A. On October 19, 2017, Greg Fick filed Planning Application No. PA17-1508
a Development Plan, and Planning Application No. PA17-1509 a Conditional Use Permit
(collectively, "Application") in a manner in accord with the City of Temecula General Plan
and Development Code.
B. On February 7, 2018, the Application was considered by the Planning
Commission during a public hearing. During the public hearing, the Planning Commission
raised concerns overs the hours of operation of the business as well as potential
increased traffic on Verdes Lane. At the conclusion of the hearing, the Planning
Commission, with the consent of the applicant, continued the Application off-calendar so
the applicant could work with staff to resolve these issues.
C. The Application was processed including, but not limited to a public notice,
in the time and manner prescribed by State and local law.
D. The Planning Commission, at a regular meeting, considered the Application
and environmental review on May 16, 2018, at a duly noticed public hearing as prescribed
by law, at which time the City staff and interested persons had an opportunity to and did
testify either in support or in opposition to this matter.
E. At the conclusion of the Planning Commission hearing and after due
consideration of the testimony, the Planning Commission approved Planning Application
No. PA17-1508, subject to and based upon the findings set forth hereunder.
F. All legal preconditions to the adoption of the Resolution have occurred.
Section 2. Further Findings. The Planning Commission, in approving the
Application hereby finds, determines and declares that in accordance with Temecula
Municipal Code Section 17.05.010.F (Development Plan):
A. The proposed use is in conformance with the General Plan for Temecula
and with all applicable requirements of State law and other Ordinances of the City.
The General Plan designation for the project site is Community Commercial, which
allows for a drive-thru restaurant, as conditioned. Therefore, the proposed project
is in conformance with the General Plan. The project, as conditioned, is also
consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local Ordinances,
including the Citywide Design Guidelines, Campos Verdes Specific Plan, and Fire
and Building codes.
B. The overall development of the land is designed for the protection of the
public health, safety, and general welfare.
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 and living in an around the site as the project
is consistent with the General Plan, City Wide Design Guidelines, Campos Verdes
Specific Plan, Development Code, and Fire and Building Codes. 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.
Section 4. Environmental Findings. The Planning Commission hereby makes
the following environmental findings and determinations in connection with the approval
of the Development Plan:
A. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed
project has been deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review
(Section 15332, In-Fill Development Projects):
(a) The project is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all
applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and
regulations.
The project is consistent with the applicable General Plan designation because drive-thru
restaurants are a conditionally allowable use within the Campos Verdes Specific Plan.
The project also meets all applicable General Plan and Zoning policies and regulations.
(b) The proposed development occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than
five acres substantially surrounded by urban uses.
The project is located within City limits and is located on a site that is 1.85 acres in size.
The proposed project is substantially surrounded by commercial and residential buildings
as well as a major roadway.
(c) The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species.
The project site is currently a fully developed site with an existing commercial building
and paved parking lot. The project proposes to demolish the existing structure and
construct a new smaller structure. Therefore, the project site has no value as habitat for
endangered, rare or threatened species.
(d) Approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic,
noise, air quality, or water quality.
The proposed project was required to prepare a Project-Specific Water Quality
Management Plan (WQMP) that was reviewed and conceptually accepted for entitlement
by City Staff as the WQMP meets the requirements of the City of Temecula. A Noise
Analysis Report was prepared by d8F Associates which detailed that sound level
measurements at surrounding residential locations regularly experience ambient noise
levels exceeding 65 d8A Lmax, which is identified in the City of Temecula General Plan
as being conditionally acceptable after a noise analysis is made and noise reduction
measures are identified and included in the project design. Those ambient noise levels
are generally higher than what would be produced by the project. The project maximum
noise levels would generally be lower than what is currently experienced by the
community. Project operations would not change the character of maximum noise levels
in the community. A Trip Generation Comparison was also prepared by Kimley-Horn
using trip generation estimates based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers Trip
Generation Manual. The Trip Generation Comparison details that while there is expected
to be a relatively minor increase in daily traffic compared to the past use on the project
site, it is expected that there will be an actual reduction in traffic during the evening peak
hour. Therefore, the project is not anticipated to result in any significant effects relating
to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality as the project, as conditioned, is an allowed
use per the City of Temecula General Plan and Campos Verdes Specific Plan.
(e) The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services.
The project site is surrounded by development and is able to be serviced by all required
utilities and public services.
Section 5. Conditions. The Planning Commission of the City of Temecula
approves Planning Application No. PA17-1508, a Development Plan for the construction
of an approximately 3,935 square foot drive-thru restaurant for Raising Cane's located at
40390 Margarita Road, subject to the Conditions of Approval set forth on Exhibit A,
attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference.
Section 5. PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED by the City of Temecula

Best Best Water service to individual lots will require the extension of water facilities within
General Counsel dedicated public and/or private right-of-ways. Individual water meters will be
required for each lot and/or project unit, including separate water services/meters
for domestic service, fire service, and landscape irrigation service, as applicable.
Beginning in 2018, newly constructed multi-unit residential structures are
required to measure the quantity of water supplied to each individual residential
dwelling unit.
Where private on-site water facilities(for water service,fire service, irrigation,or
other purpose) will cross or will be shared amongst multiple lots/project units
(only by special variance of the Rules and Regulations), and/or where such
`common' facilities will be owned and maintained by a Property Owners'
Association,RCWD requires execution and recordation of a Reciprocal Easement
and Maintenance Agreement or equivalent document of covenants, codes, and
restrictions.

facilities and the completion of financial arrangements between RCWD and the property owner.
Requirements for the use of recycled water are available from RCWD.
As soon as feasible,and prior to the preparation of California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA)
documents, the project proponent should contact RCWD for a determination of existing water
system capability, based upon project-specific demands and/or fire flow requirements, as well as
a determination of proposed water facilities configuration.If new facilities are required for service,
fire protection, or other purposes, the project proponent should contact RCWD for an assessment
of project-specific fees and requirements.
Sewer service to the subject project/property,if available,would be provided by Eastern Municipal
Water District. If no sewer service is currently available to the subject project/property, all
proposed waste discharge systems must comply with the State Water Resources Control Board,
health department, and/or other requirements as they relate to the protection of groundwater

Raising Cane's Project Description&Statement of Operations
Project Site:40390 Margarita Road,Temecula,CA
Costanzo Investments is proposing an urban infill development of a Raising Cane's restaurant with a
drive-thru facility located at 40390 Margarita Rd. (APN: 910-330-014). The site is approximately 1.85-
acres and is currently occupied by a vacant 9,378 square foot restaurant building, which is to be
demolished in anticipation of the proposed development. The project site is adjacent to Lowes Home
Improvement and BBVA Compass, a commercial bank. Another commercial shopping center is located
directly across Margarita Road from the project site, and includes tenants such as Office Depot, Party
City, Islands Restaurant, Five Guys, Organic Roots Grocery, Cost Plus World Market, Nordstrom Rack,
buybuyBaby, and others. A residential neighborhood is located across Mancera Way and Verdes to the
northeast and southeast from the project site.
Raising Cane's has a commitment to extremely high quality never-frozen chicken finger meals that are
delivered and prepared fresh to customers' satisfaction. The restaurant provides fast and convenient,
and all-around great tasting chicken fingers meal service with uncompromising standard to its
customers. Raising Cane's serves to benefit the community economically with the additional jobs and
services it will provide. The project is anticipated to have 10-12 employees staffed per shift and
proposed hours of operation for the drive-thru and dining area are from 9AM to Midnight. These are
shorter operational hours than those found at any other Raising Cane's location in California.
The site is designated as Community Commercial per the General Plan land use designation and is zoned
as Commercial within Planning Area 4 of the Campos Verde Specific Plan. The proposed Raising Cane's
will be approximately 3,935 square feet with 83 interior seats and 24 outdoor patio seats.The proposed
building FAR will be approximately 0.05 that which is far below the maximum allowed FAR for the site.
The proposed height of the Raising Cane's will be 23'7" which is below the maximum allowed height of
50 ft. per standard. The building will be designed with high quality architectural detail per the included
elevations.
The site will utilize the existing access off of the private drive west of Mancera Way as the main entry
point to the site. A right-out only drive is proposed on Verdes Lane to enhance circulation for the site.
Additionally, the restaurant features a drive-thru facility with dual-lane access that are positioned side
by side to mitigate on-site vehicular congestion and facilitate quick and speedy access and service. The
drive-thru will meet and exceed the required six (6) vehicle stacking spaces per code and is designed to
not have any conflicts with circulation for site parking.The drive-thru facility will be designed so that any
pedestrian walkways intersecting the drive aisles will be clearly marked with paving or striping. The
location of the speaker and menu board is designed to be screened and furthest away from neighboring
residence view and noise level is to be kept to a minimal level.
In accordance with the parking requirements per the Temecula Municipal and Zoning Code, the parking
ratio of 1 space per 75 SF or total of 53 spaces for the Raising Cane's will be adequately met with the
proposed 58 stalls provided on site.
Pursuant of the City of Temecula Municipal code, the applicant hereby requests the following
entitlements to permit the development of the proposed project:
• Approval of Development Plan review for the new construction of the Raising Cane's restaurant
pursuant of Chapter 17.05.10
• Approval of Conditional Use Permit for the drive-thru facility in pursuant of Chapter 14.04.010
