A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LAKE
ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING FINDINGS THAT THE PROJECT
IDENTIFIED AS RECLAMATION PLAN NO. 2008 -01 IS EXEMPT FROM THE
MULTI- SPECIES HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN (MSHCP)
WHEREAS, Maruhachi Ceramics of America, Inc. (MCA), has submitted an
application for Reclamation Plan 2008 -01, generally located on the east side of the 1 -15
Freeway between Nichols Road and Lake Street and commonly identifiable as APNs
390 - 210 -014, and -019 (the "Project "); and
WHEREAS, the Project site is owned by MCA, Inc. and is within the Murdock
Alberhill Ranch Specific Plan area. It has been determined by the City of Lake Elsinore
and the Riverside Conservation Authority that the project site maintains a vested right to
mine and is therefore exempt from the requirements of the MSHCP; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Cal. Pub. Res.
Code §§ 21000 et seq.: "CEQA ") and the CEQA Guidelines (14 C.C.R. §§ 15000 et
seq.), Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2008 -08 and the corresponding Mitigation
Monitoring and Reporting Program have been prepared to mitigate environmental
impacts resulting from the Project to a level of insignificance; and
WHEREAS, public notice of the Project has been given, and the Planning
Commission has considered evidence presented by the Community Development
Department and other interested parties at a public hearing held with respect to this
item on October 18, 2011 and January 17, 2012.
NOW THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LAKE
ELSINORE DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The Planning Commission acknowledges the vested right to mine
the identified site and therefore exempts the Project from the requirements of the
MSHCP. Because the Project is exempt from the MSCHP, the Planning Commission
takes no further MSHCP action with regard to this Project.
SECTION 2. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 17 day of January 2012, by the
following vote:
