Via overhead maps, Associate Planner Harris presented the project plan (of record),
specifying the location, the lots sizes, and the adjacent land uses; noted that when the
project was presented to the Planning Commission in March of 2001, it was continued
off calendar in order for the applicant to further enhance the building design due to its
prominent location, in particular the view from the 1-15 Freeway; relayed that the plan
has been fully re-designed with significantly more articulation which created a plan with
pleasing visual interest; with respect to Floor Area Ratio (FAR), noted the request for a
FAR increase which staff opined was warranted due to the significant architectural and
landscape enhancements that have been incorporated into this project; and specified the
recommended modifications to the conditions associated with this project, as follows:
That Public Works Condition No. 30 (related to future freeway improvements) be
deleted.
That with respect to Condition Nos. 27, and 28 (regarding an Encroachment Permit),
that the term orproposed be deleted per the applicant's request, noting that via

That a condition be added restricting all outdoor storage on site.
That Condition No. 21 (regarding the planting of eucalyptus trees) be modified to

For Commissioner Mathewson, Associate Planner Associate Planner Associate Planner
Harris noted that with respect to the request for a FAR increase, staff opined that the
project met the 3rd criteria warranting an increase (which was denoted n page 5 of the
staff report), providing significant architectural and landscaping enhancements; for
Commissioner Telesio, clarified that the only revision recommended for Condition No. 21
(regarding the planting of eucalyptus trees) was that the condition would be required to
be achieved Prior to the Issuance of Occupancy Permits, rather than Prior to the
Issuance of Building Permits.
For Commissioner Telesio's queries regarding the installation of eucalyptus trees,
Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that the landscape architect could provide
additional information regarding this matter; and for Chairman Chiniaeff, provided the
rationale for the recommendation to add a condition requiring that all tenant
improvements receive Planning Department clearance, noting the desire to restrict auto
retail uses or alternate inappropriate uses.
In response to Commissioner Telesio, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed
that he would not be opposed to removing the phrase or proposed from Condition Nos.
27, and 28 (regarding Encroachment Permits), which the applicant was requesting to be
deleted.
For Commissioner Mathewson, Director of Planning Ubnoske recommended that there
be an added condition requiring a comprehensive sign plan for the buildings, submitted
to the Planning Department for review; and for Commissioners Guerriero, and
Mathewson noted that the size of signage, as well as permitted window signs, would be
governed by the Development Code.
Mr. David Wakefield, representing the applicant, noted the efforts of the applicant to
meet the desired design criteria of the Planning Commission while still maintaining a
marketable project, relaying that the applicant was pleased with the new revised plan,
noting the courtyards, the unique landscaping, the water features, the special lighting,
the visually pleasing elements on all four elevations with an emphasis along the 1-15
Freeway corridor, and unique paint colors with added glass and metal treatments; per
discussions with the Business Park Association, noted that there was assurance
provided to the applicant that the CC&Rs would be more stringently enforced in the
future; provided an overview of the anticipated tenants (i.e., attorneys, high-end large
furniture companies); with respect to the recommendation for a comprehensive sign
plan, advised that this plan would be submitted at a future point in time, noting that the
applicant was agreeable to the recommendation; and relayed no opposition to submitting
tenant improvements to the Planning Department for review.
In light of Commissioner Telesio's, and Chairman Chiniaeff's concerns, Chairman
Chiniaeff advised that the applicant reevaluate the plan to plant additional eucalyptus
trees with the landscape architect due to the diseases the trees are prone to obtaining
recently.
Thanking the applicant, Commissioner Guerriero, echoed by Chairman Chiniaeff, noted
that this was a showcase project.
Concurring with Commissioner Guerriero, Commissioner Mathewson noted that he was
pleased with the architectural plans, reiterating his fear regarding potential signage
negatively impacting the visual pleasing aesthetics, concurring with the need for a
comprehensive sign plan, suggesting that the signage be minimal so as to not detract
from the architecture.
Commissioner Telesio relayed that this project was much improved in comparison to the
original design, concurring with Commissioner Mathewson's concerns regarding
signage.
Reiterating the project's plan for beautiful architecture, Commissioner Olhasso relayed,
for future reference, a desire for the sign plans to be presented to the Planning
Commission in conjunction with the project plans.
In light of Commissioner Telesio's and Chairman Chiniaeff's concern regarding the
planting of eucalyptus trees, Director of Planning Ubnoske recommended deleting
Condition No. 21 (regarding the planting of eucalyptus trees), and that the Planning
Commission direct staff to work with the Landscape Architect to develop a plan for
suitable landscaping in these areas.
For Commissioner Telesio, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed that in the
future, if additional right of way was needed for freeway improvements, that the City
would be able to acquire the property.
MOTION: Commissioner Mathewson moved to close the public hearing; and to approve
staff's recommendation, subject to the following revisions:
Modify-
That Condition No. 21 (regarding the planting of eucalyptus trees) be deleted,
and that staff work with the Landscape Architect to designate suitable
landscaping to be placed in these particular planting areas.
That Condition Nos. 27, and 28 (regarding Encroachment Permits) be modified,
deleting the term or proposed.
That Condition No. 30 (regarding future freeway improvements) be deleted.
That a condition be added requiring that a comprehensive Master Sign Plan be
presented to the Planning Department for review Prior to the Issuance of

plan (per the staff report), noting the location, the thirty percent (30%) of the building
which will be utilized by Edge Development, the remaining seventy percent (70%)which
will be for speculative Office use, the access points (via two shared driveways), the
parking provisions, the primary entrance along the Western Bypass corridor, the
enhanced architectural elements, and the landscape plan; relayed the following
corrections to the Conditions of Approval (COAs): noting that on page 10 of the COAs,
the DIF category should be corrected to indicate Office rather than Industrial; and with
respect to Condition No. 97 (which referenced the attached letter from the Fish&Wildlife
Service), relayed that the requirement for this applicant to conduct a biological survey
was not needed since this requirement was fulfilled with the biological survey conducted
for the underlying parcel map.
For Commissioner Telesio, Assistant Planner Preisendanz advised that the underlying
map has been conditioned to submit the improvement plans or to install the Western
Bypass Prior to the Issuance of Building Permits. Deputy Director of Public Works Parks
provided additional information, noting that Via Industria is the frontage road which
provides access to this parcel which was also being considered as the alignment of the
Western Bypass Corridor; advised that the Parcel Map was conditioned to improve Via
Industria to the standard for the Western Bypass Corridor, relaying that if this particular
project goes through prior to the complete installation of this road (for the Parcel Map)
then this project would be required to build two lanes of that road (within their frontage
and extended to Roick Drive, which is their access point) Prior to Occupancy.
For Chairman Chiniaeff, Assistant Planner Preisendanz relayed that since the
requirements of Condition No. 97 have been met (regarding the Fish&Wildlife Service
requirements), this condition could be deleted; and for Commissioner Guerriero,
specified the denotation on the site plan, which was a decorative landscape element,
and not a wall.
Mr. Scott Barone, the applicant, in response to Commissioner Mathewson, relayed that it
may be feasible to replace the compact parking stalls with standard stalls, if that was the
Planning Commission's desire, while noting that with this implementation there would be
the loss of two stalls.
On a side note, Commissioner Olhasso relayed that she has seen Mr. Barone's
company signs all over town, expressing gratitude for his investment in the City of
Temecula.
Commissioner OIhasso requested staff to make her aware of the next time a
Development Impact Fee is presented to the City Council for consideration, advising that
she had a desire to address this issues with the Councilmembers, noting her opposition
for charging Industrial users Development Impact Fees, advising that there were
massive Industrial users in the City generating sales tax, as well as jobs.
MOTION: Commissioner Guerriero moved to close the public hearing; and to approve
staff's recommendation, subject to the following revisions:
Modify-

recommendation to Deputy City Manager Thornhill, and that while staff is still
investigating the matter, Deputy City Manager Thornhill concurred with the concept.

the grading plan; and relayed that staff had a $150,000 letter of credit guaranteeing

C. For Commissioner Mathewson, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks noted that he
would investigate whether the recent traffic surveys being conducted on Margarita
Road, andon Meadows Parkway (proximate to Temecula Middle School) were being
conducted by staff, Commissioner Mathewson clarifying that his concern was based
on these studies being conducted prior to the start of the school year, which could
skew the results.
D. With respect to any potential revisions to the Wolf Creek Plan, for Commissioner
Mathewson, Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that Mr. Griffith has considered
moving the park site, and constructing all the senior housing south of Wolf Valley
Road, clarifying that there had only been preliminary discussions, and that changes
would not be formally submitted for a period of time.
For Commissioner Guerriero's queries with respect to the blight created due to the
lack-of landscaping on the rear of the homes (i.e., the hillside) that border Margarita
Road (in the Rancho Del Sol Development), Chairman Chiniaeff noted that this
portion of these lots was not maintained by the TCSD, and if the property were to be
turned over to the City, the lots would be substandard. Chairman Chiniaeff and

authority staff has regarding these non-landscaped areas.
For Chairman Chiniaeff, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed that the
street projects on Ynez Road were scheduled to be completed by Friday, September

grocery store use on the site, clarifying that there has been no additional submittals
since that time.
For Commissioner Olhasso, City Attorney Thorson relayed that under the
Telecommunications Act of 1996, cities cannot deal with the health issues

documents are available regarding the effects of electromagnetic radiation.

the plan (as represented in the supplemental agenda material); noted that the applicant
was additionally proposing to replace various awnings at the center with metal awnings;
provided the rationale for bringing this item before the Planning Commission, relaying
the variation in the proposed color scheme in comparison to the County's approval, and
the residents' expressed concern; and for Chairman Chiniaeff, confirmed that both the
applicant and staff were in agreement with the proposed colors.
For Commissioner Olhasso, Assistant Planner Preisendanz confirmed that the awnings
on the Longs and Albertson's uses would remain blue, and that the replaced awnings
would be green, clarifying that this particular proposal did not include the outlining pads.
Noting the plethora of colors utilized at this center, Commissioner Telesio enumerated
the two colors of awnings, and the 3-4 variant colors for the trim, advising that it
appeared that this project would not meet the standards of the Design Guidelines.
In response to Chairman Chiniaeff, Assistant Planner Preisendanz noted that the
applicant was not present at this time.
For Commissioner Guerriero, Assistant Planner Preisendanz provided additional
information regarding the discussions between staff and the applicant, noting the
changes implemented from the original repainting design plan.
It was noted that the applicant's representatives arrived to the meeting at 6:22 P.M.
Advising that she was not pleased with the proposal, Commissioner OIhasso specified
the gold color included in the color scheme, the blue awning that was worn and
dilapidated, and the numerous colors proposed for the paint application; and opined that
the plan should be redesigned.
Mr. Jeff Jonsson, representing the applicant, noted that the rationale for leaving the blue
awnings on the Albertson's and Longs use was due to the consistency with other uses
(i.e., the Shell gas station), which the applicant did not have control over; for
Commissioner Olhasso, noted that there were three primary colors in the repainting
design plan which were hues that blended with one another, relaying that the beige-gold
color (Tannery) was added to break up the monotony of color and would solely be
applied on the two perimeter structures (i.e., Peony's and Wearabouts), the Silver Lining
Cards and Gifts use, and the three towers in the food court, which would be painted the
Tannery color with an added gold color; specified that the gray color proposed for the
wood was consistent with the existing color; and relayed that the "Next Hunter" color was
proposed to tie in with the landscape, the tabletops, the furniture, and the existing
umbrellas.
For Mr. Jonsson, Commissioner Guerriero clarified that his main concern was regarding
the mustard/gold color, in particular the "Cockatoo Gold" color, Chairman Chiniaeff and
Commissioner Telesio concurring, and adding that they were also concerned with the
proposed "Tannery" color.
Commissioner Telesio advised that due to the small size of the center, the paint
application should be more uniform, and that the number of colors utilized should be
decreased.
In response to the Commission's concerns, Mr. Jonsson questioned whether the
following plan would be acceptable: the Peony's, the Wearabouts, and the Silver Lining
Cards and Gifts buildings would be painted color "A" (White Trade), the three main
towers would be painted color "B" (Hedgehog), advising that colors "E" (Tannery), and
"G" (Cockatoo Gold) would be eliminated; and for Chairman Chiniaeff, confirmed that the
existing blue awnings could be either repainted or buffed, noting that the ladder would be
relocated to improve the visual appearance.
MOTION: Chairman Chiniaeff moved to close the public hearing; and to approve staffs
recommendation, subject to the following revisions:
Modify-
The colors "E" (Tannery), and "G" (Cockatoo Gold) would be deleted from the
color scheme.
The Peony's, the Wearabouts, and the Silver Lining Cards and Gifts buildings
would be painted Color "A" 0Nhite Trade).
The three main towers would be painted Color "B" (Hedgehog).
The existing blue awnings at the Albertson's and Longs' uses would be either
repainted or buffed.
The motion was seconded by Commissioner Guerriero and voice vote reflected approval
with the exception of Commissioner Mathewson who was absent.
COMMISSIONER'S REPORTS
A. Relaying that he had addressed this issue with Code Enforcement,
Commissioner Guerriero queried whether it was staff's recommendation that he
follow up or that staff address the matter of the large containers being stacked
behind the Power Center.
With respect to traffic safety, Commissioner Guerriero advised that the
monument sign placed on Margarita Road creates negative site distance impacts
in particular while exiting the Hometown Buffet use, additionally noting that the
added leasing signs have compounded the problem.
In response, Director of Planning Ubnoske noted that she would forward the
matter to Deputy Director of Public Works Parks.
Commissioner Olhasso queried if the Planning Commission could be updated
regarding the funding designated for constructing the medians in the areas now
controlled with traffic cones, in particular on Highway 79.
For Commissioner Olhasso, Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that the City
Council item regarding consideration to place City Hall in the Old Town area had
been continued.
Commissioner Olhasso recommended that Art in Public Places be considered in
the General Plan process, in particular regarding Development Impact Fees.
For Commissioner Olhasso, Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that
discussions regarding Senior Apartment Housing units in the Target Center
would begin in the middle of November.
Commissioner Olhasso recommended that staff address the Cai Spas use
cleaning up the site.
For Chairman Chiniaeff, Senior Planner Hazen noted that after staff investigation
it was revealed that there was no legitimate reason for the vehicles parking along
Solana Way, advising that the matter has been turned over to Code
Enforcement. Chairman Chiniaeff recommended that the matter be addressed by
the Public/Traffic Safety Commission, recommending that the curbs be painted
red.
PLANNING DIRECTOR'S REPORT
Director of Planning Ubnoske advised that a Development Code Amendment,
providing language to clarify what constitutes a substantial conformance, would
be brought to the Planning Commission.

BACKGROUND
The proposed building site is located on one of two adjoining lots, which was previously approved as
a single project on two lots with abutting buildings (PA00-0427). Subsequent to that approval, the
other owner withdrew and this applicant proposes to proceed with a single building on one lot.
Staff advised the applicant that the project has changed significantly and a new public hearing must
be conducted. In addition, staff advised the applicant to add articulation to the building wall that
previously would have been abutting the other building, but which will now be visible. Staff also
advised the applicant to revise the plan in order to make the necessary design findings for approval.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The applicant is proposing a Development Plan to design and construct an industrial warehouse
building, made from concrete tilt-up, totaling 18,602 square feet. Accell Connectors Inc., an
electronic component distributor, intends to occupy this building.
ANALYSIS
Architecture
This building's architecture is generally unchanged from the original concept previously approved by
the Planning Commission. The proposed buildings will be constructed of tilt-up concrete with relief
accents, offsets and projections as required in the Citywide Design Guidelines. Architectural
accenting is provided at the entry in the form of a projecting fascia around the building's northeast
corner supported by three columns. The primarily building color is a warm white with light gray-
R:~D p',2001'431-0471 Acceil Lot 6~St~fl report,doc
green accenting in varying locations to highlight the windows and the concrete pattern work. A
sandblasted finish will be used on the columns and on the front entry projections. The windows on
the front and side elevations will have blue-green glazing and silver anodized aluminum frames.
Varied parapet heights have been provided to break up some of the linear length of the building.
At staff's urging, the front one-third of this building is setback five feet from the property to provide
relief to the building and allow for landscaping accent, in order for staff to make the design findings
required by the development code. Additional relief and landscaping has been added to the west
elevation to further accent the building where it is most visible from the street. This accenting is
provided in the form of false windows along the offset front third, relief features designed to mimic
the windows, and a slight wall offset to enhance the back two/thirds of this elevation.
Site Desiqn and Circulation
The design of this site is basically the same as was previously approved. What has changed is the
ability to circulate around the building. This is a deep rectangular site fronting on the south side of
Winchester Road. The building will be placed midway back on the lot and a portion of the building
will be on the west property line. One drive aisle, on the east site of the lot, provides access into the
site and extends the depth of the lot. Parking is provided in front of the building, along the eastern
property line, and along the rear of the lot. As before, there will be roll-up doors on the east and
south (rear) elevations to accommodate the tenant's needs.
To comply with the Citywide Design Guidelines and the Development Code standard, the building
has been offset three feet along the east elevation and five feet on the west elevation to break up
the linear length of this building. These offsets articulate the building and with the aid of landscaping
along the east elevation, will help screen the delivery area as required. Now that circulation is not
possible around the building, a hammerhead turn around has been incorporated at the rear of the
site to assure delivery and fire vehicles can get in and out of the site.
Landscapinq
The original approval of the project had slightly exceeded the minimum 20% landscape coverage,
and this revised design has increased the landscaping with the building offset and the closing off of
the through drive aisles. Twenty-five percent of this site will now be landscaped. The largest
percentage of landscaping will be along the street frontage. Here the street tree will be 24 inch box
London Plane Tree (Platanus Acedfolia) with 15 gallon Chinese Pistache (Pistacia Chinensis)
accenting the parking lot. Along the front elevation will be a mix of Purple leaf Plums and Canary
island Pines. Along the perimeters of the property are a mix of trees and shrubs that will provide
accent color and screening of the parking areas. The landscaping, as proposed, is consistent with
the required landscaping standards and will compliment the project.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
Staff has reviewed the project for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act, Based
upon staff's review, the proposed project is eligible for a CEQA exemption pursuant to Section
15332 of the CEQA Guidelines based on the following reasons:
· The sites are 1.08 acres, which is less than the 5 acres required.
· The proposed development is consistent with the existing development in the area.
· The site has no value as a habitat for endangered, rare, or threatened species.
· The site will be adequately served by public utilities and services.
R:'~D P'~.001~)1-0471 Accell Lot 6~Staff report.doc
3
· The buildings building is being approved pursuant to the zoning and general plan designations
for the site.
EXISTING ZONING AND GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION
The General Plan Land Use designation for the site is Business Park (BP)- Existing zoning for the
site is Li (Light Industrial). A variety of industrial uses are permitted within this zone, with the
approval of a Development Plan pursuant to Chapter 17.05 of the Development Code. The project
as proposed, meets ail minimum standards of, and is consistent with, the General Plan,
Development Code and the Design Guidelines.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS
Staff has found that the building as designed with its offset and relief features is consistent with
applicable City policies, standards and guidelines and can make the finding for approval of a
development plan. We believe this project is compatible with the types of uses and quality of
surrounding development, and will represent an aesthetic addition to the City's industrial area.
Therefore, staff recommends that the Planning Commission make the finding for this development
plan and approve PA01-0471 subject to the attached Conditions of Approval.
FINDINGS - DEVELOPMENT PLAN
1. The proposal, an industrial building, is consistent with the land use policies of the Business
Park (BP) land use designation standards of the City of Temecula General Plan, as well as

the type and density of industrial development proposed. The project, as conditioned, is also
consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local ordinances, including
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the City Wide Design Guidelines,
Ordinance No. 655 (Mt. Palomar Lighting Ordinance), the City's Water Efficient Landscaping
provisions, and fire and building codes.
2. 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

