TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Grant Yates, City Manager
DATE: April 24, 2015
SUBJECT: Discussion of Strategic Priorities & Key Initiatives
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council discuss its short- and long-term strategic priorities
in regards to each of the following seven key initiatives:
• Economic Development
• Transportation
• Recreation
• Service
• Education
• Image
• Public Safety
Discussion
A Strategic Visioning Session is an ideal opportunity for the City Council to spend some
time discussing openly what the strategic priorities should be to achieve the City's vision.
Two years ago the City Council conducted a similar workshop to determine its Vision
Statement, which is to become "the ultimate lake destination where all can live, work, and
play, build futures and fulfill dreams." At this time, the City Council also identified seven
key initiatives: public safety, recreation, transportation, economic development, image,
education, and service. These initiatives were chosen to ensure that staff's efforts and
programs are consistent with this vision.
During the session, the City Council will review key projects and steps that have been
completed in regards to these initiatives and explore long- and short-term strategic
priorities associated with each. Public comments will be allowed at the beginning and end
of the workshop and the community has been encouraged to join us to share their ideas.

REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR
AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: GRANT YATES
CITY MANAGER
DATE: APRIL 24, 2015
SUBJECT: DRAFT STANDARD CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
Recommendation
Consider staff's presentation on proposed standard conditions of approval for new
development projects, discuss and provide comments, and direct staff to fine tune such
conditions with the City Attorney.
Backaround
Municipalities implement conditions of approval on discretionary projects to provide
consistency with their General Plans, Specific Plans, Zoning Codes, Municipal Codes,
Subdivision Map Act and CEQA documents.
Staff has been striving to provide improved standard conditions of approval consistent
with industry standards and model cities to present to the City Council. Attached for
your consideration and comments are draft standard conditions for new residential
projects and new commercial / industrial projects.
Conditions of approval imposed on new development must be reasonably related to the
development's impacts. Consequently, each discretionary project will have customized
conditions of approval based upon the type of permit, the unique project setting, project
characteristics and project impacts. The attached lists of draft conditions of approval
are intended as standard boiler plate conditions generally applicable to all like projects.
The General Plan is the State mandated land use road map to guide development in the
City for the next 20 to 30 years. The attached General Plan document adopted by the
City Council in December 2011 identifies goals and policies set forth in the seven
mandatory elements as well as optional elements. Goals and policies in bold
specifically identify the conditions of approval and/or mitigation measures that shall be
imposed on development projects.
Draft Standard Conditions of Approval
City Council April 24, 2015
Page 2 of 3
The Lake Elsinore Municipal Code (LEMC) is the tool that implements the City's
General Plan and has multiple chapters setting forth regulations that are included in
development entitlements as conditions of approval to include but not limited to:
.Title 17, Zoning
.Chapter 17.184, Design Review
*Chapter 17.168, Conditional Use Permits
*Chapter 17.172, Variances
•Chapter 14.08, Stormwater / Urban Runoff Management
-Title 16, Subdivisions
.Chapter 16.34.010, Required Improvements
*Chapter 16.44.010, Street Improvements
.Chapter 16.74, Development Impact Fees
*Chapter 16.83, TUMF
-Subdivision Map Act
•SMP 66473.5, Consistency with General Plan or Specific Plan
Discussion
The City's standard conditions of approval currently being implemented should be
updated to reflect existing laws and regulations, avoid inconsistencies, eliminate
redundant or duplicative conditions, and replace ambiguous language with clearly
written conditions of approval. Like General Plans and zoning codes, conditions of
approval should be living documents subject to regular periodic reviews to ensure
quality, fairness, keeping up with state mandates, technology, economic trends and
policies set forth by the City Council.
Conditions of approval are set forth for each discretionary project by all departments
and divisions within the City. City departments/divisions include:
*Planning
*Building and Safety
*Fire
.Public Works
-Engineering
.Community Services
*Administrative Services
Draft Standard Conditions of Approval
City Council April 24, 2015
Page 3 of 3
In addition to conditions prepared by City Departments, conditions of approval are
included in Mitigation, Monitoring and Reporting Programs from CEQA documentation.
Native American Tribes also request conditions of approval through the SB 18 process.
Conditions of approval are also requested by utility companies, as well as regional,
state and federal agencies.
Due to the ever increasing and stringent regulations set forth by State and Federal
regulatory agencies, Public Works/Engineering conditions of approval are the most
numerous and complicated.
Staff reviewed and evaluated conditions of approval from recently approved projects in
the City of Lake Elsinore and also researched standard conditions of approval from
what we consider modern and progressive cities in the area including:
*Temecula
.Murrieta
-Rancho Cucamonga
*Carlsbad
Some conditions of approval from the above -identified four cities have been included in
the attachments. Many of the standard conditions of approval imposed by the City of
Lake Elsinore are also utilized by the four cities but often the language varies.
Standard conditions of approval provide certainty and fairness to the development
community, and ensure that the City will be maintained and grows in a positive and
aesthetically pleasing manner consistent with applicable laws and regulations while still
implementing City Council policy direction.
Fiscal Impact
The only fiscal impact associated with this staff report was staff time to review,
research, prepare and draft this document. Providing appropriate conditions of approval
serves to protect the City, ensure developers pay their fair share, and that no financial
burden is placed on the City with unnecessary or unforeseen operations and/or
maintenance obligations.
