this area since March of 1988, and he is concerned with the
~
PAGE THREE - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - JANUARY 10, 1989
increased traffic problems on Mountain, Lake Street and Robb
Road.
-
Mark Leslie, Lake Terrace resident, advised that he had moved
here for the Country atmosphere, and they were told that there

prevent further development until the overcrowded schools and
other problems are mitigated.
...-.
Robert Cartier, 16960 Lakeshore Drive, representing Elsinore
Ready Mix, advised that he still feels the alluvial fan area
should be preserved until the property has been mined.
Mayor Winkler closed the public hearing at 7:18 p.m.
Community Development Director Miller advised that there is
already an existing County approved tract map for this area
which would allow approximately 90 homes, whether the City
approved the development or not. He further advised that the
proposal of the applicant would continue the pattern set by
the Lake Terrace Homes, and the applicant would be required to
do a portion of the improvements needed on Robb Road.
City Manager Molendyk commented that staff has worked with the
applicant and feels most of the concerns have been mitigated
and works is continuing to resolve more problems. He further
commented on the inherant problems of this area which seven
developers are working to resolve with an assessment district
in the area.
Mayor Winkler advised that this action would be strictly on
the General Plan Amendment and Zone Change, not the
development itself. He further advised that the proposed
changes and annexation would allow the City to impose higher
standards of development and be more in control of the
situation than if it remained County territory. He also
commented on the fees which the City would receive toward
parks and other facilities which would benefit these
developments as well as existing developments.
-
Councilman Buck questioned staff with regard to the traffic
circulation concerns and whether there could be a secondary
entrance toward the back of the development. Community
Development Director Miller advised that due to the
City/County area and other problems it would be difficult at
this point to establish another entrance. Councilman Buck
reiterated the belief of the Mayor and Staff that a higher set
of standards could be enforced if the area was included in the
City limits.
Councilman Washburn commented that it will be easier to deal
locally with the concerns of the residents than it would be at
the County level. He apologized to the residents for any
misunderstanding they had been given by the County, but
further explained the rights of the landowner as well as ERM
Concrete, who maintains a haul road through this area. He
also commented on trees and habitat which would need to be
considered when the tract map is considered.
Councilman Starkey reinforced Councilman Washburn's apology to
the residents. He further inquired of staff how the traffic
circulation would be handled and whether all traffic would be
,
PAGE FOUR - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - JANUARY 10, 1989
required to use Mountain Street through the existing
development.
Councilman Washburn advised that this traffic situation has
been addressed by the Engineer for the project. He suggested
that the residents stay active in this process through the
tentative tract map to insure that problems are resolved for
the best possible project. He further advised that this
~roject would not be a re~uction in lot size or home standards
.1..LUlll \..u~ .L.JdJ\.~ '.1.'~L.'L:d(";~ pL.OU J ~(";1... ...-
Mr. Leslie advised that the residents had checked into future
surrounding developments when they bought and were led to
believe the zoning was for rural 2-1/2 acres parcels. He
further advised that their biggest concern is the impact of
additional traffic on Mountain Street.
Mayor Winkler inquired of Mr. Leslie whether he felt the City
could provide improved control over the development itself
than the County. Mr. Leslie agreed that the City would be
best to regulate this development, but expressed concern that
maybe this project shouldn't be built at all. City Attorney
Harper reiterated that there is an approved tract map with the
County, under which the applicant could start construction
immediately, without City approval.
City Manager Molendyk commented on upcoming street
improvements at Lake Street and Terra Cotta Road which would
help traffic circulation in the area.
Council reemphasized the rights of the property owners to
develop their property within City approved guidelines and
requirements.

33. Zone Code Amendment 88-9 = Brookstone Development.
An appeal of Planning Commission denial of a request to amend
section 17.54.020 of the Lake Elsinore Municipal Code
pertaining to permitted uses in the Commercial-Manufacturing
District to allow engineering offices in that district.
Community Development Director Miller explained the appeal,
and suggested that Council consider Alternative #3 since they
are different from a standard office operation in that they
utilize a number of survey trucks.
The City Clerk reported no written comments or protests.
Mayor Winkler opened the public hearing at 8:04 p.m. asking
those in favor of this appeal to speak. The following people
spoke:
Steve Brown, Brookstone Development, advised that they are in
favor of Alternative #3, however he highlighted the areas of
the staff report he felt contained discrepancies as follow:
Item #1 page #1 - relating to less parking than a
commercial facility. He felt that based on the use, __
they would be providing more parking than the standards
for commercial uses would require.
Item #2 page #2 - relating to this type of use
discouraging industrial use. He felt this type of use
would encourage growth in the community. He also
encouraged Council to review this zone for additional
uses that would benefit the Community.
He also offered to answer any questions from Council.
Fred Crowe, Butterfield Engineering, advised that they would
like approval of this use, because they have run out of space
and are now working out of two buildings. He further advised
that they feel their use would be similar to contractors'
offices which are a use permitted in this zone.
Mayor Winkler asked those in opposition to speak. Hearing no
one, the public hearing was closed at 8:16 p.m.
Councilman Washburn commented that he agrees additional
consideration is needed for use of this zone. He commented
on concerns expressed with this project at the Planning
Commission meeting as follow:
.....
1) Soils Lab different from other types of labs - He
felt civil Engineering Lab uses digitiser, map making
equipment, number crunching and would qualify as a
laboratory.
2) Loss of M-l land - He referred to the Gobar Report in
~
PAGE SEVEN - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - JANUARY 10, 1989
1985 relating to land use, which stated no such
problem exists and we would not loose it at a rate
which would cause problems.
3) Citywide Code Change which would allow arbitrary
construction of office space - This action would only
allow the stated use in the C-M district.
.....
4) Rent Structure drawing from the Downtown Area -
uvera~~ ren~ struc~ure for C-2 uses on Lakeshore
Drive quite high (approximately $1.50 per square
foot) for office use, more appropriate for retail
use. Office spaces are running approximately $.80
per square foot. This facility would run
approximately $.55 to $.60 per square foot.
He further commented that this zone has been structured too
restrictively and is not working, since staff and City
Council hours are being wasted in adding or clarifying uses.
He agreed some uses commented on should be downtown, but the
land is not always available at a reasonable cost. He
commented on steve Brown's concerns with the staff report, and
felt these were questionable as to causing problems in the
area.
Councilman Dominguez expressed concern with allowing this use
when it is not allowed under the current Title 17 for this
zone.

The City Clerk reported no written comments or protests.
Mayor Winkler opened the public hearing at 7:43 p.m. and
asked those in favor of General Plan Amendment 88-1 and
Environmental Impact Report 88-1 to speak. The following
persons spoke.
Mr. Mike McGee, Project Manager for Pardee Construction,
29377 Rancho California Road, Rancho California, introduced
the persons involved in the preparation of the proposal. He
then gave a brief history of Pardee Construction Company and
introduced Ms. Cherie Gossett.
Ms. Cheri Gossett, Project Planner and author of the Specific
Plan document, gave an overview of the entire project which
included actual development surrounding the project.
Mayor Winkler asked if anyone else wished to speak in favor
of the project. Hearing no further comment in favor, Mayor -
Winkler asked those in opposition to speak. The following
persons spoke:
A. Mrs. Sue Royalty, 32224 Cottonwood Canyon Road, Sun City,
addressed the Council and presented them with a petition
in regard to Cottonwood Hills project and stated the
concerns persons who signed the petition are as follows:
1. Dangerous health hazard due to dust caused from
increased traffic. The residents would not be able
to have quiet enjoyment of the outside of their homes
without breathing vast amounts of dust.
2. Inexperienced drivers losing control of vehicles on
very slick muddy surfaces of Cottonwood when it
rains.
3. All our children walk on Cottonwood twice a day going
to and from the school bus at the corner of
Cottonwood and Bundy Canyon Road.
4. Drivers losing control of their vehicles due to
inexperience of driving on a hot-holed, washboard
dirt road.
-
5. Parts of the road are too narrow for two cars to pass
at the same time. We must have speed limit and
caution signs posted on the road.
6. Residents ride their horses on the road. Caution
signs must be posted.
Mrs. Royalty concluded her comments by stating that she
would personally like to see Cottonwood Canyon Road paved
through.
PAGE FIVE - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - FEBRUARY 14, 1989
B. Mr. Michael S. Geer, 32150 Navajo springs Road, stated
his concerns are as follows:
1. Buffer zone and the integrity of the buffer zone as
it will be on private property and in private
property control. The trees involved in the Buffer
zone are in jeopardy and this area should be treated
as open space.
2. The condition of Lost Road, between the Cottonwood
project to Lemon Street for the most direct route to
the High School. Request a traffic count and treat
this area for the impact this project will have upon
it.
C. Mrs. Lynn Volmer, P. O. Box 5286, Canyon Lake, stated
that she feels that the density of this project is too
high, and more could have been done to lower the density.
D. Mr. Grant Olewiler, representing Canyon Lake Property
Owners Association expressed the following:
Page 5-16 of the Specific Plan, dated December 5,
1988 it states "the existing sewer ponds on site will
not be required after the trunk sewer is installed.
They may be relocated on an interim basis and
ultimately be removed during the course of
development"; and Page 9-16 of Specific Plan, EIR
dated December 5, 1988, under Phase I of Public
Facilities it states "Construct new trunk sewer
connecting Railroad Canyon development to existing
trunk sewer west of I-l5", "At occupancy of first
dwelling unit in phase I, unless an interim
connection is provided"; yet the Elsinore Valley
Municipal Water District EIR, Draft Supplemental for
Waste Water at Railroad Canyon, which notes that an
excessive amount of effluent is seasonally produced
by this plan and presently disposed eusing
evaporation ponds on this project site. Mr.
Olewilder then asked where the excessive amount of
effluent would be disposed of with the building of
this project. He stated that the amount of effluent
and proposed future plans would merit a supplemental
sewer facility or again as the reports states, would
be carried to the Regional Wastewater Treatment
Plant. He questioned who was to pay for the
improvements necessary to meet the projects needs.
He further asked if the Wastewater situation will be
addressed in a new EIR. He also stated that should
it be necessary to close Railroad Canyon Road for
construction of facilities, then there would have to
be and E.I.R. to address this issue. Mr. Olewiler
concluded by stressing concern for the existing
residents and businesses in the area should Railroad
Canyon Road be closed.
E. Ms. Shelia Costa, 25710 Holland Road, Menifee Valley,
stated her concern is in regard to density, pollution,
traffic. She stated that she felt that the City showed a
lack of concern for the eastern area of the project. She
also stated that she felt that the EIR did not address her
area.
PAGE SIX - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - FEBRUARY 14, 1989
F. DeAnn Fiscus, 31765 Murrieta Road, Menifee Valley,
expressed concern over the project. She stated that she
has horses and uses the area for walking and feels that
the area has grown a great deal and that the project
would only lend to more problems if Holland Road were
used as a route to Murrieta Road. She stated that the ~
area cannot handle the traffic currently on it and the
proposed project would create a greater burden. She
asked that Council reconsider the traffic circulation and
the density of the project.
G. Mr. Steve Uraine, 32255 Navajo Springs Road, commented as
follows:
1. Commercial Centers in the project an surrounded by
hills and will create a noise problem. He expressed a
desire to see the Commercial area set off to the side
of the project.
2. Lost Road is paved up to 300 feet from Navajo Springs
Road and then further down on Lost Road it is pavement
again. He suggested that the development be assessed
for this unpaved portion and the monies set aside for
the County to do the paving improvements.
3. If Railroad Canyon Road is closed for improvements
and traffic for the construction of the project and
Canyon Lake traffic is diverted, where will the cars
be routed? He stated that during the closure of
Railroad Canyon Road, due to ice, the cars were
routed on Lost Road and the dust problem was
enormous to all the residents due to the traffic.
...
4. The buffer zone has been addressed on the East side
has been treated as a sensitive area. On the
southerly side the buffer zone has not been addressed
as a sensitive area. Mr.Uraine stated that this
area needs more attention and suggested more of a
buffer in the southerly side.
H. Mrs. Cathleen Evans, 25190 Craig Avenue, Menifee
commented as follows:
General Comments:
1. According to the 'currently adopted forecasts of the
perris Valley LUPA, the five specific plans approved
for the area contain more units than the entire
projected housing needs for Perris Valley between
1985 and the year 2000. The eastern 1270 acres of
the proposed project lies within this area. Why is
another urban development needed in this area?
2.
Per the EIR, the County's Open Space and Conservation
Map would tentatively limit development to one
dwelling unit per ten acres. Also, the proposed Sun
City/Menifee Valley Community, Plan would permit only
1 and 1/2 acre to 10 acre lots on the site. Why is the
density so high? Why was the density increased from
the first EIR by approximately 600 units?
...
P!GE SEVEN - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - FEBRUARY 14, 1989
3. SCAG projects that the population in the Inland
Empire will increase faster than the available jobs.
The employment base is not in sync with the
population, and this condition will increase at an
increasing rate. It is currently estimated that 3
out of 4 workers commute out of Riverside County; by
the year 2010, 5 out of 6 workers will commute.
Between 1985 and 1986, congestion increased at the
71-Corona interchange from two hours in the morning
to three hours; vehicles per day have increased from
90,000 to 145,000 (1982-1986) and are projected to
increase to 250,000 by 2010. The latter is a
gridlock condition. Would not any city in the County
of Riverside serve its citizens better by encouraging
the development of a better commercial and
industrial base? Why encourage urban development?
specific Comments:
4. The proposed lot sizes in areas designated as
"sensitive interface between land uses" are too high.
There should be a buffer zone of larger size lots -
2 acre minimum - in planning areas 9, 10, 14, 30, 31
and 33. An alternative to large size lots could be
extensive open space buffer zones along the
interfaces. The fifty foot set-back discussed in the
EIR is totally inadequate to protect the rural nature
of adjacent homeowners.
5. The EIR states that the preservation of over 900
acres of undisturbed natural open space would
compensate for many of the project-related impacts to
the biological community. The city is to develop
plans to ensure the preservation of habitat values
and the Cottonwood Hills Lighting and Open Space
Maintenance District will be the responsible agency.
It is necessary that this plan be implemented before
construction begins on the site. The developer
should be required to provide funds for the
development of the open space plan prior to any
activity occurring on the site. This is the only
way to ensure that damage to the open space areas is
minimized by construction crews, residents, and
non-residents with access to the site. The district
must be formed before final map approvals.
6. The EIR states that a signal will be necessary at
Holland and Murrieta Roads because the number of
daily trips will increase from 400 to 10,200 when
full build-out occurs for this project and other
projects in the area. This is an offset intersection
on a blind curve with a huge rock on one corner. How
will signalization be implemented at this corner? An
if it is not, the intersection will. be a death trap.
Mrs. Evans concluded by stating that most of the
residents of this area are concerned with the amount of
traffic that will come out of Holland Road onto Murrieta
Road and thanked Council for their consideration.
I. Mr. Dave Krewson, 28665 Tulita Lane, Menifee Valley,
stated his concerns as follows:
PAGE EIGHT - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - FEBRUARY 14, 1989
1.
Page 27, paragraph D states: "The project
incorporates several measures which promote the
-conservation of resources in balance of ..land uses in
large areas of open space". However, these measures
do not reduce these impacts below a level of
significance. This project would contribute
substantially to the adverse conditions. These
cumulative impacts are considered significant.
-
a. Loss of biologically significant habitat.
b. Deterioration of the visual quality of the area.
c. Poor air quality.
d. Traffic congestion.
2. Page 97, last sentence states: "The schools in
both the Elementary and High School Districts are
overcrowded, however plans have been approved for
construction of new facilities which will relieve the
burden on the existing facilities." This is in regard
to the perris Union High School District and the
Menifee Elementary School District. In the Fall,
Chester W. Morrison Elementary School will be opened
and that will relieve approximately 400 children from
the currently overcrowded condition at the existing
school. However, It still leaves the existing school
overcrowded by some 200 children; this does not
include the children in the proposed project.
3. Page 147, last sentence states: "However, these
measures would not alter the overall transition of
natural or rural areas to urban areas. A regionally -
significant problem." What we ask is that an
overall reduction in density be made to this plan.
Mayor Winkler asked if there was anyone else wishing to speak
in opposition. Receiving no response, Mayor Winkler closed
the public hearing at 8:31 p.m.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING RECESSED AT 8:31 P.M.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING RECONVENED AT 8:43 P.M.
Councilman Buck asked if it were possible to ask the
applicant to pave Lost Road? It appears from the discussion
this evening that there is major concern regarding this road.
Community Development Director Miller stated that the current
traffic study projects about 500 trips a day from the
development along that road. This road is very steep and
winding and would require significant realignment and a study
has been done to look at the potential of improving Lost Road
and the cost would be approximately seven million dollars.
He further stated that to pave it in two lane at the existing
alignment would cost in excess of a million dollars. That is
a significant amount to request in consideration of
approximately 500 trips a day from that development.
Mr. Miller further stated that one of the speakers expressed
concern in regard to traffic to the high school. While at
this time it is a direct route it should be considered that
the new High School to be built off I-15 will be taking the
students from this area and will not create a problem for a
route to Elsinore High School.
-
Mayor Winkler questioned buffer lots on the eastern edge and
the southern edge.
PAGE NINE - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - FEBRUARY 14, 1989
-
Mr. Miller responded by stating that shown in the plan as SF1,
is a very low density development requiring minimum half acre
lot size that is consistent with the zoning on the adjacent
properties within the County which has RR zoning, which allows
a minimum half acre. Some of the properties immediately
adjacent are currently subdivided into larger parcels, but just
to the east of the project, before Murrieta Road, is an area of
several sections that are divided into acre and half acre lots.
Staff felt that SFl did provide lots that were consistent with
the zoning that the County had that would permit half acre
lots. The area along the eastern boundary does have half acre
lots. He further stated that along the southern edge in the
area of Cottonwood Canyon Road, there is an existing
subdivision of 9,000 square foot lots in that area. Therefore
it was felt that the SF2 in that area was consistent with the
adjacent properties. To the south along Lost Road, the current
development is subdivided into two to three acre parcels, while
this is true, looking at the County zoning for this area is Rl
which would permit 7,200 square foot lots. He stated that the
plan does provide for a buffer. To the west of Lost Road there
is significant open space areas.
Councilman Washburn expressed concern regarding the
cottonwood Specific Plan. The specific Plan, once adopted,
becomes the General Plan for that area. The City's General
Plan will have no impact on this area. The areas of Law
Enforcement and potential ongoing maintenance with the open
space are just some of the major concerns. Councilman
Washburn asked for a continuance of this item for further
consideration by Council. Councilman Washburn asked Mr.
Miller if there was an updated traffic report on Holland
Road?
-
Mr. Miller stated that Holland Road is designated as an
arterial road in the county's Master Plan. The current
intersection at Holland and Murrieta Road is a problem.
The County has a road improvement fee of several million
dollars to spread among various projects throughout the
County, and while we recognize that this is a current
physical problem, the traffic study does make reference to
the fact that the future volume at that intersection will be
significantly greater in the future. Those are arterial
streets. Staff feels that the County has the ability to
mitigate this situation.
Councilman Washburn questioned Condition No. 19 and
questioned the Law Enforcement issue. He stated that he felt
that the City should not have to provide monies from the
General Fund to cover the entire Law Enforcement cost.
He suggested that a Mello-Roose District be addressed in this
area. He also questioned the isolated oak tree removal
mentioned in the EIR, What will go and what will stay?
Mr. Bolland stated that the trees will be addressed at
grading permit stage. This will be handled at each phase as
the project develops. Staff will work with the developer to
save the oaks that can be saved through alterations to the
project. Those oaks that will have to be removed will have a
replacement of a 10 to 1 ratio.
Councilman Washburn questioned Condition No. 24, and what
portion does this condition address.
Mr. Bolland stated that as the various parks are to be
addressed by conceptual plans done during the related
development phase. The neighborhood parks would be
"turn-key" facilities, which are put in by the developer, and
the Community Park is envisioned as providing for City
participation which would be negotiated in a Development
Agreement to be approved by the Council prior to the first
phase tentative maps.
PAGE TEN - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - FEBRUARY 14, 1989
Councilman Washburn Questioned the City Attorney opinion
regarding the Specific Plan.
City Attorney Harper stated that a Specific Plan is another
way of doing zoning. It functions as the binding zoning
document for that area. A Specific Plan is subject to future
potential change, hence the developers concern for the
execution of a Developers Agreement. If the Council should
decide at some future date that some areas of the Specific
Plan were not going to work it is subject to amendment. A
Development Agreement will freeze the zoning and many of the
issues of concern are addressed in that document as opposed
to the overall zoning document.
...
Councilman Washburn questioned the open space dedicated to
the city and wanted to know if it would be in phases or all
at one time and the maintenance of this area.
Mr. Bolland stated that in the project there are some private
open spaces proposed as well as areas to be dedicated to the
City. It will be done in phases. The maintenance is proposed
to be done in an assessment district spread over the entire
project.
Councilman Washburn questioned Police Service
Mr. McGee stated that the fiscal analysis stated that police
protection had adequate revenues generated to address this
issue. Mello-Roose is expensive and therefore Pardee has
avoided the use of this.
Mr. Lavander addressed the question of public service costs
regarding residents paying for services. The Capital
Improvements are now paid for by the developer and the other
services are covered in assessment districts. This allows
the property tax dollar to pay for the pUblic services such __
as police protection, fire protection, park maintenance,
street maintenance and administrative overhead. For police
service a ratio to 1.5 officers per thousand population was
discussed, but the present study is based upon a 1.0 ratio,
which is an improvement over existing levels of service.
Mayor Winkler expressed concern regarding police and other
services.
Councilman Washburn questioned Riverside County Southwest
Regional Plan and asked if staff received input in regard to
the direction of their plans?
Mr. Bolland stated that the City had not received any
documentation in regard to the Menifee/Sun City area Master
Planning. The Southwest Regional Plan addresses the
Wildomar/Rancho California area. That boundary only extends
up to the lower Lost Road area and does not come over into
the project area.

