SECTION I. Findings.
That the Temecula Planning Commission hereby makes the following findings:
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65360, a newly incorporated city shall adopt
a general plan within thirty (30) months following incorporation. During that 30-month
period of time, the city is not subject to the requirement that a general plan be adopted
or the requirements of state law that its decisions be consistent with the general plan,
if all of the following requirements are met:
The city is proceeding in a timely fashion with the preparation of the general
plan.
The planning agency finds, in approving projects and taking other actions,
including the issuance of building permits, each of the following:
StSTAFFRPT~27239* 1 .PM 7
(1)
There is a reasonable probability that the land use or action
proposed will be consistent with the general plan proposal being
considered or studied or which will be studied within a
reasonable time.
(2)
There is little or no probability of substantial detriment to or
interference with the future adopted general plan if the proposed
use or action is ultimately inconsistent with the plan.
(3)
The proposed use or action complied with all other applicable
requirements of state law and local ordinances.
The Riverside County General Plan, as amended by the Southwest Area Community
Plan, (hereinafter "SWAP") was adopted prior to the incorporation of Temecula as the
General Plan for the southwest portion of Riverside County, including the area now
within the boundaries of the City. At this time, the City has adopted SWAP as its
General Plan guidelines while the City is proceeding in a timely fashion with the
preparation of its General Plan.
The proposed Tentative Parcel Map is consistent with SWAP and meets the
requirements set forth in Section 65360 of the Government Code, to wit:
The City is proceeding in a timely fashion with a preparation of the General
Plan.
The Planning Commission finds, in approving projects and taking other actions,
including the issuance of building permits, pursuant to this title, each of the
following:
(1)
There is a reasonable probability that Tentative Parcel Map No.
27239 Amd. No. 1 proposed will be consistent with the General
Plan proposal being considered or studied or which will be
studied within a reasonable time. Tentative Parcel Map No.
27239 Amd. No. 1 is consistent with Ordinance No. 460,
Ordinance No. 348 and SWAP and it is likely that it will be
consistent with the General Plan.
(2)
There is little or no probability of substantial detriment to or
interference with the future adopted General Plan if the proposed
use or action is ultimately inconsistent with the plan. Even if the
project is approved and is found to be inconsistent with the
General Plan, industrial uses are the predominant use in the area.
(3)
The proposed use or action complies with all other applicable
requirements of state law and local ordinances. The parcels
conform to the requirements and criteria prescribed by Ordinance
No. 460 and Ordinance No. 348.
4. Pursuant to Section 7.1 of County Ordinance No. 460, no subdivision may be
approved unless the following findings are made:
That the proposed land division is consistent with applicable general and
specific plans.
That the design or improvement of the proposed land division is consistent with
applicable general and specific plans.
That the site of the proposed land division is physically suitable for the type of
development.
That the site of the proposed land division is physically suitable for the
proposed density of the development.
That the design of the proposed land division or proposed improvements are not
likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and
unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat.
That the design of the proposed land division or the type of improvements are
not likely to cause serious public health problems.
That the design of the proposed land division or the type of improvements will
not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through,
or use of, property within the proposed land division. A land division may be
approved if it is found that alternate easements for access or for use will be
provided and that they will be substantially equivalent to ones previously
acquired by the public. This subsection shall apply only to easements of record
or to easements established by judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
The Planning Commission in recommending approval of the proposed Tentative Parcel
Map, makes the following findings, to wit:
Ac
The proposed land division is consistent with the Southwest Area Community
Plan (SWAP), Ordinance 348, and Ordinance 460. The SWAP designation is
General Light Industrial. The parcels meet the requirements of Section 10.10
of Ordinance No. 460 and they meet the 20,000 square foot minimum lot size
criteria under Ordinance No. 348.
The lot design is logical and meets the approval of the City's Planning and
Public Works Departments. The lot design facilitates parking, access, and site
design.
The project will not have a significant adverse effect on the environment. A
Negative Declaration is recommended and all impacts will be reduced to
insignificant levels through recommended conditions of approval. An Initial
Study was prepared including mitigation which will alleviate all impacts.
There is a reasonable probability that the project will be consistent with the
City's General Plan once adopted, based on analysis contained in the Staff
Report. The surrounding area currently supports industrial projects, and is
identified by SWAP as General Light Industrial.
There is not a likely probability of substantial detriment to or interference with
the future General Plan, if the proposed use is ultimately inconsistent with the
plan. If the proposed use is inconsistent, it will not be detrimental because of
the industrial nature of surrounding uses.
The project as proposed provides adequate provisions for future passive or
natural solar heating or cooling opportunities. All six proposed parcels include
sufficient southern exposure.
Said findings are supported by minutes, maps, exhibits and environmental
documents associated with these applications and herein incorporated by
reference. This Staff Report contains mapping, Conditions of Approval, and an
Initial Study which support the Staff recommendation.
As conditioned pursuant to SECTION III, the Tentative Parcel Map proposed is
compatible with the health, safety and welfare of the community.
SECTION II. Environmental Compliance.
An Initial Study prepared for this project indicates that although the proposed project could
have a significant impact on the environment, there will not be a significant effect in this case
because the mitigation measures described in the Conditions of Approval have been added to
the project, and a Negative Declaration, therefore, is hereby granted.
SECTION III. Conditions.
That the City of Temecula Planning Commission hereby approves Tentative Parcel Map No.
27239 Amd. No. 1 for the subdivision of a 13.94 acre parcel into 6 parcels located westerly
of Ynez Road and northerly of Winchester Road and known as Assessor's Parcel No. 910-
