Ms. Katherine Runkle, 32070 Corte Bonilo, noted that she was a proponent of the Wolf Creek Project for the following reasons: 1) this was a great in-fill development, 2) with respect to densities, relayed that in the City of Temecula, there existed a need for a wide range of densities, 3) the amenities the project proposed, including the dedication of a 40-acre sports park, 4) with respect to Pala Road, noted the need for the proposed road widening associated with this project plan, 5) the proposed fire station, 6) the proposed senior housing, and 7) the proposed commercial area which was needed in this area of the City.

Commissioner Chiniaeff advised that he would be abstaining from this issue, and therefore left the dais at this time. Attorney Curley noted that at the October 4, 2000 Planning Commission meeting the public comment portion of the meeting was closed with regard to this item, relaying that subsequently the Commission deliberated, and directed staff to return with resolutions, recommending denial of this project; advised that since the Commission desired to have the resolutions brought back in final form to ensure that the Commission's input was correctly reflected, that these resolutions were before the Commission for review and 3 R:PlanC omrrdminutes/101800 action at this time; confirmed for Chairman Guerriero, that this was not the final action for this project, but that this was the Commission's recommendation to the City Council; relayed in response to Chairman Guerriero's query, that since this action was a recommendation, that if it was the Commission's desire after weighing the evidence and reviewing the resolutions, to reconsider the recommendation, that it was within the Commission's jurisdiction to do so. MOTION: Chairman Guerriero moved to reconsider the Commission's action on this item. Commissioner Telesio seconded the motion. (Ultimately this motion passed; see page 5.) Commissioner Webster relayed that he had no desire to reconsider this issue, noting that the Commission had examined all the data, and had provided clear comments in response; and advised that in his opinion the Commission's recommendation for denial should be forwarded to the City Council. Chairman Guerriero relayed the reasons for his desire to reconsider this matter: 1) the phasing of the project would provide an opportunity for the City to review each phase of development prior to proceeding further, 2) the high quality of the proposed project with numerous amenities, and 3) noted that the project plan met the criteria of the City's General Plan, the Growth Management Plan, and the City's mission statement. Commissioner Mathewson commended staff for the excellent work in drafting the resolutions of denial in a brief turnaround time, which accurately reflected the Commission's input. For Commissioner Mathewson, Attorney Curley noted that if it was the Commission's desire to reconsider this matter, that the reconsideration tonight would be based on the data, analysis, and evidence that has already been presented to the Planning Commission regarding this issue; and advised that if it was the Planning Commission's desire to reopen the public comment portion of the meeting, and/or to obtain new information and additional analysis, he would strongly recommend that the matter be re- noticed. Commissioner Mathewson relayed that based on the issues previously addressed by the Planning Commission which have been accurately contained in the resolutions, that he would not support a reconsideration of the matter, while advising that if it was the applicant's desire to address the concerns contained in the resolutions, he could support a continuation. Attorney Curley provided additional information regarding the project being presented to the City Council, noting that the City Council would take into consideration the recommendation of the Planning Commission, relaying that the City Council could reverse the decision, agree with the decision, or the decision could be modified; noted that if the modifications were substantial the City Council would redirect the issue back to the Commission; and clarified the purpose of the Planning Commission's recommendation and the associated resolutions. Commissioner Telesio relayed that it was his opinion, after further consideration, that the action, of the Planning Commission should have been to continue the matter until the issues of concern could be further explored, noting that various issues of concern were 4 R:PlanComm/minutes/101800 brought forward for the first time at the last meeting which did not provide the applicant the opportunity to address the concerns; noted that the Commission should have taken additional time to review the project rather than moving the project forward with a recommendation at that time; and relayed that he supported the motion to reconsider the Planning Commission's action. Commissioner Webster relayed that City Council direction was necessary with respect to this project; with respect to approval of the proposed densities, noted the confusion with the Council's departure from the General Plan in the guidelines sefforth in the GMP; and advised that it was not a prudent use of time for the Commission or for the applicant to attempt to fine tune this project, recommending that this matter be forwarded to the City Council. Chairman Guerriero relayed the benefits to the City this project would provide, noting, among other elements, the 40-acre sports park; and advised that he queried the detail in which the Commission had addressed the specific housing product at this early stage in the process. Noting that after re-reading material (per agenda material regarding Agenda Item No. 3) regarding the role of the Commissioner, Commissioner Telesio relayed that the Planning Commission should not anticipate the Council's direction, but make an independent determination based on whether the project is consistent with the General Plan, and the guidelines setforth in the Growth Management Plan (GMP). In terms of the GMP, and its relationship to the General Plan, Commissioner Mathewson noted the Council's struggle with these important issues, relaying the Council's arduous process of reviewing a project last week until 1:30 A.M.; concurred with Commissioner Telesio's comments, noting that it was the Planning Commission's charge to make a determination based on the General Plan, and the GMP guidelines, and not to simply forward the project to the City Council; relayed hopes that the City Council would recognize that the Planning Commission has been struggling to meet the intent of the GMP, recommending that there be direction provided with respect to resolution of some of the vital issues; and advised that if it was determined by the Planning Commission that this issue be continued, that the applicant address the numerous concerns setforth by the Planning Commission, noting his willingness to continue this matter. At this time voice vote was taken reflecting a split vote, Chairman Guerriero and Commissioner Telesio voting yes, Commissioner Mathewson and Commissioner Webster voting no, and Commissioner Chiniaeff abstaining. (Ultimately this voice vote was amended.) In response to Commissioner Mathewson, Attorney Curley clarified the motion being voted on at this time, noting that prior to moving to continue this matter the Commission first needed to move to reconsider the Planning Commission's past action regarding this project. Commissioner Mathewson noted that he had misunderstood the motion and requested to modify his vote. At this time voice vote was taken reflecting approval with the exception of Commissioner Webster who voted n._~o and Commissioner Chiniaeff who abstained. MOTION: Commissioner Mathewson moved to continue this item, directing the applicant to work with staff to address the issues encompassed in the resolutions of denial. Commissioner Telesio seconded the motion. (Ultimately this motion was amended.) In response to Attorney Curley, Mr. Bill Griffith, representing the applicant, thanked the Commission for the vote to reconsider the Commission's past recommendation regarding this project; highlighted various positive aspects of the project plan, noting the comments relayed during the public comment portion of the meeting regarding the much-needed sports park; relayed the applicant's desire to move forward to the City Council with a clearly defined project, noting that at this point, the Commission's input had not been fully addressed; and advised that the applicant would support continuing the matter in order to address the issues that remain outstanding. In response to Attorney Curley, Mr. Alhadeff, attorney representing the applicant, relayed that the applicant would address the issues denoted in the findings (per the findings encompassed in the resolutions of denial), and would respond to these concerns without reopening the public hearing. Attorney Curley relayed that the applicant was asserting that the record was complete, advising that if the resolutions contain further new information it would require reopening the public comment portion of the meeting at the continued meeting. In response, Mr. Alhadeff relayed that the applicant would submit to re-opening the public comment portion of the meeting if it was determined that this was necessary, noting that it was his understanding that keeping the public comment portion closed was the desire of the Planning Commission. Attorney Curley provided clarification regarding the criteria determining whether the public comment period should be re-opened when this matter was brought back before the Commission. Commissioner Mathewson relayed that he was of the strong opinion that the public should have an opportunity to address the information presented to the Commission, noting that he would amend his motion to include this element. AMENDED MOTION: Commissioner Mathewson moved to continue this matter to the December 6, 2000 Planning Commission meeting, and to reopen the public comment period at that time. Commissioner Telesio seconded the motion. (Ultimately this motion passed; see page 7.) Commissioner Webster relayed that it was his opinion that continuing this matter would not be prudent without gaining City Council input, querying whether there would be an opportunity for the Planning Commission to receive input prior to this item being brought back to the Planning Commission. Attorney Curley advised that the City Council would ultimately be considering this item in a deliberative adjudicative basis, noting that if specific input was received prior to that time it would askew the process. Commissioner Webster clarified that he was recommending a joint workshop. Attorney Curley noted that there were alternative methods of receiving direction from the City Council (other than polling the City Council with respect to this project), reiterating Director of Planning Ubnoske's suggestion that a Subcommittee could be formed, noting that staff would explore the alternatives. Director of Planning Ubnoske recommended that there be a Subcommittee rather than a Joint City Council/Planning Commission Workshop due to the timing issues. Commissioner Mathewson noted his desire to provide ample time for the applicant to address the previously mentioned issues, and for staff to schedule a meeting between the Planning Commission and the Subcommitee. Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that on November 15th staff would provide an update on this project; and in response to Commissioner Mathewson, relayed that she understood the Commission's desire (per Commissioner Webster' s comments) to gain input from the Subcommittee. At this time voice vote was taken reflecting approval with the exception of Commissioner Chiniaeff who abstained. It was noted that at 6:56 P.M. the meeting recessed, reconvening at 7:06 P.M. At this time the Commission considered Item No. 3 (Workshop). 3 Workshop Director of Planning Ubnoske recommended that as staff proceeded through the Workshop Agenda (as per agenda material), that the discussions be interactive, inviting the Commission to provide comments. Topic of discussion: The Role of the Plannin,q Commissioner Attorney Curley provided an overview of the Planning Commission's role (per agenda material), noting that under State Law the Planning Commission was the body charged with carrying out a city's planning function, noting that these determinations were final in some cases, and advisory in others. Commissioner Chiniaeff provided an overview of his understanding of the role of the Planning Commission, noting that the GoVernment Code provides the City Council the authority to approve certain matters, and to delegate various responsibilities to a lower body (i.e., the Planning Commission) relaying that some issues were delegated for final approval, while others were finally approved by the City Council, advising that various issues were mandated to be dealt with at a City Council level; noted that the Planning Commission was to advise the City Council with respect to the issues directed to the Planning Commission body for recommendation; and relayed that the Planning Commission follows the guidelines setforth via the laws and ordinances passed by the City Council. Attorney Curley noted that there were also certain abilities of the Commission to adopt its own procedural guidelines, providing additional information. For Commissioner Chiniaeff, Attorney Curley confirmed that the Planning Commission did not have the authority to set land use decision policies. 7 R:PlanComm/minutes/101800 Discussion ensued regarding the $100 payment the Planning Commissioners received monthly as project employees of the City. Topic of discussion: The 8 Step Approach of the Plannin,q Commission Director of Planning Ubnoske presented the 8 Step Approach regarding the Planning Commission (via workshop material). With respect to Step 4, Chairman Guerriero recommended that if a Planning Commissioner had numerous queries regarding aspects of a project, that the Commissioner schedule a meeting with staff prior to the hearing. Director of Planning Ubnoske advised that staff would be holding Workshops to aid in the review process of the Planning Commission, specifically, as two additional Specific Plans move forward in the review phase, noting that clarification would be provided with respect to the role of the Commissioner, the review process, and the product review phase; relayed that rather than presenting a Specific Plan in its entirety, that there would be a series of workshops to consider smaller components of the Specific Plan; advised that the Commissioners could schedule a time to discuss with staff issues regarding the plans, noting that she and Deputy City Manager Thornhill would be willing come in early, or stay late to accommodate the Commissioners schedules. Attorney Curiey advised that the Planning Commission could also contact him by email or at his office, noting that if a question posed was not regarding a personal conflict of interest, that he would respond to the entirety of the Commission. For Commissioner Telesio, Attorney Curley advised that the General Plan, any Specific Plan, the GMP, and alternate instruments utilized were tools to assist the Planning Commission in making a finding, providing additional information regarding the Planning Commission actions and its associated findings, relaying that the action needed to be supported by logical and supportable findings which are setforth in the resolutions in order to undergird the action. Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that per discussions with the General Plan Subcommittee, there was a consensus that there existed confusion between the General Plan and the guidelines of the GMP, advising that the General Plan may be amended at this point in time to provide clarification. Commissioner Mathewson concurred with the plan to present the upcoming Specific Plans in smaller components. In response to Commissioner Mathewson, Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that she could email the Planning Commissioners with upcoming controversial projects. In response to Director of Planning Ubnoske, Chairman Guerriero noted that the Planning Commission needed an updated staff contact list, Commissioner Chiniaeff relaying that he had not received this list. 8 R:PlanComm/minute~101800 Topic of discussion: The Responsibilities the City Council has delegated to the Plannin.q Commission (i.e., Findin.qs of Public Convenience or Necessity, and Compliance with the Growth Manaqement Action Plan) Director of Planning Ubnoske presented the City Council delegated responsibilities of the Planning Commission, relaying the data (of record) regarding the Finding of Public Convenience or Necessity (PCN), and compliance with the Growth Management Action Plan. Chairman Guerriero commented on granting alcohol licenses, the ABC's role in this matter, and the recent modification in the census tracts; relayed his opposition in making the PCN Findings based on the applicant's desire to raise the value of his property; advised that with each granted license there was another opportunity for an minor individual to buy and consume alcohol; and queried how many licensed alcohol establishments were needed in the City of Temecula by build out. In response to Chairman Guerriero's comments, Commissioner Chiniaeff recommended that the zoning ordinances be revised if there was a desire to not allow liquor licenses in certain areas due to a saturation of such uses, in order to provide property owners and developers with this information in advance. Director of Planning Ubnoske provided additional information regarding Conditional Use Permits (CUPs), noting that these permits can be revoked. For Commissioner Mathewson, Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that at the DRC level, staff clarified to applicant's proposing alcohol serving uses, that the Planning Commission was concerned with alcoholic establishments in the City. Commissioner Telesio noted that the establishment of uses selling alcohol was market driven, relaying that the City had a successful program to detect uses that would sell to minors, noting that the incidents were rare; and advised that it was his opinion that the policing of the uses was effective, relaying that the CUPs could be pulled for uses not in compliance with the standards. Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that staff had implemented a new component in the process of obtaining a license to sell alcohol, noting that the plan was routed to the Police Department who held meetings with the applicants to discuss training, hours of operation, and security. Chairman Guerriero relayed that with a proliferation of uses selling alcohol, there would not be adequate numbers of Law Enforcement Officers to control the liquor sales to minors. Commissioner Telesio commended uses that had a self-regulating program within their company policies. With respect to licensed uses, Commissioner Webster advised that making the PCN Findings was a subjective process, providing additional information. At this time discussions ensued regarding the Growth Management Action Plan (GMP). 9 R:PlenComm/minutes/101800 With respect to the GMP, Commissioner Webster noted that there was direct conflict with the guidelines setforth, and the General Plan; relayed that there was a Growth Management Element encompassed in the General Plan which included policies and goals; and relayed that in his opinion the City Council should introduce new policies when the General Plan was updated, noting that he was pleased that there was a plan to update the General Plan with respect to the GMP guidelines at this time, advising that this was necessary. Commissioner Mathewson relayed that Section 2A, subsection 2a and c (regarding redistribution of land uses, and review multi-family housing issues throughout the City) of the GMP was unclear. Commissioner Telesio relayed that there was still uncertainty with respect to qualifying "amenities" per the GMP. Commending Deputy Director of Public Works Parks who sat on the original City Council for the City of Temecula, Chairman Guerriero relayed that the list of amenities denoted in the General Plan was the specific document that he utilized as a guide, noting that the GMP was too vague. Commissioner Chiniaeff advised that if the General Plan was amended to reflect the Council's desired policy standards, the Planning Commission and the development community would have the necessary guidance. Director of Planning Ubnoske noted that staff had relayed to the Subcommittee that staff was unsure how to direct developers, advising that Mayor Pro Tern Comerchero concurred that there needed to be some rules in place in order for the Planning Commission, staff, and the City Council to all be on the same page. In response to Commission comments, Attorney Curley relayed that the Findings associated with the Commission's action would articulate the Planning Commission's interpretation of acceptable amenities to the City Council; clarified that Council would then be able to view in the written findings the Commission's concepts, and subsequently address points of disagreement; noted that at the joint meeting, the City Council had relayed that the Council trusted the Planning Commission to apply the guidelines and move forward with recommendations. Commissioner Mathewson noted that with the Temecula Ridge Project, the City Council determined that the amenities encompassed in the project did not meet the criteria, although the Planning Commission had recommended approval (noting that the vote was not unanimous). In response to Commissioner Mathewson, Attorney Curley noted that as the Council considers the Planning Commission's action and subsequently responds, that new information is obtained which aids staff in further defining the City Council's desired direction. Commissioner Chiniaeff relayed that with the Temecula Ridge project the City Council did not specify amenities that would meet the criteria, advising that political issues also play a part in the approval of projects, reiterating that a true definition of a qualifying amenity was not revealed. 10 R:PlanComm/minutes/101800 Director of Planning Ubnoske noted that the Subcommittee had also discussed dividing the in-fill projects from the large Specific Plan projects, recognizing that the amenities associated with a Specific Plan would be quite different than for an in-fill project. In response to Commissioner Mathewson, Attorney Curley advised that a General Plan revision would come before the Planning Commission for recommendation. Commissioner Chiniaeff recommended that the Zoning Map and the Land Use Map be explored in order to identify the remaining vacant parcels in the City. Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that if the Planning Commission had a desire for provision of a GIS map at any time that requests be relayed to staff, advising that this was a helpful tool. Commissioner Telesio noted that one of the individual speakers during the public comment portion of this meeting had referred to the Wolf Creek Project as an in-fill project, relaying that there was a broad understanding of what constitutes an in-fill project. Additional discussion ensued regarding in-fill projects. For informational purposes, Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that during the Subcommittee meetings, the request for the City Council to learn more in order to address the genuine lack of knowledge with respect to planning issues had been relayed, advising that the City Council desired information to aid in making more informed decisions. Topic of discussion: Ex Parte Communications Attomey Curley provided an overview of ex parte communications, and due process, which ensured that all parties rights were protected; (referencing the agenda material) provided a definition of due process; advised that if a Planning Commissioner meets with an applicant, visits a project site, or receives information outside of the public hearing, it should be disclosed during the hearing, for the record, noting that the applicant should be provided an opportunity to rebut or provide an explanation regarding the disclosed information prior to Commission deliberations. With respect to ex parte communications, Attorney Curley clarified that while the Planning Commission and the City Council could participate in these meetings, that it was optional, relaying that if an individual elected not to participate in ex parte communications, this was also acceptable; reiterated that if there were meetings, that the Planning Commissioner disclosure could be relayed at the onset of the hearing also, providing additional information. In response to Commissioner Chiniaeff expressing his fear that he would forget to relay the disclosure, noting that he wrote memos as reminders, Attorney Curley noted that if it was the Commission's desire, he could question the Commission at the hearing as to whether there were any disclosures. 11 R:PlanComm/minutes/101800 (Per the provided agenda material), Attorney Curley relayed helpful tips regarding ex parte communications. For Commissioner Telesio, ,Attorney Curley advised that the Planning Commissioners could make the applicant aware of the fact that no input would be provided to the applicant during the meeting; and clarified the information that should be disclosed at the hearing. In order to establish the applicant's motivation for the meeting, Commissioner Telesio relayed that he questioned the applicant as to the purpose of the meeting. Commissioner Mathewson relayed that since it had been established that the applicant might attempt to influence the Planning Commissioners, in his view this corruPts the process, noting that the Commission can receive information from staff. Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that the applicant was oftentimes concerned about the Planning Commission not getting enough information regarding the project. Attorney Curley provided information regarding an alternate city's process of holding an informal period after consideration of the regular agenda items to discuss upcoming projects, noting that this period was held in a less formal manner (i.e., at times pizza was provided during the presentation); relayed that the applicant could present the project plan in an approximately 30-minute period and would gain initial Commission input; and relayed that while he was not recommending this procedure for the City of Temecula, it was his intent to let the Commission be aware that there were alternate avenues. With respect to ex parte communications, Commissioner Chiniaeff relayed that there was a fine line between education from an applicant and influence; and noted the benefits of the Planning Commissioners taking the tour to Orange County to visit development projects, advising that this type of knowledge and experience could be utilized while reviewing projects. For informational purposes, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks explained the philosophy of the City Council when setting up the ex parte meeting policy; advised that at that time there were time limits placed on the developer's presentation to the Planning Commission or the City Council, and that due to the complication of the projects and the limited time staff could spend on the presentation, it was the applicant's desire to familiarize the approving body with the project; advised that the City Council was of the opinion that the applicant could explain the project in greater detail during the ex parte communications; and noted that information could be gained regarding architecture, land planning or alternate elements. It was noted that at 8:11 P.M. the meeting recessed, reconvening at 8:19 P.M. Commissioner Webster noted that at times during the hearing, there were questions that the Commission should direct to the applicant instead of to staff. Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that various questions could also be directed to the department staff that had the most expertise in certain areas (i.e., traffic questions to Public Works staff). t2 R: PlanCom rn/minut e~101800 Deputy Director of Public Works Parks noted that on many occasions the applicant had their engineers, architects, and alternate consultants present who were available for questions from the Commission; and relayed that the Public Works Department thoroughly reviewed the applicant's' submitted traffic analysis. In response to Chairman Guerriero, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed that there had been discussions regarding including in the staff report additional traffic data (i.e., an executive summary). Chairman Guerriero relayed the benefits of the ex parte communications, noting that numerous developers were upfront and honest with a desire solely to provide additional information; and noted that it was his opinion that the additional data was helpful in making a more informed determination on the project. In his experience with ex parte communications, Commissioner Mathewson relayed that applicants had requested him for information regarding what issues he had with a development plan, and what he would desire to see included in the project, advising that he would not provide this input outside of the hearing setting. Chairman Guerriere noted that there seemed to be a lack of knowledge within the community with respect to the planning process, property rights, and land use, advising that there would be a positive affect if additional education were provided. Commissioner Telesio concurred with Chairman Guerriero, noting that it would be helpful if there could be an informational source that provided the fundamental elements of the planning process. Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that it was unfortunate that the public did not call staff if there were concerns or questions, advising that one-on-one communications were helpful in informing individuals. Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed that the Public Works Department received numerous calls form public members. Additional discussion ensued regarding avenues to educate the public. Director of Planning Ubnoske noted that for larger projects, public meeting have been held to inform the community, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relaying that several community meetings were held regarding the Wolf Creek Project. With respect to relaying information to the public, Commissioner Webster relayed that it appeared at this point in time that numerous residents had the understanding that projects would only be approved at the lowest densities, advising that these misconceptions needed to addressed. Attorney Curiey relayed that a City newsletter was an avenue that could be utilized for providing the public with information (i.e., frequently asked questions). Commissioner Webster suggested that City Manager Nelson could write a letter to the editor of the newspaper, clarifying issues such as the GMP. In response, Commissioner Telesio relayed that since the data was coming from the City it would most likely be perceived as biased. 