Architecture and Treatments For Livin_o Smart Residences
The proposed Living Smart project would offer four architectural styles and treatments
for the twelve plans, including Spanish, Traditional, Italian, French, and Craftsman. The
following describes each of these architectural styles:
• The Spanish Architectural Style includes concrete "S" tile roofs, decorative pipe
vents at front gable ends, plank shutters, stucco window trim, and arched entries.
• The Italian Architectural Style includes concrete flat tile roofs, clipped gables, stone
veneer, decorative shutters, vertical windows with stucco trim and soft arches at the
front entries

Model Home Complex
The applicant is proposing a model home complex for the 'Meadow Ridge' product
proposed along Pursh Drive. The complex identifies models for three plans, including
Plans 113, 3XCR and 4XD. The complex will include a handicap parking space as well
as on street parking.
Conceptual Wall and Fence Plan
To ensure design consistency, the Conceptual Wall and Fence Plan for the project
shows that those similar walls and fences that are provided elsewhere in the Canyon
Hills area will continue to be provided with the proposed project. Perimeter walls will be
split face block with pilasters. The pilasters will have pointed and bull -nose caps. Six -
foot vinyl and tubular steel fences will be provided between lots and along view lots.
Front returns will be six -foot concrete block walls.
Analysis
City Planning and Engineering staff have reviewed the requested Design Review
application and have no concerns. Staff believes that the design amenities and features
previously approved in the immediate area are consistent with the project's architecture;
provision of Living Smart amenities and improvements; landscaping; and walls and
fences have resulted in a well- designed residential project. In addition, the project is
compatible with the overall Canyon Hills Specific Plan area and those existing and
future developments that neighbor the project site.
Environmental Determination
Environmental analysis and clearance for the proposed Design Review application is
provided by the 2003 Addendum to the 1989 Final Canyon Hills Specific Plan
Environmental Impact Report (EIR). The 2003 Addendum to the EIR (Addendum) was
prepared in accordance with Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines and was approved
by the City Council in late 2003. The proposed project is consistent with the Canyon
Hills Specific Plan Amendment No. 2 and therefore, will not conflict with the analysis
and findings of the 2003 Addendum. The 2003 Addendum concluded that all impacts
would be less than significant with implementation of those mitigation measures
contained in the original 1989 Final Canyon Hills Specific Plan EIR and carried forward
to the 2003 Addendum. It should also be noted that the project is exempt from the
Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP). Further environmental action is
not required pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162.

RESOLUTION NO. 2013-
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING FINDINGS THAT THE
PROJECT IS EXEMPT FROM THE MULTIPLE SPECIES HABITAT
CONSERVATION PLAN (MSHCP)
WHEREAS, Pardee Homes has submitted an application for Residential Design
Review No. 2013 -06 (the "Project "), for the "Meadow Glen" development of 137 single
family residential units within Tract Map No.'s 36115 and 36116; and
WHEREAS, Section IV(D) of the City of Lake Elsinore's MSHCP Implementing
Resolution expressly exempts from the MSHCP:
Any project for which and to the extent that vested rights to proceed with
the project notwithstanding the enactment of this Resolution exist under
the common laws of the State of California, a vesting tentative map
pursuant to the Subdivision Map Act, a development agreement pursuant
to Government Code section 65864 et seq., or other instrument, approved
or executed by the City prior to adoption of this Resolution. Projects
subject to this exemption must comply with all provisions of any applicable
state and federal law.
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 December 3 2013.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LAKE
ELSINORE DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That in accordance with the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code and the
MSHCP, the Planning Commission finds that:
The Project is exempt from the City's MSHCP Resolution by virtue of vested
rights. On July 9, 1990, the City and Pardee - Grossman /Cottonwood Canyon
entered into that certain development agreement (the "Development
Agreement'), which expressly exempted the Developer from responsibility for
any new development impact fees. The Development Agreement was amended
by Amendment No. 1 dated January 12, 2010, approved by Ordinance No. 1270
which extends the project's exemption from MSHCP requirements.
Even though the Project is exempt from the MSHCP, the Developer must comply
with other state and federal laws. Consistent with federal law, the applicant had
prepared a project- specific Habitat Conservation Plan and has a history of
extensive coordination with the wildlife agencies. Where approved for
development, the project site has already been graded, cleared, or developed in

regarding the MSCHP is required.

