Background
In December, 2010 and January, 2011, the Planning Commission and City Council
approved Tentative Tract Map No.'s 36115 and 36116. The Tract Maps were approved
pursuant to the Subdivision Map Act and the Lake Elsinore Subdivision Ordinance and
Municipal Code.
On March 18, 2014, the Planning Commission approved Residential Design Review 2013-
09 for the construction of 238 single-family dwellings of the Amberleaf product throughout
Planning Areas 25 and 28A. The Amberleaf product is comprised of four different one-story
and two-story floor plans and range in size between 1,646 square feet to 2,542 square feet.
The Amberleaf product consists of four different architectural themes (Italian, Spanish,
Traditional, and Tuscan) that provided a varied, yet cohesive design. All 238 units
incorporate Living Smart features. In addition the Planning Commission adopted a
resolution finding the project exempt from the Western Riverside County Multiple Species
Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP) (Attachment 4).
Proiect Descri tion
The proposed project consists of the replacement of the previously approved "Amberleaf'
building design on 85 of the lots with the new "Summerfield" building design. The proposed
replacement would consist of new pad locations and architectural design. No changes to
Residential Design Review No. 2013-09 Modification #1
December 2, 2014

the number, size, or dimensions of lots are proposed at this time.
Floor Plans
The proposed 85 dwelling unit Summerfield component will feature three different plans
throughout project area which are described as follows:
Plan 1: One-story 1,531 square foot units with three bedrooms, two baths, great room,
dining room, kitchen, laundry, covered patio, and two -car garage.
Plan 2: One-story 1,812 square foot units with three bedrooms, three baths, den, great
room, kitchen, dining room, optional covered patio, and option loft, and two -car garage. As
an option the den can be replaced with an additional bedroom, without increasing the size
of the unit.
Plan 3: Two-story 1,943 square foot units with four bedrooms, three (3.0) baths, great
room, dining room, kitchen, laundry, optional covered patio, and two -car garage.
Architecture and Treatments
The proposed project will offer four architectural styles and treatments for the twelve plans,
including Spanish, Italian, Traditional, and Tuscan. The following describes each of these
architectural styles:
Italian Architectural Style: Includes concrete "S" the roofs, clipped gabled roof, two-tone
color schemes, decorative shutters (on two-story floor plan), stone veneer, and soft arches
at the front entries
Spanish Architectural Style: Includes concrete "S" tile roofs, decorative pipe vents at
front gable ends, plank shutters (on Plans 2 & 3), stucco window trim, and arched entries.
Traditional Style: Includes concrete flat tile roofs, two-tone color scheme, brick veneer,
and decorative shutters (on Plans 2 &3).
Enhanced, four-sided architectural treatments in the form of window surrounds will be
provided for all the proposed residences as a standard feature on lots that have visibility
from right-of-way areas.
Livina Smart Features
The Living Smart concept is defined as being "EnergySmart", "EarthSmart", "WaterSmart",
and "HealthSmart", and is intended to promote health, and conserve energy, water, and
other vital resources. The proposed residences will feature a comprehensive approach to
earth -friendly and energy-saving design. The applicant, which is a certified California Green
Residential Design Review No. 2013-09 Modification #1
December 2, 2014
Page 4 of 5
Builder, will incorporate Living Smart features and improvements into each of the
constructed residences.
Model Home Complex
The applicant is proposing a model home complex for the 'Summerfield' product along
Tenino Court. The complex identifies models for the three (3) plans, including Plans 1 CR
(Italian), 2A (Spanish), and 3BR (Traditional). The complex will include a handicap parking
space as well as on street parking.
Wall and Fence Plan
The applicant has slightly modified the previously approved fence and wall plan. The rear
fencing on lots 275 and 276 have been changed to vinyl fencing from tubular steel. The
modification was made due to the grade differential not providing adequate privacy from
the adjacent public park. The proposed vinyl fence material will match the other
applications of the vinyl fence in the development, therefore retaining the original project's
design consistency. No other modifications to the previously approved fence and wall plan
are proposed at this time.
Analysis
The applicant has proposed acceptable alternatives without the loss of quality to the overall
project design and amenities. Further, the proposed project provides additional floor plans
that will create greater diversity in the product types in the Canyon Hills Specific Plan area.
This diversity is balanced with the continuity of design in the other project areas creating a
cohesive design theme that is carried throughout the Canyon Hills Specific Plan area. The
Community Services, Engineering, and Fire Departments have all reviewed the proposed
project and have no concerns. Staff therefore finds the proposed project consistent with
previous approvals, General Plan, and the Canyon Hills Specific Plan.
Environmental Determination
Environmental analysis and clearance for the proposed Design Review application is
provided by the 2003 Addendum to the 1989 Final Canyon Hills Specific Plan
Environmental Impact Report (EIR). The 2003 Addendum to the EIR (Addendum) was
prepared in accordance with Section 15164 of the CEQA Guidelines and was approved by
the City Council in late 2003. The proposed project is consistent with the Canyon Hills
Specific Plan Amendment No. 2 and therefore, will not conflict with the analysis and
findings of the 2003 Addendum. The 2003 Addendum concluded that all impacts would be
less than significant with implementation of those mitigation measures contained in the
original 1989 Final Canyon Hills Specific Plan EIR and carried forward to the 2003
Addendum. It should also be noted that the project is exempt from the Multiple Species
Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP). Further environmental action is not required pursuant
to CEQA Guidelines Section 15162.

Agreement'), which expressly exempted the Developer from responsibility for
any new development impact fees. The Development Agreement was amended

which extends the project's exemption from MSHCP requirements.
Even though the Project is exempt from the MSHCP, the Developer must comply
With other state and federal laws. Consistent with federal law, the applicant had
prepared a project -specific Habitat Conservation Plan and has a history of
extensive coordination with the wildlife agencies. Where approved for
development, the project site has already been graded, cleared, or developed in
