PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: Planting Manager Weiner led the Pledge of Allegiance. ROLL CALL PRESENT: COMMISSIONERS: O'NEAL, GONZALES, FLORES, MENDOZA, ZANELLI ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: Also present were: Director of Community Development Preisendanz, Plam~ing Manager Weiner, Deputy City Attorney Santana, Engineering Manager Seurnalo, Associate Planner Resendiz, and Office Specialist Herrington. PUBLIC COMMENTS (Non-Agenda Items Hector Zubieta, Mumeta, said a Minor Design Review for two (2) Single Family Residences (SFRs) located at 29315 and 29327 Gunder Avenue was presented to the Planning Commission on November 7, 2006, and he was unable to attend. Regarding the Conditions of Approval, Mr. Zubieta said he feels Staff should check with other Agencies before putting Conditions of Approval in projects because some of these conditions cannot be met. Ides concern is that Staff is requesting a letter from the Fire Department asking that they certify that there is enough water pressure in the street incase of a fire. Mr Zubieta spoke to Todd Letterman of the Fire Department and he said he can't do that because it is not an Agency. Mr. Zubieta said he doesn't know if it is a lack of trust between the Planning Conunission and the Water Department but it started with a "Will Serve" letter, and then it went to a detailed "Will Serve" letter, and now staff has gotten the Fire Department involved. He feels staff should check with other Agencies before putting it in as a condition because when you get your permit, they can't issue you a "Will Serve" letter Agenda Item No. Page of PAGE 2 -PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -December 5, 2006 Therefore, you can never get your Building Permit. Mr. Zubieta indicated he spoke to Planning Manager Weiner about this matter. Mr. Zubieta stated that within the last fifteen (15) years, it was his understanding that whenever the Fire Department requested a water pressure test, they went to the Water District and they relied on their testing. When you request to pull a pemut, if you don't have the "Will Serve" letter, you'll be stuck there. Also, another issue he had was that some of the conditions do not apply. For instance Staff is asking for street improvements, then they are asking for in lieu fees (?), and when you go to pull a permit, theywant street improvements even though in lieu fees are listed. Mr. Zubieta indicated that Staff should pay more attention to what conditions are going through on every project because on one page it says you need in lieu fees and on another page it says you should provide street improvement plans so which is which. Commissioner O'Neal asked Director of Community Development Preisendanz to address these concerns. Director of Community Development Preisendanz said he talked to Todd Letterman of the Fire Department and requested they review all of the Mmor Design Reviews for conditioning. One of the things that staff didn't have was the fee for that review. They have given us a fee which we are looking at and will assess that fee for a Minor Design Review. Todd Letterman did confirm that Fire does not provide a letter to the applicant or to the City regarding water pressure as does the Water District. Director of Community Development Preisendanz said they are still in negotiations with the Fire Department on this. Therefore, it is not a closed matter. He said he needs a little more time to talk the Fire Chief and Todd Letterman about this. He further said theydon't do it historicallythough. Mr.. Zubieta said he would like to be updated on this because he has a lot of projects in that area, that do not only affect this project but also other projects he will have. Director of Community Development Preisendanz is working on establishing better communication between Riverside County Fire and City of Lake Elsinore. We will have a Riverside Fire Inspector and Plan Ckrecker on staff at City Hall within the next few months which will help. Mr.. Zubieta said he understood Director of CommunityDevelopment Preisendanz is concerned, and he knows Commissioner O'Neal lives in the area being discussed, and if there is a fire, water has to be available. Mr.. Zubieta reiterated the documentation is hard to get. Director of Community Development Preisendanz said Fire is doing Conditions of Approval but sometimes the Conditions can or cannot be met. Agenda Item No. Page of PAGE 3 -PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -December 5, 2006 Mr. .Zubieta said when he talks to someone at the counter, they are requesting documentation and sometimes the request can't be met and then you are stuck. Director of Community Development Preisendanz noted to Commissioner O'Neal that the Planning Division with working with Fire on this project and they are working on establishing policywith Fire for future projects. Mr.. Zubieta also stated if there is no water, does the City work in conjunction with the Water District to bring the water lines up to the area because there are a lot of empty lots there. Miguel Flores is a friend of his and he owns 501ots there. If there is a problem with the water, he thinks the City and the P1aTUiuig Commission can do something about it. Director of Community Development Preisendanz reiterated that the City is getting Fire more involved. They have responded but they nom~ally do not provide a letter. The Ciry is still working with them The Conditions of Approval should be consistent. Commissioner O'Neal stated that it's not only his concern but also that ex Commissioner Lapere had been fighting for this for a couple of years in order to get adequate water service and water pressure m the area. He said his experience as a resident in dealing with the Water District has been difficult. Mr..Zubieta said the water fees are very high. Mr. .Zubieta said the City of Lake Elsinore is an old town and a lot of the water infrastructure has to be rebuilt. He would like to see that done and hopefully the City and the Planning Commission can do something about that. CONSENT CALENDAR 1. Minutes a. Regular Planning Commission Minutes of September 5, 2006 and November 21, 2006 Regarding September 5, 2006, Meeting Mmutes, Commissioner Flores asked that there be a correction made and please add his continent under Planning Conmvssion Continents, Page three (3) of fourteen (14). MOVED BY FLORES, SECONDED BY MENDOZA AND PASSED BY A VOTE OF 5-0 TO APPROVE CORRECTIONS TO THE MEETING MINUTES OF SEPTEMBER 5, 2006. Agenda Ttem No. Page of PAGE 4 -PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -December 5, 2006 2. Director of Community Development Preisendanz provided a brief overview of the proposed project and requested Associate P1axlxler Resendiz review it with the Commission and answer questions. Associate Planner Resendiz provided an overview of the project. Enrique Flores (Applicant/Owner), 23741 Lodge. Drive, Quail Valley, stated that he read and understood the staff report and conditions of approval. Barbara Anderson, 304 N. Lewis Street, Lake Elsinore, requested to address the Plamiing Commission on this item Barbara Anderson said she lives right next door to 905 W. Sumner Avenue and the entrance to the house is on Lewis Street, the front of the house is on Sumner. She stated that her property covers three (3) lots, and her house straddles those. She is there to object to the project. She said she hadn't realized that the Commission had approved the project and wondered how they can approve a project without the public having any say in it. She gave the following reasons for objecting, and hoped that the Commission took them seriously. There are no duplexes between Poe and Chaney or from Lakeshore to Pottery, and this is an area of about thirty (30) to forty (40) blocks. It is zoned R 1 Single Family Residence (SFR). During the past few years, this Commission has allowed modular homes to come in and some of them have remained for sale from the time they were constructed which is a year. She was concerned that it's a small lot and the house is going to stretch across the whole lot and end up at her side fence. She also heard there could be reduced parking. Ms. Anderson would like to know why in an R 1 area, would the Commission allow something like this? If it is built, it would serve as a model for other vacant lots in this area. The duplex changes the nature of the community. Czrrrently there are SFRs which are owned and rented out. The neighbors know each other by sight. The residents know who does not belong in the community, and who are potential mischiefs. Ms. Anderson further related that if duplexes are allowed, how can it be considered an historical area? It seems like your changing the nature of the community. Duplexes and rentals means a transient population and you are also changing the nature of the population of the community. It is a quiet community, and the residents don't have problems. They feel safe at night. There are empty lots surrounding her property and she thinks this gives the potential of having these empty lots turn into multiple family developments. Agenda Item No. Page of PAGE 5 -PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -December 5, 2006 Ms. Anderson said a SFR supports the community. They are stable and they don't move in an out. There. are other places in the city to build duplexes. She suggested to build past Poe (sp?) where there are a number of empty lots. • Ms. Anderson said if the duplex is built, would the area lose its historical value? She said in another community, she owns a historical house, and the City wanted her to move it so they could build a warehouse. She said it does have a historical designation. She is concerned that in the future, the community will lose its historical value if these duplexes are to be built in this area. Ms. Anderson asked, "If the point of the Planning Conmvssion is to plan for the future of the community, not just approve the houses or dwellings that can be built". When does the public