APPLICATION INFORMATION APPLICANT: Costain Homes, Inc. REPRESENTATIVE: Sanford Edward PROPOSAL: A Request for Approval of an Amendment and Restatement of Development Agreement No. 5 for Planning Area No. 16 (Final Tract Maps 22916 and 22916-3), within Specific Plan No. 199. LOCATION: Located northwest of Rancho Vista and Butterfield Stage Roads EXISTING ZONING: SP (Specific Plan) SURROUNDING ZONING: North: South: East: West: SP (Specific Plan) SP (Specific Ran) R-A (Residential Agricultural) SP (Specific Plan) PROPOSED ZONING: N/A GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION: Low Medium Density Residential (3 to 6 dwelling units per acre) EXISTING LAND USE: VBcBnt R:\STAFFRPT~107PA94.PC 6/7/96 klb SURROUNDING LAND USES: North: South: East: West: Single Family Dwellings Vacant Single Family Dwelling Single Family Dwellings PROJECT STATISTICS Number of Lots: Existing Development Agreement Fee (1995): Proposed Development Agreement Fee: 39 95,271.00/Unit 93,200.O0/Unit BACKGROUND On November 7, 1988 Development Agreement No. 5 was approved by the County of Riverside for the Margarita Village Specific Plan (S.P. 199) which includes Tracts 22916 and 22916-3. Costain Homes has approached the City to execute an Amendment and Restatement of this Development Agreement in order to receive a reduction in the Development Agreement fees. As a first step in the process, the City and the developer entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on January 10, 1995. This MOU authorizes the collection of 93,200.00 per unit Interim Public Facility Fee when the owners obtain a Certificate of Occupancy for the first production home built in the project. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The proposed Development Agreement Fee includes only an Interim Public Facilities Fee and has eliminated other fees associated with County approved Development Agreements such as the Regional Parkland Fee, Habitat Conservation Fee, and Public Services Offset Fee. Interim Public Facilities Fee The Amended and Re-Stated Development Agreement has a duration period of ten (10) years and applies to Tracts 22916 and 22916-3. These tracts currently contain 39 single-family tots (sixty-eight lots were included at the time the MOU was executed; however this number has decreased over time). The terms of the MOU allow for the Interim Public Facilities Fee to be 93,200.00 per unit and paid for the first five (5) years of the term of the Agreement. After this period, the developer will either continue to pay the Interim Public Facility Fee of 93,200,00 or such other Public Facilities Fee adopted by the City and applied to other residential projects. R:\STAFFRPT\I07PA94.PC 6f7/96 klb 2 ANALYSIS The existing approved Development Agreement No. 5 fee (1995) includes the following fees: Public Facilities Fee Regional Parkland Fee Habitat Conservation Fee Public Services Offset Fee 92,331,00 ~431.00 9320.00 ~2,189.00 Total Development Agreement Fee $5,271.00 According to the County, all County approved Development Agreements have a section which purports to require the split of certain fees between the County and a city should any portion of the property covering .the agreement become part of a city. That section provides that the Regional Parkland Fee, and the Habitat Conservation and the Open Space Land Fee would continue to be fully payable to the County. Additionally, two-thirds (2/3) of the Public Services Offset Fee and 5.3% of the Public Facilities Fee would be payable to the County. Therefore, according to the County, a total of 92,319.28 is payable to the County from the 95,271.00 Development Agreement Fee, leaving 92,951.72 as the City's portion of this fee. The proposed 93,200.00 Interim Public Facilities Fee is greater than 92,951.72, City's portion of the existing Development Agreement Fee, should the County's interpretation of the fees be used. However, the City Attorney contends that the County's interpretation of the Development Agreement is not in accordance with State law which provides that the benefits of a Development Agreement as well as its burdens transfer to a City upon incorporation. As the property which is the subject of this Development Agreement is now within the City boundaries, it is the City Attorney's opinion that the County is no longer entitled to any fees under the Development Agreement. EXISTING ZONING AND GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION This project is consistent with the General Plan since the General Plan currently designates the site as Low Medium Density Residential and the approved development project which is implemented by this Development Agreement is consistent with this designation. This project is consistent with Specific Plan No. 199, since the development project which is implemented by this Development Agreement meets all the requirements of this Specific Plan. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION A Initial Study was prepared for this project and it revealed no significant impacts. Therefore, Staff recommends adoption of a Negative Declaration. SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS Staff supports approval of this project. R:\STAFFRPT\107PA94.PC 6/7/96 klb 3 FINDINGS The Amendment and Restatement of Development Agreement No. 5 is consistent with the objectives, policies, general land uses, and programs specified in the City of Temecula's General Plan in that the Development Agreement makes reasonable provision for the use of certain real property for residential development and is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Designation of Low Medium Density Residential. The Amendment and Restatement of Development Agreement No. 5 is compatible with the uses authorized in, and the regulations prescribed for, the land use district in which the Property subject to the Development Agreement is located as the Development Agreement provides for single family homes. This Development Agreement is consistent with good planning practices by providing for the opportunity to develop the Property consistent with the General Plan. The Amendment and Restatement of Development Agreement No. 5 is in conformity with the public convenience, general welfare, and good land use practice because it makes reasonable provision for a balance of housing opportunities compatible with the remainder of the City. The Amendment and Restatement of Development Agreement No. 5 will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare because it provides adequate assurances for the protection thereof. Notice of the public hearing before the Planning Commission was published in a newspaper of general circulation at least ten (10) days before the Planning Commission public hearing, and mailed or delivered at least ten (10) days prior to the hearing to the project applicant and to each agency expected to provide water, sewer, schools, police protection, and fire protection, and to all property owners within six hundred feet (600') of the property as shown on the latest equalized assessment roll. Notice of the public hearing before the Planning Commission included the date, time, and place of the public hearing, the identity of the hearing body, a general explanation of the matter to be considered, a general description and text or by diagram of the location of the real property that is the subject of the hearing, and of the need to exhaust administrative remedies. The Amendment and ReStatement of Development Agreement No. 5 complies with the goals and objectives of the Circulation Element of the General Plan. The traffic impacts of the development over the period of the Development Agreement will be substantially mitigated by the mitigation measures and conditions of approval imposed. The Amendment and Restatement of Development Agreement No. 5 complies with requirements of the zoning district in which the applicant proposes to develop in that the Specific Plan zoning of Medium Density Residential is consistent with the Low Medium Density Residential General Plan Land Use Designation. 9. The benefits that will accrue to the people of the City of Temecula from this legislation and this Amendment and Restatement of Development Agreement No. 5 are as follows: City and Owner acknowledge that development of the Project will result in: a. Generation of municipal revenue; b. Construction of public infrastructure facilities; Enhancement of the quality of life; including residential opportunities for present and future residents of the City; The opportunity for an adjacent residential-commercial project creating significant job opportunities, sales tax and ad valorera tax revenues for the City; e. Payment of Public Facilities Fees (fire and traffic signal mitigation); and, Participation in special assessment districts to finance City and regional infrastructure improvements.

The Amendment and Restatement of Development Agreement No. 5 will not create any impacts upon the environment. The overall project (Specific Plan No. 199 - Margarita Village) was analyzed in Environmental Impact Report No 202. Any mitigation measures recommended in EIR No. 202 will remain applicable to the project. Further, mitigation measures are contained in the conditions of approval for TM22916 R:\STAFFRPT\I07PA94.PC 6/ll/96klb 26 ATTACHMENT NO. 4 CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT FOR THE MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING DECEMBER 13, 1995 R:~STAFFRPTH07PA94.PC 6/ll/96klb 27 APPRO CITY A'I'~'ORNEY TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: CITY OF TEMECULA AGENDA REPORT City Manager/City Council Gary Thornhill, Planning Director December 13, 1994 Memorandum of Understanding Concerning Specific Plan #199, Cosrain Homes RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve the Memorandum of Understanding concerning Specific Plan No. 199 for Cosrain Homes, authorizing the payment of development fees at a specified level and directing the Mayor to execute the Agreement on behalf of the City and the City Clerk to attest thereto. BACKGROUND: The attached Memorandum of Understanding will authorize Cosrain Homes to pull building permits and occupancy permits for homes in their development, without payment of the Public Facilities Fees until such time as the first production home obtains its Certificate of Occupancy. This provision is consistent with previous approvals granted to similar projects in the City. The City is currently negotiating a new Development Agreement between the City and Cosrain for this project. Approval of this Agreement will not mandate that the City Council approve the draft Development Agreement. In the event the City Council denies the draft Development Agreement, the Memorandum of Understanding provides that Cosrain will then pay the Public Facilities Fees as provided in the existing Development Agreement No. 5. This Memorandum of Understanding will allow the development of homes in the Cosrain project to move forward in an expeditious fashion. Cosrain is agreeing to pay an Interim Public Facility Fee in the amount of $3,200.00 per unit. As construction and substantial work on the homes has already begun, there should be relatively little delay in the City's receipt of the Interim Public Facilities Fee. The indemnity provisions of this Memorandum of Understanding are slightly different than the executed Memorandum of Understanding between the City and Coscan for the Roripaugh Droject. However, the existing develoDment agreement (Riverside County Development Agreement No. 5) contains very broad indemnity language sufficient to protect the City's interests. This Memorandum of Understanding contains adequate language protecting the City against any challenges to the fee issue. The Planning Commission and City Council will be presented in the near f, ,ture with the draft DeveloDment Agreement. The terms of the draf~ Development Agreement will be subject to extensive negotiations between the City and the develoDer. FISCAL IMPACT: Slight delay in initial receipt of Interim Public Facilities Fees as they are delayed until the first Certificate of Occupancy for the production units, but would be paid in the event the City Council denies the draft Development Agreement within thirty days of the City's demand. ATTACHMENTS: Memorandum of Understanding. 1WEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING CONCERNING PLANNING AREA NO. OF SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 199 THIS MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING, (the "Memorandum") is made and entered into as of , 1994 by and between the City of Temecula (the "City") and Costain Homes, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Owner"). RECITAL~ A. The City Council of the City of Temecuh is reviewing and considering, as provided by hw, an Amendment and Restatement of Development Agreement between City and Owner, (the "Draft Agreement"). B. Owner is developing a residential project in what is known as Planning Area No. of Specific Plan No. 199, Tract No. 22916 and 22916-3 (the 'Project'). The Project is currently subject to Development Agreement No. 5 between the County of Riverside (the *County") and Kaiser Development Company, a California corporation; Mesa Homes, a California corporation; Margarita Village Development Company, a California joint venture comprised of Buie-Rancho ,C~!ifornia, Ltd., a California limited partnership and Nevada-Rancho California, Ltd., a California limit~l partnership; and Tayco, a California general partnership comprised of Taylor Woodrow Homes, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and others (the "Development AgnR~ment No. 5"), which requires Owner to pay textdin development fees (the *Development Fee"). C. Riverside County Ordinance No. 659, as adopted by the City, establishes public facilities and sexyices impact fees for residential development with City ('RSA Fees"). City requires these revenues to mitigate the impact of development. City requires RSA Fees from development of the Project in order to complete capital projects to mitigate the impact of the development. D. As the resuli of meetings between representatives of the City and representatives of the Owner, the City has agreed that the Project would be eligible for a Development Fee reduction due to: (i) the excessive level at which the County originally calculated the Development Fee; (ii) the high level of assessment district tax existing on the Project; and Ctii) the entry level nature of the homes to be built in the Project. E. The Development Agreement No. 5 provided for public facilities and services impact fees ("County Impact Fees') higher than the RSA Fees. These higher fees, particularly during the present recession, unduly discourage and delay development and thereby prevent City from ever receiving the RSA Fees. Consequently, the City desires to reduce the County Impact Fees for residential development in the Project to a level comparable to the RSA Fees. F. The Draft Agreement provides for Owner to pay the sum of Three- Thousand, Two-Hundred Dollars ($3,200.00) for each residential unit as the Interim Public Facilities Fee. The Draft Agreement provides for the collection of any Interim Public Facilities Fee to be deferred until such time as Owner obtained a certificate of occupancy for the first production home built in the Project. G. Owner contemplates commencing construction of the homes for the Project (68 units) prior w acceptance by the City Council of City of the Draft Agreement. H. City desires, as an acconunodation to Owner, to permit Owner to pay the Interim Public Facilities Fee contemplated in the Dmf't Agreement for all the homes in the Project, despite the fact that the Draft Agreement providing for payment of the Interim Public Facilities Fee has not yet been appwved by City. NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, City and Owner agree as follows: 1. In lieu of any fee required by Development Agreement No. 5, RSA Fee or City Public Facilities Fee, Owner shall pay an Interim Public Facilities Fee in the amount of Three-Thousand, Two-Hundred Dollars ($3,200.00) per dwelling unit. If City fails to approve or adopt the Draft Agreement or if the Interim Public Facilities Fee, as established by City, is some number other than Three-Thousand, Two-Hundred Dollars ($3,200.00) per dwelling unit, then the fee paid by Owner to City shall be adjusted accordingly. Owner shall pay any increase or City shall pay to Owner any decrease within thirty (30) days from the effective date of City Council's action on the Amendment and Restatement of Development Agreement. 2. The Interim Public Facilities Fee for all units shall be deferred until such time as a certificate of occupancy has been obtained for the first production home built in the Project. Thereafter, the Intefim Public Facilities Fee shall be paid at the time of issuance of building permits for each residential unit consumcted in the Project. 3. Indemnity and Cost of Litigation. 3.1 County Litigation Concerning A~reement. In the event the County seeks to challenge the right of City and Owner w enter into this Memorandum, and institutes an action, suit or proceeding to challenge this Memorandum or invalidate and/or enjoin the enforcement of this Memorandum, City and Owner agree to cooperate and participate in a joint defense in any action against the parties, their officers, agents, and employees, from and against any and all such obligations, liability, suit, claim, loss, judgment or lien, resulting from such action(s) brought by County, (but excluding actions to expunge any lis pendens) and to share the costs associated with attorneys, fee.~ and costs that the parties may incur as the result of any such action or lawsnit to challenge City and/or Owner's legal authority to enter into this Memorandum. Owner's defense costs herein shall be its pro rata r:Xalenda'zPt~os~in-mou share among all impacted landowners based on a ratio of contribution of total units owned by Owner which ar~ subject to this Memorandum 'compared to the total number of units within the City in which the City has lowered the County fees. Damages (including the diff~c~ in the amount of any Intexim Public Facilities Fee and the amount of the County Development Agreement Fee paid by Owner to City pursuant to the terms of this Memorandum) shall be the responsibility of Owner. To the extent Owner has paid Interim Public Facilities Fees and/or County Development Agreement Fees to City of which it is adjudicated are lawfully the funds of County, City shall pay such sums to County and Owner shall have such liability for the payment of the difference between such fees reduced by the amount paid by the City. City and Owner shall muvT~lly agree on legal counsel to be retained'to defend any such action(s) bwught by the County as herein provided. City and Owner each reserve the fight to withdraw from the defense of the County litigation in the event the County prevails at the trial level and there is an appeal. If either party withdraws after the trial and there is an appeal, the remaining party shall pay all the costs and fees associated with said appeal. 3.2 Public Facilities Fees Shortf~ll. In the event the County prevails in any legal action or other proceeding to challenge, set aside, or enjoin the enforcement of this Memorandum and a trial court determines that Owner and/or the City is liable to make up any shortfall between the amount of the Intofire Public Facilities Fee or the City Public Facilities Fee, as the case amy be, and the County Development Agreement Fee which would otherwise have been imposed pursuant to Development Agreement No. 5, then Owner shall be responsible for paying any such shortfall subject to City's payment to County of any amounts collected and held by City under the terms of Development Agreement No. 5. Such payment by City to County shall reduce Owner's !iahility to County for payment of such fees by a like amount paid by City. 3.3 County Prew{ls in Litigation - Severability. In the event the County prevails at the uial court level against the City or the Owner as described in Section 3.1 of this Memorandum, the mount of the Interim Public Facilities Fee or the City Public Facilities Fee, as the case may be, shall revert to the amount of the County Development Agreement Fee in effect at the time of entry of the final judgment in favor of the County (or such lesser amount as determined by the Court). In the event this Memorandum is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a trial court of competent jurisdiction, Owner shall thereafter pay the County Development Agreement Fee as provided in Section 4.2 of Development Agreement No. 5 (or such lesser amount as determined by the Court). All other provisions of this Memorandum or any subsequent agreements relating to the Project shall remain valid and enforceable notwithstanding said ruling of invalidity. 3.4 Third Party Litigation Concerning Agreement. Owner shall defend, at its expense, including attorneys' fees, indemnify, and hold harmless City, its agents, officers and employees from any claim, action or proceeding against City, its agents, officers, or employees to attack, set aside, void, or annul the approval of this Memorandum or the approval of any permit granted pursuant to this Memorandum bwught by a third party other than the County. City shall promptly notify Owner of any such claim, action, or proceeding, and City shall cooperate in the defense. If City fails to promptly notify Owner of any such claim, action, or proceeding or if City fails to cooperate in the defense, Owner shall not thereaft~ be responsible to defend, indemnify, or hold harmless City. City may in its discretion participate in the defense of any such claim, action, or proceeding. 3.5 T~zmination of Memorandum of Understanding. If the Draft Agreement is approved by the City Council, thLs Memorandum shall terminate upon the effective date of the Draft Agreement. If the DraI't Agreement is disapproved by the City Council, then the obligations of Owner under this Memorandum shall terminate and Owner thereafter shall be subject to the terms of Development Agreement No. 5.

In addition to the concerns, Council desired to have copies of the previously approved Development Agreements for Roripaugh Hills and Kemper (Paloma del Sol). Staff has attached copies of both agreements for Council review. As to the matters of indemnity and litigation, because of the short lead time to prepare the staff report for the meeting of January 10, staff will provide an oral report on these items at the meeting.

Relationship of P~rdes. It is understood tim the contractual relationskip between City and Owner is such that the Owner is an independent contractor and not the agent of City. 9, Changes in Project. No change, modification, revision or aimration of Existing Development Approvals may be made without the prior approval by those agencies of the City equivalent to the County agencies that appwved the Existing Development Approvals in the fh-'st instance (if the County had granted the appwvals) or by the same City agency that granted the Existing Development Approvals, (if the City granted the appwvai in connection with the adoption of this Agreement). 10. TiminR of Development. The parties acknowledge that Owner cannot at this time predict when, or the ram at which the Property will be developed. Such decisions depend upon numerous factors-which are not within the controb~of Owner, such as rn~rket orientation and demand, interest ram, absorption, completion and other similar factors. Since the California Supreme Court held L'~ Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo, 37 Cal. 3d 465 (1984), that the failure of the parties therm to pwvide for the timing of development result~ in a ht~ adopted initiative restricting the timing of development to prevail over such parties, it is the parties, intent to core that deficiency by acknowledging and pwviding that the Owner shall have the right to develop the Property in such order and at such rate and at such times as the Owner deems appropriate within the exercise of its subjective business judgment, subject only to any timing or phasing requirements set forth in the Development Plan. 11.

TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: CITY OF TEMECULA AGENDA REPORT City Manager/City Council Gary Thornhill, Planning Director December 13, 1994 Memorandum of Understanding Concerning Specific Plan #199, Costain Homes RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve the Memorandum of Understanding concerning Specific Plan No. 199 for Cosrain Homes, authorizing the payment of development fees at a specified level and directing the Mayor to execute the Agreement on behalf of the City and the City Clerk to attest thereto. BACKGROUND: The attached Memorandum of Understanding will authorize Costain Homes to pull building permits and occupancy permits for homes in their development, without payment of the Public Facilities Fees until such time as the first production home obtains its Certificate of Occupancy. This provision is consistent with previous approvals granted to similar projects in the City. The City is currently negotiating a new Development Agreement between the City and Cosrain for this project. Approval of this Agreement will not mandate that the City Council approve the draft Development Agreement. In the event the City Council denies the draft Development Agreement, the Memorandum of Understanding provides that Costain will then pay the Public Facilities Fees as provided in the existing Development Agreement No. 5. This Memorandum of Understanding will allow the development of homes in the Cosrain project to move forward in an expeditious fashion. Cosrain is agreeing to pay an Interim Public Facility Fee in the amount of $3,200.00 per unit. As construction and substantial work on the homes has already begun, there should be relatively little delay in the City°s receipt of the Interim Public Facilities Fee. The indemnity provisions of this Memorandum of Understanding are slightly different than the executed Memorandum of Understanding between the City and Coscan for the Roripaugh 13roject. How~'~er, the existing development agreement (Riverside County Develol~ment Agreement No. 5) contains very broad indemnity language sufficient to protect the City's interests. This Memorandum of Understanding contains adequate language protecting the City against any challenges to the fee issue. The Planning Commission and City Council will be presented in the near future with the draft Develol~ment Agreement, The terms of the draft Development Agreement wilt be subject to extensive negotiations between the City and the develoDer. FISCAL IMPACT: Slight delay in initial receipt of Interim Public Facilities Fees as they are delayed until the first Certificate of Occul~ancy for the production units, but would be paid in the ~vent the City Council denies the draft Development Agreement within thirty days of the City's demand. ATTACHMENTS: Memorandum of Understanding. MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING CONCERNING PLANNING ARE~_ NO. __ .OF SPECIFIC PLAN NO, 199 'prig MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING, (the "Memorandum") is made and entered into as of , 1994 by and between the City of Temccula (the "City") and Cosmln Homes, Inc., a Delaware corpontion ("Owner"). RECITALS A. The City Council of the City of Temecula is r~iewing and considering, as provided by law, an Amendment and R~mt~ment of Development Agreement between City and Owner, (the 'Draft Agreement"). B. Owner is developing a x~idential project in whal is Iraown as Planning Area No. of Specific Plan No. 199, Tract No. 22916 and 22916-3 (the "Project'). The Project is curr~tly subject to Development AgEen',ent No. 5 between the County of Riverside (the "County") and ]e~i~e~ Development Company, a c'~lifomia corporation; Homes, a California corpox'ation; Margafita VillaEe Development Company, a California joint ventul~ comprised of Buie-!~nnehn California, Ltd., a c'~llfornh ILmited parme1',~Mp and Nevada-R~ncho California, Ltd., a r'~llfomia limit~i pannership; and Tayco, a California general partnership comprised of Taylor Woodrow Homes, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and others (the "Development Agr~ment No. 5"), which requix~ Owner to pay development fees (the 'Development C. Riverside County Ordinance No. 659, as adopted by the City, establishes public facilities and servi_,3~__ impact fees for x~sidential development with City ("RSA Fees"). City requires these revenues to mitigaxe the impact of development. City requires RSA Fees from development of the Project in order to complete capital F, ujec~ to mitigate the impact of the development. D. As the x~sult of meetings between ~tatives of the City and representatives of the Owner, the City has agr~d that the Project would be eligible for a Development Fee reduction due to: (i) tile ext~edve level at which the County o~gln~lly calculated the Development Fee; Ci) the high ~ of ~,,-~rn,.nt di~hL't tax existing on the Project; and Cfii) the entry level natu~ of the homes to be built in the Project. E. The Development Agreement No. 5 provided for public facilities and servic~ impact f~*, ("County Impact F~'e) higher than the RSA Fces. Thc~c higher particularly during the present rece-~ion, unduly discourage and delay development and thereby prevent City from ever n~celving the RSA Fees. Consequently, the City desires to reduce the County Impact F~es for x'r. Mdential detelopment in the Project to a level companbl~ to the RSA Fees. F. The Dr'aft A~Teemen~ provides for Owner to pay the sum of Thr~- Thousand, Two-Hundred Dollan ($3,200.00) for each residen6al uni~ as the Intm'im l~ublic Fafakies Fee. The Draft A.~re~ment provides for the cdllection of any lmt~-im Public Facilities Fee to be deferred until such time as Owner obtained a c~rfificate of occupancy for the lust production home built in the Project. O. Owner contemphtes commencing construction of the homes for the l~rojeet (68 units) prior to acccptanc~ by the City Council of City of the Draft Agreement. H. City daix-.s, as an accommodation to Owner, to permit Owner to pay the Interim Public Facilities Fee contemplated in the Draft Ag'r~=ment for all the homes in the Project, despite the ~ that the Draft Alls~ernemt providm'g for payment of the Interim Public Facilities Fee has not yet been approved by City. NOW TI:ri~v-I~]RE, in consideration of the mutual covehahn hereinafi~ contained, City and Owner agree as follows: 1. In lieu of any fee required by Development AEr~ment No. 5, P~A Fee or City Public Facilities Fee, Owner shall pay an Intorim Public Facilities F~" in the mount of Three-Thousand, Two-Hundred Dollar~ ($3,200.00) per dwellln~ unit If City fails to approve or adopt the Draft Agreement or if the Interim Public Facilities Fee, as established by City, is some number other than ~Thoumd, Two-Hundred Don~?~ ($3,200.00) per dwelling unit, then the fee paid by Owner to City shall be adjusted accordingly. Owner shall '- pay any incr=ase or City shall pay to Owner any decr~se within thirty (30) days from the ! effective clam of City Council's action on the Amendment and P, esmr=ment of Development Agreement. 2. The Inn Public Facilities Fee for all units shall be deferred until such time as a certificate of occupancy has been obtained for the first production home built in the Project. There2f-,er, the Interim Public Facilities Fee shall be paid at the time of issuance of buildin~ perrnits for each residential unit conslzucted in the Project. 3.

