Commissioner Olhasso advised that she would be abstaining from this
issue, and therefore left the dais.
Discussion ensued reaardinq the noticina of this proiect
Assistant City Attorney Curley advised that just prior to the start of this hearing, staff
received a letter dated November 28, 2001 (the date of this hearing) written by Mr.
Darren W. Stroud, an attorney representing the Corona family; relayed that the primary
concern expressed in the letter was regarding the improper noticing of this project;
confirmed that noticing was a key element of the hearing process; relayed that the letter
asserted that the Corona family was not noticed, and that the site was not properly
posted; and requested staff to address this issue.
Providing clarification, Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that the site was posted,
and that staff was gathering the data regarding this matter, noting that approximately
4,000 notices were mailed and that staff was additionally in the process of investigating
the 4,000 names for the Coronas mailing address, reiterating that this letter was
received just prior to the hearing.
Presenting additional information, Assistant City Attorney Curley defined the concept of
actual notice, relaying that the party raising this concern was present at the Planning
Commission's last meeting where it was stated that this matter would be noticed for
tonight's meeting; advised that the party is present at this hearing; and since the mailing
lists are prepared by the applicant, queried whether the applicant could address the
thoroughness of this list, as prepared.
Mr. Barry Burnell, representing the applicant, relayed that the applicant works with the
title company to prepare the mailing labels, clarifying that the request was that the
notices be distributed to all individuals within the City's required distance around the
Specific Plan boundary and within the Specific Plan; clarified that when the labels come
back from the title company, the maps are double-checked to ensure that the labels
were made for all of those parcels; and concluded that to the best of his knowledge the
proper mailing notices were prepared and distributed.
Assistant City Attorney Curley additionally noted that the Planning Commission's action
would be a recommendation to the City Council and not a final adjudicative action,
relaying that if ultimately it is determined that in spite of the efforts to comply, the project
had not been noticed properly, there would be further opportunities to address the
matter; and noted that it was within the purview of the Planning Commission to
determine whether to proceed at this point, relaying that it would appear to be safe to
move forward.
For Chairman Chiniaeff, Assistant City Attorney Curley advised that notice needed to be
provided, clarifying that the notices would be required to be dispatched, but not
necessarily received; and relayed that that mailing would need to be conducted within
the distance parameters that the City's Code requires.
In response to Commissioner Telesio, staff confirmed that his property was not within
the parameters of creating a conflict of interest (per the Brown Act).
For Commissioner Mathewson, Assistant City Attorney Curley provided additional
information regarding the process if it was determined that the project was not properly
noticed.
Due to staffs investigation, Director of Planning Ubnoske announced that a label had
been located for Mr. Stephen Corona and read into the record the address denoted,
confirming that this mailing was sent.
Mr. Sam Alhadoff, attorney representing the applicant, noted that at the last hearing
(November 7, 2001), Mr. Darren W. Stroud, attorney representing the Corona family
submitted a 67-page document; advised that both the attorney and the Coronas were
present at that hearing, as well as at tonight's hearing; suggested that actual notice has
taken place; and clarified that it would be the applicant's desire to move forward.
It was the consensus of the Planning Commission to move forward with this item.
The staff report was presented
Via overheads, Associate Planner Harris provided an overview of the project plan (of
record); relayed the proposed amendments in the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan, the
General Plan Land Use Map, and the Tentative Tract Map; specified the location of the
drainage channel, noting the identified wetlands within this boundary and the applicant's
efforts to preserve this area; relayed the School District's decision to relocate the
elementary school site outside of this Specific Plan's boundaries; noted alternate revised
features, as follows: the nine-acre Open Space corridor established along the wetland
area, the relocation of the five-acre park, and the one-acre private park proposed south
of the corridor; relayed the applicant's proposal to change the Medium High Residential
in Planning Area (PA) No. 38 to Community Commercial (in the area to the rear of the
Home Depot use); provided additional information regarding the proposed Tract
Amendment, noting that the tract would encompass PA Nos. 24,26, 27, 28, and 29,
relaying the plan to reduce the single-family residential lots from 321 units to 293; with
respect to pedestrian links, identified staff's recommended connections, as follows, 1 ) a
link between G and K Streets, 2) a link at the terminus of D Street to Butter'field Stage
Road, and 3) a link at the terminus of O Street to Butterfield Stage Road; specifying that
while the applicant was in agreement with respect to the interior G and K Streets
connections, that it was the applicant's opinion that the D and O Streets connections
were inappropriate; and requested the Planning Commission to provide direction
regarding this matter.
