Public Convenience or Necessity for Proposed Ultramar Gas Station By way of overhead maps, Senior Planner Fagan presented the staff report (of record), specifying the location of current licensed alcohol uses within proximity to this particular use. It was noted that Commissioner Fahey arrived at 6:13 P.M., For Commissioner Mathewson, Senior Planner Fagan provided additional information regarding the justification for the findings of Public Convenience or Necessity (PCN) with respect to the 10 licenses issued to similar uses within the City; relayed that in the past, the Planning Commission had denied a PCN finding based on that particular use's proximate location to sensitive uses (i.e. school); and confirmed that the Police Department had relayed no opposition to the license issuance for this particular use. tn response to Chairman Guerriero's querying, Senior Planner Fagan relayed that staff did not calculate the number of existing licensed establishments within this census zone; noted that at the December 15, 1999 Planning Commission meeting staff would present to the Commission additional information regarding the concentration of existing licensed establishments within corridors of the City, and further specify the types of uses in order for the staff to receive input from the Commission. Mr Ron Bradley, 30348 Via Canada, relayed that there were no licensed establishments from the 1-15 freeway, east for 10 miles; noted the applicant's willingness to support Sting Operations in cooperation with law enforcement; advised that the applicant and his wife would be managing the store; reiterated that the Police Department expressed no opposition to the licensing of this particular use; and recommended that the Planning Commission make the PNC finding. Mr. Clark Ramsey, the applicant, provided additional information regarding the development plan for this particular use; and relayed that the beer and wine sales would encompass approximately fifteen to twenty percent (15%-20%) of the convenience store's revenues, noting the diminished value of the site if the beer and wine license was not issued. Mr. Wayne Hall, 4231 Agena Street, relayed concern regarding the proliferation of licensed alcohol establishments within the City, specifically with respect to off-site sales; noted that the majority of the illegal sales of alcohol occurred at these particular types of uses; and relayed that due to the proximate existing licensed uses, he was opposed to the finding of Necessity or Convenience. PlarlComnvminutesl120899 The Commission relayed their concludinq remarks, as follows: Commissioner Webster commended staff for the thorough provisions in the agenda material, specifically with respect to the criteria data; and relayed that he could not justify the PCN finding due to the proximate location of the existing licensed uses. In concurrence with Commissioner Webster's comments, Commissioner Mathewson relayed that at this point he could not make a finding of PCN due to the existing licensed establishments, specifically in light of the location of the licensed use across the street. Commissioner Fahey advised that since she was not present for the staff report, she would be abstaining with regard to this Agenda Item. Chairman Guerriero relayed that per his previous contact with ABC regarding the number of existing licenses within this particular census zone he was concerned with the proliferation of such uses in this particular area; referenced his work with the School District, educating children and their parents with respect to the ills of alcohol and drug abuse; and noted that he would have difficulty supporting the finding due to the number of proximate existing licensed establishments. For Commissioner Mathewson, Chairman Guerriero noted that via his conversations with ABC. the concentration of licensed uses was directed by the City or the County thereof, and was. at times, politically based. MOTION: Commissioner Webster moved to deny the finding of Public Convenience or Necessity. Commissioner Mathewson seconded the motion and voice vote reflected unanimous approval with the exception of Commissioner Fahey who abstained. PUBLIC HEARINGS 5. Plannin~l Application No. PA97-0307 (Tentative Parcel Map No. 28627) Request to subdivide an approximate 37-acre parcel into 19 commercial lots and one open space lot.

(This Agenda Item was considered after Agenda Item No. 7. See page 8.) 3 planComm/minutes/120899 Planninq AI31~lication Nos. PA99-0243 (Tentative Parcel Map No. 29286); PA99-0244 (General Plan Amendment, and PA99-0245 (Zonincl Amendment) l) PA99o0243 (Tentative Tract Map No. 29286) is a request to subdivide 9.75 acres into 38 single family residential lots and tow open space lots that comply with the Low Medium (LM) Density Residential zoning classification (3-6 dwelling units per acre); 2) PA99-0244 (General Plan Amendment) is a request to remove the subject site from the Specific Plan Overlay designation on Figure 2-5 of the General Plan and revert back to the underlying Land Use Designation of Low Medium (LM) Density Residential zoning of the General Plan Land Use map; 3) PA99-0245 (Zoning Amendment) is a request to change the existing zoning map from Specific Plan Overlay (SP) to Low Medium (LM) Density Residential which is consistent with the underlying General Plan Land Use designation of Low Medium (LM) Density Residential. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended by the Planning Department that the Planning Commission approve the request. Via overhead maps, Project Planner Anders presented a detailed overview of the staff report (per agenda material), highlighting the location of this particular proposal; relayed that due to the site's bifurcation by Margarita Road, both the applicant and staff concur that inclusion in the Specific Plan would be inappropriate; noted that to implement the revision, the proposal required a General Plan Amendment (although the Land Use designation would remain the same), a Zoning Amendment (due to the site's inclusion in the Specific Plan), and approval of a Tentative Tract Map; specified the proposed densities; clarified the access points; relayed that due to contact from the Airport Land Use Commission, the applicant had agreed to condition the project to review by the Airport Land Use Commission; and noted that the Tentative Tract Map had been developed in compliance with the City's Development Code, and the General Plan [relative to the Low Medium (LM) density requirements]. For Commissioner Webster, Project Planner Anders relayed additional information regarding the requirements of this particular project with respect to the Development Code, and with respect to adherence to architectural standards (which would be appreved per a Director's Hearing). In response to Commissioner Webster's and Mathewson's queries, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks clarified the access provisions, noting the proposed landscaped median on Margarita Road which would limit left-turning movements on Margarita Road; and clarified the right-of*way provisions, which would be consistent with the current circulation plans. Mr. Bill Green, representing the applicant, relayed concurrence with staffs comments; and for Commissioner Fahey, provided additional information regarding the restrictions PlanCommlminute~120899 associated with the implementation of two outlets, with respect to concerns relayed from the Fire Department and the Public Works Department. Mr. Bill Storm, the applicant, was available for questions and comments of the Commission; and relayed concurrence with staffs comments. The Commission presented their conclusions, as follows: Commissioner Fahey noted that although she would have preferred larger lot sizes, which would be consistent with the current standards, she was not opposed to the proposed request. In light of the restrictions associated with the access issues associated with this particular site, Commissioner Mathewson relayed no opposition to the proposed project since the Public Works Department was satisfied with the provisions of access. Commissioner Webster relayed concurrence with the Tract Map, as proposed, due to the limitations of the site; recommended that with respect to the architectural standards, that the project be conditioned to require review of the Design Guidelines or a Product Review. Chairman Guerriero relayed concurrence with Commissioner Webster's comments. MOTION: Commissioner Webster moved to close the public hearing; to approve staffs recommendation with the attached conditions.

Add- · A Condition subjecting the project to review by the Airport Land Use Commission. A Condition requiring the applicant to submit Design Guidelines for review by the Planning Commission or be subject to Product Review. per staffs and the applicant's recommendation. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Webster and voice vote reflected unanimous approval. The applicant provided assurance that this project would reflect sure quality; and relayed a preference that the project be subject to Product Review rather than Design Guidelines Review. Commissioner Webster clarified that the project had been conditioned to either be subject to Design Guidelines Review, or Product Review, specifying the latitude. Rancho Hiclhlands Drive General Plan Amendment (Planninq Al~131ication PA99-0451 ) Request to amend the General Plan Land Use Map to change the Land Use Designation for a portion of the Rancho Highlands Specific Plan from Open Space to Highway Tourist Commercial. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended by the Planning Department that the Planning Commission approve the request. Relaying that this proposal if approved, would be the fourth Land Use Element Amenc~ment for the year of 1999, Senior Planner Hogan provided an overview of the staff report (of record); referenced sections of the Specific Plan (per agenda material) with respect to the Grading Plan, and the Open Space/Recreation area; provided additional information regarding the incorrect denoted acreage in the Planning Areas; with respect to Commission querying, relayed that while staff was of the opinion that a 6 planComeTI/minute$1120899 Specific Plan Amendment was not necessary, that if it was the Commission's desire, that the matter could be brought back to the Commission at a later date; and with respect to the proposed CIP Project to construct a pedestrian bridge over the Interstate, noted that the specific location of that project had not been determined. The Commission's conclusionarv comments were, as follows: Commissioner Webster queried the lack of provisions in this particular proposal with respect to the requirement to implement a Park and Ride facility, as well as, the requirement to have a Transportation Systems Management Team and the establishment of a coordinator (in Planning Area No. 2) and with respect to Planning Area No. 2, recommended that there be a Specific Plan Amendment to address the revisions in this particular area. In response to Commissioner Fahey's comments regarding the implementation of a Park and Ride facility, Senior Planner Hogan relayed that the original intent of the requirement was that there be consideration of alternative transportation details, noting that a Park and Ride facility would be one option; specified that the language was vague as to specificity, noting that the proposed pedestrian bridge could qualify as meeting this padicular requirement. Commissioner Fahey relayed that since there had been no implementation of any alternative transportation plan, that if this particular site was not maintained as Open Space, this site would be the sole area available for meeting that criteria. Chairman Guerriero relayed concurrence with Commissioner Fahey's comments. While concurring with staff's recommendation that revisions were necessitated, Commissioner Webster relayed that with respect to the Land Use Plan and the Grading Plan, this proposal was clearly identified as an Open Space/Slope area; noted the intent for provision of a buffer within this area between the High Density Residential and the Office Professional, and between the freeway and the development on site, which this area satisfied; relayed concern with exceeding the development within Planning Area No. 2, in conjunction with the lack of provision for an alternative transportation element; reiterated the recommendation for a Specific Plan Amendment; and relayed that he was not in favor of this proposal. MOTION: Commissioner Webster moved to close the public hearing; and to deny staff's recommendation due to the following: 1) the proposal's nonconformance with the Specific Plan, and 2) the plan to develop additional acreage, rather than maintain an Open Space area, noting the associated negative impact with respect to traffic. Chairman Guerriero seconded the motion and voice vote reflected unanimous approval. It was noted that at 6:58 P.M. the meeting recessed, reconvening at 7:09 P.M. At this time the Commission considered Agenda Item No. 5. 7 PlanComrn/rnlnute$1120899 5. Planninq Al~plication No, PA97-0307 (Tentative Parcel Map No. 28627) Request to subdivide an approximate 37-acre parcel into 19 commercial lots and one open space lot. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended by the Planning Department that the Planning Commission approve the request. Chairman Guerriero advised that he would be abstaining with regard to this Agenda Item, and therefore left the meeting at 7:10 P.M. (It was noted that Vice Chairman Mathewson would now be presiding.) Via overheads, Project Planner DeGange presented a detailed overview of the project (of record); specified the location of the site, and the proposed lot sizes; relayed the negative effect of the traffic impacts associated with this particular project; specified the adverse effects regarding safety, queuing. merging, and weaving of traffic flows which had been expressed by the Public Works Department and Caltrans with respect to the applicant's proposed inadequate spacing between the I-15 freeway southbound offramp and the proposed access into the site (which was approximately 160 feet); relayed that based on the traffic concerns, staff was of the opinion that the mitigating measures associated with the project did not adequately mitigate the impacts, and that staff had, therefore, performed additional analysis and developed an alternative access point (relocated approximately 250 feet to the west) which would adequately mitigate the impacts; noted that the project would be conditioned to submittal (at a future point in time) of a revised map, denoting a modified access point (250 feet west of the existing access point); provided additional information regarding the adjacent property owner's correspondence with the applicant due to the concern with respect to the provision of access to the property to the south of this particular project, relaying that the correspondence and the response correspondence from the applicant's representatives had been provided for Commission review (per supplemental agenda material); advised that Deputy Director of Public Works Parks would provide additional information regarding the traffic issues; and with respect to the biological issues associated with this project, specified the mitigation measures, the permitting process, and the Resource Agency approvals required by the applicant. Deputy Director of Public Works Parks reiterated the traffic issues associated with this particular project; referenced a letter from Caltrans dated October 20, 1997, addressing concern with respect to the proposed limited intersection spacing from the I-15 freeway offramp, noting that Caltrans had recommended that the distance be a minimum of 410 feet, rather than the proposed 160 feet; relayed that although the applicant had made efforts to work with staff with respect to the traffic concerns, that staff was of the opinion that the proposed access point would adversely affect traffic flows; advised that in order to mitigate the issue, staff had proposed an alternate plan, relocating the access point (250 feet west of the existing access point); and introduced Senior Engineer Moghadam, who would present, for demonstration purposes only, a simulated exhibit (via computer software), displaying the flows of traffic with the proposed access point, in comparison to staff's alternate recommended access point. pianCornnvmirtutesl120899 Senior Engineer Moghadam reiterated the primary concern with the proposed access point was the proximity to the I-15 freeway on-and off-ramps; presented a simulated demonstration model, displaying the traffic flows (which incorporated the traffic information from the applicant's data) with the proposed access provision, specifying the significant traffic problems with vehicles attempting to enter the left-turning lane into the project (relative to the inadequate spacing from the offramp); presented the alternate plan developed by staff which was inclusive of relocation of the driveway access 250 feet to the west, displaying the improved flow of traffic; advised that the benefit of the alternate plan was the provision for a longer distance for vehicles (from either the northbound or southbound offramp) to adequately position their vehicles into the appropriate lane for making a left-turn into the site; provided additional information regarding the improved traffic flow from southbound Front Street due to the configuration of this plan; and relayed that in light of the existing conditions in the area, that the alternate plan provided the most viable solution to the circulation issues. For Commissioner Webster, Senior Engineer Moghadam provided the rationale for the software's depiction of the median modification; clarified the restrictions associated with proposing a feasible circulation plan, noting that the alternate plan took into consideration realistic potential movement of vehicles. For Commissioner Webster, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed that although the applicant offered additional right-of-way provisions. that with the implementation of the alternate plan, that the right-of-way provisions would not be necessary; advised that the future potential project for a possible relocation of the southbound on-ramp and off-ramp could not be considered for this particular project due to the tentative nature of the proposal. For informational purposes, Senior Engineer Moghadam clarified that the software simulation display provision was new, and had been provided only for demonstration purposes, noting that the applicant's traffic data had been implemented into the program. For Commissioner Fahey, Senior Engineer Moghadam provided additiona~ information to orient the Commission to the streets and configurations depicted in the simulated display. With respect to Vice Chairman Mathewson's comments, Senior Engineer Moghadam provided additional information regarding the differential of access to the site with the proposed access point, and the alternate access point, clarifying the impact associated with vehicles exiting the freeway, specifying the aspects of the alternate configuration which would alleviate this impact. With respect to the alternate plan, Parks provided additional information regarding the location of the signals, and the improved queuing with respect to the alternate plan. For Vice Chairman Mathewson, Senior Engineer Moghadam advised that the priority and intent of Caltrans was to avoid freeway congestion noting that the thawing of the street signal (controlled by Caltrans) would be affected by their intent to avoid vehicles backing up on the freeway; relayed that the alternate configuration plan would alleviate traffic congestion from Front Street southbound; noted that the Caltrans standard to maintain a minimum 410 foot distance with respect to spacing of signals was not differentiated by whether the area was urban or rural, noting that Caltrans' preferred spacinc~ was 525 feet. For informational purposes, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed for comparative purposes, that the spacing from the Winchester Road southbound offramp to Jefferson Avenue was 400 feet, and that the spacing from the Rancho California Road southbound offramp to Front Street was 600 feet, noting that this particular project proposed spacing was 160 feet. With respect to Fahey's querying regarding staff developing the alternate plan rather than the applicant, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks provided additional information regarding the applicanrs submitted provisions; clarified that the alternate plan would not need to be the final plan, and that the applicant could propose an alternate configuration as long as the 410 foot spacing was maintained; and noted that staff had agreed with the applicant's data with respect to traffic volumes and motions, and that the concern was regarding the weaving issues, the signal timing, and the inadequate provision for spacing. For Commissioner Fahey, Senior Engineer Moghadam advised that if the alternate plan were implemented, additional traffic analysis would not be necessitated; and for Commissioner Webster, provided additional information regarding the ultimate development of the Western Bypass Connection, and the potential to restrict the left- turning motions with respect to this project. In light of the future circulation plans, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed that the configuration developed by staff would be adequate. Mr. Larry Markham, representing the applicant, advised that with respect to the Conditions, at this point he would solely relay the applicanrs opposition to Condition No. 14 (regarding the requirement to redesign the proposed access road); noted that although the applicant had been diligently working with staff for many months, he was troubled with the timing of the presentation of the alternate plan, relaying that the plan had not been presented to the applicant prior to this meeting; relayed that due to the new material displayed (which the applicant had not had the opportunity to analyze), there was great difficulty in addressing the reconfiguration; noted that the applicant was categorically opposed to the reconfiguration; advised that the applicant had been directed to address the concerns referenced in the October 20, 1997 Caltrans letter; provided additional information with respect to the data included in the letter and the applicanrs efforts to address the issues over the last year; noted that the applicant had additionally submitted a service station application, indicating that that particular site would be adversely impacted by the presented alternate configuration; relayed that the applicant had utilized an alternate computer software package for analysis, as directed by staff; advised that the applicant's proposed configuration would be a more feasible circulation plan in conjunction with the proposed future circulation elements for this padicular area, than staff's configuration; via overheads, specified the proposed ultimate circulation elements with respect to the re-design of the tnterctnange, relaying that the alternate plan (inclusive of a double T-intersection) would most likely preclude the potential proposal for hook on- and off-ramps; with respect to the impact of the southbound offramp issues, noted that the applicant had provided mitigation for that impact, specifying the applicant's offer to dedicate, and/or bond, or construct an additional lane (denoted in the agenda material); requested a copy of the digital 10 information presented by staff in order to analyze the data; for Commissioner Fahey, clarified that the applicant developed their analysis from the information package the City had directed the applicant to utilize; and advised that per past conversations with the City (i.e. the City Manager, Councilman Roberts) the applicant had relayed their willingness to work with the City on the development of the Ultimate Interchange Design, noting that Development Agreements had been submitted. For Commissioner Fahey, Mr. Markham provided additional information regarding the flooding issues, and the environmental impacts (specifying the numerous surveys which had been conducted by the applicant); and relayed that that the project had been conditioned with respect to these impacts. and that the applicant was agreeable to the conditions thereof. For Vice Chairman Mathewson, Mr. Markham clarified the applicant's additional property site, which encompassed portions of the Murrieta Creek bottom, noting that that property would be held aside for an Open Space parcel. In response to Mr. Markham's comments, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed that the data utilized in the simulation model presented by Senior Engineer Moghadam was derived from the John Kain report (submitted by the applicant), and that the volumes that were implemented in each configuration presented were representative of the PM peak hour traffic volumes. In response to Commissioner Fahey. Mr. Markham relayed that the applicant had offered to accommodate the future reconfiguration plans for the 1-15; advised that the applicant's proposed plan would be more feasible with the Ultimate Interchange Revisions than the alternate plan developed by staff; and in response to Commissioner Fahey's querying with respect to postponing this development until the proposed changes for the Ultimate Interchange Design had been specifically identified, relayed that the applicant had been working on this development for two years, and three months. Mr. John Kain, traffic engineer representing the applicant, relayed that although simulation demonstrations could be helpful. that there were variations in the traffic queues that were represented in the display, specifically with respect to the number of vehicles accessing the project site, represented on the two configurations; noted that while he was sure that staff had not intentionally misrepresented the volumes, that variant elements were denoted on the circulation plans; and advised that the key ultimate solution would be to have staff and the applicant work in conjunction with Caltrans' proposed Loop Design for the Ultimate Interchange Design, in order to accommodate a long-term circulation element for this particular area. For clarification purposes with respect to the simulation display, Vice Chairman Mathewson confirmed that staff would not have intentionally misrepresented data. Mr. Samuel Alhadeff, attorney representing the applicant, relayed for the record that the applicant was opposed to Condition No. 83 (requiring the applicant to comply with the requirements of the Caltrans letter dated October 20, 1997); noted that the applicant had been working with staff with respect to this project since 1997, advising that with the added Condition of No. 83, the applicant could have concentrated their efforts on Gaittans standards rather than the expended efforts to