get to say anything about it? She reiterated again that she wasn't aware of the project until the sign went up and she didn't know there was any way to address this issue until she got a notice and saw the sign. Ms. Anderson thanked the Commission for their time. Michelle Randolph, 305 N. Lewis Street, also requested to address the Planning Commission on this item Ms. Randolph said she lives on the corner of Sumner and she also has all of the same concerns as Ms. Anderson. She is roomed about the temporary housing, she has children. The property backs an alley, she is roomed about the high turnover of rentals. She said her family bought the house in the historical district so that they could have a family. They know their neighbors and it's in an established neighborhood. She is concerned that a duplex is being built where there are SFRs. She is also concerned about the parking in the garages. She said there is going to be cars in the garage and at least two (2) more cars in each parking space and the driveways are short. Commissioner O'Neal referred to Deputy City Attorney Santana regarding legal issues with the matter. Deputy City Attorney Santana said the Planning Commission has not yet, as of December 5, approved this project. Therefore, at this point in time, the public is invited to come to the meeting and provide their comments. Thus, inform the Commission with their concerns. The comments are timelyand theydid respond to the notice appropriately. Deputy City Attorney Santana stated that with regard to duplexes, they are an appropriate development use for this area as it is zoned medium density and it does allow for up to twelve (12) units per acre, therefore, they are below the *naximum allowable density for this area. Agenda Item No. Page of PAGE 6 - PLANI`IING COMMISSION MINUTES -December 5, 2006 With regard to modular homes, the City is required pursuant to state law to treat modular homes in the same way as it would treat a SFR that is stick built so the City cannot treat a modular home any differently than it would treat a home that was going to built in the traditional fashion. As long as the modular home complies with n ILmum required setbacks, maximum allowable densities, the modular home must be approved so long as it complies with the Cities zoning requirements. Commissioner O'Neal asked Associate Planner Resendiz to address the historic guidelines. Associate Plaxmer Resendiz said this property is located in the historic district. The architectural design that is being presented is Monterey architectural design. Regarding the parking requirements, the back of the space is twenty eight (28) feet. There is a requirement for additional parking on the space and the parking requirements are being met. He said for a two (2) unit development, they must have a total of six (6) parking spaces, with a m;n;murn of two (2) covered parking spaces. The applicant is providing four covered with two (2) open. Community Development Preisendanz clarified to the guests and the citizens that this project is a conventionallybuilt duplex. It is not a manufactured project. It is still built so it is conventionallyframed: Plaznvng Commissioner Comments Vice ChaitTnan Gonzales said he went by the property and it is narrow but the Commissioners have approved other duplexes that have been built with the same style. There are rentals there. He didn't see a problem with this project. It meets all of the requirements. Commissioner Mendoza emphasized about what Vice Chairman Gonzales said about there being rentals available there now except they are SFRs and you can never tell what your going to get in a SFR as far as a renter goes and what kind of a neighbor they are going to be and the same goes with a duplex. That is the whole purpose of people trying to find a good -place to live to fit in with communities. The project meets all of the guidelines that is required by law and is required by the City and that it what the Commissioners are basing their decision on. Commissioner Zanelli thanked the public for coming to the meeting. He didn't have a chance to drive by this project. He said he does understand their concerns and he would feel the same way if he lived in that area. Agenda Item No. Page of PAGE 7 -PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -December 5, 2006 Conuivssioner Zanelli confirmed with Associate Planner Resendiz that these are not enclosed garages but they are caxporrs and he asked Associate Planner Resendiz for confirmation that the reason for this is because of the space limitation? Associate Planner Resendiz stated yes it was because of the space limitation. He said at this point even if the applicant requested that there be an enclosed garage it can be done based on the provisions in the code. Commissioner Zanelli said he thought that would improve the project. People tend to fill up car ports and storage spaces and become an eye sore very quickly He would like to have the garages enclosed. Associate Planner Resendiz stated he had a