13 R:Plan Corn m/minu[es/1018(30 Topic of discussion: The Results of the Questionnaire Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that she had highlighted approximately twenty-five percent (25%) of the questions (where there were two or more points assigned to a question) answered by the Planning Commission; provided an overview of the issues associated with these particular questions (per the questionnaire material which had been distributed to the Planning Commissioners); and advised that she would forward these specific questions to the Planning Commission for additional review and input. In response to Director of Planning Ubnoske's queries, Commissioner Mathewson noted that it would be helpful if staff could provide additional information in advance for the larger projects with respect to the issues or elements that staff was struggling with. In response, Director of Planning Ubnoske relayed that staff could provide this data to the Planning Commission. Director of Planning Ubnoske suggested that it might be helpful for staff and the Planning Commission to set aside a half a day for a retreat-type setting at which time goals could be established, topics for upcoming workshops could be discussed, and the upcoming year could be programmed. Commissioner Chiniaeff advised that it would be helpful if staff could prepare an annual report whereas various elements could be evaluated (i.e., the time it takes a project to be processed through the Planning Commission). Commissioner Webster relayed that in his opinion the aim of the Planning Commission was to implement the goals of the General Plan. With respect to topics for future workshops, Director of Planning Ubnoske noted that the Planning Commissioners could call or email suggestions. Additional discussion ensued regarding the Planning Commission receiving additional training, Director of Planning Ubnoske noting the budget constraints, relaying the potential for additional opportunities in the future; and advised that if the Planning Commission obtained information of interest regarding conferences or workshops that this data could be forwarded to staff, relaying that at times conferences could be attended within the parameters of the budget. For informational purposes, Attorney Curley relayed that if the Commission had interest in obtaining information with respect to legal topics, that a workshop could be scheduled with members of the law firm's staff. COMMISSIONER REPORTS Chairman Guerriero requested staff to address the landscape issue at the Cosco site, in the vicinity of the gas station. In response to Commission queries, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks providing information regarding the grading at Margarita Road and Overland Drive, noting that there was an approved tentative map with grading at this site. 14 R:PlanComm/miNates/101800 Commissioner Mathewson requested staff to investigate the sign at the Cosco site. In response to Chairman Guerriero, Deputy Director of Public Works Parks relayed that landscaped medians throughout the City are installed, as funds become available, providing additional information. Commissioner Telesio queried whether the issue regarding landscape parkways could be addressed since it seemed to be the consensual desire of the Commission to install this element in new developments. In response, Director of Planning Ubnoske noted that this issue would be addressed, relaying that there would be an upcoming policy developed for Citywide implementation.

A Development Review Committee meeting was held on October 12, 2000, and staff offered 45 comments in their DRC Comment letter dated October 20, 2000. The applicant resubmitted the project on November 7, 8, and 17, 2000, and the project was deemed complete on December 1, 2000. R:\D P\00-0367 MKI Bldgs\Temecula Corporate Centre STAFFRPT.PC 1-3-01.doc 2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project applicant expects to meet the needs of several components of business and industry by proposing a campus of buildings at the corner of Rancho Way and Business Park Drive. The project provides a two-story office building that fronts both Rancho Way and Business Park Drive, which has the capability of offering up to eight suite spaces on both floors. Adjacent to the east is a single story industrial building, which provides office and warehousing with interior loading areas. Buildings "C" and "D" are single-story which run the length of the site along its southem boundary. The end units which front on Business Park Drive have been enhanced, with their offices facing the street. Buildings "C" and "D" can offer a variety of suite sizes, with all loading areas at the interior drive aisle and office spaces facing the exterior sides of the building. ANALYSIS Access and Circulation The project site, though vacant, has existing driveway entrances along both Rancho Way and Business Park Drive. The applicant, at staff's request, removed parking spaces across from the Rancho Way entrance, to facilitate circulation at this interior intersection. On Business Park Drive, the applicant will add another entrance so that truck traffic will primarily utilize the southernmost entrance, and customers will generally utilize the new entrance immediately to the north. Drive aisles are ample both in size and length to provide convenient circulation throughout the site. Architectural Design Buildings are positioned and designed to optimize their street frontages. Attention is given to planter areas along the buildings, and to entrances as focal points. The architect utilizes three types of glass and two shades of concrete to provide contrast to building walls. Changes in building heights and wall popouts break up the building massing. Landscaping The existing streetscape along Business Park Drive shall remain and be protected in place, except where the second driveway is constructed. Six (6) Purple Leaf Plums are proposed to be removed at that location, but the applicant has provided 11 new Purple Leaf Plums outlining both entrances on Business Park Drive and 11 new Purple Leaf Plums at the corners of all buildings fronting this street. A sidewalk shall be added to Rancho Way, and existing landscaping shall be removed and replaced in this location. The applicant is providing additional perimeter landscaping along all sides of the project site to screen parking spaces and trash enclosures with shrubs and trees. All buildings have planter areas adjacent to offices, entrances, and other walls to break up massing. Landscaping is omitted only at loading areas. At staff's request, the applicant increased the size of the Chinese Flame trees at the focal points at the ends of buildings to achieve instant visual interest and plantings that are in better scale with the architecture. Outside Storage The project does not provide for outside storage of equipment or materials. Staff has conditioned the project to ensure compliance with Code requirements that any outside storage be screened. R:\D P\00-0367 MKI Bldgs\Temecula Corporate Centre STAFFRPT,PC 1-3-01.doc 3 ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION An Initial Environmental Study (lES) was prepared for this project. The lES determined that the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment with regards to aesthetics, biological resources, geology and soils, hazards and hazardous materials, hydrology and water quality, and land use and planning. However, due to the design of the project and mitigation measures imposed upon the project through conditions of approval and the project's Mitigation Monitoring Program, environmental effects are not considered to be significant. Any impacts will be mitigated to levels less than significant. GENERAL PLAN AND ZONING CONSISTENCY The General Plan Land Use designation for the site is (BP) Business Park.

Would the project: Less Than Potentially Significant With Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supportin~ Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a. Have a substantial adverse effect on a scenic vista? X b. Substantially damage scenic resources, including, but not X limited to, trees, rock outcropping, and historic building within a state scenic highway? c. Substantially degrade the existing visual character or X quality of the site and its surroundings? d. Create a new source of substantial light or glare which would adversely affect day or nighttime views in the X area? Comments: No Impact. The project will not affect a scenic vista. The project is not located in an area where there is a scenic vista. It is located in an existing industrial park. No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 1.5. No Impact. There are no designated scenic resources in the vicinity of the project site. There are no scenic resources within the project site, nor is the site within the view of a state scenic highway. As a consequence, no significant impact to scenic resources will result from the proposed project or the future development of the site. Less Than Significant Impact. The project site is approximately 6 acres of vacant property. The site has been previously graded in preparation for an industrial user within a developing industrial park. The proposal will be similar to surrounding industrial development, and will enhance the site in terms of visual character and quality. The proposed buildings offer architectural treatment, particularly along street frontages, and utilizes appropriate landscaping to breakup expanses of walls. Therefore, the project as designed will not have a significant adverse impact. Less Than Significant Impact With Mitigation Incorporated. 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 City Ordinance No. 655 (Ordinance Regulating Light Pollution). With this mitigation measure in place, less than significant impacts are anticipated. R:\D P\00-0367 MKI Bldgs\lnitial Study 00-0367.doc 2. Agricultural Resources. In determining whether impacts to agricultural resources are significant environmental effects, lead agencies may refer to the California Agricultural Land Eva uat on and S te Assessment Model (1997) prepared by the California Department of Conservation as an optional model to use in assessing impacts on agriculture and farmland. Would the project: Less Than Potentially Significant WithLess Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Impact Incorporated Impact Impact Issues and Supporting Information Sources a. Convert Prime Farmland, Unique Farmland, or Farmland X of Statewide Importance (Farmland), as shown on the maps prepared pursuant to the Farmland Mapping and Monitoring Program of the California Resources Agency, ' to non-agricultural use? b. Conflict with the existing zoning for agricultural use, or a X Williamson Act contract? c. Involve other changes in the existing environment which, X due to their location or nature, could result in conversion of farmland, to non-agricultural use? Comments: 2a.-c. No Impact. The project site is not currently in agricultural production and in the historic past has not been used for agricultural purposes. The site is not under a Williamson Act contract nor is it zoned for agricultural uses. This property is not considered prime or unique farmland of statewide or local importance as identified by the State Department of Conservation and the City of Temecula General Plan. In addition, the project will not involve changes in the existing environment which would result in the conversion of farmland to non-agricultural uses. Therefore, there is no significant impact related to this issue. 3. AIR QUALITY. Where available, the significance criteria established by the applicable quality management or air pollution control district may be relied upon to make the following determinations. Would the project: Less Than PotentiallySignificant With Less Than SignificantMitigation Significant No issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a. Conflict with or obstruct implementation of the applicable X air quality plan? b. Violate any air quality standard or contribute substantially X to an existing or projected air quality violation? c. Result in a cumulatively considerable net increase of any X criteria pollutant for which the project region is non- attainment under an applicable federal or state ambient air quality standard (including releasing emissions which exceed quantitative thresholds for ozone precursors? d. Expose sensitive receptors to substantial pollutant X concentrations? e. Create objectionable odors affecting a substantial number X of people? R:\D P\00-0367 MKI Bldgs\lnitial Study 00-0367.doc 2 Comments: 3.a.,b. Less Than Significant Impact. The project as proposed will comply w!th State and National ambient air quality standards. The project does not exceed the daily thresholds of potential significance for air quality as noted in Table 6-2 of the Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) and emissions thresholds established in South Coast Air Quality Management District's (SCAQMD) CEQA Air Quality Handbook (April 1993). Furthermore, the City of Temecula's General Plan EI R has addressed development of the site for industrial uses and anticipated a target Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 0.40. The General Plan established target floor area ratios within various land uses in order to determine the intensity of uses and the impacts upon the environment. The General Plan EIR evaluates the impacts of development at the target FAR. The analysis conducted for this project indicates that the project has a floor area ratio of 0.33, below the target. Therefore, no significant impacts related to conflicts with air quality plans are anticipated from the proposed project. Less Than Significant Impact. The project may generate some pollutants and thereby contribute to the cumulative impact to air quality. However, as noted above, the General Plan EIR evaluation of impacts by development at the target FAR specifically references cumulative impacts. No air quality standard violations are expected from this project. Because the project FAR is below the target, impacts are anticipated to be less than significant. No Impact. The project Will not expose sensitive receptors to pollutants. There are no significant pollutants in proximity to the project nor is it anticipated that the project will generate pollutants. The project shall comply with the environmental standards as detailed in the Development Code for industrial development. No significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. Less Than Significant Impact. The project may create objectionable odors, particularly during the construction phase of the project. These impacts will be or short duration and ara not considered significant over the long term. The project shall comply with the environmental standards as detailed in the Development Code for industrial development. Therefore, less than significant long-term impacts are anticipated as a result of the project. 4. BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES: Would the project: Less Than Potentially Significant With Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a.