work with staff, inclusive of the Plat~Com~vmif~utes/120899 conduction of five traffic studies completed in efforts to address staff concerns, and the holding of numerous meetings with staff, if in the final conclusion, the Caltrans standard was what the applicant was required to adhere to; for the record, reiterated the requirements referenced in the October 20, 1997 Caltrans letter (per agenda material), addressing the bulleted issues, as follows: 1) with respect to the proposed access to Front Street within the close proximity of the I-15 ramps, and the required provision for submittals of acceptable traffic patterns on the City's streets, as weft as the 1-15 ramps, relayed that the proposed plan does comply with the City's General Plan, and the zoning requirements, 2) with respect to the proposed plan's conflict with a plan by the City to upgrade Front Street and the ramps terminating there as weft as the City's proposed Western Bypass, advised that the proposed plan was an interim solution, acknowledging that the Circulation Element would be revised; recommended that the Commission support this proposed plan which would be a viable interim solution until the Ultimate Interchange Plan was developed, noting that staffs plan would not be instrumental in facilitating the proposed future circulation improvements for this particular area, 3) with respect to the proposal being required to propose an alternate access point, reiterated the willingness of the applicant to work with the City with respect to the Ultimate Interchange Design. Mr. Alhadeff relayed that perhaps the reluctance on the part of the City to accept the applicant's proposed plan may have been due to the perception of the applicant's increased property value due to the potential condemnation issues associated with the design of the Ultimate Interchange; reiterated that the applicant had made efforts to work with the City with respect to the Ultimate Interchange Design, submitting Development Agreements; with regard to the simulated configuration presentation, relayed that he was advised that a model could yield different results; referenced the staff report, indicating that staff was of the opinion that the proposed circulation plan would work for the interim condition; indicated that the volumes referred to in the staff report were representative of the trip generation counts at build out; in conclusion, reiterated the applicant's desire to work with the City with respect to the Ultimate Interchange Design, submitting Development Agreements; reiterated that the applicant conducted five traffic studies in order to address the concerns of staff; with respect to Caltrans comments, relayed that the applicant should not be held captive to an existing condition, noting that the project was in compliance with the City' General Plan, Circulation Element, and Zoning requirements; for informational purposes, indicated that he had submitted data with respect to the past legal issues associated with this parcel and the property to the south of this particular project (per supplemental agenda material) regarding issues of access; and advised that it would have been helpful for the applicant to have had access to the simulation model representing staffs alternate configuration plan prior to this evening's meeting. Mr. Paul Eldridge, attorney representing the adjacent property owner, relayed the location of the property of discussion located to the south of the particular project, noting that the property was currently landlocked; relayed that although his clients had expressed no opposition to this particular development plan, the recommendation was that the Comn'fisslon condition the project based on the granting of access to this southern property; acknowledged that there were no legal mandates requiring the Commission to grant this access provision; advised that it should be the goal of any government entity to encourage the most effective and beneficial use of real property, reiterating that his client's property was currently landlocked; specified his client's willingness to work with the applicant to develop an equitable agreement which would 12 PllnComm/minuteslt20899 provide provision of access; cited the Government Code, with respect to rights of access; and implored the Commission to consider conditioning this project regarding access provisions to the property to the south of this particular proposal. Mr. Louis Kashmere, 29115 Front Street, relayed his concern with respect to the adverse traffic and access impacts associated with the particular project; noted the current high volumes of traffic in this area; advised that he would not be in favor of the proposed project until he was assured it would not negatively affect his adjacent property; suggested that the City investigate the rationale for the denial of this particular Tract Map when it was presented to the County, prior to the City's incorporation. Mr. Markham clarified for Mr. Kashmere the current traffic analysis with respect to the updated current traffic volumes; provided additional information regarding the previous submittal of a Tract Map to the County by the previous owners, which had been withdrawn, and not denied; provided additional information regarding the Land Use issues; recommended that the Commission approve this project, as proposed with the adoption of a Negative Declaration, as opposed to the requirement for an environmental impact report based on traffic issues; and in response to Commissioner Fahey's querying as to whether a continuance would aid in the addressing of expressed issues of concern, relayed that the applicant would desire an opportunity to analyze the simulation model configuration presented by staff. In response to Mr. EIdridge's comments, Mr. Robert Edmunds, attorney representing the applicant, provided a detailed overview of the issues associated with the access issues associated with the adjacent property (additional information provided in the supplemental agenda material with respect to the legal issues associated with the matter), noting that the legal issues of access were not in legal dispute, relaying that the property was purchased with the knowledge that the parcels were landlocked, specifying the options that were available to the owners; and recommended that the Commission let the issue be resolved in the marketplace. Attorney Curley provided additional information regarding the Commission's power to condition the project with respect to the provisions of access to the adjacent property, if that was its desire. Senior Engineer Moghadam relayed that staff would readily comply with the applicant's desire for the information related to the simulation model; reiterated that the model was solely for the purpose of a demonstration exhibit; and advised that staff did not base their analysis on the simulated model program, but utilized it as a mode of displaying their concerns and the alternate configuration plan. With respect to Senior Engineer Moghadam's comments, Mr. Alhadeff advised that these types of comments are what the applicant has had to deal with during the last few months. The Commissioner's concludinq remarks were. as follows: In light of the applicant's desire to review staff's traffic configuration, and the submittal of a plethora of supplemental agenda material which staff and the Commission had not had an opportunity to review, Vice Chairman Mathewson queried the Commission with 13 PianComfft/rninutes/120899 respect to continuing the matter; and relayed that he could not make an informed decision at this point. In concurrence with continuing the matter, Commissioner Fahey relayed that she could not support a configuration that did not take into account the Ultimate Interchange Design and the future potential circulation elements; requested that staff address the landlocked property located to the south of this particular proposal with respect to the General Plan; and commended staff for their diligent efforts associated with the presentation of the simulation model, which visually clarified the concerns of staff. Deputy Director of Public Works Parks advised that the applicant had a right to have this project considered without the potential freeway and potential circulation revisions due to the fact that there was no approved study, no determined alignment or designated funding for the potential projects; and relayed that if the applicant opted to wait until there was a determined alignment, and designated funding, then at that point these issues could be considered Commissioner Fahey relayed that she could not support either presented configuration plan due to the variables that had not been adequately addressed. For Commissioner Webster, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed that the PSR could potentially be complete in a year, and that funding would then need to be addressed. In response to Commissioner Webster's querying, Attorney Curley advised that if the PSR were complete, the Commission could consider the elements addressed. For Commissioner Webster, Planning Manager Ubnoske relayed that although she recalled the past discussions with the applicant regarding a Development Agreement, that neither staff nor the applicant had pursued that specific issue. Due to the unresolved short-term and long-term traffic concerns, Commissioner Webster recommended that in the interim period of continuance that there be an offer on the applicant's behalf to pursue the Development Agreement in order to address future Ultimate Improvements, rather than the City requiring that the issues be addressed; suggested that with the pursuit of the Development Agreement, that the applicant's proposed plan be approved, adding a Condition requiring provisions of a turn-around at the temporary west end of 79 South, and if need be that the project be conditioned to restrict a certain portion of the properly until the Ultimate Interchange Design was completed; relayed that his recommendation would delete Condition No. 14; with respect to Condition No. 83, concurred with the applicant on deleting the condition, unless staff recommended maintaining the requirements, and ignoring the findings; with respect to the access issues related to the property located south of this particular project, recommended that staff and Counsel make a recommendation concerning that issue. Planning Manager Ubnoske relayed that the matter could be continued to the January 19, 2000 meeting. 14 PlanCornm/minutesf120899 MOTION: Commissioner Fahey moved to continue the matter to the January 19, 2000 Planning Commission meeting. Commissioner Webster seconded the motion and voice vote reflected approval with the exceDtion of Chairman Guerriero who abstained. PLANNING MANAGER'S REPORT Planning Manager Ubnoske noted the provision of additional traffic data in the staff reports due to the expressed concern of the Commission; and queried the Commission as to the detail of traffic data desired. Commissioner Webster relayed that the Commission had relayed to Senior Planner Fagan that the traffic data's attached executive summary would be sufficient provision of data. COMMISSIONER REPORTS For Commissioner Webster, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed that the current Caltrans project on the 1-15 freeway was to improve the condition of the inside edges of the freeway. With respect to Commissioner Webster's querying regarding the Meadowview Gold Course Application, Senior Planner Fagan provided additional information regarding the Director's Hearing which requested the applicant's provision of additional information, relaying that the applicant had not yet responded. C, For informational purposes, Commissioner Webster provided copies of an article regarding planning issues, For Vice Chairman Mathewson, Planning Manager Ubnoske relayed that although there had been discussions regarding updating the Land Use Element, that staff had not received direction from the City Council at this time. With respect Vice Chairman Mathewson's querying with respect to the proposal related to the Ultramar Gas Station use, Planning Manager Ubnoske relayed that that if the alcohol permit was not issued, the applicant may not pursue the development plan; Senior Planner Fagan relayed that if this project was to go forward it would not be required to implement a Park and Ride facility; and advised that staff would present additional information regarding that issue at a future point in time. Vice Chairman Mathewson relayed that at the area near the Cinema at the Promenade Mall, in the proximity area of the Farell's site, that there was a valet canopy that impeded pedestrian access. Senior Planner Fagan relayed that staff would contact Forest City, requesting the relocation of the canopy, For Vice Chairman Mathewson, with respect to the inadequate screening of the Power Center from the line of sight from Margarita Road, Senior Planner Fagan 15 PlanComrrdminutesl120899 relayed that when the applicant was completed with the screening application, staff would address the issue and provide an update to the Commission. Commissioner Fahey relayed that on the Meadowview side of the Cinema (at the Promenade Mall site) that the landscaping had been adversely impacted by pedestrian travel, requesting that staff address the issue with Forest City. ADJOURNMENT At 9:11 P.M. Vice Chairman Mathewson formally adjourned this meeting to Wednesday, December 15, 1999 at 6:00 P.M., in the City Council Chambers, 43200 Business Park Drive, Temecula.

