A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA,
RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE APPROVAL OF GENERAL
PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2005-08 AMENDING THE
CITY'S BOUNDARY TO INCORPORATE PARCELS
SPECIFICALLY DESCRIBED AS (APN(S) 365-220-026, 365-
230-001, 005, 006, 007, 009, 010, 011, 012, AND 013
WHEREAS, Vicki Mata, Trumark Companies has initiated proceedings to amend the
General Plan Land Use Map by requesting a General Plan Amendment changing the City's
boundary to incorporate parcels known as Assessor Parcel Number(s) 365-220-026, 365-230-001,
005,006,007,009,010,011,012, AND 013; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore has been delegated with
the responsibility of making recommendations to the City Council for changes to the approved
General Plan Land Use Map; and
WHEREAS, public notice of said application 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 February 21, 2006;
NOW THEREFORE, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore DOES
HEREBY RESOLVE as follows:
SECTION 1. The Planning Commission has considered the proposed General Plan
Amendment No. 2005-08, prior to making a decision to recommend that the City Council approve
the proposed amendment to the City's boundary line. The Planning Commission fInds and
determines that Negative Declaration No. 2006-02 is adequate and prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) which analyzes environmental
effects of ends City Council certification, based upon the following findings and determinations:
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning law and the City of Lake
Elsinore the following findings for the approval of General Plan Amendment No. 2005-08 have
been made as follows:
1. The proposed General Plan Amendment will not be; a) detrimental to the health, safety,
comfort or general welfare of the persons residing or working within the neighborhood of
the proposed amendment or within the City, or b) injurious to the property or
improvements in the neighborhood or within the City.
The proposed General Plan Amendment has been analyzed relative to its potential to be detrimental to the
health, safery, comfort and we!fare of the persons residing or working within the neighborhood of the proposed
amendment. The existing designation of Very Low Densiry Residential and Mountainous area is similar to
the Rural Residential and Mountainous Residential designated in the Counry General Plan. Further, staff,
concluded, that the proposal to develop the site under the Specific Plan designation assures that the
development standards and design guidelines of the Specific Plan will be consistentlY applied.
PLANNING COMMISION RESOLUTION FOR
GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 2005-08
Page 2 of3
2. The proposed General Plan Amendment will permit reasonable development of the area
consistent with its constraints and will make the area more compatible with adjacent
properties.
The existing City General Plan designation oj Very Low Density and Mountainous area are similar and
consistent with the County's General Plan designation oj futral and Mountainous Residential. Therefore,
there is little significant change to the anticipated land use for the site.
3. The proposed General Plan Amendment would establish a land use designation and usage
more in character with the subject property's location, access, and constraints.
The General Plan Amendment proposes a boundary acjjustment and would keep a designation in
conformance with the existing City General Plan oj Very Low Density and Mountainous area, as well as be
consistent with the County's General Plan designation ojfutral and Mountainous Residential. In addition,
the density is appropriate for the site's development conditions because it accommodates a range oj site
constraints, and permits a seamless integration with the acjjacent Cm!)lon Hills Specific Plan area, while
remaining sensitive to the acjjacent rural residential land uses
4. The proposed General Plan Amendment will not have a significant effect on the
envltonment.
The General Plan Amendment does not propose a'!Y significant change to existing land use designations and
will not result in a'!Y significant environmental impact. All environmental impacts have been reduced to the
level oj insignificance I?Y prqject design and Negative Declaration No. 2006-02 has been prepared.
NOW, THEREFORE, based on the above findings, the Planning Commission of the City
of Lake Elsinore DOES HEREBY RECOMMEND that the City Council of the City of Lake
Elsinore approve General Plan Amendment No. 2005-08.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING
COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LAKE
ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING
FINDINGS OF CONSISTENCY WITH SECTION
6.1.2 OF THE MULTIPLE SPECIES HABITAT
CONSERVATION PLAN (MSHCP) FOR THE
PROJECT KNOWN AS "BROADSTONE RIVERS
EDGE APARTMENTS".
WHEREAS, a site specific focused survey for Narrow Endemic Plant Species is required
by Section 6.1.2 of the Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSCHP) for the purpose of
developing a multi-family apartment complex; and
WHEREAS, the City of Lake Elsinore evaluated the consistency of the project with the
(MSHCP); and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore has been delegated
with the responsibility of adopting the Findings of Consistency with the MSHCP; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has considered and approved the request by staff
on February 21,2006; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore DOES HEREBY
RESOL VE as follows:
The Biological Survey Report prepared by PSOMAS. has been prepared, submitted and
reviewed in accordance with requirements of the Multiple Species Habitat Conservation
Plan (MSHCP). The report is complete and adequate in it's evaluation of all
environmental effects of the project known as Broadstone Rivers Edge Apartments and
will not preclude the implementation of the MSHCP goals, based on the following
findings;
FINDINGS-MULTIPLE SPEOES HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN
1. The proposed project is a project under the City's MSHCP Resolution that must make an
MSHCP Consistency finding before approval.
Pursuant to the City's MSHCP Resolution, because the proposed project requires a
number of discretionary approvals from the City and is subject to CEQA review, it must
be reviewed for MSHCP consistency, which entails for the proposed project determining
whether it is subject to the City's LEAP process, consistent with; Protection of
Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pool Guidelines (MSHCP, S 6.1.2), Protection of
Narrow Endemic Plant Species Guidelines (MSHCP, S 6.1.3), Additional Survey Needs
and Procedures (MSHCP, S 6.3.2), Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines (MSHCP, S
6.3.2), Vegetation Mapping (MSHCP, S 6.3.1) requirements, Fuels Management
Guidelines (MSHCP, ~ 6.4), and payment of the MSHCP Local Development Mitigation
Fee (MSHCP Ordinance, ~ 4).
2. The proposed project is subject to the Joint Project Review process.
According to the Multi-Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP), the footprint of the
project site is located within the Elsinore Area Plan. This Area Plan, the County's RCIP
Website (see httv://www.rcip.orfI/mavs.htm). and the (MSHCP) Conservation Summary
Report Generator Sheet for the Assessor Parcel Numbers (APN) see
http://rcip.org/PDFlib/rciv/avn search. asp) show that the proposed project is located
within Subunit 3, Proposed Linkage 8, and comprises a portion of Independent Cell No.
4743 of the Elsinore Area Plan and is subject to the City's Lake Elsinore's Acquisition
Process (LEAP) process.
3. The proposed project is consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pools
Guidelines.
According to correspondence dated March 30, 2005, from PSOMAS "The proposed
project site does not contain any jurisdictional areas or vernal pools". Accordingly, the
project will achieve consistency with the requirements of the Riparian/Riverine Areas
and Vernal Pools Guidelines of Section 6.1.2 of the MSHCP
4. The proposed project is consistent with the Protection of Narrow Endemic Plant Species
Guidelines.
Multi-Species Conservation Plan (MSHCP) records indicate that as many as seven
Narrow Endemic Plan Species could potentially exist on the project site. However,
according to the Biological Assessment entitled "Habitat Assessment Report for Covered
Sensitive Species and Habitats" prepared by PSOMAS on March 30, 2005, the site is
dominated by non-native grasses including wild oats and broames. No plants indicative
of saline or alkaline environments were observed onsite. Moreover, it was concluded that
the occurrence of the plant species is inconsistent with the dense matting of non-native
grasses that exist onsite. To assure that the plant species are not impacted by project
development, as a condition of project approval, additional pre-construction surveys may
be undertaken if determined necessary prior to commencement of grading activities
onsite. The proposed project is therefore consistent with the Protection of Narrow
Endemic Plant Species Guidelines.
5. The proposed project is consistent with the Additional Survey Needs and Procedures.
The project site falls within the Burrowing Owl Survey Area. However, it was determined
that the species is not expected to occur on-site due to the lack of suitable habitat. The
project is therefore consistent with the Additional Survey Needs Requirements.
6. The proposed project is consistent with the Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines.
Measures have been incorporated into the proposed project so that there will be no
project-related drainage, toxics, lighting, noise, invasives, barriers, and grading/land
development impacts to the Conservation Area. The proposed project is therefore
consistent with the Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines.
7. The proposed project is consistent with the Vegetation Mapping requirements.
The vegetation of the entire project site has been mapped. This mapping is sufficient
under the MSHCP and is consistent with the MSHCP.
8. The proposed project is consistent with the Fuels Management Guidelines.
The proposed project has been designed to include landscape buffers near the proposed
MSHCP Conservation Area that will in essence act as Fuel Modification Zones. Within
these areas there will be fire-resistant, non-invasive plants. Accordingly, with these
measures, the proposed project is therefore consistent with the Fuels Management
Guidelines.
9. The proposed project will be conditioned to pay the City's MSHCP Local Development
Mitigation Fee.
As a condition of approval, the project will be required to pay the City's MSHCP Local
Development Mitigation Fee at the time of issuance of building permits. The current fee
for residential development with a density of greater than 14.1 dwelling units per acre is
$859 per dwelling unit.
10. The proposed project overall is consistent with the MSHCP.
The proposed project footprint complies does not preclude the implementation,
procedures, policies, and guidelines of the City's MSHCP Resolution and the MSHCP.
NOW, THEREFORE, based on the above findings, the Planning Commission of the City
of Lake Elsinore DOES HEREBY ADOPT the Findings of Consistency Se .on 6.1.2 of the
MSHCP..

FINDINGS - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
1. The proposed use, on its own merits and within the context of its setting, is
in accord with the objectives of the General Plan and the purpose of the
planning district in which the site is located.
In order to achieve a well balanced and functional mix of residential,
commercial, industrial, open space, recreational and institutional land uses,
staff has thoroughly evaluated the land use compatibility, noise, traffic and
other environmental hazards related to the proposed Conditional Use
Permit for a Condominium Community located at Assessor Parcel

2. The proposed use will not be detrimental to the general health, safety,
comfort, or general welfare of persons residing or working within the
neighborhood of the proposed use or the City, or injurious to property or
improvements in the neighborhood or the City.
In accord with the purposes of the Chapter 17. 74 (Conditional Use Permits)

condominium use located at Assessor Parcel Number(s) 374-271-003, 004,
007, 013, 015 and 016 may have a potential to negatively impact the welfare
of persons residing or working within the neighborhood or the City.
Considering this, staff has substantiated that all applicable City
Departments and Agencies have been afforded the opportunity for a
thorough review of the use and have incorporated all applicable comments
and/or conditions related to installation and maintenance of landscaping,
street dedications, regulations of points of vehicular ingress and egress and

Elsinore Architectural Design Guidelines.
The proposed condominium use located at Assessor Parcel Number(s) 374-
271-003,004, 007, 013, 015 and 016 has been designed in consideration of
the size and shape of the property, thereby strengthening and enhancing the

complement the quality of existing development and will create a visually
pleasing, non-detractive relationship between the proposed and existing
projects, in that the condominium community has been reviewed to ensure
adequate provision of screening from the public rights-of-way or adjacent
properties.
4. The site for the proposed use relates to streets and highways with proper
design both as to width and type of pavement to carry the type and quantity
of traffic generated by the subject use.
The proposed condominium use located at Assessor Parcel Number(s) 374-
271-003, 004, 007, 013, 015 and 016 has been reviewed as to its relation to
the width and type of pavement needed to carry the type and quantity of
traffic generated, in that the City has adequately evaluated the potential
impacts associated with the proposed condominium community prior to its
approval and has conditioned the project to be served by roads of adequate
capacity and design standards to provide reasonable access by car, truck,
transit, and bicycle.
5. In approving the subject use located at Assessor Parcel Number(s) 374-271-
003, 004, 007, 013, 015 and 016, there will be no adverse affect on abutting
property or the permitted and normal use thereof.
The proposed use has been thoroughly reviewed and conditioned by all
applicable City Departments and outside Agencies, eliminating the potential
for any and all adverse effects on the abutting property.
6. Adequate conditions and safeguards pursuant to Section 17.74.50 of the
LEMC have been incorporated into the approval of the Conditional Use

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 request for
Conditional Use Permit No. 2005-24 and has found it acceptable. The Planning Commission
finds and determines that this project is consistent with the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code

SECTION 2. That in accordance with LEMC Chapter 17.74 (Conditional Use Permits),
the Planning Commission makes the following findings:
1. The proposed use, on its own merits and within the context of its setting, is in accord with
the objectives of the General Plan and the purpose of the planning district in which the
site is located.
In order to achieve a well balanced and functional mix of residential, commercial,
industrial, open space, recreational and institutional land uses, staff has evaluated the
land use compatibility, noise, traffic and other environmental hazards related to the

welfare of persons residing or working within the neighborhood of the proposed use or
the City, or injurious to property or improvements in the neighborhood or the City.
In accord with the purposes of the Chapter 17. 74 (Conditional Use Permits) of the
LEMC, staff considered that the proposed condominium use may potentially have a
negative impact on the welfare of persons residing or working within the neighborhood
or the City. Considering this, all applicable City Departments and Agencies have been
afforded the opportunity to review the use and have provide comments and/or conditions
related to installation and maintenance of landscaping, street dedications, regulations of
points of vehicular ingress and egress and control of potential nuisances. Those
comments have been integrated into the planning of this project so as to eliminate any
negative impacts to the general health, safety, comfort, or general welfare of the
surrounding neighborhood or the City.
3. The site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the use, along
with the yards, setbacks, walls or fences, landscaping, buffers and other features required
by Title 17 of the LEMC and the Historic Elsinore Architectural Design Guidelines.
The proposed condominium use has been designed in consideration of the size and shape
of the property, thereby strengthening and enhancing the immediate residential area.
Further, the project as proposed, will complement the quality of existing development
and will create a visually pleasing, non-detractive relationship between the proposed and
existing projects, in that the condominium community has been designed to ensure
adequate provision of screening .from the public rights-ol-way and adjacent properties.
4. The site for the proposed use relative to streets and highways is properly designed as to
width, type of pavement and quantity of traffic generated by the subject use.
The proposed condominium use has been reviewed as to its relation to the width and type
of pavement needed to carry the type and quantity of traffic generated, in that the City
has adequately evaluated the potential impacts associated with the proposed
condominium community prior to its approval and has conditioned the project to be
served by roads of adequate capacity and design standards to provide reasonable access
by car, truck, transit, and bicycle.
5. In approving the subject use located at Assessor Parcel Number(s) 379-341-015 and 016,
there will be no adverse affect on abutting property or the permitted and normal use
thereof.
The proposed use has been reviewed and conditioned by all applicable city departments
and outside agencies, eliminating the potential for adverse effects on the abutting
property.

NOW THEREFORE, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore DOES
HEREBY RESOLVE as follows:
SECTION 1. The Planning Commission has considered the proposed Tentative Tract Map
No. 25473 Revision No. 1. The Planning Commission fInds and determines that the project known
as "Tuscany West" is consistent with all of the required procedures, policies, guidelines and
provisions of the MSHCP based on the following fIndings:
MSHCP CONSISTENCY FINDINGS
1. The proposed project is a project under the City's MSHCP Resolution, and the City must
make an MSHCP Consistency fInding before approval.
The proposed prqject requires a number of discretionary approvals from the Ciry and is suo/ect to CEQA
review. Pursuant to the Ciry's MSHCP Resolution, the project must be reviewed for MSHCP consistenry,
consistent with the Protection of Species Associated with Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pool

MSHCP CONSISTENCY FOR TUSCANY WEST
PAGE THREE OF FIVE
The project site is located outside of a'!)! Critical Area species SU17Jry Area (CASSA) ftr plants and
manmmals and no CASSA plant species were obse17Jed during the ftcused SU17Jrys ftr the site. However, the
project site is located within the area ftr Burrowing Owl S U17Jry. A burrowing owl habitat and burrow SU17Jry
was conducted on the prqject site and an aqjacent 4.2 acres in August 2004 f?y PCR Services Corporation.
The habitat assessment ftund that the stucfy area exhibited multiple kry indicators of suitable burrowing owl
habitat including occurrence of low-growing vegetation and the presence of small ftssorial mammal burrows.
However, no burrowing owl sign was obse17Jed during the habitat assessment and burrow SU17Jry.
AdditionallY, the site was sU17Jryed on multiple occasions during other ftcused SU17Jrys f?y biologists familiar
with the burrowing owL No owls were obse17Jed during a'!)! of these SU17Jrys. BUfTowing owl is not expected to
occur within the burrowing owl stucfy area. Therefore, the prqject is consistent with the policies of MSHCP
Section 6.3.2.
6. The proposed project is consistent with the Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines.
The project site is located adjacent to land that has been set aside for conservation.
Therefore, the project is required to comply with the policies set forth in Section 6.1.4 of
the MSHCP. Through implementation of mitigation measures, the project will minimize
the adverse effects of the project on conservation configuration and would minimize
management challenges that can arise from development being located adjacent to
conserved habitat; and will be consistent with the policies set forth in Section 6.1.4.
The following mitigation measures will be implemented by the project to minimize the
identified potential indirect impacts to adjacent conserved habitat:
. All project runoff will be treated prior to exiting the site to reduce toxins.
. Detention basins proposed within the project ftotprint will ensure that there is no zncrease in flows
from the project into MSHCP Prese17Je.
. All project lighting (including that belonging to private properry owners) will be required to be
selectivelY placed and directed/shielded awqy from prese17Jed habitats. In addition, lar;ge spotlight-
(ype backyard lighting directed into conse17Jed habitat will be prohibited through homeowner
Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs).
. No plants included on the California Exotic Pest Plant Council's list of invasive species or in
Table 6-2 of the MSHCP will be used a'!)!where on the site, and onlY native species will be planted
aqjacent to open space areas. A list of prohibited species will be provided to homeblfYers and enftrced
through CC&Rs.
. The proposed project has been designed so that no additional take of conse17Jed habitat will be
necessary ftr fuel modification purposes.

