"CEQA Guidelines ") pursuant to a Class 32 categorical exemption for in -fill development
projects. Specifically, the Planning Commission finds that the Project:
1. Is consistent with the applicable general plan designation and all applicable
General Plan policies as well as with applicable zoning designation and
regulations as set forth herein below.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2013 -72
PAGE 2OF4
2. Will occur within the City limits. The Project Site is less than 5 acres and is
substantially surrounded by urban uses.
3. The Project Site currently consists of an undeveloped vacant lot and has no
value as habitat for endangered, rare or threatened species.
4. Approval of the Project will not result in any significant effects relating to traffic,
noise, air quality or water quality.
5. The Project Site can be adequately served by all required utilities and public
services.
SECTION 3. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning Law and the

for the approval of Commercial Design Review 2013 -06:
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.

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 compliment 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 the
existing nearby commercial developments. 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

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 Section 17.184.070 of the Municipal
Code, including guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions, have
