7732 refers to Book 81, Pages 83 & 84) 8/12/74
· By allowing more homes to be built on smaller lots, it will create more noise
and dust pollution, traffic problems, and increase the existing erosion
problems on Santiago Road.
· De -valuation of existing homes in the area. With the smaller homes on
smaller lots it will provide lower value for "Comps" in this area thus de-
valuation of our properties which are existing.
· Water, electric, gas, telephone, cable TV and fire protection were installed
along Pauba Road several years ago. When they were designed the intent
was for 2.5 to 5 acre lots to be located in this area. By splitting the lots up this
will require at least extra funds to do a feasibility study to see if the existing
system is capable of sustaining all of the future home sites. It could require
funds to up grade existing facilities for the city.
· This area is set up as an equestrian area with the existing homeowners.
What assurance do we have that if smaller parcels are allowed in the area
that our riding trails and love for horses won't come under attack from the new
homeowners, and will they try to force us to give up the reason we moved
here in the first place. We have been through two battles with the city of
Huntington Beach involving homeowners moving horses out, and as a
property owner here I will fight to keep our right to have homes at home.
As smaller developments emerge they seem to ban together to get the big
guy who has been there for a while because there are more of them with a
common interest, thus being able to remove what was there before them.
· What environmental impact studies have been done and how are the
endanger species being protected?
If you have any questions I can be contacted at 909-676-5854. We have
not spoken to any of the other homeowners except Mrs. G. Moore at 30600
Santiago Road, and she agrees with us. Please keep me informed of any
building plans in this area.

Denn~'u~e Gosser

BACKGROUND
The purpose of this proposal is to develop site-specific land use standards for a unique commercial
situation along Pala Road south of Murrieta Creek. This item was originally noticed and heard at
the December 15, 1997 Planning Commission headrig. At that time the Commission requested that
staff review the matter further. Staff had prepared additional information and an alternative
proposal for the January 5, 1998 Planning Commission meeting. This item was subsequently
continued at the January 26, 1998, February 2, 1998, and March 2, 1998 Planning Commission
hearings. Copies of the minutes from the vadous Commission meetings am included in Attachment
No. 3. Staff currently believes that the formerly unresolved right-of-way issues can now be
addressed during the planning phase of development.
ANALYSIS
Land Uses
Based upon input received from the Commission and community, staff has developed a Planned
Development Overlay for these properties that is substantially based on the current neighborhood
commercial zoning designation. However, staff has tded to tailor this list of permitted and
conditionally permitted uses to not only provide adequate economic opportunities for the property
owners, but also to minimize noise and traffic impacts on the surrounding community. The
economic use of much of this area is significantly impacted by the existing easements the cross
through some of the area.
The basic land use regulations take 62 of 68 permitted and conditionally permitted uses from the
Neighborhood Commercial zone and combine them with 15 to 20 other land uses that were taken
from the Service Commercial zone. Most of these additional uses are business that rely on outdoor
storage as part of their operation. In addition, staff is also recommending several rural supporting
commercial uses that are compatible with this location. A supplemental comparison of the various
permitted uses for the Neighborhood Commercial, Service Commercial, and the proposed Pala
Road PDO is contained in Attachment No. 4.
Development Standards
Additionally, the proposed PDO-1 also contains supplemental development standards that would
require screening and landscaping along Pala Road and next to Temecula Creek and next to the
adjacent residences. These supplemental requirements would augment the basic provisions of the
Neighborhood Commercial zoning distdct. All requirements not specifically addressed in the
planned development overlay would automatically revert to the Development Code and/or citywide
Design Guidelines. A copy of the proposed overlay zoning is contained in Attachment No. 2.
\\TEMEC_FS201 \DATA\DEPTS\PLANNING\STAFFRPT\237PA97.PC6.doC
2
Staffs recommends that a single Planned Development Overlay (PDO) District be created for all
four parcels. Chapter 17.22 of the Development Code states that the purpose of this oveday is to
permit creative mixtures of uses in smaller areas where a specific plan or village center overlay is
not appropriate. It allows for flexibility in the regulations and design standards, and also allows a
mixture of uses not normally permitted by conventional City zoning. This proposal wou!d be to
create Planned Development Overlay District No. 1 (PDO-1).
Traffic
In an effort to provide the Commission with a estimate of the possible future traffic impacts from
this proposal, staff has undertaken an preliminary analysis of the traffic generated by these general
plan land uses. The analysis uses the traffic generation rates and standard lot coverages that were
used in the original traffic analysis for the General Plan and indicated that this proposal would not
result in a significant increase in the number of vehicle tdps in to and out of this area. The list of
assumptions for this evaluation is contained in Attachment No. 6.
The City Traffic Engineer has evaluated this methodology and is satisfied that, for a General Plan
level analysis, it is reasonable and technically defensible. As indicated, there should be very little
difference between the current General Plan land use designation and the proposed Planned
Development Overlay district being proposed for this area. Given the current site constraints and
probable development pattern, the actual number of trips should be less than these preliminary
estimates indicate.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
An initial environmental study was performed for this project and determined that the proposal
could potentially affect geology, water, transportation/circulation, aesthetic and cultural resources.
The study was prepared only for the general plan amendment and zone change because no
detailed development proposals have been submitted to the City. The Initial Study was originally
circulated between November 26, 1997 and December 15, 1997 and no comments were received.
Any mitigation measures identified in the initial study document will be implemented when detailed
development proposals are submitted. A copy of the Initial Environmental Study is contained in
Attachment No. 5

SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS
Staff has evaluated a number of options and variations to try to address the many site constraints.
Based upon the Commission's previous comments, staff feels that the proposed Planned
Development Overlay district provides the appropriate flexibility and design standards ne~:essary
to allow reasonable development in a manner compatible with the surrounding area.
FINDINGS
Planning Application No. PA97-0237 (General Plan Amendment and Change of Zone) as
proposed is compatible with the health, safety and welfare of the community.
The project is compatible with existing and surrounding uses. The site is already zoned for
commercial uses and is already being partially used for commercial purposes.
The proposed project will not have an adverse effect on the community because it remains
consistent with the goals and policies of the adopted General Plan.

17.22.100 Title
Sections 17.22.100 through 17.22.108 shall be known as "PDO-1" (Pala Road Planned Development
Overlay District).
17.22.102 Purpose and intent
The Pala Road Planned Development Overlay District (PDO-1) is intended to provide
regulations for the safe and efficient operation, and creative design of a unique commercial area
within the city. The area is significantly constrained with easements, flood plains, potential fault
zones, and adjacent residential development. This special overlay zoning district regulation is
intended to permit a range of neighborhood convenience uses, with selected outdoor storage and
other appropriate rural serving commercial uses. Supplemental performance standards have also
been provided to ensure compatibility with the adjacent neighborhoods and to protect adjoining uses
from excessive noise, odor, smoke, toxic materials, and other potentially objectionable impacts. It
is the intent of the City to use these special regulations to supplement the regulations of land uses
and development already existing within the adopted Development Code.
17.22.104 Relationship with the Development Code and Citywide Design Guidelines
A. The list of permitted, conditionally permitted, and prohibited uses for the Pala Road
Planned Development Ove~ay District is contained in Table 17.22.106.
B. Except as modified by the provisions of Section 17.22.108, the following rules and
regulations shall apply to all planning applications in this area.
1. The development standards in the Development Code that would apply to any
development within a Neighborhood Commercial zoning district that are in effect at the time an
application is deemed complete.
2. The citywide Design Guidelines that are in effect at the time an application
is deemed complete.
3. The approval requirements contained in the Development Code that are in
effect at the time an application is deemed complete.
4. Any other relevant rule, regulation or standard that is in effect at the time an
application is deemed complete.
17.22.106 Use Regulations
The list of permitted land uses for the Pala Road Planned Development Overlay district is
contained in Table 17.22.106. Where indicated with a letter "P" the use shall be a permitted use.
A letter "C" indicates the use shall be conditionally permitted subject to the approval of a
conditional use permit. Where indicated with a "-", the use is prohibited within the zone.