Conflict with the provisions of an adopted habitat Conservation Plan, Natural Community Conservation X Plan, or other approved local, regional, or state habitat conservation plan? Commen~: No Impact. The site has been rough graded previously into developable industrial pads. The General Plan does not designate the project site as a potentially sensitive habitat site. The site is outside the habitat area identified for the Quino Checkerspot Butterfly and the California Gnatcatcher, and does not contain wetlands as defined by the Clean Water Act. There is no anticipated biological impact associated with this project. Less Than Significant Impact with Mitigation Incorporated. The project is located within the fee area for the Stephan's Kangaroo Rat (SKR) Long-Term Habitat Conservation Plan. All development within this fee area is required to pay a mitigation fee. This project will be required to pay a mitigation fee for the SKR. As a consequence, with mitigation measures incorporated into the Conditions of Approval for this project, a less than significant impact is anticipated. 5. CULTURAL RESOURCES.

Have soil incapable of adequately supporting the use of X septic tanks or alternative waste water disposal systems where sewers are not available for the disposal of waste water?. Comments: Less Than Significant Impact With Mitigation Incorporated.. There are two known earthquake fault, the Willard Fault and the Wildomar Fault, delineated on the most recent Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Map. A Fault and Seismicity Investigation by Shaefer Dixon Associates, Inc. dated June 30, 1989 for the proposed site and adjacent area identifies the Wildomar Special Studies Zone as being 3,500 feet to the northeast. The Investigation identifies the Willard fault's Restricted Use Zone as encroaching 20 feet on the western portion of the project site. The design of the development has maintained the minimum 50-foot setback from the faultline, with the nearest building being over 66 feet beyond the fault setback zone where human inhabited structures are prohibited. A Geotechnical/Geological Engineering Study dated September 1, 2000 was prepared for the project by EnGEN Corporation, which references the Schaefer Dixon Associates, Inc. Investigation, as well as the Schaefer Dixon Associates, Inc. Grading Report dated March 13, 1990. The EnGEN Study states that active faulting does not occur on the site. With the project design in place, less than significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 6.a.ii, iv, b., and d. Less Than Significant Impact With Mitigation Incorporated. There may be a potentially significant impact from seismic ground shaking, ground failure, soil erosion, or expansive soils. The project is located in Southern California, an area that is seismically active. Any potential significant impacts will be mitigated through building construction, consistent with the Uniform Building Code standards. Further, the project will be conditioned to provide soil reports prior to grading and recommendations contained in this report are complied with during construction. The soil reports will also contain recommendations for the compaction of the soil, which will serve to mitigate any potentially significant R:\D P\00-O367 MKI Bldgs\lnitial Study OO-O367.doc 5 ,6, impacts from seismic grob~l~'shaking, seismic ground failure, liq subsidence and expansive soils. After mitigation measures are performed, a less than significant impact is anticipated as a result of this project. Less Than Significant Impact With Mitigation Incorporated. The development of the site may be affected by liquefaction, subsidence or unstable soil conditions from excavation, grading or fill. However, the EnGEN Study provides specific recommendations that address these concerns. After mitigation measures are performed, a less than significant impact is anticipated as a result of this project. Recommendations include the following: 1) Clearing the site so that no disking or mixing of organic material into the soils is performed. Fill material shall not contain rocks or clumps greater than 6-inches. Man-made objects encountered shall be overexcavated and exported from the site. 2) To mitigate for the potential hazards associated with liquefaction, removals below the proposed structure area shall extend to a depth of ten (10) feet below proposed pad grade or ten (10) feet below existing grades, whichever results in the deeper removal. Horizontal extent of removals shall be a minimum of ten (10) feet beyond the perimeter footings. All exposed removal bottoms shall be inspected by the Soil Engineer's representative prior to placement of any fill. 3) The approved exposed bottoms shall be scarified 12 inches, brought to a near optimum moisture content, and compacted to a minimum of 90 percent relative compaction before placement of fill. 4) Compaction equipment used shall include rubber-tired or track-mounted equipment and sheepsfoot rollers to achieve proper compaction. 5) Average shrinkage of soils shall be on the order of 10 to 15 percent. 6) Finished fill slopes shall not be inclined steeper than 2:1 (horizontal to vertical). Fill slopes shall be compacted to 90 percent relative compaction, constructed in a skillful manner so that they are positioned at the design orientations and slope ratio, and shall be backrolled with suitable equipment for the type of soil being used during fill placement at intervals not exceeding 4.0 feet in vertical height. 7) Expansion potential shall be conducted to identify the potential for each pad and to assign appropriate foundation and slab-on-grade recommendations for construction. No Impact. Septic sewage disposal systems are not proposed for this project. The ultimate development of the site will be required to hook up to the existing public sewer system in Business Park Drive. Therefore, no impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.

Comments: 7.a.,b. Less Than Significant Impact With Mitigation Incorporated. Tenants in the proposed project may utilize and store hazardous materials. Any future tenant will be required to comply with all applicable City and State Fire Code requirements prior to occupancy in order to mitigate any significant impacts regarding the use and storage of hazardous materials. The project shall be required to obtain clearance from both the Riverside County Department of Environmental Health and the County Fire Department. With this mitigation measure in place any potential impact shall be mitigated. No Impact. This project site is not located within ¼ mile of an existing or proposed school. The nearest school site, Temecula Elementary School, is a mile away. No impact is anticipated. 7.d. No Impact. The applicant has certified that the project site is located within a one-mile radius of an identified hazardous waste site, pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5 that would create a significant hazard to the public or the environment. However, the site itself is not an identified R:\D P\00-0367 MKI Bldgs\lnitial Study 00-0367.doc 7 hazardous waste site by the Secretary of Environmenta~Frotection. Therefore, no impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 7.e.,f. No Impact. The project site is not located within an airport land use plan or within two miles of a public or private airstrip. The nearest airport is French Valley, whose runway is more than 5 miles to the east. No impact upon airport uses will result from this proposal. 7.9. No Impact. The project will take access from two maintained public streets and will therefore not impede emergency response or evacuation plans. No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. No Impact. The project will not result in an increase to fire hazard in an area with flammable brush, grass, or trees. The project is an industrial building for manufacturing and warehousing in an area of similar Business Park/Light Industrial uses. The project is not located within or proximate to a fire hazard area. No impacts are anticipated. 8. HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY. Would the project: Less Than Potentially Significant With Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a. Violate any water quality standards or waste discharge X requirements? b. Substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere X substantially with groundwater recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local groundwater table level (e.g., the production rate of pre-existing nearby wells would drop to a level which would not support existing land uses or planned uses for which permits have been granted)? c. Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site X or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, in a manner which would result in substantial erosion or siltation on- or off-site? d. Substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site X or area, including through the alteration of the course of a stream or river, or substantially increase the rate or amount of surface runoff in a manner that would result in flooding on- or off-site? e.

Expose people or structures to a significant risk of loss, X injury or death involving flooding, including flooding as a result of the failure of a levee or dam? R:\D P\00-0367 MKI Bldgs\lnitial Study 00-0367.doc 8 Inundation by seiche, 'hi, or mudflow? Comments: Less Than Significant Impact With Mitigation Incorporated. The project will not violate any water quality standards or waste discharge requirements. The project is 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. With mitigation a less than significant impact is anticipated as a rasult of this project. 8.b.f. Less Than Significant Impact. The project will not substantially deplete groundwater supplies or interfere substantially with greundwater recharge such that there would be a net deficit in aquifer volume or a lowering of the local greundwater table level. The project will not have an affect on the quantity and quality of greund waters, either through direct additions or withdrawals or through interception of an aquifer by cuts or excavations or through substantial loss of greundwater recharge capability. Further, construction on the site will not be at depths sufficient to have a significant impact on ground waters or aquifer volume. The applicant proposes to use reclaimed water and provide a demonstration garden onsite to mitigate water consumption and promote water conservation. No impacts ara anticipated as a result of this project. 8.c.d. Less Than Significant Impact. The preposed project will not substantially alter the existing drainage pattern of the site or area in a manner which would result in substantial erosion or siltation and/or flooding on- or off-site. Some changes to absorption rates, drainage patterns and the rate and amount of surface runoff is expected whenever development occurs on previously permeable greund. 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 mitigated through site design. Drainage conveyances are required for the project to safely and adequately handle runoff that is created. An existing three-foot wide concrete drainage channel traverses the eastern boundary of the site, and shall remain in place. The proposed project would have a less than significant impact on the existing storm drain facilities. Less Than Significant Impact. The project is not anticipated to create or contribute runoff water which would exceed the capacity of existing or planned storm water drainage systems or provide substantial additional sources of polluted runoff. The project is conditioned to accommodate the drainage created as a result of the development of the subject site. In addition, the project is conditioned so that the drainage will not impact surrounding properties. A less than significant impact is associated with this project. No Impact. This project represents a development plan for an industrial user within an industrial park. No residential property is affected; no impact is associated with this project. Less Than Significant Impact With Mitigation Incorporated. The project may expose people or property to water related hazards such as flooding. According to the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District, the project site is in area that is subject to severe flood hazard from Murrieta Creek. This project as conditioned requires the developer to pay flood mitigation fees to the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District. The project is also located within the dam inundation area identified in the City of Temecula General Plan Final Environmental Impact Report. However, impacts can be mitigated by utilizing existing emergency response systems. Less than significant impact is anticipated as a result of this project because mitigation measures are in place for the site and general area of the site. 8.j. No Impact. The project site is not subject to inundation by sieche, tsunami, or mudfiow as these events are not known to happen in this region. No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project.

