general plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and
regulations as set forth herein below.

for the approval of Commercial Design Review 2012 -08:
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 Project complies with the goals and objectives of the General Plan because
it will assist in achieving the development of a well balanced and functional mix of
residential, commercial, industrial, open space, recreational, and institutional land
uses. The Project will serve to greater diversify and expand Lake Elsinore's
economic base.
2. The Project complies with the design directives contained in the General Plan
and all other applicable provisions of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code.

retail shell building has been designed in consideration of the size and shape of
the property. Sufficient setbacks and enhanced onsite landscaping have been
provided thereby creating interest and varying vistas as a person moves along
abutting streets and within the center. In addition, safe and efficient circulation
has been achieved onsite.
The Project will complement the quality of existing development and will create a
visually pleasing, non - detractive relationship between the proposed development
and existing projects through the use of architectural design that is similar to
existing buildings in the shopping center. A variety of materials and colors are
proposed including architectural stone accents and earth tone colors that blend
with surrounding developments and provide evidence of a concern for quality and
originality.
3. Subject to the attached conditions of approval, the Project is not anticipated to
result in any significant adverse environmental impacts.
Notwithstanding the fact that the Project is exempt from CEQA provisions
pursuant to a Class 32 exemption, the Project was reviewed and conditioned by
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2012 -38

development, creates the least amount of disturbance, and does not negatively
impact the residents or businesses of Lake Elsinore. The Project will not have a
significant effect on the environment.
4. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to Chapter 17.184.070 of the Municipal
Code, including guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions, have