ADOPT A Resolution entitled: PC RESOLUTION NO. 2000- A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF TEMECULA APPROVING PLANNING APPLICATION NO. PA99-0345, A DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION OF A 35,224 SQUARE-FOOT, 101- ROOM OR 59,950 SQUARE-FOOT, 137-ROOM HOLIDAY INN HOTEL ON 3,37 ACRES LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF JEFFERSON AVENUE, APPROXIMATELY 1,000 FEET NORTH OF RANCHO CALIFORNIA ROAD, AND ALSO IDENTIFIED AS PORTIONS OF PARCEL 1, 2, 3 & 6 OF PARCEL MAP 23882 ADOPT a Notice of Exemption for Planning Application No. PA99-0345 pursuant to Section 15332 of the CEQA Guidelines. BACKGROUND The Holiday Inn proposal was originally presented and considered by the Planning Commission on December 15, 1999. It was continued to the meeting of January 5, 2000, and then to the meeting of January 19, 2000, in order to provide sufficient time for the applicant to prepare plans for a proposed first phase of the project, as well as to address concerns and issues raised by the Commission at the December 15th hearing. The December 15th staff report, included herein as Attachment 2, addresses the potential ultimate 137-room project and contains the full discussion of that proposal and the FAR incentive issues. This supplemental report contrasts the first and second phases and addresses the issues raised by the Commission at the December 15th F:\DEPTSXPLANNING\D P\99-0345 Holiday Inn~345PA99.Holiday Inn 1-19 Staff Report,doc meeting. The attached Resolution and Conditions of Approval have been revised to include both phases and all issues. The first phase of the Holiday Inn project would consist of 101 rooms, or 36 less rooms than the potential ultimate 137-room proposal. If the first phase is successful and achieves the expected occupancy level, then the additional rooms would likely be constructed in about two years time. For our purposes, however, the first phase must be considered as if it were the final project because there are no guarantees that the hotel would be expanded beyond the initial 101 rooms. Following are the project statistics for both the first phase and the overall project. FIRST PHASE PROJECT STATISTICS: Site Area: Building Area: 146,797 sq. ~. (3.37 acres) 35,224 sq. ft.

Thus the length of the structure would be shortened by this amount and the vacated area would be landscaped with turf, trees and shrubs. All of the parking, circulation and other site improvements associated with the ultimate project would be installed in this first phase. The shortened northerly extension of the building would be treated architecturally in the same manner as the ultimate project with the exception that there would be one rather than two of the gabled roof and column elements on each side of this portion of the structure. This is because the split between the first and second phase would occur just to the inboard side of the most northerly of these features. The additional elements would be constructed if and when the project is expanded to the full 137 rooms. The northerly "end" elevation from which the building would be extended in the second phase is fully roofed and articulated in the same fashion as the ultimate project. Since the basic colors are the same for both the first and second phase, the Commission noted at the December 15th meeting that the applicant would not need to prepare additional colored exhibits. Thus, all of the colored exhibits are of the ultimate 137-room project. The reduction in rooms and building area also obviously affects the project statistics. There is a reduction in lot coverage, an increase in landscape percentage, a more generous parking ratio, and a decrease in Floor Area Ratio. The 0.24 FAR for the first phase in fact falls below the 0.30 target FAR specified in the Development Code, and thus there is no need to readdress, or in the case of the economic and fiscal factors, to recalculate the FAR incentive factors. The FAR issue is discussed in detail in the attached December 15t" staff report. ISSUES RAISED BY THE COMMISSION AT THE DECEMBER 15th MEETING The Commission noted the following concerns or issues at the December 15th hearing, some of which relate to the request for an increase in the FAR for the 137-room proposal. 1. A discrepancy was noted between the plant quantities specified in the Landscape Plan legend versus those actually shown on the plan. The Landscape Plan now reflects consistent quantities on the plan and in the legend. 2. Consideration of denser planting and/or the incorporation of an additional type of evergreen tree along the project's boundary with the freeway, One type of deciduous tree, the Pistacia Chinensis, is being used along the easterly boundary. The project Landscape Architect believes it would be desirable to retain at least this one deciduous type of tree in order to provide seasonal interest and color F:\DEPTS\PLANNING\D P\99-0345 Holiday lnn~345PA99.Holiday Inn I-19 Staff Report.doc 3 along that edge. He also believes that the width of the planting space and the combination of trees and shrubs along the property boundary, as well as the planting on the opposite side of the parking lot adjacent to the building, provides a more than generous landscape program adjoining the freeway. The City Landscape Architect concurs that the location, number and selection of trees and shrubs will eventually provide an attractive and adequately dense landscape screen. If the Commission's concern is with the initial impact of the plantings, he suggested that perhaps the 15 gallon trees along the easterly side could be increased to 24" box. He also noted, however, that the existing trees in the freeway right-of-way provide an immediate landscape affect. The project Landscape Architect will be present at the hearing to address any of the Commission's questions or concerns regarding the landscape program. 3. Consideration of landscape planting along the face of the retaining wall abutting the freeway right-of-way in order to deter graffiti. The applicant is presently attempting to obtain an encroachment permit from Caltrans in order to allow grading within the freeway right-of-way. If this is successful as expected, then there will be no need for a retaining wall. However, a Condition of Approval has also been included which will require a planting strip or planting pockets for spreading vines if a retaining wall is necessary. 4. The provision of additional details regarding the articulation of the wall surfaces. The plans for the first phase include details regarding the vertical offsets defined by the outer edges of the windows at the second and third levels. These areas will be recessed 4.5 inches from the walls on either side. Also, the horizontal wainscot element dividing the first floor from the higher levels is raised eight (8) inches from the wall surface below and 3.5 inches from the wall surface above this element. The vertical articulation of the wall surfaces had previously been indicated at 6 inches (please see Attachment 7). Other than the gabled roof and column features, these vertical offsets will provide the basic and most visible wall articulation and shadow lines for the full height of the building, and thus in staffs judgment the depth of these offsets are of paramount importance to the "substance" of the building and the overall design impact of the project. Staff does not know what the magic number is for the window offsets, but 4.5" would appear at best to be the absolute minimum to provide the depth and shadow lines that will provide interest and substance to the extensive wall surfaces. As a result, we have asked the applicant to support this proposal at the Commission hearing with a rendering or other graphic representation perhaps, and/or with a photograph of another project using a similar offset. F:\DEPTS~PLANNING\D P\99-0345 Holiday lnnx345PA99.Holiday Inn 1-19 Staff Report.doc 4 If the presentation is unconvincing, we are of the opinion that these vertical offsets should be no less than 6" as previously proposed. Any modification to the 4.5" proposal would have to be added by the Commission as a Condition of Approval. 5. The provision of additional architectural enhancements on the longer westerly and easterly elevations, as well as the northerly elevation; to include the consideration of more offsets or a contrasting material, and in recognition of the requirements of the Design Guidelines to create a "base, middle and top" to the building. A used thin-brick material has been added to the base of each column element to a height of 30 inches in order to align horizontally with the bottom edge of the first floor windows. The brick will also be used for the arched elements over the first floor windows. These arched elements were previously proposed as "plant-ons" formed with foam and covered with stucco. These brick enhancements, called out as a "desert sand" color to blend with the basic building colors, are indicated on the first phase elevations only. A Condition of Approval has been included which will require them to be used in the same fashion on the 137-room proposal as well. The applicant believes that the addition of the brick enhancements will reinforce the "base" of the building, which is also emphasized by the horizontal wainscot element and the contrast in vertical articulation between the first floor and higher "middle" portion of the structure (the vertical articulation is discussed under the previous item), The applicant is of the opinion that the "top" of the building is adequately articulated by the use of a full tile roof and the cornice detail used at all the eaves and at the top of the column elements. A sample of the thin-brick material will be available for the Commission's inspection at the hearing. The applicant has also prepared a pencil rendering of the easterly elevation of the structure in order to provide the Commission with a more realistic impression of the appearance of the building from the freeway. The rendering will be available at the hearing as well. Concern with the compatibility of the flat concrete tile used on the main roof versus the raised rib barrel metal roof used on the entrance canopy. The applicant will provide a sample of the metal roof material at the upcoming hearing (it was not available at the December 15th hearing). The metal roof is the same color as the tile roofing, and staff is of the opinion that the variation in materials will provide an appropriate and pleasing contrast to the main roof, However, the applicant has stated that they would be willing to replace the metal roof with a tile roof to match the main structure if that is the Commission's desire. Provision for constructing the northerly access to its full width by the time the project is completed. Rosa's Caf~, the project responsible for improving the balance of the northerly access drive, is expected to begin construction in the near future, and thus this drive F:\DEPTS\PLANNING\D P\994)345 Holiday lnn~345PA99.Holiday Inn 1 - 19 Staff Report.doc 5 should be fully improved by the time the Holiday Inn project is complete. The applicant is expected to have specific information on the timing of the Rosa's Caf~ project by the time of the Commission hearing. Furthermore, the applicant's traffic engineer is reviewing the traffic information to determine what the affect would be if the Holiday Inn did not have the northerly access point, but only the main entry drive. There is a thought that the absence of this access point may not be critical to the level of service or a traffic safety issue since the Holiday Inn project is obligated to construct a median which will disallow left turns onto Jefferson Avenue. The provision of details regarding the applicant's commitment to provide meeting space at low or no cost to non-profit service and charitable organizations in support of their request for an increase in the FAR. The applicant has prepared a specific proposal, included herein as Attachment 6, which provides that meeting space will be made available to charitable and non-profit service groups for up to four days a month at 30% of the standard rate; a rate that will allow the Holiday Inn to recover costs only. Although the City has no way to enforce such provisions, it has been included in the official documentation as a Condition of Approval and the applicant has stated they are committed and in fact happy to provide this service to the community; a service which is not uncommon in the hotel industry. The applicant's willingness to forgo a freestanding sign in favor of a wall sign for freeway identification. Properties with freeway frontage are allowed either an individual freeway-oriented freestanding sign or a freeway-oriented wall sign, but not both. However, if an individual freestanding sign is used at the freeway, an individual freestanding sign cannot be used along the property's street frontage, which in this case is Jefferson Avenue. The exception is if three or more adjacent properties combine into a single freeway-oriented freestanding sign, then they may each also have an individual freestanding sign at their street frontage. Although the applicant has indicated they would prefer to use a wall sign rather than a freestanding sign for freeway identification, they do not want to commit to a sign program at this juncture. There is a concern with achieving visibility to northbound freeway traffic due to the Rancho California Road overpass. According to the applicant, in order to achieve the desired visibility they may have to combine with adjacent uses into a multi-tenant sign located as far to the south as possible. It is staffs opinion that due to the location of the building in relationship to the street, Holiday Inn will require a monument sign at the main entry off Jefferson Avenue. In that case, they could not have an individual freeway-oriented freestanding sign, but would have to combine into a single, multi-tenant sign. Also, regardless of what approach they decide to take, any proposal would have to comply with the City's sign standards.