Physically divide an established community? X b. Conflict with applicable land use plan, policy, or~ X regulation of an agency with jurisdiction over the project (including, but not limited to the general plan, specific plan, local coastal program, or zoning ordinance) adopted for the purpose of avoiding or mitigation an environmental effect? c. Conflict with any applicable habitat conservation plan or X natural community conservation plan? Comments: No Impact. The project includes office and industrial buildings designed to accommodate manufacturing, warehousing and office uses within an industrial park containing similar uses. There is no established residential community on the site nor in the vicinity. Therefore, no impacts as a result of this project are anticipated. No Impact. The project is consistent with the City's General Plan Land Use Designation of BP (Business Park) and the zoning designation of LI (Light Industrial) which call for the development of well designed business and employment centers. Typical uses include light manufacturing, storage, industrial supply and wholesale businesses. The proposed development plan meets the intent of these designations. Impacts from all General Plan Land Use Designations were analyzed in the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for 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. These agencies were given the opportunity to comment on the project and their comments are made a part of the Conditions of Approval for the project. The project site has been previously graded and services have been extended to the area. As a result, the project is not anticipated to conflict with existing land uses. Less Than Significant Impact With Mitigation Incorporated. The project is located within the fee area for the Stephan's Kangaroo Rat (SKR) Long-Term Habitat Conservation Plan. All development within this fee area is required to pay a mitigation fee. This project will be required to pay a mitigation fee for the SKR. With this measure in place, the project is anticipated to have less than significant impacts. R:\D P\00-O367 MKI 81dgs\lnitial Study 00-0367.doc 10 10. MINERAL RESOURCES. Would the project: Less Than Potentially Significant With Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact incorporated Impact Impact a. Result in the loss of availability of a known mineral X resource that would be of value to the region and the residents of the state? b. Result in the loss of availability of a locally-important X mineral resource recovery site delineated on a local general plan, specific plan or other land use plan? Comments: 10.a.b. No Impact. The project will not result in the loss of available, known mineral resources or in the loss of an available, locally important mineral resource recovery site. The State Geologist has classified the City of Temecula a classification of MRZ-3a, containing areas of sedimentary deposits, which have the potential for supplying sand and gravel for concrete and crushed stone for aggregate. However, it has been determined that this area contains no deposits of significant economic value based upon available data in a report entitled Mineral Land Classification of the Temescal Valley Area, Riverside County., California, Special Report 165, prepared in accordance with the Surface Mining and Reclamation Act (SMARA) of 1975. No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 11. NOISE. Would the project result in: Less Than Potentially Significant With Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources ~mpact Incorporated Impact Impact a. Exposure of people to severe noise levels in excess of X standards established in the local general plan or noise ordinance, or applicable standards of other agencies? b. Exposure of persons to or generation of excessive X groundborne vibration or groundborne noise levels? c. A substantial permanent increase in ambient noise levels X in the project vicinity above levels existing without the proJect? d. A substantial temporary or periodic increase in ambient X noise levels in the project vicinity above levels existing without the proJect? e. For a project located within an airport land use plan or, X where such a plan has not been adopted, within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, would the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? f. For a project within the vicinity of a private airstrip, would X the project expose people residing or working in the project area to excessive noise levels? R:\D P\00-0367 MKI Bldgs\lnitiat Study 00-0367.doc 11 Comments: 11 .a.,d. Less Than Significant Impact. The project may expose people to severe noise levels during the development/construction phase (short term). 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 not long- term. Construction hours are regulated by the City Development Code, to which the applicant shall comply. Therefore noise as a result of construction will not be considered significant. Some of the proposed uses may generate interior machinery noise, which may make conversation difficult. However, it is anticipated that exterior noise levels will be no different than other adjacent industrial uses. In any event, the project's manufacturing operations must comply with the City Development Code with regard to noise. Any use which generates sounds that are or may be considered a nuisance or hazard to any adjacent property due to the intermittence, beat, frequency, or shrillness of the sounds, shall have the source of the noise muffled or otherwise controlled so that the noise is subdued to acceptable levels. Therefore, noise generated by the project is anticipated to be within industry standards, and impacts of this project are less than significant. 11.b.,c. Less Than Significant Impact. While industrial development will create noise levels greater than the currently vacant land, long-term noise generated by this project shall comply with the limits of the General Plan and Development Code standards. Less than significant impacts are anticipated. 11.d. Less Than Significant Impact. The project may result in temporary or periodic increases in ambient noise levels during construction. As mentioned in response 11.a. construction machinery is capable of producing noise in the range of 100+ DBA at 100 feet, which is considered annoying. However, this source of noise from construction of the project will be of short duration and therefore would not be considered significant. Furthermore, construction activity will comply with City ordinances regulating the hours of activity. A less than significant impact would be anticipated. 11.e.f. No Impact. This project is not within two miles of a public airport or public use airport, therefore, employees working in the project area will not be exposed to excessive noise levels generated by an airport. Consequently no impact is anticipated as a result of this project. 12. POPULATION AND HOUSING. Would the project: Less Than Potentially Significant With Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact Impact a. Induce substantial population growth in an area, either X directly (for example, by proposing new homes and businesses) or indirectly (for example, through extension of roads or other infrastructure)? b. Displace substantial numbers of existing housing, X necessitating the construction of replacement housing elsewhere? c. Displace substantial numbers of people, necessitating the X construction of replacement housing elsewhere? R:\D P\00-0367 MKI Bldgs\lnitial Study 00-0367.doc 12 Comments: 12.a. Less Than Significant Impact. 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 BP (Business Park) and Zoning Designation of LI (Light Industrial). The proposed industrial development will cause some people to relocate to, or within the Temecula area. However, it will not induce substantial growth beyond what is projected in the City's General Plan. Further, the project is anticipated to create jobs for existing local residents, which would contribute to the favorable balance of jobs to housing ratio for the City. 12.b.c. No Impact. The project will not displace substantial numbers of people or existing housing as the site is vacant properly zoned Light industrial (LI). Additionally, the project site is located within an existing industrial park which does not permit residential development. The project will neither displace housing or people, necessitating the construction of replacement housing. No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 13. PUBLIC SERVICES: Would the proposal have an effect upon, or result in a need for new or altered Government services in any of the following areas: Less Than PotentiallySignificant With Less Than SignificantMitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources ~mpact Incorporated Impact Impact a. Would the project result in substantial adverse physical X impacts associates with the provisions of new or physically altered governmental facilities, need for new or physically altered governmental facilities, the construction of which could cause significant environmental impacts, in order to maintain acceptable service ratios, response times or other performance objectives for any of the public services? b. Fire protection? X c. Police protection? X d. Schools? X e. Parks? X f. Other public facilities? X Comments: 13.a.,b.,c.,e. Less Than Significant Impact. The project will have a less than significant impact upon, or result in a need for new or altered tire, police, recreation or other public facilities. The project will incrementally increase the need for some services. However, the project will contribute its fair share through City Development Impact Fees to the maintenance or provision of services from these entities. Less than significant impacts are anticipated. 13.d. Less Than Significant Impact. 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 within or to the City. The cumulative effect from the project will be mitigated through the payment of applicable School Fees. Less than significant impacts are anticipated. R:\D P\00-0367 MKI Bldgs\lnitial Study 00-0367.doc 13 13.f. Less Than Significant llt. The project will have a less than sl~ficant impact upon, or result ina need for new or altered public facilities. The Rancho California Water District, in correspondence dated September 28, 2000, indicates that the project site is located within the boundaries of the District. Water and sewer service is available upon completion of financial arrangements. The Riverside Department of Environmental Health, in correspondence dated September 27, 2000, that their Department has no objections, and anticipates "Will Serve" letters will be provided to this project. Less than significant impacts are anticipated. t4. RECREATION. Would the project: Less Than Potentially Significant With Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact incorporated Impact Impact a. Would the project increase the use of existing neighborhood and regional parks or other recreational facilities such that substantial physical deterioration of the X facility would occur or be accelerated? b. Does the project include recreational facilities or require the construction or expansion of recreational facilities X which might have an adverse physical effect on the environment? Comments: 14.a.b. Less than Significant Impact. The project is not likely to have an impact in the demand for neighborhood or regional parks or other recreational facilities. The same is true for the quality or quantity of existing recreational resources or opportunities. The project may cause some employees to relocate from existing facilities elsewhere to the City of Temecula. However, due to the size of the project, the impact to recreational facilities is minimal. Furthermore, the proposed project is subject to Development Impact Fees, which contribute towards the provision of recreational facilities in the City. Impacts are anticipated to be less than significant as a result of this project. 15. TRANSPORTATION/TRAFFIC. Would the project: Less Than Potentially Significant With Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources Impact Incorporated Impact impact a. Cause an increase in traffic, which is substantial in X relation to the existing traffic load and capacity of the street system (i.e., result in a substantial increase in either the number of vehicle trips, the volume to capacity ratio on reads, or congestion at intersections? b. Exceed, either individually or cumulatively, a level of X service standard established by the county congestion management agency for designated roads or highways? c. Result in a change in air traffic patterns, including either X an increase in traffic levels or a change in location that results in substantial safety risks? R:\D P\00-0367 MK[ Bldgs\lnitial Study 00-0367.doc 15. TRANSPORTATION/TRAFFIC. Would the project: Less Than Potentially Significant With Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources ~r, pact Incorporated Impact impact d. Substantially increase hazards due to a design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous intersections) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment)? e. Result in inadequate emergency access? X f. Result in inadequate parking capacity? X g. Conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs X supporting alternative transportation (e.g., bus turnouts, bicycle racks? Comments: 15.a,b. Less Than Significant Impact. The project site is an inflll site in an existing business park, in which the uses proposed were anticipated. While more traffic will be generated by the development of the site, it is not expected to be any greater than anticipated by the General Plan Environmental Impact Report. Existing roadways fronting the site and in the surrounding vicinity are capable of handling the additional traffic that may be generated by the project. Therefore, less than significant impacts are anticipated. 15.c.d. No Impact. The proposed development of this property will not result in a change in air traffic patterns by increasing the traffic levels in the vicinity. The site is not within the French Valley Airport's flight overlay district. The design of the project will not pose a threat to the health, safety, and welfare of the people utilizing the roads in the vicinity of the project because there are no sharp curves or dangerous intersections proposed. No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 15.e. No Impact. The project will not result in inadequate emergency access or access to nearby uses. The project consists of office and industrial buildings for manufacturing and warehousing use in an existing industrial park. The project, as designed, complies with current City standards and has adequate emergency access. No impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 15.f. No Impact. The proposed development complies with the City's Development Code parking requirements for office, industrial and warehouse uses. The project is conditioned to update the project's parking analysis should the allocation of building square footages to these uses change. Therefore, no significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 15.g. No Impact. The project as proposed does not conflict with adopted policies, plans, or programs supporting alternative transportation. The project provides motorcycle and bicycle parking. As a consequence, the project supports alternative transportation, and no impact is anticipated. 16.