RECOMMENDATION
It was recommended by staff that the Planning Commission approve the request.
Because of the close proximity of his residence to the subject site (Agenda Item No. 6) and
because he is a consultant for the City with regard to the Western Bypass Corridor (Agenda
Item No. 7), Commissioner Soltysiak advised that he would be abstaining with regard to Agenda
Item Nos. 6 and 7. He wished everyone a Happy Holiday Season and departed the meeting at
this time.
Senior Planner Hogan reviewed the staff report (as per agenda material), advising that the
Planning Commission
December 15, 1997
storage facility has been eliminated and that if this request were approved, the existing towing
yard would be considered a legal non-conforming use.
Planning Manager Ubnoske advised that the City does not have any time constraints with
regard to non-conforming uses, noting that the only mechanism to conform a non-cOnforming
use would be if the applicant of such a use would be desirous of making a change to the
property; thereby, the property would have to adhere to the existing standards of the
Development Code.
Mrs. Sharon Miller, 44618 Pala Road, owner of the existing mini-storage facility since June
1983, informed the Commissioners that she and her husband had received a life-time
Conditional Use Permit from the County; that a permit was obtained in 1986 with regard to the
rental trucks; that a portion of Parcel 2 was leased, with the permission of the County, to
accommodate the truck rental business; and that no homes had been constructed in this area
in 1983 when the business was started. Because of the impact this rezoning would have on
her property, Mrs. Miller spoke in opposition to this zone change and requested that her
property be zoned to accurately reflect the current use -- Service Commercial.
Because of the accumulation of dirt and because of the negative aesthetic appearance,
Ms. Stacy Ketter, 45352 Tournament Lane, expressed concern and questioned the legality of
the parked moving trucks on Parcel No. 1. With regard to Parcel No. 1, it was noted by staff
that this parcel is zoned Office Professional and, therefore, the parking of moving trucks on this
lot would be illegal.
Mr. Larry Markham, representing the owner of Parcel No. 4 (currently zoned neighborhood
commercial), relayed the owner's support of this zone change and suggested that Mrs. Miller's
property be rezi~ned, making it consistent with the existing use.
Commenting on concerns expressed by neighboring residents with regard to traffic on Pala
Road, staff elaborated on the proposal to redesignate the front portion of three of the four
parcels as Neighborhood Commercial (noting that the fourth parcel is already zoned
Neighborhood Commercial) and to redesignate the rear portion of all four parcels as Service
Commercial.
For aesthetic purposes, Vice Chairwoman Slaven relayed her support with the above-mentioned
proposal.
Expressing a concern with regard to the level of traffic on Pala Road, Commissioner Guerriero
requested that this matter be continued to a future meeting so that the Commission may
obtain additional information with regard to future traffic impacts.
For Commissioner Guerriero, Senior Planner Hogan commented on the Pala Road extension and
its impact on Parcel No. 1.

Specificity of Environmental Review:
The project is a general plan amendment and zone change
and no detailed development proposals have been submitted
to the City, no pwject-level evaluation of the potential
environmental impacts is possible. Section 15146 of the
CEQA Guidelines states that the specificity and detail of
environmental analysis should be similar to the detail end
specificity of the project Since the project is a general plen
amendment/zone chenge within commercial land use
designations of the general plan, only a general plan level of
evaluation is possible. However, in an effort to provide as
much information as possible, some additional evaluation
has been provided. Any mitigation measures identified in
this document will be implemented when detailed
development proposals are available.
ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS POTENTIALLY AFFECTED:
The environmental factors checked below would be potentially affected by this project, revolving at least one
impact that is a "Potentially Significant Impact" as indicated by the checklist on the following pages.

Mandatory Findings of Significance
DETERMINATION
On the basis of this imtial evaluation:
[]
I find that the proposed project COULD NOT have a significant on the environment, end a NEGATIVE
DECLARATION will be prepared.
I find that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, there will
not be a signlficent effect in this case because the mitigation measures described on en attached sheet
have been added to the project. A NEGATIVE DECLARATION will be propared.
[]
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significant effect on the environment, and an
ENVIRONlvlENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required.
[]
I find that the proposed project MAY have a significent effect(s) on the environment, but at least one
effect 1 ) has been adequately enalyzed in en earlier document pursuent to applicable legal standards,
and 2) has been addressed by imtigatien ~ based on the earlier enalysis as described on attached
sheets, fithe effect is a "potentially significent impact" or "potentially significent unless mitigated."
An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT is required, but it must enalyze only the effects that
remain to be addressed.

