Section 1. Procedural Findings. The Planning Commission of the City of
Temecula does hereby find, determ ine and declare that:
A. On December 2, 2020, Reylenn Properties filed Planning Application: No. P A20-
1371, a Development Plan in a mann er in accord with the City of Temecula General Plan and
Development Code.
B. The Project was processed including, but not limited to a public notice, in the time
and manner prescribed by State and local law.
C. The Plann ing Commission, at a regular meeting, considered the Project and
environm ental review on June 1, 2022, at a duly noticed public hearing as prescribed by law, at
which time the City staff and interested persons had an opportunity to and did testify either in
support or in opposition to this matter.
D. At the conclusion of the Plann ing Commission hearing and after due consideration
of the testimony, the Planning Commission approved Planning Application No. PA20-1371,
subject to and based upon the findings set forth hereunder.
E. All legal preconditions to the adoption of the Resolution have occurred.
Section 2. Further Findings. The Planning Comm ission, in approving the Application
hereby finds, determ ines and declares that in accordance with Temecula Municipal Code Section
17.05.010.F (Development Plan):
A. The proposed use is in conformance with the General Plan for Temecula and with
all applicable requirements of State law and other Ordinances of the City.
The proposed project consists of the construction of a multifamily residential community.
The General Plan and Harveston Specific Plan allow for a multifamily residential
community at the project site. Therefore, the project is consistent with the General Plan
for Temecula and the Harveston Specific Plan. The project, as conditioned, is also
consistent with other applicable requirements of State law and local Ordinances, including
the C aliforn ia E nvironm ental Q uality A ct (CE QA), the C ityw ide D esign G uidelines, and
Fire and Building codes.
B. The overall development of the land is designed for the protection of the public
health, safety, and general welfare.
The overall design of the project, including the site, building, parking, circulation and
other associated site improvements, is consistent with, and intended to protect the health
and safety of those working and living in an around the site as the project is consistent with
the General Plan, City Wide Design Guidelines, Harveston Specific Plan and Development
Code. The project has been reviewed for, and as conditioned, has been found to be
consistent with all applicable policies, guidelines, standards and regulations intended to
ensure that the development will be constructed and function in a manner consistent with
the public health, safety, and welfare.
Section 3. Environm ental Findings. The Plann ing Comm ission hereby makes the
following environm ental findings and determ inations in conn ection with the approval of the
Development Plan:
A. In accordance with the California Environm ental Quality Act, it has been
determ ined that no further environm ental review of the proposed project is required (Section
15182, Projects Pursuant to a Specific Plan and Section 15162, Subsequent EIRs and Negative
Declarations);
1. On August 14, 2001, the City Council certified the Program Environm ental Impact
Report for the Harveston Specific Plan (SCH #99041033). Amendment No. 1 to the
Harveston Specific Plan (SP 13) was approved on August 26, 2003 by the adoption of
Resolution No. 03-110 . A Subsequent Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) was
prepared and certified on December 1, 2020 in conn ection with the second amendment
to the Harveston Specific Plan that allowed for the creation of the residential overlay
zone. The proposed project has been determ ined to be consistent with the previously
adopted Harveston SEIR and no further environmental review is required. Staff has
determ ined that the project is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines
Section 15182 as the proposed residential development is in conform ity with the
Harveston Specific Plan, as amended. (Section 15162, Subsequent EIRs and Negative
Declarations). Staff has reviewed the SEIR and has determ ined that the proposed
project does not require the preparation of a subsequent Environm ental Impact Report
as none of the conditions described in Section 15162 of the CEQA Guidelines (14 Cal.
Code Regs. 15162) exist. Specifically, there are no substantial changes proposed by
the proposed project that will require major revisions of the previous SEIR due to the
involvement of new significant environm ental effects or a substantial increase in the
severity of previously identified significant effects; no substantial changes have
occurred with respect to the circumstances under which the proposed project are
undertaken that will require major revisions of the previous SEIR due to the
involvement of new significant environm ental effects or a substan tial increase in the
severity of previously identified significant effects; and there is no new inform ation of
substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the
exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous SEIR was adopted, showing
that: (a) the proposed project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in
the SEIR; (b) there are significant effects previously examined that will be substantially
more severe than shown in the SEIR; ( c) there are mitigation measures or alternatives
previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially
reduce one or more significant effects of the proposed project, but the City declines to
adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or (d) mitigation measures or alternatives
which are considerably different from those analyzed in the SEIR would substantially
reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the City declines to
adopt the mitigation measure or alternative. The application for a development plan
for a 349 unit apartment community is consistent with the project that was analyzed by
the SEIR. The proposed project is required to meet all requirements and mitigation
contained in SEIR.
Section 4. Conditions. The Planning Commission of the City of Temecula
approves Planning Application No. PA20-1371, a Development Plan to allow for the construction
of a 349-unit apartment community built on 15.1 acres located at the terminus of Date Street,
approximately 900 feet south of Ynez Road., subject to the Conditions of Approval set forth on
Exhibit A, attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED by the City of Temecula Planning
Commission this 1st day of June, 2022. a /ii#

constructed w ith fireplaces or hearths.
24. Fiscal Im pact A nalysis C om pliance. The Project is required to address im pacts to the C ity's
budget as a result of the increased costs to the C ity of pro viding public safety and other
m unicipal serv ices to the Project area substantially exceeding the m unicipal revenue
generated from the Project ("C ity Serv ices Deficit"). The C ity has received a Fiscal Im pact
A nalysis, dated Septem ber, 2021 ("FIA "), docum enting the C ity Serv ices Deficit. The ow ners
of the property w ithin the Project, and their successors in interest, shall pay the C ity a
m inim um sum of O ne Hundred Ten Dollars ($110.00) per Occupied Residential Property each
year as m itigation for the City Serv ices Deficit, w ith an increase in such paym ent each fiscal
year in an am ount of tw elve point eight percent (12.8%) of the previous year's paym ent, as
such increase m ay be adjusted as part of the yearly assessm ent or special tax levy as
pro vided in a funding m echanism that m ay be approved by the C ity. "O ccupied Residential
Pro perty" means an assessor's parcel w ithin the project for building perm its for residential
construction have been issued as m ay be further defined in the C ity appro ved funding
m echanism . Five years after the date of the first certificate of occupancy or final inspection is
issued for a hom e in the Project and every five years after that, the ow ners of the properties
may request that the C ity re evaluate the yearly paym ents fo r the C ity Serv ices Deficit and
prepare an updated FIA to analyze the continuing im pacts of the Project to the C ity's budget.
The cost of the updated FIA shall be paid for by the ow ners of the properties w ithin the
Project.
O w ner and its successors to the pro perty w ithin the Project m ay fulfill this recurring financial
obligation to the C ity thro ugh a com m unity facilities district established by the C ity pursuant to
the Mello Roos C om m unity Facilities District A ct of 1982, G overn m ent C ode Section 53311, et
seq., or other appropriated financing m echanism appro ved by the C ity; pro vided, how ever, the
obligation of each ow ner and their successors to pay the C ity Serv ices Deficit paym ent under
this C ondition rem ains an obligation of the ow ner and its successor s regardless of the
financing mechanism used to pay it and regardless of w hether there is a financing m echanism
to pay it.

approval by the Director of Community Development.
Page 5 of 23
27. Archaeological/Cultural Resources Grading Note. The following shall be included in the Notes
Section of the Grading Plan: "If at any time during excavation/construction of the site,
archaeological/cultural resources, or any artifacts or other objects which reasonably appears
to be evidence of cultural or archaeological resource are discovered, the property owner shall
immediately advise the City of such and the City shall cause all further excavation or other
disturbance of the affected area to immediately cease. The Director of Community
Development at his/her sole discretion may require the property owner to deposit a sum of
money it deems reasonably necessary to allow the City to consult and/or authorize an
independent, fully qualified specialist to inspect the site at no cost to the City, in order to
assess the significance of the find. Upon determining that the discovery is not an
archaeological/ cultural resource, the Planning Director shall notify the property owner of such
determination and shall authorize the resumption of work. Upon determining that the
discovery is an archaeological/cultural resource, the Planning Director shall notify the property
owner that no further excavation or development may take place until a mitigation plan or
other corrective measures have been approved by the Planning Director."
28. Cultural Resources Treatment Agreement. The developer is required to enter into a Cultural
Resources Treatment Agreement with the Pechanga Tribe. The agreement shall be in place
prior to issuance of a grading permit. To accomplish this, the applicant should contact the
Pechanga Tribe no less than 30 days and no more than 60 days prior to issuance of a grading
permit. This Agreement will address the treatment and disposition of cultural resources, the
designation, responsibilities, and participation of professional Pechanga Tribal monitors during
grading, excavation and ground disturbing activities; project grading and development
scheduling; terms of compensation for the monitors; and treatment and final disposition of any
cultural resources, sacred sites, and human remains discovered onsite. The Pechanga
monitor's authority to stop and redirect grading will be exercised in consultation with the
project archaeologist in order to evaluate the significance of any potential resources
discovered on the property. Pechanga and archaeological monitors shall be allowed to
monitor all grading, excavation and groundbreaking activities, and shall also have the limited
authority to stop and redirect grading activities should an inadvertent cultural resource be
identified.
29. Discoverv of Cultural Resources. The following shall be included in the Notes Section of the
Grading Plan: "If cultural resources are discovered during the project construction
(inadvertent discoveries), all work in the area of the find shall cease, and the qualified
archaeologist and the Pechanga monitor shall investigate the find, and make
recommendations as to treatment."
30. Archaeological Monitoring Notes. The following shall be included in the Notes Section of the
Grading Plan: "A qualified archaeological monitor will be present and will have the authority to
stop and redirect grading activities, in consultation with the Pechanga Tribe and their
designated monitors, to evaluate the significance of any archaeological resources discovered
on the property."
31. Tribal Monitoring Notes. The following shall be included in the Notes Section of the Grading
Plan: "A Pechanga Tribal monitor will be present and will have the authority to stop and
redirect grading activities, in consultation with the project archaeologist and their designated
monitors, to evaluate the significance of any potential resources discovered on the property."
32. Relinquishment of Cultural Resources. The following shall be included in the Notes Section of
the Grading Plan: "The landowner agrees to relinquish ownership of all cultural resources,
including all archaeological artifacts that are found on the project area, to the Pechanga Tribe
for proper treatment and disposition."
Page 6 of 23
33. Preservation of Sacred Sites. The following shall be included in the Notes Section of the
Grading Plan: "All sacred sites are to be avoided and preserved."
34. MSHCP Pre-Construction Survey. Within three days of the start of any ground disturbing
activity during the nesting season (February 1 to August 31 for songbirds; January 15 to
August 31 for raptors), a qualified biologist shall conduct a survey to determine if there are
active nests within the onsite trees and vegetation. If an active nest is not found, no biological
monitor is required. If active nests are detected, a minimum buffer (e.g., 300 feet for songbirds
or 500 feet for raptors) around the nest shall be delineated and flagged, and no construction
activity shall occur within the buffer area until a qualified biologist determines the nesting
species have fledged and is no longer active or the nest has failed. The buffer may be
modified (i.e., increased or decreased) and/or other recommendations proposed (e.g., a
temporary soundwall) as determined appropriate by the qualified biologist to minimize
impacts. The qualified biologist shall monitor the removal of onsite trees and vegetation. Nest
buffer distance will be based on species, specific location of the nest, the intensity of
construction activities, existing disturbances unrelated to the project and other factors.
35. Burrowing Owl Grading Note. The following shall be included in the Notes Section of the
Grading Plan: "No grubbing/clearing of the site shall occur prior to scheduling the pre grading
meeting with Public Works. All project sites containing suitable habitat for burrowing owls,
whether owls were found or not, require a 14 day preconstruction survey that shall be
conducted within 14 days prior to ground disturbance to avoid direct take of burrowing owls. If
the results of the survey indicate that no burrowing owls are present on site, then the project
may move forward with grading, upon Planning Division approval. If burrowing owls are found
to be present or nesting on site during the preconstruction survey, then the following
recommendations must be adhered to: Exclusion and relocation activities may not occur
during the breeding season, which is defined as March 1 through August 31, with the following
exception: From March 1 through March 15 and from August 1 through August 31 exclusion
and relocation activities may take place if it is proven to the City and appropriate regulatory
agencies (if any) that egg laying or chick rearing is not taking place. This determination must
be made by a qualified biologist." If construction is delayed or suspended for more than 30
days after the survey, the area shall be resurveyed.
36. Rough Grading Plans. A copy of the Rough Grading Plans shall be submitted and approved
by the Planning Division.
37. Burrowing Owl Study Submittal. A Burrowing Owl Study shall be submitted prior to plan check
approval for the grading permit. The pre construction clearance survey shall be conducted
within 14 days of ground disturbance to document the continued absence of burrowing owl
from the project site as well as the buffer areas. If construction is delayed or suspended for
more than 30 days after the clearance survey, the project site as well as the buffer areas shall
be resurveyed.
38. Sensitivity Training. Prior to any ground disturbing activities associated with the Project, the
qualified archaeologist shall conduct cultural resources sensitivity training for all construction
personnel. Construction personnel shall be informed of the types of archaeological resources
that may be encountered, and of the proper procedures to be enacted in the event of an
inadvertent discovery of archaeological resources or human remains. The Applicant shall
ensure that construction personnel are made available for and attend the training and retain
documentation demonstrating attendance.
Page 7 of 23
39. Native Sediments. If grading activities are proposed within intact native sediments on the
Project Site which are anticipated to be 10 feet in depth or greater, the qualified archaeologist
shall monitor ground disturbing activities. If cultural resources are discovered, the qualified
archaeologist shall have the authority to stop and redirect grading in the immediate area of a
find in order to evaluate the find and determine the appropriate next steps in consultation with
the City of Temecula and the Pechanga Tribe. During the course of monitoring, if the qualified
archaeologist can demonstrate based on observations of subsurface conditions that the level
of monitoring should be reduced, increased, or discontinued, the archaeologist, in consultation
with the Applicant and the City of Temecula may adjust the level of monitoring, as warranted.