Continuing his presentation, Associate Planner Harris noted that the applicant had
requested that various Public Works' and Planning's Conditions of Approval be amended
and/or deleted, advising that after review the applicant's requests, the Public Works'
conditions have incorporated all of the requested revisions, and all but two of the
applicant's requests were incorporated into the Planning Conditions; specified that the
two revisions (in the conditions) that staff disagreed with were, as follows: 1 ) the request
to delete Condition No. 26 which requires that a conceptual landscape plan be provided
Prior to Recordation of the Final Map, noting that the applicant has advised that the
Specific Plan includes a conceptual landscape plan that would provide adequate detail
for the review of landscaping, relaying that staff's position was that this condition has
been a standard condition in all of the previous tract maps in the Paloma del Sol area,
advising that staff was of the opinion that the specific design issues need to be
addressed, and 2) the request to delete Condition No. 29, which requires that only one-
stow buildings be constructed on parcels within PA Nos. 26, and 28, fronting Butterfield
Stage Road with a Landscape Development Zone (LDZ) with a width of less than 32
feet, advising that this condition would address aesthetic issues, noting that it was the
applicant's position that since none of the affected parcels will have an LDZ of less than
32 feet that this condition was not necessary, while staff was of the opinion that there
was a potential for various parcels along this frontage to have an LDZ of less than 32
feet.
Associate Planner Harris provided additional information regarding the applicant's
proposal to change the Medium High Residential to Community Neighborhood
Commercial, relaying the applicant's conceptual plan for this particular area (PA No. 38),
reiterating the request for the Planning Commission to provide direction regarding the
connection points in this area; specified the applicant's proposal to revise the
Development Standards for PA No. 38 to allow for Commercial Office and Neighborhood
Zoning; advised that it was staff's opinion that modifying PA No. 38 for commercial
zoning would enhance the overall Village Commercial core; noted that for consistency,
the General Plan Land Use map was additionally proposed to be amended; and advised
that the applicant has prepared, and staff has reviewed a Final EJR (Addendum No. 4 to
the Paloma del Sol Specific Plan final EIR), noting that the environmental impacts
resulting from the proposed amendments would either stay the same, or decrease.
Referencing the correspondence staff received on November 7, 2001, written by Mr.
Stroud, attorney representing the Corona family, Associate Planner Harris relayed that
the primary contentions are that the applicant failed to construct flood facilities which
were required as previous Conditions of Approval and mitigation measures in
accordance with the original Specific Plan approval, noting their concern regarding flood
hazards on their property resulting from not meeting the conditions; noted that the
Coronas were requesting that the City require the construction of the required flood
control facilities prior to the Issuance of any additional Building Permits, or that the
applicant be required to prepare a subsequent Environmental Impact Report to evaluate
the hydrology of this area; and advised that the Public Works Department has reviewed
these comments, relaying that it was staff's opinion that both the timing and the
construction of the flood control facilities has already been addressed, and are controlled
by different factors, beyond what could be addressed as part of this proposal.
Noting Mr. Alhadoff's (the applicant's attorney) letter, written in response to the letter
written by the Corona's attorney, Associate Planner Harris relayed that this
correspondence was provided in the agenda packets.
Advising that both typographical and numerical errors were found within both the
Specific Plan text and the EIR Addendum text, Associate Planner Harris noted staff's
recommendation that these errors be rectified prior to City Council presentation,
specifying staff's recommended changes.
In response to Commissioner Mathewson, Mr. Burnell relayed that the density was being
reduced by 174 units (from the time of Amendment No. 7 to Amendment No. 8),
providing additional information regarding available options with the original submittal;
and relayed that since the original inception of the project, over time there have been
additional decreases in density culminating into a total 8-10% decrease in the Specific
Plan.
For Chairman Chiniaeff, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks confirmed that staff has
reviewed the retention basin, the drainage, and the installation of flood control
improvements associated with A.D. 159; clarified that although improvements have not
been installed at this time, the developer has been working within A.D. 159 and the
Coronas in an attempt to address the issue, relaying that the amendments presented
with this agenda item will not affect this issue.