DISCUSSION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
Land Use and Pl~ing
la, c
The project is a general plan amendment and zone change from existing commercial land use designstioas.
The environmental impact of the proposed general plan designation and proposed zoning is expected to be less
than significant because Neighborhood Commercial zoning already covers a portion of the site, and is
proposed to extend along Pala Road only, up to approximately 150 feet from the south property line into the
site. Neighborhood Commercial uses already exist on two parcels, and extending such uses along Pala Road
totheothertwoparcelswouldhavelessthansigni~eantimpacts. ServieeCommereialzoinngisproposedfor
the interior portions of the site, behind the Neighborhood Commercial zone. This area backs up to flood
control faeihties on two sides, and will take access across the Neighborhood Commercial uses. The site is
crissorossed with building restrictive easements, afanlt lme, walercourse and~ood plain. While the Service
Commercial zone may allow more intense commercial uses relative to Neighborhood Commercial and
Professional Office zones, habitable buildings will be severely limited to only a few locations on the site.
There will be limited, if any, environmental effects due to the limited ability to develop the site.
Farmland of Local Importance has been identified to the north and south, areas upon which flood control
facilities exist. Farmmg does not eurrently exist in thevieinity, whiehhas been developed with single fsmily
homes, golf course facihties and commercial uses. The areas designated as farmland are not within an existing
Williamson Act Contract, and it is unlikely that farming operations would commence in the future. The effect
of the proposed change in land use designation and zoning is less than siginficant upon agricultural resources
or operations.
Established communities exist to the east across tlood control facilities, and to the south across Pala Road.
However, neither of these communities were designed to expand across to the subject site. Commercial
designations already exist on the site. The proposed change in designation and zoning does not disrupt the
pattern or physical arrangement of communities.
Population and Housing
2a
There will be an inorease in the intensity of commercial uses in those areas proposed for Service Commercial
zoning. However, the proposal will not add any more square fcomge of commercial uses than what was
anticipated under existing commercial land use designations. The impact to local population projections is
considered to be less than significant.
Geologic Problems
3a,b,c,e,
f,g~l
Development of the site may have a significant impact on people involving seismic ground shaking, seismic
ground fallore (including liquefaction), erosion, changes in topography or unstable soil conditions from
excevation, grading or fill and expansive soils. The site is located in Southern California, an area which is
seismically active. The City's General Plan identifies two active faults in the vicinity, the Wildomar Fault and
the Wolf Valley Fault. Parcel Map No. 11984, subdividing the site into four parcels in 1979, identifies a fault
line on the site approximately 200 feet from Pals Road. However, acoording the Riverside County Geologist,
subsequent geologic studies should be reviewed to determine the validity of the Map findings.
Potential impacts will be mitigated by compliance with State of California Alqinst-Pfiolo Special Studies Zone
development criteria and construction in accordance with the Uniform Building Code stmaderds. A soils report
shall be a requirement of development and shall conhfm recommendations for the compaction of the soft which
will serve to mitigate any potentially significant impacts from seismic ground shaking, seismic ground f~ilure
(including liquefaction), erosion, changes in topography or unstable soil conditious from excevation, grading
or fill and expansive sods. Erosion control techniques will be included as a condition of ~proval fur
development projects at the site. Potential uns~ble soil conditions from excavation, ~ading or fill will be
mitigated through the use of landscaping and proper compacfien of the soils. After mitigation measures ~re
performed, no impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
Watt'
4a
Development of the site may result in changes in absorption rates, drainage patterns and the rate and mount of
surface ronoff should development occur as a result of the land use designation and zone change. However,
because of the restrictive easements, fault line, water course and flood plain, development is anticipated to be
limited. The impact as a result of the change in land use designations is considered less than si~nificant.
4b
The General Plan identifies a portion of the site as being within the 100 year flood boundary of T emecula
Creek. Flood Insurance Rate Map Panel No. 060742-00 t0-B identifies all but a small portion at the soulhere
end of the site as being within Zone AE, and a floodway on the northearn one half. Parcel Map No. 11984
recorded in 1979 confirms the limit of the 100 year flood plain traversing the site approximately in hali~ The
Map also identifies a watercourse on the north portion of Parcel 4. Flood control easements already exist
along Temecula Creek. As a condition of the underlying parcel map, the watercourse shall be kept flee of all
buildings and obslructions in order to convey flood flows. The flood plato shall be kept free of all new
dwellmg umts. Given these mifigatinn measures already in place at the site, the project is expected to have
less than significant impact exposing people or property to water related hazards.
4c
Development of the site may have a potentially significant effect on discharges into suffac~ waters and
alterafion of sufface water quality. Devalopment will be required to cornply with the National Pollutsnt
Discharge Elimination System CNPDES) permit from the State Water Resources Control Board. By this
compliance, any potential impacts of development can be mitigated to a level less than significant.
4d,e
The proposed change in land use designations will have a less than si~i~cant impact in changes m the mount
of surface water in any water body or impact currents, or impact the course or direction of water movements.
Because of the restrictive easements, fault line, water course end flood plain, development is anticipated to be
limited. The impact as a result of the change in land use designations is considered leas than significant.
4f-h
The proposed change in land use designations will have a less than significant change in the quantity and
quality ofground waters. Because ofthe restrictive easements, fault line, water course and~ood plsin,
development is anticipated to be limited. The impact as a result of the change in land use designations is
considered less than significant.
4i
The proposed change in land use designations will have a less than significant impact in the reduction in the
amount of ground water otherwise available for public water supplies. Because of the restrictive easements,
fault line, water course and flood plain, development is anticipated to be limited. The impact as a result of the
change in land use designations is considered less than significant.
Air Oualitv
5a
The proposed change in lend use designation will not violate any air quality standard or contribute to an
existing or projeeted air quality violation. Because ofthe restrictive easements, fault line, water course and
flood plain, development is anticipated to be limited and well below target floor area ratios of any commercial
zone. No sj~oni~eent impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
5b,d
The project will not expose sensitive recoptors ~ pollutants. There are no sensitive recoptors in proximity to
the project. According to the City's Development Code, standards with regards to the genoration of
particulate mater, smoke, dust, dirt, ash, odors, toxies and other noxious mailer apply equally to all
commemial zones.
5c
The pmposcd change in land use designation will not alter air movmeot, moisture or temperature, or cause
any change in climate. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
Transportation/Circulation
The proposal is located in an area where areawide traffic and circulation improvements have not yet been
completed and where oecasional traffic congestion has been identified. Area traffic congestion is expected to
significantly improve when these scheduled improvements have been completed. This proposal would shift
the General Plan and Zoning designations from one eommemial designation to another. However, it is
R:\CEQAX237PA,97.1Fe$ 12/10/97e, d 9
anticipated that because of the limited nature of future development, most sites are siEni~cantly constrained
with utility easements and environmental site limitations, that a less than significant impact upon traffic is
anticipated. Thepwjectwillhavealessthansigni~cantimpactuponincreasedvehiclelripsorlrsffie
congestion.
In addition, the Temecula Creek (Pala Road) Bridge Improvement Project will widen Pala Road from two to
four lanes, raplace the existing bridge, and improve tornrag movements at the intersection of State Highway 79
South. This project is anticipated to improve traffic flow and safety in this area. Of the three alternative
ali~tmments forthe Improvement Pwject, Alternative 1A was chosen bssed on engineering, safety
considerations, and environmental constraints. The Bridge Improvement Project is scheduled for consauction
mearly 1998. The project will have aless than signifieant impactupon inoreased vehicle trips or traffc
6d.
Future development will be conditioned to provide sufficient parking capacity in accordance with the City's
Development Code. With proper mitigation measures, future development is not anticipa~d to cause
significant impacts as a result of this project.
Biological Resources
7.all
The site is located adjacent to Temecula Creek and includes four partially disturbed properties that range from
mostly developed to undeveloped. The two middle parcels have been mostly developed. The most southerly
parcel is vacant and covered by non-native grass and tree species. The most northerly parcel may contain
some weftand species. However, this site will also be substantively impacted by the relocation and
replacement of the Pala Road Bridge. According to the Temecula Creek (Pala Road) Bridge Improvement
Project Weft and Mitigation Plan, both temporary and permanent impacts of the Bridge Improvement Project
have been mitigated as part of that project. Any additional, and relatively minor, impacts will be ~daressed
when specific development proposals are submitted. The future development proposals will receive
appropriately detailed environmental review. As a result, no additional impacts are anticipated at this time.
Enermr and Mineral Resources
8.a. The project will not impact and/or confilet with adopted ener~ conservation plans. The project will be
reviewed for compliance with all applicable laws per~ining to energy conservation during the plan check
stage. No permits will be issued unless the project is found to be consistent with these applicable laws. No
significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
8.b.
The project will result in a less than significant hntmct for the use of non-renewable resources in a wasteful
and inefficient itmnner. While there wll] be an increase in the rate of use of any natural resource and in the
depletion of nonrenewable resource(s) (construction materials, fuels for the daily operation, asphalt, b,mher)
and the subsequent depletion of these non-renewable natural resources. Due to the scale of the proposed
development, these impacts are not seen as significsnt.
The project will not result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of future
value to the region and the residents of the State. No known mineral resource that would be of future value
to the region and the realdents of the State are located at this project site. No signi~cam impacts are
anticipated as a result of this project.
H~ar&
The project will not result in a significant impact due to risk of explosion, or the release of any h~-Jntous
substances in the event of an accident or upset couditions since none are prol0osed in the request. While
some reOlil uses may have the potential to sell h~-,,,xlous substances, they are regulated by both the Fire
Depanment and the Depamnent of Environmema! Health. Future development mmmt receive clearance from
the Deluifanent of Environmental Health prior to any plan check submittal. Future development rn~mt
receive clearance from the Fire Depa~ment prior to the issuance of a building permit. This applies to
storage and use of ~u,,J,'dous materials. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
R:\CEQAX.?.37PA97.1ES 1~/10/97 ~d 10
9.b.
The project will not interf~-e with an en~rgeacy r~pons~ plan or an ~n~rgmcy ~vahiation plan. The
subject site is not locatod in an area which could impact an en~rgeacy response plan. The project will take
access from m~i.talnecl strips and will thsrefore not impede any emorgency rl~pon~e or emerglmcy
evacuation plans. No significant impacts are antici~,~ as a result of this project.
The project will no~ result in the creation of any health hazard or podfill health b,,-,,~i. The project will
be reviewed for compliance with all applicable he~.lth laws during the plan check stage. No pennit~ will be
issued unless the project is found to be consisteat with these applicable laws. Reference response 9.a. No
significant i~.c~ are maicipatod as a result of ~ project.
9.d.
The project will not expose people to exiating sources of pote~ial health h~,.~ls. No health h~7~,-ds are
known to be within pro,lmlty of the project. No signScant impacts are anticipated as a result of th~s
project.
The project will not result in an increase to fire hazard in an area with ~,,mmahle brush, grass, or trees.
The project is in an area of existing uses m:l proposed commercial uses. The project is not located within
or proximate to a fire l~,rd area. No significant impacts are micilmted as a result of this project.
Noise
The proposal will result in a less than signfficant hicrease to existing noise levels. The site is p4u~ially
vacant and development of the h~d logically will result in increases to noise levels during construction
phases as well as increasas to noise in the area over the long rim. However, the project site is adjacent to
Pala Road, designated as a alx-hne urban afierinl roadway. Ambient noise levels 100 feet from conterline
are 61.9 to 62.6 CNEL According to the City's General Plan, it is appropr~e to place insensitive land
uses such as commercial adjacent to noise generators such as highways. Long-term noise generated by this
project would be similsx to existing and proposed uses in the area. Noise impacts are anticipated to be lass
than significant as a result of this project in either the short or long-~rm.
lO.b.
The project may expose people to severe noise levels during the developmentJcomtruction phase (shor~ run).
Construction machinery is capable of producing noise in the range of 100+ DBA at 100 fee~ which is
considered very annoying and can cause heating damage from steady 8-hour exposure, Tbis source of noise
will be of short duration and therefore will not be considered si~oni~cant. There will be no long-torm
exposure of people to noise. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
Public Services
11 .a,b.
The pwject will have a less than significant impact upon, or t~ult in a need for new or altered fire or police
protection. The pwject will incrementally increase the need for fire and police protection; however, it will
contribute its fair share to the cost of maintenance of service provision from these entities. No significant
impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will have a less than significant impact upon, or result in a need for new or altered school facilities.
The project will not cause significant numbers of people to relocate within or to the City of Temecula and
therefore will not result in a need for new or altered school facilities. No significant impacts are anticipated as
a result of this project.
ll.d.
The project will have a less than si~ifieant impact for the maintenance of pubhc facilities, including roads.
Funding for maintenance of roads is derived from the Gasoline Tax which is dis~buted to me City of
Temecula from the State of California. Impacts to current and future needs for maintenance of wads as a result
of development of the site will be incremental, however, they will not be considered significant. The Gasoline
Tax is sufficient to cover any of the proposed expenses.
ll.e.
The project will not have an effect upon, or result in a need for new or altered governmental services. No
significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
R:\CEQAX237PA97.1ES 12/10/97 cd ] ]
Utilities and Service Systems
The project will not result in a need for new syst~n'ts or supplies, or substantial alterations to power or natural
gas. These systems are currently being delivered in proximity to the site. No si~ifieant impa~ts are
anticipated as a result of this project.
12.b.
The project will not result in a need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to commumcation
systems (~ferenee ms'ponse No. 12.a. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
12.c. The project will not result in the need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to local or regional
water treatnxent or distribution facilities. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
12.d.
The project will not result in a need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to samta~ sewer
systems or septic tanks. While the project will have an meremental impact upon existing systems, the Final
Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the City's General Plan states: "both EMWD and RCWD have
indicated an ability to supply as much water as is required in their services areas (p. 39)." The FEIR furlher
states: "implementation of the proposed General Plan would not sieni~canfly impact wastewater sentices (p.
40).' It is anticipated that the proposal to change the designation from Office to Corninertial, and the limited
nature of future development under this designation, would not significantly metease the demand for systems
or supplies. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
12.e.
Future development may require additional storm water drainage facilities onsite. However, beeanse this
project is a change in General Plan and Zoning designations from one commercial category to another, no
specific development proposals are being proposed at this time. Any specific development proposal would
receive an appropriately detailed environmental review. No significant impacts are anticipated at this time.
12.f
The proposal will not result in a need for new systems or substantial alterations to solid waste disposal
systems. Any potential impacts ~'om solid waste created by this development can be mitigated through
participation in any Source Reduction and Recycling Programs which are implemented by the City. No
signitieant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.