. Enclosure fences (wood and tubular steeO shall be installed along the inteiface where
residential development abuts natural habitat. Educational signs will be posted at potential access
points into the preserve to inform residents of the wildlife habitat value of the open space and to
minimize intrusions.
. Manufactured slopes associated with the proposed site development will not extend into the MSHCP
Conse17Jation Area.
The proposed project is therefore consistent with the Urban/Wildlands Inteiface Guidelines.
7. The proposed project is consistent with the Vegetation Mapping requirements.
The vegetation of the prqject site has been mapped as part of the Ciry's LEAP application. This mapping is
consistent with MSHCP mapping protocol. The mapping is sufficient under the MSHCP and is consistent
with the MSHCP requirements.
8. The proposed project is consistent with the Fuels Management Guidelines.
The proposed project has been designed to include Fuel Modification Zones along its north and west
boundaries in open space acfjacent to the Conse17Jation Areas. The proposed project has been designed so that
no additional take of conserved habitat will be necessary for fuel modification purposes. Within the project
open space area plantings are limited to fire-resistant, non-invasive native species from the list contained
within the MSHCP Ordinance and reviewed !?J the Ciry's Fire Department. All fuel management areas
will exist outside of the MSHCP Conse17Jation Area. The proposed prqject is therefore consistent with the
Fuels Management Guidelines.
9. The proposed project will be conditioned to pay the City's MSHCP Local Development
Mitigation Fee.
Condition of Approval No. 20 requires that prior to the issuance of a building permit the applicant pqy the
Ciry's Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan Local Development Mitigation Fee in effect at that time.
The current fee for residential development with a densiry of less than 8.0 dwelling units per acre is $1,651
per dwelling unit.
10. The proposed project overall is consistent with the MSHCP.
The Ciry received a letter dated February 27, 2006, from Thomas B. Mullen, Interim Executive Director
of the Western Riverside Regional Conse17Jation Authoriry. Mr. Mullen states:
'The mitigation of the Ramsgate SP included... the Tuscatry West tentative map. I worked extensivelY with
Mr. Shopoff on getting land assembled and preserved to keep the entire MSHCP intact and movingforward.
The prese17Jation of the mitigated lands for the Ramsgate SP helped to insure that the permits were signed. As

Guidelines (MSHCP, J 6.1.2), Protection of Narrow Endemic Plant Species Guidelines (MSHCP, J
6.1.3), Additional Surory Needs and Procedures (MSHCP, J 6.3.2), Urban/Wildlands Inteiface
Guidelines (MSHCP, J 6.1.4), Vegetation Mapping (MSHCP, J 6.3.1) requirements, Fuels
Management Guidelines (MSHCP, J 6.4), and pqyment of the MSHCP Local Development Mitigation
Fee (MSHCP Ordinance, J 4).
2. The proposed project is subject to the City's LEAP and the County's Joint Project Review
processes.
The project site is within the MSHCP Lake Elsinore Area Plan and within the criteria area, therefore a
fonnal LEAP (Lake Elsinore Acquisition Process) application, LEAP 2005-09, was submitted to the
City on JulY 8,2005.
This application and documentation was reviewed !?J the City and it was detennined that no additional
conseroation is required for compliance with the MSHCP. The City's LEAP detennination was submitted
to the Western Riverside County Regional Conseroation Authority (RCA) for its Joint Project Review
(JPR).
3. The proposed project is consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vemal Pools
Guidelines.
No vernal pools exist on the site and therefore vernal pool species are not expected to occur. Impacts to
riparian habitats are limited to those necessary for construction of La Strada Road, which is a circulation
element roadwqy on the City's General Plan. Remaining impacts to Riparian/Riverine resources are limited
to non-wet/and Waters of the U.S. Impacts to the small riparian area and unvegetated drainages will be
mitigated through acquisition of credits from the Riverside-Corona Resource Conseroation District Mitigation
Bank, which provides significant enhancement to riparian habitat along the Santa Ana River.
4. The proposed project is consistent with the Protection of Narrow Endemic Plant Species
Guidelines.
The project site is not located within the Narrow Endemic Plant Species Surory Areas (NEPSSA).
Therefore, no focused surorys are not required for Narrow Endemic Plant Species. AdditionallY, no
NEPSSA species were obseroed duringfocused biological surorys conducted on the project site. Based on its
location outside of af!} NEP SA and the lack of af!} NEP S SA species being obseroed during focused
surorys, the project is consistent with MSHCP Section 6.1.3.
5. The proposed project is consistent with the Additional Survey Needs and Procedures.

part of these negotiations with Mr. S hopoff, it was agreed that the mitigation lands would applY to the
development ofTuscaf!Y West."
Staff concurs that the map is consistent with the MSRCP and provides effective conseroation on the prqject
site to meet the biological issues and considerations of the MSRCP.
.
11. There is no substantial evidence, in the light of the whole record before the agency, that the
project as revised may have significant effect on the environment.
NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to the above findings, the Planning Commission of the
City of Lake Elsinore, California, DOES HEREBY RECOMMEND that the CitY- ouncil that the
City of Lake Elsinore adopt the Findings of Consistency hereof.

OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY FOR THE
ESTABLISHMENT AND OPERATION OF A GAS STATION
FACILITY WITH THE CONCURRENT SALE OF
ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES LOCATED AT ASSESSOR
PARCEL NO. 377-120-007
WHEREAS, Oak Grove Equities Inc., has initiated proceedings in
accordance with Lake Elsinore Municipal Code ("LEMC") Section 17.38.090.0. to
request the approval for the sale of alcoholic (beer and wine) beverages for off-site
consumption within a convenience store and gas station proposed on the northwest
comer of Collier Avenue and Central Avenue; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore has
been delegated with the responsibility of approving Conditional Use Permits and
making findings of public convenience or necessity; and
WHEREAS, public notice of the application 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 June 20, 2006.
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
Conditional Use Permit 2005-23. The Planning Commission finds and determines
that the proposal is not a project given that is recommended for denial and
therefore is not subject to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
provisions, based on the following findings and determinations:
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning law and
the LEMC, the Planning Commission makes the following findings for the denial
of the Conditional Use Permit No. 2005-23:
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-59
PAGE20F5
FINDINGS - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
1. The proposed use, on its own merits and within the context of its setting, is
in accord with the objectives of the General Plan and the purpose of the
planning district in which the site is located.
The proposed use for the sale of alcoholic beverages may be detrimental to
the general health, safety, comfort, or general welfare of persons residing or
working within the neighborhood of the proposed use or the City, or
injurious to property or improvements in the neighborhood or the City. The
location of the proposed use has been found to be within a designated high
crime area and is within a census tract deemed over concentrated with
alcohol sales licenses. Accordingly, there are a sufficient number of
businesses that provide the public with locations to buy alcoholic beverages
for off-premise consumption and an additional location will have no benefit
to the community.
2. The proposed use will not be detrimental to the general health, safety,
comfort, or general welfare of persons residing or working within the
neighborhood of the proposed use or the City, or injurious to property or
improvements in the neighborhood or the City.
In accord with the purposes of the Chapter 17.74 (Conditional Use Permits)
of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, the City realized that the proposed
alcohol sales located at Assessor Parcel Number 377-120-007 may have a
potential to negatively impact the welfare of persons residing or working
within the neighborhood or the City. The location of the proposed use has
been found to be within a State designated high crime area and is within a
census tract deemed over concentrated with alcoholic sales licenses.
3. The site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate
the use, and for all the yards, setbacks, walls or fences, landscaping, buffers
and other features required by Title 17 of the LEMC.
The proposed alcohol use located at Assessor Parcel Number 377-120-007
does not comply with Design Directives sections 17.82.060.A&B of the
LEMC given that the facility, as designed, does not sufficiently create
interest at this major commercial intersection for persons and motorists
moving along the street. Moreover, the proposed design concept does not
create a visually pleasing, non-detractive relationship between the proposed
and existing projects in the area given that the project lacks significant
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-59
PAGE 3 OF 5
building articulation and architectural interest and lacks a sufficient amount
of onsite landscaping to frame and soften proposed structures.
4. The site for the proposed use relates to streets and highways with proper
design both as to width and type of pavement to carry the type and quantity
of traffic generated by the subject use.
The proposed alcohol use located at Assessor Parcel Number 377-120-007
has been reviewed as to its relation to the width and type of pavement
needed to carry the type and quantity of traffic generated, in that the City
has adequately evaluated the potential impacts associated with the proposed
uses prior to its approval and has conditioned the project to be served by
roads of adequate capacity and design standards to provide reasonable
access by car, truck, transit, and bicycle.
5. In approving the subject use located at Assessor Parcel Number 377-120-
007 there will be no adverse affect on abutting property or the permitted and
normal use thereof.
The proposed use has been thoroughly reviewed by all applicable City
Departments and outside agencies. The location of the proposed use for
alcohol sales is within a State designated high crime area and within a
census tract that has been deemed over concentrated with alcohol sales
licenses by the State Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control. Therefore,
the potential does exist for any and all adverse effects on the abutting
property.
6. Adequate conditions and safeguards pursuant to Section 17.74.50 of the
LEMC have been incorporated into the approval of the Conditional Use
Permit to insure that the use continues in a manner envisioned by these
findings for the term of the use.
Pursuant to Section 17.74.050 (Action of the Planning Commission) of the
Lake Elsinore Municipal Code (LEMC), the proposed alcohol sales located
at Assessor Parcel Number 377-120-007 has been scheduled for
consideration and approval of the Planning Commission.
SECTION 3. That in accordance with California Business and Professions
Code Section 23958.4 and the LEMC, the Planning Commission makes the
following findings regarding the Public Convenience or Necessity of the alcoholic
beverage sales at the proposed site:
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-59
PAGE 4 OF 5
FINDINGS - PUBLIC CONVENIENCE OR NECESSITY
1. Does the proposed establishment have any unique features, which are not
found in other similar uses in the community (i.e. types of games, types of
food, and other special services)?
No. There are no unique features offered. Instead the store and gas station
offers convenience and quick access to products that are commonly
purchased by customers. Similar types of facilities are located in the nearby
area.
2. Does the proposed establishment cater to an under-served population (i.e.
patrons of different socio-economic class)?
No. There are other similar establishments within the area which adequately
serve the surrounding population.
3. Does the proposed establishment provide entertainment which would fill a
niche in the community (i.e. comedy club, jazz club, etc)?
The applicant is not proposing any entertainment for this proposed use. If
the entire commercial activity is considered, the proposed establishment
does provide gas station facilities for the traveling public.
4. Are there any geographical boundaries (i.e. rivers, hillsides) or traffic
barriers (i.e. freeways, major roads, major intersections) separating the
proposed establishment from other establishments?
Yes, the intersection of Collier Avenue and Central Avenue is signalized,
which includes a pedestrian crosswalk. In addition, there is and
approximately eight foot (8') change of grade from the street level to the pad
as graded for the proposed establishment.
S. Is the proposed establishment located in an area where there is a significant
influx of population during certain seasonal periods?
No. This proposed commercial activity is located so as to serve the local
community of commuters and residents.
6. Is there a proliferation of licensed establishments within a quarter mile of the
proposed establishment?
According to ABC, there is a proliferation of similar establishments within a
quarter mile of the site and the census tract in which the project is located
has been deemed over concentrated. As required by the ABC, only three (3)
licenses for Type 20 or Type 21 -off-sale beer and wine license are allowed
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-59
PAGE50F5
for this particular census tract. Currently, there are ten (l0) such licenses
being used.
7. Are there any sensitive uses (i.e. schools, parks, hospitals, churches) in close
proximity ( 600 feet) to the proposed establishment?
No. There are no sensitive uses within 600 feet of the project site.
8. Would the proposed establishment interfere with the quiet enjoyment of
their property by the residents of the area?
No. The developer and the applicant have made every effort to maintain the
quiet enjoyment of the residences in the area.
9. Will the proposed establishment add to the law enforcement problems in the
area?
The Police Chief has included a letter in the Staff Report which opposes the
proposed use due to the site being located within a high crime area.
SECTION 4. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.

RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA,
RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF LAKE ELSINORE DENIAL OF A COMMERCIAL DESIGN
REVIEW NO. 2005-10 FOR A 7-ELEVEN CONVENIENCE
STORE AND AN ASSOCIATED GAS STATION WITHIN THE
OAK GROVE CROSSING SHOPPING CENTER LOCATED
AT APN 377-120-007.
WHEREAS, Glen Daigle, Oak Grove Equities Inc. has initiated
proceedings for Commercial Design Review No. 2005-10 for the design and
construction of a 7-Eleven convenience store and an associated gas station with
related improvements located at APN 377-120-007; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore has
been delegated with the responsibility of making recommendations to the City
Council for Design Reviews; and
WHEREAS, public notice of said application 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 June 20, 2006.
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 Commercial
Design Review No. 2005-10 prior to making a decision to recommend that the City
Council deny the proposed convenience store and gas station. The Planning
Commission finds and determines that the proposal is not a project given that it is
being recommended for denial and therefore is not subject to California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) provisions.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning Law and
the City of Lake Elsinore, the following findings for the denial of the Commercial
Design Review No. 2005-10 have been made as follows:
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.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-60
PAGE20F3
The proposed Commercial Design Review for a convenience store and
associated gas station located within Assessor Parcel Number(s) 377-120-
007 does not comply with the goals and objectives of the General Plan in
that the site design and building architecture proposed for the facility do
not comply with the City Wide Design Guidelines as specified in Sections
lb.] and 1.b.2 of the Community Design Element. The proposed design does
not provide the adequate amount of building articulation, building materials
or onsite landscaping necessary to sufficiently enhance the aesthetics of the
site.
2. The project complies with the design directives contained in Section
17.82.060 and all other applicable provisions of the Municipal Code.
The proposed Commercial Design Review for a convenience store and
associated gas station located at Assessor Parcel Number(s) 377-120-007
does not comply with Design Directive sections 17.82.060.A&B given that
the facility, as designed, does not sufficiently create interest at this major
commercial intersection for persons moving along the street. Moreover, the
proposed design concept does not create a visually pleasing, non-detractive
relationship between the proposed and existing projects in the area given
that the project lacks significant building articulation and architectural
interest and a sufficient amount of onsite landscaping to frame and soften
proposed structures.
3. Subject to the attached Conditions of Approval, the proposed project is not
anticipated to result in any significant adverse environmental impacts.
The proposed Commercial Design Review for a convenience store and
associated gas station, located at Assessor Parcel Number 377-120-007 is
being recommended for denial and therefore, does not constitute a project
as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act. Should the Planning
Commission and City Council choose to support the project, an
environmental determination and necessary environmental analysis must be
undertaken prior to reconsideration.
4. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to Chapter 17.82.070 of the Zoning
Code, including guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions,
have been incorporated into the approval of the subject project to ensure
development of the property in accordance with the objectives of Chapter
17.82.

PAGE20F4
1. The project, as approved, will comply with the goals and objectives of the
intended General Plan and the Zoning District in which the proj ect will be
located.
The proposed Residential Design Review for a proposed duplex located at
311 Lindsay Street (APN: 374-044-012) complies with the goals and
objectives of General Plan designation Medium Density (MD). General Plan
designation Medium Density (MD) is intended for a wide range of
residential development types including attached and detached single-family
units at the lower end of the range and multiple family units at the higher
end of the density range. In addition, the Medium Density General Plan
designation permits a maximum density of twelve (12) dwelling units per
acre. The proposed duplex located at 311 Lindsay Street (APN: 374-044-
012) and per the area of the existing lot is permitted a maximum of 2.52
units. The proposed project is in compliance with the Medium Density (MD)
requirements by proposing two (2) dwelling units for the entire existing lot.
The approval of this single-family dwelling unit will assist in achieving the
development of a well balanced and functional mix of residential, limited
commercial, limited industrial, open space, recreational and institutional
land uses by providing additional affordable housing within the City of Lake
Elsinore, as well as encouraging the development and maintenance of a
broad range of housing types for all income groups and age categories. It
should be noted that the proposed dwelling unit located at 311 Lindsay
Street (APN: 374-044-012), which incorporates "Spanish Eclectic" style
architecture; will provide a well rounded design while maintaining the
desirable rural characteristics and base framework to achieve quality and
compatibility in the physical design of the developing portions of the City,
and to enhance the existing developed areas with General Plan designation
Medium Density (MD).
2. The project complies with the design directives contained in Section
17.82.060 and all other applicable provisions of the Municipal Code.
The proposed Residential Design Review at 311 Lindsay Street (APN: 374-
044-012) is appropriate to the site and surrounding developments in that the
duplex project has provided; a twenty foot (20') front yard setback, two (2)
100 square-foot private open spaces; sufficient front and rear yard
landscaping and safe and sufficient on-site vehicular circulation. Further,
the project as proposed will complement the quality of existing development
and will create a visually pleasing, non-detractive relationship between the
proposed and existing projects in that the applicant is providing a "Spanish