BACKGROUND
On January 23, 2001 the City Council certified the Final Environmental Impact Report and approved
PA98-0482 (Environmental Impact Report), PA98-0484 (General ~lan Amendment), PA98-0481
(Wolf Creek Specific Plan No. 12), PA00-0452 (Tentative Tract Ma, p No. 29305) and PA00-0029
(Development Agreement). The City approved the underlying Tentative Tract Map No. 29305 on
February 4, 2000, however the final map for Tentative Tract Map No't 29305 has not been submitted
to the City of Temecula. Planning Application No. PA01-0233 for Tentative Tract Map No. 29798
was submitted on May 11, 2001 and will re-subdivide a portion of T, entative Tract 29305.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The subdivision proposes to subdivide Planning Areas 1, 2, 5, 6, and 9 into 625 single-family lots
consistent with the density allowed by the Wolf Creek Specific Plan. The project is located between
Pala Road and the Redhawk development, northeast of the Pechanga Entertainment Center and
southeast of Highway 79 South and Interstate 15 intersection. The property on which the tract is to
be developed is fiat and is currently undeveloped.
ANALYSIS
Environmental Determination
An Environmental Impact Report and Mitigation Monitoring Plan was approved for the Wolf Creek
Specific Plan No. 12, which addressed all the environmental impacts on the site. Mitigation
measures (described in the Mitigation Monitoring Program), and the Conditions of Approval have
been incorporated as conditions for this application. The application is consistent with the project
description analyzed in the EIR, and no subsequent environmental review is necessary per Section
15162 of the California Environmental Quality Act
Access and Circulation
The circulation plan, as it pertains to school activities, has not been designed to the satisfaction of
the Planning staff. Staff has reviewed numerous circulation alternatives but have not received any
which provide easy access for dropping off children, without having to access Loma Linda Road
and/or Pala Road to return back to the subdivision. Planning staff is requesting that the Planning
Commission discuss circulation options to help reduce vehicle trips onto major collector and arterial
streets.
The access and street cross-sections are consistent with the Specific Plan. Two points of access
will be provided off of Pala Road (@ Interior Loop Road and Wolf Valley Road); two points of access
will be provided off of Loma Linda Road (@ "1" Street and "A" Street);and two points of access will
be provided off of Wolf Valley Road (@ Loop Road and "R-R" Road). Loma Linda Road and the "A"
Street intersection will be signalized aiding access to the middle school site located in Planning Area
3 on lot 3 of Tentative Tract Map 29305-1.
Wolf Valley Road is to be developed to an ultimate right of way width of 110 feet with a 6-foot wide
meandering sidewalk on both sides, and raised medians at critical locations. Loma Linda Road will
be developed to an ultimate right of way width of 78-feet with the Loop Road to be developed to an

Federal permit or license affecting the Nation's waters pursuant to the Clean Water Act. We also
administer the Act. Section 9 of the Act prohibits the "take" (e.g., harm, harass, pursue, injure,
kill) of federally listed wildlife. "Harm" is further defined to include habitat modification or
degradation where it kills or injures wildlife by impairing essential behavioral patterns including
breeding, feeding, or sheltering. Take incidental to otherwise lawful activities can be authorized
under sections 7 (Federal consultations) and 10 (habitat conservation plans) of the Act, or
through a special role under section 4(d) of the Act for federally threatened species. Section 7 of
the Act requires Federal agencies to consult with us if their actions may affect federally listed
species or designated critical habitat.
The project area supports habitat for the federally threatened coastal California gnatcatcher
(Polioptila califomica californica, "gnatcatcher"), and endangered Stephens' kangaroo rat
(Dipodomys stephensi, "SKR"), Quino checkerspot butterfly (Euphydryas editha quino),
Riverside fairy shrimp (Streptocephalus woottoni), Munz's onion (Allium munzii), and Nevin's
barberry (Berberis nevinii). All of the above-mentioned species have been documented within
one mile of the proposed project site.
If habitat for federally listed species occurs on the proposed project site, then protocol surveys
should be conducted to assess if the site is occupied. If any federally listed species are detected
during these surveys, then the project proponent should contact our office to obtain appropriate
incidental take authorization pursuant to either section 7 or 10 of the Act prior to the initiation of
2
Rolfe Preisendanz (FWS-WRIV-1857.1)
ground-disturbing activities. Because the proposed project site occu~ wit. tin t.he boundary of the
' t
Habitat Conservation Plan for the Stephens Kangaroo Ra for Western Rivem~de County,
California (March 1996), compliance with the regional incidental take permit will be required
prior to any ground disturbing activities. Furthermore, if wetlands or'jurisdictional waters of the
United States will be affected by the proposed project, then a section ~04 permit from the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers and/or a 1600 permit from the California Department of Fish and
Game may be required. I
We understand that the CEQA guidelines mandate a finding of significance for any project that
has the potential to reduce the abundance or restrict the range of an efidangered, threatened, or
~ A
rare species. To ensure that future projects are adequately addressed under the CEQ , any
potential adverse effects to federally listed and other sensitive specie~ should be considered
significant, and the City should require all feasible mitigation. For example, any impacts to
ab~tat and/or open space for federally listed and other sensitive species should be considered a
h ' ~ _ . . I. - n
direct, significant, adverse, enwronmental ~mpact under CEQA; ever~ ff habitat has bee
degraded and/or none of these species are detected onsite. In addition, any loss of habitat and/or
open space should be considered a significant cumulative impact because other probable future
projects, in combination with the effects of past projects and ongoin~ activities (e.g., urban
development), will contribute to a significant loss of these resources, and the federally listed and
other sensitive species that depend on them for their long-term survival.
Prior to approving any development applications for this site, the City should evaluate the
regional biological significance of the project site and environs, and how the proposed project
would contribute to further fragmentation, constraints to wildlife movement, loss of habitat, and
alterations of hydrology and other ecosystem processes on a regional.scale. Projects within the
sensitive habitat areas have the potential to limit opportunities for lofig term conservation
planning, and could preclude the creation of a viable reserve system before the multiple-species
habitat conservation plan for western Riverside County is adopted.
We request that the City condition the issuance of all future building!or grading permits within
the zoning area on written confirmation from our agency that the project proponent(s) have
complied with the Act. We appreciate the opportunity to provide comments on the proposed
action and are available to work with the City and future project proponent(s) to avoid, minimize,
and mitigate impacts to federally listed and sensitive species. If you have any questions or
comments regarding this letter, please contact Daniel Marquez of m~ staff at (760) 431-9440.

De~ Rol~:
We have reviewed tiffs project and have the following comments:
Pala Road, Loma Linda Road and Wolf Valley Road have been identified as potential
candidates for transit service in the future. Provided that RTA operational objectives can be
met and finances are available, the following transit features should be included in this project:
Bus turnouts should be constructed on Pala Road at the "A' loop access road, on Loma
Linda Road at "A" Street and on Wolf Valley Road at "V' Street and Loop Roadway
per city or RTA design standards. The exact sight of the amenities to be determined at
the final planning stages.
· Paved, lighted and handicapped accessible pedestrian accessway consistent with ADA
standards should be provided between the stop and the project site.
Construction of paved passenger waiting areas complete with bus shelter, benches,
trash receptacles, proper lighting and provisions for landscaping accents around the stop
location conforming to ADA requirements.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this project. Your efforts to keep us
updated on the status of this request will be very much appreciated. Please let us know when
this project will be completed.

BACKGROUND
Specific Plan No. 4 (Paloma del Sol) was approved by the Riverside County Board of SupE
on September 6, 1988 as County SP-219. Subsequent to incorporation, the Temecula City Council
approved various amendments to the Specific Plan, in the period of time from 1994 through 1999.
A formal submittal for these new amendments was received on February 28, 2001. Staff held a
Development Review Committee Meeting with the applicant on April 5, 2001. From June to the
present, staff has conducted additional meetings with the Applicant on various revisions to the text
and figures in the Specific Plan Amendment and the vesting tentative tract map.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Paloma del Sol Specific Plan Amendment No. 8
· The 15 acres associated with existing Planning Area 27 will be merged into proposed
Planning 28 and designated for Medium Density sihgle-family residential uses. The
commercial uses are being located to the southwestern corner of the project site. A new
Planning Area 27 has been re-located to the south and will be established as 9 acres of
open space. The reconfigured Planning Area 28 has been expanded from 25.0 acres to
49.4 acres. Based on a density of 2-5 density units per acre, the number of dwelling units
will increase from 113 to 190 units.
· The Temecula Valley Unified School District has determined the 10.0 acre elementary
school site planned for Planning Area 29B will instead be located in the Crown Hi
R:~S P Ak2001~01-0102 Paloma D~I Sol #8~PCStafil~pt..doc

development east of the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan. Therefore, the area has been
eliminated and incorporated into Planning Areas 27, 28, and 29.
The 2.9 acre Park and Recreation area designated for existing Planning Area 24 will be
incorporated into the existing GreenbeltJPaseo system. A new Planning Area 24 will .be
designated as a 1.0 acre private Park/Recreation area adjacent to Planning Area 27.
Planning Area 29 remains as a 5.0 acre Park/Recreation area. but, will be relocated north
· of the open space area adjacent to Planning Area 27.
· The commercial uses from Planning Area 27 will replace the Medium High residential uses
in Planning Area 38.
The residential land use designations for Planning Areas 5 and 23 have been lowered from
Medium High (5-8 DU/AC) to Medium (2-5 DU/AC). These changes will result in a reduction
of 3 residential units in Planning Area 5 and a reduction of 107 residential units in Planning
Area 23.
Amendment of General Plan Land Use Map
· The City's General Plan Land Use Map must be amended to reflect the changed land use
designations affected by the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan Amendment.
Vestinq Tentative Tract Map 24188 Amendment No. 4
Amendment No. 4 of Vesting Tentative Tract No. 24188 modifies the previously approved
Amendment No 3 by creating 293 single-family residential lots, 1 recreation center lot, 1
park site lot and 16 open space lots within Planning Areas 26, 27, 28 and 29.
ANALYSIS
Specific Plan Amendment No. 8 proposes to relocate the existing Neighborhood Commercial area
from the southwest comer of Pauba and Butterfield Stage Roads to the southwest comer of De
Portola Road and Campanula Way. With regard to residential uses, the amendment would result in
an overall 2%-3% reduction in residential dwelling units within the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan
boundary. The previously planned elementary school facility proposed for Planning Area 29B has
been eliminated and public and private parks will be reconfigured and relocated.
Specific Plan Amendment No. 8
Relocation of Commercial Area
The applicant is requesting to relocate the 15 acre Neighborhood Commercial area at the
southwest comer of Pauba Road and Butterfield Stage Road (existing Planning Area 27) to the 8
acre Planning Area 38 located within the village center area at De Portola Road and Campanula
Road.
The reason given by the applicant for the proposed relocation includes concern over land use
compatibility issues and their doubts about being able to attract a major commercial tenant. Staff
concurs that a high potential exists for land use conflicts between the currently allowed commercial
R:"~ P A~001',01-0102 Paloma Del Sol #8',PCSIatTRpL.doc
3
development and the existing and proposed residential development that surround the area.
Moreover, staff believes it is appropriate to concentrate commercial development within the
existing village canter area at De Portola Road and Campanula Road. It should be noted
portion of existing Planning Area 27 contains slope constraints. Subsequently, the relocation of the
commercial designation results in a relatively even trade of level developable acreage.
The applicant is proposing to amend the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan Zoning Ordinance to provide
for Commercial Offica/Neighborhood Commercial uses and development standards for Planning
Area 38. Staff has reviewed the proposed uses and development standards within Planning Area
38 and believes they are consistent with the Specific Plan and the long term vision in the General
Plan. In addition, staff believes the expanded commercial area will enhance the village center and
be compatible with surrounding existing and planned uses.
Reduction in Residential Units
The proposed Specific Plan Amendment No. 8 reduces the total number of residential dwelling
units within the overall Paloma del Sol Specific Plan from the currently allowed 5,246 units to a
maximum of 5,137 units, with a potential for as few as 5,072 units. This dwelling unit decrease
represents a 2% to 3% reduction in residential dwelling units. The High and Very High categories
will remain unchanged. The decrease in overall net residential density from 5.1 density units per
acre to 4.9 density units per acre results in the allocation of 'more land to each single family
detached residential unit.
The gross project density also decreases similarly from 3.8 density units per acre to 3.6 density
units per acre. When compared to the 5,604 dwelling units adopted in the original Specific Plan,
the total decrease in residential units ranges from 8% (at 5,137 density units) to 10% (at 5,072
density units).
Elimination of School Site
The existing Planning Area 29B, which was located within the boundary of tract 24188, was
intended to accommodate a 10-acre elementary school facility. However, the Temecula Valley
Unified School District has sinca indicated that the school will actually be located in the Crown Hill
development east of the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan. Therefore, Planning Area 29B will be
eliminated and the 10 acres will be re-allocated for parks, open spaca, and some medium density
residential development.
Parks & Open Spaca Areas
Two neighborhood park/recreation areas will be provided within Tract 24188. Planning Area 29,
which has been reconfigured and relocated slightly, will accommodate a 5.0 acre public
park/recreation area. The facility will be constructed, fully operational and dedicated to the City
prior to the issuance of the first building permit in Tract 24188 excluding the 67 dwelling units in
Tract 24188-1.
Planning Area 24 will accommodate a private 1.0 acre park/recreation area. The facility will be
constructed and fully operable as a private facility to be operated and maintained by the
homeowners association pdor to issuanca of the occupancy permit for the 4,576t~ residential unit
within the specific plan.

General Plan Map Amendment
The General Plan Land Use Map Amendment is necessary to conform to the current General Plan
land uses and development criteria set forth in the proposed Paloma del Sol Specific Plan
Amendment No. 8. The map amendments have been determined to be consistent with the City's
General Plan and both the amended and un-amended portions of the Specific Plan. The proposed
General Plan Land Use Map is located in Exhibit A of Attachment 3.
Vestinq Tentative Parcel Map Amendment No. 4
Amendment No. 4 of Vesting Tentative Tract No. 24188 is located within Planning Areas 26, 27, 28
and 29 of Specific Plan No. 4. The amendment serves to modify Amendment No. 3 by reducing the
number of single-family residential lots from 351 to 293.
Pedestrian Connections
Staff has worked with the applicant to incorporate throe separate pedestrian connections into Tract
24188 so as to enhance a pedestrian's ability to access adjacent stroets and land uses. One
connection shall occur between Stroet "D" and Butterfield Stage Road. A second access will
connect Stroet "O" with Butteffield Stage Road. And a third connection, located within the interior of
the tract, will provide pedestrian access between Streets 'G" and 'K". The proposed Vesting
Tentative Tract Map is located in Exhibit B of Attachment No. 6.
Environmental Issues
Lots "F", "G", and "H" of Tract 24188 have been designed in conformance with Planning Area No.
27 which is designated as a 9.0 acre natural open space area. The layout of these lots serves to
ensure that impacts to an existing drainage and wetland within the planning area will be fully
avoided.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The Paloma del Sol Specific Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR No. 235) was approved and
certified by the County of Riverside on September 6, 1988. Since that date Addendum No. 1 was
certified in conjunction with Amendment No. 4 to the Specific Plan, which added a Development
Agreement to the project. Addendum No. 2 was adopted on March 17, 1999 by the City of
Temecula in conjunction with an evaluation of additional facilities and uses to the Specific Plan.
Addendum No. 3 was adopted on October 19, 1999 by the City in conjunction with an overall
roduction of dwelling units and roalignment of Campanula Way.
Addendum No. 4 to the Final EIR has been proparod to assess the environmental impacts
associated with Amendment No. 8 to the Specific Plan. The analysis concludes, as noted in Table
1 Comparative Analysis of Impacts and Mitigation Measures that changes in project impacts as a
rosult of Amendment No. 8 aro either unchanged or decreased, and no additional mitigation
measures are roquirod. Staff acknowledges the overriding consideration with rogards to air quality
impacts made by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors during the original certification of
Environmental Impact Report No. 235. Staff concludes that environmental concerns regarding the
project have been adequately addrossed.