(2) in an M-1 Zone, totaling 6.9 acres, located on the south
side of Collier Avenue between Third and Crane Streets.
community Development Director Miller gave an overview of the
project and stated that this item has been before Council before
and Riverside County Flood Control District had expressed some
concerns, subsequently the applicant's Engineer has reviewed the
previous work with Riverside County Flood Control District and
they have concurred with the conditions that we had originally
recommended to city Council. Which would allow the two lots on
the western side along Crane Street to be developed prior to the
construction of the Third Street Channel, which is proposed as
part of the outflow channel improvements.
The Deputy city Clerk reported no written comments or
protests.
Mayor Winkler opened the public hearing at 9:30 p.m. asking
those in favor of the project to speak. The following person
spoke:
Dennis Spahr, President of Dura Construction Company, 21351
Walnut Street Lake Elsinore stated that the company has been
in contact with Riverside County Flood Control District and
that the representatives of the Flood Control District have
reviewed the project site. Dura Construction Company
concurs with staff and would ask for approval based upon the
listed conditions.
Mayor Winkler asked those in opposition to speak. Hearing no
one, the public hearing was closed at 9:31 p.m.

along this side. The County zoning would allow SUbdivision
of 1/2 acre lots.
Councilman Washburn stated that he felt that this is the time
for Council to ask for a Mello-Roos to support police and
fire as well as the library. He questioned the concern of
Pardee Construction Company in forming a Mello-Roos.
.....
Mr. Miller stated that Pardee Construction asked for a
continuance so that Pardee's group would have the opportunity
to address the Mello-Roos issue and parks with the Council.
Mayor Winkler posed the possibility of insuring more police
protection for the area if they are picking up the costs.
He questioned if there was a legal way of implementing that
possibility?
Mr. Harper cautioned Council regarding input from the
Developer or anyone else outside the public arena. Concerns
should be addressed to staff who will then deal with the
developer. Mr. Harper again reminded Council that this is a
closed public hearing. Your concerns should be stated
publicly or to staff to resolve.
Councilman Starkey stated that his question was answered by
Condition # 29 regarding the fire station. He further stated
that in reading this it is his understanding that a new
firestation will be built within the next two years.
Councilman Washburn reminded those present that he is aware
that in all areas there are trade offs. He stated that if
there is a problem with Railroad Canyon Road and turn key
parks regarding their development then he further has a
problem with granting extra density.

Specific Plan and that the plan should stand as written.
councilman Washburn questioned Condition No. 19 and asked for
clairification, in addition to information on Libarary
Services. Mr. Bolland explained the fire and library service
levels and proposed project mitigation. He explained that
the Library impact fees are expected to be negotiated at the
Tentative Map stage.
Councilman Washburn asked that Condition No. 16 be clarified.
Mr. Bolland stated that prior to the final phase the road
must be completed.
Councilman Buck stated concern over high density and
sub-standards lots. He asked if, at the Tentative Map stage,
development of the open space can be addressed. Mr. Bolland
stated that the Specific Plan is consistant with the General
Plan in this area.
city Attorney Harper stated that the specific Plan is a
zoning Document. The Specific Plan can be amended the same
way as a Zoning Document can be amended. If Council feels at

expected to be funded by three major projects in the area as
part of their conditions of approval. One of the projects
has dedicated land for the fire station.
City Manager Molendyk stated that the City's responsibility
will be maintenance and operation costs in the next few years
and will be addressed in the city budget. The level of
service will be determined by the city.
Councilman Washburn expressed concern in regard to Police
Service levels. He requested the developer to address this
concern.
Mr. Mike McGee of Pardee Construction stated their fiscal
analysis assumed a level of service fifteen percent (15%)
higher than the current level, including the two new
officers that the City currently has. This is comparable to
the level of services in suburban areas such as Orange and
San Diego Counties which is where the potential buyers are
coming from.
Mayor Winkler questioned if the level of service would be
less.
,......
City Manager Molendyk stated the Administrative Services
Director with their Financial Consultant reviewed this issue
and staff feels comfortable with the level of service
proposed by the project.
Councilman Washburn stated that in the Fiscal Impact Report
fire services is a deficit. He further stated that the
services are to pay for themselves and he cannot understand
why a Mello Roos is not acceptable. He stated that he does
not feel the level of service is adequate and that it should
be increased.
City Manager Molendyke explained that Mello Roos is only good
for a period of time. He invited Administrative services
Director Wood to address this.
PAGE FOUR - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - MARCH 14, 1989
Councilman Washburn stated that if it were not for the
improvements being done on Railroad Canyon Road he would not
concur with the density.
Mayor Winkler thanked staff for all their assistance in

--
substantial contribution to the cumulative impacts of
area-wide urban development which may be partially
mitigated but are anticipated to remain significant upon
development of the site as allowed under the General
Plan. These impacts are found to be acceptable due to
benefits derived by development under the General Plan,
specifically the provision of quality housing
opportunities by the city, the anticipated increase in
local government revenues generated by project residents
and the provision of significant improvements to
Railroad Canyon Road, all of which are expected to
support local commercial and industrial development
efforts and generate measurable benefits to the local
economy and fiscal integrity of City government. The
foregoing overriding considerations provide the
rationale for a decision to approve this request.

Impact Report 88-1 = Pardee Construction Company.
A request to approve a Specific Plan for development of 4,275
~ dwelling units on 1,958.7 gross acres located on Railroad
Canyon, cottonwood, and Holland Roads, one-half mile south of
Canyon Lake in a presently unincorporated area adjacent to
the City boundary.

CERTIFY ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT 88-1, APPROVE FIRST READING OF
ORDINANCE NO. 854 AND APPROVE SPECIFIC PLAN 88-1 (COTTONWOOD HILLS
- PARDEE CONSTRUCTION COMPANY) BASED UPON THE FINDINGS AND
CONDITIONS, DELETING CONDITION NO. 28, AMENDING CONDITION NO. 24
AND 27 AS FOLLOWS:
Findinqs:
-
1. The Specific Plan is anticipated to result in several
significant adverse environmental impacts which are
described in the project Environmental Impact Report. For
each significant impact, measures are imposed by the Plan
or its conditions of approval which eliminate or
substantially lessen their effect. A number of
significant impacts are unavoidable and a statement of
overriding considerations is recommended to address these
(see Finding #2). Specific findings for each significant
impact are as listed in Exhibit A (attached). A
Mitigation Monitoring Program is hereby adopted as Exhibit
B (attached). A list of persons and agencies commenting
and further responses to comments are hereby adopted as
part of the Final E.I.R. (Exhibit "C").
-
2. Based upon project documents and evidence in the public
record, the significant environmental effects of this
project associated with the loss of on-site biological
habitat, traffic impacts on area roads, degradation of
local air quality and a substantial contribution to
cumulative impacts of area-wide urban development,
although partially mitigated or reduced by the project,
remain significant and are unavoidable based upon
rejection of project alternatives or additional mitigation
measures necessary to reduce these impacts to less than
significant levels. These impacts are found to be
acceptable due to benefits derived by the project,
specifically the provision of quality housing
opportunities by the City, the anticipated increase in
local government revenues generated by project residents,
and the provision of significant improvements to Railroad
Canyon Road all of which are expected to support local
commercial and industrial development efforts and generate
measurable benefits to the local economy and fiscal
integrity of City government. The foregoing overriding
considerations provide the rationale for a decision to
approve this project.

VOTE TO CERTIFY ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT 88-1, ADOPT
RESOLUTION NO. 89-6, AND APPROVE ANNEXATION NO. 44 WITH THE
FOLLOWING FINDINGS:
-
Findinqs:
1. This request is anticipated to result in several
significant adverse environmental impacts associated with
the development of the site as allowed under the General
Plan. These impacts are described in the Cottonwood
Hills Environmental Impact Report for the proposed
Specific Plan. Exhibit II (attached) is a summary of
impacts from the Environmental Impact Report. For each
significant impact, measures are imposed to eliminate or
substantially lessen their effect. A number of these
significant impacts are unavoidable and a statement of
overriding consideration is recommended as Finding #2.
Specific findings on each significant impact are as
listed in Table 1 (attached).
r--
2 '. This request will result in significant environmental
impacts associated with loss of habitat, traffic
circulation, degradation of air quality and a
substantial contribution to the cumulative impacts of
area-wide urban development which may be partially
mitigated but are anticipated to remain significant upon
development of the site as allowed under the General
Plan. These impacts are therefore found to be acceptable
due to benefits derived by development under the General
Plan, specifically the provisions of quality housing
opportunities by the City, the anticipated increase in
local government revenues generated by project residents
and the provision of significant improvements to Railroad
Canyon Road, all of which are expected to support local
commercial and industrial development efforts and
generate measurable benefits to the local economy and
fiscal integrity of City Government. The foregoing
overriding considerations provide the rationale for a
decision to approve this request.
3. The project would be provided the necessary public
facilities and services in a phased manner as needed, as
detailed in the Annexation Report, Fiscal Analysis,
Specific Plan and by its Conditions of Approval.

with the level of maintenance and the quality of this project
speaks of high standards and that the quality of the
maintenance program would match the standards.

Councilman Starkey commented on safety factors in regard to
aluminum versus wood carports. He stated that he has the
same concern with maintenance for wood fences.
City Planner Thornhill stated that the strict landscaping
standards will also screen the carports from view from
Casino Drive. He further stated that the wood carports have
a higher quality of appearance.
Councilman Buck stated that he also liked aluminum carports
because they do retain a better appearance after a number of
years.

Councilman Washburn questioned the lack of continuation of
landscaping around all of the buildings. He stated that he
would like to see landscaping continued around the east side
of building one and west side of building six. He further
stated that he agreed with Councilman Buck in regard to .J
corridor landscaping and stated that the slant of the land in
that area does hid some of the parking from view of the
street.
Councilman Starkey asked if some of the parking spaces shown
on the plan could be converted into planter areas? Mr.
Thornhill stated that due to our parking requirements that
all of the planned parking in this project is required and
none can be given over to landscaping.
Mr. Molendyk reminded Council that from their study session,
it was discussed that larger users would be able to meet the
landscaping and parking requirements set by Council. It will
have to be Council policy not to allow smaller industrial
parks and encourage larger industrial users in order to
achieve the look Council is suggesting. Mr. Molendyk
encouraged Council to consider this policy.

Mayor Winkler asked i;f ,Council cduld require, more
landscaping than the'lO' minimum.
The applicant was then invited to address Council.
Mr. Konrad Rieger, Architect, Building Concepts, 17982 Sky
Park Circle, Irvine, stated that in order to meet the
requiraments of the City for loading and parking for the
number of buildings and offices in the project that the
required landscaping was slightly above minimum.
Councilman Washburn questioned the retaining wall and the
slope of the land in regard to the landscaping on this
project. Mr. Rieger stated that this was set at the bottom
of the slope.
Mayor Winkler emphasized that the standards displayed are
minimums and that Council ,is looking for something above the

12. Award of Contract ~ Weed Abatement Contractor ~ Greg Smith.
Mayor Winkler requested clarification as to why the second
lowest bidder was being recommended. Chief Building
Official Shear advised that the requested references had not
been supplied and thus it was difficult to determine the
background of the lowest bidder. Mayor Winkler inquired
into the validity of this requirement. City Attorney Harper
advised that this type of reference request was not uncommon
to municipal projects, and that it provides an objective
position from which to compare the applicants..
Ed Stewart, representing Stewart Ranches, advised that they
had been the lowest bidder at the time of bid opening,
however they were informed that they had not met the
requirements. He detailed the experience of his company
including work previously done for the City and the Water
District. He expressed concern with the new policy
requiring the above mentioned references, in that only
people who had done work would be able to do work, creating
a monopoly.
Councilman Washburn inquired of the City Attorney, if in
fact this requirement would create a monopoly. City Attorney
Harper advised that this did not create a monopo)y, but
protected the City, by not allowing companies with unknown
background to gain their experience on this City. He also
reiterated to Council that it would be their prerogative to
waive this requirement and accept the low bid.
Councilman Starkey inquired if in fact this was the first
yeai for the requirement in question. Chief Building
Official Shear confirmed that it is the first year.
Councilman Dominguez inquired whether this requirement was
clearly worded in the bid request, and whether it stated
references for work on Weed Abatement Projects. Chief
Building Official Shear advised that it did not state "Weed
Abatement Projects".
...
~
Councilman- Starkey question cost difference between the bids.
Chief Building Official Shear advised that it ranged between
$1 and $5 difference per lot. City Attorney Harper reminded
PAGE SEVEN - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - MAY 9, 1989
Council that these costs would only be passed on to those
persons who do not clear their own weeds.
Mayor Winkler commented that this would not ultimately
effect the general fund, however he inquired into the
penalty clause of the contract and its enforceability.
City Attorney Harper advised that while the application could
be clearer, it is still enforceable. He suggested that if
the Council would so desire, they could request supplemental
material and leave review and the final decision up to staff
to meet deadlines.
Greg Smith, the second lowest bidder, detailed his prior
experience and background. He cautioned Council that $2 per
lot was not a big variable, but quality and timeliness of
work were important points to consider.
Councilman Washburn stressed the importance of awarding the
contract tonight to alleviate fire danger liabilities. He
commented that while both contractors are local and he knows
both of them, he felt the requirements should be strictly
adhered to and suggested that future specifications include
more specific language.

Councilman Buck inquired whether the recent Irvin Palmer
project had been required to pay this fee. Senior Civil
Engineer O'Donnell advised that this fee had been waived by
Council in that case, in that the Palmer project was considered
to be a remodel rather than a new project.
Mayor Winkler commented that new projects should have more
impact on this matter than upgrades of existing projects.
Councilman Buck agreed that new developments should be .
required to pay the fees, however, he did not feel this was
the appropriate time to assess the fees.
Councilman Starkey inquired why fees were waived for the
original project. Senior Civil Engineer O'Donnell advised
that they were not required at the time of the original
project. Councilman Starkey felt that under the
circumstances, the fees would be after the fact.
--
Councilman Washburn inquired what this cost represents and
since the project is complete, when would payment be due.
Mr. O'Donnell advised that this cost represents one-half of
the cost of the median, and would be due following Council
approval.

being required to pay these fees, he did not feel the State
Park would be paying their half of the median, and the
median they are funding half of would never be built.

the median were to be built would he be willing to pay the
fees at a later date. Mr. Brown advised that they would be

BUSINESS/DISCUSSION ITEMS
51. Aooeal of Planninq Commission Decision ~ Keith ~ Linda Clarke.
An appeal of Planning Commission denial for a 3,203 square
foot single-family home and detached 800 square. foot, two-story
garage/storage area, located at 16840 Bell Street.
Keith Clarke, applicant, 107 N. Lowell, explained and showed
elevations of their proposed home. He advised that it had been
denied by the Planning Commission based on the possibility of
future code violations, through the development of the garage
upstairs unit potentially being built out, without permits. He
detailed other types of buildings which could be similarly
construed, but receive approvals daily, such as warehouses with
office space and interior remodeling in any single family home.
He also advised that as the Chief Building Official for the
City of Corona, he is not in the habit of violating building codes
and regulations.
City Planner Thornhill further detailed the concerns expressed by
the Planning Commission and clarified that originally staff had
recommended approval of Mr. Clarke's home.
Councilman Buck questioned the size of the proposed garage
structure, the lot line adjustments required and the types of
problems the applicant would encounter when he proceeds with
construction at a later date. City Planner Thornhill advised
that the lot line adjustment is in the works and clarified
that the future requirements to complete the building would be to
attach the garage structure to the main one, possibly with a
breezeway. The applicant advised that this is their intent at a
1 ater date.

Mr. Clarke reassured Council that this second story portion of
the garage will remain a storage area until they pull permits and
complete the area. Councilman Buck felt it would be unfair to
assume that Mr. Clarke would allow this to become a code
violation and supported the applicant's request to build as
proposed.
Councilman Starkey concurred with Councilman Buck that the
applicant should be allowed to build his home and commented on
the ability of any homeowner to alter their home on the inside
with no outside indication for the City to pursue for code
enforcement purposes.

34. Zone Code Amendment 88-10 ~ City of Lake Elsinore.
Request to amend the Zoning Code to amend standards relating to
fences, walls, and landscaping in residential districts; allow
for keeping of farm animals; provide special standards for
hillside development; make various technical corrections; change
minimum lot sizes and permitted densities and setbacks in the R-3
District (High Density Residential); and change Jighting,
landscaping and landscape setback and outside storage
requirements in non-residential districts, which would apply
City-wide. Ordinance No. 853.
City Planner Thornhill gave a brief overview of the proposed
Ordinance. He explained that this item had been before Council on
February 14, 1989 and been continued for further study; following
the Study Session on the Amendment, it was being brought back at
request of Councilman Buck. He advised that the proposed changes,
with exception of a recommended change to the R-3 Open Space
requirements, are the same as those previously proposed at the
February meeting.
The City Clerk reported no written comments or protests.

size for 14,520 minimum square feet to 8,400 square foot lot
sizes. He advised that this would allow the construction of
four-plexes in the subdivision situation allowing up to eight
units on a 14,500 square foot piece of property.

with the recommended change. City Planner Thornhill confirmed that ~
he had discussed the changes with Councilman Buck earlier and

AMENDMENT 88-10 AND ADOPT ORDINANCE NO. 853 TO INCLUDE COUNCILMAN
BUCK'S COMMENTS ON CHANGING 14,520 SQUARE FEET TO 8,400 SQUARE FEET.
PAGE SEVEN - ~ITY COUNCIL MINUTES - JUNE 13, 1989
Councilman Washburn questioned the proposed change on Page 2 of
27, relating to Section 17.14.130.D.2 which reads "When there is
an existing fence, new fencing requirements may be waived"; he
suggested that verbiage to require that the fence have a good
appearance and be of good quality for waiver of the requirement.
He requested that inclusion of language such as ".....existing
well-maintained fence.....", so it will not become an issue.
-
-
Councilman Washburn also inquired in reference to non-residential
development standards on Page 11 of 27, Item A - Municipal Code
Section 17.66.100 (A) which reads "Where any parking area or
driveway abuts a street there shall be a minimum setback of
fifteen feet and an average of twenty feet from the public
right-of-way which shall be fully landscaped and irrigated unless
a greater setback is required by any other provision of this
Title."; he questioned whether that condition would need to be
altered in the case of a very steep slope which could prohibit
the interpretation of that setback. City Planner Thornhill
advised that the 20' is usually a 1 inear measurement, but it is a
two dimensional measurement in this case. He further advised that
he did not see it as a problem, in that many times with a steeper
slope you would have more landscaped area to work with.
Mayor Winkler addressed concern on page 2 of 27, suggested that
the use of words "may be waived", leaves fleXibility, however
emphasis could be included with wording such as "may be waived
as long as the eXisting fence enhances Community standards".
City Planner Thornhill suggested wording of "...unless the
existing fencing is in suitable or adequate condition". He also
suggested the addition of "at the discretion of the Community
Development Director or his designee". City Attorney Harper
advised that the verbiage "well-maintained" is suitable.
Councilman Washburn requested inclusion of "well-maintained"
in the pending motion.
THE MAKER OF THE MOTION AND THE SECOND ACCEPTED AMENDMENT OF THE
MOTION TO INCLUDE "... WELL-MAINTAINED FENCE..."
City Planner Thornhill reminded Council that there was an
additional recommendation not previously considered relative to
the common open spaces in the R-3 district, which would eliminate
the requirement for common open space in the case where there were
less than five units in a R-3 residential project. He suggested
the addition of this wording be included in the motion.
THE MAKER OF THE MOTION AND THE SECOND CONCURRED WITH THE ADDITION
OF WORDING THAT WOULD ELIMINATE THE REQUIREMENTS FOR COMMON OPEN
SPACE IN THE CASE WHERE THERE ARE LESS THAN FIVE UNITS IN A R-3
RESIDENTIAL PROJECT.
-
Councilman Buck requested that some flexibility in the use of
Wrought Iron vs. Masonry Walls along street (Page 9 of 27). City
Planner Thornhill advised that he would have no problem with
wrought iron being used for a portion of the fences. After
discussion, it was suggested that the wording as follows be used:
"any combination of wrought iron or other materials could be
utilized". City Attorney Harper advised this would be permissible,
under a similar section on page 4 of 27.

1 WITH BUCK CASTING THE DISSENTING VOTE TO APPROVE STAFF

89-3 RELATING TO COMMON OPEN SPACE.
PAGE SIXTEEN - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - JULY 11, 1989
Councilman Starkey requested that staff review the possibility
of granting staff flexibility in dealing with infill areas to
eliminate some of the need for formal variances.
~
Mayor Winkler concurred with Councilman Starkey's request, but
stressed the need to insure quality development.
54. Appeal of Planning Commission Conditions of Approval Numbers
~ ~ 27 and 33 for Residential Project 88-6 Revised ~
8 ~ 8 Investments.
George Alongi, Applicant, detailed the conditions being
considered under appeal, and his concerns pertaining to each,
as follow:
21. Landscaping material and labor to be bonded, or other
instrument acceptable by the city for one (1) year.
Final landscape plan shall include additional evergreen
shrubs planted along masonry wall fronting open parking
spaces, and shall be approved by the Community
Development Director or his designee. Street trees shall
not be located within fifteen feet (15') of driveways or
interior sections.
Mr. Alongi felt that with the cost factors involved in the
original landscaping, the builder would maintain the work
whether there was a bond or not. He felt that it was an
insult to require this of a property owner or builder.
26. Dedicate underground water rights to the City (Municipal
Code, Title 16, Chapter 16.52.030).
~
Mr. Alongi expressed concern with deeding the water rights to
the City, when the Water District is the supplier of water to
the area. He does not feel that the City has the right to
require this of the developers. He inquired at what point
the City is transferring the rights to the Water District.
City Attorney Harper clarified that while the Water District
is the provider of water service to the area, the water system
has not yet cleared escrow, so theoretically the water
district would not be entitled to the rights either.
27. Sign agreement for City Landscaping and Street Lighting
District (Resolution Nos. 86-26, 86-27 and 86-36).
Mr. Alongi expressed concern with being required to sign this
document. City Attorney Harper advised that with the Citywide
Lighting and Landscaping District in place, developers would
no longer be required to sign this document.
33. Arrangements for relocation of utility company facilities
(power poles, vaults, etc.) out of the roadway or alley
shall be the responsibility of the property owner or his
agent.
~
Mr. Alongi expressed concern with the excessive costs involved
in relocation of utilities, particularly with regard to the
Edison Company. He felt that the City should' work with the
Edison Company to help bear the burden placed on the
developer. City Attorney Harper advised that while there are
some gray areas with regard to whose responsibility relocation
of utilities is, in most cases litigation would be required to
test the placement of responsibility on the developers.
Staff advised that the conditions in question, are basically
standard conditions required of all development. General
discussion ensued with regard to possibilities for working
PAGE SEVENTEEN - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - JULY 11, 1989
with the Edison Company for alleviation of the excessive cost
factors.

