The Planning Commission has considered Negative Declaration 93-2 for the proposed General Plan Amendment 92-5, prior to making a decision to recommend that the City Council approve the proposed amendment to the 1990 City of Lake Elsinore General Plan. The Planning Commission finds and determines that Negative Declaration 93-2 is adequate under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to analyze the environmental effects of General Plan Amendment 92-5, and recommends City Council approval, based upon the following findings and determinations: a. The project will not degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce fish habitat or wildlife species, cause fish or wildlife population to drop, threaten plant or animal communities, reduce or restrict the range of rare or endangered plant or animal species, or eliminate important cultural resources. The proposed actions will allow uses which in turn will be required to undergo discretionary review and therefore site specific environmental evaluation. b. The project does not have the potential to achieve short-term goals to the disadvantage of long-term environmental goals. c. The project will not have impacts which are individually limited but cumulatively considerable. 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 92-5 have been made as follows: a. The proposed General Plan Amendment would permit mining and reclamation operations as an interim use prior to development and will not alter the allowed uses under the current General Plan Land Use designation for the particular area. Page 2 Resolution No. 93-1 b. Surface mining and reclamation operations will prepare the site for future development of the site. Mininq and reclamation practices are currently permitted adjacent to the site to the south and southwest. c. The proposed General Plan Amendment is compatible with the surrounding land uses. d. This request will not result in any significant adverse impact on the environment because it is only policy action and will not grant development approval. 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 92-5.