SUMMARYICONCLUSIONS
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission Certify Addendum No. 4 to Environmental Im
Report No. 235, and approve the General Plan Amendment and amendment No. 6 to the Paloma
del Sol Specific Plan.
FINDINGS
1. The proposed Specific Plan Amendment is consistent with the General Plan and
Development Code. The Specific Plan is a reallocation and redistribution of the majority of
the existing Land Use Designations and serves as an implementation tool for the General
Plan. Therefore, as proposed, the Specific Plan is consistent with the General Plan, as it is
proposed to be amended, and Development Code.
2. The proposed Specific Plan Amendment would not be ~detrimental to the public interest,
health, safety, convenience or welfare of the city. The project has been reviewed by
agencies and staff, and is determined to be in conformance with the City's General Plan (as
it is proposed to be amended), Development Code,. Design Guidelines and Growth
Management Program Action Plan. These documents set policies and standards that
protect the health, safety and welfare of the community., In addition, the Specific Plan is a
master planned community with specific design guidelines and standards that ensure
compatibility and interface with the surrounding community in terms of density, design and
circulation. Therefore, as proposed, conditioned and designed, the Specific Plan is
compatible with the health, safety and welfare of the community.
3. The subject property is physically suitable for the requested amended land use
designations and the anticipated land use developments. There are no physical constraints
of the site which would preclude or prohibit the requested land use designations or
anticipated developments.
4. The proposed project shall ensure development of desirable character that will be
compatible with existing and proposed development in the surrounding neighborhood, The
project proposes similar residential land uses adjacent to the existing surrounding
neighborhoods. The Community/Neighborhood Commercial development is proposed
within a Village Center and is designed to be pedestrian oriented to serve the needs of the
Paloma del Sol community and is adjacent to Highway 79 South where similar commercial
and retail uses currently exist along the Highway corridor.

Temecula in conjunction with an overall reduction of in dwelling units and the reconfiguration and
realignment of Campanula Way,
The analysis associated with the Addendum No. 4 to Environmental Impact Report No, 235
concludes that changes in project impacts as a result of Amendment No. 8 are either unchanged or
decreased from the original project and that no additional mitigation measures are required, The
Planning Commission acknowledges the overriding consideration with regard to air quality impacts
made by the Riverside County Board of Supervisors dudng the original certification of Environmental
Impact Report No. 235. Staff concludes that the environmental concerns regarding the project have
been adequately addressed,

ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235
I. INTRODUCTION
A. BACKGROUND
The Paloma del Sol Specific Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR No. 235) was approved and
certified by the County of Riverside on September 6, 1988. Addendum No. I was prepared in
conjunction with Amendment No. 4 of the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan No. 219 and was certified
by the Ternecula City Council in 1992. Addendum No. I added a Development Agreement which
did not change the physical impacts identified in the EIR since it only dealt with collection of fees,
improvements to parks and dedication of parks to the City for maintenance. When Amendments No.
5 and 6 were approved in January of 1997 and lanuary of 1998 respectively, the City Council
determined that the project was consistent with a project for Which an EIR had already been
prepared. Therefore, the Council concluded that no further environmental analysis was required for
these amendments. Addendum No. 2 was adopted on March 17, 1999 by the City of Temecula.
Addendum No. 2 evaluated institutions such as facilities for the aged, congregate care residential
facilities, information center and nursery schools and found that no additional environmental impact
evaluation would be required. Addendum No. 3 evaluated the potential impacts resulting from
Specific Plan Amendment No. 7, which is referred to herein as the "Approved Project.". This
Addendum (Addendum No. 4) evaluates the current project, which is discussedin full in Specific
Plan Amendment No. 219 and is referred to herein as the "Proposed Project." The original Paloma
del Sol EIR No. 235 and Addendum Numbers 1, 2 and 3 are hereby incorporated by reference into
this document. Copies of the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan and subsequent Amendments, as
well as the original Paloma del Sol EIR No. 235 and all four addendums (i.e., Addendums Nos. 1, 2,
3 and 4), are available at the City of Temecula Planning Department, 43200 Business Park Drive,
Temecula, California 92590.
According to Section 21166 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), no subsequent or
supplement environmental impact report is required for the project unless one or more of the
following events occur: (1) substantial changes are proposed in the project that will require major
revisions of the gl'R; (2) substantial changes occur with respect to cimurastances under which the
project is being undertaken that require major revisions in the EIR; or (3) new information which
was not known at the time that the EIR was certified and completed becomes available.. None of the
situations have occurred as a result of Amendment No. 8.
By statute, the environmental analysis need not examine those significant effects of the subsequent
projects that: (1) have already have been mitigated or avoided as part of the prior project approval,
as evidenced in the findings adopted for the prior project, or (2) that were "examined at a sufficient
level of detail" in the prior EIR that they can "be mitigated or avoided by site specific revisions, the
impositions of conditions, or by other means in connection with the approval of the latter project."
(Public Resources Code {}21094, subd. (a).) Thus, this Addendum ~Addendum No. 4) only addresses
those project-related effects that have changed since the original EIR and subsequent Addendums
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 2 of 36 October 26, 2001
ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO 235
(Addendum No. 3 in particular) were certified and which m/ght' feasibly result in potentially
significant impacts.
When the current project (Amendment No. 8 to Paloma del Sol Specific Plan 219) is compared to the
original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan No. 219 project, there is a decrease of 474 dwelling units and
8.5 acres of commercial uses.
This document constitutes Addendum No. 4 to Environmental Impact Report (EIR) No. 235, which
was certified on September 6, 1988 (SCH#8707003). EIR No. 235 analYZed the potential
environmental impacts associated with implementation of the approved Paloma del Sol Specific
Plan. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), an addendum to an existing
F_IR is appropriate where, in order to comply with CEQA, the EIR requires only "minor technical
changes or additions" that do not raise important new issues about the significant effects on the
environment' (CEQA Guidelines § 15164). A variety of land use changes were incorporated into
Amendments No. 4 through No. 7 of the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan No. 219. For the
purposes of this Addendum a comparison will be made between the original approved Paloma del
Sol Specific Plan and the proposed land use changes for Paloma del Sol Amendment No. 8.
Appwved land uses changes for Amendments No. 4 through No. 7 and the proposed land use
changes for Amendment No. 8 are described below:
Amendments 1, 2, and 3 were prepared under County jurisdiction and there are no records to
be referenced for them.
The following Amendments were prepared under City of Temecula jurisdiction and are described
below:
Amendment No. 4 added 6.5 acres of Very High density residential to Planning Area 6. It
also added 1.5 acres of park to Planning Area 37, reduced community/neighborhood
commercial area in Planning Area 1 by 4.9 acres, and reduced major roads by 3.1 acres.
Amendment No. 5 resulted in several Land Use Plan modifications, including:
An increase in the number of Medium density dwelling units from 2,338 to 2,487;
A reduction in the number of Medium-High density dwelling units from 2,356 to
2,251;
A reduction in the number of multi-family dwelling units from 910 to 590;
A 4.0-acre park/recreation area site;
An increase in the community/neighborhood commercial acreage from 31.5 .acres to
32.3 acres; and
A reduction in the roadway landscape requirements adjacent to commercial uses.
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 3 of 36 October 26, 2001
ADDES _ _t M_ NO. 4 TO EIR 235
Amendment No. 6 encompassed several minor changes to the Specific Plan, including plan
revisions in Planning Areas 2, 28 and 29A. The park in Planning Area 29A was increased
from 4.0 acres to 5.0 acres. Planning Area 28 was reduced in size by one acre, resulting in a
reduction of dwelling units from 117 to 113. The dwelling units were transferred to Planning
Area 2, bringing the total number of units in Planning Area 2 up to 120. Roadway cross-
sections and standards were updated to conform to the City's General Plan. Access points
and neighborhood entries on certain planning areas were relocated to conform to the
approved Tentative Tract Maps. Streets "G" and "IT' were renamed as Campanula Way.
The phasing plan was revised to reflect current expectations. Overall, Specific Plan
Amendment No. 6 did not result in any total acreage or dwelling unit changes.
Amendment No. 7 involved land use changes in Planning Areas 1, 6, and 8 and the alteration
of Campanula Way between De Portola Road and Meadows Parkway. Planning Area 8,
designated in Amendment No. 6 as Medium Density Residential, was revised to allow a
Medium Density Senior Community. The size and number of dwelling units remained the
sa_me.
Planning Area 6, already designated as Very High density residential, was reconfignred to
include both High and Very High density residential and reduced in size to accommodate the
expansion of Planning Area 1. Due to this density division and size reduction, Planning Area
6 was divided into Planning Area 6A (High Residential) and Planning Area 6B (Very High
Residential). Combined, Planning Areas 6A and 6B were proposed to contain 508 dwelling
units; which was a reduction of 82 dwelling units from the approved number of dwelling
units (590 dwelling units).
Planning Area 1 was increased in' size from 32.3 to 35.0 acres. As part of the proposed
changes to Planning Area 1 an application was submitted to the City of Temecula to process
Amendment No. 7 to the Specific Plan in conjunction with a Development Plan and a
Development Agreement, both pertaining only to a poFdon of Planning Area 1. The
Development Plan permits the construction of a 276,243 square foot community commercial
center of focused retail villages on 24 acres. In addition, Campanula Way was realigned and
reconfigured between De Portola Road and Meadows Parkway from a 100-foot fight-of-way
to a 78-foot right-of-way with "rounded out" traffic circles and a four-way stop or signalized
intersection.
The proposed Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan involves a reduction of
the total number of residential dwelling units within the overall Paloma del Sol Specific Plan
from the currently entitled 5,246 dwelling units to no more than 5,137 units and as few as
5,072 units. This represents a reduction of residential dwelling units between 2.1% and
3.3%. The High and Very High Residential categories remain unchanged. The decrease in
overall net residential density from 5.1 du/ac to 4.9 du/ac results in the allocation of more
land to each single-family detached residential unit. Similarly, the gross project density has
decreased from 3.8 alu/ac to 3.6 du/ac. When compared to the 5,604 dwelling units adopted
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 4 of 36 October 26, 2001
ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235
in the original Specific Plan, the total decrease in residential units lies between 8.3% (at
5,137 du) and 9.5% (at 5,072 du).
The commemial uses planned for Planning Area 27 at the comer of Pauba and Butterfield
Stage Roads have been relocated to Planning Area 38, adjacent to the south side of De
Portola Road. The deletion of the commercial center in Planning Area 27 resulted in land
use changes for Planning Areas 24, 28, and 29 as well. Planning Area 27 in Amendment No.
8 has been designated as a 9.0-acre natural open space area designed to preserve some
existing on-site wetland vegetation. Planning Area 28 has expanded from 25.0 acres of
Medium density residential uses in Amendment No. 7 to 49.4 acres of Medium density
residential uses in Amendment No. 8. The number of dwellings proposed in Planning 28
increased fi.om 113 to 190 units as a result of removal of the commercial development.
However, there was a corresponding decrease in the amount of residential development as a
result of P.A. 38 converting from Medium-High Residential to Commercial.
Planning Area 29 remains as a Park/Recreation Area, but the location and configuration of
the parcel are somewhat altered. However, the acreage of this Park/Recreation Arearcmains
unchanged at 5.0 acres. In addition, the elementary school proposed for Planning Area 29B
in previous Amendments has been deleted since the Temecula Valley Unified School District
(TVUSD) has indicated that the site is no longer needed. Another change involves the
marion of a new Park/Recreation Area in Planning Area 24, which is located adjacent to the
Planning Area 27 Open Space. The former Planning Area 24 (formerly designated in
Amendment No. 7 as a Park/Recreation Area situated between Planning Areas 13 and 23)
has been merged into the greenbelt system and is no longer identified as a Park/Recreation
Area or a separate planning area.
Due to remaining high demand for commercial uses in the village center area near the
supermarket and the Home Depot, Paloma del Sol Specific Plan Amendment No. 8 proposes
that the residential uses allocated for Planning Area 38 be converted to
Community/Neighborhood Commercial. Planning Area 38 will incorporate the same
develop-merit standards that now apply to Planning Area 1.
Specific Plan Amendment No. 8 also proposes several minor residential dwelling unit
adjustments to reflect the approved and constructed implementing tracts.
Acreage and dwelling unit comparisons between the original Specific Plan for Paloma del
Sol and Amendment No. 8 are illustrated below in Table 1, Summary of Land Use Changes:

H. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
For the purposes of this environmental analysis, the existing or "baseline" condition is assumed to be
the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan No. 219.
A. SEISMIC SAFETY
'O
Previously Identified Impacts
Several geotechnical investigations! were conducted on the project site, which concluded that
the site does not have any active faults within its boundaries. The site is expected to
experience ground motion from earthquakes on regional and/or local causative faults. The
dominant seismic feature in the project vicinity is the northwest striking Elsinore Fault Zone.
The site is subject to liquefaction in the southwestern portion of the site where the flat
alluviated flood plain of Temecula Creek is located. When mitigation measures are
implemented, the impacts regarding seismic hazards are considered non-significant.
Mitigation measures contained in the EIR include: (1) Conformance with the latest Uniform
Building Code and City Ordinances can be expected to satisfactorily mitigate the effect of
seismic groundshaking; (2) Mitigation of the liquefaction potential within the southern
portion of the site will occur as a result of project development, which will lower artificially
high ground water levels byremovai of recharge ponds, as well as increased overburden as a
result of site grading; (3) During site development, additional geological evaluation should
be continued in order to verify the extent and relative age of fault activity, according to
Pacific Soils Engineering,/nc.
Analysis of Changed Project Impacts
Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan proposes 5,072 dwelling units without
a senior community option and 5,137 units if the senior community option and the dwelling
unit option for the proposed office designation are implemented. For the pu~ses of this
Addendum, the EIR has assumed a worst case scenario and evaluated the impacts associated
with a 5,137 unit project. As such, the current project proposes 474 units fewer than
proposed in the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan, which proposed 5,611 units. The 474
dwelling unit reduction would result in 1,342 fewer project residents (based upon City of
Temecula General Plan's generation factor of 2.83 persons per dwelling unit). Consequently,
fewer residents will be exposed to seismic safety hazards, including ground shaking. The
extent of project impacts upon existing seismic conditions will be the same since no increase

According to the original Geotechmcal Report, there Y
geotechnical constraints associated with the project. However, some of the existing
landforms will be altered by grading, moderate to severe erosion may exist if graded slopes
are unprotected, and three potential landslide areas may be present on-site.
Mitigation measures required to alleviate impacts from the Paloma del Sol project are as
follows: 1) alluvial and colluvial soils removal should be developed during Tentative Map
studies and be incorporated into grading; 2) temporary ground cover will be provided to
prevent erosion during the construction phase; 3) grading shall be done in stages to lessen
erosion; and 4) final slopes will be contour-graded and will blend with existing natural
contours.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan will require the same physical
alteration of the property resulting in similar impacts to slopes and erosion. Amendment No.
8 maintains the same amount of area being disrupted by grading. The proposed grading plan
identifies approximately the same quantities of earthwork. Impacts to slopes on-site will be
similar and the potential for erosion will remain high. These impacts, however, can be
reduced to an insignificant level through implementation of the mitigation measures
contained in EIR No. 235. No additional or revised mitigation measures are proposed.
C. WIND EROSION AND BLOWSAND
Previously Identified Impacts:
The project is not located within the wind/erosion or blowsand area designated within the
City of Temecula's General Plan and is not considered an area of concern. This issue was not
addressed in the adopted ~IR.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
This issue was not addressed in the adopted EIR, and does not need to be discussed in this
addendum (i.e., Addendum No. 4 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan, Amendment No. 8).

ADDSNnUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235
D. FLOODING
Previously Identified Impacts
The hydrology report prepared for the project concluded that implementation of the Paloma
del Sol Land Use Plan would result in the alteration of existing on-site drainage patterns.
The project would result in the creation of impermeable surfaces on-site resulting in an
increase to the existing 100-year storm runoff. The project site also lies within the Dam
Inundation Area for a 100-year event for Vail Lake dam. The Assessment District 159 has
been created to mitigate potential flooding impacts to Temecula Creek. All standards of the
Riverside County Flood Control District will be met, and erosion control devices will be
installed in development areas to mitigate the effect of increased runoff at points of
discharge.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan, which reconfigures land uses and
roadways described in the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan, would not effect existing or
proposed flooding conditions any differently than previously approved Specific Plan
Amendments. Also, the proposed project would not significantly increase or reduce the
amount of land to be graded in excess of the grading already approved by the City. The
amended land use plan would still result in short term downstream impacts related to erosion
and sedimentation during grading and the creation of impermeable surfaces. Since the
proposed project would not result in any new flood-related impacts that have not already
been evaluated and approved for previous Specific Plan Amendments, then no new
mitigation measures would be required. The mitigation measures identified in EIR No. 235
and previous Addenda will adequately ensure that the degree ufexisting mitigation measures
is sufficient and that no additional mitigation measures will be required.
E. Nome
Previously Identified Impacts
In the adopted E1R No. 235, noise-related impacts would be generated from both short-term
and long-term sources. The short-term sources are consmaction-related activities at the time
of project implementation; the long-term sources are vehicular traffic produced by the
project. There is minor existing noise associated with traffic on Highway 79 South, which is
mitigated by expanded setbacks that reduce traffic noise levels to below a level of
significance. This amendment does not change the situation in any way, so new mitigation
measures are not required.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan results in approximately the same
amount of grading as previously identified, therefore, short-term noise impacts related to
grading activities are expected to remain unchanged. The reduction of 474 residences from
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 11 of 36 October 26, 2001
No. 4 TO 235
D
the residential component of the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan will also shorten the
duration of short-term noise impacts associated with home building activities.
Amendment No. 8 proposes fewer dwelling units and fewer acres of commercial
development than the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan; therefore, no additional or
revised mitigation measures are necessary.
CLIMATE AND AIR QUALITY
Previously Identified Impacts
Air quality impacts associated with Paloma del Sol include both short-term and long-term
impacts. Short-term impacts (at the time of the original EIR) result from project grading and
long-term impacts are associated with project build out. Shod-term air quality impacts will
result from pollutant emissions from construction equipment and the dust generated during
grading and site preparation. Short-term impacts resulting from construction activities are
considered insignificant because they do not reach significant impact thresholds established
by Southern California Air Quality Management DisU'ict (SCAQMD). Construction-related
significance thresholds, according to SCAQMD, are.based on exceeding any of the
following: 550 pounds per day of Carbon Monoxide, 75 pounds per day of Reactive Organic
.Gases, 100 pounds per day of Oxides of Nitrogen, 150 pounds per day of Oxides of Sulphur,
or 150 pounds per day of Particulate Matter. The primary source of long-term impacts to air
quality is automobile emissions. Other emissions will be generated from residential and
commercial natural gas and electricity consumption. Long-term air quality impacts are
considered significant with respect to carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, particulates, and
reactive organic gas emissions. Mitigation at the grading and construction phase of the
project included watering graded surfaces and planting ground cover to reduce short-term
impacts to a level of insignificance. The project will integrate design elements such as transit
facilities, energy efficient buildings, and solar access orientation of structures to reduce long-
term impacts. Despite these measures, long-term impacts to air quality represent a
significant adverse impact which required a statement of overriding considerations.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan does not propose any additional
grading of the property outside of the area, which was previously evaluated in EIR No. 235.
The proposed land use plan decreases dwelling unit density on-site and does not increase the
overall .amount of developable area. Additionally, Paloma del Sol currently will not exceed
SCAQMD significant impact thresholds because the site only requires minimal grading since
mass grading has already occurred in conjunction with adjacent residential and commercial
projects. NO additional or revised mitigation measures are proposed in conjunction with
Amendment No. 8. EIR No. 235 concluded that air quality impacts would remain a
significant adverse impact, which required a Statement of Overriding Considerations.
Amendment No. 8 will not substantially change the conclusions reached previously.

ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235
O
WA~RQU~ITY
Previously Identified Impacts
Construction of the Paloma del Sol project will alter the composition of surface runoff.
Build out of Paloma del Sol will result in impervious surfaces and irrigated landscaped areas.
Runoff entering the storm drain system will contain urban pollutants such as pesticides,
fertilizers, and automobile related residues which will contribute to the incremental
degradation of water downstream in Temecula and Murrieta creeks. Erosion control
techniques will be implemented to reduce the mounts of sedimentation entering both
Creeks. Additionally, the project will comply with requirements of the California State
Water Quality Control Board with respect to urban runoff control. By implementing the
following mitigation measures, the level of impacts related to water quality are not
considered significant.
In order to mitigate for water quality impacts, the project will comply with the Riverside
County Flood Control District requirements regarding erosion control devices during grading
(e.g., berms, culverts, sand-bagging and desilting basins), and the employment of the ''Water
Pollution Aspects of Street Surface Contaminants" program published by the U.S..
Environmental Protection Agency.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan does not propose any development
outside of the area that was previously evaluated in EIR No. 235. The proposed land use
plan reduces the number of dwelling units and slightly increases acreage of commercial land
use; however, it does not increase the overall developable area. Mitigation measures
contained in EIR No. 235 would be implemented to ensure that water quality impacts remain
at a level of insignificance. No additional or revised mitigation measures are pwposed.
Toxic SUBSTANCES
Previously Identified ImpactsfMifigation
The project is not anticipated to produce toxic substances. This issue was not addressed in
the adopted EIR; therefore, no mitigation is necessary.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
This issue was not addressed in the adopted F~IR, and does not need to be discussed in this
addendum (ge., Addendum No. 4 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan, Amendment No. 8).
Previously Identified Impacts
The Paloma del Sol project site was used for dryland farming and grazing by sheep and
cattle, however, it was not designated as prime, statewide important, unique or locally
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 13 of 36 October 26, 2001
ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO ffi 235
important farmland within the Environmental Hazards and Resources Element of the
Comprehensive General Plan (Riverside County). In addition, the site has minor Class I and
Class II agricultural soils. Due to these two factors, the discontinuation of farming on this
site is not considered significant and, therefore, does not require mitigation. A portion of the
site has already been mass graded as well.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
Although Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan reconfigures land uses and
slightly alters roadways, it does not substantially increase/reduce the amount of land being
graded. Thc same amount of impacts to agriculture will occur with thc proposed changes in
Amendment No. 8 as with the adopted Specific Plan No. 219 and EIR No. 235. As such, no
mitigation is required.
OPEN SPACE AND CONSERVATION
Previously Identified Impacts
Amendment No. 7 includes 32.5 acres of parks/recreation areas, 28.0 acres of greenbelts, and
82.0 acres of roadway paseos for a park and recreation total acreage of combined 142.5
acres.. The approved Development Agreement allows for parks, greenbelts, and roadway
paseos to count toward park and recreation credit. The land use changes included in the
adopted Paloma del Sol Specific Plan (i.e., Amendment No. 7) did not involve any increase
in project open space and conservation impacts; therefore, no additional or revised mitigation
was required.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
Amendment No. 8 to Specific Plan No. 219 includes land use changes that include the new
provision of 910 acres of Open Space (i.e., Planning Area 27) for drainage and wetland
vegetation preservation purposes. This Open Space category did not existing in the original
Specific Plan No. 219 or in the adopted Specific Plan No. 219 (i.e., Amendment No. 7). The
land use changes associated with the Proposed Project (i.e., Amendment No. 8) would not
involve any increase in project Open Space and Conservation impacts. Therefore, no
additional or revised mitigation are warranted.
WILDLIFE/VEGETATION
Previously Identified Impacts
A Biological Assessment3 for Paloma del Sol was prepared in 1987 to determine project
impacts to existing biological resoumes on-site, and the following represent the findings at
that time. When this assessment was completed, introduced grassland covered the majority
of the site, which was due, at least partly, to past agricultural and grazing practices on the
Biological Assessment for Vail Meadows (May 1987)
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 14 of 36 October 26, 2001
ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235
site. In the extreme southern, western, central, and eastern portions of the site, coastal sage
scrub was found. The site potentially provided habitat for the Stephens' Kangaroo Rat and
several "Blue-linen avian species and was considered an important raptor wintering area.
At that time, direct impacts would have resulted from construction-related activities
including cut, fill and other grading activities necessary for roads, building pads, utilities,
fuel modification and flood control. There may be some indirect impacts such as noise, light
and glare and the introduction of domesticated animals (dogs and cats).
Three updates to the original biological assessment have been prepared as follows: A Quino
Checkerspot butterfly (QCB) Survey4 completed in 1999, a Final Paloma del Sol Stephens'
Kangaroo Rat Update Survey on May 30, 1996 (done by Biodiversity Associates), and a
Focused Survey for California gnatcatcher completed on December 28, 1995 (done by
Pacific Southwest Biological Services). These studies found that virtually no native
vegetation now exists on the site as a result of:
· Diking associated with past dry farming, weed abatement and cattle grazing;
Grading associated with construction of the roadways (De Ponola .Road, Meadows
Parkway, Margarita Road, Plo Pico Road, Montelegro Way, and I.~ena Way), and a haul
road used to transport dirt used for construction of the supermarket/shopping center and
sports park northeast of. the intersection of State Highway 79 South and Margarita Road;
and
· Grading for construction of the future extension of Meadows Parkway along the eastern
tract boundary between Leena Way and De Portola Road.
No Quino Checkerspot butterfly adults were observed during any flight surveys and no
potentially suitable habitat components occur within the site. Although two small areas of
dwarf plantain (the primary host plant) were encountered, they represent too small of an area
to provide an adequate amount of host plant or nectary plants to support QCB. Also, there
were no observations made of California gnatcatchers on the site. Because there are no
existing sensitive species on site, there will be no impacts by construction.
Although the site is located within a potential habitat area for Stephens' Kangaroo Rat, it is
also within the Stephens Kangaroo Rat Habitat Conservation Plan. The Paloma del Sol
project has complied with all applicable requirement of this program. Therefore, no further
mitigation is required.

At the time of the original analysis, the site contained four blueline streams as depicted on
U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) topographic maps. The jurisdictional boundaries for these
s~eams were mapped in December 1995 and January 1996 by Glenn Lukos Associates, a
biological resources firm, using the most up-to-date regulations and written policies in
conjunction with guidance from the regulatory agencies.
Three of the four jurisdictional areas were graded and removed in conformance with permits
issued by the ACOE.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
Amendment No. 8 to the Specific Plan would result in approximately the same amount of
area disrupted by grading activity as the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan and the
Adopted Project (i.e., Amendment No. 7). It should be noted that mass grading on the site
has already occurred. Three of the four jurisdictional areas on*site would be permanently
impacted by the proposed project, except for the jurisdictional area and wetland that would
be preserved within permanent natural open space in Planning Area 27.
The Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) has jurisdiction over approximately 7.13 acres of the
project site, of which 1.32 acres consists of jurisdictional wetlands. ~The proposed Specific
Plan Amendment No. 8 project would avoid impacts to an existing drainage area (2.18 acres
that is under the ACOE jurisdiction, including 0.84-acre, which has been identified as an
ACOE jurisdictional wetland) by preserving the area within a 7.1-acre natural open space
area (Planning Area 27).
As mentioned above, the ACOE, in addition to the CDFG, also has jurisdiction over this
same area. With incorporation of the open space feature (Planning Area 27), any potential
impacts to this jurisdictional wetlands would be mitigated to below a level of significance. It
should be noted, that the portions of the project have already been constructed or are in the
process of being constructed. Mitigation of the impacts associated with on-site biological
resources has already been approved by the City and is currently underway. Preservation of
Planning Area 27 for drainage corridor purposes, responds to previous mitigation measures.
All other mitigation for the other jurisdictional areas on-site will remain the same as that
identified in the original EIR and previous Addendums.
In summary, the direct impacts associated with Amendment No. 8 to the Specific Plan would
be similar to or less than the impacts associated with the original Specific Plan. Because a
significant loss of native plants is not expected, and sensitive wildlife species are not
expected to be significantly impacted, no additional mitigation is required by Amendment
No. 8 of the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan.

MINERAL RESOURCES
Previously Identified Impacts/Mitigation
The State Division of Mines and Geology has prepared mineral resource reports designating
mineral deposits of statewide or regional significance. The State Geologist has classified
areas into IVl. ineral ResoUrCes Zones (MRZ) and Scientific Resource Zones (SZ). The zones
identify the statewide or regional significance of mineral deposits based on the economic
value of the deposits and accessibility. As discussed in the Open Space/Conservation
Element of the City of Temecula General Plan, the zoning classification of lVl~-3a has been
applied to the City and its Sphere of Influence by the State. '~rhe lvlRZ-3 areas contain
sedimentary deposits which have the potential for supplying sand and gravel for concrete and
crushed stone for aggregate, however, these areas are determined as not containing deposits
of significance economic value based on the available data? Therefore, potential impacts to
mineral resources resulting from implementation of the Approved Project (i.e., Paloma del
Sol Specific Plan, Amendment No. 7) would be below a level of significance, and as such, no
mitigation is required.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
The area and extent of impact for the Proposed Project (i.e., Amendment No. 8) would be the
same as the area and extent of impact for the Approved Project (i.e., Amendment No. 7).
Therefore, there would be no change in the level of anticipated impacts to mineral resources,
and no mitigation measures would be required:
ENERGY RESOURCES
Previously Identified Impacts
Development within Paloma del Sol will increase energy consumption for motor vehicle
movement, space and water heating, lighting, home appliance use, and construction
equipment manufacturing and operation. Natural gas demand for the approved Paloma del
Sol Specific Plan was calculated at 39,133,910 cubic feet per month. On-site electricity
demand was estimated to be 42,030,975 kilowatts per year.
In order to reduce impacts to a level below significance, the following measures shall be
employed: (1) Passive solar heating techniques such as double-pane windows, adequate roof
overhangs and proper building insulation; (2) Space and water heating should be provided
via gas instead of electricity; and (3) compliance with Title 24 of the California
Administrative Code.

PALOMA DEL SOL Page 17 of 36 October 26, 2001
AnnENDt M NO. 4 TO 235
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
The original Paloma del Sol Specific plan proposed 5,611 dwelling units and 54 acres of
commemial land uses. Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan proposes a
maximum of 5,137 dwelling units (assumes senior housing option) and 45.5 acres of
commercial land uses, resulting in a reduction of 474 dwelling units and a decrease of 8.5
acres of commercial uses. Project impacts to energy resources will therefore decrease energy
consumption by 2,882,394 kwh/mt/year for residential dwellings and by 1,189,645 kwh per
square foot per year for commemial uses (assumes an average floor area ratio of 0.21 for
commemial uses). The net result is a decrease in electricity demand of approximately
4,072,039 kwhJunit/year.(a 9.7% overall reduction in energy usage) when compared with the
estimated electricity demand in the original Paloma del Sol EIR. Therefore, potential impacts
to electricity would decrease slightly.
In comparison to the project impacts for the original Specific Plan, Amendment No 8 impacts
to natural gas conserves would result in a decrease in natural consumption by 3,159,210
kwh]unit/year for residential dwellings and by 225,488 kwh per square foot per year for
commercial uses (assumes an average floor area ratio of 0.21). This would result in an
overall net decrease in natural gas demand of approximately 8.6% when compared with the
estimated natural gas consumption for the original Specific Plan as assessed in the original
Paloma del Sol EIR.
SCENIC ItlGItWAYS
Previously Identified Impacts
The project site is directly bordered by a designated scenic highway (Highway 79 South).
Mitigation measures to protect this area along the project frontage will include special
setback and landscaping concepts to buffer the site from traffic and enhance the project's
visual image for drivers and persons viewing the site from adjoining properties.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan does not propose any significant
changes to the design guidelines of the Specific Plan. Therefore, impacts to the County-
designated eligible scenic highway (Highway 79 South) will continue to be mitigated to
below a level of significance. No additional or revised mitigation measures are proposed.

CULTURAL AND SCIEN'rI~'IC RESOURCES
Previously Identified Impacts
The Paloma del Sol Specific Plan was surveyed for cultural resources in 1979 and was
incorporated into a report6. Cultural resources are classified as both archaeological and
paleontological resources. One prehistoric and one historic resource were identified on-site.
The historic site no longer exists on-site. The prehistoric site consisted of two uhifacial
manos and a 40m X 20m area of sporadic occupation.
In order to mitigate this prehistoric site, it is recommended that the ground cover be reduced
by removal of vegetation and trash to provide better surface visibility and all artifacts and
features mapped and collected. Subsurface testing shall be conducted consisting minimally
of two lm x lm excavation units.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
A report, Cultural Resource Management Investigations of the Paloma del Sol Development
Temecula, California, was completed September 24, 1996 by Chris E. Drover, Ph.D. The
report indicated that none of the cultural resource sites to be impacted are likely to yield any
further significant information and that grading could proceed, but should be monitored in
the vicinity of the cultural deposits. Since preparation of that report, mass grading of the
project site has occurred. Native American representatives from the Pechanga Band of the
Luisefio tribe were present during all test excavations, and a qualified monitor has been
present during project grading operations for archaeological monitoring purposes. No
additional mitigation measures will be needed.
CIRCULATION AND
Previously Identified Impacts
The Riverside County Master Plan of Highways was used in preparing the original EIR.- The
Paloma del Sol project site has since been incorporated as a part of the City of Temecula and
is subject to the criteria and standards set forth in the City's Circulation Element. The Vail
Meadows Development, Traffic Impact Study was prepared by Wilbur Smith Associates for
the Vail Meadows project (now the "Paloma del Sol" project) in November 1987. In
September 1999, Wilbur Smith Associates prepared an update to the traffic report entitled,
Traffic Impact Study for Plaza Del Sol Commercial Center (now called the "Villages at
Paseo Del Sol"). This update related specifically to Planning Areas l(a) and l(b), which
border the north side of Highway 79 South. Wilbur Smith Associates prepared a partial
traffic update in February 2001, which evaluated the traffic generation impacts associated
eCu/tara/Resource lnvenwrj and Impact Az~essment for the KACOR/'Rancho Ca//forn/a Property (July 30 and
August 10, 1979).

