The Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District (EVMWD), Resolution No. 15-05-05 Specific Plan Amendment 6 Erratum Summerly 1 January 2016 SECTION 1.0 PREFACE This document, referred to as SPA-6 Erratum, is an amendment to Specific Plan Amendment 6 (SPA-6) specifically and exclusively pertaining to Parcel 18 of Tentative Tract Map (TTM) 31920. The purpose of this Specific Plan Amendment is to 1) change the land use designation on Parcel 18 from RES-1 to RES-2; and 2) change the acreage split between residential on Parcel 18 and park/recreation on Parcel 19 . All provisions from SPA-6 and SPA-10 remain the same unless explicitly stated otherwise in this Erratum. SECTION 2.0 INTRODUCTION Background Encompassing 3,000 acres of the eastern banks of Lake Elsinore, the East Lake Specific Plan (ELSP) provided up to 9,000 dwelling units (du) and a combination of commercial, recreational and open space uses. The Specific Plan adopted in 1993 was subsequently amended by a series of Specific Plan Amendments (SPA), one of which being SPA-6, to which this is the Erratum. SPA-6 to the ELSP redistributed land uses and established guidelines for the development known as Summerly, consisting of 706.7 acres and 1,955 dwelling units. SPA-6 identifies a planned community development concept of classic design, employing enhanced public street design and alignment, contemporary architecture, and amenities consistent with planned community standards. This development concept is comprised of single family detached residential development at densities up to 6.0 dus per acre, conforming to the overall character of the City of Lake Elsinore. Residential development is integrated with a variety of open space and recreational amenities with a golf course and club house. Expanded landscaped parkway streets and recreational amenities maintained by Home Owner Associations ensure the community will be maintained at a high standard. Source: Google Maps Figure 1. Project Location Specific Plan Amendment 6 Erratum Summerly 2 January 2016 Non-residential uses in this area include public parks, a privately owned public-use 18-hole regulation- length golf course and club house, driving range, maintenance facilities, parking facilities (including stadium overflow parking), parks, open space flood storage, multi-purpose trails and open space buffers. In July of 2004 SPA-6, also known as Summerly, was approved to build the following: Table 1.

The total number of building lots created was 1,483 lots for single family detached dwellings. Parcel 18 was left as an “A” Map parcel to be mapped with individual “B” Map lots in the future. In March 2013, a revision to TTM 31920 (Figure 4) was approved by the City of Lake Elsinore to map individual building lots on Parcel 27. Parcel 27, approximately 4 acres in size, was originally designated Open Space and programmed for a recreation facility. SPA-10 changed the designation of Parcel 27 to RES-1 and moved the location of the approximately 4-acre recreation facility to Parcel 19 to be more central within the Summerly community. The change from Open Space to RES-1 (6.0 du/acre max) allowed for an additional 24 lots, which raised the total number of permitted dwelling units within Summerly to 1,979, however this change remained consistent with the overall permitted number of dwelling units (7,975) within the East Lake Specific Plan. Of the 24 lots approved by SPA-10, the revision to TTM 31920, mapped 17 lots, bringing the total number of mapped residential lots within Summerly to 1,500.

This Erratum is exclusively an amendment to the SPA-6 pertaining to Parcel 18 and Parcel 19 of TTM 31920. The project site was originally designated RES-1, with a proposed school overlay (Figure 6). As stated within Section III-6 of SPA-6, “…of the plan designated for residential development also includes a 13-acre site proposed for an elementary school in the center of the development area. It is ultimately up to the school district to determine if this site is one they want to acquire for future school development. If they do not elect to acquire this site it will be developed at a residential density consistent with the underlying RES-1 land use designation.” The school district determined that the proposed school was not necessary, therefore reverting the land use on the project site to residential. * * TTM 31920 has been graphically altered to depict Project Site location. Figure 5. TTM 31920 – Revision 3 Specific Plan Amendment 6 Erratum Summerly 8 January 2016 Instead of reverting to RES-1, this Erratum re-designates the Project Site (Parcel 18 of TTM 31920) from RES-1 to RES-2 to accommodate smaller lot single family detached homes. In addition to changing the land use designation from RES-1 to RES-2 on Parcel 18, this SPA-6 Erratum also revises the acreage split between residential on Parcel 18 and recreation on Parcel 19. SPA-10 moved the approximately 4.0 acre recreation site from Parcel 27 to Parcel 19 to be more central to the community. With this SPA-6 Erratum, Parcel 19, which originally measured 4.77 acres (per the recorded Final Tract Map 31920-1), now measures 3.93 acres in order to provide an approximately 4 acre recreation facility. Parcel 18, which measured 12.90 acres (per the recorded Final Tract Map 31920-1), becomes 13.73 acres with SPA-6 Erratum. The following Table 4 provides a summary comparison between SPA-6, SPA-10 and SPA-6 Erratum of acreage for each land use designation.