Planning Director Gary Thornhill reported this agreement covers 68 homes and indicated this type of agreement has been negotiated in past agreements and represents a shared responsibility for legal fees. Councilmember Lindemans asked how many vested units exist in the City where this type agreement was used. Mr. Thornhill responded approximately 10,000 units are vested in the City at this time. Councilmember Parks stated the Memorandum of Understanding in question is a small percentage of the total number of units and a delay may hold up building permits. Councilmember Mu~oz asked if building permits could be issued, based on an agreement with the developer that the terms of the MOU, if and when approved, would establish the fees. It was moved by Councilmember Parks to approve staff recommendation, The motion failed for lack of a second. Sanford Edward, representing Costain, stated that this MOU represents a small number of lots and Costain could not afford to bear the entire legal responsibility. City Manager Bradley suggested allowing staff time to research the Kemper agreement and do an analysis. R:~ende1122094 7 Mayor Pro Tern Stone suggested allowing building permits to be pulled at the $5,000 fee, to be reimbursed when agreement is reached. Sanford Edwards representing Contain, asked that Contain pay $3,200 and pay additional fees at a later time if necessary. It was moved by Mayor Pro Tem Stone, seconded by Councilmember Mu~oz to refer this matter to staff to address Council's expressed concerns regarding the provisions for payment of legal fees. It was further directed that staff allow permits to be pulled by the developer at the $5,000 per D.U. County fee, with the understanding the City will rebate any difference to the developer, should a lower fee be negotiated, when the MOU is approved.

The motion was unanimously carried. Mayor Ron Roberrs ATTEST: June S. Greek, City Clerk COUNCIL BUSINESS 14 Memorandum of Understanding Concernina Specific Plan #199, Costain Homes Planning Director Gary Thornhill presented the staff report. City Attorney Peter Thorson reported the agreement provides that the developer will pay a pro- rata share based on units if all the affected developments are sued by the County. He explained that if only this developer is sued, he would bear full legal responsibility. Susan Lindquist, 620 Newport Center Drive, No. 400, Newport Beach, representing Costain Homes, asked if the City of Temecula is named in a suit by the County, would the City participate in defense. City Attorney Thorson answered the agreements provide that the City will not bear any legal expenses. If all effected developments are sued, they would pay their pro-rata share, however if Cosrain is sued individually, Costain would pay 100% of defense, even if City is named. Sanford Edwards, Box 2, Temecula, representing Costain Homes, stated he feels the City needs to be consistent with its agreements and asked that this development not be committed to more liability than other developments in a similar situation. Mayor Pro Tern Lindemans stated he feels the Council should meet with the Board of Supervisors to find out their intentions regarding this matter. It was moved by Councilmember Roberts, seconded by Councilmember Parks to approve staff recommendation as follows: 14.1 Approve the Memorandum of Understanding concerning Specific Plan No. 199 for Costain Homes, authorizing the payment of development fees at a specified level and directing the Mayor to execute the Agreement on behalf of the City and the City Clerk to attest thereto.

A. The City Council of the City of Temecula is reviewing and considering, as provided by law, an Amendment and Restatement of Development Agreement between City and Owner, {the "Draft Agreement"). B. Owner is developing a residential project in what is known as PIning Area No. 16 of Specific Plan No. 199, Tract No. 22916 and 22916-3 (the 'Project'). The Project is currently subject to Development Agreement No. 5 between the County of Riverside (the 'County") and Kaiser Development Company, a California cozporation; Mesa Homes, a California corporation; Margarita Vffiage Development Company, a California joint venture comprised of Buie-Rancho California, Ltd., a California limited partnership and Nevada- Rancho California, Ltd., a California limited partnership; and Tayco, a California general parmership comprised of Taylor Woodrow Homes, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and others (the 'Development Agreement No. 5'), which requires Owner to pay certain development fees (the 'Development Fee'). C. Riverside County Ordinance No. 659, as adopted by the City, establishes public facilities and services impact fees for residential development with City CRSA Fees'). City requires these revenues to mitigate the impact of development. City requires RSA Fees from development of the Project in order to complete capital projects to mitigate the impact of the development. D. As the result of meetings between representatives of the City and representatives of the Owner, the City has agreed that the Project would be eligible for a Development Fee reduction due W: (i) the excessive level at which the County originally calculated the Development Fee; (ii) the high level of assessment district tax existing on the Project; and Cfii) the entry level natore of the homes to be built in the Project. E. The Development Agreement No. 5 provided for public facilities and services impact fees (*County Impact Fees*) higher than the RSA Fees. These higher fees, particularly during the present recession, unduly discourage and delay development and thereby prevent City from ever receiving the RSA Fees. Consequently, the City desires to reduce the County Impact Fees for residential development in the Project to a level comparable to the RSA Fees. F. The Draft Agreement provides for Owner to pay the sum of Three- Thousand, Two-Hundred Dollars ($3,200.00) for each residential unit as the Interim Public Facilities Fee. The Draft Agreement provides for the collection of any Interim Public Facilities Fee to be deferred until such time as Owner obtained a certificate of occupancy for the first production home built in the Project. G. Owner contemplates commencing construction of the homes for the Project (68 units) prior to acceptance by the City Council of City of the Draft Agreement. H. City desires, as an accommodation to Owner, to pannit Owner to pay the Interim Public Facilities Fee contemplated in the Draft Agreement for all the homes in the Project, despite the fact that the Draft Agreement providing for payment of the Interim Public Facilities Fee has not yet been approved by City. NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, City and Owner agree as follows: 1. In lieu of any fee required by Development Agreement No. 5, RSA Fee or City Public Facilities Fee, Owner shall pay an Interim Public Facilities Fee in the mount of Three-Thousand, Two-Hundred Dollars ($3,200.00) per dwelling unit. If City fails to approve or adopt the Draft Agreement or if the Interim Public Facilities Fee, as established by City, is some number other than Three-Thousand, Two-Hundred Dollars ($3,200.00) per dwelling unit, then the fee paid by Owner to City shall be adjusted accordingly. Owner shall pay any increase or City shall pay to Owner any decrease within thirty (30) days from the effective date of City Council's action on the Amendment and Restatement of Development Agreement. 2. The Interim Public Facilities Fee for all units shall be deferred until such time as a certificate of occupancy has been obtained for the first production home built in the Project. Thereafter, the Interim Public Facilities Fee shall be paid at the time of issuance of building permits for each residential unit constructed in the Project. 3. Indemnity and Cost of Litigation. 3.1 County Litigation Concerning Agreement. In the event the County seeks to challenge the fight of City and Owner to enter into this Memorandum, and institutes an action, suit or proceeding to challenge this Memorandum or invalidate and/or enjoin the enforcement of this Memorandum, City and Owner agree to cooperate and participate in a joint defense in any action against the parties, their officers, agents, and employees, from and against any and all such obligations, liability, suit, claim, loss, judgment or lien, resulting from such action(s) brought by County, (but excluding actions to expunge any lis pendens) and to share the costs associated with attorneys, fees and costs that the parties may incur as the result of any such action or lawsuit to challenge City and/or Owner's legal authority to enter into this Memorandum. If the County action is against all impacted r:~gcndl.l!afi~o~aln.mou -2- developments for which the City has lowered the county fees, the Owner's defense costs herein shall be its pro rata share among all impacted landowners based on a ratio of contribution of total units owned by Owner which are subject to this Memorandum compared to the total number of units within the City in which the City has lowered the County fees. If the County action is only against owner with respect to this memorandum, and not against other impacted landowners for which the City has lowered the County fees, then Owner's defense costs shall be 100% of the attorneys fees and costs for defense of the litigation. Damages (including the difference in the amount of any Interim Public Facilities Fee and the amount of the County Development Agreement Fee paid by Owner to City pursuant to the terms of this Memorandum) shall be the responsibility of Owner. To the extent Owner has paid Interim Public Facilities Fees and/or County Development Agreement Fees to City of which it is adjudicated are lawfully the funds of County, City shall pay such sums to County and Owner shall have such Liability for the payment of the difference between such fees reduced by the amount paid by the City. City and Owner shall mutually agree on legal counsel to be retained to defend any such action(s) brought by the County as herein provided. City and Owner each reserve the right to withdraw from the defense of the County litigation in the event the County prevails at the trial level and there is an appeal. If either party withdraws after the trial and there is an appeal, the remaining party shall pay all the costs and fees associated with said appeal. 3.2 Public Facilities Fees Shortfall. In the event the County prevails in any legal action or other proceeding to challenge, set aside, or enjoin the enfor~cement of this Memorandum and a trial court determines that Owner and/or the City is liable to make up any shortfall between the amount of the Interim Public Facilities Fee or the City Public Facilities Fee, as the case may be, and the County Development Agreement Fee which would otherwise have been imposed pursuant to Development Agreement No. 5, then Owner shall be responsible for paying any such shortfail subject to City's payment to County of any amounts collected and held by City under the terms of Development Agreement No. 5. Such payment by City to County shall reduce Owner's liability to County for payment of such fees by a like amount paid by City. 3.3 County Prevails in Litigation - Severability. In the event the County prevails at the trial court level against the City or the Owner as described in Section 3.1 of this Memorandum, the mount of the Interim Public Facilities Fee or the City Public Facilities Fee, as the case may be, shall revert to the amount of the County Development Agreement Fee in effect at the time of entry of the final judgment in favor of the County (or such lesser mount as determined by the Court). In the event this Memorandum is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a trial court of competent jurisdiction, Owner shall thereafter pay the County Development Agreement Fee as pwvided in Section 4.2 of Development Agreement No. 5 (or such lesser amount as determined by the Court). All other provisions of this Memorandum or any subsequent agreements relating to the Project shall remain valid and enforceable notwithstanding said ruling of invalidity. r:~gcnds.rptXcostain.mou -3- 3.4 Third Party Litigation Concerning Agreement. Owner shall defend, at its expense, including attorneys' fees, indemnify, and hold harmless City, its agents, officers and employees from any claim, action or proceeding against City, its agents, officers, or employees to attack, set aside, void, or annul the approval of this Memorandum or the approval of any permit granted pursuant to this Memorandum brought by a third party other than the County. City shall promptly notify Owner of any such claim, action, or proceeding, and City shall cooperate in the defense. If City fails to promptly notify Owner of any such claim, action, or proceeding or if City falls to cooperate in the defense, Owner shall not thereafter be responsible to defend, indemnify, or hold harmless City. City may in its discretion participate in the defense of any such claim, action, or proceeding. 3.5 Termination of Memorandum of Understanding. If the Draft Agreement is approved by the City Council, this Memorandum shall terminate upon the effective date of the Draft Agreement. If the Draft Agreement is disapproved by the City Council, then the obligations of Owner under this Memorandum shall terminate and Owner thereafter shall be subject to the terms of Development Agreement No. 5. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties executed this Memorandum as of this 10th day of January, 1995. ATI"~T: APPROVED AS TO FOR1VI: Peter M.

