A. The proposed subdivision and the design and improvements of the
subdivision are consistent with the Development Code, General Plan and City of
Temecula Municipal Code;
Tentative Parcel Map No. 37162 has been designed in a manner that is
consistent with the General Plan, the Subdivision Ordinance, the Development
Code, and the Municipal Code. The project meets all development and design
standards as required in the General Plan, Subdivision Ordinance, Development
1
Code and the Municipal Code. The project would allow for individual unit
ownership of the buildings once constructed.
B. 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.
The subject parcel does not propose to divide land which is subject to a contract
entered into pursuant to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965. The
subject property has not been designated for conservation or agricultural land,
and is not subject to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965.
C. The site is physically suitable for the type and proposed density of
development proposed by the Tentative Map.
The project consists of a Tentative Parcel Map for condominium purposes on
property designated for industrial development, which is consistent with the
General Plan and Development Code. The proposed Tentative Parcel Map
would allow for individual unit ownership of the buildings once constructed.
D. 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 proposed Tentative Parcel Map is eligible for a categorical exemption
pursuant to section 15315 (Minor Land Revisions) of the California
Environmental Quality Act. No impacts beyond those already identified for the
previously approved development plan are anticipated from the creation of the
new parcels.
E. The design of the subdivision and the type of improvements are not likely
to cause serious public health problems.
The project has been reviewed and commented on by the Fire Department, the
Public Works Department, the Building and Safety Department, and the Planning
Department. As a result, the project is conditioned to address public health
concerns. Further, provisions are made in the General Plan, Development Code,
and Fire and Building Codes to ensure that the public health, safety, and welfare
are safeguarded. The project is consistent with these documents.
F. The design of the subdivision provides for future passive or natural
heating or cooling opportunities in the subdivision to the extent feasible.
Development Plans and building plans have been designed and approved for the
proposed buildings on the project site. The approved Development Plans were
conditioned to require that prior to the issuance of building permits, and prior to
any construction, that the applicant submits building plans to the City of
Temecula Building Department. These plans require that the project comply with
all applicable California Building Codes. To the extent feasible, the development
plan and building plans allow for future passive or natural heating or cooling
2
opportunities. The proposed Tentative Parcel Map will not alter the approved
design of the development plans or the existing buildings.
G. The design of the subdivision and 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 subdivision.
All required rights-of-way and easements have been provided on the Tentative
Parcel Map. The City has reviewed these easements and has found no potential
conflicts.
H. The subdivision is consistent with the City's parkland dedication
requirements and is consistent with the Quimby Act;
This map does not include any residential units and therefore will not be subject
to Quimby fees.
Section 3. Environmental Findings. The Director of Community Development
hereby makes the following environmental findings and determinations in connection
with the approval of the Minor Conditional Use application:

project has been deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review
(Section 15315, Class 15, Minor Land Divisions);

an urbanized area that is zoned for industrial development. The map proposes
for a single parcel with individual building ownership that is consistent with the