PAGE30F4
Eclectic" architecture which include; 360-degree architectural articulation
pursuant to the "Historic Elsinore Design Guidelines", Spanish Eclectic
arched windows with divided lites, decorative coach lights, exposed rafter
tails, stucco finished columns, decorative window surrounds, decorative
garage and front-entry doors, and a concrete "s" tile roof In addition, the
applicant is providing a variety of colors and materials which include
Lahabra stucco painted beige "Meadowbrook"; columns and window
surrounds painted with a Hacienda base and exposed wood rafters, which
will be painted "Lulled Beige".
3. Subject to the attached Conditions of Approval, the proposed project is not
anticipated to result in any significant adverse environmental impacts.
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the proposed
Residential Design Review to be located at 311 Lindsay Street (APN: 374-
044-012), as reviewed and conditioned by all applicable City Divisions and
Departments and Agencies, will not have a significant effect on the
environment pursuant to Article 19; (Categorical Exemptions) and Section
15303 (b), Class 3; (New Construction of Small Structures); therefore, no
further environmental review is required pursuant to CEQA.
4. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to Chapter 17.82.070 of the Zoning
Code, including guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions,
have been incorporated into the approval of the subject project to ensure
development of the property in accordance with the objectives of Chapter
17.82.
Pursuant to Section 17.82.070 (Action of the Planning Commission) of the
Lake Elsinore Municipal Code (LEMC), the proposed Residential Design
Review has been scheduled for consideration and approval of the Planning
Commission. The proposed project has also been conditioned to comply with
the LEMC. For example, Condition of Approval Number Eight (#8) has been
included which states; "All site improvements shall be constructed as
indicated on the approved site plan and elevations, with revision noted
herein. The Applicant shall meet all required setbacks and development
standards pursuant to the Medium Density development standards as

The proposed Residential Design Review for a proposed single-family
residence located at 71 Via De La Valle (APN: 363-365-026) complies with
the goals and objectives of the General Plan designation of Tuscany Hills
Specific Plan. Tuscany Hills Specific Plan is comprised of 973 acres, of
which approximately 709 acres are designated for single-family residential
uses, 47.6 acres of community parks, 9.4 acres of private recreation, an 11
acre elementary school site, and the remaining 196 acres are intended for
open space and lake uses to provide a range of densities and some limited
commercial and industrial uses. The approval of this single-family dwelling
unit will assist in achieving the development of a well-balanced and
functional mix of residential, commercial, industrial, open space,
recreational and institutional land uses by providing additional affordable
housing within the City of Lake Elsinore, as well as encouraging the
development and maintenance of a broad range of housing types for all
income groups and age categories. It should be noted that the proposed
dwelling unit, which incorporates Spanish/Mediterranean Architecture style
architecture; will provide a well rounded design while maintaining the
desirable rural characteristics and base framework to achieve compatibility
with the physical design of the developing portions of the City, while
enhancing the existing developed areas within the Tuscany Hills Specific
Plan.
2. The project complies with the design directives contained in Section
17.82.060 and all other applicable provisions of the Municipal Code.
The proposed Residential Design Review located at 71 Via De La Valle

ELSINORE APPROVAL OF ZONING ORDINANCE TEXT
AMENDMENT NO. 2006-01 AND THE ADOPTION OF THE
NEGATIVE DECLARATION THEREFORE
WHEREAS, an application has been initiated by the City of Lake Elsinore
amending portions of Lake Elsinore Municipal Code (LEMC) Chapter 17.66
(Parking Requirements), related to 1) eliminating compact parking provisions for
commercial and industrial uses and instead requiring all parking spaces to be
standard full-size spaces, 2) modifying the required width of 90-degree parking
drive aisles, and 3) establishing a minimum off-street parking requirement for
medical uses; and
WHEREAS, a Negative Declaration has been prepared for the project
pursuant to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) Section 15070, describing the reasons that the proposed text
amendments will not have a significant effect on the environment and do not
require the preparation of an environmental impact report; and
WHEREAS, Section 17.84.050 of the LEMC stipulates that the Planning
Commission render its recommendation on a Zoning Ordinance text amendment,
including the reasons for the recommendation, to the City Council; and
WHEREAS, public notice of the application 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 August 1, 2006.
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
Zoning Ordinance text amendment. The Planning Commission finds and
determines that an Initial Study was completed to analyze the potential
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-63

-
environmental impacts of the proposed project. The Initial Study concluded that
the proposed project would have no significant environmental impacts.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning law and
the LEMC, the Planning Commission makes the following findings for the
recommendation of approval of Text Amendment No. 2006-01:
1. The proposed text amendment to the City's Parking Ordinance will:
a. Not be detrimental to the health, safety, comfort, or the general
welfare of the persons working or residing within the City in that
revisions are proposed to compact stalls, drive aisle widths, and
parking ratio regulations that will create parking areas with less
congestion and better vehicle circulation that will contribute to the
safety and comfort of drivers traversing these parking areas.
b. Not be injurious to property or improvements within the City because
the proposed amendments to the parking ordinance will create wider
parking spaces and aisle widths that will make parking areas safer
and less likely to create situations where property or existing
improvements could be damaged. Furthermore, the proposed
amendments apply to new developments.
2. The proposed text amendment is consistent with the General Plan as the
proposed changes to the Parking Ordinance will help provide sufficient onsite
parking to accommodate all vehicles associated with the uses found on each
site. Furthermore, the proposed revisions will not inhibit the implementation of
appropriate parking layout and design standards set forth in the Community
Design Element of the General Plan.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.

MSHCP CONSISTENCY FOR RAMS GATE SPA 4, ET.AL.
PAGE TWO OF EIGHT
NOW THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMISSION OF THE CITY
OF LAKE ELSINORE DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND
ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The Planning Commission has considered the proposed
Ramsgate applications and their consistency with the MSHCP prior to making a
decision to recommend that the City Council adopt Findings of consistency with
the MSHCP.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning laws,
the City of Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, and the Western Riverside County
Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan, findings for adoption have been made
as follows:
MSHCP CONSISTENCY FINDINGS
1. The proposed project is a project under the City's MSHCP Resolution, and
the City must make an MSHCP Consistency finding before approval.
The proposed project includes two (2) tentative tract maps (TTMs) and
requires a number of discretionary approvals from the City, including
CEQA review. Pursuant to the City's MSHCP Resolution, the project has
been reviewedfor MSHCP consistency, including consistency with "Other
Plan Requriements. " These include the Protection of Species Associated
with Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pool Guidelines (MSHCP, S
6.1.2), Protection of Narrow Endemic Plant Species Guidelines (MSHCP, S
6.1.3), Additional Survey Needs and Procedures (MSHCP, S 6.3.2),
Urban/Wildlands InterfaceGuidelines (MSHCP, J 6.1.4), Vegetation
Mapping (MSHCP, J 6.3.1) requirements, Fuels Management Guidelines
(MSHCP, S 6.4), and payment of the MSHCP Local Development Mitigation
Fee (MSHCP Ordinance, S 4).
2. The proposed project is subject to the City's LEAP and the County's Joint
Project Review processes.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-65
MSHCP CONSISTENCY FOR RAMSGATE SPA 4 ET.AL.
PAGE THREE OF EIGHT
The project site is within the MSHCP Lake Elsinore Area Plan. The site
proposed for Tentative Tract Map No. 25475 Revision No. 1 lies within
Criteria Cell 4176 and Independent Criteria Cells 4174, 4178 and 4272.
Therefore, a formal and complete LEAP (Lake Elsinore Acquisition Process)
application, LEAP 2005-10 was submitted to the City on December 9, 2005.
This application and documentation was reviewed by the City and it was
determined that no additional conservation is required for compliance with
the MSHCP. The City also determined that TTM 25475 had complied with
the MSHCP "Other Plan Requirements." The City's LEAP determination
was submitted to the Western Riverside County Regional Conservation
Authority (RCA) for its Joint Project Review (JPR), and was given a finding
of consistency by the RCA on May 1, 2006.
TTM 34231 is not located within an MSHCP Criteria Cell area, therefore,
no formal LEAP submittal was required. However, the project is still
required to demonstrate compliance with "Other Plan Requirements. " Both
TTMs are in compliance as described further below.
3. The proposed project is consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas and
Vemal Pools Guidelines.
No vernal pools exist on the site and therefore vernal pool species are not
expected to occur. Section 6.1.2 of the MSHCP focuses on protection of
riparian/riverine areas and vernal pool habitat types based on their value in
the conversation of a number of MSHCP-covered species, none of which has
any potential to occur on the project site. Any impacts to the southern willow
scrub and herbaceous wetland are the result of off-site road improvements.
Relocation of the roads is not feasible without eliminating access to the
project site and impacts cannot be reduced by an alternative location, since
all of the drainages would still need to be crossed. Impacts to the small
riparian area and unvegetated drainages will be mitigated through
acquisition of credits from the Riverside-Corona Resource Conservation
District Mitigation Bank, which provides significant enhancement to
riparian habitat along the Santa Ana River through removal of giant reed
(Arundo donax). A number of the species targeted for conservation through
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006- 65
MSHCP CONSISTENCY FOR RAMSGATE SPA 4 ET.AL.
P AGE FOUR OF EIGHT
consistency with Section 6.1.2 occur within bank boundaries, and the bank is
within the MSHCP Conservation Area boundaries.
4. The proposed project is consistent with the Protection of Narrow Endemic
Plant Species Guidelines.
The project site is not located within the NEPSSA as shown on Figure 6-1 of
the MSHCP; however, an MSHCP Narrow Endemic Species (Munz's onion)
was observed in the north-central portion ofTTM No. 25475. This
population of the Munz's onion occurs outside of the Conservation Area
spelled out in the Cell Criteriafor the tentative tract and the project site is
not one of the fifteen known locations targeted for conservation.
Additionally, since the site lies outside of a NEPSSA or Critical Area Species
Survey Area (CASSA), no conservation is required. Based on its location
outside of any NEPSSA or CASSA, the project is compliant with MSHCP
Section 6.1.3.
5. The proposed project is consistent with the Additional Survey Needs and
Procedures.
The MSHCP requires additional surveys for certain species if the project is
located in Criteria Area Species Survey Areas, Amphibian Species Survey
Areas With Critical Area), Burrowing Owl Survey Areas With Criteria Area,
and Mammal Species Survey Areas With Criteria Areas of the MSHCP.
The project site is located outside of any Critical Area Species Survey Area
(CASSA) for plants and mammals and no CASSA plant species were
observed during the focused surveys for the site. However, the TTM No.
25475 site is located within the area requiring burrowing owl surveys. A
burrowing owl habitat and burrow survey was conducted on the TTM No.
25475 site in August 2004 by PCR Services Corporation. The habitat
assessment found that the study area exhibited multiple key indicators of
suitable burrowing owl habitat including occurrence of low-growing
vegetation and the presence of small fossorial mammal burrows. However,
no burrowing owl sign was observed during the habitat assessment and
burrow survey, and the burrowing owl is not expected to occur at this site.
Additionally, the site was surveyed on multiple occasions during other
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006- 65
MSHCP CONSISTENCY FOR RAMS GATE SPA 4 ET.AL.
PAGE FIVE OF EIGHT
focused surveys by biologists familiar with the burrowing owl. No owls
were observed during any of these surveys; therefore, TTM No. 25475 is
consistent with the policies of MSHCP Section 6.3.2. However, as required
by the MSHCP, an additional pre-construction survey for burrowing owl
will be included as a condition of project approval.
In addition, TTM No. 34231 is located within the survey area identifiedfor
the burrowing owl. The site has already been rough graded and adjacent
road improvements constructed. No suitable burrowing owl habitat
currently exists on the project site. However, due to the migratory nature of
the burrowing owl, there is a possibility that although burrowing owls are
not currently located on the project site, they could occupy the site prior to
actual project construction. Therefore a pre-construction burrowing owl
survey will be required per the MSHCP.
Based upon the above, it can be concluded that the proposed TTM No.
25475 and TTM No. 34231 are consistent with the provisions of the
MSHCP.
6. The proposed project IS consistent with the Urban/Wildlands Interface
Guidelines.
The TTM No. 25475 site is located adjacent to land that has been set aside
for conservation. Therefore the project is required to comply with the
policies set forth in Section 6.1.4. Future Development in proximity to the
MSHCP Conservation Area may result in Edge Effects that will adversely
affect biological resources within the MSHCP Conservation Area. To
minimize such Edge Effects, the following guidelines shall be implemented in
conjunction with review of individual public and private Development
projects in proximity to the MSHCP Conservation Area." Through
implementation of mitigation measures the project will minimize the adverse
effects of the project on conservation configuration and would minimize
management challenges that can arise from development being located
adjacent to conserved habitat; and will be consistent with the policies set
forth in MSHCP Section 6.1.4.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006- 65
MSHCP CONSISTENCY FOR RAMSGA TE SPA 4 ET.AL.
PAGE SIX OF EIGHT
The TTM No. 34231 project site is separatedfrom nearby criteria cells by
existing residential subdivisions located within the Ramsgate Specific Plan.
Therefore, the urban/wildlands interface guidelines set forth in Section 6.1.4
of the MSHCP are not applicable.
7. The proposed project is consistent with the Vegetation Mapping
requirements.
The vegetation of the project site has been mapped as part of the City's
LEAP applicationfor TTM 25475. This mapping is consistent with MSHCP
mapping protocol. The mapping is sufficient under the MSHCP and is
consistent with the MSHCP requirements. No vegetation mapping
requirements apply to TTM 34231.
8. The proposed project is consistent with the Fuels Management Guidelines.
The TTM No. 25475 site has been designed to include Fuel Modification
Zones along its north and west boundaries in open space adjacent to the
Conservation Areas. The proposed project has been designed so that no
additional take of conserved habitat will be necessary for fuel modification
purposes. Within the project open space area plantings are limited to fire-
resistant, non-invasive native species from the list contained within the
MSHCP Ordinance and reviewed by the City's Fire Department. All fuel
management areas will exist outside of the MSHCP Conservation Area.
TTM No. 25475 is therefore consistent with the Fuels Management
Guidelines.
The TTM No. 34231 site is separated from nearby criteria cells by existing
residential subdivisions located within the Ramsgate Specific Plan.
Therefore, the fuels management guidelines set forth in the MSHCP are not
applicable.
9. The proposed project will be conditioned to pay the City's MSHCP Local
Development Mitigation Fee.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006- 65
MSHCP CONSISTENCY FOR RAMSGATE SPA 4, ET.AL.
PAGE SEVEN OF EIGHT
Conditions of Approval require that prior to the issuance of a building
permits the applicant pay the City's Multiple Species Habitat Conservation
Plan Local Development Mitigation Fee in effect at that time. The current
fee for residential development with a density of less than 8.0 dwelling units
per acre is $1,651 per dwelling unit. Residential development with a density
between 8.1 and 14.0 dwelling units per acre shall pay $1,057 per dwelling
unit at the present time.
IO.The proposed project overall is consistent with the MSHCP.
The City received a letter dated May 1, 2006, from Sarah Lozano, Western
Riverside Regional Conservation Authority stating that TTM 25475 is
consistent with the MSHCP from both a criteria and other plan perspective.
Because there was noformal LEAP requirementfor TTM No. 34231, the
City ensured the consistency of this project site with the MSHCP.
The City received a letter dated February 27, 2006, from Thomas B. Mullen,
Executive Director, Western Riverside Regional Conservation Authority
stating that projects within the Ramsgate Specific Plan are covered by the
mitigation program contained in that plan and accepted in anticipation of
the MSHCP being adopted and the agency permits signed. Mr. Mullen
concludes that the preservation of the mitigated lands for the Ramsgate SP
helped to insure that the permits were signed.
The entire project is consistent with the MSHCP and provides effective
conservation on the project site to meet the biological issues and
considerations of the MSHCP.
11. There is no substantial evidence, in the light of the whole record before the
agency, that the proj ect as revised may have significant effect on the
environment.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date
of its passage and adoption.

recommend that the City Council adopt Findings of Consistency with the MSHCP.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning laws, the
Lake Elsinore Municipal Code (LEMC) and the MSHCP, the Planning
Commission makes the following findings for MSHCP consistency:
MSHCP CONSISTENCY FINDINGS
1. The proposed project is a project under the City's MSHCP Resolution, and
the City must make an MSHCP Consistency finding before approval.
The proposed project requires a number of discretionary approvals from the
City, including CEQA review. Pursuant to the City's MSHCP Resolution,
the project has been reviewed for MSHCP consistency, including
consistency with "Other Plan Requirements. " These include the Protection
of Species Associated with Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pool
Guidelines (MSHCP, f 6.1.2), Protection of Narrow Endemic Plant Species
Guidelines (MSHCP, f 6.1.3), Additional Survey Needs and Procedures
(MSHCP, f 6.3.2), Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines (MSHCP, f
6.1.4), Vegetation Mapping (MSHCP, f 6.3.1) Requirements, Fuels
Management Guidelines (MSHCP, f 6.4), and payment of the MSHCP Local
Development Mitigation Fee (MSHCP Ordinance, f 4).
2. The proposed project is subject to the City's LEAP and the County's Joint
Project Review processes.
The project site is within the MSHCP Lake Elsinore Area Plan. However,
the site does not lie within a Criteria Cell and is therefore not subject to the
Joint Project Review Process. However, the project is still required to
demonstrate compliance with the other MSHCP "Plan Wide Requirements. "
The Project is in compliance with these requirements as described below.
3. The proposed project is consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas and
Vemal Pools Guidelines.
No riparian, riverine, vernal pool/fairy shrimp habitat or other aquatic
resources were identified on the proposed project site. Some sparse
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-73
PAGE30F5
elements of riparian scrub occur in several stands within Parcell, including
species of mulefat, red willow, and tamarisk. However, this vegetation is not
associated with any natural drainage feature, and is most likely supported
by broken irrigation lines or other subsurface sources of water. As a result,
no further MSHCP analysis or conservation measures are required. The
proposed project is therefore consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas
and Vernal Pool Guidelines as setforth in Section 6.1.2 of the MSHCP.
4. The proposed project is consistent with the Protection of Narrow Endemic
Plant Species Guidelines.
The project site does not fall within any Narrow Endemic Plant Species
Survey Areas. Neither a habitat assessment nor further focused surveys are
required for the proposed project. Therefore, Protection of Narrow
Endemic Plant Species Guidelines as set forth in Section 6.1.3 of the
MSHCP are not applicable to the proposed project.
5. The proposed project is consistent with the Additional Survey Needs and
Procedures.
The MSHCP only requires additional surveys for certain species if the
project is located in Criteria Area Species Survey Areas, Amphibian Species
Survey Areas, Burrowing Owl Survey Areas, and Mammal Species Survey
Areas of the MSHCP. The project site is located outside of any Critical
Area Species Survey Areas. Therefore, it can be concluded that the
provisions as set forth in Section 6.3.2 of the MSHCP are not applicable to
the proposed project.
6. The proposed project IS consistent with the Urban/Wildlands Interface
Guidelines.
The project site is not within or adjacent to any MSHCP criteria or
conservation areas. Therefore, the Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines as
set forth in Section 6.1.4 in the MSHCP are not applicable to the proposed
project. No additional mitigation measures or conditions of approval are
required.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-73
PAGE40F5
7. The proposed project IS consistent with the Vegetation Mapping
requirements.
The project site currently consists primarily of vacant land with one
unoccupied residence. There were no resources located on the project site
requiring mapping as set forth in Section 6.3.1 of the MSHCP.
8. The proposed project is consistent with the Fuels Management Guidelines.
The project site is not within or adjacent to any MSHCP criteria or
conservation areas. Therefore, the Fuels Management Guidelines as set
forth in Section 6.4 of the MSHCP are not applicable to the proposed
project. No additional mitigation measures or conditions of approval are
required.
9. The proposed project will be conditioned to pay the City's MSHCP Local
Development Mitigation Fee.
As a condition of approval, the project will be required to pay the City's
MSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fee at the time of issuance of
building permits.
IO.The proposed project is consistent with the MSHCP.
The proposed project complies and is consistent with all of the required
procedures, policies, and guidelines of the City's MSHCP Resolution and
the MSHCP. The applicant has made revisions to the project or has agreed
to specific conditions, which would avoid the effects or mitigate the effects of
the project to a point where no significant effects would occur.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date
of its passage and adoption.

person moves along the streets within the project. The project also
complements the quality of existing neighboring development and will continue
to provide visually-pleasing design and architecture within the immediate area.