Pursuant to California Government Code Sections 65864 et sen. ("Development Agreement Statutes"), Tayco, a California general partnership, and others and the County of Riverside, California ("County") entered into Development Agreement No. 5 recorded in the Official Records of Riverside County, California on November 7, 1988, as Instrument No. 325515 ("Development Agreement No. 5"). B. Development Agreement No. 5 encompasses a project formerly located within County approved Specific Plan No. 199 known as "Margarita Village", a mixed use subdivision (the "Original Project") to be developed on property which came within the municipal boundaries of City when City incorporated on December 1, 1989. This Agreement encompasses only a portion of the Original Project, located in Planning Area No. 16 and consisting of Tract Nos. 22916 and 22916-3, a residential development (the "Project"). The balance of the Original Project covered by Development Agreement No. 5 is not included within Planning Area No. 16 and is not mended or impacted by this Agreement. Owner is the successor-in-interest of Tayco with respect to the Project. C. Pursuant to the provisions of the Development Agreement Statutes, City became the successor-in-interest to the County under Development Agreement No. 5 upon incorporation of City. D. Pursuant to Section 65868 of the Development Agreement Statutes, City and Owner propose to restate and amend Development Agreement No. 5 to substitute this Agreement for the portion of Development Agreement No. 5 pertaining to the Project. E. Pursuant and subject to the Development Agreement Statutes, City's police powers and City Resolution No. 91-52, City is authorized to enter into binding agreements with persons having legal or equitable interests in real property located within City's municipal boundaries or sphere of influence thereby establishing the conditions under which such property may be developed in City.

Likewise, Owner shall bind its successors in interest to the obligations specified in this Agreement. G. The terms and conditions of this Agreement have undergone extensive review by the staff of City, the Planning Commission of City and the City Council of City and have been found to be fair, just and reasonable. H. City finds and determines that it will be in the best interests of its citizens and the public health, safety and welfare will be served by entering into this Agreement. I. All of the procedures and requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act have been met with respect to this Agreement. LWOCIX46466,7 2 J. Riverside County Ordinance No. 659, as adopted by City, establishes public facilities impact fees for residential development within City CRSA Fees"). City requires these revenues to mitigate the impact of development. City requires the RSA Fees from development of Property in order to complete capital projects to mitigate the impact of the development. K. Development Agreement No. 5 provided for public facilities and services impact fees ("County Impact Fees") higher than the RSA Fees. These higher fees, particularly during the present economic situation, unduly discourage and delay development and thereby prevent City from ever receiving the County Impact Fees or the RSA Fees. Consequently, City desires to reduce the County Impact Fees for residential development in the Project to a level comparable to the RSA Fees. L. City and Owner acknowledge that development of the Project will result in the generation of municipal revenue, public infrastructure facilities and the enhancement of the quality of life for present and future residents of City. The benefits to City and Owner contemplated by development of the Project include: (1) completion of vacant lots in the Project; (2) payment of traffic signal mitigation fees, fire mitigation fees, drainage fees, school impact fees and library fees; and (3) participation in special assessment districts to finance City and regional infrastructure improvements. M. City and Owner acknowledge that due to the present economic situation, none of these benefits to City are possible unless the Project proceeds with development. N.

Timing of Development. The parties acknowledge that Owner cannot at this time predict when, or the rate at which, the Property will be developed. Such decisions depend upon numerous factors which are not within the control of Owner, such as market orientation and demand, interest rates, absorption, completion and other similar factors. Since the California Supreme Court held in Pardee Construction Co. v. City of Camarillo, 37 Cal. 3d 465 (1984), that the failure of the parties therein to provide for the timing of development resulted in a later adopted initiative restricting the timing of development to prevail over such parties, it is the parties' intent to cure that deficiency by acknowledging and providing that Owner shall have the right to develop the Property in such order, at such rate, and at such times as Owner deems appropriate within the exercise of its subjective business judgment, subject only to any timing or phasing requirements set forth in the Development Plan. ~.woc~,~,4r,6.7 13 11. Indemnity and Cost of Litigation. 11.1 Hold Harmless. Owner agrees to and shall hold City, its officers, agents, employees and representatives harmless from liability for damage or claims for damage for personal injury including death and claims for property damage which may arise from the direct or indirect operations of Owner or those of its contractor, subcontractor, agent, employee or other person acting on its behalf which relate to the Project. Owner agrees to and shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City and its officers, agents, employees and representatives from actions for damages caused or alleged to have been caused by reason of Owner's activities in connection with the Project. This hold harmless agreement applies to all of the damages and claims for damages suffered or alleged to have been suffered by reason of the operations referred to in this paragraph, regardless of whether or not City prepared, supplied, or approved plans or specifications for the Project. 11.2 County Litigation Concerning Agreement. In the event the County seeks to challenge the right of City and Owner to enter into this Agreement or to terminate the applicable portion of Development Agreement No. 5, and institutes an action, suit or proceeding to challenge this Agreement or invalidate and/or enjoin the enforcement of this Agreement or the termination of the applicable portion of Development Agreement No. 5, City and Owner agree to cooperate and participate in a joint defense in any action against the parties, their officers, agents and employees, from and against any and all such obligations, liability, suit, claim, loss, judgment or lien, resulting from such action(s) brought by County (but excluding actions to expunge any lis pendens) and to share the costs associated with attorneys' fees and costs that the parties may incur as the result of any such action or lawsuit to challenge City and/or Owner's legal authority to enter into this Agreement and/or terminate the applicable LW0C1~46466,7 14 portion of Development Agreement No. 5. If the County action is against more than one impacted development for which City has lowered the otherwise applicable County fees, then Owner's defense costs herein shall be its pro rata share among all impacted landowners based on a ratio of contribution of the total units owned by Owner which are subject to this Agreement compared to the total number of units within City in which City has lowered the County fees included in such challenge. If the County action is only against Owner with respect to this Agreement or the termination of the applicable portion of County Development Agreement No. 5, then Owner's defense costs shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the attorneys' fees and costs for defense of the litigation. Damages (including the difference in the amount of the County Development Agreement Fee and any Interim Public Facilities Fee paid by Owner to City pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) shall be the responsibility of Owner. To the extent Owner has paid Interim Public Facilities Fees and/or County Development Agreement Fees to City of which it is adjudicated are lawfully the funds of County, City shall pay such sums to County and Owner shall have such liability for the payment of the difference between the total amount of such fees and the amount paid by Owner to City. City and Owner shall mutually agree on legal counsel to be retained to defend any such actinn(s) brought by the County as herein provided. City and Owner each reserve the right to withdraw from the defense of the County litigation in the event the County prevails at the trial level and there is an appeal. If either party withdraws after the trial and there is an appeal, the remaining party shall pay all of the costs and fees associated with said appeal. 11.3 Public Facilities Fees Shortfall. In the event the County prevails in any legal action or other proceeding to challenge, set aside, or enjoin the enforcement of this Agreement and the termination of the applicable portion of Development Agreement No. 5, and Lwocx~.7 15 a trial court determines that Owner and/or City is liable to make up any shortfall between the amount of the Interim Public Facilities Fee and the County Development Agreement Fee which would otherwise have been imposed pursuant to Development Agreement No. 5, then Owner shall be responsible for paying any such shortfall subject to City's payment to County of any amounts collected and held by City under the terms of Development Agreement No. 5. Such payment by City to County shall reduce Owner's liability to County for payment of such fees by a like amount paid by City. 11.4 County Prevails in Litigation - Severability. In the event the County prevails at the trial court level against City or Owner as described in Section 11.2 of this Agreement, the amount of the Interim Public Facilities Fee shall revert to the amount of the County Development Agreement Fee in effect at the time of entry of the final judgment in favor of the County (or such lesser amounts as determined by the Court). In the event this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a trial court of competent jurisdiction, the provisions set forth in Sections 12.2 and 12.3 of this Agreement shall no longer be enforceable and from the date of said final judgment or ruling of invalidity, Owner shall thereafter pay the County Development Agreement Fee as provided in Section 4.2 of Development Agreement No. 5 (or such lesser amounts as determined by the Court). All other provisions of this Agreement shall remain valid and enforceable notwithstanding said ruling of invalidity. 11.5 Third Party Litigation Concerning A~,reement. Owner shall indemnify, protect, defend, at its expense, including attorneys' fees, and hold harmless City, its agents, officers and employees from any claim, action or proceeding against City, its agents, officers, or employees to attack, set aside, void, or annul the approval of this Agreement or the approval of any permit granted pursuant to this Agreement brought by a third party other than the County. t.woc~,4~.7 16 City shall promptly notify Owner of any such claim, action, or proceeding, and City shall cooperate in the defense. If City fails to promptly notify Owner of any such claim, action, or proceeding or if City fails to cooperate in the defense, Owner shall not thereafter be responsible to defend, protect, indemnify, or hold harmless City. City may in its discretion participate in the defense of any such claim, action, or proceeding. 11.6 Environmental Assurances. Owner shall indemnify, defend with counsel approved by City, protect, and hold harmless City, its officers, employees, agents, assigns, and any successor or successors m City's interest from and against all claims, actual damages (including but not limited to special and consequential damages), natural resources damage, punitive damages, injuries, costs, response remedialion and removal costs, losses, demands, debts, liens, liabilities, causes of action, suits, legal or administrative proceedings, interest, fines, charges, penalties and expenses (including but not limited m attorneys' and expert wimess fees and costs incurred in connection with defending against any of the foregoing or in enforcing this indemnity) of any kind whatsoever paid, incurred, or suffered by, or asserted against, City or its officers, employees or agents arising from or attributable to any repair, cleanup, or detoxification, or preparation and implementation of any removal, remedial, response, closure, or other plan (regardless of whether undertaken due to governmental action) concerning any Hazardous Substance or hazardous wastes at any place within the Property which is the subject of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any Hazardous Substance or hazardous waste which becomes located on any portion of the Property after Owner has conveyed such portion of the Property to a governmental or quasi-governmental entity or to a purchaser of a legal lot improved with a house. The foregoing indemnity is intended to operate as an agreement pursuant to Section Lwocx~64~.7 17 107(e) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, "CERCLA", 42 U.S.C. Section 9607(e) and California Health and Safety Code Section 25364, and their successor statues, to insure, protect, hold hamless, and indemnify City from liability. 12. Public Benefits. Public Improvements and Facilities. 12.1 Intent. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement confers private benefits on Owner which should be balanced by commensurate public benefits. Accordingly, the parties intend to provide consideration to the public to balance the private benefits conferred on Owner by providing more fully for the satisfaction of the public needs resulting from development of the Project. 12.2 Public Facilities Fees (Residential). (a) In lieu of the County Development Agreement Fee, any other fee required by Development Agreement No. 5, the RSA Fee or City Public Facility Fee (or any fee which replaces, supplements or is for the same general purpose as any of the foregoing), for a period of five (5) years commencing on the Effective Date, Owner shall pay an Interim Public Facilities Fee of Three Thousand Two Hundred Dollars ($3,200.00) per dwelling unit. The Interim Public Facilities Fee shall be paid as provided in Section 12.3 below. At the conclusion of the five (5) year period, Owner shall either continue to pay the Interim Public Facilities Fee of Three Thousand Two Hundred Dollars ($3,200.00) per dwelling unit or such other public facilities fee as City has then enacted and applied to residential development projects in City. Owner expressly acknowledges the existence and holding in the case of Kaufman and Broad Central Valley. Inc. v. City of Modesto, (1994), 25 Cal. App.4th 1577, as it applies to later adopted fees. Owner hereby waives for itself, and for any successor thereto, the right to challenge, pursuant to this Agreement, the validity or amount of any such other public facilities ~.woc~,~w~.7 18 fees which are enacted and applied to residential development projects in City; provided that such waiver only applies to the Project after the first five (5) years of this Agreement. Owner acknowledges and agrees that City would not have entered into this Agreement if its application or operation would limit in any way City's ability to develop and apply a Comprehensive Public Facilities Fee Program to this Project following the first five (5) years of the term of this Agreement. Finally, Owner agrees that the institution of any legal action by Owner, or any successor thereof, relying on this Agreement to challenge the validity, amount, or application of any public facilities fee after the f~st five (5) years of this Agreement, including paying such fees "under protest" pursuant to Government Code Sections 66020 et seq., shall constitute a material breach and default under this Agreement entitling City to summary termination thereof. (b) Owner shall also pay all other customary and typical development exactions, for a Project of this size and nature, in existence as of the Effective Date and throughout the term of this Agreement, including but not limited to, Traffic Signal Mitigation Fees, fire mitigation fees, drainage fees, school impact fees and library fees pursuant to the provisions of City ordinances and resolutions in existence when paid. 12.3 Timing. Collection of any and all Interim Public Facilities Fees required to be paid by Owner pursuant to this Agreement shall be deferred until such time as a certificate of occupancy has been obtained for the first production home built on the Property. Thereafter, the Interim Public Facilities Fees shall be paid at the time of issuance of building permits for each residential unit constructed on the Property. 12.4 Public Works. If Owner is required by this Agreement, or any other obligation, to construct any public works facilities which will be dedicated to City or any other public agency upon completion, and if required by applicable laws to do so, Owner shall ~woc~,~t~.v 19 perform such work in the same manner and subject to the same requirements as would be applicable to City or such other public agency should it have undertaken such construction. 13. Reservations of Authority. 13.1 Limitations. Reservations. and Exceptions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreemere, the following Subsequent Land Use Regulations shall apply to the development of the Property: (a) Processing fees and charges imposed by City to cover the estimated actual costs to City of processing applications for Subsequent Development Approvals. (b) Procedural regulations relating to hearing bodies, petitions, applications, notices, findings, records, hearings, reports, recommendations, appeals, and any other matter of procedure. (c) Regulations imposing Development Exactions; provided, however, that no such subsequently adopted Development Exactions shall be applicable to development of the Property unless such Development Exactions are applied uniformly to development throughout City. No such subsequently adopted Development Exaction would apply if its application to the Property would physically prevent development of the Property for the uses and to the density or intensity of development set forth in the Development Plan. If any such subsequently adopted Development Exaction fulfills the same purposes, in whole or in part, as the fees paid by Owner pursuant to this Agreement, City shall allow a credit against such subsequently adopted Development Exaction for such fees paid to the extent such fees fulfill the same purpose. ~,woc~x4e,4~.7 20 (d) Regulations governing construction standards and specifications including without limitation, City's Building Code, Plumbing Code, Mechanical Code, Electrical Code and Fire Code. (e) Regulations which are not in conflict with the Development Plan. Any regulation, whether adopted by initiative or otherwise, limiting the rate or timing of development of the Property shall be deemed to conflict with the Development Plan and shall therefore not be applicable to the development of the Property. (f) Regulations which are in conflict with the Development Plan provided Owner has given written consent to the application of such regulations to development of the Property. 13.2 Subseauent Development Approvals. This Agreement shall not prevent City, in acting on Subsequent Development Approvals, from applying the Subsequent Land Use Regulations which do not conflict with the Development Plan, nor shall this Agreement prevent City from denying or conditionally approving any Subsequent Development Approval on the basis of the Existing or Subsequent Land Use Regulations not in conflict with the Development Plan. 13.3 Modification or Suspension bv State or Federal Law. In the event that State or Federal laws or regulations enacted after the Effective Date of this Agreement prevent or preclude compliance with one or more of the provisions of this Agreement, such provisions of this Agreement shall be modified or suspended as may be necessary to comply with such State or Federal laws or regulations, provided, however, that this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect to the extent it is not inconsistent with such laws or regulations and to the extent such laws or regulations do not render such remaining provisions impractical to enforce. 13.4 Regulation by Other Public Agencies. It is acknowledged by the parties that other public agencies not within the control of City possess authority to regulate aspects of the development of the Property separately from or jointly with City and this Agreement does not limit the authority of such other public agencies. 13.5 Tentative Tract Map Extension. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 66452.6 of the Government Code, the tentative subdivision map(s) or tentative parcel map(s) (vested or regular) approved as part of implementing the Development Plan shall be extended to expire at the end of the term of this Agreement. 13.6 Vestinlz Tentative Maps. If any tentative or final subdivision map, or tentative or final parcel map, heretofore or hereafter approved in connection with development of the Property, is a vesting map under the Subdivision Map Act (Government Code Sections 66410, et seq). and Riverside County Ordinance No. 460, as the same was incorporated by reference into the Temecula Municipal Code by Ordinance No. 90-04, and if this Agreement is determined by a final judgment to be invalid or unenforceable insofar as it grants a vested right to develop to Owner, then and to that extent the fights, obligations, and protections afforded Owner and City respectively, under the laws and ordinances applicable to vesting maps shall supersede the provisions of this Agreement. Except as set forth immediately above, development of the Property shall occur only as provided in this Agreement, and the provisions in this Agreement shall be controlling over conflicting provisions of law or ordinances concerning vesting maps. Lwoc~x~64~.7 22 13.7 Intent. The parties acknowledge and agree that City is restricted in its authority to limit its police power by coreract and that the foregoing limitations, reservations and exceptions are intended to reserve to City all of its police power which cannot be so limited. This Agreement shall be construed, contrary to its stated terms if necessary, to reserve to City all such power and authority which cannot be restricted by contact. 14. Development of the Proveny. Vesting. Termination of Development Agreement No. 5. 14.1 Rights to Develop. Subject to terms of this Agreement, including payment of the Interim Public Facilities Fee, Owner shall have a vested right to develop the Property in accordance with, and to the extent of, the Development Plan. The Project shall remain subject to all Subsequent Development Approvals required to complete the Project as contemplated by the Development Plan. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the permitted uses of the Property, the density and intensity of use. the maximum height and size of proposed buildings, and provisions for reservation and dedication of land for public purposes shall be those set forth in the Development Plan. In exchange for the vested right to develop pursuant to this Agreement, Owner expressly waives for itself and for any successor thereto, the right to challenge or contest the validity of any condition of approval attached to any entitlement which is a part of/he Development Plan. 14.2 Effect of Agreement on Land Use Regulations. Except as otherwise provided under the terms of this Agreement, including the payment of the Interim Public Facilities Fee, the rules, regulations, and official policies governing permitted uses of the Property, the density and intensity of use of the Property, the maximum height and size of proposed buildings, and the design, improvement and construction standards and specifications x.woci,As~.7 23 applicable to development of the Property shall be the Existing Land Use Regulations. City shall exercise its lawful reasonable discretion in connection with Subsequent Development Approvals in accordance with the Development Plan, and as provided by this Agreement including, but not limited to, payment of the Interim Public Facilities Fee. City shall accept for processing, review, and action all applications for Subsequent Development Approvals, and such applications shall be processed in the normal manner for processing such matters. City may, at the request of Owner, contract for planning and engineering consultant services to expedite the review and processing of Subsequent Development Approvals, the cost of which shall be borne by Owner. 14.3 Changes and Amendments. The parties acknowledge that refinement and further development of the Project will require Subsequent Development Approvals and may demonstrate that changes are appropriate and mutually desirable in the Existing Development Approvals. In the event Owner finds that a change in the Existing Development Approvals is necessary or appropriate, Owner shall apply for a Subsequent Development Approval to effectuate such change. If approved, any such change in the Existing Development Approvals shall be incorporated herein as an addendure to this Agreement and may be funher changed from time to time as provided in this Section. Owner, shall, within thirty (30) days of written demand by City, reimburse City for any and all reasonable costs associated with any amendment or change to this Agreement that is initiated by Owner or Owner's successor without regard to the outcome of the request for amendment or change to this Agreement. Unless otherwise required by law, as determined in City's reasonable discretion, a change to the Existing Development Approvals shall be deemed "minor" and not require an amendment to this Agreement provided such change does not: ~,woc~x46466.7 24 (a) Alter the permitted uses of the Property as a whole. except as permitted in Section 9 hereof; or, (b) Increase the density or intensity of use of the Property as a whole; or, (c) Increase the maximum height and size of permitted buildings; or, (d) Delete a requirement for the reservation or dedication of land for public purposes within the Property as a whole; or, (e) Constitute a project requiring a subsequent or a supplemental Environmental Impact Report pursuant to Section 21166 of the Public Resources Code. 14.4 Termination of Development Agreemere No. 5.