Have sufficient water supplies available to serve the X project from existing entitlements and resources, or are new or expanded entitlements needed? e. Result in a determination by the wastewater treatment X provider which serves or may serve the project that it has adequate capacity to serve the project's projected demand in addition to the provider's existing commitments? f. Be served by a landfill with sufficient permitted capacity to X accommodate the project's solid waste disposal needs? g. Comply with federal, state, and local statutes and X regulations related to solid waste? Comments: 16.a.,b., e. Les~ Than Significant Impact. The project will not exceed wastewater treatment requirements, require the construction of new treatment facilities, nor affect the capacity of treatment providers. The project will have an incremental effect upon existing systems. However, the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the City's General Plan states: "implementation of the proposed General Plan would not significantly impact wastewater services." Since the project is consistent with the City's General Plan, less than significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 16.c. No Impact. The amount of runoff from the project is not anticipated to be any greater than what was anticipated by construction of the site. Consequently construction of new storm water drainage facilities or expansion of existing facilities are not anticipated. 16.d. Less Than Significant Impact. The project will not significantly impact existing water supplies nor require expanded water entitlements. The project will have an incremental effect upon existing systems. 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. The Rancho California Water District, in correspondence dated September 28, 2000, indicates that the project site is located within the boundaries of the District. Water and sewer service is available upon completion of financial arrangements. Less than significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. 16.f.g. Less Than Significant Impact. The project will not result in a need for new landfill capacity. Any potential impacts from solid waster created by this development can be mitigated through participation in Source Reduction and Recycling Programs, which ara implemented by the City. Less than significant impacts are anticipated as a result of this project. R:\D P\00-0367 MI(I Bldgs\lnitial Study 00-0367.doc 16 ~ ~' 17. MANDATORY FINDINGS OF SIGNIFICANCE. Less Than Potentially Significant With Less Than Significant Mitigation Significant No Issues and Supporting Information Sources ~r, pact Incorporated Impact Impact a. Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality X of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population ' to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number of restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of the major periods of California history or prehistory? b. Does the project have impacts that are individually limited, but cumulatively considerable? ("Cumulatively X considerable" means that the incremental effects of a project are considerable when viewed in connection with the effects of past projects, the effects of other current projects, and the effects of probable future projects? c. Does the project have environmental effects which will X cause substantial adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? Comments: 17.a. No Impact. The project does not have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment on site or in the vicinity of the project. The site lies within a partially developed business/industrial park and has been rough graded to accommodate industrial development. The project will not substantially reduce the habitat of fish or wildlife because plants found on the site are limited to residential/urban/exotic non-native grassland, which is not particularly suited for protected species. No historic resources are anticipated to be impacted because the site is not identified as having the potential for resources, no significant resources have been found in the vicinity, and grading has already occurred on the site. 17.b. Less Than Significant Impact. The proposed development is consistent with the General Plan designation for the property, and as such, impacts generated by the proposed development are no greater than what is anticipated at buildout of the City. 17.c. Less Than Significant Impact With Mitigation Incorporated. The project was analyzed with regards to aesthetics, biological resources, land use, hazards, hydrologic and geologic events, in all aspects, the project has been designed or conditioned to reduce impacts with certain mitigation measures. With these measures in place, less than significant impacts are anticipated. A Mitigation Monitoring Program has been prepared to incorporate all mitigation measures imposed on this project. The Mitigation Monitoring Program accompanies this document. R:\D P\00-0367 MK[ B[dgs\lnitial Study 00-0367.doc 17 18. EARLIER ANALYSES.

A Development Review Committee (DRC) Meeting was held on April 13, 2000. A DRC comment letter was sent to the applicant on May 10, 2000. Revised plans were submitted to the City on June 22, 2000, August 9, 2000, September 11,2000, and October 23, 2000. The application was determined to be complete on November 14, 2000. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project consists of a 12,615 square foot tilt-up concrete speculative industrial building on a 0.92-acre vacant pad on Roick Drive. According to the applicant, the first tenant will probably be Quality Structures, Inc., a general contracting and framing contractor for industrial office and storage of supplies. Quality Structures will occupy all of the building and has nine operational employees who will occupy the 1800 square feet of office space.

The building site is on a prominent view location overlooking the Temecula Valley. However, the site design plan indicates that the primary entrance and area of human interaction will derive from the west side of the building, thus preventing the opportunity to realize the benefits of prominent eastward views. The applicant indicated that due to the contour constraints of the small site, the easier approach from the west side of the site for fire service vehicles, the ADA access requirements, and the need to avoid excessive grading and site improvement expenses, makes it prohibitive for the building to be sited with an east facing access. The plan does show an outdoor lunch area for employees on the east side of the proposed building that should create a pleasant break area with a panoramic valley view. Access Access to the site is off of a 24-foot concrete driveway entrance from the south side of Roick Drive, a 66 foot industrial collector street, approximately 200 feet to the west of Winchester Road. Employees, visitors and truck deliveries will all share the single access into the site. The front of the building leading to the office entrance has an 8% sloped disabled access ramp off the adjacent street sidewalk. The parking area is situated along the western and southern perimeter of the project site, parallel to the proposed building's west elevation. Two double loading areas with metal roll-up doors are evenly spaced near the front and rear of the west side of the building. Elevations The exterior building material is comprised of tan colored split face and v-grooved split face concrete masonry unit block. The front and rear entrances both feature a four-sided arched entryway with 16-inch diameter light tan sandblasted concrete columns. The east elevation features a 24 foot wide recessed arch with an indented square patterned interior surface, The top of the building's parapet wall is finished with a tan colored cornice around the building perimeter. Both the front and rear of the building offer storefront twin door entrances with narrow blue aluminum door frames. The building has several 5.5-feet x 4-feet blue aluminum framed fixed glass windows on all sides. Four ivory colored metal roll-up doors that serve the loading areas are positioned along the west side of the building. The proposed warehouse building height is 27 feet from ground level to the top of the perimeter cornice cap. The architect proposes three roof-mounted HVAC equipment in the center of the building along the west elevation, A 4-foot to 6,5-foot perimeter parapet wall above the building roofiine will ensure proper visual screening of the HVAC equipment. R:\D P~00-0094 Regency\PC staff report final draft.doc 3 Landscaping The project site is comprised of 11,452 square feet of landscaped area (29% of the overall site), which exceeds the minimum coverage requirements per the City Development Code. The proposed landscape plan includes 44 trees of various species of both 15 gallon and 24-inch box size. Groundcover includes a large variety of both 1 and 5-gallon shrubs, hydroseed, wood mulch and yellow gazania evenly distributed around the building and project site perimeters. A landscape setback ranging from 25 feet to 5 feet encircles the project site perimeter, which includes 24-inch box size Fern Pine and Red Crepe Myrtle trees, shrubs and groundcover. The west-facing portion of the site has a steep slope between the property line and the parking area that will be landscaped with a variety of trees, shrubs and groundcover. Two ten-foot wide trash enclosures are located on the west side of the parking area, which are surrounded by double-sided landscape fingers containing several shade trees and shrubs. A third landscape finger is located in the rear of the parking area. Landscaping along the Roick Drive project frontage is enhanced with 15- gallon London Plane trees and 24-inch box size Red Crepe Myrtle trees, as well as a variety of shrubs and groundcover to provide greater focus and aesthetic appeal. Three landscape planters each featuring a 24-inch box size Red Crepe Myrtle tree and various shrubs are evenly positioned in front of the two loading areas and warehouse area along the west side of the building. The City's Landscape Architect consultant supports the landscape plan. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION Staff has reviewed the application and recommends that a Categorical Exemption, in accordance with Section 15332 of the California Environmental Quality Act as a Class 32 In-Fill Development project be approved. The proposed development is within the City limits on a 0.92-acre site, and is substantially surrounded by developed and vacant urban industrial uses. The project site has no value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species. Approval of the project will not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air quality or water quality. The project site is already served by all required utilities and public services. GENERAL PLAN AND ZONING CONSISTENCY The BP Business Park General Plan designation views industrial warehouse buildings as a typical land use. The (LI) Light Industrial zoning code designation lists office/manufacturing/warehouse uses as a permitted land use with the approval of a development plan pursuant to Chapter 17.08 of the Development Code. The proposed project as conditioned is consistent with the policies contained in the General Plan and with the requirements of the Development Code and City Design Guidelines. SUMMARY/CONCLUSIONS Staff recommends that the Commission approve Planning Application 00-0094 (Development Plan) as designed and conditioned because it is a permitted use within the zone and complies with applicable development standards and regulations. R:\D P\00~0094 Regency\PC staff report final draft.doc 4 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 General Plan designation on the property is (BP) Business Park, which permits, with the approval of a Development Plan, the office/manufacturing/warehouse uses proposed by the project. The overall development of the land is designed for the protection of the public health, safety and general welfare.

