BACKGROUND SUMMARY
On May 30, 2018, Angela Rose, on behalf of Back Alley Escape, submitted Planning Application
number PA18-0771. The application is for a Conditional Use Permit to allow for a facility
comprised of escape rooms and a laser maze within the Vail Ranch Headquarters site. Staff has
worked with the applicant to ensure that all concerns have been addressed, and the applicant
concurs with the recommended Conditions of Approval.
ANALYSIS
The Conditional Use Permit (CUP) will allow for the operation of an escape room facility with a
laser maze component. The project is located within suites 102 and 103 of the historic Machine
Barn at the Vail Ranch Headquarters. Total area of the facility is approximately 2,428 square
feet. No modifications are proposed to the exterior structure. Food and alcohol will not be
provided to patrons.
Hours of operation for the facility are by appointment only on Mondays and Tuesdays. Hours
from Wednesday through Sunday are 9:00 A.M. to 12:00 A.M. Four rooms will be designated as
escape rooms and can accommodate between two and eight people depending on the size of
the room. One room will contain the laser maze. This room will accommodate two people.
The Director of Community Development has determined that escape rooms shall be
considered a recreation facility under Municipal Code Table 17.08.030, Sports and Recreation
Facility category, which requires a CUP within the Highway Tourist (HT) zoning district.
LEGAL NOTICING REQUIREMENTS
Notice of the public hearing was published in the U -T San Diego on August 30, 2018 and mailed
to the property owners within the required 600 -foot radius.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project has been
deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review (Section 15301, Class 1,
Existing Facilities)
The proposed conditional use will operate within an existing facility. No site expansion is
proposed for the escape room business. Conditions of Approval have been implemented to
ensure the project does not cause adverse impacts to the surrounding area.
FINDINGS
Conditional Use Permit (Section 17.04.010.E)
The proposed conditional use is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code.
As proposed, the facility will operate as an establishment with the primary purpose of an escape
room business. The proposed use is consistent with the City of Temecula General Plan and the
Highway Tourist (HT) designation. HT zones allow sports and recreation facilities upon the
approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and development in
adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional use will not adversely
affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures.
The facility is proposed in an existing historic commercial building within an HT zoning district.
The proposed conditional use is consistent with all requirements of the Development Code and
with the surrounding commercial uses and will therefore be compatible with the nature,
condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures, and the proposed
conditional use will not adversely affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures.
The site for a proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the
yards, walls, fences, parking loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping, and other development
features prescribed in the Development Code and required by the Planning Commission or City
Council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood.
The development on the project site meets all of the requirements of the Development Code.
Therefore, the site for the proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to
accommodate the yards, walls, fences, buffer areas, landscaping, and other development
features prescribed in this Development Code and required by the Planning Commission or City
Council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood.
The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety and general
welfare of the community.
As conditioned, the project will meet all requirements of the Development Code and General
Plan which provided safeguards for the health, safety and general welfare of the community.
Therefore, the project is not anticipated to be detrimental to the health, safety and general
welfare of the community. 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.
The decision to approve, conditionally approve, or deny the application for a Conditional Use
Permit be based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole before the Planning
Commission or City Council on appeal.
The decision to conditionally approve the application for a Conditional Use Permit has been
based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole before the Director of
Community Development.

General Plan and Development Code.
B. The Application was processed including, but not limited to a public notice,
in the time and manner prescribed by State and local law.
C. The Director of Community Development, at a regular meeting,
considered the Application and environmental review on September 13, 2018, at a duly
noticed public hearing as prescribed by law, at which time the City staff and interested

the testimony, the Director of Community Development approved Planning Application
No. PA18-0771 subject to Conditions of Approval, after finding that the project proposed

Section 2. Further Findings. The Director of Community Development, in
approving Planning Application No. PA18-0771, hereby makes the following findings as
required by Section 17.04.010.E).
A. The proposed conditional use is consistent with the General Plan and the
Development Code;
As proposed, the facility will operate as an establishment with the primary
purpose of an escape room business. The proposed use is consistent with the
City of Temecula General Plan and the Highway Tourist (HT) designation. HT
zones allow sports and recreation facilities upon the approval of a Conditional
Use Permit.
B. The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and
development in adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional
use will not adversely affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures.
The facility is proposed in an existing historic commercial building within an HT
zoning district. The proposed conditional use is consistent with all requirements
of the Development Code and with the surrounding commercial uses and will
therefore be compatible with the nature, condition and development of adjacent
uses, buildings and structures, and the proposed conditional use will not
adversely affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures.
C. The site for a proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to
accommodate the yards, walls, fences, parking loading facilities, buffer areas,
landscaping, and other development features prescribed in this Development Code and
required by the Planning Commission or City Council in order to integrate the use with
other uses in the neighborhood.
The development on the project site meets all of the requirements of the
Development Code. Therefore, the site for the proposed conditional use is
adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, walls, fences, buffer
areas, landscaping, and other development features prescribed in this
Development Code and required by the Planning Commission or City Council in
order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood.
D. The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health,
safety and general welfare of the community.
As conditioned, the project will meet all requirements of the Development Code
and General Plan which provided safeguards for the health, safety and general
welfare of the community. Therefore, the project is not anticipated to be
detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare of the community. 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.
E. The decision to approve, conditionally approve, or deny the application for
a Conditional Use Permit be based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a
whole before the Planning Commission or City Council on appeal.

with the approval of the Conditional Use Permit Application:
A. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed
project has been deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review

STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS
Section C: Statement of Operations 5/15/2018
Tri Valley Entertainment, LLC proposes to open Back Alley Escape, an immersive entertainment
business. The location for this business is in Vail Ranch Headquarters:
32125 B Temecula Parkway
Temecula, CA 92592
Our intended hours of operation are as follows:
Monday - Tuesday by appointment
Wednesday - Sunday - 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 a.m..
Immersive entertainment is a modern form of entertainment that is comprised of interactive
content used to engage the audience and it contains personality driven entertainment. The
audience is, in essence immersed in an alternate reality. The experiences that clients will initially
be offered will be escape rooms and a laser maze.
Escape rooms have become a popular outing for young and old. Participants are presented with
a setting and problem that they need to "solve" or "escape" in a given period of time, typically an
hour. In their pursuits they are given various clues that they must put together to achieve their
goal. We will have the space for up to five of these rooms. We will begin with two and expand
as possible. Each room will house between 2 and 10 participants, depending upon the particular
game and room. We plan to offer a variety of experiences from kid -friendly to PG -13.
The strategic nature of the escape room business makes it a great team building event for local
business. We will have a corporate meeting room for such events and structure events to support
team building and strategizing. In addition, we will host birthday parties and events for larger
groups, designing unique challenges as needed.
Our laser room will be a quick challenge where participants move through the maze, avoiding
the laser beams, to obtain the fastest time. Breaking the beam will end the challenge.
As technology changes so will our rooms. Possibilities include virtual reality and 4D adventures.
At no time will participants actually be locked into a room and rooms will be monitored with
surveillance at all times.
Customers will book rooms through an online booking system on the website, or by contacting
us personally.
We hope to employ between 5 and 20 people to manage the flow of people, reset of rooms, and
bookkeeping, although this number could increase as business is established. Our hope is to
have between 66 and 200 customers on any given day. Guests will be managed by timing the
rooms so that customers are not arriving for multiple rooms at the same time.
Surrounding businesses are aware of the nature of the business, as well as the hours, and are in
support of the concept. There are approximately 1,100 parking spaces for customers of Vail
Headquarters, more than adequate for our needs.
Following is a floor plan that gives a layout of the rooms within the designated building.