PARCEL NO. 358-130-020
WHEREAS, the C & J Family Trust has filed an application with the
City of Lake Elsinore to annex 21.13 acres into the City boundaries,
redesignate certain acreage to City General Plan land use designations, and
pre-zone certain acreage to City zoning (the "Project"); and
WHEREAS, Annexation No. 78 and its related cases are defined as a
"project" under California Public Resources Code Section 21065, which
defines a project for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act
(Cal. Pub. Res. Code Subsection 21000 et seq.: "CEQA") as an activity
which may cause either a direct physical change in the environment, or a
reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and
which includes the issuance to a person of a lease, permit, license,
certificate, or other entitlement for use by one or more public agencies; and
WHEREAS, the Initial Study revealed that the Project may have
potentially significant environmental impacts. Nevertheless, it was
determined that an environmental impact report was not necessary and that
all of the potentially environmental impacts could be mitigated to a level of
insignificance. Therefore, it was determined that it would be appropriate
under CEQA to prepare Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2006-03 to
address the potentially significant environmental impacts and applicable
mitigation measures; and

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore
has been delegated with the responsibility of making recommendations to
the City Council regarding environmental documents; and
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 September 5, 2006.
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
Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2006-03 and related Mitigation
Monitoring Program prior to recommending to the City Council that the
documents be approved. The Planning Commission finds and determines
that Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2006-03 and related Mitigation
Monitoring Program are adequate and prepared in accordance with the
requirements of CEQA.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with CEQA, State Planning and
Zoning Law, and the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, the Planning
Commission makes the following findings for the approval of Mitigated
Negative Declaration No. 2006-03 and the related Mitigation Monitoring
Program:
1. Through development of the Project, the immediate natural
environment will change from a natural setting to a suburban one.
This change is not necessarily considered a substantial or
significant degradation to the environment. The Proj ect will not
substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, nor
will it cause a population to drop below self-sustaining levels.
Further, the Project will not eliminate a plant or animal
community, nor reduce the number or range of a rare or
endangered plant or animal. Additionally, the site contains no
known historical resources.
PLANNING COMMISSIOBN RESOLUTION NO. 2006- 82

2. The Project has individual impacts that can be mitigated to below
the level of significance through implementation of the Mitigation
Monitoring Program and the conditions of approval. The Project's
contribution to cumulative noise impacts are insignificant when
considered in light of the contribution to traffic noise resulting
from projects within the vicinity. No considerable cumulative
impacts will occur as a result of the Project.
3. The Project does not pose any potential adverse effects on human
beings.

ROAD, NORTH OF CORSON AVENUE, AND
CONTIGUOUS TO THE EASTERLY BOUNDARY OF
THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, AND KNOWN AS
ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NO. 358-130-020
WHEREAS, the C & J Family Trust has filed an application with the
City of Lake Elsinore to amend the City's General Plan Land Use
designation and the City's Official Zoning Map to "East Canyon Hills SP"
to allow for the annexation of the subject property into the City of Lake
Elsinore (the "Project"); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 6.0 of the MSHCP, those
discretionary project approvals which involve land not covered by an
MSHCP criteria cell are not required to undergo the Lake Elsinore
Acquisition Process ("LEAP") and the Joint Project Review ("JPR")
processes. However, those projects must be evaluated pursuant to the Plan
Wide Requirements as a condition precedent to project approval.
Accordingly, the Project was evaluated under said Requirements; and
WHEREAS, the Project involves entitlements requiring discretionary
review by the Planning Commission and City Council; and
WHEREAS, Section 6.0 of the MSHCP requires that the City adopt
MSCHP consistency findings, regardless of the geographical location of the
project, prior to approving any discretionary entitlement; and
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-83
PAGE20F5
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has been delegated with the
responsibility of recommending MSHCP consistency findings to the City
Council; and
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 September 5, 2006.
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
Christensen applications and their consistency with the MSHCP prior to
making a decision to recommend that the City Council adopt findings of
consistency with the MSHCP.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with MSHCP and the City of Lake
Elsinore Municipal Code, the Planning Commission makes the following
findings regarding the consistency of the Project with the MSHCP:
1. The proposed project is a project under the City's MSHCP
Resolution, and the City must make an MSHCP Consistency finding
before approving the Project.
The proposed project includes no development plan, but does require
discretionary approvals from the City, including CEQA review.
Pursuant to the provisions of the MSHCP, all discretionary
development projects within an MSHCP Criteria Area are to be
reviewed for compliance through the "Property Owner Initiated
Habitat Evaluation and Acquisition Negotiation Strategy (HANS) or
equivalent process (e.g. LEAP). The project site is within the MSHCP
Lake Elsinore Area Plan; however, it is not within a Criteria Area,
and a formal LEAP review of the project is not required.
In accordance with the MSHCP, proposed projects outside of the
Criteria Area are to be reviewed for consistency with the "Protection
of Species Associated with Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pool
AGENDA ITEM NO.
PAGE OF
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-83
PAGE30F5
Guidelines" (MSHCP, ~ 6.1.2), "Protection of Narrow Endemic
Plant Species Guidelines" (MSHCP, ~ 6.1.3), "Additional Survey
Needs and Procedures JJ (MSHCP, ~ 6.3.2), and "Urban/Wildlands
Interface Guidelines (MSHCP, Section 6.1.4).
2. The proposed project is not subject to the City's LEAP and the
County's Joint Project Review processes.
The project is not located within an MSHCP Criteria Cell area;
therefore, no formal LEAP submittal was required.
3. The proposed project is consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas
and Vemal Pools Guidelines.
The project site does not support riparian habitat or other sensitive
natural community. The General Habitat Assessment prepared for the
project site found a defined swale that supports remnant mulefat
shrubs and willow trees. However, the report also found that this area
does not support habitat suitable for sensitive species as defined in
Section 6.1.2 (Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pools) of the
MSHCP due to extensive disturbances from agriculture, lack of
structural diversity, and prevalence of non-native vegetation.
Although this swale does not contain habitat suitable for the support
of sensitive natural communities, it may require permitting from
regulatory agencies such as the United States Army Corps of
Engineers, California Department of Fish and Game, or the Regional
Water Quality Control Board. Should the swale be affected by any
future development pursuant to the proposed zoning and general plan
designation, the jurisdictional regulations applicable to the swale will
be determined. The mitigation measures required for attainment of a
permit from any of the regulatory agencies will reduce project
impacts to below a level of significance. These mitigation measures
are incorporated into the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting
Program for this project.
4. The proposed project is consistent with the Protection of Narrow
Endemic Plant Species Guidelines.
AGENDA ITEM NO.
PAGE OF
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-83
PAGE 4 OF 5
The project site is not located within the NEPSSA as shown on Figure
6-1 of the MSHCP, and therefore, no focused surveys are required.
5. The proposed project is consistent with the Additional Survey Needs
and Procedures.
The MSHCP requires additional surveys for certain species if the
project is located in Criteria Area Species Survey Areas, Amphibian
Species Survey Areas With Critical Area), Burrowing Owl Survey
Areas With Criteria Area, and Mammal Species Survey Areas With
Criteria Areas of the MSHCP. The project site is located only within
the area requiring Burrowing Owl Surveys (BO). A burrowing owl
habitat and burrow survey was conducted on the project site and
corresponding 150-meter buffer zone on October 7, 2005 by
Ecological Sciences, Inc. The survey determined that there was no
suitable habitat and extensive human activities (such as frequent
discing) which would likely preclude the presence of BO on the site.
No burrowing owl signs were observed during the habitat assessment
and burrow survey. Burrowing Owl is not expected to occur within
the proposed project area.
6. The proposed project overall is consistent with the MSHCP.
The project site is not located within the MSHCP Criteria Area and
therefore, has not been identified by the MSHCP as a potential
conservation site. Based upon the above analysis of consistency with
the MSHCP and the results of the focused biological surveys which
evaluated the project site for potential biological impacts, it is
concluded that the proposed project is consistent with the provisions
of the adopted MSHCP.
7. There is no substantial evidence, in the light of the whole record
before the agency, that the project with the proposed mitigation may
have significant effect on the environment.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the
date of its passage and adoption.

NOW THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMISSION OF THE CITY
OF LAKE ELSINORE DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND
ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The Planning Commission has considered the proposed
Ramsgate applications and their consistency with the MSHCP prior to making a
decision to recommend that the City Council adopt findings of consistency with
the MSHCP.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with the MSHCP and the City of
Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, the Planning Commission makes the following
findings:
MSHCP CONSISTENCY FINDINGS
1. The proposed project is a project under the City's MSHCP Resolution, and
the City must make an MSHCP Consistency finding before approval.
The proposed project includes a tentative tract map and requires a number
of discretionary approvals from the City, including CEQA review. Pursuant
to the City's MSHCP Resolution, the project has been reviewed for MSHCP
consistency, including consistency with "Other Plan Requirements. " These
include the Protection of Species Associated with Riparian/Riverine Areas
and Vernal Pool Guidelines (MSHCP, ~ 6.1.2), Protection of Narrow
Endemic Plant Species Guidelines (MSHCP, ~ 6.1.3), Additional Survey
Needs and Procedures (MSHCP, ~ 6.3.2), Urban/Wildlands Interface
Guidelines (MSHCP, 96.1.4), Vegetation Mapping (MSHCP, 96.3.1)
AGENDA ITEM NO.

PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-88
PAGE30F5
requirements, Fuels Management Guidelines (MSHCP, S 6.4), and payment
of the MSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fee (MSHCP Ordinance, S
4).
2. The proposed project is subject to the City's LEAP and the County's Joint
Project Review processes.
The project site is within the MSHCP Lake Elsinore Area Plan. The entire
Tentative Tract Map No. 33725 is located in Independent Cell Group
(Criteria Cells I 4174 and 4176). Therefore, a formal and complete LEAP
application, LEAP 2006-0, 4 was submitted to the City in June, 2006.
3. The proposed project is consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas and
Vemal Pools Guidelines.
No vernal pools exist on the site; therefore, vernal pool species are not
expected to occur. Section 6.1.2 of the MSHCP focuses on protection of
riparian/riverine areas and vernal pool habitat types based on their value in
the conservation of a number of MSHCP-covered species, none of which has
any potential to occur on the project site. Impacts to riparian habitats on the
map site include the 0.22 acres of herbaceous wetland. Remaining impacts
to riparian/riverine resources are limited to non-wetland waters of the us.
Impacts to the small riparian area and unvegetated drainages will be
mitigated through acquisition of credits from the Riverside-Corona
Resource Conservation District Mitigation Bank, which provides significant
enhancement to riparian habitat along the Santa Ana River through removal
of giant reed (Arundo donax). A number of the species targeted for
conservation through consistency with Section 6.1.2 occur within bank
boundaries, and the bank is within the MSHCP Conservation Area
boundaries.
4. The proposed project is consistent with the Protection of Narrow Endemic
Plant Species Guidelines.
The project site is not located within the NEPSSA as shown on Figure 6-1 of
the MSHCP and therefore no focused survey is required. Additionally, no
AGENDA ITEM NO.
PAGE OF
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-88
PAGE40F5
NEPSSA species were observed duringfocused biological surveys conducted
on the project site. Based on its location outside of any NEPSSA and the lack
of any NEPSSA species being observed duringfocused surveys, the project
is compliant with MSHCP Section 6.1.3.
5. The proposed project is consistent with the Additional Survey Needs and
Procedures.
The MSHCP requires additional surveys for certain species if the project is
located in Criteria Area Species Survey Areas, Amphibian Species Survey
Areas With Critical Area, Burrowing Owl Survey Areas With Criteria Area,
and Mammal Species Survey Areas With Criteria Areas of the MSHCP.
The project site is located outside of any Critical Area Species Survey Area
(CASSA) for plants and mammals and no CASSA plant species were
observed during the focused surveys for the site. However, the project site is
located within the area requiring burrowing owl surveys. A focused
burrowing owl survey was conducted on the site during the 2006 breeding
season (March 1 - August 31), in accordance with accepted guidelines. The
focused survey determined that although the site contains 35 acres of low to
moderate potential owl habitat, no burrowing owls were observed on the
property and the few burrows with potential to support owls showed no sign
of owl occupation.
6. The proposed project IS consistent with the Urban/Wildlands Interface
Guidelines.
Section 6.1.4 of the MSHCP sets forth guidelines which are intended to
address indirect effects associated with locating development in proximity to
the MSHCP Conservation Area, where applicable. Future Development in
proximity to the MSHCP Conservation Area may result in Edge Effects that
will adversely affect biological resources within the MSHCP Conservation
Area. To minimize such Edge Effects, guidelines shall be implemented in
conjunction with review of individual public and private Development
projects in proximity to the MSHCP Conservation Area. Through
implementation of mitigation measures the project will minimize the

identified potential indirect impacts with potential future open space to the
south.
7. The proposed project overall is consistent with the MSHCP.
The entire project is consistent with the MSHCP and provides effective
conservation on the project site to meet the biological issues and
considerations of the MSHCP.
8. There is no substantial evidence, in the light of the whole record before the
agency, that the project as revised may have significant effect on the
environment.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date
of its passage and adoption.

DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-89
PAGE20F4
SECTION 1. The Planning Commission has considered the proposed
amendment prior to making a decision to recommend that the City Council
approve General Plan Amendment No. 2006-01.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning law
and the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, the Planning Commission makes the
following findings for the approval of General Plan Amendment No. 2006-
01:
1. The proposed General Plan Amendment will not be: a) detrimental to the
health, safety, comfort or general welfare of the persons residing or
working within the neighborhood of the proposed amendment or within
the City, or b) injurious to the property or improvements in the
neighborhood or within the City.
a. The proposed General Plan Amendment has been analyzed relative to
its potential to have detrimental effects, and Staff believes that the
health, safety and welfare of surrounding residents may be improved
as a result of future improvements to infrastructure such as water,
sewer, paving and drainage facilities brought to the site as a
requirement for any future development.
b. The proposed "Ramsgate" designation will ensure that development
standards and design guidelines of the specific plan will be
consistently applied to all of the Properties.
2. The proposed General Plan Amendment will permit reasonable
development of the area consistent with its constraints and will make the
area more compatible with adjacent properties.
a. The proposed land use designation of "Ramsgate" will allow for the
continuation of large lot single family detached residential
neighborhoods thus creating continuity between the Properties and
the neighboring Canyon Hills Specific Plan which lies to the west. The
proposed designation will also provide flexibility in designing the site
to be compatible with existing uses along its other three boundaries.
AGENDA ITEM NO.
PAGE OF