The applicant provides the proiect presentation
Mr. Burnell thanked staff, and in particular, Associate Planner Harris, noting that while
being new to the project his presentation was comprehensive; clarified that he would not
reiterate this data, but was available for questions; for Commissioner Mathewson,
specified that in February of 1999, the applicant received a letter from the School District
which provided notification that the School District did not need the noted site for an
additional elementary school; relayed that the drop in 8-10% dwelling units over time
could have contributed to the lack of a need for this school site; with respect to
Condition No. 66, which required pedestrian connections to Butterfield Stage Road,
noted that there are existing connections to Butterfield Stage Road, and that after
additional review the concern was due to the cul-de-sac opening directly onto Butterfield
Stage Road, and the fear that children in this area would not be safe in the connections
at D, and O Streets, if this connection was implemented; with respect to the request of
the applicant regarding Condition No. 26, relayed that this condition requires detailed
elements such as landscape plans for front yards, clarifying that the merchant builders,
and not the developer, would provide the plans for front landscaping and that these
plans should be required prior to the Issuance of a Building Permit (per typical City
procedures), noting that it was the applicant's recommendation that this requirement not
be required Prior to Recordation of the Tract; and with respect to Condition No. 29,
which required an LDZ of 32 feet along Butterfield Stage Road or a single-story home,
noted that it was the applicant's desire that the language be clarified to reflect that if a
32-foot buffer was provided there would be no requirement for single-story homes.
The public is invited to comment
Ms. Michele Staples, attorney representing the James and Mary Corona family, opined
that the City had no legal authority to approve this particular application due to the
applicant not being in compliance with mitigation measures, Conditions of Approval, and
the Specific Plan; opined that the City was in control of the timing of the construction of
the interceptor channel facilities; specified the location of the Corona Ranch, and the
significant negative impacts this project would have on the ranch with respect to
potential flooding; provided additional information regarding A.D. 159 which has
determined that there are insufficient funds to construct the needed facilities; and
requested that no further approvals be issued regarding this project without either the
facilities being constructed, or a new Environmental Impact Report being conducted.
Mr. Darren W. Stroud, attorney for the Corona family, contested the project was not
noticed correctly, and that the address previously read into the record was not Mr.
Stephen Corona's address, clarifying the Mr. Corona had not been noticed regarding this
application; referenced the City ordinance addressing the noticing issues (inclusive of
the required noticing parameters); advised that any action taken by the Planning
Commission at this time would be beyond the authority of the Commission due to the
improper noticing; clarified that the only information the Coronas received regarding this
hearing, and the hearing on November 7, 2001, was from a friend; and reiterated that
this applicant had not met the Conditions of Approval, or the mitigation measures which
were part of the original Specific Plan, requesting the Planning Commission to deny this
application.
For Commissioner Guerriero, Senior Planner Hogan relayed that the Code required the
noticing information to be taken from the most recent assessor's records which is where
this address was obtained; and confirmed that he compared the Assessor's Parcel
Numbers on the Mr. Stephen Corona's mailing label, confirming that the address was
associated with the Coronas' commercial property.
In response to Commissioner Guerriero, Mr. Stroud confirmed that Mr. Corona did live at
the referenced address at one time.
Mr. Steve Corona, son of the Corona property owner of discussion, 33320 Highway 79,
relayed that over the past two years the Coronas have collected a plethora of records
which designate Newland Communities as the responsible party for the eventual
construction and payment of the Butterfield East Interceptor Channel; referenced Mr.
Alhadoff's letter of November 21, 2001 (per agenda material) which quoted the staff
report which stated that while the staff agrees that the issue needs to be resolved, we do
not feel that there is a nexus between the Butterfield Stage Interceptor Channel and the
four cases ...; opined that there was a nexus, noting that it was from Newland
Communities that the funding for the facility would be derived; provided a history of A.D.
159; noted the condition previously imposed which stated that if A.D. 159 was unable to
build the much-needed channel facility, then the developer would take on this
responsibility; and clarified that lack of adequate facilities.
For Commissioner Guerriero, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks clarified that
nothing in this particular amendment was affected by this drainage course, advising that
the parties needed to come to an agreement to build an affordable interceptor channel,
clarifying that the issue at this time was the cost of the facility.
Dr. Robert Wheeler, representing the Elsinore-Murrieta Resource Conservation District,
29090 Camino Albon, Murrieta, noted the merit of the Coronas' concern regarding the
negative flooding and drainage impacts; and recommended that until this matter is
addressed that the Planning Commission deny approval of any additional applications
for this project.
Ms. Mary Jane Olhasso, 32644 Favara Drive, requested that staff and the Ptanning
Commission be diligent when reviewing conditions regarding the landscaping installed
by Newland Communities; and noted that the landscaped areas (in other surrounding
tracts) where the houses are adjacent to internal thoroughfares, which are typically the
homeowner's responsibility, create a negative visual appearance due to the lack of
various homeowners to maintain this property.