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF TEMECULA DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. That the above recitations are true and correct and are hereby incorporated by reference. Section 2. Findings. The Planning Commission, in conditionally approving Planning Application No. PA99-0345 (Development Plan) hereby makes the following findings as required by Section 17.05.010.F of the Temecula Municipal Code: A. The proposal is consistent with the land use designation and policies reflected for HT Highway Tourist development in the City of Temecula General Plan, and the standards for HT Highway Tourist development contained in the City's Development Code. The site is therefore properly planned and zoned and found to be physically suitable for the type and density of development proposed. The project as conditioned is also consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local ordinance, including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the CityWide Design Guidelines, and fire and building codes. F:\DEPTS\PLANNING\D P\99~)345 Holiday lnnx345PA99.Holiday Inn ]-I 9 StaffReport.doc 9 B. The overall design of both the first and second phase of the project, including the site, building, parking, circulation, entry features and other associated site improvements, is consistent with and intended to protect the health and safety of those working in and around the site. The project has been reviewed for and as conditioned has been found to be consistent with all applicable policies, guidelines, standards and regulations intended to ensure that the development will be constructed and function in a manner consistent with the public health, safety and welfare. Furthermore it has been found that the project provides fiscal, economic and other community benefits and enhanced design features consistent with the FAR incentive categories identified in the Development Code (TMC 17.08.050A2), which support the requested increase in FAR from 0.30 to 0.41 for the 59,950 square foot, 137-room second phase of the project. C. The design of the proposed improvements is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. There is no fish, wildlife or habitat on the project site, and the project will not affect any fish, wildlife or habitat off-site. The property is an in-fill site, surrounded by development and previously graded. The project will therefore not individually or cumulatively have an adverse effect on wildlife resources, as defined in Section 711.2 of the Fish and Game Code. Section 3, Environmental Compliance. A Notice of Exemption has been adopted for Planning Application No. PA99-0345 per the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15061 and 15332. These Sections allow exemptions for in-fill development projects that meet certain prescribed criteria. The subject site complies with these criteria and therefore the exemption can be applied to this project. Section 4. Conditions. That the City of Temecula Planning Commission hereby conditionally approves Planning Application No. PA99-0345 (Development Plan) for the design, construction and operation of a 35,224 square foot, 101-room or 59,950 square foot, 137-room Holiday Inn hotel on 3.37 acres located on the east side of Jefferson Avenue, approximately 1,000 feet north of Rancho California Road, and also identified as portions of Parcel 1, 2, 3 & 6 of Parcel Map 23882, subject to the project specific conditions set forth in Exhibit A, attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference.

The project site is a flag-shaped lot that has the bulk of the property sitting back from the street frontage, adjoining the I-15 Freeway, with a driveway extending westerly between two vacant parcels to Jefferson Avenue. The driveway is intended as a common access point to serve the Holiday Inn as well as surrounding properties, According to the applicant, the Holiday Inn Express is a high quality, limited-service, upper mid- market franchise hotel. It is expected to serve both the travelling public as well as the longer-term visitor. It features an intedor-con'idor design, larger public areas and hallways, several larger suites for families, an extended (continental) breakfast / leisure room, a gym, guest laundry facilities, a small business center (each room will also have high speed internet access), a meeting room, a swimming pool, and a separate, large exterior patio. Being limited-service, it does not feature a restaurant or a lounge. The project meets or exceeds all of the basic standards called for in the Development Code for Highway Tourist commercial development with the exception of the Floor Area Ratio (FAR). The target FAR for this zone is 0.30, whereas the proposed FAR is 0.41 .The Planning Commission may grant an increase in FAR beyond the 0.30 target, up to a maximum FAR of 1.0, based on a determination of the extent to which the project provides exceptional community or public benefits or aspects consistent with at least one of three incentive categories outlined in the Development Code, This issue is discussed ~ater in this repo~ under "FAR ~ncentives." R:\Griffins\345PA99.Holiciay Inn Staff Report.doc 2 BACKGROUND A pre-application meeting was held with the applicant on July 1, 1999. The formal application was submitted on September 1, 1999, and the Design Review Committee subsequently reviewed the plans on September 23, 1999. The project was deemed complete on November 17, 1999. ANALYSIS Site Desian The 3-story, L-shaped building is situated in a north-south direction on the central portion of the site, between the 1-15 Freeway and two vacant parcels fronting Jefferson Avenue. A swimming pool adjoins the west side of the building, and a large open patio occupies the inside portion of the "L" on the east side of the building. Circulation aisles, parking spaces and landscaping encircle the building and occupy the balance of the property. A canopied arrival point and the lobby entrance are located at the south end of the structure, directly off the main entry ddve. The main vehicular access point off Jefferson Avenue is defined by special entry features, a landscaped median, and perimeter landscaping on both sides of the full length of the drive. The hotel would have right/left-in, right-out only access off Jefferson from the main entry drive, as well as access to a signalized intersection off another private drive to the north that aligns with Del Rio Road on the opposite side of Jefferson Avenue. The ultimate plan shows an additional right-in, right-out only access point to the south. This sedes of pdvate ddves is intended to eventually serve all seven parcels comprising this Highway Tourist district. With the exception of the Holiday Inn proposal and the previously approved but yet to constructed Rosa's Caf~ abutting the northwest portion of the hotel property, none of the other five vacant parcels within this district have approved plans. Loading activity will mainly consist of small vans rather than larger trucks and therefore will be accommodated at one location on the easterly side of the building, and also under the canopied main entrance. Trash will be accommodated within an enclosure at the far north end of the property. Architecture As noted above, the building is a 45-foot high, 3-story, L-shaped structure. The main lobby entrance and most heavily articulated portion of the structure is at the southwest corner of the building. This portion of the structure features three changes in wall plane, hipped and gabled roof elements and column features surrounding large arched windows, as well as a large arched canopy extending out over the vehicular arrival point. The main structure is fully roofed with fiat concrete roof tiles, whereas the canopy has a raised rib barrel roof colored to match. There will be no exposed roof equipment or views of fiat, unadomed roof surfaces. All of the roof eaves, column and canopy elements feature an architectural cornice detail as well. The gabled roof and column elements featured at the main entrance are duplicated at two locations esch along the !en'~th of the westerly and easteft'/building elevations. T,hesa arc; substantial elements with two changes in wall plane as well as an arched third story window to simulate the more elaborate window treatment at the main entry. In addition to these featured elements of the building, a raised horizontal wainscot band is provided to create a base to the building between the first and higher levels, and the area extending between the first and third R:',Gdffins\345PA99.Holiday Inn Staff Report.doc 3 levels at a width equal to the outer edges of the windows is recessed six inches to provide additional vertical articulation. The windows at the first level, which are essentially flush with the surface of the wall, are enhanced at their top edge with raised arched elements. Of particular concern to staff has been the proposal to provide individual air conditioning units for each of the rooms. This is apparently a more effective, as well more economical way, to provide individualized air conditioning to each room, but it presents a design challenge in treating the "exposed" units below each window. In this instance, the units will be flush with the exterior wall surface of the building, with the bulk of the unit extending into the rooms themselves. They are also using a finely Iouvered grille that will be painted to match and largely blend with the exterior wall surfaces. Finally, a customized architectural metal grille will be placed over the functioning air conditioning grille in order to help tie the units into the overall detailing of the building design. The colors and materials for the project all exhibit muted earth tones. The main body of the building above the first story and including the wainscot element will feature the lightest color, termed La Habra, with the first story and column elements featuring a somewhat darker color called Villa. The cornices and architectural air conditioning grilles will be painted white. The color of the roof tiles is termed Weathered Terra Cotta Gold, which is the same color that will be featured on the metal roof of the canopy ever main arrival point. Landscapin~ The Landscape Plan reflects 27% landscape planting, or 7% more than the 20% required by Code. This figure excludes the "hardscape" elements consisting of the pool area, separate exterior patio and the decorative pedestrian walks. Significant areas of landscape planting and decorative hardscape are provided adjacent to the east and west sides of the building, and in and around the canopied lobby entrance as well. The north, west and east perimeters of the main portion of the property also feature significant landscape planting at least twice the minimum five (5) foot width called for by the Code. The landscaping interior to the parking areas, consisting of aisle-end planters, landscape fingers and a landscape strip provided in the northerly parking lot, also meet or exceed City requirements. Worthy of special note is the main vehicular access point and entry drive. Large landscape planters with low decorative walls and special landscape planting are located on both sides of the intersection with Jefferson Avenue. This entry point is further enhanced with decorative paving and a landscaped median which extends some 130 feet up the length of the driveway. The boundaries of the drive also feature pedestrian walks and 5-foot wide landscaped easements on both sides (the use of easements at these locations will allow the landscaping to also be incorporated into the landscaping program of the adjacent vacant parcels when they develop). A 5-foot wide strip of landscaping will also be provided on the far south side of the circulation drive opposite the hotel structure. The view of the project