It is acknowledged that nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as requiring City or the City Council to form such a district or to issue or sell bonds. 17. Amendment or Cancellation of Agreement. This Agreement may be amended or canceled in whole or in pan only by mutual consent of the parties and in the manner provided for in Government Code Sections 65868, 65867 and 65867.5. If an Amendment is requested by Owner or its successor, Owner or its successor agrees to pay City any Development Agreement Amendment fee then in existence as established by City Council Resolution, or if no such fee is established, to reimburse City for the actual and reasonably necessary costs of reviewing and processing said Amendment within thirty (30) days of written demand from City without regard to City's action on such amendment. 18. Enfomement. Unless amended or canceled as herein provided, this Agreement is enforceable by any party to it notwithstanding a change in the applicable general or specific plan, zoning, subdivision, or building regulations adopted by City which alter or amend the rules, regulations, or policies governing permitted uses of the land, density, design, improvement, and construction standards and specifications. 19. Events of Default. Owner is in default under this Agreement upon the happening of one or more of the following events or conditions: (a) If a warranty, representation or statement made or furnished by Owner to City in this Agreement is false or proves to have been false in any material respect when it was made; ~,woc~x464~6.7 26 (b) More than thirty (30) days have passed since City's making of a written request to Owner for payment or reimbursement for a fee or service authorized or agreed to pursuant to this Agreement, with Owner not having made such payment; (c) A finding and determination by City at a hearing at which Owner is provided an opportunity to present oral and written testimony that upon the basis of substantial evidence Owner has not complied in good faith with one or more of the terms or conditions of this Agreement; provided, however, where the default may be cured, Owner shall be given at least thirty (30) days or such additional time as the City Council determines to be reasonable to cure such default. If the actions required to cure such default will reasonably take more than thirty (30) days to cure, then the City Council shall give Owner such additional time as is reasonably necessary to effect a cure, provided that Owner is making reasonable progress towards completing such cure. Such progress on effectuating such cure shall be reviewed by the City Council every thirty (30) days thereafter until any and all defaults are cured. If at any such review, the City Council determines that the Owner is not making good faith efforts to cure any and all defaults, the City Council shall have the authority to terminate this Agreement. If at the end of such cure period, Owner fails to cure any and all defaults, then the City Council may terminate this Agreement, extend the cure period if Owner is making good faith efforts to cure any and all defaults, or with the concurrence of Owner, modify this Agreement. 20. Procedure Upon Default. (a) Upon the occurrence of an event of default, City may terminate or modify this Agreement in accordance with the procedure adopted by City.

In general, each of the parties hereto may pursue any remedy at law or equity available for the breach of any provision of this Agreement, except that City, and its officers, employees and agents, shall not be liable in damages to Owner or to any assignee or transferee of Owner, or any other person, and Owner covenants not to sue for or claim any damages for breach of this Agreement by City. 22. Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge that money damages and remedies at law generally are inadequate and specific performance and other non-monetary relief are particularly appropriate remedies for the enforcement of this Agreement and should be available to all parties for the following reasons: (a) Money damages are unavailable against City as provided in Section 21 above. LWOC1~66.7 28 (b) Due to the size, nature and scope of the Project, it may not be practical or possible to restore the Property to its natural condition once implementation of this Agreement has begun. After such implementation, Owner may be foreclosed from other choices it may have had to utilize the Property or portions thereof. Owner has invested significant time and resources and performed extensive planning and processing of the Project in agreeing to the terms of this Agreement and will be investing even more significant time and resources in implementing the Project in reliance upon the terms of this Agreement, and it is not possible to determine the sum of money which would adequately compensate Owner for such efforts. 23.