· with the land use changes proposed in Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific
Plan.
A multi-step methodology was used to estimate the projected traffic forecasts in these
studies. The first step was to determine project trip generation, which estimates the total
arriving and departing traffic at the project site on a peak hour and daily basis. The second
step of the forecasting process was project traffic distribution, which involves the
development of a geographic uip distribution pattern that identifies the origins/destinations
of project traffic. The third step was project traffic assignment, by which project-generated
trips are allocated to the street system.
Project generated traffic was calculated at approximately 42,055 vehicle trips per day based
on the land use mix proposed in the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan No. 219 as
analyzed in the certified RIR No. 235. Based upon project generated traffic and associated
impacts to roadway segment and intersections within the project vicinity, mitgadon
measures were identified consisting of roadway and intersection improvements.
Recommended long range roadway improvement needs in the project vicinity (which
resulted from the specific plan build-out and cumulative area development traffic impact
analysis) were identified as follows: (1) extension of Meadows Parkway from De Portola
Road, south to State Route 79, (2) signalization at State Route 79 and Margarita Road
Intersection, State Route 79 and Meadows Parkway Intersection, and at Margarita Road and
designated "gateway" street (south of Panba Road), (3) provision of 4-lanes on: Meadows
Parkway between State Route 79 and De Portola Road, designated secondary road
connecting Meadows Parkway to De Ponola Road, which provides access to the proposed
community shopping center, and, designated "gateway" streets, (4) inclusion of separate left
and right turn lanes at certain intersections, and (5) the widening and signalization of various
off-site ,roads and intersections.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
The following conclusions are based on the findings of the original 1987 Wilbur-Smith
Associates (WSA) traffic impact study, the subsequent Traffic Impact Study for Plaza Del
Sol Commercial Center (now referred to as the "Villages at Pasco Del Sol") update, and the
most recent traffic update letter, which was prepared in February 2001 for Specific Plan
Amendment No. 8:
· Specific Plan Amendment No. 8 would result in a combined net reductmn in resldentml
units, commercial acreage, and school acreage. Residential units would be reduced by
either 109 (Adult Retirement Option) or 174 dwellings (Proposed Land Use Plan),
depending on the development option implemented for Planning Area 8. Within the
community and neighborhood commercial land use categories, the proposed changes
would result in an overall net reduction of seven (7) commercial acres. In addition, the
proposed land use plan changes would result in the elimination of ten (10) acres from
the elementary school category. For the purposes of Wilbur Smith's latest traffic
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 20 of 36 Octob~ 26, 2001
ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235
analysis, one elementary school has been eliminated fi.om the land use plan. A typical
attendance of 700 students per school was used for the remalmng elementary schools.
Specific Plan Amendment No. 8 also proposes minor changes in greenbelt paseos,
roadway paseos and major streets. However, these changes would not result in
significant differences in the vehicle trip generation for the Specific Plan.
Traffic signals have been installed at the Margarita Road/De Portola Road, Highway 79
South/Meadows Parkway, and Highway 79/Butterfield Stage Road intersections and on
Campanula Way at the rear of the Home Depot to ensure that the intersections operate
at an acceptable Level of Service (LOS D or better). Installation of these four traffic
signals has mitigated the potential traffic impacts at these intersections to below a level
of significance.
In summary, the proposed changes in Specific Plan Amendment No. 8 will result in a
total reduction of 7,963 daily vehicle trips from the number of daily vehicle trips
associated with Amendment No. 7 (see Table 4,/.and Use and THp Generation
Comparison, for detail). This reduction is deterrrdned as follows:
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 21 of 36 October 26, 2001
ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235
The trip reduction (as shown in Table 4, Land Use and Trip Generation Comparison)
is determined as follows:
Amendment No. 8 results in a decrease of 174 medium density residential
dwelling units from the number of units proposed in Amendment No.7. This
change results in a reduction of 1,163 daily vehicle trips.
Amendment No. 8 also proposes changes to commercial property densities.
Community commercial uses will be increased by eight acres, resulting in an
addition of 4,400 daily trips. However, neighborhood commercial uses will be
reduced by 15 acres, resulting in a net reduction of 10,500 daily trips. Taken
together, trips associated with all types of commercial uses will be reduced by
6,100.
Dally trips associated with the elementary schools will be reduced by 700, and
changes to greenbelt paseos, roadway pasens and major streets were found to be
negligible.
The proposed land use changes (from Specific Plan No. 219, Amendment No. 7 to
Amendment No. 8) would result in an overall reduction traffic impacts associated with the
Approved Project (/.e., Amendment No. 7). While substantial, this reduction would not be
great enough to eliminate the need for the traffic improvements identified elsewhere in this
section. The developer will continue to be responsible for payment of development impact
fees in accordance with the fee schedule established by the City. However, with the
reduction in traffic volumes associated with Amendment No. 8, the developer's fair share
conuibution of development impact fees shall be concomitantly reduced.
WATER AND SEWER
Previously Identified Impacts
A preliminary water and sewer report6 was prepared for the Paloma del Sol project in 1987.
The site lies within the Rancho Villages Assessment District (providing for major
infrastructure improvements), Rancho California Water District (water service), and Eastern
Municipal Water District (sewer services). The site lies within the 1305, 1380, and 1485
pressure zone systems, with the majority of the site lying within 1380 pressure zone system.
Sewage fwm Paloma del Sol would be treated at the EMWD's Rancho California Regional
Water Reclamation Facility. The EMWD site is (was) proposed to expand its capacity in
time to adequately serve the needs of Paloma del Sol residents.

PALOMA DEL SOL Page 23 of 36 October 26, 2001
_A_n_n SDUM NO. 4 TO 235
Approximately four million gallons of water reservoir storage would be required for the
previously approved Paloma del Sol project. This storage would be provided by existing
reservoirs in the local area. It is unknown whether additional reservoir storage would be
constructed for future use.
In addition, approximately 100 gallons of sewage per person per day (the Eastern Municipal
Waste District's sewage generation factor) would be generated by the project, which is
approximately 1,453,771 million gallons per day for the Paloma del Sol project. The
proposed infrastructure wastewater collection facilities to ultimately serve the project was
based on EMWD's overall system master planning for the Rancho Villages Assessment
District. See V.D.2 for further discussion and exhibits.
In order to mitigate for potential impacts associated with the original Paloma del Sol Specific
plan, the following mitigation measures shall be implemented: 1) Health and Safety Code
Section 17921.3 requires low-flush toilets and urinals an all buildings, 2) Title 20, Catiforma
Administrative Code Section 1606 (b) establishes efficiency standards that set the maximum
flow rate of all new showerbeads, lavatory faucets, etc.; 3) Tire 20 of the CAD Sections
prohibits the sale of fixtures that do not comply with regulations; 4) Tire 24 CAD 2-5307 (b)
prohibits the installation of fixtures unless the manufacturer has certified to the CEC
compliance with flow rate standards; 5) Tire 24 CAD Sections 2-5352 (i) and (j) address
pipe insulation requirements, which can reduce water used before hot water reaches
equipment or fixtures; 6) Health and Safety Code Section 4047 prohibit3 installation of
residential water softening or conditioning appliances unless certain conditions are satisfied;
7) Government Code Section 7800 specifies that lavatories in all public facilities be equipped
with self-closing faucets that limit the flow of hot water.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
The original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan proposed 5,611 dwellihg units and 54 acres of
commercial development. In December 1995, the Eastern Municipal Water District
(EMWD) adopted an Urban Water Management Plan using Paloma del Sol Specific Plan
Amendment No. 1 as the basis for the project. The Urban Water Management Plan assumes
a total of 5,604 dwelling units in Paloma del Sol at project build out, in addition to 51 acres
of commercial uses, 63 acres of public uses, and 129 acres of park. These uses were factored
into the long term non-potable water needs of the EMWD. The current proposal
(Amendment No. 8) would provide a maximum of 5,137 dwelling units, 45.5 acres of
commercial development, 53 acres of public uses (including the schools and the day care
center), and 145.9 acres of park/recreation areas, greenbelt paseos and roadway paseos.
Although demand for non-potable water for use in the park/recreation areas, greenbelt paseos
and roadway paseos within the proposed project would increase somewhat from that
anticipated in the Urban Water Management Plan. Non-potable water usage for all of the
other uses would incrementally decrease when compared with the assumptions made in the
original Paloma del Sol EIR and E.MWD's adopted Urban Water Management Plan.
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 24 of 36 October 26, 2001
ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235
Therefore, the net change in non-potable water usage would be insignificant.
Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan proposes a maximum of 5,137
dwelling units and 45.5 acres of commercial land uses, a reduction of 474 dwell/ag units and
a decrease of 8.5 acres of commercial uses from the original Specific Plan. Consequently,
the decrease in residential development would result in a reduction in water usage of
approximately 284,400 gallons per day for residential uses (assumes 600 gpd/du) and a
reduction of 17,000 gpd for the 8.5 acres of commercial uses. The addition of the 20.0-acre
junior high school (not included in the original Specific Plan) would increase water usage by
another 40,000 gallons per day (assumes 2,000 gpcl/ac). Furthermore, if it is assumed that
the water requirements for the elementary schools and the open space and park/recreation
areas remain essentially unchanged, then the new project would result in a reduction in water
demand of 261,400 gallons per day when compared with the original Specific Plan.
Table 5, below, identifies the estimated usage and impacts after mitigation for both the
Approved Project (i.e., Amendment No. 7) and the Proposed Project (i.e., Amendment No.
8).

The Proposed ~6roject woul~'~esuit in reduced impacts to water and sewer when compared to

in Section V.D of the certified EIR for the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan, potentially
significant impacts would be reduced to below a level of significance.
R. ~ SEaVlC~S
Previously Identified hnpacts
The project site is presently provided with fire protection services by the Riverside County
Fire Department in cooperation under contract with the City of Temecula. The Pauba Fire
Station on Pauba Road services the site.
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 25 of 36 October 26, 2001
ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235
The original EIR found that the existing fire station, which is located within three miles of
the project site, would only provide Category ITl level of protection. However, that station
was determined not to be adequate to serve the project site. Consequently, the original
Paloma del Sol Specific plan would be subject to Development Impact Fees to offset the cost
of providing a new fire station within a five-minute response time to the project site. This
would mitigate the project's impacts to fire-related services to a level below significance.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
The original Paloma del Sol Specific plan proposed 5,611 dwelling units and 54 acres of
commercial land uses. Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan proposes a
maximum of 5,137 dwelling units and 45.5 acres of commercial land uses, a reduction of 474
dwelling units and a decrease of 8.5 acres of commercial uses. The change in land uses
between Amendments No. 7 and 8 is even smaller. When compared to Amendment No. 7,
the number of dwelling units in Amendment No. 8 would decreased by 174 dwelling units
(Proposed Land Use Plan) or 109 dwelling units (Adult Retirement Option), which would
result in 496 or 311 fewer project residents, depending upon which plan gets implemented.
The acreage of proposed commercial development in Amendment No. 8 remains the same as
the commercial acreage associated with Amendment No. 7. The net effect of these land use
changes would not significantly change the response times from the existing fire station to
the project site. Accordingly, the significant impacts associated with the previous assessment
for the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan, would require similar mitigation to reduce the
impacts to a level below significant.
SBERIFF SERVICES
Pre~iously Identified Impacts
Police services are provided to the site by Riverside County Sheriff's Department, which
operates from the Lake Elsinore Sheriff's Station. The County and City recognize the need
for additional sheriff services with the increase in population. The EIR states that the
Sheriff's department attempts to maintain a ratio of one deputy for every 4,000 persons,
while a letter from the Sheriff's Department reflects the need for one deputy per 1,500
people. According to the City of Temecula's General Plan, one deputy per 1,000 people is
the desired ratio.
In order to mitigate the project's impacts associated with police services, the applicant of the
original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan would be required to coordinate with the Riverside
County Sheriff's Department to assure that proper protection facilities and personnel would
be available. To ensure safety to the residents of the original Paloma del Sol project, safety
measures would be incorporated in the design of the project's circulation components (for
pedestrians, vehicles, and police), street lighting, residential door and window visibility from
street and buildings, and fencing.
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 26 of 36 October 26, 2001
ADDSNDUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235'
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
The original Paloma del Sol Specific plan proposed 5,611 dwelling units, which would
equate to a population of 15,$79 persons, assuming a generation factor of 2.83 persons per
unit as indicated in the City of Temecula General Plan. Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del
Sol Specific Plan proposes a maximum orS,137 dwelling units, which represents a reduction
of 474 dwelling units or 1,342 project residents from that proposed in the original Specific
Plan. Assuming a County standard of one deputy per 1,500 persons, then Specific Plan
Amendment No 8 would generate a need for 9.7 deputies. This is a reduction from the 10.6
deputies required under the original Specific Plan (as recalculated using the Sheriff
Department's current milo of one deputy per 1,500 persons). It should be noted that the
original EIR was prepared using a different deputy/population milo. Updating the original
EIR to use the cun'ent Sheriff's Department current deputy/population ratio, would increase
the deputies need to adequately serve the original Specific Plan from $.4 to 10.6 deputies.
Impacts to sheriff services would be reduced by 0.9 deputy.
When compared to Amendment No. 7, the number of dwelling units in Amendment No. $
would decreased by 174 dwelling units (Proposed Land Use Plan) or 109 dwelling units
(Adult Retirement Option), which would result in 496 or 311 fewer project residents,
depending upon which plan gets implemented. The reduction in population associated with
Amendment No. 8 would result in a slight reduction in impacts to sheriff services of 0.4
deputy for the Proposed Land Use Plan and 0.2 deputy for the Adult Retirement Option.
Consequently, impacts to utilities would be reduced, and no further mitigation is required.
SCHOOLS
Previously Identified Impacts
The Paloma del Sol project lies within the Temecula Valley Unified School District
(TVUSD) for grades K-12. The entire project will be served by three existing elementary.
schools:
.4bby Reinke Elementary School (K-5), 43799 Sunny Meadows Drive, Temecula
(Planning Area 11 on-site);
Paloma Elementary School CK-5), 42940 Via Rami, Temecula (located off-site); and
Joan F. Sparkrnan Elementary School (K-5), 32225 Pio Pico Road, Temecula
(Planning Area 7 on-site).
Abby Reinke Elementary School is partially built and is being built in phases, although it is
presently serving students. Estimated completion date for the school is approximately 2002.
Although the Specific Plan designates an additional site for another elementary school within
the project (Planning Area 32 in the Approved Project), the TVUSD has indicated that this
site is no longer needed (see dated February 4, 1999 letter in the Appendix), since most of the
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 27 of 36 October 26, 2001
ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235
Ue
dwelling units within the Paloma Del Sol project have already been built and are not
generating as many students as originally predicted. Planning Area 32 will develop with
Medium density (2-5 da/ac) residential uses instead of an elementary school.
The project includes a middle school in Planning Area 30, adjacent to Meadows Parkway.
This school (Temecuia Middle School) is open and serves students in grades 6-8. Temecula
Middle School is located at 42075 Meadows Parkway. Existing high school students in
Paloma Del Sol attend (and new students will also attend) Temecula Valley High School,
which serves grades 9-12. The high school is located at 31555 Rancho Vista Road adjacent
to Margarita Road.
According to thc certified EIR for the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan, the project
would generate an estimated 3,086 students in Grades K-8 (based upon
TVUSD's generation factor of 0.55 students per dwelling unit). In addition, 1,178 high
school students would be generated from the previously approved project (based upon
Elsinore Union High School District's generation factor of 0.21 students per dwelling unit).
Thc certified EIR determined that the proposed 61 acres of school sites would provide
adequate school services for TVUSD students. Since certification of the EIR, the project is
building out at a lower density than originally envisioned. Therefore, the number of students
generated by the proposed project will be reduced accordingly. The Temecula Valley
Unified School District has already determined that the Junior High School site in Planning
Area 30 is no longer required.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
The original EIR assumed that the original Specific Plan project would generate 3,086 K-8
students and 1,178 high school students. Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific
Plan would result in a reduction of 539 single-family dwelling units (assuming that Planning
Area 8 would built out with 335 single family homes) from that anticipated in the original
Paloma del Sol Specific Plan. Using generation factors of 0.55 students per unit for C-fades
K-8 and 0.21 students per unit for high school, there would be a decrease of 296 K-8 students--
and 113 high school students from those generated by the Original Specific Plan project.
Amendment No. 8 will reduce impacts to schools, and no further mitigation is required.
PARKS AND RECREATION
Previously Identified Impacts
Implementation of the Approved Project (i.e., Paloma Del Sol Specific Plan, Amendment
No. 7) would create a demand for parks and recreation facilities in the project area. To meet
this demand, the Specific Plan includes an extensive Open Space and Recreation Program.
This program will provide 142.5 acres of land for park, recreational open space, parkway and
pasco uses, which is equivalent to 9.53 acres of park and recreation land per 1,000 residents.
The provision of this acreage will adequately mitigate the increased recreational demands
generated by the Approved Project.
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 28 of 36 October 26, 2001
ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
Implementation of Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan would result in a
reduction of 474 dwelling units when compared with the original Paloma del Sol Specific
Plan. The reduction Would cause 1,351 fewer pwject residents (based on the City of
Temecula's generation factor of 2.85 persons per dwelling unit). When compared to
Amendment No. 7, the number of dwelling units in Amendment No. 8 has decreased by 174
dwelling units and 109 dwelling units under the adult retirement option, while the total park
and recreation acreage has increased slightly from 142.5 to 144.0 acres.
Amendment No. 8 includes 30.6 acres of parks/recreation areas, 31.9 acres of greenbelts, and
81.5 acres of roadway paseos for a combined park and recreation total acreage of 144.0 acres.
The approved Development Agreement allows for parks, greenbelts, and roadway paseos to
count toward park and recreation credit. A comparison of park and recreation open space for
both Amendment No. 7 and Amendment No. 8 is contained in Table 6, Park/Recreation
Acreage Comparison Analysis.