from the freeway at one of our major gateways is of particular concern to staff. As alluded to above, the eastedy boundary of the property adjoining the freeway right-of-way has been provided with a landscape planter over 10 feet in width, which is more than twice what the Code requires. This area has been proposed for, and further conditioned to provide dense s~reen planting ,,,,h higher 'vertical spec;men ~--- c~usters in or:er t,: soften - ~ ~h,s ~nu ennar, ce boundary. There currently exists in the abutting freeway right-of-way several large trees and shrubs which will provide an immediate effect as the on-site landscaping matures. R:\Griffins\345PA99.Holiday Inn Staff Report.doc 4 Floor Area Ratio (FAR) Incentives The Planning Commission may consider an increase in the FAR, from the target FAR of 0.30, up to a maximum FAR of 1.0, based on the degree to which the project meets the City's performance standards, and provided the project meets at least one of three incentive categories described in Section 17.08.050 of the Development Code. The categories include: (1) uses which provide outstanding employment, fiscal, social and economic benefits, (2) projects which exhibit exceptional architectural and landscape design, and (3) projects which provide public facilities beyond the norm. In support of the request, the applicant has submitted information which identifies factors in all three incentive categories (please see attached letter). The information can be summarized as follows: Employment, fiscal and economic · The creation of 63 permanent jobs with an estimated average annual payroll of $560,000. The majority of the employees would be hired locally, according to the applicant. Estimated annual tax revenues to the City of Temecula of over $240,000, including $235,000 in transit occupancy taxes (TOT), $1,000 in sales taxes (Note: the City's share of the sales taxes is about 13% of the $7,600 total amount mentioned in their letter), and $5,376 in property taxes (Note: the City's share of the property taxes is about 6% of the $96,000 mentioned in their letter). · Estimated annual expenditures of $1.0 million by guests in local restaurants, shopping and entertainment facilities. · Estimated annual expenditures by the hotel of $178,000 for local support services and supplies. Architectural and landscape desion One of the examples of exceptional architectural and landscape design listed in the Development Code is "landscaped entry features." As described above, this proposal includes a significant landscaped entry treatment involving corner entry features adjacent to Jefferson Avenue, and a landscaped median extending nearly the full length of the main entry drive. The applicant has also pointed out several ways in which they believe the project responds to the City's performance standards. These include the use of creative entry treatments, vadety of window shapes. varying building shapes. the use of a variety of complementary colors and materials, and so on. Public facilities One of the examples listed in the Development Code under the public facilities category is "the provision of community meeting centers." The Holiday Inn will have a 500 sc~uare foot conference room as well as over 1,000 square feet in the great room that will be available for meetings. While perhaps not meeting the definition of a "meeting center", these facilities will provide both business and non-business meeting space within the community, and will be made available to non-profit service or charitable organizations at little or no cost, according to the applicant. R:\Griffins\345PA99.Holiday Inn Staff Report.doc 5 The applicant also points out the quality and facilities offered by the hotel, the City's need for such a hotel and the fact that the project will be responsible for the construction of a median in Jefferson Avenue. Based on these community benefits, staff believes the requested increase in FAR from 0.30 to 0.41 appears to be cleady supportable. Not only will the Holiday Inn create jobs and generate significant revenues for the City and local businesses, but in our judgment, the project will also help support the revitalization of Old Town Temecula, and hopefully spur additional quality development and redevelopment along the Jefferson Avenue corridor. It will further provide attractive, convenient accommodations for our guests and visitors. Traffic and Public Facilities The Public Works Department has reviewed the traffic report for the project and determined that the tdps generated by this proposal will not exceed the trips anticipated by the Circulation Element for this site. The project's Floor Area Ratio (FAR) falls within the range of the average building intensity anticipated under the odginal traffic and public facilities analysis for the General Plan. The applicant will be required to construct a median and deceleration Pane on Jefferson Avenue and also pay traffic and development impact fees as conditions of approval in order to address impacts associated with the traffic or other demands on public facilities occasioned by the project. Please see attached for a copy of the Opening Year Conditions and Conclusions sections of the focused Traffic Study done for the project. In essence the Study shows that with or without the project, the intersection of Jefferson Avenue and Rancho California Road will operate at LOS "D" in the AM and LOS "F" in the PM. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION It is anticipated that a Notice of Exemption will be filed for Planning Application No. PA99-0345 per the Califomia Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, Section 15061 and 15332. it is found pursuant to Section 15061 that the project is exempt as a categorical exemption pursuant to Section 15332, and that the application of that exemption is not barred by one of the exceptions set forth in Section 15300.2. Section 15332 applies to in-fill development projects on sites that are less than five (5) acres and substantially surrounded by urban uses; that are consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning; that have no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species; and that can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services. The Holiday Inn proposal meets all of the cdteria for in-fill development, and therefore the project is eligible for a CEQA exemption pursuant to Sections 15061 and 15332 of the CEQA Guidelines. GENERAL PLAN AND ZONING CONSISTENCY The project is consistent with the HT Highway/Tourist commercial land use designation and zone applicable to the property in the Temecula General Plan and Development Code. Upon approval of the Development Plan as conditioned, the project will meet all of the standards and guidelines R:\Gdffins\345PA99.Holiday Inn Staff Report.cloc 6 prescribed for Highway/Tourist commercial development in the Development Code and Design Guidelines. SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS The project has been determined by staff to be consistent with applicable City policies, standards and guidelines, and compatible with the nature and quality of surrounding development. Staff is supporting the requested increase in the FAR (from 0.30 to 0.41 ) based on the project's fiscal, economic and other benefits to the City and its residents, as well as its attractive design qualities and features. We are therefore recommending conditional approval of PA99-0345 based on the following findings. RECOMMENDED FINDINGS The proposal is consistent with the land use designation and policies reflected for (HT) Highway/Tourist development in the City of Temecula General Plan, and the standards for HT HighwayFFoudst commercial development contained in the City's Development Code. The site is therefore propedy planned and zoned and found to be physically suitable for the type and intensity of development proposed. The project as conditioned is also consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local ordinance, including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEEQA), the City-Wide Design Guidelines, and fire and building codes. The overall design of the project, including the site, building, parking, circulation, entry features and other associated site improvements, is consistent with and intended to protect the health and safety of those working in and around the site. The project has been reviewed for, and as conditioned has been found to be consistent with, all applicable policies, guidelines, standards and regulations intended to ensure that the development will be constructed and function in a manner consistent with the public health, safety and welfare. Furthermore it has been found that the project provides fiscal, economic and other community benefits and enhanced design features consistent with the FAR incentive categories identified in the Development Code (TMC 17.08.050A2), which support the requested increase in FAR from 0.30 to 0.41. The design of the proposed improvements is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. There is no fish, wildlife or habitat on the project site, and the project will not affect any fish, wildlife or habitat off-site. The property is an in-fill site, surrounded by development and previously graded. The project will therefore not individually or cumulatively have an adverse effect on wildlife resources, as defined in Section 711.2 of the Fish and Game Code.

SUITE 204. NORCO. CALIFORNIA 92860-2961 (909) 371-2057 FAX (909) 371-5924 To~ Honorable Chairman and Members City of Temecula Planning Commission 43200 Business Park Drive Temecula. CA. 92589-9033 November 29, I999 Re: PA 9%0345 The following letter has been prepared to help outline the benefits and amenities our project has to offer the city, and community.. We understand that in order to increase the Floor Area Ratio (FAR) certain requirements and amenities need to be provided. Section 17.08.050 of the City of Temecula Development Code outlines the three factors that can be considered by the Planning Commission in granting an increase in the FAR. These factors are: 1.The project includes uses which provide outstanding and exceptional benefits to the city with respect to the employment, fiscal. social, and economic needs of the community 2. The project provides exceptional architectural and landscapes design amenities which reflect an attractive image and character for the city and 3. The project provides enhanced public facilities that are needed by the cit3', beyond those required mitigation impact measures. In order to address the first of the three considerations for approving an increase in FAR several points have been outlined to demonstrate the benefits this project will bring to the City of Temecula. Points 2 and 6 are critical to the developer and the investors of this project from a hotel performance and investment cost stand-point. 1. JOB CREATION: The 137-room project stands to create approximately 63 jobs with an anticipated average payroll over 10 years of $558,000.00 annually within the Ci~' of Temecula. Should the FAR not be approved and a smaller hotel be constructed the number of jobs would reduce to approximately 48 and the payroll to $421.000.00. The net result would reduce payroll by an estimated $I .37 million over a 10 year period. the employees heine hired tbm within the Ciw of Ternecula. In addition over 100 construction-related jobs, either hired directly by the general contractor of this project or through sub-contractors. would be created during the estimated 6-month construction period of the hotel. 2. HIGH OUALITY UPPER MID-NIARKET FRANCHISE: Holiday Inn Express is a high quality. tried and tested upper mid-market franchise. Its strict development guidelines require a extended complimentary breakfast, leisure room. minimum 5 feet ,,vide inside corridors. a swimming pool. guest laundry. facilities. meeting rooms. and enlarged public areas. A reduction in an>' of these design criteria will certainb' three the project to reduce the quality. of its t~anchise to an economy brand such as Travelodge or Days Inn. The develooers are not desirous of developin.o a economv motel. however. it w'ould not serve the best interest of the City of Temecula since several economv motels alreadv exist in the city. 3. INCREASED OCCUPANCY. SALES, AND PROPERTY TAXES: A detailed market feasibility, study for the Holiday Inn Express project has been conducted. Based on the report there are considerable tax benefits to The Ci.ty of Temecuta as a result ofapproving the 137-room project. Occupancy and average room rate assumptions are summarized below and are detailed in the attached spread sheet. The Holiday Inn Express based on its location, design, facilities. amenities. franchise brand recognition and powerful reservation system was projected to achieve a first year occupancy rate of 68.48 percent. with a stabilized occupancy of 73.60 percent in its third year. Average room rates were projected based on an actual average increase in room rates of 6.94 percent annually achieved by Temecula hotels clver the past 6 years. The project will achieve an average room rate of $74.19 in its first year and increases were conservatively limited to 4 percent within years 2 and 3, and at only 2 percent thereafter. In summary.. an approval in the FAR variance will allow' the following estimated 10 year average in tax collection to the City. of Temecula. Transient Occupancy Taxes $235.000.00 armually "or" 52.35 million over 10 years Sales Tax Collections $ 7,600.00 annually "or" $76.6 thousand over 10 yeats Property Tax collections S 96,000.00 annually "or" S960 thousand over 10 years A total of $3.38 million dollars over 10 vears in tax collections are estimated to be generated for the Citv of Temecula. 