Mr. Edward Lindsey, 42375 Camino Merano, commended the developer regarding the
plan to construct homes in PA No. 28; and applauded the Planning Commission for their
diligent work in thoroughly reviewing development in the City, which has had successful
results.
For Mr. Lindsey, Mr. Bumell confirmed that the previously proposed inlets off of Camino
Merano would be closed off with this proposal.
The applicant provides rebuttal
Mr. Sam Alhadoff, attorney representing the applicant, offered the following rebuttal:
Relayed that the Coronas' counsel has raised the same requests raised in the
OctobedNovember, 1999 series of comments regarding the channel and flood
control issues.
Requested that the staff report from the Planning Application related to Specific
Plan Amendment No. 7 be incorporated into the record, as well as letters submitted
by the applicant's representatives (and other parties), listed as follows: the October
26, 1999 letter, the October 29, 1999 letter (submitted by Keith Companies), the
November 1, 1999 letter (submitted by the A.D. engineers), and the November 3,
1999 letter.
Noted that while the Coronas own approximately 161 acres, only 19.17 acres are
within A.D. 159.
?
Referenced a letter dated February 17, 2000 (from the County of Riverside) written
to Mr. Corona, which stated that the Butterfield Interceptor was included as an A.D~
159 facility to be located at the eastern district's boundary, additionally stating that if
Mr. Corona was willing to place the required financial burden on the remainder of
his property outside of the district's boundaries, that the Transportation Department
was willing to recommend a certain alternative; and clarified that the Coronas'
counsel has acknowledged that A.D. 159 is responsible for these improvements in
a letter dated August 13, 2001.
Noted that Newland Communities has paid all of its assessments, relaying that
there exists $2.2 million of authorized bonds via A.D. 159 for the design and
construction of the Butterfield Interceptor Channel, advising that the applicant
supports the use of authorized but un-issued bond capacity on the Newland
Communities property.
Concluded that there was no nexus with the Coronas' concern, relaying that this
particular proposal being presented will have no impact on the Corona property.
For Commissioner Mathewson, Mr. Alhadoff relayed that if it was the Coronas' intent to
solely protect their 19.17 acres within A.D. 159, there was a solution which consisted of
an open channel; advised that the Coronas were in opposition to this plan due to the
interference with their farming operation; and noted that the applicant has been meeting
with the Coronas and their representatives for over two years, providing additional
information regarding the Coronas' desire to protect all their property (including the
property outside of A.D. 159).
In response to Commissioner Mathewson, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks
confirmed that staff concurred with Mr. Alhadof'fls comments.
With respect to the issue of a nexus, Commissioner Telesio noted that it was his
understanding that the Coronas' contention was that each approval was for another
portion of the project, which subsequently reduces the ability to bond for the
improvements.
In response, Mr. Alhadoff noted that the ability to bond ran with the land; relayed that the
applicant had 20 acres in a detention basin and 188 lots that were not useable, clarifying
that the applicant, along with the Coronas, desired a solution; reiterated that there was
no nexus regarding the Coronas' concern and this particular application; and reiterated
that the Coronas were attempting to seek protection of all their property, inclusive of that
which was not part of A.D. 159, while additionally being unwilling to place this property in
the district, or to levy any assessments of this property.
The Plannin(~ Commission deliberates
Noting that the raised concerns were of a legal nature, Commissioner Telesio requested
clarification.
With respect to the issue of notification, Assistant City Attorney Curley noted the
required use of the latest available County Assessor's role, relaying that if this data was
not accurate, the Code was still satisfied, and the City was acting within its requirements
if this data was utilized; and reiterated staff's ability to link the Coronas' mailing address
with the Assessor's Parcel Numbers, advising that it appeared that notice was
conducted properly.
Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that there were six signs posted for the site,
specifying the locations, advising that she had photographs of the referenced signage,
which was presented to the Planning Commission. In response, Chairman Chiniaeff
advised that the property appeared to have been property noticed.