correction on this, the section of the code says the overhang tnayencroach two (2) feet into the required set back Commissioner Zanelli commented that aesthetically it is a nice looking project but he understands the residents concerns but the Commission is bound by the codes. Commissioner Flores asked the applicant if the Duplexes will be rentals? The applicant indicated they were going to be rentals, but after they are built, he and his brother will be living there or sell them Conuivssioner Flores said based on the information that he heard, and he thanked the residents for giving the Commission their concerns, he does agree with the statements that they made but he also agreed with Staff that they have looked at the project and it is in conformance with the additional projects that have been placed with this Conunission since he has been on board. Therefore, he concurs with his fellow Commissioners. Chairman O'Neal thanked Staff for the color swatches. Chairman O'Neal stated that this project does conform with State and Local guidelines. He said he understands the issues that the residents raise but as a Commission, their hands are tied when it comes to some of those issues that they do raise.

Commissioner Zanelli said the last notice said 3:00 p.m even though it was after they discussed it. Director of Community Development Preisendanz recollection was that it was changed to 4:00 p.m Commissioner O'Neal said his recollection was that he wanted the time changed to 4:00 P•Il'• Commissioner Zanelli stated that it is what everyone agreed to but the last written notice he received said the meeting was at 3:00 p.m and he wasn't sure if it got changed in the shuffle.

I3e will let the Commission know for sure before the Agenda goes out so Chairman O'Neal will be prepared. Commissioner Zanelli asked Engineering Manager Seumalo if he is aware of what they are going to do with the electrical on Lake between Mountain and the Boys and Girls Club. It appears that they are going to put it under ground or are those additional power lines? Engineering Manager Seumalo said he not aware of the under grounding. He understood they would move the power poles. He said he would look into it and give him an answer on Wednesday. Commissioner Zanelli said they have been trenching a lot of conduit and he wasn't sure if it was for additional power supplies to the area or to put those lines underground? Engineering Manager Seumalo said he would call Commissioner Zanelli on Wednesday. Commissioner Zanelli wanted to know if it was decided that two (2) of the members of the Commission would meet with the Engineering Division on road projects? Engineering Manager Seumalo deferred the question to Director of Community Development Preisendanz. Director of Community Development Preisendanz said they haven't decided how they are going to proceed with that as far as choosing how they are going to appoint Committee members but it is something that they want to do. There is a lot they need to do to communicate better with the Commission and they are looking to improve that. Commissioner Zanelli asked Director of Community Development Preisendanz about the relocation the Sky Diving operation? Director of Community Development Preisendanz asked Planning Manager Weiner to discuss this. Plamrurg Manager Weiner said Plamring Consultant Miller has been working on the project. Staff forwarded a lot of continents back regarding extension of the landing strip and other items in the plan. They re-submitted the plan about ten (10) days ago for Staff review. Staff is reviewing them and will get back to them within thirty (30) days from the time of their submittal and give back any comments. If they have addressed everything then Staff can proceed to bring it to hearing. The Commission should be seeing that in the first quarter of next year if not sooner. Commissioner Flores thanked Engineering Manager Seumalo for the copy on the Bike Lane information. He did speak to Planning Manager Weiner and asked if there was a map that Agenda I[em No. Page of PAGE 10 -PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -December 5, 2006 showed the areas that the City has controlled the markings of those bike lanes and hopefully we will have one. Conurrissioner Flores also wanted to know who striped these bike lanes in places the bike lane lettering, is it done bythe Citypersonnel or is it a contract issue? Engineering Manager Seumalo said the City Maintenance Department is under contract with the striping crew that will place the bike lane stripes, as well as the legends. Commissioner Flores said it would make him very happy if he could get a map. Engineering Manager Seumalo contacted Parks and Recreation, they were not aware of a map but deferred him to GIS Division and he said he would contact them on Wednesday. Commissioner Flores said he called City Hall today and it took him twenty five minutes to get through to get a warm body. He was transferred numerous times to an answering machine. He never gave his