A presentation will be given by John Meyer, Senior Planner from the Planning
Department concerning the Old Town Specific Plan,
DRAFT
A. GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
The purpose of this section is to articulate the commun/ty's ideas regarding the goals and
objectives for the Old Town Specific Plan and begin the foundation for subsequent sections of
this Plan.
GOALS:
Goals are broad statements of purpose that define the community's and local government's
hope for the future. They are general in nature. and do not indicate when and how these goals.
are to be accomplished.
Objectives are statements of intent that generally gu/de future decisions in specffic topic areas.
POLICIES:
PoLicies are more specific statements of intent to deal with particular topics in a certain
fashion. They begin to define the approach to achieve the Plan goals and obJectiyes, and are
the first step in the developmere of a solution by forming the basis of development standards
and zoning regulations.
OV'ERAT,L GOAT,:
To create a dynamic "Old Town" commercial/residentlal core that is attractive and of
high quality, respectful of its historic buildings and unifying design theme and
providing an economically viable setting for a mixture of local and tourist commercial
uses, administrative/professional and residential uses with safe, efficient circulation
and access.
In an effort to further define ~nd prioritize this overall goal statement, the following
Community Design, Land Use/Economic, Circulation/Parking, and Murrieta Creek goals
and objectives are provided.
CO~'vB~.FNITY DESIGN
GOAL:
To erecite a h~gh q,aHag and distinct '7Vestem" image and a functionaL vibrant and aestheffcnjly
piec.sfng O~d Town for Temeculc~
Provide easy to follow rules and regulations for new development to complement
and promote the "Old West" vision for the Old Town area.
Revitnltze exiting building facades which do not add to the established
azchitectural theme.
Promote a a dearly pedestrian atmosphere in the area bounded by Second Street
on the south, Sixth Street on the north, Murrieta Creek on the west, and Mercedes
Avenue on the east.
POLICIES:
Protect the grid street pattern in Old Town, specifically between First and SLx-th
Streets.
Provide for the elimination or screening of visually ol~jectionable views such as
outdoor storage, utility cabinets, trash bins, roof-mounted equipment, blank side
walls, recycling equipment, and loading areas through the implementation of
design guidelines.
Promote complimentary "native" landscape treatments throughout the Old Town
area to enhance storefronts and the desLred architectural theme.
Enhance and promote the creation of enjoyable public spaces throughout Old
Town through the use of street furniture, landscaping, public art, building design,
and pedesffian orientation.
Design vehicular entry points which provide a sense of arrival to Old Town, initiate
the Old Town streetscape theme.
Provide signage to guide tourists to important destinations.
Soften the urban character of parking areas, pedestrian spaces, and walkways with
decomposed granite or wooden plank sidewalks. Streets should also appear less
urban (asphalt).

Town that hetp create a high quality historic image.
Require compliance with the Design GuidelLnes for the Old Town
Specific Plan in new development or the expansion or redeveloproent of
e~sting development.

development greater than 50.000 s.f. in Old Town and encourage
smaller storef~ont, pedestrian oriented design.
Utilize landscape materials that are clean, safe. w~d resistant, drought
tolerant. and native species whenever possible. Informal landscape
forms should be u~m~ed on the major thoroug1~fares to emphasize the
'unplanned' appearance of a rustic early Californm settlement.
Consider developing an incentive program to provide certain "e~cra' "Old
West" or equestrian design arnenities within their projects. Of particular
interest are covered arcades or porches, wood plank sidewalks, old west
art. ffacts {water troughs, wind vanes, hitching posts), benches, and signs

DISCUSSION: On February 23, 1993, staff presented the recommendation
of the Parks and Recreation Commission to prohibit smoking in all city parks, trails,
and recreation facilities indoors and outdoors. After considerable discussion, the City
Council did not feel comfortable with prohibiting smoking completely in all outdoor
areas in city parks. However, some members of the City Council did support
prohibiting smoking within certain outdoor areas of city parks.

recommended that the Parks and Recreation Commission provide input to staff
concerning the revision of this ordinance.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TEMECULA
AMENDING ORDINANCE 91-37 SETrING FORTH PARK AND RECREATIONAL
FACILITY OPERATIONAL POLICIES AND REGULATIONS
DISCUSSION: On December 14, 1992: the Parks and Recreation
Commission approved and recommended to the City Council to amend Ordinance No.
91-37 to prohibit smoking of any tobacco products inside and outside of all City
parks, recreation facilities, and trails except the Northwest Sports Complex. It was
recommended that the Northwest Sports Complex be excluded from this policy
because of the special use of this particular site for community and regional special
events.
The Commission cited several reasons for prohibiting smoking inside and outside all
City parks and recreation facilities. They included the recent .report released by the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that states second hand smoke is harmful to
non-smokers, particularly children. As a result, the Commission felt this
recommendation will enhance the health and safety of residents which utilize City
parks and recreational facilities. Further, this policy would be enforced in the same
manner as all other rules and regulations that pertain to City parks i.e. prohibiting
alcohol use, no open fires, no golfing, etc.
The League of California Cities has established a partnership with the California
Healthy Cities Project. This effort is designed to preserve and enhance the health and
safety of city residents. The League of California Cities is supportive of smoke-free
work places, smoke-free restaurants, and establishing a vending machine restriction
that eliminates access to cigarettes by minors. However, according tothe League of
California Cities, Temecula would be the first City in California to prohibit smoking
outdoors in City parks and trails.

SKATEBOARDING AREA IN SPORTS PARK
DISCUSSION: Staff is currently in the process of drafting an ordinance
relating to skateboarding in the City of Temecula. This ordinance will adopt rules and
regulations for the use of skateboards and roller skates on public and private property.
The current park use ordinance approved by the Parks and Recreation Commission and
the Board of Directors prohibits skateboarding in public parks except for designated
skateboarding areas within a park.
The City has received several complaints from business owners concerning
skateboarding adjacent to their property as well as requests from teenagers requesting
that a place be established for them to skateboard. Staff has been directed by the
City Manager to pursue a possible location within an existing city park to establish a
skateboarding area.
The Health and Safety Code Section 25906 of the State Government Code mandates
that operators of skateboard parks require users of the park to wear a helmet, elbow
pads, and knee pads. The statute was amended in 1992 to address skateboard parks
owned and operated by local public agencies. In public areas which will not have
supervision on a regular basis, a sign must be posted stating that anyone using the
skateboard area must wear a helmet, elbow pads, and knee pads, and failure to (Jo so
will be subject to citation under the ordinance.
A presentation will be made concerning a possible option to provide a skateboarding
area at the Rancho California Sports Park, The purpose of this presentation will be
to receive input from the Commission concerning this proposal.

AMERICANSWITH DISABILITIES ACT (ADA)
BRUCE A. HARTLEY, MAINTENANCE SUPERINTENDENT
DISCUSSION: The Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) was passed into
law January 26, 1990. The ADA has several components or titles. Title II, Public
Accommodations, which went into effect July 26, 1992, has direct impact on
municipalities. This act requires that all municipalities conduct a self evaluation of
services, programs, activities and facilities to determine where barriers exist and how
they can be overcome (by January 26, 1993) must be free of architectural barriers.
The retroactive requirement for removal of barriers must be completed by January 26,
1995, unless there is undue economic burden attached to process.
In order to comply with the requirements of the Americans With Disabilities Act
(ADA), the City of Temecula, Community Services Department has initiated and
completed a survey of existing facilities to identify any items that will need to be
addressed to meet ADA guidelines.
The primary deficiency found throughout the City's parks was inadequate access for
handicapped citizens to recreational opportunities. The parks currently being utilized
for recreation and leisure activities have been surveyed and a list of needed
improvements has been compiled. These will be made as part of the Community
Services Department's Capital Improvement Program.
All new construction within the City's park system has been designed to meet or
exceed current ADA guidelines and provide a quality experience for all levels and
capabilities of the park user. The consultants utilized for T.C.S.D. projects are current
with all appropriate ADA guidelines.
All recreation activities and programs have been reviewed and assessed as to their
accessibility to the handicapped. Consideration is also being given to hearing impaired
and vision impaired individuals when planning recreational opportunities. Staff is
reviewing information from the Braille Institute of Los Angeles and other non-profit
organizations as to how we can provide recreational opportunities accessible to all.