ADDENDUM N0.4 TO EIR 235
UTILrrt~S
Special Background Information
Beginning in January 2001, California began to experience a shortage in the supply of
electricity. That situation was a result of three fundamental changes within the organization
of the power industry: (1) a halt in power plant construction during the 1990's, (2)
deregulation in 1996, and (3) an increase in the price of natural gas.
According to the California Department of Water Resources (DWR), the majority of the
energy crisis stems from the lack of new plant construction during the 1990's, which
corresponded directly to the decline in the availability of electrical energy early in 2001.
Because of the decreasing supply and a high demand for energy, the wholesale price of
electricity began to rise. This situation was further exacerbated by deregulation. The
deregulation agreement of 1996 placed a price cap on the dollar mount the California
utilities, like SCE, could charge their customers. Because of the price cap, SCE was forced
to charge consumers less for energy than the price they had to pay. This price discrepancy
eventually forced SCE into debt, and because of waning credit the company was no longer
able to buy enough power to satisfy demand. SCE, however, was able to buy power on a
daily basis with cash reserves, but this was not a reliable means by which to supply all of
their customers on a continual basis.
As a direct result of SCE's financial difficulties, on January 17, 2001, the DWR was given
authority to purchase power on behalf of SCE. The power purchased by DWR was used to
supply those customers who were beyond the dally capacity of SCE. The DWR paid for the
electricity with funds from the State of California General Fund and this money would be
reimbursed to the State by a three cent (3¢) increase per Kilowatt hour (KW) charge. This
charge was added to consumers' bills starting on June 3, 2001. Additionally, on August 21,
2001, the California Senate passed a bill allowed SCE to issue bonds for up to $2.9 billion.
The money generated from the bonds will allow SCE to reimburse the companies'theyowe;
approximately 70 percent of their debt. Most notably, these measures are a first step to
providing SCE with the ability to regain its credit status, thus, enabling SCE to begin
providing all of its customers with electricity.
In addition to the steps taken by SCE and the state, within the last year the California Energy
Commission (CEC) has approved a total of 16 power plant projects. Of these approved
projects three have been completed and are currently producing 1,415 Megawatts (MW) of
electricity per year (one MegaWatt supplies 750 homes). An additional plant, an out-of-
service unit in Huntington Beach, is being upgraded and retrofitted, and completion is
expected in November 2001. This plant will add an additional 450 MW per year to the
energy grid. The remaining 12 plants are either being constructed or are in the procegs of
obtaining financing. These 12 plants are expected to be online between 2001 and 2004 (see
Table 7, California Power Plant Project Status). In addition, the CEC is reviewing
proposals for 20 new power plants, and has announced plans for 31 additional power plants.
PALOMA DEL SOL Page 30 of 36 October 26, 2001
No. 4 TO EIR 235
Combined, these 79 projects, which will be located throughout California, will result in an
additional 30,482 MW produced per year. These projects are expected to be completed
between September 2001 and August 2005. Most notably, eight of these power plants will
be located in Riverside County and seven will be located in San Bemardino County.
It is imponam to note that some aging facilities will require special pollution permits and
expensive maintenance, which may render them too costly to operate. Therefore, some
power plants presently producing energy may be taken off-line. Additionally, approximately
22 executive orders were issued by Governor Gray Davis in the first six months of 2001.
The intent of these executive orders was to promote conservation and to temporarily ease
restrictions found within the California Environmental Quality Guidelines (CEQG) that
pertain to power generation. More specifically, the executive order eased regulations
pertaining to power plant construction, shortened new plant approval time, eased power
generation restrictions, and eased overall plant production and management guidelines. Most
of these executive orders will expire December 31, 2001, which will cause the approval time
for new power plants, existing plant emission standards, and overall plant management
requirements to revert to the standards set forth in the (CEQG).

ADDENDUM NO. 4 TO EIR 235
Previously Identified Impacts
The residential, commercial and office uses in the Approved Project (i.e., Specific Plan
Amendment No. 7) will create a demand for energy estimated at 63,388,761 kWH per year
for electricity and 35,574,929 cubic feet/month (4,115,715 therms per year per dwelling unit
based on new ussage rates) for natural gas. The Southern California Edison Company and
the Southern California Gas Company provide electricity to the project site and have
indicated that they would be able to meet these estimated demands.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
When compared to Amendment No. 7, the number of dwelling units in AmendmentNo. 8
would be decreased by 174 dwelling units (Proposed Land Use Plan) or 109 dwelling units
(Adult Retirement Option), which would result in 496 or 311 fewer project residents,
depending upon which plan gets implemented. The reduction in population associated with
Amendment No. 8 would result in a corresponding reduction in utility demand (see Table 8,
Estimated Natural Gas and Electricity Demand Comparison). Consequently, impacts to
utilities would be reduced, and no further raJtigation is required.

SOLfl) WASTE
Previously Identified Impacts
The project site is located within the E1 Sobrante service area. The Paloma del Sol Specific
Plan will result in an increase in the amount of solid waste generated on the project site when
compared to existing conditions. There will also be a corresponding increase in the service
needs for waste haulers. The population of 14,546 estimated to be generated by Proposed
Project will result in approximately 57.5 tons of waste a day assuming that 7.9 pounds of
waste is generated per person per day. This will incrementally shorten the life span of the El
Sobrante Landfill; however, the landfill has received County approvals for a major multi-year
expansion that would dramatically extend the life expectancy of the landfill. The expansion
project is already under construction. In addition, California law currently requires all
municipalities to recycle or divert 50% of their solid waste stream.q from landfills. This
practice is expected to continue and will also contribute to the life expectancy of the landfill.
Analysis of Change in Project ImPacts
Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan would result in a reduction of 474
dwelling units when compared with the original Paloma del Sol Specific Plan. The reduction
would result in 1,351 fewer project residents (based upon City of Temecula General Plan's
generation factor of 2.85 persons per dwelling unit).
When compared to the Approved Project (i.e., Amendment No. 7), the number of dwelling
units in Amendment No. 8 would be decreased by 174 dwelling units (Proposed Land Use
Plan) or 109 dwelling units (Adult Retirement Option), which would result in 496 or 311
fewer project residents, depending upon which plan gets implemented. The reduction in
population associated with Amendment No. 8 would result in the generation of less amounts
of solid waste, which would reduce the demand for landfill space. Consequently, impacts
associated with solid waste would be reduced, and no further mitigation is required.

· Previously Identified Impacts
The project is currently served by library facilities located near the intersection of Ynez Road
and Rancho California Road in Rancho California. Due to the increase in population that
Paloma del Sol will generate, mitigation fees will be required by the project to increase the
facility size, book collection and library staff.

Previously Identified Impacts
The following medical facilities serve the project area: (1) Inland Valley Regional Medical
Center (80 beds); '(2) Menifee Valley Medical Center (84 beds); and (3) Rancho Springs
Medical Center (99 beds). Other facilities for specialized medical cases are also located
throughout the area. No mitigation measures are required, as it is believed that medical
facilities respond to "market" demand.

AA. DISASTER PREPAREDNESS
Previously Identified Impacts
Earthquakes, floods, and wildfires are natural occurrences that cannot be prevented. The
County Office of Disaster Preparedness is responsible for coordinating the various agencies
to assure preparedness and recovery from a natural disaster. Seismic safety, slopes and
erosion, wind erosion and blowsand, flooding, and fire services impacts and accompanying
mitigation are discussed in separate sections of the EIR.
Analysis of Change in Project Impacts
Amendment No. 8 to the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan would result in a reduction of 474
dwilling units, or 1,351 fewer project residents (based upon the City of Temecula's new
generation factor of 2.85 persohs per dwelling unit), from that envisioned in the original
Paloma del Sol Specific Plan. In comparison to the Approved Project (i.e., Amendment No.
7), the number of dwelling units in Amendment No. 8 would be decreased by 174 dwelling
units (Proposed Land Use Plan) or 109 dwelling units (Adult Retirement Option), which
would result in 496 or 311 fewer project residents, depending upon which plan gets
implemented. Implementation of either the Proposed Land Use Plan or the Adult Retirement
Option would result in a reduction in population that would be exposed to seismic safety
hazards, including ground shaking. As such, n6 further mitigation is necessary.
IH. CONCLUSION
In all cases, impacts associated with implementation of the Proposed Project (i.e., Paloma del Sol
Specific Plan No. 219, Amendment No. 8) would be the same as or less than those analyzed in the
certified FEIR and Addendum No. 3 for the Approved Project (/.e., Paloma del Sol Specific Plan No.
219, Amendment No. 7). The Proposed Project will be required to comply with all mitigation
measures identified in the certified FEIR and the subsequent EIR addendums; inetudingdais EIR .....
addendum (£e., Addendum No. 4). No additional mitigation measures are necessary to reduce
potentially significant impacts to below a level of significance.

M SUMMARY OF CHANGES
SUMMARY OF CHANGES TO PALOMA DEL SOL (NIEADOWS) SPECIFIC PLAN
The PALOMA DEL SOL Specific Plan Amendment No. 4 was filed pursuant to City Council approval of
the "Agreement Regarding Paloma del Sol" on January 11, 1994. Amendment No. 4 added 6.5 acres of
Very High density residential to Planning Area 6 and 1.5 acres of Park to Planning Area 37, reduced the
Community/Neighborhood Commercial area in Planning Area 1 by 4.9 acres, and reduced major roads
acreage by 3.1 acres.
Specific Plan Amendment No. 5 increased the number of Medium density dwelling units from 2,338 to
2,487, reduced the number of Medium-High density dwelling units from 2,356 to 2,251, reduced the
number of Multi-family dwelling units from 910 to 590, added a 4.0-acre park/Recreation area site,
increased the Community/Neighborhood Commercial acreage from 31.5 acres to 32.3 acres, and reduced
the roadway landscape requirements adjacent to commercial uses.
Specific Plan Amendment No. 6 ehcompassed several minor changes to the Specific Plan. The Park in
Planning Area 29A was increased from 4.0 acres to 5.0 acres. Planning Area 28 was reduced in size by
one acre resulting in a reduction of dwelling units from 117 to 113. The dwelling units were transferred
to Planning Area 2 bringing the total number of units in Planning Area 2 up to 120. Roadway cross-
sections and standards ~ere updated to conform with the City's General Plan. Access points
and neighborhood entries on certain planning areas t~.ve-beenwere relocated to conform with approved
Tentative Tract Maps. Streets "G" and "FY' h,~.c b~,;awere renamed as Campanula Way. The phasing
plan has been revised m reflect current expectations, and wording has been added that gives the Director
of Community Development the authority to allow minor variations .from Specific Plan standards
without a Specific Plan amendment. Overall, Specific Plan Amendment No. 6 did not result in any total
acreage or dwelling unit changes.
Tl,c v,,,vc,~cd Specific Plan Amendment No. 7 involve~_ land use changes in Planning Areas 1, 6, and
8, the creation of Planning Areas l(a), "Village Core," and l(b), "Villages," and the realignment and
reconfiguration of Campanula Way between De Portola Road to Meadows Parkway. As part of the
v,,~vc, zcd changes to Planning Area 1, an application h,~i b .... was submitted to the City of Temecula
to process Amendment No. 7 to the Specific Plan in conjunction with a Development Plan and a 10-year
Development Agreement (which contains an additional 15 year covenant allowing rebuilding and uses
in accordance with the Development Agreement for a total of 25 years), both pertaining only to a portion
of what lo cu,,..~ly was designated by ad,,vzcd Amendment No. 6 as Planning Area 1. The Amendment
,iII included a division of Planning Area 1 into a series of subgroups identified as Planning Areas 1, 1 (a)
and 1 (b) for3lanning purposes with the existing ~ super market center and remaining
undeveloped community/neighborhood commercial property north of L,~ky the su er market center
along Margarita Road frontage i,, bc known as Planning Area 1. The Development Plan application
focused on the newly created Planning Areas la and lb. The Development Plan will permine~d the
const~'ction of a 276,243 square foot community commercial center with a cenwalized village core and
a series of supporting focused retail villages on 24-acres with.locations for community gathering places
and pedestrian linkages to join the surrounding uses in support of the village concept.

I SUMMARY OF CHANGES
As pan of Amendment No. 7, Planning Area 6 ,ill bc was reduced from 36.3 acres to 34.3 acres to
account for the increased size of Planning Area 1. In addmon, Planning Area 6 wi,, ,~,. was d~vlded into
two planning areas 6A and 6B. Planning Area 6A ,,ill now includes 22.3 acres aa~-,~o~d~}olx~
as High density (9-12 duJac) residential with a maximum of 268 dwelling units. Planning Area 6B i~
· - ~ ~--' of Very High density (13-20 du/ac) residential with a maximum of 240
gl .......... includes 12 acres
dwelling units. The reduction and division of Planning Area 6 ,,'ill resulted in a decrease of 82 dwelling
units from 590 to 508 units. All affected base maps and land use tables ha,,. ,been were updated to
reflect these proposed changes to Planning Area 6 and a descriptive summary of Planning Areas 6A and
6B h-a'r~oee~ was added to Section 1II. SPEcn~c PLAN.
Specific Plan Amendment No. 7 also proposesd the development of an active senior community within
Planning Area 8. A Tentative Tract Map for the active senior project h,~,c ¢,.c,a was submitted along
with Amendment No. 7. Planning Area 8 will -'"' '-
includes feature design standards that will enable this planning area
to be developed as a private gated active senior community. If developed as an active senior community,
· Planning Area 8 will include a private recreation area for senior community residents and contain
street/sidewalk landscaping and housing architecture targeted for active adult living. As part of
Amendment No. 7. eExamples of the planned unique senior street/sidewalk landscaping and housing
architecture ha,c bccn were incorporated into Section IV. DESIGN GUIDELINES (See Figures 51A-E).
As a result of the changes proposed for Planning Area 1, a ,,.,,li~,,,,,.,; af Campanula Way is
b,~,,.,.r, Dc ?,~,~,:,la R,~,.d ,~,d M. cadawa l',~k-a~. ~ic,,,ad ,ill 'c.,- was altered from a throughway at
a 100-foot right-of-way to a 78-foot right-of-way with two traffic circles (which will require a-122-foot
rights-of-way at their widest points_) and limited on-street parallel parking. The northerly segment ~,ould
intersects with De Portola Road and provides access to Planning Area 6A, Planning Area 38 and
Planning Area 37. The southeasterly segment ,auld intersects_ with Meadows Parkway and
services the commercial center and Planning Area 6B. The roadway segment w,,,Id allows for the
provisign of on-street parking to promote the village center concept. The alteration ~ill resulted in a
total reduction of 0.7-acre in major streets ,~,.,ca. All affected base maps ha-,',: ¢,.ca were changed to
reflect the realigned design with traffic circles including bicycle routing and utility services.
The proposed Specific Plan Amendment No. 8. which is fully described ih this document, reduces the
total number of residential dwelling units within the overall Paloma Del Sol Specific Plan from
currently entitled 5,246 units to a maximum of 5,137 units, with a potential for as few as 5,072 units.
This dwelling unit decrease represents a 2% to 3% reduction in residential units. The High and Very
High categories would remain unchanged by ao!aroval of Amendment No .8. The decrease in overall
net residential density from 5.1 du/ac to 4.9 alu/ac results in the allocation of more land to each single
family detached residential unit. The gross proiect density decreases similarly from 3.8 du/ac to 3.6
du/ac. When compared to the 5,604 dwelling units adopted in the original Specific Plan, the total
decrease in residential units ranges from 8% (at 5.137 du) to 10% (at 5,072 du).