With respect to the nexus issue, Assistant City Attorney Curley relayed that typically
when considering imposition of a condition on a project there needed to be a relationship
with the project (i.e., the project's impacts needed mitigation); noted that engineering
staff from both the County, the City, and the applicant have reviewed these issues at
length, relaying that the last time this issue was brought forward, it was determined that
there was an insufficient linkage to impose a condition, requiring this applicant to take
action to resolve [*later in the discussions it was noted that the City Council did place an
added condition regarding PA No. 6(see below, two paragraphs down)], advising that
circumstances have remained static from that 1999 date until today, clarifying that this
particular application involved property further removed from the area of concern,
advising that staff has advised that this proposal will not have any significant impact to
the drainage issues; noted that while there might be difficulty in developing findings that
this particular proposal had a bearing on the issue, the Planning Commission could opt
to view the area as a whole, and recommend attaching the obligation to this application,
advising that the better argument was most likely that there was no nexus between
these particular amendments and the solution to the drainage issues, which has been
affirmed by the Public Works' determination.
For Commissioner Telesio, Assistant City Attorney Cudey clarified that numerous far-
ranging, more tenuous nexus-based issues have been handled via a Development
Agreement on other projects; and relayed that the required conditions of a project were
based on analysis regarding the associated impacts of the project (i.e., the linkage
which would create a nexus with the project).
For clarification, Ms. Staples noted that in the agenda material (located under Tab C),
there was information related to the additional condition imposed on the applicant,
regarding withholding Building Permits until such time as the improvements were
constructed.
In response, Chairman Chiniaeff relayed that the referenced information was not related
to the proposal presented at this hearing, Mr. Burnell confirming that there were no
proposed density changes, or development patterns in the southern area of the project,
confirming that the amendment encompassed wording corrections, and changes in
acreage, additionally confirming that the added condition Ms. Staples referenced was
applicable to PA No. 6 which was the multi-family area which was not the subject of any
discussion at this hearing, advising that this condition still exists.
Chairman Chiniaeff clarified that A.D. 159 was controlled by the County, and formed by
the property owners for the benefit of a much larger area than just the Paloma del Sol
project, and was beyond the scope of the issue presented at this hearing.
Noting that the Planning Commission would be providing a recommendation to the City
Council, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks noted that in 1999, the City Council
added the additional condition previously referenced, withholding approval of 188 lots
until the storm drain issue is resolved; relayed that it was likely that when this proposal
was presented to the City Council that the status of the drainage issues would be
questioned; and advised that it was staff's opinion that the current condition adequately
addressed the issue, enabling this proposal to move forward.
With respect to the landscaping issue, and for Commissioner Telesio, Chairman
Chiniaeff relayed that typically when a developer was seeking approval of a tract map, it
was not known who would buy that pamel, and it was this party who would be the one to
design the frontyard and sideyard landscaping in conformance with the Specific Plan
concepts, advising that it would more appropriately be required Prior to Approval of
Building Permits; with respect to the applicant's request to amend Condition No. 29,
regarding the requirement for single-story homes where the LDZ was less than 32 feet,
concurred with the request that the language be clarified to state that if the LDZ was 32
feet, there would be no requirement for the single-story buildings; and with respect to
Condition No. 66, regarding pedestrian connections, concurred that if the connection
opened the cut-de-sac to a major arterial, that this connection could create a safety
hazard for children at play.
Commissioner Telesio concurred with Chairman Chiniaeff's and the applicant's
comments regarding Condition No. 66, specifically with respect to reluctance to opening
the cul-de-sac onto an arterial.
With respect to Condition No. 66, regarding the pedestrian links inclusive of the one
associated with the cul-de-sac, Commissioner Mathewson, echoed by Commissioner
Guerriero, noted a desire to maintain this requirement, relaying the need for access from
the street.
For Commissioner Mathewson, Director of Planning Ubnoske noted that staff was
agreeable to changing Condition No. 26 (regarding landscaping), and to require the
landscape plans Prior to Issuance of a Building Permit.
With respect to the commercial area, Chairman Chiniaeff recommended that between
the comer parcel at De Portola/Margarita Roads (which was separately owned), that the
applicant consider making provisions for vehicular access between the parking lots.
MOTION: Commissioner Guerriero moved to close the public hearing; and to approve
staff's recommendation, adopting Resolution Nos. 2001-040, and 2001-041, subject to
the modification of Condition No. 26 (regarding landscaping) to require that the specific
landscape plans be approved Prior to the Issuance of Building Permits. The motion was
seconded by Commissioner Mathewson and voice vote reflected approval with the
exception of Commissioner Olhasso who abstained.
COMMISSIONER'S REPORTS
Commissioner Guerriero thanked staff for addressing the outside storage issue
at the Power Center.
Requesting staff to investigate, Commissioner Guerriero relayed that the timing
of the signal at Cosmic/Humber Drives seemed to be off in the early morning
hours.
Commissioner Mathewson thanked staff for addressing the plethora of illegally
placed Work at home signs in the City.