A Development Review Committee meeting was held on June 22, 2000. The applicant has cooperated with staff in revising the Site Plan a number of times. Compromises have been made by both sides to make the project both consistent with the Regional Center Specific Plan and a viable project to construct and operate. The Specific Plan requires a pedestrian oriented design for this project, refer to Attachment 2 for the Specific Plan Standards. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant is proposing a Development Plan to construct an 116,375 square foot retail center known as BeI-Villaggio. The site is surrounded by Margarita Road, the Mall Loop Road, an existing drainage channel, the Mall Access Link Road that connects the Mall Loop Road to Overland Drive (adjacent to Costco), and the mall entrance from Margarita Road which is the extension of North General Kearny Road. An existing EMWD well site, the drainage channel, and the limited width of the site provide some development constraints on the site. R:~D P\00-0213 Margarita Village SC~PC Staff report.doc 2 The project has four basic building clusters: 2. 3. 4. Buildings A, B, and C are designed around an approximately 6,000 square foot pedestrian plaza. Buildings D, E, F, and J are designed around a roundabout. Buildings G, H, I, and K are designed around an approximately 2,500 square-foot pedestrian plaza. Buildings L, M, N, and O are designed as a conventional strip center development. These four clusters will be built in three phases. Phase I includes Buildings L, M, N, and O, all associated parking and landscaping. It also includes the drive aisle between Building L and Building I along with the landscaping along this drive aisle. Phase II includes Buildings F, G, H, I, and J, all associated parking and landscaping. It also includes the drive aisle between Building L and Building E along with the landscaping along this drive aisle. Phase III includes buildings A, B, C, D, and E, and all associated parking and landscaping. ANALYSIS Site Design As mentioned earlier, the site is designed with four building clusters. Each cluster has unique design features, but at the same time, is designed as part of the entire project with consistent architecture, landscaping, and signage. The project is further unified by the pedestrian plazas which are connected to each other and to the walkways surrounding the site. Each of the four building clusters is further connected to the perimeter sidewalks by walkways. A uniform lighting scheme further provides a cohesive design. Vehicular Access and Circulation Access is provided to the site from seven points: One (1) right-in and right-out from Margarita Road · Two (2) from the Mall Loop Road · Three (3) from the Mall Access Link Road which connects the Mall Loop Road to Overland Drive (adjacent to Costco) · One (1) right-in and right-out from the mall entrance from Margarita Road which is the extension of North General Kearny Road The internal circulation is less than desirable and may cause some bottlenecks within the site. Therefore, staff has conditioned the project to eliminate these bottlenecks and the potential traffic conflict points, Condition No. 21. Parking The Specific Plan requires 5 spaces per 1000 square feet of retail space including restaurant uses. Six hundred ninety seven (697) spaces are provided where 582 spaces are required. The site is approximately 20% over parked. R:',D P~00-02t3 Margarita Village SC~°C Staff report.doc 3 Pedestrian Plazas and Circulation Careful attention has been made to make this project pedestrian odented as required by the Specific Plan. This task has been accomplished by a web of pedestrian walk'ways that connect buildings and pedestrian plazas with each other and with the existing and proposed walkways within the mall project. These walkways are defined and highlighted by their decorative concrete texture through the parking lot and the landscape planters. In addition, pedestrian level lighting will be provided within the pedestrian plazas and the walkways. Pedestrian Plazas Two major pedestrian plazas and several minor plazas are proposed as a part of this project. The plaza adjacent to Building K is approximately 2,500 square feet. The second major plaza is adjacent to Buildings A, B, and C at approximately 6,000 square feet. Additional detail including benches, trash receptacles, shade structures, and pedestrian level lighting will be provided for the pedestrian plazas. These pedestrian areas will be connected to each other and to the other sidewalks on the perimeter of the project by walkways. Pedestrian Circulation Walkways Connectin.q the Buildin.qs A comprehensive walkway system connects the four building clusters together by three visually and/or physically defined walkway systems. One minor connectior~ is between Buildings L and I. This connection is approximately 28' wide and is visually defined by decorative concrete. The other two pedestrian connections between the building clusters are more visually and physically defined. In addition to the decorative concrete, the connection between Building K and J is visually and physically defined by a 6" high curb and a 42" high wrought-iron fence on one side and landscaping on the other along with pedestrian level lighting. Similarly, in addition to the decorative concrete, the connection between Buildings D and C is visually and physically defined by landscaping and pedestrian level lighting. On Site Pedestrian Circulation All four clusters of buildings will be connected to all the project perimeter sidewalks by the following six (6) connections: · A connection from Building N to Building O through landscape planters and from Building O to the sidewalk on Mall Loop Road. · A connection from Building I through the landscape planter to the Mall Loop Road. · A connection from Building E through the landscape planter to the Mall Loop Road. · A connection from Building A to the Mall Loop Road through the landscape planter. · A connection from Building D or Building F through the 32' LDZ to the Margarita Road sidewalk. · A connection from the pedestrian plaza between Buildings G and Building F through the 32' LDZ to the Margarita Road sidewalk. R:~D P~00-0213 Margarita Village SC'~PC Staff repo[t.doc 4 Perimeter Sidewalks Three project perimeter sidewalks are proposed along N. General Kearny Road, the Mall Loop Road, and the Mall Access Link Road. In addition, there is an existing sidewalk along Margarita Road. The sidewalk along N. General Kearny Road will match the existing sidewalk on the opposite side of this road which is adjacent to the curb. The existing portions of Mall Loop Road have a 5' sidewalk adjacent to the curb which is separated by a 10' landscape planter from the parking areas. Existing light poles adjacent to the Mall Loop Road along the project boundary make this design undesirable. The project is conditioned to provide a 5' sidewalk separated from the curb with a 5' planter and separated from the parking lot with another 5' planter. If desired by the Planning Commission, a meandering 5' sidewalk through a15' area surrounded by landscaping is also a possible design solution. Pedestrian Connections to Theaters and the Future Mall Pad The Sidewalk Plan for the mall includes two sidewalks that are adjacent to this site. The sidewalk connecting the Mall Loop Road to the theaters is already built, The second sidewalk will be built with the future phase of the mall. This project is designed to connect to both of these sidewalks to complete the pedestrian linkages envisioned in the Specific Plan, Staff is confident that this comprehensive pedestrian system meets the intent of the Specific Plan by making this development a pedestrian oriented project. However, a pedestrian connection is desired over the wash connecting this retail center with the proposed offices and the hotel on the other side of the wash. There is no requirement for this connection in the Specific Plan. In fact, the Specific Plan did not contemplate this at grade wash; therefore, it did not provide staff with the language necessary to require this connection. Staff has discussed this connection with the applicant; however, the applicant is not prepared to make a financial commitment to this connection. Landscapin.q The project's landscaping will be consistent with the existing landscaping of the retail area surrounding the Mall Loop Road. The landscape plan needs to be modified to provide the detail necessary to ensure this consistency. These modifications are specified in the Conditions of Approval. More importantly, the Conditions of Approval will ensure a cohesive design theme that will further enhance this project. Staff is recommending the following enhancements to the project through the Conditions of Approval: Main Entries The project has been conditioned to enhance both entries from the Mall Loop Road by adding a mw of trees which lead the eye into the project as one enters the site from these drive aisles. Staff envisions these trees to be medium size upright trees. Entry Monuments The two existing entry monument landscaping features on both corners of N. General Keamy Road are approximately 40' deep. This project will further enhance its corner on Margarita and N. General Kearney Road by increasing it to 75'. In the future, staff will ensure that the project on the opposite side of N. General Kearny Road will make similar enhancement to its corner. R:'~D P\00-0213 Margarita Village SC'~PC Staff report.doc 5 Screening the Rear of Buildings from Margarita Road Additional architectural features have been added to the rear of Buildings D, F, G, H, and I to present an acceptable rear fa(;ade to Margarita Road. No roll-up doora are proposed in the rear of these buildings. The building pads along Margarita Road are generally proposed approximately 3' higher than Margarita Road which should assist in screening the rear of the buildings and the loading doors. However, Margarita Road's elevation rises as it approaches N. General Kearny Road. Therefore, staff is recommending adding a 3' high berm or wall, where a berm is not feasible, plus landscaping along Margarita Road. EMWD Well Site The existing EMWD well site provides an aesthetically unpleasing element within the Specific Plan area. This project has been conditioned to provide additional landscaping to effectively screen this area from its surroundings. Landscaping Adjacent to Buildings The proposed landscaping adjacent to the buildings has been deemed inadequate by staff and the City's landscape architect. The Conditions of Approval require this project to provide additional planters adjacent to the buildings which provide enough space for medium size upright trees. Staff and City's landscape architect will determine the number, the location, and the plant palette for this additional landscaping. Plant Sizes The Specific Plan does not provide minimum sizes for the plants. However, this project has been conditioned to provide minimum 24" box trees, minimum 5-gallon shrubs, minimum of 15-gallon vines, flat and one-gallon ground cover. Architecture Elevations have been provided for all the buildings with the exception of Building A, B, and C. An Administrative Development Plan will be required for approving the final design of these buildings. The proposed elevations include articulation and relief. The result will be an architecturally pleasing project which will be consistent with the rest of the center, but at the same time, will stand out as an individual project. Si.qna,qe The applicant has submitted a Sign Program that will be approved as part of this project. The Sign Program proposes one center identification sign at the corner of Margarita and N. General Kearney Road. In addition, four multi-tenant monument signs are proposed-one for each frontage. In addition, all wall sign areas have been identified on the buildings. All buildings include signage in the rear including those along Margarita Road. The variety and the quality of the proposed signage should add to the over all quality of the project.

