NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF ~ CITY OF
TEMECULA DOES RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. That the above r~itations are true and correct.
Sectinn 2. Findings. That the Temecula Planning Commission hereby makes the
following findings, to wit:
A. The fmdings for the original approval for Vesting Tentative Tract Map No.
23372, Amendment No. 1 are found to remain valid except as amended herein.
R:\$\STAFFRPT~Z3372.PC~ 12/30/93 klb 3
B. No subsequent changes are proposed in the project which would require revisions
to the previously Certified Environmental Impact Report (EJR) No. 202. The project does not
include new significant, unmitigable environmental impacts that were not considered in the
previously Certified Environmental Impact Report on the project.
C. No new information of substantial importance to the project has become available.
D. The project has been previously approved as a Vesting Tentative Map.
Subsequently, Planning Area No. 40 is not consistent with the City's General Plan. The
General Plan land use designation for Planning Area No. 40 is High Density Residential (13-20
d.u./acre). The density of this area that was approved through the Specific Plan and the Vesting
Tentative Tract Map is 25 d.u./acre. This density has been assured through the vesting map and
therefore supersedes the General Plan for this Planning Area. Planning Area No. 41 is
consistent with the City's General Plan. The General Plan land use designation for Planning
Area No. 41 is Medium Density Residential (7-12 d.u./acre) and the Specific Plan designation
is Medium High Density Residential (7.7 d.u./acre target density).
E. The proposed use or action complies with State Planning and Zoning Laws. The
proposed use complies with the Subdivision Map Act, and City of Temecula Ordinances No. 460
and 348.
F. The site is suitable to accommodate the proposed land use in-terms of the size and
shape of the lot configuration, circulation patterns, access, and intensity of use, due to the fact
that the proposed residential development complies with the standards of Ordinances No. 460
and 348.
G. The project as designed and conditioned will not adversely affect the public health
or welfare, due to the fact that the Conditions of Approval include mitigation measures.
H. The project is compatible with surrounding land uses. The harmony in scale,
bulk, height, intensity, and coverage creates a compatible physical relationship with adjoining
properties, because low-medium density residential uses exist to the east and are buffered by a
goff course to the north and west of the site. The General Plan Land Use designations are
medium density residential for the parcels which are immediately adjacent to the north and west
of the site.
I. The proposal will not have an adverse effect on surrounding property, because
it does not represent a significant change to the present or planned land use of the area, due to
the fact that the proposed use is compatible with the surrounding land uses.
J. The project has acceptable access to a dedicated right-of-way which is open to,
and useable by, vehicular traffic, because access will be off of Meadows Parkway which will
be a publicly maintained street.
K. The design of the project and the type of improvements are such that they are not
in conflict with easements for access through or use of the property within the proposed project.
R:\S\STAFFRPT\23372.PC2 12/30/93 Idb 4
L. Said findings are supported by maps and environmental documents associated with
these applications and here'm incorporated by reference.
M. As conditioned pursuant to Section 4, the Tentative Tract Map is compatible with
the health, safety and welfare of the community.
Section 3. Environmental Compliance. Environmental Impact Report (EIR) No. 202
was previously adopted by Riverside County for Specific Plan No. 199. Staff has determined
that said EIR still applies to this subdivision because no subsequent, unmitigable changes are
proposed in the project which would require revisions to the previous Certified Environmental
Impact Report. The project does not include new significant, unmitigable environmental impacts
that were not considered in the previously Certified Environmental Impact Report on the project.
Section 4. Conditions. That the City of Temecula Planning Commission hereby
approves the Second One Year Extension of Time for Vesting Tentative Tract Map No. 23372,
Amendment No. 1, a proposal for 469 dwelling units on 46.9 acres located at the northwest
comer of Rancho California Road and Meadows Parkway and known as Assessor's Parcel No.
953-060-007 subject to the following conditions:
A. Exhibit A, attached hereto.
Section 5. PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 6th day of December, 1993.