In response to Commissioner Mathewson's queries regarding the Johnson
property, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed that the slope has been
hydroseeded, and the erosion issue has been addressed to satisfy the San
Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board; and advised that there was a letter
of credit that could be drawn upon to ensure that the landscaping is addressed.
Commissioner Olhasso commended staff for the efforts regarding the installation
of landscaped medians, removing the cones which have been restricting turning
movements; and for Deputy Director of Public Works Parks, relayed that she
would forward locations of particular concern where these installation were still
needed.
Commissioner Guerriero recommended that a landscaped median be installed in
front of the Post Office, Commissioner Telesio concurring that this area should
be addressed due to safety issues.
Per her recent attendance of a meeting of the International Council of Shopping
Centers, Commissioner Olhasso noted her concern as a moderator described
the Temecula Valley as being unfriendly to development, including retail; relayed
that need for retail uses due to the sales tax revenues; and recommended that
Chairman Chiniaeff, along with City Manger staff, meet to correct this impression.
Commissioner OIhasso invited all those present to the Temecula Town
Association's sponsored Christmas Dinner Event, advising that any help with the
provisions of turkeys in advance would be appreciated,

Planninq Application No. PA01-0566 (Development Code Amendment) Dave Hoqan.
Senior Planner
RECOMMENDATION:
2.1 Adopt a Resolution Entitled:
RESOLUTION NO. 2001-042
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF TEMECULA RECOMMENDING THAT THE
CITY COUNCIL DENY AN ORDINANCE ENTITLED "AN
ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
TEMECULA AMENDING CHAPTER 17 OF THE
TEMECULA MUNICIPAL CODE TO MODIFY THE
STANDARDS FOR SECOND DWELLING UNITS
(PLANNING APPLICATION 01-0566)
Senior Planner Hogan provided an overview of the proposed Development Code
Amendment (of record), noting that legislature has indicated that secondary dwelling
units are an integral part of the State's housing market, and that the State has set
maximum size standards for these units which are applicable unless the local jurisdiction
adopts its own ordinance, which the City of Temecula has adopted; relayed that the
State standard, as well as the City's current Ordinance limits the maximum size at 1200
square feet, regardless of the size of the lot; advised that over the past year, staff has
had requests from residents with larger parcels, desiring to build a larger second unit;
specified the current proposal for amendment which was to keep the current maximum
standard (of 1200 square feet) for lots one acre in size, and for lots larger than one acre,
the maximum size permitted would be 2,000 square feet.
Answering the questions of the Planning Commission, for Commissioner Mathewson,
Senior Planner Hogan confirmed that the second dwelling would still be subject to
applicable development standards, such as setbacks, and lot coverage; and for
Commissioner Telesio, relayed that the secondary units could be for rental use but could
not be sold (as a separate unit), per State legislated mandate.
At this time the public was invited to speak
Mr. Ron Knowles, 39675 Cantrell, noted his opposition to revising the City's Code to
allow for a larger second unit, relalying his preference for the standard to be consistent
with the State at a maximum size of 1200 square feet; opined that for provision of a
second unit for the purpose of housing elderly parents the 1200 square feet would be
adequate; and noted his concern with noise, traffic impacts, and the opportunity to use
the unit as a rental if the unit was permitted to be larger.
The Planninq Commission deliberates
In response to Chairman Chiniaeff's comments, Senior Planner Hogan confirmed that
State law stated that if the local jurisdiction did not adopt its own standard regarding this
issue, then the State law would be applicable; advised that a jurisdiction could not set a
limit under 1200 square feet without specific findings regarding the health, safety, and
welfare of the public while, confirming that the size limitation could be more than 1200
square feet; for Commissioner Olhasso, noted that this revision would not affect the
majority of tracts, but only the larger lot areas within the City; and advised that if an
individual had a 2.5 acre lot and constructed an 1800-2,000 square foot second dwelling
unit, there would be ample open area remaining.
Via overheads, Senior Planner Hogan provided examples of the building envelopes on
various lots with the revised standards, noting the requirement to still adhere to the
setback, and maximum lot coverage standards, specifying the substantial area
remaining without building coverage; and clarified that staff did not expect to see more
than approximately two of these units built per year in the City of Temecula due to the
Iow demand.
Noting his concurrence with Mr. Knowles' comments, Commissioner Telesio opined that
the proposed revision would create a second unit benefit for added income; and relayed
his reluctance to support amending ordinances for special interests.