The commemial uses planned for Planning Area 27 at the comer of Pauba and Butterfield Sta~,e Road
have been eliminated. Planning Area 27 has been reconfigured and relocated to an area south of the
Planning Area 28 and 29 and includes 9.0 acres from Meadows Parkway to Butterfield Sta£e Road. This
area will be preserved as natural open space, and contains existing wetland vegetation. This change is
accompanied by the reconfiguration of Planning Areas 24, 28 and 29 and elimination of Plannin~ Area
29B.
Planning Area 24 in Amendment'No. 7 is designated for 2.9 acres of Park/Recreation uses on the border
between Planning Areas 13 and 23. In Amendment No. 8, Planning Area 24 will be reduced by 1.9 acres
and shifted north to be located adiacent to the southern border of Planning Area 27 and adiacent to the
northern right-of-way of Sunny Meadows Drive.
A new Park/Recreation Area (Planning Area 24) has been located adjacent to the Planning Area 27 Open
Space. The former Planning Area 24 (designated in Amendment No. 7 as a park/Recreation Area
situated between Planning Areas 13 and 23) has been merged into the greenbelt system and is no longer
identified as a separate Planning Area, although the area still exists. Overall, the acreage devoted to

Greenbelt Paseos within Paloma del Sol has increased since the former location of the Planning Area
24 Park/Recreation site has been incorporated into the pasco greenbelt system.
Planning Area 28 has expanded from 25.0 acres of Medium density residential uses in Amendment No.
7 to 49.4 acres of Medium density residential uses in Amendment No. 8. The number of dwellings
proposed in Planning 28 correspondingly increased from 113 to 190 units.
Planning Area 29 remains as a Park/Recreation Area, but the location and configuration of the parcel
are somewhat altered. However, the acreage of this Park/Recreation Area remains unchanged at 5.0
acres. In addition, the elementary school proposed for Planning Area 29B in Amendment No. 7 has been
deleted from the land use plan since the Temecula Valley Unified School District has indicated that the
site is no longer needed.
Due to the high demand for office and commercial uses in the village center area near the super market
center and the planned Home Depot. Paloma Del Sol Specific Plan Amendment No. 8 proposes that the
8.0-acre medium high residential uses allocated for Planning Area 38 be converted to
Community/Neighborhood Commercial. Planning area specific development standards have been
established for Planning Area 38. (See Paloma Del Sol Specific Plan Zone Ordinance, Amendment No.
In addition, the residential land use designations for Planning Areas 5 and 23 have been changed from
Medium Hi~,h to Medium.
Specific Plan Amendment No. 8 also proposes several minor residential dwelling unit and acreage
adiustments in Planning Areas 3, 4, 9, 13, 14, and 26 to reflect the approved and constracted
implementing tracts.
An acreage and dwellin~ unit comparison between Specific Plan Amendment No. 7 and Specific Plan

SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 219/AMENDMENT NO. 8 (S.P. NO. $P-4) Page I-6
SUMMARY
A. PROJECT SUMMARY
1. Project Location and Local Land Uses
The PALOMA DEL SOL Specific Plan project site is comprised of 1391.5 acres in the City of Temecula
in southwestern Riverside County (See Figure 1, Regional Map and Figure 2A, Vicinity Map). The
site is bounded by Pauba Road on the north, State Highway 79 South on the south, Butterfield Stage
Road to the east, and Margarita Road to the west. Existing land uses in the project area include
residential, commercial, open space, agricultural and public/quasi-public.
a. Existing On-site Land Uses and Zoning Designations
The project site is characterized by rolling terrain. Several washes, beginning on-site, are evident in
the north-central portion of the site. Those washes meander through the site, draining the site to the
southwest and south. The existing zoning of the site is SP (Specific Plan).
Significant portions of the site had historically been used for dry farming agricultural purposes.
Those areas include the north-central/northwest, and southeast and southwest portions of the site.
The southern portion of the site, adjacent to State Highway 79 South was temporarily developed with
effluent holding/percolation ponds of the Eastern Municipal Water District. The overall site has
been or is currently being mass graded for development.
b. Surrounding Land Uses
As shown on Figures 2A and 2B, the site is surrounded predominantly by existing and proposed
single family land uses, agricultural land uses, the Temecula Valley High School and the Linfield
Christian High School. Land north of the eastern portion of the site is "Vintage Hills" residential
development. Properties northeast of the site are developed with several single family residences on
large lots. Land to the east of all but the extreme southern portion of the site is vacant, however, a
single family subdivision (Crowne Hill) is proposed to be developed on that land. Property east of
the extreme southern portion of the site is being dry farmed. Immediately to the south of Highway
79 South is being developed with commercial uses. Land to the west of the site is being developed
with "estate lot" single family homes (Los Ranchitos). Property northwest of the site is being
developed with the Temecula Sports Park.
2. Project Descri ti.p.~.~
The PALOMA DEL SOL Specific Plan project combines residential, commercial, schools, a
neighborhood park/recreation areas, adaycare center, greenbelt/paseos~ open space and an extensive
circulation network, within a comprehensive plan. The land use designation and residential densities
for the PALOMA DEL SOL Specific Plan have been blended to reflect a mixed use concept responding
to the changing urbamztng character of the Ra~,,.,,, ,~,~, ........ Temecula area. The Specific Plan is

3. Market Objectives
This project is proposed for development based on extensive buyer profile studies that were
conducted for the project. The studies provide data regarding: location features which influence
people in their choice of where to live; housing features considered important; features keeping
people from buying a home; and groupings of features. A number of housing products are being
designed at this time with features desired by home purchasers who would be identified as the target
market for the project. Examples may be viewed in the Design Guidelines Section of this report
(Section IV). It is thought that this research will permit the close targeting of homebuyers likely to
move to P~LOM~ DEL SOL and/l,i~ poFdoii of ?d,c,~& C,,,,,zy the Temecula area. In addition, a
number of house sizes, and neighborhood types (i.e. cluster, courtyard, conventional single family)
will be offered to provide maximum variety and price range.
It is the intent of the PALOMA DEL SOL Specific Plan to be unified in overall theme but varied in
individual character to provide complimentary land uses. Additional specific market objectives are:
To provide affordable, moderately priced single family detached homes. A market forecast
states that it is expected that the supply of expensive single family homes will begin to grow
faster than demand, and that homes in moderate price ranges should be more marketable.
To provide a housing product with larger and fewer rooms with all else being equal. Market
study shows that general product features associated with faster sales rates are a preference for
larger and fewer rooms all else being equal. More bathroom facilities also appear to be
associated with better sales.
To provide land uses that extend and are consistent with ongoing development along Highway
79 South and in the urban core developing in Temecula.

A. DEVELOPMENT PLANS AND STANDARDS
This Specific Land Use Plan is being prepared within the framework of a detailed and
comprehensive multi-disciplinary planning program. Issues such as engineering feasibility, market
acceptance, economic viability, County Comprehensive General Plan goals and objectives,
development phasing and local community goals have been fully examined and considered. To
further ensure the environmental compatibility, aesthetic satisfaction and functional integrity of the
plan, specific planning goals and objectives were identified. These were defined and identified in
pan through a careful analysis by an Opportunities and Constraints Study. With this analysis and the
site goals and objectives in mind, the PALOMA DEL SOL Specific Plan:
Considers topographic, geologic, hydrologic, and environmental opportunities and constraints
to create a design that generally conforms to the character of the land by retaining and
utilizing basic existing landforms as much as possible.
Reflects anticipated marketing needs and public demand by providing a range of housing
types which will be marketable within the developing economic profile of Temecula area as
well as the County of Riverside generally.
Provides residential development and adequate support facilities (commercial use, community
uses, schools, open space and recreation) and circulation in a convenient and efficient manner.
Provides direct and convenient access to individual residential neighborhoods, recreational
areas, and schools via a safe and efficient circulation system composed of a network of
Arterial, Major, Secondary, Collector and Local roadways, each designed for appropriate
traffic and user needs.
Provides for alternative modes of transportation within and adjacent to the site including
pedes~an, bicycles, and eques~an trails, which will foster the conservation of valuable
energy resources as well as lessen air pollution in the immediate area.
Establishes a unique open space/environment utilizing a greenbelt pasco system and expanded
parkway greenbelts to link project parks, recreation areas, and schools.
Establishes design guidelines for the development of the Paloma del Sol Village Center

1. Specific Land Use Plan
a. Project Description
PALOMA DEL SOL is envisioned to be a high quality, mixed-use, master-planned .community.
Through a strong cohesive community design, The PALOMA DEL SOL Specific Plan, when
implementecL will offer a diverse, convenient living environment for future residents. The PALOMA
DEL SOL proiect will be a highly amenitized community offering certain elements not often found
along many standard master-planned communities such as an expansive ]nshly landscaped parkway
system located within all Collector, Secondary, Major, and Arterial roadways, and also along
Highway 79 South. Also, a lengthy and expansive Pasco System will serve to provide land use
definition; to provide recreational opportunities; and in the major function of providing for the use of
alternative modes of transportation (pedeslrian) through the site. Recreation centers (areas) are also
planned which will support and provide facilities for organized forms of recreation.
Th~ PALOMA DEL SOL prnporty will be identified and unified through design elements such as
architecture, signage, landscaping, color, walls, fencing, and enu-y treatments consistent with themes
identified in the marketing studies. Some variability of design will be allowed so that individual
development enclaves will be identifiable and compatible with the overall community, and will be
able to estabiish their own individual design character. For a description of specific design elements
within this Specific Plan please see Section IV, Design Guidelines.

Development Standards and Zoning Regulations.
The proposed land uses within the Specific Plan include:
RESIDENTIAL - Development within the project will generate a density of ~otli: 43.6
units per acre overall, and housing types will be spread over four density categories
varying from Medium to Very High Density. The acreage shown for each planning
area represents gross acreage, which arei_s subject to minor fluctuations when detailed
engineering and roadway alignment studies are completed.
MEDIUM DENSITY (2-5 DU/AC) residential areas include 2,4832.886 dwelling
units on 5g0699.7 acres of land located throughout (predomlnately on the
periphery) the site. Medium Density use is proposed for planning Areas 4,5. 8
(senior option), 9, 10, 14, 17, 18. 23.25, 26, 28, 31 and 33. It is anticipated that
these homes will be located on 5,000 to 7,200 square foot lots and will be
targeted for move-up, first-time buyers and some retirees. Planning Area 8 is
planned as an active seniors conununity, but may be developed as Medium
density family housing if the plans for the senior community are not
implemented.

MEDIUM (SENIOR COMMUNITY) is proposed for Planning Area 8 which
contains 89.0 acres. If the Senior Community is implemented, ~_ total of
400 units will be constructed within the planning area at a density of
dwelling per acre. The Senior Community will target active retired
individuals that wish to live within a private gated community. If the Senior
Community is not implemented, Planning Area 8 will be developed as a
family oriented Medium Density Residential neighborhood and will ~ have
a maximum of 4~,,5335 units and a density of 2-5 dwelling units per acre.
MEDRJM Hi$~t DENSITY (S-8 DU/AC) will be located in Planning Al'eas 2, :3, S
13, IS, 16, 20, 21, and 22; 23 ~,d 30°. A total of 2,2551.678 homes are to be
constructed within this category of land use on a total of 41(,.$303.8 acres,
which is generally targeted to first-time buyers. The minimum lot size is
4,000 square feet. The Medium High density residential land use is "as a
rule" located in the cenu'al po~don of the site. This use also touches the
soutbem boundary of the site adjacent to Highway 79 South.
HIGH DENSITY housing is proposed for Planning Area 6A which contains
22.3 acres. A total of 268 homes will to be constructed at a density of 9-12
dwellings per acre. This planning area may include High density detached
homes or townhomes, targeting first-time home buyers or the rental market.
VERY HIOH DENSITY hou~ing is proposed for Planning Area 6~ which
contains 12 acres. A total of 240 dwellings will be constructed at a density of
13-20 dwellings per acre. This Planning Area may include condominiums
and apartments, which will be targeted for first-time home buyers and
possibly the rental market.
Where Medium, Medium High, High, and Very High density housing types are planned,
private re. creation facilities and common open space will be provided to supplement
community open space uses. Private recreational areas may include facilities such as a pool,
spa, and/or barbecue areas. Exact design and layout of these facilities will be accomplished in
conjunction with detailed future tract layouts.
COMiV~RCIAL - The community will be served by ~l~,.cfive commercial sites
totaling f2.~43.0 acres. The commemial uses proposed will be Neighborhood and
Community/Neighborhood uses primarily for residents and persons employed on-
sit~. The commercial sites are located in Planning Areas 1, l(a), 1Co), 36, and -2-~3.~8.
All sixfiv~e sites will have a community orientation while Planning Areas 1, l(a) and
1Co) also will be easily visible and accessible from'Highway 79 South and will
therefore contain some highway-related commercial uses. For a list of permitted
uses, see Specific Plan Zoning Ordinance.
V;1.1 .AGE CEN'I'/:,R - The o,~,,g,,.c~aouthwcst comer of PALOMA DEL SOL (bounded
by Highway 79 South, Margarita Road, de Ponola Road and Meadows Parkway) is
part of a Village Center as defined by the Temecula General Plan. Although
PALOMA DEL SOL was originally designed and has been partially consu'ucted as a
suburban master planned community, many of the design concepts and performance

standard~ pertaining to the village core can still apply to the Paloma del Sol Village
Center. The PALOMA DEL SOL Village Center encompasses Pla~nlng areas 1, l(a),
l(b), 6A, 6B, 36, 37 and 38 which are planned for commercial, single fsmily
residential, multi-f~mily residential and neighborhood park uses. Specific design
gnidelines and standards that apply to future implementation of the village center are
found in Section IVD, Village Center Design Guidelines. Standards pertaining w
backbone pedestrian and bicycle systems are found in Section IVC, Landscape
Design Guidelines ami Convnunity Elements of this Specific Plan. The SP Zone for
these planning areas contains standards that support the village center design.
concepts.
SENIOR COMMUNITY - Planning Area 8 may become a private gated active
seniors community restricted to residents who meet appropriate age restrictions.
Zoning will allow age restriction upon approval of CC&R covenants which provide
that the project will be marketed as age restricted in conformance with applicable
State or Federal law. Such a community will offer unique slrce.t/sidewalk
landscaping and housing architecture. All park and recreational areas within the
community gates will be private, designated for use only by Senior CommuIxity
residents. Guidelines and standards pertaining to the implementation of the Senior
Community are found in Section IV,, Design Guidelines, of this specific plan.
GREENBELT/PASEOS, ROADWAY/PASEOS, SLOPES - A significant portion
(I I,9.0,113.4 acres) of the project site is being designed as greunbelffpaseos, roadway
paseos and slopes. These paseos serve several functions and act to "tie" the
comm~lnity'S neighborhoods to each other while pwviding alternative modes of ~ravel
(,pedes~an, bicycle, etc.) to major destination points (schools, and commercial
facilities, and recreation facilities) within the community. The paseos generally
follow drainage courses m~d that will in most cases continue to function in a drainage
capacity; however, the majority of off-site and on-site water now carried in the
central east/wast drainage channel will be carried through an underground system of
pipes. Additionally, at broader locations wifltin the paseos, recreational facilities
may be planned. All roadways shown on the Specific Plan Land Use Plan also will
have greenbelt/paseos (,parkways) expanded from the standard right-of-way. The
greenbelt/paseo system is expected to provide a major aesthetic and unifying amenity
for the entire project.
SCHOOLS - A total of 61-51.0 acres will be allocated for school sites. F,,,~ Three
elementary school sites are planned, containing a total of 4-1-31.0 acres. One
elementary school site is located in the southwestern quadrant of the site adjacent to
Margarita Road. An additional school site is located within ,;ach ,~f
,,,,,,,- ,i ....... f 'J,';o'"--"- the northwest quadrant a acent to Pauba Road and
another is located within the center of the southeast ouadrant. A 20-acre Junior High
School 'site is located in the ~,,,:'.~,,~,~,ortheastem portion of the site, adjacent to
Meadows Parkway. Elementary schools are proposed in Planning Areas 7, 11.29,
and 32. The Junior High School is proposed in Planning Area 30.

Specific Plan.
ROADS - Major roadways totaling I$.~.4102.2 acres will be implemented in
conjunction with the proposed project. The City of Temecula's Circulation Plan will
adequately serve future traffic volumes for the region. On-site traffic will be handled
by a hierarchical roadway system consisting of Arterial, Major, Secondary, Collector
and Local roadways, looping Collector roadways will generally carry interior traffic
to higher traffic carrying Major and Arterial roadways (See Figure 4). In addition,
,.,,~o" .... I l,lc~,clc ~aik Class II bic cie lanes will be slriped along most roadways
throughout the site (Figure 6).
b. Land Use Development Standards
Three levels of development standards and guidelines have been established that, when combined,
ensure an orderly, sensitive methodology for implementation and development of the permitted uses
established for the PALOId.a. DEL SOL by the Zoning Standards set forth in Sec. rll. C.
At one level, special, techniques and mitigations have been designed for application, as appropriate,
to each Planning Area. These specific standards are discussed at length in Sec. III.B of this Specific
· Plan and will be employed to insure a high d~,,.l,,l,,~,~,~ quality development, consistent with,
~ and vrovidin~ l~,,,,i,~ l~,,,,~oi,~,~; for, the proper transition between the varying land uses
and product intensity within the P~LOMA Din. SOL vroiect.
A second level encompasses design techniques relative to architectural, landscape and community-
wide development guidelines. These measures are discussed extensively in the Design Guidelines;
'Sec. IV of this Specific Plan.
At a third, broader level, general project-wide provisions have been established. These standards,
which will work in coordination wi{h the Planning Area Standards and D~_sign Guidelines to insure
overall project sensitivity are:
1) This Specific Plan shall be developed with a maximum of $,24~5.072 dwelling units within a
total 1,391.5 acre area in the manner illustrated on the Specific Land Use Plan Cl:Sgnre 3).
Generally, the uses permitted shall include residential, neighborhood and
community/neighborhood commercial, park, recreation, schools, open space, and circulation.
These uses are more appropriately delineated in the Planning Area Concepts (Figures 15A-
15KK).
2) Uses and development standards will be in accordance with the zoning regulations established
by this Specific Plan and detailed in the Planning Area Development Standards, Sec. III.B,
and will be defined by Specific Plan objectives, future de~iled development plans and
potential conditional use permits as appropriate.

