BACKGROUND SUMMARY
On August 23, 2019, Rudy De La O submitted Planning Application Nos. PA19-1164 and PA19-
1165, a Development Plan and Conditional Use Permit for the construction of an approximately
54,383 square foot Temecula Valley Lexus automobile dealership that includes rooftop parking,
sales, service, and parts storage located at 42081 DLR Drive.
Staff has worked with the applicant to ensure that all concerns have been addressed, and the
applicant concurs with the recommended Conditions of Approval.
ANALYSIS
Site Plan
The project is located in the Service Commercial zoning district on a vacant lot. The project is
for the construction of an approximately 54,843 square foot automobile dealership that includes
rooftop parking, sales, service, and parts storage.
There are two points of access to the project site off of DLR Drive. The project is required to
provide 203 parking spaces per Table 17.24.040 of the City of Temecula Development Code and
proposes 400 parking spaces which includes spaces for automotive display, employees, and
customer parking. The parking spaces for employees and customers are conditioned to be
clearly identified through the use of signage or paint to ensure that those parking spaces are
dedicated for and used by employees and customers.
Architecture
The architectural design of the project is consistent with similar buildings within the Temecula
Auto Mall and incorporates aluminum composite panels, stone cladding, and dryvit finishes. In
addition, the project contains three-roll up service doors on the rear of the building that provide
access to the service bays as automobile repairs would take place in the interior of the building.
The second floor of the building is designated for parts storage, offices, and employee parking as
well as freeway display of product.
Landscaping
While there are no requirements for landscape coverage for automobile dealerships, the project,
when completed the project would provide 9% landscaping. Plant types include queen palm,
crape myrtle, fern pine, Indian Hawthorne, star jasmine, and lavender. The project also meets
the City of Temecula Landscape Standards for automobile dealerships.
LEGAL NOTICING REQUIREMENTS
The notice of the public hearing was published in the U-T San Diego on December 19, 2019 and
mailed to the property owners within 1,000-foot radius.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project has been
deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review (Section 15332, Class 32,
In-Fill Development Projects);
(a) The project is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable
general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and regulations.
The project is consistent with the applicable General Plan designation because automobile sales
with outdoor display and/or storage of vehicles is a conditionally allowable use within the
Service Commercial district. The project also meets all applicable General Plan and Zoning
policies and regulations.
(b) The proposed development occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five
acres substantially surrounded by urban uses.
The project is located within City limits and is located on a site that is 4.73 acres in size. The
proposed project is substantially surrounded by commercial development, vacant land zoned for
commercial development, and major roadways.
(c) The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species.
The project was required to go through the Habitat Assessment and Negotiation Strategy
(HANS) process since the project site is located within a Multi Species Habitation Conservation
Strategy (MSHCP) criteria cell. After review by the Regional Conservation Authority and State
and Federal agencies, a Joint Project Review was issued (JPR 19-11-04-02) that determined the
project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species.
(d) Approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air
quality, or water quality.
The proposed project was required to prepare a Project-Specific Water Quality Management
Plan (WQMP) that was reviewed and conceptually accepted for entitlement by City Staff, as the
WQMP meets the requirements of the City of Temecula. A traffic analysis was not required as
part of this project and the proposed use is conditionally allowed within the Service Commercial
zoning district. Therefore, the project is not anticipated to result in any significant effects
relating to traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality as the project, as conditioned, is an
allowed use per the City of Temecula General Plan.
(e) The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services.
The project site is surrounded by development and is able to be serviced by all required utilities
and public services.

Section 3. Environmental Findings. The Planning Commission hereby makes the
following environmental findings and determinations in connection with the approval of the
Development Plan:
A. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project
has been deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review (Section 15332,
In-Fill Development Projects);
(a) The project is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable general
plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and regulations.
The project is consistent with the applicable General Plan designation because automobile sales
with outdoor display and/or storage of vehicles is a conditionally allowable use within the Service
Commercial district. The project also meets all applicable General Plan and Zoning policies and
regulations.
(b) The proposed development occurs within city limits on a project site of no more than five acres
substantially surrounded by urban uses.
The project is located within City limits and is located on a site that is 4.73 acres in size. The
proposed project is substantially surrounded by commercial development, vacant land zoned for
commercial development, and major roadways.
(c) The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species.
The project was required to go through the Habitat Assessment and Negotiation Strategy (HANS)
process since the project site is located within a Multi Species Habitation Conservation Strategy
(MSHCP) criteria cell. After review by the Regional Conservation Authority and State and
Federal agencies a Joint Project Review was issued (JPR 19-11-04-02) that determined the project
site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species.
(d) Approval of the project would not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air
quality, or water quality.
The proposed project was required to prepare a Project-Specific Water Quality Management Plan
(WQMP) that was reviewed and conceptually accepted for entitlement by City Staff as the WQMP
meets the requirements of the City of Temecula. A traffic analysis was not required as part of this
project and the proposed use is conditionally allowed within the Service Commercial zoning
district. Therefore, the project is not anticipated to result in any significant effects relating to
traffic, noise, air quality, or water quality as the project, as conditioned, is an allowed use per the
City of Temecula General Plan.
(e) The site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public services.
The project site is surrounded by development and is able to be serviced by all required utilities
and public services.
Section 4. Conditions. The Planning Commission of the City of Temecula approves
Planning Application No. PA19-1165, a Conditional Use Permit for the construction of an
approximately 54,383 square foot Temecula Valley Lexus automobile dealership that includes
rooftop parking, sales, service, and parts storage located at 42081 DLR Drive, and makes a finding
