Findings. That the City of Temecula Planning Commission hereby makes the following findings: A. 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: 1. The city is proceeding in a timely fashion with the preparation of the R:\S\STAFFRPT\243PP.PC 6/30/93 klb 21 general plan. 2. The planning agency fmds, in approving projects and taking other actions, including the issuance of building permits, each of the following: a. 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. b. 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. c. The proposed use or action complied with all other applicable requirements of state law and local ordinances. A. 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. B. The Planning Commission in recommending approval of the proposed Change of Zone, makes the following findings, to wit: 1. There is a reasonable probability that the zone change from R-R (Rural Residential) to C-P-S (Scenic Highway Commercial) will be consistent with the future General Plan. The recommended Land Use designation in the draft General Plan for the site is Community Commercial. It is likely that C-P-S uses will be similar in function to those recommended in the Community Commercial land use designation. 2. There is little or no probability of substantial detriment to or interference with the future General Plan be'mg considered if the proposed use is ultimately inconsistent with the plan, because the proposed uses are consistent with those which are found within proximity of the site. The Draft Land Use Plan identifies Community Commercial uses to the east of the site, Business Park uses to the north of the site, and Professional Office uses to the south of the site. Community Commercial uses exist to the west of the site (Palm Plaza). While the C-P-S zoning will ultimately be inconsistent with the City's General Plan upon its adoption (it will be an interim zoning designation), this inconsistency will be rectified upon the adoption of the City's zoning map. C. The Change of Zone is compatible with the health, safety and welfare of the community. Section 2. Environmental Compliance. Environmental Impact Report No. 340 was completed for Specific Plan No. 263. Planning Application No. 93-0043 is consistent with the R:\S\STAFFRPT~243PP.PC 6/30/93 klb 22 development proposals and standards of Spec'ffic Plan No. 263. The potent'mi environmental impacts of this project were analyzed in Environmental Impact Report No. 340 in that the proposed development is a portion of the proposed 1,375,000 square foot Retail Commercial Core area as analyzed for Specific Plan No. 263 and EIR No. 340.