APPLICATION INFORMATION APPLICANT: Layton-Belling & Associates REPRESENTATIVE: Ssme PROPOSAL: A Variance from Ordinance No. 348 to allow three (3) seven foot high on-site directional signs and one (1) five foot high monument sign on Ynez Road LOCATION: Tower Plaza (west side of Ynez Road, north of Rancho California Road) EXISTING ZONING: CC (Community Commercial) SURROUNDING ZONING: North: South: East: We st: CC (Community Commercial) HTC (Highway Tourist Commercial)/PO Professional Office) CC (Community Commercial) OS (Open Space) PROPOSED ZONING: Not requested GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION: CC (Community Commercial) EXISTING LAND USE: Shopping Center R:\STAFFRPT\92PA96.PC 6112196 klb 1 SURROUNDING LAND USES: North: South: East: West: Vacant Embassy Suites Hotel Interstate 15 Temecula Town Center Shopping Center PROJECT STATISTICS Directional Signs Height: Seven (7) feet Area: Twenty-eight (28) square feet Monument Sign Height: Five (5) feet Area: Twenty-five (25) square feet BACKGROUND The application was submitted to the Planning Department on May 28, 1996. Staff has met with the applicant on several occasions to discuss the Tower Plaza project and the associated signage. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project is a proposal for a variance from Section 19.4.c. of Ordinance No. 348 for the maximum height and maximum surface area for directional signs and from Section 19.4.a.4 for the overall number of free-standing signs permitted for a shopping center. Both requests have been filed with one application. ANALYSIS Directional Signs The applicant is proposing three (3) seven (7) foot high directional signs to be located within the parking area for Tower Plaza (reference Attachment No. 3.E.), The proposed directional signage area is approximately nine (9) square feet. Currently, several directional signs exist on the site. These are slated for removal to be replaced with the proposed directional signs. There is no limit to the number of directional signs under Ordinance No. 348. The maximum height permitted is three (3) feet and the maximum area permitted is six (6) square feet. The proposal exceeds both the height and area permitted. Tower Plaza is a multi-tenant development and it is necessary to increase the size of the directional signs to allow identification for the tenants. Free-standing Sign The applicant is also proposing an additional free-standing sign for Tower Plaza along Ynez Road (reference Attachment No. 3.F.). Under Ordinance No. 348, a shopping center is permitted one (1) freestanding sign per street frontage. Two (2) free-standing signs currently exist along Ynez Road and will be replaced with two new signs (reference Attachment No. 3.G.). This will allow adequate identification for the major tenants within the center. It is R:\STAFFRPTX92PA96.PC 6/12/96 klb 2 common/typical for the major tenants t,o have identification at the street and smaller tenants not to have the same identification opportunities. EXISTING ZONING AND GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION The current zoning for the site is Community Commercial. This zoning is consistent with the General Plan designation of Community Commercial. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION Pursuant to Section 15311 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, the project is a Class 11 Categorical Exemption from CEQA, Class 11 consists of the construction, or placement of minor structures accessory to (appurtenant to ) existing commercial, industrial, or institutional facilities, including but not limited to on-premise signs. SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS The project is a proposal for a variance from Section 19.4.c. for the maximum height and maximum surface area for directional signs and a variance from Section 19.4.a.4 of Ordinance No. 348 for the overall number of free-standing signs permitted for a shopping center. Staff supports the variance for the directional signs; however, Staff does not support the request for an additional monument sign on Ynez Road. FINDINGS Directional Signs There are unnecessary hardships created by strict application of the Code due to physical circumstances and characteristics of the property that are not shared by other properties in the zone. Under the current regulations, the maximum height for a directional sign is three (3) feet. The maximum area for a directional sign is six (6) square feet. Unlike other commercial properties in the zone with a single tenant, Tower Plaza is a multi-tenant development and therefore requires an increase in the size of the directional signs to allow sufficient identification for the tenants. The circumstances and characteristics for the variance were not created by the applicant. The applicant has recently acquired the property and has "inherited" the current situation. The shopping center was built several decades ago and marketing trends have changed over the years. The Variance does not grant special privileges which are not otherwise available to surrounding properties and will not be detrimental to the public welfare or to the property of other persons located in the vicinity. The placement of three directional signs will enhance circulation throughout the site. This will create a safer situation for motorists and pedestrians. Under similar circumstances, Staff would be willing to support similar requests from similar types of development in order to facilitate circulation and public safety. R:\STAFFRPT\92PA96.PC 6/I2/96 klb 3 The Variance places suitable conditions on the property to protect surrounding properties. Conditions of approval have been placed on the I~roject to insure that the public health, safety and welfare are maintained. The project will not have an impact on surrounding properties. The Variance does not permit uses which are not otherwise allowed in the zone. Signs are a permitted use in the Community Commercial zone. Freestanding Sign There are no unnecessary hardships created by strict application of the Code due to physical circumstances and characteristics of the property that are not shared by other properties in the zone. Two free-standing signs currently exist along Ynez Road and will be replaced with two new signs. This will allow adequate identification for the major tenants within the center. It is common/typical in the case of multi-tenant properties for the major tenants to have identification at the street and smaller tenants not to have the same identification opportunities. In addition, two (2) freeway oriented signs currently exist on site. The circumstances and characteristics for the variance were not created by the applicant, The applicant has recently acquired the property and has 'inherited" the current situation. The shopping center was built several decades ago and marketing trends have changed over the years; however, two free-standing signs currently exist along Ynez Road and will be replaced with two new signs. This will allow adequate identification for the major tenants within the center. It is common/typical in the case of multi-tenant properties for the major tenants to have identification at the street and smaller tenants not to have the same identification opportunities. The Variance would grant special privileges which are not otherwise available to surrounding properties and will be detrimental to the public welfare or to the property of other persons located in the vicinity. To allow additional signage on Ynez Road would establish a precedent that would open up opportunities for similar requests. This would provide opportunities for additional signage in excess of the maximum regulations established to protect the public health, safety and welfare in terms of aesthetics.

R:\STAFFRPT\75PA96.PC 6/ll/96klb 26 DISCUSSION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS Land Use and Planning 1.b. The project will not conflict with applicable environmental plans or polices adopted by agencies with jurisdiction over the project. The project is consistent with the City's General Plan Land Use Designation of BP (Business Park). Impacts from all General Plan Land Use Designations were analyzed in the Environmental Impact Report for (EIR) the General Plan. Agencies with jurisdiction within the City commented on the scope of the analysis contained in the EIR and how the land uses would impact their particular agency, Mitigation measures approved with the EIR will be applied to this project. Further, all agencies with jurisdiction over the project are also being given the opportunity to comment on the project and it is anticipated that they will make the appropriate comments as to how the project relates to their specific environmental plans or polices. The project site has been previously graded and services have been extended into the area. There will be limited, if any environmental effects on environmental plans or polices adopted by agencies with jurisdiction over the project. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project. The project will not disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of an established community (including low-income or minority community). The project is an industrial/office/warehouse use in an area surrounded by land that is currently planned to be developed with similar uses. There is no established residential community (including low-income or minority community) at this site. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project. Population and Housing The project will not cumulatively exceed official regional or local population projections. The project is an industrial/office/warehouse use which is consistent with the City's General Plan Land Use Designation of Business Park. Since the project is consistent with the City's General Plan, and does not exceed the floor area ratio for Business Park, it will not be a significant contributor to population growth which will cumulatively exceed official regional or local population projections. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project. 2.b. The project will not induce substantial growth in the area either directly or indirectly. The project is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Designation of Business Park. The project will cause people to relocate to or within Temecula; however, due to its limited scale, it will not induce substantial growth in the area. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project. The project will not displace housing, especially affordable housing. The project site is vacant; therefore no housing will be displaced. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project. R:\STAFFI~PT\75PA96.PC 6/11/96 kll~ 27 Geoloaic Problems 3.b, c,g,h. The project will have a less than significant impact on people involving seismic ground shaking; however, there may be a potentially significant impact from seismic ground failure, liquefaction, subsidence and expansive soils. The project is located in Southern California, an area which is seismically active. Any potentially significant impacts will be mitigated through building construction which is consistent with Uniform Building Code standards. Further, preliminary soil reports have been submitted and reviewed as part of the application submittal and recommendations contained in this report will be used to determine appropriate conditions of approval. The soils reports will also contain recommendations for the compaction of the soil which will serve to mitigate any potentially significant impacts from seismic ground shaking, seismic ground failure, liquefaction, subsidence and expansive soils. After mitigation measures are performed, no significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project. 3.d. The project will not expose people to a seiche, tsunami or volcanic hazard. The project is not located in an area where any of these hazards could occur. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project. The project will not expose people to landslides or mudflows. The Final Environmental Impact for the City of Temecula General Plan has not identified any known landslides or mudslides located on the site or proximate to the site. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 3.f. The project will have a less than significant impact from erosion, changes in topography, grading or fill. The site has been previously graded and the project does not propose significant grading beyond that which has already occurred. Increased wind and water erosion of soils both on and off-site may occur during the construction phase of the project and the project may result in changes in siltation, deposition or erosion. Erosion control techniques will be included as a condition of approval for the project. In the long-run, hardscape and landscaping will serve as permanent erosion control for the project. Since the amount of grading will be the minimum necessary for the realization of the project, modification to topography and ground surface relief features will not be considered significant. Potential unstable soil conditions from excavation, grading or fill will be mitigated through the use of landscaping and proper compaction of the soils. After mitigation measures are performed, no impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 3.i. The project will not impact unique geologic or physical features. No unique geologic features or physical features exist on the site. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. Water 4,8. The project will result in changes to absorption rates, drainage patterns and the rate and amount of surface runoff; however, these changes are considered less than significant. Previously permeable ground will be rendered impervious by construction of buildings, accompanying hardscape and driveways, While absorption rates and surface runoff will change, potential impacts shall be R:\STAFFRPT~75PA96.pC 6/II/96 klb 28 mitigated through site design. Drainage conveyances will be required for the project to safely and adequately handle runoff which is created. After mitigation measures are performed, no significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. The project may have a potentially significant effect on discharges into surface waters and alteration of surface water quality. Prior to issuance of a grading permit for the project, the developer will be required to comply with the requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit from the State Water Resources Control Board. No grading shall be permitted until an NPDES Notice of Intent has been filed or the project is shown to be exempt. By complying with the NPDES requirements, any potential impacts can be mitigated to a level less than significant. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 4.d,e. The project will have a less than significant impact in a change in the amount of surface water in any waterbody or impact currents, or to the course or direction of water movements. Additional surface runoff will occur because previously permeable ground will be rendered impervious by construction of buildings, accompanying hardscape and driveways. Surface drainage will be channeled to Rio Nedo. Due to the limited scale of the project, the additional amount of drainage into the Murrieta Creek will not considered significant. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 4.f-h. The project will have a less than significant change in the quantity and quality of ground waters, either through direct additions or withdrawals, or through interception of an aquifer by cuts or excavations or through substantial loss of groundwater recharge capability. Limited changes will occur in the quantity and quality of ground waters; however, due to the minor scale of the project, it will not be considered significant. Further, construction on the site will not be at depths sufficient to have a significant impact on ground waters. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 4.i. The project will not result in a substantial reduction in the amount of groundwater water otherwise available for public water supplies. According to information contained in the Final Environmental Impact Report for the City of Temecula General Plan, "Rancho California Water District indicate that they can accommodate additional water demands." Water service currently exists in the immediate proximity to the project. Water service will need to be provided by Rancho California Water District (RCWD). This is typically provided upon completion Of financial arrangements between RCWD and the property owner. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. Air Quality 5.8. The project will not violate any air quality standard or contribute to an existing or projected air quality violation. The project (52,180 square feet of industrial/office/warehouse at buildout) is below the threshold for potentially significant air quality impact (276,000 square feet) established by South Coast Air Quality Management District (Page 6-11, Table 6-2 of the South Coast Air Quality Management CEQA Air Quality Handbook). No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. R:~STAFFRPT\75PA96.PC 6/ll/96klb 2(:) 5.b. The project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants. There are no significant pollutants in proximity to the project. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. The project will not alter air movement, moisture or temperature, or cause any change in climate. The limited scale of the project precludes it from creating any significant impacts on the environment in this area. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 5.d. The project will create objectional odors during the construction phase of the project. These impacts will be of short duration and are not considered significant. Transportation/Circulation The project will result in a less than significant increase in vehicle trips; however it will add to traffic congestion. It is anticipated that this project will contribute less than a five percent (5%) increase in existing volumes during the AM peak hour and PM peak hour time frames to the intersections of Diaz Road and Rio Nedo and Avenida Atvarado and Diaz Road.

