standards based on the number of bedrooms per unit for multi-family development
projects. The remaining proposed amendments to the Temecula Municipal Code are

consistent with the general plan and all applicable provisions contained therein.
The proposed parking standards for multi-family residential developments will
ensure adequate parking is available to residents and visitors to the City when future
multi-family development proposals are reviewed by City staff through the entitlement
process, thus maintaining the supply of adequate parking residents and visitors. The
remaining proposed amendments to the Temecula Municipal Code are minor
clarifications and typographical edits and do not result in an inconsistency between the

policy changes, clarifications, and typographical corrections, which do not result in a