last name or the position that he held because he said when he does, he gets in right away and he thinks that needs to be worked on. He did commend the Receptionist for being so patient. He also went into the office today to tell her that she did an outstanding job receiving his transfers back, transferring back up and being placed on hold. Commissioner Flores indicated that he was hung up on once and had to call back and then the lines were busy. He believes that the Cityshould have a staff member that can tell an individual that they will get back to them within an hour instead of being sent from one voicexnail to another. Commissioner Flores said he didn't get mad because he knew everyone is busy. When he walked into City Hall today he said there about fifteen (15) people ready to climb over the cormrer which is a good thing. Director of Community Development Preisendanz said he has talked to CityManager Brady about this problem and one of things theywant to do is to improve the phone system They want to make sure that there is live person at the front and at each Division. If they are not at their desk, the call should be forwarded back to the Receptionist. He knows there needs to be improvement. The goal is to have a live person answer. If the call can't be answered, it is the responsibility of the person taking the call get back to the public and find out the answer. We are busy so it is a challenge. Commissioner Flores asked Engineering Manager Seumalo if he knew anything about surveyors at Lakeshore and wanted to know what that surveying was for and what they were doing there? He said hopefully they would be building something on that empty lot. Engineering Manager Seumalo stated he attends a weekly Engineering Staff Meeting on Wednesday morning and he would find out. Agenda Item No. Page of PAGE 11-PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -December 5, 2006 Engineering Manager Seumalo asked Commissioner Flores for the approximate location. Commissioner Flores told him at Lakeshore Drive in front of Stater Bros. Engineering Manager Seumalo indicated a concern from the Police Department regarding traffic in that area. He said that might have been the striping crew doing preliminary surveys. The Police Chief also asked that we look into having a bamcade angled at that point to protect pedestrians walking next to Las Palmas. He is speculating so he will ask Staff about that on Wednesday. .Commissioner Mendoza wanted to know if theywould be seeing anyplans for the future use of the old K-Mart building soon. Director of Community Development Preisendanz said that it has been a problematic project. The Building Plans are in Building Safety for plan check and they have not been released or issued. We have been told to stop work on that. They were going to paint the exterior of the building. Planning was going to approve it administratively because there weren't any major exterior renovations to the building. However, the interior of the building (bowling alley, and arcade was proposed) is not approved yet. They have hired an outside consultant that works nationwide and manages projects of this type to watch the project and see if it is going well. Director of Community Development Preisendanz also said there has been a Tentative Parcel Map that has been submitted for that site. They want to subdivide that site into the K-Mart building and outlying pads, not to develop the outlying pads but to subdivide only. Commissioner Mendoza asked Engineering Manager Seumalo what is going in at Railroad Canyon Road at Canyon Hills where all of the grading is? Engineering Manager Seumalo said Pulte Homes is putting a multi family site and the clearing and grubbing for weed abatement. He said he would ask them to clarifythat. Vice Chairman Gonzales asked Engineering Manager Seumalo about the house on Hunt that the guy dug out of that hill, he wanted to know what happened with that. Engineering Manager Seumalo said he spoke to the Inspector and the property owner/developer has pemuts to continue working and they have all of the permits required and were incompliance with the Cities regulations. Commissioner Gonzales wanted to know if they are building a house there. Engineering Manager Seumalo said yes they are building a house there and the permits are for grading only. Agenda Item No. Page of PAGE 12 -PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -December 5, 2006 Commissioner Gonzales stated that the Commission has not gotten the house plans yet Planning Manager Weiner stated. that there is no Building Plan Check or Permits that have been issued on that according to our Building Department. Commissioner Gonzales noted that he has dug into the hill. Director of Community Development Preisendanz said we would verify whether or not they have gone to the Flaming Commission. Commissioner Gonzales said if that is the case, it's been two (2) years but as long as they are doing it right. Commissioner O'Neal asked Engineering Manager Seumalo if the grading was