4. SECONDARY NON-HOTEL REVENUES TO TEB, IECULA AREA BUSINESSES: The Holiday Inn Express is a limited-sen'ice hotel. limited in that it does not provide a full service restaurant and lounge on site. This limited aspect allows hotel guests to share their expendable dollars ,,~ith local area restaurants. lounges. shopping and entertainment facilities. It is a well-known industry. fact that the tZy'pical hotel guest spends approximately $20.00 to $30.00 in other non-hotel related activities each day of their stay. Based on a stabilized occupancy of 73.60 percent. 36.804 rooms would be sold annuall.~. The average persons per room are estimated at an average of 1.4. for a total of 1,526 guests that would stay at the Holiday [rm Express annually. The ~uests exvendin~ an average ofiust $20.00 ver day would equate to an estimated $I.030.513.00 armuallv or $10.3 million over 10 years in non-hotel related revenues to local businesses in Temecula. 5. LOCAL AREA HOTEL SUPPORT RELATED BUSINESS: In terms of local area support services, the hotel would launder its own linens and towels, landscaping is generally contracted to a local maintenance companies strictly from an expertise and cost benefit point of view. The hotel will also generate considerable supply purchases from local markets be it breakfast supplies, soaps. tissue paper, other day to day guest supplies, property maintenance and management needs. It is estimated that the project will generate on an average over I0 years the following revenues to local area companies: Brealct~.st ~bod supplies $ 59.000.00 annually Guest room / Cleaning supplies $ 69.000.00 annually Maintenance / Printing /Misc. $ 50.000.00 annually Total S ! 78.000.00 annual!,x "or"l. "8 m ill/n o'.zr ! O2,'ezrs 6. DEVELOPERS LAND COST CONSTRAINTS: Cost and a reasonable retarn on investment. as with any development. is a critical factor. The cost of the land base of $I.4 million and the overall project development cost of $9.2 million has to be justified to the investors, providing them with reasonable return on investment. The type of facility. and its franchise dictate the average room rates and the occupancy a hotel would secure. For mid size hotels the land cost must be based on $10,000.00 per room. In tD'ing to achieve a minimal FAR. the developers have purchased 3.4 Acres from Cortez development at a reasonable market price of $9.40 per square foot. The cost per room based on a smaller hotel is $13,662.00 far higher than is acceptable for mid-priced hotel investors. The cost per room based on the 137-room project is $10,0772.00 per room which is in line with investor requirements. It must be noted that the anplicants have not requested anv offsets a_oainst transient occupancv taxes. 6. FISCAL SUMMARY: There are significant financial benefits to the City of Temecula. its local businesses and the surrounding community. Holiday Irm's are a proven high quality franchise that are represented in most American cities and perform well above industry standards. The proposed Holiday Inn Express revenues to the City of Temecula are realistic and achievable. We estimate that over a 10 year period the City. of Temecula. its residents and local businesses will see a total of $5.580,000.00 in payroll to local area residence $3.380,000.00 in Transient Occupancy, Sales and Proper,:y tax Collections. 0.300.000.00 in local non-hotel related business revenues. .780.000.00 in local area support related business revenues. The developers hi_~h investment will r~roduce a modern hi_~h c:uali~.' hole! that will produce an estimated economic benefit to the Citv of Temecula over the next 10 years of S21.040.000.00. In order to meet t~ctor #2 of Section 17.08.050 ( 2. The project provides exceptional architectural and landscapes design amenities which reflect an attractive image and character for the city ) every, effort was made to follow the cities General PerfOrmance Standards. Section 17.08.040 states. in part, "Considerations for approval of development plans and for awarding floor area ratio bonuses will be based upon both the development standards and the degree of conformance with the performance standards".the following is a list of the General Pertbrmance Standards followed by an explanation on how the project has met with that standard. Use creative entry treatments with such features as canopies. awnings, cornices or atriums. This has been accomplished by our entrance canopy which includes a metal barrel roof that matches the color of the main roof supported by large cylinder columns finished to math the trim of the main building. Landscape features as well as a cornice detail below the roof ties the canopy architecturally to the main building. Use a variety of complementary colon and avoid the use of just one color and dark colors. We have provided a variation in our color scheme that has the tower elements and the first floor portion of the building darker in color than the body. We have also provided a cornice detail. a waist band detail and other trim elements which will be a different color than the body or the tower elements. Use various window shapes and sizes. Although this is a hotel and there are several windows of the same size: We have provided areas that will feature large arched windows. At the main entzance to the hotel we have large arched windows that exceed 30'-0" in height and also help complement our interior common space. The grid partern in the windows will match the trim color of the building and provide visual interest. Architectural air conditioning grills wilt be installed below the guest room windows. Architectural grills are flush with the exterior finish of the structure and streamline so that when painted the same color as the finish they will blend with the area around them. Over the top of each grill a wrought iron decorative grill will be mounted to the structure to provide visual interest. The ,,,,Tought iron ~rill will protrude from the wall only enough to provide proper circulation for tlxe conditioning grill and will be painted to match the trim of the building. Vary. the building shapes by using curved or angled walls. Although we do not have angled or curved walls. we have varied the shape of the building by use of tower elements at the guest room portion of the hotel which adds contrast to the building facade. The tower elements are created by the ,.'arS..'ing room sizes which ~:'ilI allow the tower elements to prot,mdc ncar'C~ 6 ~ee:. The entrance portion of the building is highlighted b~' the large roof gables and taller tower elements that protrude from the main structure. The entrance also provides the location tbr the change in direction of the floor plan creating a basic "L" shape to the structure. Separate buildings or accessory. structures should be designed as an integral par~ of the primal' building by using complementary. materials, common architectural elements, and special landscape design techniques. The only separate structures are the entrance canopy and the fence that surround the pool area. Both contain the same primary building features and colors as the main structure. The fence will be wrought iron that will match the trim of the structure supported by plaster columns that will match the main body of the hotel in color with an architectural cap that will match the trim as well. Use a consistent design theme throughout the project. Employ complementan.' or consistent details, shapes, materials and color. In addition, consistent signage should be provided be provided with complementary. colon, lettering, placement and materials. A consistent design theme has been accomplished by the use of matching tower elements. cornice details and colors. The tower elements at the entrance portion of the hotel are larger than those located in the guest room portion of the hotel. this is done intentionally to draw more attention to the entrance. The signage for the project is not being reviewed at this time, and will be reviewed under a different submittal. The bulk of the building should be divided to reduce the apparent scale and provide visual interest. Box-like designs should be avoided. This has been accomplished by the use of proportional variations in the building footprint. We have provided architectural projections between each line of windows in order to create building shadows. Horizontal elements such as the waist band and the comice have been provided to break the visual mass of the facade into smaller areas. Tower elements have been designed with a gable roof that divides the roof and provides visual interest. The tower elements at the guest room portion are designed to provide contrast in the building facade without taking the tbcus away from the main entrance of the hotel. With respect to tiictor #3 of Section 17.08.050 (The project provides enhanced public tixcilities that are needed by the ci.ty, beyond those required mitigation impact measures.) A continence decision was made to provide facilities that would benefit the communi~' as a whole. JEFFERSON STREET MEDIAN: .;ks part of the development of this project. construction of a median 21ong Jefferson Ave.. a Public Works goal for several years. will be constructed. Though some assistance is being provided by the city. the size of the Holiday inn express project makes the cost of the median bearable tbr the developer. Thc addition of the median will add to the appeal and safe .ty of the area and help ignite addition development at this location. ENHANCED FACILITIES: A large outdoor' plaza area bordered by landscape features haS been provided for the use of both the community and guests. An out door pool area: adjacent to the great room. with landscape surrounding the area has been provided for the guests. A meeting room and Business Center ',','ill be provided near the main entrance of the hotel for the use of both guests and local business. High speed Internet access will be provided to all rooms. A large percentage of the rooms will be designed as suites for families. With the help of ci~' staff and approval of the franchise the building elevation has been modified from the Holiday Inn standard to incorporate a more attractive image. As part of the overall development ',ve have provided an enhanced entry. with landscaped medians and proposed monument signs to be utilized by the entire development. It is our intention with these design amenities. along with the landscape features, to provide an attractive image which reflects the character of the community.. HIGH OUALITY MODERN HOTEL NEEDED IN TE~IECULA: The developers are investing approximately $9.2 million in developing an attractive, modern. state of the art interior corridor hotel. Interior corridor hotels are perceived to be safer and achieve a higher level of security. for guests due to the restricted number of entrances. Many of Temecula economy hotels are over 12 years old with some in poor repair, the Ci.t.t? of Temecula lacks in the number of upper mid-market franchise hotels, such as the proposed Holiday in Express. It is a well known fact that Temecula hotels sell out frequently during weekends and festivals forcing visitors to either cancel their plans or stay within Temecula's near by cities creating "leakage" in Temecula's transient occupancy tax revenues. With the anticipated developmere of the Rogers-Dale project in Murrieta proposed to open in the 200 l, the problem with weekend sellout will greatly increase. In conclusion. we believe that this project ',viII provide the city, with enhanced public facilities. exceptional architectural and landscape amenities as ',','el1 as provide exceptional benefits to the ci.ty with respect to the employment. fiscal. social and economic needs of the community.. We do not believe: nor has city. staff concluded. that the increase in the F.A.R. will create unmitigable impacts upon traffic circulation or overburden the utilities serving that area. I hope the City of Temecula Planning Commission. in view of the points presented in this lener. will look favorable on approving the hotel and the requested O. l 1 increase in the floor area ratio. Sincerely, Dan Hinson.