SPA-10 permitted 24 additional units raising the total number of permitted dwelling units to 1,979, of which 17 were mapped raising the total number of mapped lots to 1,500, as shown in Table 5. This SPA-6 Erratum changes the maximum number of dwelling units permitted on Parcel 18 from 78 (at 6 du/ac authorized by RES-1) to 182 (14 du/ac authorized by RES-2). Since 1,500 lots have been previously mapped, 479 dwelling units remain under the cap of 1,979 established by SPA-10. Therefore, the change in land use associated with SPA-6 Erratum remains under the dwelling unit cap. Furthermore, the total number of mapped lots (1,500) plus the additional permitted lots (182) equals 1,682 dwelling units, which maintains an overall density of 5.1 dwelling units per acre over 331 acres, also consistent with the maximum overall density of 6 dwelling units per acre. Any future changes to previously mapped lots would be subject to a similar review to ensure compliance with the maximum number of dwelling units. Table 5.

Land Use Districts The SPA-6 Erratum modifies the land use district designation for the Project Site. The Lake Elsinore School District determined that the 13-acre residential site with a school overlay was unnecessary. While maintaining the residential use of the area, the SPA-6 Erratum modifies the land use designation from RES-1 to RES-2 as shown in Figure 7. B. Land Use Plan SPA-6 originally approved construction of 1,955 dwelling units and SPA-10 increased the approved number of dwelling units to 1,979 dwelling units. Upon the school district’s decision to relinquish the school overlay on the Project Site (Parcel 18 of TTM 31920), the Project Site reverted to a residential land use designation. This SPA-6 Erratum includes the change from RES-1 to RES-2 to permit up to 182 dwelling units on Parcel 18. The residential areas within SPA-6 and SPA-10 have all been subdivided, with exception of the Project Site, with a total of 1,500 lots. The change in land use on the Project Site added to the number of previously mapped lots remains below the approved 1,979 dwelling units. C. General Plan Consistency The current General Plan designation for the Project Site is Specific Plan. The change in land use designation as part of this SPA-6 Erratum from RES-1 to RES-2 does not change the underlying residential designation, which is consistent with the City of Lake Elsinore General Plan. Furthermore, the change in acreage between Parcel 18 and Parcel 19 maintains the approximately 4 acre recreation facility approved through SPA-10 and remains consistent with park dedication requirements. Specific Plan Amendment 6 Erratum Summerly 13 January 2016 Figure 7. Revised Land Use Specific Plan Amendment 6 Erratum Summerly 14 January 2016 D. Circulation Plan This SPA-6 Erratum does not alter or modify any of the backbone circulation included in SPA-6. The backbone streets of Diamond Drive and Summerly Place remain as planned. The Project Site takes access from Summerly Place, which has sufficient capacity to accommodate development of Parcel 18. E. Utilities and Services This SPA-6 Erratum does not change any location of backbone utilities. Wet and dry utilities are already in place to serve other phases of Summerly previously built. The changes provided by SPA-6 Erratum would not change the location of the utility connections or cause a deficiency in the capacity of those utilities, including the pump station constructed for Summerly. F. Public Services This SPA-6 Erratum would not change the demand for public services. Public services are currently provided to serve the other phases of Summerly previously built. The change in land use designation to accommodate 182 dwelling units does not change the demand placed on public services compared to the prior designation of school. G. Grading Plan Grading of the project site was included as part of the approval of SPA-6. The change in land use designation from RES-1 with a school overlay to RES-2 results in minor changes to the precise grading of the residential lots. However, this change is in substantial conformance with TTM 31920 and SPA-6. H. Open Space Plan SPA-6 established a park dedication requirement of 5 acres per 1,000 residents and relied on 3.2 persons per household based on Census data at that time. Under this standard, the 1,979 residential lots provided in SPA-6 requires dedication of 31.7 acres of parkland. The changes outlined in this SPA-6 Erratum would not change the maximum number of permitted dwelling units nor the parkland dedication requirement. This SPA-6 Erratum adjusts the boundary between residential land use on Parcel 18 and recreation land use on Parcel 19. This change is reflected in the available qualifying parkland. Table 6 provides a summary of Open Space and Parkland from SPA-10. This table also provides the modification associated with SPA-6 Erratum. As shown in Table 6, SPA-10 provided 36.1 acres of qualifying parkland. The adjustments included in SPA-6 Erratum have reduced qualifying parkland to 34.1 acres. However, the 34.1 acres of qualifying parkland remains in excess of the 31.7-acre parkland dedication requirement for the total 1,979 dwelling unit cap.