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING
COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LAKE
ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING TO
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE
ELSINORE APPROVAL OF RAMS GATE
SPECIFIC PLAN NO. 89-1 FIFTH REVISION,
LOCATED APPROXIMATELY ONE MILE EAST
OF INTERESTATE 15, SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 74,
AND WEST OF GREENWALD AVENUE.
WHEREAS, the Shopoff Group filed an application with the City of
Lake Elsinore to amend the Ramsgate Specific Plan No. 89-1; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore
has been delegated with the responsibility of making recommendations to
the City Council pertaining to changes to approved specific plans; and
WHEREAS, public notice of the application 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 September 5, 2006.
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
Ramsgate Specific Plan No. 89-1 Fifth Revision (the "Fifth Revision") prior
to making a decision to recommend that the City Council approve the
proposed amendment.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning law
and Chapter 17.99 (Specific Plan District) of the Lake Elsinore Municipal
Code, the Planning Commission makes the following findings for approval
of the Ramsgate Specific Plan No. 89-1 Fifth Revision:
1. The location and design of the proposed development is consistent with
the goals and policies of the City's General Plan and with any other
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-92
PAGE20F4
applicable plan or policies adopted by the City, or in the process of being
prepared and adopted.
a. The General Plan supports the development of the Ramsgate Specific
Plan. The Fifth Revision adds acreage to the General Plan that is
contiguous to its eastern boundary, and supplements Planning Area 6,
which lost three-fourths of its original acreage to open space
preservation. The Fifth Revision has been reviewed and conditioned
to enhance and update the Ramsgate Specific Plan Fourth Revision.
b. The Fifth Revision has been designed to support the objectives of the
Multi-Species Habitat Conservation Plan adopted by the City, by
preserving habitat areas identified in the Conservation Plan.
c. The Fifth Revision has been presented to the General Plan Advisory
Committee charged with the preparation of the Draft General Plan
Update, and received a favorable response.
2. The proposed location allows the development to be well-integrated with
or adequately buffered from its surroundings, whichever may be the case.
a. The Fifth Revision provides for the development of low-medium
density residential, as an extension of the single family detached
residential neighborhoods within Planning Area 6. In so doing, both
Planning Areas 6 and 10 have primary and secondary access from
Greenwald Avenue.
b. The Fifth Revision increases the single family neighborhood on the
eastern portion of the Plan, in both size and amenities, providing an
aggregate three acres of parks, and compensating for the loss of
acreage in this portion of the Plan to the preservation of open space.
3. All vehicular traffic generated by the development, either in phased
increments or at full build-out, is to be accommodated safely and without
causing undue congestion upon adjoining streets.
a. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was prepared by Urban Crossroads
in October 2005, which determined that the proposed project will
generate 2,211 trip-ends daily with 173 in the a. m. peak period and
AGENDA ITEM NO.
PAGE OF
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-92
PAGE30F4
233 in the p.m. peak period. The TIA identified that traffic from the
project will use Scenic Crest Drive and Greenwald Avenue. As a
secondary highway, Greenwald has the capacity for 35,000 vehicle
trips. The project will not cause this capacity to be exceeded.
b. The City of Lake Elsinore General Plan states that the objective of the
City is to "strive to maintain a minimum Level of Service 'c' at all
intersections during non-peak hours and Level of Service (LOS) 'D' at
all intersections during peak hours to ensure that traffic delays are
kept to a minimum. " With the incorporation of mitigation measures in
the Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, the project will
meet LOS 'D' objective, except for the intersection of River Road at
State Route 74 in the County.
4. The Final Specific Plan shall identify a methodology to allow land uses
to be adequately serviced by existing or proposed public facilities and
servIces.
a. The Fifth Revision has been reviewed and conditioned to provide
adequate public services for the site.
b. The Fifth Revision provides recreational amenities, pedestrian
pathways, and open space for residents in the low-medium density
residential development.
5. The overall design of the Specific Plan shall produce an attractive,
efficient and stable development.
The proposed Revision will allow the construction of a more substantial
and complete single family neighborhood in the eastern portion of the
Plan, with parks and amenities and primary and secondary access to
Greenwald Avenue.
6. In accordance with the requirements of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA), impacts have been reduced to a level of non-
significance through adoption of mitigation measures and conditions of
approval.

RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY COUNCIL
ADOPTION OF FINDINGS OF CONSISTENCY WITH
THE MULTI-SPECIES HABITAT CONSERVATION
PLAN (MSHCP) FOR THE PROJECT KNOWN AS LAKE
ELSINORE MEDICAL
WHEREAS, HC&D Architects, C/O Chris Lindholm, has submitted
application for Lake Elsinore Medical located on the south side of Canyon Estates
Drive and west of Summerhill Drive; and
WHEREAS, the application comprises the "project" as defined by
California Public Resources Code Section 21065, which is defined as an activity
which may cause either a direct physical change in the environment, or a
reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and which
includes the issuance to a person of a lease, permit, license, certificate, or other
entitlement for use by one or more public agencies; and
WHEREAS, the project has been found exempt from further environmental

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 September 19,2006.
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
application and its consistency with the MSHCP prior to making a decision to
recommend that the City Council adopt Findings of Consistency with the MSHCP.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning laws, the
Lake Elsinore Municipal Code (LEMC) and the MSHCP, the Planning
Commission makes the following findings for MSHCP consistency:
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006- 95
PAGE20F4
MSHCP CONSISTENCY FINDINGS
1. The proposed project is a project under the City's MSHCP Resolution, and
the City must make an MSHCP Consistency finding before approval.
Pursuant to the City's MSHCP Resolution, the project is required to be
reviewed for MSHCP consistency, including consistency with other "Plan
Wide Requirements." The proposed project site lies within Criteria Cells
#4646 and #4647. However, based upon a verbal "common law vested
rights agreement" between the City and the previous landowner, the site
was exempted from the MSHCP. This agreement was the result of the
previous landowner's extensive costs associated with infrastructure and
road construction in that area prior to the City's involvement in the
MSHCP. Accordingly, the current proposed project would also be subject to
this same agreement. City Planning Staff conducted a site reconnaissance
survey to ensure that no issues could be raised regarding consistency with
the MSCHP's other "Plan Wide Requirements". The only requirements
potentially applicable to the proposed project were the Protection of Species
Associated with Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pool Guidelines
(MSHCP, S 6.1.2) and payment of the MSHCP Local Development
Mitigation Fee (MSHCP Ordinance, S 4). The proposed project site has
already been graded as approved under the previous agreement and no
habitat is present on site, including riparian/riverine areas or vernal pools.
2. The proposed project is subject to the City's LEAP and the County's Joint
Project Review processes.
As stated above, the City exempted this site from the MSHCP and therefore
it was not processed through a Joint Project Review.
3. The proposed project is consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas and
Vemal Pools Guidelines.
The proposed project was exempted from the MSHCP. Further, a site
reconnaissance survey was conducted, and no riparian, riverine, vernal
pool/fairy shrimp habitat or other aquatic resources were identified on the
proposed project site. As such, the Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal
Pool Guidelines as set forth in Section 6.1.2 of the MSHCP are not
applicable to the proposed project.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006- 95
PAGE30F4
4. The proposed project is consistent with the Protection of Narrow Endemic
Plant Species Guidelines.
The proposed project was exempted from the MSHCP. Further, the site
does not fall within any Narrow Endemic Plant Species Survey Areas.
Neither a habitat assessment nor further focused surveys are requiredfor
the proposed project. Therefore, Protection of Narrow Endemic Plant
Species Guidelines as set forth in Section 6.1.3 of the MSHCP are not
applicable to the proposed project.
5. The proposed project is consistent with the Additional Survey Needs and
Procedures.
The proposed project was exempted from the MSHCP. Further, the MSHCP

General Plan, Specific Plan and the Zoning District in which the project is
located.
The proposed Commercial Design Review located within Assessor Parcel
Number(s) 363-550-014 complies with the goals and objectives of the
General Plan and, Canyon Creek "Summerhill" Specific Plan in that the
approval of these medical and professional offices will assist in the creation
of additional job opportunities and increased medical facility options within
the community. Moreover, the project will assist in achieving the
development of a well-balanced and functional mix of residential,
commercial, industrial, open space, recreational and institutional land uses
as well as encouraging commercial land uses to diversify Lake Elsinore's
economic base.
2. The project complies with the design directives contained in the Canyon
Creek "Summerhill" Specific Plan, Section 17.82.060 and all other
applicable provisions of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code.
The proposed Commercial Design Review located at Assessor Parcel
Number(s) 363-550-014 is appropriate to the site and surrounding
developments in that the medical office building and professional office
building have been designed in consideration of the size and shape of the
property. Sufficient setbacks and onsite landscaping have been provided
thereby creating interest and varying vistas as a person moves along the
street. In addition, safe and efficient circulation has been achieved onsite.
Further, the project, as proposed, will complement the quality of existing
development and will create a visually pleasing, non-detractive relationship
between the proposed development and existing projects in that the
applicant is providing a "Spanish" architectural design with various
elements which serve to enhance the building. Moreover, a variety of
materials and colors are proposed including decorative wrought iron
accents, decorative light fixtures and earth tone colors that serve to blend
with surrounding developments and provide evidence of a concern for
quality and originality.

anticipated to result in any significant adverse environmental impacts.
Commercial Design Review 2006-04, located at Assessor Parcel Number

additional environmental review is necessary for the proposed project
pursuant to Section 15162.
4. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to Chapter 17.82.070 of the Zoning
Code, including guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions,
have been incorporated into the approval of the subject project to ensure

RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF LAKE ELSINORE APPROVAL OF GENERAL PLAN
AMENDMENT NO. 2006-03 AMENDING THE GENERAL
PLAN LAND USE DESIGNATIONS ON ONE HUNDRED
FIFTY-FOUR (154) ACRES ADJACENT TO STATE ROUTE
74, EAST OF TRELLIS LANE
WHEREAS, the City of Lake Elsinore has initiated proceedings to amend
the General Plan Land Use Map as part of an annexation process, thereby
requesting a General Plan Amendment on one hundred fifty-four (154) acres; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore has
been delegated with the responsibility of making recommendations to the City
Council for changes to the General Plan Land Use Map; and
WHEREAS, public notice of said application 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 August 1,2006 and September 19,2006.
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
General Plan Amendment No. 2006-03, prior to making a decision to recommend
that the City Council approve the proposed changes to the General Plan Land Use
Map. The Planning Commission finds and determines that Mitigated Negative
Declaration No. 2006-02 is adequate and prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning law and
the City of Lake Elsinore the following findings for the approval of General Plan
Amendment No. 2006-03 have been made:
PLANNING COMMISION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-98
Page 2 of3
1. The proposed General Plan Amendment will not be; a) detrimental to the
health, safety, comfort or general welfare of the persons residing or working
within the neighborhood of the proposed amendment or within the City, or
b) injurious to the property or improvements in the neighborhood or within
the City.
The proposed General Plan Amendment has been analyzed relative to its
potential to be detrimental to the health, safety, comfort and welfare of the
persons residing or working within the neighborhood of the proposed
amendment. Staff believes that the health, safety and welfare of the persons
residing or working within the neighborhood of the property may be
improved due to the future development that could include improvements to
infrastructure such as water and sewer lines, lighting and paving of existing
dirt right of ways.
2. The proposed General Plan Amendment will permit reasonable development
of the area consistent with its constraints and will make the area more
compatible with adjacent properties.
Staff, concluded that the current rapid development of a major single family
residential development adjacent to the Annexation area (Ramsgate) is a
strong indication that the area is rapidly changing from rural type uses to
an area with more suburban type uses. The General Plan Amendment
proposes land use changes from the County's designation of Very Low
Density Residential to Low Medium Density will allow the continuation of
the single family home development.
3. The proposed General Plan Amendment would establish a land use density
and usage more in character with the subject property's location, access, and
constraints.
The Annexation will establish land uses more consistent with the land uses
adjacent and nearby the area. The neighboring major single family
residential development is bringing infrastructure improvement to the
western boundary of the Annexation. Improvements include all required
utilities as well as major road improvements. Major commercial
development (Costco/Lowe's, Home Depot and Target Centers) are
-

currently open and operating or are near completion and are located less
that jive miles from the Annexation area.
4. The proposed General Plan Amendment will not have a significant effect on
the environment.
The proposed General Plan Amendment was included within the description
of the project's Initial Study. Based on the Initial Study, staff intends to
adopt a Mitigated Negative Declaration, which concluded with mitigations
that the project, upon annexation, will not have a significant effect on the
environment.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.

RESOLUTION NO. 2006-103
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING
RECLAMATION PLAN NO. 2006-01
WHEREAS, Pacific Aggregates, Inc. has filed an application with the City
of Lake Elsinore requesting approval of Reclamation Plan No. 2006-01 for a
211.40 acre site located on the east side of the 1-15 freeway at the Nichols Road
intersection and commonly identifiable as APNs 389-200-015, -023, and -024 (the
"Project"); and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Chapter 14.04 of the Lake Elsinore Municipal
Code, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore has been delegated
with the responsibility of considering and approving, conditionally approving, or
denying Reclamation Plans; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Cal.
Pub. Res. Code SS 21000 et seq.: "CEQA") and the CEQA Guidelines (14 C.C.R.
SS 15000 et seq.), Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2006-06 and the
corresponding Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program were prepared to
mitigate any potentially significant environmental effects of the Project to a
statistical level of insignificance; and
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 October 3,2006.
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 and reviewed the
Project and has found it acceptable. The Planning Commission finds and
determines that the Project is consistent with the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code
and the provisions of the state Surface Mining and Reclamation Act of 1975 (Cal.
Pub. Res. Code SS 2710 et seq.: "SMARA").
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-103
PAGE20F6
SECTION 2. That in accordance with Chapter 14.04 of the Lake Elsinore
Municipal Code, the Planning Commission makes the following findings for the
approval of Reclamation Plan No. 2006-01:
1. The granting of the permit or approval of the plan will not be detrimental to the
public health, welfare or safety or injurious to the property in such zone or
vicinity.
Approval of the Reclamation Plan will not be detrimental to the public health,
welfare or safety or injurious to neighboring properties given that the
Reclamation Plan was designed to minimize exposure of the mining and
reclamation activities to the public. The Project design encourages
concentration of mining and reclamation activities within the inner-most
boundaries of the Project site and requires set backs consistent with the Lake
Elsinore Municipal Code. The Project has been conditioned to comply with the
Lake Elsinore Noise Ordinance and is subject to all enforcement provisions of
the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code. In addition, the potentially significant
environmental effects of the Project have been analyzed and have been
mitigated to a statistical level of insignificance pursuant to Mitigated Negative
Declaration 2006-06 and the corresponding Mitigation Monitoring and
Reporting Program.
2. The Reclamation Plan complies with SMARA ~ 2772 and ~ 2773, and any
other applicable provisions.
Reclamation Plan 2006-01 contains all of the required elements outlined in
SMARA ~ 2772. The Reclamation Plan identifies the name and address of the
surface mining operator, the quantity and type of minerals to be extracted,
proposed initiation and termination dates, maximum anticipated depth of
surface mining operation, maps describing the topographic details of the
Project, a time schedule for mining operations, a description of proposed use or
potential uses after reclamation, a description of reclamation, and an
assessment of the effect of implementation of the plan.
Additionally, Reclamation Plan 2006-01 complies with the standards set forth
in SMARA ~ 2773 because the Reclamation Plan was drafted and tailored
specifically to the Nichols Canyon Mine property.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-103
PAGE30F6
3. The Reclamation Plan complies with applicable requirements of State
regulations (14 C.C.R. SS3500-3505, and SS 3700-3713).
Reclamation Plan No. 2006-01 was reviewed pursuant to the State Mining and
Geology Board reclamation regulations. Title 14 of the California Code of
Regulations, Section 3502 identifies six elements which shall be discussed in a
Reclamation Plan. Those six elements include: the environmental setting of the
site, the public health and safety, the designed steepness and proposed
treatment of mined lands' final slopes, areas mined to produce additional
material for backfilling and grading, disposition of old equipment, and
temporary stream or watershed diversion. Reclamation Plan No. 2006-01
extensively discusses each of these elements. The Reclamation Plan is designed
to minimize impacts to the surrounding community and environment. The
Reclamation Plan satisfies all of the provisions of the City's Surface Mining
and Reclamation Chapter (Lake Elsinore Municipal Code Chapter 14.04),
which is the City's implementation of SMARA.
4. The Reclamation Plan and potential use of reclaimed land pursuant to the plan
are consistent with the Chapter 14.04 and the City's General Plan all other
applicable provisions of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code.
According to the Lake Elsinore General Plan Land Use Element, the City is
experiencing significant growth opportunities in terms of new development and
redevelopment. A majority of the City's acreage is under construction,
approved for construction, or is planned for development. The Land Use
Element encourages future urbanization while preserving the environmental
characteristics which contribute to a quality of life that attracts residents to the
community. Approval of Reclamation Plan 2006-01 assists the City's
development goals and intent of the Land Use Element by encouraging the
extractive industry and enabling production of necessary raw materials to
sustain future development within the City and surrounding areas.
The Reclamation Plan is also consistent with the terms of the Open Space
Element of the General Plan. The primary focus of the Open Space Element is
to encourage conservation, protection and proper management of natural
resources within the City. The purpose of the Reclamation Plan is to reclaim,
rehabilitate, and revegetate areas that have been disturbed by mining activities.
-
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-103
PAGE 4 OF 6
Indeed, a substantial number of acres of the reclaimed land will be reserved for
open space designation throughout the reclamation process.
Finally, the Project has been reviewed pursuant to the Lake Elsinore Municipal
Code Chapter 14.04 and is consistent with the standards set forth therein.
5. The Reclamation Plan has been reviewed pursuant to CEQA and the City's
environmental review guidelines, and all significant adverse impacts from
reclamation of the surface mining operations are mitigated to the maximum
extent feasible.
Pursuant to the CEQA and the CEQA Guidelines, Mitigated Negative
Declaration No. 2006-06 and the corresponding Mitigation Monitoring and
Reporting Program were prepared for the Project. Implementation of the
mitigation contained in those documents will reduce any potentially significant
environmental effects of the Project to a statistical level of insignificance.
6. The land and/or resources such as water bodies to be reclaimed will be restored
to a condition that is compatible with, and blends in with, the surrounding
natural environment, topography, and other resources, or that suitable off-site
development will compensate for related disturbance to resource values.
The Project lies within the Alberhill Ranch Specific Plan and is subject to the
zoning requirements set forth therein. The Alberhill Ranch Specific Plan zones
the 211.40 acre site for both commercial and open space uses. The grading
plan and anticipated schedule of revegetation set forth in the Reclamation Plan
are consistent with the underlying zoning designations and encourage
maximum use of the property. Any disturbance to the land or other natural
resources caused by mining activities will be rehabilitated pursuant to the terms
of the Reclamation Plan. The City Engineering Division has conditioned the
Project to maintain finished slopes of 2H: 1 V, which is consistent with
engineering industry standards. Such slopes can safely abut commercial uses
and are less likely to fail when compared to steeper slopes. In addition, the
vegetation palette includes native plants which will encourage the
establishment and proliferation of other native species.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-103
PAGE 5 OF 6
7. The Reclamation Plan will restore the mined lands to a usable condition which
is readily adaptable for alternative land uses consistent with the General Plan
and applicable resource plan.
Reclamation Plan 2006-01 is designed to comply with the City's Surface
Mining and Reclamation policies set forth in the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code
Chapter 14.04 and the Alberhill Ranch Specific Plan Amendment No.3.
Reclamation of the mined lands will result in approximately 98.48 acres of
flatly graded land which is commercially zoned under the Alberhill Ranch
Specific Plan Amendment No.3. This commercially zoned property affronts the
1-15 freeway and Nichols Road, which is a prime commercial corridor within
the City. The approximate 98.48 acres will be restored to support future open
space and commercial uses.
8. A written response to the State Department of Conservation has been prepared,
describing the disposition of major issues raised by that Department. Where the
City's position is at a variance with the recommendations and objections raised
by the State Department of Conservation, said response shall address, in detail,
why specific comments and suggestions were not accepted.
On March 20, 2006, the City of Lake Elsinore Planning Department received
comments from the Department of Conservation regarding the Nichols Mine
Reclamation Plan. Comments identified in that letter have been incorporated
into the Final Reclamation Plan and will be forwarded to the Department of
Conservation.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING TO
THE CITY COUNCIL ADOPTION OF FINDINGS THAT THE
COMMERCIAL DESIGN REVIEW NO. 2006-05 IS CONSISTENT
WITH THE MULTIPLE-SPECIES HABITAT CONSERVATION
PLAN (MSHCP)
WHEREAS, Laing CP Lake Elsinore, LLC has submitted an application for
Commercial Design Review No. 2006-05 for a clubhouse building and associated