VOTE TO APPROVE SPECIFIC PLAN 89-2 SUBJECT TO THE FINDINGS AND
CONDITIONS LISTED BELOW AS AMENDED INCLUDING A NEW CONDITION #27
WITH REGARD TO PLANNING IN THE ADJACENT AREA;
Findings
1.
Adoption of the Alberhill Ranch Specific Plan is
anticipated to result in several significant adverse
environmental impacts associated with the development of
the site as allowed under the General Plan. These
impacts are described in the Alberhill Ranch
Environmental Impact Report for the Alberhill Ranch
Specific Plan. Exhibit I is a summary of impacts from
the Environmental Impact Report. For each significant
impact, measures are imposed to eliminate or
substantially lessen their effect. Some of these
significant impacts are unavoidable and a statement of
overriding consideration is required. Specific findings
on each significant impact are listed in Exhibit II.
Additionally, a program for monitoring mitigation
measures contained in the Alberhill Ranch Environmental
Impact Report is provided on Exhibit II.
-
2. Adoption of the Alberhill Ranch Specific Plan will result
in significant environmental impacts associated with loss
of habitat, traffic circulation, degradation of air
quality and a substantial contribution to the cumulative
impacts of area-wide urban development which may be
partially mitigated but are anticipated to remain
significant upon development of the site as allowed under
the General Plan. These impacts are therefore found
to be acceptable due to benefits derived by development
under the General Plan, specifically the provision of
quality housing opportunities by the City, the
anticipated increase in local government revenues
generated by project residents and the provision of
significant infrastructure improvement, all of which are
expected to support local commercial and industrial
development efforts and generate measurable benefits to
the local economy and fiscal integrity of City
government.

2. city/Park District Relationship i Provision of Future
Services:
Mayor Winkler detailed previous conversations and joint meetings
with regard to City/Park District cooperation and provision of
services. He commented on the anticipated assistance to
Wildomar which had been anticipated through this cooperation.
He also detailed concerns expressed by L.A.F.C.O. with regard
to overlapping duties and the potential problems with approval
of pending and future annexations. He expressed concern with
providing park and recreation services in a manner which is in
the best interest of the residents of the City. He commented
on the City's ability to maintain existing parks, implement
upgrades to existing parks and to negotiate new parks with the
developers working in the city.
.....
Mayor Winkler advised that he discovered approximately 10 days
ago, after j oint City/District discussions with regard to the_
annexations, that the District had written a letter of
opposition to the Suncal Annexation at Grand and Skylark. On
August 24 the this annexation was continued by L.A.F.C.O. to their
meeting of October 5, 1989, noting the above mentioned objection
and the "conflict" between the City and the District. He '
expressed concern with not knowing why the District had filed this
objection. He further advised that he has met with members of the
Park District and that was to be the purpose of tonight's meeting
to try to resolve the situation. He suggested that strides be
taken to resolve it prior to the L.A.F.C.O. meeting of October 5th
so the annexations can proceed.
Mayor Winkler stressed the following points with regard to the
City/District relations:
1) Problem with overlapping agencies, and the efficiency level
which can be provided. He related this to the recent
unification of the school districts.
2) Park District unable to finance and maintain the parks. He
felt if the City maintains the parks, it should schedule them
as well.
.....
3) OwnerShip of the facilities (parks) carries the liability and
responsibility for them. He feels this is a City obligation.
PAGE THREE - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - AUGUST 29, 1989
4)
5)
City is already providing some services.
.....
After tax transfer, the City will collect $1400-$1600 per
unit while the District would receive only $150 per unit.
6) City has ability to require that development include parks
and open space.
Janice Smith, Elsinore Valley Girl's Softball, advised that
they practice and compete at Butterfield School Park,
maintained by the Park District. She expressed concern that
the grass is brown, the grading has been poor, and rocks on the
playing field. She commented on the danger to the players and
that they are lucky injuries have not resulted. He further
commented that the Girl's Softball league has been maintaining
the infield.
Mr. Smith, Board Member of Elsinore Valley Girl's Softball
League advised that a realignment of the fence around the
playing field had been made, however the rocks had not been
removed from the realigned area and no grass seeding had been
done. He further advised that they had to call the District to
request that the grass be watered; with that it was watered for
about tWQ weeks and then it ceased. He expressed concern that
the dryness of the ground is allowing the grass to die and
rocks to be kicked up. He expressed further 'concern that the
trash cans are not being emptied, and their group had to clean
up for themselves.
~
Mayor Winkler questioned whether we would want more parks in the
County areas, with no means to maintain them, while the City
has the means to maintain the parks. He advised that at this
point, consideration of deannexation from the park district was
the matter of discussion. He further advised that he would
still like to meet with the park district to work out
alternatives, however, we need to tell L.A.F.C.O. that the City
does have the ability to provide and maintain parks.
Councilman Washburn advised that he has met and discussed the
matter of deannexation with Council, staff and District
members. He feels that at this point the City needs to
consider the best arrangement for provision of services to City
residents. He said that while he hopes for an amiable
decision, nonetheless a decision is needed.

agreement on this matter and recommended adoption of the
resolution.

MOVED BY DOMINGUEZ, SECONDED BY BUCK TO ADD RESOLUTIONS 89-45 AND
89-46 TO THE AGENDA.
Leon Strigotte, advised that he was representing the soccer club
of approximately 3,000 members, and they requested that the
City look at taking over Parks and Recreation, as they are not
satisfied with the services being provided. He commented on
the number of participants in their group coming in from the
County area, because there are no services being provided to
them.
Leon Strigotte, further advised that as a resident, he feels
that Wildomar has consistently worked to separate itself from
the City and doesn't feel we should worry about working to
provide them park services, but instead think about our own
PAGE FOUR - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - AUGUST 29, 1989
residents. He feels that the City has kept up with it's
population increase and associated need for services, and the
County residents need to fight their own battles.
Councilman Buck concurred with Mr. Strigotte, and stressed the
need to be concerned with our own residents.
Mayor Winkler agreed that action needs to be taken for the best
interest of our own Community, and two agencies fighting is not ~
healthy for the City or Community. He expressed further
concern with the Park District's objection filed with regard to
the annexation and requested that they reconsider that
position. He suggested that the City's provision of services
would relieve a burden that is currently on the Park District.
Community Services Director Watenpaugh detailed the parks
currently being planned and conceptually considered.
Mayor Winkler commented on the agreement now in place with the
School District and its impact on park facilities.
Councilman Starkey commented that while we will not specifically
be serving Wildomar, the new park being provided by Suncal will
surely be utilized by Wildomar residents as well.
Mayor Winkler expressed willingness to work with the wildomar
representatives where possible.
Charley Johnson, President of the Recreation & Park District
Board, agreed that further joint discussion is necessary to
review concerns on both sides as well as other alternatives.
Councilman Washburn commented that there is always room for
reconsideration.
...
Mayor Winkler expressed the need to communicate the City's
position to L.A.F.C.O. as soon as possible.