Offering clarification, Chairman Chiniaeff noted that the issue before the Planning
Commission was not regarding whether or not a resident could have a second dwelling
unit, or whether it could be utilized as a rental, which is permitted via State law, but what
the maximum size of this unit should be. In response, Commissioner Telesio opined that
it was the permitted larger size that created a greater opportunity for an income-
producing unit, rather that a granny flat type use.
Chairman Chiniaeff specified the few areas in the City with large enough lots that this
amendment to the Code would have any impact.
In response to Chairman Chiniaeff, City Attorney Thorson confirmed that the City was
preempted by State taw which mandated the allowance of second units, along with the
permission to use the unit as a rental, clarifying that local jurisdictions could regulate the
maximum size (as long as it was 1200 square feet, or larger).
While relaying his support of property rights, Commissioner Mathewson advised that to
permit a 2,000 square foot second dwelling unit would create significant negative
impacts with respect to traffic, aesthetics, and noise; relayed that the need for a 2,000
square foot unit had not been clearly demonstrated; advised that the intent of State taw
was to provide housing opportunities for the elderly, the disabled, family members, and
students, relaying that for these types of housing uses a 2,000 square foot home would
not be necessitated.
For clarification, City Attorney Thorson and Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that if
the Planning Commission took action recommending denial of the recommendation to
amend the Development Code, that the matter would still go to the City Council for final
action, City Attorney Thorson advising that if the Planning Commission took no action,
the item would go forward to the City Council in 40 days.
MOTION: Commissioner Telesio moved to close the public hearing; and to recommend
that the City Council deny approval of the proposed Development Code Amendment, as
reflected in Resolution No. 2001-042, specifying the rationale for recommending denial,
as follows: 1) no sufficient need has been demonstrated to justify the proposed change,
2) the proposed revision, allowing a larger second unit, would provide a greater
opportunity for rental income which was not the intent of the State legislature, and 3) the
resulting negative impacts on the surrounding community, specifically as it relates to
traffic, public safety, noise, and law enforcement. The motion was seconded by
Commissioner Mathewson. (Ultimately this motion passed; see below.)
Commissioner Telesio clarified that the Planning Commission's rationale for
recommending denial of the amendment was not solely based on the greater
opportunities provided for rental uses, but additionally due to the associated negative
impacts in the community.
In concurrence, Commissioner Mathewson noted that with larger units, the impacts
would be more significant with respect to viewscapes, traffic, and noise. Commissioner
Olhasso relayed that there could additionally be law enforcement issues, citing the
potential for a drug dealer to rent one of these back lot units, advising that it would be
her preference to see units of this size confined to the more rural areas in the County.
For informational purposes, Director of Planning Ubnoske noted that in past years, the
City has received a total of approximately four applications for the larger sized units,
relaying that the resident's intent was generally to build a larger home for elderly
parents.
Commissioner Mathewson advised that he was specifically opposed to the vast
differential between the current allowable second unit, at a maximum size of 1200
square feet, and the proposed maximum size of 2,000 square feet, reiterating the
potential for significant impacts, Commissioner Telesio specifying the negative impact for
the adjacent neighboring residents.
At this time voice vote was taken reflecting approval of the motion to recommend that
the City Council deny approval of the proposed Development Code Amendment with
the exception of Commissioner Guerriero who was absent.
COMMISSIONER'S REPORTS
A. With respect to the recent new development that closed escrow on new homes
without gas meters, for Commissioner Olhasso, Director of Planning Ubnoske
relayed that this was a Building and Safety Department issue, noting that the matter
had been forwarded to this department.
B. Regarding the new legislation with respect to provision of water, for Commissioner
Mathewson, City Attorney Thorson concurred with the concept of having a Water
District representative attend a Planning Commission meeting to provide detailed
information regarding the local impacts, advising that if there was additional
information available from the State agencies, that staff would provide this data to
the Commissioners, as well.

On June 6, 2001 The City Planning Commission approved PA01-0025, a Development Plan
application for a 21,385 square foot two-story tilt up concrete auto service building located west of
Diaz Road and north of Rancho California Road in the Temecula Business Park. The approved
elevation plan is for a combination of smooth concrete panels with colored sandblasted finish along
the lower wall sections and vertical columns of the south and east sides of the building. The building
is now under construction and the walls have been installed.