40. Previously Graded Sediments. If grading activities occur within previously graded sediments
and inadvertent discoveries of subsurface cultural resources are discovered, the construction
contractor shall suspend grading within 100 feet of the find until the qualified archaeologist
evaluates the find and determines the appropriate next steps in consultation with the City of
Temecula and the Pechanga Tribe.
41. Paleontological Sensitivity Training. Prior to start of earth moving activities that are proposed
to extend into intact native sediments which are anticipated to be 10 feet in depth or greater
on the Project Site, the qualified paleontologist shall conduct pre construction worker
paleontological resources sensitivity training. This training shall include information on what
types of paleontological resources could be encountered during excavations, what to do in
case an unanticipated discovery is made by a worker, and laws protecting paleontological
resources. All construction personnel shall be informed of the possibility of encountering
fossils and instructed to immediately inform the construction foreman or supervisor if any
bones or other potential fossils are unexpectedly unearthed in an area where a
paleontological monitor is not present.
42. Qualified Paleontologist. Prior to the start of earth moving activities, each project applicant
shall retain a qualified paleontologist defined as one meeting SVP standards (Society for
Vertebrate Paleontology, 2010) to attend any pre grade construction meetings to determine
when and where excavations extend into intact native sediments which are anticipated to be
10 feet in depth or greater on the Project Site Working with each project applicant and the
construction crew, the qualified paleontologist shall determine a paleontological monitoring
schedule.
The qualified paleontologist, or a paleontological monitor working under the direct supervision
of the qualified paleontologist, shall monitor all ground disturbing activity that are proposed to
extend into intact native sediments which are anticipated to be 10 feet in depth or greater on
the Project Site. The location, duration, and timing of monitoring shall be determined by the
qualified paleontologist designated for the Project in consultation with each project applicant
and City and shall be based on a review of geologic maps and grading plans. During the
course of monitoring, if the qualified paleontologist can demonstrate based on observations of
subsurface conditions that the level of monitoring should be reduced, increased, or
discontinued, the paleontologist, in consultation with each project applicant and City of
Temecula may adjust the level of monitoring, as warranted.
Monitoring activities shall be documented in a Paleontological Resources Monitoring Report to
be prepared by the qualified paleontologist at the completion of construction and shall be
provided to the City of Temecula and filed with the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles
County within six (6) months of grading completion for each individual project on the Project
Site.

165. Public Telephones. Any public telephones located on the exterior of the buildings shall be
placed in a well-lit, highly visible area, and installed with a "call-out only" feature to deter
loitering. This feature is not required for public telephones installed within the interior of the

Section 22511.8 of the California Vehicle Code.
167. Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design. Crime prevention through environmental
design as developed by the National Crime Prevention Institute (NCPI) supports the concept
that "the proper design and effective use of the built environment can lead to a reduction in the
fear and incidence of crime and an improvement in the quality of life." The nine primary
strategies that support this concept are included as conditions below: a. Provide clear border
definition of controlled space. Examples of border definition may include fences, shrubbery or
signs in exterior areas. Within a building, the arrangement of furniture and color definition can
serve as a means of identifying controlled space. b. Provide clearly marked transitional zones.
Persons need to be able to identify when they are moving from public to semi-public to private
space. c. Gathering or congregating areas to be located or designated in locations where
there is good surveillance and access control. d. Place safe activities in unsafe locations.
Safe activities attract normal users to a location and subsequently render the location less
attractive to abnormal users due to observation and possible intervention. e. Place unsafe
activities in safe locations. Placing unsafe activities in areas of natural surveillance or
controlled access will help overcome risk and make the users of the areas feel safer. f.
Redesign the use of space to provide natural barriers. Separate activities that may conflict
with each other (outdoor basketball court and children's play area, for example) by distance,
natural terrain or other functions to avoid such conflict. g. Improve scheduling of space. The
timing in the use of space can reduce the risk for normal users and cause abnormal users to
be of greater risk of surveillance and intervention. h. Redesign space to increase the
perception of natural surveillance. Abnormal users need to be award of the risk of detection
and possible intervention. Windows and clear lines-of-sight serve to provide such a
perception of surveillance. i. Overcome distance and isolation. This strategy may be
accomplished through improved communications (portable two-way radios, for example) and
design efficiencies, such as the location of restrooms in a public building.
168. Questions Regarding Conditions. Any questions regarding these conditions should be
directed to the Temecula Police Department Crime Prevention and Plans Unit at (951)
695-2773.
