TO: FROM: DATE: PROJECT TITLE: APPLICANT: Project Request REPORT TO PLANNING COMMISSION HONORABLE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION ROLFE M. PREISENDANZ, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AUGUST 19, 2008 UNIFORM SIGN PROGRAM NO. 2008-03 (TREVI LANES) MICHEL KNIGHT, 32170 MISSION TRAIL, LAKE ELSINORE, CA 92530 The applicant requests approval of a Uniform Sign Program for the existing "Trevi Lanes" entertainment facility located at 32250 Mission Trail (APN: 365- 040 -024). The uniform sign program will include the building mounted signage and one (1) existing freestanding identification sign. The project site is located within the C -2 (General Commercial District) Zoning district and has a General Plan designation of General Commercial. Project review is pursuant to Chapter 17.94 (Signs- Advertising Structures) of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code (LEMC). Background The subject building and property was developed in 1989 and was occupied by a K Mart store until 1997. The building remained vacant until 2007, at which time the "Trevi" Bowling and Entertainment Center began operating from the building. Subsequent Conditional Use Permit approvals for off - premise beer and wine, outdoor seating, video arcades, and live entertainment have been obtained by the applicant. Existing wall signs were installed without approvals. The application for Uniform Sign Program No. 2008 -03 is necessary in order for the applicant to satisfy a condition of approval requiring Planning Commission review and �-� approval for a Uniform Sign Program for the Trevi site. P.^ I f 1 Report to Planning Commission August 19, 2008 Uniform Sign Program No. 2008 -03 (Trevi) Project Description Uniform Sign Program No. 2008 -03 The proposed Uniform Sign Program for the Trevi Entertainment Center will include building mounted signs as well as one (1) existing freestanding sign and associated "face" change. The proposed signs are as follows: EXISTING FREESTANDING (DETACHED) SIGNS PROPOSED BUILDING MOUNTED (WALL) SIGNS "Illusions" 18 square feet "The Carrot" 35 square feet "Bar & Restaurant" 16 square feet "Trevi" 15 square feet "Entertainment Center" 22.5 square feet "Trevi Lanes" 36 square feet Building mounted signs will be constructed of aluminum faced channel letters with halo illumination. This will assist in providing a soft radius at the rear of the sign. It should be noted that any proposed corporate logos or branding will be constructed of the same material and will include "halo" lighting. The proposed wall signs vary in size from 15 square feet to 36 square feet. Existin_g Freestanding Sign The sign program is proposing to include the existing freestanding sign and "face" change that is located within the front landscape area along Mission Trail. The existing freestanding sign is approximately 25 feet in height and has an overall width of approximately 12 feet at its widest point. The freestanding sign incorporates a stucco finish that matches the existing Trevi building. The sign contains a single panel (38.5 square AGENDA ITEM PAGE - OF 11r **./ -Report to Planning Commission August 19, 2008 Uniform Sign Program No. 2008 -03 (Trevi) feet) that contains a 'Trevi Zone" logo. The freestanding sign also includes the site address and channel letters indicating "Camelot Center." Staff has added a condition of approval requiring removal of the "Camelot Center" text from the freestanding sign. Analysis Staff has reviewed the proposed Uniform Sign Program and found that the proposed project will meet minimum requirements of Chapter 17.94 (Signs— Advertising Structures) of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code (LEMC); including but not limited to; maximum sign area, maximum sign height and length, and freestanding sign setbacks. Environmental Determination Staff determined that the Project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (Cal. Pub. Res. Code §§ 21000 et seq.: "CEQA ") and the CEQA Guidelines (14 C.C.R. §§ 15000 et seq.) pursuant to a class 11(a) exemption for accessory structures since the Project involves construction of on- premise signs. (14 C.C.R. § 15311(a)). This is necessary because the Trevi Entertainment Center is an existing building and no Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSCHP) resolution was deemed necessary. Recommendation Waive further reading and adopt Resolution No. 2008- approving Uniform Sign Program No. 2008 -03; based on the Findings, Exhibits, and proposed Conditions of Approval.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1. The Planning Commission has considered the Uniform Sign Program prior to taking action on the application. The Planning Commission hereby -^ finds and determines that the Uniform Sign Program conforms to all requirements set forth in Chapter 17.94 of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code. SECTION 2. The California Legislature has determined that certain classes of projects do not have a significant effect on the environment and are therefore exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (Cal. Pub. Res. Code §§ 21000 et seq.: "CEQA ") and the State Guidelines for Implementation of CEQA (14 C.C.R. §§ 15000 et seq.: the "CEQA Guidelines "). A Class 11 exemption exists for: "Construction or replacement of minor structures accessory to (appurtenant to) existing commercial, industrial, or institutional facilities, including but not limited to: (a) On- premise signs; (b) Small parking lots; (c) Placement of seasonal or temporary use items . . . in generally the same locations from time to time in publicly owned parks, stadiums, or other facilities designed for public use." The Uniform Sign Program qualifies for a Class 11 exemption because it involves the construction of on- premise signs that are appurtenant to an existing commercial facility; the Trevi Entertainment Center. Therefore, the Planning Commission hereby finds and s-. determines that the Uniform Sign Program is exempt from CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines. AGENDA ITEI'A 140. PAGE A5 II PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION 2008 - PAGE2OF3 SECTION 3. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning law and the City of Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, the Planning Commission makes the following findings for the approval of the Uniform Sign Program: 1. The project, as approved, will comply with the goals and objectives of the General Plan and the Zoning District in which the project is located. The Uniform Sign Program complies with the goals and objectives of the General Commercial (GC) General Plan Land Use designation and the General Commercial (GC) Zoning District in which the Trevi Entertainment Center is located. The Uniform Sign Program will assist in achieving the development of a well- balanced and functional mix of residential, commercial, industrial, open space, recreational and institutional land uses, thereby diversifying Lake Elsinore's economic base. Moreover, the Uniform Sign Program will facilitate the efficient and orderly use of signs for the purpose of attracting new and returning customers to participating businesses. 2. The project complies with the design directives contained in Section 17.82.060 and all other applicable provisions of the Municipal Code. The Uniform Sign Program for the Trevi Entertainment Center is appropriate to the site and surrounding developments in that the Uniform Sign Program has been designed in consideration of the size and shape of the property, thereby creating interest and varying vistas as a person moves along the street. Further, the Uniform Sign Program will complement the quality of existing development and will create a visually pleasing, non - detractive relationship between the proposed and existing projects in that the architectural design, color and materials and site design evidence a concern for quality and originality. 3. Subject to the attached conditions of approval, the proposed project is not anticipated to result in any significant adverse environmental impacts. The Uniform Sign Program was reviewed and conditioned by all applicable City departments to ensure that the Uniform Sign Program blends into existing development, creates the least amount of disturbance, and does not negatively impact the residents or businesses of Lake Elsinore. The Uniform Sign Program will not result in any significant adverse environmental impacts. `"90 AGENDA ITEM No. PAGE � of �— PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION 2008- PAGE 3 OF 3 4.