WHEREAS, Section 6.0 of the MSHCP requires that all discretionary
proj ects within an MSHCP criteria cell undergo the Lake Elsinore Acquisition
Process ("LEAP") and Joint Project Review ("JPR") to analyze the scope of the
proposed development and establish a building envelope that is consistent with the
MSHCP criteria; and
WHEREAS, Section 6.0 of the MSHCP further requires that the City of
Lake Elsinore adopt consistency findings demonstrating that the proposed
discretionary entitlement complies with the MSCHP cell criteria, and the MSCHP
goals and objectives; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Lake Elsinore Municipal Code Section 17.82,
requests for commercial design review are discretionary actions to be considered,
reviewed, and approved, conditionally approved or denied by the Lake Elsinore
City Council; and
WHEREAS, the Project site is within two distinct MSHCP criteria cells:
approximately three (3) acres of the total site are within cell 4846 and
approximately three tenths (0.3) acres are within cell 4937; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Cal.
Pub. Res. Code SS 21000 et seq.: "CEQA") and the CEQA Guidelines (14 C.C.R.
SS 15000 et seq.), public agencies are expressly encouraged to reduce delay and

PAGE 2 OF 6
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 proj ect, 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, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines 15162, the Project does
not present substantial changes or new information regarding the potential
environmental impacts of development; and
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 October 3, 2006.
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 Project and has
evaluated the Project's consistency with the MSHCP prior to recommending that
the City Council adopt Findings of Consistency with the MSHCP.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning law, the
City of Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, and the MSHCP, the Planning Commission
makes the following findings that the Project is consistent with the MSHCP:
MSHCP CONSISTENCY FINDINGS
1. The Project is a project under the City's MSHCP Resolution, and the City
must make an MSHCP Consistency finding before approval.
Pursuant to the City's MSHCP Resolution, the Project must be reviewed for
MSHCP consistency, which review shall include an analysis of the Project's
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-104
PAGE30F6
consistency with other "Plan Wide Requirements." The Project is located
within the East Lake Specific Plan (ELSP) area, specifically within the ELSP
Amendment No. 6 area. Prior to the City's adoption of the MSHCP, there
were a series of meetings between the County of Riverside, Us. Fish and
Wildlife Service, and California Department of Fish and Game to discuss
conservation measures within the ELSP and to decide how to ensure
development within the ELSP could proceed consistently with the MSHCP
and with the US. Army Corps of Engineers Section 404 permit. It was
determined that a target acreage of 770 acres was warranted for MSHCP
conservation in the back basin area of the City. The Project site is within
the ELSP and is covered by that conservation agreement. Part of the
conservation agreement also included a requirement that projects in the
back basin area be consistent with the other "Plan Wide Requirements" set
forth in the following sections of the MSHCP: Protection of Species
Associated with Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pool Guidelines
(MSHCP, ~ 6.1.2), Protection of Narrow Endemic Plant Species Guidelines
(MSHCP, ~ 6.1.3), Additional Survey Needs and Procedures (MSHCP, ~
6.3.2), Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines (MSHCP, ~ 6.1.4), Vegetation
Mapping (MSHCP, ~ 6.3.1) requirements, Fuels Management Guidelines
(MSHCP, ~ 6.4), and payment of the MSHCP Local Development Mitigation
Fee (MSHCP Ordinance, ~ 4). The Project has been reviewed in light of
these sections and is consistent therewith.
2. The proposed project is subject to the City's LEAP and the County's Joint
Project Review processes.
The ELSP MSCHP consistency determination was submitted to the County
of Riverside in October 2003, prior to the initiation of the City's LEAP and
County's Joint Project Review process. Nevertheless, both the County and
Dudek (acting on behalf of the County) agreed that the Project was
consistent with the MSHCP due to the extensive acreage set aside for
conservation. The Project has not been modified and was part of the overall
ELSP which has been determined to be consistent with the MSHCP.
3. The Project is consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pools
Guidelines.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-104
PAGE40F6
The previously approved ELSP Amendment No.6 was determined to be
consistent with the Riparian/Riverine and Vernal Pool Guidelines as set
forth in MSHCP ~ 6.1.2. The scope and nature of the Project have not been
modified from that which was previously approved and is therefore
consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pools Guidelines.
4. The Project is consistent with the Protection of Narrow Endemic Plant
Species Guidelines.
The previously approved ELSP Amendment No.6 was consistent with the
Protection of Narrow Endemic Plant Species Guidelines as set forth in
MSHCP ~ 6.1.3. The Project has not been modified from that which was
previously approved under the ELSP Amendment No.6. Additionally, based
upon prior approvals, the entire project site has been graded and any plant
species which may have existed on the site have been removed. It is for
these reasons that the Project is consistent with the aforementioned
guidelines.
5. The Project is consistent with the Additional Survey Needs and Procedures.
The previously approved ELSP Amendment No.6 was consistent with the
Additional Survey Needs and Procedures as set forth in MSHCP ~ 6.3.2.
The Project has not been modified from that which was previously approved
under the ELSP Amendment No.6, and the entire project site has been
graded pursuant to previously issued permits. The Project is consistent with
the Additional Survey Needs and Procedures of the MSHCP.
6. The Project is consistent with the Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines.
The previously approved ELSP Amendment No.6 was consistent with the
Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines as set forth in MSHCP ~ 6.1.4.
Because the Project has not been modified from that which was previously
approved under the ELSP Amendment No.6, no further MSHCP review is
necessary and the Project is consistent with the Urban/Wildlands Interface
Guidelines.
7. The Project is consistent with the Vegetation Mapping requirements.
-
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-104
PAGE50F6
The previously approved ELSP Amendment No.6 was consistent with the
Vegetation Mapping requirements as set forth in MSHCP ~ 6.3.1. Mapping
was conducted as part of the biological surveys for the original project. The
Project has not been modified from that which was previously approved and
therefore is consistent with the Vegetation Mapping requirements.
8. The Project is consistent with the Fuels Management Guidelines.
The previously approved ELSP Amendment No.6 was consistent with the
Fuels Management Guidelines as set forth in MSHCP, ~ 6.4. The Project
site is not within or adjacent to conservation areas where the Fuels
Management Guidelines would be required. The Project has not been
modified from that which was previously approved and therefore is
consistent with the Fuel Management Guidelines.
-.
9. The Project will be conditioned to pay the City's MSHCP Local
Development Mitigation Fee.
As a condition of project approval, the Project will be required to pay the
City's MSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fee at the time of issuance of
building permits.
10.The Project overall is consistent with the MSHCP.
As stated in No.1 above, the Project is within the ELSP area which has
previously been determined to be consistent with the MSHCP.
11. There is no substantial evidence, in the light of the whole record before the
agency, that the project as revised may have significant effect on the
environment.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.

CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE
AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The Planning Commission has considered the Project prior to
making a decision to recommend that the City Council approve the Commercial
Design Review No. 2006-05.
SECTION 2. The Planning Commission finds and determines that no new
CEQA documentation is necessary for the Project given that any and all potentially

previously approved and certified Supplemental Environmental Impact Report
(SCH # 2003071050) for the East Lake Specific Plan Amendment No.6.
SECTION 3. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning Law and
the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, the Planning Commission makes the following
findings for the approval of the Commercial Design Review No. 2006-05:
1. The Project, as approved, will comply with the goals and objectives of the
General Plan, Specific Plan and the Zoning District in which the Project is
located.
The Project complies with the goals and objectives of the General Plan and
the East Lake Specific Plan Amendment No. 6 in that the approval of this
clubhouse building will assist in the creation of additional job opportunities
within the community. Moreover, the Project will assist in achieving the
development of a well-balanced and functional mix of residential,
commercial, industrial, open space, recreational and institutional land uses
as well as encouraging commercial land uses to diversify Lake Elsinore's
economic base.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006 -105
PAGE 3 OF 4
2. The Project complies with the design directives contained in the East Lake
Specific Plan Amendment No. 6 and all applicable provisions of the Lake
Elsinore Municipal Code.
The Project is appropriate to the site and surrounding developments in that
the clubhouse building has been designed in consideration of the size and
shape of the property. Sufficient setbacks and onsite landscaping have been
provided thereby creating interest and varying vistas. In addition, safe and
efficient circulation has been achieved onsite. Further, the Project will
complement the future proposed residential development and will create a
visually pleasing, non-detractive relationship between the proposed
development. The Craftsman style architecture of the building will also be
used within the residential development and will tie the architecture of the
two segments of the community together. Design features such as wood
shingles, elongated windows with wide wood trim, wood trellis porte
cochere with masonry based columns, exposed rafter tails, wood outlookers
and varying roof lines 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.
The Project, as reviewed and conditioned by all applicable City divisions,
departments and agencies, will not have a significant effect on the
environment. The potential impacts associated with the project do not result
in substantial change to the previously adopted Supplemental Environmental
Impact Report. Therefore, no additional environmental review is necessary
for the proposed project pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162.
4. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to Chapter 17.82.070 of the Zoning
Code, including guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions,
have been incorporated into the approval of the Project to ensure
development of the property in accordance with the objectives of Chapter
17.82.
Pursuant to Section 17.82.070 of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, the
Project has been scheduled for consideration and approval of the Planning
Commission on October 3, 2006.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.

MSHCP CONSISTENCY FINDINGS
1. The Project is a project under the City's MSHCP Resolution, and the City
must make an MSHCP consistency finding before approval.
Pursuant to the City's MSHCP Resolution, the Project is required to be
reviewed for MSHCP consistency, including consistency with other "Plan
Wide Requirements." The proposed Project site is not located within a
MSHCP criteria cell. However, based on requirements of the MSHCP, the
Project was still required to be consistent with Section 6.1.2
Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pool Guidelines and Section 6.3.2
Critical Area Species Survey Area Guidelines.
2. The Project is subject to the City's LEAP and the County's Joint Project
Review processes.
Because the proposed Project is not located within a MSHCP Criteria Cell,
it was not processed through a Joint Project Review.
3. The Project is consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pools
Guidelines.
A site inspection revealed no riparian/riverine areas or vernal pools on the
Project site. Further, the Project site is completely surrounded by existing
development. The Project is therefore consistent with the Riparian/Riverine

setforth in Section 6.1.3. Nofurther MSHCP action is required.
5. The Project is consistent with the Additional Survey Needs and Procedures.
The Project is located within the Burrowing Owl Survey Area, and is
therefore subject to Critical Area Species Survey Area Guidelines as set
forth in Section 6.3.2 of the MSHCP. The site was inspected by City Stafffor
the presence of burrowing owls or suitable habitat for this species. No
burrowing owls or suitable habitat are present on the Project site. Further
the Project site is surrounded by existing development. The Project is
therefore consistent with Section 6.3.2 of the MSHCP. No further MSHCP
action is required.

As stated above, the proposed Project is completely surrounded by
development. Therefore, the Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines set forth
in Section 6.1.4 of the MSHCP are not applicable. No further MSHCP
action is required.
7. The Project is consistent with the Vegetation Mapping requirements.
There are no resources existing on site that would be subject to the
Vegetation Mapping requirements of Section 6.3.1 of the MSHCP. No
further MSHCP action is required.
8. The Project is consistent with the Fuels Management Guidelines.
As stated above, the Project is completely surrounded by development.
Therefore, the Fuels Management Guidelines of Section 6.4 of the MSHCP
are not applicable. No further MSHCP action is required.

well-balanced and functional mix of residential, commercial, industrial, open
space, recreational and institutional uses as well as encouraging industrial
land uses to diversify Lake Elsinore's economic base.
The General Plan designationfor the Project site is Business Park. The primary
purpose of areas designated Business Park is to provide for light industrial,

relationship between the proposed and existing projects in that the
architectural design, color, and materials, and site design proposed evidence a
concern for quality and originality. The industrial building has been designed
to include a twenty-foot (20') front-yard landscaped setback, architectural roof
cornicing, eight-inch (8 '') concrete panel pop-outs, and adequate onsite
landscaping.
The industrial building will be constructed of concrete "tilt-up" walls. The
primary color of the walls will be "white, " the accent pop-out walls will be the
color "brown, " and have a lower band color of "beige." All roll-up doors will
be painted "brown" and the architectural roof cornice will be stuccoed foam
painted "brown." The windows and doors at the front of the building will be
comprised of anodized aluminum with solar glazing in a "solar gray. "

RESOLUTION NO. 2006-110
RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A
MINOR DESIGN REVIEW FOR A SINGLE-FAMILY
RESIDENCE
WHEREAS, Julian Suarez has filed an application with the City of Lake
Elsinore requesting approval of Minor Design Review for a single-family dwelling
unit on property located approximately 145- feet northwest of Machado Street and
20-feet southwest of Larson Road, at 15087 Larson Road (APN: 379-080-050) (the
"Project"); and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore has
been delegated with the responsibility of considering and approving, conditionally
approving, or denying Minor Design Review requests for residential proj ects; and
WHEREAS, notice of the Minor Design Review consideration has been
given and the Planning Commission has considered evidence presented by the
Community Development Department and other interested parties with respect to
this item on October 17, 2006.
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
design for the single-family dwelling unit and has found it acceptable. The
Planning Commission finds and determines that the Project is consistent with the
Lake Elsinore Municipal Code ("LEMC") and the R-l (Single-Family Residential)
development standards.
SECTION 2. The Planning Commission finds and determines that the
Project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
(Cal. Pub. Res. Code ~~ 21000 et seq.: "CEQA") and the CEQA Guidelines (14

or conversion of small structures (14 C.C.R. ~ 15303(a)).
SECTION 3. That in accordance with Chapter 17.82 (Design Review) of
the LEMC, the Planning Commission makes the following findings for the
approval of the Project:
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-110
PAGE20F4
1. The Project, as approved, will comply with the goals and objectives of the
intended General Plan and the Zoning District in which the Project will be
located.
The Project complies with the goals and objectives of General Plan
designation Low Medium Density (LMD) as well as R-l (Single-Family
Residential) zoning district. The General Plan designation of Low Medium
Density (LMD) is intended for quality single-family homes in areas of
generally level topography with available public services and infrastructure
and has been located in areas where services are not immediately available
but can be extended without causing substantial over-extension of facilities.
The R-l (Single-Family Residential) zoning district is intended to
accommodate low density projects comprised of quality single-family
residences developed in an urban environment with available public services
and infrastructure. Approval of the Project will assist in achieving the
development of a well balanced and functional mix of residential, limited
commercial, limited industrial, open space, recreational and institutional
land uses by providing additional affordable housing within R-l (Single-
Family Residential) zoning district and the City of Lake Elsinore. The
Project contributes to the development and maintenance of a broad range of
housing types for all income groups and age categories.
The Project, which incorporates elements of "Ranch" style architecture, will
provide a well-rounded design while maintaining the desirable rural
characteristics and base framework to achieve quality and compatibility in
the physical design of the developing portions of the City, and to enhance
the existing developed areas within General Plan designation Low Medium
Density (LMD) and R-l (Single-Family Residential) zoning designation.
2. The Project complies with the design directives contained in Section
17.82.060 and all other applicable provisions of the Municipal Code.
The Project is appropriate to the site and surrounding developments in that
the proposed single-family residence has provided: a forty-foot (40') front-
yard setback, a jifty-three foot (53') rear-yard setback, sufficient front-yard
landscaping, and safe and sufficient on-site vehicular circulation. Further,
the Project will complement the quality of existing projects in that the
applicant is providing elements of "Ranch" style architecture which
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-110
PAGE30F4
includes: Ranch style window surrounds with divided window lites,
decorative coach lights, ledge stone base veneer (Rustic Southern), arched
front-entry columns, a chimney with a cap, and a concrete tile roof In
addition, the applicant is providing a variety of colors and material which
include: La Habra stucco painted "Misty," widow/door trim painted
"white, " a rear open-trellis wood patio painted "white" and a "brown"
light-weight concrete tile roof
3. Subject to the attached conditions of approval, the Project is not anticipated
to result in any significant adverse environmental impacts.
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15303(a), the Project is exempt from
environmental review because it involves the construction of one single-
family residence in a residential zone.
4. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to Chapter 17.82.070 of the Zoning
Code, including guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions,
have been incorporated into the approval of the Project to ensure
development of the property in accordance with the objectives of Chapter
17.82.
Pursuant to LEMC Section 17.82.070 the Project has been scheduled for
consideration and action of the Planning Commission on October 17, 2006.
The Project has also been conditioned to comply with the LEMC. For
example, condition of approval Number 8 states: "All site improvements
shall be constructed as indicated on the approved site plan and elevations,
with revisions as noted herein. The Applicant shall meet all required
setbacks and development standards pursuant to the R-1 (Single-Family
Residential) Zoning district. "
SECTION 4. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.

RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A
MINOR DESIGN REVIEW FOR A SINGLE FAMILY
RESIDENCE
WHEREAS, an application has been filed with the City of Lake Elsinore by
Rob Skrede and Natalie Tornero requesting approval of a Minor Design Review
for a single family residence to be constructed on a vacant lot located at 988
Miramar Street (APN 373-054-021); and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore has
been delegated with the responsibility of approving, conditionally approving, or
denying Minor Design Review requests for residential projects; and
WHEREAS, public notice of said application 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

design for the single family residence and has found it acceptable. The Planning
Commission finds and determines that the Project is consistent with the Lake
Elsinore Municipal Code ("LEMC") and the Historic Overlay District.
SECTION 2. The Planning Commission finds and determines that the
Project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
(Cal. Pub. Res. Code ~~ 21000 et seq.: "CEQA") and the CEQA Guidelines (14
C.C.R. ~~ 15000 et seq.) pursuant to a class 3(a) exemption for new construction
or conversion of small structures (14 C.C.R. ~ 15303(a)).
SECTION 3. That in accordance with Chapter 17.82 (Design Review) of
the LEMC, the Planning Commission makes the following findings for the
approval of the Project:
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.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-111
PAGE20F3
The Project complies with the goals and objectives of the General Plan in that
the approval of this single family residence will assist in achieving the
development of a well-balanced and functional mix of residential homes, as
well as encouraging the development and maintenance of a broad range of
housing types for all income groups and age categories in that the applicant is
proposing a conventionally built home utilizing Monterey architectural design.
2. The Project complies with the design directives contained in LEMC Section
17.82.060 and all other applicable provisions of the Municipal Code.
The Project is appropriate in size and design to the lot and meets all setback
requirements, provides front yard landscaping, and complies with the Historic
Elsinore Architectural Design Standards by proposing Monterey style
architecture. Features include second story balconies with wood railing and
covered roofs, multiple paned windows with wide trim, shutters, cultured stone
wainscot, multiple roof lines with rafter tails, and a tower structure. The single
family residence will complement the quality of existing development and will
create a visually pleasing, non-detractive relationship between the proposed
and existing projects in that the architectural design, color and materials
proposed meet or exceed the size and design of the homes in the surrounding
area.
3. Subject to the attached conditions of approval, the Project is not anticipated to
result in any significant adverse environmental impacts.
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15303(a), the Project is exempt from
environmental review because it involves the construction of one single-family
residence in a residential zone.
4. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to LEMC Chapter 17.82.100, including
guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions, have been incorporated
into the approval of the Proj ect to ensure development of the property in
accordance with the objectives of Chapter 17.82.

consideration and approval of the Planning Commission. The Project has been
evaluated pursuant to LEMC Section 17.82.100 (Minor Design Review), all
other provisions of the LEMC, and the Historic Standards. The Project was
found to be in compliance with all regulations and objectives of LEMC and the

CREEK, IN TENTATIVE TRACT MAP NO. 31792
WHEREAS, Lennar Homes has filed an application with the City of
Lake Elsinore to remediate and stabilize an existing manufactured slope (the
"Proj ect"); and
WHEREAS, the Slope Stabilization Plan qualifies as a "project"
under California Public Resources Code Section 21065, which defines a
project for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (Cal. Pub.
Res. Code SS 21000 et seq.: "CEQA") as any activity which may cause
either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably
foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and which includes
the issuance to a person of a lease, permit, license, certificate, or other
entitlement for use by one or more public agencies; and
WHEREAS, the Initial Study revealed that the Project may have
potentially significant environmental impacts. Nevertheless, it was
determined that an environmental impact report was not necessary and that
all of the potentially significant environmental impacts could be mitigated to
a level of insignificance with the mitigation measures and conditions of
approval imposed on the Project. Therefore, it was determined that it would
be appropriate under CEQA to prepare Mitigated Negative Declaration No.
2006-07 to address the potentially significant environmental impacts; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore
has been delegated with the responsibility of making recommendations to
the City Council regarding environmental documents; and
WHEREAS, public notice of the Project has been given, and the
Planning Commission has considered evidence presented by the Community

held with respect to this item on October 17, 2006.
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
Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2006-07 and related Mitigation
Monitoring Program prior to recommending to the City Council that the
documents be approved. The Planning Commission finds and determines
that Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2006-07 and related Mitigation
Monitoring Program are adequate and prepared in accordance with the
requirements of CEQA.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with CEQA, State Planning and
Zoning law, and the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, the Planning
Commission makes the following findings for the approval of Mitigated
Negative Declaration No. 2006-07 and the related Mitigation Monitoring
Program:
1. On the basis of the whole record before the Planning Commission,
including the initial study and both verbal and written testimony
received from the public, there is no substantial evidence that the
project will have a significant effect on the environment.
2. Based on the lack of native habitat on the Project site, there is no
potential for the Project to affect the fish or wildlife species or
plants or plant communities. No known historical or prehistoric
resources exist on the Proj ect site.
3. The Project does not have individual nor cumulative impacts that
would be deemed considerable.
4. The Project will not result in any significant impacts to human
beings. Sufficient construction control measures have been
identified to reduce short-term construction impacts to below a
level of significance. Compliance with the many federal, state and
local regulations already placed on the Project will ensure that the

THAT THE PROJECT IDENTIFIED AS SLOPE STABILIZATION
PLAN FOR WASSON CREEK ("ROSETTA HILLS") AND
ASSOCIATED MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION NO. 2006-
07 IS EXEMPT FROM THE WESTERN RIVERSIDE COUNTY
MULTI-SPECIES HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN ("MSHCP")
WHEREAS, pur suant to a condition of approval imposed upon Design
Review No. 2005-20, which was approved by the Lake Elsinore Planning
Commission on June 20, 2006, Lennar Homes, c/o Ellen Michiel, has submitted a
Slope Stabilization Plan for Wasson Creek ("Rosetta Hills") to perform remedial
grading to reconstruct and stabilize an existing manufactured slope (the "Project");
and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Cal.
Pub. Res. Code SS 21000 et seq.: "CEQA") and the CEQA Guidelines (14 C.C.R.
SS 15000 et seq.), Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2006-07 and a Mitigation
Monitoring and Reporting Program have been prepared to mitigate environmental
impacts resulting from the Project to a level of insignificance; and
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 October 17, 2006.
NOW THEREFORE, THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE
AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The Planning Commission hereby determines that the Project
is exempt from the MSHCP for the following two reasons:
First, the Slope Stabilization Plan and corresponding Mitigated Negative
Declaration No. 2006-07 constitute a part of the whole action related to
development of the Villages at Wasson Canyon. The Slope Stabilization Plan and
corresponding Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2006-07 have been drafted in
satisfaction of the conditions of approval for Design Review No. 2005-20. The
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-113
PAGE20F2
Slope Stabilization Plan and Mitigated Negative Declaration No. 2006-07 do not
constitute a new discretionary project for purposes of environmental review.
Second, the Slope Stabilization Plan outlines remediation for slopes that
were scarred and developed as part of the formation of CFD No. 90-3. The Project
site has already been disturbed by grading activities as part of the CFD
development. Given the level of disturbance, no sensitive habitat exists on the site
worthy of preservation or dedication.
SECTION 2. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.

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 Project's
consistency with the MSHCP prior to recommending that the City Council adopt
Findings of Consistency with the MSHCP.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning laws, the
Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, and the MSHCP, the Planning Commission makes
the following MSHCP Consistency Findings:
MSHCP CONSISTENCY FINDINGS
1. The Project is a project under the City's MSHCP Resolution, and the City
must make an MSHCP Consistency finding before approval.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-114
PAGE30F5
Pursuant to the City's MSHCP Resolution, the Project is required to be
reviewed for MSHCP consistency, including consistency with other "Plan
Wide Requirements." The Project site lies within Criteria Cell #4647.
However, based upon a verbal "common law vested rights agreement"
between the City and the previous landowner, the site was exempted from
the MSHCP. This agreement was the result of the previous landowner's
extensive costs associated with infrastructure and road construction in that
area prior to the City's involvement in the MSHCP. Based upon the site
reconnaissance survey there are no issues regarding consistency with the
MSCHP's other "Plan Wide Requirements." The only requirements
potentially applicable to the Project were the Protection of Species
Associated with Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pool Guidelines
(MSHCP, ~ 6.1.2) and payment of the MSHCP Local Development
Mitigation Fee (MSHCP Ordinance, ~ 4). The Project site has already been
graded as approved under the previous agreement and no habitat is present
on site, including riparian/riverine areas or vernal pools.
2. The Project is subject to the City's LEAP and the County's Joint Project
Review processes.
As stated above, the Project is exempt from the MSHCP by virtue of a
common law vested rights agreement between the previous landowner and
the City. Therefore, the Project was not processed through a Joint Project
Review.
3. The Project is consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pools
Guidelines.
The Project is exempt from the requirements of the MSHCP based upon a
common law vested right. The site reconnaissance survey revealed that no
riparian, riverine, vernal pool/fairy shrimp habitat or other aquatic
resources exist on the site. As such, the Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal
Pool Guidelines as set forth in Section 6.1.2 of the MSHCP are not
applicable.
4. The Project is consistent with the Protection of Narrow Endemic Plant
Species Guidelines.
The Project is exempt from the requirements of the MSHCP based upon a
common law vested right. Further, the site does not fall within any Narrow
Endemic Plant Species Survey Areas. Neither a habitat assessment nor
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-114
PAGE 4 OF 5
further focused surveys are requiredfor the Project. Therefore, Protection
of Narrow Endemic Plant Species Guidelines as set forth in Section 6.1.3 of
the MSHCP are not applicable to the Project.
5. The Project is consistent with the Additional Survey Needs and Procedures.
The Project is exempt from the requirements of the MSHCP based upon a
common law vested right. Further, the MSHCP only requires additional
surveys for certain species if the Project is located in Criteria Area Species
Survey Areas, Amphibian Species Survey Areas, Burrowing Owl Survey
Areas, and Mammal Species Survey Areas of the MSHCP. The Project site
is not located within any of the Critical Species Survey Areas. Therefore,
the provisions of MSCHP Section 6.3.2 are not applicable.
6. The Project is consistent with the Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines.
The Project is exempt from the requirements of the MSHCP based upon a
common law vested right. The Project site is not within or adjacent to any
MSHCP criteria or conservation areas. Therefore, the Urban/Wildlands
Interface Guidelines of MSHCP Section 6.1.4 are not applicable. No
additional mitigation measures or conditions of approval are required.
7. The Project is consistent with the Vegetation Mapping requirements.
The Project is exempt from the requirements of the MSHCP based upon a
common law vested right. The entire Project site has been rough-graded.
There are no resources located on the Project site requiring mapping as set
forth in MSCHP Section 6. 3.1.
8. The Project is consistent with the Fuels Management Guidelines.
The Project is exempt from the requirements of the MSHCP based upon a
common law vested right. Further, the Project site is not within or adjacent
to any MSHCP criteria or conservation areas. Therefore, the Fuels
Management Guidelines of MSHCP Section 6.4 are not applicable. No
additional mitigation measures or conditions or approval are required.
9. The Project will be conditioned to pay the City's MSHCP Local
Development Mitigation Fee.
As a condition of approval, the Project will be required to pay the City's
MSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fee at the time of issuance of
building permits.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-114
PAGE50F5
10.The Project is consistent with the MSHCP.
As stated in Finding No. 1 above, the Project is exempt from the
requirements of the MSHCP based upon a "common law vested rights
agreement" between the City and the previous landowner.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.

WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore has
been delegated with the responsibility of making recommendations to the City
Council for Design Reviews; and
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 October 3,2006.
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 Project prior to
making a decision to recommend that the City Council approve Commercial
Design Review No. 2006-02.
SECTION 2. That 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, that CEQA Guidelines Section 15162 establishes the standard to be
used when determining whether subsequent environmental documentation is
necessary. Section 15162 says that when an environmental document has already
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006 -115
PAGE20F4
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.
The Planning Commission hereby finds that a Mitigated Negative
Declaration was approved and adopted for the Summerhill Specific Plan and
evaluated environmental impacts that would result from maximum build-out of the
specific plan. Office condominium uses are consistent with the Summerhill
Specific Plan and any environmental impacts that might result from development
of the Project have been adequately analyzed under the previous Mitigated
Negative Declaration and given that the Project does not present substantial
changes or new information regarding environmental impacts, no additional
environmental documentation is necessary.
SECTION 3. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning Law and
the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, the Planning Commission makes the following
findings for the approval of the Commercial Design Review No. 2006-02:
1. The Project, as approved, will comply with the goals and objectives of the
General Plan, Specific Plan and the Zoning District in which the Project is
located.
The Project complies with the goals and objectives of the General Plan and,
Canyon Creek "Summerhill" Specific Plan in that the approval of this
professional office building will assist in the creation of additional job
opportunities within the community. Moreover, the Project will assist in
achieving the development of a well-balanced and functional mix of
residential, commercial, industrial, open space, recreational and
institutional land uses as well as encouraging commercial land uses to
diversify Lake Elsinore's economic base.
2. The Project complies with the design directives contained in the Canyon
Creek "Summerhill" Specific Plan, Section 17.82.060 and all other
applicable provisions of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code.
The Project is appropriate to the site and surrounding developments in that
the professional office building has been designed in consideration of the
size and shape of the property. Sufficient setbacks and onsite landscaping
have been provided thereby creating interest and varying vistas as a person
moves along the street. In addition, safe and efficient circulation has been
achieved onsite. Further, the Project will complement the quality of existing
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006 -115
PAGE30F4
development and will create a visually pleasing, non-detractive relationship
between the proposed development and existing projects in that the
applicant is providing a "Mediterranean" architectural design with various
elements which serve to enhance the building. Moreover, a variety of
materials and colors are proposed including decorative wrought iron
accents, decorative light fixtures and earth tone colors that serve to blend
with surrounding developments and demonstrate 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.
The Project, as reviewed and conditioned by all applicable City divisions,
departments and agencies, will not have a significant effect on the
environment. The potential impacts associated with the Project do not result
in substantial change to the previously certified Canyon Creek
"Summerhill" Specific Plan Mitigated Negative Declaration. Therefore, no
additional environmental review is necessary for the proposed Project
pursuant to Section 15162.
4. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to Chapter 17.82.070 of the Zoning
Code, including guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions,
have been incorporated into the approval of the Proj ect to ensure
development of the property in accordance with the objectives of Chapter
17.82.

therefore consistent with Section 6.3.2 of the MSHCP. No further MSHCP
action is required.
6. The Project is consistent with the Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines.
As stated above, the proposed Project is completely surrounded by
development. Therefore, the Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines set forth

or conversion of small structures (14 C.C.R. ~ 15303(b)).
SECTION 3. That in accordance with LEMC Chapter 17.82 (Design
Review), the Planning Commission makes the following findings for the approval
of the Project:
1. The Project, as approved, will comply with the goals and objectives of the
intended General Plan and the Zoning District in which the Project will be
located.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-119
PAGE20F4
The Project complies with the goals and objectives of General Plan
designation Medium High Density and the Medium High Density (MHD)
zoning designation within Planning Area 6 of the "Historic Elsinore"
Overlay Zoning district. The General Plan designation of Medium High
Density is intended for multiple family attached units and is located in some
areas where service is not immediately available, yet may be extended
without causing substantial over-extension of facilities. The maximum
density permitted shall be 18 dwelling-units to the acre.
The Medium High Density (MHD) zoning designation within Planning Area
6 of the "Historic Elsinore" Overlay Zoning district consists of single-family
detached and attached units, including duplexes, triplexes, townhouses, and
zero lot line (patio) homes. The approval of the Project will assist in
achieving the development of a well balanced and functional mix of
residential, limited commercial, limited industrial, open space, recreational
and institutional land uses by providing additional affordable housing
within Planning Area 6 of the "Historic Elsinore" Overlay Zoning district
and the City of Lake Elsinore. Furthermore, the Project will contribute to
the development and maintenance of a broad range of housing types for all
income groups and age categories.
The Project incorporates elements of "Craftsman" style architecture and
will provide a well rounded design while maintaining the desirable rural
characteristics and base framework to achieve quality and compatibility in
the physical design of the developing portions of the City and to enhance the
existing developed areas within General Plan designation Medium High
Density and zoning designation Medium High Density (MHD) within
Planning Area 6 of the "Historic Elsinore" Overlay Zoning district.
2. The Project complies with the design directives contained in Section
17.82.060 and all other applicable provisions of the Municipal Code.
The Project is appropriate to the site and surrounding developments in that
the Project design incorporates a twenty- foot (20') front-yard setback, a
fifteen- foot (15') rear-yard setback, sufficient front-yard landscaping, and
safe and sufficient on-site vehicular circulation. Further, the Project will
complement the quality of existing projects in that the applicant is providing
elements of "Craftsman" style architecture which includes: stone base
furring, decorative front-entries with elephantine columns and overhead
dormers, "shiplap" siding, window surrounds, coach lights, and a concrete
tile roof The color palate selectedfor the Project includes: Omega stucco
painted "Cheesecake, " trim/siding/accent paint by Frazee Paint in "Gumnut

proposal involves construction of a multi-family residential structure
totaling up to six dwelling units, if the project is located in an urbanized
area. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15303 (b), the Project is exempt from
environmental review because it involves the construction of three (3)
attached two-story dwelling units in a residential zone.
4. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to Chapter 17.82.070 of the Zoning
Code, including guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions,
have been incorporated into the approval of the Proj ect to ensure
development of the property in accordance with the objectives of Chapter