STAFF REPORT - PLANNING CITY OF TEMECULA PLANNING COMMISSION June 17, 1996 Planning Application No. PA96-0008 (Development Plan) Prepared By: Stephen Brown, Project Planner RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Department Staff recommends the Planning Commission: 1. ADOPT the Negative Declaration for PA96-0008; 2. ADOPT the Mitigation Monitoring Program for PA96-0008; ADOPT Resolution No. 96- recommending approval of PA96-0008 based upon the Analysis and Findings contained in the Staff Report; and APPROVE Planning Application No. PA96-0008 subject to the attached Conditions of Approval. APPLICATION INFORMATION APPLICANT: Robert Tiglio, Hydro-Scape Products, Inc. REPRESENTATIVE: Russell Rumansoff, Herron + Rumansoff, Architects, Inc. PROPOSAL: Design and construction of a 9,994 square foot office/warehouse building and 28,200 square foot outdoor storage area. LOCATION: South side of Enterprise Circle North, west of Jefferson Avenue. EXISTING ZONING: Business Park (BP) [Manufacturing Service Commercial (M-SC) at the time of project submittal] SURROUNDING ZONING: North: South: East: West: Business Park (BP) Business Park (BP) and Service Commercial (SC) Highway/Tourist Commercial (HT) Business Park (BP) PROPOSED ZONING: Not requested R:~STAFFRPT\SPA96.PC2 6/12/96 slb 1 GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION: Business Park (BP) EXISTING LAND USE: Vacant SURROUNDING LAND USES: North: South: East: West: Santa Gertrudis Creek Channel and Vacant Parking Lot and Vacant Commercial Center Offices PROJECT STATISTICS Total Area: 1.75 acres Total Site Area: Building Area: 9,994 square feet Landscape Area: 13,634 square feet Paved Area: 24,998 square feet Other Paved areas: storage yard 28,200 square feet Parking Required: 13 spaces Parking Provided: 31 spaces Building Height: Twenty-eight feet (28') BACKGROUND This item was continued from the Planning Commission meeting of May 20, 1996 to allow the City Attorney time to review the issue of consistency with the Development Code. At the meeting of May 20, 1996 the issue of a complete application was raised by the attorney. His concern was that if the application had in fact been deemed incomplete, it would be inconsistent with the Development Code and therefore could not be acted upon. Subsequently, the City Attorney has reviewed the file and determined the application was complete. Therefore the application, and in particular the use, is consistent with Ordinance 348 which was in effect at the time the determination of completeness was made. Development Review Committee (DRC) meetings were held on January 25, 1996 and March 7, 1996. Planning Application No. PA96-0008 was scheduled for Directors Hearing on April 25, 1996. At that hearing, staff recommended the case be heard by the Planning Commission because there were four letters of opposition to the project. A special meeting was held with the applicant and the Community Development Director on April 29, 1996 to clarify the City's position on the appropriate level of design for the proposed building and landscaping enhancements. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project is a proposal to design and construct a 9,994 square foot office/warehouse facility. Twenty-eight percent (28%) of the project site will be landscaped. Parking will occupy the fault hazard zone constrained portion of the site. A 28,000 square foot outdoor storage area will be enclosed by an eight foot wall and fence combination to provide screening of the stored contents. The project area has been previously graded. Enterprise Circle North has been improved to its ultimate right-of-way and all utilities are at the project site. ANALYSIS Project Desion The architecture is similar to other buildings in the area and features tilt-up concrete panels, recessed reveals and windows to break up the massing. Parking for the project occupies the fault hazard set-back area established by County Geologic Report No. 457. An employee lunch area has been provided at the northern portion of the site. Loading will be at the west and north sides of the building. The applicant has addressed most of Staff's concerns regarding the building's design with the exception of the front entry statement and enhanced landscaping treatment along the street. Because of the proposed operation, the entrance has been located to the rear of the building. Staff has requested a stronger architectural feature statement be incorporated into the building's design to direct customers to the building's entry. Special design features such as additional trees and vines will be required to break up the large building mass and enhance the streetscape. Conditions of approval (#12 and #13) have been included to require these revisions. Letters of Ooposition Staff has received four letters of opposition to the Hydro-Scape proposal. The project opponents base their objection on the incompatibility with the existing bank, medical office, and Jefferson Creek retail center. Opponents fear that outdoor storage will be a nuisance and cause loss of property values. Moreover, the opponents cite traffic impacts and storage of potentially toxic chemicals as a basis for denial of the project. Staff has reviewed the project for compatibility with the surrounding area noting the architectural design of the adjacent buildings. With the conditions of approval requiring enhanced landscaping and architectural design, staff feels that the end product will conform to the level of design in the local community. Other issues raised by the opponents suggest that traffic will be an issue. The City's Public Works Department has reviewed the project for traffic impacts and had determined that the project will contribute less than five percent of traffic to Enterprise Circle North. The storage and use of toxic and hazardous chemical are permitted in the Business Park designation. Hazardous chemicals usually identified with the proposed land use consist of glues and solvents utilized in the welding of a variety of plastic pipe. These chemicals will not be used on the premisses but will be offered for sale to local contractors and home owners for use off site. Staff has concluded that the sale of these materials does not constitute a threat to the community. EXISTING ZONING AND GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION Existing zoning for the site is BP (Business Park), However, because the project was submitted prior to the implementation date of the Development Code (February 9, 1996) and new zoning designations, it was determined that the case would be processed under the land uses permitted by the M-SC zone. Ordinance No. 348 Section 11.2 relating to permitted uses in the M-SC zone specifically permits building materials sales yards and warehousing and distribution which would normally include the storage and use of toxic or hazardous materials. R:\STAFFRPT~,gPA96.PC2 6/12/96 slb 3 The General Plan Land Use designation for the site is BP (Business Park). Typical uses in this designation may include: light manufacturing, storage, industrial supply and wholesale businesses. The project as proposed is consistent with the M-SC zone and the General Plan. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION An Initial Study has been prepared for this project. The Initial Study determined that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, these effects are not considered to be significant due to mitigation measures contained in the project design and in the Conditions of Approval for the project. Any potentially significant impacts will be mitigated. SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS The project is consistent with the City's General Plan and the M-SC zone. The applicant has responded to issues and concerns raised by Staff with the exception of architectural details and landscaping that would make this project conform to the same level of design exhibited by the surrounding uses. Conditions of Approval will require the applicant to refine the architectural elevations and landscaping. FINDINGS The proposed use is in conformance with the General Plan for Temecula and with all applicable requirements of State law and other Ordinances of the City. The project is consistent with all City Ordinances including: Ordinance 348, Ordinance No. 655 (Mt. Palomar Lighting Ordinance, and Ordinance No. 94-22 (Water Efficient Landscaping). The overall development of the land is designed for the protection of the public health, safety and welfare. The project as proposed complies with all City Ordinances and meets the standards adopted by the City of Temecula designed for the protection of the public health, safety and welfare. The design of the proposed improvements are not likely to cause substantial environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. An Initial Study was prepared for the project and it has determined that although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, these effects are not considered to be significant due to mitigation measures contained in the project design and in the Conditions of Approval added to the project.