Descriptive Summary Planning Area 1, as depicted in Figure 12A, consists of 71.97 gross acres, devoted primarily to mixed uses including retail, office, hotel, institutional, and residential uses. The commercial, office, and institutional development within this planning area will serve the needs of area residents, while maintaining compatibility with a residential environment. A maximum of 300 multi-family dwelling units shall be permitted in Planning Area 1. These dwellings may either be constructed as free-standing structures or integrated into the same building with office and commercial uses. 1) Mixture of Uses It is the intent of the mixed use development in Planning Area 1 of the Temecula Regional Center to allow for a mixture of commercial/office/institutional and residential uses. The mixed use development is designed to encourage active street frontages and a comfortable, human-scaled environment that creates a fully functioning shopping street complex (i.e., a "Main Street"). This Main Street will be integrated into the overall mixed use development in Planning Area 1 and will be connected by both streets and pedestrian walkways to the planned retail development in Planning Area 2. The Main Street will be an easy and quick walk away from offices and residences in the Temeeula Regional Center, allowing both workers and residents to take advantage of the convenient, locally available shopping opportunities. A conceptual illustrative site plan depicting the Main Street concept in Planning Area 1 is shown in Figure 12B. A detailed view of the Main Street is illustrated in Figure 12C. While retail deveiopment may be the primary land use in Planning Area 1, it is envisioned ' that this planning area will also include additional employment opportunities such as offices and personal service shops and businesses. Institutional and hotel uses may be integrated physically into mixed use structures or constructed as separate buildings. Residential uses may be integrated into the same structure as non-residential uses. Residential uses and entries should constitute not more than 30% of the ground floor of any of these buildings. In areas which do not directly face onto the shopping street(s), freestanding residential buildings may be constructed. It is also anticipated that some free- standing residential structures will also be erected in Planning Area 1. 111-32 ~u ~6 focal point MAIN STREET CONCEPT (DETAIL) storefront areas pedestrian orientation TEMECULA REGIONAL CENTER K.C.D.C. 27555 Ynez Road, Suite 202, Temecula, Ca. 92591 1II-35 FIGURE 12C 2) In planning for mixed use development, consideration shall be given to joint use of parking, common areas, landscaping, specific types of uses, housing types and sizes of units, and overall architec- tural design. Planning Area 1 development is pro posed as a logical extension of the central commercial core activity in planning Area 2, and a transition be- tween Planning Area 2 and the adja- cent residential property to the east. Institutional uses to be encouraged within Planning Area I include local, state or federal level services (i.e., postal service, economic development, social service, library, museum, etc.), if there is a need or demand for such uses. Pedestrian connection to adjacent Tcmecula Regional Center uses and to nearby Building Scale and Planning Area Design Development in Planning Area 1 should not resemble a typical suburban shopping center or strip commercial plaza. The retail and office uses in Planning Area 1 may be arranged in a "U"-shaped configuration around a.~~ public green similar to traditional pub- E lic greens, or in a linear fashion to form a "Main Street" with shops and offices oriented directly onto the street. Internal roadway circulation (which may be implemented by a perimeter ring road or other similar roadway configuration) will be provided around the Main Street area to facilitate traffic flow in and through Planning Area 1. The internal roadway system will dis- tribute traffic to and from principal access points on the site 4 - lane capacity (typ.) Conceptual Internal Roadway UI-36 3) rather than on nearby arterial streets. This ring mad may also connect Planning Area 1 with Planning Area 2. L'nnited on-street parking may be provided on portions of the internal roadway system, but in areas where the roadways cross parking areas, no on-street parking shall be allowed. The primary internal access roadway system will most likely be four lanes in width. The Main Street, on the other hand, will be limited to two through lanes (one in each direction) in order to foster a pedestrian scale. Individual buildings within Planning Area 1 may range in height up to 120 feet, provided that building setbacks and configurations for all structures in excess of 50 feet in height shall be determined by the City during Development Plan Review to ensure that adequate light access and air is available to adjacent structures. Typically, buildings should maintain a pedestrian scale adjacent to the shopping street. For example, the portion(s) of a building that abuts a public street may be two or three stories in height. Additional building stories could progressively step back as the building height and number of stories increases. Not only will such architectural design permit light and air access to surrounding areas and ensure a pedestrian scale near ground level, but the massiveness of the building will be substantially reduced. Separate building entrances shall be required for commercial/office/institutional and residential uses when occupying the same structure; provided that this provision does not preclude internal connections between residential and non-residential uses. Intensification In order for the concept of a "Main Street" to truly function, development of a certain density and intensity is necessary. Greater intensification of land use in this planning area provides the opportunity for innovative architectural design and landscap'mg. The' higher concentrations of people will also increase the feasibility of mass transit to serve the site. Residential uses will be limited to free-standing buildings containing single family attached or multi-family homes or vertically integrated buildings containing residential units over office and/or commercial uses. Because of the increased residential density in this area, it is important that recreational amenities be provided for residents. Freestanding residential structures, in particular, should contain recreational facilities such as spas, swimming pools, basketball courts, and weight rooms. These facilities may be provided within buildings or, if provided outside, may be arranged in interior courtyards or in walled-in enclosures in interior parking lots. Special consideration should be given to locating facilities with respect to the noise, activity, and light that they will generate. ~I-37 f~estanding multi-family with internalized parking commcrcial/officrdinstitutlonal uses (typ) with optional residential on upper story 4) 5) Freestanding Residential Buildings & Vertically Integrated Buildings (Residential Over Commercial/Office Uses) with Recreational Facilities Parking Design Limited on-street parking may be provided in Planning Area 1, particularly along the "Main Street." On-street parking spaces are intended for people running errands and are "short-term" spaces. These spaces may be metered to discourage people from parking in them for longer than an hour or two. Parking lots should be placed in the interior of individual parcels so that the appearance of the development from the street is of buildings and plazas, not parking lots (see Figure 12B). These interior parking lots are intended for "long term" parking. The parking facilities should not be the dominant visual image of the project. Vast expanses of paving for parking, without the visual relief of landscaping, are highly discouraged. Joint-parking arrangements between commercial, office, and institutional uses are encouraged to minimize the number of parking spaces required to serve the development and avoid proliferation of parking lots. In addition, completely separate parking areas should be provided for residences. Incentives for Innovative Design Up to 300 multi-family dwellings can be erected in this planning area to provide housing opportunities for employees of the various businesses within the Temecula Regional Center Specific Plan. Conversely, the planned commercial uses will enable project residents to do their shopping by foot. The mixture of residential and non-residential land uses are designed to decrease the traffic generated by project development. 111-38 6) The pedestrian scale of the project will be enhanced by plazas, courtyards, sidewalk cafes, public mini-parks, pedestrian easements, and overall project landscaping. Pedestrian linkages will be provided between uses within Planning Area 1 and between Planning Area 1 and the larger retail uses in Planning Area 2. Retail and service commercial uses could predominate on the fa'st floor of the buildings, with offices and/or residential uses concentrated on the upper floors or behind the commercial uses. Vertically-integrated buildings offer the opportunity to provide affordable housing. Pedestrian-Oriented Design The small size of Planning Area 1 will encourage pedestrian movement between uses, while de-emphasizing automobile use. Retail uses are encouraged on street level to provided streetscape contiguity and visual interest for pedestrians. Continuous expanses of blank walls or sharp unbroken vertical surfaces create an uncomfortable atmosphere for the pedestrian. The mixed use area should incorporate the following elements of good pedestrian-oriented design: Pedestrian Circulation: Link interior parking areas and lots to city streets, city- wide open spaces (e.g., plazas, mini-parks, pedestrian malls, etc.) and the City's trail system to facilitate travel by walking, biking, or other non-motorized means. Building Facades: The design of building facades, particularly those facades that face public streets, should be architecturally interesting and in scale with the pedestrian. Storefront windows are encouraged in retail shops and, in most cases, should begin within 18" to 24" of the pavement. Typically, storefront windows help to entice customers into stores, stimulate visual interest, create "defensible space" by enhancing public views of store interiors and streets, and establish a predictable rhytlun for passers-by. The scale and width of each storefront should be limited to establish an intimate scale that is more conducive to the pedestrian and cyclist than to the automobile. In general, storefront widths should relate to a human scale. Where storefronts must be large to accommodate specific uses, the building facades could be articulated with windows, insets, pillars, columns, arcades or other decorative architectural features to maintain the overall intimacy of the shopping street. Signage: A coordinated signage plan for development can facilitate pedestrian and vehicular movement throughout the planning area, without "visually assaulting" the senses. Signage should be designed at a scale that is not overpowering from the pedestrian's perspective. For example, small signs with a unique texture, shape, or interesting features can be more effective than large, massive, or glaring signs. This Temecula Regional Center Zoning Ordinance 111-39 7) 8) contains comprehensive signage criteria for uses within Planning Area 1 (see Section III.CA. in this Specific Plan). Streetscape Design: To encourage human activity and movement, streets should be designed with the pedestrian in mind. Continuity in landscape design, placement of street furniture, sitting areas, covered arcades for shelter against the sun and inclement weather, lighting, and paving patterns all contribute to creating a rich, functional, and aesthetically pleasing environment for pedestrians. Pedestrian Plazas: All areas of Planning Area 1, and the Main Street in particular, should be designed with pedestrian gathering spots and should include plazas and pocket parks for resting, eating, conversing, and people watching. Pedestrian plazas that are effectively placed within retail and office districts can be pleasant spaces for resting or having lunch between shopping trips or errands. Placement of pedestrian plazas must be carefully planned to assure their most effective use. For this reason, consideration must be given to the location of plazas relative to the pedestrian circulation patterns, sunlight conditions, wind patterns, and the selection of building and landscape materials. Organization of Activities: The most important element in creating viable pedestrian spaces has little to do with the actual physical design of the space; if a space is to be conducive to pedestrian activity, there must be opportunities for pedestrian events and activities. Therefore, efforts to planning and organizing festivals, events, special sidewalk sales, entertainment, and cultural displays should be made to help create desired pedestrian activity. Private marketing efforts should be encouraged to promote these types of community events. Siena~e This Specific Plan includes a comprehensive signage program for the mixed use development. The program includes retail commercial entry monumentation, building identification signage, marquee signage, and directional signage. Although the signage criteria contained in the Zoning Ordinance in this Specific Plan includes maximum permitted sign sizes, the individual sign that identifies a given use should be consistent with the scale and mass of the building on which it is located or which it identifies. Specific signage materials should be uniform throughout each individual development within Planning Area 1. Transit Alternatives/Options One of the primary objectives of establishing mixed use development within the Temecula Regional Center Specific Plan is the creation of a density threshold and a mixture of uses that is capable of supporting transit alternatives to the automobile. Bus turnouts shall be provided at appropriate locations within Planning Area l, subject to approval by the City 111-40 9) Please ¢. l) of Temecula and, if necessary, the Riverside Transit Agency. Additional transit corridor right-of-way adjacent to Winchester Road on the western edge of the planning area will allow space for development of a mass transit system (e.g., light rail, etc.) should such a system ever be constructed. Center/Main Street Development Area The Village Center/Main Street concept shall apply to between 10 to 15 acres within Planning Area 1. Blocks within the Main Street area shall be defined by a public street grid system. The remainder of the planning area could be developed in a conventional fashion pursuant to market demand if a continuation of this concept is determined to be infeasible by the City. Land Use Development Standards refer to the Zoning Ordinance in Section III.C of this Specific Plan. Planning Standards In compliance with the goals and policies of the City's General Plan, Village Center Overlay and Land Use Element Goal 5 - Policies 5.5 through 5.10, it is important to create a quality environment which establishes a sense of place through careful consideration and integration of the following design elements: a) b) c) d) e) f) g) h) Pedestrian orientation. Pedestrian linkage. Narrow streets and driveways with pedestrian paseos and wide sidewalks. Features such as paseos, arcades, plazas, courtyards, squares, galleries and outdoor cafes to encourage gathering. Gathering places such as pavilions, parks and bandstands. Festivals, entertainment, street vendors, outdoor markets and other special events should be encouraged. Incorporation of fountains and water bodies. Unique architectural and landscape architectural themes for identity. Careful parking orientation. m-41 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) It is important to note that not all uses allowed in Planning Area 1 are necessarily expected to occur. For this mason, some of the above design features may not be appropriate nor economically feasible. For this reason, only the concept of a "Main Street" is discussed in depth above. Additional options for possible development in Planning Area 1 are discussed in Section IV, Design Guidelines, in this Specific Plan. Access into Planning Area 1 will be provided from Margarita Road, Overland Drive, and Winchester Road. One (1) minor entry crossing is proposed through the Winchester Road transportation corridor into Planning Area 1. This minor crossing would provide right-tom-only access into this Mixed Use Planning Area (see Figure 12A). This proposal shall comply with the current oI I emecula anu ~.axuans as tu uA,, Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City ............ ~ location and spacing of m/nor access points along Winchester Road. Special roadway landscape treatments, as those depicted in Figures 14, 18, and 20, Landscape Architecture Guidelines (Sec.

Major Entry Monumentation as depicted in Figure 23, Landscape Architectural Guidelines, shall be provided at the intersections of Winchester Road and Margarita Road, and Margarita Road and Overland Drive, and along Margarita Road and Winchester Road. Minor Entry Monumentation, as depicted in Figure 25, Landscape Architectural Guidelines, shall be provided along Winchester Road, Margarita Road, and Overland Drive. Please refer to Sec.