RESOLUTION NO. 2006-120
RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A
MINOR DESIGN REVIEW FOR TWO (2) SINGLE-FAMILY
RESIDENTIAL UNITS
WHEREAS, Hector Zubieta/Zenos Inc. filed an application with the City of
Lake Elsinore requesting approval of Minor Design Review for two (2) single-
family residences on three (3) separate vacant lots located approximately 200 feet
south of the intersection of Kalina Avenue and McPherson Avenue in the area
known as Country Club Heights of the City of Lake Elsinore and legally
identifiable as APN's 378-204-020,-021, and 378-204-031, respectively (the
"Project"); and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore has
been delegated with the responsibility of considering, approving, conditionally
approving, or denying Minor Design Review requests for residential projects; and
WHEREAS, notice of the Project has been given and the Planning
Commission has considered evidence presented by the Community Development
Department and other interested parties with respect to this item on November 7,
2006.
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 Project and
finds that it is consistent with R-l Single-Family Residential standards and
citywide parking requirements as set forth in the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code
("LEMC").
SECTION 2. The Planning Commission finds and determines that the
Project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
(Cal. Pub. Res. Code ~~ 21000 et seq.: "CEQA") and the CEQA Guidelines (14
C.C.R. ~~ 15000 et seq.) pursuant to a Class 3 (a) exemption for infill development
projects (14 C.C.R. ~ 15303).
SECTION 3. That in accordance with LEMC Chapter 17.82, the Planning
Commission makes the following findings for the approval of the Project:
1. The Project will comply with the goals and objectives of the General Plan and
the Zoning District in which the Project is located.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-120
PAGE20F4
The Project complies with the goals and objectives of the General Plan, in that
the approval of the two (2) single-family residences will assist in achieving a
development of a well-balanced and functional mix of residential, commercial,
industrial, open space, recreational and institutional land uses as well as
encouraging the development and maintenance of a broad range of housing
types for all income groups and age categories.
2. The Project complies with the design directives contained in Section 17.82.060
and all other applicable provisions of the LEMC.
The Project, which incorporates Bungalow style architecture, is appropriate in
size and design to each lot. Each single family unit meets all setback
requirements, provides front yard landscaping, and complies with the
Architectural Design Standards for Bungalow style development. Features of
the Bungalow style include: low pitched roofs, covered porch, porch columns,
decorative gable end treatments, stone/brick veneer, casement window frames,
paned glass windows, multiple roof planes, decorative wood braces, and
exposed rafter tails. The architectural design, color and materials proposed for
use on the two single family residences are distinct yet they blend in with the
features of surrounding homes and complement the quality of existing
development thereby creating a visually pleasing neighborhood.
3. Subject to the conditions of approval imposed upon the Project, the Project is
not anticipated to result in any significant adverse environmental impacts.
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15332, any project which can be
characterized as infill development is exempt from the provisions of CEQA.
lnfill development is defined by the following characteristics: (1) the project is
consistent with the applicable general plan and zoning regulations; (2) the
project occurs within the city limits on a site of no more than five acres
substantially surrounded by urban uses; (3) the project site 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; and (5) the site can be adequately served by all required utilities
and public services.
AGENDA ITEM NO.
PAGE OF
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-120
PAGE30F4
As indicated above, the Project is consistent with the provisions of the Lake
Elsinore General Plan and Zoning Code. Each of the lots to be developed lies
within the City's boundaries and the total development site is less than one
acre. The three lots are completely surrounded on all sides by existing
residences. Given that the Project site is bounded by existing development, and
given that the Project site is not within an MSHCP cell site, the site has no
value as habitat for endangered, rare, or threatened species. Approval of this
Project will not result in any significant effects relating to traffic, noise, air
quality, or water quality. The Project has been reviewed and conditioned by all
City divisions and departments to ensure that the no significant effects will
result. Finally, because the Project site is bordered by existing residences
which are served by all necessary utilities and public services, the new homes
created by this Project will be able to easily tie into the existingfacilities.
For these reasons, it is hereby found and determined that the Project is exempt
from CEQA pursuant to a Class 32 categorical exemption for injill
development.
4. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to Chapter 17.82.1 00 of the Zoning Code,
including guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions, have been
incorporated into the approval of the Project to ensure development of the
property in accordance with the objectives of Chapter 17.82.
Pursuant to LEMC Section 17.82.070, the Project has been scheduled for
consideration and approval by the Planning Commission. The Project has been
evaluated pursuant to LEMC Section 17.82.100 and the City's development
Standards. The Project complies with all regulations and objectives of LEMC.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.

RESOLUTION NO. 2006-121
RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING A
MINOR DESIGN REVIEW FOR A ONE STORY SINGLE-
FAMILY DWELLING UNIT LOCATED ON ALLIS STREET
(APN: 378-302-008).
WHEREAS, Jeff Jones/J.A. Jones Dev. Group filed an application with the
City of Lake Elsinore requesting approval of a Minor Design Review for a one
story single-family residence on property located on Allis Street (APN: 378-302-
008: the "Project"); and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission of the City of Lake Elsinore has
been delegated with the responsibility of considering, approving, conditionally
approving, or denying Minor Design Review requests for residential projects; and
WHEREAS, notice of the Project has been given and the Planning
Commission has considered evidence presented by the Community Development
Department and other interested parties with respect to this item on November 7,
2006.
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 Project and
finds that it is consistent with R-l Single-Family Residential standards and
citywide parking requirements as set forth in the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code
("LEMC").
SECTION 2. The Planning Commission finds and determines that the
Project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
(Cal. Pub. Res. Code ~~ 21000 et seq.: "CEQA") and the CEQA Guidelines (14
C.C.R. SS 15000 et seq.) pursuant to a class 3(a) exemption for new construction
or conversion of small structures because the Project involves construction of one
single-family residence. (See 14 C.C.R. ~ 15303(a)).
SECTION 3. That in accordance with Chapter 17.82 (Design Review) of
the LEMC, the Planning Commission makes the following findings for the

1. The project will comply with the goals and objectives of the intended
General Plan and the Zoning District in which the Project will be located.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-121
PAGE 2 OF 4
The Project complies with the goals and objectives of General Plan
designation Medium Density (MD) as well as R-1 (Single-Family
Residential) zoning district. The General Plan designation of Medium
Density (MD) is intended for quality single-family homes in areas of
generally level topography with available public services and infrastructure
and has been located in areas where services are not immediately available
but can be extended without causing substantial over-extension of facilities.
The R-1 (Single-Family Residential) zoning district is intended to
accommodate low density projects comprised of quality single-family
residences developed in an urban environment with available public services
and infrastructure. Approval of the Project will assist in achieving the
development of a well balanced and functional mix of residential, limited
commercial, limited industrial, open space, recreational and institutional
land uses by providing additional affordable housing within R -1 (Single-
Family Residential) zoning district and the City of Lake Elsinore. The
Project contributes to the development and maintenance of a broad range of
housing types for all income groups and age categories.
The Project, which incorporates elements of "Mediterranean" style
architecture, will provide a well-rounded design while maintaining the
desirable rural characteristics and base framework to achieve quality and
compatibility in the physical design of the developing portions of the City,
and to enhance the existing developed areas within General Plan
designation Medium Density (MD) and R-1 (Single-Family Residential)
zoning designation.
2. The Project complies with the design directives contained in Section
17.82.060 and all other applicable provisions of the Municipal Code.
The Project is appropriate to the site and surrounding developments in that
the single family dwelling unit integrates a twenty foot (20') front yard and
rear yard setback, sufficient front yard landscaping and safe and sufficient
on-site vehicular circulation. Further, use of the Mediterranean style
architecture in the Project complements the quality of existing development
and will create a visually pleasing, non-detractive relationship with existing
projects in the area.
3. Subject to the attached conditions of approval, the Project is not anticipated
to result in any significant adverse environmental impacts.
A Class 3 CEQA exemption may be invoked when the development proposal
involves construction of one single family residential structure. Pursuant to
AGENDA ITEM NO.
PAGE OF
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 2006-121
PAGE30F4
CEQA Guidelines 15303(a), the Project is exempt from environmental
review because it involves the construction of one single family residential
structure. Even though the Project is exempt from CEQA, it has been
reviewed by all City divisions and departments with regard to potential
environmental impacts. Based on the attached conditions of approval, the
Project will not have a significant impact on the environment.
4. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to Chapter 17.82.070 of the Zoning
Code, including guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions,
have been incorporated into the approval of the subject project to ensure
development of the property in accordance with the objectives of Chapter
17.82.
Pursuant to LEMC Section 17.82.070, the Project has been scheduled for
consideration and approval of the Planning Commission. The applicant
shall meet all required setbacks and development standards pursuant to
LEMC Section 17.23 (R-1 Single-Family Residential District). Any revisions
to the Minor Design Review shall be processed in a similar manner as the
original Minor Design Review. All plans submitted for building division
plan check shall conform to the submitted plans as modified by the

PAGE20F3
SECTION 1. The Planning Commission has considered the proposed
Amendments prior to recommending that the City Council approve the changes.
SECTION 2. The Planning Commission finds and determines that an Initial
Study was completed which analyzed the potential environmental impacts of the
proposed Amendments. According to the results of the Initial Study, and based
upon evidence and testimony received during the public hearing on November 7,
2006, it is hereby found and determined that the proposed Amendments will not
have a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, pursuant to Title 14 of the
California Code of Regulations sections 15070 et seq., it was proper to prepare a
Negative Declaration for these Amendments.
SECTION 3. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning law and
the LEMC, the Planning Commission makes the following findings for the
recommendation of approval of Text Amendment No. 2006-02:
1. The proposed text Amendments to the City's Municipal Code will contribute to
the comfort and general welfare of the persons working and/or residing within
the City. The proposed revisions raise the City's minimum on-site landscape
percentage requirements within commercial and industrial zones, and modify
the amount and size requirement of required trees in ratio to the number of
parking spaces. These revisions increase vegetation and will enhance the
overall visual character and quality of the City.
2. The proposed text Amendments will not be injurious to property or
improvements within the City as the proposed revisions and modifications are
an overall beneficial enhancement to the City. The proposed Amendments
apply only to new development.
3. The proposed text Amendments are consistent with the General Plan,
Community Design Element, as serve an important link between the City's
built environment and the natural environment. In addition to providing visual
relief, cleaner air, and serving as a screen or buffer, well-planned and
maintained landscaping serves to increase property value and increase the
aesthetic value to the community.
SECTION 4. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.

PAGE 2 OF 5
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 November 21, 2006.
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 Project's
consistency with the MSHCP prior to recommending that the City Council adopt
Findings of Consistency with the MSHCP.
SECTION 2. That in accordance with State Planning and Zoning laws, the
Lake Elsinore Municipal Code, and the MSHCP, the Planning Commission makes
the following MSHCP Consistency Findings:
1. The Project is a project under the City's MSHCP Implementing Resolution, and
the City must make an MSHCP Consistency finding before approving the
Project.
Pursuant to the City's MSHCP Implementing Resolution, prior to approving
any discretionary entitlement, the City is required to review the project to
ensure consistency with the MSHCP cell criteria and other "Plan Wide
Requirements. "
The Lake Elsinore Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep dealership lies within MSHCP
Criteria Cells #4646 and #4743. Results of the LEAPS and JPR indicate that
the developable footprint for the Project is consistent with the Cell Criteria for
#4646 and #4743.
In addition, the Project was reviewed and found consistent with the following
"Plan Wide Requirements ": Protection of Species Associated with
Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pool Guidelines (MSHCP, ~ 6.1.2 ),
Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines (MSHCP, ~ 6.1.4), Additional Survey
Needs and Procedures (MSHCP ~ 6.3.2), and payment of the MSHCP Local
Development Mitigation Fee (MSHCP Ordinance, ,~ 4).
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION N0.2006-123
PAGE 3 OF 5
2. The Project is subject to the City's LEAP and the County's Joint Project
Review processes.
The Project consists of a Commercial Design Review within the MSHCP Lake
Elsinore Area Plan. Therefore, a LEAP application and JPR were required.
The LEAP application was reviewed by the City. Upon determining that the
Project is consistent with the MSHCP, Staff forwarded the LEAP to the
Regional Conservation Authority (RCA) for its JPR.
Results of RCA's JPR and the City's LEAP reveal that approximately 2.0 acres
of the project encroach into an area designated for Proposed Linkage 8 (San
Jacinto River). This area is steep and unvegetated. The Applicant has
proposed the donation of 3 acres of conserved land within the floodplain of the
San Jacinto River that are low gradient areas and would allow connection to
larger areas of more valuable habitat.
The Project was found to be consistent with the MSHCP Cell Criteria
requirements by both the City and RCA. The Project was also found consistent
.with the other "Plan Wide Requirements" of the MSHCP, as described below.
3. The Project is consistent with the Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pools
Guidelines.
Section 6.1.2 of the MSHCP focuses on protection of riparian/riverine areas
and vernal pool habitat types based upon their value in the conservation of a
number of MSHCP covered species.
The Project site contains two linear drainage areas and three broader areas
which support riparian vegetation, mulefat, and arroweed. Impacts from the
project will be approximately 0.35 acres with the impacted vegetation being
scattered and insufficient to provide functional habitat. The Applicant proposes
to create bioswales on-site that would be three times larger than the 0.35 acres
of impact (i. e, 3:1 mitigation ratio). The bioswales will be vegetated with
riparian scrub species and will function as filters for first flush storm
discharges and other post project drainage, thus improving water quality. As
such, the Project is compliant with Riparian/Riverine Areas and Vernal Pool
Guidelines set forth in Section 6.1.2 of the MSHCP.
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION N0.2006-123
PAGE 4 OF 5
4. The Project is consistent with the Protection of Narrow Endemic Plant Species
Guidelines.
The Project is not located in a Narrow Endemic Plant Species Survey Area as
mapped in Section 6.1.3 of the MSHCP. Therefore the provisions of Section
6.1.3 are not applicable to the Project.
5. The Project is consistent with the Additional Survey Needs and Procedures.
The Project is located within the Burrowing Owl survey area as identified in
Section 6.3.2 Additional Survey Need and Procedures of the MSHCP. Three
surveys were conducted on the entire site. There were no areas on the site
considered as suitable habitat for the burrowing owl, and no protocol surveys
are required. However, the Project will be required to conduct apre-
construction survey 30 days prior to the commencement of grading. The
Project is consistent with Section 6.3.2 of the MSHCP.
6. The Project is consistent with the Urban/Wildlands Interface Guidelines.
The Project is located adjacent to land set aside for conservation by the
Applicant. Further, the site is directly adjacent to the San Jacinto River, which
has been designated as Proposed Linkage 8. Therefore the Urban/Wildlands
Interface Guidelines of MSHCP Section 6.1.4 are applicable to the Project.
The Project will be enclosed by fencing or other barriers to the San Jacinto
River. Surface water discharge will be controlled and treated prior to flowing
into the wildland area. Lighting will be directed away from the River, and all
landscaping and other bioswale plantings will consist of native species. No
additional mitigation measures or conditions of approval are required. The
Project is consistent with Section 6.1.4 of the MSHCP.
7. The Project is consistent with the Vegetation Mapping requirements.
Vegetation Mapping requirements do not apply to the Project However, the
Applicant has mapped the 0.35 acres of scattered riparian vegetation as part of
the submittal to the City and to RCA. No other mapping is required.
8. The Project is consistent with the Fuels Management Guidelines.
Although the Project area is next to an area being donated to the RCA, and
adjacent to the Proposed Linkage 8, this area is not heavily vegetated and
would not be considered a hazard to humans and their property. Therefore, the
~, Fuels Management Guidelines of MSHCP Section 6.4 are not applicable to the
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION N0.2006-123
PAGE 5 OF 5
Project. No additional mitigation measures or conditions of approval are
required.
9. The Project will be conditioned to pay the City's MSHCP Local Development
Mitigation Fee.
As a condition of approval, the Project will be required to pay the City's
MSHCP Local Development Mitigation Fee at the time of issuance of building
permits.
10. The Project is consistent with the MSHCP.
For the foregoing reasons, the Project is consistent with the MSHCP.
SECTION 3. This Resolution shall take effect from and after the date of its
passage and adoption.

Residential) zoning district. The General Plan designation of Medium
Density (MD) is intended for quality single family homes in areas of
generally level topography with available public services and infrastructure
and has been located in areas where services are not immediately available
but can be extended without causing substantial over-extension of facilities.
The R-1 (Single-Family Residential) zoning district is intended to
accommodate low density projects comprised of quality single family
residences developed in an urban environment with available public services
and infrastructure. Approval of the Project will assist in achieving the
development of a well balanced and functional mix of residential, limited
commercial, limited industrial, open space, recreational and institutional
land uses by providing additional affordable housing within R-1 (Single-
Family Residential) zoning district and the City of Lake Elsinore. The
Project contributes to the development and maintenance of a broad range of
housing types for all income groups and age categories.

rear yard setback, sufficient front yard landscaping and safe and sufficient
on-site vehicular circulation. Further, use of the "Spanish-Mediterranean "
architectural style in the Project complements the quality of existing
development and will create a visually pleasing, non-detractive relationship
with existing projects in the area.

to result in any significant adverse environmental impacts.
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines 15303(a), the Project is exempt from
environmental review because it involves the construction of one single
