meets the standards adopted by the City of Temecula designed for the protection of the public
health, safety and welfare.
C. An Initial Study was prepared for the project and it has determined that
although the proposed project could have a significant effect on the environment, these effects are
not considered to be significant due to mitigation measures contained in the project design and in
the Conditions of Approval added to the project.

environmental damage or substantially and unavoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat.

installed, and the site is within an urban, commercially developed area and can therefore be
considered infill. There are no native species of plants, no unique, rare, threatened or endangered
species of plants, no native vegetation on or adjacent to the site. Further, there is no indication
that any wildlife species exist, or that the site serves as a migration corridor. A DeMinimus
impact finding can be made for this project.

indicates that although the proposed project could have a significant impact on the environment,
there will not be a significant effect in this case because the mitigation measures described in the
Conditions of Approval have been added to the project, and a Mitigated Negative Declaration,
therefore, is hereby adopted.
