The Project has a General Plan Land Use designation of Limited Industrial (LI). This
designation provides for industrial parks, warehouses, manufacturing, research and
development, public and quasi-public uses, and similar and compatible uses. The
subject property has the Commercial Manufacturing (C-M) zoning designation. The C-
M zone is compatible with the LI Land Use Designation. The Tentative Parcel Map is
a subdivision of an 8.46-acre site into four (4) parcels and a remainder parcel. The
Tentative Parcel Map is consistent with the designated land use, development and
design standards, and all other appropriate requirements contained in the General
Plan and the Subdivision Map Act.
2. The site of the proposed subdivision of land is physically suitable for the proposed
density of development in accordance with the General Plan.
The Project has a General Plan Land Use designation of Limited Industrial (LI). The
Tentative Parcel Map is a subdivision of an 8.46-acre site into four (4) parcels and a
remainder parcel for the purpose of Financing and Conveyance only. The Tentative
Parcel Map is consistent with the designated land use, development and design
standards, and all other appropriate requirements contained in the General Plan and
the Subdivision Map Act. Any future development for this area is required to conform
to all standards set forth in the applicable Specific Plan as well as the General Plan.
3. The effects that this project is likely to have upon the housing needs of the region, the
public service requirements of its residents, and the available fiscal and environmental
resources have been considered and balanced.
The Project has a General Plan Land Use designation of Limited Industrial (LI). The
Tentative Parcel Map is a subdivision of an 8.46-acre site into four (4) parcels and a
remainder parcel. The Project will not have a direct impact on housing.
4. The design of the proposed division of land or type of improvements is not likely to
cause serious public health problems.
The Tentative Parcel Map has been adequately conditioned by all applicable
departments and agencies and will not result in any significant environmental impacts.
The proposed subdivision, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be
detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare or materially injurious to properties
or improvements in the vicinity.
Section 4: That in accordance with the City of Lake Elsinore’s General Plan
Environmental Impact Report (State Clearinghouse No. 2005121019) (EIR), Public Resources
Code section 21083.3, and CEQA Guidelines section 15183; the Council makes the following
findings regarding the approval of Tentative Parcel Map No. 38614:
1. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the General Plan and an EIR was certified
for the General Plan. The General Plan EIR adopted by the City of Lake Elsinore on
December 13, 2011 (per Resolution No. 2011-070) analyzed potential environmental
impacts.

2. There are no environmental impacts peculiar to the subject property that were not
analyzed in General Plan EIR. The subject site does not contain any features that
would create environmental impacts that would be peculiar to the subject site beyond
what was originally analyzed and evaluated in the General Plan and EIR.
3. There are no significant environmental impacts, including off-site impacts or
cumulative impacts, that were not previously analyzed in General Plan EIR. That EIR
analyzed the environmental impacts associated with the conversion of vacant or
underutilized land to commercial uses. This division of land, without any additional
development approval, does not present any potential environmental impacts that
were not analyzed in the EIR. Moreover, there is insufficient information to conduct
project-level review at this time and any attempt to provide project-level review would
be speculative. Accordingly, the General Plan EIR analysis provides adequate
program level of analysis of potential impacts.
4. No substantial new information that was not known at the time General Plan EIR was
certified has been discovered indicating that a significant impact identified in that EIR
would be more severe than previously determined. No information has been presented
to, or discovered by, the City that indicates the environmental impacts associated with
increased commercial development will be more severe than analyzed in the General
Plan EIR.
5. That the decision regarding the environmental analysis and discussion above reflects
the independent judgment and analysis of the City.
Section 5: Based upon all of the evidence presented, the above findings, and the
conditions of approval imposed upon the Project, the Council hereby approves Tentative Parcel
Map No. 38614.
Section 6: This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption.
Section 7: The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution and enter it into
the book of original Resolutions.
Passed and Adopted at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Lake Elsinore,
California, this 9th day of May 2023.