Aesthetics
13.a.
The City does not have any designated scenic highways. However, future developments on the site will be
reviewed to ensure that project design provides appropriate aesthetic benefits in accordance with the City' s
Development Code and Design Guldelines. Nosil~ifieantimpectsareantieipatedasaresultofthisproject.
13.b.
The project will not have a demonstrable negative aesthetic effect. The pwject, as pwposed, is iraended to
encourage neighborhood commercial uses and appearance along Pala Road, and would locate more intense
scnaoc commercial usus on the intefior portion ofthe site. It is antidpated that this layout will require a more
neighborhood character in terms of building scale and design and in t~,ms of landscaping adjacent to Pala
Road to make future development more compatible with the surrounding area. As a result, no significant
impacts are anticipated.
13.c.
The project will have a potentially signiticsut impact from light and glare. The project will produce and result
in light/glare, as all development of this nature results in new light sources. All light and glare has the
potential to impact the Mount Palornar Observato~t. Future development will be conditioned to be consistent
with Ordinance No. 655 (Ordinance Regulating Light Pollution). With mitigation mere no si~ni~cant
impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
Cultural Resources
14.b.
The General Plan identifies a sensitive archaeological area at the intersection of State Highway 79 South and
Pala Road, which may extend to the subjact site. An Extended Phase I (XphI) Investigation was performed
dated January 1997 for the T emeeula Creek (Pala Road) Bridge confuming the location of two potential
R:\CEQAX237PA97.mS 1~1~ d 12
concen~yations of artifacts in close proximity to State Highway 79. The also study indicated that, expect for
one partially disturbed site, the southerly properties did not have any identified si~m~ifieant cultural deposits.
The results of the investigation recommended further studies. A Phase II Evaluation of Archaeological Site
CA-RIV-4707/H was prepared in January 1997 which concluded that both the historic component and
prehistoric components were not eligible for the National Register. Due to the potential for additional deposits
in the area, future development of the proposed site will be required to continue the investigation for axlffacts
in site specific aress. The potential for future signi~cant impacts will be detemuned and fully mitigated when
future development proposals are onnsidered.
14.c.
The project will not have an impact on historical resources. As noted in the Historic Property Survey Report
completed for the Temecula Creek (Pala Road) Bridge in Februmy 1997, properties in the area of the Pala
Road Bridge were deterwaned ineligible for inclusion in the National Register or the California Register of
Historic Resources, and no locally designated landmarks were identified. No significant impacts are
anticipated as a result fithis project.
14.d.
The project will not have the potential to cause a physical change which would affect unique ethnic cultural
values. Relegate response lzLb,e. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.