A request to divide 455 acres into 669 lots located along
Railroad Canyon Road in the approximate center of the
approximately 1968 acre Cottonwood Specific Plan areas,
approximately one-half mile south of Canyon Lake.
Planning Manager Thornhill detailed the request, including
information with regard to park site acreage and open space
acreage being proposed.
.....
The City Clerk reported no written comments or protests.
Mayor Winkler opened the public hearing at 7:21 p.m. asking
those in favor of Vesting Tentative Tract Map 23848 to speak.
The following person spoke:
Mike Magee, representing the applicant, advised that they are
in support of all staff recommendations, and offered to answer
questions from Council.
Mayor Winkler asked those in opposition to speak. No one
PAGE FOUR - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - OCTOBER 10, 1989
spoke. Hearing no one, the public hearing was closed at 7:22
p.m.
Councilman Buck questioned the open space areas and who ends
up being responsible for the maintenance costs and
liabilities. He suggested that the City consider making these
areas stay the responsibility of a homeowners' association.
Councilman Washburn concurred with Councilman Buck's concerns
with open space, and commented on the following portions of
the proposed conditions of approval:
.....
#3 ADD - ......and/or City Codes.
#8.c. CHANGE - 15 gallon minimum to 24" box trees.
#30 Questioned Planning Commission discussion with
regard to timing of the park. Applicant advised that
the phasing has not been finally set, but this work
is contingent on infrastructure and development
around the park grounds.
#54 Questioned Paragraph #2 and how it would alleviate
problems? Applicant advised that this is a safety
valve, if delays are met in building the road,
Cottonwood Hills Road would be paved enough to
provide ingress and egress to homes already
developed.
#62 Advised that he is pleased with this condition as
it provides a traffic signal at Railroad Canyon
Road and Cottonwood Hills Road.
#69 ADD - All tracts and engineering shall be digitized
by developer per City standards, tapes to be provided ~
prior to issuance of Certificate of Occupancy.
Councilman Dominguez questioned the 24" box tree condition.
Councilman Washburn clarified that this would provide larger,
more mature trees.
Councilman Buck supported the 15 gallon tree, due to the
increased cost of 24" box trees.
Dr. Maw, Superintendent L.E.U.S.D. advised that an agreement
has not yet been reached between the School District and
Pardee Construction for school mitigation. Washburn clarified
that Condition #16 addresses this issue. Winkler agreements
must be made with school district per the specific plan. Mr.
Magee clarified that agreement had not been negotiated because
until the annexation was approved by L.A.F.C.O., in essence, a
project did not officially exist. They will now pursue
negotiations with the school district, and mitigate school
impacts prior to recording of phase 2 maps, or the City can
take control and decide mitigation measures.
Mayor Winkler questioned whether maintenance of open space
areas would be financed through the Street Lighting and
Landscaping District. City Manager Molendyk explained the ~
billings to that area would be increased to include this open
space portion and this would be the means to finance the
maintenance.
Further Council discussion focused on maintenance, control and
liability factors with regard to open space, and prior Council
action toward control of open space. City Attorney Harper
PAGE FIVE - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - OCTOBER 10, 1989
clarified the responsibility and liability factors.

Numbers 17 and 24 for a Minor Design Review of an Accessory
Structure at 17561 Sunnyslope Avenue.

relating to park in-lieu fees; and requested that Council
consider the same on Condition 24. He explained that the
addition being proposed is a total of 616 square feet with all
other work being only interior remodeling. He expressed

being assessed are nearly as costly as the addition itself.

not allow any flexibility for staff to waive this type of fee.

remodel. It was decided that all of the remodeling was

Re: Volunteer citizen Patrol
This letter is in response to yours of this date,
subject above. We understand that the citizen Patrol
will be an independent group, not subject to control by
either the city or the county. In view of this fact we
b~lic~J'a it would be un;;;isa for the cit:ito. a.pprove o'r
authorize their activities. To. do so could involve the
city in liability claims arising from alleged negligent
operation of the Patrol.
Also, since auto liability follows ownership of the
vehicles the city should not permit the use of vehicles
or equipment by other than trained and supervised city
employees.

We trust this information responds to your immediate
questions.
Very Truly Yours,

37. West Lake Elsinore Assessment District Environmental Impact
RePOrt 88-2 = RMG Enqineering/The Keith Companies.
Draft Environmental Impact Report to consider the formation of
the Wc~t La1to Elsinore As~aS3mant Dist~i~t, ~ ~p~~i~l ~i~t~i=~
to provide utilities and related infrastructure improvements
to the study area, as well as related follow-up on residential
development which will be facilitated by the utility and
infrastructure improvements; the project encompasses
approximately 1,127 acres of land generally bounded by
Lakeshore Drive and Mountain Avenue on the north, Machado
Street on the east, Alvarado Street and its extension on the
south, and the Santa Ana Mountains to the West.
This public hearing was taken out of order, because it impacts
items 34, 35 and 36.
Planning Manager Thornhill detailed the plan for improvements
to be completed and advised that while the impacts are
significant the improvements will help to defray that impact.
The City Clerk reported one written comment which read as
follows:
Dear Mayor Winkler and City Council:
-
In reviewing the Environmental Impact Report prepared for
the West Elsinore Assessment District (EIR 88-2) I came
upon several items of concern.
I would first like to bring to your attention mitigation
measures for the fire protection in the area. On page
1-25 Item #6 the report indicates that the fire station
should be fully operational before the issuance of the
loooth Certificate of Occupancy. I would request that
the Council address this further. Past discussions have
indicated the immediate need for a fire station in the
West Lake Elsinore area. I think it would be appropriate
to condition all tentative maps in this area with
specific phasing requirements for the fire protection.
See attached excerpt from EIR 88-2.
-
Flood control mitigation measures have been one of the
major concerns and issues in regards to development in
this area. On page 3-64 storm drain lines are discussed
and it indicated that "underground portions of line Band
C are sized to carry the runoff generated by a 10 year
storm and that during a 100 year storm event, the
additional flow would be carried in the street section
above the facility." This must be an error, all
underground facilities must be sized to 100 year storm
requirements to meet Riverside County Flood Control
standards.
The material covered in this report is extensive and
takes many hours to review. I strongly urge council and
staff to make themselves very familiar with the
information provided so that if there is a need for
further detail or addition mitigation those items will be
included in Conditions of Approval for all tentative
tract maps in this area.
PAGE TEN - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - DECEMBER 12, 1989
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Michael priske
15015 Le Gaye Street
Lake Elsinore, CA 92330

Mayor Winkler asked those in opposition to speak. Hearing no
one, the public hearing was closed at 7:57.
Councilman Washburn commented on the need for this assessment
district to ensure necessary infrastructure improvements. He
questioned item #10 on Page 10 relating to and the designation
of not significant. Planning Manager Thornhill advised that
under C.E.Q.A. regulations it is not significant.
Councilman Washburn inquired whether the comments returned had
been incorporated in this document. The.Consultant advised
that they were included by reference only at this point, but
would incorporated in the final document. He further inquired
about the mitigation monitoring plan and if this was a new
requirement. Staff confirmed that it is a new requirement.
Councilman Washburn questioned if the park facilities time
frame of five years was realistic. Staff confirmed if the
mining operations are concluded in 3-1/2 years as anticipated
the five year time frame is accurate.
Councilman Washburn questioned the timing/phasing of the fire
station and if it could be sooner than proposed. John
Mandrell, representing RMG Engineering, advised that once the
bonds are sold the funding would be available, however the
1000 home recommendation came from the County Fire Department.
Planning Manager Thornhill clarified that this is only the
E.I.R. and the fire station issue could be resolved at the
hearing for the Assessment District.
-
City Attorney Harper further clarified that the Flood Control
Improvements would be required to meet standards of the
Riverside County Flood Control District.
MOVED BY WASHBURN, SECONDED BY BUCK AND CARRIED BY UNANIMOUS VOTE

one the public hearing was closed at 8:20 p.m.
Community Development Director Gunderman advised that the
access request had been discussed and it was felt that too
many traffic circulation and safety problems existed.
Councilman Washburn inquired where the recreation trail would
be on the map. Planning Manager Thornhill advised that it
had not been included in the plan because it would most likely
end up on the adjacent property.
Mr. Jim Withrow, owner of Lot 6 further requested Council
consideration of the Grand Avenue access request and detailed
his proposed operation and the constraints placed on him by
the County.
Councilman Dominguez requested that staff work with Mr.