passage and adoption.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LAKE
ELSINORE, APPROVING RESIDENTIAL DESIGN REVIEW NO. 2013 -06
WHEREAS, Pardee Homes has submitted an application for Residential Design
Review No. 2013 -06 (the "Activity "), for the "Meadow Glen" development of 137 single -
family residential units within the Canyon Hills Specific Plan, Tract Map No.'s 36115 and
36116; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore has been
delegated with the responsibility of approving Residential Design Review requests for
residential projects within the Canyon Hills Specific Plan; 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.), public agencies are expressly encouraged to reduce delay and paperwork
associated with the implementation of CEQA by using previously prepared
environmental documents when those previously prepared documents adequately
address the potential impacts of the proposed project (CEQA Guidelines Section
15006); and
WHEREAS, CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 establishes the standard to be
used when determining whether subsequent environmental documentation is necessary
and says that when an environmental document has already been adopted for a project,
no subsequent environmental documentation is needed for subsequent entitlements
which comprise the whole of the action unless substantial changes or new information
are presented by the project; and
WHEREAS, the 1989 Final Environmental Impact Report for the Canyon Hills
Specific Plan (SCH #87111606: the "FEIR ") and the 2003 Addendum to FEIR,
collectively, evaluated environmental impacts that would result from maximum build -out
of the specific plan; and
WHEREAS, the Activity comprises part of the whole of the action and does not
present substantial changes or new information regarding the potential environmental
impacts of the project; and
WHEREAS, public notice of the Activity 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 December 3, 2013.
NOW THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LAKE
ELSINORE DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The Planning Commission has considered the proposed
Residential Design Review plotting of production units for the "Meadow Glen"
PC December 3, 2013 Item No. 6

development and has found them acceptable. The Planning Commission finds and
determines that Residential Design Review No. 2013 -06 is consistent with the Canyon
Hills Specific Plan.
SECTION 2. The Planning Commission finds and determines that the Activity
does not present any new information, circumstances, or changes to the project that
was analyzed under the FEIR and the 2003 Addendum to the FEIR. The Activity does
not change density or intensities of use. It simply establishes standards for the design
and plotting of single family residential home product. Therefore, it is not necessary to
conduct any further environmental review for the Activity.
SECTION 3. That in accordance with Lake Elsinore Municipal Code Chapter
17.184, the Planning Commission makes the following findings for the approval of
Residential Design Review No. 2013 -06:
1. The Activity complies with the Goals, Objectives and Policies of the General Plan
and the Canyon Hills Specific Plan, as approved.
The General Plan designates the site as "Canyon Hills Specific Plan." The Canyon
Hills Specific Plan designates the sites as "SF -2 Single- Family Residential District."
Residential Design Review No. 2013 -06, the proposed plotting of approved
production units will collectively lead to the construction of a single family residential
development that is consistent with the Canyon Hills Specific Plan.
2. The Activity complies with the design directives contained in Chapter 17.184.060
and all other applicable provisions of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code.
The Activity is appropriate to the site and surrounding developments in that it will
result in the construction of single- family detached units in accordance with
appropriate development and design standards contained in the Canyon Hills
Specific Plan. The Activity creates interest and varying vistas as a person moves
along any street within the subdivision. The Activity also complements the quality of
existing neighboring development and will continue to provide visually - pleasing
design and architecture within the area.
3. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to Chapter 17.184.070, including guarantees
and evidence of compliance with conditions, have been incorporated into the
approval of the Activity to ensure development of the property in accordance with the
General Plan, Municipal Code, and Canyon Hills Specific Plan.
The Planning Commission has considered the Activity and finds that with the
attached conditions of approval, the Activity complies with the purposes and
objectives of the General Plan, Municipal Code and Canyon Hills Specific Plan.