PRELIMINARY TRAFFIC ANALYSIS
The purpose of this preliminary analysis is to compare, on a General Plan level, the relative potential
traffic impacts of the proposed creation of Planned Development Ove~ay District No. 1. The
analysis uses the standard trip generation provisions from the General Plan Traffic Study and
standard General Plan lot coverage assumptions. This analysis is not intended to provide a site
specific or land use specific analysis of future traffic impacts. It is intended to provide a General
Plan level of analysis of the proposal. This analysis was prepared using the following standard
assumptions.
1. The lot areas identified on the current Riverside County Assessor's Maps.
Lot area is convened to square footage of buildings based upon the following Floor Area
Ratio targets: 0.25 for Neighborhood Commemial, 0.5 for Professional Office, and 0.1 for
the Service Commercial in the unbuildable easement area. (Using this lower FAR is
intended to simulate the relatively limited daily trip generation attributable to outdoor storage
uses in Situation No. 3.) The square footage estimates are rounded to the nearest one
hundred square feet.
Based upon information taken from the traffic generation analysis used for the preparation
of the General Plan. The Professional Office rate is the average between Commemial Office
(14 trips per 1,000 square feet) and Medical Office (33.7 trips per 1,000 square feet).
Calculated by multiplying the square footage of the future buildings by the trip generation
rate. Final results are rounded to the nearest ten trips.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project is for the subdivision of 7.31 acres into 78 single family lots (including product review)
and two open space/park lots (PA No. 98-0398), and a Zoning Amendment from High Density
Residential to a PDO (Planned Development Overlay) zoning classification (PA No. 98-0398
Tentative Tract Map 28810).

ANALYSIS
Site DesiGn
The existing zoning of the subject site is H (High Density Residential) which is intended to allow
multi-family development at a density range of 13 - 20 dwelling units per acre. The applicant is
proposing a reduction in density to develop small, detached single family parcels to accommodate
zero lot line homes. The zero lot line homes are all two stodes and range from 1,802 to 2,014
square feet with small rear and back yards. Plans 2 and 4 provide a gated ddveway that serves as
a fenced front yard use area. The internal roads are pdvate and include sidewalks on one side of the
street to allow internal pedestrian circulation throughout the development.
Although the minimum number of units per acre in the H (High Density Residential) zone is 13, the
proposed PDO (Planned Development Oveday) zoning allows a reduction in density to 11 units per
acre. Pursuant to the Development Code Chapter 17.22, Planned Development Oveday, the PDO
allows modification to the underlying development standards to allow greater flexibility in reaching
goals and policies of the General Plan, and requires City Council approval to modify the zoning map.
In addition, the applicant has submitted modified development standards (see Exhibit G) to
accommodate the proposed zero lot line structures. The "Planned Development Overlay" (Exhibit
H) which illustrates the building envelopes for each lot is also being proposed. The building
envelopes have been established to allow the addition of patio or shade structures. The project will
be conditioned for all accessory structures to be located within the building envelope, as depicted
on Exhibit H).
The subject parcel is an in-fill lot, as it is the last piece of property to receive development approval
in the immediate area. The amenities for the development include a passive park Ioceted at the
northeast corner and a park in the interior of the development that has a pool, a club house and a
tot lot.
The project will also be conditioned to submit an acoustical study prior to the issuance of grading
permits to determine noise levels generated by future build-out traffic conditions. The study shall
include mitigation measures to reduce noise levels to ensure compliance with General Plan noise
level standards for residential units potentially impacted from the traffic noise along Margarita Road.
Access, Traffic and Circulation
The project will take access from one entrance off of Margadta Road that is restricted to right in/right
out only. There is one private road that provides circulation throughout the development. The
project access and circulation is complies with the City's Development Code, General Plan and
Subdivision Ordinance. Therefore, the project is consistent with the existing traffic patterns in the
area.
Architecture
The proposed project offers four different elevations which have a country influence. The side and
rear elevations have been enhanced from the initial submittal with the addition of window treatments.
The proposed structures are very similar to the detached condominiuro project that was approved
by the Planning Commission on August 5, 1998. The proposed homes also serve as a good
transitional development between the apartments to the south and west, the detached
condominiums to the east, and detached single family residential developments to the north and
further east. Staff feels the proposed development is a high quality design that is very compatible
with the surrounding development in terms of density, site design, product type, colors and materials,
and bulk and mass.

