The Project complies with the goals and objectives of the General Plan because it will assist
in achieving the development of a well-balanced and functional mix of residential,
commercial, industrial, open space, recreational, and institutional land uses. The Project
will serve to diversify and expand Lake Elsinore’s economic base.
2. The Project complies with the design directives contained in the General Plan and all other
applicable provisions of the LEMC.
The Project is appropriate to the site and surrounding developments and blends in with the
surrounding industrial development. Sufficient setbacks and enhanced onsite landscaping
have been provided thereby creating interest and varying vistas as a person moves along
abutting streets and within the park. The Project will complement the quality of existing
development and will create a visually pleasing, non-detractive relationship between the
proposed development and existing projects through the use of a ‘Contemporary’
architectural design that is similar to existing industrial developments in the vicinity. In
addition, safe and efficient circulation has been achieved onsite.
3. Conditions and safeguards pursuant to Section 17.415.050.G.3 of the LEMC, including
guarantees and evidence of compliance with conditions, have been incorporated into the
