At its regular meeting on April 9, 1985, the City Council denied without prejudice, the Draft Specific Plan for Canyon Creek for reasons that relate to project density, lot sizes, provisions for a fire station, Railroad Canyon Dam, noise attenuation measures and lack of adequate parking. Subsequently, staff has met with the<applicant and has worked to alleviate the concerns associated with the major plan. On June 18, 1985, Planning Commission held a public hearing and reviewed Revised Draft Specific Plan. The Planning Commission recommends approval of the Revised Draft Specific Plan for Canyon Creek and approval of Addendum to the Environmental Impact Report, contingent upon all departmental concerns and review body directives to be incorporated within the project's comprehensive design, based on the following findings: ' 1. The Draft Specific Plan is consistent with area development and will implement the General Plan. 2. The revised density and open space are compatible with development of the area. 3. The Draft Specific Plan reflects the values, interests, and needs of the City of Lake Elsinore with regard to shelter, commercial, public service and facilities and recreational support systems. 4.