Landscapin~l
A passive park is proposed to be located at the northeast corner or the development. In addition,
the project proposes a park in the interior of the development with a club house and a tot lot. Due
to the small size of the lots, the applicant is proposing modified landscape standards that are
appropdate for the small, zero lot line parcels. Minimum front yard landscaping includes a small lawn
area, a vadety of shrubs, a 15 gallon street tree (Fern Pine) and a one (1)15 gallon accent tree (Red
Crepe Myrtle). Staff feels the landscaping standards as illustrated on the conceptual landscape plan
are appropriate and in proper proportion to the size of the lots.
EXISTING ZONING AND GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION
The General Plan Land Use designation and current zoning for the site is H (High Density
Residential). A Planned Development Overlay (PDO) Zone which reduces the minimum density is
permitted pursuant to Chapter 17.22 of the Development Code, and a Tentative Tract Map (including
product review) is permitted pursuant to compliance with the City's Subdivision Ordinance No. 460
and the City's Design Guidelines. The project, as proposed, is consistent with the Development
Code, General Plan and Design Guidelines.
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 consists of the subdivision of 7.31 acres into 78 single family lots (including product
review) and two open space/park lots (PA No. 98-0398). and a Zoning Amendment from High
Density Residential to a PDO (Planned Development Overlay) zoning classification (PA No. 98-0398
Tentative Tract Map 28810). The PDO allows the property to be developed below the minimum
density of the existing High Density Residential Zoning classification (13-20 units per acre) to a
density of 11 units per acre. The site proposes one point of access from Margarita Road and
provides internal access throughout the site. The proposed product is ven/compatible with the
surrounding area in terms of site layout, product type, colors and matedais, and bulk and mass.
FINDINGS - Tentative Tract Map
The proposed use is in conformance with the General Plan 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 (Mt. 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.
That the proposed land division is consistent with applicable general and specific plans. The
proposed land division of the project is consistent with the City's General Plan target land use
designation and therefore meets the goals and policies of the General Plan.
R:~staffrpt\397&398pc(Recvd).,doc vgw 11/25/98 4
That the design or improvement of the proposed land division is consistent with applicable
general and specific plans. The project has been reviewed for conformance with the City's
General Plan, Development Code, Subdivision and Landscaping Ordinances. The project
is consistent with these documents and conditions of approval have been placed on the
project accordingly to assure that the development conforms to City Standards..
That the site of the proposed land division is physically suitable for the type of development.
The physical characteristics of the site (topography, drainage, access, etc.) was specifically
designed to accommodate the proposed land division as the subject site is an in-fill lot with
a slightly irregular shape.
That the site of the proposed land division is physically suitable for the proposed density of
the development. The project site is an in-fill lot with an irregular shape. The proposed
density was specifically determined as a result of the physical characteristics of the lot
(shape, topography, etc.). As a result, the proposed development is proposing a reduction
in density to 11 units per acre instead of the 13-20 units per acre, which is permitted under
the existing High Density zoning classification, The proposed reduction in density is
consistent with the General Plan Land Use designation target density.
That the design of the proposed land division or proposed improvements are not likely to
cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or
wildlife or their habitat. The Biological reporl submitted with the project stated that there is
not fish, wildlife or habitat on the project site, and the project will not affect any fish, wildlife
or habitat off-site. The project is conditioned to obtain all necessary permits and or
clearances from the applicable environmental agencies. It is determined that the project, as
conditioned, will not individually or cumulatively have an adverse effect on wildlife resources,
as defined in Section 711.2 of the Fish and Game Code.
That the design of the proposed land division or the types of improvements are not likely to
cause serious public health problems. The project has been reviewed for conformance with
the City's General Plan, Development Code, Subdivision and Landscaping Ordinances. The
project is consistent with these documents and conditions of approval have been placed on
the project accordingly to assure that the development conforms to City Standards.
That the design of the proposed land division or the type of improvements will not conflict
with easements, acquirad by the public at large, for access through, or use of, property within
the proposed land division. A land division may be approved if it is found that alternate
easements for access or for use will be provided and that they will be substantially equivalent
to ones previously acquired by the public. This subsection shall apply only to easements of
record or to easements established by judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The
project will take access from Margadta Road. and will not obstruct any easements.
FINDINGS - Zoning Amendment
That the proposed Zoning Amendment is compatible with the health, safety and welfare of
the community. The project was designed and is conditioned to comply with all City
Ordinances, Development Code, CityWide Design Guidelines and the General Plan.
Therefore, as condition, the project will be compatible with the health, safety and welfare of
the community.
That the proposed Zoning Amendment is consistent with the City's General Plan. The
proposed project is consistent with the goals and polides of the General Plan which allows
for flexibility in the zoning to allow a range of transitions of densities.
R:\staffrpt\397&398pcCRecvd)..do~ vgw 11/25198 5
The project is compatible with surrounding land uses. The proposed project is very similar
to the recently approved condominium project to the east. The project serves as a good
transitional developmen! as there are apartments to the south and west, detached
condominiums to the east, and detached single family residential developments to the north
and further east. Staff feels the proposed development is a high quality design that is very
compatible with the surrounding development in terms of density, site design, product type,
colors and materials, and bulk and mass.
The proposal will not have an adverse effect on surrounding property, as the project is very
compatible to the existing developments in terms of density, site design, product type, colors
and materials and bulk and mass.
The changes proposed in the Zoning Amendment represent a decrease in the density from
High Density Residential to PDO (Planned Development Overly) and will not increase the
impacts associated with the proposed tentative tract map or subsequent future development
of the property.

Dear Ms. Anders:
Please be advised that the above-nBferenced property is located within
the boundaries of Rancho California Water District (RCWD). Water
service, therefore, would be available upon completion of financial
arrangements between RCWD and the property owner.
4t may be necessary for the developer to extend on-site and off-site water
facilities to adequately service this developmenL If fire protection is
required, the developer will need to contact RCVVD for fees and
requirements.
Water availability would be contingent upon the property owner signing.
an Agency Agreement which assigns water management rights, if any, to
RCWD.

Dear Ms. Anders:
Planning Application 98-0397
We have reviewed the above referenced documents and request consideration of
the following comments:
Caltrans supports economic growth and orderly land use development;
however, new development must pay its fair share for upgrading infrastructure
facilities needed to serve the development. This infrastructure includes State
highways and freeways. It also includes both direct and cumulative traffic
impacts. All jurisdictions should take measures available to fund improvements
and reduce total trips generated. In view of the fact there are limited funds
available for infrastructure improvements, we recommend the City of Temecula
take the lead in developing a fair-share mechanism in which each project can
fund improvements for the decrease in Level of Service (LOS) for which it is
responsible.
· Please send a copy of the Plot/Site plan for this proposal.
· Additional comments may be forthcoming upon receipt and review of this site.

CULTURAl, RESOURCE REVIEW
Recot ds at the Eastern information Center of the California Historical Resources Information System have
been reviewed to determine if this project would adversely affect prehistoric or historic cultural resources:
._~The proposed project area has not been surveyed for cultural resources and contains or is adjacent to known cultural
resource(s). A Phase I study is recommended.
Based upon cxisting data the proposed project area has the potential for containing cultural resources. A Phase I ~tudy
is recommended.
__ A Phase I cultural resource study (MF #
) identified one or more cultural resourccs.
The project area contains, or has the possibility of containing, cultural resources. However, duc to the nature of the
project or prior data rocovery studies, an adverse effect on cultural resourct. s is not anticipated. Further study is not
recommended.
A Phase I cultural resource study (MF #
)idcnti~ed no cultural resources. Further study is not recommended.
There is a low probability of cultural resources. Furlher study is not recommended.
If, during construction, cultural resources are cncountcred, work should bc halted or diverted in the immediate area w'njJc
a qualified archaeologist evaluates the finds and makes recommendations.
Due to the archaeological sensitivity ofthc area, earthmoving during construction should bc monitored by a professional

NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF TEMECULA DOES
RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. That the above recitations are true and correct.
Section 2. Findings. The Planning Commission in recommending approval of Planning
Application No. PA98-0397 (Zoning Amendment), makes the following findings, to wit:
1. Planning Application No. PA98-0397 (Zoning Amendment), as proposed, is
compatible with the health, safety and welfare of the community. The project was designed and is
conditioned to comply with all City Ordinances, Development Code, City-Wide Design Guidelines and
the General Plan. Therefore, as condition, the project will be compatible with the health, safety and
welfare of the community.
2 Planning Application No. PA98-0397 (Zoning Amendment) is consistent with the
City's General Plan. The proposed project is consistent with the goals and policies of the General
Plan which allows for flexibility in the zoning to allow a range of transitions of densities.

3. The project is compatible with surrounding land uses. The proposed project is very
similar to the recently approved condominium project to the east. The project serves as a good
transitional development as there are apartments to the south and west, detached condominiums
to the east, and detached single family residential developments to the north and further east. Staff
feels the proposed development is a high quality design that is very compatible with the surrounding
development in terms of density, site design, product type, Colors and materials, and bulk and mass.
5. The proposal will not have an adverse effect on surrounding property, as the project
is very compatible to the existing developments in terms of density, site design, product type, colors
and materials and bulk and mass.
5. The changes proposed in the Zoning Amendment represents a decrease in the
density from High Density Residential to PDO (Planned Development Overly) and will not increase
the impacts associated with the proposed tentative tract map or subsequent future development of
the property.
Section 3. Environmental Compliance. An Initial Study prepared for this project indicates
that although the proposed project could have a significant impact on the environment, there will not
be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described in the Conditions of
Approval have been added to the project, and a Mitigated Negative Declaration, therefore, is hereby
adopted.
Section 4. Approval. That the City of Temecula Planning Commission hereby reCommends
that the City Council adopt the Ordinance substantially in the form contained in Exhibit A.
Section 5. Conditions. That the City of Temecula Planning Commission hereby
recommends approval of Planning Application No. PA98~0397 (Zoning Amendment) from High
Density Residential to a PDO (Planned Development Oveday) zoning classification substantially in

The project is consistent with the City's General Plan and has a Land Use Designation of H (High
Density 13-20 dwelling units per acre). The site is being developed at a density of approximately 11
units per acre which is well below the maximum density range of 20 units per acre. The proposed
change of zone is to allow development of 11 units per acre which is below the minimum density
requirements of 13 units per acre in the High Density classification. The General Plan Environmental
Impact Report (EIR) analyzed the maximum density allowance for each zoning classification; therefore,
the requested reduction in density is determined to be compatible with, and not be in conflict with the
General Plan or zoning classification. The subject site is an in-fill lot that is proposing development that
will serve as a"good transitional development to the condominium project to the east and the
apartments to the south and west.
The overall impacts from all General Plan Land Use Designations were analyzed in the Environmental
impact Report (EIR) for the General Plan. Agencies with jurisdiction within the City commented on the
scope the analysis contained in the EIR and how the land uses would impact their particular agency.
Mitigation measures approved with the EIR will be applied to this project. Further. all agencies with
jurisdiction over the project are also being given the opportunity 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. There will be limited, if any environmental effects on environmental
plans or polices adopted by agencies with jurisdiction over the project. No significant effects are
anticipated as a result of this project.
1.C
The proposed tentative tract map and change of zone will not be incompatible with existing land use,
and will not to be considered incompatible or impact the existing residential tracts and multi-family
housing developments in the vicinity. The project has been proposed at approximately 11 units per
acre which is below the maximum density allowance of 20 units per acre. Although the tentative tract
map is for detached, single family lots, it is very similar to the adjacent condominium project to the east
in terms of lot size, site design, circulation and amenities. Both developments are detached "patio
home" products, and thus, very compatible. The subject project will also serve as a good transitional
development between the existing residential tract developments to the north and further east, and the
high density apartment complexes under construction to the west and south. The project complies with
the City-Wide Design Guidelines, the Development Code and General Plan. The project was designed
to be compatible with the surrounding area in terms of architecture, site design, ingress/egress,
density and landscaping. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project.

The project will not affect agricultural resources or disrupt or divide the physicel arrangement of an
established community (including low-income or minodty community). There is evidence that a single
family residence was built at this site years ago, but the site is now vacant. Therefore, no established
residential communities (including low-income or minority communities) are at this site. The trends in
the vicinity have depleted the agricultural significance of the site. No significant effects are not
anticipated as a result of this project.

Comments:
2.a
The project will not cumulatively exceed official regional or local population projections. The project will
result in the construction of 78 detached single family residential lots which is consistent with the City's
General Plan Land Use and Zoning Designation of H (High Density Residential). The proposed
density is approximately 11 units per acre which is below the permitted maximum density of 20 units
per acre. Since the project is consistent with the City's General Plan, and does not exceed the
maximum density, the project 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 and Zoning Designation of H (High Density Residential) and
will primarily serve the housing needs for people in the immediate and surrounding areas. The project
may cause som~ people to relocate to or within Temecula; however, due to its limited scale, it will not
induce substantial growth in the area. No significant 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 that will
be providing moderate priced housing. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project.

3.a. The project will not result in a less than significant impact on people as a result of fault rupture. The
project is not located in a fault zone or within a fault setback area; therefore no significant effects are
anticipated as a result of this project.
c,g,h
The project may have a potentially significant impact on people involving seismic ground shaking as the
project is located in Southern California, an area which is seismically active. There may also be a
potentially signirLcant impact from seismic ground failure, liquefaction, subsidence and expansive soils.
Any potentially significant impacts will be mitigated through building construction which is consistent
with Uniform Building Code standards. Further. preliminary soil reports shall be submitted which will
determine the condition of the soil on the subject site. The soil reports will be reviewed prior to the
issuance of a grading permit to mitigate the project to a level of insignificance. The soil reports will also
contain recommendations for the compaction of the soil which will serve to mitigate any potentially
significant impacts from seismic ground shaking, seismic ground failure, liquefaction, subsidence or
expansive soils if applicable as a result of the soil reports. After mitigation measures are performed, no
significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project.
3.d.
The project will not expose people to a seiche, tsunami or volcanic 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.
3,e.
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 within close proximity to the site. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
3.f.
The project will have a less than significant impact from erosion, changes in topography, grading or fill.
Increased wind and water erosion of soils both on and off-site may occur during the construction phase
of the project and the project may result in changes in siltation, deposition or erosion. However,
erosion control techniques will be included as a condition of approval for the project. In the long-run,
hardscape and landscaping will serve as permanent erosion control for the project. Since the amount
of grading will be the minimum necessary for the realization of the project, modification to topography
and ground surface relief features will not be considered significant. Potential unstable soil conditions
from excavation, grading or fill will be mitigated through the use of landscaping, mitigation measures

Comments:
4.a
The project will have a less than signi~can impact to the change in absorption rates, drainage patterns,
or the rate and mount of surface runoff. The project site is primarily in its natural state but has been
disturbed by regularly dicing of the site for weed control purposes. There is an existing drainage
channel on site that primarily handles urban run off from the development to the east. Some changes
to absorption rates, drainage patterns and the rate and amount of surface runoff is expected whenever
development occurs on previously permeable ground. Previously permeable ground will be rendered
impervious by construction of buildings, accompanying hardscape and driveways. While absorption
rates and surface runoff will change, potential impacts shall be mitigated through site design. Drainage
conveyances will be required for the project to safely and adequately handle the existing and future
drainage flows. After mitigation measures are performed, no significant impacts are anticipated as a
result of this project.
4.b.
The project will not expose people or property to water related hazards such as flooding or water
related hazards because the project is not located within a dam inundation area or the 100 year Flood
Boundary as identified in the City of Temecula General Plan Final Environmental Impact Report and
pursuant to FEMA maps. Therefore, no significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
4.c
The project may have a potentially significant effect on discharges into surface waters and alteration of
surface water quality. Prior to issuance 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) permit from the State Water Resources Control Board. No grading shall be permitted until an
NPDES Notice of Intent has been filed or the project is shown to be exempt. By complying with the
NPDES requirements, 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 project.