Standards relating to signage, landscaping, parking and other related design elements will
conform to the zoning regulations also as set forth in Sec. IH.B and the Design Guidelines in
Section IV. When appropriate and necessary to meet the goals of this Specific Plan, the
standards will exceed the zoning requirements provided herein.
The development of the property shall be in accordance with the mandatory requirements of
all City of Temecula Ordinances or as amended by this Ordinance and State laws. It also shall
conform substantially with this approved Specific Plan No. 219, Amendment No. ~8 (S.P. No.
SP-4), as filed in the Office of the City of Temecula Planning Department, unless otherwise'
amended.
Prior to issuance of a building permit for construction of any use contemplated by this
approval, the applicant shall first obtain clearance from the City of Temecula Planning
Department verifying that all pertinent conditions of Specific Plan approval have been
satisfied for the phase of development in question.
Any potential public open space/recreation sxeas on the site will be developed per appiot,,iate
zoning requirements and operated to maintain public access to recreation facilities.
Design features such as special architectural treatment, perimeter and interior landscap'mg and
buffering of parking lot/loading zone areas will be incorporated into project design to
minimiTe any potential conflict between higher intensity commercial uses and any abutting
residential enclaves (Please se~ ibc Section IV. Design Guidelines, Sec. P~.)
An environmental assessment shall be conducted for each tract, change of zone, development
plan, specific plan amendment or any other discretionary permit required to implement the
specific plan. At a minimum, the environmental assessment shall utilize the evaluation of
impacts addressed in the EIR prepared for this Specific Plan No. 219 Amendment No. ~8
(S.P. No. SP-4).
A change of zone application, which would constitute a Specific Plan Amendment, may be
required, as determined by the Planning Department, with a subsequent development
application if the proposed use varies substantially from the use(s) provided for by the zoning
standards established by this Specific Plan.
Lots created pursuant to this Specific Hah and any subsequent tentative maps shall be in
conformance with the development standards of the zones applied to the property by this
Specific Plan.
If necessary, roadways, infrastructure, open space and any other public facilities will be
coordinated by and paid for through an assessment or community services district or area to
facilitate construction, maintenance and management.
Final development densities for each Planning Area shall be determined through the
appropriate development application up to the maximum density ide.ntified based upon, but
not limited to, the following:

be certified by a landscape architect.
For thc security and safety of future residents the applicant and/or developer shall incorporate
the following design concepts within each individual tract:
a) Circulation for pedestrians, vehicles and police patxols.
b) City-required lighting of slxcets, walkways, bikeways and commercial area.
c) Visibility of doors and windows from the street and between buildings.
d) Fencing heights and materials.
Any common areas identified in the specific plan shall be maintained by a permanent master
-maintenance organization. The organization may be public or private. The maintenance
organization shall be established prior to or concurrent with the recordation of the first land
division or issuance of any building permits for any approved development permit.
It is anticipated that maintenance associatiOns, if formed, will be established as follows: The
master p~oporty owners association shall be charged with the un qualified right to assess ~heir
own individual owners who own individual units for reasonable maintenance and
management costs which shall be established and continuously maintained. The propen'y
owners association shall be responsible for private roads, parking, open space areas, signing,
landscaping, irrigation, common areas and other facilities as necessary.
Specific Plan 219 is located within thirty (30) miles of Mount Palomar Observatory. Light
and glare may adversely impact operations at the Observatory. Outdoor lighting shall be from
low pressure sodium lamps that are oriented and shielded to prevent direct illumination above
the horizontal plane passing through the lumiuam.

twenty percent (20%) without an amendment to the Specific Plan, provided that an equal or
greater number of units was unused in a previously approved or concurrently submitted
application within another Planning Area or combination of Planning Areas, or the owner of
another Planning Area files a written relinquishment of an equal number of dwelling units in
another Planning Area. All transfers are to be approved by the Planning Department.

a. Circulation Plan Description
The project wadway concept depicted in the Circulation Plan (Figure 4) was developed as a result of
a thorough traffic analysis conducted by Wilbur Smith Associates conducted for the original EIR
(See Technical Appendices). The circulation plan has been revised based on a more recent waffic
.study d~ (September ~ 1999);, also prepared by Wilbur Smith Associates;'w address the traffic
impacts associated with the Villages @Paseo del Sol commercial center proposed for PlAnning
Areas l(a) and l(b). The 1999 analysis evaluated not only the proposed Plaza del Sol C-OrnrncrciS~
area development, but also: 1) background traffic grOWth, 2) proposed adjustments to the sizes,
configuration and uses allowed in residential Planning Areas 6 (now 6A and 0'B) and 8 and 3) other
known area development projects that would affect traffic flow and disuibution. The 1999 analysis
also contains a "City Build-Out Assessment" which considers full build-out of the City of Temecula,
City of Murrieta and surrounding unincorporated County of Riverside areas.
Because the study also considers off-site circulation impacts not directly related to the Specific Plan
Area, the discussion that follows aRempts to distinguish clearly between those improvements to be
provided by the applicant and/or any subseq~/ent developers as pan of the development of PALOMA
DEL SOl. and those improvements delineated in the traffic analysis but not included within the scope
of this Specific Plan. Those improvements contemplated to be constructed in conjunction with
development of PALOMA DEL SOL Specific Plan are specifically delineated in the Circulation Plan
Development Standards.
Principal east-west roadway access to the site is provided by Highway 79 South. Highway 79 South
is a paved two-lane road between interstate 15 (I-15), and proposed Butterfield Stage Road which
will be improved to a 4-lane roadway in 1999/2000. Additional east-west access to the site is
provided by De Ponola Road, Rancho Vista Road, Panba Road and Rancho California Road, all
paved two or four-lane roads. The only north-south road currently servicing the project study area is
Margarita Road, a paved two and four-lane Arterial roadway between Highway 79 South and
Rancho California Road. Meadows Parkway, a planned 4-lane roadway which already has been
constructed south from Rancho California and Pauba Roads inw the northern and central areas of
Paloma del Sol, will be completed to Highway 79 South with full width improvements prior w the
opening of the commercial uses in Planning Areas l(a) and 1Co).
On-site circulation is accommodated efficiently by a network of roadways. Each 'roadway's location
and size (Figure 4) are designed to facilitate the efficient movement of traffic throughout the site.
The main objective of the circulation plan is to provide direct and convenient access to individual
residential clusters, schools, recreation areas, and commercial facilities through a safe and efficient
system 6f arterial, major, secondary, collector, and local roadways, and a pedestrian trail sidewalk
system. Roadway cross-sections are shown on Figures 5A-C. In addition, a Class H striped bicycle
· trail system will be provided as depicted on Figure 6.

Primary north-south on-site traffic will be handled by a Major roadway, Meadows Parkway, which
will have a 100-foot right-of-way between Pauba Road on the north and Highway 79 South on the
south.
,,~ ~.100~foot ~ide
From Campanula Way to Highway 79 South, Meadows Parkway will consist of a ' '~' ' '
divided ~,four-lane road. De Ponola Road will be a Major roadway with a 100-foot fight-of-way.
That road will provide a route for off-site traffic to move through the site, consistent with the City's
Master Plan of Highways. A significant portion of on-site traf-fic will be handled by a collector lo°P
road system consisting of two lanes of travel in a 66-foot right-of-way. One loop road (Roadway"B",
Figure 4) forms a full circle which will provide access to all Planning Areas to the west of Meadows
Parkway and north of De Portola Road, with the exception that the Daycare Center (Pla, nih§ Area
34) will receive access from Pauba Road. All Planning Areas to the east of Meadows Parkway and
north Of De Ponola Road will take access from Loop Road D, with the exception that the
Neighborhood Commercial facility will receive access from Pauba Road. Planning Areas between
De Ponola Road and Highway 79 South will receive access from Margarita Road, Highway 79
South, De Ponola Road or Campanula Way as designated on Figure 4, Circulation Plan. Turning
lanes will be provided at various locations throughout the project as specified in the Traffic Impact
Analysis (See Technical Appendices).
As noted, in addition to the vehicular circulation system, bicycle use will be encouraged by the
provision of a bicycle trail system as depicted by Figure 6. Class II bicycle trails will be located on
Collector, Secondary, and Gateway roadways as depicted on Figure 6. Pauba Road at the northern
boundary of the site will also contain a bicycle trail. A Class I bicycle trail will be provided adjacent
to Meadows Parkway and De Portola Road. This system will connect neighborhoods and points of
destination throughout the site.
b. Circulation Plan Development standards
I)
The proposed Circulation Plan provides an efficient traffic design that meets or exceeds the
public safety, security and transportation needs of the project. The on-site system depicted on
the Circulation Plan (Figure 4) has been derived from the Master Circulation Plan outlined in
the project Traffic Study and will serve as the composite circulation plan for the Specific Plan.
(See Technical Appendices.) The illustrated, on-site roadway improvements will be phased in
accordance with this plan.
2)
Heavy through traffic should be eliminated from residential neighborhoods and
commercial/high density interface areas. Major roadways should be implemented as non-
access roadways, with residential neighborhoods served by smaller residential collectors.
3)
The subdivision shall comply with the street improvement recommendations/mitigations
measures outlined in the project traffic study (Please see Sec. V.D.1.)

3. Drainage Plan
a. Drainage Plan Description
The majority of the project site is located within the Temecula Creek watershed, close to the
confluence of Temecula Creek and Murrieta Creek. The site generally drains in an east to west
direction, and is an eventually u'ibutaPy to Temecula Creek through a number of existing culvert
crossings of Highway 79 South: Total off-site tributary area is composed of approximately 192 acres
from Butterfield Stage Ranch to the east of the site.
Cb;l,~u~Ij -,~']~ Development of the site will alter the natural on-site drainage course~ Mil ~, ~.,~d
. After development, new drainage courses will consist of streets, channels and
swales, underground storm drains and/or a combination of the above. A significant amount of off-
site as well as on-site flows will be piped under the greenbeltipaseo system (Figure 7). The majority
of water will exit the site to the west and south in pipes varying in size up to 120 inches in diameter.
The actual size and location of the drainage system will be determined at the tract map stage of
development.
A small portion of the northern part of the si~e may be within the Murdeta Creek Area Drainage Plan
under the jurisdiction of the Riverside County Flood Control District.
b. Drainage Plan Development Standards
1)
Drainage and flood control facilities and improvements shall be provided in accordance with
the City of Temecula and Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District
requirements.
2)
3)
It is anticipated that drainage/flood control facilities will be maintained by the Riverside
County Flood Control and Water Conservation Disu-ict.

6. Gradine Plan
a. Grading Plan Description
Grading for PALOMA DEL SOL site is tailored to the existing topography of the site. It is intended that
the proposed plan be sensitive to and reflect original natural land forms, where possible, so that
different land uses and residential enclaves are distinguished and separated by topographic features
(See Figure 11, Grading Concept.).
Portions of the site that are fiat or gently sloping will require mivAmal cut and fill operations.
Earthwork quantities will be balanced in logical areas on-site. The Grading Plan also establishes a
basi~ for appropriate tream~ent of drainage reqtthement~ and accommodates a street system that
meets City of Temecula standards for acceptable grades.
2)
Grading Plan Development Standards
All grading activities shall be in substantial conformance with the overall Conceptual Grading
Plan (Figure 11), and shall implement any grading-related mitigation measures outlined in:
Seismic Safety (Sec. V.C. 1.) Slopes and Erosion (Sec. V.C.2.) Preliminary Geotechnical
Investigations (Sec. VI.E.&F.).
Prior to any development within any area of the Specific Plan, an overall Conceptual Grading
Plan for the portion in process shall be submitted for Planning Department approval. The
Grading Plan for each such area shall be used as a guideline for subsequent detailed grading
plans for individual stages of development within that area.
3)
4)
All streets shall have a gradient not exceeding City standards.
Prior to initial grading activities, a soils report; and geotechnical study shall be performed that
further analyze on-site soil conditions and include appropriate measures to control ewsion and
dust (See Preliminary Geotechnical Investigations).

7. Open Space and Recreation Plan
a. Open Space and Recreation Description
A major unifying element of the PALOMA DI~I. SOt. commBnity is the Open Space and Rocre~on
Program. The Program is extensive and provides a vast array of recreational opportunities in which
all members of the Commoa'lity can participate. Further, the program incorporates many diverse
elements in a coordinated, cohesive plan that interrelates with and links the various neighborhoods of
the community with each other and to certain destination points, such as schools and shopping
facilities. Opportunities vary from passive (i.e. undeveloped open space),, to active (i.e.
neighborhood park), to potentially structured (i.e. recreational program.~). Varying types and degrees
of activities will be available which will provide residents the opportunity to take quiet "walks in the
park;" use an on-site equestrian trail; participate in community meetings and social gatherings;
participate in active outdoor informal recreational activities; and participate in potentially swactured
professionally organized and instructed courses and sporting events which could occur at one of the
five park/recreation centers. In fact, the proposed program is significant in that 254.9153.0 acres of
land will be devoted to park, recreational, open space, parkway and pasco uses which is equivalent to
approximately 16.~ 10.5 acres per 1,000 residents.
The various recreational facilities are linked to each other and the other elements of the community
with an extensive parkway and pasco trail system. The "heart" of the system is the "Backbone
Community Pasco System." That system is augmented by neighborhood open space corridors and a
parkway system adjacent to all collector and higher volume roadways. The parkway and pasco
system will be landscaped as shown in the Design Guidelines (Seefian IV) and will at a minimum

Private Active Participation Opportunities. In Medium-High density single family detached
neighborhoods and in neighborhoods containing ana~hed housing types, private recreation facilities
will be provided at a rate of one acre per 500 persons. It is expected that there will be a number of
these recreational facilities throughout the site in the Medium-High, High and Very High density
areas. The pasco and roadway systems have segmented the property into numerous residential
enclaves (neighborhoods). It is envisioned that the majority of those enclaves will have private
recreational facilities. Private recreational areas may include facilities such as pools, spas, cabanas,
meeting rooms, barbecues, wetbars, and kitchen facilities. In the Medium density areas these private
recreational facilities will be located within secondary pasco parkways which weave through the
neighborhoods.
Planning Area 8 (Medium density), if implemented as a Senior Community, creates a commllnity
geared toward "Active Seniors." Private recreation facilities for its commtlnity residents are planned
to provide the following amenities:
a) Competition sized pool
b) Gathering center (no less than 5,000 square feet)
c) 2 tennis cour~
d) May also contain: putting green,' shuffle board, paddle tennis, badminton, volleyball
The extent of recreational facilities and private common open space provided will be designed and
programmed based on detailed site planning for the Senior Comm~h'tity, Timing of conslruction will
be based on development Plan approval. Tract maps in Planning Area 8 (if seniors) shall contain
conditions which state the recreation building and main recreation common area grounds must be
completed on or before 50% of the units have been sold and transferred to home buyers.
It should be emphasized that PALOMA DEL SOL is being planned as a single integrated commRRity and
that the community-wide recreational facilities (paseos/trails, community recreation centers,
neighborhood parks, and the equestrian trail) will be available to all residents of PALOMA DEL SOL.
Future individual tract approvals must therefore receive credit for the overall project-wide open space
and recreation systems in assessing open space and recreation requirements for each future individual

neighborhoods and will be calculated at a rate of one acre per 250 persons. One exception is
that provisions for internal greenbelt/paseos are not required when average lot sizes meet or
exceed a 7,200 square foot minimum, ff Planning Area 8 is developed as an active senior
community these open space corridors may be private but shall be connected to the public
pasco system. Such connections may be controlled using pedestrian enuy gates. If Planning
Area 8 is not developed as a private access-controlled residential neighborhood, these open
space corridors shall be public. Greenbelt/paseos will provide several functions. First, they
will give additional separation between numerous dwellings in the Medium and Medium-
High density residential neighborhoods (essentially, higher density single family
neighborhoods). Second, they will provide an area for a limited amount of passive
recreational opporttmities to occur. Third, in many instances, they will provide a link to the
community pasco system (discussed below)~ Fourth, in the Medium-High density residential
areas, they will provide an area in which neighborhood active participation recreational
facilities can be located. Facilities, other than those just noted, will not be provided within
these con~dors with the pOssible exception of a trail in some locations. However, pasco
areas will be landscaped with turf, trees, etc. so that they will be aesthetically pleasing. The
corridors will be owned and maintained by a neighborhood homeowners association.
b) Community "Backbone" Greenbelt/Paseo System. The community pasco system containing
a total of ~831:~9 acres of land, will provide pedestrian and bicycle access links throughout
the PALOMA DEL SOL community. The system will vary in width and will meander
throughout the commlmity. (See I:igure 11.) Being fully landscaped, the system not only will
function as a trail system, but it also will be aesthetically pleasing and will provide dwelling
unit and land use separations. The system will .contain a pedestrian path that is 8 feet in
width, and community activity nodes will provide hnkages not only to each neighborhood
within thc Commtlnity, but also to major destination points including schools, park,
coram~nlity recreation centers, shopping facilities, and the Rancho California Sports Park just
northwest of the site. Since all resident.~ of PALOMA DEL SOL will be allowed to use this
system, it will be maintained by the Master Homeowners' Association or the Temecula
Commtmity Services District (TCSD).
c) Parkway Open Space Adjacent to Roadways. An expanded parkway system will be located
adjacent to all collector and higher volume roadways. The parkway system will be
landscaped with tuff, lxees, and various additional plant materials. Community "theme"
walls will be located adjacent to the parkways. Parkways will vary in width with a .buffer
located adjacent to Highway 79 South. Some of the parkways will meander, thus creating
changing and interesting viewpoints to those using them. Sidewalks will be provided on
each side of the parkways fla-oughout the development. Also to be included are bicycle lanes
on selected roadways.

B. PLANNING AREA DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS AND ZONING REGULATIONS
Development standards and zoning regulations for PALOMA DEL SOL have been established at three
levels: General Development Provisions, whichwere addressed in Section. III.A. 1; Design Guidelines,
which are provided in Section. IV; and Planning Standards to which this section is devoted.
Planning Areas were selected on the basis of logical, separate units of development. Criteria [onsidered
in this process included uniformity ofnse as it pertains to zoning and relationship to adjoining product
and surrounding topography.
The Planning Area 'graphics for this section (Figures 15A-ttJJ) were derived from the Conceptual
· Landscape Plan (Figure 13A)~ The site plans depicted herein are only conceptual in nature. Although
development may conform closely to some elements of the illuslrative plans provided in Section IV, it
is a~ficipated that actual lotting will not be determined until the u'act map stage.
A Specific Plan Zoning Ordinance was prepared and submitted separately from this Specific Plan
document. The zoning provisions within that Ordinance establish use restrictions for each Planning
Area. The zoning provisions should be used in conjunction with the planning standards for each
respective Planning Area.
Immediately following this page are three examples of single family residential lotting configurations
which may be developed at various locations within the Specific Plan site (See Figures 14A, 14B, and
14C). The "Typical Traditional" configuration as well as the "Typical Courtyard" configuration may
be developed at various locations in the Medium density category. The "Typical Cluster" configuration
may be developed in the Medium High density category. These figures are provided to give the reader
an example of how some neighborhoods within the specified land use categories may be developed.
They are not intended to be representative of all residential development of the same density. In
addition, three e~amnles of single family residential lottin~ confi£urations which may be develooed
within the senior communiB' on Planning Area 8 are shown on Figures 14D. 14E. and 14F.