On December 10, 2001 the applicant sent a letter to the Planning Department requesting to
eliminate the sandblast finish, because of his concern about the potential for the painted sandblast
finish to appear like stucco and show imperfections, which would detract from the aesthetic
appearance of the building. Staff did not support the request and indicated that the Planning
Commission would need to make the final decision. On December 18, 2001 the applicant filed
application, PA01-0644, to eliminate the exterior sandblast finish and requested that the project be
scheduled for the next available Planning Commission meeting in order to meet construction
completion timelines.
ANALYSIS
Staff does not support the request to eliminate sandblasting. The Industrial Design G[Jidelines state
that walls should "use various siding material, i.e. metal, masonry, concrete texturing, cement or
plaster to produce effects of texture and relief that provide architectural interest." (p. VI-8, 4a). The
City Development Code (Commercial/Industrial Performance Standards) emphasizes the balancing
of aesthetic design qualities with functional development (Section 17.08.070.A).
Staff recently met with the applicant and his contractor to suggest several alternative finishes, such
as painting affer the sandblasting, not painting the sandblasted wall sections, using other types of
textures, or enhancing the entry with sandblasting and permitting the remaining portion of the wall to
be painted. At the time of this writing, the applicant has not agreed to any other alternative finish
suggested by Staff.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
This project has been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and is
Categorically Exempt from CEQA (Section 15303 Class 3 New Construction).
SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS
The request has been determined by staff to be inconsistent with the original findings for approval
(Attached). It is staff's opinion that the proposed change does not meet the intent of the original
approved building elevation exhibit nor the Industrial Design Guidelines to provide a variation of
texture and relief. In addition, Staff also believes that approval of this proposed change would
potentially set a precedent for future applicants to use only paint without additional finishes to
achieve contrast in wall surfaces.
Staff recommends denial of this application or requires an approved acceptable alternative in order
to make the findings of approval. Draft Resolutions of either option are attached.
FINDINGS FOR DENIAL:
The proposed structure is not in conformance with the general plan for Temecula and with
all applicable requirements of state law and other ordinances of the city. Section
17.08.070.A of the City Development Code (Commercial/Industrial Performance Standards)
emphasizes the balancing of aesthetic design qualities with functional development. The
Industrial Design Guidelines recommend that a variety of siding materials be used to create
texture and relief to provide diversity and visual interest. The applicant has not agreed to
consider any other alternative texture variation after requesting to eliminate the sandblast
finish and therefore is not consistent with either of the abovementioned ordinance objectives.
The overall development of the structure is not designed for the maintenance of the general
welfare of the community. The elimination of sandblasted texture treatment of a long,
unarticulated wall facing a public thoroughfare is inconsistent with the stated goals and
policies of the General Plan Community Design Element, which states "One of the most
pressing community design issues is the need to develop design policies and standards for
use by the development community and City officials. The is general agreement that site
planning, architecture and landscape architecture should be of high quality for both future
development and modifications to existing development."

Sandblasting the con.ere on the tilt-up building project in progress for
Temecula Radiator located at 43191 Rancho Way, Planning Application.
No. ¥A01-0025.
Dear Projec~ Planner,
I have had 25 years experience in flit-up concrete building projects. It has been my
experience that due to the make-up of materials in the concrete and the fact that it is
colored concrete it should not bc sandblasted. When colored concrete is sandblasted
it will always show patch-a-sack and saw-cut lines. In addition the aggregate and sand
will always appear gray and never change. I would also warn that if thc concrete is
painted after sandblasting it will look like stucco, This look would be unable to be
changed for the life of the building.
It is my recommendation that instead of sandblasting we follow the same lines but paint
two different colors to give the same effect. Two excellent examples of what I am
suggesting can be seen on the Keaton project on Rancho Way as well as the Grant project
that has been up for a y~ar.
If Temecula Radiator is required to follow the original plans set forth in the Development
Plan I cannot guarantee that the end result will not be adverse to the look we are trying to
achieve. Therefore ifI am to continue with the original plan I will require a waiver
signed by Mr, Eves stating that he understands these provisions.
Respectfully,
Mark Sharp

Dear Planning Commission,
This is in reference to the letter from Sharp Construction, Inc. about the project for
Temecula Radiator at 43191 Rancho Way.
At this time I would like to ask for an appointment to speak to the Planning Commission
regarding granting a modification to the project. We are seeking to eliminate the
sandblasting and replace it with paint using the same detail. The outcome would be more
controlled and the effect would be the same.
As I am sure you are aware time is of the essence. Construction is progressing in a
timely manner and a decision needs to be made quickly.
I would appreciate an appointment at your earliest convenience, as this matter should
only take a few moments of the committees' time.
Sincerely,
Graham Eves, Owner