4.d
4.e.
4.f-h.
4.i
The project will have a less than significant impact in a change in the amount of surface water in any
waterbody or impact currents. Additional surface runoff will occur because previously permeable
ground will be rendered impervious by construction of buildings, accompanying hardscape and
driveways. Due to the limited scale of the project, the additional amount of drainage will not considered
significant. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project may have a potentially significant impact in the course or direction of wa~er movements.
The site is primarily in its natural state although there is evidence on site that indicates a single family
residence was developed some time ago. The site currently has a drainage channel that traverses the
northern portion of the site. The channel accommodates the drainage (storm water runoff) from the
subdivision to the east. The natural water movement of the drainage channel will be modified as the
channel will be conveyed underground to handle the existing and future drainage flows. The project will
be conditioned to obtain all necessary permits and or clearances from the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers and the California Department of Fish and Game. Therefore with the conditions of approval,
no significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will not 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 aquifer by cuts or
excavations or through substantial loss of groundwater 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. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
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 General Plan, "Rancho California Water District indicate that they can
accommodate 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.

Comments:
6.a.
While the project may result in an incremental increase in traffic congestion, it will result in a less than
significant increase in vehicle trips. It is anticipated that this project will result in a less than significant
increase to the existing traffic volumes dudng the AM peak hour and PM peak hour time frames at the
intersections of Margarita Road and Moraga Road, and the intersection of La Serena Way and
Margarita Road according to standard trip calculation methodologies. The proposed development is in
compliance with the land use and development standards of this zone which was analyzed in the EIR
for the General Plan. Therefore, it is determined that the proposed development will not adversely
affect the LOS for this area, but was included in the EIR analysis. The applicant will be required to pay
traffic signal mitigation fees and public facility fees as conditions of approval for the project. After
mitigation measures are performed and development impact fees paid, no impacts are anticipated as a
result of this project.
6.b.
The project will not result in hazards to safety from design features. The project is designed to current
City standards and does not propose any hazards to safety from design features. No significant impacts
are anticipated as a result of this project.
6.c.
The project will not result in inadequate emergency access or access to nearby uses. The project is a

Comments:
7.a,d
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 site is primarily in its natural
state although there is evidence on site that indicates that a single family residence was developed
some time ago. The site also has a drainage channel that traverses the northern podion of the site.
The channel primarily accommodates the drainage (storm water runoff) from the subdivision to the
east. A Biological Assessment was prepared in September of 1998 which states that the site does not
possess wetland characteristics; does not have significant biological resources; and none of the wildlife
species observed at the site are listed as Special-Status and Sensitive Animal Species. Therefore, the
Biological Assessment concluded that the project will not result in a direct adverse impact on significant
biological resoumes (vegetation, habitat, wildlife and/or wetlands).
However, the sarhe drainage channel traverses the two parcels to the east and west of the subject site.
The parcels to the east and west were required to obtain all applicable permits pursuant Section 404 of
the Clean Water Act (Army Corps of Engineers) and or Section 1603 of the California Fish and Game
Code. Therefore, staff will be conditioning this project to obtain all necessary permits and or clearances
from California Depadment of Fish and Game and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The project site
is located within the Stephen's Kangaroo Rat Habitat Fee Area. Habitat Conservation fees will be
required to mitigate the effect of cumulative impacts to the species. With the conditions of approval, the
required state and federal permitting and/or clearances, and mitigation measures, the project impacts
are anticipated to be mitigated to a level of insignificance.
7.b.
The project will not result in an impact to locally designated species. Locally designated 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 in Old Town, and since there are no locally designated species on
site, no significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
7.c. The project will not result in an impact to locally designated natural communities. Reference response
7.b. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
7.e.
The project will not result in an impact to wildlife dispersal or migration corridors. The project site does
not serve as pad of a migration corridor due to its close proximity to extensive urban levels of
development (nodh, east and west), the regular dicing of the site and the dominance of the site by non-
native species. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.

The project will not impact and/or conflict with adopted energy conservation plans. The project will be
reviewed for compliance with all applicable laws pertaining to energy conservation during the plan
check stage, No permits will be issued unless the project is found to be consistent with these
applicable laws, No significant impacts am anticipated as a result of this project.
8.b.
The project will result in a less than significant impact for the use of non-renewable resources in a
wasteful and inefficient manner. While there will be an increase in the rate of use of any natural
resource and in the depletion of nonrenewable resource(s) (construction materials, fuels for the daily
operation, asphalt, lumber) and the subsequent depletion of these non-renewable natural resources.
Due to the scale of the proposed development, these impacts are not seen as significant.
8.c.
The project will not result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of future
value to the region and the residents of the State. No known mineral resource that would be of future

g,e.
The project will not result in a dsk of explosion, or the release of any hazardous substances in the event
of an accident or upset conditions since none are proposed in this request. Therefore, no significant
impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will not interfere with an emergency response plan or an emergency evaluation plan. The
subject site is not located in an area that could impact an emergency response plan. The project will
take access from a maintained street and will therefore not impede any emergency response or
emergency evacuation plans. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will not result in the creation of any health hazard or potential health hazard. The project will
be reviewed for compliance with all applicable health laws dudng the plan check stage. No permits will
be issued unless the project is found to be consistent with these applicable laws. No significant
impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
The project will not expose people to existing sources of potential health hazards. No health hazards
are known to be within proximity of the project. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this
project.
The project will not result in an increase to fire hazard in an area with ~ammable brush, grass, or trees.
The project is an industrial/warehouse development in an area of existing and future similar uses. The
project is not located within or proximate to a fire hazard area. No significant impacts are anticipated as
a result of this project.

lO.a. Increase in existin9 noise levels?
10.b. Exposure of people to severe noise levels?
No
Impact
Comments:
10,a.
The proposal will result in a less than significant increase to existing noise levels. The site is currently
vacant and development of the land logically will result in increases 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. No 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 machinery 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 significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this
project.

applicant will be required to pay all applicable school fees as a result of this development. No
significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
11.d.
The project will have a less than significant impact for the maintenance of public facilities, including
roads, Funding for maintenance of roads is derived from the Gasoline Tax that is distributed to the City
of Temecula from'the State of California. Impacts to current and future needs for maintenance of roads
as a result of development of the site will be incremental, however, they will not be considered
significant. The Gasoline Tax is sufficient to cover any of the proposed expenses.

12.d.
The project will not result in a need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to sanitary
sewer systems or septic tanks. While the project will have an incremental irapad upon existing
systems, the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the City's General Plan states: "both
EMWD and RCWD have indicated an ability to supply as much water as is requirad in their services
areas (p. 39)." The FEIR further states: "implementation of the proposed General Plan would not
significantly impact wastewater services (p. 40)." Since the project is consistent with the City's General
Ran, no significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. There are no septic tanks on site
or proximate to the site. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
12.e.
The proposal will result in a less than significant need for new systems or supplies, or substantial
alterations to storm water drainage. The project will need to provide some additional on-site drainage
systems. The drainage system will be required as a condition of approval for the project and will tie into
the existing system. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.
12.f.
The proposal will not result in a need for new systems or substantial alterations to solid waste disposal
systems, Any potential impacts from solid waste created by this development can be mitigated through
participation in any Source Reduction and Recycling Programs which are implemented by the City. No
significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.

The map and the Specific Plan amendment will be re-noticed and brought before you once the
amendment is completed.
