Specific Plan No. 2013 -01, Amendment No. 4 to the Lake Elsinore Outlet

PAGE 2OF5
17.204 of the City of Lake Elsinore Municipal Code. Accordingly, the
proposed Specific Plan Amendment No. 4 complies with the objectives of
the General Plan and the purpose of the planning district in which the site
is located.
2. The proposed location shall allow the development to be well- integrated
with or adequately buffered from its surroundings, whichever may be the
case.
The Project is appropriate to the site and surrounding developments in
that implementation of the Project will result in the demolition of two
buildings, address on -site circulation issues, update and add signage and
add site amenities such as outdoor "living rooms ", furnishings, water
features and fire places as well as associated improvements. The
amendment will result in a better design and advertising of stores and
greater visibility of the Outlet Center itself which benefits both the Outlet
Center and the City.
3. All vehicular traffic generated by the development, either in phased
increments or at full build -out, is to be accommodated safely and without
causing undue congestion upon adjoining streets.
The width and type of pavement needed to carry the type and quantity of
traffic generated that will result from implementation of Specific Plan
Amendment No. 2013 -01, Amendment No. 4 to the Lake Elsinore Outlet
Center Specific Plan has been reviewed and accounted for. The City has
conditioned the Project to be served by roads of adequate capacity and
design standards to provide reasonable access by car, truck, transit, and
bicycle.
4. The Specific Plan Amendment shall identify a methodology(s) to allow
land uses to be adequately serviced by existing or proposed public
facilities and services. In appropriate circumstances, and as provided
elsewhere by the Municipal Code, the City may require that suitable areas
be reserved for schools, parks and pedestrian ways; or public open
spaces shall be dedicated or reserved by private covenant for the
common use of residents, establishments or operations in the
development.

advertising of stores and greater visibility of the Outlet Center itself which
benefits both the Outlet Center and the City.
5. The overall design of Specific Plan Amendment No. 2013 -01, Amendment
No. 4 to the Lake Elsinore Outlet Center Specific Plan will produce an
attractive, efficient and stable development.
Specific Plan Amendment No. 2013 -01, Amendment No. 4 to the Lake

of the size and shape of the property, thereby, strengthening and
enhancing the immediate areas. The Project will complement the quality
of neighboring existing and future uses by creating visually - pleasing
development.
Specific Plan Amendment No. 2013 -01, Amendment No. 4 to the Lake
Elsinore Outlet Center Specific Plan will not be detrimental to the health,
safety, comfort or general welfare of the persons residing or working near
the Project or within the City, nor will it be injurious to property or
improvements in the project area or within the City. In addition, staff has
substantiated that all applicable City Departments and Agencies have
been afforded the opportunity for a thorough review of the Specific Plan

conditions related to installation and maintenance of landscaping, street
dedications, regulations of points of vehicular ingress and egress and

implementation.
