Section 1. That the above recitations are true and correct and are hereby incorporated by
reference.
Section 2. Findings. That the Temecula Planning Commission, in approving Planning
Application No. PA97-0444, hereby makes the following findings as required in Section 7.1 of County
Ordinance No. 460:
A. The proposed land division and the design or improvement of the project is compatible
with the General Plan designation and consistent with the General Plan policies regarding the Chaparral
Area. The site is physically suitable for the type and density of development. The General Plan Land
Use designation for the site is Low Density Residential, 0.5 to 2 dwelling units per acre.Tentative Parcel
Map No. 28000 proposes two residential lots on 1.07 acres, and is consistent with these standards.
B. The design of the proposed land division or the type of improvements is not likely to
cause serious public health problems. The project has been reviewed for conformance with the City's
General Plan, Development Code, and Subdivision Ordinances. The project is consistent with these
documents and conditions of approval have been placed on the project accordingly to assure that the
development conforms to City Standards. The developer received review and approval of the
subdivision from the County of Riverside Department of Environmental Health. A copy of an updated
Form SAN53 from this agency is on file with the Planning Department.
C. The design of the proposed land division or the type of improvements will not conflict
with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through, or use of, property within the
proposed land division. The existing General Telephone easement will not be affected by the proposed
development. No other known easements exist on the property.

D. The map as proposed,conforms to the logical development of the site, and is compatible
with the health, safety and welfare of the community. Access and circulation are adequate for
emergency vehicles. Both proposed parcels take access onto Estero Court, a publicly maintained
roadway.
E. The design of the proposed land division or proposed improvements are not likely
to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or
wildlife or their habitat. There are no known 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 under
permits from Riverside County in 1989. 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.
Section 3. Environmental Compliance. An Initial Study prepared for this project indicates
that although the proposed project could have a significant impact on the environment, there will not be
a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described in the Conditions of Approval
have been added to the project, and a Negative Declaration, therefore, is hereby granted.
Section 4. Conditions. That the City of Temecula City Council hereby conditionally
approves Planning Application No. PA97-0444 (Tentative Parcel Map No. 28000) for the subdivision of
a 1.07 acre parcel into two(2) parcels located at the southeast comer of Estero Street and Ormsby Road
and known as Assessor's Parcel No. 945-070-011,subject to the project specific conditions set forth on
Exhibit A, attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference.