For effects that are "Less than Significant with Mitigation Incorporated," describe the mitigation measures which were incorporated or refined from the earlier document and the extent to which they address site-specific conditions for the project, SOURCE LIST 1 - City of Temecula General Plan 2 - City of Temecula General Plan Final Environmental Impact Report 3 - City of Temecula Zoning Map 4 - City of Temecula Development Code 6 - Geotechnical Investigation on the Wildomar Fault, Parcel Map 19582-2 Rancho California area, Riverside County, CA, R:~STAFFRPT~SPA96.PC2 6/I2/96 db 3 1 DISCUSSION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS Land Use and Planning The project will not disrupt or divide the physical arrangement of an established community (including low-income or minority community). The project is an in-fill Development Permit and will occupy the site which is currently Vacant. There is an established commercial and light industrial concentration at this site. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project. Population and Housing 2.b. The project will not induce substantial growth in the area either directly or indirectly. The project is in-fill development and will occupy the site which is currently vacant. While the project could conceivably cause a few people to relocate to the Temecula area, the project will not induce substantial growth in the area. No significant effects are anticipated as a result of this project. Geologic Problems 3.a.b.e. Any development of the site will expose people and property to earthquake hazards since the project is located in Southern California, an area which is seismically active. Any potential impacts will be mitigated through building construction which is consistent with Uniform Building Code standards. The project has been designed to avoid the fault hazard zone identified by County Geologic Report prepared for the underlying Parcel Map No. 19582-2. information contained in the City of Temecula General Plan Environmental Impact Report (certified November 9, 1993) states that the project will not expose people or property to geologic hazards such as landslides or mudslides. No known landslides are located on the site or proximate to the site. The same is true for mudslides. 3.c,g. The project is identified by the General Plan as an area susceptible to liquefaction and subsidence. Any potential impacts will be mitigated through mitigations recommended in the slope stability report, geotechnical studies, prepared for this site and through the requirements of the Uniform Building Code standards. 3.d. The project will not expose people to a seiche, tsunami or volcanic hazard. The project is not located in an area where any of these hazards could occur. 3.f. The project will have a less than significant impact from erosion, changes in topography, grading or fill. The site has been previously graded and will therefore require minimal grading for the project. Increased wind and water erosion of soils both on and off-site may occur during the construction phase of the project and the project may result in changes in siltation, deposition or erosion. Erosion control techniques will be included as a condition of approval for the project. In the long-run, hardscape and landscaping will serve as permanent erosion control for the project. Since the amount of grading will be the minimum necessary for the realization of the project, modification to topography and ground surface relief features will not be considered significant. Potential unstable soil conditions from excavation, grading or fill will be mitigated through the use of landscaping and proper compaction of the soils. R:\STAFFRPT\8PA96.PC2 6/12/96 slb 32 Water The project will result in changes to absorption rates, drainage patterns and the rate and amount of surface runoff. Previously permeable ground will be rendered impervious by construction of buildings, accompanying hardscape and driveways. While absorption rates and surface runoff will change, any potential impacts can be mitigated through site design. Drainage conveyances will be required for the project to safely and adequately handle the runoff which will be created. 4.b. The project is located within the limits of the lO0-year flood plan. To mitigate any potential impacts, a buildings will be required to be build above the flood elevation. The project may have a potentially significant effect on discharges into surface waters and alteration of surface water quality. Prior to issuance of a grading permit for the project, the developer will be required to comply with the requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit from the State Water Resources Control Board. No grading shall be permitted until an NPDES Notice of Intent has been filed or the project is shown to be exempt. By complying with the NPDES requirements, any potential impacts can be mitigated to a level less than significant. Therefore, no significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 4.d.e. The project will not result in a change in the amount of surface water in any waterbody, impact currents, or to the course or direction of water movements. No major waterbodies are located in the subject project area. 4.f-h. The project will not result in a change in the quantity of ground waters, either through direct additions or withdrawals, or through interception of an aquifer by cuts or excavations or through substantial loss of groundwater recharge capability. No changes will occur in the quantity of ground waters, either through direct additions, withdrawals, or through interception of an aquifer by cuts or excavations. Further, the project will not result in an altered direction or rate of flow of groundwaters or in impacts to groundwater quality. Construction on the site will not be at depths sufficient to have a significant impact on ground waters. 4.i. The project will not result in a substantial reduction in the amount of groundwater water otherwise available for public water supplies. Water service currently exists at the project site. Additional water service will need to be provided by Rancho California Water District (RCWD). This is typically provided upon completion of financial arrangements between RCWD and the property owner. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. Air Quality The project will not violate any air quality standard or contribute to an existing or project air quality violation. The limited scale of the project precludes it from creating any significant impacts on the environment in this area. 5.b. The project will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants. There are no sensitive receptors in proximity to the project. R:\STAFFRPT\SPA96.PC2 6/12/96 slb 33 5.c. The project will not alter air movement, moisture or temperature, or cause any change in climate. The limited scale of the project precludes it from creating any significant impacts on the environment in this area. 5.d. The project will create objectional odors during the construction phase of the project. These impacts will be of short duration and are not considered significant. Transportation/Circulation The project will result in a less than significant increase in vehicle trips and may add to traffic congestion. It is anticipated that the project have a less than five (5) percent increase to the nearest intersection (Enterprise Circle North and Winchester Road) during peak travel hour. The applicant will be required to pay traffic signal mitigation fees and public facility fees as conditions of approval for the project. 6.b.c. The project will not result in hazards to safety from design features. The project is in- fill within an existing industrial area. Further, the project is designed to current City standards and does not propose any hazards to safety from design features. The project will not result in hazards or barriers for pedestrians or bicyclists. A sidewalk exist on the site along Solana Way and Ynez Road. Hazards or barriers to bicyclists have not been identified as part of the project. 6.g. The project will not result in impacts to rail, waterborne or air traffic since none exists currently in the immediate proximity of the project. Energy and Mineral Resources The project will not impact and/or conflict with adopted energy conservation plans. The project will be reviewed for compliance with all applicable laws pertaining to energy conservation during the plan check stage. No permits will be issued unless the project is found to be consistent with these applicable laws. 8.b. The project will result in a less than significant impact for the use of non-renewable resources in a wasteful and inefficient manner. While there will be an increase in the rate of use of any natural resource and in the depletion of nonrenewable resource(s) (construction materials, fuels for the daily operation, asphalt, lumber) and the subsequent depletion of these non-renewable natural resources. Due to the scale of the proposed development, these impacts are not seen as significant. The project will not result in the loss of availability of a known mineral resource that would be of future value to the region and the residents of the State. No known mineral resource that would be of future value to the region and the residents of the State are located at this project site. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. Hazards 9.a.c. The project will not include the storage of petroleum based or other hazardous products in large quantity. R:\STAFFRPT\aPA96.PC2 6/12196 slb 34 9.b. 9.d. 9.e. Noise lO.a. The project will not interfere with an emergency response plan or an emergency evaluation plan. The subject site is not located in an area which could impact an emergency response plan. The project will take access from a maintained street and will therefore not impede any emergency response or emergency evacuation plans. The project will not expose people to existing sources of potential health hazards. No health hazards are known to be within proximity of the project. The project will not result in an increase to fire hazard in an area with fl,ammable brush, grass, or trees. The project is not located within or proximate to a fire hazard area. The proposal will result in increases to existing noise levels. The site is currently vacant and any development of the land would result in increases to noise levels during construction phases as well as increases to noise in the area over the long run. The project site is located within an industrial area. There are no sensitive receptors located in the area, lO.b. The project may expose people to severe noise levels and vibrations during the development/construction phase (short run). Construction machinery is capable of producing noise in the range of 100+ DBA at 100 feet which is considered very annoying and can cause hearing damage from steady 8-hour exposure. This source of noise will be of short duration and therefore will not be considered significant. Public Services 11 .a,b. The project will have a less than significant impact upon, or result in a need for new or altered fire or police protection. The project will incrementally increase the need for fire and police protection; however, it will contribute its fair share to the maintenance of service provision from these entities. 11.c. The project will have a less than significant impact upon, or result in a need for new or altered school facilities. The project will not cause significant numbers of people to relocate to the City of Temecula and therefore will not result in a need for new or altered school facilities. This project may be required to pay school mitigation fees prior to the issuance of building permits (this determination will be made by the Temecula Valley Unified School District). No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 11.d. The project will have a less than significant impact for the maintenance of public facilities, including roads. Funding for maintenance of roads is derived from the Gasoline Tax which is distributed to the City of Temecula from the State of California. Impacts to current and future needs for maintenance of roads as a result of development of the site will be incremental, however, they will not be considered significant. The Gasoline Tax is sufficient to cover any of the proposed expenses. R:\STAFFRPT\SPA96.PC2 6112196 slb 35 11.e. The project will not have an effect upon, or result in a need for new or altered governmental services. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. Utilities and Service Systems 12.a. The project will not result in a need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to power or natural gas. These systems are currently being delivered to the site. 12.b. The project will not result in a need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to communication systems (reference response No. 12.a.). 12.c. The project will have a less than significant effect in the need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to local or regional water treatment or distribution facilities. 12.d. The project will not result in a need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to sanitary sewer systems or septic tanks. While the project will have an incremental impact upon existing systems, the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the City's General Plan states: "both EMWD and RCWD have indicated an ability to supply as much water as is required in their services areas (p. 39)." The FEIR further states: "implementation of the proposed General Plan would not significantly impact wastewater services (p. 40)." Since the project is consistent with the City's General Plan, no significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. There are no septic tanks on site or proximate to the site. 12.e. The proposal will result in a need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to storm water drainage. The project is in-fill, and will need to provide some additional on-site drainage systems. The drainage system will be required as a condition of approval for the project and will tie into the existing system. 12.f, The proposal will not result in a need for new systems or substantial alterations to solid waste disposal systems. Any potential impacts from solid waste created by this development can be mitigated through participation in any Source Reduction and Recycling Programs which are implemented by the City. 12.g. The project will not result in a need for new systems or supplies, or substantial alterations to local or regional water supplies. Reference response 12.d. Aesthetics 13.a. The project will not affect a scenic vista or scenic highway. The project is in-fill and is not located in a area where there is a scenic vista. Further, the City does not have any designated scenic highways. R:\STAFFRPT~SPA96.pC2 6/12196 slb 36 13.b. Although the project is considered infill in nature, the size and lack of articulation of the building mass will created a negative aesthetic environment. Mitigation measures and the conditions of approval will be instituted that will create a similar level of design compatible with the surrounding area and thus mitigate against the negative aesthetic effect. 13.e. The project will have a potentially significant impact from light and glare. The project will produce and result in light/glare as all development of this nature results in new light sources. All light and glare has the potential to impact the Mount Palomar Observatory, The project will be conditioned to be consistent with Ordinance No. 655 (Ordinance Regulating Light Pollution). Cultural Resources 14.d. The project will not have the potential to cause a physical change which would affect unique ethnic cultural values. None exist at the site or are proximate to the site. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 14.e. The project will not restrict existing religious or sacred uses within the potential impact area. No religious or sacred uses exist at the site or are proximate to the site. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. ReCreation 15.a,b. The proposal will not result in ~mpacts to the quality or quantity of existing recreational resources or opportunities. The project will not cause significant numbers of people to relocate to the City of Temecula and therefore will not result in impacts to the quality or quantity of existing recreational resources or opportunities, R:\STAFFRPT~gPA96.PC2 6/12/96 slb 37 ATTACHMENT NO. 3 MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM R:\STAFFRPT\SPA96.PC2 6/12/96 < z Z Z z ~ ~ < < < ATTACHMENT NO. 4 EXHIBITS R:\STAFFRPTXSPA96.PC2 6/12/96 slb 45 CITY OF TEMECULA / / t \ \ LIB BEST WESTERN '\, TEMECULA - \ '-.~ ,~ ~_ A CASE NO. - PA96-0008 (Development Plan) EXHIBIT- A VICINITY MAP PLANNING COMMISSION DATE - MAY 20, 1996 CITY OF TEMECULA EXHIBIT B - ZONING MAP DESIGNATION - M-SC (MANUFACTURING SERVICE COMMERCIAL) O EXHIBIT C - GENERAL PLAN DESIGNATION - BP (BUSINESS PARK) CASE NO. - PA96-0008 (Development Plan) PLANNING COMMISSION DATE - MAY 20, 1996 ~P CITY OF TEMECULA CASE NO. - PA96-0008 (Development Plan) EXHIBIT- D PLANNING COMMISSION DATE - MAY 20, 1996 SITE PLAN CITY OF TEMECULA CASE NO. - PA96-0008 (Development Plan) EXHIBIT - E PLANNING COMMISSION DATE - MAY 20, 1996 ELEVATIONS R:\STAFFP, PT~SPA96,PC15/2/~ CITY OF TEMECULA '1 CASE NO. - PA96-0008 (Development Plan) EXHIBIT - F PLANNING COMMISSION DATE - MAY 20, 1996 LANDSCAPE PLANS R:\STAFFRPT~SPA96.PC1 512196 slb ATTACHMENT NO. 5 LETTERS OF OPPOSITION R:\STAFFRPT\gPA96.PC2 6/12/96 slb 46 Jefferson Creek, Ltd. 273 11 Jefferson Avenue, Suite 103, Temecula, CA 92590 Phone (909) 676-7177/676-6168 / FAX (909) 699-0048 April 18, 1996 Mr. Stephen Brown CITY OF TEMECULA PLANNING DEPARTMENT 43174 Business Park Drive Temecula, CA 92590 RE: PA 96-0008 (DEVELOPMENT PLAN) HYDRO-SCAPE PRODUCTS, INC. ........ Dear Mr. Brown, I am in receipt of the Notice of Public Hearing concerning the proposed development referenced above. I represent of Jefferson Creek, Ltd., which owns the adjacent shopping center known as Jefferson Creek. Our project is a high quality, retail development with tenants such as Richie's Real American Diner, Filippi's Pizza, Making Waves Hair Salon, Jarvinen Travel, CDM/Westmar Commercial Real Estate and others. We are strongly opposed to the proposed development for the following reasons: The use is incompatible with the surrounding development in North Jefferson Business Park, which includes our property. It is immediately adjacent to office buildings, medical office buildings, First Pacific National Break, and similar uses. The proposed use is clearly an industrial use. The proposed use will have a high concentration of outside storage. According to the site plan that I have reviewed, the building consists of 9,994 sq. ft. with outside storage of 27,830 sq. ft. The storage yard is the predominant use. I have enclosed for your review photographs of the Hydro-Scape building and yard located in Escondido so you can get some sense of what type of use it really is. We believe the photographs graphically illustrate that the use is incompatible with the existing development surrounding the project. Mr. Stephen Brown April 18, 1996 Page 2 In summary, we believe the proposed project will adversely impact surrounding properties. We request that this proposed project be denied on the basis of its incompatibility with surrounding uses. Thank you for your consideration. Very truly yours, JEFFERSON CREEK, LTD.

Director of Planning CITY OF TEMECULA 43174 Business Park Drive Temecula, CA 92590 RE: Case No. PA96-0008; Hydroscape Products, Inc. Gentlemen: I am strongly OPPOSED to the above proposed development plan and I am amazed that staff has recommended approval. North Jefferson Business Park, in which this project is proposed, is comprised primadly of professional office uses in an "up-scale" environment. The Jefferson Creek retail center, immediately adjacent to the east, is an expensive, neat, well maintained facility which would be greatly damaged by this proposed project dominated by a most inappropriate outdoor storage area.. It is incompatible to all of the surrounding uses, depreciates property values of nearby properties, and represents unsound land planning and use. The use proposed belongs more appropriately in an industrial park area or at least away from quality office and commemial uses. Please be advised that as an investor in the Jefferson Creek Center I will suffer economic harm and damages if this project is approved. We assert that there is significant environmental harm which may ensue and that not all environmental impacts have been appropriately considered or reviewed. We contest the negative declaration determination on numerous grounds, including but not limited to traffic impacts, incompatible uses, storage of potentially toxic chemicals, and adverse economic impact on surrounding properties. ' I urge immediate rejection of this plan and proposal, cc: Lounsbery, Ferguson, Esquire John C. Raymond FIRST PACIFIC N;,ONAL BAN/,, Administrative Offices,' 613 H~ Valley Parkway, Escondido, California 92025-2597 (619) 741-3312 April 25, 1996 Mr. Stephen Brown City of Temecula Planning Department 43174 Business Park Drive Temecula, CA 92590 RE: PA 96-0008 (DEVELOPMENT PLAN) HYDRO-SCAPE PRODUCTS, INC. Dear Mr. Brown: I am in receipt of the Notice of Public Hearing concerning the proposed development referenced above. I represent First Pacific National Bank which owns the existing high-quality bank/office building located adjacent to the proposed development as well as the two lots now being developed into additional parking and available parcels next to the bank. We are strongly opposed to the proposed development for the following reasons: 1. The use is incompatible with the surrounding development in North Jefferson Business Park, which includes our property. It is immediately adjacent to office buildings, medical office buildings, a high-quality retail center and similar uses. The proposed use is clearly an industrial use. 2. The proposed use will have a high concentration of outside storage. According to the site plan that I have reviewed, the building consists of 9,994 square feet with outside storage of 27,830 square feet. The storage yard is the predominant use. This is not compatible with the surrounding existing development of office/medical building and retail centers. In summary, we believe that the proposed project will adversely impact surrounding properties. We request that this proposed project be denied on the basis of its incompatibility with surrounding uses. Thank you for your consideration. Executive Vice President/COO MJP:jff FAX.'

Plot Plan Development Plan Submittal No. PA96-0008 To Whom It May Concern, We own 41593 Winchester Road and 27315 Jefferson Avenue, which are located one lot over from this proposed use. We feel Hydroscape is a great company but it's use does not fit into an office and retail park. As you know most of the office and retail projects in this park have been given back to the banks. As one of a handful of owners that have hung in here the last thing we need is to compete with other projects in Temecula that have outside storage next to their building. Let's bring Hydroscape to Temecula but in the appropriate place, not in an office park. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, CASTE~,R,/EAMI).Y ENTERPRISES Brian R.