The central project ddveway should also provide a northbound fight turn lane for vehicles desidng to turn dght into the project site. The south project ddveway to Front Street shoul~ be restricted to dght turns in/out only. Stop signs along with stop legends and stop barn should be installed at the access driveways. Sight distance at each project ddveway to Front Street should be reviewed with respect to standard Caltrans/City of Temecula sight distance standards at the time of preparation of final grading, landscape and street improvement plans. The project should participate on a pro-rata basis on funding city-wide traffic improvements based upon adopted City fee programs.

A Development Review Committee (DRC) meetings was held on October 21, 1999, and the applicant was provided with direction from staff to resolve site issues and enhance the architecture for consistency with the mall. In the original application the convenience market was to include liquor sales. (Liquor sale in conjunction with gasoline sales requires a Conditional Use Permit, as do drive-thru services.) On December 8, 1999, the Planning Commission denied the applicanrs request for Finding of Public Convenience or Necessity. Although the request for a liquor license was denied the applicant wished to continue with the project and it was deemed complete on December 23, 1999. This application was scheduled before the Planning Commission on January 5, 2000, but was continued and re-noticed for clarification of the project description in a new Notice of Public Hearing. F:\Depts\PLANNING\STAFFRPT~379pa99 Ultrmar.doc 2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant is proposing Development Plan to build and operate a gas station/convenience market (Ultramar) with a Conditional Use Permit for the drive-thru restaurant (Kentucky Fried Chicken). The project is located on Winchester Road, at the western major entry into the Promenade Mall, between Margadta and Ynez Roads. The proposed building is 5,000 square feet and includes a market and restaurant with 700 square feet of dining area and an outdoor patio, ANALYSIS Site Desian and Circulation The overall site is 1.2 acres with the building on the north side of the site backing up to Winchester Road. Surrounding the building on three sides of the property are Winchester Road to the north, the entry drive to the east, and the Mall Ring Road to the south. There are two points of access to the site from the Ring Road, one of which is shared with Krauses Sofa Factory to the west. The pumping islands are located between the building and the Ring Road. Vehicle parking is provided adjacent to the mall access road and in front of the store. The drive aisle serving the restaurant goes behind the building and parallel to Winchester Road. Although this site design places the drive-thru along the roadway, the building orientation blocks the view of vehicles at the fueling islands and half of the parking spaces. The length of the drive- thru aisle is sufficient to achieve the required six vehicle stacking distance behind the menu board. Parkina Analvsis This project falls under the parking standards of the Temecula Regional Center Specific Plan, which requires restaurants to provide 10 parking spaces per 1000 square feet of dining area and five parking spaces per 1000 square feet of retail. With 700 square feet of dining and 3,000 square feet of retail this project will require 22 parking spaces. Twenty-two parking spaces are provided. Architecture & Colors The building design utilizes architectural features found on the elevations of the mall such as wall finishes, roof elements and similar colors. The building is rectangular with angled tower/entry features to accent the building's entry points. Exterior walls around the building will be approximately 18 feet high with tower reaching 25 feet. The finish color of the stucco wall will be "Aspin" (beige) with accent bands and cornice capping finished in "Nubian Brown" (beige/tan). Along the base of the entire building will be a three foot band of tan split face concrete block veneer. Over the drive-thru and the windows will be metal awnings finished in "Tourmaline" (aqua). The gas canopy will be finished to match the building's colors and materials. Landscaping Three sides of this site am along roadways with landscaping that contribute heavily to the sites thirty-two percent (32%) landscaping. Additional landscaping is provided around the building, the patio and leading up to the storefront. Most of the perimeter landscaping is part of the mall master landscape design. All of the roadways are tree lined. Along Winchester Road are Tulip, Calabrain Pine, and Crape Myrtle trees. The mall entry drive is lined with Holly Oak and the Ring Road has California Pepper trees.

The Development Review Committee (DRC) reviewed the project on October 28, 1999. The project was deemed complete on January 3, 2000. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Tentative Parcel Map No. 29510 proposes to subdivide 3.42 vacant acres into two (2) parcels. The Development Plan is a proposal to design, construct, and operate a medical plaza on Parcel I of Tentative Parcel Map No. 29510. The plaza will consist of two (2) two-story buildings totaling 21,151 square feet. The buildings will have an east and a west wing and a courtyard at the interior of the project. ANALYSIS Site Design The project is located on the north side of State Highway 79 South. Access to the site is provided from a driveway located at the southwestern corner of the site from State Highway 79 South and a ddveway located at the northeastern comer of the site from Dartolo Road. Parking for the project is located on the east and the north sides of the project. Decorative paving is provided in the driveway accessed from Highway 79 South, the entrance from Dartolo Road, as well as the southern entrance to the parking lot. The decorative paving consists of scored, stained concrete. A Courtyard, complete with planters and decorative paving, is located central to the two buildings. The project provides an employee patio area with decorative paving and a seat wall at the western edge of the project. The design of the site is compatible with existing development in the area. Access, Traffic and Circulation Access for the site will be taken from State Highway 79 South and Dartolo Road. Parking is provided along the northern and eastern sides of the site, The Public Works Department has reviewed this project and have not indicated that the impacts will be significant. Emergency vehicles have access to all parts of each building from the parking areas along the front, side and rear of the building. Architecture, Color and Materials The architectural style of the project complements the existing development across Highway 79 South. The low pitched roofiines with wide overhanging eaves are composed of clay cap and pan tiles that are red-brown in color, The two-story stucco buildings are burnt ochre (dark gold & brown mixture) in color with lighter ochre accents. The windows and door frames are accented with teal color. The extensive trellis work throughout the project is stucco based with stained red-brown wood lattice work. \\TEMEC_FS101WOL1\DEPTS\PLANNING\STAFFRpT~398pa99,pc1.doc 3 Signaqe Signage is not a pad of this application. The review of signage will be conducted under a separate application at a later date. Landscapino Twenty-two percent (22%) of the site has been landscaped which exceeds the 20% minimum landscaping requirement in the HT (Highway Tourist Commercial) zone. The project provides landscape planters around the entire perimeter of the site. Additionally, interior planters are provided along the walkways and the perimeter of the medical buildings, which provides some separation between the parking lot and the plaza. The project proposes the retention of existing mature tress along State Highway 79 South, which will in turn, serve as street trees and provide some screening of the site.

SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS The project has been determined by staff to be consistent with all applicable City ordinances, standards, guidelines and policies. It is staffs opinion that the project is compatible with surrounding developments in terms of design and quality. FINDINGS Development Plan The proposal is consistent with the land use designation and policies reflected for (HT) Highway Tourist Commercial development in the City of Temecula General Plan, as well as the development standards for (HT) Highway Tourist Commercial development contained in the City's Development Code. The site is therefore properly planned and zoned and found to be physically suitable for the type and density of commercial development proposed. The project as conditioned is also consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local ordinance, including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the CityWide Design Guidelines, and fire and building codes. The overall design of the project, including the site, building, parking, circulation and other associated site improvements, is consistent with and intended to protect the health and safety of those working in and around the site. The project has been reviewed for, and as conditioned has been found to be consistent with, all applicable policies, guidelines, standards and regulations intended to ensure that the development will be constructed and function in a manner consistent with the public health, safety and welfare. The design of the proposed improvements is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. There are no fish, wildlife or habitat on the project site, and the project will not affect any fish, wildlife or habitat off-site. The site is surrounded by development and is an infill site. Furthermore, grading has already occurred at the site, which is a portion of a larger industrial park. The project will not individually or cumulatively have an adverse effect on wildlife resources, as defined in Section 711.2 of the Fish and Game Code. Tentative Parcel MaD No. 29510 The proposed subdivision and the design and improvements of the subdivision is consistent with the Development Code, General Plan, and the City of Temecula Municipal Code. The project is compatible with the existing General Plan Land Use Designation and zoning standards of Highway Tourist Commercial. Tentative Tract Map No. 29510 proposes to divide 3.42 acres into one 2.28 acre parcel and one 1.14 acre parcel, which exceeds the 20,000 square foot minimum lot area required by the Development Code. \\TEMEC_FS101\VOL1\DEPTS~PLANNING\STAFFRPT~398pa99.pc1 .doc 5 The tentative map does not propose to divide land which is subject to a contract entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965, or the land is subject to a Land Conservation Act contract but the resulting parcels following division of the land will not be too small to sustain their agricultural use. The tentative map has not been previously divided in the last two years and it is not designated as an agricultural land use area. The site is physically suitable for the type and proposed density of development proposed by the tentative map. The site does not have any serious topographical or environmental constraints which, would inhibit the type of development permitted by the Development Code or the General Plan. The design of the subdivision and the proposed improvements, with conditions of approval, are not likely to cause significant environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. The site is within the vicinity of infill development and is considered an in~ll site. The project will not individually or cumulatively have an adverse effect on wildlife resources, as defined in Section 711.2 of the Fish and Game Code.

The Planning Commission, in approving Planning Application No. PA99-0398 (Development Plan) hereby makes the following findings as required by Section 17.05.010.F of the Temecula Municipal Code: A. The proposal is consistent with the land use designation and policies reflected for (HT) Highway Tourist Commercial development in the City of Temecula General Plan, as welt as the development standards for (HT) Highway Tourist Commercial development contained in the City's Development Code. The site is therefore properly planned and zoned and found to be physically suitable for the type and density of commercial development proposed. The project as conditioned is also consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local ordinance, including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the CityWide Design Guidelines, and fire and building codes. B. The overall design of the project, including the site, building, parking, circulation and other associated site improvements, is consistent with and intended to protect the health and safety of those working in and around the site. The project has been reviewed for and as conditioned has been found to be consistent with all applicable policies, guidelines, standards and regulations intended to ensure that the development will be constructed and function in a manner consistent with the public health, safety and welfare. \\TEMEC_FS101\VOL1\DEPTS\PLANNING~Staffrpt\398pa99.pC1 .doc 8 C. The design of the proposed improvements is not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. There is no fish or wildlife habitat on the project site, and the project will not affect any fish or wildlife habitat off- site. The site is surrounded by development and is an infill site. Furthermore, grading has already occurred at the site, which is a podion of a larger industrial park. The project will not individually or cumulativeiy have an adverse effect on wildlife resources, as defined in Section 711.2 of the Fish and Game Code. Section 3. Environmental Compliance.