done by Administrative ApprovaL> Engineering Manager Seumalo said yes the Grading Plan Check process in an Administrative process. Director of Community Development Preisendanz confirmed that it gets sent through Plan Check. Chairman O'Neal said he has heard twice this evening about Administrative Approvals and he is disturbed by that. He said he has never been one not to give Staff headway but in this particular case, he wanted to know how Engineeiing can give Grading Plan Approval when you don't. know what is going to go on top of that grading. Don't you have to have some idea of what is going to go there in order to understand what it is being graded for? Engineering Manager Seumalo stated that he is not saying that he is correct but he disagreed. He said the property owner has a night to do with his property what they will and as long as they are in compliance with the statutes that the City is held to enforce that he would issue the Grading Permit. Director of Community Development Preisendanz said we would look at the extent of the grading. For instance, if they were going to carve out a hillside which, in this case they did, and If he were asked to issue a Grading Permit, his answer would be "no", because we need to see a design of the project. He indicated that he did not know when this was issued, but he would not do that now. Commissioner O'Neal said as an example, he could build a fireplace but it's nneaningless unless everyone understands the context of what is around the fireplace. Commissioner O'Neal stated that unless you know the notion of the entire project and put the grading into the context of that project then it doesn't make sense to give approval for that. Agenda I[em No. Page of PAGE 13 -PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -December 5, 2006 Engineering Manager Seumalo agreed with Commissioner O'Neal and Director of Community Development Preisendanz. He stated that the Planning Division and the Community Development Department, as a whole, does have a view of the big picture. He stated that he needs to have a better line of communication with the Director of Community Development as to what direction and what their philosophy is. Ibis thought was that these are the regulations that we need to follow, and if they are followed then he has no restriction to issue a perrnit. However, he reiterated that he does agree with Commissioner O'Neal one hundred (100) percent. Commissioner O'Neal said he has specifically talked about in fill projects on a number of occasions and he was probably the only Commissioner that would have allowed in fill projects to be done adtnutistratively but he made it very clear at the time that he also stated that it did not apply to Country Club Heights, and it did not apply to commercial. Thus, regarding the K-Mart building, he heard that evening, that it gets an Administrative Approval for a color that they want to paint on the outside, and he did say that the color the Staff chose will look good, but it should have come to the Commission. Director of Community Development Preisendanz said there was discussion with the Developer regarding the color of the building, and the Developer was going to have it painted a neutral color. Commissioner O'Neal said regarding a neutral color, the Regal Cinema that is next it to the K-Mart building, is not painted a neutral color. A Neutral color does not necessarily fall into place with what is aheadythere. Director of Community Development Preisendanz said if there is a neutral color they would be safe. Commissioner O'Neal said that this is supposed to be a fun zone, and if it were his project, he would want the outside of the building to look fun, whether you use neons which go along with bowling alleys and roller skating rinks. Director of Community Development Preisendanz stated that the Administrative Approval was for the outside of the building only for paint and rile work There is going to be an arcade going in and that needs to go through Conditional Use Permit. Therefore, the uses that are going in there, the arcade and any bar/lounge needs to go to the Planning Commission. He stated that he understands Commissioner O'Neal's concern and Staff will make sure that this does not happen again. Commissioner O'Neal referred to Edwards Gnema's design and colors and how nice it looks. It would be nice. to encourage that design. Director o£ Community Development Preisendanz agreed with Commissioner O'Neal. Agenda Item No. Page of PAGE 14 -PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES -December 5, 2006 Director of Community Development Preisendanz did say there will be more oppomuuties to establish architecture and color with the out lying pads/four (4) lots. Commissioner Zanelli asked Engineering Manager Seumalo about the inlet channel by the stadium there is some grading work going on and some laying down of cement shoreline? Engineering Manager Seumalo said that is Rivets Edge project which is an apartment complex that was previously approved.