Project Phasing The total number of mapped residential lots (1,500) plus the 182 dwelling units approved by SPA-6 Erratum is within the 1,979 dwelling units as amended in SPA-10, phasing of residential neighborhoods is not materially affected and, consistent with SPA-10, may occur as dictated by market conditions. J. Design Guidelines This section of the SPA-6 Erratum outlines amendments to landscape guidelines, and serves as a guide for detailed planning of the community. All other provisions relating to design guidelines remain the same and conform to those of SPA-6 and therefore warrant no further discussion. Residential Architectural designs within the RES-2 land use designation shall generally conform to SPA-6 and the architectural styles included throughout Summerly so as to provide design consistency. However, more specifically, the architectural styles shall be modified to accommodate the specific housing types and sizes permitted within the RES-2 land use designation. Two story homes are permitted and there is no obligation to provide single story homes. Driveway depths shall be full size (18’) and front yard setbacks reduced to 10 feet to encourage an articulated and varied streetscape. Landscape Since SPA-6 was adopted, the State of California has been in a state of drought. The Governor’s Executive Order and the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) require new mandates for water restrictions in California. The mandates necessitate the Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District (EVMWD) and its users to reduce water-use by 28 percent. As a result EVMWD, and subsequently the City of Lake Elsinore, have new guidelines and landscape practices to reflect these new regulatory guidelines. The new landscape standards will preserve the community design objectives of the East Lake Specific Plan to promote an environmentally sensitive open space/recreationally oriented community as Specific Plan Amendment 6 Erratum Summerly 16 January 2016 envisioned in Section 6.2 of the East Lake Specific Plan. The following guiding documents currently govern the regulatory guidelines for landscape on the Project Site: 1. The City of Lake Elsinore Municipal Code Chapter 19.08: Water Efficient Landscape Requirements (Appendix 1) 2. The Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District (EVMWD) Resolution No. 15-05-05: A Resolution of the Board of Directors of EVMWD to Propose Water Efficient Landscape Standards for Adoption by Local Agencies (Appendix 2) As a result of the regulatory changes pertaining to landscaping and irrigation, this SPA-6 Erratum incorporates reference to the updated landscape design guidelines required by the City of Lake Elsinore and EVMWD. The landscaping for the Project Site shall be designed consistent with these regulations or more current landscape guidelines should they be adopted prior to construction. Since the on-going drought and associated legislation is changing rapidly, instead of providing specific guidelines within this SPA-6 Erratum, landscaping on the Project Site shall conform to the most current landscape guidelines adopted by the City and EVMWD. K. Development Standards This section of the SPA-6 Errata sets out the site development criteria applicable to the Project Site. The SPA-6 Errata incorporates changes to regulations relating to setbacks, and driveway length. All other development standards included in SPA-6 apply. The following development standards apply to the Project Site: Residential Development Regulations Each required setback shall be maintained open and unobstructed from the ground upward, except for trees, other plant materials, and the storage of City-provided refuse containers in single-family side or rear setbacks. A. Permitted Uses  Single family detached homes B.
